About 50 people attended theforum, the first of a series co-sponsored by the Faculty Senate and the Associated Students under the general heading "Western As It Enters the 21st Century." The panel consisted of faculty membersHarry Ritter, history; Kenneth Hoover, political science; and Constance Faulkner, Fairhaven, as wellas students Michael Dumas, A.S. Social Issues coordinator, and Erin Middlewood. Before opening thefloor to the comments of the audience, each panel member spent about five minutes summarizingtheir views on the issues. An article called "Free Speech for Campus Bigots?" by John Wiener from theJan. 26 issue of The Nation had been distributed to the panelists as a suggested starting point for thediscussion. The article dealt with the rationale for and against codes which have been instituted at anumber of American universities prohibiting verbal harassment of racial minorities, women, homosexualsand other minorities. One incident discussed in the article was the statement of a student in aUniversity of Michigan classroom discussion in 1989. The student said he considered homosexualityadisease treatable with therapy. Hewascharged in a university disciplinary hearing with violating theschool's harassment code. A district court judge eventually ruled in Sept. 1990 that the university'srules violated the First Photo by Jonathan Burton Panel members for the "Freedom of Speech in theClassroom for Faculty and Students" forum included (from left to right), Harry Ritter, Erin Middlewood,Kenneth Hoover, Michael Dumas and Constance Faulkner. Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. Thearticle drew distinctions between broad and narrow codes which have been adopted by variousuniversities. The broadest codes, such as the one instituted at the University of Michigan, prohibit arelatively wide range of actions; the University of Michigan's prohibited "any behavior, verbal orphysical, that stigmatizes or victimizes an individual on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, sex,sexual orientation, creed, national orientation, ancestry, age, marital status, handicap or Vietnam-eraveteran $1810$." Codes based on the narrow approach prohibit only the most threat-enmg andinflammatory casesof face-to- face abusive speech, according to the article â€” an attempt to deal withthe concernsofcivilUbertarians. Some scholars contend there is a legal basis for these kinds of rulesunder the "fighting words" doctrine created by the Supreme Court in the l942caseof Chaplinsky v. NewHampshire. The comments of most of those present at the forum indicated that while sensitivity isneeded, freedom of speech considerations outweigh any rationale for instituting such codes at Western.No one actually endorsed any specific reforms which should be enacted by the Associated Students,Faculty Senate or administration. "I believe that the university is an institution for the expansion ofknowledge, and that this is only possible through free discourse," Middlewood said.

Underrepresented groups include ethnic minorities, people from backgrounds of povertyand people who are gay or interested in gay rights, said Rand Jack, faculty member at Fairhaven andone of the leaders of the program. The program got its spark after Washington State Supreme CourtJustice Charles Z. Smith spoke on campus about the lack of ethnic minorities in the legal system,Jack said. Various law schools encouraged Fairhaven to begin with the program. Jack said.Encouragement also came from within. Fairhaven Dean Marie Eaton and Western Provost LarryDeLorme were both very supportive, he added. The program officially kicked off Sept. 21, when JusticeSmith led the first seminar. "Since all of this was his fault, he had to get it started off," Jack saidjokingly. "There is no other program like this we know of," said Lorraine Bannai, Fairhaven facultymember and the other leader of the program. Bannai was hired last spring specifically for this program. "I've taught in the law-school environment for the last 10 years," she said. "We are delighted. She wasthe best of all possible applicants (for this job)," Jack said. The program contributes to the goal ofdiversifying the legal profession, something that really needs to happen, Bannai said. It encouragesparticipation from ethnic minorities and the disadvantaged. It exposes them to the legal profession andequips them with the skills they will need to enter and successfully complete law school, she said. Theprogram is a preparation for law school. It is a junior-senior program. To enroll, students must havecompleted or nearly completed their GURs. The program is law-related and skill-related, Bannai said.Students will receive instruction on the American legal system and the American political system. Theywill be exposed to legal issues relating to minorities. Students will also receive instruction in writingskills, verbal communication skills and analytic skillsâ€”all of which are important to the practice of law.Fifteen students are enrolled in the program, Bannai said. These IS will stay together over the next twoyears. "The students are very committed and energetic, hard-working, they want to achieve goals andwant to be vehicles for social change. They want to go to law school," Bannai said. "(The program) isreally exciting," she said. "It's exciting to be working with undergraduates." Since the program is new,a few things remain up in the air. It is not known yet if a new group will enter the program next year,Bannai said. It will depend on the success of the program and the availability of resources, Jack said."We have no control over resources," Jack said. "We will have to start addressing this question soon." ButBannai said this question does not change the commitment to the IS students currently enrolled.They will be here for the next two years, Bannai said. "That commitment has been made." "We hope(this) can be a model program for other schools to pattern their programs after," Jack said.

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

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

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

"There is no fixother than the attitudes that we all bring into the classroom. There is no legal fix," Hoover said.Managerial and legal considerations define the outer perimeter of the sacred space which the university occupies, he said, "but they do not supply its real governance, or the principle that are at the heart ofthe university. They cannotdo that. When one or the other takes over, the university is reduced to akind of intellectual vending machine. *Â£*L TOKYO HOUSE JAPANESE RESTAURANT "AuthenticHome Style Cooking' 733-6784 1222 N.

The ultimate irony may be that in straining so far to create an atmosphere conduciveto learning by all persons, something that we all want, we may actually produce a climate of suspicion,involuntary self-censorship, denunciation and even provocation." "What often begins as the celebration of downtrodden group identity and dignity, easily slides into collective narcissism and the celebration of intolerance," he said. A few people also expressed the sentiment that Western should embrace amore critical, multicultural and non-traditional curriculum in the interest of promoting diversity. "By far the majority of the materials that we use in the classroom have been written and/or formulated by elitegroups," Faulkner said. "Their lives, their experiences and their viewpoint...are taken as the norm." "Theliterary canon was established, or became set in stone more or less, in this century with the advent ofliterary readers in high schools and universities. What got put into those readers now constitutes thecanon, for the most part, and is now considered to be somewhat sacred, even though the people whoput it in there are not gods," she said. While serving on the Strategic Planning Committee's Cultural and Ethnic Pluralism Subcommittee, Faulkner said she helped conduct a survey of faculty members.

Althoughhalf of the responses favored taking this into consideration, about 20 faculty members responded bycalling the idea a "fascist, Stalinist, racistviolationof academic freedom." Dumas said faculty membersare not paying enough attention to problems faced by racial minorities, women and homosexuals."Our society is intrinsically racist, intrinsically sexist and intrinsically homophobic," he said.

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

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

What more could possibly be said for acomedy team that has lasted more than 30 years? The Smothers Brothers will be appearing at 8 p.m.Oct. 26 at the Mount Baker Theatre for one show only. The Smothers Brothers had their own comedyshow, "The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour," which ran from 1967 to 1969. Through their classic gagssuch as the Yo-Yo Man, "take it Tom" and Michael Row the Boat Ashore, the Smothers Brothers foundtheir way into the hearts of many Americans. The Smothers Brothers sing folk songs, with Tom playingthe guitar and Dick on bass, that are constantly interrupted with Tom's antics. Tom plays the slow-witted brother who goes "emotionally vague" at some of the most inopportune moments. Meanwhile, hisbrother Dick is constantly trying to get Tom to grow up and actually put on a mature show. "Youhaven't done one adult, responsible thing on this stage since you arrived," Dick said at aperformance covered by the Calgary Herald on June 6,1989. "Yes, I have. In fact right now I'm wearinga condom," Tom replied. The Yo-Yo Man is also part of the Smothers popularity. Tom performs yo-yotricks while Dick narrates. Tom doesn't talk when he is in the "state of Yo" because as he explains,when he's in a state of Yo he is too hip to verbalize anything. Their show was canceled at the end of the1969 season because of disputes that some of the material that they wanted to use was toocontroversial. Political tensions and the Vietnam War were situations that the Smothers had to fightto talk about on television. The cancellation came as a shock to the writers and performers becausethey were still in the top ratings. The Smothers went on to other things, like starting their own winery,and did another show in 1975. However, they felt they were only being hired to play the part of theSmothers Brothers with no artistic input so they took a break for the next five years. In the early 1980s,the Smothers reformed their comedy team and began working the comedy circuits again. A 20-yearreunion show in 1988 brought together many of the people who worked on the Smothers Brothers showin the '60s. Steve Martin made an appearance as one of the, now successful writers and performers,that got their start on the Smothers Brothers show. The Smothers Brothers have won many awards andwere honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1989. Tickets areonsaleatMountBakerTheatre Center, 104 N.

Summer Stock's Quiltersrevived for another sold-out season By Karl Jensen copy editor Quilters, Western's most successfulSummer Stock '91 production, was carried over for a second run this quarter because of theoverwhelming public response. Tickets for each performance during both the summer and fall seasonswere sold out weeks prior to opening night. Quilters' fall performances officially began Thursday and runs through Sunday. Lines are expected for each show in the off chance that no-show tickets may becomeavailable. "It's very gratifying to have something that people look forward to and seek tickets for early,"Theater Arts Chairman Doug Vander Yacht said. Because of the staggering public response to Quilters,Vander Yacht held 50 seats for each performance exclusively for students until Oct 14. After that datethe tickets were made available to the public. "We're seeking all kinds of ways to bring more studentsinto the mix of an audience we have," Vander Yacht said. Approximately 30-40 percent of the averageWestern theater audience is students, he said. Quilters is a historical musical-drama, based on the reallife experiences of pioneer women in the American Southwest It evokes emotional and striking images,although it may be hard to imagine that a "musical" could do so. The setting is simple, as is the music.Yet, on the whole, both are very effective and necessary. "I think that the actors were able to bring asense of portrayal â€” not a cartoonish or caricature of the people that tried to bring some real humanfeeling and life to those moments within the play that, I thinkmakes the play go well, "Director Ruben VanKempen, of Seattle, said. Quilters is definitely an actor's and director's play. With over 90 separateroles, the all female cast bounces from children to grandparents, from male to female impressively andrather realistically. The staging and directing choices made by Van Kempen were both natural andintricate. His ability to blend the jump-cuts into different characters with the predominant characteridentities is impressive, as is the flexibility of the actors. "I'd seen Quilters once before and I 'd loved it. Ithought it would be just a real big director's challenge â€” which it really was," Van Kempen said. Thehighlight of the production is the stunning acting throughout the cast. The seven member female ensemble draws the audience into the play with incredibly moving dialogue and stirring pain and passion. "At firstit seems like you're distant from this â€” very distant â€” but then at the end you find that you're notdistant from it at all, but a part of it It's very moving," audience member and Environmental StudiesProfessor Richard Mayor said. It does require a bit of conditioning to begin to enjoy the play, however.The surreal music and dancing struck me, at first, as a tad off-center. Yet, by the conclusion, I was notonly entertained, but enthralled. IBM PS/2 Collegiate Tour Join us.. Fun, food, and freebies. All on IBM.

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

But this isnotjustarecent trend, however, asBellingham has been involved inthe used record business since 1972. Buying and trading used records, tapes and CDs has been themajor economic staple of business for the last 20 years at Cellophane Square, 115 E. Magnolia St."We've only been doing new products for the last 10 years," said Chris Conner of Cellophane. The main market used to be in the trading of old records, but that is no longer the case. "Records themselves have fallen off lately. People are not buying them as much as they used to," Conner said. "(Records) are stilla good business, but not what it once was. Tapes and CDs are where it's at." Cellophane Square movedto its current downtown location about two and a half years ago, a move which has done nothing butincrease business, as the traffic flow of the area is much greater than the store's former northsidelocation. "Its a good business. (There are) four stores that buy CDs within four blocks of here. There's adefinite market (here)," Conner said. Conner said the three Western Washington area Cellophane Square stores are doing so well, the owners are planning to build a fourth store sometime soon. He said theBellingham Cellophane store has been "stockpiling tapes and CDs for months" in anticipation of thegrand opening of the new store. Cellophane has simple rules for buying and selling. You need to be 18years of age and must have a valid driver's license. The only thing which fluctuates is the value given onyour trade-in. How much it is worth to Cellophane depends solely on what it is you are bringing in. "If you bring in Milli Vanilli, you'll probably only get a quarter, because we have a ton of them. But if you bringin the new Guns N' Roses, you'll obviously get a lot more," Conner said. He also said the value for cashsales is about 20 percent lower than straight trade-in exchanges. Cellophane will buy or trade for anyCDs, tapes, or records that are in good condition, even those purchased through record clubs atdiscount prices. "Some stores don't buy them (record club items), but we do," Conner said. "There isno legal distinction (between record club and non-record club items). Conner said most stores will nottake record club items for trade because they are uneasy about the material the items might be made of. He said the main concern occurred when record clubs would mass produce albums by using cheapvinyl, but he said record club tapes and CDs are now made with the same quality materials as storebought tapes and CDs. To those looking to trade in their old music, Conner offers this advice: "Clean thedirt and stuff off your records and CDs before coming down here, because we don't have the time toclean them and if they are dirty, you will sometimes get less money (for your trade)." Cellophane Squarehas two coupons in Western's Big Blue Bonus Book, which are good for discounted purchases of usedCDs, records, or tapes.

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

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

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

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

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

Rape and all forms of sexual assault are most definitely a real and powerful concern for students on campus. Unfortunately, rape is also vastly unreported, which accounts for the fact that University Policelacks concrete statistics as to what the prevalence of sexual assault is on our campus. Rape is a crimeof violence, both physical and emotional. Verbal threats and coercion can be just as frightening andforceful as physical threats and bodily harm. Physical bruises are not always necessary to createemotional scars. Whenever a sexual situation lacks actual words or conduct indicating freely givenconsent for sexual activity on the part of all persons involved, a sexual assault is occurring. It is estimated that one out of six college women will be sexually assaulted this year. The idea of rape conjures upimages of a woman being drug by her hair into a dark alley by an unknown assailant in adark hat andtrenchcoaL The unnerving truth is that roughly 85 percent of rape or attempted rape victims knew theirassailant, and that not all rape victims are women. But what can one person do to change the odds ofsexual assault from happening? Actually, there is a plethora of preventative measures that protectstudents from becoming statistics. Follow security measures. Do not prop residence hall doors open.Always walk with a friend after dark, or call Security at 676-3555 for an escort. Lock your doors. Be strong and assertive. Educate yourself and others about sexual violence. Carry mace, keys, a rolling pin, orother possible weapon when going out. Learn self-defense. Name rapists everywhere. Leave abusiverelationships. Do not be accommodating. Volunteer at Whatcom County Crisis Center (671-5714 or 384-3748) or Womencare Shelter for Battered Women (734-3438 or 671-8539). Be aware of the fact thatover 90 percent of date and acquaintance rapes involve the use of alcohol. Walk tall, be proud, and takecharge of situations. Demand justice for rape, murder and battering crimes. Dial 911 and report crimes.Publicize your anger. Take care of yourself, and be a healer. Learn to say "NO". It can take months oryears to heal from the trauma of a sexual assault. If you have been assaulted, get help. Contact theSexual Awareness Center (VU 214/647-6117), the Counseling Center (MH 262/676-3164), HealthServices (High Street Hall 25/676- 3400), VP for Student Affairs/Student Life (OM 390/676-3846),Whatcom County Crisis Center (734-7271/384-1485,24-hours), University Police (676-3555), orBellingham Police (911). Do not try to deal with the problem on your own. Seek the support you need and deserve.Rape is a terrible violation of one's sense of security and self-worth, but it is a wound from which one canheal. Sincerely, Michelle Hull Robyn Rogers Sexual Awareness Center Clarification It has come to the attention of The Western Front editors that headlines used on the letters page (Oct. 18 and Oct 22)regarding Initiative 120 have caused some confusion. By referring to the first letter, by Mark Ellis, asreader opinion and the second letter, by Amy Willis and Deidre Washburn, as facts about Initiative 120,The Front has appeared to have take a position on this issue. The Front strives to maintain objectivity inbringing issues to its readers. The headlines were taken from comments made within the lettersthemselves and are not a statement of the validity of one point of view over another. The Front apologizesfor any misconception. Rats, com. from pg. 15 they or someone like them will find a way to sell theirpoison. The true battlefield in a war on drugs is at home. Thus there is a better role that the CentralIntelligence Agency can take for our country: the promotion of intelligence in our country. Agentscould become teacher aides, tutors and counselors, putting their information gathering skills to positiveuse. They could help care for our nation's elderly, work in hospitals and create community centers whereour youth can safely play. They wouldn't and shouldn't solve our country's problems, but they couldhelp us along by becoming a kinder, gentler CIA. Why not? It's better than them getting tangled up in the strings of their own puppet dictators. Why not? They've got budget money allocated to them already andwe could u the help. Why not? It's a way for them to help our country to finally rid itself of all these rats: a "Zero Tolerance" policy for ignorance. What is it you're saying? That type of innovation would betotally beyond reason to leaders like President Bush and Robert Gates? There are just too manyobstacles for this plan to overcome? Rats? Letters Policy the editor.

A motion was made to give $45. to the collegian to reinburse them for the salary of last summer's business manager. They had had to return their excess funds before his salary could be payed and therefore had to take his salary from another fund. The motion was seconded and unanimously passed. The secretary gave the financial covering the period from Feb. 29-April 30th. The question was brought up why the Forensic dept. funds were transferred over into club funds. Also in connection with finances, Dick reported that he had seen the Drama Depart. and the business office to make sure we were not billed for any expenses in connection with Dedication Week. A motion was passed to approve the financial report. Mr. Lappenbusch had asked if it was necessary for the board to approve his award recommendations. The board referred to the Bylaws, section 2 under awards, which states that this policy has to be followed. The secretary is to inform him of this and also, that the board confirmed his awards in basketball and swimming this year. Mr. Gelder reported that the administration was adhering to out policy not to restrict the use of the lounge at any time to any one group in that they were using the Blue room at edens Hall for the faculty reception for Seniors. Dick reported that a bill for $114.84 had to be paid by the ASB as a compensating tax for all out of state purchases since 1949. (this tax reimburses the government 3% of all out of state purchases). A motion was made to pay the bill out of budget control; seconded and unanimously passed. A motion was made that in the future, the tax will be kept month by month and after August 22, the compensating tax on all purchases be absorbed by the department making the purchases; seconded and unanimously passed. The department heads are to be informed of this motion. It was decided to have the next board of control meeting at 4:00, Thursday, May 15th. The final draft of the budget is to be due May 28th. Dick talked to the board about the Evergreen Conference and urged the members to attend the sessions. Session times will be listed in the daily bulletin. 195205 Page 2 May 15, 1952 The meeting was called to order by the president, Dick Pederson; minutes were approved as read. Dick read a letter of thanks from Whitworth College regarding the very successful Evergreen Conference held at Western. Dick felt that it had been very well received and that financially we would come out ahead. Next year's host for the conference is PLC. Larry Wilson gave a report on the Exchange assembly. He said approximately $393. had been cleared up to date. The board discussed possible ways of tranportating the show over to Central and a motion was made that the matter of transportation be left to Larry's discretion; seconded and unanimously passed. Dr. Kuder asked the board their opinion on having Mr. Sol Lewis speak to the entire student body during one of the vacant assembly periods in an effort to instill enthusiasm in the students regarding our college and its opportunities. These students in turn could interest other students in attending the college. Discussion followed but no definite decisions were made. Morris Anderson was present to give his recommendation on the percentage of co-op receipts which he felt should be given back in divends. After discussion of the matter, in keeping with his recommendation, a motion was made that the board of control authorize the Co-op committee to give a $0.10 dividend on $13,203.92 co-op receipts submitted; seconded and unanimously passed. The date for next week's board meeting was set at 4:00 pm Thursday 22nd. It is to be devoted solely to budget matters. The faculty members on the board agreed to send a note to the faculty members asking them to cooperate in not scheduling tests on the day, or the day after, the students are at Central for the Exchange assembly. Mark Hardie was given an o.k. by the board to schedule next year's Campus Day a week earlier or a week later than previously, on next year's calendar. Milt CLothier handed out the first draft of the budget and asked everyone to go over it carefully and ask about anything they questioned. The meeting was adjourned. Respectfully submitted, Anne Griffiths Secretary 195205 Page 3 May 22, 1952 The meeting was called to orer by the vice-president, Larry Wilson. Minutes were approved as read. The board members were informed of an invitation from Dr. Haggard to attend his annual picnic for board members and office staff. It will be held Tues. May 27, 6:00 P.M. at Gooseberry Point. A motion was made setting the time limit for discussion of budget matter at 5:30; seconded and unanimously passed. Budgets under consideration at this meeting were: Administration, Social, Drama, and Women's P.E. Suggestions were made up of changes on certain items. The question was brought up as to who supplies the equipment for Thursday night rec. hours. before moving on to other business, the decision was made to consider the Forensic and Music budgets at the next meeting, and ask Mr. Carlile and Dr. D'Andrea to be present when their respective budgets were being discussed. Larry read the letters of application for student publications positions and Mrs. Burnet's recommendations. The following appointments were made: Paul Gillie Editor, 1952 summer Collegian Lorreta Olson Business Manager, 1952 summer Collegian Elaine Daverine Editor, 1952-53 Collegian Lorreta Olson Business Manager, 1952-53 Collegian Clint Doherty Editor, 1952-53 Profile In each case, a motion was passed making the appointments official. JoAnn Hoyt requested $25. for the Klipsun's share of the publication's banquet. A motion was passed granting the $25.00, to be taken from the Social Budget. A motion was passed that $48.52 be appropriated the Scholarship Society for their banquet; amount to be taken from Budget Control. The board expressed their appreciation to Miss Heber for her services as chaperone on the trip to Central with the Exchange Assembly group. A letter is to be sent Dr. Taylor thanking him for his services. Befoe adjournment, the Board decided to call a special meeting on Monday, May 26th, 4:00 P.M. to deal with budget matters. The meeting was adjourned. Anne Griffiths Secretary 195205 Page 4 May 26, 1952 Minute of Special Meeting (Budget) - The meeting was called to order by the president, Dick Pederson. Minutes were approved as read. Dick read a list from Miss Church of names of those attending the picnic at Gooseberry Point. Dick also informed the board that the Campus Day report and the financial report from the Evergreen Conference would be in by the next meeting. Mr. Lappenbusch was present to request funds to send three athletes to the N.A.I.A. tournament at Abilene, Texas, June 6th and 7th. Action on the matter was postponed until the latter part of the meeting as that budget matters could be taken care of first. Mr. Walters and Mr. Regier were present to answer any questions concerning the music budget. After considerable discussion, a motion was made by Larry Wilson that the Music Department be requested to prepare for approval by the Board of Control, the final draft of the Music budget, not to exceed $4,000; seconded and passed with a vote of 10 for; 1 opposed.

A motion was made by Dr. Cederstrom granting them permission; seconded.

Donna Redmond gave a report on the recent Co-op Board meeting. A motion was carried to hire Mr. Earle on a full-time basis at an annual salary of $3,600 subject to clarification of his duties. The Co-op Board will work with Mr. Earle to determine his specific duties. Miss Kangley voiced the general opinion when she mentioned that the atmosphere and service in the Co-op need improvment. A motion was carried allowing Arnold Lahti to be awarded four stars on his blanket for tennis. We discueed the National Student Organization movement. A motion was carried not to send a delegate to the coming Constitutional Convention at the University of Wisconsin. A letter from Clark Brown was read stating that because the 1947 Klipsun is financially sound, the three hundred dollars which was underwritten by the Board of Control is unnecessary. The secretary was appointed to write the Klipsun staff a letter of congratulations upon their publication. Don Packard has asked Mr. Lobe from B.B. Furniture to come to the Student Lounge tomorrow to look over the thirteen chairs recently purchased. There should be an adjustment made because the furniture is not wearing at all well. The expense account from the recent trip made to the ASB Presidents' Convention in Vancouver, B.C., by Halldor Karason and Don Packard was accepted. The sports banquet would have been much more successful had a different date been selected. Due to the interference of the holiday, less than fifty per cent of the number expected were present. There were several suggestions for changes to next year's banquet. There was a discussion concerning the sale of cigarettes in the Co-op. A motion was carried empowering Mr. Earle to sell cigarettes in the Co-op. Don Brown will inform Dr. Haggard of this action. It has become necessary to exchange the location of the men's locker room and the ski shop in order to give Mr. Earle an outside entrance for the delivery of Co-op parcels. There has been considerable discussion on this point, and there 1947 June page 2 June 6, 1947 cont. seems to be opposition to the proposed arrangement. The meeting adjourned at five-fourty-five.

Tensions Mount As Finals Week If ears College To Gel Station In 1964 If all goes well,Western and the Bellingham area may have an educational television station by the summer of 1964.The college is asking the state legislature to grant $56,500 for a studio, .transmitter, and equip-rrjent.Additional support is expected in matching funds from the federal government. This would be grantedunder the Mag-nuson- Robert Educational Television Bill signed by the President May 1. ,Bellingham's television station, KVbS, has eased the budget by offering $2,500 worth of labor and otheraid to complete the transmitter and the use of a transmitter support on Orcas Island's Mt.Constitution. If the governor shows favor to the appropriations in his address to the Legislature inJanuary, the proposal will be handed to the state television commission. Provided the plans areaccepted there, they will then revert back to the legislature for consideration of a state-wideeducational television network. It is believed that Western is the only applicant in Northwest Washington. "A full program schedule is being outlined, including plays special events, telecourses, children'sprograms and general adult programs. Part of the programs will originate at Western with films and.live shows, and provisional plans call for hookup with â€¢ the' University of Washington's "Channel 9(KCTS) for daytime and evening shows. Two hours a day will be provided by tlie National EducationalTelevision and Radio Center in Washington. ' Inquiry -has-been made about obtaining the ultra highfrequency Channel 18. Tensions mount on Western's campus as hundreds of students settle down fornext week's bath of fire, ignited through the courtesy of professors, fanned with the madness of finals,and sustained with the fuel of midnight oil. Three Collegian reporters set out this week to learn justhow Westernites feel about this perennial malady called finals week. As expected, everyone/hadsomething to say. Dave Benseler declared, "Finals are ridiculous. Professors should give enoughtests during the quarter to evaluate students." On the other hand, government major Don Holert thinksthey are "a necessary evil," but wishes we didn' t have them. Jan Tebelman, elementary educationmajor, is of the opinion that "Finals are somewhat better than a lot of busy work!-" Maxine, Lightburn,junior, put it a bit more strjangiy. ^'Finals are horrible,'' she said gt;!' 'They make the . week ^Sveryhectic," Ray Burke seem^ lt;i: to agree commenting that i gt;ec. 11 '|hrough v 14 are the dark days:of the fall quarter. .,, - i ^-1 -Linda Crews felt there is too much emphasis on fact and not enough onconcepts. "I don't think fimm grades are necessary, anyway!" she exclaimed. Bill Paulson thinks thereis much emphasis on grades and the final, "If a student does well in a class for most of the quarter andthen messes up the final he may flunk the course." Paulson suggests it would be better to use manytests, supplemented with committee work and projects to base class evaluation on. He believes thiswould create a "feeling of activity, not passivity" in students. "Although our finals are bad," Paulsonreasoned, "they are not as bad as some European school testing programs where students take onelong test after four years of study." A typical reaction was expressed by foreign languageelementary education major, Dick Hedges. "I'm getting used to finals by now," he said, "But I'll reallybe glad when they're over." He then excused himself to attend his final history seminar at Shakey's!Students are not alone in their frustrations of finals. Dr. Herbert Taylor thinks final week is a situationof "sheer hysteria, although perfectly normal," for both faculty and students. "No one I know is satisfiedwith the present situation," he said, "but no one has come up with an adequate substitute." Dr. EdwardNeuzil of the Chemistry Department described finals as "an enormous barrier between the firstpart of the quarter and vacation. "I don't believe in finals," he said. "They don't serve their purpose.Ten micro-seconds after a student has walked out he has forgotten 80 per cent of what he learned. "The main trouble is that people are not learning for knowledge's sake," Neuzil emphasized. "They aretrying to get a union card." Finals week presents a unique set of circumstances for the coffee shop."It is deader than heck during test periods but between tests it is packed," explained Charles Blair,coffee shop manager. "Coffee sales rise spectacularly," he added. "We go through five gallons morecoffee per day." Not everyone is dreading finals, though. D. Maconoghie, the campus marshal, islooking forward to them. "My problems all disappear during finals week," he said jubilantly. "Thereare no campus activities that draw a large group of students. Everybody is burning the midnight oil."Constantine Franks, local Hamburger impresario, also viewed finals week with pleasant anticipation. "Our business goes up quite a bit," he commented. "Cigarette sales just about double, especially togirls." NSF Awards Western $104,600 In Grants By Ernie Smith The National Science Foundationhas awarded Western a grant totaling $104,600 for the financing of a mathematics and physicssummer institute for secondary school teachers. "The: total grant for the Physics Department is$43,600, a major portion of which represents subsistence allowances for the participants, 30 innumber," Dr. Raymond McLeod, summer institute director, said in a recent interview. Dr. SheldonRio, mathematics summer institute director, said also in. a recent interview that the MathematicsDepartment has mathematics participate. teachers who will OBJECTIVES The prime objective of bothsummer programs is to enchance the quality of instruction and to improve subject matter preparationof secondary school teachers who are currently engaged in physics or mathematics teaching. "This is the first physics in? stitute of this kind," commented McLeod. Rio noted that this was thfc thirdsummer the general NSF program had been in operation.

Kuder, dean of students. "The test will be held during the thirdweek of winter quarter on Thursday, January 17 and Saturday January 19. The dates for spring quarterwill be Thursday, April 18 and Saturday, April 20." he said. Dr. Kuder cited one reason for the change, "this action was done to give the department of English a more reasonable span of time in which toevaluate the increasingly large number of tests." The chairman of the English dpeartment, Dr. E. R.Clapp said, "readings were almost impossible, especially this quarter with the Thanksgiving weekend.It created a real problem. Now that there will be a longer time in which to read them, a better job canbe done." Dr. Clapp urged students to take the test as soon as they are eligible. "Students may take ittheir fifth quarter at Western if they have successfully passed both English 100 and English 101 at thisschool." "If the students wait, they will only create more problems," he emphasized. STUDENT HOWIECLARK relaxes as he studies for next week's final exams. OFFERED EACH QUARTER The EnglishCompetency Test is a test offered each quarter. It is a two part test consisting of a dictation-spelling part and a written essay. A student must pass the entire test before he may take his first studentteaching course, according to the college catalogue. However, accord ing to Dr. Bearnice Skeen,coord inator of student teaching, there are a few exceptions for students planning to graduate in spring or summer, 1963. Students planning to graduate then, who have not passed the English CompetencyTest, are urged to contact her for details concerning this exception. Miss Leslie Hunt of the Englishdepartment said, "this test is not something that the English department dreamed up, but is intended as a screen to weed out poor writers and spellers before they enter student teaching." Dr. â€¢ Skeen said,"the English Competency Test is a device to get good qualified teachers." "The English CompetencyTest is a college test that is not only a test of spelling, but a test of students' abilities in grammar,reading, writing and thinking," Dr. Clapp concluded. ious study in either mathematics or physics. Thereare no restrictions on who may apply or where they are now teaching except they must be teaching in the United States. COURSES AND STAFF "Courses in physics will include upper division courses inmechanics, electricity and magnetism, atomic physics, history of physics, and projects andseminars, including discussions of physics curricula and materials for secondary schools," McLeodemphasized, f Dr. Arnold Lahti and Dr. Richard Lindsey will assist McLeod in the physics program. The mathematics summer institute will offer courses in logic and sets, point set theory, geometry,number theory, and a curriculum seminar. The staff will include Dr. William Abel, Dr. JamesMcFarland, Dr. Sheldon Rio, all of Western. Dr. Ralph James of the University of British Columbia willalso be on hand for the program. Both directors said that credit gained by completion of the coursesoffered could be forwarded toward a masters degree. Both institutes will be held during the regularsummer session next year. Dr. Hoshisaki To Participate In Math Meeting Dr. Joseph Hashisaki,chairman of Western's Mathematics Department, will travel to San Francisco Dec. 10 and 11 toattend the regional conference of the Committee on the Undergraduate Program in Mathematics.Hashisaki will participate in a panel discussion, "Teacher Education at the Elementary Level." Theconference will be concerned with implementing the recommendations of the CUPM and theMathematical Association of America for the training of teachers at the elementary and junior highschool levels.

He successfully fought it off iwith : his trusty Eveready. flashlight,according to the campus marshal, D. 0. Maconoghie, head of. the security patrol. Student SecurityPatrolman Charles Choate confirmed the fact ..that there are bats in the attic, viewed each night bysecurity patrolmen when they make their nightly inspections. Remember . . .

Thecombined forces now boast 12 students. "Before the security patrol there was a lone night watchmanwho inspected the buildings for fire only. The present security patrol, however, keeps, a wary eye outfor more than just fires," Maconoghie noted. The marshal called the security patrol a "unique all-studentorganization ;'' unique because they don't carry guns or clubs. "It would breed antagonism towardthe patrol from students and faculty members, the patrol might think with their weapons instead of theirheads," the marshal said. "Another reason for not allowing weapons is that a peaceful man's latentsadistic urges often come forth when he has a gun, as I have observed in several instances while in theU. S. Navy." Traffic Patrolman Larry Harn-den commented on the purposes of traffic control. "We areconcerned with service to the students, faculty, and guests. We keep traffic moving, driveways andfirelanes open for emergencies and give information." Harnden concluded with, "We are for thestudents, not against them and will give them the benefit of the doubt." The purpose of the campus cops was explained by Traffic Patrolman Chuck Dalton.

Bach's motet: "Jesu, Priceless Treasure," will be the selection highlighted, bythe group. David B. Schaub, organist, will open the program with Daquin's prelude "Noel." The collegechoir follows with Williams' "He Whom Joyous Shepherds Watched," Lockwood's "A Lullaby forChristmas," Ward's "That Wondrous Night of Christmas Eve" and Davis' "Carol of the Drum." SoloistJames Calhoon will be featured with the Western State-men in Work's "Go Tell It On The Mountain." The group will also sing Palestrina's "O Bone Jesu" and De Paur's "Oh, Po' Little Jesus." From Handel's"Messiah," Martin Campbell, bass, will sing the recitative: "For Behold, Darkness Shall Cover the Earth" and the aria: "The People That Walked in Darkness." David Schaub will accompany him on the organ.The coed chorus will do Wil-lan's "Glory To God in the Highest," ,Di_Lasso's "Adoramus te Christe"and ''Ding Dong, Merrily On High," a French carol arranged by Barthelson. Tansman's. variations ona theme by Girolamo Frescobaldi will be played by the college chamber 'orchestra. Concluding theprogram will be the chorale and choir in Schreck's advent motet: "Entrance Scene." "The patrol is tomake sure the campus is secure and quiet after normal working hours." One requirement for patrolmenis that they be married. The patrol checks for fires in various areas where hot plates or irons may haveaccidentally been left on. They were credited with saving part of Old Main last spring when a fire brokeout in the old honors room. Maconoghie explained that there is at least one fire drill each quarter ineach building on campus to check the speed of exit of building occupants and to see if all equipment isworking properly. One of the problems cleared up recently was that of the exit signs in the Ridgewaydormitories. They were changed because some of the directions led people out onto the balconies where escape was impossible. "All doors of all campus buildings are rattled at least three times eachnight," Choate said, "but not at the same time each night. This is to help curb any dishonesty that might occur. A lock keeps out ari honest man." Choate concluded that "The security patrol isn't here to'get*! anyone, but. to m a k e everyone's stay here as . pleasant as possible." Past campus capersthat were interesting, h u m o r o u s, and unique, encountered by the security and traffic patrols,included the appearance of a real stuffed seal in the Rain Forest, bats and rats in Eden's Hall andOld Main's attic, spooky creaks, rattles and mysterious footsteps in Old Main caused by wind, raiii,and perhaps a stow-away illegally in the building after hours. An actual outhouse and marble, slabsdraped with a fish net were set up in front of Old Main; class bells were found ringing all night in theHumanities Building; the door of the Library was blocked by a pile of bricks; a beer sign in front ofHaggard Hall stating "It takes good science to make good beer"; a simulated ladder to the second floorof Higginson Hall with a man's clothes hung from the bottom to the top; a real skeleton relocated fromthe PE Building to a nearby field; and a rumor that said that there were nude swimming parties inWestern's pool several years ago are a few such capers.

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

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

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

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

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

More than 150 people attended the opening in theViking Union Main Lounge, said Director of Women Studies Rosanne Kanhai. Kanhai said she felt it was important for this type of conference to take place in a homogenous community like Western.. "(Theconference) is a strong voice to be heard by anyone who is listening," Kanhai - said. "It is important thatthis type of event is supported by the campus." The SOCI conference is a national event that rotatesaround the country, Kanhai said. Each time it is hosted somewhere, it integrates itself into the area,Kanhai said. The opening ceremonies included presentations from Vice Provost Ken Simes; MargaretGreen, Chieftan of the Samish Indian Tribe; and tribal dancing and drumming by Chief John Cagey ofthe Lummi tribe with his wife and five grandchildren. Green shared her story of earning a degree fromEvergreen State College in The Little Swan Dancers performed the Dance of the 1978 and continuing tofight for greater tne sisters of Color conference opening. education for her people. racism of a dominatingwhite culture, Front/Matt Renschler Little People Friday night at Green expressed desire for Western tocontinue to educate students about her native lands. "The university should be a place to help peoplehelp themselves and make them grow," Green said. Provost Roland De Lorme formally opened theprogram. "Dr. De Lorme has always been a strong supporter (of women studies)," Kanhai said. "It wasappropriate that someone from Western's faculty should welcome conference participants." GailTremblay of Olympia substituted for Mary Crow Dog, who was scheduled to be the featured speaker ofthe night. Tremblay read poetry concerning the toward Native American cultures. She began herreadings with excerpts from Mary Crow Dog's book, Lakota Woman. She also read poems from herbook, Indians Singing in 20th Century America. Kanhai said the conference was meant to be agathering of people coming together regarding issues of color. The conference will be followed up by ananthology of participants' works. Kanhai said she is expecting an enthusiastic response for thepublication that will be distributed in the fall. Front/Erin Fredrichs Angela Eun Ee Koh Gibson spokeSaturday. By Robin Skillings The Western Front Five women of color spoke about their personalexperiences during a panel Saturday afternoon titled "The Politics of Identity" in Viking Addition 461-3.Angela Eun Ee Koh Gibson, an American Cultural Studies major, opened the panel with the backgroundand history of her topic of discussion, "Involuntary Immigrants: Korean-American Adoptees." "... I'ma bad memory to my mother. I'm an embarrassment to my nation. I'm not sure where I was born. I am not sure who I am. I'm case 8,819," Gibson read from a Ji Sun Sjogren poem, "Seed from a Silence." TheU.S. government, Gibson said, adopts Korean children as a humanitarian action to "save them from theirpoor living situations." She said the humanitarian theory is the most prominent issue for transracialadoptees. It is important for adopting families to know the children's situations and for children to haveknowledge of their back-, grounds should they begin to ask, Gibson said. Adopted from Seoul Korea atthe age of 2, Gibson said she views being Korean as only a "physical appearance." She traveled with her father to Korea at the age of 16. While there, she realized that "even though we shared the same color, I still didn't feel like I fit in ... due to my mannerisms." She continues to ask the questions, "Where do I fit in?" and, "Who am I accepted by?" Following Gibson's presentation, Touk Praseuthsy and Bopha Chan opened their discussion titled "Caught in a Culture Clash: Young Women Straddling South East Asiaand America." Praseuthsy, a Western finance student, said, "The mom versus the daughter of the SeeIdentity, -page 4 Western students saved from JWE headache By Ken Brierly and Julie Graham TheWestern Front A thorn in the side of many Western students was yanked out Monday by Western'sFaculty Senate. "The Junior Writing Exam is eliminated" said Faculty Senate President Jim Hearne after a unanimous vote to remove the test, "effective immediately," from university requirements. "Hold yourapplause," he said. The change removes one hurdle in the graduation requirements for currentstudents, Hearne said. Specifically, whether they've passed the JWE or not, students currentlyattending Western will now only be required to take a writing proficiency course in the process of fulfillinggraduation requirements. Incoming freshmen and transfer students as of fall quarter 1999 will be bound by a new set of standards, which are yet to be finalized. The motion to eliminate the test came on therecommendation of the Academic Coordinating Commission, which received the recommendation fromthe Expository Writing Committee. Faculty have long seen limitations in the JWE, said Carmen Werder,consultant to the EWC. "I had students who would write beautiful things for me, then fail the JWE,"said Diana Weymark, an economics professor who first came up with the idea of writing units threeyears ago. As part of its original recommendation to remove the JWE, the EWC suggested replacing the current writing proficiency requirements â€” both the JWE and the writing proficiency course â€” withclasses that would supply one to three writing credits, depending on the amount of required writing inthe class, said Thor Hansen, geology department chair; the geology department worked with the EWC to formulate the proposed new requirements. "Instead of having one class to satisfy a writing proficiencyrequirement," Hansen said, "you can have writing from several different disciplines" for writingproficiency credits. Under the proposed plan, a student would need a total of six writing units with apassing grade of "C" or better in order to graduate, Werder said. In their draft form, "writing units" wouldbe credited as follows: Three units for a course in which 70 percent of the requirements are draftwriting; two units for courses in which 50 percent of the course work is draft writing; and one unit forcourses in which 30 percent is writing. "This will make it easier for sciences to come up with classesthat count for writing proficiency," Hansen said. "But here's the ' See JWE, page 6 ---------- Western Front - 1998 June 2 - Page 2 ---------- 2 â€¢ THE WESTERN FRONT NEWS June 2, 1998 Campus Police: May 28,1:45 p.m.: A Westernfaculty member reported smoke coming from a trash receptacle located on the north side of the ArtAnnex.

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

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

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

Last Monday, the Department of Justice filed what may be the largest and most far-reaching lawsuit ever filedagainst a company using the century-old Sherman anti-trust laws. Twenty states immediately followedsuit, filing their own anti-trust suits against the software giant. The Justice Department and the statescontend Microsoft is violating an agreement with the federal government made in 1994, stipulatingthat Microsoft is not to bundle its products together, something the company is doing by integratingits Internet Explorer web browser into its new Windows '98 operating system. More seriously forMicrosoft, the lawsuits contend the company has a monopoly in the software industry. But what makesthe lawsuits and surrounding issues so interesting are the close ties-between Justice Departmentinvestigation and Microsoft's competitors. Many Microsoft supporters have contended that the suitsare at the behest of competitors who simply can't keep up with Microsoft.

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

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

"I think it'sjust fun speeding over the waves, when you are almost tipping and almost out of control," Seeton said."It's that excitement, that possibility of sailing on the edge." Seeton is a beginning sailing student thisquarter. "I've grown up on the lake, and I love the water," she said. "I thought it would be a good class totake during the afternoon to take a break from the campus scene; get out on the water and have a goodtime," she said. In one quarter, students learn the basics of sailing and receive certification by theAmerican Sailing Association. Several facilities are available for Western students interested in sailing. If students don't know how to sail, several courses are offered at Western. In the physical education curriculum, classes range from beginning sailing to instruction sailing and cost $35 per person.Keelboat lessons in Bellingham Bay are also available. Private lessons, two-hour sessions for fourdays, are offered for $35 by instructors at Lakewood on Lake Whatcom. Western student K.C.

"Thebetter they get now, the better they can learn real tacking in sssssr^w^ advanced courses." Bodily isalso captain of the Western sailing team. The team welcomes anyone who is interested in sailing,experienced or not. The sailing team begins recruiting prospective students at the start of fall quarter.Bodily gives introductory lectures at the beginning of the season, and beginning sailors ask moreexperienced team members questions as they learn. Certified sailors may rent sailing craft fromWestern. Lakewood houses more than 50 different watercraft for student use. Anyone with campusidentification from Western, Northwest Indian College and Whatcom Community College can rent asailboat for a day, Jeff Davis said. Prices range from $2 for an Alpha/Laser sailing craft and $3 for the two keelboats, Victory 21 and Pearson 23. "But, for the sailing equipment, you do have to know how to sail and have to take an orientation and see how things are run and the parts of the boats," Davis said."There are a lot of things that need to be assembled." Orientations are offered Friday, Saturday andSunday at anytime and last about 45 minutes. "It gives people a chance to see where everything isand do a demonstration of basic skill," Davis said. Students may also find outside instruction at localsailing schools in Bellingham. Private sailing schools, such as the VMG Boating Northwest SailingSchool at Bell-haven Charters and San Seen Juan Sailing School, offer several different courses forbeginning sailors and certification by the ASA. Bellhaven Charters is located in the Squalicum HarborMall. It is owned by Russ Whitten and Western alum Tom Krabbenhoft. He was also a Western sailinginstructor and sailing team member. Bellhaven Charters offers the sailshare program. Members pay lowmonthly dues to enjoy unlimited day sailing on a 1998 36- foot-long Catalina. "It helps people get access to larger islands affordably," Krabbenhoft said. The school offers a wide range of courses for beginning and advanced sailing, with a fleet of 12 boats. The school emphasizes the utilization of peer review,feedback and critique in their teaching techniques. "Everybody gets to practice their skills withanchoring and things like that," Jackie Goodsir, charter manager, said. Standard courses include aweekend level-one course in basic keelboat sailing, which teaches basic skills such as sailingterminology, theory, docking and mooring, per-son- overboard recovery and required safetyequipment. ppii..Â» ovwnS T h e ^ ^ f()r t Re l t / A , e course is $149, with additional textbook,materials and certification costs. A basic coastal cruising course is also offered after completion ofthe equivalent of a basic keelboat course. The weekend coastal cruising course teaches skills thatinclude basic chart symbols and piloting, understanding tide and current publications, basic anchoring techniques and taking bearings and plotting positions. The course costs $199, with additional textbook,materials and certification costs. The sailing school also has advanced courses, private lessons and"cruise 'n' learns," which offer a full week of on-fhe-water training, practice and experience with theschool have had a partnership for the last five years where the university uses their facilities, such as a J-30 keelboat for sailing classes, Roger Van Dyken said. The San Juan Sailing School also has a sailingclub, where members may charter a boat for day sailing at any time and receive discounts. "We aremaking Western a member of our sailing club, meaning students will get discounts for our lessons," hesaid. Students can also receive a discount when chartering boats.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Exchanging addresses with friends. • °—~ " Library Staff Feted At Wilson Breakfast The graduating class of Belling-ham State Normal will hold its thirty- second annual commencement exercises tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock in the auditorium. Piling through a lane formed by the faculty the graduates will march down the front walk in, the usual drill formation to music'played by the Normal School orchestra. The invocation will be delivered by the Rev. Dwight C. Smith. The audience will sing "America, the Beautiful," following which the commencement address will be given by Mr. Ben H. Kizer of Spokane, Washington. Two selections, "Red Rose" by Hadley and the Ballet Suite, "Rosa-i munde," by Schubert, will be played by the Normal School Orchestra. President C. H. Fisher will present the class and Dr. W. D. Kirk-patrick, chairman of the board of trustees, will present the diplomas. The delivering of the benediction by the Rev. Dwight C. Smith will close the exercises. In accordance with the traditions of the school, the graduating class will hold its customary rituals-tonight in the auditorium and on the campus at 8 o'clock. Opening the exercises with the singing of the Alma Mater by the class, the procedure will continue as in the past. Charles Dowell, president of the Sophomore class, will present the key and book to the Freshman class. Vernon ^Leatha, vice-president of the Freshmen, will accept the trust in behalf of his class. After the singing of "The White and Blue," the graduating class, led by the Sophomore executive council, will go in a procession to the stone. The placing of the numerals in the storied walk will be done by Charles Dowell. When the "Aspiration" has been given by Louise Oberleitner, the procession will continue to Edens Hall, where a reception will be given in honor of the class. GRADERS GIVE PLAY FANTASTIC DRAMA PRESENTED BY SEVENTH GRADE PUPILS. In their regular training school assembly this morning, the members of the Seventh Grade Drama Club gave an excellent presentation of "The Slippers of Cinderella," a fanr tastic play. All the seventh grade teachers and Mr. Victor H. Hoppe helped in the preparation of the play, which centered around the domestic affairs of an English family who suddenly found themselves no longer wealthy and in need of a means to support themselves. Through the magic aid of a fairy godmother the affairs of the household were put in such a state as to put the family in a panic before they can get back to their normal atmosphere before the long-expected very wealthy aunt of the family arrives. Myra, the eldest daughter in the family, is played by Edith Farlow. Polly and Dolly, the twins, are very well portrayed to the audience by Margaret Boyd and Vivian Clark. Jack Whitmore is Jimmy and Agatha-next-door is played by Lorraine Elliers. Margaret. Jane Bruff plays in the role of Jane, the maid. Betty Burnet is Elise and Jean Wellington is the Fairy Godmother. MORNING ASSEMBLY ANNUAL GLASS DAY PRESIDENT FISHER DISCUSSES - WORK ACCOMPLISHED BY THE CLASS SINCE ENTRY. CUP AWARDED KLIPSUN MAKES GAIN FINANCIAL REPORT S HOW S BOOK TO HAVE SLIGHT EDGE. ENROLLMENT OPENS SATURDAY. JUNE 13 ADVANCED COURSES OFFERED IN SEVERAL DEPARTMENTS. ELEVEN ARE PLACED APPOINTMENTS TO TEACHING POSITIONS ARE ANNOUNCED. Registration for the Summer quarter will be held all day Saturday, June 13. Classes will begin the following Monday at 8 a. m. Registration for the coming" quarter will be closed after the first-week of the opening of/the Summer session. Courses i offered are practically identical with those given in previous quarters with the exception that several special courses are offered to meet the needs of the advanced students. Many of the courses are offered for the first half of the quarter, and some for the second half to accommodate students who wish to enroll for shorter terms. Activity Fee Raised To counteract the recent budget cut, the student activity fee will be raised to eight dollars and the library, health and paper fee raised to three dollars, besides the regular course fees and laboratory fees. Several new courses will be offered. Three new Home Economics courses will be taught by Miss Frances Wiley. They are Home Economics 101, Foods and Cookery, a five credit course for students preparing to teach Home Economics. Home Economics 105 is a three As a fitting beginning to the annual Class Day activities, the regular Class Day assembly was held this morning at 11 o'clock in the auditorium. The presenting of the Freshman Cup by Charles Dowell to an outstanding Freshman student started the program. Vocal Solo Given It was followed by a vocal solo by Charlotte Glinesky, accompanied by Aileen Hurlbert. Miss Glinesky sang the charming little number called "Piper June," by Molly Carew. Under the direction of Miss Mildred Jewell of the Physical Education department, the graceful flowing "Valse" was performed by a group of students in the Natural Dancing class. Lois Hesseltine, Virginia Howell, Edythe Koski, Mary McDonald, Evelyn Montgomery, and Wilma Neeley interpreted the rhythm with a subtle grace. Farce Produced With his usual masterly technique and interpretation, Jack Schafer played the "Staccato Caprice" by Max Vogrich. gt; Presented by the Play Production class under the direction of Frances Benson, the amusing farce, "Lov» Is Like That," by Ryerson and Clemens, was a light touch which pleased the students. Frances Wilmarth, Effie Deighton, and Isabel Jenne were starred in the production. President Fisher Speaks As an appropriate climax to the assembly, President C. H. Fisher addressed the students with an inspiring discussion upon the work done by the graduating class. The main business at the -final meeting of the quarter of the Board of Control last night consisted of some back business and bits of rour tine work. Masters, Ruckmick, and O'Donnell were not in attendance. Klipsun Ahead Three of the items dealt with the recent publication of the Klipsun. Suzanne Waters was voted the salary due her for a year's work, which amounted to $100. David Morse reported that financially the book was successful and came out a few dollars ahead. His report was accepted and the Board also awarded him his official VW" pin for work as business manager of the book. Reports were given on the recent Men's Club Vodvil show, and Skot-heim's report on the "Pass Issuance," which wasv held over from the last meeting, was read and accepted. It supplants present Rec hour rules and divides them into clearer points, as well as providing for the carrying out of these. Mixer Planned It was announced that the Board will handle a mixer, to be held at the start of the summer quarter, with the date to be set later. o FOUR OTHER STUDENTS HAVE HIGH AVERAGES; GENERAL LEVEL GOOD. First Winner 130 GRADE POINTS AGGREGATED IN TWO QUARTERS. NICHE IN LIBRARY IN HONOR OF MISS EDENS PLANNED BY SPIESEKE FISHER ADDRESSES ALUMNI GATHERING STRESSES FUTURE GROWTH OF NORMAL AT ANNUAL EVENT. Pointing out some of the problems that the officials of the school have had to meet during the past year and following through with Wilfred Gunderson, modest, red* headed, studious Freshman youth, stepped forward in assembly this morning, his freckled face beaming happily as he heard the sentence: "First winner of the newly established Freshman Scholastic Cup." Four classmates of Gunderson's received honorable mention. In each case their scholastic standing was said to be unusually high. Four Get Mention These four are Paul Williams, president of the class, son of Professor Pelagius Williams and Whatcom high graduate; Dorothy Top, who hails from Everson, a Whatcom county town; Nellie Cox, another local student who completed her high school studies at Whatcom high; and Enid Rasmus, who is an put of the state resident, and who graduated from Astoria, Oregon, high school last spring. Gunderson's record is one of un-' usual high grades, and figured on the basis of the grade point system amounts to 130 points for the Fall and Winteii quarters studies. His Spring quarter work is on an approximately equal standard, and his grades have been given to the awards ---------- Northwest Viking - 1931 June 10 - Page 2 ---------- _Publi«hed evtery Friday except during the month of September, by the Aasnciated Students, Washington State Normal, Bellingha». r - •" i5Se*^fdtkb £t tfMaS 3. a 1 t«7?e,lin8harn* Washin«?t lt;?ri' as s ^ « lt;*W ?»Wr by Printed by the Miller Sutherlen Printing Company, Bellingham National Bank Bldg.

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

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

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

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

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

Services claim cuts unjust by RICROFF SONJA BROWN Prefacing itsrecommendations on how to cut the budget of student services, the Ad Hoc Committee on StudentPersonnel Budget pointed to President Charles Flora's "apparent lack of insight and understanding" andthe Board of Trustees' "precipitous action based in part on eleventh-hour pleas." In its report to Dean ofStudents C. W. "Bill" McDonald on ways to cut the budget by 30 per cent, the committee, after meetingalmost daily for the past three weeks, urged McDonald to advise the president of the "grave concern"over the reduction, to request a formal audience before the Board of Trustees and to convince AcademicVice President Jerry Anderson and Business Manager Don Cole that the reductions be shared by otherareas besides those falling under the Dean of Students Office. In the face of what seemed to themunjust reductions, noting that library acquisitions were cut none at all, the committee (composed of RayRomine, associate dean, who chaired the committee; Dr. Kenneth Jernberg, director of the StudentHealth Service; Saundra Taylor, director of the Counseling Center; and Louis Lallas, director of theCareer Planning and Placement Office) made the following recommendations of where funds might becut: â€”$42,000 by transferring resident directors and aides to the Housing and Dining budget; -$10,000or $5,500 by reducing stipends to graduate students in student personnel administration; -$30,000 (in1973-74) by returning to financial aids federal overhead monies generated by that office; -$20,000 byreturning to the placement office monies generated by that office; -$11,000 by reductions in theCounseling Center; -$20,000 or $10,000. by reducing h e a l t h services budget; also recommended was the transfer of the health service to St. Luke's Hospital; â€”$53,213 by 10-month employe appointments; â€”$26,656 by 11-month employe appointments; $42,000 or $84,000 by assessing students a $2 or $4health fee. McDonald will present a "progress report" on the cuts at the Board of Trustees meeting,tentatively set for Jan. 10. 'Everyone is hurt, but no one is bleeding to death.' Dr. Kenneth Jernberg,director of Student Health Services, defended his area during testimony to the committee saying that3,000 students a quarter pass through its doors, and for some it is a service which enables them to stayin school. Those students who do not use it nevertheless have a right to expect a health service to beavailable, he said. In answer to Romine's belief that educational functions should have priority overservice functions, Dr. Jernberg testified that the main purpose of health services was indeed to providehealth care therefore regulating health e d u c a t i o n to second place. "However, we are now buildingprograms in nutrition and preventive health care into the service," he said. With the elimination of theCounseling Center students would lose a voluntary, free and confidential counseling service, which lastyear served 17 per cent of the student body, Saundra Taylor, director of the center, reported. About 800students a year have problems of "moderate severity," Taylor said, adding that close to 200 a year could "drop out of school without counseling." The Bellingham community would be unable to provide thepsychological crusading students need and workshops and self-study projects would not provide anadequate substitute. Associate and assistant deans defended their services, expressing a desire forstrong leadership and coordination of services. One suggestion for lifting the "fog" surrounding theirfunctions was clustering several of the services into a development center. Judging his office to beamong the most crucial to students Richard Coward of Financial Aids said the least effective servicesshould be cut rather than making across-the-board cuts. Louis Lallas, director of Career Planning andPlacement, pointed out the changes in the employment situation since 1969, which marks the end of an era of plentiful job opportunities. "More than ever graduates have to demonstrate job readiness and learn the skill of job seeking," he said. Ninety per cent of 1971-72 graduating seniors used his office's service, he added. The committee designed the proposal so as not to seriously eliminate any one service areaor personnel. But it was met with general disapproval by the student services heads. Romine stressedhis committee's efforts to find "loose and floating RAY ROMINE funds" rather than hurting one servicearea more than another. Coward termed the proposal as a "cop-out" by the committee since it "cuteveryone across the board." "I'm not for sorting people out," Coward said. "But the committee is takingthe easy way out. This way everyone is hurt but no one is bleeding to death." Coward further supportedhis feelings saying the committee's duty was to determine which services, met the student and college's need and that it should have found out what services it could do without. Assistant Dean Tim Douglascriticized the Board of Trustees' action in hastily accepting the Mitchell Report that detailed reductions incollege services. "We should go to the board and raise Cont. on pg. 9 Heating fuel rationing couldclose Western BLOOD THIRSTY-The King County Blood Bank obtained 186 pints of blood during itsTuesday drive at the Viking Commons and a bank spokesman called the drive a success.

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

T h e e n v i r o n m e n t al implications of this action are potentially more disastrous thanstrip mining for coal. Coal stripping has laid waste to huge analysis parts of several eastern states,especially West Virginia. Over 99 per cent of the shale ripped out of the Rocky Mountains will have to be dumped somewhere.

Or 1016 PugetSt. ; No environmental restrictions were proposed for the project in theWednesday decision. There must be a better way. During the remaining 27 years of the twentiethcentury, energy will be a key question. This will be the period of the energy "crunch," when demand willoutstrip available supplies. Nuclear power is proposed to be the main new source of power. It has beenstated in previous articles in this series that although nuclear power plants can be operated safely, thewastes are among the most poisonous substances known. Oil use will continue to rise, but is a finiteresource with a limited future. Coal will again become one of the most important fuels, as technologicala d v a n c e s improve its performance. Technological improvements for coal include the production ofhigh quality oil from coal. With most fuels, pollution is one of the main considerations Coal and oil bothproduce hydrocarbon pollutants, carbon monoxide and other chemical pollutants, as well as heatpollution. Nuclear fuels produce radioactive emissions and wastes and generate heat waste. Nuclearfusion, the power of the hydrogen bomb, is being researched. Within the past two years, Sovietscientists have made breakthroughs which make fusion a practical process, relatively pollution-free. The major problem with fusion lies in the extremely high temperatures which must be generated to beginand maintain the reaction. No material exists which can withstand the temperatures, over one milliondegrees Centigrade, so research is b e i n g done u t i l i z i ng electromagnetism as a shield.Electrolizing water into its c o m p o n e n t parts, and recombining them electrically, produces powerwhich could be used on large and small scale operations to produce power. Only one waste product isproduced - water. Hydrogen generation has been suggested as a feasible alternative to fossil fuel forrunning automobiles. Electrolytic converters have been suggested to produce power for homes. The sun is already being used in many places around the world on a small scale. In Japan, vinyl pillows placedon roofs heat water for home use, especially bathing. In the U.S., some housing developments are being c o n s t r u c t e d experimentally, utilizing solar-cell panels in roofs which transform the sun's energy ---------- Western Front - 1973 December 7 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, December 7, 1S gt;7 Western Front 3 AFT would keep faculty, cut fees by KEITH MYETTE(Ed. note: This is the final installment of a series tracing the growth of the local chapter of the AmericanFederation of Teachers.) Most state legislators have seen education as a commodity to be used for thebest interests of the community. With that is mind, Western was ordered to give back $1.62 million ofstate funds budgeted for students that didn't register last fall. This means a reduction in up to 100faculty positions, and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT), largely composed of young,untenured teachers (who would be the first to go if reductions would be based on tenure and seniority)felt the crunch with the rest of the college community. Reductions were ordered because enrollmentfigures forecast by the state's Office of Program Planning and Fiscal Management (OPP FM) did notmaterialize. Gov. Dan Evans later vetoed the measure, but it will be brought up again this January. AFTposition papers insisted on the "primacy of the instructional program" and demanded that instructionalbudget cuts "come only after the exercise of every other possible means of saving money," but cutswere still forecast. Local AFT President J. Kaye Faulkner of the economics and business departmenthas tried (thus far unsuccessfully) to impress upon legislators the need to hold back on the cuts.Faulkner does not fit the stereotype of the professorial scholar. At home in the classroom or in the laborhall, Faulkner puts the problem facing the AFT quite simply: "We should be getting these bastards thatare oppressing us!" Faulkner has cultivated relationships with community and state labor leaders,playing down "the elite characterism, of We should get those bastards oppressing us. collegeprofessors" in discussions with labor. The local AFT chapter supported the oil chemical workers' strikeagainst Shell Oil last year, and Faulkner has expressed support for the striking retail clerks unionagainst the downtown Bon Marche. Languages face cut Unable to come up with concrete reductions infull-time equivalencies (FTEs), the foreign language department finds itself facing a sub-unit analysis bythe administration. Department chairman Walter Robinson said the department had been unable toguarantee around two of the seven FTSs r e q u i r e d in t he reduction-in-force policy of the college.The department was reduced from 19 to 12 FTEs in the Mischaikow report. Because of the uncertainties in the implementation of the reduction, the department's faculty has been reluctant to sign letters ofintent to participate in a reduction program. W e d n e s d a y , however; department members signed le t t e r s specifying which professor would do what in the reduction program. According to a Dec. 4memo to the department from the Academic Coordinating Committee (ACC), the letters of intent were tohave been signed and turned in by n o o n W e d n e s d a y or administration would have to start theirown sub-unit analysis in preparation to FTE reductions. The department's professors disagreecompletely with the policies of the Mischaikow committee in regard to reallocation and reduction inforce according to the letters signed Wednesday. The letter says the faculty signed "for humanitarianreasons" and agree to take part in the program. "If we do not- sign the letters," Eunice Faber said, "theadministration will implement its own sub-unit analysis for laying off faculty." Wednesday Loreh Webb of t h e ACC informed the department that they had already done a sub-unit analysis of the departmentand came up with reductions of 2.5 FTEs in French, 2 in German and Spanish, .25' in Russian andLinguistics, and none in- Classics. tf 7X gt;1^ Â£â€¢ HOLLY St. Di-C (dam _^^f gt;m_ ~MA!C% Sat.lOam-Sfn-s t^^~ * OM Wren's Â£ gt;cok,5 CootWkS Science Fiction. Faulkner sees Western'ssalvation lying with the legislature in January, and he has secured "explicit support" from the WhatcomCounty Central Labor Council, which represents most AFL-CIO affiliated unions in the county (the AFT is an AFL-CIO affiliate). The labor council has approved and sent to other councils a position papersupporting the right of faculty members to bargain collectively and strike,and ask for changes in tuitionand fees that would "enhance, rather than kill," the opportunities for working-class, students to attendcollege. According to Faulkner, this support would bind union lobbyists in Olympia to "massive support" for higher education funding. Besides asking for labor's lobby support, Faulkner plans to initiate acollege-wide faculty poll asking for institution of a collective bargaining agent, most likely the AFT. Most proposals aimed at easing the budget crisis were drafted by AFT members, i n c l u d i n g the Summer (Stanford) Plan, which would, in effect, hire professors for a three-quarter period. Besides keeping more professors employed by the college, the plan would stop older, tenured faculty members from teachingduring the summer session. A few members have resigned from the local AFT chapter, but Faulknersees the remaining It isn't another coffee club. We have an emotional commitment to action.'members (there are currently 167) as dedicated. "It is not simply another coffee club," he said. "We have an intellectual and emotional commitment \ to action." The increasing pace of the union's activities,which has drained Faulkner, has led to fewer meetings and more executive committee sessions, asituation Faulkner dislikes and promises to correct.. "Things have moved fast," he said. "We (theexecutive committee) are almost a shadow administration at this point." But he added, "You either trust us or you don't."

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

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

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

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

His hour-and-a-half set, his first liveappearance in eight months, featured a number ot Sleepy John Estes tunes, some Joseph Spencesongs and such obscure "classics" as "I Caught a Stranger in the House and I Busted Him With aClub," "Call Jesus on the Mainline and Tell Him What You Want" and a song about Billy the Kid,referred to by Cooder as "a snotty, half-wit slob." Personally, it was his stringwork that was impressive.In his hands the mandolin, usually a rather unobtrusive instrument, became a powerful, train-rolling forcebehind the vocals. His guitar playing was likewise fine - particularly the bottleneck stuff. There was aquality in his vocals that turned me off once or twice which is not to say his singing wasn't strong (itwas) or appropriate to the songs (it was). It just seemed that this young and talented White man's vocals were the result of a studied reproduction of the Black men w h o s e music he was predominantlyusing. Which brings me to the excellent film about 75-year-old Black singer-philosopher ManceLibscomb that preceded Cooder's set. Libscomb's rural, h a r d t i m e s b a c k g r o u nd produced anauthentic musical idiom that expressed very personal feelings about the human condition. Cooder'sHollywood hills reproductions of Sleepy John, for example, expressed the life-view of the man but failedto e l i c i t t h e d e ep e m o t i o n al-personal-attachment - to life of the original. Perhaps Cooder'suse of a small amplifier added to this effect. Perhaps I quibble. N o t w i t h s t a n d i n g thesereservations, Cooder's set contained many fine moments, the audience was very appreciative (a three-song encore was the result of a standing ovation) and the Program His mandolin became a GRRDGflSTREET GRRDGflS herb 1408 Garden St. I PLANTS |j SEEDS i i cactus | |g DISH GARDEN or ^H TERRARIUM PLANTS' || H and SUPPLIES |Â§ I f FOLIAGE PLANTS |S H PLANTERS ^ fÂ§ OPENSUNDAYS || ,MT.

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

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

Theschedule of times and dates for the teams is still being drawn up by the athletic departments of thevarious schools. The first meet is expected to be held several weeks'into Winter quarter. The 10member men's team will be led by Paul Simmerly, lone letterman and finalist in the 100 and 200 yardbreast strokes and medley relay in the Evco championship meet last year. One performer from last year, Robin Allen, diver, is a possible performer. Other competitors on the predominantly freshman teaminclude Bob Lytke, Jeff Smith, Greg Laing, Mark Davis, Bill Sawhill, Darrell Kimmerly, Joe Coverson, JeffMickle, and Doug Danner.

The second team, with a 3-1-1 record, will begin the action at 1 p.m. and the first team, 3-4, will take over at 2:30 p.m. After tomorrow's games the ruggers will rest until the start of the second half of the season in February. The top teams of each school will be fairlyclosely matched as far as season records are concerned. The UW, at 3-3, boasts two all-stars fromEngland and more experienced backs. The Viks will be coming off a two-week layoff as their game lastweekend against Surrey rugby club in Surrey B.C. was cancelled because of field conditions. After aslow start due chiefly to inexperience, Western has come on strong, with recent wins over WashingtonState University and the Seattle Rugby Club. Western combined with the best of the Chuckanut BayRugby Club for the win over Washington State. Paul Gawenko. Cindi Scott captured the women's titledefeating Nori Bowman. Nine men and four women competed Nov. 20 in the second annual turkey trot in which two men and women won turkeys for Thanksgiving. Myrnie McCormick was the fastest womanaround the two-mile course, covering the distance in 11:36. Kristine Olsen came closest to her predicted time, being off only 3:47. Dean Powers was the fastest man around the three-mile course, covering thedistance in 18:13.3. Jeff Schultz came closest to his predicted time, being off 34 seconds. In swimming competition, Syd Jacobs won the 550 meter breast stroke and the 100 meter individual medley to taketop honors for the women. Bruce Johnson won the 100 meter individual medley and the 50 meterbackstroke while Don Williams won the 50 meter freestyle and fly competition for the men. Nextquarter, men and women's basketball, racketball and swimming will be offered. In addition, wrestling andhandball will also be offered for the men. Dick Bartsch, director of Intramurals, suggested that ifstudents would like to see a particular sport or event offered, to contact him or leave a note at CarverGym 112 or 182. Western's Club basketball team, the Pele Fires, looks for their second win in a rowtomorrow when they take on Capilano College in West Vancouver, B.C. Tipoff time is scheduled for 7:30. The Fires, fresh off a rather convincing win over British Columbia Tech last Sunday, are regionalsgame. The Viks won the second game 16-14. The Viks then threw a scare into Portland StateUniversity, defending regional champs, by winning the second game before bowing 15-9, 13-15, 15-9.The tired Western team could no nothing against the University of Oregon Ducks in the last Fridaymatch, losing on their own mistakes 15-5, 15-4. Starting out fresh on Saturday the Viks came frombehind in both games to defeat Eastern Oregon, 16-14, 16-14. Lack of concentration appeared to beWestern's downfall in the first playoff game, against the University of Washington. The Huskiescapitalized on Viking mistakes to win easily, 15-4. 15-3. Next year's squad should have an abundance of experience as only one starter, Kathy Dooley and reserve spiker, Bev McKissick will be lost throughgraduation. a team that plays in spurts. The Fires lost their first two games of the year, then won four ina row, dropped two more and now are, hopefully, on another positive tangent following Sunday's win over B.C. Tech. The Fires are a young team, consisting of three sophomores and eight freshmen, and" are"starting to jell," according to coach Pete Burns. "We're playing more together now than even before this season. We're becoming a 'team' team." Burns cites a tough, "man to man" defense as the team'sstrongest attribute. Their biggest weakness, he points out, is their inconsistent snooting. The Fires shotonly 28 percent from the floor in their last loss, a 71-66 upset administered by a team from the WhidbeyIsland Naval Air station. The Fires have picked up wins over the faculty-alumni teams from Ferndale,Sehome, Meridian and Bellingham high schools. Their losses have been at the hands of AAU teamsfrom Victoria and Vancouver, B.D., the Nooksack Valley alumni and the Whidbey base team.Individually, Burns is very pleased with the recent emergence of postman Mike Anderson and forwardBrad Potter. The 6-4 Potter, a freshman from Longview, has been particularly impressive, averaging 18points per game during the last three contests. He scored 21 against B.C. Tech in a limited appearancewhich saw him sprain an ankle and lose a tooth. VfKmQ Sounders SCUBA LESSONS WINTERQUARTER Limited Class Size Register Now!

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

JANUARY 26th - THEGENIUS OF RANDY NEWMAN Newman is one of those highly adored cult figures with many people, butjust as many have yet to discover his wit and wisdom. He is a songwriter's songwriter. Harry Nilssonrecorded a whole album of just Randy Newman songs and one of Three Dog Night's earliest hits wasNewman's "'Mama told Me Not to Come." In fact, so many people have recorded songs by Randy Newman that everyone has heard a Newman tune at one time or another, whether you know it or not! A publicappearance by this notorious recluse is an event - And this will be his first ever and only appearance inthe Northwest!! FEBRUARY 16th - THE MICHAEL WHITE ENSEMBLE Whoever heard of WeatherReport?! Whoever heard of the Paul Winter Consort?! Whoever heard of Michael White?! Michael Whiteplays the violin. In years past he has appeared with performers like John Handy, Pharoah Sanders andJerry Hahn, as well as being a founding member of the excellent, but short-lived, Fourth Way. His presentgroup is one of the finest collections of musicians alive. Ed Kelley plays piano majestically, Prince Lashais the reed wizard and Kenneth Nash plays all sorts of percussion.

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

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

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

XXII BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1923 NO. 21 E IS STILL ON; M i r HAVE SIGNED UP School Annual Epitomizes all That is jrfest in School Life. ' The Klipsun epitomizes all that is best .in Normal School life. It is a record of achievement. Hundreds will keep and cherish it as a memorial of some of the happiest and finest days of their life. Everyone who has a hand in the task wants this year's book to be a monumental achievement, surpassing all previous attempts—a bood that, both in appearance and contents, all subsequent generations of students may strive in vain to equal. Two hundred fifty literary and illustrated pages bound in a beautiful blue Castillian. cover, an artistic and living record of Normal activities for 1922-23—will be this year's Klipsun. Eggert Burns and Robert Caulkins, Editor and Associate respectively, may never be literary genuises but they undoubtedly will put out a Year Book that will surpass both in size and quality any Annual ever put out by the Bellingham Normal. The Klipsun is put out. not in the interest of any individual nor any certain group of individuals but for the good of all the students of this school. As has been iterated and reiterated through the columns of this paper, the publishing of the Klipsun is a costly undertaking. Every student must put his HORACE RAHSKOPF, Debate Coach.

S-STORY TELLERS P DEBATE TEAM IS READY TO START For the past two weeks, members of the Leowyrhta or Story Telling Club have contributed their talent to eight programs. They have told stories to P. T. A. meetings, local and also those of near-by communities and assisted at several assemblies and missionary meetings. From all reports the girls are being enthusiastically received, and orders for programs are continuing to come in. Among other recent engagements they have filled are entertainments at Harmony, Lawrence, Sehome school, Washington school and a Presbyterian tea at the home.of Mrs. E. T. Mathes. The debate teams are being rapidly brought into shape for the Inter- Normal Triangular debate which takes place on the evening of Thursday, March 1. This debate has been an annual event between the three Normal schools of the state, since the offering of the Guy S. Allison cup by a Bellingham alumnus, two years ago. According to the rules of the contest the school which wins the cup for three successive years may claim permanent ownership. For the past two years Cheney has secured the judges decision; so the coming debate will decide whether or not the Allison cup will find a permanent home in her halls. In the debates this year, the affirmative team in every school will debate at home and the negative team will travel. The Bellingham negative team will go to Cheney; Cheney's negative EDITOR ELECTED FOR THE Mrs. Carl Irish, who has served as editor of the Messenger for the past quarter, was again selected for that position. Monday by the Board of Control at their regular meeting, her re-election being based upon efficient service during her previous incumbency. The choice of a trained editor for a second term is a decided step toward a better type of school paper, a demand for which has been insistently expressed by students and faculty. B. S. N. S.

If you have one you are willing to lend, please report to Angus Bowiner immediately. Projects Attracting Attention. On Friday, February 23, students of the Normal will be given an opportunity to view the projects completed this quarter by students of the Industrial Are department. These projects will be on exhibit in room 108. BLUE AND WHITE BRING BACK THE STATE TITLE The results of the four games played in the Eastern part of the state during the past week, gave to the Bellingham Normal the much coveted title of Champions of the Washington Normals. The eastern trip was made by Coach Carver and eight players, the group leaving on Monday morning and returning Sunday. The first two games were played at Ellensburg, Bellingham winning the first game 26 to 22 and losing the second game 27 to 31. The third game was played at Cheney with the Cheney Normal, the final score being 33 to 27 in favor of Carver's men. It was the result of this game that the Bellingham fans so patiently awaited, as on the result hinged the Blue and White's chances for the state title. The fourth game "was pin yed with Spokane College, with a resulting score of 17 to 39 in favor of Spokane College. The three games in which the Blue and White hoopsters had participated required all their pep and consequently they could not handle Spokane college as they had wished. The student body as well as the many Bellingham followers of the game, have nothing but praise for Carver and his team. The games played this season and the scores are as follows: Normal, 50; Edison, 15 Normal, 74; Ferndale, 12. Normal. 34; Fairhaven, 17. Normal 48: Y. M. C. A., 23. Normal, 44; Blaine H. S., 25.

The school which wins the largest number of votes from the nine judges at the three debates, is the winner for the year. The Bellingham affirmative team which debates Ellensbtirg here is composed of Christina. Peterson, Mildred Anderson and Lewis Arnold. The Bellingham team which goes to Cheney, consists of Rebecca Arnell, Frank D. Henderson, and Charles L. Simon son. They will be accompanied by Mr. Rahskopf, debate coach, and Miss Mabel Shuey. This team expects to leave Bellingham on the afternoon train, Wednesday, February 28. The judges for the local debate with Ellensburg are: Professor Frank Laube, of the University of Washington; the Rev. Paul B. James, Christ Church, Seattle; and Judge Austin E, Griffiths, of the Superior Court of the State of Washington. B. S. N. S. The Campus Walk. 0 campus walk, 0 campus walk, how long thou art today, I'm tardy every morning; I was tardy yesterday. T hurry up the stairway, I hasten up the street, But the bell has always rung when T reach the classroom seat. 0 campus w~alk, 0 campus walk, how long thou art today. The cold north wind is blowing and the sky is dark and grey. The ice is very slippery and my feet will go astray, 'Tis a perilous business I can say. 0 campus walk, 0 campus walk, how brief thou art tonight. The tasks of day are over and the sun is put to flight, The moon has just arisen and the stars are shining too. Like eyes they are shining from the blue. 0 campus walk, 0 campus walk, how happy I should be If your brief expanse would lengthen To a never-ending path, To a never-ending pathway only trod, by him and me, Oh, paradise on earth it would be! —E. D. T. B. S. N. S. The fresh spring breezes were blowing through the open windows of the school room, and George Washington was the momentous question in hand. "Why do you think George Washington was the first man?" asked the teacher. "Because he was 'first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen'." Another boy then i-aised his hand. "Well, Johnny,- who do you think was the first man?" said the teacher. "Don't know his name," answered Johnny, "but I know George Washington was not the first man, 'cause my history says he married a widow, so there must have been a man ahead of him." KLIPSUN DRIVE IS STILL ON; MANY HAVE SIGNED UP. (Continued from Page One) or her shoulder to the wheel and push with all the strength of the price of one Klipsun, $2.50. OLIVER LNUERSOLL, Business Manager. Miss Keeler Boosts Klipsun. "All live, energetic, enthusiastic, and active students should support all worthwhile school activities," said Miss Keeler recently. "The Klipsun is certainly worth while and I cannot imagine any student leaving this school without one." Mr. Klemme Wo Dead Wire. •'This year's. Klipsun will be my eight-tenth," said Mr. Klemme. "I have saved one every year and I certainly do not regret it." Mr. Bond "Signs Up." "Of course I'll sign up for a iKlipsun," and Mr. Bond had affixed his signature and was off. Mr. Kibbe Values Klipsun. "I am keeping a library of Klipsuns," said Mr. Kibbe. "I value them very highly, and have tried to keep one of each issue." B. S. N. S. THAT SERIOUS LOOK. When you see a lad with a serious look, With a face that's grave and stern, Who acts as if he'd swallowed a book, In his great desire to learn, Don't form an opinion on the spot, As he's probably not to blame. His stack of hots, perhaps came late, And his stomach is playing a game. His mush he hid in no seconds flat, And the Java he took on the fly; So the balance of the day he wanders about, With a serious look and a sigh. . The teacher says, as he passes along, "What a serious lad, that boy, He's surely making some mother glad, Some children are really a joy." His mother says, at home that night. "You're working too hard, I'm afraid, Don't try to do all of your work in a day, To over-work, never has paid. I suggest that you let up a- bit, Go take in a movie or two. 'Twill help to remove that serious look. You act so down-hearted and blue." "Dear mother,' says he, "my guess is you're right, ' The Prof, says, Tm carrying a load.'" But after the show, as a midnight repast, He fills up on pie a-la-mode, So when you gaze on the serious look, Don't judge, but leave just a question, For the chances are. that the look you see, Is the result of more indigestion. B. S. N. S.- A "Billet-Doux." She was a winsome country lass, So William on a brief vacation, The time more pleasantly to pass, Essayed flirtation. And while they strolled in twilight dim, As near the time of parting drew, Asked if she would have from him A "billet-doux." Now this simple maid of French knew naught, But doubting not 'twas something nice, Shyly she lifted her pretty head Her rosy lips together drew and coyly said, "Yes, Billy—do," ~ - - And William did.

S.— During the past few weeks there has been a general complaint among students To "the effect "that" "there' has" "not been a large enough supply of messengers. The Board of Control, last Monday, authorized Mr. Ford to increase the number of copies-of the Messenger to meet the demand. ---------- Weekly Messenger - 1923 February 23 - Page 3 ---------- BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 23,1923 _ Z GIRLS HAVE FIRST GAME OF BASKETBALL MONDAY The first scheduled game of the girls' basketball was played Monday in the small gym, between the Alley Gang and Edens Hall. The game was interesting but one-sided; the Alley Gang team winning from the Edens Hall team by a score of 46 to 13. Remarkable team work was shown in the winning team. The guards took advantage of every opportunity to check the ball, and the forwards seemed to merely look at the ball to make a basket. The Edens Hall team was one chosen from girls who live in Edens Hall.

They seemed to float thru the mystic ether impelled by the rythmic throb of the music. The sleek-haired gentleman glanced confidently over the moving crowd, then down at his comely partner. Demurely she smiled back at him. All eyes were upon the pair. Who could they be? Was this some famous royal pair escaped by devious paths from the clutches of the raving reds of Russia? Could it be two at whose beck and call the most graceful dancers of an emipre once performed, now forced to entertain others for a mere pittance? No, such was not the case. Could it not then be two famous danssants stopping for a pleasant moment at the Bellingham Normal? Might not that flashing eye, those graceful movements belong to Mische Itoe himself? Might not the lithe lady be none other than the- one and only Madame Pavola ? No, it was none of these, it was actually Bill McNeil and Bee Anderson, showing the grace and form which won for them the prize trot Friday. The prize trot was such a success that it has been decided to continue it. The latest thing the social committee is considering is a prize for the whole quarter. A realty worth-whle reward will be given, the opinion so far favoring a watch. Position, grace, appearance, and general conduct on the dance floor will be the deciding factors. Bill and Bee have the inside track now, so the other Valentinos and Irene Castles will have to start early and avoid the rush. NORMAL GROCERY We Cater to Normal Student Trade.

Saturday night, February 17, the Phi-lomathean club of the Bellingham Normal School, held their annual banquet in the Pheasant Tea Rooms at 0:30 o'clock. To say the least, the banquet was a wonderful success and will long be remembered as a red letter day on each Philomathean's calendar of time. The Tea Rooms were very attractively decorated in the Philo colors, green and white, boxwood shrubs, and the Philo emblem, while pussy willows, green and white streamers, and green candles decorated the long white table. The five-course banquet dinner was proclaimed ''marvelous" and ••great" by 50 hungry Philomatheans, and each did healthy justice to it. At each plate was an attractive little place card containing a booklet which held the name and program and carried out the Philo emblem. After the banquet dinner a very interesting program was given as follows : Toastmaster Herbert Cederberg Song Donna ,K1 inker "Philo Husbands" Roswell Oliver Piano Solo Dorothy Clark "Philo Wives" Mrs. Sam Carver Group of Songs Margaret Saddler "Philo Students" Robert Tunst-all Duet Dorothy Clark, Byron Payne This annual banquet given by the Philos is always attended by a large number of alumni Philos who take this opportunity to get acquainted with the new Philo members; thus establishing a stronger union and good fellowship among all of the club members.

WE SOLICIT THE NORMAL ACCOUNTS "Washington summers are unequalled, and I've surely been treated royally since I came here last August," said Mrs. Emma Whipple, one of our most charming far-away students, who came to Bellingham last August from Wadena, Minnesota. "I only intended to visit here, but I found Bellingham such a wonderful place that I decided to take a course in music supervision at the Normal," declared Mrs. Whipple, as she modestly consented to be interviewed. Mrs. Whipple has taught piano lessons for twenty years, and she is scheduled to teach Fundamentals of Music next quarter. She is also a keen student of nature, and is much interested in agriculture. For ten years she was connected with the Agricultural department of the Minnesota State Fair, and she was the means of winning a silver loving cup for her county. If you are weary of lesson plans, and the strain of the end-of-the-term tests, seek Emma Whipple, and the sunshine of her smile will make life seem more worth while. B. S. N. S.

Greater support and co-operation from the student body was stated as one of the things needed by the social committee. The committee hopes that more students will realize that it is not a mere.go-between but a body with a very definite mission. It is not a negative group trying to tell anyone what not to do, but is a very positive group, working toward the goal of the most and best social activities possible. Under the regime of this year's social committee a great deal has been done. An unusually large number, of dances have been fostered by the committee, and some actually given under its supervision, as the Friday afternoon dances. Play hours have been provided, that all may be entertained. In every way the committee has tried to aid and further social activities of all sorts, but it is willing to admit that more might be done. The best way to get more done is by co-operation from the student body. In the matter of dance posture, the best possible spirit has been shown. There has been a ready response to all requests for what few changes in posture and style the committee has deemed it wise to ask for; but on the other hand there has been a great fault of omission. People have been heard to mumble, "Why don't we have more of this? or better of that?" But when pinned to just what they want and how it can be secured, they don't know that. That the committee is open to suggestions and will work on them is shown by the way it took up and put into effect concrete suggestions that were made for better music on Fridays and Mondays. If you really want something and have some advice to offer, see the committee. Cooperation means bigger things with less work. Give the committee a helping hand. This social committee, under whom precedent on dance events is being made wants to set a standard for future events. —V. G. L. B. S. N. S.- HOW WELL CAN YOU SPELL? You may be clever and studious but if you can't spell correctly , you are like a violinist with one of his violin strings broken. Judge Edwin S. Thomas of Hartford, Conn., gave a spelling test to several government officials, lawyers, and big business men. The test consisted of ten words in common use. These words were: Supersede, innuendo, inoculate, rarefy, vilify, repellent, plaguy, embarrass, harass, and picnicking. These are all words that one can use in ordinary conversation without getting a reputation for having digested "Webster's knowledge. Yet not one of these business men could spell all ten correctly. SEE WORTH WHILE MOVIES. Are you careful to select moving pictures that are worth seeing? A great many of your opinions and ideas are unconsciously formed as a result of the movies you select as recreation. These opinions you, consequently, impart to your friends. It is of vast importance whether or not your opinions and ideas are the right and proper kind. See pictures that will benefit you morally and mentally. See pictures that will miake you a little better. In this way, by patronizing worth-while pictures, you yourself will help censor the wrong kind of movies. B.S. N. S. What does the beginning of the new quarter mean to you? Do you consider it as an opportunity to be made the most of, or do you consider it as one more quarter of necessary drudgery?

"An island is a body of land completely surrounded by water," states "Dynamite," famous endman in the W. A. A. minstrel show. Reveille Island is far more than that. It is one of the beauty spots to be seen in a trip to the head of Lake Wnatcom and it is the source of interesting tradition and probable historical facts. Reveille is situated a mile or so above Nbrmalstad and forms an added attraction to our eighty acres. Normal students will probably become very familiar with the island as the eighty becomes improved. The island rises high above the water in a betutiful dome, covered with evergreen trees and underbrush. The sides of the island slope abruptly into the lake, leaving no beach and adding to the beauty of its form. Two thrilling traditions are told of the island. Many, many years ago, when this country was first settled, by white people the Indians fought, hard for their hold on the territory. Their last stand was made upon this little island in the center of Lake Whatcom. The English soldiers besieged' the little tribe and after a plucky show of endurance, starvation threatened. The Indians, being true warriors, would not surrender and so one morning just as the sun was peeping over the surrounding hills, they silently threw themselves into the lake and sank out of sight. As the last man disappeared the sweet tones of the morning reveille floated across the still water from the English camp. The island has since borne the name of "Reveille." Over two hundred years ago the territory around Lake Whatcom was claimed by an Indian tribe as their hunting ground. Their t war-like neighbors desired this valuable ground and war ensued. The defending tribe secreted itself in the underbrush on the island. As the enemy approached in canoes some slight movement disclosed the hiding place of the Islanders. A furious fight followed, both tribes launched in canoes', sending arrows at their enemies and trying to tip their canoes. Many Indians from both sides were soon trashing around in the blood-stained Avater. Suddenly they were one and all drawn steadily under the water and their frenzied cries brought help from their friends. As they grasped the hands of their rescuers the pulling increased and the remaining canoes were capsized. One Indian alone escaped and spread the news of the dreadful undertow that surrounds the island. To this day no Indian of the Puget Sound tribes has been bribed, coaxed, threatened or persuaded in any manner to set foot in a boat on the waters of the "Devil's" Lake. ---------- Weekly Messenger - 1923 February 23 - Page 5 ---------- BELLINGHAM, WASinN^ .0/:: NormatSoto 'Mildred Boyd, Dorothy Austin,. an:l Loris Jacklin motored with friends to their homes; in Seattle for the. weekend.

Arrangements have been made so that her credits for this quarter will not be lost. It was hoped that a crowd could be gathered to attend the Washington State College Giee Club entertainment at Mt.

Miss Ke'eler and Miss Cummins en-tertaned for Dr. Nash Sunday evening by inviting in a number of his friends for a few hours of pleasant conversation.

"Will they all come? Did you see those funny little kid games on the tab'o. girls? Parehesi, table horseshoe, checkers, and lots' of others. I bet they'll have' a "good time, don't you? Miss Slmey said not to disarrange the furniture, .Agnes." Scene II. The scene, and the view is changed. The girls arc back from the party downstairs, and are interested in what is going on in the social hall. No one seems to be a bit sleepy.. "Goodness, is the faculty still there? I thought they'd gone. Is there any cake left? You' go and see, no one will see you, there are some girls in the kitchen, you can find put from them. You, couldn't get any? What a shame.

"Say, girls, run, here conies Miss Long and Mr. Philippi with the dishes. Don't let them catch us here." They, run down the back stairs. "My, that Avas a scare; I never ran down stairs so fast in my life. Well, I guess they are going. We can get back safely tliis way.' Yes, they are going! There are on'y two couples on the floor now, aren't there? That's Dr. Miller. I believe he's just learning. He is going to stay till the last dog is hung. He certainly is human. He has a good time, doesn't he?. There, the lights are out. Let's go and see if there is anything left." " The girls quietly approach the social hall, and finding all quiet they enter the room recently so merry. "I found a valentine. I. bet it was the first prize. Whoever won it was more interested in the dance than the prize, evidently." "Is there anything in the kitchen?". "Nothing but some lump sugar." "Oh, dear, a n d ! got so hungry watch- 'n lt;r Mr. Heckman dance!" "Let's go to bed; We don't need any devil's food anyway." "Good night, ladies; Good night ladies." The crowd disperses, and quiet reigns once more. -B. S. N. S. iTUDENT LOAN FUND EXPLAINED BY DR. MILLER Few of us.ever give a thought to the Student Loan Find. In fact a surprising number of students did not know that such a fund existed, until Dr. Miller spoke of it in assembly on Monday. At present, this fvnd exceeds $17,000. and in the last year, over two hundred students have received aid. This loan is for the sole purpose of he'ping students who can not otherwise graduate, or who are in serious financial difficulties, it is not for personal convenience, and is not a scho'arship fund. To receive this loan, the student must apply to the faculty committee. After the committee has approved, the loan mav then .be obtained at the registrar's office. Money will not be loaned to pjop'c who have poor grades, when someoir: with higher grades needs the help. Students are urged to piy b gt;ck this loan as quickly as possib'e. It is nr-t necessary to return the loan in one sum. B. S. N. S.- D'uiarhter: "A certain young man sent some flowers this morning." Mother: "Don't .say 'a certain young, man,' my dear.

LEGISLATIVE NEWS DIRECT FROM OLYMPIA A bill has been introduced into the legislature which will make the state normals, four year teachers' colleges. If the bill is passed, the normals wi'l then have power to grant degrees in Bachelor of Arts and teach major lines for the professional training of teachers, school superintendents and school supervisors. They would also be able to train high school teachers. This would undoubtedly increase the enrollment thereby' add to the importance and prestige. The teachers' pension was made state wide when it was passed by the" legislature, last week. This is the same law which is in practice in some of the larger cities. B. S. N.

Title—The Unexpected Reply. The lesson in picture appreciation that I observed was in splendid progress. The children were able to name at on;e every picture that was described to them. F'n-ally "The Shepherd's Star" was described to the class and everyone named it correctly. The the pleased and enthusiastic teacher asked, "Now why are you so sure it was 'The Shepherd's Star' and not the "Song of the Lark?" They are very much alike and can be easily confused." • • . ' Up shot Doris' hand, and she was accordingly called upon. "It would have to be "The Shepherd's Star" because the "Song of the Lark" isn't here anymore. You took it away yesterday." -—-Order Your Klipsun Carl (passionately): "Margaret, darling, I have a secret to whisper into your ear—where is it?" I wonder if there is anyone in school who does not know the women's assistant physical education director? I'm sure everyone has missed something arid' someone who is an inspiration arid guide to higher things if they do not. N,o one '.would thnk we have such a noteworthy character in our midst as Miss Regina Frank. •"-;'.•'; Miss Frank is a graduate of the Rel-lingham State Normal school; and of the American College of Physical Education, Chicago, Illinois. " While in this Chicago school of physical educaton, Miss Frank was a leader in all sports. In the fall term the girls turn out for field hockey and soccer—the teams are chosen in November and all the games are inter-class games. In the winter the girls turned out for vol-, ley ball. Miss Frank was a member of each team. Volley ball is the popular game in the east, and the American P.. E. College entered the Chicago tournament. Thirteen games were played and in each the Chicago College of Physical Education wei'e victorious, and won the gold cup trophy which was offered by the Amateur Athletic Federation. In the spring, indoor baseball, track horseback riding and swimming were the sports which Miss Frank also took; up. . An honor emblem is offered by the Chicago Physical Education college for. the two best all ''around athletes in the school. We are not surprised to learn that Miss Frank was one of the two girls winning the honor emblem.. An all around athlete, is a wonderful asset to any school and more so when they can be a guide for other girls in being all round athletes also, and we count ourselves fortunate in having Miss Frank as our assistant physical education director.

There was a superfluity of smiles and good cheer throughout their whole domain. Now, what was the meaning of all this excitement? It was for no other reason than that the pupils felt the presence of Dan Cupid flitting around the halls and in their class rooms. Dan Cupid was personified and represented by the large number of pupils who, with a mysterious letter or package in their hand would direct their footsteps to a certain large box placed upon a "pedestal" in one corner of the hallways. This "postoffice" was filled to overflowing with letters and packages sealed with red hearts the most of which bore the title "To My Valentine." What was inside of the envelopes we can only guess, but at any rate they all bore the good will and loving wishes of Dan Cupid on Valentine's Day. B. S. N.

Stanford University, Feb. 12. Hazing died a sudden death at Stanford. Tom Irwin, editor of the Daily Palo Alto, decided at the time he received his hazing when a Freshman at Stanford, that he would go on the trail of partakers of these yearly festivities or "spanking bees." On January 31, of this year, Mr. Irwin caught seven Sophomores of Erims hall red-handed. The hall was given the alternative of agreeing to abandon the traditional method of discipline and adopt a system of Senior control, or of having exa*mples made of the seven. The sophomores decided to discontinue their methods . Their decision was also followed by Sequoit hall. The Chinook, Seattle: West Seattle High is boosting for cleanliness and asks: "What do you do with your wastepaper ?" "'What do you do with the papers when you clean out your lockers?" " Do you leave them lying around or do you put them away." We can honestly say that our halls, locker rooms are respectable as far as cleanliness is concerned and hope to keep them that way. The Ocean Breeze, Aberdeen: The editor comments upon success being achieved only by work. A great personality or a strong will power will not gain success for you unless you back up either of these two qualities with hard work. A person who may lack a strong personality and who is very meek may rise into the limelight if he works. Too many people are afraid of their tasks and shirk doing them. And according to the editorial if you are one of the latter join Coue's followers and say to yourself every morning, "I like Work." ' B. S. JST. S. The Right Size. It is said that once, when President Washing-ton was riding near Washington City, with a party of gentlemen, their horses leaped a rock fence: the last steed over kicked off several stones. "Better replace those," suggested the general. "Oh, someone will do that!" was the careless reply. When the riding party disbanded, Washington turned his horse, and rode back the way they had come; dismounting, he carefully replaced the stones. "Oh, general!" chattered a friend who came along, "you are too big to be doing that!" "Oh, no," replied Washington, as he stood gravely inspecting his work. "I am just the right size." HOTEL LEOPOLD LUNCHEON 60c Table d'Hote Dinner $1.00 Sam Rathman's Orchestra 6 to 8 p. m. Special Sunday Evening Dinner $1.25 BUSINESS GIRLS' LEAGUE DISCUSS GIRLS' FINANCES An enthusiastic crowd of Business Girls met at the Dean's hour, Tuesday, February 20, to continue the discussion of Investment, held over from the Forum of February 6th. Marjorie Westall opened the discussion on the topic "How Can a Business Girl get along with less than $25 in the spring quarter above the cost of board and room." The speaker believes that this could be done if the girls kept their health and had their spring wardrobe to begin with. It developed that at least 13 young women are making out their spring budget with the expectation of spending less than $25 during the spring quarter above cost of room and board. Vergie Glance led the discussion on "What to do with $25 above living expenses." After a very animated exchange of views, the group decided on the following approximate division: I. Registration $4 to $6. (Lecture course 75c, nurse' physician 50c. Messenger, social life and athletics $1.50). II. Books, $4 to $6. III. School supplies, $3 to $5. IV. Miscellaneous, $5. (Toilet articles, stationery, stamps, ear fare, etc.) V. Religious work and philanthropy, $2.50. VI. Social and literary clubs (additional to 1) $2.00. VII. Cultural Advantages, $1.00; lectures and concerts in addition to I above. VII. (Optional) Clothes, savings or traveling, $5 to $10. Recreation in addition to I( VI and VII found in walking, hiking, birds or some other nature hobby and cultivation of friendships. Thirty Business Girls have limited their expense to $25.00 for the Spring Quarter. How would you spend $50.00 above living expenses? $100.00? In discussing the distribution of $50. and $100 respectively, above living expenses, the group decided that the difference should allow an increase in philanthropy, clubs, cultural advantages and provide a definite sum for clothes, traveling and savings. Fifteen girls of the group are planning to spend more than $25.00 above living expense in the spring quarter. Joy Taylor spoke on the budget system, advising her colleagues to eliminate foolish purchases and worthless entertainments in order to have money for things really worth while. In discussing the health of the Business Girl, it was unanimously conceded that no girl should undertake working unless she had good health and every Business Girl should see to it that she kept her good health through regular habits and by steadfastly refusing to be overworked. A pleasing diversion was furnished by the reading of two original poems from the pen of Aladine La Rouche by Irene Hoyt, both Business Girls. The sixth annual banquet of the Business Girls' League will be held March 24th at the Normal. B. S. N. S. In a grade school in a western city, on the 22nd of February, a teacher asked this question: "Who can tell me whose birthday this is?" A girl rose timidly. "Well, Margaret, you may tell us," said the teacher. "Mine," came the unexpected reply. NEWTON'S Incorporated WOMEN'S APPAREL OF QUALITY The HOME STORE 1312-14 BAY STREET . A.

The Alkisiah club banquet, which was held at the Hotel Leopold Friday evening, was voted a complete success by all members present. Covers were laid for forty-five.' A color scheme of purple and gold the club colors, was effectively carried out KILAUEA Speaking of Dante's "Inferno," Mrs. Bunting thinks she has had a glimpse of it. To standupon a narrow ledge one hundred feet above a steaming cauldron of fiery red molten lava, is a thrilling experience, but—it is at the same time terrible in its awful beauty. At least Mrs. Bunting so discovered when she watched, fascinated, the seething lava of (Kilauea volcano on the largest island of the Hawaiian group, steadily rise until it overflowed the mouth of the pit. As you probably know, lava in the molten stage, flows with about the same consistency- as -molasses: conse quentlv, one can back up before it. "However," laughed Mrs. Buntiny, "one usuallv keeps a respectful distance. You know.' it's really hot." At frequent intervals fountains of fire caused by currents, send spouts like sky rockets into the air. thus causing the most brilliant fireworks and giving an intense and lurid glow sometimes as high as one mile above the crater. It was upon April 3. 1921,' that Mrs. Bunting, with a small party, visited Kilauea volcano. Arrivinsr at noon they found the lava about one hundred feet below the narrow ledge upon Avhich they first ventured out to look down into that turmoil of moving lava. It rose steadily until it had overflowed the rim bv one mile at two o'clock in the morn-ing. "Then." said Mrs. Bunting, "we left, only to find in the morning that the flow had covered two and one-half miles and had reached the foot of the cliff, upon which stood the volcano house or inn. According to Professor Jaeger, the voleanolosrist who lives there, it was the highest and most rapid recorded rise in fortv years." As the fiery cataract flows out. ser-pertine and irregular, from its crater, the lava glowed darkly red thru the crust formed bv the contact with cooler air. The horrible beauty of this molten river was further accentuated by the strong and suffocating gases escaping with a hissing murmur from the lava pit and thru the chasms of the mountain. Upon the lake of fire float two detached islands used, much as a guage. to measure the rise and fall of the lava. These islands, it is said, made their appearance in a most unique way. Without apparent reason the two shot up from the depths of the lava, and since have remained. One of the islands has with daffodils and tulle. The favors were tiny purple booklets filled with candies. May Phinney acted as toastmistress. The program of the evening consisted of toasts on the club traditions. Several musical selections were also given. a cone-like cave resembling the mouth of a whale. When currents from different directions run into the cave, it seems as if the wnale cannot swallow so spurts out the lava with the most orilliant gushes. The HaAvaiians have a beautiful myth woven about .the volcano. Acordingc to the earliest legends, Pele (Pili), the goddess of fire. dAvells here. When she is happiest the gloAV above the volcano is brightest and the lava is the highest. About the volcano is found Pele's hair. Clinging to rocks about the mountain it resembles spun glass, and is the result of molten lava blown and hardened by the Avind. Legends further relate how the small, bright stones found here and there in the lava are Pele's tears. They are of topaz color and when hard enough are used for jewels. "When Ave Avent up the mountain to the pit," said Mrs. Bunting. "Ave passed over a Avell-marked trail OArer the old lava, called pahoehoe, but Ave did not return the same wav for the simple reason that we couldn't. NeAv lava (aa) had completely covered the trail and since the crusted surface Avas not' quar-anteed to remain surface if a step Avere taken upon it, Ave returned bv auto road, a detour of seven miles, to the inn."

FRESHMEN WIN KLINE CUP GAME (Continued from Page One) first /Kline Cup game. The Sophomores hold the cup at present, so it was with blood boiling that the Freshies entered the game. From the first toss-up the spectators knew that it was to be a hard fought game. At the close of the first quarter the score stood 12 to 10 in favor of the Sophs. During the second quarter the Freshies tried to make up the two scores of the previous quarter but failed. By the end of the half the score was 16 to 14 still in favor of the Sophomores. During the intermission of halves, however, the Freshies were revived or perhaps they were just getting warmed up, for by the close of the third quarter they; held the highest score, 24 to 18. . Too; much credit could not be given Agnes Tweit for her creditable playing. "Aggie" seemed to have laid a charm over the ball and basket; so rapidly did she run up the score during the latter part of the third quarter. The Sophomores did some notable team work during the last quarter, their star being Mollie Curtis. But for all the attempts they could not cover up the lost scores and the game ended with a final score of 29 to 24 in favor of the Freshmen.

A joint student-administration committee will submit arecommendation to acting Vice President for Business and Financial Affairs Peter Harris by the end of next week. If Harris agrees with the recommendation, bidding will open to local banks Jan. 22.Western officials have approached three area banks, Bel-lingham National Bank, WhatcomEducational Credit Union and U.S. Bank Corporation, parent company to ONB, with tentative proposals. While BNB representatives expressed no interest in the venture, Carlson said, WECU and ONB andother interested parties are expected to submit proposals to Western.

After considering an appeal broughtby Western's men's rugby club, Associated Students Adviser Jack Smith chose to uphold Club SportsAdviser Marie Sather's Nov. 5 decision to suspend the team.- Smith, however, lightened the punishment. Steve Biggs, team president, said he will appeal to higher university officials and the American CivilLiberties Union. "Rugby funding comes out of our money as students, from the student activities fund,and that's one reason why it should be up to us as students to make these kind of decisions," Biggssaid. Smith sent a memo to Biggs Nov. 19 stating that the team is suspended through fall quarter,1988, and may apply for reinstatement in winter, 1989. Biggs appealed Sather's decision tosuspend the club through the 1988-89 school year. Biggs claimed article five of the Club Sport Council'sconstitution states authority to suspend teams rests with the council. As part of the appeal process,Smith requested Sather call a meeting of the council and have members vote on the issue. The councilmet Nov. 17 in a closed meeting and voted 7-5 in favor of the suspension. The constitution states athree-fourths majority is required to suspend a team, but Smith's memo stated that "a 7-5 majority is aclear indication to the administration that the above action is necessary." Biggs said he plans toappeal Smith's decision to Saundra Taylor, vice president for student affairs. He said he also plans tocontact an area American Civil Liberties Union representative to find out more about the validity of theteam's claim that proper procedure was violated in the decision. He said unless it is specifically stated that scmeone else has the power to decide the rugby club's Please see RUGBY, p.15 DLI hearsWestern appeal of asbestos violations fine By ANDREA LIGHTBURNE staff reporter The StateDepartment of Labor and Industries began hearing, Tuesday, Western's appeal of $3,700 in fines itreceived in August for the handling of asbestos in Carver Gym. The DLI will continue to heartestimony from representatives from the state department and trade and custodial union and Westernofficials Dec. 17 before reaching a decision. The first four violations were addressed at Tuesday's hearing and the remainder will be discussed at the second. Western was cited for 19 violations of the state'sasbestos removal code for the handling of asbestos during a floor tile removal and replacement project.Workers sanded the existing tile with burnishing machines using 20 weight sandpaper. The tilescontained asbestos and the sanding broke the encapsulated asbestos allowing it to be released into theair. The state department ordered the gym closed after it conducted tests which disclosed high levels of asbestos. The gym was not closed immediately but instead remained open until departmentinvestigator Robert Parker threatened to close the gym with a court order. Western closed the gymand a professional asbestos removal company came in and cleaned up the area. Western officialsthought the procedure was safe and did not believe that the sanding would release the asbestos into theair. Officials thought the procedure of closing the gym was confusing. Three of the fines were classified as "serious." Management did not provide proper respirators for the workers on the project, failed toinform the custodians after the work area was identified as hazardous and allowed them to continue their regular cleanup without safety equipment. Bill Chervenock, campus union representative, said the finaldecision for DLI fine is to be made by a DLI hearing examiner. Chervenock, who attended the hearing,said several violations may be supported by the examiner because Western officials knew tilescontained asbestos before sanding. ---------- Western Front - 1987 December 4 - Page 2 ---------- 2 WESTERN FRONT FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4,1987 Bank machine bids open soon Continued fromCASH, p.1 the committee's suggestions, which Carlson said is not likely, the recommendation will bereturned for revision. The committee, chaired by Vice President for Student Affairs Saundra Taylor, iscomprised of Wood, AS Activities Director Trent Wheatley, Viking Union Director Jack Smith, Assistant Controller Ron Ballough and Carlson. Originally, the recommendation was to be approved inNovember by the late Vice President for Business Financial Affairs Donald Cole. The bank machine was to begin operating by the end of January. Action on the bank machine was delayed by Cole's death last month when a plane carrying him, President G. Robert Ross and Vice President for University Ad-vancement Jeanene DeLille crashed. The recommendation outlines the kinds of services needed in anon-campus bank machine, how AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETYÂ® revenue from the machine -- if any- would be divided, and what changes in the Plaza Cashier operations would be necessary toaccommodate the bank machine, Carlson said. Although she would give no details until therecommendation receives formal approval, Carlson said revenues derived from each bank machinetransaction would be divided between the general university fund and the Associated Students non-profit scholarship fund. Included in the committee's considerations are the potential ramifications of abank machine to the Plaza Cashier. Because the bank machine will draw some customers away fromthe Plaza Cashier, it will be necessary to shorten the number of hours the business is open to thepublic, Carlson said. Although the installation of the bank machine is expected to affect the flow ofmoney across the university's cashier counter to an annual loss of between $10,000 and $15,000,Carlson said she ex-f G 6 t Advertise } I Lucky %Z I ( ^ 6 7 6 - 3 1 6 1 J pects the bank machine alsowill operate at a deficit. "At a cost of 10 cents per transaction, the ATM would have to be in operation 12 hours a day, with transactions every three minutes, in order to break even," Carlson said. The cost ofbreaking even is about $14,000, the estimated price of the purchase and upkeep of a bank machine, butthe overall benefits and convenience of the service make it "a good idea," she said. The university,however, is hoping to secure a deal where a bank would purchase and install a free-standing machine inthe Viking Union lobby in return for a percentage of transaction revenues and the additional patronagethe bank might receive from Western students. Carlson said even though it is difficult for a single bankmachine to move into the black, banking institutions consider the overall operation of automatic tellers to be profitable.

SexInformation Center coordinator Bob Olsen left the Nov. 25 meeting disgruntled. "It seemed like (thename change) was going fine, but now it seems like it backfired. "I don't care what the name is now."The disagreement between board members and t he c e n t e r ' s coordinators prompted the board toset a public hearing for the second week in January. Tanya Bradford, assistant coordinator of the SexInformation Center, proposed the center's name be changed to Sexual Awareness Center. Bradfordreceived unanimous approval for the change from the Human Resource Advisory Council. HRACcomprises representatives from the eight AS offices in the Viking Union. The Activities Council alsoapproved the name change unanimously. Bradford said the new name would help disband the belief thatthe center just helped people learn about sexual intercourse. "We do more than talk about sex, buttalk about a different issues of sexuality," Bradford said. She said the center helps people cope withattitudes, dreams and relationships. But some board members at the meeting didn't agree with themotion to change the name to Sexual Awareness Center. "I think it's important we pick the best title,"Trent Wheatley, board member said. "I can't support this motion." Board member Jeff Chandler agreedwith Wheatley. "I think it's incredibly important that it is explicit we convey certain connotations to focuson dissemination of information," Chandler said. Chandler moved to amend the motion by substitutingthe name Human Sexuality Information Center for Sexual Awareness Center. Bradford didn't expect theboard's proposal. "I don't like you to make a name change for us," Bradford told the board. "If you don'twant a change, say so, but we aren't going to play games all year." "This isn't a game," Chandler said."We need student info (to make an informed decision)," he said. "I don't think we have student info, I think you're the one playing the game." "What do you require?" Bradford said. "Do you want 9,000students commenting on the name?" Wheatley said he didn't know the best way to get studentcomment. "But I think there's a better way," he said. The board voted on the amendment to change thename to Human Sexuality Information Center. The amendment failed, 5-2, with Chandler and Wheatleyvoting for the amendment. Bob Olsen, coordinator of the center, said a better name for the center wouldbe Human Sexuality Center. "To hell with 'awareness.' Excuse my French," Olsen said. "Who cares how many adjectives you throw in. It's a center to talk about human sexuality." Board members LisbethGordon and Elizabeth Lovett then proposed another name for the center. "You need to provide as muchinformation in the title and be less threatening," Gordon said. "Call it the Sexual Awareness ResourceCenter." Lovett then moved to amend the main motion to call the center the Sexual AwarenessResource Center. "It's just these nine people to decide the office title?" Bradford said. "Resource sounds like window dressing to me. If that is what it takes to get on with life, fine. "There's a power struggle here and I don't want my office the puppet of a power struggle," Bradford told the board. Board membersdisagreed. "I don't see how there can be a power struggle," Wheatley said. "There are nine differentpeople on the board." Chris Feiring, coordinator of the Men's Resource Center, said the board shoulddiscuss the change with student input. "If this motion fails I would support having another boardmeeting to discuss," Feiring said. Chandler moved to table the matter until the second Wednesday inJanuary. The board approved the motion to table the issue. Monday Bradford said she would continue the process of the name change.

The board approved five recommendations at its Nov. 11 meeting, which will bepassed on to the state legislature's special supplementary budget session agenda in January, ASPresident Dan Wood said. "(This action) does have an impact," Wood said. "It tells legislators whatstudents want. All issues are addressed, but not all to our satisfaction." The Legislative andCommunity Affairs Council, an advisory body to the AS, began researching university needs in Octoberand came up with nine position statements. The only item proposed for the legislative agenda at theAS meeting that wasn't accepted was a $250,000 request to begin construction of a new campusdaycare center. Board members said the legislature is already committed and the request would onlybother the legislators. Approved by the board were: a proposal allowing disabled students to park free on campus; a request to increase the per-student budget allocation for Western to a level comparable toother state-supported universities and a proposed increase of minority students through recruitmentand retention programs. Also sought from the state were: an increase in the legislature-imposedstudent enrollment lid and a change in the state definition of an "independent student" to the federaldefinition, thereby relaxing the current standards of financial aid eligibility. Wood said the AS will lobbyduring the special session. "We're working on another Descend Olympia," he said, adding, last year'spilgrimage to the state capitol was a success. "We're not likely to get money out of them." Woodsaid. About 50 students wearing Western sweatshirts distributed information packets to legislators, he said. "It looked like hundreds of us were there," Wood said. "A mass of Western students swarmingon the capitol." Despite the planned lobbying efforts, Wood was not optimistic about the chances ofsqueezing the desired funds from the legislature. Trustees delay decision on guns for University PoliceA decision to arm University Police won't be brought to the Board of Trustees until after January.Because of the Nov. 4 plane crash, killing President G. Robert Ross and two vice presidents, theTrustees have postponed the decision to arm the officers, said Lt. Chuck Page. The Trustees coulddecide the matter at the next meeting, Page said. The meeting would probably be toward the end ofJanuary or beginning of February. Associated Students President Dan Wood said at Wednesday's AS Board meeting the decision may be made later if students are called to vote on the issue in a s p ec i al referendum. The students' vote would be submitted to the trustees to assist in their decision-making. University Police presented a nine-page report to the trustees at a Sept. 3 meeting requesting the police be armed with guns. Western's Public Safety Assistants, known as greencoats, are notincluded in the proposal. The campus force made a similar request in October 1980. The Board ofTrustees denied the request. Trustees consider AIDS policy By ALANA WARNER staff reporterStudents or teachers with AIDS won't be kept from Western's campus according to a policy adoptedby the Board of Trustees Thursday. Two related policies concerning AIDS and other communicablediseases were presented to Western's acting president Al Froderberg at the meeting at EverettCommunity College. After consulting health associations, the Safety Committee, which prepared theAIDS policy, found that because the AIDS virus cannot be contracted from casual contact, victimssuffering from the disease should not be excluded from campus employment and activities. The policy states that victims infected with the deadly virus "do not represent a threat to the public health of thecampus community." The Safety Committee's policy on communicable diseases proposes thatWestern provide "accurate and objective educational information" on communicable diseases, aswell as clinical services and referrals. If Western's president approves these policies at anundesignated future date, the responsibility of implementing the policies will be assigned toWestern's vice presidents. In other trustee business, a report on a proposed one dollar contribution to the Student Loan Fund as part of students' total registration fee was also read to the board. Afterreviewing the current status of the Student Loan Fund, Vice President/Dean of Student Affairs SaundraTaylor and Associated Students President Dan Wood discovered that the fund is meeting its needsand does not require increased financing. The proposition was dismissed. Also on the agenda was a $39,000 land acquisition, which the board passed. The property, l o c a t e d at 25th and Bill McDonald Parkway, will be financed by funds appropriated for real estate purchase. The board approved theproposition that both the men's and women's tennis clubs be given varsity status on a two-year trialbasis.

The task seemed simpleenough. Sex Information Center assistant coordinator Tanya Bradford wanted AS approval to change thename from the Sex Information Center to the Sexual Awareness Center. But instead she got anunexpected hour of bantering over sexual semantics with the board, leaving her ready to pull her hairout. The board was concerned the name might be "too threatening," or misleading in some other way. Iteven went as far as to move to change the name to the Human Sexuality Information Center. As if thiswasn't enough attention given to this issue of questionable importance, the board made no decision andinstead put off the decision until January. Understandably, Bradford was not happy with the surprisepower struggle. "If you don't want a change, say so, but we aren't going to play games all year," she said. Here. Here. The board's concerns are well founded, but it is abusing its authority if it considers itselfmore qualified to decide the most accurate name of the center. The proposed name was good enough forthe Human Resources Advisory Council and the Activities Council, which already OK'd it, and nobody ismore qualified to decide the best name for the Sex Information Center than the employees of the SexInformation Center. The name change should be a minor issue receiving no more than a passingrecognition before moving on to more important matters. The board has made a mistake in insisting onmaking a major issue of it, when it should have trusted the judgment of the center and approved itsrequest, saving both sides a lot of frustration. Reagan, Don't pull out of agreement now Aweek beforePresident Ronald Reagan's summit meeting with Soviet General Secretary Mikhail S. Gorbachev, Reagan has accused the Soviets of violating the 1972 Antibal-listic Missile Treaty â€” an accusation the Sovietsdeny. The president made the accusation, involving the moving of two old, inconsequential radars, beforeaccepting a Soviet invitation to inspect the sites in question and against the wishes of the StateDepartment. Reagan's insistence on prematurely making the accusation about something so trivial maymean he plans to use it as an excuse to not sign the treaty. The treaty, set to be signed next week inWashington, D.C., would eliminate medium- and shorter-range missiles. "...Having come (out) with it, wehave given additional ammunition to the critics who make the charge that we should not sign and ratifythe treaty," an unnamed administration official was quoted as saying in Vie New York Times. Using the accusation as an excuse would not be a supris-ing move for this president, who opposed SALT I and IIand violated SALT II with the deployment of cruise missiles on B- 52 bombers one year ago. Buthopefully it will be a move Reagan will not make. Reagan has yet to prove to the world he's sincere in hiscall for peace. Signing the peace treaty will be a step in that direction. w^mmm^um Editorials reflect themajority opinion of The Front editorial board.

Merry Christmas. It's time again for merry souls to revert to the joyous traditional values of yesterdecade. And what better place than the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade to bring good oPAmerican values to our homes, with the help of Isotoner gloves, McDonalds and Coc-a-CoIa. Becauseyou, you're the one. Ah, remember those important values we learned as children. I'm glad I knowwhat's important in life. The Oakridge Boys reminded me of what's important as they glided down acrowded New York street during the parade. "Oh baby, I want to love, squeeze you," the group sang,while the outline of a red heart pulsated on the television screen. "Me and you baby are going to makesweet love, baby, in my peekup truck." Kind of makes you all warm and gooshy inside, just likegrandma's fresh-baked cookies. Yummm. A tear of Yuletide joy came to my eye as I saw a 65-footBetty Boop balloon bob between build- DAVE CUILLIER staff reporter mss. Parade commentatorWillard Scott couldn't have worded it better when he said, "She measures 34-24-36, but that's in feet!Va-va-va boom! That's my kind of woman!" Gee, Willard, you crack me up. I was touched later in the pa rade when the Rags-to-Riches kids sung of how much fun it is to be in school. "I like math andscience," sang one of the male characters. "I like writing, and home ec! Hee, hee, hee!" sang one of the female characters while holding a pie. Just like Mary Sue from high school, I thought. Ah, the good oPdays. Barbie and the Rockers, lovely Pia Zadora and other well-known pinnacles of purity alsoblessed our televisions. A high point of the parade for me was when Captain America fried DoctorDoom with 10,000 volts of electricity. It takes grand events like the Macy's Parade to keep our greatAmer'c'n values strong. Sex. Riches. Power. Glitter. Give it all to me. Forget reading, forget liberal arts,just give me a Porsche 924, a hot looking babe for a wife and a job that hands me a six-digit salary.Hey, babes, when I'm famous you'll see me in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, between theCoke and McDonald's commercials. I'll be the one riding the Spuds McKenzie float (made from twomillion Bud Light bottle caps), straddled by two sultry pieces of womanhood while lip-syncing DireStrait's "Money for Nothing." Thanks to television media fluff, me and millions of other dudes willcontinue to hold onto those values dear to our hearts. Heck yeah. We have a responsibility Civil rightsfight mustn't end The 1960s were an awakening to a new social consciousness. Black rights, women's rights, homosexual rights were all discovered. It wasn't that the problems didn't exist before that time, but it was at this time humankind became aware of the injustices. Waking up to a clearlyintolerable reality caused a whole generation to revolt, to demand true justice and true freedom. Sothe hippies said "Hell no, we won't go" to a lot of things: the Vietnam War, segregation, enslaving ofwomen and treating people as less than human. Society breathed a sigh of relief and everything is OK ... right? Wrong! Everything is not OK. People are dying in the streets, sleeping in cardboard boxes,SHARI WALTON staff reporter freezing to death. One out of every three women will be sexuallyassaulted in her lifetime. People with different sexual preferences are "fag bashed" by self-righteousidiots believing they are doing society a favor. These things don't happen monthly, or even daily. Theyhappen by the hour and by the minute. Still some are saying nothing is wrong, all the battles are won; people of color, women and sexual minorities have achieved equality with the rest of us. The reality of injustice still exists, but it has been discredited by our ignorance and apathetic attitude. I knowyou've heard it before. I have too. "Why is this generation so apathetic? They just don't care, theseyoung people today." Sadly, it's true. We try not to think about social injustices. It's easier to climb intoour car, travel to our heated apartments, cook dinner, study and climb into our warm bed. Whathappened? Maybe it just got so bad we all decided to give up, or maybe we decided it wasn't worth it.We must not allow ourselves to be so ignorant as to believe a certain amount of injustice is inevitable,or even desirable. We are the future. It is time we own up to that responsibility. ---------- Western Front - 1987 December 4 - Page 7 ---------- FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4,1987 WESTERN FRONT 7 Letters The Front welcomes letters about all pointsof yiew. Address correspbriT dence to the opinion editor. College Hall 09. Letters must be typed ,double-spaced and limited to no more than 300 words. The Front will not accept hand-written letters forpublication. Letters must includf the: Reilly hecklers shoot own foot The Front, As a proponent of thepeace movement in North America and as an advocate of human rights action by North Americans inCentral America, I am embarrassed by the reactionaries within the movement. On Thursday evening,one Col. Peter Reilly from the State Department's Office of Public Diplomacy gave a 45-minute, pro-Contra pep rally. To be sure, Colonel Reilly is a (moderately effective) professional propagandist who is being paid by the Reagan administration to promote its peculiar brand of democracy in CentralAmerica. His particular choice of quotes and statistics is subject to interpretation by each individualcapable of critical thought. Indeed, we are each entitled to our own opinions. But what irked me morethan any official rhetoric was the outright inconsiderate reactionism that took place during the talk bymembers of the audience. To rebut Reilly's interpretation of the facts by reactionaries with inter-ruptiveoutbursts does little more than erode the credibility of the peace movement. There is always acontingent of people who have not quite made, up their minds on an issue one way or the other, andundoubtedly Reilly and his cohorts are pleased to see the peace movement sending recruits to theright. Therefore, I think if the people in the peace movement would only get wise to the reality of publicrelations, instead of scaring people away with reactionism, their efforts would surely wax moreeffective. Graham Shuley Thank you to relatives, others The Front, We wish to express appreciationfor all the support and friendship we have received from our f r i e n d s , r e l a t i v e s andacquaintances and so many of T/s passengers and fellow pilots.

Dwrell and Gloria Ilardan Quit kicking the damn doors open TheFront, Several weeks ago (Nov. 11) you ran a letter by Jeffery C.

I was so moved by your letter I have acquired,through a very kind and sympathetic staff member, some information about these doors. In a nutshell,the hydraulic opener and installation of the whole apparatus costs $3,000 to $4,000 a piece. Thehydraulic opener contains gears that wear with usage â€” this is what is most expensive to repair. Ofcourse, all repair costs eventually circle around to the students. Also, the opening mechanism (thebox equipped with the red button) gets thrashed around due to items other than fingers pushing it â€”items such as notebooks, pencils and feet. These doors serve a useful and noble purpose, and for that, I like them. But as for you people who are just too damn lazy and can't even open the door by yourself... Bnice Saijeant SFHL force feeds morality The Front, To start with the record straight, I am employedby the Women's Center, I am pro-choice and I have read the letters in defense of Student's for HumanLife with anger and frustration. I recently staffed an information table that provided literature concerning the "gag rules" the Reagan administration is tying to amend to Title X. I was unfortunately located nextto the Students for Human Life booth. In my three hours there, both women staffing that booth tried toengage me in debate. I told both women I was there to provide information and not to debate with them.They ignored my request and proceeded to harass me and to question my morality and my religiousbeliefs. One of the women told me she was a psychology major (in the course of telling me howabortion wreaks mental havoc on the women who have them). I did not discuss with her the mentaldistress of having or being an unwanted child. But I wondered how many guilt trips this morally pure woman would lay on her patients in the course of her career. The president of this organization said in her letter of Nov. 20 that contraceptives are "too diverse a subject" for them to handle correctly, yet sheinserts that they want to educate the campus on the enormous and diverse issues of abortion, suicide,infaticide and euthanasia. From my many encounters with SFHL, I believe what they actually want to dois impose their morality on anyone who will listen. She went on to say "the organization takes nostand on abstinence, pre-marital or marital sex," but the individuals that make up the organization seewith one and the same eye. Ms. Hetherington is playing with semantics. An organization is made up ofindividuals with like ideas. I am for human life - I don't know many who aren't, with the exception of theReagan administration â€” I am simply for the best human life possible. I support what I believe in andonly expound on my views when asked (or infuriated enough to defend them). I would encourage anystudents interested in current birth control information (which takes up surprisingly little space), tovisit the Sex Information Center or the Women's Center. We are happy to help and have many resources available. And we only give our opinions if you want them. Laura Boyhton-Myers Front proves itsignorance again The Front, Thank you for providing the perfect ending to Power and Sex week. I am alltoo familiar with the Front to think that its staff members would be bright enough to realize what theywere actually doing, so I'll spell it out for you. Your editorial on the men's rugby issue epitomized theprimary reason we even have to have power and sex awareness week on a university campus:rampant IGNORANCE. The Front staff members, and much of this campus community (with theexception of an occ a s i o n a l e n l i g h t e n e d administrator), has failed to identify the entiremen's rugby team as the power and sex issue it truly is. The men on the rugby team have no concept ofwhat it might be like to encounter large male intruders in their home. They are large males. But femaleshave an entirely different perspective; we know what it is to be confronted by someone 6-foot, 190pounds when we stand maybe 5 feet 6 inches and weigh significantly less. Intimidating. The womanfrom the residence halls who was pushed down and generally abused by identified members of themen's rugby team didn't press charges. While I don't agree with her decision, I can empathize with herfear. She may have succeeded in identifying and prosecuting one or two perpetrators of violence, butthat leaves at least 25 who will know her name as well as her place of residence, 25 who have alreadyproven that they are not afraid to unlawfully enter and destroy another person's home. The men's rugby team has a history of malicious acts of destruction and abuse of alcohol. If only three of the menidentified in the residence halls rampage were rugby team members, then three is enough to convict the entire team. They knew they were on proverbial thin ice. Who wants this campus to be represented by a bunch of thugs? Obviously, the Front doesn't mind. But then, its ignorance is already well established. No Respect Intended Pamela S. Helberg Wars are useful, you homo commie The Front, Mr.Bokamper and Porter, Porter, I didn't miss your points. It's just that in actual fact they are not points atall, but only hopeful stabs in the dark generated by a childlike rebellion from acceptance of the harshrealities of the world. You're so convinced you can change the world, but don't have the perseverance todeal with even a single person. It's pathetic, really, and I feel a great compassion that your hopesmust inevitably come to naught. Apparently you've found yourself unable to deliver the proofs that Irequested of the efficacy of your dreams for world peace. I have no such problem justifying my ownstance: The freedom you exercise when you pick up your pen was born in war. The removal of the yokeof the Samuri from the Japanese neck came from war. The termination of the Nazi death camps camefrom war. Despite your contention that war has never solved anything, history is rife with incidents thatprove it has, and repeatedly. We aren't any smarter or wiser than all those good men throughout thecenturies. Unhappily, it is not as simple as you seem to believe to live in arcadian peace. If it were, thelast war would have been so far distant in the past we wouldn't even have a word for it, so heartfelt andeternal is mankind's wish for security and tranquility. Now, Porter, I don't advocate war for frivolousreasons. I do say that defending yourself is noble and righteous and that to do less is ignoble andshameful. It is weak. Of course, try to be reasonable, go the extra mile, but have the intelligence torealize it isn't always going to work. We are substantially in agreement, you and I, but you have forgotten a few critical factors that leave your equation fatally unbalanced. Our hope for survival demands we beready to deal with the mean-spirited tyrants who are all too often inflicted upon mankind. Bokamper, your insistance upon the right to submit hazy, incoherent letters for publication places the reponsibility forany misinterpretation of them squarely upon your own narrow shoulders. Further, your motivation forinserting your weird ravings about depraved sex into a discourse about the merits of self defense andcivility eludes me. It's difficult to determine whether your obsession with perversion stems from yourown suppressed homosexual tendencies or some crypto-neo-fascist lunacy. Or both. And if pointingout the glories of an enemy nation vis-a-vis your own country isn't being an apologist, the compilers ofdictionaries are going to have to revise their definition of the word. If you look like a duck and quacklike a duck, then you are a Gorbachev groupie. Dennis K. Ogden One last try to reform Kaplan TheFront, In his latest letter (Nov. 17), Edward Kaplan has another go at proving his "point" â€” which we"persist in missing" â€” that fascism and socialism are alike. We are now somewhat far afield from hisoriginal contention; his current argument seems to be that Mussolini and Hitler were actuallysocialists at heart. Mr. Kaplan says we "concede Mussolini was a socialist until just before he becameleader of the Fascist Party, but insist he and the party's doctrine are antisocialist" (our emphasis);indeed we do. According to Mussolini, "(the Fascist) conception of life makes Fascism the completeopposite of that doctrine, the base of so-called scientific and Marxian Socialism, the materialistconception of history... And above all Fascism denies that class-war can be the preponderant force in the transformation of society. These two fundamental concepts of Socialism being thus refuted,nothing is left of it... Fascism repudiates the conception of ' e c o n o m i c ' happiness ..."(International Conciliation. Jan., 1935, no. 306. Reprinted in Knoles and Snyder, 1968). The mind reels.Mr. Kaplan next uses a quote of a quote of a translation of Hitler as evidence to bolster his claims.Note, however, that Hitler's "approval" of "former communists" (our emphasis) excludes "the petitbourgeois (sic) Social Democrat and the trade-union boss;" in other words, socialists. Need we alsomention the seemingly endless ravings against Bolsheviks, marxists, communists, etc., one encounters in Hitler's writings and speeches? Mr. Kaplan's defamation of "socialism" is an obvious appeal topopular prejudice. His interchangeable use of terms (e.g., Bolshevist, corporatist, socialist, leftist)renders them definitively useless, clouding issues and making meaningful discussion nearly impossible. Of course socialism resembles fascism in trivial ways, just as capitalist democracy resemblesfascism in trivial ways. For Mr. Kaplan's thesis to have any force, he would have to show thatsocialism is significantly more like fascism than other competing political philosophies, and that thesimilarities between the two are more significant than the differences. Perhaps Mr. Kaplan shouldabandon hypotheses that rely substantially on trivia and analogy. Timothy R. Machin StephenSondericker No local music? Sure there is The Front, Who the heck is this Wayne Ellis guy to decide"there really (isn't) much music" in Belling-ham? Forgive my indignation, but as a local musician, I knowbetter. In bringing national acts to Belling-ham, I can only be thankful that someone has taken theinitiative to fill a void in the currently less-than- thriving local music scene, but to infer that there is a lackof acceptable local talent is an easy way for a promoter to take himself off the hook; Even thoughBuck's is the nicest beer barn in the town, they have not provided an outlet for local bands to play live on a regular basis and develop their performance skills. Thus, those of us who can't stomach theSeattle cover bands they import have headed two doors down to the Up Up where local music can beheard on a Friday or Saturday night for a minimal cover charge.

After opening the season at home last Saturday with a 66-61 win over California StateUniversity at Chico, Western lost 75- 63 in Burnaby, B.C. to Simon Fraser University on Wednesday in its first NAIA District I game. We're going to make mistakes, but we'll be a team to be reckoned with. -Lynda Goodrich Western fell behind early against a fast-breaking Simon Fraser team, which jumpedout to a 18-4 lead. The Clansmen built their lead as high as 15 points before Western began to battle itsway back into the contest. Trailing 40-29 at the half, the Vikings outscored Simon Fraser 20-10 toclose within one point, 50-49. Freshman center Cim Hanson came off the bench to spark her teammates with six of her nine points during the run. But Western never got any closer. The Clansmen's SaraHaave hit a three-point shot for a 53-49 lead, and Simon Fraser rebuilt its lead, putting the game out ofreach. Forward Lynn Munday led Western with 16 points. Hanson had a team-high 10 rebounds, andforward Anna Rabel chipped in eight points and eight rebounds. "It's iusi a matter of our youth andinexperience," Western Coach Lynda Goodrich said. "I was more pleased with what I saw coming outout of the Simon Fraser game than what I saw in the Chico State game. It takes time to work togetherand make good decisions." This year's lineup consists of three sophomores and two juniors. Only twoplayers are back from last year's starting lineup. In last Saturday's Chico State victory, Western wasable to use the fast break to its advantage over the slower Wildcats. Western never relinquished its leadafter going on top 25-24 with six minutes left in the first half.

RAY TOWNSEND staff reporter The women's cross country team placed fifth at the NAIAnational championships -- the best finish ever for a Western cross country team. The Western women accomplished this by placing four out of its five women in the top 52. The big surprise of the meetwas the running of Sarah Williams, who led the women by finishing 12th. This was Williams' bestfinish of the season and earned her Ail-American honors. Genevie Pfueller also earned Ail-Americanhonors by placing 19th, the third time Pfueller has been named an All-American. "It's an amazing feat,"Western Coach Kelvin Halsell said. "It's a great accomplishment for Western." The lone runner for the Viking men did not do as well. It's a great accomplishment for Western. -head coach Kelven Halsell Neal Sherry fell in the first quarter-mile of his race. When he tried to get up, he was kicked in the headand back, so he stayed down until the herd of runners passed.

Sailing club teams finish first, fourth By KATHY TUCKER staff reporter Competing against 14 schools in gusty winds and heavy downpour, Western's sailing club finished first in the regatta it hosted Nov. 1 and Nov. 2 at Lakewood.Each school had number 1 and 2 teams. Western's number 1 team came in first place, followed bySeattle University, second; the University of Oregon, third; and Western's number 2 team fourth. ErikHauge, sailing club representative, said it was the largest Northwest turnout in about 10 years. Hesaid everyone sailed really well in "trying conditions." Jeff Davis, Western sailing club coach, said "It was a wide variety of (weather) conditions that called on everybody's total experience." "The whole team really looked very good," he said. 'A lot of our new people that haven't been racing in that large (of a)fleet did very well." 'T he whole team really looked very good. ' -Jeff Davis He said Western's sailing club works on total team performance, rather than stressing the better individual sailors. The results of this are beginning to show, he said. Western's number 1 team members sailing Saturday were Varsity Asailor Tom Krabben-host with crew Shelly Drysdale and Varsity B sailor Dave Lutz with crew LaurieO'Donnell. Number 1 team members who sailed Sunday were Varsity A sailor Diane Whitefield with crew Diane Pixley and Varsity B sailor Erik Hauge with crew Karee Loghry. Sailors also raced solo on laser sail boats, but the results of that have not yet been calculated. Western team members sailing on the lasers were Dave Yurina, Erik Hauge, Brennan Linsley, Dave Lutz and Tom Krabbenhost. The weekend event was titled the Oprah Memorial Regatta ~ after a team member's dead pet fish. Hauge said "It was a hell of a party." ---------- Western Front - 1987 December 4 - Page 12 ---------- 12 WESTERN FRONT FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4,1987 Win streak on the line for hot hoopsters By BUTCH KAMENA staff reporter Off to its best start in four years, the Western's men's basketball team willplay a pair of NAIA District 1 games at Sam Carver Gym this weekend.

After tonight's Victoria contest, Western travels to Seattle on Saturday to play Seattle PacificUniversity in a District I encounter. Victoria has won five of the last seven Canadian NationalChampionships. Goodrich described Victoria as a "well-balanced team that can run the ball." It's thebiggest campus comeback since "Revenge Of The Nerds." Western's football team, nearly cut lastspring in the wake of nine straight losing seasons, dwindling student interest and increasing costs,has returned just months later with a winning season and strong administrative support. "I have afeeling we've finally convinced some people we're for real," he said. The Associated Students Board ofDirectors had recom-mended the program be eliminated last year because of the large sum of moneyHansen said he needed to turn the team around. The board members agreed with Hansen that thefootball team needed increased funding to provide better training and equipment. They didn't supportincreasing student activity fees an estimated $30 per student. Hansen said the board hadmisunderstood him and that he was willing to negotiate to save the program. After students voted tokeep the team last spring at a special referendum and after Hansen had pared down his original figures,the board reversed its recommendation. The program received an additional $6,000 (approximately)per year for equipment, and through reorganization of existing funds, was able to afford a full-timeassistant coach, Athletic Director Lynda Goodrich said. Hansen gave three reasons for the program'simprovement. "We had more talented players this year, we had an older, more experienced coachingstaff and we had a very supportive athletic director," he said. The seniors largely were responsible forthis season's winning team, Hansen said. Their leadership and positive attitude helped the team staytogether. "Lewis, Nelson, even guys who didn't play too much, were just great." Senior linebackerWayne Lewis set a school record with 431 tackles in his career. He led the defense for a fourth straightseason with a personal-best 155 stops and a CFL-leading 11 takeaways. Lewis, sophomore safetyKelly Susee and junior punter Peter LaBarge were named first team All-CFL. Even though we'll be losing a lot of great players, with hard work we'll have a good team next year, too, Hansen said. "I'm sure thatthe threat of dropping the team brought the players closer together," Goodrich said.

The class is designed to introduce students to basic issuescentral to homosexuality. The relationship of a subculture to a culture is the main focus of theclass, said Scott Lennon, a Fairhaven student who leads the class. Lennon said the gay-lesbiansubculture is being used as a model because it is one of the newest and most controversial subcultures. "(The course) is an academic examination of the forces that have shaped the gay-lesbian subculturein the past 50 years," Lennon said. The institutions and leading figures who have risen from thesubculture also will be discussed, Lennon said. He plans to use the disciplines of sociology,psychology, anthropology and history to explore gay-lesbian issues and subculture. Issues to becovered in the course include: sex and sexuality, AIDS and its effect on American society, the history of the contemporary homosexual rights movement, heterosexual privilege, homophobia, minority politics and social structures in our society. "I see this ideally as the first course that would ultimately make up a gay studies department," Lennon said. Lennon said classes on sexual minorities are rare. The classreceived press coverage last spring because it is so uncommon. The Advocate, a national magazine that highlights sexual minorities' issues, interviewed Lennon about the seminar, as did Bellingham radiostation KGMI. This is the second quarter the class has been taught. Lennon said he has received nonegative or adverse reactions to the seminar, only positive and supportive feedback. Titled Fairhaven210B: Cultural Studies, the class is four credits and meets 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesdays andThursdays. Home ec. design group will tour Sweden, Finland A spring break design-oriented tour ofHelsinki and Stockholm is being planned by Western's home economics department. The tour,scheduled for March 20 to 27, may be taken for two credits and is offered to all Western students. PatMitchell, chairman of the home economics department, will lead students through an architectural tour ofHelsinki, the capital of Finland and a walking tour of Stockholm, Sweden. "I was very impressed withdesign in Finland," Mitchell said. She said she enjoyed design in Helsinki and Stockholm and wantedto share it with students. Students will have a chance to visit a glass factory, textile printing factory, afurrier and a garment manufacturer. The tours of the factories will give students a chance to seeevery aspect of a product's creation, Mitchell said. Students also may visit museums in both citiesand the Finnish Design Center in Helsinki. Students will spend two nights traveling between Helsinki and Stockholm aboard a cruiseliner. Cost of the tour is $1,195. It includes round-trip air fare, double-occupancy hotel accommodations, two nights aboard a cruiseliner, four dinners and all breakfasts,transportation and sightseeing fees. An initial payment of $150 is due Jan. 15. Space is limited to 15students. Applications may be picked up at the Home Economics Office in Old Main. Threeorientation lectures will be presented winter quarter. For more information contact Pat Mitchell at676-3372 or 676-3370. WSL board votes against restructuring By KRIS LUNDEEN staff reporter TheWashington Student Lobby State Board voted unanimously against Western's plan to restructure theWSL at a meeting Nov. 22 at the University of Washington. "The board decided it would be ill advised to (restructure) this close to the session," Andy McLean, Western WSL chairman, said. AssociatedStudent President Dan Wood stated, in an announc-w ement, that since Western's plan has noimplementation schedule, it would not be feasible to adopt it now. The board followed Wood'ssuggestion to instead opt for WSL Executive Director Jim Sullivan's plan. Sullivan's plan deals withsignificant budgetary decisions affecting the operating structure of WSL. The executive director'ssalary was reduced from $24,000 to $8,400. Salaries and benefits, including an uncut intern salary,total $11,000. Approximately $6,300 will be available to local chapters. Each chapter will now haveaccess to approximately $1,260. They originally had access to only $500. The board will meet again inabout six months to review Sullivan's plan and discuss proposals for restructuring WSL. "This is apositive step toward having a stronger student lobby. Our strength comes from numbers and emphasis on the local organization," Wood said. The WSL legislative agenda, to be presented to the statelegislature for the session beginning in January, was decided at the meeting. * Correction KathleenShaw, who wrote a directory for children and families in Bellingham, is a Whatcom Community Collegegraduate, not a Western graduate as printed in a Nov. 20 Front article.

The subcommittee, which consists of Trustees Martha Choe, chair, Larry Taylorand Gordon Sandison, will formulate a process for the selection and determine the composition of thesearch committee. The committee tentatively will include Choe as chair, Taylor, Trustee Craig Cole, four faculty members, Associated Students President Dan Wood, one additional student and at least four administrators. Remaining committee members should be appointed by the end of January, whenthey will begin considering possible candidates for the position currently filled by acting President AlFroderberg. Some faculty members were concerned that the committee be large and varied enough torepresent all of the university's interests. Choe said her preference was for the group to remain smalland she didn't want the committee's size to be an issue. "I will seek to balance the representation ofconstituencies, with a workable group," Choe said. Rosalie King, chair of the home economicsdepartment, agreed with Choe, but added she thought at least one faculty member should be awoman. She also said she would like the professional departments, such as technology, to haveinput. "My concern is that across the campus there is such a diversity of faculty. I want to be sure theyare all represented," she said. Choe said the campus community will be kept apprised of thecommittee's findings through upcoming forums and that the search for potential candidates could becompleted by June, Choe said. "I think this (date) is reasonable. We are going to take the amount oftime we need in order to do the best job possible." Rugby fate unfairly decided, Biggs says Continuedfrom RUGBY, p.1 fate, it should rest with the Club Sport Council. "We went through ail that hassle to go through the Club Sport Council and they made their decision, and they (Smith and Sather) just ignoredthat and booted us anyway," Biggs complained. Part of the suspension states the team may notclaim affiliation with Western, and Sather said if they continue calling themselves Western men's rugbyclub they will be violating the suspension. pancake breakfast in the Viking requested| l gt;as gt;e!d onabiUty to |SeattIef:f^ : | ! | e | i | f | | l | |^ PACE'S NEW USED In Old Town Check Out DiscountSavings at Pace's 413 W.

"That's where Hickey's involved," bassist LTD said, in reference to the pint-sized deitythe band members claim is their unifying factor. "Hickey the Wonder Bug. He's the greatest god of all,"vocalist Beijing Waxneedle stated. "Better than Christ, Buddha... " "But then again, our whole idea is tokill him," guitarist Boom Boom interjected. "He's kind of a paradoxical parasite. It's a confusing concept,but when you get down to it, he's like, this little bug, and you both worship him yet destroy him."Whatever. The guys in PCP (Beijing, Boom Boom, LTD and drummer Doug "Jung" Disney) don't try tomake a lot of sense, most of the time. Making a lot of noise is more their gig, and it's something theypromise to do when they play tonight at the Up and Up Tavern. The band was scheduled to open for San Francisco's Lethal Gospel, but the headline act backed out and at presstime PCP still was searchingfor an opening act for tonight. LTD, Boom Boom and Disney all played in the band Karate Church last year, and Waxneedle joined the trio last summer when Karate Church split up. "You can't classify ourmusic," LTD said, but the other members described it as loud, silly and occasionally socially relevantâ€” but never offensive. "There's nothing offensive about ... Golden Showers," Waxneedle exclaimed,referring to the Mentors tune that is one of PCP's standbys. One of the band's socially relevant tunes,"Eat, Oral, Eat," probably will appear on the second "Bellingham Complication" tape, due out earlynext year. Written last spring when Oral Roberts was fasting in an attempt to raise $8 million, the songis an eloquent plea for the televangelist to resume consumption of solids. "We were worried about hishealth," Boom Boom said. The band also is recording a full-length tape, due out in January, which willinclude its five-song thropera (thrash/ opera), "Strap On ~ The Story of a Young Man in Turmoil." Thethropera includes the band's unofficial anthem, "The Ballad of Gruff Otis," about a school truancyofficer who likes young boys. Indicative of the overtly perverted, sexual lyrics present in many PCP t u n e s , the amphetamine-paced "Gruff Otis" includes the verse, "He's six-foot-four and bald on top/ Withhair upon his back./ He smiles at you and leers a bit/ While thinking of your crack./ Gruff Otis, GruffOtis, there's no escaping him./ Gruff Otis, Gruff Otis, the future looks quite grim!" The boys insist they'rejust having fun, but lyrics like these, an abundance of cacophonous music and some lewd stage antics("we're not playing with dildos anymore," Beijing pointed out) have gotten the band kicked out of Buck'sand limited its appearances this fall to The Up and Up. The band did play on Camano Island and atBellingham's Eagles Hall this summer, though, during its "Safe Sodomy '87" tour. Waxneedle described "tolerance" as the basis of PCP's relationship with The Up and Up. Boom Boom said he believes theproprietors may like the band partly because of its fans, whom he described as "our drunk friends. It'ssort of a parasitic relationship. They sell lots of beer, and we get to play there."

Snow leaves a quilt of downy-soft powderon the streets of Lidsville. Meanwhile, inside the Borden home, strings of lights hanging on the tree andcriss-crossing the room blink as if to say.... ...."Eat at Joe's." After a miserable Thanksgiving Dayfeast of Tortelli's Turkey Loaf - a brick-shaped bundle of mystery meat gleaming in gelatinous holidayooze ~ Eddie, the mischievous other half of the Borden twins, thought diner chow sounded prettygood. His amiable brother Robert already had informed Eddie that turkey loaf would again be served at Christmas dinner because "mom said so." A distraught Eddie reached out and tweaked Robert'snose, whereby Robert fled down the stairs screaming, "Eddie broke my nose, Eddie broke my nose!"Punishment rendered, their parents banished Eddie to an evening of humility and solitaryconfinement in his room. Later, Robert helped his mother Liz pin up gaudy Christmas decorationsdownstairs on the living room walls. He always helps his mother. He's clean. Friendly. Courteous. Kind.Meanwhile Dad, pipe hanging from his mouth, teasingly flashed his wife with his new mistletoe bucklebelt. Liz' cheeks reddened to an amber glow and pulsated, as if to say... ...um..."Eat at Joe's." Sheresponded to Dad with a suggestive wink, and recommended Robert go upstairs, make holiday peacewith his brother, and write their letters to Santa Claus. "Gotta write 'em early," she said. "Otherwise,Zippy the postal boy can't get 'em to the North Pole in time for Christmas." "Whadya' want forChristmas, son?" asked Dad between hacking coughs from the screen of pipe smoke that now pervaded him. Robert said timidly he might like to have the new book, "Babar the Elephant Gets a Day Job."Grabbing a pen from the plastic pocket protector pad on the breast pocket of his father's shirt, Robertgot right to work on his letter.

' ;; *; Elizabeth (AnnaLisa Houk) issurprised by her motorcycle-riding landlord (Rob Noteboom).' By MAGGIE PRINGLE staff reporter T heBritish comedy, "Taking Steps," features a six-member cast, comprising Western drama studentsunder the direction of Western senior Mary Beth Sternberg. The play opened last night and will continue with performances tonight and Saturday at 7:30 p.m. in the Lab Theater, Performing Arts Center 199.Sternberg admits it's unusual for an undergraduate to direct a full-length play, but she said she plans toattend a California university next year for a master's degree in fine arts in directing. Sternbergdirected "The Line" and "Laundry and Bourbon" at Western last year and acted in Summerstock theater. "Taking Steps," the two-act play by Alan Ayckbourn, takes place in an old three-story Victorian manor.While the scenes are in the living room, upstairs bedroom and the attic, the representation is on thestage level. Sternberg said comedy can be complicated. "Taking Steps" is the first full-length play she has directed, and the gimmicks demand timing. "The set is compact, and it makes it hard for theactors, but it also makes it funny," Sternberg said. "The small theater lets the audience get close to theaction," she added. In the play, Roland (played by Mike Rainey) is in the process of buying the manor.His lawyer (John O'Brien) and landlord (Rob Noteboom) are at the house when Roland discovers his wife, Elizabeth, (AnnaLisa Houk) has left him. Elizabeth's brother and his girlfriend (Matt Whitman and LyssaBrowne) also are at the manor and add to the confusion that leads to mistaken identities. "Directing is not telling people where to stand but developing the charac-ter... their tactics and intentions,"Sternberg said. Through a directional philosophy, her choices reflect an interpretation of the play. Forthis comedy Sternberg said her philosophy is "manipulation leads to isolation." With a background inacting and participating in Western's acting courses and productions she knows what the characters should do. In choosing the cast Sternberg said she also knew who had English accents for theexaggerated characters and the timing for the comedy. Admission to "Taking Steps" is $2 at the door.H Award-winning artstudents show their best at the VU By ALISON MAJOR staff reporter Watch out forthe six-foot-long concrete figure when entering tne Viking Union Gallery. Zena Nottingham's "CementMan" lies low in the center of the floor, where it could easily he backed into it if visitors don't payattention. Not that the sculpture is inconspicuous; it isn't, but the artwork around the gallery may bedistracting enough to make one forget the massive figure. The gallery is showing prize-winning Westernartists' work until Dec. 9. Eight art students last spring received various grants and scholarships fortalent and dedication. To honor these seniors, space has been provided in the VU Gallery for them todisplay some of their best works. Among the honors given were the J. Ruth Kelsey Merit Scholarship, the art department's Annual Art Merit Grant and the Edward B. Thomas Memorial Scholarship. Workson display are pieces selected by the artists, so not all are award winners. The showing does, however,include several award-winning designs or works created with materials bought from monies providedthrough the grant. Nottingham said she didn't intend to spend the entire $100 materials-fee waiverawarded her, but admitted her "Cement Man" required it. "I found I kept on needing buckets of cement,"she said. Her dedication to the piece didn't stop there. Pillows, scrap material, plywood and anythingelse she "didn't mind ruining," also were incorporated into the sculpture. TTie works range frompaintings and furniture to clothing and have titles such as "Man Holding Shark" and "Stern's HouseCollage." Stern's House is Western's painting gallery for art students, artist Catherine "Kitty"Brougham said. The fine-arts major said she wants the ideas expressed in her art to be appealing bythemselves, rather than have people draw on life experiences or outside observations to find meaningin her work. "I want the impact to be in the pieces themselves, not in the associations they have withsomething else. I want to hit you one-on- one," she said. An example is her untitled tracing-paperhanging, which has a large pinkish-blue or red square on it â€” depending on the lighting. As the airmoves the paper, the square's color changes between blue and pink as the light hits the treated oil-pastel block of color differently. Brougham said this kinetic energy movement is what makes the workspecial in it's own right. Senior art student Eric Freeberg won first place in the J. Ruth Kelsy MeritScholarship competition, worth a year's residence, tuition and materials. His still-life oil paintings aredisplayed on the back wall of the gallery. Kay Kammerzell received the scholarship's second prize:a $100 materials-fee waiver. She said she likes to incorporate industrial materials, such as metals andplastics into her design. Kammer-zell's furniture, wall hangings and pendant all feature these materials.She also has designed triangular metal coffee tables and a couch made of paper mache, which will be shown at an upcoming Whatcom Museum art festival. "I'm working more with furniture designsand interior-type objects for creating an environment where my pieces are definitely functionable," shesaid of her current artistic pursuit. Dale Seachord, who won a $50 materials grant, said he used partof the prize to buy army shirts. "(They) are a prime material in some of my newer pieces," he said.Because he has become interested in painting again, Seachord said he also bought oil paint, fixative and turpentine. Seachord's art displayed in the gallery has characteristics of "The Far Side" comicstrip, although he clearly has his own perceptions. Seachord added he likes to use techniques done inthe past, but makes them suit his purpose. For example, Seachord combines old canvas paintings,heavy material and several types of drawing textures (i.e. paint, pastel, charchoal) to make one, largecollage. "The methods to put together are not extremely refined. Often they're very crude, such as very crude gluing and sewing, which I feel cuts into the very crude-cut look of the pieces themselves,"Seachord said. He added this is a technique borrowed from early- 1900s artist Kurt Switter, known forhis abstract collages. Other students honored for outstanding achievements in art were Candy Knott,Jennifer England and Susan Lamb. ---------- Western Front - 1987 December 4 - Page 21 ---------- FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4,1987 Our Grand-Remodeling sale Continues!

SEATTLE ---------- Western Front - 1987 December 4 - Page 22 ---------- 2 2 ACCENT FRIDAY, DECEMBER 4,1987 Moonpins return to old turf for weekend gig at Buck's ByJOHN WYBLE staff reporter It's a homecoming. The former Bellingham band, The Moonpins, returnswith its high energy funk-rock tonight and Saturday at Buck's Tavern. The Moonpins emerged four yearsago, led by bassist Matt McClinton and drummer Jack Wolfin. The band subsequently added guitaristMike Kilpatrick, keyboardist Rick Haykin and lead singer Harley Tat. The Moonpins, which onceconsisted of all Western students, since has moved to the Seattle music scene. When Tat left forAlaska this summer, The Moonpins were left searching for a new singer. "We took out an ad in TheRocket for a new singer, but some of the people were a little weird," McClinton said. "One guy wouldn'tleave the city limits of Seattle." They finally decided on Karl Muller, a Sehome High School graduate whoused to sing for Arms Akimbo, a reggae-ska dance band. "Karl had a strong voice and was highlymotivated. He is also good at throwing lyrics at music," McClinton said. Last spring, The Moonpinsrecorded a demo tape of some of its original songs, which are a danceable mix of funk, rock and reggae. The band's lyrics range from political commentaries to nonsensical themes, such as "Moving toTukwila," a story of a strange, paranoid man trying to escape from urban pressures. "The Rocket calledour tape pleasant and light, which gave us a chuckle," McClinton said. Along with its original music, The Moonpins plays covers by the Talking Heads, Doors, Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Commodores. Theperformance material also includes the song by Muller called "Davy Jones' Locker" about David Bowie.The Moonpins will head into the studio in January to record its first album, which should be out early next summer. The album will include many of the old originals along with some new material. The bandcurrently is planning a dance in the Viking Union Lounge next month, a double bill with the AlmightyDread, Bel-lingham's local reggae band. The performances at Buck's Tavern will cost $4 or $3 with a can of food for the Bellingham Food Bank. The Moonpins are: Rick Haykin, Matt McClinton, Karl Muller,Mike Kilpatrick and Jack Wolfin.

"We want to play the Nash Hall turn-around dance in the spring," Waxneedle said. While theband waits for a wider audience, the members continue writing new songs, about one every twoweeks. "We're purposely writing our songs to get on the PMRC's (Parent's Music Research Council)blacklist," Disney said. The PMRC, headed by Tipper Gore, the wife of presidential candidate Albert,is lobbying to establish a rating system for songs, so parents will know if their children arepurchasing music with "offensive content." "And we think it's great that Albert (Gore) actually smokedpot," Disney added. "We should confess, we've all smoked pot, but we all regret it," Waxneedle said."And don't do crack," Boom Boom admonished. "It kills."

That "we must bring the cup back," is the sentiment expressed by practically everyone in the school. The whole school stands behind the debators iii their determination to bring home £he cup. Miss Rokes, Miss Inga Benson,, and Mr. Mason Hall will defend the affirmative; and Miss Stoughton, Miss Spaight and Mr. Oliver Ingersoll will defend the Negative. The question to be debated is: Resolved, That the Phillipine Islands be given their Independence by 1930.

MISS OLIVE EDENS Normal Loses First Game; Then Wins Second Easily A large crowd was present in the Normal gym Friday night, when the strong Ellensburg basketball team defeated the local Normal "five" 23 to 14. The close guarding and excellent team work of the local men held the visitors from running up a large score during the game. Hughes, our star forward, was off color Friday, as he could not seem to locate the basket; he made shot after shot from every place on the floor, but missed every time by a narrow mai'gin. Both teams played a very clean game, few personal fouls being called during the game. The visitors made the first basket and kept the lead throughout the entire game. The score at the end of the first half was 11 to 10 in their favor. The visiting center, F. Robinson, played a star game, making 15 out of 23 points for them. Line-up: Bellingham.

NORMAL LOSES FIRST: WINS SECOND EASILY (Continued From Page One) the hard fighting of the whole team supplied the fans with plenty of thrills. Not a point was made during the first ten UKI a half, minutes of some of the hardest and fastest playing ever viewed by local fans. . Bellingham scored the first point when Yanderford shot a basket from a difficult position, causing the crowds to go completely wild. The team kept the lead all through the first half, ending it with-two baskets and two free throws, a total of (• points, while Ellensburg had •aptured two baskets. •Yanderford started the second half by making a basket in the first minute of play, after which Ellensburg immediately got a burst of speed and shot in six points, making them 10, also giving them the lead, which they lost when l gt;ellinghant made a basket and tied the score. The s gt;joro remained tied until the last few minutes of the third quarter, when the local "five" forged -ahead.-.and made shot after shot from every position on the floor. The last few seconds of the play was very'interesting, the losing team trying hard to catch up, but with no avail. The Bellingham Normal outplayed their opponents from the start, being faster and lighter, and having the advantage of the larger gym floor. They played all around the heavier players of the Ellensburg Normal. Captain Victor Hughes kept the Ellensburg team on the defense most of the game by his continued shooting. Time after time he would throw for the bas.ket from one side of the floor and beat the opponents to the ball shooting again from the other side. Vic Hughes is of the hardest workers on the team and is having hard luck at present getting baskets. The entire game was considered by basketball fans as being a very clean one, there being only one personal foul made in the first half and less than eight in the whole game. Line-up: Bellingham.

(A Synopsis) —Mary B. Egbert..... The things I think, the things 1 feel Are known to me as very real; They form an inner life apart I'i'om all material forms of art. My brother's thoughts I may not know, Not even those of friend or foe. Until express'd by tongue or pen. I'n comprehensive terms to men. Amotions too may burn within. Unknown to strangers, kith or kin, Till we by word or deed impart The secret treasures of our heart. Herein doth lie our u^e of style For by its use, we reconcile The outer form with inner truth. Style's outward body visible Must be to man infallible Expressive of emotions mine As well as thoughts and felings thine In written words it must appear And not by sounds thai men can hear. If mortal mind is then inIpress'd By what he finds in words express'd The term of clearness is applied On which for meaning he relied. If his emotions are impressed It comes thru Force by Style possess'd. The niiin aesthetic too may feel Response within to Style's appeal, And this impressing tptality : Is Elegance','undoubtedly. This outward body's built of marks Of dots and circles, lines and arcs, They indicate to man some sound Artkulative organs found. These sounds make words that by consent And common usage now present The unrealities obscure With clearness in our literature. Our language then, to man conveys, Emotions, thoughts and thus portrays By Clearness. Force and Elegance Our intellectual advance. The source of words, we would suggest Is men who know and speak the best. Our words must be of good repute Have meanings men dare not dispute. Xo local terms nor technical Should mar our language vehicle, And present usage too mush share A part in our selective care. Xow ni.arks make words, and words we find, Form sentences of ev'ry kind. When groups of sentences unite .To form a paragraph in type, ;And paragraphs make larger Wholes Embracing all within their folds, We have our body visible. Before the whole is well allied Three principles must be applied. The first of these is Unity The oneness of reality; Made visible by human art in which our words are but a part. All thoughts must cluster round about One central point and not without. A second principle is Mass Arresting sight ere it can pass, Applied externally by norm To give o u r outer body form. Our third, Coherence is the last Relating parts and binding fast, By striking out all useless draff. Each sentence, words and paragraph. Tii meanings, well denoted, stand Our source of all from ev'ry land. Our choice of tools, connoted well Emotions keen must fully tell.

There are all sorts of bores, dry bores, chatty bores, scrappy bores, gluan bores, etm., etc. etc. Up here we have all the fifty-seven varieties: The field is too wide. Let's narrow it. Consider the class-room bore; he studies not, neither does he think. He knows more than the instructor himself and asks that dignitary to "stop and think." He interrupts an explanation to prose on about "putting it another way," or "in other words," or "that is to say." "While another person is reciting he shakes his head and waves his hand aloft. When not arguing he reads the Saturday Evening Post. Verily, he is the biggest bore. -. Then there is the "cute" girl bore; the little "cut-up" who laughs and whispers and pinches.and jumps. She is convulsed with laughter at her own witticisms. Her contributions to the discussion are not very illuminating, and her grades are D and C. She is very sensible compared with the third type, the borrowing bore. It would not be so bad if this bore stopped at dimes and fountain pens and note paper. It's when he or she begins to borrow lesson plans and reading reports that we get tired. Moral courage is a nice thing to have around but we hate to trot it out every day in refusing the borrowing bore. We could hold this talk for an hour or two. We just remember that Ave are being the worst of all bores, ourselves—a complaining bore. B. S.N. S. MOVIES. TILLIE. That Avas Mary Anne's best chum's name.Tillie was crazy over the movies. She had seen "The Lost Soul" for 24 consecutive Sunday evenings without missing a single installment. She had a framed picture of Douglass Reed over her bureau and a picture of Wallace Chaplin in her locket. She was secretly convinced that she was a great tragic actress. " I t makes me mad, she said to Mary Anne. "They scold us for going to the movies. They've got a machine an' an operator and everything up here. If they'd put on a few good films Ave'd all flock to see 'ein." •"'.•... They took Tillie's advice and sliOAA^ed "Our Mutual Friend." Tillie and Mary Anne heard about it and sniffed, "High brow! Not for us. They Avent to see "The Infernal Triangle," and afterAvards, "Why Willie Left Home." "Our Mutual Friend" Avas shown to a good many empty seats. It Avas a good play, too. Plenty of thrills, action, suspense, romance. And you Avouldn't come to see it. . Are Ave the four and one-half percent after all? Not AAdien Ave turn from the screen version of a masterpiece to the witnessing" of silly, unenduring trash. B. S. N. S. HAIL ANID FAREWELL f gt;0 AVE ONLY imagine it or is the sky really grayer and gloomier than it AA^as last Aveek. The campus certainly looks bleak and lonelA'. The halls are darker and chillier. Even this poor old paper looks bare and woe-begone. A good many of us tiptoe by Boom 216 with averted faces and a queer, catchy feeling in our throats; We look as if we had lost our best friend. Well, we have lost her—for six long months. Who Avas it that said, "Parting is such sAveet sorrow?" Whoever it was, he was all Avrong. All wrong. Since the announcement of Dr. Nash's coming resignation, no bloAv has fallen so heavily on the school as Miss Edens going aAvay. Everyone who loves her, and that means everj^one who'knows her, feels as if a vital part of the school AArere missing. The poor Messenger class, in particular, feels the solid earth caA*e in and the Avails begin to tumble doAvn. An infallible test for judging a teacher; ask the taught. And, in Miss Edens' case, Ave all answer in chorus, "She's our ideal; jolly and light-hearted, hard'working and sincere, frank and sympathetic. She is the best ever." Cheer up! She's coming back. That's some consolation. We'll be good Avhile you're away, Miss Edens. We'll forget all the slang Ave knoAV, eliminate " a i n ' t " and "he don't," and develop astounding vocabularies. Never more shall the split infinitive or that old sneak, the dangling participle, ruin our force and clearness. Not once shall "grim reaper" or "in our midst" profane these pages. Bon voyage! (Avhich is all the French AA^e know, and we hope it's all right.) Have a AAronderful time and enjoy your Avell earned rest to the fullest. You deserve it. But be sure to come back to Normal next September, just brimming OArer Avith energy and subjects for feature stories. A hearty AArelcome to our neAv Critic. We Avish her the best thing possible—that she be like Miss Olive Edens. On our OAAII this week. Like it? TO BE HELD TONIGHT Tonight at 7:15 the Seniors will congregate in the auditorium to enjoy a program of class talent, and a new year mixer. Among the numbers will be: stunts, songs, play of the entertainment and Hall's quartet, readings by Nell Henry, and "Bee" Dahlquist; dance numbers by Walton Biggerstaff. For muscially inclined students, Williams Normal Orchestra has promised to play several modern classic pieces. Then for the gymnasium, lots of new games, and ••splendiferous" excitement, followed by abundant refreshments. The committees are as follods: Games—Miss Mary Long, Marion Collier. Befgreshments—Mary Collins, Esther Windley, Ralph Miller. Social—Mary Wood, Margaret Spaight and Estill Cain. B. S. N. S. Porter (to Miss Edens): "It's getting late, ma'am.

A stirring address was delivered at last Wednesday's assembly by Professor E. J. Klemme, of our own faculty. Mr. Klemme is widely knoAvn throughout the state and everywhere that he is known he is regarded as a platform lecturer of the highest ability. Professor Klemme is a member of our Extension department and it is largely due (to his work in this field that the Bellingham State Normal has such a Avide and prominent reputation as ah institution of higher learning. Professor Klemme's message was on the theme "How Old Art Thou?" He dealt with his subject not as age is regarded as physical years, but from age in worth and experience. The students were one-hundred percent attentive to 'Mr. Klemme's remarks. At times the audience Avould be doubled up in laughter at his humor, which is of an exceedingly individual type, at other times they would be held, tense when some vital points were given to them. There were intervals during the address when if a pin should have been dropped on the assembly floor it Avould have been plainly audible. — B. S. N. S. Gossips are the spies of life.

Mr. Kolstad lias been doing much research work on this line for the last few years and he has yet found only enough material for a small pamphlet. As an example, Mr. Kolstad said his psychology instructor when she woke up in the morning and heard the whistles blow, would see a dark, pui'pleish streak flash across the draperies. She saw sounds, in other words. A famous French philosopher says the French vowels are to him colored. While speaking French the colors' of each vowel pass before him. Mr. Kolstad says they have on record the case of a young design teacher, whenever she ran out of designs she would attend either a syphonie concert or an opera. As she listened, the music would take different forms and designs. She would take these down as they came to her. Different types of music, of course, would furnish different types of designs. This is called Synaestesia, and it means simply this, the arousal of secondary sensation through primary sensation".

There are very few Normalites who do not know Sam, but the fact that he is going to play on the fat man's basketball team may help to identify him to those who are not numbered among his acquaintances. When interviewed by a Messenger reporter, Mr. Ford was very modest, and only after much persuassion divulged information concerning his past experiences. Mr. Ford graduated from Ellensburg high school in 1912, with high honors, not only in scholarship but in athletics, having been captain of both the football and basketball teams. He entered the pre-medical school of the State University in the fall of 1912, but was forced to withdraw on account of sickness. He earned his way while at the University ' by machine-shop and paper work. After leaving the Univer-servecl an apprenticeship in the Seattle- Astoria Machine Works, graduating in 1914. At this point in the interview Sam seemed to have forgotten ye scribe, was apparently oblivious of his immediate surroundings, and appeared lost in contemplation of his land of memories. He continued his story as follows: '•After leaving the Seattle-Astoria Machine Works. I spent several months on a trip through the Southern states earning my way as a boomer-machinist. Those were the good old days. In June of 1917 I entered the army aviation service at Seattle. In August of the same year I became an instructor of aviation, mechanics at dielly Field, San Antonio, Texas. I was finally put in charge of a hangar and took advantage of this by taking flights in the air." A chuckle escaped Sam as he continued, "I didn't like to eat the Kelly Field dust and on my own hook took leave of absence for none and one-half days in an attempt to get across the pond, where I could get a little mud. I was escorted back to Kelly Field from Pittsburg by two officers and introduced to a pick and shovel. Outside of this incident I was always a good fellow. I was discharged from the army in January, 1919. Shortly afterwards I made a trip to Alaska as engineer on one of the A. P. Fisheries boats." Mr. Ford has just recently accepted a position with the Herald and Reveille, which will take up his spare time hours.

But Bill is sure the wisest cuss: He didn't raise a nasty fuss, Ner trade the nmle ter an innercent. He knew what conservation meant. He fixed a harness, strong and tight,- Till that mule's heels was a wondrous sight, And then, with pulleys, belts and wheels, He utilized them wasteful heels. At every kick the wheels would turn; He pumped the water, ran the churn, Did the washin', sawed, the wood, Ground the feed and pround it good; Chawed the pigs to sausage meat; Baled the hay and threshed the wheat: Dug the ditches, laid the tile; Stretched the wire fence more'n a mile; Chopped the silage, shred the corn; Milked the cows both night and morn; Turned, the cattle out to graze; Dried the wash on stormy days; He ran a little dynamo, And, as his feet zipped to and fro, They stored the wily 'lectric juice In batteries for future use: So house and bam were lighted well, With current left enough to sell, Till no one need to go without, 'Who lived within ten miles about. In fact, Bill Jones grew rich and fat, Which isn't to be wondered at. He'd caught the secret of the hour, The harnessin' of wasted power. Some genius of inventive mind Should study hard and method find To muzzle, rope or tie the men Who wasted their force in kicking when PACIFIC LAUNDRY Blankets Cleaned, Carded and Made Like New.

The Nichols Hall girls are planning a party in honor of Mrs. Nicnols, next Saturday evening. Rubv Sunde spent the week-end in Seattle. Edith Linde and Gertrude Seniles spent the week-end at the home of the hitter's uncle, L. J. Senilis, at Laurel. Miking in a northeasterly for two and a half hours is rather chilly, say they. Carol Rahskopf was the dinner guest of Alic-e William, Friday evening. Ruth Church liked to throw snow balls. Last .week when the ground was covered with flakey white snow, the temptation to throw just a tiny snow-bail at her chum was too great to be overcome. Ruth threw the snowball. That snowball did the meanest thing! instead of hitting the chum it flew straight to Ruth's supervisor. That is why we put "like" in the past tense. Helen Alhnan and Fay McKiddy packed up and boarded the train for Auburn and home last Friday. They had a "dandy" time. We are informed by two Home Economics girls that Mr. Kibbe did a heroic deed last Friday. The girls say that he attended the luncheon they gave.

Last Saturday—sometime between 12 and 1 o'clock, Mr. Rahskopf found himself in a sad predicament. All said morning lie had been listening to the eloquent orations of the champion debaters. Of course he was intensely interested, but when the gt;eloek indicates lunch time, on's mind is apt to turn to thoughts of sandwiches and pickies. Mr. Kahskopf's did. lie thrust his hand into his pockets, while pictures of delectable luncheons danced before his eyes. But the pictures vanished when his repeated searches were rewarded with only five coppers. The sad truth must be faced. He had forgotten his purse. Meanwhile the remaining debaters were playing the parts of good fairies. They flew downstairs and when they ..•ame back they were carrying a queer looking bundie. When Mr. Rahskopf returned to his office, wearing a look of resignation, he found the dcl.aters busily studying their respective speeches and then looking at his desk he saw a bottle of milk, decorated with a how of green ribbon, standing beside a box containing—well, we will leave the rest to your hungry imaginations. Suffice it to say that good fairies know that even Normal professors enjoy feeds of peanuts and doughnuts and'apples and sandwiches. ALKISIAH CLUB. February 2, 1022, the members of the Alkisiah club enjoved a verv delightful program, after which a dainty and well planned luncheon was served by Reta Card, Marjorie Dueber and Johanna Miller. The program was as follows: Music By the Club Debate, Resolved, that the policy pursued by the United States in the Philippines is the best policy that could have been pursued. Negative. Affirmative Marie Tinker Marjorie Dueber Dorothy Zinzer Edith McCall Music Club Story. Philippine Setting Reta Gard Ue.-ent Current Events Julia Murray Club Songs Club ALITHEA CLUB. An interesting meting of the Alethia club was held Thursday, January 2G. The first part of the evening was taken up with the election of oficers, as follows: President—Frances Still. Vice President—Mildred Dawkins. Secretary—(«ladys 01so?i. Treasurer—'Edna Carnine. Sergeant at Arms—Ruth Oitchell. Club Critic—Brigitta Karkkonen. Club Reporter—Martha Anderson. Later in the evening a very fine program was enjoyed: Book Review Ruth Gitchell Legend of William Tell Brigitta Kankkonen Travels in Switzerland Mildred Dawkins GIVES MUSICAL TREAT A musical treat was given to the Normal students at last Monday's assembly. Charles Wakefield Cadmen, one of the leading coiu.posers and pianists in the world, gave a short lecture coupled with three numbers on the piano. Harrison Raymond, our local well-known voice instructor, added to the worth of the program, by singing three songs to Mr. Cadmen's accompaniment. On the Friday evening previous Mr. Cadmen gave a concert at the Metropolitan opera house in Seattle. He is an artist of absolutely the first rank. His appearance at the Normal was somewhat of an accident. He was visiting at the home of Henry P. Jukes for a short time. Mrs. Spratley of our music department, invited him to give a program- at the Normal and he accepted. Mr." Cadnuii has contributed much to the musical world as a composer. In his study of music he has especially emphasized the field of Indian Music. He is perhaps the greatest authority in that line today. In opening his program. Mr. Cadmen gave the following: 1. Pompadour's Fan. 2. Love Song (by himself). 3. Wolf Dance (based on a Blackfoot Indian melody). The Musician followed these splendid numbers with an illuminating talk on the subject of Indian music. He declared that tlie study of Indian music began but thirty-five'years ago. Contrary to a general opinion, Indian music has a distinct value to composers. Forty per cent of all the material gathered by musical investigators from the Indians possesses interest and value for composers. Mr. Ca;!maii had with him several -urioiis Indian instruments, among them the fiagolet. On this popular instrument he played four short numbers. The tones which he produced were particularly mellow and fascinating. It is interesting to know that Indian children have proven more precocious musical students than white children. Concluding the program, Mr. Harrison Raymond sang the following delightful numbers: 1. I Hear a Thrush at Eve. 2. From the Land of Sky-Blue Water. 3. At Dawn. B. s. N. S. HOW TO DETERMINE HYPNOTIC SUBJECTS In hypnotism one should always make a test to find out if the person is susceptible to hypnotism. There are, of course, certain types of persons that under no circumstances can be hypnotised. We make this test as soon as the person comes on the stage, look him straight in the eyes and say slowly and distinctly. "You are falling backwards." If the person so much as waves he is susceptible. Now suggest a thought to him. If he does not respond, repeat with emphasis. If he can In- hypnotised he will take up the suggestion and will be in your power. You now can suggest anything and he wiil respond. The key to hypnotism is the power of suggestion. To remove the thought or suggestion, a snap of the fingers will remove your power. He loses your suggestion and he will immediately return to normal. B. S. N. S. First Student: "Mr. Kolstad can put people in trances." Second Student: "Don't I know it?

It is called Early American Imprints. These books were all printed between the years 1770 and 1830, and it is due to a sale held by a large eastern firm that it was possible to acquire these very valuable books. The printing and working of these books are peculiar to the extreme, for instance a girl is always alluded to as a "damsel" or a "pious female." : This set includes works in the following: novels, poetry, journals, catchecisms, essays, dictionaries of various vocations and several different editions'of the New Testament. From an educational standpoint, these books are especially useful, both from a literary and historical view. They trace very thoroughly the growth and formation of America's great part in literature. Many critics maintain that America had no distinct literary achievements of her own, but if these same _ critics would thoroughly investigate this one set of books they would be convinced otherwise. Every student in school who is interested in what America has done in a literary way, should not fail to investigate this set of books. B. S. N. S. SENIOR MIXER. What ho! Ye Seniors, great and small!

A torn sail snapped and cracked like a "young cannon." He opened his eyes wide and sat up in bed, reaching for his watch, which was in his coat pocket at the foot of his bunk. It was 11:45 o'clock. He was to go on watch at 12, midnight, and watch the Chinese quarters until 4 a .m. The foc'le door slid back, and a tall, bulky figure entered. The man walked up to Johnny's bunk, looking down smilingly. "Come, kid," he said. "It's time for you to go on watch and its a merry time I aim thinking you are going to have, too. You better take my oil skin for its raining and blowing to beat blue blazes. Can you shoot?" Johnny told him that he could. "Just peel your eyes along this." He pulled a forty-four automatic from his hip pocket. "If any of them Chinks or Mexicans get canary—well, don't hesitate to make them acquainted with a little hot lead. A flock of hungry gungs are following the ship, and they are crying to beat Hades, and a little fresh Chink of Mex- ' ican meat wouldn't hurt their craws any." He removed his dripping oil skins, and laid the automatic on the bunk. "I am goinff to the galley and wet inv whistle with a hot wash of coffee, then maybe I'll get in a little poker game, a pooch of a fine game is on down in the fishermen's quarters. Six •hundred in silver was on the table till the ship began rolling, and it had to be removed. Bv holy Mount Pavlof! If one of them fishermen hasn't four twenty-dollar gold pieces, and where he o-ot them, I ' l r b e cow-kicked if I can tell. But I said to myself, "Gold, why tempt old Swede Carlson? I'll jingle those four twenties in my pocket before we hit Unimak Pass. Eh, kid ?" Johnny had gotten out of the bunk, but was having a hard time dressing, because the ship rolled so hard. He hung onto the bunk with one hand and pulled on his shirt and trousers with the other. It amused Swede Carlson hugely to see Johnny stagger about. "Were you ever at sea before, kid?" Johnny told him that he had been to sea once before. "Once, vou say. Well you will get your sea-legs in a day or two. I am going now and if anything should happen— well, shoot, see? But if you are afraid to play Avith that little toy aiitp-matic. you just yell down in the fishermen's quarters, and old Swede Carlson will come and show you how to mix things in the hell-hole." Johnny noticed Swede Carlson's mammoth chest and muscles, which reminded him of Jack London's "Sea Wolf." Johnny asked Swede Carlson if this was his first trip North. Swede Carlson lit a cigarette, looked at Johnny and laughed. "Hell, kid! I am so well known on Bering Sea that the fish call me by my first name. You have just three minutes before you go on watch, so I am going to tell you a little story. "This makes—" they both fell against the bunk when the ship plunged suddenly—" as I was going to say, this makes my fourteenth trip North. I have been through Unimak Pass twenty-six times. The least I made in one season was $12. Last season I made $2,000. I had that much when I hit Seattle last September. Well, I have only twenty dollars left. That is the way it goes, kid. The more a fellow makes the . 711 ore lie spends. These darn cannery men don't care for a fisherman. The first season, I and my pardner were capsized in a storm. My partner was drowned, and I went for three days without anything to eat, before I was picked up. In a blow last year, me and my pardner got too close to a sand-bar near the mouth of the Nushagak river, and the boat capsized. I escaped again, but my partner washed away with . a giant., breaker. When I reached the cannery, the first thing the superintendent asked me was, 'Where is the boat ?'" . The door slid back and a sailor nodded to Swede Carlson'. A tremendous roar of wind, flappnig sails, and a wild sea spewing and simmering like boiling water, came from outside. Johnny hurriedly stuck the automatic in his pocket, slipped on the oil skins and boots, and followed Swede Carlson out on deck. Swede Carlson and Kay the sailor went into the galley, and slid the door. A streak of yellow gleamed through a crack of the galley door. Johnny was left alone on deck. It was black dark, and the giant waves boiled up and Avashed over the decks. Ghostly figures crept around the masts and by the railing. Aloft in the rigging,, the two and three steel cables hummed and sang like a trunk phone line. With the aid-of a small flashlight, he found his way along the slippery decks to the Chinese . quarters. He crawled through a narrow door, and started to descend the steep steps. On each side of the steps ropes had been stretched. Johnny hung onto the ropes and entered the Hell-hole. The poker game was still on, the players hung onto the stationary table and dealt the cards between the plunges of teh ship. On deck the air was pure, with a tinge of salt, but here in the Hell-hole a sour, stale smell, which made him sick at his stomach, hit his nostrils. He walked doAvn the narrow aisles between the bunks as quickly as possible. In every bunk,, a Chinaman or a Mexican rolled with the ship's motion. Most of them were smoking long pipes, probably opium. In one corner, to themselves," eight or ten Hawaiians had taken bunks. They were still setting up, half naked. Three of them were playing string instruments and sweet sounds of Aloha filled the Hellhole. Johnny passed the gambling table again on the way out, and was invited to "get in."' He didn't tell them but he knew that he did not know the first rules of the game. .Amid much tobacco smoke and jabbering he left them, and went on deck. The wind was gaining force, and the waves leaped above the ship, pouring their frosty tops across the decks. T-wise he fell when the ship tipped so the deck came up to meet him. His face was dripping salt water when he entered the fo'/le. He sat down on the edge of his bunk. His brain throbbed and a feeling of being terribly far away haunted him. Victor, his chum, slept in a double bunk in the corner across from him. Victor had hung a red curtain in front of his bunk and Johnny could see the light still burned above his pillow. Terrible thoughts flashed through his mind, what if the ship should sink? He asked himself over and over. His teeth chattered, and he wanted to do something, but what could he do? He walked over to Victor's bunk, and lifted the curtain. Victor lav very quietly, sleeping. The roll of the ship did not disturb him and the expression of adventure which had been on.his face ever since they sailed from Seattle, had turned into a half-smilc. Victor's white sweater with the vellow letter, his college colors, hung on a nail over his bunk. "What a contrast!" Johnny thought. Down in the Hell-hole were the rakings of the underworld of San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle, but here was a young American, a college boy, the type that the American nation depends upon for the future. tie turned the light out and went on deck again. Some of the sails had been lowered, and broken cables swished across the deck. He was caught by one and thrown for ten feet, up against the railing. His arm and side ached, but he crawled through the narrow door again, B H 5 S 5 5 2 5 2 5 2 5 2 5 2 5 2 5 2 5 2 3 a H2B2S3HH2HaHHSHHaSlHHHaHHHBa "ALL NORMAL STUDENTS SATURDAY NIGHT" CECIL B.

The poker game was over, and everyone was in bed. The lights still burned, and a half-dozen pop bottles rolled around under the bunks. Tobadeo cans and rubbish slid around with the motion of the ship. The timbers of the ship cracked and moaned until Johnny expected the next breaker to tear the ship to pieces. On his way back to the foc'le .be peeped down into the fishermen's quarters. The game was still on and Swede Carlson and Kay, the sailor, were still on "the trail of the four twenties." It was his last round, when he came out of the Hell-hole deathly sick. His head ached, and his stomach hurt. He went as near the railing as possible and "fed the fish." At least sea-sickness had overcome him. Back aft, he heard the Captain swearing, he heard him say that the ship was six hundred miles from shore and one hundred miles out of her course. Away off to the east a streak of light showed. It was a pale, pale light, which gradually grew brighter,' seeming to come in little jets, with slight and sudden shocks. It made the heavens look as if they were being illuminated like a transparency, and as if lamps with flames were being raised. Little by little, behind the shapeless gray clouds, carefully raised with mysterious caution for fear of disturbing the mournful turmoil of the sea. Johnny awoke the relief watch and entered the foc'le. Victor was awake, and looked at him and smiled. "Isn't this great, this roll I mean. I can sleep just dandy." He asked Johnny what made him look so white around the "gills," but Johnny did not tell him. He rolled into his hunk with his face to the wall. His heart seemed big and swollen. He went to sleep mumbling Vic-Vic-Vic. -^-George Kermit Stephens. On Unintentional Descent. Oh, many's the ups succeeding the downs, For the slick sidewalks shimmer with sleet.

The Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan, MEChA, a human rights organization that focuses on chicano issues, is sponsoring Western's walkout, which is scheduled for noon Wednesday in Red Square. "We don't want extremist immigration reform," said Western senior Sierra Schraff- Thomas, a member of the student group. "We want immigration reform that includes human rights and justice, for everyone." The bill, HR 4437, will allow for tougher prosecution of undocumented people, she said. Undocumented workers have children who are natural-born citizens who would be left alone if their parents became felons and were imprisoned, she said. The group is walking out to send a unified message to state and national politicians, Schraff-Thomas said. Western's walkout includes a march to the Federal Building in downtown Bellingham, where marchers will present a letter protesting the bill to the Bellingham office of Rep. Rick Larsen D-Wash., who voted for the bill in December. Larsen expressed reservations about the bill in a December 16,2005 press release. see BELL, page 5 PETER THAN / THE WESTERN FRONT In preparation for Saturday's border rally, Ray Ybarra, of the American Civil Liberties Union of Arizona, trained protesters from the Coalition for Professional Law and Border Enforcement on March 29 at Taqueria El Polivoz on Meridian Street.

By clicking on the link "Listen to KUGS-FM online now" on the KUGS Web site's homepage, users can listen at their computers, said Oliver Anderson, Western senior and program manager. The core staff at the station worked on getting the Webcast up and running last year, Anderson said. see RADIO, page 5 BY JULIE WAGGONER The Western Front The Coalition for Professional Law and Border Enforcement, a group of local human rights organizations, held a rally to oppose the Minutemen Civil Defense Corps April 1 at the Peace Arch Park in Blaine. For four hours in the steady rain, some of the 50 activists handed out informational leaflets about the Minutemen to motorists waiting to cross at the Peace Arch border crossing in Blaine. Other members performed original music and theatrical performances at the event which began the Aguila del Norte Legal* Observer program.

Compiled by Rob Ashlock WIHI1I1II111 Election lacks candidates With deadline near, only 14 students have entered AS races BY JEFFREY LUXMORE The Western Front The deadline to enter the Associated Students elections is Thursday and only 14 students have applied for the seven board positions, said Western junior and the AS elections coordinator Brian Perrow. Out of the 14 candidates who have applied so far, 11 already work for or with the AS, he said. "We hardly ever see anyone from the campus community get involved," Perrow said. Applications are available in Viking Union 504 and are due back by 5 p.m. on Thursday. Applicants must collect 150 signatures as part of the application process, but Perrow said he has seen a candidate do that in a single day. Western senior Alanna Ahern, the AS vice president for campus and community affairs, said students with leadership skills would be successful in any of the board's positions. "When one faction of campus is always dominating the agenda, that's not good for students," Ahern said. "The ability to affect change on my campus is the top benefit for me," she said. Seven student board members comprise the elected positions of the AS. It also employs students through extra curricular groups, such as KUGS, the campus radio station, Perrow said. Kevin Majkut, director of Viking Union student activities, said the elections usually have at least two students running for each of the positions. Approximately the same amount of students ran last year compared to who has filed this year, he said. The lack of new students running for the board could be due to insufficient advertising PETERTHAN /THE WESTERN FRONT Western junior Michael Downing pauses to read an advertisement promoting the upcoming AS election. 11 out of the 14 applicants who have filed for this year's AS board elections are already involved with the AS. of the board and elections, Ahern said. One of Perrow's responsibilities as elections coordinator is to promote the elections, but no specific office exists to promote the AS. This could explain why advertising is not more widespread around campus, Ahern said. The AS Review and its Web site are available for students to quickly find out what is happening on campus, but these are not specific advertising outlets for the AS, Perrow said. Most of Perrow's work with promotions will focus on voter turnout. He is organizing radio spots and advertisements in campus publications, he said. Perrow posted flyers up with the Publicity Center around campus right before spring break informing students of the filing deadline, he said. The AS also advertised in kiosks around campus to promote the elections at the beginning of spring quarter, he said. Ahern said she would like to see students who are familiar with the AS run, but she wants new students as well. The elections are open to students without prior experience with the AS. The AS would not adequately represent Western students if it did not welcome applicants who are not previously affiliated with the AS, she said. The AS may intimidate students who are new to the group because new students don't know how the AS process works, Ahern said. Returning AS members may be more efficient in the board positions in the beginning because they understand the board members' roles and the issues Western faces that continue year after year, Perrow said: They may understand issues better because of their continued involvement, he said. Returning AS members tend to concentrate their efforts on continuing what they did the previous year instead of looking for new issues to focus on, he said. New students would offer another perspective, he said. "Fresh voices bring new ideas," Perrow said. The Western Front Online Don't cry!

The sign translates from Spanish as, "dignity without borders." CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Andres Ortiz said. The Minutemen began sporadically watching for illegal crossings of the Washington state- Canada border since October 2005, photographing any violations and reporting them to U.S. Customs and Border Patrol, said Tom Williams of Deming, the leader of the Washington state's Minutemen chapter: Ortiz will lead volunteers from the legal observer program in an extended period of watching the Minutemen. They will document any actions the group perceives as abusive at its Blaine headquarters using photographs, notes and videos. Ortiz said the legal observer program will show all the documents it collects to the Whatcom County Council at the end of April to convince the council to pass a resolution informing the Minutemen they are not welcome in Whatcom County. Ortiz said the Legal Observer program has 48 members, a quarter of whom are Western students. He said all volunteers attend a two-hour training in non-violent observation, teaching them how to avoid confrontations with the Minutemen. Methods include humor, changing the subject or refusing to respond to attacks, such as incidents where Minutemen spat on or kicked legal observers in Arizona where the Minutemen are active in patrolling the border, Ortiz said. "We want to see what they're up to and report it back to the community," said Western senior David Cahn, a member of the program. "We just want to observe and document them, not get in their faces at all." Ortiz said the program is based on Legal Observer Project in Arizona, where the Minutemen organization began patrolling the border in April 2005.
