Most of it is recyclable, but all of it is dumped. According toJoseph Razore, manager of Sanitary Service Co., which handles college garbage, about 35 tons of paper is hauled away each week. Saga Food Service throws away seven tons of garbage a week. Much of it is recyclable tin and aluminum cans. "We have to dump it all," Razore said, "because sorting it and allwould be too much trouble." But Hank Cunningham, a senior majoring in population dynamics,disagrees. "Recycling and composting garbage is inevitable. We're running out of land Â£as.t,".he said. -: lt;â€¢ - Cunningham is a volunteer worker for the Huxley College Recycling Center, 303 21st St.Since last June, the center has recycled about ten tons of materials, Western's output for one day,including about four tons of glass, five tons of paper and a ton of tin cans. The paper was taken toGeorgia Pacific, weighed, and then bailed by the Bellingham Junior Chamber of Commerce. Then it wasreturned to Georgia Pacific for recycling. Huxley receives $10 per ton for the paper. Glass is sorted bycolors into clear, amber and green, then it is crushed by hand. It finds its way to Seattle for recycling.Aluminum and tin cans are flattened after the labels arid"t'ffp~s~1raW"'been (CONTINUED ON PAGE 3)Hank Cunningham (left) and Stuart Hanson, who work with the Huxley recycling center, indicate somerecyclable garbage the center has collected. Chemistry classes to use computers By KEM AKERS The age of computer learning has been coming for a long time in this country; at Western it has nearlyarrived. Under an innovative programs grant, George Gerhold \pf the chemistry department is hard atwork setting up a system for using the computer to simulate lab experiments. Gerhold said he intends to introduce a fairly simple experiment to freshman labs such as identifying unknown substances. Afterrunning a series of basic experiments to establish certain facts, the students will turn to the computer torun simulated experiments which are much less time consuming than actual ones. "This will allow thestudents time to explore many more possibilities and to come into contact with many facts that theymight otherwise not have had time for," Gerhold said. Gerhold describes the new system as being veryunstructured. Rather than sticking to a pre-planned format, students will find their own means of arrivingat answers. "This will be a real challenge to freshman students," Gerhold said, "and it will probably be a challenge to many of the old students also. Instead of following a cookbook, that is, a lay-up sheet forthe experiment, the students will make their own formats." There are also other advantages to usingcomputer simulation of experiments. Gerhold said that "using the computer to simulate potentiallydangerous experiments will eliminate many risks. In addition to that, the computer is very patient.Students won't feel as though the instructor is waiting at his desk tapping his pencil awaiting'theiranswer." Looking beyond simulation even, Gerhold hopes to connect a computer to a slide projector and audio tape to present programmed material to a group. "With a set-up like that, the students would usea typewriter connected to computer terminals to communicate with the computer," Gerhold said.Connecting the computer to media such as projectors and tapes is very difficult, Gerhold said. The IBMtechnicians had done so successfully, he said, but the price of such a set-up by their method was"extremely high." Gerhold thinks there is a good chance that he and his group can find an alternatemeans of connecting which will be more cost-efficient. While these programs have been awardedgovernment grants and are to begin soon, Gerhold did not speculate what date they would actually begin.

WASHINGTON 734 7293â‚¬Rflnet/fot* All-college government begins in November subscribe to the WESTERN FRONT call 676-3160 today By JAMES BATTY Immediately following the Nov. 2 elections, Western will have a new all-college governance system designed to b r i n g t o g e t h e r the administration, faculty, students andCivil Service employes and to eliminate some of the red tape often attendant to actions with the current,segregated governance system. According to the proposed constitution, â€žthe all-college senate "shall be the legislative body for recommending policies to the Board of Trustees. It shall *S IBS CONCERTfz/T/cx/rr*/tr Kir.

It shall recommend to the Board of Trustees and the Presidentprocedures for implementing policies." Loren Webb, chairman of the Faculty Council, said that it wouldtake about a month of organizational and structural meetings to phase out the old government groupsand get the new senate rolling. Webb hopes the Faculty Council will be disbanded as one result of theunification effort because he expects to have good input from both the faculty and the students on thenew senate. The only way this can be done, Webb says, is if there is good representation by thesenators for their constituents and by what he calls "caucus groups" of people from the four segments of the college which will propose their policies away from the senate. In this way, there will be muchbetter coordination than now is possible, Webb said. The separate groups may be joined bycommissions within the senate including a proposed Academic Coordinating Council, a Business andFinance Council, a College Services Council and a College Relations Council. Optimistic Mike Barnhart, administrative assistant to President Charles J. Flora and chairman of the ad hoc elections committee,is equally optimistic. Barnhart believes the new system will provide a "united front" which can institutemany important programs and can make the four segments seek recognition from the senate .- Butoptimism for the new system of government is not without its reservations. Needs support Like anycomprehensive change, its success will depend on the support and the responsibility of every singleperson on the campus, Barnhart said. One of the basic ideas in setting up the new system is toeliminate red tape. But this will happen only if each input group avoids complicating itself. The senatemust differentiate between debating policy and arguing trivia, he said. Spending time on trivia will merelycreate confusion. The senate must have a constant input of new ideas and must be able to handle them efficiently and without the hassles customarily created by some governments. The imput groups musthave their stands organized before they approach the full senate, Barnhart said. Trial period If an All-College Senate becomes a reality at Western Nov. 2, it will undergo a two-year trial period before beingformally adopted by the Board of Trustees. At its June meeting, the t r u s t e e s accepted arecommendation by President Flora that the senate not be formally accepted until it had had anopportunity to correct any unforeseen inherent problems. Flora said the trial period will give the senateleeway to make changes within its structure without having to wait for approval by the Trustees. If aproblem arises, Flora's ratification is all that is needed to implement a correction. If the Trustees hadadopted the new system, the senate would have had to seek approval from the Trustees before it couldmake any changes. Barnhart summed up the reserved predilection toward the proposed governancesystem by saying: "Conceptionally, it's good. But it's going to take people to make it work." ---------- Western Front - 1971 October 12 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, October 12, 1971 Western Front 3 Western students picket Safeway store By BOBMcLAUCHLAN An estimated 25 Chicano and White Western students picketed the Safeway store at the corner of Cornwall Avenue and York Street last Friday. The picketers were part of a nationally organizeddrive urging grocery shoppers to boycott Safeway stores. Safeway is one of the largest chain stores inthe United States to sell non-union grapes, lettuce and other produce. Some 300 Safeway stores in 50major cities throughout the United States are being affected by this boycott, according to Sarah Welch,the state boycott organizer from the United Farm Workers office in Seattle. The national boycott stemsfrom the situation in Southern California where many farm workers are without union recognition, are paidless than union workers, are not protected from the indiscriminate use of pesticides and herbicides andhave no medical benefits or unemployment compensation. The National Labor Relations Act providesworkers in the United States with unemployment insurance, grievance arbitration and the right toorganize. According to a United Farm Workers' handout, farm workers have been excluded from this act. Approximately 85 per cent of all Thompson seedless grape pickers have gained union contracts becauseof public support, the handout said. But there are still 15 per cent without any union recognition.Cayetano Nani and Isidora Gonzalez, farm workers for more than 14 years, were at Friday's boycott inBellingham. They have seen the situation in California. They tell about non-union laborers on many farmsworking in 100-degree weather without water or bathroom and sanitation facilities. The child-labor law isignored, they said. Both agree that one of the big problems is the wetbacks, the Mexicans broughtillegally into the United States to work the fields. These people work for $1.65 an hour, receive nobenefits and are willing to work under undesirable conditions, Nani said. Union wages run from $2.05 toapproximately $2.40 an hour. Gonzalez believes that the U.S. immigration people aren't trying to keepout the wetbacks. "There was one incident in California where many wetbacks were caught on one farm;but when the immigration people went in to talk with the farm owner, the wetbacks suddenlydisappeared," Gonzalez said. In Friday's boycott at Safeway, picketers believed that they had achievedtheir purpose. At 1 p.m. when the boycott began, the parking lot was completely full of cars. By 4 p.m.there were many empty stalls. "It is the non-union people who are crossing the picket lines," FrankIvarra, the president of Western's MECHA, a Mexican-American student organization, said. Safewaymanager Grover Bunton said the picketing actually helped business. He said that last year's picketinginspired shoppers to buy non-union grapes. He said that the picketers could stay for a week if theywanted to-just as long as they did not block exits or park in the store's parking lot. Biology prof saysPhosphate detergents not harmful to bay By KIM DRURY A clean wash and a clean bay can go hand in hand in Bellingham, says Don Williams, assistant professor of biology, but Williams would prefer to seethe use of the controversial phosphate detergents rather than the so-called non-polluting types.According to Williams, Bellingham Bay is too large and open to worry about polluting with phosphatedetergents. "The only area where phosphates could do harm is in a fresh water environment where thearea is enclosed," he said. Williams, like many leading scientists, encourages the switch back tophosphate detergents because phosphates make a cleaner wash. Instead of phosphates, the "non-polluting" detergents contain nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) which recent research has shown may cause birth defects, Williams said. "People are ridiculous around here to be concerned about whether or not to use phosphate-containing detergents," Williams said. He also criticized the various detergent companies forplaying on people's environmental emotions by promoting the "non-polluting" detergents. And what of thecommunities not on the ocean? What should they use? "There really is no substitute developed as yet.Our real problem is getting away from the 'whiter than white" phobia," he said. War to perform War andAlbert Collins will be featured in concert at 8 tomorrow night in Carver Gym. The doors will open at 7.p.m. The $2 tickets can be bought at the VU desk or at the door. War is a group that plays soft rock-jazz.Formerly associated with Eric Burdon, War is now on its own and has had a nationwide hit singlerecently. Albert Collins is known for his blues singing and guitar playing. He has appeared in Bellinghambefore and will be performing with his own band tomorrow night. No smoking or drinking ProgramCommissioner Lynn Wienholtz hopes that the audience will not smoke or drink in the gym because themen in the athletic department get upset about messes made during concerts. The gym may be closedto future concerts if the floors are damaged. "If all goes well with this concert (no smoking or drinking), we hope to have as many concerts as we can this year, but we need the cooperation and assistance of allstudents," she said. Talk set Thursday on campaign reform David Hughes, former Congressionalcandidate who opposed U.S. Rep. Tom Pelly (First District Republican) in 1970, will speak on statecampaign reform at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in the VU lounge. Hughes presently is spearheading the efforts ofa group called Citizens for Honest Democracy which plans to draft an initiative early next year to reformcampaign practices in Washington. Proposed improvements include requiring candidates to report allcampaign contributions, including so-called "hidden" contributions from large firms in the form of officematerials or other subsidies; limiting campaign "spot" commercials and making campaign activitiessubject to public investigation. Hughes, a Democrat, was one of late Pres. John F. Kennedy's firstappointees in 1961 and was one of the youngest persons ever to be in the U.S. Foreign Service. He is a1960 graduate of the University of Washington and a 1956 graduate of Bothell High School in KingCounty. Western's garbage. . .

Glass should be cleaned and sorted into colors. Cans should havetheir lids and labels removed and then they should be flattened. Cunningham said that a problem hasbeen caused by people indiscriminately throwing paper around the recycling area. Paper lying on theground can build up heat capable of spontaneous combustion, Cunningham said. "They have to respectthe fact that we're working here as volunteers," he said. "If we have to spend four hours a day cleaningup after everybody, we won't be in business for long." Huxley's recycling capacity is unknown at thispoint, he said. A 30-day study to be done in November may determine the amount of garbage the centercan handle. The recycling center is operated by the Huxley Environmental Resources Bureau (HERB), adivision of Huxley College. Town, gown at odds on Arboretum By SHELLY LAVINDER Collegeecologists and city officials have been in dispute concerning the future of Sehome Hill for several monthsnow. Since last spring, the college has attempted to persuade the Bellingham Parks Board to transformthe tree-covered hillside into a city-college arboretum. Western owns 50 acres of Sehome Hill and theBoard of Trustees designated 35 acres of the land as an arboretum. Ronald Taylor, chairman of thecollege arboretum committee, has been attempting to obtain city approval of a joint development of thearea. However, the City Parks Board has been withholding its decision, preventing the college committee from taking any action. "They don't want to say no, so they don't say anything," Taylor said. However,Taylor stated that . if a joint-agreement t #ist not reached soon,, .the 'committee ' will' ' go' 'ah'e'ad; 'arid ''convert the college-owned land near Irving Street into an arboretum. According to Taylor, the city wouldprefer to increase the recreational possibilities of the area rather than preserve the ecological aspects."The arboretum committee wants to maintain the present recreational facilities but also develop naturalcommunities which would really increase the aesthetic value of the area; the two can go together," Taylor said. The committee is presently trying to raise sufficient funds to preserve the nature trails of thewooded area. Western students are among the many persons guilty of abusing the natural beauty by notusing the trails and littering. According to Taylor, the Parks Board has been unsuccessful in maintainingthe area and an arboretum would provide a more positive means of control. Students are urged to support the arboretum committee by writing to the Bellingham City ' Council and the'may or. ---------- Western Front - 1971 October 12 - Page 4 ---------- 4 western Front Tuesday, October 12, 1971 Front Editorials. 'To comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted' The grand rip-off While many students complain about high tuition costs, few ever seem toreally know or care just where their money goes. It was with this in mind that the Front carried acomplete breakdown of the $149 registration fee. Since then some of the figures have been discussedwith bewilderment and even anger. Prime among these was the $25 (approximately) that pays off a bond resolution on the residence and dining halls. This fact may not bother those students who are living incollege housing (though of course it does mean that they are paying an additional $75 or so, each yearabove their regular payment), many off-campus students contend such use of their funds is unfair. It isastounding that off-campus students are paying the same amount each year as a residence hall studentis (out of registration money) and receiving nothing. While there are about 2,700 students living inresidence halls and nearly 825 students in college apartments, some 5,900 Tutorials program Psst, heybuddy got some spare time?

The tutorials program needs an additional 250people with the desire to help some of the less advantaged people in our area to improve themselves.students are completely outside the college housing system. When you multiply that yearly $75 or soby 5,900, you can begin to understand how the college housing and dining can consistently claim it ischeaper to live on campus than off campus. What this amounts to is nearly 6,000 students at Westernhave been treated to a grand rip-off. Even those who live in residence halls are being ripped off when they aren't told part of their registration money is used for housing and dining~in addition to their regularpayments. If off-campus students want to get their money's worthy they may want to monopolize thetelevision rooms in the dormitories or the volleyball courts near Ridgeway Kappa and Nash Hall. Or, forthose who need laundry facilities, there are some provided in every dormitory. It might even be interestingto see what would happen if 6,000, or for that matter all 9,400 students deleted that amount from theirregistration fee. â€”Ron Graham If you would like to help, the Boys' Club, the handicapped, the HeadStart Program, local Mexican-Americans and Indians would greatly appreciate it.

Foreign language program The foreign language department is sponsoring a specialLanguage House program this fall, open to all foreign language students. The program is held once aweek, in the evening at the Language House in Fairhaven College. It is available for credit, with theemphasis placed on the spoken, rather than written language. Three main languages comprise the bulk of the program; Spanish, French and German. Faculty members act as supervisors for the basicallyinformal sessions. According to Walter Robinson, chairman of the foreign language department, about 50 students are participating in the program. Activities of the groups include viewing foreign films, singingsongs and exchanging conversations in a particular language. "We want the program to be fun. We wantstudents to use foreign languages in a freer and more natural atmosphere than the classroom offers,'Robinson said.

Counseling center Editor, Western Front: The CounselingCenter staff appreciates the efforts of the Western Front to inform the college community about thefunctions and present status of the Counseling Center. However, the story contained some inaccuracieswhich I feel obliged to correct. The present counselor-student ratio is one counselor for 1,800 to 1,900students, not one counselor for 1,000. If the latter were the case, I would not be concerned about thesevere shortage of staff. The majority of the 10 professional members of the staff are part-timecounselors, so that we end up with the equivalent of five full-time and one half-time counselors for thetotal student body. We are on a waiting list about eight months of the academic year. During thesetimes, an intake psychologist provides all students who request counseling the choice of being seen atonce rather than being placed automatically on a waiting list. In this way we can determine the urgencyof the student's problem. Then I, as director, in consultation with the intake psychologist, make theultimate decision as to whether the person needs immediate counseling, can be placed on a waiting list or be referred to another agency. Group counseling is offered for a variety of reasons, not only forproblems of extreme shyness. In fact, a student with severe problems of shyness might be traumatizedby group interactions in the initial stage of counseling. Groups are primarily composed of students whorequest group counseling. However students in individual c o u n s e l i n g may also concurrently beinvolved in group sessions or may join a group after completing sessions in individual counseling.Sincerely, Frank A.

This policy indicates two things to me: 1. The profit motive is too high. 2. Fear oftrouble. Okay-The object of a dance is to allow people to have a good time, to enjoy themselves while(and through) dancing, not to squeeze people for their money. Dances are not usually money-makingventures. Try something else if you want to make a lot of money. And anyway, who is going to pay after 11 for one hour of a dance? Then-I have never noticed any trouble at a dance on this campus. Fear oftrouble can sometimes, on its own accord, generate trouble. This fear is ridiculous; people are really very sensible when given a chance. So-I do hope that this policy is reviewed and changed. It would certainly reduce many worries and obviously would not destroy profit. And, it would no doubt contribute more funto the dances, some enjoyment which we all need. Sincerely and with best wishes, Scott Holm Aquestion for Dean Elizondo, dean of ethnic studies, whose "ass has been on fire, fighting like a son-of-a-bitch for d e c e n t e-ducation" Xo* minorities: Does the decent education which you seek include as its vernacular your choice of language typified by your "ass on fire"- and "a son-of-a-bitch?" If so, I propose that no decent education is necessary for expression at this level of language usage. In fact, noeducation of any kind is needed. All that is necessary to generate "ass" and "-bitch" talk is an inabilityto express in terms which really communicate. Language should facilitate communication. DeanElizondo, your "ass" and "bitch" communicate nothing clearly except that yon are capable of firing avolley loaded with this kind of emotional scatter pellets. But in Red Square, the Student Union, thedorms and the campus in general, shots like yours fall to the ground ten thousand times a dayâ€”tossed off with little intent except for juvenile shock effect a n d meaningless gross e x a g g e r a t i o n â€” p u e r i l e , inappropriate for any situation, devoid of any precise meaning, communicating nothing. As astudent and a member of a minority, I believe that language of your cut does not really advance thecause of decent education for anyone, let alone the minorities. Alan H.

Birdsaid. A formula drawn up by the state indicates that a custodian on an average eight-hour shift canhandle 20,000 square feet a night, Bird said. As it now stands,- Western's 28 custodians each take care of over 38,000 feet in academic areas, nearly double the state formula. "I am running at 56 per centmanpower according to this state formula," he said. He cited the gym and library additions as two areaswhere space has been added without additional custodians being hired. When the library is completed, an additional 90,000 square feet will be added to the two custodians' jobs, Bird said. Bird appealed tothe college community for "any help it can give in keeping this campus clean." After cleaning up dogs'messes, picking up trash thrown everywhere and digging cigarette butts out of tile and carpeting, thecustodians find little time for doing anything else, Bird said. In one instance a dog made a mess in frontof President Charles Flora's office. "We did not have anyone to go to the emergency," he said. If peoplewould make an effort to remove pets from buildings, the custodians could do what they were hired to do, Bird said. The college has an unwritten policy that pets are not supposed to be in public buildings, hepointed out. Haggard Hall has signs about keeping dogs out, but they do not do any good, Bird said.The custodial department has received facetious comments saying that dogs cannot read. According tothe Fairhaven College daily bulletin, Fairhaven is going to start calling the dog pound on dogs beingwhere they should not be because dogs have been tearing up the landscape and eating in the dininghalls. Custodians also are kept busy cleaning up after cigarette smokers. There is a policy about nosmoking in academic buildings unless they are designated for it or have designated smoking areas, Birdsaid. Yet, a considerable amount of cigarette ashes and butts are being ground into the tile andcarpeting making it extremely time consuming to get the floors clean, he said. In Bond and Miller Halls,there are over three acres of carpeting alone, Bird pointed out.

The Viking's 29-point low score nosed out expected winner SFU with 33, while completely outclassed Puget Sound amassed 74 points. After cutting a corner on the BurnabyMountain course, SFU's Rick Nicoud took first place in 32:41.2, on the five mile run. Steve Lippitt led the The Sporting Word A distant look at cross country By KENT SHERWOOD Sports Editor DICKBOWMAN First of all, the fact must be established that anyone who runs cross country must have ascrew loose somewhere. That kind of individual ranks somewhere between the Marquis de Sade andGeneral Custer on the scale of sadistic masochism. Comedian Bill Cosby had a great attitude towardscross country, saying he could not see the point in running "two or three miles just to make yourselfthrow up." Of course, one reason Bill and I see eye to eye is that we're both frustrated high-jumpers.High-jumpers are notorious for disliking long distances. The thinking being that if you have to go that faryou might as well drive. Naturally, those members of Western's distance team do n o t j h ^k along theselines, or, if they do, they don't let on to coach Dick Bowman. Bowman's fanaticism runs far enough thathe runs mornings with his sons, Joel and Seth. The younger Bowmans are track stars in their own right, winning six events between them in last year's Beliingham Middle School meet. But the current bunchof weirds running for the Viks could bring about a high finish in the Evergreen Conference this season.Western is led by returning lettermen Tim Tubbs and Paul Scovel, with additional help from returneesMike Shaw, and Steve Lippitt. Lippitt took second last spring in the Evco six-mile run and first at theannual Birch Bay Marathon. Add incoming freshmen Russ Fuller and William and Rick Rathbon andBowman feels the Viks could challenge for the league crown. â€¢ "Eastern Washington is awfully tough," Bowman said, "but we could develop into a fine group by the end of the season." The Savages are led by Bob Mapleston, last year's indoor and outdoor NAIA mile champ. Maplestone, a 22-year old sophomorefrom Wales, has taken over as a student-coach at Eastern following the tragic drowning of Arnie Pelluer,who would have entered his second year as cross country coach at Eastern. Western's harriers (aninteresting sports term which comes from referring to those who chase rabbits or hares) have already wonone meet, a three-way affair with Puget Sound and Simon Fraser over the weekend. Actually, crosscountry is growing in fan appeal. In the past, meets were held in front of very few spectators, besides thebirds and rabbits. One big reason was that the course often took the runners out of view. The only timethe fan ever saw the competitors were when they were fresh at the start and when they were dead ordying at the finish. In recent seasons, however, courses have been laid out so that the fan can stay inone spot and see almost the entire race. That theory has been shattered in some places because racesare now drawing so many people that one can't see the runners for the people. The recent fad of joggingto get into and stay in shape has also helped cross country's rise in popularity. Fans can now relate, aterm which is fast becoming a cliche, to the athletes. / It cannot be denied that harriers are true athletes.Anyone who has tried running just a lap or two on a track will readily attest to their physical shape.However, a cross countryman's mental shape will still be questioned. Admittedly, running through theforest is One way to enjoy the beauty of a fall afternoon, although, the ability to notice the changing colorof the maple leaves is severely hampered by an acute case of the bends. Still, cross country is fun towatch. From a distance of, oh say, six or seven miles on television in an easy chair, calling out to abuddy, "Hey, come look at the nuts!" Western rush with second place time of 34:13, as the Viks tookfive of the top ten places. The best UPS could muster was a fourth place by Willy Hernandez in 34:46.Surprising, was the way Western's coach, Dick Bowman, described his team's showing on "one of themost challenging courses in the Pacific Northwest." The top ten finishers were: 1, Rich Nicoud (SFU),32:41.2; 2, Steve Lippitt (W), 34:13; 3, Mike Shaw (W), 34:40; 4, Willy Hernandez (UPS), 34:46; 5, JimScorgio (SFU), 35:05; 6, Jim Boyde (SFU), 35:21; 7, Tim Tubbs (W), 35:36; 8, Paul Scovel (W), 37:06;9, William Rathvon (W), 37:14; 10, Doug Ibbott (SFU), 37:26. Other Western finishers were: 12, RichRathvon, 37:57; 14, Russ Fuller, 39:33. Oct. Oct.

Vikings bomb Raiders Normally, when your team is ahead by acomfortable but by no means insurmountable margin with only three minutes to play,the procedure is tokeep the ball on the ground and run out the clock. Somebody obviously forgot to tell Marshall Torre. Orat least if they did he ignored them. Torre came off the bench to throw two touchdown passes in thelast two mintues to complete Western's 33-3 rout of Southern Oregon College Saturday night at CivicStadium. The win gives the Viks a 3-0 mark and first place in the Evergreen Conference and a 3-1 slateon the year. SOC is 0-2 and 0-4. Western was surprised by the Red Raiders rugged defense whichallowed the Vikings only a 10-0 lead at half time. SOC was particularly tough inside its 2 5-yard line andforced Western's Lance Wilson to try four field goals, connecting on trys from 22 and 19-yards, whilefalling just short of a 38-yarder which was partially blocked, and missing a 20-yarder. Hard - running Tom Wigg turned in another fine performance with 127 yards in 27 carries. The 6-0, 195-pound junior fromIssaquah also broke the Western career rushing mark of 1,234 yards set by Ron Roe during a span from 1961-64. Wigg has now toted the leather for 1,266 yards. The Viks' first score came with 12:06 left inthe first quarter following af fumble by SOC's Bruce Keeton on the first play of the game.

Wigg also scored in the fourth quarter from the one, giving the Big Blue a 20-3 lead and setting the stage for Torre. Torre, a 6-1, 180-pound junior fromBelmont, Calif., took the Viks 53 yards in 10 plays, the capper being a 31-yard strike to Steve Jasmerwith 2:13 left in the contest.

Knowing the Raiders had to throw, Mike Venn picked off a pass fromSouthern quarterback Chris Cassidy, returning it to the SOC 31. Obviously not satisfied with onetouchdown, Torre went right back to work. A screen to Howard Priest lost three to the 34. On seconddown, Torre dropped back and scrambled to avoid a hard Raider rush. Torre finally planted and fired toDean Lewis, who had one knee down in the end zone. Punter Fred Dorr tried the conversion and bootedit wide left. Southern Oregon's only tally came with 14:14 left in the game on a 27-yard field goal byJerry Collins. Keeton led Raider ball carriers v/ith 40 yards in 13 carries. Cassidy was six for 17 throughthe air for 75-yards and two interceptions.

The conventionpassed 19 bills, failed 2 and placed 2 in committee. Six other bills were withdrawn by their sponsoringdelegations. The two bills sent to the Student Welfare Committee were the controversial Student Bill ofRights and the Bill of Particulars. These bills reinforce the rights established in the US Constitution andestablish particular student rights on the Western campus. A motion passed instructing the StudentWelfare Committee to publicize committee meetings and allow any person attending those meetings tohave full voting privileges on those two bills. Another motion that the convention go on record as being infull support of the purpose of the students' rights bills was passed. The convention passed a billrequesting the psychology department and the administration to reconsider its position regarding theretention of Dr. William Heid, and that the "Associated Students go on record as supporting the right ofDr. Heid to use his teaching methods and goals . . . and urge his retention as a faculty member." TheBeta delegation submitted a resolution that the convention go on record as giving unanimous support tothe continued bookstore investigation. _ (Continued on page 13) Three more resign from AS legislature;only 73 left Three elected AS legislators, including this quarter's speaker, have resigned their studentgovernment positions over the past two weeks. Jim Eberhardt, speaker, Terry Sanders, legislator-at-large; and Wally Sigmar, legislator, all gave up their student government posts. Eberhardt said that hewas forced to resign because of his 'The fantastic Dino's Grinder' academic load and for reasons ofhealth. Both Sigmar and Sanders gave no official reasons for their resignations, other than the fact thatboth have been dissatisfied with the AS legislature and its accomplishments this quarter. Theirresignations drop the legislature membership to 13, of which five are appointees chosen to fill previousvacancies. 10% off all food orders 'til the end of the month 111 E.

Doctor to speak on drug abuse during symposium Dr. Joel Fort, a doctor from Ohio State University and a specialist in drug abuse, will speak on "The Mind-Adulterating Drug (M.A.D.) World," at 8 p.m. Thursday, March 5, in the VU lounge. Fort will be a featured speakerduring the Drug Education Symposium, March 2-5, sponsored by Inter-Hall Council. The symposium will also include two faculty-student panels which will deal with the social, biological and medicalimplications of drug usage. Discussing the medical effects of drugs will be Dr. Christopher Taylor,assistant professor of psychology and Dr. Don Williams, assistant professor of biology. Dealing with the social implications will be Dr. Robert Meade, professor of psychology and Dr. David Pevear, assistantOswald says bookstore board ineffectual; should constantly assess co-op's actions Bob Burnettassistant to the editor The present bookstore board is ineffectual because it has not made a constantsurvey of the bookstore, according to AS legislator John Oswald. Comments made by Dr. HowardMitchell, chairman of the bookstore board, support this belief, Oswald charged last week. "I don't thinkOswald has the necessary background in economics, finance and marketing required to make thesejudgements. He is stating his f e e l i n g s , " Mitchell responded. A bill asking for disbanding and re-establishment with new members of the bookstore board and calling for bookstore manager Ray T.Knabe's resignation by June, 1970, died at the AS winter convention Thursday night. But delegates ofthe convention went on record, by a majority decision, as being in fuh support of a continued bookstoreinvestigation. The bookstore committee c i t e d lack of student representation on bookstore issues as a major reason, for the investigation. Mitchell said that any student or faculty may register complaintswith any member of the bookstore board at any time. He added that no major policy decisions had beenmade this year since there has been little student representation on the bookstore board. "The ASshould meet with the bookstore board at least once a year to discuss policies," he said. Oswald saidthat investigation had shown that Western's bookstore offered 170 different styles of sweatshirts, T-shirts and sweaters with the school emblem or markings, whereas the UW bookstore offered a maximum of27 varieties. "The UW bookstore has some 15 clothing stores in its immediate vicinity which offer whatthe bookstore does not," Mitchell said. Bellingham merchants do not offer the variety Western studentswant, Knabe said, "and we do." Legislator John Engstrom asked why so much paper has been stocked. Mitchell said that the possibility of a nation-wide trucking strike initiated the overstocking. "Papermerchants guarantee delivery, but can't possibly deliver without the truckers. Students can't write theirtests on a guarantee," he said. Pass-fail system to be reviewed by committee The pass-fail system,which was installed at Western two years ago on a trial basis, is up for review this year. Dr. RobertMeade, professor of psychology, has been appointed chairman of a committee which will study theeffectiveness of the pass-fail system. The committee, consisting of three faculty, two students, and oneadministrator, will study "opinioned evidence with respect to pass-fail education," Meade said. As many aspects as possible of the pass-fail system will be investigated and considered before the committeemakes recommendations on whether the system should be continued, dropped or modified, Meadesaid. Letters and comments on pass-fail education are encouraged, he added. They should beaddressed to Meade in the psychology department. pomwvm IHH Mexico Colegjo Victoria,Guadalajara, announces its 1970 summer session. Room, Board, Tuition, Fees, $250.

NBC NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE i ---------- Western Front - 1970 February 25 - Page 4 ---------- 4 Western Front Wednesday, February 25, 1970 Odd bodkins Constitutional proposal deserves supportThe Committee on College Government has re-submitted its constitutional proposal for Western. Aftermaking several changes necessary to make the document legal and more clear, the committee, underthe auspices of the Faculty Council, is now awaiting response from the constituencies. The previousproposal, which was printed in the Oct. 7 issue of the Western Front, received little response, and during several meetings concerning the proposal, few people were present. The committee needs responsefrom the people before it will present the document for a vote by the academic community. While theproposal, like all compromises b e t w e e n rival college factions (a d m in istration-students-facu Ity-staff), is not perfect nor completely satisfactory to everyone, we believe that the proposal is a well-thoughtout one and deserves more support than it has been getting. We believe that student response to theproposal has been especially poor and that the present AS administration should take some action inrecognizing the proposal and working with the committee towards presenting it to the academiccommunity. Last year the AS sat on the committee and fought for student representation. Perhapsthrough discouragement, student interest dropped off until there are no student members left on thecommittee. While student representation is not as high as some would like it, it is representation. Allthis confusion about student participation seems ironic: when there is a positive route to studentparticipation begging for a chance. The proposal is making a last stand, after years of effort. If it does notreceive response, it will die. Along with it will die a chance for honest student participation. â€”MikeGowrylow Off-campus students apathetic Student apathy has been demonstrated at Western again. Atlast week's legislative convention, on-campus students were well-represented. That means approximately a third of the student body was well-represented. But what about the other two-thirdsâ€”the off-campusstudents? Of an estimated 6,000 off-campus students, only about 150 signed up to be a delegate. Ofthose students, only 35 attended Wednesday and only 70 on Thursday. We have arrived at theconclusion that one of two situations have taken place: either the off-campus students have decided tolet the on-campus student speak for them, or they have developed an "I don't give a damn" attitude. Wewould rather think it is the latter. What bothers us is that after the convention is over and its bills havebeen enacted, there is bound to be some complaints. It just doesn't seem to be in the nature of peopleto be satisfied with what they have but when they have a change to do something, they "let George do it." Before you start griping about what the convention did and didn't do about such issues as parkingtenure and promotion and other important topics, ask yourself one question.

Jensen Director, Edens Hall I have been informed that the decision about whether to changeEdens South into office space this July has been forwarded to you. I hope that before the final decision ismade that you will consider what I present to you in this letter. In my position as director of Edens I feelthat I am one of the few that now represents student opinion about Edens. I am informed about bothsides of the argument. The students and I have presented the arguments to Jerry Brock, Director ofHousing, but we feel that it will further our chances of retaining the hall if we also present them to you. 'Last week we presented a petition to Mr. Brock containing over two hundred signatures. He expressed the opinion that the petition did not hold much importance since most of those who signed would not beliving in Edens next year anyway. The opinion was also expressed that so far most of the reaction toclosing Edens has been emotional and not logical. Both of these criticisms are poor. First, the petitionsigned by that many students is very important They have used the most proper of channels in trying toexpress their wishes. Whether they live in the hall or elsewhere is secondary. Second, emotional feelings about losing a place like Edens South are real and justifiable and should be considered valuable. Butbesides our love for Edens we do have many logical reasons for wanting to retain Edens as a home. Forexample, it is obvious that it is an appealing residence. During last Fall quarter, Edens South housed 192women. No other dorm on campus was able to triple up as Edens was. Although its capacity is only 132, very few complaints were registered. On the contrary, the south section of Edens, which is beingconsidered for office space, is now housing 143 women. It is still 11 over capacity because eachadditional girl petitioned the housing office and agreed to pay regular double rates even though living in atriple room, in order to stay at Edens. With campus population rising to over a thousand more next year, it seems logical to retain the extra beds at Edens. This was the feeling of the Housing Advisory council of Auxiliary Enterprises, which voted in favor of retaining Edens as a residence last week. I know that newbeds are promised for next Fall but this promise was in effect last Fall when Edens was tripled andstudents were sleeping in sleeping bags in the Viking Union, in tents, and in station wagons. The location of Edens is really ideally suited for a women's hall. Girls have told me that they could not or would notwalk to the campus at night from off-campus. Future plans, however, are for housing to be located a milefrom campus. Since many students are without cars, their use of the library and their participation incampus activities during the evening would be restricted. And finally, the constructionally unique qualities of Edens can never be duplicated in newly built dorms with today's architectural plans. For instance, Iknow that because of the wide hallways here, many small group meetings have taken place that have notoccurred in the newer north section of the building. Almost all of the south rooms have four large closetsand a wash basin. I wonder if administrators would appreciate these items as much as students do. Itmay seem trivial, but Edens South is the only dorm with interior ceilings ten feet high. This spaciousness is extremely pleasing. If academic space is really short and room must be found, would you pleaseconsider taking the Edens' north section? Since those rooms and hallways have always been consideredsomewhat sterile and cold it is easier to justify losing them to office space. Edens South is a beautifulold building that is now in the same position as the Pike Place Market in Seattle. Those in favor ofrenovating were right perhaps about making or saving money. But they were wrong about making a betterspace for people. The charm and beauty and historical value and uniqueness of Edens South cannot bemeasured in dollars and sense. Office space will always just be office space. Converting the "Home ofColor and Light" would be tragic. . / * j * # / / / ^ y ^ ^â€¢â€¢Â«**~~Â«Â«*-~~Â«Â«..MÂ«â€¢â€¢â€¢Â»Â» â€¢* gt;,*â€¢.** %r fcaÂ»Bjfc.* *J â€¢ ---------- Western Front - 1970 February 25 - Page 5 ---------- Wednesday, February 25, 1970 Western Front Proposes faculty park-in Editor: As a member of thefaculty, I would like to voice my concern over the exorbitant student parking fees. Since the students'objections have only been met with the advice to take their demands to the parking committee (whichapproved the present situation), perhaps the following facts will shed some light on the generalconfusion. 1. The maximum student parking fee per quarter at Central is $3, at Eastern is $5, at WSUis $2.50, at U of Wis $15, as compared to $18 at Western. 2. As of June 30 the parking fund had abalance of $66,850 to the good. Note that is after the $43,000 spent last year to improve the lots to theirpresent expansion. 3. If the parking fees had not been increased this year and the revenue from permitshad remained the same as last year at $52,160 (even though there was an increase in the number ofparking spaces), the net profit for this year would have been $26,160, using their projected operatingexpense of $25,000 for this year. 4. The projected profit for this year is $70,000, thus giving a projectedtotal balance of $136,850 at the end of this year. The figures in the last three statements are containedin "Western Washington State College Parking Study" presented to the Board of Trustees on July 11,1969 and approved by the Parking Committee. Since the college exists for the benefit of the studentsand n o t the f a c u l t y or administration, why should parking be a profit-making operation? Myinquiries have led me to conclude that the administration feels that such a large profit is necessary inorder to finance the sale of bonds for a proposed new Viking Union ramp parking structure. The cost ofsuch a structure is approximately $700,000 for 340 stalls or about $2,000 per stall. Thus the studentsare being forced to subsidize a parking structure from which they themselves will get little benefit. Toclaim that students will have the same right to park there as anyone else is like saying that according to the present parking regulation, students have an equal right to park in the lots near Old Main.Somehow it just never works out that way. Moreover, to make such a structure feasible, there will haveto be day and night parking permits. This means that even if a student were willing to pay an even higher fee to park in such a ..r^a^as?^. structure, he could not park there at night without additional charge.There are other ways to raise the initial equity needed to build such a parking structure than from thestudents. In order to stress my conviction that the student parking fees should be lowered, I will parkmy car in Red Square this Thursday at 10 a.m. I invite any other concerned faculty member who iswilling to stand up for the students to join me. Richard Vawter assistant professor physics departmentHospital thanks Western for donation (For those who doubted me or thought I was insincere, here is aletter explaining following matters that occurred after the collection was taken to Seattleâ€”Philippe Jean Edward Bateman.) (Ed. note: Bateman collected money for birth defects and this letter from theChildren's Orthopedic Hospital and Medical Center in Seattle is in reply to his efforts.) Dear Students ofWestern Washington State College: On behalf of the Board of Trustees, it is my pleasure and privilegeto send you this expression of deep gratitude for your recent, magnanimous donation to our Hospital.Your welcome generosity will help to meet the costs of caring for, among others, three teen-agers whohad to miss out on going home for Christmas. All three are paralyzed from the waist down as the resultof accidentsâ€”Sheila in a diving mishap, John in an automobile crash, and Bill on the football field.John's left arm is also useless at the moment. All three happen to be beautiful, alert, intelligent children, cuffed by seemingly senseless blows from fate right out of their happy, active and rewarding life pattern. They are participants in our newly instituted Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation program, whichinvolves many months of intensive treatment on the most comprehensive possible scale: they receivedaily physical and occupational therapy, schooling, baths, massage, in sho.t our every rehabilitativeresource; and in between they are strapped to "circle beds," in which they can be turned and tilted andeven stood upright. Although the word "lucky" may be inappropriate, these children are at least lucky inthe sense that they have been accepted for what we call P.M. andR. Due to the small number of bedsat present available for P.M. and R., the only candidates we can accept just now are those whoseprognosis is favorable. So there are good reasons to hope that Sheila and John and Bill may still reachthose futures bright with promise. Futures in which you have had a stake. We do thank you.

Doan criticizes Bromley Editor: Jim Bromley's attack on ASPresident Greg Baker (Feb. 17 issue) is preposterous. Bromley claims that the parking demonstration in Red Square was Baker's attempt to inspire confidence in his leadership capabilities by inflating issues. On the contrary, the demonstration was initiated and organized by AS legislators. This fact Bromleyknew. The only planning on Baker's part was to persuade the organizers to change the site from HighStreet to Red Square. This was a wise decision, as even college administrators have admitted. Bromleysays that "Baker is not justified in demanding that the committee make known its reasons fordismissing Heid." Dr. Heid disagrees; he has requested reasons for his dismissal. Bromley thencontradicts himself by saying, "It would do well for the tenure and promotion committee to publicly state its criteria for determining whether or not a faculty member will be rehired or promoted." EvidentlyBromley's long time stand that students are irresponsible has affected his personal journalism. v AlDoan senior soc/anthro (Ed. note: To avoid confusion on the matter of staff and guest commentaries, itmust be remembered that they reflect only the view of the writer, and not necessarily anyone else.

"The college administration has no right to tell students what they can and cannot do," George Hartwell, activities commissioner, saidduring an all-college forum last Thursday. Approximately 60 people a t t e n d e d the studentgovernment forum called to d i s c u s s the r e c e nt demonstrations in Red Square Feb. 12 and at theplacement center Feb. 11. Dean of Students C. W. McDonald said that student leaders are notresponsibly representing the student body on parking problems. "Student representatives haven't shown up at parking committee meetings and there have been no concrete solutions made," McDonald said.The dean said that student representatives on the parking committee "failed to act" during the Board ofTrustees meeting three weeks ago when present parking regulations were being finalized. "Red Squareis not a parking l o t , " McDonald said. "We probably would have allowed a demonstration if you hadcome to us first." Western's demonstration policy, found on page 26 of the Navigator, was approved with all elements of the college community represented, the dean said. "But I don't think that the Board ofTrustees could rescind regulations arrived at by orderly democratic processes." Don Alford, head ofWestern's Chapter of the ACLU, said that present parking regulations were a legal form of car theft. Thesystem doesn't allow for an appeal channel, he said. "The state legislature's attitude is that a car is notessential for college," McDonald said. "I don't buy that attitude." He stressed, however, that parkingcosts must be paid by the users. State funds are not provided for parking. A reassessment of parkingfees will be made at the end of t h i s year, according to McDonald. "I guarantee they (the fees) won't go up," he said. Computer selection will pick appointees Computer selection is being used now and will be used again in the future to randomly pick students for committee positions and other appointments,according to Mary Robinson, dean of women.

Flinn attacks 'fraudulent' ACadvertising Editor: Last quarter, the Activities Commission sponsored several tournaments, one of which was a chess tournament. Each participant was required to pay a $1 entry fee in order to be eligible toplay. In the event that 25 participants did not sign up, the money was to be refunded. I have visited theActivities Commission office five times since the cancellation of the chess tournament. During eachvisit, I was told to see a particular person and the money would be refunded. Every time I approachedthat person, he told me to go to someone else, and this went on until I got tired of the situation andsimply left my phone and address with someone at the office. The quarter is nearly over, and I haveheard nothing from the Activities Commission.

The loss of one dollar is by no means a major issue;fraudulent advertising and stealing certainly is. It was quite clever to hold two of the other tournamentsand then let the smaller ones slip. That provided a very good cover for the minor tournaments. Thegeneral idea is that the few people who lost their money on the cancelled tournaments will grow weary of chasing around to get their refunds, and the Activities Commission will have enough capital to sponsoranother series next year! Dan Flinn junior English Condemns off-campus apathy Editor: Hooray forrepresentative student government! The legislative convention showed h ow well democratic governmentworks at Western. The on-campus and Fairhaven students, comprising about a third of the student body, were beautifully represented. The off-campus students, comprising the remaining two-thirds of thestudent body, about 6,000 people, had all of 35 delegates. Any screams of anguish and/or frustrationemanating from the souls of the off-campus students after the convention wraps up and its regulationsand laws are put into effect, should be done in private. And, perhaps, with just a bit of shame for nowshowing such concern when their opinions and their votes were desperately needed. P. B.

Your Committee on Government herewith presents its final proposals for a WesternWashington State College Constitution, By-laws and Bill of Rights. We have worked just about one yearon the document; we have interviewed many individuals, spoken with many groups, held many critiquesessions, read many documents and spent many hours in discussion. What we offer you is adocument which is necessarily a blend of conflicting views yet one which we believe workable andimprovable over time, given the will to do so. Beyond what we wrote in introducing this Constitution tothe WWSC Community on October 7,1969 in the Western Front, (viz., remarks on the relation betweenthe Constitution and By-Laws; recommendations (also repeated in the Constitution and By-Laws) forratifying the documents; election of the first Senators; and remarks on the relation between the Board of Trustees, the academic community and the proposed Constitution) it may be well to summarize herewhat major changes we made in the documents since then. They fall under a few headings: 1) The firstparagraph of the Constitution gave us some trouble and gave trouble to the Attorney General's office.After correspondence and discussion it appears our new wording will not be unconstitutional, whereas the previous language was rejected as likely to be such. 2) An Undergraduate Council. Here we sought topreserve a logical and functional parallel between graduate studies and undergraduate studies by givingthis council the title, "Undergraduate Council," instead of "Arts and Sciences Council." It then followedthat the Undergraduate Council should have as major subcommittees an Arts and SciencesCommittee, a Teacher Education Committee and a General Education Committee, (see 4.411) 3)Matters of welfare (salary, retirement and other fringe benefits) we finally decided should start in asubcommittee of the Business and Finance Council where budget requests and budget allocations aredrawn up for review by the Senate. Of course the Senate's "Committee on Council and Committees"appoints the Business and Finance Council with the Senate's confirmation. Moreover, this new Welfare Committee must also have the approval of the Senate's Committee on Councils and Committees (see4.61). 4) Though not stated in our proposals it is a consequence of them that the (old) Faculty Counciland Faculty Forum will have no "official" status vis-a-vis the Senate although they may continue to existfor whatever other purposes the faculty wish them to. Most of the functions of these bodies will in effectbe displaced by the functions of the newer bodies. To repeat our summarization of the matter from ourlast report: In consonance with principles we agreed upon and submitted to the college community late in the Spring, we have attempted to create a small, efficient, visible governmental structure which willoperate, hopefully, through a reasoned debate, cooperation and considerable delegation of powers.The structure is a democratic one but the main thrust of the community's work, the academic, isplaced mainly in the faculty's hands, with the student constitutency having a large share of theresponsibility of governance in both the academic and non-academic areas. Specifically the benefitsaccruing to each constituency are as follows: The faculty will become a more than merelyrecommendatory body increasing considerably its role in the institution, and it will become thestrongest partner in the joint enterprise of making the policies and setting the procedures for thegovernment of the College. Students will in effect become the junior partners in the same areas. Theirvoices and votes will be exercised to a degree not presently enjoyed. Administrators will participate inthe making of all-college decisions and freely be able to voice the concerns and problems of their officesto an all-college governance heretofore denied them. Finally, one general advantage may be mentioned, namely, the creation of a common forum where the various constituencies can come together to speakand act for the good of the entire college community.

SUPPLEMENTARY REMARKS Concerning the individual rights-grievances- judicial issueswhich often arise on campus, your committee concluded that there was no need for an elaborate formalstructure such as is found in many political systems. Rather, we thought that in addition to the normalpractice of seeking redress from the agencies, individuals or officers most closely concerned or involvedin a particular case,that the structures presently used in the various constituencies for seeking justice(Judicial Committee, Grievance Committee, Student Judicial Board, the various Deans' offices, etc.) wereadequate and needed only our acknowledgment. The only new body we suggestâ€”similar to theGrievance Committee of the present Faculty Councilâ€”is a procedural committee of the Senate whichwould not administer grievance procedures nor act as a higher or appellate body, but would try to assurethat appropriate grievance procedures were available to all college personnel. The charge to this"Committee on Individual Rights and Grievances" might be to review for the Senate and report to it onprocedures to protect the individual rights of all college personnel. The Committee may find that certain of the existing procedures are appropriate. In other cases the Committee might find that the procedures are inadequate. In still other areas the Committees may find there are no procedures that protect therights of the individual. Where the committee found the procedures inadequate or non-existent, it would be the Committee's responsibility to recommend to the Senate appropriate changes or additionalprocedures. The Senate's Committee on Councils and Committees will, we trust, serve to nominateand coordinate membership on all Senate councils and committees to insure a distribution of talent tomatch, insofar as possible, individual interest in serving with appropriate assignments, and to provide anoverview of who is serving when and where. In sum, this committee should allocate talent to necessaryactivities and arrange suitable procedures for allowing members of the community some choice in theirassignments. The Senate should first address itself to the critical formative questions posed elsewherein, this document. As each new Commission, Council or Committee is appointed, the Senate shoulddetermine the time the new group becomes operational and when the old group or groups become non-operational. The ACC is the first body which the Senate will appoint. The ACC should carefully considerthe question of Cluster College and Cluster Program representation in its subcommittees. It appearsadvisable (and we have provided for such in the Constitution) that the ACC should have members fromthose colleges and programs on subcommittees. We also leave to the Senate (especially to itsCommittee on Elections) many details of election procedure, but we trust that these can be worked outand incorporated in By-Laws. The Senate should consider the appointment not only of a Parliamentarianfrom its members but also a Sergeant at arms, or equivalent officer, to maintain order. For purposes ofeasier communication with the Board of Trustees we hereby suggest the possibility of asking the Boardof Trustees to appoint one of its members to the Business and Finance Council with voice but no vote. A system of computerized voting should be considered by the senate for ease and efficiency or referenda,amendments, schoolwide ballots, elections, and the like. A room or "chamber" large enough for theSenate and its audience should be scheduled both for regular Senate meetings and Executive Committeemeetings. Lecture Hall 4 appears a possibility. Consideration should be given to means ofidentification of Senators on campus A Constitution Review Committee should be appointed by theSenate early in its first term to keep the Senate informed on the successes and failures of theConstitution and By-Laws, and to draft modifications for the Senate's review in the form of new provisions, amendments,.and the like. ---------- Western Front - 1970 February 25 - Page 11 ---------- Wednesday, February 25, 1970 Western Front 11 Symposium speakers discuss religions "People aremore shy of their religious convictions than their sexual ones," according to Dr. Keith Bridston, professor of systematic theology at Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary. Bridston was one of three speakersinvolved in a two-day symposium on religion, held last week in the VU lounge. The symposium, jointlysponsored by the Campus Christian Ministry and the Activities Commission, also featured two otherspeakers: Dr. Alan Watts, president of the Society for Comparative Religion, and Michael Murphy,president and founder of the Esalen Institute. All three men discussed what they believed to bedrawbacks in traditional religious worship, and suggested what elements a future religion should contain. "Meditation in our culture has been suppressed and neglected," Murphy said during the first lecture last Tuesday morning. ' ' T h e r e ' s something fundamental within man that's trying to surface in hisactivities." Sensuality and the arts of friendship and love are also being neglected, Murphy said. "Weneed to be sensitive to what our bodies are telling us." Murphy discussed the following four processeswhich, he said, are cultivating a better awareness to our senses: 1. A richer array of disciplinesavailable to us. 2. The willingness to experiment in every technique of meditation. Dr. Keith Bridstonâ€”photo by todd 3. An appreciation for individual differences of perceiving the world. 4. The marriage ofstructural design with a transformation of consciousness. Watts says meditation slips into 'non-verbalworld of here,now' Alan Watts has described meditation as the act of "slipping out of the verbal world ofsymbols and into the non-verbal world of here and now." An over-capacity crowd of approximately 800"slipped out" in silent meditation with Watts, president of the Society for Comparative Religion, lastTuesday night in the VU lounge. The s e s s i o n lasted approximately an hour. Sitting cross-legged ona rug, Watts told the group, "Close your eyes, and become aware of the sounds around you." Don't tryto name the sounds, he said. "Don't try to make sense out of anything I say. Your brains will tell youwhat it means." The group began to practice deep breathing. local poet to read own works at COMLocal poet and professor Knute R. Skinner will be featured at 9 p.m. Friday, March 6 in the CCM House. The reading, sponsored by the Campus Christian Ministry, is free. "Become aware of your breathing.Let your lungs breathe as they want to breathe." The atmosphere was generally free and easy, evenhypnotic. Some people were gazing at Alan Watts -photo by todd Watts, but most were sitting withtheir eyes closed, on couches, chairs or crosslegged on the floor. Children crawled about the silentmass. "There isn't any past or future. There are memories or expectations, but they are immediate."The meditation reached a climax when Watts began chanting Byzantine liturgy. The sound of the groupfollowing along was like the low droning of hundreds of bees. The use of the chant was a techniquecalled "matra," which, Watts said, makes it easy to "stop thinking and to come into a direct realizationof what is the center of the universe." According to Watts, there is no purpose to meditation. "Youmustn't understand what you are doing. The whole quest is being here."

"We're afraid to celebrate, we're afraid of spontaneity and we're afraid of beingafraid." There is a feeling that the Christian religious tradition has hindered man's search for wholenesswith himself, other men and nature, Bridston said. "Religious anxiety is due to doubts and fears we havewhich we're afraid to bring out." A form of psychoanalysis, which Bridston called "theonalysis," hasbeen developed to deal with these anxieties, he said. Bridston criticized the traditional sacraments,such as holy communion and baptism, for having lost their original vitality and sensual impact. "Howcan one hour on a Sunday morning turn you on? If it does, it is truly a miracle." The theologian described two requirements which the church must meet. "We need a reconceptualiza-tion of what religion is and to recover the real presence of God in and through, over and above true humanity," he said. Wattslinked traditional Christian concepts of God to present ecological problems. Man has a hostile attitudetoward nature due to his image of God as a monarch, he said. Watts described the belief that man isnothing but an i nsignificant "self-perpetuating fluke, made up of skin and ego and nothing else." "Wehate materialism. We hate our bodies, and we're afraid to touch each other for fear of it being interpretedas an indecent advance. "If physical skin and ego is all you are, you'll always feel hostile."

Adderly Quintet to give concert Jim Bromley staff reporter A 2-day experience in jazz is in store when the Cannonball Adderley Quintet presents a concert and series of lecture demonstrationshere Friday and Saturday. Both events axe in conjunction with Black Culture Week. The quintet,conducted by a l to saxophonist Julian "Cannonball" Adderley, will present a concert at 8 p.m. Friday in Carver gym. Tickets are on sale at the.VU desk. The Adderley group will also hold a series ofdemonstration lectures at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. Saturday in the VU lounge. The morning session will dealwith samples of five periods of jazz from early ragtime and Dixieland to contemporary free-form avantgarde. In the afternoon, a seminar on "Black Music: A social Factor" will deal with jazz as an art formand mirror for social change. Individual workshops on brass wind, woodwind, stringed and percussionwill be conducted by members of the quintet following the lecture.

RidgewayAlpha's bill asking that certain confidential and personal records maintained in the placement center bedestroyed at the student's prerogrative and that no future files of that nature be kept was passed. AFairhaven bill demanding that students share authority in faculty rehiring and granting of tenure waswithdrawn in view of a similar off-campus bill which passed. Another off-campus bill demanding equalvoting privileges for students on all curriculum boards in all interdepartmental programs and departmentswas passed. The convention passed a bill recommending the AS legislature take steps to abolishseparate faculty lavatories and parking spaces on all college-ope rated facilities. A bill concerning the war in Vietnam was passed and says, in part, "that the Winter Quarter Legislative Convention goes on record as being in opposition to the war in Vietnam and demands the immediate withdrawal of all US. troops."The bill also provides that a campus-wide referendum whether to condemn the war or not be conducted.Several other important bills were passed: â€”library hours be extended to midnight each week and to 2a.m. during finals week. â€”an investigation be launched into the operation of the health center and theeffectiveness of personnel. â€”the possibilities of implementing a low-cost day-care center for pre-schoolchildren to be used by students and faculty. â€”that Activities Commission dance policies be altered toallow any recognized college organization, including dorms, to sponsor dances through the Commissionon a first come, first serve basis. â€”providing suitable voting accommodations in the Fairhaven office forstudents living at Fairhaven and Hidden Valley. â€”that a commission be established to promote voterregistration for eligible persons on the campus community. â€”that a program be established directed atrecruiting women into graduate schools. The two bills that failed concerned the abolishment of thepractice of confining meal ticket usage to the meal ticket purchaser and mandatory appearances bycandidates for the AS legislature.

About 30 landlords attended the meeting last Wednesday to negotiate a contract that "will protect the tenant and be fair enough that the landlord will use it," Cole said. Landlords are just as interested in a mutually p r o t e c t i v e contract, he explained. Such a contract will alleviate some of the landlords'problems, he said. A 12-man panel has been formed consisting of six landlords and six tenants, Colesaid. Kay Collinson, a member of the legal aids department, will be in charge of the actual wording ofthe contract, Cole said. "The Tenants Union cannot force a landlord to use the contract. So it has to befair to him (the landlord)." Cole hopes to have the contract ready for use by Spring quarter, he said. If amutually-acceptable contract is developed at Western it could be a pace-setter for the rest of thecountry, Cole said. Further negotiations are being scheduled. Tenants interested in the contract maycontact Cole with questions or suggestions.

Dear AS President Greg Baker and Associated Studentslegislators: It has come to my attention that during the demonstrations held while the CIA was visiting the campus on Feb. 11, there was a flagrant breach of college regulations by several students. The violationinvolved the use of intoxicants on the campus. In addition to being a violation of college policy, the use ofintoxicants in a public place is in violation of local and state laws. Up until the point that intoxicants wereintroduced on the scene, the actions of the group demonstrating about the CIA visitation on campus were well within the demonstration policy which has been adopted by student, faculty and administrativeaction. The college will not, and cannot, condone the open drinking of intoxicants on the college campus. Students involved in such activities are subject to disciplinary action by the appropriate college judiciarybody and are even possibly subject to action by civil authorities should law enforcement agencies external to the college become involved. Because of the large number of students involved and because of thedifficulty in identifying all of the individuals, the college administration is reluctant to selectively instituteaction against those few who could be identified. It should be further noted that non-students were alsoinvolved in this incident. Needless to say, I am disappointed that an otherwise legitimate demonstrationhad to be marred by the introduction of an obvious breach of the college code of conduct. It should benoted that the issue of a "pub" on campus and other modification of the policies governing the use ofintoxicants on campus are being considered. Responsible actions on the part of students are certainlyinvolved in the total decision-making process in arriving at responsible regulations concerning the use ofintoxicants. It is my hope that problems such as this can be handled through the collective efforts ofstudent government and the college administration. I recognize that the Associated Students in no wayendorsed or condoned the violation that ensued. However, I encourage some positive action on the part ofyour legislative group and other student agencies in helping prevent the type of incident which occurredon February 11. Your opinion and cooperation regarding this matter will be appreciated. This office, andthe administration, remain open to entertaining further negotiations pertaining to the regulations governing the use of intoxicants on campus. C.W.

The Wildcats upped their record to 24-1 in nailing down 71-58 and 54-49 decisions, running their win skein to 17 straight. Western rallied from a 27-23 halftime deficit Saturday night totake a 31-30 lead with 14:45 remaining. Guard Mike Clayton, who scored 20 points in the contest, wasthe main figure in the Viking uprising. He was assisted by the sparkling play of guard Neal Larson andforward Lee Roy Shults. Central regained the lead moments later, but couldn't shake the Big Blue.With the Wildcats in command 43-36 with eight minutes left, the Vikings charged back again. In therally Shults scored two field goals and Clayton three, the last on an unbelievable steal and assist byLarson. The blitz put Western to within one point of Central, 4847, before the Wildcats went into a stallat the 1:15 mark. Central's Paul Adams was fouled with 52 seconds left and hit two clutch free throws to seal the verdict. Mitch Adams led the Wildcats with 20 points, Paul had 11 and guard Dave Allen 16.Vik hoopers edged by Portland State Western's Viking basketball team, failing to make crucial freethrows, lost to Portland State University, 72-71, last Monday night at Portland. The game had everything including a fight between the Vikings' Lee Roy Shults and Portland State's Leon Edmonds. Westernheld a 10-point lead midway through the first half, but saw it whittled to four at halftime, 40-36. GuardMike Clayton, who scored 23 points in the game, put in 15 during the initial half. The second half sawthe lead change hands nine times with the score tied 10 times. Portland State guard Willie Stoudamire, who took game scoring honors with 26 points, scored 17 in the final half, most from long range. Withthe Vikings trailing 69-68 at the 2:29 mark, Shults and Edmonds fought for a rebound beneath thePortland State boards. Edmonds clipped Shults on the ear, drawing blood. The "Golden Bear," upquickly, chased Edmonds across the court. At this point both benches emptied and an estimated 50Portland State fans rushed onto the floor to enter into the melee. When the action finally quieted down,the two main combatants were ejected from the game. Vik JV's rip St. Martin's Western's JV's sweptto their 13th and 14th wins of the season, downing the St. Martin's JV's 104-74 last night in Olympiaafter defeating Edmonds Community College 65-60 here last Saturday. Mike Franza led the JV scoringattack against St. Martin's with 21 points. Roger Fuson led the JV's against Edmonds with 21 points.Mark Roberts added 13. Against Edmonds, the JV's led 29-27 at halftime and kept in the leadthroughout the remainder of the game. Western coach Chuck Randall blamed the fisticuffs on theexceptionally poor officiating which let the game get out of hand. Technical foul shots after the fight stillhad Portland in front 70-69, but a Clayton field goal with 1:29 remaining put Western in the lead for whatwas the final time. No scoring came for another minute as the Vikings missed their third straight one-and-one situation foul shot in the last three minutes. With 31 seconds remaining, guard CharleyStoudamire hit an impossible field goal from 25 feet out to make the final 72-71. The bucket was his firstof the night. The Vikings had a chance after Stoudamire's basket, but a jump shot by Jeff Sherburne hit off the back rim and the subsequent jump ball was controlled by Portland, who ran out the clock. Afterthe game another fight broke out with a Portland player the instigator, but it was quickly squelched.Friday the Vikiitgs led for the first ten minutes of the contest before Central pulled away to a 35-28halftime lead and proceeded to gallop to a 71-58 victory. Paul Adams put in 24 points for the Wildcats,hitting 11 of 16 field goals. He also pulled down 12 rebounds for game honors in that department. OtherCentral scorers in double figures were Allen with 14 and Joe La Duca with 11. John Reed, the leadingfigure in Western's early surge, put in 15 for the contest. Forward Danny Johnson, who scored fivepoints and had seven rebounds, did a fine job for the Vikings in a relief role.

A plan to request state funds for the ramp, which will provide about 370parking stalls, is currently under preparation. If state funds are obtained, the facility could be in operationby late 1974 or 1975. The preliminary drawing was prepared by Ralph D. Anderson and Partners,Architectural Associates. High-rise parking ramp may be built by 1974 by KEN OLSEN Western'sparking and T r a n s p o r t a t i o n Committee recommended that the college request state funds forthe construction of a high-rise parking facility below the Viking Union on Garden Street. "The only waywe could feasibly construct and maintain a parking ramp would be through state funding," Barney Goltz, campus planning head, said last week. Goltz added that the only other alternatives to state fundingwould be an increase in parking rates and combining the new ramp's revenue with revenue from otherlots on campus. All of the parking lots presently on campus are self-sufficient, operating and beingmaintained without the use of state funds. This would not be feasible with a parking ramp because of itsgreat initial cost, according to Goltz. He said that parking ramps will be the only feasible means ofkeeping up with parking problems at Western. "There are simply too many other demands for theavailable college land," he said. Goltz said that the college is currently making plans to request about$1,400,000 from the legislature in 1973 for construction of the ramp. If funds are granted, the facilitycould be in operation sometime in 1974. "It all depends on whether or not the state will grant funds forparking," Goltz said. He added that the state did provide money for the construction of an 800 carparking facility at Evergreen State College in Olympia. Preliminary plans for the ramp call for 370 to 400parking stalls on three or four levels. The top floor would provide 12,300 additional square feet to bereserved for more parking stalls or expansion of student activities facilities. The stairway and elevatorsystems in the Viking Union were constructed as part of a long range plan that included the parkingramp, according to Goltz. Consequently, the ramp could easily be tied in with existing facilities, headded. Access to the parking ramp would be on Pine Street, which comes off Garden Street betweenMathes Hall and the VU. Goltz feels that this would be an ideal location for the new facility because ofits proximity to the VU, Music Auditorium, Old Main, the library and the new music building additioncurrently under construction. "This is the only available l o c a t i o n that would get optimum use bothday and night because of its location in relation to other buildings," Goltz said. He added that it wouldprovide easy access from both north and south and would encourage more people to make use of thecollege facilities. "So many people say that they don't get up to the college very often simply becausethere is no place to park," Goltz said." A new parking ramp would help to alleviate tne problem." Thebookstore; who owns it? by JAMES BATTY Associated Students' and college representatives arguedWednesday over whom the Student Cooperative Bookstore actually belongs toâ€”the college orstudents. Representatives of the college used the All-College Senate's constitution's statements thatthe bookstore committee is responsible to the College Services Council, as their proof that thebookstore belongs to the college. Representatives of the Associated Students said it belonged to them, and that they had a lawyer to prove it. James Hildebrand, chairman of the bookstore board, ruled that"the vote of the students by a margin of two-to-one, authorizing the bookstore to come under the collegesenate l a s t year was a valid a u t h o r i z a t i o n " for college ownership. Craig Cole, AS HousingCommissioner, had a different opinion. "We have contacted our attorney in regard to this constitutionmatter, and his interpretation is that the Council on Student Services can set up a bookstorecommittee," .he said. "There's nothing wrong with that. The only point is that the Associated Studentsare the ones who control the bookstore." The Associated Students, a non-profit corporation whose main financial asset, according to Cole, is the bookstore, has set up a three-man negotiating team composed of Cole, AS Business Manager Rich Hass and AS Legislator Paul King to investigate the matter andreport to the AS Legislature. "It is fine to have the bookstore board report to the senate but it should benoted that at any time the Associated Students, as bookstore owners, may overrule the decisions ofeither the bookstore board or the senate on matters that pertain to the book store," Hass said. "I reallythink that things are in a pretty bad mess," Hildebrand replied, "and I think it's probably going to take acourt case to straighten things out." Cole said, "the burden of the bookstore is on the college, and itwould have to. sue us and win in order to gain any control. So, as far as the status quo goes, we (theAssociated Students) are in control." Loren Webb, chairman of the Faculty Council, cited further pointsin the constitution to show that the bookstore was responsible to the college. The balance of themeeting was spent in revising the proposed bookstore charter, leaving many points blank pending finaldecisions on who does, indeed, control the bookstore. Shakespearean group highlights Multi-Arts Twoperformances by the New Shakespeare Company of San Francisco will highlight the Multi-Arts Festival,which will run from Friday to May 7 at Fairhaven College.

Between 50 and 60persons gathered around the Bellingham City Library fountain at noon Friday to protest the currentbombing raids over North Vietnam. They waited for half an hour f o r a c o n t i n g e n t of demonstrators to march down from Western's campus. While they waited they talked and watched a girl playing withsome dogs on the library lawn. She became the highlight of that night's television report on thedemonstration. When the contingent arrived from Western it proved to be a half dozen people walkingdown the sidewalk because they couldn't get a parade permit. A spokesman announced some plannedanti-war activities, such as the candlelight march and a showing of the film "Hanoi 13" Thursday at 3:30p.m. in the Viking Union Lounge. The group was invited to join in the weekly, Friday afternoondemonstration at the Federal Building. Finally, two people made short speeches against the bombing,the longer speech ran two minutes. Friday night about 70 people took part in a candlelight marchwinding from the Ridge way parking lot down to Red Square where a prayer was offered and speecheswere made. One participant summed up the day's activities and attitudes when he said, "It wasn't the old group of standbys. It was a new group of young people." A pleasant time was had by all as about 50persons basked leisurely in the sun behind the city library Friday morning to protest the bombing inVietnam. M , Â» . â€ž ,, 8 Phdto by Jim Thomson ---------- Western Front - 1972 April 25 - Page 2 ---------- Western Front Tuesday,AprU 25, 1972 Letters: On the home front by Steve Johnston Who was thatmasked nan? We pretended not to notice the man, even though he was wearing a long red cape, a hood perched on his head with little pointed ears sticking up and had a long red tail. He had first sat down atthe end of our coffee table and casually draped his tail over his right shoulder. The pointed end dippedinto his coffee every time he took a sip. "Say, isn't that Jerry Flora, the President of Western?" the NewStudent asked. "Shhh, you're not supposed to notice him," Irving Bingo said. "It's a game he plays withthe students." "I don't think I understand," the New Student said. Irving reached over and pulled the NewStudent close to him. "Lookit, dummy, every few days Flora feels he is losing contact with the students,so he puts on various disguises and comes down from Olympus to the coffee shop to rap with thestudents." "Rap?" "That's his word, not mine," Irving said. "But does he always dress up like a devil?"the New Student asked. "Nah, last week he came down dressed like an oil baron. You know, completewith a ten gallon hat and cowboy boots. He got into an argument with Harvey over there"-Harvey noddedhis head in agreement-"over pollution and oil drilling. Then he went over to bug a couple of Huxleystudents." "Yeah, and a couple of weeks ago he came in wearing a pair of sunglasses with one of thosebig fake noses attached," Harvey said, casting sidelong glances down at the devil. "He even had a plastic mustache on it and was wearing a fright wig. Just like Halloween." "But why does he do things like this?" the New Student asked, somewhat frightened at the idea of a college president running around in adevil's costume or a fright wig. "Oh, he's harmless enough. Anyway it gives him something to do," Irvingassured the youth. "Flora calls it his 'Intellectual Exercise' or something like that. "Anyway," Irvingcontinued, "at the end of the conversation or when he's getting beat in an argument, he always stands upand says in a deep voice, 'Do you students know who I am?' Naturally, we always say we don't. So heripsoopen his shirt and he has this tattoo across his chest that says, MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, IAM THE PRESIDENT!! Then he runs away. Really weird." "Yes, that is strange," the New Student said."What do you suppose he is playing this week?" "It should be obvious," Irving said. "The devil's advocate, of course." By now the devil had finished his coffee and set the cup down with a bang to gain attention."I couldn't help but overhear your conversation on the war in Vietnam," the devil said, nonchalantly twirlinghis tail over his head. "But we weren't . . . ." the New Student said. Irving gave him a sharp poke in thechest and whispered, "Play along with him." Turning back to the devil, Irving said, "That's right, stranger,we were just saying how the war was immoral, illegal and the usual left wing garbage. Don't you agree?"Not on your life, student," the devil said. Pushing his crow! out of his face, the devil continued, "I think the war is good for the Gross National Product." "How so, stranger?" "Consider all those bullets we areusing and the bombs and napalm, plus the effective way it is cutting down on the population," the devilsaid. "No argument there, stranger." The crafty smile dissolved from the devil's face. Almost on the brinkof tears, the devil said, "Hey, come on, you guys. How can I get my weekly intellectual exercise if youguys don't play along with me. "I don't understand, stranger," Irving said. "Ohh, for crissakes, Bingo,come off it!" the devil shouted. "You know who I am." He stood up and started to rip off his shirt. "Okay,Jerry we know who you are, so save the bare-chested theatrics for the new students," Irving told him. "Ihaven't seen it yet; let me see, let me see," the New Student squealed. With violent modesty, the devilripped off his shirt and revealed his MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT, I AM THE PRESIDENT!! tattoo. Then laughing insanelv,he disappeared into the crowd. Irving breathed a sigh of relief and offered to treat thetable. "I'm glad that's over for another week," he said. "I just didn't feel like exercising my brain today."But as we walked around the corner to our table, Irving stopped short. His face turned pale and severalfoul words escaped from his mouth. Sitting at our table was a masked marbchewing.on a.silver bullet.Editor's note: Letters to the editor will be printed according to space available.

No monopoly oi racismEditor, Western Front; In answer to "White America Crumbling"-I am aware of the hypocrisies ofAmerican society and I am aware of the record of racism in this country. This country has a bad recordof treatment of Indians, Puerto Ricans, Chicanos, Irish, Blacks, Jews and Polish, to name a few. I amalso aware of the author's abysmal ignorance of history or "his choice not to remember it. In yourignorance, you are probably not aware that the Chinese who came to America to work the railroads andmines in many cases were sold to the land brokers by their own families. As for the Japanese, who forthe most part were educated and came here on their own, why did they leave Japan and bring theirfamilies with them? The darkest page in American law history was the internment of the Japanese inAmerican concentration camps. How many . people were interned in Japanese concentration campsduring World War II and lived? The Atomic bombs dropped by White racists on Japan in 1945 ended the bombing of y o u r Chinese, Burmese, Vietnamese, "Filipino" and many other Asian "brothers" after 10years of one of the most brutal military conquests in modern history. China did not invade Japan in 1936! Where do the minorities of Japan live; the Koreans and Chinese brought there as laborers during manyconquests? The children of Black Americans and Japanese women, where are they? Ask Pearl S. Buck. Where did you witness the imprisonmnent of your "Black brothers and sisters" in ghettoes from? Fromyour suburban split-level, no doubt. The Japanese are one of the most affluent minority groups in theU.S., more so than the average white. In you list of crumbling empires, you forgot to list the JapaneseEmpire. The White man has no monopoly on racism or hypocrisy. Eric de Mille Library searchHRCORStitUtiOHOl Editor, Western Front, For those of you who have been wondering, it is official now, we do not have to submit to having our effects searched when we leave Wilson Library. The question ofillegal search was resolved last week when I was finally confronted for refusing to open my pack;something I had been refusing to do since I came to Western in the Winter of 1971. The confrontationcame when I was asked to step aside and wait for a library official to. settle the matter. I waited and theofficial came to inform me that "I must open my pack." I asked the official if I was being accused ofsomething? Of course, I was not, it was only a rule. I still said NO! At this point it became necessary for a higher legal opinion. I was again asked to wait, while a phone call was placed to Dean Taylor. Hisassessment of the situation was that, "it was doubtful they could force me to submit." That, fellowpatrons, is the first time I had heard Amendment IV to the U.S. Constitution referred to as DOUBTFUL.Amendment IV reads: "Security from Unwarrantable Search and Seizure. The right of the people to besecure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, -but upon probable cause, supported by oatn oraffirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to beseized." At this point I was allowed to leave without opening my pack, which I will continue refusing todo. Of course this incident caused some commotion in the lobby of the library. I am sure somestudents viewed my actions as those of a malcontent, while others could care less. It is mostly for those students and the library that this open Letter is directed. The issue here, as I see it, goes deeper thanjust an infringement upon my civil liberties. In fact it centers around the question, how does aninstitution like Wilson Library, solve a problem like students ripping off books? Apparently, although Ihave not seen the evidence, this is a very real problem for library officials. I fully understand that they are charged with protecting the most valuable property at Western I can also appreciate their concern. H ow e v e r , I cannot understand the fallacy in their simplification of a solution. Especially when thatsolution involves the violation of the U.S. Constitution, and is based upon the assumption, that byillegally searching students, they will uncover stolen books. If a student is intent on stealing a book, nosearch at the door is going to stop him. I would assume that by searching students, there will be timeswhen books are detected which have not been checked out, through carelessness or some other non-criminal mistake. I confess, I do not know how to solve this problem. I do know that no matter howmany times these kinds of mistakes happen in the daily routine of the library, it is still no justification forviolating the protection of Amendment IV. I would suggest to the library officials that they search for a l t e r n a t i v e s , rather than searching students. If there is a problem at the library, both librarians andstudents should face it for what it is, and try to solve it together. As I have stated, I do not know what the answer is, I only know what the answer is not. David E. Swenson College of Ethnic Studies Awareness week weak at Western Editor, Western Front; We view the "Awareness Week" at Western with somedegree of shock. Does no one see the irony here? Classes continue as usual, and are not even centered around the events and issues at hand. What possible awareness can this bring? Why aren't classessuspended, with attendance of the workshops, etc., being the assignment? It appears to us that there is no actual faculty or administrative endorsement of these important events . . . a fact we find mostunbecoming to a college community. It is as if the administration were saying, "Go ahead and scheduleyour Awareness Week, but we, in turn, will continue with our routine to assure to no realaccomplishment on your part." Why is a supposedly liberal institution, supported by public funds and intheory dedicated to "higher education," allowed to toy with people's lives this way? The issues raisedduring each one of these weeks are real issues, not something to be merely mocked by ignorance andapathy. Here is finally presented the chance for Western students to face more relevant issues thanbookstore policies and whether dogs should be allowed on campus, but since class attendance andexams are required activities during this, of all times, who will have the chance to become aware? We b e l i e v e most administrators and faculty members at Western also need the benefit of these fewweeks of "awareness," and find the fact that Western is polluted with an untra-racist atmosphere nosmall surprise after seeing how such activities are handled here. Steve Diddy Junior/Political Science ---------- Western Front - 1972 April 25 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, April 25, 1972 Western Frdntv 3 Letter writer clarifies position Editor, Western Front; Yourissue of April 18 contained a letter which I feel must be answered in order to clarify my positions.Flintoff, the author of a somewhat rhetorical letter but not without a certain amount of verbal diarrhea andfalsehood, has taken exception to my philosophy of General Studies 321. The falsehoods, being thefault of the Front's typewriter or the unobservance of Flintoff, is the spelling of my name. For the benefitof those misguided people it is spelled MacMillan not McMillan and MacMilland. With the introductionsout of the way, I intend to get on with the promised clarifications. F i r s t l y , I did not say anythingabout a "waste of time" as Flintoff apparently has quoted me. Secondly, I am aware when educationstarts and I think this is perfectly clear if one were to consult my letter of April 4. My thoughts wereaimed in a context of cutting the number of years from four to three. Based upon my survey andpersonal opinion, I was forced to arrive at the conclusion that General Studies 321 was "a fine exampleof another subject of questionable relevance to most people." I stress most, and I feel this to be theopinion of most students of General Studies 321, not all. Finally, I would caution Flintoff in his referral ofmy interests as being prosaic. I submit my accounting is no more prosaic than his German classics.Having read my letter and its referral to the well-rounded education in high school and my thoughts ofeliminating this requirement in college I am all for the providing of essential knowledge for one's vocation. The preference of c o l l e g e before gainfull employment is dedicated to the pursuit of a larger paycheck. In conclusion, Mr. Flintoff, I would like to enlighten you on my education and empiricalknowledge of the world. I have attended one college in California, Everett Community C o l l e g e , U n iv e r s i t y of Washington and Western, on the college level. I also spent five years at two privateboarding schools in Canada. I have also been to England and several foreign countries including one ofCommunist ideology. D. A. MacMillan Junior/Accounting Attacking whites doesn't help nan Editor,Western Front; The recent, rabid attack on White America by Phil Imahara announces an annual ritualat Western, namely the "hate the white devils, for they alone are the cause for all of mankind's ills"attitude. In the fragmentary outline below, the evidence will prove that, historically speaking, the Whitesare not alone in the human jungle : A. The brutal massacres and widespread devastation and theresulting decline of the Kievian, Indian and Islamic empires by the Mongol invasions of the 13th century. B. The Yvan Dynasty of China and its imperialist policies a g a i n s t Vietnam, Japan, Cambodia andIndonesia. C. The Bataan death march and the premeditated murder of Black, White and FilipinoAmerican troops. D. The extensive slave trade carried on by T'ang Dynasty merchants in China'. E. Theexecutions of shipwrecked seamen in Japan before the arrival of Admiral Perry in 1854. If these factsappear to be muck-raking to Mr. Imahara, then may I suggest the following viewpoint. We can alwaysbecome as ugly as we want to make each other appear. The White "pig" is not alone in the race tofurther, or lessen, the human condition of misery. Attacking the White race alone will hardly accomplishanything, o n l y through a mutual understanding can mankind ever hope to alleviate its torments!

The AAUP isplanning to take the question of collective bargaining under study at the national conference the firstweekend of May, Richard Francis, English professor and president of the local AAUP chapter, said. Hesaid his one concern about forming collective bargaining organizations was who would look after theteachers' interests and what say were the professors to have in such an organization. RaymondMcLeod, local president of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) a n d physics departmentchairman, said the AFT could enlist the support of other colleges and labor unions when it came todiscussing salaries with the administration.

G e e , speaking hereWednesday in connection with Asian Awareness Week, spoke on the early Japanese immigrant women in the United States. The Issei women (first generation Japanese) were rare in the United States whenthe Japanese first began immigration to this country. The women who came were mainly prostitutes,comprising the first significant numbers of Japanese women, Gee said. Once an agreement wasreached (the bridegroom also received a picture of his future bride), a wedding ceremony was held inJapan, with a proxy standing in for the groom. The ACADEMY AWARD WINNING Picture And StarpiTOflMiiii'itiii-rmiriniraafo1 wife's name was entered into her husband's family registry. Six months later,she could apply for a passport to the United States. Americans condemned the picture bride practiceas immoral and non-Christian, Gee said, proclaiming that the Japanese would "breed like rats" andbecome unincorporated. Once in America, the new bride faced a prospectus of new and bewilderingactivities. Her husband would immediately exchange her Japanese kimono for "Western clothes," asthere was a myth in the Japanese community that the Chinese were rejected as unconformists in thiscountry because they wore traditional clothing, she said. The bride had to face physical exam that wasoften degrading, Gee said, and the fear of deportation was present. Picture bride marriages were notrecognized as legal by the United States government, so the brides and bridegrooms, armed with photos of each other, had to go through a mass ceremony, conducted by a minister, she said. The Isseiwomen, in a strange and often uncomfortable land, worked long hours alongside their husbands andshouldered most of the housework and child-rearing burden, she said. Gee urged Asian students, intheir move towards greater recognition and awareness, not Gene Hackman FRENCH CONNECTIONCompanion Feature 'VANISHING POINT' Friday's Showtimes FRENCH CONNECTION 6:30 and 10:00 \ VANISHING POINT 8 20 Saturday ' POINT: 4:30,8:10 FRENCH: 6:10, 10p.m. ISunday (FRENCH 2:15-5:50-9:30 [POINT 4:05 7:50 , iMon.

"They were truly remarkable women. They had thephysical stamina and moral courage to persist and survive," she said. Around the turn of the century,Japanese women began coming to the U.S. until they were curtailed by the Japanese government at therequest of the United States in 1920. An immigration law in 1924 prohibited the Japanese from enteringthis country, Gee said. Japanese men, wanting to marry, could either return to Japan and quickly marry (quickly to return to the United States before the draft captured them) or marry a woman already in thiscountry. Both solutions, Gee said, were rare. There weren't that many women in this country and menwho wished to return to Japan needed money. Picture brides were the answer. Since the family ofprospective newlyweds plays an important role in mate selection in Japan, young Japanese men senttheir pictures to their f a m i l y , who, with an i n t e r m e d i a r y , selected an appropriate mate,keeping in mind such criteria as social class, similarity of origins and common friends, she said.

Last Thursday's four-member "Price and Shame" panel attacked the Asian Americanstereotype and told about oppression and subtle racism towards Asians existing in the U.S. As anexample, University of Washington student Guy Kurose pointed out the racism in a hair spraycommercial on television. This commercial shows a ping-pong match between an Asian and a White,with the Asian winning the game while the White wins the Asian girl. This reveals that "Asians will beallowed to win ping-pong matches, but when it comes to male/female relationship, they are denied this/'Joe Okimato, from the UW school of Public Health, said. "One thing attributed to Asians is that theyalways succeed in the school system, but that does not mean anything outside of high school,"Kinoshita said. A study done at the UW showed that Asians have an average of two more yearseducation than Whites, but less income. "We are unable to utilize the education we have," Okimatosaid. There is a systematic reason why education is look at according to Louise Swanson, acommunity liaison worker from Franklin High School in Seattle, said. Until recently, very few Asianshave gone into fine a r t s , s h e s a i d. Most Asfans have become engineers or scientists. "When youlook around and you see someone (Asian) making it, it is because the system says he is going in theright d i r e c t i o n , ' ' Swanson emphasized. "Asians today are not passive or submissive, and peopleare having a hard time figuring this out," Kurose said. Asians in the past have been looked upon bywhites as a model to other minorities. "Asians don't complain, so why are you Blacks acting like . . . ."Kurose said. "A lot of Asian youths are going to college to bring back knowledge and work outinjustices brought upon by the White community," Kurose said. Kinoshita, a Fairhaven student, talkingabout racism on campus said, "I don't see it a lot. It's the kind of racism that is hard to see."

"It's a kind of thing like Representative Bella Abzug fromNew York is doing. Listening to the people. In some ways it lets off a lot of pent up frustration." Knedlikalso believes it will held improve the quality of laws passed by the state legislature. "We have very littleresearch going into our legislation. "It's no accident that it took our legislators 50 years to pass a bill onhitchhiking and then they only passed it because they didn't want to focus on the more importantissues. "We should have had fact available to these legislators to focus their attention on the issues."They need raw data to show that some areas of government are getting 25 complaints a year and otherareas are getting 25,000 complaints.

Albertson's carriesboth union and non-union lettuce. Picketers estimated that they succeeded in turning away about 100persons in the two hours they were there. Gary Dickerson, manager of "the friendliest store in town," said he is indifferent about the issue and will sell whatever lettuce is available to him. Picketers said theywould continue to leaflet outside Bellingham food stores that carry non-unionlettuce, citing Albertson'sand Ennen's Thriftway as their primary targets. See story on page 7.

The first and meatiest of theagenda items was a revised guide to student rights and responsibilities on campus, which was finallyadopted after a 75-minute conflict of views between student representatives and college administrators.The board made one change in the document, rewording and strengthening the policy statementconcerning drugs. Other action included: -Kenneth D. Freeman was named as dean of Fairhavenreplacing Acting Dean Harvey Gelder, effective Aug. 1. Freeman, 36, is currently dean of BensalemExperimental College, a cluster college of Fordham University, New York. â€”Renaming of WesternCollege, a cluster college on campus, the College of Arts and Sciences. Flora also suggested thischange, since it had often become confused with Western as a whole. â€”Plans to dedicate a portion ofSehome Hill for an arboretum. â€” R e j e c t i o n of bids for the new Auditorium-Music building, asrecommended by Campus Planner Barney Goltz. He said all bids have been in excess of availablemonies. â€”Official acceptance of the Campus Way bypass project from contractors, and transfer of theproject to the city. Total costs came to $310,451 for the college and $36,002 for the city. â€”Approval of a change of room and board rates for residence and dining halls in an attempt to attract more students. An emphasis was put on long-term contracts and future experiments by Housing and Dining to findsolutions to make dorm and apartment living more inviting. -Naming of the Housing '71 project at CollegeParkway and South College Drive. The name, Buchanan Towers, was suggested by President CharlesFlora in honor of Sam Buchanan, former college business manager. Approved Conduct Code Protects'Student Rights Following a 75-minute debate between students and administration officials, the Board of Trustees Thursday adopted the new student code of conduct and responsibilities. Speaking in opposition to the new document, Mary Watts, speaker of the AS Legislature, said that many students do notbelieve there should be a duplication of civil law on campus. "We've got a real world out there andstudents have to learn to live with it," she said. Speaking for the legislature, Miss Watts said that manystudents believe they are immune to civil authority and only have to go to the campus judiciary if theyviolate the law. AS Business Manager Rich Hass said that there should be no separation between thecampus and the community. "The penalty for violation (of the drug laws) should be uniform under statelaw," he said. Dean of Students C. W. McDonald said that the code "is always subject to revision."McDonald said that the document is supposed to be informative rather than a set of rules. "It has beenreviewed by the state attorney general's office and approved as a legal, enforceable document," he said."I don't think it will affect most of the students at all," he said. "Most students don't violate the code."According to McDonald, the new code guarantees due process in all cases handled by the All-StudentIntermediate Judiciary Board. In answer to statements that civil law should be used on campus,McDonald said the Bellingham Police Department does not have the man-power to enforce allmisdemeanors and that the campus judiciaries could handle the cases just as well. "We can do moregood for the students and they don't get a police record," he said. "If a case is a felony, however, it will be handled by the police. The code, which will be included in the Navigator next fall, is meant to be aguideline for incoming students, Ritajean Butterworth, a trustee from Seattle, said. Housing PricesRaised for Quarterly Contracts Room and board will increase next year for dorm residents who don't stay in the dorms all year, Gerald Brock, director of housing, said. Students can take a full nine-monthcontract or a quarter contract that will cost more over a year he explained. The quarter contract will cost$470 for fall quarter, $365 for winter and $200 for spring and summer. The increase will be $135 morethan the $900 charged for the full-year contract, Brock said. Apartment contracts can be taken out for 12 months, nine months or a quarter, he said. Furnished apartments with utilities will cost $51.60 perstudent per month for the 12 month contract, $55 per student per month for the nine month contract and$67 per student per month for spring and summer, This is in comparison to this year's $50 per month perstudent for only a quarter contract. Next year students will still be able to get rooms without board atFairhaven, Brock said. Single rooms will cost $35 more compared to the $25 extra charged this year, headded. Brock said he foresees increases in housing expenses unless inflation changes â€¢ or there is a definite freeze on salaries. Though applications for housing have been slow, Brock thinks that they willbe close to this year's. City to Rezone College Area The future of Western's expansion program waspartially shot down last week when the Bellingham City Council voted to grant a request for high-densityrezoning in the college area. By voting-to rezone the land, the "city has forced the college to adopt a size that it was not planning on," Harold Goltz, campus planner, said. Goltz said it appears the city council is going against the best interests of the college by voting for the rezoning. The land in question is part ofa 51 acre acquisition, located on Parkway between 21st to 24th streets, which the college was planningto buy in 1973 as part of its expansion program. But the new zoning, which permits high-rise apartments to be built, will put the land's cost above what was planned in the budget. The college had planned tobuild housing for married students on the land. The city and the college have been working closetogether on land development in the past, Goltz said, but now he thinks* "there is an anti-college feelingon the council." "From 1966 through 1969 we have developed a comprehensive land-use plan with thecity," Goltz said. "We have jointly planned for streets, sewers and electrical utilities." He said thecollege has already made a promise to surrounding land owners to buy their property in 1973. Plans have already started in getting the land ready for development. "I don't know how much money it has cost sofar," Goltz said, "but there has been a lot of time spent in working out the plans and in meetings." ---------- Western Front - 1971 May 11 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, May 11, 1971 Western Front 3 Council to Consider Grading Proposals By PAT BRENNENFront Reporter These three proposals and the present grading system will be discussed at theAcademic Council meeting at 4 p.m. today in College Hall 131. Three new proposed grading systemswill be discussed by the Academic Council at its meeting this afternoon. The three new proposals include one from the Academic Council's Ad-hoc Committee on Grading and two from individual facultymembers. The Ad-hoc Committee on Grading's proposal calls for replacing the present grading systemswith theJ following grading system: C - Credit; for the satisfactory completion of a course of instruction or designated unit of study and performance. CD-Credit with distinction; for recognition of outstandingwork that exceeds all usual standards of performance. . N C - N o Credit, for the unsatisfactorycompletion of a course of instruction or for withdrawal in cases of i l l n e s s or other extenuatingcircumstances. Kâ€”Incomplete, for an extention of time necessary to complete a course when the work of the student is deemed satisfactory by the instructor at the time the course is normally completed.The new grading proposal is the result of efforts by the Grading Committee to correct problems that have arisen from the present grading system. Among problems the committee discussed were: -Thereliability of grades in all contexts, -Ways to eliminate the aura of grades as a tangible reward (orpunishment) -Ways to eliminate anxiety about consequences of grades Editor's Note: The DaugertProposal for an all-college government has been passed by all college constituencies and only awaitsapproval by the Board of Trustees to start going into effect. This article is the first in a series exploringhow the Daugert Proposal will affect the present parts of college government. It deals with the change-over of student government. "There will be some chaos involved in the change-over," AS President-electTod Sundquist told the Front Friday. The present executive structure of AS government would be prettyâ€” T h e s e p a r a t i o n of the evaluation-feedback function from their life-long recorded and reportorialfunctions. The committee also found that another major problem exists at Western. They believe thatthe dual system of grading used here, pass/fail and A-F grading, is self-defeating since students do notelect an optional system like pass/fail for the purposes originally intended and do not do as well underthe optional system. The committee thinks that its single grading system will define reliable distinctions, eliminate the aura of grades as reward and punishment (particularly of failure) and eliminate excessiveanxiety about the consequences of grades. The second proposal is from Dean of Western FredKnapman. Knapman, speaking as professor of chemistry, stated in his proposal: " I n recent years wehave experimented with two grading systems, ABCDF and pass/fail. We have placed various restrictions on which courses students may use for pass/fail and we have required them to make the choice ofsystems at the time of registration." Knapman said the result has frequently been chaos, frustration andanger for students, faculty and the registrar's office. "Much can be said about the validity of gradingsystems-their values, shortcomings and potential for harm," Knapman said. "I choose to make thefollowing assumptions: â€”An evaluation should be made of the student's performance for each coursehe takes at Western College of Arts and Sciences. -The responsibility for making the evaluation lies with the instructor of the course. - T h e r e should be only one adaptive to the Daugert Proposal, he said."The AS president's role might be as caucus leader," he said. Student membership will mainly be fromthe various academic departments with four at-large positions. This would form the student caucus.While the president could represent or lead the student caucus, other members of the studentadministration could tie in at the different committee levels, Sundquist said. Probably during the fallelection there could be a referendum on the e v a l u a t i o n system for all courses â€”generaleducation, major, minor and electives. â€”The primary decision an instructor must make is whether ornot a student has reached a passing level of performance. â€”If the instructor decides that a student has reached a passing level of performance, the instructor may be able to distinguish among several passing levels. Knapman feels that to accomplish the above, the following single grading system should beused: A Performance with high distinction B Performance with distinction Pass(P) Acceptableperformance No Pass (NP) Unacceptable performance W Withdrawn from the course K Incompletion ofacceptable performance Knapman's proposal also states that "Pass" is preferred to "C" since it hasbroader implications. It includes both "C" and "satisfactory," and that "No Pass" is preferred to " F "since it has broader implications and does not produce the emotional reaction of " F ." "I think the maindifference between my proposal and the Committee on Grading's is that I call for three levels of passing,while they call for only two levels," Knapman said. He also said that he is making a survey of all thedepartments to see which proposal they favor. He will present the results at today's meeting. The thirdproposal was submitted by David Ziegler, assistant professor of political science. Ziegler said that heagrees with the Grading Committee that there should be an interval grading system. He believes life isnot a series of blacks and whites, but of shades of grey. "When I read professional journal permissibilityof the AS president serving as a student caucus chairman, while the four at-large student members forthe Academic Senate would likely be elected at the same time, he said. "A lot of these things will be leftup to the voters," he added. AS Legislature would pass out of existence under the Daugert Proposal,but their function would be taken over by the student representation on the Senate bodies, he said.â€¢When AS President Steve Cooper was contacted Friday he said that the AS president should be amember of the articles, I do not say 'Credit' or 'No Credit,' but 'a good article,' 'an excellent article,' 'amediocre article,' etc.," he said. Ziegler said this applies to students' work also. He proposes as analternative to the Grading Committee's proposal the following system with nine levels of passing work:A+ A A-B+ B B-C+ c c- D = = = = = = = = = = 4.33 4.00 3.67 3.33 3.00 2.67 2.33 2.001.67 1.00 F = 0.00 or instead of " F " call it no credit or NO ENTRY or anything else. He makes thefollowing statements about this system in his proposal: â€”This system is fairer to the student who isalmost-but-not-quite at the next highest level or interval. Under the Grading Committee's proposals, a lotof good students would be lumped with a lot of bad students under "Credit." â€”This system will reducethe excessive number of "A" grades now given under the existing system. â€”The system will, make itpossible for a student with a few "B's" to still get an "A" average. â€”This system will correct thestatistical anomaly of a grade point iaverage of two decimal places when the inputs are only in wholenumbers. "To those who claim, T can't make distinctions that fine,' I reply, 'You are failing in yourobligations to your students,' " Ziegler said. "The ability to make distinctions is at the heart ofintellectural activity. If an instructor feels that he can say that students are different from each other butnot necessarily better than each other, he can give them all "C's." Senate and speak as chairman of thestudents. "It's important that you have a unified voice in the Senate" Cooper said. The Senate won't gointo full operation next fall, he said, but will develop piece-meal. "It will probably take at least a year toget this thing going," he said. The decisions on plugging present student government into the DaugertProposal will be the problem of Sundquist and Vice-president-elect Larry Diamond, Cooper said.

" To comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted" The Curriculum, 1899-1984? A faculty-led majority has successfully torpedoed theCurriculum Commission's controversial plan to restructure the college, and in doing so has confirmed along-standing premise of a number of concerned students: there will be no slaughtering of sacreddepartmental cows on this campus in the name of progress. E v i d e n t l y a n u m b e r offacultyâ€”motivated by the inertia of traditionâ€”fear being splattered by a little blood. The CurriculumCommission plan, though it needed major revision, did not differ substantially from the curricular planbeing groomed for the new Evergreen State College in Olympia. For a change, it will be interesting towatch a new faculty develop around a curriculum, instead of a new Daugert Proposal curriculum developaround a faculty. President Flora has resigned himself to salvaging the few pieces of the curriculum planwhich survived the panic after the report's public presentation. But, even collectively, those acceptableremains of the plan will not suffice to pull this college from its third rate position in higher education.This college will remain hopelessly bogged down in 50 years of departmental tradition if only the seniorfaculty continue to selfishly dictate the true course of this institution. It is this tradition in which much ofthe curriculum of today was spawned and continues to thrive. And let's hear it for the curriculum. â€”John Stolpe While the Curriculum Commission plan to reorganize the academic aspect ot the college lies inruin, we are heartened to report the successful adoption of the Daugert Proposal to reorganize thecampus governance. After many long months of hard work by a diligent band of faculty, administratorsand students, the proposalâ€”despite its few inequitiesâ€”will be a working reality this fall. That alone is a tribute to those dedicated to a progressive campus government, where the various constituencies canwork closer together to solve our community's complex problems. We invite our readers to analyze theDaugert proposal's affect upon the community in our special series which begins on page 3 of today'sissue. â€”John Stolpe EDITOR: John Stolpe MANAGING EDITOR: Ron Graham ASSOCIATE EDITOR:Bob Taylor COPY EDITOR: Jim Austin ASSISTANT COPY EDITOR: Larry Lemon SPORTS EDITOR:Kent Sherwood PHOTO EDITOR: Dave Sherman ASSOCIATE PHOTO EDITOR: Loren Bliss STAFFREPORTERS Sigma Delta Chi's First Place 4Year College Newspaper GENERAL ASSIGNMENT: GlenJones, Jim Thomson, Pat Brennen, Mike Kerr, Rick Ries, Marilee Pethtel, Dianne Jacobs.ADMINISTRATION: Jim Austin, Mary Peebles, Scott Anderson.

Fashioned after the old College Bowl, the students are askedquestions about early television and radio shows. A ' MPLING OF the questions asked include: What was the themv jong of the Roy Rogers Show? Or what was the name of the jeep Pat used to drive on thatshow? The questions get harder, like name all those irresistible rascals on the Mickey Mouse Club. Whowas the first M.C. on theoriginal Amateur Hour?

He says The SDS had a motto of "Build, Not- Burn"when it first started, but later changed it to "Build Not, Burn." PROTESTORS TRIED TO shut downWashington, D.C. last week, but the job proved too much for them. A gentleman named Allen Woodeoffered a way to shut down the Pentagon some time back. He felt it was best just to attack one thing at atime. His idea just took seven beaten up cars. They would block the seven major exits. Not one to foolaround, Woode said to set the cars on fire before beating a hasty retreat. He also suggested having amass call-in on the Pentagon to tie up all its phones. Really don't know if he succeeded in getting hisproject off the ground, have not heard from him since 1968. But his idea seems a lot sounder and saferthan standing in front of some early morning commuter. Fall Registration Fall quarter advanceregistration will begin May 17 according to Registrar William O'Neil. Procedure will be as usual except for payment of a $50 non-refundable advance payment fee. Returning students registering for fall quarter willbe required to pay the fee by July 15. If the student goes ahead and attends fall quarter the fee isdeducted from his tuition payment; if not', however, he is out the $50. O'Neil said the new procedure isparallel to that for entering students and is designed to let the register's office know exactly how manystudents have enrolled for fall quarter. All the colleges in the state are doing the same thing, he added.Advance registration appointments will be going out this week. Students should keep their local collegeaddresses current with the registrar's office. All address changes should go through Old Main 113.Preliminary class schedules for 71-72 will be available about May 12. Final schedules will be availableSept. 1. O'Neil reminded students who do not advance register that they will have to go throughreadmission in order to attend Western fall quarter. Environment Meeting A permit for the proposedARCO outfall for effluent wastes and the introduction of supertankers are two contested items that will bediscussed at a meeting held at 7 p.m. Wednesday in the Viking Union Coffee Den. The meeting hasbeen called by the "Save Our Sound" group of fishermen and is open to all interested persons. The ASexecutive branch is sponsoring the effort of the fishermen to bring together persons who may want topetition or write letters in attempts to block the ARCO outfall and the supertankers' use of Puget Soundwaters. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has yet to grant ARCO a dump permit, and therecent oil spill near Guemes Island has pointed to the problems an oil spill in the Sound area could cause, according to Ed Wickersham, a Western student majoring in biology. Wickersham made some of thearrangements for the Wednesday night meeting and urges that persons attend the meeting to becomeinformed on the problems and take constructive action. ---------- Western Front - 1971 May 11 - Page 5 ---------- Letters from our readers Tuesday, May 11, 1971 Western Front Peace Movement a Real Bear Trap Why Just Peace Marches? A lot of time, energy and anger is spent organizing marches and demonstrations. I find myself questioning the e x a c t n e s s of p e o p l e 's accusations. Is it all the government'sfault? Do not we, the people, fit in some place? How many people use their voting power to influencecity, state and national government, or do we rather sit in the security of our living rooms and watch TVor go to a kegger? What percentage of the people that vote do so with factual knowledge of what theyare voting for? Do we make government our business? When was the last time you took a few hours toresearch a political figure's actions on legislation or policy? Why aren't we sharing with the poor sothere wouldn't be any need for welfare and "creeping socialism?" What about all those kegs ofbeerâ€”how many starving children could be fed and clothed with that money? What about the time andmoney spent on drugsâ€”couldn't that money be spent on helping to support the old that are onmedicare? If people really cared, wouldn't we educate each other to the harmful pollutant effects of theevery-day products we use? I was shook up the other day when I read a note on the checkstand in thebookstore explaining how many trees went or go into pulp for paper bags. The note then asked if "youreally needed a paper bag." Don't we reason? Isn't that the difference between man and animal? Whyaren't there marches to collect paper for recycling all over Bellingham? Why about going to city councilmeetings, as far out as that may sound, to stop the college and city sewage from being dumped intoBellingham Bay? I think people should take a closer look at themselves and quit blaming other thingsfor our problems. Robin Probst Journalism WATCI Thanks Students Editor: I want to take thisopportunity to thank all the students who took part in the Whatcom Association of Training Centers, Inc.(WATCI) Auxiliary's bake sales. We had seven bake sales at the Viking Union and we made a total of$500 on these sales. All the girls who worked on these sales had a real good time meeting the collegestudents. We just wanted to let you know that we appreciated your patronage. We also appreciated allthe help from the students who helped us lug our bake goods up the stairs, and to all those who openeddoors for us. We hope to have these sales again next fall so please look for us. "Thursday's child has far to go," but you have helped WATCI (schools for the mentally retarded) make their road a little shorter.Thank you again. Lorraine Ryan Secretary, WATCI Auxiliary Editor, I've been thinking about the group, of people who strive to make us on campus so interested in peace in Vietnam, (which we are, surely).They go around making the "V" sign and claim great sorrow for those dying in the Vietnam war, a warthe United States didn't start and from which it doesn't plan to get any territory for itself. Who isresponsible for these circumstances? Demonstrate against them! This same agitating group shows noconcern for the people who are killed every year in our country because of drunken drivers, and thisnumber is much larger than those killed every year in Vietnam. This group also shows no concern for all those who die every year in New York City as a result of overdoses of drugs. This number is muchgreater than those killed in the Vietnam War during the same period. I remember an Asiatic country awhile back that tried to get all the people in the country it wanted to take over to 'start using opium sothey could be taken over more easily. Is there a parallel here? Neither does this group show anyconcern for the lives taken by abortion every year. This number also, is larger than those killed during the year in Vietnam. This group says that what is his is his, and what's mine and yours is his also. Cleverpropaganda and stating part of the facts touches our hearts and calls to our sympathies. Learn to lookunder the surface to see if there's a trap underneath. Don't end up caught in a real bear trap! W. R.Dunn Explains Power Mechanics Editor, It is my understanding that a recent issue of the WesternFront carried a letter to the editor concerning the power mechanics laboratory of the TechnologyDepartment. This writer implied that the lab was being used for automotive repairs. This is not true inany way and I would like to clear this matter up. Power mechanics as we in the Technology Departmentview it is the study of the development, utilization and control of power in all forms. This can take theform of wind power, water power, heat engine power or direct energy conversion. Since automotive power is a prime example of modern heat engine technology and autos are readily available they are used inour program. However, all power plants are either owned by the school or supplied by the s t u d e n thimself. Any experiences he may have with an automotive power plant is as a learning experience andnot a "repair service" approach. We see our role as training teachers of power mechanics for juniorsenior high schools, and training bachelor of science graduates for management p o s i t i o n s in thepower technology industry. Our curriculum is based on concept development and familiarization withpast and present practices in the field of power technology. Our students are in no way expected todevelop those manipulative skills commonly associated with "auto mechanics." To anyone who does not understand the distinction between power mechanics and auto mechanics, I suggest you drop by thelab or my office (Art 113) any time and I will be glad to clarify the point for you. Fred See TechnologyInstructor Prisoner of War Camp Horrors Retold (Editor's Note: North Vietnam's treatment of trje morethan 330 American pilots imprisoned tfeere has become one of the most emotional and controversialissues of the Vietnam War. What are the facts known to the U.S.. government about the treatment ofpilots? What do the wivesâ€”those who don't hold news conferencesâ€”think about the government'shandling of the issue? In this five-part series, a Pulitzer-prize winning reporter provides some surprisinganswers to these and other questions.) By Seymour M. Hersh Copyright 1971, Reporters News ServiceWASHINGTON, On September 2, 1969, Navy Lt. Robert F. Frishman, then 28, held a news conferenceat Bethesda Naval Hospital just outside of Washington. He had been released a month earlier from aprison cell somewhere in Hanoi; he was the first of nine pilots who had been freed by North Vietnam tospeak out. It was, he said, an ordeal of horror. He was given insufficient medical treatment for his armthat Was seriously wounded when he crashed. He was kept in solitary confinement. He was fed twoskimpy meals a day. He was forced to give confessions against his will. He told what happened when afellow pilot, Lieutenant Commander Richard A. Stratton, refused to make a statement: "He's been tiedup with ropes to such a degree that he still has large scars on his arms from rope burns which becameinfected. He was deprived of sleep, beaten, had his finger nails removed and put in solitary, but the NorthVietnamese insisted that he make the false humane treatment statements and threw him into a dark cellalone for thirty-eight days to think about it." It was a front-page story around the nations. Henry CabotLodge, then President Nixon's Ambassador to the Paris peace talks, cited the officerâ€”"I can do nobetter than to repeat the words of Lieutenant Frishman"-in a sharp attack on the North Vietnamese at the next negotiating session a few days later. Similar attacks were quickly made by U.S. representatives atthe 21st International Red Cross conference in Istanbul, Turkey and in the United Nations. In Congress,nearly 300 resolutions expressing support for the prisoners were introduced within two months ofFrishman's news conference. Frishman's testimony came at a critical time for the United States. TheWhite House had approved a major change in policy on the prisoner issue just a few months earlier. Nolonger would American officials attempt to negotiate privately and with restraintâ€”as in the JohnsonAdministration-for the release and safety of the more than 300 American pilots known to be captured bythe North Vietnamese. On May 19, 1969, five months after taking office, Secretary of Defense Melvin A.Laird took the prisoner issue public at a news conference, calling on Hanoi to respect the GenevaConvention on prisoners of war, which that nation had signed in 1957. Photographs indicating that somepilots had lost weight while in captivity were distributed, along with a fact booklet questioning the medical care being provided for others. "The North Vietnamese have claimed that they are treating our menhumanely," the defense secretary said. "I am distressed by that the fact that there is clear evidence thatthis is not the case." The defense chief had, as many officials later acknowledged, somewhat overstated his case. Hanoi had refused to abide by many of the standards for prisoner care outlined by the GenevaConvention; it did not permit a full flow of mail and packages; it did not provide accurate lists of thenumber and location of prisoners; and it did not permit impartial inspection of its prison camps. Yet thesolid evidence of systematic abuse of prisoners had always been missing. Even the intensiveinterrogation of the six prisoners released by Hanoi during 1968 provided no evidence of such abuse. The pilots reported that their biggest complaint was boredom and demoralization. The only seriousmanhandling came at the hands of local peasants after their plane crashed (the pilots were, of course,hated because of the heavy bombing) and occasionally at the hands of interrogators after reaching thefederal prisons. Even those sessions were hard to evaluate, with treatment varying on which Vietnameseofficial was doing the questioning and the attitude of the pilot. "You have to remember," explained oneState Department official close to POW affairs during an interview, "that much of this revolves over howmen react to mistreatment. For example, some children will cry over scratches; others will toleratebroken ankles." There is no question that the pilots now in captivity are suffering seriousdeprivationâ€”the. mere fact that they are 12,000 miles from their homes and families would be agonyenough. Yet, most of the evidence before Frishman's return indicated that the food supplied to theprisoners, meager as it was, was at least as plentifulâ€”if not moreâ€”than the hard-pressed Hanoi regime was giving to its prison camp guards. In addition, the isolation reported by the six men was not as greatas had been feared. One returned pilot told how he shared living quarters with three other pilots. The men, he said, often noisily argued among themselves. Most of the captives apparently were living in groups oftwo and four, although each group was carefully isolated from others.

Lettuce Boycott Prompts Picketing of Albertson 's ByJIM THOMSON Front Reporter A construction worker in his forties walked toward the entrance ofAlbertson's, his clothes covered with clay and grime, looking hot and parched. He halted near the doorwhen he saw the five students carrying picket signs and demanded to know what was going on. Abarefoot youth wearing cut-off jeans and a t-shirt handed him a leaflet explaining that the store was being boycotted because it was carrying non-union lettuce. After scanning the sheet, the worker threw backhis head and asked, "Where's the closest place I can buy some beer?" Seeing the surprise on thestudent's face, he said, "I come from Arkansas and I know what farm labor is like. I remember when youused to work for 75 cents a day and you had to sweat your balls off and get it." With that he returned tohis car and drove away from the Bellingham Mall. He was one of the 100 persons, who, according toGerry Mikesell, one of the picketers, turned away from Albertson's Friday afternoon. In the Albertson'soffice, store manager Gary Dickerson sat at a long paper-strewn desk. The wall above him was coveredwith clipboards, all neatly labeled and turned with their faces to the wall. "I don't care if they picketoutside our store, as long as they don't block the doors or harrass the customers," Dickerson said. Theyoung manager looked a little amused by the situation and said that he couldn't take the boycott veryseriously. "As far as the lettuce goes," he said, "I'm completely indifferent as to what kind of lettuce wecarry. I just want, good, high-quality lettuce that the customers will be happy with." Dickerson said hethinks the boycotters are applying pressure in the wrong place to get their reforms through. "The placethey should be picketing is down there in the lettuce fields, not here. They might be able to stop a fewpeople from shopping here, but they're just a small part of our customers. Most people just want goodlettuce and they don't care which union picked it," he said. Meanwhile, outside the store, reaction to thefive student pickets was mixed. Some people accepted the leaflets with a thank you and looked themover as they entered the store. Others folded their hands and looked the other way when leaflets wereoffered to them. A few stopped to ask thoughtful questions about the boycott: A few more stopped tosay, "You college kids are all the sameâ€”you're always protesting something. Why don't you studyinstead?" Every five minutes a car would drive into the parking lot, cruise by the pickets and drive away.A group of students picketed Safeway Saturday morning, but did not get as satisfactory results there asthey did at Albertson's. Mikesell attributed the failure at Safeway to class differences. "Albertson'sappeals to a little richer crowd than Safeway, and supposedly they are more socially conscious than theSafeway crowd," he said. esell added that he and other boycott organizers would be checking theproduce departments of both Albertson's and Ennen's Thriftway from now on to see if they are carryingunion lettuce. Ennen's is in an area heavily populated by students, and, according to Mikesell, carry quite a bit of non-union lettuce, which makes them a good target for picketing. Prisoners of War (continuedfrom page 5) There is some evidence that military officials were aware of the strained case that was being presented at the news conference. In a private letter sent by the military on June 5, wives and parents of captured and missing Air Force pilots were told that they would be given a personal briefing on theprisoner situation. The letter also enclosed copies of the materials supplied to the press, with thisexplanation: "The briefing was specifically designed to bring the pressure of the world opinion to bear onthe enemy which, hopefully, will result in more information about and better treatment for our downedpersonnel." The letter concluded with this remarkable sentence: "We are certain that you will notbecome unduly concerned over the briefing if you keep in mind the purpose for which it was tailored."Despite the new Nixon Administration emphasis on the prisoners, the issue still hadn't evolved into amajor public debate by late summer, 1969, when Hanoi released Frishman and two other prisoners intothe care of anti-war groups. Even the wives and mothers of captured and missing men, who had begun to organize in 1969 over the Johnson Administration's quiet diplomacy, had failed to arouse broad interestwith their occasional picketing of government buildings and protests. During testimony in mid-Decemberbefore the House Committee on Internal Security, formerly known as the House UnAmerican ActivitiesCommittee, Frishman declared that the treatment afforded the pilots in North Vietnam was "generallyworse" than that given to the crew of the Pueblo. The worst torture, however, was the isolation, he said.Encouraged by the committee members to continue, Frishman added: "I don't know all the prisoners upthere,,but I would say there are a large percentage that are in isolation and have been so for a long time." He himself had indicated to an Italian reporter during the interview in Hanoi that he had been in isolationfor 18 months. In his testimony before the House Internal Security Committee, Frishman reported how he had been taken on trips to war and art museums in downtown Hanoi. He told at one point how, after anoperation on his injured elbow, "I . . I could not even get up so they (the prison officials) brought someone in; another prisoner came in and he would more or less just take care of me like a nurse. He would getmy food, empty my bucket, actually feed me, wash my clothes, and things like that. It was a tremendous help for me." Another indication that Frishman's isolation was not as severe as he had indicated publiclywas privately supplied by the Pentagon to a family that had reported the tentative identification of itsPOW son in a national* magazine article. " L i e u t e n a n t Frishman's debriefing," a discouraging letter to the family said, "positively identified the photograph . . . as that of a U.S. Air Force Officer (not theirson) who had been Lieutenant Frishman's roommate while in captivity." My interviews with governmentofficials in late 1970 also produced the fact that Frishman and the two other returnees had been able totentatively name more than 300 pilots believed to be prisoners of war in North Vietnam, another sign ofsome social contact. There were doubts about Frishman's account of prison life beingexpressedâ€”privately-at various stages of the government. Patrick J. McGarvey, now a Washington freelance writer, was then an analyst for the Defense Intelligence Agancy (DIA) working on the North Vietnam desk. When the Frishman debriefing papers came across his desk, he recalled, "I smelled a ringer rightoff. It just didn't jibe with anything else I had seen." McGarvey said he and others ini the agency wereconvinced Frishman was telling "a song and dance story." Officials at the State Department concernedwith prisoner matters also were surprised by the Frishman statements. Although the military had beeninterrogating the Navy officer for weeks before the Sept. 2 news conference, none of the interrogationpapers had been forwarded to State. There were further disturbing questions about one of Frishman'sfellow prisoners who had been released with him, Navy Seaman Douglas B. Hegdahl, then 23. Hegdahlhad been captured by the North Vietnamese in April, 1967 after falling off his destroyer while it was onduty in the Gulf of Tonkin. He appeared at the Bethesda news conference and told how he had lost 60pounds and been kept in solitary confinement for more than a year during his 16 months of captivity. Yet a few days after the news conference, Hegdahl, who is from South Dakota, returned home and told aMinneapolis reporter the reason why he had lost so much weight: the prison authorities had taken awayhis roommate, so he went on a hunger strike for months to get another. He ate only part of the two meals of soup and bread he received daily, until "The higher ups saw that I was skinny and I later got aroommate." Hegdahl acknowledged that the food served to him in North Vietnam "would have beenadequate" if he had eaten it all. At no time did the young sailor, or any government official, volunteer theinformation that his weight was directly due to a voluntary hunger strike. (More than a year later I askeda government official not involved in the interrogation of Hegdahl if he knew why the sailor had lost somuch weight. He quickly replied that Hegdahl had cone on a hunger strike. I asked why that Informationhadn't been made available to journalists. "I don't know about that, but I had no trouble learning about it,"was the response:, .â€¢ . .

SehomeHill Arboretum Okayed by Trustees By LARRY LEMON Assistant Copy Editor The Board of Trusteesgave its approval T h u r s d a y to the construction of a multi-community arboretum on Sehome Hill.Only "minor work" will be done on the arboretum this year according to Harold Goltz, campus planner.The project has been allocated $2,000 in the '71-'72 budget. The ecological emphasis of the arboretumwill be on entire plant communities native to the United States. "There will be no exotic plants andshrubs like those in the University of Washington's arboretum," Goltz said. He said that the absence ofexotic plants will cut down on maintenance costs and complement the ecological emphasis of theBiology Department of Western and Huxley colleges. "Many of the parks in Bellingham have a primaryfunction," Goltz added. "Civic field is athletic, Bayview Park is a cemetery and Sehome Hill will be anarboretum." The four botanical communities under consideration are: â€”Pacific Northwest forestcommunity. "Since Sehome Hill is already heavily forested, we would merely select the most desirablesites for preservation with maintenance being limited to trail establishment and repair." -Alpinecommunity. This community would be" set up on the rocky, exposed sites on the crest of the hill. Plantsin this area would be representative of those in the North Cascades. -Midwest deciduous forest. This willbe an "expensive" sector in the arboretum, according to the proposal drawn up by Ronald J. Taylor,chairman of the Arboretum Committee. A stand of second-growth Alder and Blackberry thicket will haveto be cleared before establishing the representative trees, shrubs and herbs. "This can only be projectedfor future development," Taylor said. -Savanna-grassland-'There is one rather dry southeast facing slopewith few trees that could be developed into a savanna-grassland community with moderate expense,"Taylor said. A key point in the proposal is the city-college function of the proposed arboretum. "SehomeHill is a priceless asset to both the college and the city," Taylor said. "Its development should be such to benefit both communities equally and to the fullest." He said the existing recreational facilities would bemaintained and expanded. "There could be a playground, small picnic areas, nature trails, a small pond,gardens and possibly an observatory," he said. To ensure that the project had both city and collegesupport, Taylor recommended that the Board of Trustees and the city of Bellingham agree to "put thearboretum under the control and management of an Arboretum Board of Overseers and should appointthree representatives from the college, three from the city and another three from a larger constituency."Taylor is pressing for "a firm and binding commitment, restricting land use to that determined by theappropriate arboretum agency." "Ultimately," he said, "the arboretum boundaries would enclose all ofSehome City Park." "An arboretum," he added, "would combine educational, scientific, recreational'andaesthetic attributes. It would be a facility for which the people of Bellingham and of the college could beproud." Parking System Finalized; Points Determine Need By BOB MCLAUCHLAN Front Reporter The Parking Committee voted unanimously to implement the point system next year with four point-determining factors. They also agreed to keep permit prices the same as this past year. All A, B, and Clots will be $18 a quarter; 26D and 21D will be $8; ID and 20D will be $4; and motorcycle parking will be$1.50 per quarter. Permit applications for fall quarter will have to be filled out before people leave campusat the end of this quarter. Applications will be available beginning May 15 at the pre-registration centerunder Edens Hall. On the application, individuals are asked to list several point-determining factors whichare: -three points will be given for every quarter an individual has been on campus. â€”200 points forpeople who need their vehicles on campus daily. This "need" factor still has to be determined by theParking Committee. â€”40 points for people living beyond a set boundary line. The boundary lines areHolly Street, College Parkway, Taylor Avenue from 21st' to 14th, South State Street to Taylor Avenue and North State to Holly Street. â€”for those in car pools, the total number of points of each car in the poolwill be combined. Car pools are formed when several car owners decide to go together and trade offbringing each car to campus. Therefore only one car is on campus at a time. One space is given to carpool holders. Security and Safety will mail lot assignments to people during the summer. A space willbe reserved for those who have the parking money in by Aug. 31. Anyone who does not send the permitmoney in will have to buy a permit on a first-come, first-serve basis in the Fall. Annual and quarterlypermits will be sold for next year. An annual permit will be valid from Sept. 15 through June 14. It will beavailable only to faculty and staff members. The quarterly permit will be sold to students and teachingassistants. FINES Next year's parking enforcement procedure was also established by the ParkingCommittee. A fine of $ 1 will be charged for each parking violation. If a vehicle owner fails to pay the firsttwo fines, his vehicle will be impounded on the third violation and each succeeding violation until the fines are paid. Those who pay their $1 fines could keep getting tickets all year long without having theirvehicle impounded. Vehicles parked in areas that endanger the college community (such as in a fire lane) or deprive a legal permit holder from parking in a lot, will be impounded on the first violation. In the eventa permit holder cannot find a parking space in his assigned lot, he can park anywhere in that lot and then call security. He must not go to another lot or he will be subject to a possible fine. College parkingregulations will be in effect throughout the calendar year except on Saturdays, Sundays and on officialcollege holidays, ^ r" The committee also voted to recommend to President Flora to have the college hold off on Project Intertie, a landscaping project between Carver Gym and Bond Hall. Starting on this project would take away several needed parking spaces for next year. Due to other construction projects,several hundred parking spaces will be lost next year alone.

In a 5-1 vote,the council decided to cancel the event to prevent on-campus activities from conflicting with the city'sannual Blossomtime Festival during the same week. The council also faced money problems in fundingthe Multi-Arts Festival. AS Program Commissioner Denny Hjeresen, the lone dissenting vote in thecouncil decision, said he hated to see the event pass from the campus. "It looks like the end," Hjeresenexplained, "because it will be difficult to start it up again next year." An all-day rock festival on the lawnnear Fairhaven College and an arts and crafts exhibit in Red Square had been planned, Hjeresen said.He said that his office may go ahead with the arts and crafts part of the festival anyway if enough interestcan be generated.

Fish Eye Trout Jumping at Silver BySCOTT ANDERSON Front Reporter Fishing remains slow in Whatcom County, but three area lakes areproducing larger fish. Silver Lake remains the top produ I hiked into Fragrance myself this past weekendand found the fish hitting cheese eggs, spoon flies, and the brass and silver lures. I also managed to fallinto the lake, which gave my fishing partner for the day, Frank Karuza, quite a laugh. I understand thatWhatcom Lake is still producing some cuts up to five pounds. I also hear that the catfish are biting^atWiser Lake. Incidentally, if you want to try catfishing, try your luck at night. I find that worms are the best bait for these nightfeeders. For those of you who have your doubts, night fishing is legal, provided thatyou use no artificial lights. So get used to tying those hooks in the dark. I haven't tried Samish yet, butit's still a little early in the season for the silvers to be hitting. If you feel you must fish it, though, Irecommend some experimental trolling towards the south end. Tip of the week: To keep your fish fresh,keep them alive aa long as possible. Before hiking out, clean the fish and stick them in an empty creel,covering them only with dry grass. If you go out fishing, please give me a call at Western Front, 676-3160, and report your catch and what you were fishing for.

The Viks lost the second game, 4-3. Photo ByDAVE SHERMAN Vikings Win Marathon, Drop Second Contest By PAUL MADISON Front SportsReporter A titanic pitching duel won by Western 1-0 in 14 innings highlighted a crucial EvergreenConference (Evco) baseball doubleheader between the Vikings and the Eastern Oregon College (EOC)Mountaineers at Bellingham's Civic Field Saturday. Western lost the second game 4-3 in the regulation 7 innings, but remained deadlocked for the league lead with Central Washington. The Wildcats split withlast-place Oregon Tech at Ellensburg, losing 9-3 and winning 7-1. Both Western and Central have 6-4Evco records. The Vikings are 14-8 overall. A bases-loaded single by Ron Porterfield ended the 3 hourand 20 minute marathon in the bottom of the 14th inning. Scoring the winner was pitcher Don Balke, whohad opened the inning with a single off Mountie third-baseman Gordie Sypher's glove. Balke had gone all the way for Western as did lefthander George McGhee for EOC. For McGhee it was a heart-breakingloss. He had held the Vikings hitless for 11 and two-thirds innings before a double by outfielder DickM'erenda spoiled the gem. Western didn't get a man on base until the fifth inning when Rocky Jacksonwas hit by a pitch. For Western's gutty righthander Balke things weren't as smooth. Consecutive singlesgreeted him in the first inning, but he responded with three straight strikeouts. In the second, a keydouble-play turned in by third-baseman Keith Reynvaan got the Vikings out of trouble. Fielding gemswere also turned in by shortstop Dave Bobillot and second-baseman Jackson. Jackson robbed CharlieLewis of a single with a sensational grab of his line drive, while Bobillot made two fine plays from deepshort on ground balls. Balke had one stretch from the sixth through eleventh innings where he pitchedhitless ball, then in" the 12th got out of a big jam with a remarkable effort. Ron Scott singled to lead offand John Collins was safe on a bunt single, Scott going to third, having advanced to second on a passedball. Balke bore, down and struck out Steve Maurer and got Mike Turnbill on an easy grounder. ButFlmer Stone drew a walk to load the bases. With McGhee up the count went to 3 balls, no strikes beforeBalke fired across two clutch strikes then got the EOC pitcher on a grounder back to Lhe mound. â€¢ Inall Balke struck out 11, spading 8 hits. McGhee fanned 10 giving up 4 hits, 3 coming in ! he 14th. Bothpitchers walked only 4. Western's winning run came when Balke led off .ith a hit. He advanced on a buntsingle by fiobillot and proceeded to third when shortstop Turnbill dropped the throw on an attempted force out at third base on Reynvaan's fielder's choice. Porterfield then performed his heroics. In the secondcontest Western scored two runs in the first inning to take an early lead. The Mounties tied it up in thethird, scoring two runs off Viking starter Jim Reed. EOC pitcher John Stroud singled across Rick Fosterand Mike Turnbull sacrificed Bob Johnson in with a well executed bunt. Western took the lead back inthe bottom of the third. Johnson got the second of three hits in the game, stole second and continued tothird as the catcher's throw went into the out-field. Porterfield drove him in with a sacrifice fly. Easterngot what proved to be their winning runs in the fifth inning. Scott opened with a single. Collins hit agrounder to Reed whose throw to second trying to force Scott was high.

Will they compete? Wrestlers say no Aitken says yes by O. K. JOHNSONWestern's wrestling team reaffirmed its decision made last week to not participate in the wrestlingprogram unless the administration hires a wrestling coach. Last week physical education director,Margaret Aitken said that as far as the administration is concerned, the wrestling season is not canceled and Western will field an intercollegiate team. Aitken also said that the search for a coach may be neara conclusion, but that any hiring would not be on a full-time basis. Team members said they want acoach of comparable ability to replace Lanny Bryant who resigned his coaching position last May. Aconsensus of those interviewed said they would accept either a part-time or full-time coach, but he wouldhave to be acceptable to the wrestlers. The grapplers have already turned down an offer by Aitken thatwould give the wrestlers a supervisor instead of a coach. George Crittenden, a member of the wrestlingteam said, "supervisor systems haven't worked in the past. Pacific Lutheran has the system and noteams who are any good will wrestle them. They don't even wrestle everyone in their conference." "In ourconference, Eastern Oregon had the system, and they weren't any good until they changed," Crittendensaid. 'The University of Washington also had the system, and until they got Smith they didn't have a good program." Crittenden also said that if Western doesn't get a coach and they do go to a supervisorsystem, "they'll never get the wrestling program back." Crittenden said that the supervisor Aitken hadproposed for the job was found to have only junior high coaching experience and that he "doesn't even doa very good job of teaching fundamentals." Crittenden also said that athletic director, Boyde Long, toldhim that as soon as the wrestling program starts losing, it would be dropped. Long was unable to becontacted for comment. Before the end of spring quarter when Bryant resigned as head wrestling coach,an unofficial spokesman for the wrestlers said they had felt confident a coach would have been hiredwhen they returned in the fall. Crittenden said Bryant had talked with Aitken GEORGE CRITTENDENand he assured the team that Aitken would try to find them a coach. But when the wrestlers came backto school, no coach had been hired. They started asking questions trying to find out what had happened. The wrestlers said Aitken has had the opportunities to fill the position with qualified individuals who cancoach wrestling as well as teach, but that she has passed them by. Mike Donnelly, another member ofthe wrestling team, said that with Bryant gone, Western is hurting for good transfers and top high school material. "Bryant brought wrestling clinics and the state 'AA' wrestling tournament to Western," Donnelly said. Crittenden said that it would have been cheaper to pay Bryant more money than to hire a newperson. "I just wonder," Crittenden said, "if Aitken is still going to have wrestling clinics and if she isgoing to organize and run them herself. I also wonder why there was no effort on her part to keep Bryanthere." Western goes poof! by BOB McLAUCHLAN The Viking Union complex, the Music AuditoriumBuilding and the music Annex (formerly the president's house) were suddenly without electricity at11:20 a.m. yesterday when a power outage occurred. A backhoe, working near Old Main, ripped through a 5,350 volt power cable which services the area. The incident caused an immediate power loss except for lights which remained dim .for a few minutes before going out. When the source of the trouble wasdiscovered several minutes later, the remaining power was cut-off to prevent damage to equipment which could not function under low voltage. A spokesman from Totem Electric of Tacoma, which wasresplicing the cable, estimated that power would be restored by 6 p.m. last night at the earliest. Otherestimates from physical plant and campus planning personnel ranged from midnight to several daysbefore the damage could be repaired. Hit hardest by the accident was Saga food services which had totransfer several truck loads of food from its freezers to the commissary coolers. Housing director PeteCoy and food services director Riley Sivertsen were overseeing the transfer of the food. They said thatsandwiches and soup would probably be the menu that night. Sivertsen said that the dinner hours would probably be earlier than usual so that people could see to eat. He said that candles were to be providedif it got too dark. Closed down because of darkness and lack of power were the coffee shop, the Deli and the bookstore. Many classes were suspended in the Music A u d i t o r i u m Building. Constructionwas also halted. The bookstore, however, opened its doors in the late afternoon after workers wired upgenerators to run the store's electricity. Many people were perplexed at what caused the lights to dim.One person was plugging in an electric typewriter when the power loss occurred. He thought that he had caused the mishap. f Rubber-ized technology Solution fits the problem gt; In an effort to combatvenereal disease among Western students, College; President Charles J. Flora has approved theinstallation of condom machines in four campus restrooms. Pete Coy, director of housing, wasauthorized to purchase the prophylactic dispensers and place them in men's public restrooms located inNash Hall, Ridgeway Kappa, next to the Viking Union coffee shop and on the VU second floor. Profitfrom the machines will be retained in the Housing and Dining System budget. "We're trying to make them as accessible as possible," Coy said. According to Bill McDonald, dean of students, the idea was firstproposed last year by Dr. Phillip Jones, a Whatcom County Health Department . officer, because of thesharp rise in V.D. The idea \ v a s then handed to the Western Health Services Committee fordeliberation. After considering if the condoms would be used, and whether they would really help inreducing the rising V.D. rate, the committee endorsed the idea and presented it to Flora for his approval.The machines will probably be installed within a month. McDonald explained that this is going to be atrial program and the results are going to be closely monitored to see if the program really has an effecton the V.D. rate. Pete Coy said he had a problem trying to find information concerning prophylactics.Finally, he received a phone call telling him where the information could be obtained. He ended theconversation by saying, "Thanks, I couldn't find, them listed in the yellow pages!" J College to hearbudget request / ; Inside...

See page 11. _J A $45 million operatingbudget request for 1973-75-an increase of over $10 million from the last budgetâ€”will be presented to the All-College Senate at 4 p.m. Wednesday in Lecture Hall 3. The request is broken as $33,614,000 fromstate general fund; $7,721,000, local general fund and $4,425,000 from grants and contracts. However,adjustments are expected to be made on the budget next month when final enrollment figures are in.College president Charles J. Flora will open the meeting and then college business manager Donald Cole will outline the budget. The budget is prepared around the yearly average enrollment figures and theOffice of Program Planning and Fiscal Mamangement has set the projected enrollment figures forWestern at 10,225 in the 1973-74 school year and 10,651 in 1974-75. College officials said they did notthink these figures could be met. Primarily affected in enrollment drops are instruction, library andstudent services portions of the budget. During the 1971-72 school year the average annual enrollmentwas 9,302. This fall quarter the enrollment has dropped to 8,800, causing the college to lose half a million dollars in local student fees. Part of the money will be made up by holding vacant eight faculty and eight staff positions. Also money will be used from the president's reserve fund and funds collected from otherremaining budgets. ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 10 - Page 2 ---------- Western Front Tuesday, October 10/1972 i?/c/z Collingwood photo Leash law unenforced Canines safeon campus by MICHAEL HULL For all practical purposes, Western's boundaries enclose a non-enforcement area for Bellingham's animal control laws. Although the city's animal control agency, theWhatcom County Humane Society, has received various complaints of dogs roaming the collegecampus, a spokesman for the society said, "We're doing nothing by mutual agreement with the collegeT" The humane society is contracted by Bellingham to enforce a "leash law," or animal control law, withincity limits. Although the campus comes under supervision of this city ordinance, there is no animalcontrol unless specifically requested by Western's security department. Humane Society sheltermanager Gerb Oordt understood, following a meeting with someone from Western's Safety and SecurityDepartment in May, that the college was concerned students would become upset if an animal controlofficer came on campus for patrol work. Not wanting to be the instigator of waves on the campus, Oordtsaid the society decided not to patrol the area, but to work the campus perimeter. He added that at theMay meeting there was general agreement the humane society staff was hardly big enough to work therest of the city, and with addition of Western patrols, the officer's time would be strained. Oordt said theshort-handed condition still exists. Oordt also understood the college would construct a holding pen foranimals captured by security personnel, and the society's officer would then pick up the animals fromsecurity. So far there is no pen. However, Security Director R. G. Peterson said Tuesday, "We're in theprocess now of attempting to formulate animal control policies on this campus." Peterson would notpredict when or if the policies would be made. He claimed ho knowledge of a "mutual agreement"between the security department and the humane society, except "they (the society) had neither thepersonnel or facilities" to work on the campus. Oordt said college security calls whenever they needassistance from the humane society, and the society responds to a request "immediately." Petersonsays the animal control officer is welcome to come on Western's campus at any time and do his job. He added his office has received some calls about dog problems, however very few and none of a seriousnature. Peterson's invitation for the animal control officer to come on campus surprised the animalcontrol officer, who thought there was a "mutual understanding" between the security department and the society.

Rich Collingwood photo Fairhaven graduate relives bus robbery lot near the commissary. Thereare still some motorcycle permits for sale at $1.50 per quarter. Part of the reason given for the sellout is the closing of some lots this quarter for construction sites. by ALICE COLLINGWOOD After more thani 00,000 miles of trouble-free domestic and international air travel in the past four years, a recentFairhaven graduate suddenly found himself the victim of a strange - hijacking Friday night. He was on abus from Seattle to Bellingham. Paul Johnson, who graduated from Fairhaven winter quarter, was one of30 passengers on an ill-fated bus who were relieved of their billfolds, purses and jewelry in a robberyreminiscent of the old West. The m o d e r n - d a y stagecoach was commandeered by two men aboutan hour after it left Seattle, and the driver was instructed to turn off on a deserted road near the Skagitand Snohomish county line. "I heard some dude in the back of the bus yell, 'everybody, everybody,'"Johnson said. "I thought it was some drunk and that we were about to get a lecture about hellfire anddamnation. "I turned around and saw him holding a rifle, which he apparently had carried under his longraincoat. He told us to put our hands on our heads. At the same time, another man at the front of the Bus put a pistol to the driver's head." Johnson said a 13- or 14-year-old boy was taken from his mother as ahostage after the bus stopped. He was taken outside the bus and told to lie down. A gun was held to hishead until the robbers were finished. The men told the passengers all they wanted were billfolds, pursesand jewerly. The passengers were instructed to get off the bus one at a time and drop their belongings ina bag the driver was forced to hold outside the rear of the bus. "They said they didn't want to killanybody," Johnson said, "but they told us they would check us as we got back on the bus and it wouldreally be too bad if they found anything." Johnson said possibly the most frightening moment for him was when a woman passenger fainted near the loot bag at the rear of the bus. He said she still had her ringson so he covered her Poli Sci election short candidates The political science department is holding anelection and nobody's running. The department curriculum committee has two positions forundergraduates open, and according to department chairman Gerald Rutan, no students have declaredany intention to run. The committee advises the department chairman on proposed changes in classscheduling and course changes. In order to participate, a student must be a declared p o l i t i c a lscience major (blue book signed by the department chairman), Rutan said. The committee is made upof the department chairman, three other faculty members, one graduate student and twoundergraduates. In order for the election to be validated, 20 per cent of all undergraduates and 50 percent of all graduate students must vote. Also, before voting all majors must present their signedbluebooks. The committee will start planning the 1973-74 curriculum' within the next five or sixweeks,.Rutan said. hands as he tried to help her back to the bus. She fainted again at the door of thebus, and Johnson couldn't get her inside. One of the armed men came over and yelled at him to hurry up. "I told him I was trying, and he put his gun to my head and said, 'try harder!' " Just as Johnson returnedto his seat, he heard four gunshots outside the bus and thought someone had been shot. He looked outin time to see the men shooting at the tires at the rear of the bus. Johnson said the robbers escaped ina red car, which apparently had followed them from Seattle. After the robbers fled, the driver backed thebus out of the narrow road in the woods on which it was parked. Johnson said a police car passed anearby intersection just then and the bus driver flashed the lights to attract attention. "Within a half hour,we were converged upon by everyoneâ€”the Snohomish County Sheriff, the State Patrol and the FBI,"Johnson said. "They questioned us for a long time, and finally a relief bus came to take us toBellingham." The bus, which was due at 10:25 p.m. Friday, finally reached Bellingham at 3 a.m.Saturday. "Everybody was really calm during the whole thing," Johnson said. "But some people askeddumb questions, and I was afraid they would upset the robbers. "One woman kept asking if she couldjust give them the contents and keep her purse. A man wanted to keep his lighter. The robbers werereally getting mad." Johnson lost $28, all his identification and several credit cards. He said one manlost $590 and another man, a sailor on leave from the merchant marine, lost $125 and all his papers. One girl was relieved of 18 cents and her lipstick and mascara. "I still can't believe it happened," Johnsonsaid Saturday. "At the time, I couldn't believe anybody would want to hijack a bus." Johnson returnedSaturday afternoon by car with empty pockets to Seattle, where he substitute teaches for several southSeattle school districts.

Faculty Council chairman Knute Skinner Faculty Council begins to dissolve itself TheFaculty Council last Thursday moved a step further toward its own dissolution. The council passed amotion that its executive committee prepare a proposal by Nov. 15 establishing a means of transferringresponsibility from the council to the faculty caucus of the All-College Senate or a comparable body.The motion was made by August Radke of the history faculty, who felt that the council should get theball rolling as soon as possible. The council had originally planned to phase itself out last fall, when theAll-College Senate began functioning. However, being a new body, the senate was having difficultygetting committees together, council chairman Knute Skinner said. College President Charles J. Floratold the Faculty Council last year to gradually phase out and not to terminate itself abruptly, since it isthe only legal body which represents faculty concerns. Some other college body will have to replace the council. But it has not been determined which body will do so. Many of the faculty council membersfeel that the council's responsibilities will be taken over by the faculty caucus of the senate. However, itis not known whether the faculty senators are ready or willing to take over the council's responsibilities.One member told the council that it should spell out those things which are exclusively faculty concernsbefore the transfering of power occurs. The council handles such faculty matters as retirement, healthinsurance and writing of the faculty handbook. Several members of the council are currently in theprocess of writing a new faculty handbook. The old book has been in existence since 1966. Thehandbook has to be approved by the Board of Trustees before it is distributed to faculty members.Students needed for committees Students are needed to sit on this year's standing committees.Interested students may apply at the AS office in Viking Union 227 or contact Jim Stenson at 676-0320after 5 p.m. A list of committees is posted in the AS office.

FROM: Jerry Flora by STEVE JOHNSTON The above notice went out to various parts ofWestern last Friday and even the dull witted can see at least two things wrong with it. The first is not toosurprising and should be spotted right away, although some people might be put off for a few moments by the sentence which reads, "This will be an important presentation and I invite your attendance," but given enough time they should discover there is no time mentioned So in the interests of fair play, the collegecommunity will get its choice.

It will be in Lecture Hall 5 Now the second thing is a little more subtleand requires an inquiring mind.

Applications are available atthe receptionist's desk on the second floor of the Viking Union. Applicants are interviewed by theActivities council, a board composed of students, faculty and staff. The selection process takes placeannually in late winter or early spring quarter. The Program Commission attempts to provide a variety ofentertainment for the students of WWSC. To this end we offer a weekly coffee house specializing in folkmusic which features a relatively well known artist of the folk genre and an open mike to give Westernstudents a chance to display their own talents in this field. We also offer a weekly film series, a lectureprogram and a series of Friday night dances. Our concert program came under heavy fire in Dave Haeck's letter published in the Oct. 6 issue of the Western Front. The mentioned appearance of the Ike and Tina Revue took place spring quarter of 1970. I would like, at this time, to list a few of the artists who haveperformed on this campus under the auspices words? We can only guess and picture Jerry Florahunched over a typewriter, carefully typing out this memo and then saying to himself, "I shouldn't saythat," and blankly blanking out the offending word or words.

Roughly, we aredependent on booking into Northwest tours since we lack the funds to bring a group out from the Eastcoast on our own. We work in conjunction with the other Washington State schools on block bookingarrangements as well as working through professional booking agents to arrange performance dates. Ihope I have answered some of the questions raised by Mr. Haeck. If he or any other interested studentwishes additional information, I would encourage them to contact the Program Commission, extension3738, or stop by Viking Union 201.

Stannard Jr. J thefront line by DUFF WILSON I've got a couple tickets this year and I'm worried about coming back someday to find my car gone. Why and when does Security bring the tow truck in? Also, what would happen if we didn't have a security patrol on campus? Do the B'ham police have the right to come in? -S.W.Security tows cars on the issuance of a third unpaid ticket, with two exceptions. If a car prevents a vehicle with a permit from parking in a specified lot or if it endangers someone's safety or college property, itthen can be towed away on the first offense. The specific towing company for each year is decided bybids on a contract, to get the best possible price. Horton's has handled the job the last three years.Bellingham Police do have jurisdiction over the campus. Our security officers don't have the power ofarrest, and can only bring cases of misdemeanor before a judicial board. Security is good to have around. They do a tough job well. Mike Barnhart, the college president's assistant, thinks it's one of the very best around. Keith Guy, chairman of the student rights and responsibilities committee, concurs, adding thatcampus security is very respectful of student rights. Inspector John Burley of the police department saysthey do a fine job, saving him a lot of effort that is employed in other areas. All three men hold thedirector of security, R. G. Peterson, in great esteem. He knows his business and he does it well. Thenew I.D.s without pictures are a rip-off. If yours gets stolen anybody can get all kinds of library books inyour name, not to mention other things like checks at the cashier's office. I'm sure most people wouldlike the old ones better. They were good identification downtown, and a person who obviously doesn'tlook like you couldn't use the card. Anybody could be anybody now. -A.M. There were two main reasons for changing cards: function and cost. The main function of student I.D. was just to show you're enrolled at Western. Jack Smith, Viking Union assistant director of operations, said, "It was felt that all the on-campus uses of the card could be handled adequately with a non-picture card." A committee met lastsummer, consisting of people from areas that use the cards: the library, physical education department,Viking Union, registrar and more. They reviewed the whole system, contacted several I.D. companies,and agreed on the change. The staff of the library wants any new card, picture or not, that is fast to getand will work well in their punch-out machine. The old, laminated card was just too thick and oftenmalfunctioned. The new card, due to arrive about Oct. 15, is color-coded, will require a signature and hasthe name embossed (raised). It looks like a credit card. "As far as downtown," Smith said, "you're in thesame position as everybody else. The people on the committee didn't think there would be any hassle."The cost is another factor: old Polaroid cards cost over 80 cents to issue, while the non-picturereplacements are produced for 25 cents. Still, this looks to be a step backwards in I.D. cards. Picturecards are inherently more useful and inestimably harder to misuse. Student demand could be asignificant factor in effecting a reversal to some type of picture I.D. And technology surely can produceone that won't screw up the library's machine. Questions? Hassles? Complaints? Write FRONTLINE,Western Front Eating pasta is ethical? Editor, Western Front: It is with profound regret that I callattention to an error on the part of your proofreader. In my letter to you, published in the Oct. 6 issue,you printed the phrase "ethnic conduct" in reference to Sen. McGovern. What in heaven's name is"ethnic conduct"? Eating pasta? My original letter used the term "ethical conduct", which, I would hope,carries more meaning-and more weight-than the nonsensical term you attributed to me. It may be,however, that in the chaotic state of our society the word "ethnic" is familiar to-more people than theword "ethical", especially in the realm of politics. If this be so, I can only tremble for the future of mycountry. "O temporal O mores!" Thanking you for your kind attention, I now withdraw into the obscurityfrom whence I came, to hold my peace until at least next quarter. Michael Hillis 1111 High St..

Rich Collingwood photos Shoemaker sells Western students to the community by KATHISANDBOE If you think selling encyclopedias is hard, how would you like to try selling a college? George Shoemaker's job is to sell Western and students to alumni and downtown businessmen for scholarshipfunds. As director and development officer of the WWSC Foundation, he not only administers the fundsbut also raises them. "It's a lot like a sales office," he said. He spends a lot of time on the move talkingto prospective donors and trying to uncover new prospects. Shoemaker's job is to organize drives forfunds from alumni, businesses and the college community. He goes out and meets people to try tosolicit money from them. "It's a lot of time and hard work," Shoemaker said, but he describes himself asenthusiastic. Shoemaker's day starts out with the Wall Street Journal and two daily publications onchanges in tax laws. He studies these so he can advise donors on the tax implications of their gifts. Hespends half his day on administrative work, responding to donations, talking to people and writingbrochures. A large part of his day, though, is spent meeting people and asking them for donations. "It's a lonely type of job," he said. "There is no one to share my experiences with, and very few peopleunderstand what it's all about. "I'm very optimistic about the foundation. More people are taking aninterest in it, and it should expand into a going concern." The WWSC Foundation is a non-profitcorporation with its own board of directors. It is a separate legal entity from the college, but all fundsgiven to the foundation work for the benefit of the college. All donations are encouraged to come throughNelson begins term as draft counselor Call me enthusiastic the foundation as it eliminates most of thered tape and are tax deductible. In 1964 the state attorney general authorized the college to establish afoundation, operated by its own board of directors. This foundation, chartered in 1966, is the legalrecipient of all gifts benefiting the college. Money raised for scholarships is turned over to the financialaids office, which then distributes it. The foundation would also like to raise money for research grants for departments, faculty and students. The foundation is also working on a program to establish trusts inwhich a donor would annually receive 5 per cent of his donation, with the principal going to the foundationupon his death. For the past six years the foundation has averaged $15,000 a year, but Shoemakerhopes to raise it to $50-60,000 by June, '73. The biggest problem for the foundation is becoming self-sufficient. Shoemaker would like to receive more unrestricted donations, which would mean thefoundation, with the board's approval, could use the money anyway they see fit. J by JAMES HEITZMAN Draft counseling at Western will soon be in full swing as Larry Nelson begins a term of counseling here.Nelson is awaiting up-dated material from San Francisco on the draft. Nelson said he needed materialfor his own use and as handouts for students. He also plans on maintaining a reference library forstudents. Nelson is usually available for counseling at noon Monday and Wednesday, Thursdayafternoon and most of the day on Friday. But, he said, as of yet there is no concrete schedule. Hisoffice is in Old Main 213, the Associate Dean of Students office, phone 676-3729. "I view my role as aninformation resource. I am not here to give advice, only information," he said. About three students a day see Nelson, the main problems being juniors and seniors in danger of losing student defermentsbecause of lack of credits. The Selective Service law states a student must progress at a certain rateper academic year to hold a student deferment. Only juniors and seniors now have deferments since the s t u d e n t deferment was eliminated for those entering college. He also gets "quite a few questionsfrom people who have the draft hot on their heels." Their number is up and they are looking for a way toget out of the draft. Nelson said he had had two inquiries about emigrating to Canada and one individualhas since gone to Canada. Some students have asked about obtaining a conscientious objector status. He said he can supply the legal facts but "they are on their own as far as decisions." One of theproblems of counseling people is that they wait too long for information. Also many people do not keepgood records of correspondence with their draft boards. A conscientious objector should begin preparinga case as soon as his beliefs become clear, he said. He also said it would be wise for draft-agestudents to consider alternatives to the draft such as the reserves, enlistment or Canada before the time actually comes to act. Before coming to Western, Nelson was director of student a c t i v i t i e s atCentralia Community College for three years. He studied two years at Centralia College and two yearsat Western. He graduated in 1968 with a B.A. in English and taught high school English in WashingtonState. He is now working on his master's degree in college s t u d e n t p e r s o n n el administration.When asked why he changed, he replied he "liked this kind of work better." ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 10 - Page 7 ---------- Tuesday, October 10, 1972 Western Front 7 UYA needs youths to volunteer services r Needed: Four tofive million young Americans to treat the social ills of a nation. They are needed for a proposed nationalprogram in which every American young person, particularly those between 18 and 19 years of age,would be encouraged to contribute at least one year of full-time volunteer service to his community, state and nation. Young people in Washington state may be among the first to become involved in theproject, as this state has been chosen for a pilot program for Universal Year of Action. Tod Sundquist,last year's Associated Students president, is touring the state talking to people to measure interest insuch a nationwide volunteer program. A private firm is conducting a national survey to determine "thesocial and economic ramifications of implementing a program like this," Sundquist said, and the resultsare expected in December or January. If the survey results show enough interest â€¢ in Universal Yearof Action's concepts, a pilot program may begin shortly thereafter in King County. Volunteers could work in any number of fields, including care for the aging, consumer p r o t e c t i o n , environmental cleanup and preservation, parole and probation services, tutoring, restoration of urban areas, aid to" the poor,police and fire a s s i s t a n c e and park development. Participants would receive a subsistenceallowance, perhaps $2,400 a year, plus benefits, Sundquist said. Planners of the program see benefitsto the country beyond the alleviation of many of its social problems, including reduction ofunemployment by deferring the entry of large numbers of young people into the job market. They alsoforesee possible reductions of welfare payments and crime as the direct and indirect results of theproposed program. And for the participants, Sundquist said, the period of voluntary service would givethem a chance to apply textbook theory to the real world and its problems. It would also give them moretime to find out where they are and where they're going before plunging into a regular full-time job or intocollege. Sundquist said the response to the program as he has talked to schools and organizationsthroughout the state has been "tremendous." "Young people are really hungry for this kind of programand involvement," he said. Gays open doors to straights by RICHARD ROFF Gay People's Alliance isreaching out. Created to dispell the notion that being "queer" is sick, the organization is opening itsdoors to anyone, straight or gay, who wants to come down and talk. "This is because more than half ofwhat we are doing is educating people," Rich Nagy, new G.P.A. coordinator, said. "The rest is so thatgays can meet gays on campus instead of behind locked doors and instill confidence in themselves."Getting all people involved is indeed the major ,campaign, since society's rejection of the gay person hasdone only harm, Nagy said. "Gays, from the time they are born until they are out of high school, messthemselves up by jeing something they're not," Nagy said. "Then, they start meeting their own peopleand begin developing self pride." There are many suicides because gay people are what they are, andbecause they are shunned by so many, Nagy pointed out. Sometimes it's not even known that theperson was gay. The first thing you should do, according to Nagy, is let yourself know and be proud of it. "Often," says Nagy, "the people who protest the loudest, are most insecure in their own sexuality.Outside they're straight, but deep down inside they have gay feelings they do not want to deal with."These same people are the "big butchies" when confronted with or approached by the gay. Even theChristian religion rejects the gay person, Hagy says. To combat this, the Metropolitan CommunityChurch, founded by a gentleman named Troy Perry, has become internationally known through itsincreasing popularity. Society rejects you as a "faggot," your parents reject you as "queer," and evenGod rejects you as "unorthodox," he said. What's left? The inevitable. You kill yourself. A few of the"open door" plans for this year's activities are several dances, a drag show, speaking in education,sociology and psychology classes and participation in a march to Olympia. The march, probably thebiggest event, will be to abolish the sodomy laws. "The penalty for anal intercourse, no matter who doesit, is more than that for rape, says Nagy. And that, along with child molestation, is a heterosexualproblem, not homosexual. Drug info has new coordinator The drug information center has returned to theViking Union from the Rising Sun with a new coordinator, Chris Wright. The drug information office hasthe duty to collect information and present it to the college population, Wright said. The agency alsotries to fund out if certain drugs rumored to be dangerous are in the area. Wright said his job is not toencourage or discourage anyone towards drugs, his is only an information-giving agency. "I'm not goingto go out and recruit people away from drugs," he said. "Drugs are the same as the heavy Christianmovement on campus, they're just something you can get into." The office plans to work more with theRising Sun this year, he said. The volunteers in our office might train with the Rusing Sun's people andalso the Sun's flying squad will work closely with our agency. Wright said his biggest problems will beto identify drugs. Right now he goes through a book and identifies drugs through their symptoms. "Itwould be nice to have a drop-off center," he said. This would be a place for people to bring a drug if theywanted to know what it would do to them before they took it. But it would be illegal for the office tohandle this, so it would be necessary to go through the police department, and the Bellingham policelack the funding to handle this. The officer will also use graduate students in clinical psychology ifpeople want them, Wright said. f Hitchhiking foes warn: Some hitchhikers have hidden motives by SUEGAWRYS Legalized hitchhiking has recently come under attack by a women's political group and statelaw enforcement agencies. The National Association of Pro-America, a women's political groupdedicated to preserving the spirit of the American government and the constitution, and" fighting apathyand ignorance of Americans, began a- petition drive to make hitchhiking illegal once more. Initiative 45would reverse the law which went into effect last May, making hitchhiking illegal and also would prohibitdrivers from picking up hitchhikers. Mildred Trantow, president of the Washington State chapter of Pro-America, said that her group opposes the hitchhiking law because "it is hazardous to both the safety ofthe hitchhiker and the driver." Mrs. Trantow predicts that her group will collect the required 101,229signatures by December. "Everyone we talk to is opposed to it," she said. If the required number ofsignatures is obtained, the petition would go to the winter 1973 legislative session. If the legislature failsto act on it, the initiative would be placed on the ballot for the statewide 1974 election. Sergeant HarlanRitter, safety education officer of the Washington State Patrol district office in Everett (which handlesBellingham), said that his agency is concerned about hitchhiking. "It is a real problem," Ritter said. Hismain concern is the danger factor of hitchhiking. With the poor visibility and early darkness at this time of the year, Ritter said that drivers can't easily see hitchhikers. Since May, there have been three trafficfatalities as a result of hitchhiking, Ritter said. He said that the ride stations, places where people whoneed rides could wait, are a good idea. His office is also concerned about elementary age children whoare hitchhiking, some to and from school. The state patrol tries to discourage this by talking with thechildren, but it is legal, he pointed out. The arrest ratio is down for hitchhiking since May, but the Everett office, which runs a check on each person hitching in a limited access area, has come up with somestatistics. What is this man hiding? Thorn Schultz photo Since the bill went into effect, 68 people whowere wanted by police have been picked up by hitchhiking illegally. By state patrol officers: 2 wanted forrobbery 3 wanted for burglary 1 wanted for kidnaping 1 wanted for rape 1 armed 24 runaways 10wanted for possession of controlled substances 1 mental hospital escapee 6 AWOLs 1 wanted forparole violations 7 prison escapees 1 wanted for auto theft 3 wanted for assault 2 wanted for stolenproperty. By local enforcement officers: 4 wanted for assault with deadly weapons 1 wanted for indecentliberties 5 wanted for robbery with assault 4 wanted for rapes 6 wanted for robberies 1 wanted for stolenproperty 2 wanted for attempted assault 2 wanted for vehicle damage 1 wanted for auto theft 1 wantedfor kidnapping and sexual assault. No total figures are available on how many people have been pickedup for hitchhiking illegally at this time. Ritter also noted that out-of-state people who hitchhike often areleft off on a freeway and are puzzled to find that hitching is not legal there. The Seattle police departmentsurvey, from May to September, showed that there were 59 criminal offenses related to hitchhiking, 43per cent of them sex offenses. Of the sex offenses, all the victims were women, involving either rape,molesting or exposing. Seventeen per cent of the offenses were robberies, the survey showed. Sincethere were no statistics comparing offenses related to hitchhiking before the law went into effect, orestimations of the number of hitchhikers on the road now or then, there is no basis for comparison at this time. Meanwhile, hitchhiking appears to be here to stay. ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 10 - Page 8 ---------- 8 Western'Front Tuesday, October. 10, 1972 ^ C = Â« o ^ 4-CHANNEL SOUND from 189* K FREEPARKING Â£.

Last Spring five of its 12-member committee were picked bycomputer "at random" to represent the Associated Students on the committee. But when the committeemet during the summer, none of the AS representatives, showed up and none were enrolled summerquarter. Still this fall, the "lost" students have not been found. Scrapping the computer selection method, the committee appointed committeepersons Kay Burke and Dean of Students Clyde "Bill" McDonald torecommend requirements for new AS representatives. CSC formulates policy regarding non-academicareas and recommends to the College Senate. Eventually it will deal with budgeting. Because CSC willdeal with budgets and issues of magnitude, the members of this committee, as Dean McDonald put it,"have to be dedicated and knowledgeable." Dean McDonald and Burke also will work out preliminaryplans for restructuring the CSC. As it exists, the CSC has input from 12 separate areas, some of whichthey believe are closely related. Their plan is to incorporate these areas as much as possible andeliminate at least one, so as to have only four or five areas of input. For example, the athletic, music,forensic, business and science departments would be incorporated under one title called DepartmentalRelated Committee. This group would be a single committee input to the CSC. It could consist of 10representatives, one faculty and one student from each department. Dean McDonald suggested that theHousing and Dining Office be eliminated from CSC and put under Auxiliary Enterprises control because it usually involves only financial requests. Another regrouping might combine internal publications,bookstore and AS services committees into one. However, no action can begin in that area beforeclarification of the legal status of the Co-op Bookstore on campus. This is expected next Thursday.Burke and Dean McDonald will make recommendations next week. CSC will meet every Wednesday at 4 p.m. in the Dean of Students Office. Sanitary landfill proposal ok'd for Whatcom County WhatcomCounty is taking steps toward a sanitary landfill, coupled with recycling and composting for disposal ofgarbage in the future. The county Council of Governments gave consulting firm, Jepson Associates,the approval to find suitable land to develop a fill.

The council picked the third Machine replaces listing Looking for information on a friend's class schedule?

The fill site property would be owned by the county, howeverequipment at the site and operation would be handled by private industry. If the county would decide tochange disposal choices, it could sell the land or add on to existing machinery. The landfill planincorporates home sorting of magazines and newspaper for recycling by civic groups or private industry. Short pointed out that civic groups could make use of spare time and make money at taking onrecycling projects. Paper or cardboard could go to Georgia-Pacific if no other place was receptive to theplan. Composting, instead of throwing away biodegradable materials, will be urged, he said.

Com-Tech Enterprises is a conference courseoffered jointly by the economics and business department and the technology department. It is aimed at designing or improving, producing and marketing a product or service by the class. The students fromthe tech department will design and produce the product, while those from the business department willhave the job of selling. Eighteen students are getting six credits per quarter for the project. Com-Tech is trying a "non-rip-off approach" in that it is not following what Com-Tech general manager Lou Youngcalled "downtown practices." "Making money is not our most important objective," Young said. Theproject is financially independent from Western. The only assistance it receives from the college is twoadvisers, Robert Patton from the business department and Michael Bjur of the technology department.Ideas for raising initial capital are also encouraged by Com-Tech. Hoping to establish a self-sufficiantbusiness not c o n n e c t e d to Western, Com-Tech plans to incorporate. The project, which startedthis quarter, is slated to finish spring quarter.

Work study offers jobs Need money to goto school, but don't want a straight-out loan or grant? Do you want to work your way partially throughcollege? The work - study program might be an answer. The work study program, under the supervisionof the financial aids office, provides jobs for a number of students, on-and-off-campus and in public a n d private non-profit organizations. "Work study provides the student with worthwhile and m e a n i n g f u l experience, hopefully related to his interests or major," Wayne Sparks, assistant financial director,said. To qualify for work study, a student must have a financial need, which is based on the low incomeor size of his family. The student must also be capable (in the opinion of the institution) of maintaining a good standing. He must not be on probation. Also, he must be accepted for enrollment as a full-timestudent. The financial aids office is allocated a certain amount of money for each academic year. Before the beginning of fall quarter, each department is contacted to see what kinds of students it wants, suchas clerical, laboratory assistants and art students. The student submits an "interest sheet," detailinghis major, past experience and job perferences. The financial aids office then tries to match up thestudent with his choice of jobs.

The contracts are usually yearly, unless the student leaves school or falls b e l o w the academic requirements.' Work study jobs are offered in just about every instructional department. In addition, students find work at the StudentInformation Center, Legal Aids, Black Student Union, Art Gallery, Bellingham Day Care Center and thecustodial department. Sparks said that if all the work study money is committed for a quarter, a studentwho is eligible will be considered for other types of financial aid. Women working for rights Women'sCommission, Western's arm of the feminist movement, is working with local groups for the passage ofthe Equal Rights Amendment, Denise Guren of the commission said last Tuesday. Plans for futurecommission activities involve a report on the status of women at Western, a symposium with ShirleyChisholm participating and a symposium on careers for women. "Most women face a conflict betweenhome and career," Guren said. She also said it is a problem for women to be in an academic situationwhich is male oriented and that the commission is concerned about what can be done to. solve theseproblems.. . **" n 1 up**' The Student Cooperative brings you TWO great book sales in one!Remainder Sale.

The Student Cooperative Bookstore ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 10 - Page 10 ---------- TO Western.Front Tuesday, October 10, 1972 Restructured English requirements allow majors newplanning freedom Requirements for English majors have been extensively restructured to offer studentsmore freedom and choice in planning their own majors. All English majors are requested to contactKnute Skinner, director of undergraduate studies in English, HU 309, to be assigned a faculty advisor.Skinner, along with Robert McDonnell, chairman of the department, spoke to a group of more than 150students last week, explaining the differences between the old major and the new one. McDonnell saidthe old English major was the type found in most other English departments across the country, whichcame into vogue 12 to 15 years ago at a time when most English majors were preparing either forpostgraduate work or for teaching. They needed a solid background in the history of literature andfamiliarity with at least one foreign language. But that is no longer the case with most undergraduates,and the English department realizes the need for diversification to match the less tightly structuredmajors in the other liberal arts. The changes in the arts and sciences major involve increasing therequired number of credits from 60 to 70, dropping the 24 credit foreign language requirement andallowing up to 12 credits in courses outside the department. McDonnell stressed that these 12 creditsare to be taken under departmental advisement and should be "closely and clearly related to the study of English, courses that will reinforce the study of literature." The changes in the education major involveincreasing the number of required credits for secondary education from 45 to 55. The number of requiredcredits for elementary education remains at 45. The restructuring has also resulted in far fewer specificcourse requirements. The number of required courses has dropped to six: three introductory courses,English 301, 302, 303 (under the old catalog, 261, 262, 263), and three history of literature courses of the student's choice. Beyond that the student is free to work out his own major with his faculty advisor. Any student who declared his major under the old catalog now has the option of choosing to remain underthe old major or to follow the new one. "Those who want to go to grad school will probably want to staywith the old major system," McDonnell stated. The English department has printed a guide for Englishmajors and minors which explains in great detail the new system, and English majors, minors and otherinterested persons may pick up a copy in the English department office, third floor, Humanities Building,or in HU 309. All transfer students in English who have not yet had their transfer credits evaluated, juniors who have not yet declared a major and seniors who have not yet had a senior evaluation are alsorequested to contact Skinner as soon as possible. V. Pamphlet explains complex issues WhenNovember 7th comes around, Washington Secretary of State A. Ludlow Kramer hopes that greyhoundracing, litter control and licensed liquor retailers won't bring blank stares from voters. To insure that therecord 24 state meausres on the Washington state ballot are familiar to voters, Kramer and his officehave prepared a voter's pamphlet, which is being sent to every household in the state. The pamphletexplains each initiative, referendum and senate and house joint resolution in brief and gives full wording of the measure, provides statements for and against the measure and gives the present law and how it willbe affected if the measure passes. Some of the more controversial measures include sex equality,campaign finance disclosure, greyhound racing, authorization of lotteries, shoreline management andretail liquor sales. Voters are also provided with a check list, where choices can be marked to speed upthe time in the booth, as only two minutes are allowed for voting. The vook also maps out legislative and congressional districts, and provides a form to send for an absentee ballot. If more inforamtion is needed, a toll-free line has been set up to deal with questions on the measures: 1-800-562-6020, open 9 a.m. to5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Speakers on any measure can also be obtained through this number.Wftat V ft?

As alumni, many of them recent graduates, thevolunteers have a first-hand knowledge of Western that high school counselors and even members ofWestern's admissions staff may not have. Counselors and prospective students in their home areas willbe informed that these people are available to provide an extra personal touch in answering questionsabout the college. "Response from alumni to a request for assistance in counseling students wastremendous," Steve Inge said. "We had many more volunteers than we could accommodate in the one-day session we had planned. As the year progresses, we hope to be in touch with a number of thepeople we unfortunately had to turn down and will bring them into the program as the need arises." Year for Action gets federal grant University Year for Action (UYA) has received a $117,000 grant from the.federal government to continue its work with local anti-poverty agencies. The grant is approximately$70,000 below last .year's budget, but this drop will not lead to a cutback in the work of the program,says Bruce Harris, UYA field representative. The program, which offers a chance for students to earncollege credit for their work in the community, this year has designed a number of academic programs in the Continuing Studies department. The programs will require the student and professor to sign acontract which Harris hopes will lead to a mutual sense of academic responsibility between student andprofessor for the independent; study classes.. â€¢ - New registration procedure mokes class changes'smooth' A new registration procedure, combined with a new method of making class changes, helpedregistration run more smoothly than in past years, associate registrar Robert Thirsk said. Thirsk saidthat reasons why the registration procedures were changed this quarter were: 1) A more efficient system would reduce registration from seven to three days. 2) To provide new students with a good firstexperience by providing the departmental s e r v i c e s necessary for registration. 3) To reduce thenumber of schedule changes that occur after fall quarter begins. The new system makes it easier forstudents to obtain Gravel-haulers needed on hill Students are needed to help build trails for the Sehome Hill Arboretum while the weather still permits. J o y Krell, arboretum coordinator, said people who canhandle wheel barrows of gravel are needed on the hill. There is no supervisor for the trail building at thistime, although during the summer one work-study student worked on building trails. Mrs. Kress saidshe would like four people per hour working on the trail. Workers are volunteers and receive no pay.Both college and high school students should get involved in the arboretum, she said. She would alsoappreciate comments from students. One of her goals is to "encourage respect" for the beauty onSehome Hill. She also said she would be willing to give anyone a tour of the hill. Any volunteers orconcerned persons can contact her at High Street'Hall 45/.:. . v \ v . \ : . \\ permission for entering filledclasses, receiving assistance in advisement and getting general information regarding specificdepartments or majors, Thirsk said. However, it remains to be seen whether the new system will beincorporated into future registration procedures. "If we were to use this system we would save money,provide the student with better services and eliminate many class changes," he said. Campaign set tobeat bushes S t r i v i n g for more personalized contact with high school students, the AdmissionsOffice is now engaged in a multi-level campaign to publicize Western all over the state. Eugene Omeyand Richard Riehl, director and assistant director of the Admissions Office, are alternating weeks on the road in an effort to, in Riehl's words, "get out and beat the bushes." This is the third week of the drive,which should cover much of the state by early November. Supplementing the usual output of informationthis year are three new activities. Follow-up letters are being sent to students for the first time, invitingthem to visit Bellingham. Recent Western alumni, totalling some 150, are serving as admissionsrepresentatives in their home locales this year. These graduates were brought together for instructionSept. 15. They'll call high school students and offer their guidance and advice. Admissions officers havealso sent out 12 copies of a 20-minute color film on Western, done by Rich Chase. "We're getting some very positive feedback on it," Riehl commented. ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 10 - Page 11 ---------- Tuesday, October 10, 1972 Western Front 11 Long files protest Viks upset 15-13 by KENTSHERWOOD An official protest has been filed by Western football coach Boyde Long in the wake ofSaturday's 15-13 upset loss to Eastern Oregon College (EOC) in La Grande, Ore. However, at best theprotest would probably only regulate the game to a "non-contest" status, as if the game were neverplayed at all, leaving the Vikings in desperate need of half a dozen miracles if they are to have anychance at all of retaining their falling Evergreen Conference championship. The protest came as a resultof a play that might have set up the winning score for Western at the EOC five-yard line. With the Vikstrailing 15-13, and just over three minutes to play, quarterback Marshall Torre passed 21 yards to flanker Cecil Simms who caught the ball at the Mountaineer five with one foot in bounds and one foot out ofbounds. The umpire immediately signalled a legally completed pass, but the referee nullified that call,saying it was incomplete because Simms did not have both feet -in bounds. The referee made it clearthat was the reason for the "incompletion." However, under NAIA rules, which govern Evco play, areceiver need only have one foot in bounds to make it a legal reception. Long has filed the protest withthe league's secretary, Jack Douglas, of Oregon Tech. Since budgets and schedules would most likelyprohibit a rematch, the results would probably just be dropped from Evco standings, if the protest isgranted. As it stands, the game was Western's third straight setback without a victory in a year thatsaw the Viks as clear favorites for a second consecutive Evco crown. The Big Blue started the game asif it had finally got untracked after opening losses to Pacific (28-13) and Central (28-14). Western turnedan EOC fumble into a 57-yard scoring drive, which climaxed in seven plays with Steve Skogmo scoringaround right end. Jay Overway's point after attempt was blocked leaving Western with a 6-0 lead with12:50 left in the first quarter. Midway in the second quarter, the Mounties punted to their own 46. TheViks turned that into a 46-yard, 10 play scoring drive. The key play was a 23-yard pass from Torre toHaight. Tom Wigg, Western's all-time leading rusher, scored from three yards out and Overway's kickgave Western a 13-0 halftime lead. Overway just missed a 30-yard field goal in the first half which waslong enough, but slightly wide to the left. Harriers win again Western's cross country squad returnedfrom La Grande, Ore., with its second straight dual meet victory with a nearly perfect 15-49 win overEastern Oregon College (EOC), low score winning. Mike Shaw, a Western senior, placed first, runningthe four-mile course in 20:30. He was followed, respectively, by Fred New (20:56), Bill Rathvon (21:10),Tom Duncan (21:18) and Russ Fuller (21:36). Andy Herstrom finished sixth in 22:06, but in crosscountry a team can enter only seven runners, and only the first five of each team score. CarlosMontgomery ruined the Viks' bid for a perfect 15-50 score by finishing seventh in 22:25, just ahead ofWestern's last runner, Mike Cowan, who was timed in 22:33. The last six runners were all Mounties,crossing the finish line in times ranging from 22:50 to 27:58. Volleyballers use multiple offense Thewomen's varsity volleyball team should be one of the top contenders in the state this year according tothe coach Miss Lynda Goodrich. The team has switched from the traditional four spiker-two setteroffense to a new multiple offense which uses only one setter to get maximum use of the five spikers."The girls have improved a lot," Miss Goodrich said. "The skill level is probably the highest Western hasever had." The six returning varsity players from last year's team which finished third in the state are:Elaine Budnik, Margaret Roti, Christie Carder, Kathy Dooley, Carol Cassidy and Sherry Stripling.Western plays its first match of the season on Oct. 14, at Central . In cross country, a runner scoresthe same number of points as the place he finishes. The first place runner scores one point, the secondplace runner two, and so on, up to a team's limited number of five scoring runners. However, a non-scoring runner still holds his place and his points are kept from the opposition. Last week Westerndefeated Puget Sound 17-42. Coach Dick Bowman's harriers will prepare this week for a dual meetSaturday with Pacific Lutheran University. The race will be held at â€¢ 11 a.m. at Bellingham's CornwallPark. Eastern Oregon scored in the third period on a one yard run by quarterback Mike White, with thefollowing point after by Eugene Schmidt. The Mounties marched 73 yards in 11 plays, all on the ground. In the fourth quarter, EOC marched 79 yards in 13 plays, with the help of a pass interference and twooffside penalties against Western. White again scored from a yard out to tie the game at 13-13. On thecritical conversion attempt, the centers snap was bad and White, the holder, scrambled and evadedViking tacklers before passing complete to Dennis Lawrence for the game winning points. The drive with the protested call followed. On Torre's next play following the controversial call, the Belmont, Cal.,senior threw his third interception of the day to end Western comeback hopes. Torre finished the gamewith five completions in 20 attempts for 101 yards and the three interceptions. Wigg rushed for 89 yards in 17 carries, but had 72 of those in the first half. Penalties again wounded the Viks as Western wascalled for 103 yards worth of infractions on 10 plays. EOC was penalized for 41 yards on five calls.White was seven of 13 in the air, for 55 yards, with no interceptions. Overway punted twice for a 39.5yard average to out-distance last year's All-Evco punter Max Goin of EOC. Goin averaged 34.1 yards onten punts. The Viks will try again to break into the win column Saturday with a non-conference clashwith Portland State at Civic Stadium. WESTERN Eastern Ore. WW-Skogmo blocked) 6 7 0 0 0 7 1-yd.

The group, which is from the San Francisco Bay area, performssongs that deal with modern conflictsâ€”sexism, racism and political oppression. Michael Margulis, thegroup's bass player, said he was surprised at the warmth of the reception-particularly at Toad Hall-because he said the group had been told that they would be facing a "very apolitical" audience. "Somany people dying for Standard Oil Now their slimy plans, â€¢ think we'd better spoil. Now I hate warlike I hate death But I need my freedom like I need every breath." -from "Pig Nixon" Margulis said thatthe group tends to feel "paranoid" and expect the worst of an audience. Gary Lapow, guitarist, said thatthis is because the music that the group performs is of a controversial nature. Singer Bonnie Lockhartsaid that the group usually plays to audiences that are already sympathetic to the group's message. She feels that this constitutes "entertaining the troups" and she would like to see the group occasionallymove away from that. "The only thing, my sisters, we done wrong: Stayed at home and kept house alittle bit too long. But now you know and I feel it, my sister's gettin' on, And when we do, pig power ain't gonna last too long." â€”from "Pig Nixon" The singers came to Bellingham during the first road trip oftheir one-year existence.

"We're going to have to operate with financialconstraints like we've never been faced with before," Goltz said. The budget to be submitted to the state has already been reduced once. According to the projections made last June, $52 million was to bebudgeted for the 1971-73 biennium. In late August the Board of Trustees sliced the budget to $36.9million in light of the worsening state financial situation. "We have now been informally advised by theOlympia Office of Program Planning and Physical Management that funding is going to be furtherlimited," Goltz stated. Governor Evans' final decision on Western's budget is expected by December 15.The budget must then go through the state legislature in January. Several.. factors produce a ratherbleak outlook for approval of the entire $36.9 million budget, in Goltz's opinion. "Financial problems in the state are very, very real," he said. The student unrest and violence in the past year could also have anadverse effect on legislative approval of the budget, according to Goltz. Inability to place many graduates has also had a negative influence on attitudes toward education, he said. If the present budget doesn'tgo through the legislature intact, the situation "is going to be critical," in Goltz's estimation. Budget cuts will necessarily restrict building projects and further curtail growth of student enrollment. The Augustbudget cut made by the Board of Trustees has set expansion back a year. According to the plan formedfor the June budget of $52 million, Western could accommodate 14,150 full-time students by 1975. Therevised budget extends to 1976 and reduces enrollment to 14,070. "The next likelihood is that wc won'tbe able to take 14,070," Goltz said. "However, Western stands to fare better in the future than otherstate colleges. "Due to the reputation Western has established in some fields such as e n v i r o n m en t a l sciences and technology we are more likely to get funds," he said. Another positive considerationis the plan Western has projected for future growth which allows great flexibility". These factors affordWestern an edge over the other state colleges, he concluded. Veterans League Seeks MembersWestern's League of Veterans is looking for membership applicants, according to Interim President DonDeMarco. The club will meet Thursday; time and place will be announced later in the activities bulletin.DeMarco said the organization is designed as a service club for all veterans. The group will work forincreased veterans' benefits, a state bonus and one year free tuition for veterans, he said. The League of Veterans was conceived last Spring quarter to "give veterans a voice in Olympia," organizers said. "We intend to lobby in Olympia for legislation of concern to veterans," DeMarco said last week. According toDeMarco, some businessmen downtown have agreed to give employment preference to graduatingveterans. By JOHN STOLPE IN CASE OF CLASS RIOT, READ THIS: The college provost has sent thefollowing amusing instructions to the faculty on handling possible class disruptions on campus: 1. . . .Use persuasion and common sense arguments in an effort to terminate the disruption. If this doesn't work, then . . . . 2. Read this statement verbatim: "I am of the â€” â€” Department of Western WashingtonState College and am authorized by the President of the College to notify you that your continuingpresence here is in violation of the College Code of Conduct regarding demonstrations and Chapter 98,Laws of 1970, Revised Code of Washington in that you are interfering with me in the peaceful discharge of my duties. Further, you may be in violation of Chapter 7, Laws of 1969, Revised Code of Washington.You must leave this room now." 3. If the disruption does not end, repeat the warning. 4. If the disruptorsdo not leave, attempt to get their names and to identify them, as well as others who are witnesses to theevent. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PUT THEM OUT BODILY AND DO NOT TRY TO PUT THEM UNDER A"CITIZEN'S ARREST." Then dismiss the class, indicating that you are obliged to dismiss them because of the interruption. Leave the room. 5. Immediately telephone the security office and report the incident.After you have orally reported the event, write up the incident in a memo to the security office with a copy to your department chairman, academic dean, dean of students, and the provost, giving the names, andaddresses, where possible, of disruptors and witnesses. The Muckraker is suddenly reminded of theyoung lieutenant in Vietnam who once told the men in his platoon: "Please guys, don't get yourself shotto death out there. You couldn't believe the forms your lieutenant would have to fill out!" OUR PECULIARPRESIDENTIAL PROBE CONTINUES: Wc are making substantial gains in our effort to unravel themounting mysterious firing of College President C. H. Fisher in 1939. So far, our investigation has led tothe very steps of the Governor's Mansion. Friday's Muckraker will finally reveal the fruits of our findings. Do join us. An offshoot of the "Woodstock Nation," known as the "Quarter Moon Tribe," has claimed creditfor the bombing of the University of Washington ROTC building last Thursday. Friday, the Seattle Timesreceived a special-delivery letter in which the group admitted placing the estimated 15 to 20 sticks ofdynamite which caused between $100,000 and $150,000 in damages to Clark Hall. Excerpt from theletter: "We intend to disarm, dismatle, disable and destroy the military and pig might of Amerikawherever we are, however we can." The Quarter Moon Tribe tied the bombing to earlier occurrences ofviolence on university campuses. "Ever since our sisters and brothers fell at Jackson and Kent State noone needs to be told that c a m p u s e s e v e r y w h e r e are battlegrounds-two days before the ByRON GRAHAM National Guard fired on them, kids at Kent State burnt the ROTC building to the ground." "We are offering the ROTC building here after three years of struggle to rid U. of W. of this bit ofimperialist war machinery. No longer will the death culture freely use campuses as bases forimperialism." Seattle Mayor Wes Uhlman said that bombers are criminals, not protestors, and will betreated accordingly.

Myns Mangle Mind By JILL KREMEN Thevisual arts media has been much the same ever since sound and color came to the movies. Finallysomething new has been conceived: Myn's Eye, the group that performed at Fairhaven Saturday night.Rick Chace, Dennis Peterson and John Hall have added a new facet to photography and the visualexperience. Their aim is to create a feeling, a headiness and they succeed. One of them described it asa warm hug, a cuddly feeling that embraces each person and allows him to get involved with the show.They have something in their heads that comes out in their actions which makes creativity. The Myn'sEye personality came out when 1 talked to them. Rick, Dennis and John are uninhibited so they createas they live. It might involve a picture taking session where they are on the other end of the camera, orjust rapping with people. They entertain and involve as they live. The aim of the visual music show is tocause an involvement of everyone who watches. The group stresses the thought and feeling of the music they work with more than the rhythm. In this way more people become more involved with their wholeenvironment. A sense of being is emphasized by the Myn's Eye. Myns Eye A Life Show By JIMDIEDRICK It is not a light show, but a life show. As the Seattle Times movie critic John Hartl said, it ismore than "colored goo and bubbles' Much more.

Bodies laying on the carpet of Fairhaven's auditorium squirm and stretch. Voices musethe first half of the "visual music." I recall a quote from Freddy Stone, member of Sly and the FamilyStone: "Life. It melts in your mind." The screen is alive again. The second half is a visual quest forharmony and love through Key points in the bill: 1. reaffirmation of death as the maximum penalty forbombings resulting in a fatality. 2. wiretapping under court order is permissable if criminal use ofexplosives is suspected. 3. damage or destruction by explosives of any federal property or any federally-funded institution is a federal crime. This would give the FBI virtually free access to many campuses ifany of their property is damaged in a bombing, according to a staff aide of the Senate JudiciaryCommittee. At present, the FBI can only investigate if the explosives used are believed to have beentransported in interstate commerce. FBI Caught Napping by New Left ( D i s p a t c h News Service)WASHINGTON-The FBI is not waiting for more money or congressional approval to investigate studentunrest. Its agents are already on campuses. The evidence indicates the FBI, because of miscalculationand its usually myopic view of radicalism, is struggling desperately to catch up with developments in thestudent left.. When FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, with support from President Nixon, asked for 1000new agents for use in cases of campus violence, the back to school movement among the feds hadalready begun. In the last six months the FBI has quietly created "new left desks" in its officesthroughout the country, concentrating in areas which are near activist campuses. Last spring a specialcontingent of FBI agents infiltrated Yale on behalf of a student strike and Black Panther leaders thencoming to trial in New Haven. They were there before and during the May Day demonstrations. And atvirtually every march (including the Vietnam Moratorium's candlelight procession past the White Houselast fall), FBI agents, some of whom posed as newsmen, have taken pictures of demonstrators. Despitethese efforts, the FBI has been unprepared for the explosive changes in the radical movement. And ithas been unable to make much of a dent in the growing underground. The clandestine routes to Canada and elsewhere for activists and draft dodgers are intact. Most of the Weathermen who slipped out ofsight around the first of this year have remained in this country, traveling undetected. And the fourmembers of the New Year's Gang, who claim responsibility for the University of Wisconsin bombing,have apparently succeeded in fleeing the country. Many of the fugitives figure they'll eventually becaught-because of accident or an informer. But they (continued on page 3) nature, a hymn to the wonder of man.

"AWS is atotally non-relevant organization because it does not relate to the needs of women on campus and it isnot a service to them. Instead of worrying about dances, worry about college girls and their problems,"Miss Teofanov said. FBI cont'd . . . have succeeded in one of their missions-demonstrating that it is notdifficult to remain underground in this country, eluding capture. Ironically, some criticism for the FBI'sfailures has come from its friends on congressional internal security committees and among local andstate police. There is the old complaint from local police that the FBI eagerly takes their information andgives none in return. In the Wisconsin bombing â€¢ case, for example,- local police twice arrested thesuspects (on routine traffic investigations) but let them go because the FBI didn't tell anyone they werewanted. More important, in the opinion of sophisticated police observers of the radical movement (thereare a few) the FBI has spent so many years, infiltrating and watching the old left it has no idea where the new left is at. It was relatively easy for the FBI to understand the old left, meaning the CommunistParty, and to By DEBBIE HUDSON Miss Teofanov suggested three things that would be of help andservice to women students. One would be to set up sensitivity sessions in dorms, for women only, where women can get to know one another as sisters, and not as competition, according to Miss Teofanov.Another., proposal was the maintaining of a 24-hour crisis service for women only, and their particularproblems. The third recommendation was to establish a grievance -committee where any woman whofeels she is being discriminated against or intimidated can go for intermediary action. Miss Teofanovstressed that women are needed to help set up these sessions and committees. She also emphasizedfhat_ it was important for AWS to function where women can. get together and relate to one another. Itis an organization specifically for women and it should become positive and forceful;she said. infiltrate its ranks with informers and agents over 30. And during the height of the Cold War and the anti-communistprograms, it was also easy to frighten party members and sympathizers into working for the FBI. But. itis not so easy to frighten or red-bait the young, and find agents and informers youthful enough to infiltrate today's radical groups, especially as they become tighter and more disciplined. Also the PBI's old,monolithic view of the left (which it got from . the Communist Party and swallowed whole), has made itunable to discenv important strategic differences among the organizations of the new left. In its 1968report, for example, the FBI commented on the claim of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) thatthey were "a brand apart from those in the old-line communist movement." "While the distinction mayseem important to them, it is irrelevant to the rest of America because the basic objective of both NewLeft and old-line communists and their adherents in our society is to completely destroy our form ofgovernment." Hoover's report said. â€¢As a result of this sort of analysis, during 1965-69 the FBIconcentrated on the American Communist Party's attempts to influence the course of the moderate andradical new left, rather than on the left's search for its own direction and tactics. Thus, the federalgovernment misunderstood the post-mobilization silence of the anti-war youth and caught hell whenCambodia was invaded. And the FBI*, which was getting its information from the Communist Party andthe Progressive Labor (PL) faction of SDS, was as confounded as the old-line communists and PL whenWeathermen split, took over SDS, effectively shut informers and agents out of their tight collectives' andwent underground. The Loneliest Guy in Town And you always thought washing machine repairmenwere the loneliest guys in town? Compared to the campus barber shop, repairmen are having a booming year. For barbers it has been "a bad year" for the past two or three years; and unless there's anoutbreak of ringworm, or crewcuts, the Bop, and white sweatsocks come into fashion again, the futurelooks glum for these men in white. Still, campus shop manager Bob Unruh is pretty optimistic,considering he has a family to feed. " S t y l e s change," Unruh By STEVE JOHNSTON understated ashe watched long hairs pass by. "When I came here in '59 short hair was the big thing." Part of the shop's problems is that few students even know it's there. There isn't the traditional striped pole and beingshoved off into a corner of VU plaza doesn't help either. Still, even if the shop has flashing signs, it'sdoubtful business would improve. Men just aren't having their hair cut as often. "Sometimes a guy will go for months between haircuts," Unruh said. With the longer styles men can have their hair trimmed athome. 4* * * * * * * * * TT * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * the student owners of The Wed presentBellingham's most unique tavern : Che f)0p (antique) * * 1112 Cornwall I E * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** * * * * * * * * 733-0201 owned and operated by students The number of barber shops going out ofbusiness is quite high, according to Unruh. The hardest hit, are campus barber shops which charge astandard $2.75 a clip. Now, shops are beginning to specialize in hair styling. Unruh said this wouldn't bepractical for his shop because "students just can't afford the $7 to $10 price." Unruh believes studentswith long hair keep away from his shop from fear of being clipped to the bone. But he said that he cutshair exactly as he is directed. Unruh feels no resentment toward the longer style which is drying up hisbusiness.

Apparently some sophomore has decided .thatdemocracy will not work, and neither Thoreau's nor Ghandi's methods are successful against the massive machinery of "The System," whatever that is. Maybe they just realize that they as persons don't fit into our society and want to strike back bacause they no, longer feel like individuals. Then by all meansthey should do so. This is still a democracy and they have more freedom to do so than in the non-democracy of their choice. They can even make their revolution just as Robespierre once did. (He is an e x c e l l e n t model for a revolutionary. He reached the pinnacles of fame and power by toppling anobsolete order, did he not?) He used his head to get where he was going. Well, our little Robespierres,few could wish for . more. And what better way to begin than with grafitti on a wall. Too bad so manyyoung revolutionaries get no. further. Too many are like a quarterback who is willing to hold the ball for afew seconds in the "pocket,".surrounded by linemen, but when they have to carry the ball themselves,they have weaker knees than Joe Namath. It's really a good thing that our few local revolutionaries(everybody should have one) are the kind that not only write on local walls. It's a good thing they plan tocarry on a revolution-where it counts, I hope-at the local ballot box next month. That would be reallyusing their heads. Jack C. Benedict English Editor: I must respond to an article appropriately entitled"Exploit What's Left" by Les Savitch. Trying to remain coherent enough to write after reading such anoutrageously ignorant appraisal of the current ecological movement is a task equaled only by an attempt to impute any altruistic motive whatsoever to Savitch's hyperbole. Savitch's article is an excellentexample of what the psychologist terms "projection." Throughout its course the article emasculates theecologist in a variety of ways. However, in every case f think the calumny used applies much morereadily to the type of ethic from which this article emerged. In reference to the ecologist's caveat of thenecessity to limit consumption, Savitch seems to conclude thai "Ecologists would cast us all in tl.esame mold as robots from the factory." On the contrary, only a robot programmed for destruction would,as Savitch urges, continue on the road man is now w o b b l i n g down. I d o n 't understand . . . . :Steve Wiley Political Science Editor: By the very definition of what the legislature is, it can then beacknowledged .that the legislature is only as effective as the executive branch (execute). It behooves me that Greg Baker continues to attack the legislature on' the grounds of being ineffective. The only realeffect of the legislature is to be a maker of policy, on which the president then has the power to veto. Ifthe route of veto is not utilized, the president then has the responsibility to execute the legislation. If this legislation is not executed effectively then the attacks of ineffectiveness should be waged against theexecutive branch, not the legislative branch. In the .previous paragraph, I stated that the only real powerof the legislature is a maker of policy. In effect, this is the case though it is contrary to nationalprecedents. Normally, the legislature is r e s p o n s i b l e for m o n ey appropriations, however, atpresent the legislature has authority over $5,000 which is less than eight per cent of the total studentgovernment budget, a budget that was developed by the present executive branch. If the legislature is infact petty, could it be as a direct result of the executive branch? Is it in the interests of AssociatedStudents to put 92 per cent of the student government budget into the hands of two electees and a hostof a p p o i n t e e s , or is it more representative to place the majority of student government funds intothe hands of the legislature.

GailDenton Special Elections Board Chairman Nixon Plays Peace Politics By DAVE President Nixon*sblatentiy political ploy in offering a negotiated cease fire in Indochina must not be viewed as a sincerepeace initiative. Rather, Nixon struck this writer as a desperate politician playing for the time he doesn'thave left. Well aware that Hanoi would reject his proposal almost immediately, Nixon was merely begging his constituency for more time with' the apparent "sincerity" of his proposal. With November electionsbreathing down the necks of his Republican cronies, Nixon waved the flag of peace over the majortelevision networks in the political hope of pacifying his hard-pressing war critics at home. Unfortunatelyhis proposal sounds completely sincere and is even possibly a workable cease-fire proposal, perfectlynegotiable were the Hanoi delegates in Paris willing to negotiate. Nixon was counting on his believableproposal not to convince Hanoi however, but to convince his tottering Silent Majority at home. Hanoi hasno intention of negotiating anything but a complete withdrawal of United States forces from SHERMANVietnam, and will accept a cease fire only on the basis it leads to that end. Time is on their side and time is fast running out for Nixon. The North'Vietnamese and the Liberation Front merely have to wait and they know it. President Nixon cannot wait. November elections are less than a month away, and he mustsoon begin his own campaign for reelection just a year from now., Knowing this Nixon is now beginning a campaign of peace, hoping and gambling that his proposals will suffice ,to pacify the electorate wherehis policies have failed. Hanoi has only to bide its time to win one of the biggest political upsets of thecentury. Nixon is merely postponing the inevitable defeat of United States policy and politics inIndochina. His stalling tactics must not be allowed to slow or halt the sincere Vietnam Peace movementin the country. Pressure must be redoubled in this election year and if necessary the next. The UnitedStates has nothing left to gain by stalling the inevitable withdrawal of troops from Indochina, and Nixonmust not be allowed to postpone it with his rhetoric. ---------- Western Front - 1970 October 13 - Page 5 ---------- Tuesday, October 13, 1970 Western Front 5 More Bombings Five bombings racked Rochester, N.Y., ina 10-minute period early yesterday morning.

Fencers Slash Out Spot In Viking Sports Program Intercollegiate sword play may come to Western. Greg Stock, president of the Fencing Club, reports that interest has been good and atournament may be held early in December. Stock hopes to hold an inter-school tournament eachquarter. Practices are being held each Thursday at 7 to 9 p.m. in Gym C for all interested students.Additional practices will be added when a competitive team is formed. The Fencing Club is arranging afencing demonstration which will be open to students and the community in several weeks. Leon Auriol,a master French fencer, will probably highlight the upcoming demonstrations. Presently teaching fencing at different colleges in the Seattle area, Auriol previously taught the Fencing Club for credit at Western. The club was first organized at Western during the Winter quarter of 1969. Western hosted a tournament during the Multi-Arts Festival last Spring quarter. Lack of equipment lias been a problem, according toStock. New equipment will be ordered using the club's $500 allocation. Another $100 is tabbed fortournament costs. r k. On a Saturday afternoon in 1958 four hungry University of Washington studentswere bemoaning the fact that it was impossible to get a good pizza in the 'district' One of the four (thehungriest one) concluded, "The only way we're going to get a good pizza is to make it ourselves." It wasalso concluded that they had no money, they knew nothing about restaurant business, and that theymust be out of their minds. Three months later Pizza Haven opened. In the meantime they begged andborrowed about $3,000, read all they could about restaurant management, made and ate approximately173 pizzas until they came up with a combination they would be proud to sell to their classmates. Soonpromising careers in psych, history, math and pre-law were interrupted by the less intellectual pursuits oftable waiting, dough-cutting and sausage slicing. Somehow they survived that first year and havemanaged to do enough things right that they have grown from the U. District to the campuses of 15 othercolleges and Universities in Washington. No longer can you sit on the hard, wooden picnic benches orfeel the oven blast in the small store on the 'Ave,' but you still can get the best pizza at the best priceclose to campus.

At present there are nine Spanish, 15French, four German and four Russian students living in the foreign language house at Fairhaven. Padget said the idea of a language house was a student idea and only became a reality when several studentswrote up a proposal to the Housing Office explaining how new people would be accepted. The primeinnovators were Chris McGlothlen, the house's residential a i d e ; Cliff Sullam, French representative:Barb Lambert, Russian; Dale Olson, German; and Doug Padget, Spanish. He said that they have various activities which include movies in the different languages. They have already had Russian, Spanish, and French movies. Tomorrow at 8 p.m. Lovely Roses from I. V. WILSON 1426 Cornwall Ave. 733-7630there will be a German movie shown in the Fairhaven auditorium. Also on the agenda are foreignlanguage conversation classes several nights a week.

French talking groups meet Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 8 to 9:30 p.m. Russian jneets Monday and Thursday from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. and German classes meet Wednesdayfrom 7 to 9 p.m. The public is urged to attend and participate. "We need people who are willing to talk in any of the foreign languages," Padget said. "We urgently need faculty who are willing." He also saidthat applications are now being accepted for Winter quarter residence in the foreign language house. *"â€¢ International Club: Cultural Exchange The International Club is a , meeting ground where foreignand American students can introduce ideas and display certain aspects of , their culture.

CARROLL BAKER M L fMMM ^^ Vikings Lose, 7-0 By BOB TAYLOR Western's football team, despite a two-record shattering performance , byGlenn Hadland, dropped a 7-0 decision to Simon Fraser University (SFU) Saturday night in CivicStadium. A second quarter touchdown and five costly mistakes spelled Western's doom and wasted theVikings' best offensive show of the year. Four pass interceptions and a costly fumble hurt the Viks.Statistically, it was all Western, as the Viks out-rushed, out-passed, and in a sense out-fought theClansmen. But a Dave Syme to Mike Begg touchdown play gave SFU the game's only points. TheVikings' offense produced immense yardage. The Viks gained 81 yards rushing to SFU's 55: the Vikspassed for 122 yards while SFU had 116; and in first downs. Western had 13 to the Clanmen's six. TheViking offense reached the SFU 35-yard line 12 times during the game, but u determined SFU defensestopped Western from getting the ball across the goal-line. Western's fate seemed sealed early in thefirst-quarter, when the Viks, quarterbacked by Marshall Torres, drove to the SFU 19-yard line. On a thirddown pass, Torres tried to hit split-end Steve Jasmer in the end-zone, but SFU's John Beaton made aleaping,interception. As the second quarter opened, Western once again readied deep into Clansmenterritory, this time to the SFU 24 yard-line. Three incomplete passes foiled this Viking drive. TheWestern scoring bid sparked the Clansmen, as SFU struck back for the game's only touchdown. Speedy halfback Glen Colwill set up SFU's score, as he took a Syme hand-off and raced 50 yards to the Viking24 yard-line. Syme then passed the Clansmen to the Western nine yard-line, before hitting Begg in theendzone. Western attempted a rally following the SFU score when Hadland came into the game and led the Viks to the SFU 35-yard-line, but a pass interception killed this drive. In the second-half, it was more of the same. Western driving deep into SFU territory, only to have their rallies stopped by the arousedClansmen. Western's last hope of getting on the scoreboard came with 8:05 left in the game. TheVikings had put together another long drive reaching the SFU 35 yard-line but a fumble ended it. Despite a frustrating evening, Western had several outstanding individual performances. On defense, freshmanRay Kelly, a vicious tackier, played a great game at defensive tackle. The former Sedro Woolley high-school star had 10 unassisted tackles to lead the Vik "stop squad." On offense. Hadland again had abig game, breaking two school records set by Pat Brewin. Hadland was on target for 11 of 22 passingattempts for 251 yards. The 251 yards broke Brewin's total passing yardage record of 2,098. Hadlandnow has 2,251 career total passing yards. The 251 yards also helped the former Franklin Pierce starbreak Brewin's total offense record of 2,194. Hadland's mark is now 2,449. Tom Wigg, Western'sbruising fullback, led all rushers with 100 yards in 23 attempts. Steve Jasmer, the Vikings' glue-fingeredpass catcher, caught five passes for 148 yards. Syme, SFU's star quarterback, completed 10 of 25passes for 116 yards and one touchdown. The leading ball-carrier for SFU was Terry Bailey who pickedup 62 yards on 18 attempts. The loss evened Western's record at 2-2, while SFU swept to its fourthstraight win against no losses. Even the referee couldn't believe this catch by Steve Jasmer (86).

Voter Turn-Off Expected By JIM AUSTIN The co-chairman ofWashington's Vote 19 drive fears that any demonstrations before the Nov. 3 election will cause HouseJoint Resolution 6 to be defeated. HJR 6 extends voting rights to 19 year olds. The National Moratorium Committee has slated Oct-. 31 as Moratorium Day and scheduled anti-war demonstrations in more than 30 cities across the nation, including Seattle. Vote 19 co-chairman Sam Reed told students at theUniversity of Washington last week that the demonstrations would â€¢ "turn the voters off."AnMM gt;IIIIIHmHIHHIHWMmiMÂ«MWÂ»miÂ«HHIIIHHHIHIÂ»IIIMMM He cited the primary election lastSpring in Oregon where voters defeated a similar measure to give the vote to 18 year olds. "Polls inOregon at the end of May showed the voters supported the measure. After those demonstrations(following the killing of students at Kent State University in Ohio) it was defeated by a sound margin."Moratorium organizers at the UW d e n y that the scheduled demonstrations will cause a voter backlash. Student Mobilization Committee representative Russell Block told the UW Daily that a monitoringsystem will s u p e r v i s e the Seattle demonstration. "We've taken extensive measures to see thatnobody's rights, will be violated." Reed cited "inside sources" as saying that Students for a DemocraticSociety and Seattle Liberation Front intend to turn the d e m o n s t r a t i o n s into violentconfrontations. Project Director Dave Jerome dismissed the charge as "ridiculous." "Sure there will beradicals involved," Jerome said. "But that's nothing to be ashamed of. We also have YMCA trade unions involved across the country."

More than 50 people have been searching for Danny Leroy Vaara and Cathy Kristopherson.Vaara was living at Fairhaven, Kristopherson was living off campus. The search for the two started Monday afternoon. About 2:30 p.m. a canoe with Western's name on it was found by Gorden Den Adel. DenAdel lives across from Lakewood, Western's recreation area. Inside boat number four authorities found two jackets, a tennis shoe, a key ring and a wallet containing $9 and identification for Vaara. There wassome speculation about the personal articles found in the boat. ~~ Whatcom County sheriff's deputieswere questioning friends of Vaara and Kristopherson because of their suspicion that the boat might neverhave turned over. Others believe that if the boat had turned over, a swimmer might remove some clothingbefore attempting to reach shore. Directing the search for campus security was Chuck Page. He workeduntil 11 p.m. Monday with deputies, searching along the shore. (CONTINUED TO PAGE 2) RacismWorkshop Rescuers set out to search Lake Whatcom for two Western students missing since lastMonday.

Lane Older, manager ofSudden Valley Air Service, volunteered his time and airplanes to check the shoreline of the lake. In briefhere is how the search has progressed: Den Adel saw a boat in the water about 2:20 p.m. Monday. Hethen went out in his boat, got hold of the canoe and beached it. He called the sheriffs office and thencampus security. Page went out to Lakewood, found the boathouse locked but in checking with thecaretaker, found out that boat number four was out of the boathouse for repair of a small hole. Alsomissing was a plastic jug used as a bailer. Page and sheriff deputies searched cabins and along thelakeshore until 11 p.m. Monday:. Tuesday about 35 students, mostly from Fairhaven, walked along theSouth lakeshore and the area where prevailing winds would have carried any floating object. Two paddleswere found about 150 yards from where Den Adel first saw the canoe. Wednesday, searchers continuedlooking along the lake and officials questioned friends of both Vaara and Kristopherson. According toPage, Vaara and Kristopherson we're last seen on campus about 1 p.m. Den Adel spotted the canoe at2:20 p.m. What happened to the two during the intervening 80 minutes,.as yet no one knows.

Price is 50 cents. Newcouncilman perceives job as community-college liaison By DAN TOLVA Western's physical plantmanager, Stuart Litzsinger, is also Bellingham's newly-elected councilman-at-large. Bellingham's newlyelected closest rival 7,398 to 2,875 in the Nov. 2 elections. Litzsinger considers himself a directcommunication line between the college and the city. He hopes to "greatly enhance" relations betweenthe two. "I can make requests,, and increase the cooperation between the college and Bellingham. I can also dispell rumors that have a habit of cropping up," Litzsinger said. Concerning Bellingham's refusal toclose off High Street, Litzsinger said that the college hadn't carried through on all of the conditions forclosure, but "I'll do whatever I can to speed the process." Litzsinger called for a more efficienttransportation system to get students downtown. "It would be a very pleasant thing to get more studentsto ride downtown, say for a dime. This would bring more money into the downtown area," Litzsinger said. The City Council should be more responsive to student participation in local government, according toLitzsinger. However, the student must have something concrete to contribute. He cited the painting ofslogans on college property as hurting acceptance of the student in city politics. "Those paintings werevery irresponsible. It doesn't do anything but rile people up and get them mad," Litzsinger said. "Thestudent must be willing to be accepted. If they want to be constructive, that's fine," he continued.Litzsinger favors an overall plan for development with some control on the variety of architectural stylesused in homebuilding. Many of the houses that have been built are no more than "cheap, miserablecrackerboxes," Litzsinger charged. STUART LITZSINGER For now, his main goal is to "get educated"before taking office next Jan. 1. As councilman-at-large, Litzsinger feels that he should represent theinterests of the whole city, not just a small pressure group. He called for objectivity in dealing withBellingham's problems. "Some people get so enthused about their particular thing that they can't see theother side. My task as councilman will be to rise above the pressure to see what the facts really are,"Litzsinger said. Student recruitment started for dorm recycling project A drive to recruit 100 workers in amassive dorm recycling project is underway, according to student coordinator Barry Maddocks. - So farthirty students have joined the recycling effort which is to include newsprint, bottles, cans and batteries,Maddocks said. Persons who can drive a car or truck or loan a truck are especially needed, he said. """ . Students who want to join the recycling program may obtain volunteer forms at the information desk inthe Viking Union foyer, at AS Vice-President Larry Diamond's office (VU 001), in Maddocks' dorm room(Nash Hall 315) and in most dormitory lobbies. The comprehensive recycling effort is geared to return any proceeds from the recyclable items to individual dormitory floors. Boxes are now distributed in mostdorms for recyclable items, Maddocks said. The Miller Hall Coffee Shop is also included in the recyclingprogram. Correction Fairhaven quarter The Fairhaven Quarter change recently put before the Board ofTrustees will go into effect this winter. It was incorrectly reported in last Tuesday's Front that the quarterchange was postponed. The change was brought before the Board of Trustees only as an informationalitem and no action was taken. The plan calls for dividing the quarter into five two-week sessions. Each ofthe first four sessions would be used for two weeks of concentrated study in one subject at Fairhaven. The fifth session, in the middle of the quarter would be a vacation. ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 12 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, November 12, 1971 Western Front Campus thefts continue to rise By RUSS CRAVENS Lastyear reported thefts at Western totalled more than $33,420, and officials fear this year's figure may beeven higher. According to Chuck Page, security officer, campus officials are extremely concerned aboutthe increased number of thefts in recent years. ,-â€¢ "Last year's thefts were practically three times thenumber reported in previous years," Page said. "If campus thefts follow their current trends, this year'snumber may double last year's." During October of this year 49 thefts involving items valued at nearly$1,854 were reported to the security office. "This has been a drastic increase and compares with the"rise in campus incidents this fall," Page said. Incidents, which include thefts, medical assistance,student misconduct, accidents, etc., increased from 63 in September and October of 1970 to 155 for thesame period this year. Page said the monetary total could not be exactly determined because it isimpossible to set a value on items such as heirlooms and credit cards. Bicycles have been a primarytarget of thieves this year, according to Page. Ten bikes, valued between $80 and $130 each, had beenreported as stolen by Oct. 27. Page suggested students could help curb thefts by locking their dormitory rooms, automobiles and bicycles and taking advantage of safety precautions offered by the securityoffice and the local authorities. "Never leave a dorm room unlocked even for a minute," Page said. "Weget reports all the time from students who left the room for five minutes or less and returned to findsomething stolen. "Bicycles should be "chained through both wheels and the frame," Page said. "Werecommend a chain about five feet long and a heavy padlock. If a student is going to spend $130 for abike, it makes sense to buy a good chain to protect it." Page urged all bicycle owners to register theirbikes with the security office, adding that the security office sends duplicate copies to the Bellinghampolice department. The security office also provides inventory forms for listing property. The forms can befiled with the security office and be used to help recover stolen items. Page also said the Bellinghampolice loan out engravers and suggested students take advantage of the opportunity to mark theirproperty. "Students can also help the security depWtment and themselves by being alert and involved,"Page said. "If a student sees someone struggling to get into a car, it may be he lost his key, but it mayalso be that he intends to steal something. If someone walks into a dorm room, looks surprised to seesomeone there and mumbles 'oh, this must not be Mary's room," take a good look at the person. Thesepeople are prime suspects in dorm and car thefts. "If a student sees something or someone suspicious,he should call the security depart office. His call may save him or his friends from phoning later to reporta theft," Page said. Compromise reached with Buchanan residents The Advisory Committee on Housingand Dining reached a compromise decision with resident representatives of Buchanan Towers Tuesday,which would provide the residents with additional carpeting and continued rent reductions. The decision,which Gerald Brock, chairman of the committee, described as "a sort of compensation" for allegedmisrepresentation of the building's room sizes and furnishings by the housing office, would provide fullcarpeting in each bedroom of Buchanan Towers, a continued 20 per cent rent reduction on a perapartment basis until the carpeting is installed and, then, a 10 per cent reduction until the end of theacademic year. The decision must go to the Auxiliary Enterprises Committee for recommendation toPresident Flora for final recommendation to the Board of Trustees. Brock said that if the decision isapproved by the Board of Trustees, the carpeting could possibly be installed in two to three months. Theresident representatives met with the advisory committee to present a list of four demands, which theysaid were the result of the "misrepresentations" the housing office had made concerning the $3.8 millionfacility. Their demands included; a 35 per cent rent reduction for the remainder of the year; installation ofcarpeting in the building's bedrooms; the option of terminating their academic year contracts; and theoption to remain or move into the mobile homes. Brock told the resident representatives that he felt thehousing office had not misrepresented any information about the building. ^ "What we did was present anopinion of what the apartments would be like," he explained. "The intent to intentionally mislead anyonewasn't there." Some members of the committee agreed that there might have been some unintentionalmisrepresentation of apartment facilities and this could mean providing a smaller rent reduction than therepresentatives had requested. As a compromise to the demands of the residents a motion wasintroduced and then amended which specified that all residents must be held to their housing contractsand that as soon as the building was completed all residents must move out of the trailers into Buchanan Towers. It also contained provisions for the carpeting and continued rent reductions. The motion wasthen unanimously passed by the Advisory Committee. Resident representatives said they would presentthe proposals to the other Buchanan Towers residents for their approval. Earlier in the week, the residentrepresentatives had met with Brock and Pete Coy of the housing office to discuss a list of 42 complaintsregarding Buchanan Towers. The majority of the complaints would be taken care of as soon as sub-contractors completed their work, Brock said. Other complaints, such as lack of mirrors and cleaningequipment would be taken care of as soon as possible. No final decision was made on a number ofmajor complaints, such as poor furniture, lack of washers and dryers and lack of shelf area in thekitchen. Brock and the representatives agreed to take a wait and see attitude on most of thosecomplaints. Dave Shannon, a WashPIRG volunteer, explains the group's purpose to a student as part ofWashPIRG's petition drive on campus. Over 2,600 sign WashPIRG petition Over 2,600 signatures werecollected by late afternoon Wednesday in the first official day of the Washington Public Interest Research Group (WashPIRG) petition drive. Although WashPIRG campus officials had hoped for about 5,000signatures on the first day, they were quite content with the initial student response to the consumerprotection oriented group. Larry Diamond, a WashPIRG organizer on campus, said that they are hopingto college 8,000 signatures in less than a week. "A failure would be anything less than 50 per cent of thestudents signing the petition," Diamond said. If enough signatures are collected, the WashPIRG proposal of collecting $ 1 from every student on campus at registration time will be presented to the Board ofTrustees for approval.

Newresidence hall security staff patrols campus dorms at night By STEPHANY BRUELL The residence halls and apartment complexes at Western are patrolled nightly by four young men. They do not wear thetraditional six-pointed hat or sport a badge. Instead, they are more likely to be seen in sports coats andslacks talking casually with students. These young men constitute the newly initiated residence, hallsecurity staff. The resident aides, formerly, had the responsibility of policing the dorms; the housingdirectors decided the R.A.'s could serve the students more efficiently if they acted only in advisory andcounselling capacities. The security staff was created to work with the residence hall staffs by handlingminor rule infractions and complaints. The security staff patrols lower campus, upper campus, Fairhaven,Buchanan Towers, and Birnam Wood. So far, everyone involved seems pleased with the program. KeithGuy of the residence hall program said, "The addition of these people has been a positive addition. Wewanted to create the image of the friendly cop on the corner and I believe we've succeeded." The security staff is encouraged to talk with and get to know the students. They may enter private rooms if invited in,but otherwise must abide by the "knock first" policy. They may not make arrests; violations are reportedto the resident director. Students in the dorm are aware of the staff but not conscious of their presence.Teresa Center and Donna Ackerman, freshmen from Yakima, have only seen one member of the security staff in Mathes. "They check on things . . . like the bikes. They keep an eye on things and don't botherus." Jim Cox, a senior recreation major from Tacoma living in Nash said the staff is nice to have aroundbut did not think they were necessary. "When you come to college you want to be independent, youdon't want a father figure looking over you." Tom O'Grady, a member of the security team, is happy withhis job. "I like it fine. The rapport we are establishing with the kids is tremendous" O'Grady, 22, feels hisage has a lot to do with the positive response he is getting. "A 30-year-old man couldn't do the job." Thetotal cost for the nine month program is $27,000, being shared by housing and security. Housing andsecurity personnel think the staff is working out well, but are still evaluating the program. ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 12 - Page 4 ---------- Western Front Friday, November 12, 1971 Front Editorials.... 'To comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted1 Letters from our readers Front coverage The Front is foundering because of insufficientadvertising revenue. This restricts our presentation of news. Some persons are under the mistakennotion that stories, letters to the editor or other materials for publication are withheld purposefully by theeditorial staff. This is not true. To the best of our ability the Front staff is presenting a diversified view ofnews and happenings at Western. We believe it is important for our readers to diversify coverage asmuch as possible. Given limited space we cannot print every story. So we are trying to include important news in relation to the campus, interesting features, editorial leadership, reader response andhappenings that may be of interest to some students. It is not possible to include all we have of all those types of stories. Consequently we are trying to include the best of all them. The Front cannot serve as a slave to all the isolated groups on campus who demand coverage. Many persons have been upset thisfall because a particular item was left Neon sign nuisance With all the talk about trying to close HighStreet and about beautifying the campus and college-owned facilities, it would seem that the collegecould take the first step. Case in point: The neon sign at the intersection of Holly and Indian streetsdirects motorists to the campus via Indian and High streets. If the sign were moved to Garden and Holly,it would have motorists avoid High Street and direct them to the new bypass. Case in point: The sign atthe intersection of Holly and Indian streets is a rusting relic that certainly does not add to beautifying the area, even when all of its letters are lighted, and they usually aren't. Campus Planner Barney Goltz hasa number of ideas to beautify the campus. He has displayed plans for new traffic control signs, garbagereceptacles and telephone booths for the campus. They were designed for their simplicity and beauty.Included in the plans was a sign to replace the neon monstrosity at the foot of Indian. That was twoyears ago. -Bob Burnett out of the paper that they wanted in. But it is the duty of the Front, in our eyes,to present the best and most important of what is happening. The paper cannot be at its best and at thesame time subservient to the individual interests of any and every student who thinks he can claimspace in the paper. We are grateful for help from the students. At this point we sorely need advertisingsalesmen. There is money to be made. A 15 per cent commission on all ads solicited for the Front ispaid to students. So if you need the money, see or call our ad manager, Ed Hodder or businessmanager, Bob Burnett. Then maybe we can begin to print all the news and everyone can be satisfied.

EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160 Editor: There has been a great deal of c o m m e n t , both written (editorials) and verbal, about the methods and processes involved in the Amchitka Movement which took place last week on the Western campus. The many implicationsand outright blasts at the College of Ethnic Studies (CES) for its involvement in the movement arecompletely unfounded and irresponsible. The college as an institution had nothing to do with theactivities of the movement. The proposals for action come from an instructor at CES, but the movementitself was taken up by the STUDENTS. STUDENT involvement was not confined to CES. Fairhaven and many other campus organizations also became involved. To imply that ethnic studies supported theactivities of the total movement on campus is a grossly unfounded statement. And if people who spoutsuch statements had taken time to ask the ethnic college what its position was on the activities of themovement, they w o u l d have seen the i r r e s p o n s i b i l i t y of such implications. The proposalsgenerated by the students from CES were not, "wild eyed, desperate fear mongering" (quote fromeditorial in last week's Front), they were well thought out and organized. The two proposals were: 1.Attempt to develop a coast-wide class boycott at major universities. In effect a moratorium typemovement to set up programs of action, teach-ins, discussion groups, and rallys. The purpose was toimpress upon the government how we felt about the Amchitka Blast. 2. Propose a border meeting withthe Canadians to show our support of their sentiments against Cannikin. This was the extent of themajor proposals from the students of CES. Other groups on campus also undertook to develop activitiesto stop the blast on Amchitka. The fact that more than one group or organization was involved inAmchitka is completely lost in the Letters to the Editor by Mr. Keller of Fairhaven (which appeared inlast week's Front). Perhaps if a little more indepth study had gone into the preparation of such aneditorial, the analysis would have been more accurate. Jon Lantz College of Ethnic Studies Women'sSymposium again Editor: We wish to respond to Terri Pechthalt's letter printed in the Tuesday, Nov. 2Front which referred to the Women's S y m p o s i u m and our presentation on Lesbian Liberation as a"farce," "insult to intelligence," etc. We are sorry that Miss Pechthalt could not find among all thespeakers at the symposium, all of whom were experts on their topics, many who had doctorates, andsome who had-'- -years' lt; of' -activist' experience, at lease one who did not insult her superiorintelligence. As for positive alternatives, one offered by Women's Liberation is an end to job d i s c r i mi n a t i o n of womenâ€”something Terri will have to face if she attempts to enter her chosen field,journalism, a notoriously male dominated field (see "Trials of Lois Lane," by Lindsy Van Gelder inSisterhood is Powerful!). The alternatives we asked for Gay People were our basic civil rights as humanbeings, to be allowed to live and function in this society with the same rights and responsibilities aseveryone e l s e w i t h o u t fear of psychological and/or physical harassment, job and housingdiscrimination, and social prejudicial practices. All we can do in reference to the comment about Blackpeople and Gay people (a comment which probably made one Gay Alliance member, a Black Lesbian,roll with laughter) is refer you to a quote from Huey Newton, in The Black Panther, Aug. 21, 1970: " . . .I know through my reading and through my life experience, my o b s e r v a t i o n s , that homosexualsare not given freedom and liberty by anyone in this society. Maybe they might be the most oppressedpeople in the society." As for confining ourselves, we must say that that is an impossibility because weare sick to death of living in the closets s o c i e t a l ignorance and intolerance have forced upon us. All we can say is that if you don't like what we say and do, and do not wish to help, then you'd better moveaside because we are moving forward.

Under the camera lights andbefore the microphones, former senator Eugene McCarthy is every bit the politician. Sitting in anarmchair, reading his own poetry or talking with his friends and closest supporters, he is the picture of amiddle-aged screen personality, a college professor or a girlfriend's father. Last Thursday, McCarthy the politician spoke before a crowd of SENATOR EUGENE McCARTHY 3,500 University of Washingtonstudents, held a press conference, taped two network television specials, criticized his opponents at aDemocratic spaghetti feed and later that night McCarthy the poet revealed his real personality.Speaking on the HUB lawn, McCarthy showed much of the charisma that won him support during hisunsuccessful White House bid in 1968. Laughter rippled through the crowd as he chided politicians likeGeorge McGovern, Henry Jackson, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon-to name a few. He wonapplause at the expense of the Atomic Energy Commission, the corporate image, bureaucracy, themilitary, the automobile industry, the space program and even capitalism and his own political party: .â€”In order to extend capitalism you need two things: a thriving automobile industry and good war.â€”We've gained a lot from the space program, like radioactive-resistant paint, luminous metal andemployment for 500,000. â€¢ â€”"Nixon is using shots to get high (Space shots.) Every time he's down,he just-puts up another one." -Achievements in the auto industry: "Now they're even calling back carswhen there's something wrong with them." -One or two candidates were against the war in '68. Noweverybody's against it, even Henry Jackson, the senator from Boeing. - " I oppose his (Jackson's)policies because they have helped make our foreign policy what it is and also have helped to make ourdomestic problems what they are." McCarthy talked on every subject a presidential hopeful might beexpected to talk on, but rarely committed himself. He was so evasive or vague during a brief question-and-answer period that afterward students could remember what he had talked about, but could notrecall what he had said. -Would there be a split in the Democratic party if Jackson got the nod?"Presidential candidates have been overly personalized."- â€”How he would cure the economy: "That isone of the principal points of difference between me and other candidates." â€”Would he support militaryaid to Israel? "Our commitment to Israel goes back to 1945." During the press conference, McCarthywas asked if he was actively seeking his party's nomination for president. "I haven't said that," he said."But I haven't said that I won't be a candidate either. I'm getting as much delegate strength as I can forme and my position or even for others who have my position." McCarthy and Carl Maxey, both FormerSenator Eugene McCarthy, speaking before a large crowd in Seattle quipped, "Nixon is using shots to get high (space shots). Every time he's down, he just puts up another one." anti-Jackson men, put on agood show at a spaghetti dinner put on by the Washington Democratic Council and Young Democrats.The markedly liberal crowd applauded wildly and offered a standing ovation after McCarthy's speech.During the speech, a few Jackson people passed anti-McCarthy leaflets. The division in the stateDemocratic party was openly apparent. Many of those attending the dinner were supporters in 1968.Some of them thought McCarthy has less of a chance at the White House now than he did then. Hisanti-war crusade in '68 rallied young people behind him and his platform's single outstanding plank, toend the war, right into the Democratic convention in Chicago. His campaign was instrumental in defeating Johnson. It is a decisive factor in polarizing the Democratic party. Later Thursday night McCarthy thepoet read from his small book of verse, "Other Things and the Aardvark." His mood was changed. Helooked like a tired, silver-haired gentleman who has known defeat, and is tasting it again. To borrow afew words from the University of Washington Daily's Rusty Yerxa, McCarthy appears to be a fallen hero.His visit to Seattle was to search for a following. He failed to find it in significant numbers. "He merelydipped his milk toast into the syrup of our apathy and went away to contemplate the taste." Speakersurge reform (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) initiatives of leaders such as Eldridge Cleaver are not enoughto sustain a revolution. The party wants Blacks to realize that the oppressors' guns are not the only forms of genocide. Indecent housing, clothing and medical care are also ways the fascists control Blacks, hesaid. We must get rid of the octopus of American government which enslaves all of us, he said. Theprison reform program is a fascist sham. People shouldn't be deprived of their families and friends foryears merely for breaking laws, he said. Black college students must work to develop skills that can bedeveloped into a machine to deal with Nixon. Dixon said, "On national TV, Nixon said 'all. power to thepeople.' Ain't that a bitch. When he says 'all power to the people' he means all power to himself, all power to the Pentagon, all power to fascism. When we say 'all power to the people,' we mean just that . . . weintend to serve the masses of people and take the power out of the hands of the pigs. Free all politicalprisoners." On MECHA and prisons The importance of MECHA as an ethnic organization for Chicanosand the destruction of the existing prison system were the key issues raised in a speech Tuesdayafternoon by Armando Mendoza of the University of Washington Office of Minority Affairs. He urged thatChicanos first establish their own identity before attempting to form a grand coalition with other ethnicgroups. He endorsed MECHA as "an identification with the past," but "not a return to origins." Theimportance of retaining personal identity as a Chicano through MECHA is avoiding the "press" of highereducation which squeezes and shoves persons into molds. "You're not the same person when you come out," he said. He also urged the support of all ethnic groups in destroying the present prison system.Prisons, which he described as "a multi-million dollar business," are "the most degrading institutions inthe country." When asked about the Walla Walla State Penitentiary where reforms have been institutedMendoza said this was a step in the right direction. But Mendoza said prisons "should be taken out ofthe hands of the professionals and put in the hands of people who have experienced it." Most prisonprograms "are totally unrealistic and inhumanistic," he charged. "Some 70 per cent of those persons who leave prison return," he said in citing the widespread failure of prison rehabilitation. On institutionalracism "Washington State's government fails to recognize the need to make allowances on thequalifications of minority job applicants, Curtis DuPuis of the State Department of Employment Securitysaid Tuesday. In a speech in the Viking Union on "Institutional Racism," DuPuis said, "White peoplewere better qualified," for many of the jobs that both minority people and Whites apply for in stategovernment, but he criticized the state for not hiring minority people to give them a chance at the job.DuPuis added that minority students "should be willing to make a sacrifice for two or three years" to work in state programs for minority groups. He said that many Indian, Black or Chicano people were qualifiedfor jobs but failed to get them because applications included tests requiring knowledge of mathematics or of vocabulary that was seldom, if ever, used on the job. White applicants, with the advantage of betterschooling, did better on the tests. He cited an instance where the state failed to hire minority schoolcounselors with five or six years of experience because they did not have .college degrees., ..-â€¢.

The skis would be flat on the snow and you would constantly catch the outside edges. Also it would be very tiring. To have more comfort wearing ski boots it is best to wear 1 pr. medium and 1 pr.heavy socks unless your feet are already toughened up. Foaming is the answer for some feet but "don'texpect miracles.

JimMcDermott, M.D. (D-Seattle) charged that present state funding was in "a sad state" and criticizedrecent budget cuts. "I didn't see any need to cut the college budgets," said McDermott, an unofficialcandidate for the Democratic nomination for governor. "Because we're getting short on money, pressureon colleges will be greater to assess what they're doing and where they're going," he said. McDermottcalled on colleges to "look at what they're training kids for." "What's the use of this college, for example,to train teachers and send them out when they can't get jobs?" McDermott asked. McDermott criticizedthe emphasis by many people on getting "a good college education." "Society has to consider that a lotof people would be happier just learning a trade. It is a good thing to work with your hands," he said. Asa result, McDermott favors increased state spending for vocational and technical schools. TheDemocratic gubernatorial hopeful was on campus Wednesday to promote his unofficial campaign.Besides representing Governor Dan Evans' old district, McDermott teaches child psychiatry at theUniversity of Washington and practices at Harborview Hospital in Seattle. McDermott hopes to enlist thesupport of students in his battle for the Democratic nomination. "I'll do anything I can to get them(students) involved in my campaign," he said. "Because of disenchantment on the part of young and oldalike, it isn't very easy to mobilize anyone for a campaign," McDermott continued. "The best I can do isgive people a chance to hear and see me,", he said. JIM McDERMOTT Krishna code of ethics shunsmaterialism, lust By JACKIE LAWSON "We like going to universities because the students are our onlyhope for this world," Rukma Das, follower of Krishna consciousness said. Das explained the Krishnamovement, as two other members chanted and swayed in front of the Viking Union last Tuesday. Themovement, called the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), has its Washingtonbase in Seattle's University District. There, 15 members, both men and women, live in two houses,devoting their time to studying the Krishna scriptures and making incense, which is their main source ofrevenue. Das became involved with the movement following a stint at Simon Fraser University inBurnaby, B.C. He began by reading Yoga books. "I became quite attracted by everything (the movement) because of the pure spiritual life. Association is our biggest asset in this life. If we associate with greatmen, then, we can achieve those qualities of the great men. I was exhausted with materialism, sex, cars, drugs and liquor," he explained. Das explained the Krishna code of ethics, called regulative principles,by which all members must live. Meat, fish, and eggs are strictly prohibited, as is illicit sex, mentalspeculation (gambling) and intoxicants such as coffee, tea, cigarettes, drugs and liquor. The accepteddiet involves vegetables, fruit, grains and dairy products. Sex for pleasure is prohibited. Only marriedcouples, called householders, may have sex, which is only for the purpose of procreation. "Sex is real,but real in the spiritual world. People are on an impure platform. Having love on a transcendental platformis the ideal. "In this world, love is not love but lust. Once we control the senses it becomes very peaceful. The dog and cat sex life we exhibit on this planet becomes abominable," he said. "Our ultimate goal isto associate with God. The material world is temporary. Renunciation means using materialism in theLord's service, where everything becomes spiritual," he said. Krishna followers dress in flowing robes asglorification to God. "We dress like this because we want to please the spiritual master. Our robesattract attention to God, ourselves, and the movement," he said. Academic Council reviews classes,Fairhaven schedule By HEIDI HENKEN The Academic Council discussed the acceptance of two newclasses at their regular meeting Tuesday. Prospective classes were Biology 401, Microbio-ecology andEconomics 297a, special problems, personnel management. Also under question was the new winterquarter scheduling arrangement at Fairhaven College. Kenneth Freeman, dean of Fairhaven, presentedinformation and answered questions from the Council. He thought the article in the Western Frontconcerning the postponement of quarter changes by the Board of Trustees raised a "red herring," statingthat it referred to "the Board of Trustees not taking action on this until they had plenty of chance to studyit." A question and answer handout from Freeman gave more information about the proposed calendar.There are five sessions in the calendar, each 13 or 14 days long, with a one-day break between eachone. A student would probably be able to take only one class in each session and may take a total of five courses. Questions were raised concerning those students who wished to combine a schedule ofWestern and Fairhaven courses. It was felt this set-up would force a student to take either all Westerncourses for the quarter or all Fairhaven courses. Freeman stated that the ratio of students takingWestern courses or Fairhaven courses was about 50-50 and "if all of our students were to decide to takethe Fairhaven, we'd have to cancel the program. We simply don't have the staff." It was also pointed outthat the schedule was only for winter quarter but could be repeated again winter quarter next year if itworked. The Council said it would be interested in seeing an evaluation of the program and thankedFreeman for coming. Paul Roley of the Committee on Curricular Program Problems requested permission from the Council to launch an investigation of the goals and missions of Western. The council then willdetermine what the objectives of the college should be. After a warning from David Ziegler, representativefrom the Council to the Long Range Planning Committee, against a refusal to come to grips with concrete issues, a motion was passed giving the committee permission to investigate the college's objectives.Under consideration on a future agenda will be the concern expressed for the effect of Fairhaven College's decision to abandon credits on the value of a Western degree. ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 12 - Page 7 ---------- Friday, November 12, 1971 Western Front 7 Pigskin Viks end Pirate string and Huskies topple TroyPremonitions Harriers in District meet By BOB TAYLOR "Coach Tom Reynolds can count on a steadyand strong defensive unit but moving the ball could become a problem." (1971 Football Roundup pre-season estimate of Northern Montana.) Whitworth gt;85, Northern Montana 13 Somehow, somewhere,someone"' really missed the pre-season estimate on Northern Montana. That is, not to slight Whitworth,but anyone who has followed the Pirates this season knows that touchdowns have been mighty scarcefor the Spokane school. How else can you explain a 1-6 ledger. So why the high score? After some deep pondering on the subject, we came to these conclusions: 1, Northern Montana sent its jayvee team; 2,Northern Montana didn't play well; 3, Northern Montana is a retail house for touchdowns; 4, Whitworthplayed well; 5, Northern Montana and the other small Montana colleges (excluding Montana U. andMontana State) are still not up to par with the stronger Northwest small colleges. We favor the latter twoconclusions. Whitworth had lost some close contests going into the Northern Montana game. Amongthese narrow defeats was a 24-21 toughie to Central. So after seven losses the Pirates were ready for akill and Northern Montana happened to be the victim. Also, the small Montana colleges still have aconsiderable distance to go before they will be able to evenly compete with the small Northwest schools. In any case, the Pirates inflicted the worst defeat Northern Montana had suffered since last season'sclosing loss to Rocky Mountain College, 61-24. Despite the fact that Whitworth has a new, rejuvenatedoffense, we think Western will win its encounter with the Pirates this weekend. Whitworth and Westernhave had several close battles in recent years. Last year the Viks topped the Pirates, 28-21. Last weekwe picked six of nine games correctly, moving the season's record to 31-14. We're still shooting for a 100per cent weekend and this could be the weekend. In any case here's how we pick them: EvergreenConference Western over Whitworth The Vikings have too much offense for the Pirates. Northern Arizona over Southern Oregon We might be underrating Southern, but we think the Big Sky Conference team isslightly stronger. Oregon College over Central If the contest was being played in Ellensburg we'd pick the Wildcats, but the game is in Monmouth so the Wolves get the nod. Portland State over EasternWashington Should be plenty of fireworks with the Oregon team mustering the most fire. Nevada overEastern Oregon Last year Nevada won 61-24 and they're supposed to be stronger this fall. St. Mary'sover Oregon Tech St. Mary's isn't a powerhouse but they're better than the Owls. (But who hasn't beenbetter than the Owls.) Pacific Eight Washington over Southern California We've plenty of reasons forpicking the Huskies this weekend. For starters: it's Homecoming at Seattle; the Trojans will be minustheir ace running back Sam Cunningham; and Washington has a Cherokee quarterback who could rallyany team with the exception of Oregon Tech. Washington State over Oregon State The Cougars getback on the victory trail and make their television debut. Oregon over California California has had an upand down season and they'll remain down after this weekend. Stanford over San Jose State It would take a miracle for the Spartans to win. SPORT SHORTS Cage preview Western basketball fans can gettheir first look at this year's cage team tomorrow night when the Vikings play host to an AmateurAthlete's Union (AAU) team from Seattle in a practice game in Carver Gymnasium at 7.

President Flora requested that the study be made. The proposedmerger would, hopefully, reduce duplication of courses, aid in scheduling physical education majors andreduce administrative paper work. The report will also include a study of how interschool athletics enterinto the school curriculum. The report will be submitted to Flora around Christmas time.

Coach Dick Bowman feels that histeam has a strong likelihood of placing at least second in the district run. He concedes that WhitworthCollege of Spokane has the best chance to win tomorrow's race at Pacific Lutheran University inTacoma.

"Karate is part of you for therest of your life," Ken Kooyers, Western's Karate Club instructor, said. "It's not like boxing. It is a way oflife. Your whole mental attitude is involved." "Once you become efficient, you feel eliteâ€”proud ofyourself," he added. Kooyers describes karate as striking, blocking and kicking. He did away with theconception that karate is breaking boards and bricks. That is only for show, he said. Karate isquickness. It is rendering an attacker helpless before he can get at you. The main thing is to keepcoming all the time, Kooyers said. "You have to get away from a paranoid attitude," he stressed. Whatwould you do if you were attacked by someone with a knife or if three people tried to jump you? Freezemaybe? Try to run? "The reason people take up karate is to help themselves," Kooyers believes. "Welive in a violent world and people just want to know how to handle a violent situation," he said. "You can'tseem to rely on law enforcement agencies or on people in the streets." Any new student first learns bywatching the other members. "Everyone when they first come in is uncoordinated," Kooyers said. Thenthe new member tries the formal exercises, called Katas, in which he has no opponent and later helearns to counter the attack of another member. Each student, learns how to use hands and feetquickly with control and with power. There are many different karate styles. Some styles emphasizeusing hands, others emphasize using one's feet. Karate can be defensive, with blocking and striking, orattacking. The style Western's Karate Club uses is called Butoku-kan karate which means "the virtue ofthe martial arts." "Uncle, UNCLE!!!' Western eleven to visit Spokane By KENT SHERWOOD Western'sfootball squad will pay a visit to an old friend tomorrow, when the Vikings travel to Spokane to meet theWhitworth Pirates. Whitworth, a former member of the Evergreen Conference, dropped from the leagueafter last year to join the Northwest League. The Pirates have yet to work into the NWL's full scheduleyet, and have played four Evco opponents thus far as compared to two Northwest foes. The Bucs are 1-6 for the year, getting their only victory last weekend against Northern Montana by a walloping 85-13score. The game, which was Whitworth's homecoming game in Spokane, unleashed a. lot of pent upfrustrations for coach Hugh Campbell's squad. Whitworth has played some close, tough contests thisseason. The Pirates' losses have been to Willamette, 35-7, Lewis Clark, 23-21, Eastern Washington,26-9, Oregon College, 35-7, Southern Oregon, 27-0, and Central, 24-20. The Pirates have built theiroffense basically around quarterback Jeff Perry. Perry has a fine arm and can move the Bucs. whengiven blocking. Unfortunately, blocking has been a serious problem for the Whits. Defense has alsobeen a minus factor for Whitworth. The Bucs have given up an average of 26 points per game ascompared to the Vikings who have allowed 11.2 points per game. Vik coach Boyde Long will send hisEvco champion warriors into the game with the loop's leading rusher, scorer and pass receiver. TomWigg has a comfortable lead in the rushing category with a net gain of 966 yards. John Huntsman ofEastern Oregon is second with 871. Wigg also leads in scoring with 64 points. Split end Steve Jasmer is pacing Evco in receiving with 22 catches for 6 0 9 yards and seven touchdowns. Linebacker DanGrimshaw was named the conference's defensive player of the week for his play against the Owls.Grimshaw, a 6-0, 195-pound senior from Lakewood Center, made two fumble recoveries in addition toseveral solo tackles. The Viks are 6-0 in Evco play and 6-2 for the year. Ranked third this week in theNorthwest behind the only team to defeat them (Puget Sound and Pacific Lutheran) Western will try towin their first non-league game of the season. Game time is 1:30 p.m. at the Pine Bowl on theWhitworth campus. SFU ducats Tickets are still on sale for the Nov. 20 football game betweenWestern and Simon Fraser University. The contest will be played at 8 p.m. in Vancouver, B.C.'s Empire Stadium. . Bellingham's Central Lions Club has obtained 1,000 tickets for the contest, according toEugene Omey, college director of admissions and Lions Club member. The Lions Club will be making aslight profit on each ticket sold, with all profits going to the club's effort in sight conservation, buyingeyeglasses for needy children in the local area. Tickets are $1 for students and $2 for the general public at the Viking Union information desk, the Co-op Bookstore and the Men's Physical EducationDepartment in Carver Gym 102. " O O O F F ! " Photos by Jim Thomson One of the first things a Karatestudent learns, is that a foot in the stomach beats two in the bush. "It is a happy medium, using bothhands and feet equally," Kooyers said. Though karate used to be a man's sport, more and more womenhave been studying karate in recent years. In fact, Western's Karate Club consists of approximately 20men and 10 women. There is no favoritism toward anyone of either sex, he pointed out. Both sexeswork equally as hard, he said. You can't get away from bruises and bumps and you stretch muscles like you never stretched them before. Because women are physically weaker, they are taught how to usepurses, matchbooks, rat-tail combs and even how to scream. This screaming, called Ki, is an adrenalinbuilder . which gives one courage, Kooyers said. "You get. that little extra power through ascreamâ€”innerpower," he said. "It is also a startling affect." The six belts of karate describe rank. Thehighest rank is the black belt which Kooyers wears. It is preceded by brown, green, purple, orange andwhite (no rank) belts. Kooyers, who has been studying karate for two years, now calls himself a student of karate. "When you become a black belt is when you become a student of karate," he said. The clubmeets Mondays and Wednesdays from 7 to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. "Studyingkarate is not going to be easy," Kooyers added. That's all right. I was up with a toothache anyway.onight: "W keurj somebody in Tbmbstone,Ariz. Now there's a special Late, Late Rate on out-of-stateLong Distance calls you dial yourself.

Show more1971_1109 ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 9 - Page 1 ---------- Western seeks additional $4 million By PAT BRENNEN College officials met with the legislature's JointCommittee on Higher Education last Friday, at Western to present requests for nearly $4 million insupplemental operating and capital budget items. The money was allocated by the 1972 special sessionof the state legislature. The $4 million request was approved a day earlier by the college's Board ofTrustees, with $2,600,840 earmarked for capital improvements; $526,868 for non-salary operatingexpenses and $793,180 for salary increases for faculty and administrators. College President Charles J.Flora had called for a 10 per cent faculty pay increase at the Board's meeting. He termed the presentsalary situation "the most important problem confronting the college today." Flora told the Board that thecollege is losing a lot of good professors, some of them to community colleges. "The problem is terribly,terribly serious," he said. "One has to consider that faculty members here earn, on an average, $ 1,650less per year than their community college counterparts." He explained that salaries.at Western arecurrently 20 per cent below the national average at Western and that the faculty and administration didnot receive a salary increase in the 1971-72 budget and that they only received a 4 per cent increase theyear before. Flora added that in his opinion, the low salaries at Western are creating a negative moraleimpact among the faculty. "The impacts could be tragic if the legislature turns down the plea for salaryincreases," Flora warned. Campus Planner Barney Goltz told the Board that the $2.6 million capitalbudget request is almost entirely for utilities construction and equipment expenses that had been left outof previous budget requests because the money would not be needed until after the 1972 specialsession. They include $1,631-, 590 for installing utilities in buildings already built or under construction;$194,250 to complete Phase one in the remodeling of Old Main and $775,000 for equipment to makerecently completed space usable. The $526,828 requested for non-salary operating expenses wouldprovide $104,861 for workload increases resulting from participation in 15 Council on Higher Educationstudies; legislative committees and studies; expansion of the financial aids program and the implication of the tuition and fee act passed in he 1971 session, which tripled the administrative workload. In addition,$302,394 of the request, would be used to support an increase in the instructional formula of 2.5 per cent,or the addition of some 18 faculty positions. To be included in the governor's budget request to thespecial session, the supplemental budget, as presented by the college, must first be approved by thegovernor's Office of Program Planning and Fiscal Management. Panels, speakers, films RacismWorkshop begins today By BOB McLAUCHLAN Throughout the history of America, minority races havebeen persecuted and given a raw deal. The original inhabitants of this country, the Indians, were takenfrom -their lands and put on reservations. Many still remain on the reservations-scorned and looked downupon by much of the White population. The American Blacks, once inhabitants of the African continent,were chained and brought to this country as slaves. Though they gained their freedom, they still have notgained the equality which was supposed to come with their freedom. The Japanese in this country wereherded into concentration camps during World War H-not because they were criminals, but because they were Japanese. All of this comes under the heading of racism. Today is the beginning of the three-dayracism workshop sponsored by the Black, Indian and Asian Student Unions; and MECHA (ChicanoStudent Union). This is the first time the minority groups have come together on campus. Bernie Thomas of the American Indian Students Union said,' One of our goals is to point at racism. Perhaps you will seeyourself as part of that racist society. "Racism is a quiet animal-it hurts ethnic minorities and makes lifemiserable for us. We are here to point at you and hope that you point at us." Allen Stowers from theBlack Student Union defines racism further, "We live under the veil of a democratic society while in fact it is racist. We live in a so-called ordered, rational society in which some folks are living under the illusionthat they are superior because of common characteristics. I say it is a sickness that we must addressourlseves to. "One of the ostensible objectives of the Nov. 9, 10 and 11 workshop is to disseminateinformation about the fantasies of race. We must address ourselves to the fantasies of racism, becausewe too are a part of that neurotic lifestyle. A lifestyle that may in fact destroy all mankind. We see thisvery clearly in the Amchitka adventure. "Racism has been an integral part of this 'rational' society sinceits inception. Now, in 1971, racism still is used as a stabilizing force and it is indeed a source ofgratification to many." (See page 3 for schedule of events) Petition drive for student dollar begins TheWashington Public Interest Research Group (WashPlRG) on campus will begin a seven day petition drivetoday with the hope of getting over 8,000 students to support the Ralph Nader fashioned group.

WashPIRG begins petition drive (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) cent of the"students is needed to sign the petition before they can have any bargaining power with the Board ofTrustees. Any student who does not want to participate will be entitled to a full refund within one week ofWashPIRG's receipt of funds. This money will be used by the state group for hiring lawyers, scientists,economists and engineers. These professionals will work with student volunteers on student-identifiedissues in the areas of consumer protection, environmental preservation and corporate and governmentalactivities which affect the public interest. Public Interest Research Groups have been successfullyoperating in Oregon and Minnesota. In Oregon 65 per cent of 110,000 students signed the petition and at the University of Minnesota over 60 per cent of 44,000 signed the petition in four days. Minnesotastudents have hired a legal director, lawyer, director of research and a physical scientist. Theseprofessionals, along with students, are presently studying state and federal agencies in charge ofenforcing consumer protection and environmental control standards. Their objectives are to fullydocument the enforcement and control activities of the agencies and to identify gaps in the enforcementpolicy. Board of Trustees okays marine center ... Western's Board of Trustees unanimously approvedThursday the initial design for a new marine study center to be built at Shannon Point, Skagit County.The center, a 15-year dream of President Charles J. Flora, will be built on an 80-acre waterfront siteowned by the college near the Anacortes ferry terminal. It will include a visitors center, residentialcomplex and a laboratory. Flora called the project one of the most important things Western has everundertaken. He is a zoology specialist and holds the rank of professor of biology in addition to hisadministrative post. David Schneider of the biology department and one of the center's planners said thefacility would fill a need for better undergraduate study in marine biology. "There is no better way to study marine biology than by getting your hands dirty with it," Schneider said. The initial building phase willcost $370,000. When it is completed, the center will be available for use by any student of any stateinstitution. ...postpones quarter change at Fairhaven ... **WW**********WW***WS The Trustees heardFairhaven Dean Kenneth Freeman respond to a y e ar-long study of the cluster college conducted by afour-member investigative committee. - Adding his own comments to those of the committee, breemansaid the general tone toward Fairhaven as a new educational concept was 'surprisingly positive." ^However, he criticized Fairhaven's residency requirement, the "medium ration" of money for Fairhavenoperation and the lack of privacy for the student residents. Freeman was enthusiastic about a plan inwhich instruction at Fairhaven would be divided into five segments for winter quarter saying the proposalwould "generate more energy and excitement." The Trustees, however, balked at accepting the idea untilthey had time to study it in more detail. ... and approves faculty code of ethics After considerabledebate, the Board approved, four-to-one, a code of ethics for Western faculty members. The new code isto be included in the faculty handbook. Dissenting was Board member Robert Winston of Spokane whoquestioned the need of a written code for faculty and didn t agree with the wording of one section onobserving college regulations. Loren Webb, chairman of the Faculty Council, defended the code. Webbsaid it had been passed by an 80 per cent majority of the Â° Mnston argued that even a 20 per centnegative vote was too high since "a faculty member voting against this would be kind of like againstmotherhood and apple pie." p ' twgwmmmKSmBemav. ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 9 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, November 9, 1971 Western Front 3 42 complaints Director of Housing Gerald Brock (at left)was kept busy with questions by irate Buchanan Towers residents last Thursday. The students haveurged a 35 per cent rent reduction. A 20 per cent reduction has been granted until the building is c o mp l e t e d . Residents attacked the housing office for its lack of furnishings, inadequate parking and thesmall apartment sizes. Residents attack Buchanan conditions Student representatives from BuchananTowers met yesterday with Gerald Brock and Pete Coy of the housing office in an attempt to iron outgrievances concerning the new $3.8 million facility which opened last week. The grievances werecontained in a list of 42 complaints presented to housing officials at a meeting held last Thursdayattended by nearly 200 Buchanan Towers residents. The majority of the complaints centered around thesize of the apartments and their furnishings. Other complaints ranged from noisy toilets to lack ofphones, drapes, carpeting and parking space. Brock said about 90 per cent of the complaints, such aslack of phones and drapes, could be resolved when the sub-contractors fulfilled their contracts. He added that the college had commitments from contractors dating back to September and the school mightassess penalty charges to those companies for not fulfilling their commitments as scheduled. AtThursday's meeting Brock told the crowd, which was squeezed into one of the Tower's recreation rooms,that they would receive a 20 per cent rent discount until the building was completed. Studentrepresentatives told Brock that they wanted a 35 per cent rent reduction and the option to break theirhousing contract if unsatisfied with the completed building. One of the student representatives, JimHintz, a sophomore from Tacoma, read a pamphlet to the crowd which the housing office had preparedearlier in the year describing the room sizes and furnishings of Buchanan Towers. "Somewhere betweenthe pamphlet's description and the construction of this building our apartment lost some 73 square feetin space," he said. "And most of the actual furnishings are completely different than the pamphletdescribed." "What we were led to believe is not what we got." Brock answered that the pamphlet wasonly an opinion of what the apartments would be like and that it was written before the furniture wasactually chosen. - Hintz asked the crowd how many would continue to live in Buchanan Towers if it werepossible to get out of their contracts with the housing office. Only a few hands were raised. Studentrepresentatives told Brock that if their demands for the rent reduction and the correction of all complaints were not met, that as a last resort, they would advocate a rent strike. Agreeing that no firm solutionscould be found that night, both sides agreed to yesterday's meeting, in hopes of finding some fastanswers to the many complaints concerning Buchanan Towers. Peace-Action Day activities in Seattledraw less than 1000 supporters By BOB BURNETT SEATTLE-This city's contribution to Saturday'snation-wide Peace Action Day activities was small. Fewer than 1,000 persons, mostly members andsupporters of a host of autonomous, small, liberal and radical groups, could be mustered for a marchfrom the Federal Courthouse to a rally at Volunteer Park. They sat on damp grass under an overcast sky to hear the usual speeches denouncing the war, calling for political reform and asking for more relief forthe poor. Only a few of the visitors to the Seattle Art Museum, a short distance away, were drawn to thecrowd, though the amplified speeches could be heard through most of the park. For some, the smallturnout signalled the beginning of the end of massed anti-war activities here. "I can't understand it," saidMary Werner, a 19-year-old University of Washington student. "Last spring we had twice as many people and a year ago you couldn't begin to count the marchers." "The problem is," said Michael Marsh, amember of the Seattle Peace Action Coalition, "that too many people are keeping their anti-war activitiesin their living rooms. "They're tired of rallies and marches. They don't think they do any good. I don'tknow, maybe they don't anymore." Saturday's march and rally were jointly sponsored by the SeattlePeace Action Coalition and the Peoples' Coalition for Peace and Justice. Other groups representedveterans' organizations, organizations for minority and women's rights and church and welfare groups.Speakers included David Colwell, pastor of the Plymouth Church, Seattle; John T. Williams, a LosAngeles Teamsters organizer; and E. B. Del Rosario, regional coordinator of the Vietnam VeteransAgainst the War.

Planweighed to ease transfer student problems By RUSS CRAVENS A new state-wide program now beingconsidered may reduce the number of problems facing future junior college transfer students. If adopted,the program would allow community college transfer students to use then-associate of arts degrees inmeeting Western's required general education courses. Ideally, all Washington community colleges willreach such agreements with all colleges and universities in the state. This type of program is not a newconcept here at Western, according to Cal Mathews, coordinator of college relations. "Western was apioneer in this area," Mathews, who has charge of incoming and outgoing transfer students, said. "As faras we can determine, Western was the first four-year institution in the nation to independently andvoluntarily offer such a program. "In March of 1967 we reached an agreement with Skagit Valley Collegeallowing that the associate of arts degree would meet all of Western's general education requirements,"Mathews said. Since then nine other community colleges have entered similar agreements with Western. To be eligible for such an agreement, the community college must include a specifically prescribedgeneral education distribution in the degree curriculum. The need for such programs is emphasized bycurrent enrollment figures. This fall 1,461 transfer students enrolled compared to 1,774 freshmen andMathews contends that during the academic year transfers will outnumber freshmen. "Almost 40 percent of the student body is comprised of transfer students and two-thirds of these are from Washingtoncommunity colleges," Mathews explained. Mathews is also chairman of the Intercollege RelationsCommission which developed and proposed the state-wide program. "We have sent the approvedguidelines to all two-year and four-year public and private schools in the state and are presently collecting institutional responses," Mathews said. "Although the commission has neither the ability nor inclinationto impose the program, institutions which endorse the guidelines and implement them into theircurriculum will be able to reach voluntary agreements." Asked about other problems facing transferstudents, Mathews said, "The number of transfer students has risen dramatically, but the number ofproblems has decreased. However, there are some transfer policies which are often misunderstood."With the exception of technical and remedial courses, most courses are fully transferable," Mathewsexplained. "However, Western (and all the state four-year colleges) requires at least half of the degreecredits be taken at a four-year college. If a student completes more than 90 credits in a two-year school,all transferable courses may be used to meet requirements, but only 90 credits apply toward the 180needed for, graduation." There are continuing studies in all states concerning transfer students, andcolleges and universities are striving to make the procedure as equitable and comprehensive as possiblefor the student, Mathews added. In the meantime however, if a student feels he has been unfairlyevaluated or encounters other transfer problems he may contact Mathews in the College Relations office,Old Main 112. â€¢aBKaHiMHiiiHiliiS ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 9 - Page 4 ---------- 4 Western Front Tuesday, November 9. 1971 Front Editorials.... To comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted' Faculty salaries evaluated Somehow it always proves a little surprising when something youlearn in a college course sheds a little light on a present-day situation. In early nineteenth centuryEngland reform of the educational system was held back because the business mind of Englishmen inthat time couldn't see any immediate returns from improving the educational system. Last Friday whencollege members petitioned the Joint Committee on Higher Education for an increase in faculty salariesthe committee (through the mouth of Seattle Rep. John Rabel) replied that Western would not get salaryraises until the public, the State Legislature (et al.) know they're getting their money's worth. It looks like a throw-back to the early nineteenth century. The question is, "How do you count up knowledge(whatever that is), in dollars and cents?" The answer is, "You can't." It appears patently ridiculous to betelling Western faculty that they won't get salary increases until they prove how good (and how is thatmeasured?) they are doing. Meanwhile other professions (including dump truck-drivers and electricians)have gotten raises all out of proportion to their relative importance to society. As Flora told theCommittee, "We're in trouble" if it's true that "hauling merchandise in trucks on highways" is moreimportant than working with the minds of young people. It's not only time that the public decides howimportant the education of its youth is, but it's time to start putting a decision into concrete form; likegranting the 10 per cent salary increase that has been requested. â€” Ron Graham WESTERN FRONTSTAFF EDITOR: Ron Graham MANAGING EDITOR: Pat Brennen ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Bob TaylorCOPY EDITOR: Carolyn Hill ASSISTANT COPY EDITOR: Howard Scott ASSISTANT COPY EDITOR:.Mickey Hull SPORTS EDITOR: Kent Sherwood PHOTO EDITOR: Jim Thomson ' PHOTOGRAPHER:Ken Ritchie EXCHANGE EDITOR: Bob McLauchlan STAFF REPORTERS Kem Akers, James Batty,John Brewington, Jim Brooks, Stephany Bruell, Robert Clark, Russ Cravens, Bill Dietrich, Jay Eckert,Brian Edwards, Walt Endicott, Steve Garvey, Sue Gawrys, Sue Graham, Jeff Hadlock, Heidi Henken, Pam Hicks Jan Hoesly, Mickey Hull, O.K.

College house-warming could be a strain on even Amy Vanderbilt's social etiquette. "What a quaint little bedroom you have. Oh,it's the broom closet." Usually you stand around drinking warm wine from a-tuna fish can and try to thinkof nice things to say about the 99 cent Woolworth painting hanging on the wall. "I just love those Big Eyes paintings, don't you?" Or, "I'll bet that painting even glows in the dark." Anyway, against my betterjudgment I went over to Mr. and Mrs. Irving Bingo's new apartment at Buchanan Bread Box, or just the Big B to its occupants. Whether the name came about from the size of the rooms or the building's uniquedesign remains unknown. I finally found a parking space just north of Burlington and took a taxi to the Big B where Irving greeted me on the street corner. He hoisted me onto his back and carried me over theswamp surrounding the front door. Irving explained that future plans call for a draw-bridge and a moat filled with crocodiles, sort of a built-in watch dog. As we walked in the entrance, I noticed two residentspoking moth balls around a pool table with their fingers. "The pool table came last month," Irving said,"but the sticks and balls won't be here for a couple of years, so we made do with what we have." Therewere other people standing around, swatting the air with their hands. "That's where the Ping-Pong tablesare supposed to go, but nothing is here yet," Irving explained. "A lot of strikes, you know." We walkedover to the elevator and Irving gave the wall a sharp kick. "Okay, George, haul her up," he shouted. As the elevator started to slowly climb I heard a moaning and groaning from underneath. "Another strikeprevented the elevator motors from getting here on time, so each resident has to take a turn at hauling itup," Irving told me. "Today is George of 118-b's turn. Me and the little women get it on Saturdays." Theelevator came to a creaky halt on the sixth floor and Irving gave it two sharp kicks as we got out, "just tolet George know wÂ« made it okay." The elevator immediately dropped the full six floors, probablycrushing George when it hit the bottom. We squeezed our way down the hallway. Irving stopped in frontof a door, took out his key, inserted it and rattled the door knob. "Stand back, Zooie, we're coming in "and with this word of warning Irving backed a few paces and flew at the door like a linebacker for GreenBay. The door didn't budge an inch, but Irving went bounding out to the hallway. "It's a little sticky," heexplained sheepishly. "Maybe if we both took a try at it." So we both backed off a little and threwshoulder blocks into the door and the hinges gave way. Irving ended up under the kitchen table and Iended up halfway through the kitchen window, staring six stories down. "What do you think of it?" ZooieBingo asked as she pulled on my l e 8 S - â€¢ â€¢ -x T -A As I was already prepared for the house-warming circuit, 1 said, "Very nice, rather rustic, Zooie, simple design, good taste," all the while hangingout the window. But once inside I was confronted by Zooie and Irving, nose-to-nose. Combination kitchen, dining and living room was so small this was the only possible position for us to talk. Zooie pouredsome-traditional warm wine into three tuna fish cans and directed me over to a big cloth blob that lookedlike a mutant marshmallow. She called it a "bean bag sofa," but it still looked like a mutant marshmallow. I carefully sat down on it and rolled off onto the floor. Not to let some oversized marshmallow get thebetter of me, I tried again. This time the marshmallow swallowed me alive. After being helped out, Ielected to sit on one of the chairs. It was stamped "Washington Golden Apples." So sitting in a tight little circle we drank our wine and tried to think of nice things to say about the apartment. After about a half-hour of nothing but "hmmmms," Irving said happily, We have a fire extinguisher in our bathroom. Do you?" No I had to admit, I didn't even have a fire extinguisher in my whole house. More silence followed, then Icasually asked why there were wires hanging out of the wall. +- w Â» "It's for the telephone, but youknow how it is with the strikes Irving said. "But look what I hooked up." He went over to the cupboard and pulled out two soup cans and a string. Irving handed me a can and-ran into the bedroom jfetching thestring taut. Although I'm not sure, I think Irving said, What has God wrought?" as his opening sentence.Zooie just rolled her eyes. "There's really not that much to do around here," she said. Handing the canover to Zooie I quietly tip-toed out of toe apartment I looked back and Zooie was talking with Irving in thesoup can, making plans to go down and play pool later on that rught. A sharp kick on the elevator doorbrought it up to the sixth floor. Once down I joined two fellows in a game of finger pool, but declined anoffer to swat at the air in make believe Ping-Pong. As I waded out the door, a small crowd was juststarting to march around the building playing "Joshua at the Battle of Jericho on horns. They said theywould do it until the walls came tumbling ,down. . . . â€¢ _ ,". ,t ''' ' I wished them luck.

To wait until the last minuteand then engage in emotion-laden, flamboyant, grandstand plays which are superficial, naive and trite,demonstrates a total lack of understanding of how social change (or even "revolution") is achieved and alack of dedication, continuous concern and commitment required to achieve it.

'Man for all seasons' to open on ThursdayWestern's production of the prize-winning play "A Man for All Seasons" will be presented at 8:15 onThursday, Friday and Saturday in the Music Auditorium. Admission price for students will be 50 cents;general admission will be $1.50. The two and one-half hour long play is about Sir Thomas More and hisrelationship to King Henry VIII of England. More was Henry's lord chancellor and friend, but he couldn'taccept Henry's divorce and was consequently executed for his beliefs. Thomas Napiecinski, the play'sdirector, thinks the play is quite relevant to today and will appeal to many kinds of audiences. "It is aboutthe individual consciousness, with a man being true to what he believes," he said. "A Man for AllSeasons" was written by Robert Bolt who won a Toni Award for the Broadway production and anAcademy Award for the movie version. Napiecinski thinks that Bolt tried to do more than just write agood play, though. "I think he was interested in finding something in an historical perspective in order tosay something about modern man," he said. "For example, that man should regain a sense of self." Thisproduction will be presented in Portland at a regional qualifying contest for a nation-wide college theatrecontest sometime in January.

Prof says college education not essential for jobs By MARGARET LICHTER "The idea that you need to have a college education to get a goodjob is really erroneous," Paul Woodring of the psychology department and Fairhaven College said."Eighty per cent of jobs today don't require a college degree and to say that they are any lessrespectable than the other 20 per cent is snobbish." Woodring pointed out that many students are notgoing to get the kind of jobs that they think a college education will bring, and therefore, these studentsshouldn't be in college. "We went through a period when we made the mistake of urging everyone toattend college," Woodring said. "It is good experience for some, but can be an equally bad experience for those who aren't interested in learning. ,1 don't think anyone who decides to be a drop-out for his ownreasons should hesitate. Everyone terminates his formal education at some time, and should.do sowhen the benefits nolonger outweigh the alternatives." Woodring thought however that seriously seekinga liberal arts education for the sake of the experience are entitled to it, just as much as those preparingfor a job. He strongly supported the trend that the state should provide an education at a higherinstitution for the student that can substantiate the desire and need. Woodring doesn't think the jobshortage is extremely serious today. He feels there is about an equal shortage between jobs that do anddo not require college. He mentioned that one reason students notice the shortage of jobs more today is that recruiters aren't coming around to the students any more, the students have to go looking for jobs.When asked if he felt that Western met the needs of the students, Woodring said that he was confidentthat Western was one of the better colleges of its kind. He added however, that the question of anycollege meeting the needs of the students today is open to debate. "We're lucky here," Woodring said,"because we have a lot of really bright students. In the East the better students go to private schools and the rest go to public institutions. From our area, however, 1 think Western has a very stimulating portion of the student population.". Paul Woodring of the psychology department and Fairhaven College, saidthat a college education is not needed for a good job. WUD AT LAST! DRUG ITEMS BROUGHT TOYOU AT REDUCED PRICES.

At an organizational meeting held last Wednesday, Laurie Eyer, food bankcoordinator, outlined the plight of the hungry people of Whatcom County. Citing welfare departmentstatistics, Eyers said that 12,000 people in Whatcom County are at or below the poverty level; 7,000 ofthose persons live in Bellingham. Many of these people are not eligible for food stamps or are unaware ofthe program. At present, two food banks serve Whatcom County. The Bellingham bank located at 209Prospect served 79 families last month, according to Eyers. For every person applying for food stamps,12 persons are in need but are "too ashamed" to apply for them, according to Eyer, a senior bank driveNov. 20 majoring in social work. While not being the answer to the hunger problem in Whatcom County,the food banks can help alleviate the problem," he said. In addition to the food drive, other means toreplenish the banks' food supply may include: â€”persuading local merchants to donate food. â€”settingup collection points at local food stores. â€”asking local farmers for surplus food. â€”seeking closer tieswith the Bellingham Food Co-op. Plans also call for opening two more food banks as soon as volunteerscan be found and food can be made available. In addition, volunteers are needed to form a speaker'sbureau on hunger to talk to interested civic groups and to go door to door on the drive.

This view was brought up during the secondpanel discussion of "The Making of a Counter Culture" by Theodore Roszak. Homer Weiner of the artdepartment said that Amchitka is " a good example of the idiocy of the technocracy." Ken Ritchie, ajournalism major, said that the reaction of the American people to Amchitka has been of turning offcompletely, another technocracy characteristic. Paul Tholfsen of the physics department had a differentviewpoint: that Amchitka is a typical example of the bureaucracy found in politics. There wasdisagreement among the three panel members about the point of the book. Tholfsen thought it offered nosolution except retreat to the problems brought on by an overpowering technocracy. But Weiner thoughtthe author was saying that we must find new ways to become involved in the world, looking at the worldas though we're part of it, instead of being controlled by it. He saw a need to get away from the objectivity of the scientist into an active involvement. Ritchie said that the book didn't cover many aspects of thecounter-culture, such as the new music. Tholfsen distinguished between scientists and technocrats: thefirst try to learn how nature works and the second produce and don't worry about the results. He pointedout that many scientists are thinking about social responsibilities, but he maintained that the best way to change technocracy is by people who know it well and can expose its vulnerabilities . . . the scientists.He said the author was wrong in criticising the scientific world view. Weiner said that the author didn'twant to eliminate science, but did want to move it out of the center of emphasis. He admitted that hewanted science to maintain the good things of life. "We shouldn't get those scientists too mad, only theycan give us a non-polluting car, better than no car at all," he said. That's all right.

Pacific Northwest Bell Fairhaven town Group fights road from port to I-5 A group, organized by Bill Heidand other Fairhaven College faculty members, is fighting to preserve Happy Valley and old Fairhaven as it is now. The group, its membership at the present time made up mostly of Fairhaven College facultymembers and students, hopes to save Padden Creek and the surrounding area from a proposed four lane highway link connecting the Fairhaven waterfront area to Interstate 5. The highway was first granted funds in 1967 by the State Legislature.Its purpose is to develop direct access from the freeway to the proposed industrial park on Bellingham's South Side. The park was designated for the Fairhaven area becauseBellingham Bay is deep enough there to provide for a true deep-water port. A public hearing was held onthe matter in 1969. Various routes were debated, but whether a highway should exist at all was notdiscussed with the public, the group claims. The discussions ended with a decision by the State Highway Department to use a route that cut straight across Happy Valley, not following any of the existing roads. Its construction is slated for next summer and fall. The highway department has already obtained 28 ofthe needed 36 parcels of land-for the road. The group feels that the public wasn't given enough say in the development of the road. The group itself began to act only a few weeks ago and fears it may be too late.But if it can't block the highway, it hopes to at least modify it in order to help preserve the semi-ruralnature of Happy Valley and also to keep the road's water runoff from going into Padden Creek, as is nowplanned. The groups admits that many of the people of Bellingham want the highway. It will probablyraise land values in the area and help bring added industry, people and income into Bellingham, raisingthe city's tax base. But the group envisions a different South Side. It wants any development to be morein the line of parks and foot, bicycle and horse trails. They see the road as the first step toindustrialization of the area in which they live. They hope to get the other residents of Happy Valley ontheir side. A community meeting is planned for Monday, Nov. 15, to discuss the road. By that time thegroup hopes to have their information complete on the highway.

"Unfortunately both are in plentiful supply on.the world market," said Eric Thomson,a former Peace Corps volunteer. "I was assigned to Sebba, a town of about 750 persons, located about400 kilometers from the capital. "Women were carrying their water about 45 kilometers, even that waterwas contaminated by human and cattle waste so we dug a well." "The location for the well was chosen by witching. The natives have enough faith and tenacity to keep on digging, some wells get down to 300feet, we only had to go about 100 feet. "We try to involve the community in what ever host country we are in order to avoid dependency." Both school and well construction were financed by UNESCO andOxfam. UNESCO is the United Stations Economic, Social and Cultural Organization. Oxfam originatedat England's Oxford University to combat famine. Its fund raising activities have now spread throughout the British Empire. "Another of the situations at Sebba that we tried to correct was the lack of fresh food."Thomson tried to teach the people how to plant their own gardens and orchards, to raise poultry and howto bake bread. "But even the flour for baking had to be imported." He said, "Upper Volta, Chad andDahomey are about the most underdeveloped countries in the world. The entire national budget for UpperVolta is $30 million, but they do manage to have a 10,000 man army. There are less than two dozensecondary schools in the entire country. For a population of 5 million there are 27 doctors." Because ofthe physician shortage, many of the Peace Corps workers were doing clinic type work to fill the gap. "InSebba about two out of five children would die before reaching the age of four," said Thomson. "The peace corps is trying as much as possible to allow the people to learn subsistence farming. This way UpperVolta can avoid a migration of natives to the few large cities." He added that other underdevelopedcountries have enormous slums because of such a migration. "What most of these countries need arepersons skilled in crafts such as farming, fishing, education, business, math and science, or homeeconomics. That's why we are on campus this week, to answer questions of people with these skills."Thomson is team leader for ACTION, which is the agency combining both Peace Corps and Vistaprograms, he and other volunteers are in the VU foyer this week.

The state's first four yearlearning institution in 72 years was expected to open Sept. 27. Complications arose when workstoppages delayed construction and the opening date had to be moved back to Oct. 4. When theresidence halls and other key facilities were not ready by the projected date, off campus classroomswere set up. The library, which is the key learning center at Evergreen, will include a learning resourcescenter for'self-paced institutional programs, t.v. studios, graphics work areas, photography laboratories,offices, study carrels, stacks, lounges and lobby space. The 337,000 foot library also will have 50seminar rooms, faculty, administrative and clerical offices, a print shop, art laboratories, a computercenter, a temporary bookstore, a temporary roof-top kitchen-dining area, an art gallery, conference rooms and storage space. The dining area will be connected with the snack bar later. Other buildings set to be completed in January are the college activities building, the seminar building, a drama-music-art building, a recreation building, a health services complex and a fire station operated by the local fire department.The roads on the Evergreen campus are now accessible to traffic. OEO grants $126,000 to Westernprogram Approximately one hundred students working in New Careers programs throughout Washingtonwill benefit from a grant of $126,000 recently awarded to the Center for Continuing Studies at Western.The New Careers program, sponsored by the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO), was formed fouryears ago to improve the quality of public services in such state agencies as welfare, adult and juvenileparole, and employment security. The program provides a limited number of professional positions inthese agencies for persons who have previously been recipients of the agencies' services. Eachindividual will work three days a week while taking Western extension courses in his' home area,receiving college credit for both. Past experience with the program shows that low income persons whohave lived in poverty, have served in correctional institutions or have received welfare often have anunderstanding of the agencies' clients which makes them more effective on the job. Western hasparticipated in the program through the Center of Continuing Studies since it was first started. During thefirst two years, four other state institutions of higher education offered college training. Last year, thestate OEO office concentrated all of its efforts at Western. The new grant provides college credit andremedial work for a 13-month period. The ages of student participants range from 26 to 50 years. F. R.Feringer, director of Continuing Studies, has been in charge of the program at Western from itsbeginning. Letters from our readers More defense on Symposium (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5) Editor: We would like to respond to Teri Pechthalt's commentary on the Women's Symposium andlesbianism. Because Miss Pechthalt does not feel concordance with some or all of the views held byWomen's liberation, she asserts that they offer no alternatives. It seems that the point she has missedis that an alternative involves choice. Freedom to choose one's lifestyle through removal of stigma, fearof condemnation and misunderstanding is what is being offered by Women's liberation. Beck and Valwere speaking of this in reference to sexual preference. If Miss Pechthalt is satisfied and secure in herrole, why then is she so upset about the roles other people choose? And if she is in doubt about thecommon ground shared by Black and gay people, we suggest she ask both about ignorance andintolerance. Lynn and David MacDonald Psychology and Education Editor: To Teri Pechthalt, who d e s c r i b e d the Women's Symposium as ' \ . . the circus" ". . . farce", ''. . . insult." What is truly an insultto the intelligence is to realize that Women's Liberation and Gay Liberation should "confine themselves . . . until they have something more constructive and less insulting to offer" . . . or, until they say whatTeri Pechthalt thinks they should say.

Suzanne J. Sexton freshman Ruggers fall to Bulldogs The WesternRugby Club lost its first match of the season, Saturday, falling to the Old Puget Sound Bulldogs ofSeattle, 15-12. Scoring in the final minutes, the Bulldogs came from behind to win the very closecontest, played in Seattle. Despite the loss, the Vikings are still tied for the league lead with a pair ofteams which have already fallen to Western. Handball classes Handball and racquetball classes began at the Bellingham YMCA Oct. 23. Handball classes begin at 10 a.m.; raquetball at 11 a.m. Thelessons cost $10 for non-YMCA members but are free to members. T h e r e w i l l be approximately 10lessons given, with a possible tournament following the last session. Both men and women arewelcome and there is no age or class-size limit. Nick Rocco, a Western student is teaching bothclasses. Student membership to the YMCA is $40 per year. The Sporting Word Looking forward toKansas City By KENT SHERWOOD Sports Editor Actually, it's difficult to believe that anyone wouldreally WANT to go to a place like Kansas City, Missouri. After all, the Midwest in March almost makesEllensburg appealing, and KC as a metropolitan area hardly exudes the aura of, say, Broadway in NewYork or the Sunset Strip in Los Angeles, or even the Center in Seattle. But there is still a group of youngmen over in Carver Gymnasium who can think of no better place to be come March than in that GreatPlains city trying to put a globular leather ball through a circular orange hoop. You see, Kansas City isthe annual site of the NAIA national basketball championship tournament. And it is the considered opinion of this group of gentlemen that they belong wherever that tourney is held. Western's basketball squad is that group of gentlemen and they have been having trouble keeping their minds off the possibilities ofmaking the trip east. Last season the Vikings posted a 20-6 won-lost record and finished in a tie withCentral for the Evergreen Conference title. Unfortunately, two of those six defeats were to the Wildcats,and thus Central made its fifth straight journey to the NAIA fun fest. That record for the Viks was the best in Western history and coach Chuck Randall still isn't satisfied. "We have the opportunity," Randall said, "to become the best team in the history of the conference. There is no way this team can lose if theykeep their minds on the team they're playing." Western fans have some good reasons to have beenimpatient during the summer and fall. Of last year's team, only five graduated. Only one, Neil Larson, was a steady starter. Other grads, Terry Brower and John Reed were sometime starters, but Brower went inwhen Larson was injured and Reed took over for center Rudy Thomas after the latter had anappendectomy, an operation which forced him to miss the crucial second Central game in Ellensburg. To replace Larson, Randall recruited only one junior college player, but got the pick of the crop when helanded Tom Bradley from Walla Walla CC. Bradley was named the most valuable player in the state's CC tournament last season. Bradley and Thomas will team up with other returning starters Mike Franza andforwards Gary White and Lee Roy Shults. White, this year's captain, led the Viks last year in nearlyevery category possible. Franza's outside shooting and defense should make the 6-1 junior one of Evco'smost well-rounded guards. Shults' best attribute is his appearance. At 6-5, 220, the Vancouver seniorlooks like the big blonde brother of Dick Butkis, rather than a basketball player. But after Shults pops acouple from the 20-foot mark, opponents quickly discover that basketball is his true calling. Add a finebench of players like Mike Preston, Chip Kohr, Roger Fuson and junior varsity returnees Mike Buza, TomMount and Bob Nicol and the Viks should have the formula to earn the ticket to KC. But thechampionship will not come automatically. Eastern Washington also has a fine team returning andCentral can never be counted out. "The biggest thing we have to learn," Randall commented, "will behumbleness. We should be able to lick anybody we play, but on any given night, any team can get beat.We'll have to respect every ball club we play." The team is far from overwhelmingly tall with Thomas thetallest at 6-7. But the team desire is there. The fans can even sense it as the cagers' practices have been drawing anywhere from 10 to 30 people a day. Western has a tough schedule to play this year, and it all starts on Dec. 1 with a home game against St. Martin's. That's 22 days away. It's been nearly a year ofwaiting for this season to start and the hoopsters are almost counting the minutes for those 22 days topass. The enthusiasm and team attitude is such that the Vikings feel that they have the tools to beatnearly anyone. Randall said he would like to play the University of Washington this year. He thinks thatWestern would give them a real tussle and have a good chance at winning. But, when you have a chance to visit a garden spot like Kansas City, why make a side trip to a hamlet like Seattle? ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 9 - Page 11 ---------- Tuesday, November 9, 1971 Western Front 11 'Altitude hurt' - Bowman Roadrunners third at conferencemeet Afflicted by illness and altitude, Western's cross country team took third place in the EvergreenConference championships at Ashland, Ore., Saturday. Led by Steve Lippitt in ninth place, the Vikingsgarnered 65 points to rank behind Eastern Washington and Central Washington which tied for first with54 points low score winning. Three Eastern Washington runners tied for the top spot as Bob Maplestone, NAIA mile champion, waited for teammates Barry Jahn and Joe Ross to cross the finish with him in27:03. "We were hurt by the altitude," said Coach Dick Bowman. "It was the difference between Centraland us." Ashland is over 2,000 feet above sea level. A case of flu hampered Viking Mike Shaw'sperformance as he finished 21st, Bowman said. Other Western runners were: 11, Russ Fuller; 13, BillRathvon; 14, Tim Tubbs; 18, Paul Scovel; and 19, Rich Rathvon. Bowman said he wasn't disappointed by his team's showing, commenting that due to the wind, all times at the meet were bad. All seven Viksfinished the windy, hilly course within a one minute span, crossing the line in between 28 and 29minutes. Exact times were not available from race officials. Western was denied a chance at secondplace when two Central runners edged Lippitt taking seventh and eighth place. The final Evco standingsshow: 1, Eastern Washington and Central Washington (tie) 54 points; 3, Western, 65; 4, SouthernOregon, 66; 5, Oregon College of Education, 111;-6, Oregon Tech, 188; and 7, Eastern Oregon, 193. Joe Peterson (right) slides in to kick the ball away from his University of Washington opponent. Peterson,who played well on defense, also scored two goals in leading Western to a 5-1 triumph over the Huskies! Booters batter Huskies, move into first-place By BOB TAYLOR Western's soccer club took a giant step toward its fourth straight Western Soccer Conference championship, with a 5-1 triumph over theUniversity of Washington (UW) Saturday at Battersby Field. By playing near-perfect soccer, the Vikingscame out on top in the contest between the league's co-leaders. Both Western and the UW entered thegame with 13 points. Crisp passing, brilliant play by the offensive line that controlled the ball at mid-fieldmost of the game, and tough defensive play by the fullbacks and the goalie were all keys to the Westernvictory. Three of the Western scores came following throw-ins by Bill Carr. It was a Carr throw-in, withonly five minutes gone in the first half, that led to the Vikings' first goal. The Olympia senior flung a longpass from out-of-bounds about 25 yards away towards the UW goal. Carr's monstrous pass was thenheaded into the net by Joe Peterson. Later in the first-half, Glenn Hindin gave Western its 2-0 halftimelead, on an outstanding individual effort. The speedy senior from Vancouver, B.C., took a long pass atmid-field, dribbled a few steps before he was met by a Husky fullback, he then faked the UW defender by moving one way and going the other. Hindin broke in the clear 20 yards away from the Husky goal,dribbled the ball a few steps and punched the ball past the helpless UW goalie. The Vikings, whodominated the play in the first half, had some tense moments early in the second period, when theHuskies cut the Western lead to 2-1. Ironically it was a throw-in by the UW that led to the Huskies'score. Scott Goodrich got Washington's goal. Following its goal, the Huskies threatened the Western netseveral times in the next 10 minutes. Washington's efforts, however, were in vain, as goalie Dan Gregorymade some game-saving stops. In one clutch play, a Husky player booted a hard shot targeted for theinside right-hand corner of the goal, but Gregory dove to stop the ball. As the ball rolled from his chest,and Washington players starting to converged on it, Gregory quickly recovered and outraced hisopponents to get the ball. Gregory's stop then sparked the Viks' as Western moved upfield to score itsthird goal of the game. Gary Byran got the goal, following another long throw-in by Carr. Then on anotherone of many spectacular plays by Western, Hindin booted a long pass to Manfred Kuerstan who brokeinto the open 30 yards from the UW goal and scored on the breakaway. Western added the clincher with10 minutes remaining in the contest, when Peterson scored his second goal on a headshot following aCarr throw-in. The Viks, now 7-2-1, outshot the Huskies 31-17. Western will have the week off beforemeeting its next conference foe, Seattle U. in Seattle on Nov. 17. The Vikings wind up their leagueseason on Nov. 20 against British Columbia Institute of Technology at home. Gridders clip OwlsShaking off an early bit of lethargic playing, Western came back to rout the Oregon Tech Owls, 42-2,Saturday in Klamath Falls, Ore. The win makes the Viks 6-2 for the year and gives them a finalEvergreen Conference record of 6-0, having already won the league championship. The Owls, who nowhave an 0-3 league mark and 0-7 for the year, tallied first when Viking halfback Steve Skogmo wasdropped in his own endzone for a safety. Skogmo had retreated past the goal line to recover a fumble.OTI led at the end of the first quarter, 2-0. However, Western retaliated with two second period TD's totake the lead for good. While not exactly blowing Tech off the field in the first half, the Viks did establishtheir superiority. The Big Blue got on the score board first on a 15-yard pass from quarterback GlennHadland to Graham Haight. Tom Wigg capped the Vikings' second drive of the period by bulling over from the one, giving Western a 14-2 lead at the half. Cecil Simms scored the only TD of the third period on a 30-yard pass from Viking reserve quarterback Marshall Torre. Skogmo had a pair of scores in the finalstanza on a 65-yard punt return and an aerial from Hadland. Hadland completed Western's scoring witha 16-yard keeper. Lance Wilson's toe was again accurate for the Viks, as he connected for all sixconversion attempts. Hadland completed 13 passes in 23 tries for 175 yards, his best afternoon of theseason. Wigg again broke the 100-yards barrier with 118 in 23 carries. Wigg, Evco's leading rusher andscorer, now has 971 yards and 66 points in eight games. The Viks had three touchdowns and a healthy amount of rushing yardage nullified by penalties. But the Western offense racked up 210 yards throughthe air, 163 yards on the ground and 23 first downs. The Viking Stop Department did just that as theylimited the Owls to two yards passing, 52 rushing and four first downs.

Flora got a passing grade in external affairs, but is failing to deal with Western's internalproblems effectively, according to the Sauer committee report released Friday. The" Sauer Committee,which is officially called the Faculty Council C o m m i t t e e to Evaluate the Administration, wasappointed this fall to do an in-depth report on the structure of the administration and the e f f e c t i v e ne s s of individual â€¢administrators. Part of the report was released to the All-College Senate and thepublic after Thursday's Faculty Council meeting. Part of the report will remain confidential. Incommissioning and releasing the report, the Faculty Council "does not want to play political football,"Faculty Council Secretary Art Kimmel said, but does want change very much. The report said Flora isreasonably effective in dealing with outside agencies, such as the legislature and the Council on HigherEducation. Flora got a bad rating on his handling of internal affairs from both the faculty and the Sauercommittee. The report blames the faculty's discontent on the difference between faculty expectationsabout their role and importance in college governance and the way Western is really run. President Flora sees himself as "the primary policy making force" of the college, while the faculty believes thecommittees and councils on campus should have the final say in some policy matters, the report said.The input Flora gets from the various groups on campus is "totally subject to his review and interpretation . . . any decision by any committee or council on this campus is only final and binding when .and if thePresident finds the decision' acceptable, or to his liking," according to the report. The keyrecommendations of the SAUER GRIPES-John Sauer of psychology (left) headed a faculty committeethat gave President Charles Flora (right) a passing grade in handling outsiders but flunked him in hishandling of internal affairs. report were sent to the All College Senate and made public after Thursday'sFaculty Council meeting. An additional part of the report, including the complete evaluation of PresidentFlora and a summary of a faculty questionnaire on the administration, will be sent to the Board ofTrustees. If Flora ignores the proposals the Board of Trustees can act on them. But if the Board rejectsthe report, there is no higher authority. Rejection of the entire report "will be a disaster for the institution," Faculty Council Chairman Knute Skinner said Friday. The 'report lists two plans of action for the faulty.One plan assumes that the suggestions for administrative reorganization in the Sauer report will beaccepted by Flora. One assumes he will reject them. If Flora wants to meet the expectations of thefaculty by accepting the Sauer Report he should: -stop relying on the small group of senior deans known as the "six-pack" and install a Vice President for Academic Affairs, â€”let the Vice President forAcademic Affairs take care of curricular matters, -have the Dean of Graduate School and the Dean forResearch and Grants report directly and only to the Academic Vice President, while the Dean ofStudents and Business Manager continue to report to the president. -clarify the status of the ctustercolleges, in terms of their importance to the college, -assess the All-College Senate, -poll the faculty todetermine which body will represent faculty concerns. If the report is ignored, the Sauer committeerecommends that the faculty seek "some means of direct representation to the Board of T r u s t e e s ," presumably collective bargaining. The Board of Trustees should pay "particular attention to theoccurrence of clearly maladaptive and disruptive activities" which the committee feels Flora couldcommit if present policies are continued. The Sauer Committee Report also evaluated the Dean of theGraduate School, Dean of Arts and Sciences, Dean for Research and Grants, and the Dean of Students.

Artist twirls'Dial' "I don't really know what the world is all about, but Ihave the audacityâ€”or naiveteâ€”to invent a system, as anyone'can, that shows how the world works."Allan Kaprow, artist, critic and inventor of the happening, was speaking to an audience of 50 peopleFriday night, discussing the happening called "Dial" that he had organized and carried out that afternoon. About 30 people, most of them Western students, had participated in "Dial", and another 20experienced "Scales" after Kaprow's talk. "Dial" directed four teams to a total of 16 telephone booths inBellingham, where a relay of calls was set up.

(W.C.R.O.I.) is, at this point, still in its idea stage; but through the work of primaryinnovators Barry Maddocks, president of the organization, and Dan Boyer, Temporary Chairman of theBoard of Directors, it is struggling to become a reality. Purposes for the program are dual. In addition tothe obvious one of reducing urban wastes through the process of recycling, it will endeavor to train thehandicapped in skills which will be valuable to them in transferring to jobs in regular industry. It seeks topromote the handicapped and to fight for improvement of the conditions under which they now live.Maddocks has been instrumental in working out the structure and plans for the recycling center. At aspaghetti dinner held to promote the cause on Feb. 22, he anumerated areas that he felt should beincluded in urban waste reduction. As it stands now the program is quite a bit more extensive than theone previously established by Huxley. Research will be done in areas such as cars and plastics. Pick-up points will be established in Whatcom County. Contracts will be obtained with a number of beerdistributors to establish a centralized redemption center. Attempts will be made to find bigger and bettermarkets for recycled materials. Organic wastes will be composted into fertilizer for farmers. A programwill be instituted to pick up litter. It is hoped that this program will eventually be combined with Huxley'sinitial attempt. Maddock's stressed the point that the focus of W.C.R.O.I. in training the handicapped willbe "to find out what the person can do, not what he can't do, then putting him to work in those areas,eliminating all bad work habits, and finally speeding up his work." People will be trained to do janitorialand secretarial work and to perform hand and machine labor. He has been speaking to variousorganizations about recruiting handicapped persons, but as yet has had no results. Public help is vital tothe success of this organization. After it is established, anyone can assist by bringing wastes and small, simple jobs to the workshop, by calling in for waste pick-up service, or by giving donations. Right now,people are needed who are willing to assist on a volunteer basis, to foster ideas and work them outthrough research, to fight for the betterment of all handicapped conditions in Whatcom County andWashington State, and to help in the formation of a permanent Board of Directors of handicappedpersons for this non-profit corporation. Interested persons should attend meetings held each Mondaynight at 7:30 in Room 10 of the Viking Union. Professor takes part in seminar David Ziegler, assistantprofessor of political science, has returned from Washington, D.C. where he participated in a Scholar-Diplomat Seminar in P o l i t i c o - M i l i t a r y Affairs February 12-16. The seminars, sponsored by the U.S. State Department, originated in 1969. The State Department accepts applicant scholars fromaround the country and pairs them with department bureaucrats during the seminar. The seminars are"supposed to be a two-way exchange," said Ziegler. The State Department gets new input and ideas,and in turn hopes for a better public image. The four-day program includes panel discussions and StateDepartment tours. This session's panels discussed such Vice presidential candidate to keynote atsymposium DAVID ZIEGLER topics as the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT). Ziegler said theState Department thinks the seminars are successful. He personally feels, "It is great. It stimulated meso much I am going to take a year to absorb it." Education field program receives national award W e st e r n ' s e d u c a t i on department has received a distinguished achievement award for a field-centeredpublic school program. The program, Project Turn About, is operated in conjunction with the Everettpublic schools. Western was one of five schools throughout the nation to receive an award. Herbert Hite, education department chairman, accepted the award in Chicago last week at the national convention ofthe American Association of Colleges for Teacher education. Project Turn About, which began in the fall of 1971, is aimed at increasing academic and social skills of 525 low-income central area studentsfrom kindergarten through fifth grade at Garfield Elementary School in Everett. Fifty-eight Westernstudents are earning provisional teaching certificates by working in the program. In the projectclassrooms, there is an average of one adult for every six children. Because of the increased number ofprofessionals that work with the children and the concentration on their individual needs, the childrenprogress at a faster rate than they would otherwise. As a result of the program, rates of learning amongthe children have increased, especially in the area of reading skills. Absenteeism, tardiness andfrequency of disruptive behavior have decreased. Director of the project is Arthur Hoisington, associateprofessor of education at Western. Others involved include Grant Martin, assistant professor ofeducation; Dorothy Slaten, associate professor of education; and Ann Mingo, lecturer in education. This is the second year in a row that Western's education department has been honored with such an award. Last year it received recognition for a similar program in Seattle. Frances "Sissy" Farenthold, runnerupfor the Democratic vice presidential nomination last year and newly elected chairperson for the NationalWomen's Political Caucus, will visit Western April 4. Farenthold will be the keynote speaker of awomen's, career symposium and life goals workshop to be held on Western's campus March 31 to April4. The purpose of the symposium and workshop, sponsored by Western's Women's Commission, is toprovide a new look at career opportunities for women of all ages and all life styles. Finishing second toSen. Tom Eagleton in the vice presidential nomination at the Democratic Convention, Farenthold received 420 votes at the convention, more than both former Governor Endicott Peabody of Massachusetts andSen. Mike Gravel of Alaska. Her main support came from women, black, Spanish-speaking and youthdelegates. Farenthold, an attorney, was elected to the Texas State House of Representatives in 1968,and in 1972 she ran unsuccessfully for governor. In her new job as chairperson of the National Women'sPolitical Caucus, Farenthold will be responsible for building up an organization whose purpose is to getmore women into politics. She will address the women at Western's careers symposium next quarter, atleast in part, about potential political careers. Farenthold will be the last, and the most well-knownnationally, of about six women speaking about careers in art, business, law, "people service," homeeconomics, skilled labor, science and medicine. The symposium is not just another review of traditionalcareers for women, the Women's Commission said. New opportunities in traditional areas will beemphasized, for instance, consumer affairs rather than teaching, in the area of home economics.

The accident occurred near Tunnel Cove on Bellingham Bay.SISSYâ€”Frances Farenthold, runnerup for the Democratic vice presidential nomination last year, willspeak at Western. and alternative vocations will also be explored. The life goals workshop, which willprecede the symposium, will be a time for women who are not sure of their future to receive individualdirection planning for careers and new life styles, said Sandy Wellner, a planner for the workshop. MaryMcCabe, a professional counselor from Seattle who has conducted several human awareness seminars,will lead the workshop. Applications for the workshop are $3 and are available in the Associate Dean ofStudents Mary Robinson's office in Old Main 213. Flora: 'salaries too low' Last week before the SenateWays and Means Committee, Western's President Charles J. Flora called both the college faculty'ssalaries and a proposed pay increase below average. Flora said the average salary at Western is$13,000, $1,935 below an average of seven states studied in a Council on Higher Education review lastyear. Gov. Dan Evans has proposed increases of four per cent immediately, three per cent Jan. 1, 1974, and improvements in health and retirement benefits for college employes for the biennium. Florapointed out that were the seven states to continue on a straight-line basis, and the governor's proposalsto be adopted, Western's faculty would still be 12 per cent under the average. At present, thepercentage difference is 14.88. Other items of concern are library acquisitions and staffing and totalbudgetary support for higher education. ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 27 - Page 3 ---------- :uesday, gt;Rebr;u9ry 27, .1973 Western Front 3 Students join 'Dial1 (continued from page 1) WANTED BY THE FCCâ€”Fairhaven College's underground radio station could technically be illegal. But theoperation is so portable that it can disappear if inspectors come around. AM station at Fairhaven byMICHELE RAYMOND Whatcom County's only underground radio station transmits from FairhavenCollege's Dorm 9 every evening, emitting strange sounds unheard by the FCC. Set up by sophomorePaul deArmond, the block radio station is picked up by four of Fairhaven's twelve residence halls with its tiny XA watt transmitter. "There is a crisis in the s y s t e m of information exchange," said deArmond. "The people hear noise on the air, and it doesn't mean anything . . . the medium is locked up incommercial interests." The purpose in creating the radio station was to enable students to have theirown broadcasting unit not subject to Federal Communi cation Commission regulations, he said. A block radio station is one which transmits to no more than a few blocks area. As long as its air waves do notinterfere with other stations' frequencies, it need not be licensed by the FCC. The community is the only controller of what is broadcast. Fairhaven's station, which, as of yet, does not have a call number, hasbeen on the air for most of the quarter. Any student who wishes may sign up for a one-hour program and present almost anything he wants. Students may receive independent study credit for taping showsand airing them, deArmond said. Some of the programs presented so far have included acid rock,nostalgic hits, interviews and stories. The main problem the station's coordinators have encountered sofar has been the transmitter. Program Director Marc Welt said, "We don't have enough power to get aclear reception even at Fairhaven. The little one just doesn't make it." They need about $150 to obtainthe quality of equipment they would like. DeArmond said they have received pledges from facultymembers, but very little actual "green stuff." He added that by the end of the quarter they will have a 10watt transmitter "somehow," even though "the signal will be uneven." There could be some doubt,however, as to whether 10 watts would be picked up by Western only, as air waves are difficult tocontrol. "We're not worried," said Welt, "we're so portable, that if they tried to hassle us, we could justdisappear . . . ." He said that the unit can be "broadcast, right from your own room . . . ." "A block radio station can be started by anyone," said fnmafes want a day-long meeting to discuss gripes Inmates atthe Washington State Reformatory in Monroe told students they want to organize an all-day culturalpresentation at the prison involving all racial groups. The students were attending a weekly volunteerprogram where they meet with the inmates. These meetings are held each Thursday from 7 to 9 p.m.The inmates said these two-hour sessions were too short to discuss the variety of racial r e l a t i o n s h i p s , c u l t u r al idiosyncrasies, and prison problems and conditions. Therefore, they want to sponsor an all-day seminar. But first, they have to gather ideas from the chairmen of the inter-racial, inter-actiongroup. T h i s body has four representatives from the White, Black, Chicano and Indian groups. Prisonauthorities would then have to give their approval. Each week, a different racial group from the inter-racial, inter-action leads a discussion at the student-inmate meeting. Last Thursday, it was Indian Awarenessnight. The American Indian inmates discussed some of their programs. One project, an Indian class, is taught for credit within the prison by an Everett Community College instructor. Indian inmates are alsoselling leather goods to the community to raise money for more projects. In other discussion, theIndians wanted to get more interest and participation by inmates in a recently formed Multi-ServiceCenter. This board of eight members is made up of all ethnic groups. The Multi-Service Center wouldlike to get more educational classes and tutoring inside the prison. It works in conjunction with theMulti-Service Center in Seattle which conducts outside research for the inmates. deArmond. "All heneeds is a turntable, microphone, 2 input oscillator, an antenna, a 5 watt transmitter . and an electricoutlet . . . he need have no knowledge of engineering." Welt expressed the hope that in the future, thestation will broadcast to all of Western, "to provide students with an AM radio station that is by them and for them, not commercialized." deArmond added that anyone who wishes to "be a D J " and do his orher own program, should contact him at 676-5174, or Resident Director Tim Place at Fairhaven. part ofthe shadow later, when another call came through. Kaprow said it was important not to shut the worldout in art but to deal with it and learn from it. Kaprow said the name "Dial" came both from the processof dialing the phone, and using the pole as a sun dial to mark regular time. Kaprow used the simplisticgame to "show how the world is." It became an exercise in observingâ€”the mercurial flow of time inrelation to boredom, the wheeling of the earth, and the results of order and disorder. Gene Garber of theEnglish faculty noticed that the team that failed in its task left the most human sign-graffitti, chalkmarks and litter. Teams also discovered how hard it is to chalk astroturf, how frustrating it is to findsomeone using the pay phone and how to explain to a tavern spectator what is going on. The secondhappening was a tedious labor exercise in carrying cement blocks up and down the stairs of the VikingUnion, building one staircase on the steps of the original. This exercise didn't inspire any immediateeffect except heavy breathing, though the participants went along with it in good order. Kaprow seemedto feel such physical activity would open up the spectrum ofl experience, one of his goals. He told thestory of a rich man that roams the world in search of a guru, seeking the real meaning of life behind thefacade of his material possessions. The guru, when found, says to the rich man that indeed, "I havereceived enlightenment." ''What was it like?" the man gasps, half dead from a journey across Asia. The guru smiles a Buddha smile.

Wash 30c Dry 10c 1300EIsSt by MICHELE RAYMOND The Gay People'sAlliance (GPA) is holding a food drive this week to help feed the children of a lesbian couple in Seattlewho have been ordered by the court to live in separate residences. Sandra Schuster and MadelineIsaacson have lived together for over a year with their six children. A few weeks ago, their ex-husbandscontested their suitability as parents because of their gay relationship. According to Washington Statestatutes, custody of children is awarded to the mother automatically, unless she is proven totally unfit.King County Superior- Court Judge James Noe awarded custody to the women, because he could findnothing unhealthy in the children's environment. Also, the mothers professed a deep faith in Christianity.The judge said he could find nothing in the Bible that conflicted with their lesbian relationship. However,the judge stipulated that the mothers must live in "suitable," separate residence, in order to insure"proper" upbringing. This means that the women must now pay rent on two houses instead of one.Schuster is working on her Masters degree in psychiatric nursing at the University of Washington, andIsaacson works at the U.W. switchboard. Even though they receive child support, the money does nottake care of the children's needs, a GPA member said. Last week they received a letter from someanonymous gay Christians, and a $10 food Structuralism spring course A new course calledStructuralism is being offered Spring quarter by the Foreign Language department. Structuralism is thetheory that knowledge about the world enters the mind, not as raw data, but in already highly abstracted form, namely as structures. There is ho prerequisite for the 397a level course. It will be taught by about20 faculty members and one student from various departments, and uses as its basis the teachings andbeliefs of such men as Karl Marx and Sigmund Freud. certificate, at which they were overjoyed. "Theydon't qualify for food stamps," said GPA member Carleen Cochran. "They need our help." "What we'retrying to do is open up a few hearts to some people who are in need of food. We're all humans just tryingto help other humans. The Women's Commission, the Food Co-op, and Sex Information are alsocooperating with us," said Food Drive chairman Shelly Provost. She said that boxes for food will be in the GPA office, the AS office, the Women's Commission, and the Sex Information Office. "Many people areafraid to go to the GPA office," commented a gay woman, "I guess they are afraid they will be labeled'gay,' or that someone will try to proselyte them into some homosexual relationship." She added that this is simply not true. The lesbian couple is forming the Gay Mothers Legal and Research Fund, to enablethem to travel around the country and collect data from gay parents and adolescents. They areattempting to prove that homosexual parents do not necessarily produce gay offspring. They hope thatthe new evidence will get their case reopened, and allow them to live together. "They really are a closefamily," said a GPA member. "It's all the three year-old twins have ever known." GPA is planning severalfund-raising activities to help out the Gay Mothers Fund.

Patriotism too uniformAfter being bombarded by patriotic speeches from the returning POWs for the past two weeks, it nowseems that the ex-prisoners were coached on what to say to the press. Military officials have admittedthat public information officers aboard the planes carrying the ex-prisoners home have given the POWsguidance on what to say to reporters, but have denied writing speeches for them. However, these star-spangled statements have been so uniform in their support of President Nixon's policies that it appearsthe speeches were pre-written and memorized. It doesn't seem logical that all the POWs would sowholeheartedly support a war which caused them so many years of hardship and has divided the nationso bitterly. Even though most of the ex-prisoners are career military officers who would support withoutquestion anything the military does, the uniformity of their speeches is questionable. One POW, anenlisted man, raised a clenched fist as he was descending from his plane. As he started to talk to thepress, he was hustled away by a senior officer. A few minutes later he wouldn't say anything to reporters. Issuing from the mouths of those who could protest the immorality of the war the loudest, thesestatements seem to vindicate Nixon's policies in Vietnam. As we're listening to and reading thesespeeches in the weeks to come, we should view them in the proper perspective . . . as militarypropaganda coming from the top. commentary What's left without lettuce? A poor boy can't even eat apoorboy. Complaining about Saga's food is nothing new, but what happens when MECHA (the campusChicano organization) begins a strike on non-union lettuce? Most freshmen start out by learning tosurvive on Saga's stale roast beef sandwiches and Cokes, but even the sandwiches are out because ofthe lettuce. Okay, lettuce is out, but what's in? Doughnuts, brown rice with gravy, oranges and yogurt,that's what. After a trying year on granola and yogurt (I don't care what Adele Davis has to say abouthealth anymore), I'm left with the doughnuts, the brown rice and (sigh) the oranges. Anyone who's evermade it though a Saga doughnut knows that it was probably cast when Tod Sundquist was still ASPresident-cum-Jesus Freak. That leaves brown rice and oranges. Now you have to eat both of themtogether, because the rice is too dry to slide down by itself (even the gravy doesn't help). You can startout by eating the rice first, and then eat an orange. And, of course, you can eat the orange first, and then the rice, but what else can a guy do for variety? I asked a good friend of mine, a vegetarian goatherderwho lives about five miles east of Lyndenâ€”and was an honors student in engineering at the U of W untillast fall-about what else a good knee-jerk liberal could eat. "Cheese," he said, "lots of protein, withouteating something unhealthy like a steak." Yeah. Knowing what I cbuld eat in good conscience, I tumbled back into the cafeteria, looking for a lot of that protein-rich cheese. Yup, Saga's got cheese all right,mixed in with the large non-union lettuce salad. Brown rice and an orange, anybody?

Ever since the trailers were removed from that lot nearFairhaven College, the lights on that stretch of pathway have been out. It's very dark there without lights,providing (potentially at least) a very dangerous situation. Especially on a campus known for assaults.Why are those lights turned off, and what can be done about it? - C D . The nine blackened lights should be re-activated within a month. They were tied in with electrical lines to the trailers, which were relocated to make room for a parking lot. Dave Anderson, coordinator of the physical plant, hopes to complete theproject by the middle of March. For now, he says, he hasn't been allocated the money to re-route powerlines, though plans are in the making. The money should be had, and the lights re-energized, by themiddle of March. building evacuation tests... I was the victim of a false fire alarm, test, or whatever youwant to call it-last week, Higginson Hall, around 10 p.m. The bell started ringing right next to my roomand I had to rush down the stairs and out of the building. I didn't bring a coat, it was very cold, but I didn'tmind because people were standing around saying it was "the real thing." . ' Â« 11 i Â»Â» After a fewconfused and shivering minutes, an all clear was sounded, our director said it was just a test, and wewere allowed back inside. Is this type of activity warranted? (What are they trying to prove? Why treat uslike children?) I don't understand why we aren't told in advance that it will be just a test. Would you lookinto this undesirable procedure? Fire ' Marshall Charles Martin is strongly in favor of building-evacuationtests: "If the real thing occurs, they (students) should know what action to take." "We don't want it to bea harassment, or even necessarily a surprise," Martin said last week. "Many don't even know what thealarm sounds like." This year security says they'll try to have fire alarms "each quarter in every one of the dorms." They staged about six tests all last quarter. Are they required? "It's more a law of commonsense than anything else," Martin said. "We want to take proper precautionary measures to protect lifeand property." "The purpose is to save their lives. "We find out a lot of things. People should knowalternate exits, if their main one is blocked. We need some method of checking rooms. "I try to work with the r.d.

"Hello, everybody. I'm Claude. I'm an alcoholic." "Hello, Claude," the crowd of 50returns her greeting in unison. "The meeting will now come to order," she says. This is _an A.A.meeting. Alcoholics Anonymous, founded in 1935 by Bill W. and Dr. SOLITUDEâ€”"We try to stay soberone day at a time." Bob in Akron, Ohio, (A.A. uses first names only) extends to 15,000 groups in 90countries. Here in Bellingham, however, it is a different story. Of Whatcom County's estimated 3,000people with drinking problems, only a couple hundred come to A.A. Tonight, the 50 individuals who havecongregated at 1227 Commercial Street are here for two purposes: to face the fact that they arepowerless to alcohol and to do something about it. The well-lighted basement room is full. People youngand old are milling about. The furniture is a ragtag collection of old sofas, rockers and folding chairs. Inone corner of the room sits an aging, dust-collecting upright piano. â€¢ Toward the front is a mahoganypulpit with a large decalled AA on its front. On the wall behind this speaker's podium are the "TwelveSuggested Steps" to cure alcoholism. The meeting has begun on time and the listeners are filtering outof the coffee room to select their seats. Tonight is a special occasionâ€”Cake Night. It is a Bellinghamtradition. On the last Thursday of the month, those members who are celebrating a certain number ofyears without having taken a drink are rewarded with an anniversary cake. On this Thursday, threemembers are receiving the awards. After Claude has begun the meeting, several new members stand upand introduce themselves. Each receives a warm welcome and hearty applause. Warren then reads the"Twelve Suggested Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous." The Twelve Steps are the core of A.A.'s program ofpersonal recovery from alcoholism. They are presented as suggestions only, based on the trial-and-errorexperience of some of A.A.'s earlier members. The first, and most important, of the steps is the problemdrinker must admit he is powerless to ^ alcohol and his life is unmanageable because of it. â€¢fc. AsWes says, this is often the most difficult part of ^ A.A. There is an invisible line one crosses to (^.become a pathological drinker, he said, "and we do not know when it happens. It can happen anytime from thatfirst drink, anywhere from age 14 to 42." Charles E., 61, added, "That first step was one of the worstones I made. I could never figure out that I was an alcoholic." As far as A.A. is concerned, Wescommented, alcoholism is nothing more than a physical addiction coupled with a mental obsession. It isa disease, and can be contracted at any time of one's life. Bobby, a black in his late 20's, added, "Ibelieved I could not exist without alcohol." Even after the alcoholic admits his addiction, it is often difficult for him to come to an A.A. meeting. Wes remembers, "When I first came here I wanted to back downthose stairs to make people think I was coming out." The second and third of the twelve steps are thatthe alcoholic should come to believe "a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity," and that the individual decides to turn his life and will over to the care of God as the individual understands Him.Ernie B., a businessman in his 40's, commented, "you finally become aware of a higher power and yourown limitations." The rest of the twelve steps concern the individual with making a realistic assessment of himself and his life. He asks God to remove all defects from the alcoholic's character, remove hisshortcomings, and prays for God to carry out His will for them. He also takes a constant inventory ofhimself and admits his wrongs. Alcoholics Anonymous works on the principle of fellowship. It is a loosefellowship of men and women who have drinking problems. As Wes said, "When I first came herefellowship was mighty important, and it still is." The loose fellowship holds two kinds of meetings for itsmembers. The speaker meeting, like tonight's, is one in which individuals get up before the group and tellthe story of their alcoholism. The members do not discuss the details of their problem because, as Wessays, "details are not too important." Besides, he adds, an alcoholic will be able to relate to the stories.The second type of meeting is a closed or discussion meeting. Here the loose fellowship goes into moredepth of the individual's problems. The meetings are usually conducted with maximum TWELVE STEPS-personal recovery fi informality and all participate.

Part of the Lummi Indian Aquaculture Project, the Skookum Hatchery is an ambitious enterprise between the federal government and theLummis that has been several years in the making. The Aquaculture Project is designed to create a self-sufficient' economic base for the Lummis on the road to self-determination. One government official called it, "the most advanced Indian program doing on in the nation." Jim Ellis, fisheries director of theSkookum plant, calls it a "strictly Lummi" project designed to their mode of life." "The Lummis aretraditionally considered fishermen and it provides them with incentive to become self-sufficient. It is hoped to teach the Lummis all angles of the operation so they can take over eventually," he said. Funded bythe Economic Development Administration, construction began on . the Skookum Hatchery in 1970, on a site about 30 miles up the Mt. Baker Highway. A survey showed that Skookum Creek was the only flowin the county where there would be a good, clean water supply with enough volume during the summermonths to support a large hatchery. At a cost of roughly $500,000, the hatchery can support 8-10 millionfish. The Lummis get surplus eggs from hatcheries throughout the state at no cost. But, in order toreceive state eggs, they are obligated to release about 50 per cent of the harvest each year into areastreams and the ocean. Coho, Chum and Chinook Salmon and Rainbow and Steelhead Trout comprisemost of the stock. When the eggs arrive, they are disinfected and placed in ihcubatioh trays where theyhatch in gt;/*â€¢â€¢ s?l lt;; 'Â§Si$M : *; * gt; SKOOKUM CREEK FISH HATCHERY-Lur whilethey work here.

Three people answered the ad, but only two showed up. When the group finally wasorganized, it met in various area fire halls. Eighteen years ago it moved to its present location onCommercial Street. "It has had its ups and downs." said Charley, "regular growin' pains." Attendance has been "growing by leaps and bounds lately" however, because of more court referrals. It is now 9:58, and Claude reminds the last speaker he has two minutes to talk.-Frank takes advantage of his time to extolthe virtues of A.A. and all it has done for him and so many of his friends. After Frank's testimony, themembers rise and recite the Lord's Prayer in unison. The group then breaks up and all head for thekitchenette where coffee and cake await them. Everyone is pleasant and the atmosphere is light. No oneis in a hurry or seems bothered by the close quarters. It almost belies Wes's comment, "Alcoholics areso damned impatient, they want to be immediately well." Lummis' progress ians learn Â»re to besystem. Kept at 52 degrees to accelerate growth, the tiny fish grow to about 2V2 inches in 90-120 days. At that time, the fish are transfered to 30 outdoor ponds, or "raceways." Water from Skookum Creekpours down a three foot pipe for 1600 feet into the recirculating system, and it is treated before returningto the river." When the fish reach about one pound, they are moved to a larger pond. At full operation, the hatchery employes about 12 Lummis who work 40-hour weeks. They live on the reservation and go toand from the hatchery in a crew bus. The workers are optimistic about the success of the AquacultureProject. Alex Jefferson said, "I think the project will be a great success. We have a few kinks to work out, but the harvest will tell." Sally Jefferies, fish husbandry technician who feeds the fish, thinks theprogram "will help the Lummi people." But, she thinks her current job will be phased out by automatedfeeders allowing her to work in other related areas. Since 1969, nearly 100 Lummis have completed atwo-year training program at the reservation and were taught biology, chemistry and all aspects of sea-culturing. Lummi Arlene Sedvy said, "some of the employees have learned in a two-year period whattakes most college students five years to learn,' simply because they don't have to take all the requiredcourses that it takes to get a college degree. They are highly-skilled people." But, before the Lummis can take over the operation, they must learn the managerial skills necessary to run a multi-million dollarproject. Twenty Lummi students are currently enrolled in the Management Training Program. Coursesinclude accounting, personnel management and other business-related subjects. The. Lummis have amarketing manager in Seattle to work on the distribution of Lummi Aquaculture products. In addition tothe Skookum Fish Hatchery, the Aquaculture Project includes the Lummi Shellfish Hatchery and a 750-acre sea pond which is expected to harvest about 100 million oysters this spring/' Flying Squad comesflying when trouble makes a call by RAHN LAHTI When people in Whatcom County feel lonely ordisturbed and need somebody to talk to, they can come to the Rising Sun Human Relations Center andtalk. But when a person is totally down and facing suicide, or has taken a drug overdose, or. isexperiencing any immediate crisis he can't face alone, a call to the Rising Sun sends the "Flying Squad"to his aid. Flying Squad Coordinator Christa Swart said, "Nobody can solve a person's problems for him,but there are two things we have to do to help. "First, we have "to gain the trust of the person we'reworking with, and then we help the person to recognize the problem he's having." Each night two squadmembers, one male and one female, are on duty at the Rising Sun office, 301 Gladstone, ready to handle any calls that come through on 733-9211 or 9212. "Our service is strictly for severe crisis intervention,"Swart said. "We will not go out if the person is able to come to the house." The idea for the Flying Squad began with the Crisis Center's "Hotline." Swart found that when she was working the~ phone, there wasa definite need for personal contact in some cases. No such service was available at the time, so several people began talking about how to fill the need. The Flying Squad was born in April of 1972. Of theoriginal eight people that composed the first Flying Squad only four remain. Swart said, "There is a strong emotional drain on the members." To keep replenishing its staff, the Flying Squad seeks volunteersthroughout the year. Three weeks ago five new members were added to the group. Each new membertakes the Rising Sun's "in-house" training which consists of drug facts ("What to do and especially whatnot to do," Swart said.), policies of the Rising Sun and ways to deal with different situations. Then theFlying Squad members go through a specialized training session that resembles a weekend encountergroup. Gary McDonald, one of the new members, told about the weekend, "We all came to Christa'shouse on a Saturday morning and spent the morning getting to know each other. "By the lunch break wehad initial impressions of each other and after lunch we began sensitivity sessions." Swart added, "Theidea is to become more aware of what you feel. If you're not aware of your own feelings, it's hard to besensitive to the feelings of others." McDonald pointed to Pamm Hanson, one of the original squadmembers, "Then we started role playing. She was sitting on a sofa sucking on a pillow and waving a knife around. A girl and I entered the situation like we were coming into a house on a call. "Pamm wasplaying a girl in a psychotic state, so it was hard to reach her. We tried to calm her down and thendecided it would be necessary to call for professional help." The Flying Squad keeps strong contact with the Whatcom County Mental Health Clinic. Swart said, "Dr. Gene Rondeau, a resident psychiatrist atthe clinic, is really a dedicated man." The squad also gets along well with the sheriff's FLYING SQUADMEMBERS-Pamm Hanson, Gary McDonald and Christa Swart (left to right) come "flying" off the RisingSun's porch. department and St. Luke's Hospital. "We get calls from them both to come and get OD's.We're recognized, known and, I feel, trusted because they do call us," Swart added. There are two basic requirements for Flying Squad members, according to Swart. They cannot have strong preconceivedideas they are out to prove to others, and they cannot pre-judge individuals. She said, "We do not try tochange people to our . way of thinking. We are not totally unprejudiced, but we are loose enough to dealwith people's problems, or turn them over to someone who can." McDonald said, "The thing that makes it work is that everyone is totally committed to the program." Pamm Hanson added, "This is a constantlearning process. Every time you go out on a call you find out more about yourself." "We're reliant on theother group members," Swart said, "for reassurance, understanding, or a kick in the pantsâ€”whichever is more applicable."

The proliferation of camera equipment in the past few yearshas not, however, proportionately increased the number of meaningful photographs being made. This isnot to demean the casual picture-taker, those who use the camera to record the highlights in their ownlives and in the lives of their families and friends for future remembrance. But, for every fifteen personscarrying cameras worth several hundred dollars, generally snugly ticked away in cases which preventthem from being damaged or gotten at on short notice perhaps two or three know what they are doingwith them. Western Photographers, currently showing iri the VU Gallery, is a refreshing example of what student photographers can and are doing today. The sixty-some prints chosen for the show are notexamples of work by people who take photography casually, but represent the efforts of a small numberof young photographers at Western who are dedicated, talented to one degree or another, and take theirpursuit very seriously. The first requirement of taking worthwhile photos, the cliche runs, is to be able toseeâ€”not seeing in the sense of distinguishing a car from a house, but being-able to abstract light, formor texture, or a combination of these things from a scene and then manipulating the image to fit the idea. The small group of people represented in the Panel talks school costs ON DISPLAY-This photo, byNick Prebezac, is one of the student photographers' exhibit currently in the Viking Union Gallery.Western Photographers show are those who have attained or are attaining both the ability to see and thecraftsmanship to convey what they see to the viewer. As is probably true in every student exhibit, thereare a few highly personal images, spontaneously conceived and carefully planned and carried out. Theseare the ones that catch the eye immediately, not because they employ showy subject matter or unusualeffects, but because they show that the photographer has dealt honestly both with his subject and withhis audience. As is probably also true in every student exhibit there are a number of photos which showthat their makers are still groping, not quite sure what it is they want to say nor how to say it. Not thatany photos in the show could be called feeble efforts, but show, as has been shown many times beforethat student photographers tend to emulate, either consciously or unconsciously, the work of the greatnames in the field.

I was amazed. I had beenskiing since 1964; not well, but I had been skiing and this was a blow to my ego. In nine years of skiingthis was my first lesson, and I didn't think spending the afternoon skiing around with a bunch of regulation intermediates was going to dp me much good. "You probably have some improper body movements weneed to correct," a man who was obviously the head honcho at the Mt. Baker ski school said, "and theintermediate group is probably the best place to pick" up the correct ones." I didn't think my improperbody movements were any of his business, but nevertheless I became resigned to my fate. I handed my$3.50 ticket to a kid named Rob, who was to be my instructor, and strapped on my skis. Besides beingmy first lesson, this was also my first trip to Baker. I had spent the entire morning being lost. It seemedthe chairs ran every which direction and no matter where you went you never ended up where youstarted. The first chair I rode on even had the gall to cross over the top of another chair. From the top ofthat chair I ended up in a valley at the bottom with two other chairs. That's when things becameconfusing. I asked some kid who looked like he knew the lay of the land, and he said something thatsounded like, . "If you rode Chucksan over to Shucksan and went Honkers you could waddle down to thelodge." I decided being lost was a much better idea. Eventually after skiing some of the runs that ran allover I began to see that Baker has one chair running from near the lodge to the top of the mountain.From there, there is a chair on the other side running to the same spot. Also on the other side there is achair called Up and Up that runs up one side and down the other. Skiers load on both ends anddisembark around the same spot on top. On the lodge side of the mountain there is a beginners' chairthat runs crosswise across the bottom. It is also used by the more advanced to make their way back tothe lodge. Once one gets the hang of the layout of Baker he finds it is an extremely diverse area. As with most areas it seems to concentrate more on the intermediate to expert skier. The beginner area isbunched together. It seems people fall down there more because they run into each other than for otherreasons. Baker is not particularly well-groomed, and skiing the different trails and slopes can proveinteresting. Particularly in a year such as this where most areas haven't seen as much snow as usual.The only packing most of the slopes receive is done by the skiers. Thus after a heavy snow a skier canfind himself skiing through some pretty choppy terrain. The trails tend to be narrow, with a lot of bumpsaround over and sometimes through rocks, trees and logs. But there I was thinking myself to be in theexpert class of skiers and being put in the intermediate group. Besides I thought improper bodymovements were a private thing. Then there was this kid, Rob, at least three years my junior telling mehow to plant a pole and do a stem Christie. I was just beginning to think that I had wasted my moneywhen he asked us if we wanted to ski down something called Honkers hill. Honkers, it turned out, is afairly steep hill with a lot of moguls. It seems to be held in high esteem by a lot of the skiers at Baker.After a little prodding and a lot of euphemizing by Rob, "It's not that bad . . . you guys ski good enough to do this . . . . We'll just take it turn by turn," everyone agreed to give it a try. Besides being a skiinstructor Rob was also a good liar. It was that bad. Most of us weren't that good, and about half waydown he told us to ski it out. Of the five of us, one ended up in a creek at the bottom, one sideslippedthe whole hill, one guy fell every time he turned and one middle-aged lady tried it straight down andmanaged to wipe out half of the line to the chair. After Rob managed to get everyone together again inthe chair line, he said the lesson was over unless anyone wanted to ski Honkers again. Old Rob wasquite a kidder, and that sly look on his face testified to the fact that he was also a sadist. Now, Baker isnot a bad area if you watch out for the logs and rocks, because if you don't get lost you can learn a lot ifyou get the right instructor. But don't ever let anyone call you an intermediate; you might just take thatsecond run and like it. Sandpipers stop women The women's varsity basketball team had its 15-gamewinning streak snapped by the Seattle Sandpipers, 51-50, Thursday.

The Viks cameback to take the lead several times in the fourth quarter before Sandpiper guard Jackie Green sank twoclutch free throws with 37 seconds left in the game. Western's 55-49 win over WSU marked the Vikingssecond victory over the Cougars this season. Cougar guard Marta McClenny burned Western in the first quarter with fast break lay-ins to help the Cougars lead 18-13 after the first period. - The Viks outscoredWSU, 12-4, in the second quarter to take the lead at half-time, 25-22. WSU's 6-6 center Jennifer Graydominated the boards in the third quarter to bring them within one point of Western going into the fourthquarter. Western crushed Central, 57-30, in its second game Saturday. In earlier season action theVikings defeated the Wildcats, 47-43. The Vikings lead by seven points at the end of the second quarter before blowing the game open in the last half. "Central tried to run with us and stopped our runninggame," Western coach Lynda Goodrich said. "This game was really important to us because we knewwe could beat them. We should never have had such a close game with them last time."

Known as the "father of high school wrestling" in Washington, Tomaraswas honored for his work in promoting the sport while a teacher at Washington State University duringthe early fifties. Tomaras left Western last spring after the merger of the men's and women's physicaleducation departments cost him his job as chairman of the men's program. He is now at University ofCalifornia at Northridge in Northridge, Calif. WILLIAM TOMARAS 'Part time coach' a full time job byO.K. JOHNSON : Now that the wrestling season is officially over, head coach Rick Iverson is spendinghis time attending regional and state high school tournaments in the hopes of recruiting promising young wrestlers to Western next year. Iverson has already met six young men who said that they RICKIVERSON will attend Western next year and four others who are thinking of enrolling. "I've also met fivekids from Eastern Washington who are thinking about coming to Western," Iverson said. "The recruitingpicture at this point looks real good. I'll be traveling the next month or two looking for more possibilities.My goal is to have at least three men for every weight class." Although his team placed last in theEvergreen Conference meet this year, all members of the team will return to the mats next winter to giveWestern the darkhorse role. Iverson was named coach of the wrestling program late last fall after theadministration and the wrestlers had discussions on who would fill the post vacated by coach LannyBryant, who left Western at the end of summer term last year. "I'm really happy about the job," Iversonsaid. "It is very rewarding to see the way the team has reacted this past season." Iverson will be astudent at Western next quarter, working for his degree in physical education with a minor in English inhopes of becoming a part of the Western staff. Iverson says that it will be a race against time to get hisdegree. "Margaret Aitken and Boyde Long can not promise me anything about becoming a part of thestaff. I just hope that I can complete my education before someone else with wrestling experience getsselected." "I'm not the only coach in the state in this situation. The coach at the University of PugetSound is working for his degree and has been very successful the last three years with his team. I feelsatisfied that the kids here are satisfied." In order to complete his education, Iverson says that he willhave to phase himself out of his active role in his business, did During the winter months, wrestling isjust about Iverson's entire life. The 31-year-old coach is active in radio broadcasting for wrestlingtournaments as well as participating in AAU and freestyle wrestling meets. Iverson is a graduate ofSedro Woolley High School and Skagit Valley Community College. At Skagit, Iverson was named thejunior college wrestler of the year in 1962. He won the state title at his weight. "I've learned a lot over the years, especially this year at Western," Iverson said. "I have long felt that there is more to wrestlingthan just body conditioning, knowledge of holds and moves and muscle conditioning. I feel that wrestling is a model of life set up on a 30-foot circle. If we can come through it the right way, a person can gothrough life successfully. This applies to any sport." Western to host Women's Northwest cage tourney by SHERRY STRIPLING Western will be hosting the Women's Northwest Regional B a s k e t b a l lTournament Thursday, Friday and Saturday. T h i r t e e n teams from Washington, Idaho, Montana,Oregon and British Columbia will participate in the tournament. Games will be held Thursday at 3 and 5p.m. in ajl four gyms of Carver Gymnasium. The games will continue Friday at 9 a.m., noon, 2 and 4p.m. The championship game will be at 3 p.m. Saturday, after semi-final games at 9 a.m., 11 a.m. and1 p.m. In women's intercollegiate competition, season games have no bearing on who is the leaguechampion other than where teams are seeded in the decisive regional tournament. Western has thenumber one seed for the tournament. It sports a 17-2 season record. Washington State University(WSU), Central and Simon Fraser University (SFU) are the next three seeds. Western's only losses this season have been to the University of British Columbia, last year's Canadian National Champions, andto the Sandpipers, a women's AAU team from Seattle. Neither of these teams will be in the tournament. WSU won the regional title last year, defeating Western in the championship game. According toVikings' coach Lynda Goodrich, the Cougars should be Western's toughest competitor again this year."WSU is a very fine team with a good front line," Goodrich said. "They have an excellent guard in MartaMcClenny. Their two senior forwards (Ann Fruechte and Christy Gregory) are very capable andexperienced." "I think Western and WSU are pretty evenly matched," Goodrich said. "No one candiscount WSU's team." "Central's team is small, but they're quick and they have excellent outsideshooting," she said. "They've improved a great deal over last year. They're very tough." Western hasbeen the only United States team to play Simon Fraser University, and Goodrich said it would be hardto judge how SFU will do against the other schools. SFU's center Sheila Strike is a fine ball player,"Goodrich said. "SFU could give any team problems." Kathy Hemion and Theresa Nafziger, both juniors,lead Western. In her two years as coach, the Vikings have had 36 "wins and 3 losses. Only one of their losses has been to another American college team. If the Vikings win the regional championship thisweek they hope to go on to the Women's National Basketball Tournament in Queens, N.Y. LYNDAGOODRICH Western in scoring with 11 points per game averages. Wendy Hawley, junior, followsclosely behind with a nine point average. Goodrich said that for the spectator who has not seen muchwomen's basketball recently, the tournament should show how much the caliber of playing has improved in the last few years. She said that the rule changes from the six-player team with stationary guardsand forwards to the five-player full court game has made women's basketball much more exciting towatch. "Women's rules are now almost the same as the men's except that we have a 30 second clock,no over and back rule, and we shoot all fouls," Goodrich said. "I hope we will soon be able to get awayfrom shooting all fouls.", Goodrich is a graduate assistant in physical education at. SPBI1I6 TIVPPHJG related wfw ?.

You're fired AS replaces Co-op Board by STEVEJOHNSTON Western's AS legislature has already started to appoint members to councils and passcharters for a new student corporation which students have not yet approved. During an AS legislaturemeeting last Wednesday, the student government ratified a proposal setting up a six-member Bookstore Council"which would come under a new corporation named Western Washington State College, Inc. orcalled just "The Association." The move came as surprise to James Hildebrand, who is now apparentlythe former chairman of the old Bookstore Board. Hildebrand was not informed about the legislature'smove until Sunday evening when the Western Front asked his opinion on the new Bookstore Council.But Hildebrand is not the only one who is surprised by the moves being made by the AS. Last Tuesday,a negotiating committee made up of AS Housing Commissioner Craig Cole, AS Business Manager Rich Hass and AS Legislator Paul King approached the" Western Front on the idea of forming a studentcorporation. The idea was to eliminate the positions of AS president and idy vice-president, along withthe legislature, and replace them with a board of directors headed by a chairman of the board. Althoughthe Associated S t u d e n t s have been a corporation since 1933, the negotiating team said it hasbecome so muddled in red tape and committees that was becoming too confusing to operate. Theproposed by-laws for this new corporation would be placed before the students for a vote May 9. Aftersome discussion this date was changed to "sometime at the end of the quarter." One of the majordrawbacks to the corporation idea is that the students in general-much like Hiidebrand-are completely u n i n f o r m e d about the corporation's by-laws. A student who filed for what he thought was going to be the AS president position was asked if he knew he was going to head a corporation with a $500,000yearly income. He wanted to know what was going on and said he didn't have the slightest idea what the corporation was all about. So, in just a few short weeks the AS legislature is going to have to informthe entire student body just what this corporation is all about. As the proposed by-laws now stand,there will be ten positions voted on by students. These ten elected students will form the c o r p o r a t io n ' s Board of Directors. The first position will be filled by the Chairman of the Board; the second bythe vice-chairman and the third position by secretary and treasurer of the Association. According to theby-laws (but student government members said has been changed) the student fillling position fourwould act as Chairman of the â€¢Services Council; position five would be Chairman of the ActivitiesCouncil; position six would be Chairman of the Publications Council and position seven would beChairman of the Facilities Council. The student in position eight would be Chairman of the BookstoreCouncil and position nine and ten would be directors-at-large. The corporation, which would becompletely separate from the college, would be funded through student activity funds. However, thismoney comes from tuition and actually belongs to the state and could be cut off. In o t h e r words, thecorporation, acting as a distinct legal identity, could be run off campus and forced to collect its ownfunding through some other means. The AS is planning to have public meetings about the newcorporation, but have not set a date for these meetings. News at a glance Nixon threatens North Vienam FLORESVILLE, Tex. UPI-President Nixon said Sunday that the Communists would take over SouthVietnam if the United States stops using air and sea power in Indochina.

Selling term papers 'corrupts education'SEATTLE UPI-The Faculty Senate at Shoreline Community College voted unanimously during theweekend to request a state investigation of firms which sell term papers to students. The senate decidedto ask the college's board of trustees to join it in requesting the attorney general's office to look into thelegality of the firms operating in this state. A spokesman said the faculty members believe that servicesprovided by the firms, "corrupt the educational process." -COMPILED FROM UNITED PRESSINTERNATIONAL (complete UPI file at IVC in the VU foyer) by O. K. JOHNSON The AS legislaturepassed a Bookstore charter Wednesday, replacing the old Bookstore with a Bookstore Council whichwould be under the proposed student corporation. The council will serve as the policy-making body forthe Student Co-op. The new council was a shock to James Hildebrand, chairman of the BookstoreBoard, who was informed of the charter by the Western Front Sunday evening. H i l d e b r a n d , whowas surprised when he learned that a charter had been drafted and passed, said that he did not knowanything about it. He was even more surprised when he found out that he was no longer chairman of theBookstore Board. Craig Cole, AS Housing Commissioner, will be serving as vice-chairman of theBookstore Council until June 14. Cole's role as vice-chairman, in effect, would be as acting chairman pro , tern until the date of expiration. Hildebrand said that he did not believe that one group could dismissthe Bookstore Board that was appointed by a totally different group. H i l d e b r a n d became1temporary chairman when a student chairman resigned. He said that the Bookstore Board had twofunctions. One was to draw up a charter for the Bookstore and the other was to see that the policies ofthe bookstore were made and carried out. In the c h a r t e r that Hildebrand was working on, therewere three questions that were not yet answered. Who owns the Bookstore? Who operated it? To whom does the Bookstore report to? Hildebrand gave his personal opinion in saying that the students own the bookstore, but that both the students and faculty operate it. Hildebrand said that he would have beenwilling to work together with students on the charter passed by AS legislature, but since they want towork separately, that would be fine with him. Included in the charter was a recommendation by the ASnegotiation team of Cole, AS Business Manager Rich Hass, and Legislator Paul King, to appoint threestudents to the Bookstore Council. C l a u d i a Bennett was appointed for a two year term, BobCamper for a one year term, and Cole was appointed a temporary member of the Bookstore Council.The charter also calls for appointing two faculty members and a representative from the a d m i n i s t r a t i o n . Letters requesting appointments from the Faculty Council and President Charles Flora weresent out by the legislature. The new charter calls for the council to be the policy-making body for allmatters relating to the operationg of the Bookstore. The Bookstore Council would be responsible to theboard of directors, which the AS legislature is now acting for prior to the May student governmentelections. Klipsun 'first class' in notional judging The Associated Collegiate Press (ACP) awarded lastFall and Winter's quarter's Klipsun a first class rating-the second highest possible. The magazine,judged by the University of Minnesota's School of Journalism, was one of 1,250 magazines, yearbooksand newspapers critiqued for quality by ACP. Klipsun received 1,610 point-1,700 points woiild havequalified it for an All American rating-the ulimate goal. Ratings ranged from 1,700 and above points for All American, 1,450-1699 for first class, 1,250-1,499 for second class and 1,249 and lower for third class.Magazines were rated on their editorial content, standards, art work, photography, feature content andtypography. ' This was not the first time t h a t Western's quarterly magazine had received high honors.In Fall 1971, its first quarter as a magazine, (it had previously been a yearbook) Klipsun received theMedalist award, the highest rating from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association. However, theACP's rating is the first time that Klipsun has been asked to be rated since. Every quarter's editordecides on a magazine theme. Fall quarter's editor Mark Morrow chose student survival as his theme,while Winter- quarter's editor Bill Braswell emphasized the community. Current editor Bill Dietrich saysthat this quarter's issue, which will come out later this quarter has a general theme and will includearticles on science, h i s t o r y and Bellingham community issues. Minority candidate runs AmericanIndian Randy Lewis is receiving support from other minorities in his candidacy for AS President. Fulland total support by campaigning door-to-door on a one-to-one basis is promised by the Asian American Student Union. "We are supporting Randy not only because he belongs to a minority group, butbecause he is qualified in matters of education and minority groups." With the small amount of moneythey have pamphlets will be distributed in an attempt to get Lewis into office. Also endorsing Lewis willbe MECHA, although no active work has been started to promote the campaign. The question came uplast week over who owns the bookstore-the students of the college. Hildebrand said that "the vote of the students by a m a r g i n of t w o - t o - o n e, authorizing the bookstore to come under the collegesenate l a s t year, was a valid a u t h o r i z a t i o n " for college ownership. Cole did not agree, sayingAS had contacted its lawyer and his interpretation was that the Council on Student Services can set upa Bookstore Committee. "There is nothing wrong with that," Cole said. "The only point is that theAssociated Students are the ones who control the bookstore." H i l d e b r a n d said the Bookstoreorganization and who owns it are in pretty bad shape "and I think it's probably going to take a court case to straighten things out." A referendum will go before the students May 9 redefining AssociatedStudents as a corporation having powers over student activities, services, publications and facilities.Cole said last week that AS has actually been a corporation since 1933 and all the referendum would do is redefine its roles. The AS negotiation team submitted a proposal outline of the corporation's by-lawsto the AS lawyer, John H. Anderson of Sedro Woolley. The new by-laws call for all students to comeunder Western Washington State College, Inc., a non-profit corporation. At the head of the corporationwould be a â€¢ ten-member board of directors. If the by-laws are passed in the coming election, theywould r e p l a c e the present AS c o n s t i t u t i o n . The present constitution is actually the by-lawsof the 1933 charter which defines the AS of Western as a corporation. Instead of having an ASpresident, this position would be chairman of the board of directors and president of the association. The position of AS vice-president would be replaced by a vice-chairman of the board. The other eightpositions would be filled by directors and would serve on student services, activitie.s, publications andfacilities councils, plus the Bookstore Council. Candidates to be heard at forum In preparatiofor the May 17 election at Western, students have a chance to hear and talk to those persons running for president and vice-president Thursday and next Monday in open forums in the Viking Union lounge. Thursday'sforum will be held from 10:30 a.m. until 12 noon, while Monday's forum will be from 3 to 4:30 p.m. Thesix students running for the office of AS President are David (Tony) Weeks, James Kennedy, LloydJohnson, Randy Lewis, Joseph Hann and Jeff To wen. Candidates running for vice-president areRebecca Harris, Gary Sanders, Robert Morse, Robert (Bub) Ezell and Tyree Forest. ---------- Western Front - 1972 May 2 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, May 2, 1972 Front editorials... A question of honesty College PresidentCharles J. Flora has not been honest with Western students. On October 5, 1972, he approved a Student Publications Policy which said in part: "Freedom of the press must not be abridged by confiscation ofissues or facilities, or suspension of publications, except where there is a clear danger that publicationwill violate a public law, nor may it be abridged by academic, personal or financial sanctions, arbitraryremoval of staff members, or threats of these actions. No one outside the staff shall delete, dictate orrevise the content of a student publication." Last week, President Flora directed the college print shopnot to run the 1972 edition of Jeopardy, the campus literary magazine, although the director of the printshop and the editor of Jeopardy had already reached agreement on the use of the campus printingfacilities, and the print shop had already ordered the paper to be used for the Jeopardy press run. TheWashington State Attorney General's office found "no clear danger" that that 1972 Jeopardy would violateany obscenity laws. Whatcom County Prosecutor Jane Mason said the 1972 Jeopardy would not besubject to the state law on erotic material. Ignoring these two statements on the legal status of Jeopardy,President Flora has abridged the freedom of the magazine by denying it use of campus facilities and, byforcing Jeopardy to use higher cost off-campus facilities, has imposed financial sanctions on themagazine. Such abridgments and sanctions had been expressly forbidden by his six-month-oldpublications policy. In the policy, President Flora also established a Student Publications Council, madeup of representatives of the students, the faculty, the administration and the classified staff, to act as thepublisher of student publications. The council had recommended to President Flora before he blockedcampus publication that he "take no further action" in the Jeopardy matter. The President ignored thisrecommendation. President Flora's objections to the 1972 Jeopardy are that "portions of the manuscriptare so lacking in literary merit as to degrade the remainder of the publication and the college." Thedegradation that student publications and Western might suffer by the printing of Jeopardy will beinconsequential compared with the loss of stature this college will suffer through the capricious acts of itspresident in obliquely censoring a student publication. Either President Flora has the power as presidentof this college to regulate student publications or he has delegated that authority to the StudentPublications Council. He cannot have it both ways. If the president stands by his policy statement, lethim conduct his affairs accordingly. If he chooses to disregard his policy, let him tear the papers up andbe honest with the students of Western. â€”Howard Scott A question of sincerity President Flora'sbanning of Jeopardy's publication at the same time he says he is against censorship raises two possibleexplanations for his behavior: 1) If he is sincere about his belief in freedom of the press, his blockingpublication in the college print shop must be an effort to save face in the public's eye. 2) If he is notsincere about his belief in freedom of the press, his proclamations about it are nothing more than rhetoricused to try to appease the college community. Either explanation would cause one to believe that Flora is insincere and lacks the courage to stand up to his beliefs. A student or faculty member should bejustifiably dismayed that the president of the college apparently feels he has to cover up his beliefs andhide them from the college or the public or both. It would seem much better to have as top man in thecollege a person who is willing to stand up for what he believes and defend that belief to whatever criticism may stem from actions related to it. If Flora feels that he can't defend his beliefs against the critics ofthis world, then maybe he should call it quits. â€”Alice Colhngwood On the home front EDITOR-IN-CHIEF: Jackie Lawson MANAGING EDITOR: Alice Collingwood ASSOCIATE EDITOR: John BrewingtonCOPY EDITOR: Bob McLauchlan COPY EDITOR: Mike Kerr SPORTS EDITOR: Kent Sherwood PHOTO EDITOR: Jim Thomson PHOTOGRAPHER: Rich Collingwood WIRE EDITORS: Howard Scott KenRitchie STA-FF REPORTERS: James Batty, Dan Benckendorf, Jack Broom, Robert Clark, DougCockburn, Gale Dupell, Steve Garvey, Sue Gawrys, Hendrika Ge'rde, Dick Grove, Rochelle Henderson,Heidi Henken, Carol Hill, Debbie Hudson, Micky Hull, O.K.Johnson, Steve Johnston, Gary Lackey, KenOlson, Mary Jo Orchard, Rodger Painter, Ten' Pechthalt, Marilee Pethel, Rick Ries, Sandi Rouse, KathiSandboe, Stephanie Smith, Dan Tolva, Lyn Watts, Duff Wilson, Mary Jo White.

NEWSROOM: 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE: 676-3160 by Steve Johnston Those newstudents. and their underwear If you plan to go anywhere by plane this summer, there is a good chanceyou will be checked through something called a "Hijacker's Profile" which will tell immediately if you planto take the plane on an unscheduled hop. Airlines won't give out any information on this profile but it issuspected that anyone carrying a ticking suitcase will not be allowed to board. However, another suchprofile has been released. It is called the "College Student Profile" and enables its user to tell the classstanding of any student at a glance. Not too surprising, freshmen are the easiest to pick out. Accordingto the profile, freshmen always wear brand new underwear the first two weeks on campus (the profile does not say how one goes about verifying this item). After two weeks the supply of new underwear packedfrom home runs out. "Aside from the new underwear, the easiest way for the profile user to pick outfreshmen is by the look of total bewilderment on their faces," the report states. "Being somewhat proud ofthe fact of being away from home for the first time and out on their own, young freshmen will not askwhere anything is on campus. They would rather sit through a wrong class than admit to the fact they arein the wrong room." If a student is found curled up under a tree in the middle of the night, it can be safely assumed he is a freshman who lost his dorm. Freshmen can also be found sitting in the front of classes,carefully taking down every word the teacher says while other students are sitting on the lawn or still inbed. On Friday nights they can be found dumping buckets of water off the top floor of their dorms. Theprofile notes that it is rather difficult to tell sophomores from juniors, except that juniors usually haveunderwear in more disrepair than sophomores. But this is accounted for by the fact they have beenwearing it longer. Sophomores are prone to attend classes more than juniors but will sit in the back of the room and give Bronx cheers whenever they disapprove of what is being said. Sophomores are also justbecoming aware of the VU coffee shop, while juniors consider it a second home. Juniors complain among themselves a lot more and make idle threats about dropping out of school if the administration ups thetuition one more time. Sophomores are just discovering the Financial Aids office while juniors hang around the office door looking for some loose money. The profile points out that both sophomores and juniorsattend the same amount of weekend parties but juniors are able to drain a keg without throwing up. Oneslight difference between the two classes should be taken into account, but the profile warns one musthave a quick eye. The place to go is the school library, usually during the week of mid-terms and finalexams. If a student has a large pile of books in front of him and is writing fast and furious, it is safe toassume the student is a junior doing a term paper due the next day. Sophomores generally have notgotten the knack of doing papers the night before they are due and will normally start them a week early.For freshmen, this time lag has been known to stretch as far as two weeks before the paper is due. Theeasiest student to fit in the profile is the senior. Like the freshmen, they too have new underwear. This isbecause seniors have started to talk with their parents again and their mothers packed a new bunch intheir suitcases. But this is not to say seniors can be mistaken for a freshman. For one thing, the darkrings under their eyes give them away. These rings are like rings in a tree and number the years they have been on campus. Also, seniors do not buy books unless they have to and have been known to gothrough a whole quarter with only a pencil and wadded up piece of paper in their pockets to keep notes.They also fall asleep in class on warm days and start to snore. Sometimes they grunt with displeasurewhen awakened from a sound sleep and, if a teacher will let them, a senior will sleep through the regularclass and on through the next class. The profile said the nesting ground for seniors is in the coffee shopwhere they talk about finding jobs after graduation and make excuses for not going to class. On warmdays they can be found hanging around Red Square, doing the same thing they did in the coffee shop. Acouple of weeks before graduation, some seniors can be seen wandering into the placement office to seeabout finding a job. A senior is rarely seen smiling when coming out of the placement office. Graduatestudents are a lot like seniors, except freshmen call them "sir" and "ma'am" arid sometimes mistakethem for teachers. ---------- Western Front - 1972 May 2 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday,'M^y2;i972 Western Front Guest editorial A question of rationality Very seldom do thedecisions of administrators warrant as much ridicule as the statement President Flora has issued inregard to the publication of Jeopardy. I find it extremely disappointing that the "leader" of this college _ ,A community could be so irrational as to block the publication of a ^ -â€¢ ' lt; STUDENT magazine onthis campus. Jeopardy was paid for by the students of this college; they have a right to see Jeopardypublished on campus, on time. Flora has disregarded all opinion contrary to his own. The StudentPublications Council, the Attorney General's office, and members of the faculty were treated to deaf ears. Flora has blatantly disregarded the Student Publications policy which states that "the press must befree of all forms of external interference designed to regulate its content. . . freedom of the press must notbe abridged by confiscation of issues or facilities. . ." His request that Jeopardy be published off-campusis in direct contradiction to this very policy which he approved in October, 1 9 7 1 . Flora's stand on theJeopardy issue has made a mockery of college free press. When the supposed representative of thestudents turns his back upon our basic right to a free press, then I say it's time to look at ouradministrators and ask ourselves if maybe they should be the ones to go off-campus.

Bookstore annex to beclosed The Bookstore annex is losing money and will be closed down tnis tall, according to Bookstoremanager George Elliott. The small annex, located on the trail between Fairhaven College and thesecurity office, offers much the same services as the Bookstore, except on a smaller scale. Elliott saidthat the annex had moved from full-day operation to only being open four hours a day. He added that the annex always got off to a good financial start with the sale of books at the beginning of the quarter, butthat sales always went down as soon as the book-buying boom was over. Elliott said that the annex will be leased to the college and Seniors picking best faculty All seniors graduating Spring and Summerquarters have the opportunity to vote on who they feel are the outstanding faculty at Western. The Deanof Students office is asking you to reflect upon the professors of your department and the college ingeneral. Which ones, in your estimation have d o n e a job worthy of recognition? Ballots are availableat the Information Volunteer Center in the VU foyer. The names of the faculty judged by the seniors tobe the most outstanding will be announced by the Front. The Dean of Students office will also ask thatthis honor be noted in the professor's official file for consideration in tenure and promotion.

Craig Cole, AS housing commissioner and a member of the three-man negotiatingteam involved with the bookstore ownership crisis, said, "It (the annex) is in a poor location and it's abad idea. Students can probably go to the Bookstore and get the books they need, so why make anextra stop? I maintain that there are a lot of people out there who see the building and still don't knowwhat a bookstore annex is." Elliott called the annex "an unfortunate mistake" saying, "We have a 22-square-foot building down there and it's not paying for itself." A p p l i c a n t s should be full-timestudents. They will be expected to go to Lakewood on S a t u r d a y s to become familiarized with thejob. Applicants should contact Barry Boniface in Viking Union 206 or Dave New in VU 304.

JimWilliams Fairhaven Co-op worker defends self Editor, Western Front; This is in response to StephenShea's letter in the Western Front entitled "Too Many Errors" April 18, 1972. I must admit that therewere many errors involved in the incident, but I fail to see them all on the behalf of the bookstore. Mr.Shea failed to mention the deception involved. Instead of placing the purchased merchancise aside, heproceeded to place it with the unpurchased merchandise. People come through the lines constantly. Icannot remember everybody and what they buy. I find it an insult to be chastised as I was by one of myfellow human beings. No one is perfect and Mr. Shea is no better than I. The language with which Mr.Shea approached me which led to the "chewing out" by the manager, was cleverly left out. No clerk inany store must take verbal abuse from a patron of a store. This is true in the Student Co-op as well asany store. If you are so unsatisfied with our services, and if we are continuously ripping you off, why doyou continue to patronize our store?

As a corporation, theAssociated Students has a distinct legal identity, separate from that of the College. Although theAssociated Students accepts monetary support from the College and utilizes some of its facilities, we are no more an arm and agency of the state or the College than are the Boy Scouts of America. As a non-profit corporation, the Associated Students is empowered, by law, to do many things, including theexecution of agreements and loans, owning property, suing, and being sued. The Associated Students,for example, obtained a loan to build the Bookstore, leased the land on which it rests from the College,and is its sole lawful owner. Over a period of time, however, the officers of the Associated Students havefailed to do their corporate bookkeeping. Many boards, commissions, councils, and committees havebeen created, to the point where our corporate structure has become unwieldy and confusing. In somecases, the rights of the members of the corporation (all W.W.S.C. students) have been infringed upon byallowing appointed officials more power than those who are elected by the membership. Further, ourcorporation has assets: the Bookstore and the Lakewood property, being the major ones. As owners ofthese properties, we have the power to control them without interference from other bodies or groups.These powers were not recognized by the students and, as such, the Associated Students has beenthinking like a sand-box political system, instead of a corporation with powers and responsibilities. About two and one-half years ago, the Associated Students began the process of reorganizing and clarifying itscorporate structure. Most recently, the Associated Students retained an attorney to assist in thisreorganization and to inform us of our rights and responsibilities. In order to finalize the process ofreorganization, the A.S. Legislature and Executive appointed a three-member negotiation team toformalize the proposed reorganization plan so that it may be brought before the student body in the formof amendments to the by-laws of the corporation. It is not only necessary, but vital, that thisreorganization take place, if the corporation is to maintain its legal identity and remain in control of thoseareas which it now owns. The amendments to the by-laws, which will be voted upon by the students, are simple. Basically, they reorganize the existing Board of Directors for the Corporation and outline thebasic powers and limitations of that body. They also delineate the rights of the membership at large.This attempt at reorganization is not an effort to vest unweildy powers in any group or body. It is simply toclarify our internal system of governance so that we may continue to operate as a corporation andthereby make better use of our powers and responsibilities. Any student who is interested in this program or who desires more information should contact any of the members of the A.S. Negotiation Team aslisted below.

The Programs Development Committee, a groupstudying "self-study," found that the self-study programs needed a better-structured environment for itsgoal of self-development through individual investigation, Guy said. " T h e c o m m i t t eerecommended that it (self-study) be centered in one hall, although not limited in one hall," he added.The creation of the dorm depends on the amount of Book of the Quarter discussion tomorrow The"Tears of blood and fireâ€”the poetry of Chicano liberation" will be discussed tomorrow at 4 p.m. in apanel discussion about spring's Book of the Quarter, "El Ombligio de Aztlan." The discussion will beheld in Lecture Hall 3. "El Ombligio de Aztlan" is the first anthology of Chicano poetry to be published.The title is translated as "The Navel of Aztlan," Aztlan being the legendary place where all the tribes ofMexico came from. The American Southwest is the land defined as that ancient land. Events The bookwas published as part of a class project of San Diego State College's Center for Chicano Studies. Albert Urista, also known as Alurista, a teacher from the center, is the author of the book. The book includespoetry by both Alurista and his students. It is a reflection of Chicano protest. Sergio Elizondo, dean ofthe College of Ethnic Studies, Francisco Ivarra, Rosa Calderon, Francisco Hinojos and William O. Scott will participate in the panel discussion. people who sign up to live in the more structured environment of the 100-person dorm. Besides the usual resident aides and resident director living in the dorm, therewould also be two graduate interns and a project secretary living there. The self-study project directormight also live in the dorm, Guy said. All these people would be in the dorm in connection with aresource center to push people to do things for themselves, Guy added. The dorm would be set up toget the right kind of people who will make the best use of the self-study program and not just abuse it for the three easy credits, Guy said.

AT BROADWAY ---------- Western Front - 1972 May 2 - Page 5 ---------- Tuesday, May 2, .1972 Western Front 5 High Street mall in Music addition plans Sexuality seminarslated by KEN OLSEN Details concerning Western's music building addition were presented to facultyand administrators, last Thursday by â€¢ Henry Klein, architect and designer of the new structure.Klein, who is presently working out of Mount Vernon, received national recognition in the early 1960's forthe design of Nash and Mathes Halls. He was employed to design the new music addition in 1963 aftera feasibility study was made concerning the project. According to Klein, the premise of the entire project is based upon the closing of High Street and the conversion of the area into a pedestrian mall. Because of conflicts with the city of Bellingham, the college has been unable to close High Street, even afterconstruction of the Garden Street bypass. Klein went on to describe details of the new music facilitieswith the aid of various drawings and a large scale model. The new recital hall, which can now be seensweeping out over the Garden Street bypass, will provide seating for 700 people. Klein said that the hallwill utilize continental seating, meaning that there will be no central aisles. He added that there will beplenty of room for movement along side aisles and between the rows of seats. The stage will be on thesame level as the first row of seats and will be large enough to accommodate a large orchestra. Thefloor of the hall will rise steeply, giving all seats a maximum view of the stage. The hall will be reservedstrictly for music presentations and recitals, freeing the present auditorium for theater and lecturepurposes. A large lobby is to be added to the present one serving the auditorium. Klein felt that thiswould make it possible for two f u n c t i o n s to go on simultaneouslyâ€”one in the recital hall and onein the auditorium. P l a n s call for the construction of a new lobby entrance; the entrance to theexisting auditorium will be glazed over to enclose studio offices. A large modern music library will beconstructed over the lobby which will include seminar and listening rooms, as well as additionalclassroom and practice space. The cement structure closest to the Bookstore will remain unfinishedinside because of lack of funds. When completed, A seminar on human s e x u a l i t y for teachers,counselors, clergymen and p e r s o n s in the medical profession is scheduled for May 12 and 13.Fairhaven administrator Dick Norris, one of the sponsors of the seminar, said he feels human sexualityis a topic of concern. Professionals are in a position to deal with people questioning their own sexuality,he said. " I f people in helping positions are uncomfortable with the subject of sexuality, they will beunable to deal with the person's problem," Norris said. "Their attitude and prejudices will be projectedinto' the counseling session." The National Sex and Drug Forum, sponsor of the seminar, has evolvedfrom the Glide Urban Center, a foundation financed by the Methodist Church. The Glide Urban Center isan a l t e r n a t e service organization which helps sponsor groups including the Gay People's Alliance,Senior Citizen's action groups and the Black Panthers. The seminar will be co-sponsored by Fairhavenand the Center for Continuing Studies. For further information contact Dick Norris at Fairhaven (676-3683). Vietnam vets tuition cut All Vietnam veterans who are paying resident tuition now qualify for areduced tuition of $120 per quarter. Previously only Vietnam veterans who resided in the state for oneyear prior to entering the armed forces qualified for the tuition break. All veterans who qualify under thenew ruling but paid regular resident tuition for this quarter can get a refund. They should take their DD214 to Lorraine McGaw in Old Main 108, who will then issue a refund slip. Veterans are also remindedthat the tuition break does not apply to Summer quarter, which is not considered part of the academicyear. Architect Henry Klein displays a model of Music Auditorium addition featuring a 700-seat recitalhall. Photo by Jim Thomson however, it will include two two-story rehearsal halls along with practicerooms and studio offices. The roof of the building will eventually become a brick plaza, connected to theVU plaza by a bridge, leaving the space below open to service vehicles. According to Klein, the closingof High Street is essential to the aesthetic qualities of the plaza. It will eventually extend across thestreet to link the library to the new music complex. Plans also call for benches, light standards andsome type of sculpture or other art work to highlight the plaza, which will command a view of Bellingham bay. Completion of the first phase of the project, the recital hall and music library, is expected nextspring. Klein said that bad weather has put construction 21 days behind schedule and he hopes that this time can be made up over the summer.

Perry by TERI PECHTHALTThe Rev. Troy Perry is gay. And he says God knows it. Rev. Perry is the founder of the MetropolitanCommunity Church in Los Angeles. He founded the church especially for gay people, and hiscongregation in LA has grown from 12 to 800 worshipers, since 1968. T h e M e t r o p o l i t anCommunity Church now includes 20 churches scattered across the United States. Rev. Perry hopes tostart a similar chapter in Seattle. Rev. Perry was a guest speaker for Gay Pride Week on Friday in theViking Union lounge, where he spoke about his life, his church and his homosexuality. Rev. Perry, whowas once married, and who has two children, told his enthusiastic audience that "the problem inAmerica is not homosexualityâ€” it's sexuality period." The 31-year-old Perry, who was asked to resignfrom the Pentacostal church, is considered to be one of the more militant homosexuals. He has beenarrested for participating in a protest march, and he has led such activities as sit-ins against gaydiscrimination. Rev. Perry laced his speech with a wit that attempted to destroy the traditional biblicalview of homosexuality as evil. The unorthodox preacher even marries homosexual couples in theMetropolitan Community Church, even though the marriages are not considered to be legal. Rev. Perrytold his audience that his church has facilities for crisis counseling, and that they also help gays whoare seeking employment, and those who are s e t t l i ng into their various communities. Democratsunanimously adopt anti-war platform byDANTOLVA The Whatcom County Democratic Party drafted aplatform calling for the immediate end to the war in V i e t n a m , withdrawal of American troops andadvisors from Southeast Asia, a halt to all bombing and cutting off of all military aid to Southeast Asiancountries. The anti-war plank was passed unanimously by Jackson and McGovern supporters alike.Passage of the resolution met with a prolonged standing ovation from the convention delegates. Theplatform also promised total amnesty for all draft resisters and deserters. This runs counter to the standtaken by Jackson, who was quoted in an Associated Press story Sunday as favoring jail terms ratherthan amnesty. E s t a b l i s h m e n t of an all-volunteer army and avoidance of foreign "entanglements" were also called for. The convention rejected President Nixon's welfare plan and called for a minimumguaranteed income of $3000 per person. In addition, surplus food would be distributed in addition to thefood stamp program. Education measure proposed in the platform include recognizing busing as atemporary "stop gap" measure for ending racial and cultural Latter Day Saints sponsors film The LatterDay Saints Student Association (LDSSA) is sponsoring a film, "Was Christ in America?" Thursday inVU 224 which will run continuously from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. The film, produced by the church, showsarcheological and historical evidence that Christ was in America. The film will run continuously that dayand admission is free. The LDSSA is a group of 65 active members with weekly meetings Tuesday andThursday nights. imbalance. Free tuition to all local and state schools^ is suggested also. Zeropopulation growth was endorsed by the convention. To achieve this, increased spending for research forimproved birth-control methods, including money "for the development of male contraceptives," wasrecommended. Prison reforms endorsed by the Democratic convention include non-restricted visitation,non-censorship of mail and abolition of capital punishment. Prisoner participation in collective bargainingis also suggested in the platform. The delegates took a dim view of driving while under the influence ofalcohol and other drugs, calling for a mandatory jail sentence and suspension of the offender's driver'slicense. Legalization of marijuana use was endorsed by the party, as well as increased rehabilitation forvictims of drug abuse and â€ž alcoholism. The Democrats oppose supertanker traffic in Puget Soundand development of new refineries, paper mills and aluminum plants are also discouraged. The a u t o m o b i l e was condemned by the democrats, and improvement of rapid transit systems through diversion of gasoline tax funds was proposed as a solution. Huxley College was praised in the party platform fortis recycling center and the public was urged to make better use of the Huxley facilities. Other planks in the platform include, â€”Elimination of penalties for "victimless" crimes. â€”Free legal aid for consumer protection suits. â€”Granting adult status to 18-year-old. â€” Economic controls on interest rates andprofits. â€”Enforcement of the dog control law and low cost sterilization for pets.

The liberal slate will represent WhatcomCounty at t h e D e m o c r a t i c State Convention in Seattle this June, where they will help elect sixat-large delegates to the national Democratic convention in Miama later this summer. The grueling 12-hour convention saw the walk out of many supporters of Washington Senator Henry M. "Scoop"Jackson after they mistakenly voted against a motion that would have assured them 23 of 29 alternatedelegates to the state convention. The motion came after the beleaguered Jackson contingent called for party unity after it became apparent that liberal supporters could sweep the alternate slate as easily asthey had the first slate. "I urge you not to shut out many good, hard-working Democrats. We've got tohang together or hang separately," said Muskie supporter Paul Roley. Confused Jackson supportersvoted down a compromise settlement, however, bringing shouts of rage from fellow Jacksonian Al Swift.McGovern forces finally swept the alternate slate as well after Jackson delegates headed by ManfredVernon left the convention.

"The state feels a gay mother is supposedly goingto raise her child to be a 'pervert' and a maladjusted person," Weldon said. Applicants for a marriagelicense must be healthy and over 18 years old. The law does not mention a person's sex, Weldon said.If the state can't show just r e a s o n , it must issue homosexuals a license. Judges will not issue alicense and the case must be brought to a court of appeals. Many gay people have children Welconsaid. Society feels homosexuals are not adequate parents. "Homosexuality is bad and if a homosexualhas a child, that child will be gay and there will be more bad." Of course this is not so, he said. Thesame theory of reasoning is used in the matter of homosexuals adopting children. "Being heterosexualdoesn't mean you're going to be a good parent. Look at the divorce rate." A h e a l t h atmosphereproduces a stable child, Weldon said. ' ' K i d s can l e a rn homosexuality is not a bad thing," he said. WashPIRG approaches Board again Thursday by BOB McLAUCHLAN Western's consumer advocacycrusador's second attempt for approval by the Board of Trustees may be met with the same stumblingblock which befell the University of Washington on April 21. The local chapter of the Washington PublicInterest Research Group (WashPIRG) will appear before the Board Thursday at 2 p.m. in Miller Hall 163. The UW Board of Regents sent the proposal back into committee for further study for the second time.The Student Affairs Committee's first recommendation which was temporarily rejected by the Board was that the university not serve as a collection agency for WashPIRG. "The setting of a precedent by such an act .'. . could give rise to many similar requests," the committee's statement said. "We recommendthat WashPIRG proceed as an independent campus group in fact free of University controls as theythemselves advocate." The committee felt that WashPIRG should raise its own money like "mostindependent, â€¢worthwhile organizations in our society"â€”such as the March of Dimes. The Board isalso waiting for an official statement by the attorney general's office on the legality of SI collection fee for each student at the time of tuition payment. The Regents have been waiting about two months for theofficial statement. WashPIRG organizers claim that the statement has already been finished and theattorney general's office is only stalling for time. The Board of Regents has already been informed by the assistant attorney general that WashPIRG is defensibly legal, but had to wait for the official word, ---------- Western Front - 1972 May 2 - Page 7 ---------- Tuesday, May 2, 1972 Western Front 7 Dawn light is coming, Slowly . . . very slowly . . . m My headfeels heavy just like my heart. my eyes are closing but my brain is wide awake . . . drowsiness iscoming . . .

Chicano culture week sponsored by MECHA Esperanza Brito by KATHISANDBOE MECHA (Movimiento E s t u d i a n t i l Chicano de Aztlan)-the Chicano studentunionâ€”has scheduled speakers, films, a panel, an arts and crafts display, and a dinner for the ChicanoCulture Week, which began yesterday and will run through Friday. Chicano Culture Week kicked offwith an arts and crafts display in the VU Art Gallery. The display will run all week. There are two filmstoday, "Heulga" and "The Invincible Minority." "Huelga" is about the United Farm Workers, organized by Cesar Chavez. It gives a history of the grape strike and deals with its difficulties, its struggles and thefirst contracts signed. The best film scheduled, "The Invincible Minority," is narrated by ErnestoGalarza. The film deals with how the Chicano people migrated from Mexico to the United states andlooks at their present living conditions. It looks at why the Chicanos differ from other minorities andfocuses on important events that caused the Chicano movement in the U.S. There will also be a speaker today, Ricardo Garcia, who will speak at 2 p.m. in the VU on Chicano involvement in the state ofWashington. Garcia is the p r e s e n t director of the Governor's committee on Mexico-American affairs.He has been very active in Chicano affairs in the state and is involved in the struggle for recognition ofthe United Farm Workers Union in Yakima Valley. TOMORROW Rene Nunez will speak at 2 p.m. inthe VU lounge on Chicano oppression in America. Nunez is an associate professor of Mexican-American studies at San Diego State College. He has been very active in promoting sociological change in Chicano communities. Nunez has also been instrumental in the d e v e l o p m e n t of variouscommunity oriented programs, and has been a key figure in the Chicanos shout 'Ya Basta The Chicanopeople, having been bred in the image of the Anglo, having been subjected to a second-classcitizenship, having-been labeled as a people without a country and. having begun realizing andunderstanding what the. Anglo has made them are c o m i n g to know those representatives of theAnglo society, no longer crawling but standing up and shouting, "Ya Basta." Having observed andlearned f r om "carnales" in the Southwest, we come to you representing the Northwest knowing wherethe power lies and place our demands as a united people. We hope to avoid the wasting of time, oursand money, yours, by showing you that the problems that do exist are a result of action taken or nottaken by your power structure, that it was the Anglo's choice not to allow us our rights as human beings, that by their actions, their words, they created the spic, the dirty Mexican, the grieser, the wetback.The Chicano To you we say our time has come, that our chicanitos will not have to fight for those rightsdenied us, granted to all men by their creator and taken away by their fellow man. History is beingmade. Chicanos are no longer willing to work your fields for pennies, no longer willing to be treated likedirt, to be stepped on, to be blown by the wind while filling the Anglos pockets. We are proud people, nolonger do we ask, no longer to we request or sign meaningless papers, now we demand, demand thatyou realize what you have done, what you have let go undone. Demand that you realize how the Anglosystem has failed the Chicano student by confusing him with irrelevant curriculum, trying to link him tothe Mayflower. Instead of having Sally, Jane and Dick, Snowwhite and Goldilocks, and other Whiteimages, new images must be developed for chicanitos. One other source of prejudice and discriminationagainst Chicanos is the traditional historical source whish is part of the cultural heritage. Many attitudes and behavior patterns exist today primarily because they have been passed down through the socialheritage not because they are currently true or any longer exploitatively useful. Children receive mose of their attitudes through the process of socialization into their particular culture or sub-culture. Morespecifically, there exists today much prejudice against Chicanos beecause such attitudes were held bythe previous generation or by someone else participating in the socializing process, and the childrenabsorbed the other aspects of the social heritage being passed on to them. Such prejudice may or maynot be deep, the point is that it exists regardless of the fact that is no longer serves any purpose foranyone.

Strip tease climaxes Gay Pride Week A female-impersonator strip tease in the VikingUnion lounge last Friday night climaxed what was claimed to be the country's first college appearance of a female impersonator group. "The Stars," three female impersonators currently booked at a Seattleclub, told the audience the group's appearance on a college campus was "a history-making event." Theperformance was the finale to "Gay Pride Week," a series of events aimed at homosexual awareness.The show was sponsored by the Gay People's Alliance and the Activities Council. Bobbie, billed as "the Pacific Northwest's foremost female i m p e r s o n a t o r , " performed song-and-dance routines. John-John, "300 pounds of f a n t a s t i c f l e s h , " was impersonating the heavies. Mistie Dawn, "perfectionin motion," stripped to the waist just before the final blackout. "We're all people," Bobbie said to themixed audience of homosexuals and "straight" people at the end of the show. "Whatever you are,whatever you do, do it well," he said. John-John, billed as 300 pounds of fantastic flesh, is a loving,friendly young man who enjoys making people laugh. During his slap-stick comedy routine, he swings a feather boa around while gyrating all 300 pounds to the beat of "The Vamp of Savannah." Misty Dawnperforms mostly to soul music which he said allows him to extract the heart and soul from a song andcommunicate it to the audience by a single turn of the head or a movement of the hand. Billed as theNorthwest's f o r e m o s t f e m a le impersonator, Bobbie has been a homosexual for 13 years and is"glad of it." He is pictured here embracing Rebecca Valrejean, founder of the radical lesbian feministcoalition now operating out of Seattle. He closes each show with his philosophy of life: "Whatever youare, whatever you may be, be a good one!"

For the people who made the mistake of getting old,Kramer has suggested turning some of the school buildings into community centers when they are notused for the education of the young. He has suggested using rural school busses as a transportationsystem for the elderly so they could more easily take advantage of our urban areas. He sums up hisefforts as trying to bring our senior c i t i z e n s back into the mainstream of life.

Rather he believesyoung people are going t h r o u g h a p e r i o d of re-assessment. They are trying to figure out wherethey fit in our current political ken.

More than 80 decisions will have to be made onissues affecting citizens statewide, in areas of tax reform, legislative referendums, initiatives, sea coastmanagement, plus the national election and local issues. A voter will have only two minutes in thevoting machine to pull the levers that signify his decision. At the meeting with the senior citizens heurged them to vote by absentee ballot and avoid the crush at the polls.

Frorit 9 Walking candidate drives here to talk Will Knedlik The walkingcandidate for lieutenant governor, Will Knedlik, returned to Belhngham (by car) last Wednesday andtalked to a small group of students in Viking Union 355. K n e d l i k hiked into Belhngham from Ferndale on April 21 on one stretch of his 1 ,500-mile walk through Washington State. He said his campaignmethod is a gimmick, but it's one that gets him "out to the people." He said his campaign method is agimmicbut it's one that gets him "out to the people." He thinks he must get out to the people becausehe is an unknown, some consider him too young for office (he is 25) and he has never won an electionbefore. "There's no way for a person to ask questions of a candidate who is sandwiched between'Bonanza' and 'Flip Wilson,' " Knedlik, who is against canned television advertising, said. Knedlik doesn't believe it is possible for a candidate to o v e r l o o k large ampaign contributors when, they ashisreason for not accepting any contribution -over-$20. "It's more important that if I do win, I can be my ownman," he said. $1,000,000 television van visits Western's campus byRlCKRIES Debaters win honorsThree students from Western won top honors at the North Idaho Panhandle Invitational DebateTournament, recently at North Idaho College in Coeur d'Alene.

Western totaled66 points, far behind meet winner University of Puget Sound, which had 120. Whitman College took third with 38, followed by Walla Walla Community College with 24 and the Olympia Track Club with T4."We just didn't run well at all," Bowman said. "Nearly all of our times were below normal. I don't knowwhether it was the wind, the track or something else." The Vikings came up with only two first placefinishes out of 17 events, as they won both hurdle events. Ken Johnson, sophomore from Bellingham,won the 120-yd. highs in 15.6, and Mike Vorce, sophomore from Lyle, won the 440-yd. intermediates in54.3.

Highline Community College will travel to Western Thursday for a meet on the Carver Gymcourts at 3 p.m. by Kent Sherwood The bats awake from hibernation It's probably too late, but Vikingbaseball coach Larry Vance has finally found the hitting that seemed to be non-existent for all too long.After having sincere pennant expectations before the season began, Vance found his squad losing gameafter game because the Viks simply couldn't come up with enough hits. The streak of losses followed aperiod where losing wasn't a problem, but playing was. If anywhere ever needed a domed stadium, thenit's the Pacific Northwest. But since there isn't one, early spring baseball contests are continuallycanceled out because of inclement and sometimes indecent weather. The Vikings had game after gamecalled, and when they finally got some in the results were disastrous. Western edged EvergreenConference leader Oregon College of Education 2-1 in a rain shortened game, but had the other twogames of the three-game series canceled. Under Evco rules, cancelations are not made up. It had beenmentioned in this space earlier in the season that a team must play at least 20 games to be consideredeligible for the district playoffs. At that time it seemed that the Vikings would not get that quota in. Butfollowing the OCE win, Western finally played some games and went back to hoping for bad weather afterlosing three to Eastern Washington and three to Central. But the main reason for losing had been that,while Vik pitching was doing more than a credible job, Vik hitting was nearly nil. The pre-seasonprospectus on the Western nine was that the team had an ample supply of hitters with one good,experienced pitcher, Don Balke. The rest of the pitching, supposedly, was questionable behindunseasoned Rich Shadle, Leo Gauthier and Greg Turner. The key, apparently, was whether these threewould respond positively or negatively. The trio and Balke came through with some fine throwing, whichkept the games close. But the hitting just disappeared. Ron Porterfield, All-Evco selection at first baselast year, went into a terrible slump, and the rest of the squad followed. When the Viks did manage to geta runner in scoring position, the next hitter seemed to find ways of ending the rally. But, perhaps thisdrought was ended with a series sweep against Oregon Tech this weekend. The Vikings produced the hits which they seemed to have been storing up for a sunny day. Western produced 30 hits in the threegames, along with 30 runs to send the winless Owls back to Klamath Falls still winless, and slightlybattered. The hits came in nearly every form: -doubles, infield hits, short bloopers and sharp liners,including a home run by Bruce Maupin. OTI errors also helped the Viks, but they probably only made thescores bigger. Vance has probably realized that his Viks are out of the running for the Evco pennant,with only three league games to go and trailing OCE by four and one-half games. However, it must be ofsome comfort to know that those hits were there all along. They were just oversleeping from the winter'shibernation. 10 MISC.

The Vikings defeated PacificLutheran University Thursday in a non-league game, 5-4, and followed with three victories over OregonTechnical Institute, winning 11-2 on Friday, and 8-1 and 11-1 in a double header Saturday.

Leo Gauthier was the winning pitcher, allowing just five hits, twoof them by Owl catcher Mike Fisher. OTI's runs came in the sixth when Russ Anderson single andHarley James walked. Jim Estes singled Anderson in and Fisher singled James across. In Saturday'sfirst game, Western scored seven runs in three innings as Balke kept OTI batters stranded on thebases. Oregon Tech had seven hits, but could not score until the final inning, when Anderson singledand scored following an error, a walk and a fielder's choice. Western's scoring punch was paced bydoubles by Porterfield, Martin and Jackson and a two-for-three, two RBI hitting performance by Balke,who had not had a hit yet this year. Balke's pitching struck out seven Owls as the Edmonds senior gothis fourth win against three losses. In the second game, Rick Shadle had a no-hitter going for fiveinnings, until OTI hurler Dennis Bailey opened the sixth with a sharp single to center. Tech scored itsonly run with two out in the seventh as Ed Thorn slid across home just under Shadle's tag after Vikcatcher Syd Sharp let a pitch get past him. W e s t e r n ' s scoring was highlighted by a seven runoutburst in the second inning as Bobillot and John Bates had doubles and Shadle, Martin and Bobillothad singles. A two-run home run in the fourth by outfielder Bruce Maupin following a Porterfield doublecapped Western's weekend scoring. Maupin's four-bagger just cleared the left field fence, 322-feet away.

Williams has proclaimed May 8-12 as "Hirethe Veteran Week" to draw community support for the Veteran Opportunity Fair sponsored by theCollegiate Veterans. The fair will be held on May 10 and 11 at the American Legion A. J. Hamilton Post, 7203 W. Chestnut St., between the hours of 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. The purpose of the fair is to increasecountywide awareness Police protest J o i n i n g the ranks of protestors across the country, B e l l i ng h a m u n i f o r m ed employees were out picketing for their own cause earlier last week. P o l i c e of f i c e r s and f i r e f i g h t e r s handed out information about the "shame of Bellingham" in front of city hall in hopes of raising interest in their fight for higher wages. Without a raise in salary since January,1970, the police have been negotiating with the city along with other uniformed employees for the pastsix months with no settlement. Teamster spokesman Marvin Eggert, who is the bargaining agent for the employees, said his people are "tired of being stalled" and placed at the bottom of the list on citypriority matters. Bellingham Mayor Reg Williams said that the city is without funds to grant more than a three per cent raise at this time without additional city taxes or by laying off people. If necessary, hesaid, the city will not go the tax route. The mayor was jeered several times by city employees duringthe meeting, but came back at the standing room only crowd of 100 by saying their signs of protest were "colorful and entertaining."

Fair organizers will also provide information concerning recent andproposed legislative changes affecting the rights and benefits of veterans. The area's largest employers,INTALCO, Western, ARCO, Georgia Pacific, Columbia Cement, Mobile Oil and Uniflite have all agreed to participate in the fair. "However, other than W e s t e r n , , none of these employers have jobs to offerat the fair," Ted L.

Smaller employersin the area haven't been contacted yet. "It should be emphasized that this is an opportunity programrather than actual job offers," King said.

The name of D. B. Cooper was used by the man who escaped by parachutelast Nov. 24 with $200,000 after hijacking a 727 jetliner on a Seattle to Portland, Ore. flight. The SeattleFlag said it bought the interview, conducted by an anonymous "ordinary looking man of 20 years plus"for $ 1,000 after the man showed a photograph of a $20 bill and said it was part of the bundle of m a r k e d $20 bills given "Cooper." The Flag said the serial number of the photographed bill was verified as oneof the bills given the hijacker. The transcription quoted "Cooper" as saying it took him a year, sixmonths to plan the hijacking-extortion, that he was a former Boeing employe who had worked on the 727 project, an experienced skydiver, unmarried and without friends. The hijacker also was quoted assaying the first thing he did when he l a n d e d after parachuting from the 727 was to bury his parachute. According to the report, "Cooper" landed 100 miles from where the FBI thought he landed and waswithin five miles of his targeted landing. The Flag said the interview was conducted in March,somewhere in the Seattle metropolitan area. The Flag quoted the hijacker as saying he granted theinterview because "it's very hard to keep a story like mine inside." The hijacker also was quoted assaying he pulled the hijacking "because it was fun" and for the money. "Cooper" was quoted further assaying he was leaving for "parts unknown" and would return in about five years when "the statue oflimitations" runs out.

Amchitka blast stirs walkout By DAN TOLVA Protest against theAmchitka test continues today after a rally yesterday in Red Square turned into a march on City Hall.Another rally at City Hall is scheduled today at 11 a.m., with demonstrations also planned for the PeaceArch Wednesday at noon. Between three and four hundred students paraded downtown yesterday topressure Mayor Reg Williams to send telegrams to Gov. Dan Evans expressing opposition to the test bythe Bellingham community. Further, march leaders called for the mayor to detail emergency measuresshould the Amchitka test backfire. Williams refused to send the telegram, saying that the students didn'trepresent the whole community of Bellingham. "If you want to send a telegram saying that you representonly one group of citizens, that's fine," Williams said. The groups confronted Williams on the steps ofCity Hall, pressuring him to take a stand on the Amchitka test. He refused, saying that he didn't know"how I'm going to resolve it by Thursday." Williams answered the students' questions on emergencyplanning by producing two Civil Defense Officials who assured them that contingency plans had beenstudied. Herb Miller, county director of the Civil Defense agency, told the students that Bellingham andWestern were made aware of emergency procedures last March. Earlier at the rally in Red Square, about 750 students heard Wilfred Wasson, professor of ethnic studies, describe the test as an "ego trip."They've got a toy, they've just got to use it.

Fairhaven College plans new quarter system ByBILL DIETRICH The Fairhaven Policy Board, the cluster college's principal governing body, has approveda radically different academic plan for Fairhaven. Unless Fairhaven students actively oppose the plan, itwill be in effect winter quarter. The plan calls for dividing the quarter into five two-week sessions. Each ofthe first four sessions would be used for two weeks of concentrated study in one subject at Fairhaven.The fifth session, in the middle of the quarter, would be a vacation. Usually four credits would be given for each session, although the number would vary. No serious opposition is expected from either Fairhavenor Western students. At an all-college meeting recently, only three Fairhaven students in a crowdestimated at one hundred voted against the idea. The chief objection to the plan came from peoplewanting to take both Fairhaven and. Western classes. Fairhaven's Dean Freeman said that, "If you've gotthree or four classes you want to take at Western, you might as well forget it." (Forget trying to take anyFairhaven classes that quarter.) Freeman suggested however that students could take Western classesand independent study at Fairhaven. Another fear was that the number of students per class would soarunder the proposed plan. Freeman admitted that might happen if all Fairhaven students took onlyFairhaven classes that quarter, but he doubted that that would be the case. Students at Fairhavenseemed to generally be in favor of the plan. Even those who doubted that it would succeed were willing to try it and some thought that it was good that Fairhaven was retaining an innovative atmosphere.However, a few had doubts about spending two entire weeks on one subject. Course ideas are alreadybeing proposed for the quarter. They range from a sailing class to a two-week world history class. Oneproposed class is to be an experiment in structure and freedom. Students would be required to rise at 6a.m. and follow a strictly regimented schedule until 11 p.m., with periods for exercise, study and eating.The idea would be to see if students perform better in conditions of structure rather than conditions ofpersonal freedom. Final course proposals will come out in time for Fairhaven winter quarter registration.Inter-Ethnic Committee offers education services for students The Inter-Ethnic Communication Committee (IECC), in existence since last summer, is offering a service to White students on campus, in anattempt to educate them about minority culture. According to Rick Davis, IECC chairman and a seniorEthnic Studies major from Seattle, the organization consists of members from the Student Movement forChicanos of Aztlan (MECHA), the Black Student Union (BSU), Asian Students, and the American IndianStudent Union (AISU). There are presently about 15 members organizing the committee. Three culturecenters have been set up on campus where White students can come and learn about the variouscultures of Western's minority organizations. The culture centers are located in Higginson Hall,Ridgeway Delta, and Ridgeway Kappa. Libraries are available in all three centers as well as ethnic musicand guest speakers. Volunteer help in needed to man the culture centers. Students interested inmanning the centers for about an hour per day are asked to contact Davis at 676-4361. IECC receives its money from Western, the United Church of Christ, the Activities Commission, and Interhall Council(IHC). A meeting will be held Nov. 4 at 3 p.m. in the IHC room, located in Upper Saga. Steeringcommittees will be organized, and long-range plans will be discussed. Speech , hearing therapy clinicneeds trained help By STEPHANY BRUELL There is a growing need for trained speech and hearingtherapists in the areas surrounding Bellingham. The Speech and Hearing Clinic at Western is presentlyserving 180 clients, some of whom come from as far as Skagit and Island counties. Time and distanceprevent a great many more children and adults from benefiting from the facilities. In an effort to help more children and adults, the Speech and Hearing Clinic will be sending student therapists, with supervision,to Mount Vernon and, possibly to Anacortes, to begin a clinic similar to the facility at Western. Theconcept of regional clinics was initiated by Bev Richmond, a graduate student in speech therapy fromVancouver, B.C., and Sam Polen, last summer's clinic co-ordinator. The proposed clinic met with greatenthusiasm, however, the clinic soon ran into problems. There is no state or federal money available forthe regional clinic program. Luckily for the clinic, school officials and interested citizens are taking someof the initiative in raising the money. The Mount Vernon school district is enthusiastically supporting theclinic as they are faced with a heavy caseload and recognize a need for therapy for pre-school childrenand adults. Until the clinic can get money from the state, a minimal fee will be charged to pay fortransportation and equipment. A Presbyterian church will house the clinic and a local speech clinician inMount Vernon, Diane Hall, will serve as clinic co-ordinator and supervisor. Loren Webb, director of theSpeech and Hearing Clinic, said the students are supportive of the new clinic and eager to volunteer.Students in therapy are required to have a certain amount of hours in clinical practice which they fulfullthrough the clinic on campus. Service in the new clinic is on a volunteer basis, although the hours canapply to accredation. But Webb explained, "We want students to begin thinking in terms of experience,not academic hours." Webb sees the new clinic as valuable experience for his students while they areproviding a community service. The clinic will operate every Saturday for the rest of the year, even if thestate cannot provide the money. Webb believes the clinic will succeed regardless of financial difficulties."In any kind of therapy, the important ingredient is the human element." ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 2 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, November 2, 1971 Western From Secretary of State raps on key issues By JIM BROOKS-"I'm not opposed to demonstrations, although I work essentially within the system, but the time todemonstrate is before a decision it made or a bill is passed." Washington's Secretary of State A. Ludlow "Lud" Kramer was on campus last Thursday talking to about a dozen invited students on a number ofissues facing the state. Kramer believes that the drive to register the 18 to 20-year-olds is shaping upwell though this is not a national election year. At the present time, 40,000 of the state's 190,000 eligible young voters have registered. "If, in the 1972 presidential campaign, we see an emotional campaignbetween two distinct choices such as Nixon against Kennedy more young people will become involvedand take the opportunity to register," Kramer said. He said that the reason 18-year-olds weren't given the right to drink along with their other newly acquired rights was due "more to politics than legitimacy." "I've already talked to two legislators who said that next time they would vote for the measure since theywere recently re-elected," Kramer said. Kramer expressed his opinion that many slate offices should beappointed rather than elected, including his own. "If the people are going to elect a governor they shouldgive him the tools to get the job done," Kramer said. He noted that under the present election system,the treasurer is elected by banking interests and the insurance commissioner by influential insuranceinterests. Therefore, he said, these officials don't always represent the people. Kramer thinks the present hitch-hiking law should be repealed, noting that Washington State is one of the few states in the nationwich such a law, and the chance may come in the 1973 legislative session. Secretary of State A. "Lud"Kramer talked to students last week on issues such as the 18-year-old-vote and drinking and hitch-hiking laws. Photo by JIM THOMSON Western to vote today in first senate elections By BOB BURNETTToday is voting day. Students will elect 13 student senators from a field of 60 candidates. Facultymembers will elect 20 faculty senators from a field of more than 40 candidates. The Administration willelect two senators at large and the Classified Staff will elect three senators at large. When the 38senators to be elected today sit down with the three faculty at large senators elected last week and thetwo ex-officio senate members, they will comprise an entirely new governance system for this college.The All-College Senate, long in the making, will become a reality. ' It will combine representatives fromthe four areas of the college - students, faculty, administration and staff - on a single, centralizedgoverning body. The body elected today will, perhaps, be the most important body ever elected atWestern, for its decisions, constitutional revisions and policy changes will affect directly the actions ofthe senate for years to come. After a trial period, the Board of Trustees will evaluate the new governancesystem and, if it has been effective, the Board will ratify the senate and the yet-to-be-changedconstitution, making them permanent fixtures of this institution. Students and faculty will vote togetherfrom 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. in the VU lounge. They will vote on separate ballots, one listing the studentcandidates and the other listing the faculty candidates. Administrators will vote from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. inOld Main 116. Their ballots will list only the administration candidates. The ballots listing the classifiedstaff candidates will be delivered to the staff and retrieved from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. by members of the StaffEmployee's Council Elections Committee. Each of the four separate ballot forms has spaces for write-incandidates. The election results will be compiled following the election and a complete list of the newsenators and the areas from which they were elected will appear in Friday's Front. For more on that theAllrCollege Senate means to Western, see page 8. No registrations to be mai Advance registrationappointments for winter quarter will not be mailed to students. Instead, beginning Friday, students willhave to pick up their own registration appointments at the Registration Center, ground floor, Edens Hall.Robert W. Thirsk, assistant registrar, said Friday that "the economic state of the college, and the highcost of postage" has prohibited the mailing of advance registration appointments this year. Thirsk saidthe Registration Center will be open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and students should pick up theirappointments according to the following schedule: Friday, Nov. 5 - Graduates and Seniors Monday, Nov.8 - Juniors Tuesday, Nov. 9 - Sophomores Wednesday, Nov. 10 - Freshmen The appointments alreadyhave been determined on the basis of total cumulative credits, Thirsk said, so it is not necessary forstudents to be first in line, thinking that the appointments are made on a first come, first served basis. "Ifthere appears to be a line-up, students are asked to come back some other time during the day" as thepick-up time will have' no bearing on the appointment time, he said. Amchitka blast stirs student walkout (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) irresponsible children," Wasson said. Other speakers charged the Nixonadministration with moving the test to Amchitka in order to spare whites from possible harm. Organizerscalled for a class boycott that would hopefully spread up and down the west coast. Other activities willinclude a drive to get people to send telegrams to President Nixon to stop the test. The boycott."wasorganized by the College of Ethnic Studies with the support of AS President Tod Sundquist, the BlackStudent Union, the Asian Student Union, the Indian Student Union and MECHA (Student Movement forChicanos of Aztlan). Other groups supporting the boycott are the Women's Commission, the PeoplesCoalition and Veterans for Peace. March boycott coordinator Ken La Fontaine, urged students to walk-out in a series of speeches last Friday, calling the Amchitka test "absolutely unnecessary." "Dick Nixon is showing absolutely no regard for public safety," charged La Fontaine, a junior from Seattle majoring inEthnic Studies. He charged that five of seven government agencies consulted, about the proposedunderground blast off the Alaska coast labeled the test "unnecessary." The two departments to supportthe test were the Atomic Energy Commission and the Defense Department, La Fontaine said. Thewarhead being tested was already obsolete, having been replaced by the ABM and MIRV systems,according to La Fontaine. He quoted Secretary of Devense Melvin Laird as saying, "It (the test) is notnecessary for national defense." AS President Tod Sundquist gave support to the walk-out, calling theNixon decision "a bureaucratic political blunder." "The executive branch of AS government fully supportsthe boycott," Sundquist said. He added three provisions under which the boycott would be acceptable;that, students be allowed to attend class if wish, -activities must not be destructive and -nodemonstrations be held beyond perimeters of the campus. . College President Charles J. Flora gavereluctant support to the boycott, calling efforts too little and too late. "Where was everybody two monthsago when this thing could have been stopped?" Flora asked. "I really don't think that one demonstrationat Western will change anything, not at this late date," he added. Flora indicated that no sanctionswould be placed on those boycotting their classes. "Students have every right to express their concernon these issues," Flora said.

The King'sdecision was unpopular with many of his people, but this wasn't the first time he had made an unpopulardecision. If his decision was in error, it could harm not only his own country and people but also thepeoples of many nearby countries, both friend and foe alike. "You can't risk a catastrophe," cried thepeople. "I know better than you what is good for you," replied the King. So it went, the people pleadedand begged the King to reconsider his decision, but it was all to no avail. The King, as Kings usually do,had his way. The decision would be carried out. Apprehensively, the people awaited the day of thedecision's results. That day finally came; the King secure in his belief that he had been correct inmaking the decision, awaited the results. At last, a trusted aide rushed to his side with a message. TheKing read the message, shook his head, looked up and muttered "oops." We hope that after Thursday'sAmchitka nuclear test blast President Nixon does not have the occasion to use such a word as "oops."If you disagree with the President's decision, we urge you to join this week's class walkout in protest ofthe Amchitka blast.

I was only 19 then and it was exciting . . . well theelection itself was dull, but the reactions of persons over 30 years old were exciting. You see, that wasthe year after they changed the Constitution to allow 18- to 20-year-olds to vote. But as the campaigningbegan many people questioned the wisdom of giving young people such tangible power. After all, thephrase "work within the system," was in many cases a tactful way of saying "be quiet and couth until you are old enough to be smart." And these worries were not unfounded. Why, only a few years before theamendment, voters in Berkeley elected a "hippie" as major and look what he did to that Californiacityâ€”not a riot nor major disturbance during his term in office. Several Kansas communities elected"long-hairs" to the prestigious position of justice of the peace. However, in retaliation for this invasion ofthe "system" the state attorney general pointed out that several years earlier the office had beenabolished by the legislature. And finally in desperation someone decided they couldn't decide wherecollege students should vote. Should the student vote where his parents pay taxes or where he spendsmost of the year. The question became particularly perplexing in college and university towns wherestudents outnumbered the local citizenry. Many such communities were concerned that "pinko-liberal-radicals" would take over their city halls. College students became entangled in an electorate limbo andmight have remained there had not the judicial system entered the picture. The "liberals of thebench"â€”as the elders affectionately called them-declared that if the constitutional amendment saysyoung people can vote, they can vote. Yes, in the year before the election even the President who wasardently, but rather unsuccessfully, trying to keep college students out of the draft and into jobs collecteda few gray hairs. His concern was magnified in statistics which indicated the youth vote would play alarge role in states where he had scored marginal victories four year earlier. But as the deadlines for voter registration drew near, most of these fears were calmed and the newly enfranchised young peoplefollowed in the footsteps of their forefathers. It seemed the American dream was never to be bothered with registration and voting, and with even more success than their parents, most young people slept through the election. And through the years young jjeople have advocated change 364 days a year but failed toset their alarm clocks on the first Tuesday following the first Monday in November. I've always wondered if my vote would have made a difference that year. Veterans rejoice thy savior cometh by Morris G.Swadener League of Collegiate Veterans president In a recent Western Front editorial, the financial perils confronting the collegiate veteran and his educational allowances was descriptively pointed out. Theeditorial suggested that there was a move afoot in Congress to increase the G.B. Bill educational benefits. At present, there are four bills in committee that will affect practically every veteran on this campus.These four bills are Senate Bill 1918, 9994, 9632, and 9295. At present the League of Collegiate Veterans has a copy of Senate Bill' 191 8. This bill has been introduced by the presidential aspirant, Sen. GeorgeMcGovem, D-S.D. The bill calls for an amendment to Chapter 34 of Title 38, United States Code, toprovide additional benefits to veterans who have served in the Indo-China theater of operations during theVietnam era. Specifically, the bill reads that any eligible Vietnam veteran enrolled in a full-time or part-time course of education or training shall be reimbursed for items such as tuition, laboratory, library,health, informary and other similar fees and for expenses incurred for books, supplies, equipment andother necessary expenses. This portion cannot exceed $3,000 for an ordinary school year. Thereimbursement doesn't include board, lodging and other living expenses, or travel. Furtuermore, asprovided in a sub-section in this bill, an eligible Vietnam veteran shall be paid a monthly subsistenceallowance, which would give $214 a month for a single full-time veteran college student. A married veteranwith three dependents will receive $414 a month and $61 a month for each additional dependent. A quicklook at this bill should cause shouts of joy for all financially depressed veterans attempting to attendschool on the present G.l. Bill. Unfortunately, a cold wet blanket has to be thrown over the entire bill as itis written, in that the term "eligible Vietnam veteran" is defined as a veteran who has served more than180 days in the Indo-China theater of operations or who has been disabled as a result of hostile action inthat area. A term in Indo-China theater operation means North or South Vietnam, Cambodia or Laos, thus eliminating a vast majority of the 14 million Vietnam era veterans. As of yet, copies of the three othersenate bills has not been received by the League of Collegiate Veterans for study. It is quite apparentthat Sen. McGovern with his presidential aspirations, hopes to use this bill to solicit the support of theVietnam veteran. Unfortunately, this type of politician who finds it necessary to dupe a vast majority ofthe voting population in order to gain political office ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 2 - Page 5 ---------- Tuesday, November 2, 1971 Western Front Letters from our readers All letters to the editor and guesteditorials are welcome.

Humanities Helpers defendedDear Editor: It seems that recently Humanities Helpers has come under open criticism from certainmembers of the faculty. It would perhaps be best to make certain things clearer in the minds of students and faculty concerning the operation of Humanities Helpers. The conscientious student uses our notesas a supplement to his own. He does not use them as an excuse for missing class. (After all, we are allpaying money for the privilege of going to class.) Our notes give the student a firm base of what thelecturer has said. Many students find that with the H H notes they can relax and pay closer attentionto the lecturer, instead of hastily attempting to get all of that possible test material down on paper. â€¢Professor Southcott stated, in his Oct. 15 letter to the Front, "The quality of a human teacher is his orher ability to add personal observation that at times becomes more meaningful to the student than meredata." This is exactly our intended purpose. The student is released from the tedium of taking downrepetitive data by having someone else do it for him. He can feel freer to think and draw conclusions inhis own mind the doctor's bag QUESTION: During the past couple of months, whenever I becomesexually aroused, even the slightest bit, I experienced extreme stomach pains anywhere from a half hourafter arousal until the next day. These pains are very sharp and prolonged. What causes these painsand since I refuse to abstain what can I dca"bout them? (This letter was written by a man.) ANSWER:Prolonged sexual arousal without release can cause pain due to the swelling of the testicles. Theswelling is due to vascular engorgement. Abdominal pain with sexual arousal in a man is extraordinarilyrare. A urologist tells me that it is possible to have a seminal duct cyst in the abdomen because ofsome developmental abnormality. When the sexual apparatus becomes excited that piece of it which isstill inside your belly becomes excited too but presses against a variety of structures that have aplentiful nerve supply, causing the pain. Evaluation by a urologist, including X-rays to show kidneyfunction, would be indicated if this symptom persists. :j: * # * * * * * * * QUESTION: 1 am planning onhaving another child soon and hope to nurse the baby, but have been reading lately that mother's breastmilk has so much DDT in it that it could not be sold in a store. Is this true? Since DDT is stored in fattissues can you get rid of it by dieting? Also, we eat a lot of liver, heart, etc.; is that where DDT isstored? ANSWER: While it is true that trace amounts of DDT can be found in human milk (as well as incow's milk) the amount is very small and fortunately not harmful. The presence of DDT in mother's milkhas been used to dramatize the degree to which we have become poisoned by a variety of substancesalong with our environment. Some women have been frightened into thinking that it is dangerous tobreast feed their children, but mother's milk is generally a pure product subject to fewer contaminationsthan cow's milk. An expert in pesticides helped during the lecture. It must be pointed out that our notes are offered only in basic General Studies and graduation requirement classes. These classes arerequired and a student must take them in most cases, if he likes it or not. Even you must admit,Professor Southcott, that while the tech â€¢ department may have excellent draftsmen and mechanics,some of these students just might have difficulty understanding and passing a course on African andIndian cultures. As long as General Studies classes continue to be huge, impersonal and required, there will be students who will need help. We also highly resent Professor Southcott's analogy to Humanities Helpers being an organization akin to "dope pushers." The note takers working for H H are allqualified students who are under a penalty system which fines them for mistakes. We think out notesare good and we're constantly striving to make them better all the time. I must also condemn the Frontfor not clearing their story through me before printing it. Mrs. Ringold was only guessing at certain facts,one of which was last year's budget figure. As i t was, it created some misconceptions. That figure wasapproximately $12,000, not $21,000. Of that figure allotted to us, only about $8,500 was used. Tim R.Lane Manager Humanities Helpers By ARNOLD WERNER, M.D. Address letters to Dr. Arnold Werner, Box 974, East Lansing, Michigan, 48823. with the following information: losing weight only tends toconcentrate the amount of DDT in less fat. It has no advantages in eliminating the DDT. He alsoindicated that organs such as liver, brain, kidneys- and heart tend to contain much less DDT than otherparts of the body. At least in part, this is related to the relative absence of fat in these organs. Question:Recently there have been many a d v e r t i s e m e n t s for "waterbeds." Are they good for the back?Over a long period of time could they be harmful to posture? Are they better than a firm mattress? A n sw e r : Waterbeds are mattress-shaped bags made of a heavy weight flexible plastic and filled with about 200 gallons of water. Because the water can shift around within its container, a comfortable sensation of lying on a supporting surface that yields completely to any small movement is created. People whopurchase them claim that they help induce restful sleep. Advertisements play up how enveloping,security inducing and relaxing the waterbed is. They also hint that there are some sexual benefits to bereaped from their use. Whether the waterbed enhances sensuality would be difficult to evaluate. A friend indicates that a new dimension is added to intercourse since the bed is so responsive, but he adds that if one is in a hurry, it is easy to lose your balance. The recent medical literature does not containinformation about harmful or beneficial effects when the waterbed is used for back trouble or posture. Myorthopedic consultant advises that sleeping on your abdomen in any kind of bed would aggravate backtrouble. For low back pain, sleeping on your side on a firm mattress or placing the mattress and the floor is recommended. If you must sleep on your back, pillows should be inserted under the knees to flattenout the hollow of the back. A word of caution, a gallon of water weighs eight pounds. Some waterbedsweigh nearly a ton.

This so-called symposium didnothing but prove to me that Womens Liberation has no s a t i s f a c t o r y alternative for women or forthe role which women play in modern society. The alternatives which they do offer smell of greasy bedsheets and dirty bars. As for Bee and Val and their lesbianism-had I been a Black l i s t e n i n g tomyself being compared to a lesbian, I would have walked out. I only hope that in the future Womens Liband Gay Liberation will confine themselves until they' have something more constructive and lessinsulting to offer.

"Nooksacks . . . finally . . . win . . ." The boy pauses, unsure. The next word is long and difficult. "Re . . . rec . . ." Finally he skips it and jumps to the next word. "Tribe!" he pronounces firmly, grinning. The tutor smiles. "That's right and the word you skipped is 'recognition.' The headline reads, 'Nooksacksfinally win recognition as tribe.' Do you know what that means?" The boy nods vigorously. He doesn'tunderstand the word 'recognition,' but he knows that the headline means the government hasacknowledged his people, and that recognition may change his life. He is on Western's only and easilyrecognized ancient bus, heading toward the new Nooksack Indian Center in the town of Deming, off theMount Baker Highway. With him are a dozen other Nooksack children and 25 Fairhaven student tutors.They are part of a tutorial program initiated by the Nooksack Indians and supported both by the tribe and Fairhaven College. Each Saturday the program aids Nooksack children in their schooling and activities. But today, Oct. 23, is different from all previous Saturdays. After 112 years of trying, the Nooksackshave finally been recognized as a tribe by the federal and state governments. The recognition makes thetribe eligible for government aid and for claims made against land that they lost in 1859. But moreimportantly than that, it has given the Nooksacks a new bond and purpose and has made them visible tothe government and public. They exist now as a tribe and their tribal problems and promises can bedealth with. The bus pulls into the Nooksack Center. Children and tutors alike pile out of the bus ontothe first land the Nooksacks have ever owned under state law. The center is an old wooden two storyfisheries building, abandoned by the state and still painted the customary white and green. It was sold tothe Indians for $7,000. The government loaned the money since the tribe had little revenue. The secondfloor of the building serves as a tribal meeting area and as the classroom for the Saturday tutors. Ablackboard holds notices of tribal meetings. Some of the Fairhaven people begin to puzzle out theconstruction of a recently donated swing set, as others and the children troop upstairs to begin themorning's studies and games. More children arrive by car or are picked up at their homes. The morning'sactivities range from spelling and math to tree climbing and- basketball. There are thirty to forty tutors inall and approximately the same number of children. The Nooksacks conceived of the tutoring idea fouryears ago to help their children in the county schools. The Indians knew Don McLeod at Fairhaven, thefaculty advisor for the tutors, and through him, obtained help from Fairhaven students and Westernvolunteers in forming an unlimited pool of potential tutors. Since that time the tutoring has moved from achurch to the present Nooksack Center and has received aid from three directors of the center-Mrs.William Johnson. Mrs. t v * Trees, boats, spiderwebs, or just color, Mickey Roberts and the presentdirector, Mrs. Marguerite Goslin. The area around Deming is beautiful now. The hills are shot through with autumn colors, the Nooksack River flows through green valleys nearby and fog-shrouded forests andmountains climb towards glacial Baker. It is the ancient home of the Nooksacks, stretching for mileseast and west of Deming and north to Canada. But the tribe owns only their center, all other lands having passed into the hands of the White man. They still live there as individuals though, their homes oftensobering. Barking dogs and a curl of smoke from what is often the only source of heat, a wood stove,greet the visitor. The houses themselves are often old, rude and unpainted, with six or more people livingin an area the size of a dorm room. Often there is no toilet, only an outhouse. Some Nooksack homesare better than that-but others are even worse. Since the Nooksacks lost their land rights in the treaty of1859, many have known only poverty. The story of the Nooksack role in that treaty would be comic if not so bitterly true. According to Nooksack Indian Joe Louie, who claims knowledge of Nooksack history,the then territorial government of Washington called all tribes to a meeting in February to discuss treatyrights. But the Nooksacks, living high up near Baker that winter, were so badly snowed in that theycouldn't make it to the meeting. When they came down to the lowlands in the spring, they found theirland signed away and homesteaded out. A Saturday morning Nooksack artist and her Then they foundthemselves trapped in a Catch-22-type of situation: to have their land rights recognized, they had to berecognized as a tribe and to be recognized as a tribe, they had to have land. The Nooksacks broke out of this ring of illogic just recently under a 1935 federal act requiring only that a majority of Indians be infavor of tribal recognition. The Nooksacks so voted in 1935 but it has taken until now for the governmentto acknowledge that vote. And so now they again have claims upon the land they lost so long ago. Back at the Nooksack Center tutors and children paint pictures and accidentally, themselves. Others studyspelling or read books as a tape recorded voice reads with them. Some dabble in math while others justplay. They cavort with tutors, kick and throw balls, and pick apples. They make paper airplanes, boxesand geometric shapes. The tutors learn and enjoy as much as the kids. The children read books ranging from "Chief Seattle" to "Elizabeth's Shopping Spree." They play with Cuisenaire rods and building sets.One Nooksack drew a picture of a woman and provided a door in her stomach. When opened, the doorrevealed a green star and the word iove' scrawled beside it. There is heat in the building now. Athousand dollars from last spring's Hunger Walk and private donations of small heaters have made thatpossible. There is the beginning of a library at the center; many of the books are on Indian history andcustomes. There is a display of Nooksack crafts and plans for a future crafts shop and a second-handclothes store. And there are two tutor examine the day's artwork. Photos by GREG MILLARD hundredancient pairs of skis ami boots left over from World War II, an unused item of federal generosity (perhaps given to insure Nooksack attendance at the next treaty). Few of the Indians ski. In the past all expenses for the tutorial program were met by private donation or scrounging by Fairhaven students, but this yearthe program was granted a budget of $200-enough to pay for the use of Western's bus. The tutors haveaided the Indians in many ways. Families made homeless by fire, floods and high winds have beenhelped by donations from the college. Food, clothing and legal aid to families in need has been gathered.A blood bank has been set up in the Indians' name since many Nooksacks had difficulty in meeting theexprense of blood. And of course children have benefited from the tutoring. The Nooksacks' future islooking brighter, but they are a tribe with many problems. They are also a tribe willing to helpthemselves. The tutoring program could not survive without the support of the Nooksacks and they are apeople willing to learn. The children in this program will one day decide the future place of the Nooksackpeople. The program needs supplies, p a r t i c u l a r ly clothes, educational materials and tools.Anyone interested in helping should contact Don McLeod at Fairhaven. Or one can ask that 10-year-oldNooksack boy what he likes best about the tutoring program. He'll tell you, "Football!" Does anyone have a football? There are many Saturdays left. Numbers and letters-reading, writing and arithmetic.

The books will find vacant shelves in January when the construction should becompleted. Photos By JIM THOMSON January What happened to book WA4-67-38B-JI? It disappearedwith the east wall. Completion dates set for library By CAROLYN HILL Soon construction on the newlibrary building will end and studying in the library will seem like a drag. This month will be the mostannoying, but by Jan. 9 students won't have to cross an undulating plywood bridge or study next to adeafening air hammer. The candy machine and telephone booth will stand in the lobby again and thePetrified Forest Fountain eventually will shower down on the white line in High Street. We squeezethrough 3-foot-wide aisles now, but winter quarter we'll be able to saunter from one end of the building tothe other on each of the five floors. A bit of the super-organized disorder will pass as the floor nameschange from West 1, West 1 A, and West 2 to West 1, West 2, and West 3. Deciphering that the West 3 of the old system is really the fifth floor would be a similar headache to deciding what is up or down inthe VU elevator. At present most of the magazines are hidden away in nooks and crannies but soon1,500 magazines with three or four of their past issues will be on display. "Students . . . have beenextremely patient and I think they deserve to have the library project completed by January." This quarter we appreciate every bit of elbow room at the group tables, but soon we'll be able to take for grantedthose same tables each partitioned into four private carrels. Seating will double and 83,500 square feetwill be added in floor space. Overstuffed chairs and sofas will be added in the corners of each floor. Twosmoking lounges will be provided to accommodate those of us who haven't been able to kick the habit. Alarge recreational reading room will contain the newly arrived books and lounge furniture. Somewhere inthis castle of luxury and self-indulgence will be shelved 300,000 volumes. Some nit-picking intellectualshave wondered why the two wings, styled along Mondrian's straight and narrow lines, so artisticallystuck onto the Gothic edifice in 1962, hit the dust in 1971. The wings were added lo accommodate aprojected enrollment of 6,000. College Architect Bob Aegerter said architects pointed out that theconglomeration would be difficult to remodel, but administrators answered that this would give just onemore reason for limiting enrollment. The officials found it impossible to maintain enrollment levels though. In 196! Western registered 3,100 students and in 1967 passed the 6,000 mark. The new $3,016,947addition can handle an enrollment of 10,000. Students who complain about the present confusion in thelibrary might consider the alternatives. An entirely new building in the area of the Fairhaven and HuxleyColleges would have been the cheapest solution. Mosi students would have been too far from studyareas and source materials, and ii would have taken several years for the academic community toreorient itself. A branch library would K inconvenient and the duplicate services and hours would beexpensive. The Wilson Library is in tin downtown part of the campus. It ma. resemble urban renewal right now but is where the action is. W. Robert Lawyer, library direct. : said, "We have received fewcomplain1 . from students. They have luvii subjected to tremendous pressure in terms of heat, cold andnoise.

Organization important For All-College Senate ByJAMES BATTY After today's election is over, exactly what will happen to the government at Western?What will be its first order of business? What will happen to the faculty and administrative councils, thestaff, the Associated Students? How long will it take for the old government to phase itself out and thenew Senate to completely establish itself as a governing body? Questions such as these areundoubtedly being raised. So I raised a few with Mike Barnhart, administrative assistant to the President. Barnhart says that the senate will have an "immense amount of organizational work to do. This shouldbe brought to mind when Western President Jerry Flora, also president ex-officio of the senate,addresses the body sometime during the middle of this month. Flora is also expected to share histhoughts on the importance and condition of the senate, along with the issues he sees it taking on.There will need to be some understanding of the variety of conditions faced by this academic community. The body will have to choose its chairman, as well as its council and committee members. As wellascertaining just what kinds of organization its councils and committees will need. As far as how theSenate itself will be organized, Barnart expects to hear questions and suggestions from studentsconcerning apportionment of seats among the academic areas. This is all part of a transitional period,during which both governments will be in operation, and during which the divided government will fade and the new united government will assume its full status. How long will this take? Barnhart speculates thatit should take "at least a year." Then, after a year of operation, the Senate can appear before the Board of Trustees for official approval. The administrative councils, the staff, the AS and the faculty councils willno longer be considered official voices, since they are each represented in the body. These separategroups, says Barnhart, are free to lobby before the senate instead of before the President. Flora will notrecognize them as groups anymore. Barnhart said, "They are going to have to have the attention of thesenate." He says that it should be interesting to see which groups go out of existence and which remainas independent caucus organizations. Ideas always look different on the drawing board, and when thenew constitution becomes a working reality unforeseen problems are bound to arise. Some of these mayeven require constitutional amendments. A two-thirds vote of the Senate can amend the currentconstitution. Barnhart urges, however, that the "use of amendment by the senate must be closelyconsidered" because it took great thought and much time to put the constitution into being. Amendments "can never be taken lightly." In short, the sooner the new senate realizes its capabilities, the soonerBarnhart believes that it will be able to take over its total responsibility. Before it makes its move, "thesenate will have to look at the whole committee structure of this institution." This will be the beginning.Minority unions to be discussed in workshop A racism workshop, sponsored by the Black StudentUnion, the Asian Student Union, MECHA. and the American Indian Student Union will be held Nov. 9-12. The purpose of the workshop is to inform the campus community of the workings of the Unions, theirdirections and goals, according to the workshop sponsors. "To my knowledge, this is the first time thatminority groups have come together on campus," Allen Stowers, a BSU spokesman said. The focus willbe on the following themes: â€”institutional racism â€”prison reform, and â€” the role the coalition ofunions and students can play in the restructuring of racist attitudes and practices. The workshop willinclude speakers, films and seminars. Speakers scheduled to attend are: â€”Hank Adams, editor of thenewspaper Renegade and Puyallup fishing rights advocate, â€”'Langstol Tabor who works with halfwayhouses in Seattle, â€”Lupe Gamboa who is a union organizer of the hop workers in the Yakima Valley,â€”Larry Flores director of the cultural center at the University of Washington and â€”Armando Mendoza,who works in the office of minority affairs also at the UW. College committee to review GeneralEducation program and inflexible in for all students, backgrounds or 676-0770 By CAROLYN HILL TheGeneral Education Committee has been directed to examine, critize and reform the general educationprogram. A lot of ink and paper could be saved by re-distributing the report of the 1967 Committee onLiberal Education (COLE). Recent committees, sub-committees and councils have raised identicalcomplaints. In 1967 COLE listed these criticisms of the general education program: â€”Most seriously, it is rigid perscribing the same studies regardless of their individual abilities. -Because it is a lower-division, and particularly a freshman, program and represents a large number of fields, it is shallow, low-level and over-extended. Some of its components, such as humanities, are too large. Some are mass-lecture jobs. Some courses deal in details rather than principles and large issues, and so don't help thenon-major. â€”Too many of its instructors are junior and ill prepared or called upon to teach areas outside of theri competence. â€”It contains too few interdepartmental courses. Some areas, such as thesciences, have no true organization at all. Students are dissatisfied with the present program.Professors of large lecture sessions often see their entire classes only on the first and final class days.Stan Cuykendall, AS academic coordinatio, has collected these complaints from faculty and students:â€”There is no "focus"â€”nothing to tie the scattered courses of general education together. We use theshotgun approach, hoping that at least one,class will.hit hpnie to.the student,,but,few do. -Students areoffered only two choices, a "bonehead" 101 course (Option I) or a better course with twice as manycredits (Option II). A science major can't afford to take the complete social sciences Option II but isbored by the simplicity of Option I. -Students don't have enough choices. There should be a largernumber of classes offered in each area. -The present general education program doesn't allow enoughroom for independent thought, discussions or questions. A survey of faculty opinions of the curriculumcommission last year showed that 162 faculty members believed a large scale revision of the generalstudies program was necessary. Only 91 members were satisfied with the present program. RoscoeBuckland, the director of the General Studies Department, agrees the program needs examination. Hesaid not only the courses but also the mechanics of the program, such as the number of credits of eachcourse, should be studied. Provost Frederick Sargent II would like to see the program "loosen up. Nowit's like a cafeteria. The student is presented with a large group of professors, each telling him about theirown departments. What we need is a smaller group of people who really understand inter-disciplinarythinking," he said. . Tim Douglas, assistant dean of students, believes that a general education shouldgive basic skills in communicating ideas and in solving social and world problems. Its students should be able to cope with new knowledge, he said. Cuykendall urges any student with complaints or proposalsto give them either to him or to the chairman of the general education committee, Henry Adams of thepsychology department. ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 2 - Page 9 ---------- Tuesday, November 2, 1971 Western Front 9 Campus briefs New bike racks Bicyclists may now use the new bike racks and abandon the trees to the dogs. Bike parking, long a problem on Western's campus,reached critical proportions this quarter due to more student cyclists. New concrete and steel bike racksare located east of Miller Hall, west of Bond Hall, west of Haggard Hall, north of the Viking Commons,Fairhaven, Mathes turnaround, Higginson Hall and Highland Hall. More units have been ordered toaugment the 400 already in place. The racks, built by the Physical Plant, cost $4.85 per unit. Themoney comes from the capital improvements budget. Blood drive The Western Program Commission issponsoring a blood drive tomorrow, with Western students given first priority for blood collected.Students interested in donating blood are asked to come to VU 008 between 10 a.m. and noon. If astudent desires to donate blood to a specific individual or cause, he may do so. Cookies and punch,donated by Saga, will be served. Teacher scholarship Applications are now being' accepted for theBarbara Schear Johnson Memorial Scholarship. It is available to any Western student majoring in English "and planning to become an elementary school teacher. The amount available is $360 which will bedeposited with the college and paid to the recipient in two equal installments, one winter quarter and onespring quarter. To apply for the scholarship you must show financial need, complete the application formavailable in the Financial Aid Office and prepare a short statement regarding your feelings concerningteaching. The completed application must be returned to the Financial Aids Office no later than noonWednesday, Nov. 24. WashPIRG to petition The statewide public information research group on campus (WashPIRG) will be initiating a petition drive beginning Nov. 10, to solicit student approval of a plan to add $1 per quarter or $1.50 per semester to student fees. The addition of the dollar would go towardincorporating student research and energy into an organization whose goals revolve around consumer and environmental protection. Should more than 50 per cent of the total student body sign the petitions, thenames would be submitted to the Board of Trustees for its approval. According to Mike Fairshter,chairman of the publicity steering committee for WashPIRG, a rebate system would be put into effectshould the student body not wish to pay the fee WashPIRG, should it be accepted by students andadministrators, would emphasize the responsibility of students as citizens. It would be a student-fundedand student-controlled research group employing a full staff of off-campus professionals, includingengineers, physical and social scientists and lawyers, who would provide coordination between studentsand the community. Only fish in dorms If you live in a dorm, you can keep your goldfish, but your goldfinch has got to go. Gerald Brock, director of housing said, "With the exception ot small fish, pets are not permitted in the dorms." Reasons given for this are that the pets may be carrying fleas, disease orcause allergic reactions in some people. A student with a pet in a dorm is served with a notice, directinghim to get rid of the animal. If the animal isn't removed, then the owner is subject to eviction. There mayalso be a charge for fumigation if the animal leaves a mess. Gay Alliance meeting The Gay Peoples'Alliance is holding its third meeting of the quarter tonight at 7:30 in VU 362. The meeting is open to allinterested students. The topics of discussion will revolve around how gay men feel toward gay womenand vice versa. For further information call the Sex Information Office.

Two productions will be presented: "The Red Horse Animation" and "Play" by Samuel Beckett. In "The Red Horse Animation" the three performerscombine to form an image of a red horse. They work, move and improvise its history and psychology.Structurally they are a choral. Their voice is narrative and the play's continuity is cinematic. The work ofMabou Mines began in Paris in 1967 with a production of Samuel Beckett's "Play." The group is nowtouring the West Coast for the first time. Their appearance at Western is being sponsored by the Viking Union Art Gallery Committee. According to Bruce Zierow of the committee, seating will be limited toapproximately one hundred persons for each of the two performances. Tickets will be available startingtomorrow at the VU information desk. Students, faculty and staff can get in free and general admissionis $ 1. Photo exhibit Former Western Front and Klipsun photo editor Loren Bliss, a junior sociologymajor, will be exhibiting 25 of his black and white photographs in the VU Gallery this week. A c c o r d in g to Bliss, three-fourths of the photographs were taken in the Northeast, while one-fourth were made in the Northwest. "The photographs are basiclly about people in different situations, but most have fairlydefinitive political overtones. Some were made as a protest against the way people live, and include astatement of the'absurdity of things, " he said. Bliss, 3 1, spent five years as a photographer in NewYork, has worked as a free-lance photographer and is presently associated with the FairhavenCommunications Company.

Astudent at Huxley is advised to choose an area of concentration on environment within a broader fieldsuch as sociology or biology. Concentrations offered by Huxley are: Ecological Systems Analysis;Environmental Control; Environmental Planning; Hunger, Food, and Malnutrition; Marine Resources andPopular Dynamics. A Huxley student must fulfill Western's degree requirements while also completing 96 credits from Huxley. Independent study is stressed within Huxley, which also offers HuxleyEnvironmental Reference Bureau (HERB), a student run organization. HERB's purpose is to helpcommunicate the purpose of Huxley and the need for such an environmental organization within thecommunity.

Vehicles inthe pool cannot be used by just anybody. Members of the administration and academic departments canuse the cars. Students signing for a car must be college employes and have their department chairman's or administrator's permission. A state-vehicle operator identification card is required. The driver can getone by taking the state patrol's defensive driving course, held once per quarter on campus. Because ofstate regulations, a driver for the 36-passenger bus must be supplied by the motor pool. Dave Kincaid,who oversees operations of the motor pool, said that there is some problem in scheduling because people often expect that they can call and get a vehicle for the next day. He urged people to reserve the vehiclethey want as soon as possible. Reservations already are being made for late November and December.The motor pool, located in the physical plant, contains 8 sedans, 3 station wagons, a 12-passenger vanand a 36-passenger bus. "The cars are pretty much gone all the time," Kincaid said. "We try todiscourage trips under 50 miles." Travel is limited to Washington, Oregon, Idaho and British Columbia.With some cars being used by three different drivers a day, there is a surprising absence of seriousaccidents, he said. "It's really remarkable that we don't have more accidents. Last year, we only had twoof any consequence at all," Kincaid said. The cars are insured by the state but only for collisioninsurance. Because the motor pool is a self-sustaining fund and pays for itself, rent is charged. Therental charge is $2.75 per day, with 5 cents a mile. The bus costs $15, plus the driver's pay. The cars areequipped with credit cards should.an emergency arise. The cars are serviced frequently by the motorpool's own mechanic. If a person cannot get the vehicle he needs, he can take his own vehicle and bereimbursed. The motor pool also has a group of other vehicles, such as pickups, scooters, jeeps anddump trucks, but these are not for general use. They are assigned to specific departments or areas, suchas the bookstore, the biology department or Fairhaven. They are mainly used for construction andmaintenance and also are serviced at the physical plant. Kincaid said there is a problem of not havingenough vehicles for the demand. Other difficulties include people not getting cars back on time andpeople using cars to transport family and friends (the state patrol will stop them). Eight sedans, threestation wagons, a 15-passenger van and a 36-passenger bus make up Western's motorpool located in the physical plant. These vehicles can be rented. Fairhaven News By BILL DIETRICH 1984 Fairhaven'scanine supporters and opponents are still at it. Dog haters are making threats that they are findingdifficult to carry out as there is only one dog catcher for all of Bellingham Dog lovers called a meetingthat gained a peak attendance of 35 or so canine concerned s t u d e n t s last Thursday. Argumentssputtered for an hour. Only one dog attended, but whether she was a symbol born of freedom or ofcanine crime was not known. The dog concerned itself with her fleas and made no comments during the meeting. Since last spring, such animals are supposedly not allowed at Fairhaven. Dog crimes werecited, such as trampling or chewing the landscaping, fertilizing the hallways, or howling at night. Evencats came under fire. But dog lovers fought back. ' ' Y o u ' r e p u n i s h i ng well-behaved dogs if youthrow them all out," a mutt champion declared. "My dog would blow up before he'd let go." "My dog was the same way," replied another. "But he got diarrhea once-and was a Great Dane." "Well, we can'thave paradise," it had been pointed out earlier. Dog lovers finally decided to take the matter to theFairhaven policy board today. ****** If we're going to mention the Dirty Fokkers, we really should goalong with Women's Lib and talk about Fairhaven's own, Mama Anne's girls. They've lost three out ofthree of their intramural volleyball matches. But they "expect to do better." Especially at night. MamaAnne readily explains the team losses as due to overwork. "With working hours till seven in the morning . . . we need more of that blood and guts spirit . . . we need the old softball trick . . . and moresupport." There will be no more games this week. **** Sorry about that Al: You're only doing a costanalysis of recycling, you're not starting a new garbage dump.

Proposed "computer-tracker' to monitor criminals ByROBERT BARKAN (After receiving a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, he was a member of the technical staff at Bell Telephone Laboratores and a senior engineer at theElectronic Defense Laboratories of Sylvania Electronic Systems. Currently, he is a member of PacificStudies Center and is researching the use of technology by the police and the military.) Washington(PNS)-1984 may arrive ahead of schedule: While Army intelligence agents have been quietly amassingextensive files on dissidents, scientists have even more quietly been developing the technology that willenable a computer to control "criminal" actions and emotions. 1984 is still fiction, but no longer sciencefiction. The technology of the police state is ready. All that remains is. for the government to implementit. The first covert step in that direction may have already been taken. In the January issue ofTransactions on Aerospace and Electronic Systems, engineer Joseph Meyer proposed attachingminiature electronic tracking devices to twenty million Americans. These "transponders" would be linkedby radio to a computer which would monitor the wearers' locations and implement curfew and territorialrestrictions. Meyer, a 42-year-old computer specialist, has spent his last 17 years working for theDepartment of Defense. Yet the Pentagon has made no public statement concerning his proposal.Interestingly, Meyer neglected in his article to name the particular Defense Department agency he worksfor, and he gave his home rather than his business address, an uncommon practice in technicaljournals. Reached by phone in their suburban home, Meyer's wife .nervously refused to divulge Meyer'stelephone number at work, insisting that he could be reached only at home, smsmm early in themorning. The next day, Meyer laconically refused to name which agency of the Defense Department heworks for, but a check with the switchboard operator at the National Security Agency found an extension for him there. Meyer's reticence in naming the National Security Agency is understandable. (Some NSA employees privately claim that NSA stands for "Never Say Anything.") The NSA is the most secretive of the dozen or so agencies that make up the American intelligence community. Established in 1952 by astill-classified presidential directive, the agency has remained shrouded in secrecy. The NSA has morepersonnel and larger facilities than the Central Intelligence Agency, and twice its budget, yet whilevolumes have been written about the operations of the CIA, very little has been discovered or disclosedabout the NSA. The transponders, proposed by Meyer would be attached to the "subscribers" as acondition of bail or parole. Each subscriber would be identified by a code transmitted several times aminute to a computer via a network of transceivers deployed around, town like police call-boxes. Thecomputer would record the subscriber's location and compare it with his "normal schedule," checking forany "territorial or curfew restrictions." If the subscriber was out of line, the computer would instruct thetransponder to "warn" the subscriber of his violation. The transponders would be "attached" tosubscribers in such a way that they couldn't be removed without the computer knowing it. Tamperingwith or discarding transponders would be a felony, and a subscriber who did so would be forced intohiking "everywhere he goes," sought by the FBI. Meyer wants the transponders assigned on a "fairlylong-term basis," so that the subscriber will "acquire long experience in not committing crimes." Thescheme's purpose, says Meyer, is to "constrain criminals and arrestees into behaving like law-abidingcitizens," but in practice the computer-and its human programmer-would control the everyday activitiesof the people plugged into it. Most of the subscribers, Meyer believes, will do ordinary things like get upin the morning and go to work. At night they will "stay close to home, to avoid being implicated incrimes." At work a "human surveillance system" will keep them under control. Estimating that thenumber of transceivers needed for surveillance in a large city would be about the same as the number ofpolicemen, Meyer has all the details worked out. In Harlem, for example, the transceivers would bestrung at one block intervals "along 110th Street, 114th, 118th, etc., from 8th Avenue to the river." North-south strings of transceivers would be installed "on 8th Avenue, and several main streets to the east."Only about 250 transceivers would be "capable of monitoring the whole region on the street-by-streetbasis." Like every good engineer, Meyer covers all the "system parameters" in his proposal-including itssocial implications. If laws, police, prosecutors, courts, prisons, news media, and the "society at large"were perfect, he says, then his scheme could be approved on the basis of its "efficiency." But he admits that criminal acts are frequently a response to "the social and economic system." Most people arrested are poor, members of minority groups, or "products of deplorable circumstances." The Pentagonengineer nonetheless comes out predictably on the side of law and order. The basic problem inpreventing the poor and the black from committing the "criminal acts" with which they respond to thesystem and their deplorable circumstances is to "persuade or condition" them to "play the ratherarbitrary u" social system." This can be done, says Meyer, "by providing costs for misbehavior andpayoffs for compliance." But the costs are much clearer than the payoffs-"attaching transponders toarrestees and criminals will put them into an electric surveillance system that will make it very difficult for them to commit crimes, or even to violate territorial and curfew restrictions, without immediateapprehension." Joseph Meyer recognizes that his transponder surveillance system could lead to a"police state," but "the same could be said about police, jails, courts, laws, taxes, and so on."Transponders, he thinks, will help the government protect itself from the people. For example, they mightbe used as "punitive devices" against political "criminals," that is, "for arrests following riots orconfrontations." If the system is successful, Meyer proposed that plans be made for monitoring "aliensand political subgroups." Meanwhile Meyer worries that his system will not work. "To evade the street-surveillance system," he fears, "tunnels could be dug under the streets or movement through the sewersystem could be tried." Worse yet, there might be "massive destruction" of transponders in "mutiniesand large-scale confrontations." "An outright revolt by 25 million arrestees and criminals," Meyer warns,"would be troublesome." Personalized electronic surveillance for one tenth of America, estimates Meyer, would cost about S2 billion a year. In order to minimize the cost to those who, through successful social conditioning, have achieved their medial level of affluence- the taxpayers-Meyer believes that the"obvious" way to pay for the transponders is to "lease them to the subscribers at a low cost, say five j r . week." ---------- Western Front - 1971 November 2 - Page 11 ---------- Tuesday, November 2, 1971 Western Front 11 Evco warm-up Harriers romp past Lutes Warming up forthe Evergreen Conference meet, Western's cross country team buried Pacific Lutheran University, 20-42, (low score winning) in Tacoma, Saturday. Spotting PLU first place, Western runners took the nextseven places on PLU's hilly, five mile home course at Fort Steilacoom. Winning time was turned in byPLU's Kevin Knapp, who ran a quick 26:05. Following Knapp in the scoring were five Vik runners: 2,Russ Fuller, 26:12; 3, Steve Lippitt; 4, Tim Tubbs; 5, Paul Scovel; and 6, Mike Shaw. The Viking scorers finished in The Sporting Word And it's all Western's too â€” . By KENT SHERWOOD _ ^ Sports Editor - It's all over. All of the waiting, wondering, hoping, figuring and cheering is over. Western has won theEvergreen Conference football championship all by themselves, at last. It is Western's first ever outrighttitle since the league was born in 1948. Thrice the Vikings have tied for the crown, in '51 with PacificLutheran and Puget Sound; in '58 with Central and in '69 with Eastern. The clinching of the flag cameSaturday night with a 21-8 win over Eastern Oregon. The game was not exactly a picture of grace andexpertise? it was the 50-7 rout of Eastern Washington. In fact, if it hadn't been for the title factor, Vikcoach Boyde Long might well be slightly displeased with phases of the Blue's performance on a muddy-Civic Stadium Field. But it wasn't really that poor of a performance. The game, fittingly, was the finalhome appearance of the season for Western and Long named his 10 seniors as co-captains.Quarterback Glenn Hadland said farewell to Bellingham with one of his best performances. Hadland,holder of nearly every passing and total offense mark at Western, passed for 155 yards and twotouchdowns and ran the option play for an additional 51 yards on the ground. Tom Wigg again broke the100 yard marker with 102 net yards in 23 carries. A stout defense refused to yield points on opportunitiesset up by offensive mistakes. Not until there was 1:07 left in the game did the Mounties cross the goalline. So that leaves the Viks with a 5-0 mark in Evco and 5-2 overall. Except for a couple of excursions to Tacoma, Western might have an unblemished record. Losses to Pacific Lutheran (15-7) and PugetSound (33-21) were really games in which the Viks had a bigger hand in beating themselves than didtheir opponents. Highlights so far would have to be a 23-15 win over Central in Ellensburg and the Eastern Washington massacre. Western was fortunate to have played Oregon College in this year's first game,as the Wolves have been steadily improving since dropping a 21-7 decision to the Big Blue. But thematter of a champion has been decided. It's Western, and make no mistake about it. Sure, they still havethree games left on the schedule, but only one is a conference contest, and the foe, Oregon Tech hasn'twon in over two years. The OTI game will be followed by games with Whitworth and Simon Fraser, and ifthe Vikings thought that they were cold in Bellingham these last two weeks, they haven't felt anything yet. Tech is located in Klamath Falls and the Owls lost their sixth game of the season Saturday in a drivingsnow storm. Spokane and Vancouver, B.C. in mid-November are not exactly comparable to Miami either. Western can end the year with a record anywhere from 8-2 to 5-5. But whatever the final mark the Vikswill be the new, proud owners of the Evco championship. The only owners, all by their little lonesomes.And that's the best way to have it. a span of 36 seconds, forming an unbeatable phalanx of Westernrunners. Other Viks finishing were: 7, Bill Rathvon; 8, Cliff Chaffee; 10, Andy Herstrom; 11, RichRathvon; 13, Fred New; 18, Bruce Carrick; and 19 Bruce Blizzard. Looking forward to the Evco crosscountry championships, next Saturday, Coach Dick Bowman said that while Eastern has a powerfulteam, and Southern Oregon College harbors some strong individual runners, his team hoped to surprisesome schools. At the Evco meet, held at Eastern Washington College, in Cheney, Bowman is lookingfor an outstanding performance from freshman Russ Fuller, who has moved up from an also-ran to oneof Western's top runners. Tim Tubbs, who sprained his ankle running in the Western WashingtonInvitational, Oct. 23, was back to near full speed Saturday. Ruggers pull 18-6 win out of mud TheWestern Rugby Club first team grabbed its ninth consecutive victory last Saturday when they defeatedthe Kats of Vancouver, 18-6. The Kats, like Western, were . undefeated in league play going into thismatch. The game "was played on a muddy Viking field, making ball control an important factor in thegame, allowing little explosive running by the backs. Most of the time, the ball was dribbled on theground or handed off by means of short passes. It was a scrummers game, and the Viks showed theirpower as they pushed the outclassed Kats all over the field. Neither backfield was overpowering, but the Vikings seemed to get the ball in the tight situations. Western scores came on tries by Craig Stoner,Bob Nygren, and Jeff Lombard. Shortly after his try, Lombard was forced to leave the game with astrained shoulder. Gerry Hensen made all three conversion attempts giving the Viks an 18-0 halftimelead. B-G gals win In a powder puff football game Thursday, Beta Gamma beat Kappa 12-0. BetaGamma's scores came on runs of five and 43 yards by Martha Hale/ Kappa's only sustained drivebogged down just inside the Beta Gamma 20 yard line. Kappa will be looking for its first win when itplays Mathes Thursday. Beta Gamma, undefeated and unscored on has not scheduled any opponents.Other dorms planning teams are Sigma, Delta, and Alpha. Vik booters win twice Western's soccer clubrallied twice to top two Tacoma teams last weekend, edging the University of Puget Sound (UPS), 4-3 onSaturday before blanking Pacific Lutheran University (PLU), 2-0 on Sunday. The Western-UPS gameproved to be a see-saw contest with the Viks finally gaining the upper hand with just 30 seconds left. Joe Peterson scored the winning goal for Western, when he trapped a Hector Perazo pass, dribbled by twoLogger defenders and then blasted the ball by the opposing goalie. Earlier Perazo had tied up the gameat 3-3 on a penalty kick with four minutes remaining in the contest. Dave Asher and Rod Bolinski got the Vikings' other goals. The win avenged a 3-2 loss to the Loggers two weeks ago in Bellingham, the onlyloss Western has suffered this season. Against PLU, the Viks found an aroused Lute team that heldWestern scoreless throughout the first half and most of the second half. Peterson finally broke thescorelessness when he scored his third goal of the season with just five minutes remaining in the game.Perazo then added the clincher moments later. The two wins upped the Vikings' Western SoccerConference record to 6-1-1 and gives Western 13 points. GET LEARN HIGH!

The victory gave the Vikings a 5-0 ledger in Evco, providing a two gamelead over EOC with only one more conference game left for both squads. Western -was able to cinchtheir first clean flag (the Viks tied Eastern Washington for the title in 1969) when Saturday's win wascoupled by Oregon College downing Eastern Washington, 28-16. Hadland operated the Big Blue offense with deadly skill, running the option play to near perfection and completeing seven of 11 passes for 155yards and two touchdowns.

Wigg also scored atouchdown to add to another Evco leading category. The first quarter started off with little action andseeing both teams punt backnd forth to each other. The Viks started their first scoring drive late in theopening period. Using Wigg as a pile driver, Western ripped EOC's line with occasional outsidediversions by sophomore Steve Skogmo. On the first play of the second quarter, Hadland attempted hissecond pass of the game and found Steve Jasmer with absolutely nobody near him for a 23-yardtouchdown pass. Lance Wilson's kick capped a 77-yard drive in nine plays and the Viks led 7-0.Western's defense rose to the occasion and prevented the Mountaineers from tying it up after Easternrecovered a Hadland fumble on the Vik 10-yard line. The Mounties drove to the three on two runs byDwight Toyama and a Bob Johnson pass when Johnson underthrew his receiver on a fourth and goalplay. Western turned it around and marched 93 yards in 12 plays for its second score of the evening.Hadland kept on the option on five of those plays while the big down was a 37-yard pass from Hadland to Dean Lewis to the EOC 33. With 1:23 left in the half Wigg plunged over from the one and Wilson madeit 14-0. The Mounties opened the second half with renewed vigor and drove to the Vik five where anillegal procedure penalty put them on the 10. Johnson then lofted an aerial into the end zone where it fellinto the waiting arms of Western d e f e n s i v e - back Kevin Halliburton. After a couple of exchanges,Mountie punter Max Goin put the pigskin on the Vik one where Western began its final touchdown drive.A pass to Jasmer and an EOC personal foul call put the Vikings on their way and with 12:41 left in thegame, Hadland found Jasmer again for a nine yard TD strike to cap a 99-yard drive which took 13 plays. EOC finally crossed the goal line with 1:07 left in the contest when Johnson completed one of his 16passes in 36 attempts to Jim Thunnel for 34 yards and six points. Western's defense held JohnHuntsman to only 51 yards rushing. Huntsman entered the game second to Wigg in Evco groundgaining. Western coach Boyde Long named ten co-captains for the EOC tilt.

FRONT LINES: Views of AS Candidates pp. 2-3Migrant Workers: Forgotten Americans pp. 6-7 ---------- Western Front - 1970 November 3 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Tuesday, November 3, 1970 AS Presidential Candidates Bert Halprin 1. I supported thestrike and worked very hard to see it result in something constructive. I presented a bill to the ASlegislature calling on the administration to permit those people wishing to engage in strike activities suchas the community relations council to do so without academic harm. I was involved in the negotiationswith faculty and administration which led to credit being given for special "strike classes." This officialrecognition that non-classroom work, especially attempts to relate student concerns to the community,is a valid educational alternative to classroom study was a significant accomplishment. Steve CooperQuestion 1: Did you support the student strike last year, and what in your estimation were its effects? 1.I supported the strike and the right of students to strike. It would be incongruous, both to my platform and personal feeling,to have done otherwise. The strike was temporarily successful because, one, theinstitution remained open yet the issues were discussed with no violence; secondly, the communityinteraction accompanied with the commitment of our student body . to interact was impressive. Theeffects of our openly showing displeasure, while encouraging, were unsatisfactory because the majority of vocal criticism waned, thus needed pressure on governmental officials stopped. Silence, unfortunately,has always been interpreted as approval. Les Savitch 1. On Monday, May 4, I voiced my emphaticapproval for a class strike against the war during an AS cabinet meeting. The following day after meetingwith Dr. Flora, Western's .deans, and the executive committee of faculty council I became a member ofthe strike's central coordinating and planning committee. My main concern was that the academiccommunity of Western deal with the Kent State-Cambodia-Jackson State turmoil within an educationalatmosphere. By not insisting upon closing the college, much invaluable learning would have not beenable to be attained. Our common horror over the Kent State shootings brought a transitory unification ofthe entire community. At the same time, those students and faculty who preferred not to participate instrike activities were allowed the option to attend their regular classes. 2. Student government mustbreak down the barriers that exist between it and the student body-barriers of secrecy and elitism-to truly serve the students. I have strongly favored, and worked for, such reform. Last winter, a drasticconstitutional revision, which moved control of $130,000 of student fee money from elected officials toappointed ones (whose appointments were not made on the basis of any qualifications), took place out of sight, without most students ever knowing about it. This was permitted by a loophole in the ASconstitution. I promise to see that loophole plugged. Question 2: Does student government need reform?Explain. 2. It seems believable that with the budget of 180 to 200,000 dollars and the bureaucraticnetwork of the Student Government and VU offices, that with the PROPER COMMITTED LEADERSHIPwe could solve, once and for all, the smaller and bothersome issues that we have been continuallyconfronted with for years, and to move this campus immediately to confront the more current andfundamental issues as mentioned in question 4. It's time to stop having a "governing student's"government and have students governing government. 2. Student government sorely needs reform. Despite seemingly limitless reserves of energy and idealism, the Associated Students is ineffectual and unableto sustain any significant degree of support. The government is neither recognized as a viable unit in all-college decision-making nor is it really supported by the students. This is witnessed by poor voterturnouts and lack of continuous involvement. But I do not believe that these problems areinsurmountable- Strong problem-solving, goal-oriented leadership can quell to a great extent inadequaciessuch as lack of direction, inability to follow through on a project from beginning to end, and the inability to retain workers.- 3. The largest number of drug sales on campus are currently made in the coffee shop(where large quantities of caffein reportedly change hands) followed by the smoke shop (headquarters forthe national nicotine mob). I favor expansion of drug sales on campus through establishment of the ASPub. Were sales of hard narcotics prevalent on campus, it would be a major problem and I would dealwith it. Luckily, we do not now face this problem, despite what some say. Of much more concern tostudents is the difficulty in getting drugs (or a doctor's care) through the Health Center. 4. While thereare many extremely important areas of student government concern-such as expansion of existingservices like housing commission, legal aid, sex information and introduction of new ones like free day-care, pressing for meaningful student participation in the college's decision making, and serving asspokesman for the students' interests-one thing clearly must be the number one priority: IF WE DO NOT SOLVE THE PRESENT CRISIS WESTERN FACES, THE REST MAY NOT MATTER. Just two weeksago, President Flora went before an all-college forum to warn us that the present financial crisis mayreduce all of Western to the level of mediocrity. If ajl that is available to students at this college is amediocre education, it won't matter where they have to park to get it. The fall to mediocrity is notinevitable however. The Associated Students government must join with President Flora, as he hasrequested, in seeking solutions to this crisis. The broad experience I have accumulated covering allaspects of student government, as well as working with faculty, administration, and staff, will, I believe,enable me to join in finding the solutions. I would like to take the remaining few words allotted to me tothank the many people whose encouragement and support has been so valuable to me in these past fewweeks, and most especially outgoing AS President Greg Baker and Joe McCcmkey, speaker pfLegislature. ,. Question 3: As AS president, will you be pushing for stronger drug legislation on campus? 3. No, as AS president, the areas I could be effective in, and results I will be trying to obtain, make thequestion of drug legislation on campus irrelevant to an AS president's role. I feel however, that the lawscurrently on drugs are unfair, hypocritical and outdated. I would like to see Western's ASB try toimplement a change in the state and national level by lobbying, seminars for the public, etc. This type ofrole is consistent with the AS president's responsibility, and most reflective of the student body'sfeelings. 3. Because Western is a relative sanctuary insofar as the campus is insulated from outsidelegal authorities, then drug abuse would appear to be an internal affair. At several campuses includingRutgers University, drug sales became so pronounced that the student unions had to close to non-students. They had been ineffective in restricting drug sales to the point where muggings and shakedowns were daily occurrences. If we are to prevent this, yet protect the student body from unnecessaryhassle from outside authorities, students must work together through legislation to restrict traffic in "hard" and dangerous drugs both on campus and in the Bellingham community. Question 4: What is yourplatform? 4. Ten years ago this campus was confronted with issues such as: bookstore prices, parkingproblems, drinking in the dorms, more personal freedom for dorm students, a new constitution, growth ofWestern, lack of student government relevance, Saga food service, housing costs and student wages.Through the lack of commitment by administration and governmental structures, the lack of leadership by our student government and an attitude within student government of just playing around with yourmoney and your education, these issues have remained unsolved. Along with these less important, yetbothersome issues, are fundamental problems that also must be confronted: such as student structuredconcentrations, designing and modernizing one's field of study; suspension of constitutional rights whileon campus. (Students find it hard to vote in Bellingham elections; search and seizure laws guaranteed inthe Bill of Rights are non-existent in the dorms. This is a mockery of students rights as citizens by locallaw enforcement officials.) Institutional commitment toward off-campus housing; meaningful studentrepresentation on significant campus decision-making bodies ranging from faculty hiring to curriculum toallocation of monies for campus use; student participation in state and national issues (as Cambodia,Ref. 20, Int, 256, draft); creating a student, faculty, administration partnership to provide off-campus jobopportunities for credit for students who want and deserve more than a traditional education; academicreform, dropping the minor concentration, and adding a liberal arts degree, etc. 4. Before the AssociatedStudents can function as a realistic unit of all-campus decision-making, the problems mentioned inquestion two must be alleviated. I plan to do so by ensuring that the Associated Students activities bepublicized to ensure that at least the electorate is informed. This would be done by recruiting a presssecretary who writes for the Western Front. Next, a feedback mechanism is essential in order for theAssociated Students to continue adapting and correcting its direction. This I plan to facilitate with an"open door" policy and with (for on-campus residents) a Presidents Council comprised of the presidentsof the various dormitories. BOOKSTORE REBATE. I plan to pass at the next bookstore board meeting a bookstore rebate. This entails a process by which a percentage of the profits shall be returned to thestudent at the end of each year based upon his sales receipts. All the technicalities of this system willbe explained in the next issue of the Front. SAVAFI PLAN. I believe that we must continue to offer thebest possible education to all those students satisfying entrance requirements. The Savafi planaccommodates 1,000 more students for next fall without increasing state matching funds. It involvesturning WWSC into an evening school, thus utilizing presently unused space and facilities. It meansalleviating to a great extent the day-time parking problem. CO-OP GROCERY. In two years the Co-opbookstore will move from its present position to the new student activities center. The present facility,could be used to break the economic strangle-hold that local merchants have on off-campus students. Adetailed AS cost analysis of expanding into the grocery area will be performed. ---------- Western Front - 1970 November 3 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, November 3, 1970 Western Front AS Vice-Presidential Candidates Question 1: Did you support the student strike last year, and what in your estimation, were its effects? 1. I supported the WWSC'sstrike last year, but I could not state that I support the strike that occurred on all college campuses.With the experience acquired at the National Student Congress in San Jose, I became a member of theStrike Co-ordinating Committee, w h i c h i n c l u d e d f a c u l t y, administration and students. Thiscommittee emphasized non-violence and non-closure. The strike actually was not a strike, it was simply the educational institution diverting its attention away from the three r's and concentrating on anacademic approach to Vietnam, Jackson, and Kent State! The effects of the strike were many, thoughthe intended effect may never have been accomplished. Gary Sharp i Question 2: What is your platform? 2. My platform or rather my goal is not to continue to progress but to begin to pragress on Western'scampus. I intend to organize a President's Council which would include all dorm presidents and the ASpresident. This council would supplement the legislature as an unofficial policy board until constitutionalreform can guarantee every constituency of representation which is not the case with the at-largelegislators. An economic investigation shall be conducted to determine the feasibility of a co-op grocerystore and its most effective location. The bookstore is an area that will continue to acquire attention!Reform must be made from the accounting system through the marketing approach and finalizing itselfin the proposed rebate plan, The Savitch plan. 1. Four students dead, two students dead, hundreds ofthousands dead and you have to ask "Did you support the Strike . . . ." You're damned right I did. Whatof the parents of the slain students, what of the parents of the dead GIs in Vietnam, what of the dead. Ishall mourn with them, I shall mourn for them. I shall mourn. If all was of any good I cannot speak. Myheart tells me YES, but my mind creates frustration. The WAR still goes on! The KILLING still goes on!My heart is still in sorrow, my mind is still confused, and the anger is still there. PEACE 2.'Priorities: 1. Insuring the quality of our education. 2. Students should have voting representation at all decisionmaking levels on the campus. 3. Convince the students at Western that CHANGE is possible in theinstitution. 4. Convince the students at Western that the institution exists for them. 5. Student Bill ofRights. 6. Student money should be spent by student representatives. FOOTNOTE: Not forgetting thatwe live a campus life and there is a big world out there with BIG BIG PROBLEMS. Gary Evans ASLegislative Candidates Question: What is your platform? Gerald Apple The AS Legislature needs tosolve several major problems. First, the constitution needs to be rewritten. Second, the AS Legislaturemembership should be expanded, by having a certain number of representatives from the dorms, off-campus, different departments and clubs. Finally, the students should be represented better in theAcademic Council which controls 60 per cent of the budget. A better system should be developed inallotting different clubs more money. Doug Baker Last week President Flora said to me that in the entirehistory of this college, we have never been confronted with a problem as that of our current financialcrisis. These problems at hand are long range but immediate solutions are needed. WE MUST FIND ANANSWER. President Flora also called for the most qualified student legislature in history to devotemaximum effort to find solutions. I am ready to give maximum effort. Libby Bradshaw AS does not justrepresent the relatively few students who vote, but must work in the interests of all students. Thehighest priority student government faces is to work on the d i l e m m a facing the entire college-morestudents needing more services while money becomes less available. It is imperative that the quality ofcollege education does not deteriorate. To cope with the trouble of the times requires more thanmediocrity. John Eastman I believe that one of the basic i n g r e d i e n t s of education is motivation.We do not motivate people by doing things to them. Motivation becomes what people generate forthemselves when they experience growth. I believe an equitable distribution of the Associated Studentsbudget allows for diversity in growth. The budget can provide the needed mobility and equipment todiversify p e o p l e ' s growth experiences according to the individual interests of each student. â€¢Terry Kehrli Legislators have blamed their ineffectiveness on student apathy. That is a false claim, for thelegislator need not represent the apathetic student. He should represent the interested student, however, and failure to do so is the legislator's fault, and no one else's. If you are an interested student, you canexpect my help. If you are an apathetic student, you don't need my representation in the legislature.Pam Lawrence Nothing will be accomplished in student government if the students fail to voice aninterest in student services. Constitutional reform and development of many of these services are vital,yet there is no way student legislators can act on behalf of the students with no individual show ofconcern. As a potential legislator, I would try to act on the behalf of interested students.sgwgWBWjgsggggg John McDonell I ' l l go beyond promises of parking, bookstore, academic,publications, AS associations and r e t e n t i o n improvements. My platform reflects a determinedcommitment to retain and make efficient use of the budget, i.e. to make it responsive to our needs. As a representative of your needs, I would work for your participation prior to legislation. I feel such anaccountable government could offer the most efficient and responsive starting point to reflect and initiatesuch joint action. Ron Renard It is quite evident that enrollment at Western is becoming a pressingproblem. The solution is not limiting enrollment. The "Savafi Plan" would incorporate a night schoolprogram with our present class system. Not only would this accommodate more students but it wouldaid students working part time to schedule jobs and classes. I feel that questions of academic issuesshould be of foremost concern. Mary E. Watts Constitutional Reform: The present constitution wassuited to a college population of 3,000, but it fails to meet the needs of a 9,000 plus population. It makes no provision for graduate student in credit-load requirement for- office stating only that eligibility for office requires a minimum of 12 credit-hours-twi6e the minimum graduate load-and makes no provision foxthe cluster college. Until our 'constitution-1 reflects- our-' needs our government cannot. masssm ---------- Western Front - 1970 November 3 - Page 4 ---------- 4 Western Front Tuesday, November 3, 1970 SAMPLE BALLOT This is a sample ballot which will beused in tomorrow's AS Election.

By R. L.BURNETT Saturday's anti-war march in Seattle was anything but a peace march. Although there was no violence, a feeling of tenseness prevailed during the entire three and a half mile march and rally at HighSchool Memorial Stadium in the Seattle Center. This fall's marchers are a different breed from lastspring's. Thousands of persons, mostly student activists for peace, held several long and peacefulmarches last year. Saturday's marchers were, for the most part, hard-core revolutionaries and radicalsusing the guise of peace to advocate radical and perhaps violent political change in this country. A5While 1,500 to 2,000 persons began marching from 23rd Avenue and Madison Street, another 500 to 800 waited at the US Court House on Fifth Avenue. Seattle police patrolled in squads of four near thecourthouse while uniformed guards appeared at courthouse windows and doorways. t h e usual "youthfor" knd ^ ' y o u t h against" groups were represented along with a substantial number of women's libactivists and campaigners mustering a last-ditch effort to support liberals and peace candidates intoday's elections. Several speakers, including Mike Tigar, who said he was one of the defense lawyersfor the Seattle Eight, spoke before the group. Near a "Youth Against War and Fascism" banner, a groupof young evangelists shouted "Jesus loves" and "Jesus is the only answer for peace." As many as 20underground, pro-revolution newspapers were in evidence. A group of men wearing "Free Bobby"helmets started a "Ho, Ho, Ho Chi Minn" chant beneath a Viet Cong flag. Others displayed "stopgenocide" and "free Angela" signs. The two groups of marchers met and started up Fourth Avenue with a six-car police escort. The marchers numbered a mere 2,500. One marcher attributed the small turnoutto a Husky-Duck football game at the University of Washington. The march up Fourth was uneventful.There were few spectators and at least one women was witnessed hustling her small child off the street. A group of about 30 Chicanos wearing brown berets ran ahead to direct marchers into the stadiumwhere nearly 20 persons spoke on everything from abortion .reform to racism. Marchers walked threeand one-half miles through the heart of downtown Seattle to a rally in High School Memorial Stadium atthe Seattle Center. Seattle police were out in force, but there was no violence. Stephanie CoontzSocialist Workers Party WHO CAUSES PREGNANCY? It takes two to tango.

Kirkpatrick recently spent several weeks touring North andSouth Vietnam, Laos and Thailand. A spokesman for the Chicano movement said "peaceful decent isnot working. Its affects for peace, poverty and racism are only negligible." - Stephanie Coontz, speakingfor the Socialist Workers Party, said that too much money was being spent for "aggression in Vietnam"and that the money should be spent solving the problems at home. "Last night Nixon said he'd take offhis gloves," she said referring to a Friday night telecast. "That's fine with us, because it will make iteasier for him to bruise his knuckles.

On theinside looking out. Migrant Workers: By STEVE JOHNSTON Photos by BILL WOODLAND Ever wonder what happened to the Mexican workers you used to see when you were out in strawberry fields duringthe summer? Remember them? The old man in berry-stained khakis, his straw hat pulled low, neverlooking up from the row of berries he was picking. He could finish three rows to your every one. Or theheavy set woman in a faded print dress with plastic bread bags wrapped around her knees to keep themud off. And the worried-looking woman who looked so young and so old at the same time, and who kept calling something in Spanish to a little boy as he ran barefoot across the fields. And remember at theend of the 12-hour day when you climbed into those yellow beat-up school buses to go home, but theMexicans stayed behind to pick the rows the farmer called his "special berries," the ones that went ondisplay in the stores. And when you finally picked up your paycheck you found out you made lessthan$5 a day for all that sweat and crawling, and you hear the Mexicans made $8 or $9 a day. But then, youreason, they stayed in the fields longer. But that was six, maybe eight years ago and time has washedaway any bad memories. Sometimes you think about being out in the fields and sigh with relief that it isall behind you. And those Mexican workers aren't out in those berry fields either. At least not for a while.Now they are down in California or Texas or anywhere a crop has to be picked, dug or thinned. Butthey'll be back this May, just like every year. They'll drive through Burlington or Lynden in their mud-splattered Chevs and Fords, loaded with kids, clothes and dishes. They'll look for the same farm theyworked for last year and then settle down for three months in one room shacks. The mothers will countthe beds and figure out how many kids to a bed. The fathers will check to see how far the bathroom isaway from the house and the kids will run from hut to hut to see if any of their old friends made it up.Now it's November, and the camps are empty. The windows are boarded up and "Keep Out" signs havebeen posted. Some even have fresh coats of paint. All ready for the next season. Only running water incamp.

The ForgottenAmericans There are about 20 camps around the Burlington area. The cleanest one can be seen fromInterestate 5 just past the Chuckanut Drive turnoff. The rest can be searched out by going down toBurlington or going down Chuckanut Drive and taking a right in a town called Allen. Just follow thiscountry road for about three miles. Keep looking for a group of houses that look like toolsheds or horsestables with four walls. The camps are usually set far off the road. And take a friend. If you're caughtgoing on the property it's trespassing and it's always nice to have a friend with you when you go to jail."Seeing the first camp up close is a shock. You've seen migrant housing on TV news specials, but thehouses were always in California or some other distant place. You may wonder why you never noticedthem before. After all it's only 20 miles away. Each camp has about 25 houses, 40 by 16 feet, made into duplexes. A barbed wire fence encircles the whole camp. Just crawl under the wire if you want a closerlook. Inside the house you can see that each family has about 280 square feet of living space (anaverage two bedroom home has 1300 square feet). glllMMIIMUIMHIIIIIIINIIHIIIINtlllHIIIIUIIIMIIIMIIIHMMIIinillHIl X 1 5 i Most of this space is taken up by beds, with just enough room to walk around. A woodburning, pot-bellied stove sets in one corner. There are no inside walls, just bare two-by-fours. Namesand dates are carved into the wood and someone painted "Chicano Power" across one wall. Themattresses are yellow stained and smell of stale urine. The wood floors shine from wear. One buildingsets off from the others. The insides are painted gloss white and a long box with six holes in it is againstone wall. This is the toilet. The building next to the toilet is the shower room. It's just one big room withnozzles sticking out of the wall and a long galvanized trough on the other side. This serves as a sink.Another student from Western was with me when I went through these camps. At one camp he seemedto know what was inside the building even before we went in. I asked him how he knew this camp sowell. "I used to live here when my family was picking berries," he said. * * * In Friday's edition: Who arethe migrants, where do they come from and where do they go. A migrant's collage.

The season-opener will be "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" by Jerry Lawrence and RobertE. Lee.' The two playwrights are noted for their "Inherit the Wind" and "Auntie Mame." The WesternTheatre (formerly Western Players) production will be the regional premiere for this new play, which isoffered by American Playwrights Theatre. The production, directed by Dennis Catrell, will be presented in the music auditorium on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Nov. 12, 13 and 14. Sign Defaced (CPS) -Six members of the Women's Liberation Front defaced a school spirit sign at the University of Texas. Acrowd of mostly men gathered to listen to members of Alpha Tau Omega (ATO) fraternity, co-sponsor ofthe sign with Alpha Chi Omega sorority, argue with the women. The plywood sign shows a large,scantily-clad female standing on a prone white bear. The caption is, "Bust 'Â§m, Bevo." A Bevo is aTexas longhorn, University of Texas' school mascot. The six women, known as the Guerilla TheatreTroupe, marched up to the sign singing and shouting and twice sprayed a stencil in red of, "This exploits women," across the female figure. "We don't plan to press charges or anything. All we wanted to dowas build spirit for a pep rally," said Steve Moore, ATO member who helped put up the sign. Memberscharged that the sign represented women as inferior. The sign was eye-catching because it stereotypedthe woman as a sex object, they claimed. "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" speaks with words ofuniversal wisdom to a world striving for identity and the recognition of man. It catches the spirit ofThoreau, the philosopher and author of "Walden," and shows his pertinence to our times and problems.The American Playwrights Theatre was formed to foster cooperation between American dramatists andnon-profit university, community and resident theatres across the country. New plays of high caliber,which have not yet been presented in New York, are premiered by members each year. Many of them,including "Thoreau," are later purchased by film-makers and Broadway producers, but all are produced in regional theatres first. Lake wood Development on Ballot Tomorrow By GLEN JONES Student opinionhas been called for on the ballot for. tomorrow's A.S. general election. "I would like to see theAssociated Student Lakewood Development Project carried to completion." Yes or No? This was also aquestion on last week's primary election ballot. The official results of that primary were: Yes-954; No-213. The Lakewood Development will again be on the ballot tomorrow. This time results of the vote willstand. Lakewood is a student recreation area on Lake Whatcom." The Lakewood Development Project is intended to make more out of what the college has at the site. If the Lakewood development isapproved it would include, according to present architectural plans, a larger lodge, housing for crew teamshells, sewage construction and facilities'for the Fresh Water Institute of Western. Lakewood is aboutseven miles from campus on the lower side of Lake Whatcom, just before the Sudden Valleydevelopment, consisting of about seven and a half acres of choice land between the road and the lakeshore. . Already on the property for student use are a dock, boat storage, bath house, and a smalllodge. Other facilities include canoes, rowboats and sailboats. Any student is welcome at Lakewood allyear round, although most use centers around Spring and Summer. Any individual or group may use thelodge. US Campuses Tensions Report Focuses on Self-Help Reforms MADISON, Wis. (IP) - Researchmay be getting over-emphasized at the expense of undergraduate teaching, according to a report oncampus tensions at universities throughout the United States. Professor George Bunn of the Universityof Wisconsin (UW) Law School said the UW at Madison campus is an example of how the need forincreased attention to teaching has been re-evaluated. â€¢ Bunn is a member of a special studycommittee which recently released its report. "We recommend a better balance by giving good teachinggreater recognition in hiring and promotion," he said. "The report also suggests that students beconsulted on faculty teaching competence before decisions on tenure or promotion are made. Toimpro
