The current estimate is for 12,500. A new planning committee, headed by Viking Union Director Kay Burke, is trying to re-evaluate the college's recreational priorities in light of the budget cuts. The original plan called for a three-story recreation complex to house 10 bowling alleys, a 500-seat coffee shop, a 4,500-person capacitydance and meeting hall, a two-story bookstore, an Olympic-sized swimming pool and storage facilities foroutdoor field activities. The multi-purpose complex - to have been built at the corner of 21st Street andCollege Parkway-was slated for completion by 1972. Miss Burke said that a survey taken winter quarterrevealed that students did not agree with the center's indoor-oriented function. She said the planningcommittee, composed of six students and six faculty-administration representatives, is now consideringplans for a less expensive "fieldhouse design" that would cater primarily to outdoor activities. Theswimming pool, she said, is still high on the priorities list. Financing for the center depends on a loan from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). To qualify for the loan, the college mustsubmit a proposal to HUD by mid-June of this year. Campus Planner Barney Goltz said "the heat is on toget a proposal in time to qualify for the low-interest federal loan." He added that $30,000 has alreadybeen sunk into planning for the center. Miss Burke said that the committee will be talking to variouscampus groups Monday to get their ideas on which parts of the old plan should be retained and whichparts should be eliminated. "Right now it looks as if it will be more of a physical activities center," shesaid. No construction will begin before 1974. Curriculum Report Cost College 'Millions' The CurriculumCommission Report has cost Western over $2 million, according to a tongue-in-cheek estimate by DavidMarsh, chairman of the Art Department. The cost breaks down as follows: -$17,780 in paper and inks for printing the report and replies. â€”$11,293 in wear and tear on duplicating machines. -$334,000 inclerical help for typing, printing, collating, and disseminating the report and replies. -$1,880,000 in faculty salaries for time spent in discussing the report when they could have been engaged in teaching andother scholarly activities. -$115,000 in custodial help for removal of excess paper. -$25,000 in breakagecaused by irate faculty members. If anyone wishes to question these figures, Marsh said the facts canbe made to f i t the figures later.

The recommendation was made to the Board of Trustees in an attempt to make the Housing and Dining System moreattractive to students, according to Pete Coy, assistant director of housing. The changes wererecommended to bring Western's policy in line with existing state laws allowing individuals who havereached legal age to consume alcoholic beverages in their dorm rooms. This change would bring Western in line with Central, the University of Washington and Washington State University which have alreadychanged their policies to allow students of legal age to consume alcoholic beverages in residence hallrooms. The housing office also recommended that the Board of Trustees reconsider the matter- of socialvisitation which would include 24-hour visitation by members of the opposite sex in the residence halls.With the approval of the dean of students, a living group could adopt the 24-hour visitation policy providing two-thirds of the occupants of each hall, subdivision thereof or complex approve the policy eachacademic year. Under the proposal these changes would not be implemented in all of the residencehalls. The housing office proposed that each policy be implemented only the halls where the physicalcharacteristics of the building, lack of legal difficulty, student maturity and the desires of residents permitsuch implementation. The proposal further calls for role changes for the residence hall staff fromcounselor and rule enforcer to that of counselor only. The proposal explains that the rationale for thesechanges in policy is to allow the college to offer students greater variety in their campus housing thanpresently exists. It also states that it is the housing office's hope that they can offer nearly every student, whether new or returning, either limited or more flexible social atmospheres from which to choose whenhe decides on a place to live. AS Legislature Considers Three Key Changes The AS Legislature isconsidering three changes: forming an alternative to the code of conduct recently passed by the Board ofTrustees; t o t a l l y reorganizing the structure of AS Legislature; and giving the AS deed to Lakewoodto Housing and Dining so they can further develop and retain the facilities. CODE OF CONDUCTSpeaker Mary Watts reported in the Tuesday meeting that the Board of Trustees listened to studentobjections on the code of conduct and then went ahead and passed it. "I know there are a lot of peoplewho aren't too happy about the way it is now," legislator Rich Hass said. He suggested that legislaturecould come up with a meaningful alternative to the code and "give it a whirl with the Board of Trustees."Several legislators are planning to form an alternative. Director of the Viking Union Kay Burke said thatthe Navigator will be printed in June or July and that any changes in the Code or alternatives to it wouldhave to be passed before then. LEGISLATURE REORGANIZATION A proposal for reconstruction of ASLegislature came out of the Responsible Leadership Committee, was discussed at some length bylegislators and minor changes were suggested. The proposal was submitted by AS Business ManagerRich Hass as an attempt to fit legislature into the Daugert and Council of Student Services (COSS)Proposals. Under the proposal for reorganization, "legislature will get away from passing bills andconsider matters of policy and appointments," Hass said. The proposal suggests that an AS GeneralAssembly replace the present legislature. The Assembly would consist of 12 members, with half of these elected at large. The remaining six members would be representatives from student services, academicrelations, community relations, programs, publications and business and finance. Hass suggested thatsix students from the all-college Senate proposed by the Daugert Proposal might also be on theAssembly. " T h e proposal opens up lines of communication between AS bodies," he said. Thelegislature will continue discussion of the proposal. A move to table the proposal indefinitely wasdefeated. LAKEWOOD DEVELOPMENT "Probably the only way any development will get done atLakewood will be if students give up their deed to the state so Housing and Dining can sell bonds,"Viking Union staff member Barry Boniface told the legislators Tuesday. He said that Housing and Diningis prepared to go ahead with plans for development immediately if the deed is given back to the state.This is because bonds can't be sold by Housing and Dining unless the property is owned by the state,Boniface said. "The facilities will just fall apart now," he said. "In five years there wouldn't be anythinguseable except part of the boathouse." Housing and Dining is prepared to invest about $150,000 forremodeling and upkeep of Lakewood facilities, Boniface said. The investment would include severalchanges: -revamping the boathouse Â«. -building on a bathhouse â€¢ -building a small lounge. -addingon a caretakers cabin. A committee would be set up to decide what would be done with Lakewood andthe majority of that committee would be students, he said. . "The important thing is who gets to say what is done, not who has the deed," he said. Boniface will do some more research on the status of the deed to Lakewood and bring the matter before legislature again this quarter. Late Budget Challenged- $23Million for Western '.". r i.--] .- \ t i, The State Legislature finally agreed on a budget that gives Westernnearly $23.6 million for the coming bienniumâ€”but the agreement may have come too late. Gov. DanEvans Tuesday asked Attorney General Slade Gorton for a ruling on the legality of the budget passedafter the deadline for ending the special session. Mike Barnhart, administrative assistant to PresidentCharles J. Flora, said the college budget included a restoration of $248,000 for book purchases forWilson Library which had been deleted by Sen. Fred Dore (D-Seattle) and his Appropriations Committee. Barnhart said Sen. R. Frank Atwood (R-Bellingham) led an all-out fight against cuts in the highereducation budget. "He did everything in his power to increase our budget," Barnhart added. The legalquestion, involves, ttie legislature's stopping their clocks at 11:56 p.m. Monday to pass the budget and aseries of tax bills. "The governor requested the tuition increase when he gave the legislature his budgetproposal," Barnhart said. "The budget is based on tuition being set at $149 per quarter for in-statestudents." The bill authorizes the Board of Trustees at each state college to charge a maximum.of $169per quarter for tuition and fees. However, Barnhart said he would be "surprised if Western goes over the$149 written into the budget." "The Board of Trustees went on record at the beginning of the sessionagainst any tuition increase at this time," he said. The House-passed version of the tuition bill includedan exemption from the increase for combat-zone veterans of the Vietnam War, but the Senate made upfor some of the revenue lost by attaching a $20 per quarte; surcharge on graduate , student tuiripA- . ,. lt;: .. gt;, .-..'. ~ a 'â€¢ lt; - - ---------- Western Front - 1971 May 14 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, May 14, 1971 Western Front Man in the Street Grading System Found Unpopular with Students By ROBIN PROBST Front Reporter The general consensus of a randomly interviewed group of studentswas that the present grading system is not fair and should be changed. Ginger Davenport, a sophomoredance major from Renton thinks the present grading system is totally unfair. "There shouldn't be anygrades at all, except if a person wants to evaluate himself," she said. Fabienne Wood, a sophomorebusiness education major from Seattle, feels that there should not be any grading system. "Pass/Fail orcredit, credit with distinction or no credit would be a possible substitute," Fabienne said. OdunoYobandi, a senior communication major, said people should be concerned about the content receivedfrom a class and not the grade. "Society today is credentialized," he said. "You don't have to know much as long as you have the credentials." Charlotte Hann, a junior biology major from Buckley, agrees thatthere should not be any grades. . , "What a person learns is his own business, sne said. "If a personisn't there to learn lie shouldn't be there." . Jim Harmon, a junior art education major trom Longviewthinks grades should be strictly pass/fail. "The curriculum is lousy, it should have more variation," headded. Martv Reeh, a freshman from Bellevue, doesn t think the grading system is fair and that maybe apass/fail or complete abolishment of grades would be better. "People should come to college to learn fora change," Marty said. Cindy Donnerberg, a junior from Mount Vernon said that all through school shehad only known an ABC grading system. She wasn't sure if any other system would be better. "Pass/fail seems vague, credit, credit with distinction, no credit and incomplete would be better," she said. NancyMcCready, a sophomore from Fairhaven feels that too much emphasis is put on grades. "The extraachievement should be added to the student by way of personal comment by the professor," she said.Larry Palmer, a senior speech major from Snohomish feels that any grading system that involves anordered evaluation isn't adequate. "Pass/fail doesn't provide the answer because I don't think that itstimulates a student to do his best," he said. "Personal evaluation from the instructor would be better."Then you would have to be friendly to the instructor so maybe that wouldn't work, he said. He concludedthat no grades at all would be best. Donna Vecchione, a part time special student from Bellingham is allfor grades, but with more categories or variation in grading levels. If a student fails a class no recordshould be kept of it she feels. CHARLOTTE HANN JIM HARMON Volunteers Needed to Clean Whatcom Creek Park Site By MARIE HAUGEN Front Reporter Volunteers to clean up Whatcom Creek inpreparation for a city park are asked to meet at 9 a.m. tomorrow behind Discount City. A "green belt"park along Whatcom Creek has long been a plan of the city government.. But, so far the city hasn't taken any actual steps toward that goal. A group of concerned citizens, headed by Chuck Sawyer, asophomore environmental planning major from Seattle, are trying to create community and collegeinterest so the city will take over the creation of the park. Sawyer's group has been working to clean up a portion of the creek that lies between the bridges on Cornwall and Young streets, behind Discount City.Two work-days have been held to clean brush and prepare the area for planting next fall. The completedpark would run along Whatcom Creek from Bellingham Bay to Lake Whatcom, with greenery and a gravel pathway. A cost estimate for the area they are working on runs between $10,000 and $15,000, but thisappraisal doesn't take volunteer labor into consideration. The City Council has had some formaldiscussion on the park, and has delegated authority concerning it to the City Water Department. Aformal fund raising drive has just begun, and money, trees, shrubs, flowers and any landscapingmaterials are needed. Kathi Rossi, a junior Huxley student from Seattle is in charge of donations, andmay be reached at 676-0146. Mount Baker Mutual Savings Bank has donated $2,000 to the project, and Dick Wilson of Wilson Motors is donating trucks to haul away debris. People are also needed to helporganize planting next fall. Anyone interested may contact Miss Rossi. The Daugert Proposal and theFaculty Council Part II By RON GRAHAM Managing Editor Editor's note: This article is the second in aseries exploring how the Daugert Proposal will affect the existing parts of campus governance. It dealswith the change-over of faculty decision-making bodies as explained by Faculty Council Chairman MelDavidson. The function of the present Faculty Council will be taken over by the Academic CoordinatingCommission (ACC) and, to a certain extent, the All-College Senate, Davidson told the Front Tuesday.Though the ACC may be established by the end of fall quarter, Davidson said he expects the FacultyCouncil will not disband until spring quarter. Governmental operations will probably follow some sort ofextra-legal procedures until the senate body and lower councils are appropriately chosen, he said. Thesequence of the changeover will likely be as follows: -Election of senators (probably during September or October). -First convention of senate (during fall quarter). -Election of senators to ACC anddetermination of how the ACC will intermesh with lower councils (probably during fall and winter quarters) -Establishment of Committee on Committees and Councils which will decide what committees arenecessary and who will be on them, (also during fall and winter quarters). "By spring quarter we shouldbe pretty well in gear," Davidson said. The ACC will have the function of â€¢ review over decisions madeby lower councils, decision-making on broad, long-term policy and will perhaps adjudicate any disputesthat may develop, Davidson said. Particular decisions on something like optional minors or 180 creditswould be made by the Undergraduate Council which is equivalent to the present Academic Council, heexplained. "The hope is that by having one council (ACC) coordinating the councils and committees, wewill do away with duplication." Faculty senators will be elected much as Faculty Council members havebeen in the past, some elected by departments and others at large. The faculty senators will beappointed to councils, and the cpmmittees of tjie -various councils by the ACC, he said. * The standingcommittees now existing under the Faculty Council will just be phased out, Davidson said. Eitherfaculty-staff or faculty-student committees will take over the functions of those committees depending onwhat the needs are, he added. Decisions exclusively concerning faculty, such as faculty retirementprocedures or designation for faculty scholarships could be decided by a faculty caucus, he suggested.Problems have developed because college governance has never been modifying fast enough to keeppace with the growth of the college, he said. The Daugert Proposal for all-college governance should , be able to handle college governance/Davidson hopes. ---------- Western Front - 1971 May 14 - Page 4 ---------- Western Front Friday, May 14, 1971 Front Editorials.. " To comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted" Safety Hazard The inadequately displayed stop sign in the above photograph poses a serious safety hazard to city and college drivers using High Street. It is located immediately south of the musicauditorium at the intersection with West Campus Way By-pass. During night-time, the sign's location isnot within the peripheral range of a normal auto's headlights. Usually, car headlights do not hit the sign'sreflective surface, making Name/ess Buildings The Board of Trustees, on recommendation fromPresident Flora, has named the Housing '71 project Buchanan Towers in honor of Sam Buchanan, former college business manager. No offense to Mr. Buchanan, but we believe the monstrosity should havebeen named after Herman Goodbody, a longtime campus painter who gained brief notoriety for servicingthe flagpole in the Ida Agnes Baker Memorial Bird Sanctuary during the heighth of the swallow season of 1929. As long as the trustees are in the mood for naming buildings on campus, may we pass on a fewmodest suggestions for their consideration: Music-auditoriumâ€”Should be named after HansWeiderklumpft, a musical biologist who, while doing a stretch at Melody Acres Sanitorium in 1943, wentstark-raving mad trying to cross-breed a sousaphone and a yellow-bellied hummingbird. Humanitiesbuildingâ€”Why not name it the Hortence B. Adenoid Humanities building in honor of the former poetess-in-residence who on May 8, 1907 fought off a hoard of stinging yellow jackets at a faculty tea at thepresident's mansion it barely visible. We believe the City Street Department should replace the presentinadequate stop sign at this location with an overhead flashing red light to warn oncoming cars. The cityand the college cannot afford a serious mishap at this new intersection. The city can afford to replace the sign with a warning devide which would alleviate the hazard. by shouting three verses from TheCremation of Sam McGee." Co-op Bookstoreâ€”Should be named in honor of undergraduate EddieHenderson, who during the fall of 1949 actually talked a bookstore clerk into buying back his usedtextbook. Lecture Hall buildingsâ€”Should be named after Biflie (Topsails) Budweiser, a minor studentgovernment bureaucrat who in 1951â€”during a seizure of paranoic ecstacyâ€”liberated the microphone at a humanities lecture and wildly announced he had "documented proof" that President Truman was incahoots with Venusian infiltrators planning a takeover of Earth. Budweiser was thrown out of school fordisorderly conduct, but soon afterwards picked up a job as assistant dean of men in charge of spying atstudent keggers on Indian Street. Well, we certainly hope this gives the trustees a few good ideas. Ifthere is anything we can't stand, it's not being able to look up at one of Western's many un-namededifices and say, "Gee, I wonder why they called it that?" â€”John Stolpe EDITOR: John StolpeMANAGING EDITOR: Ron Graham ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Bob Taylor COPY EDITOR: Jim AustinASSISTANT COPY EDITOR: Larry Lemon SPORTS EDITOR: Kent Sherwood PHOTO EDITOR: DaveSherman ASSOCIATE PHOTO EDITOR: Loren Bliss STAFF REPORTERS Sigma Delta Chi's FirstPlace 4^Year College Newspaper GENERAL ASSIGNMENT: Glen Jones, Jim Thomson, Pat Brennen,Mike Kerr, Rick Ries, Marilee Pethtel, Dianne Jacobs.

BILLSODT Campus Christian Ministry Mrs. Reagan now hopes that her husband will drop outâ€”of politics.He should. After he had whined that paying taxes should be painful so people would know how muchthey're paying, the campus radio at Sacramento State leaked the news that he himself had paid no stateincome tax in 1970. On TV he was so shaken by an inquiry that he could only stammer that he didn'tremember how much he had paid. A short time later his PR man announced that "due to businesslosses" he had endured the pain of paying nothing to his own collectors on his over $40,000 salary. Thisparagon is part of one of the most scandalous abuses in our society: avoidance of tax by the super-rich.He is wrong. But he'll likely run again, because our politics tolerates wrongness if it benefits enoughpeople. Eradicating wrongness from power is nigh impossible in American society. Any thinking personknows that we in America are using resources and polluting the world's air at a mortal rateâ€”and that theprime agent is the automobile which consumes oil and emits poison in a criminal way. But the privatetransportation octopus wraps its tentacles around every facet of American life. Have you noticed thefrantic highway building eating up the land on Route 5 between Seattle and Bellingham? It's not likely tolet up, because we like the comfort of that speedy drive. The State Legislature almost took two cents offthe gasoline tax, which the constitution commits to the highway monster, and almost put the same twocents onto a sales tax on gasoline, to be used for decent purposes like feeding people. But you knowwhat happened. The highway, auto, tire, gasoline, and dealer lobbies got to our legislators. Now the carscan race and the poor can starve. That's American politics. The legislature almost passed a unit-pricingbill for groceries, which would have made it less possible for the packagers to confuse consumers intopaying as much as five dollars a pound for cool-aid. (That's just one of the cozy tricks exposed by NET's'Great American Dream Machine' TV series.) But the grocers' lobby got there first, and the fantasy goeson. Wrongness leaps out wherever you look. And we tolerate it, out of either bad self interest, orfrustration at trying vainly to combat big-power interest. ifÂ» *t" *i* HÂ» HÂ» Two weeks ago, workingwithin the only system available, the AS Legislature brought out a bill requiring the college food service tobuy only the Black Eagle lettuce picked by protected migrants of the United Farm Workers OrganizingCommittee, the non-violent, non-sweetheart union led by Cesar Chavez, down in Reagan's territory.Chavez is, by all reports, as Christian a man as is on the national scene nowâ€”deeply spiritualâ€”veteranof years of patient work for his exploited peopleâ€”victim of frightful pressure by big tax-write-off agri-business in Californiaâ€”a man whose committee deserves powerful support from fellow Christians and alldecent people, for the sake of Tightness. What kind of lettuce you're eating on campus is still uncertain.But one thing you can doâ€”a little thing, sure-is to DEMAND THAT ONLY CLEAN LETTUCE BE ONYOUR TABLE. Here's one chance for each single person to have some effect on Governor Reagan'sonerous policy, and to get about the business of "giving a cup of water to one of the least of these mybrethren." (Matthew 25) ---------- Western Front - 1971 May 14 - Page 5 ---------- Friday, May 14, 1971 Western Front 5 Letters from our readers Explains Voter RegistrationRequirements Editor: It's time for those of you student niggers who plan to be in Bellingham next fall toregister to vote. To register you must be 21 by Sept. 21, 1971 (the primary), a U.S. citizen, and m e e tthe r e s i d e n cy requirements. According to the League of Women Voters, these i n c l u d e havinglived in Washington for one year, in Whatcom County for 90 days and in your city or your countyprecinct for 30 days. To register go to the Bellingham City Hall (comptroller's office). If you live outsidethe city go to the County Courthouse. T h e r e are no other r e q u i r e m e n t s for voter registration.Until recently, the city comptroller refused to let certain categories of students register to vote inBellingham, requiring that they register at their parents residence. Recently, State Attorney GeneralSlade Gorton confirmed a 1946 opinion holding that students may vote in their college communities.According to Gorton, presence is not enough to establish voting residency. But the legal residencyrequirement is met when the student "intends to remain at J;he college town for an appreciable length oftime" or when he "has no intention of returning home, but is not certain as to the place of his futureresidence." So if you want to vote in Bellingham as your home for the time being, you have the right toregister here. Important: those of you who will be out of town for the summer who are otherwise eligibleto vote and wish to participate in the fall elections here probably must register before you leave. Onceregistered, you retain your eligibility to vote here until you miss a general election or u n t i l you transferyour r e g i s t r a t i o n . You probably wouldn't be able to meet the 90-day county residence if youtried to register next fall after a summer of absence. You shouldn't feel any qualms about leaving for thesummer and voting here by the fall. The director of Vested Interests, Inc. lives in southern Spain everysummer and votes in Pennsylvania even though he lives in New York most of the time. Voters alreadyregistered elsewhere who have established residence here can transfer that registration to Bellingham ifthey wish. The county or city registration people will help you. Caution:. When they learn you are astudent they may try to discourage you from registering in Bellingham. I certainly had this experience.Don't be intimidated. You know the residency requirements and they don't include vocation or financialstatus. Tell them that Bellingham is your home for an appreciable length of time and that you have nopresent intentions of moving. You will be under oath' and they must take you at your word. If they turnyou down and you feel that they have done so unjustly, contact Jerry Richard, ACLU representative, 676-3700 or 733-8551. For further information you can call Susan Anastasio, 733-7055 or Carolyn Tyler,734-0938 of the League of Women Voters. A constitutional amendment allowing 18- to 20-year olds tovote in all state and local elections is being ratified by the states. Watch the papers. If the amendment is ratified in time for you to be eligible to vote in the fall elections get down and register. And rememberBerkeley. Jim Hansen A.S.

First, the actual urge for the maliciousactions has its beginnings in overpopulation, "people epidemic." This people pressure disrupts thenervous systems. This biological quirk has been proven in laboratory, especially with lemmings andvoles. Cage crowding makes them first over-produce for their habitat, and then do their "death march tothe sea." People now exhibit the same reaction. Only population control and "negative increase" willcure this "urge to demonstrate" problem basically. Secondly, the fractured mind, hippiism, caused bypeople pressure, now fails to p r o v i d e a c o n s t r u c t i ve replacement for the vacuum created bythe destruction of government. This same thing happened when the early centuries of Christian hippiism destroyed Roman law and order, but themselves had no -suitable government to propose. The resultingchaos lasted for centuries. History repeats itself. Besides, "Liberalism, as a theory of freedom, by itsvery nature operates best within a stable policital environment; it is not well suited to the task ofestablishing political stability." (R. Pipes, UW Press, 1970.) Thirdly, to stop the wars we shouldeliminate the two basic causes which start all major wars. They are: 1. the religious and priestly greedfor dominance and the lust for destroying another's walk toward God. This, so non-Christlike, was theunderlying beginning of conflict in French Indochina, just as it was the cause of heartache and sufferingin medieval Europe and the Crusades, and now, for the umpteenth time, in the Near East.(Psychologically, this is a latent heritage from ancient people, in which the enemy is considered as asuitable sacrifice to Earth-mother goddess of fecundity. Joshua had it at Jericho, and the Jew had it atthe crucifixion, and the Catholic at the gates of Jerusalem, and the Christian at Salem under CottonMather. Now we "feed the earth" in Vietnam a "blood of sacrifice." This field is never much examined bythe layman's docile religiosity. The layman's conservative faith may never move mountains, but it oftencarries mountainous loads of brainwashing orthodoxy without complaint, as "subject" rather than"citizen" in freedom. The priestly greed to keep things so, is evident.) 2. The economic greed, the whole "cost plus contract" affairâ€”this too considers the peopleâ€”and the next generation and all our naturalresourcesâ€”to be but "commodities" to be exploited to satisfy present greeds. Must the wars go onforever just to satisfy the insatiable lust for fattened contracts, and the war i n d u s t r y never bedemolized? Here too, as under priesthood, reproduction is encouraged, to provide the sacrifice offering.In both Church and" the exploiter their own people as well as the published enemy, are considered to be legitimate victim, expendible to greed. It seems to me the wars will not end until these two basicgreeds are eliminated, not by coercions (demonstration) from without, but rather by a thorough house-cleaning from within, voluntarily done by those greedy two. (Admittedly, much to expect.) until this is do n e the witch doctor demonstration may do more to fracture the ability for real diagnosis than to curethe pestilence. Certainly the burning of bridges to tomorrow by those who cannot build replacements isscarcely a hope-filling contribution. Certainly too, constructive opposition must have other basics than,quote, "A boundless hatred for p e o p l e . " (General Denikin, Russian liberal, commenting onbolshivism, 1917.) If honest search for sound thinking now generates a dogmatism of assumedTightness, lacking compassion, and if the "opposition" now fails to add C h r i s t ' s s y m p a t h y arid selflessness to Greek reason and moderation, and still needs to be ashamed like the priest and theexploiter, then civilized man once again has not yet arrived.

What does it mean to Black students? For sure it isn't justice.In many ways the board represents and reflects the court system here in America in relevance to theBlack man. It's obvious that eight White students cannot begin to understand Black students, let alonejudge them. Recently the board selected a Black student to the board, so now there are seven Whitesand one Black (tokenism). Does one to seven sound like a majority? Can the newly selected Blackboard member be instrumental in getting justice from the Whites? Hell no! The 14th amendment to theU.S. Constitution gives a man a right to be tried by his peer group. A peer is a person from similareconomic, social, religious, geographic, environmental, historical, and racial background. Obviously theIntermediate All-Student Judiciary Board is violating this law. The board is definitely no peer group ofBlack students. To accomplish the definition stated in the constitution (on peer groups) it is necessary, if true justice is seeked, to pick an all-Black student aboard. In the Navigator there is no mention of peergroups. So were the authors of the Navigator really thinking about true justice? Patricia Jackson, 19,junior, the only Black on the board comments on the Intermediate All-Student Judiciary Board: "I knewbefore being selected to the board that it would be tokenism if I was selected. I was interested in findingout what makes the board tick. I alone cannot represent the Black student's peer group. I know thatjustice cannot be accomplished by one Black and seven Whites, but it can be by their peer group. If it isright for White students to be tried by Whites then why is it not right for Blacks to be tried by Blacks?"During winter quarter I witnessed some trials in which Blacks were tried. In all the cases a fair trial did not occur. Is the Black man getting a fair shake in the land of the free (joke)? Ask Angela Davis, BobbySeale. . . . Opinion Islam: A Way of Life ABSOLUTELY PURE CERTIFIED ORGANIC in the bellinghammall Prepared by Muslim Students Association. Islam is a progressive and revolutionary ideology;revolutionary in all fields of human life, revolutionary in thought and precipitation revolutionary in thefeelings and relations between individuals and society. Islam creates a society which embodies a Perfect Equality among all peoples of the world. So Islam is not only a series of commands or ceremonialrituals which man performs at particular hours or days of the week. Rather it is comprised of a series ofexalted principles and beliefs and a group of life-nurturing messages which are deeply rooted in man'sindividual and social life. Islam provides all men with definite guidelines in a comprehensive code ofconduct dealing with the social, economic, political, moral and spiritual aspects of life. For in short, Islam is a way of life, a life in which man is given the highest consideration. Islamic economic values arebased on moral and spiritual considerations. Man is neither an automaton nor an impersonal being,subjected to dialectic materialism. Rather he is the very essence of execution to which everything in theuniverse is subservient. Islam does not teach man to be so self-centered and so self-possessed as tobecome the very symbol of die-hard individualism, nor does Islam want man to be lost in the fathomlesssea of collectivism. Islam strikes a balance between the individual and society and makes onecomplimentary to the other. Islam does not divide man on the basis of class, and therefore does not base history on class struggle. In Islam the only yardstick which differentiates man from man is one's pietyand righteousness. Islam brings a harmonious blend between one's duties to oneself, one's duties toAllah (God), and one's duties to fellow men. Thus, Islam chisels off any sharp edges which may interferewith the healthy and poised growth of human society. It helps in the building up of a healthy classlessnation of equals and brothers. The Islamic socio-economic order is a system which gives birth to abalanced welfare society, where no one is so rich as to become tyrannical, and no one is so poor as toge begging. Islam, through its balanced approach to life, does not allow a lopsided growth of humansociety; but rather builds up, without regimentation, many organized social welfare communities byeliminating economic malpractices. This does not mean that Islam believes in equal distribution ofwealth. Islam only wants to end oppression and exploitation by demanding an equitable distribution ofwealth as far as possible. In an Islamic society basic human needsâ€”food, medical care, housing,education, security, etc.â€”are the primary responsibilities of the state. And as to the treatment oflaborers and workers, no social order in the world gives them any better than what Islam bestows uponits adherents.

Could you tell me the cause and if it is aserious problem that must be corrected in the near future? ANSWER: Urethral burning can be causedby gonorrhea. In such a case the burning is severe and there is usually a discharge. Immediatetreatment is advised. Other causes of burning can be an overly concentrated urine due to dehydration, or the presence of some unusual substances in the urine. Some men report the desire to urinate following intercourse; this appears related to the presence of semen in the urethra.

Richard Feringer, associate professor and director of Continuing Studies, used his power as chairman of the committee to veto the poster. There are 4,000 of the vetoed postersprinted. The committee now plans to tear off the "inappropriate" part-a nude woman with a man'sheadâ€”and use the informational half. Six members of the art world, all with different backgrounds, willpresent a spring Symposium on the Arts Wednesday through Saturday. The symposium is presented byArts and Lectures, Student Activities Commission, Continuing Studies and various departments. MurraySchaffer will begin the symposium when he discusses "Patria: A Work in Progress," at 8 p.m.Wednesday in the Viking Union Lounge. Schaffer, a professor of communication studies at Simon Fraser University in Bufnaby, B.C. has written in many forms. "Patria . . ." is his latest multi-media opera.William H. Gass will discuss his most recent book, "Fiction and the Figures of Life," at 9:30 a.m.Thursday in the lounge. Gass is a professor and literary critic from Washington University in St. Louis.Dugald MacArthur of the School of Theater Robert a dual and Dance at the California Institute of the Arts will talk about "Drama Inside and Ouside the Academy" at 2 p.m. Thursday in the lounge. The California Institute of the Arts is a Disney-financed school in Burbank where students explore all the arts and theirrelationships At 8 p.m. Thursday in the lounge Morris and Yvonne Rainer will give performance. Morris,an American Minimalist, is a sculptor who creates works which are holistic and unitary. Minimalists usenew materials, freeing themselves from chisel and casting; they are concerned only with the compositionitself. Rainer is a dancer who regards the human body as a system of gears and levers capable of aninfinite variety of motions; her performance will be an exploration of this theme. Friday at 2 p.m. inLecture Hall 2, Morris will discuss the topic "Disappearing Art-Where is it going?" Also on Friday at 8p.m. in the Music Auditorium, a panel discussion made up of the guest artists will be presented; theirtopic will be "Disorder and New Ideas of Order in the Arts." The artists will be available in the VikingUnion to talk with interested students at 2 p.m. Saturday. The symposium concludes Saturday at 8 p.m. with Eric Salzman presenting "Feedback" in the lounge. Feedback will be an improvisatory performance in which students will experience different sensory experiences. Walkers Net Over $4,000 Nearly 365energetic people from all walks of life participated in the Walk for Development last Saturday. . MarthaRoot, junior English major irom Longview and co-ordinator of the walk, said that between $4,000 and$7,000 is anticipated for the effort. . t , Miss Root explained that the money is to be divided three ways:42% per cent will remain in Whatcom County and go to the Nooksack Indians and the Bellingham DayCare Center; 42% per cent will go to a Guatemala self-help project, and the remaining 15 per cent goesto the American Freedom from Hunger Organization. Before the walk, participants asked roommatesfriends, neighbors, teachers, parents and others to sponsor them for each mile they walked. Mostsponsors paid from one dollar down to three cents per mile. Of the nearly 365 people that started at 9a.m. Saturday, about 175 finished the 23-mile course, and they were still coming in at 7 p.m. Fourstudents chose to run or jog the entire 23 miles and finished in just over four hours. The first non-runner to cross the finish line was Farrokh Safavi, a 30-year-old associate professor of economics and native ofIran. "When I first started walking, I expected to only walk about eight or ten miles. Then, when I saw the others, I wanted to show the whole community that instructors are not only good in the classroom butalso, when it comes to expenditures of physical efforts," Safavi said. Another inspiration to Safavi was astory of an ancestor in Iran, Shah Abbas. _ "About 300 year ago, the Shah prayed to God that if hecould defend the country from the aggression of the invaders, he would walk the distance between twocities (700 miles). "In orders to pledge, his -faith, to-God rand in-i;::: llP FARROKH SAFAVIdetermination to serve his fellow countrymen, he walked the 700 miles and, therefore, was able to defendthe country against the larger army. "I remembered this as I walked, and thought if my ancestor could dothis, I should be able to walk 23 miles," he said. Safavi had nine sponsors that paid from three cents to50 cents per mile. He earned $46.69 for ihe pause, in,a,b,QU,t,six, hours of walking.^ . . . . . THREEDOORS SOUTH OF SHAKEY'S ON I I . STATE ST.

Discussion centered around six proposed gradingsystems and whether Western should have a one-track or two-track system. Western presently has atwo-track system in which the student has the choice of grades or pass-fail. Paul Roley, associateprofessor of history, expressed the frustration of many council members. "I don't really know which wayto go. There are things about the present system I don't care for, but I think it would be to our advantageto go back to the faculty and get a clear idea of what the faculty itself wants." In an attempt to narrowdown the proposals, the council conducted an informal straw ballot in which each member cast threevotes. The results were: -Combined system-A, B, P, NP, W, K. -Expanded system-A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, etc., -Present system-A, B, C, D, F, plus P, NP -Ad-hoc committee on grading-CD, C, NC, Kâ€”Othersâ€”C, NC, and/or written evaluationâ€”A, B, C, NC, W, K, plus P, NP, The council alsodiscussed the effect of a change in grading with other institutions and employers. Robert Thirsk,assistant director of admissions, told the council that most students that graduate at Western come from other institutions. "We're not looking at the transcript as a piece of paper, but at the type of institutionthe student has come from, the type of work that the student has taken overall, and so on. "I think moreand more institutions are going to evaluate students this way. More institutions today areaccommodating different types of grading systems and I don't think the students will be hurt," he said.Regarding the effect of a new system from the employers' standpoint, it was thought that employersshould be able to determine what kind of performance the student did in school. Louis Lallas, director ofthe placement center, said, "I think the employer is sincerely interested in what kind of job the studentdid while he was here, whatever the grading system. " I t is conceivable under the Ad-hoc Committee'sproposal that a student might end four years of college with straight credit and the employer wouldprobably shuffle his application to the bottom of the stack." Richard Francis, associate professor ofEnglish, referred to a report by Robert Meade, professor of psychology, that indicated .employers didn'tput a great deal of emphasis on grades, that they relied heavily on letters of recommendation, interviewsand other data. But, Ziegler said, "I read in the paper that we had 1,200 applicants for 25 positions in the Bellingham School District. "I called the man who makes the decisions and asked him how he chosethe best applicants, whether grades made the difference. The man said that subconsciously, if he saw astudent just had credit rather than letter grades, it would probably influence him against the applicant."Philip Montague, assistant professor of philosophy, among others, thought the council should postponethe decision on the type of grading system at that time. "I think we ought to get a vote of the faculty andvote accordingly. There are many questions that have been raised and not answered," Montague said.Campus Briefs Speakers Bureau Started A Speakers Bureau is being organized to give students anopportunity to share information beyond the college community. The bureau will list student speakersavailable to groups and organizations in Whatcom County. Alden Smith, assistant professor of speech, is advisor to the Bureau which will begin fall quarter. Smith managed a speakers bureau while a graduatestudent at Syracuse University. Twelve people have signed with the bureau already. Tentatively scheduled topics include witchcraft, old time radio, ecology and drugs. Any student with information to share or apoint of view to present is welcome. Interested students may contact Smith at College Hall 203. MusicProfessors to Perform Two associate professors of music, Jacob Hamm, baritone and Robert Scandrett,piano, will perform in a song recital, 3 p.m. Sunday in Lecture Hall 4. Included in the program will be agroup of early English lute songs, Brahm's "Four Serious Songs," a group of French songs by Poulencand Faure and the final section will consist of music by several 19th century German composers.Graduation Events Two special events have been planned for Western's 1971 graduating class. On May22 there will be a senior banquet in the Viking Commons. Tickets, available at the Viking Union Desk, arefree for seniors, $3.75 for guests.

Editor: This past week two "walks" took place in the Bellingham area. One, Marchfor Life, opposed American involvement in Southeast Asia. The other, Walk for Development, aimed itssights on poverty, hunger and the "comfort of the afflicted." The two' enemies, war and hunger, have acommon endâ€”death! The March drew 1500 people, the vast majority of whom were college students.The Walk, on the other hand, attracted only 370 hardy souls, 25 per cent of this total being Western and Fairhaven students. My question is: Why and what caused this instant apathy? Could it be that onewas on a Wednesday and the other on a Saturday? Or could it be that one required little effort, while the other might actually have been work? Had half the Marchers walked on Saturday for only five miles at a nickel a mile, that would have meant an additional $150 for the Bellingham Day Care Center, theNooksack Indian Landbase renovation program, a n d Guatemalan peasant farmers. The possibility forraising even more money was there, b u t . . . . Well, Western, you talk about community relations, andyou talk about this, and you talk about that, and you talk, and talk, and t a l k . . . . Actions (continual,not an occasional token effort) speak louder than words. , . Stephen Gregorich class of 1970 Questions Rainier Ad Editor: I am surprised to see that the Western Front has accepted an advertisement fromthe Rainier Brewing Company and assisted in promoting that company's rather transparent effort toengender apathy toward bottle deposit laws. The poster in the May 7 issue, which super-imposesRainier Beer over "In God We Trust" and "Liberty" would lead one to believe that Rainier is making aserious effort in the recycling process and that somehow Rainier should be associated with flowers,hearts and patriotism. The fact remains that Rainier will pay a dazzling 25 cents for a full case of 24bottles If they are returned to the distributor on Iowa Street, and if they are the right kind of bottles (theystill make the throw-away varieties) and if they are returned during brief week-day hours. We areinstructed not to r e t u r n these containers to convenient taverns or food stores. In short, Rainier'sattempt to placate the public and law-makers is an affront to our intelligence; the Western Front shouldnot cooperate with this ludicrous campaign. Sam Porter Chairman Technology Editor's note: theRainier Beer recycling campaign is superficial, at best. But nevertheless it is a step in the right direction. This newspaper accepts all advertising in good tasteâ€”we do not feel that Rainier's advertising is inbad taste. Sorry, but the Front must have ad revenue to print t h e news. The student contribution paysfor the first four pages, and the remainder (often ranging to 12, 16 and 20 p a g e s ) comes from ouradvertisers. Nader Here Next Week Ralph Nader, the Consumer's Crusader, will speak at 3 p.m. nextWednesday in Carver gym on Environmental Hazards: Man-made and Man Remedied. Nader, who firstcame into the public spotlight when he published a book, Unsafe At Any Speed, that attacked the autoindustry, has been responsible for at least six major federal consumer protection laws. His work inconsumer protection ranges from having millions of defective cars recalled from the market to havingcertain additives taken from baby food. The crusading attorney has been described as the "U.S.'sToughest Customer" and the New York Times said, "what sets Nader apart is that he has moved beyondsocial criticism to effective political action." The lecture is being sponsored by the ProgramsCommission. Problem-Solving Course Local citizens will have an opportunity to take part in a problem-solving course this summer at Western. Sponsored by the Center for Continuing Studies, Citizens'Organizations in Community Problem-Solving will focus on regional problems. The class will studyvarious organizations such as service, reform and lobby-oriented structures. Citizens will learn how to use the organizations to bring about social changesâ€”"What are effective means for accomplishing what you want to do?" It is taught by George Drake, professor of sociology and meets six times, beginning June22. Contact the Center for Continuing Studies for registration forms. Parking Applications Parking permitapplications for next year are to be filled out in Edens Hall South Lobby Monday through June 3. Theapplications are to ensure that students get a parking space under the new point system which has beenestablished by the Parking Committee. For those who take the applications with them, they must beturned in to the Safety and Security Department no later than June 12. Safety and Security will mail lotassignments to people during the summer. Anyone who did not get an application in by that time willhave to buy a permiton a first-come, first-serve basis in the fall. Lot prices are $18 a quarter for all A, Band C lots; $10 a quarter for 26D and 21D and $4 for ID and 20D. Dean Selection Committee WesternCollege of Arts and Sciences may have to wait a little longer for a new dean. Some 63 names weresubmitted to the Dean'Selection Committee and committee chairman Alta Hansen said it probably won'tbe able to select a dean by the May 21 deadline set by President Charles Flora. Miss Hansen,associate professor of women's physical education, hopes that the committee will have arecommendation by the end of May. Biery to Lecture Galen Biery, Bellingham historian, will present aslide show of his collection of rare and historic photographs at 1:30 p.m. tomorrow in Lecture Hall 3. Theslide show, sponsored by the Friends of Wilson Library, will be followed by a narrated bus tour throughBellingham, Fairhaven, Whatcom and Sehome (which were combined to form present-day Bellingham).Student Services Directorships for student services are now open for applications according to ASPresident-elect Tod Sundquist. The positions open for the next year include sex information coordinator,legal aids director, drug information coordinator and tutorials coordinator, Sundquist said. Application can be made at the Associated Students office on the top floor of the Viking Union any time next week. Thedeadline for applications will probably be Friday, Sundquist said. Chess Master Here Today Robert Zuk,a chess master from Surrey, B.C., will appear in a simultaneous exhibition at 7 p.m. today in the VikingUnion Lounge. He will play any number of opponents with each individual gaining a definite timeadvantage over the master.

No easy task, considering the quality of some recent local productions. But last night, at Cabaret, I was asked only to leave mytroubles outside as the emcee welcomed me to his club to witness the dying breaths of Germany in1930. Sometime during the course of the evening the clock wound down and stopped, but I was. havingtoo good a time to notice. The price of admission just about covers the emcee's tip, who effortlessly.controls the proceedings with charm and suave. Michael Ingersoll never makes a slip, and gives theemcee an excitement and fun that becomes a dominant mood of the whole show. Mr. Ingersoll farexceeds the other dancing talent at the Kit Kat Club-eight lovely girls who all act divinely, but alas, theycouldn't dance their way out of a brauhaus. They're lots of fun to watch, but too many of the girls" show asevere lack of dance training, making them unequal to the precise demands of nightclub work. But BillTreadwell, playing the American writer, certainly is. His voice was strong enough to let me hear everyword clearly in the back of the music auditorium, a unique singing quality in this What they lack assingers the other principals more than compensate for as actors. Shelley Stockstill. is the world's sexiest singer, and I fell madly in love with Katherine Kack, who acts and sings very well indeed as a prostitutejust trying to earn a living. Miss Kack has won my best' supporting actress award. And the eloquence ofJane Nelson and Gregory Ross brings tears when a gift of pineapple is exchanged. But the whole show is too good to pick at like this. The many colorful sets, the costumes (or lack of them) on the girls, and animportant and provoking theme all help give Cabaret what it needs to carry us right back to pre-war Berlin. The 'quality may not be equal to Broadway, but then again, neither are the prices. Preview Photos ByDAVE SHERMAN 'Boys in Band' Plays May 23-26 The first totally student production of the year, Boysin the Band, begins a week-long run on campus beginning May 23 on the fourth floor theatre of the Viking Union. The modern, topical play, under the direction of senior theatre major George Mead, concernshomosexuality, but moreover deals with people, friends relating to one another and struggling tounderstand and accept themselves. The play's author, Mart Crowley, has captured a birthday party with"the boys." The all-male, nine-member cast, includes Dan Fuller (Harold), Joseph Grant (Donald), LarryHannon (Michael), Randy Hansen (Larry), James Holly (Alan), Mikael Jorgensen (Cowbody), EdwardShaw (Hank), and Brent West (Emory). Others involved in the Boys in the Band production include RickMark, assistant director; and Suzy Dowy, stage manager. Mead's initiative in selecting the new, aliveplay has set a precedent for other student directors on campus. "Radio advertisements, conceived bystudents, have opened Bellingham's ears to Emory's flitting voice and Harold's cackling laugh," Assistant Director Mark said. In addition, a local television station will explain the play's intent and its characterswith a panel discussion moderated by William Gregory, chairman of Western's Speech Department. The play will be presented in a three-quarter arena setting, Mark noted. The audience will be seated on threesides of Michael's living room where the birthday party unfolds. Only 100 persons will be allowed toattend the play each of the 8:15 p.m. performances May 23-26. The cast has been rehearsing eightweeks. / gt;0LÂ£-ISÂ£AR. coA/srxt/cr/OA/ m IVÂ£S(//ID W/THLOVE t CÂ£AFTX) JOr _ ~\' GRBEfJÂ£ME GY.

So stated Viking baseball coach Conrad Hamilton as his squad readied for_ their crucialEvergreen Conference (Evco) double-header tomorrow with Whitworth College at Spokane. Western iscurrently tied with Central for the league lead. Both have 6-4 records. While the Vikings are battling withthe Pirates, Central will be only a few miles away at Cheney taking on Eastern Washington State.Whitworth is a greatly improved ballclub and we respect them, said Hamilton, "but this is it and we feelcapable of taking them twice." Righthander Don Balke will start the first game for Western. The Vikingace has a 4-2 record and a flossy 1.05 earned run average. Another righthander Neil Crawford will pitchthe second game. Crawford seems fully recovered from a severely sprained ankle suffered three weeksago. If Crawford is unable to go the distance Hamilton indicated he may use Balke in relief. If a tie stillexists after this weekend's action the decision on how it will be broken will be up to the Evco's Executive Committee. Their decision will probably DON BALKE He'll start opener be one of either basing it onthe best season record of the teams involved or a play-off to be held some time next week at a neutralfield. Western is 14-8 on the year while Central is 10-12. In any case there will be no make-up ofcancelled games as each team has met the league stipulation of playing at least 10 league contests.However the decision is made, the top Washington team in the conference will meet the top NAIA District 1 independent in a play-off next weekend at the site of the Evco participant. The top independent willprobably be Lewisâ€”Clark Normal, who has a 15-15 overall record. The winner of the play-off willadvance to the Area play-offs scheduled for two weeks from today hosted by Oregon Tech at KlamathFalls. Pete Johnson leads Viking hitters with a .357 average. Ron Porterfield is batting .339- and topsthe club in runs batted in (16), runs scored (12) and hits (20). Balke's e.r.a. comes after 60 innings ofaction. Rick Shadle, freshman from Tacoma, has yet to allow an earned run in 12 2/3 innings, while RaySmith has been touched for only one in 13 1/3 frames. Spikers to Visit Central For Big Evco Dual Meet By KENT SHERWOOD Sports Editor Tomorrow is the day! The day that the Western track team hasbeen waiting for. The day when the Vikings face the Central Wildcats in Ellensburg in dual meet action."I'm thinking very positively about this meet," said Vik coach Dick Bowman, "and so is the entire team.We feel that we have a great chance of knocking them off this year." Central, the defending EvergreenConference (Evco) champ, has owned the crown for the last nine years. Earlier this season the Wildcatslost their first .dual meet in eight years to a very strong Oregon College squad. Last week in Ellensburg, Central defeated Portland State, 124-30, winning 16 out of 18 events and sweeping six of them. TheCats are balanced as they had only two double winners. Ray Columbo won the long and triple jumpswith leaps of 23-214 and 44-5, respectively. Sprinter Steve Slavens took both the 100 and 220-yd.dashes with respective times of 9.8 and 22.2. Other Central strong points are in the discus, high jump,javelin and shot put. Several interesting individual match-ups should take place. The biggest, perhaps, will be in the sprints between Central's Slavens and Terry Sayles and Western's Jim Magee and Mike Page.Slavens edged Magee in the Vancouver Relays two weeks ago. DICK BOWMAN Mike Vorce, the Vikstop intermediate hurdler, will renew a rivalry with the Wildcats' Mike Behrbaum. Vorce beat Behrbaum inVancouver, running a 54.0. Another big event will be the pole vault, where Western's Bill Long andCentral's Dave Morris will square off. Western should pick up points in the high hurdles with KenJohnson and Rich Nomini, and distance races with Kelly Stecker. "We've been waiting a long time forthis one," Bowman commented, "and I think we're ready. If we can get off to a fast start, and then splittheir scoring in their strong events, I'm sure we'll beat them." Vik cindermen who have been improvingand could well be surprising factors in the meet are hurdler Randy Payton, miler Fred New, shot puttersJim Wilcox and John Smith and pole vaulter Wes Bush. Back in action for Western will be triple-jumpand high-jumper Mark Salzman. The freshman from Tacoma's Franklin-Pierce High School suffered aseparated shoulder in the Simon Fraser meet three weeks ago. A Viking win in Ellensburg would setWestern as prime contenders for the Evco crown along with Oregon College in the Evco meet to be heldnext weekend in OCE's hometown of Monmouth, Ore. But the Evco meet is still a week away. It mightas well be years away as, for the Vik spikers, the entire season is centered on THE day when Westernvisits Ellensburg. Smith to Talk at 'W Club Feast University of Washington wrestling coach Jim Smithwill be the main speaker at the "W" Club's annual All-Sports banquet to be held Wednesday, June 2 at 8p.m., at the Viking Commons Dining Hall.

Security has declared the pigs ; and chickens, that have resided ,for three months in an enclosed ; area between Fairhaven and Buchanan Towers, to be in violation of theCity Health Code, Resident staff member Tim Place brought his pigs on campus last quarter as part ofthe administration's new "self sufficiency skills" program in the residence halls. Its aim is to. acquaintstudents with everyday occurrences that most people are alienated from in today's society. The areawas eventually to become a mini-farm, and garden, complete with goats and rabbits. Although campussecurity warned Place last quarter that the pigs violated a city ordinance, no action was taken. Thisweek a directive was issued to assistant dean Dick Norris at Fairhaven, by acting provost W. A.Bultmann, stating that the code will be enforced by security, and the animals must be removed. TheFairhaven Policy Board approves of the farming activity as an "educational endeavor." Norris said thatalternatives to removal of the pigs are being looked into. "Other schools keep animals a*s part of theiracademic programs. Even though they are against city health rules, the colleges manage to modifyconditions in such a way as to make them legal." Security officer Charles Page stated that domesticanimals other than "common household pets" are strictly prohobited in high density population areas,such as Fairhaven. He added that other schools who keep animals probably* keep them in less denselypopulated "suburban" areas. Norris says he intends to call the City Health Officer in to. see if the pigpen area could be modified to make the pigs legal. However, if the cost of improvements is too high, they would have to go. So far, the cost of housing the pigs has come to about $3.50. Safety officer CharlesMartin said that Fairhaven could keep a farm if the students could find a suburban location for it, andreceived permission from the Planning Commission, County Health Department, and City AnimalControl. At the present, no such place can be found, Norris said. Student injured in lab accident AWestern chemistry student received sulfuric acid burns on his face and arms as the result of an accident that occurred while he was doing undergraduate research in a Haggard Hall chemistry lab Wednesday.James Larson was treated at St. Luke's Hospital emergency room where he had been taken followingthe accident by Robert Holland, of the chemistry stock room staff. After treatment Larson, a seniorchemistry major, was released for further treatment at the student health service. Joseph Crook,chairman of the chemistry department, said that Larson had been wearing protective goggles at the timeof the accident. "The goggles were really a mess," Crook said. If Larson had not been wearing them theacid would have undoubtedly gone into his eyes, he added. The accident occurred "sometime during the lunch hour" on Wednesday, Crook said. Larson was released from St. Luke's at 12:55 p.m. followingemergency treatment. Inside... Whatcom CC explored The college has no large buildings; it prefersusing community resources. See pg. 7.

Security has declared that theanimals are in violation of the City Health Code and must be removed. The area occupied by the pigs willeventually become a mini-farm and garden, complete with goats and rabbits. Student government election draws low voter turnout Cathi Rafferty was elected AS Board of Directors secretary-treasurer; and HeidiHenken, Steve Mellroth and Duff Wilson were elected AS Board of Directors at-large'in the specialelection Wednesday. Two hundred forty-two students cast their votes in the election, which amounts toabout three per cent of the students enrolled at Western this quarter. Duff Wilson said the low turn-out at the polls and the lack of campaigning exhibits "gross apathy on the part of the students and thecandidates." The AS board needed a mandate from the students, he said. .Heidi Henken said thestudents do not feel touched by student government. Students may have complaints, she said, but theydo not know what channels exist for making changes; they do not know what student government can do for them. Cathi Rafferty said students obviously are not interested in student government. She said sheran because she wants to learn how the college is run and because she feels she can do a good job assecretary and treasurer. Lack of communication between the students and student government was theproblem most often mentioned by the 12 candidates running for the AS board positions. Steve Mellroth'sspecial interest has been the establishment of an FM radio station at Western. Although the electionturn-out was small, 97 per cent of those who voted were in favor of the FM station. Besides the surveyquestion of the FM station, students were also asked to answer a survey question on busserviceâ€”whether every student should be assessed $1.75 for free bus service, or whether only thosewho want the service should be assessed a maximum of $6. Sixty-three per cent wanted only thosepersons who want the service to be assessed. The purpose of the AS Board of Directors, according toits by-laws, is to have general charge of the affairs, funds and property of the Associated Students. Theboard has delegated much of this management to councils, such as the Student Services Council. Oneboard member sits on each council. The AS board is the official spokesman for the Associated Students. ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 2 - Page 2 ---------- 2 Western Front Friday./ R}brgary lt; 2â€ž T9.73 Faculty members to receive $515 raiseTRANSFORMATIONâ€”Members of self-study* discuss educational alternatives. Self-study designed toraise level of awareness by JANICE PERRY One word is read and spoken most often in Omega 224, the self-study office. The word is "transformation"â€”transformation from a stagnant life style. "A lot ofpeople are abusing their lives in stagnancy and boredomâ€”there is a low energy crisis," said HarveyStone, director of self-study. The program's initial main impetus was drug education. The area of drugs isnow approached by giving students meaningful experiences, so that drugs would not be necessary.However, Stone would Uke to see a group investigating the benefits of good drugs. This would serve oneaspect of transformation. Another study concerned with this deals with consciousness; and another, inSigma, is concerned with a totaEy different area of transformation, that of nutrition and right foods. Thescope is unlimited. "It's difficult to present self-study to people," said Stone, "because it'smultidemensional." Woodworking is a different dimension, and is led by Barry Cruz resident director ofNash. Other creative works come from self-studies on batik in Mathes and sewing and guitar playing inHigginson. Money for any materials needed for projects comes from the $80,000 grant given to self-study by the government for two years. A few groups have self-expression as their basic goal. Non-verbalcommunication is being explored in Omega and on the musical and dramatic level, a self-study group istaking on the form of a road show, "for all the crazy freaks around who want to exhibit their music andtheater trips on an unsuspecting town audience in eastern Washington," according to Erik Nelsen, group organizer. A group of girls in Mathes are exploring the expression of women in today's world byexamining what the Bible says about it. Self-study groups examine the world about them, but in adifferent sense than traditional education. "How can one study the survival of our civilizationacademically," Stone asks. "An innovative program is necessary." "Education shouldn't remove one fromthe world," Stone said. "It should set one right in the middle of it." A group of self-studiers are "right inthe middle" of the Lummi community, tutoring the children to help alleviate ignorance. Another group ofstudents is breaking into the middle of the world of senior citizens, each student befriending an oldperson, and spending time with him during the week. This group meets in Buchanan Towers under theleadership of Mike Bessinger. Concern with the environment is another direction pursued by self-study.The dormitory environment is being examined too. Students in Omega are now approaching SagaWomen laying plans for April symposium -Planning meetings for the April 2-5 women's symposium arebeing held every Wednesday at 4 p.m. in VU 222. The workshop will be centered on alternative vocations and political opportunities for women. The main speaker will be Cissy Farenthold, Texas legislator andreformer who was also nominated for vice president at the Democratic convention in 1972. Also featuredwill be women in many different positions. Everyone is welcome at the Wednesday planning.sessions,JLdeas and assistance.are needed... with, the idea of having cooking faculties in the dorm. It is also possible that students could paint the dorms, or clean them themselves. S e l f - s t u d y has been accused of non-authoritative education, since students lead student groups. Nelsen said, "The powersthat be are really coming down hard on the innovative parts of education. We're not out to hurt them.We're only trying to provide a' supportive environment." "The really dangerous thing," Stone stressed, "isthat the university is no longer serving as a forum for free thinking." He went on to say that energetic,concerned people are leaving the universities. They are in exile. Stone observed that Western has beenstaying traditional while society is changing. He points at the Cambodian occupation with Americantroups as the starting point of the change. This was followed by political assassinations, drugs, newsexuality, to a new spiritual^ move, to a whole earth concern. Stone regrets that mass communication on campus is difficult. Few students heard of the Vietnam films put on by self-study. The office offers avariety of services to all students, including: tapes on a new consciousness; drug information; a stafferwho helps women with their problems; and a Life Goals Workshop, a retreat that takes place about oncea month to expound on personal problems. Outsiders urged to aid prisoners Dennis Williams, ErnieChandler and Gary Tolliver, residents of Washington State Reformatory at Monroe, urged students to getan understanding of and get involved in prison reform at the second annual Prison Reform Symposiumheld on campus Monday. The panel spoke of life inside the prison, the difficulties of finding a jobafterward and how involvement by persons outside prison in prison-sponsored volunteer programs canhelp. "It seems like no one cares about you once you're behind the walls," Williams said. And once out,he said, "we have it three times as hard as others because we have that X behind us." Getting a job after serving time is the greatest concern. The panel urged that people think of ideas to help felons beproductive once they are out and suggested participation at some level. In this way, Williams said,society will gain by cutting down the hate and animosity that individuals build up in prison. OneFairhaven College student, Bart Riney, reveiled his plan to build a doughnut shop, dubbed the DomedDoughnut, at the Oak and Indian streets to be operated exclusively by ex-offenders. He plans furtherprograms at Western in the future to help train ex-felons. W.A. Harris, of the College of Ethnic Studies,suggested people make themselves heard in getting the proposed early-release study program going oncampus and urged a half-way house in Bellingham for parolees. Lou Ray Barham, a Western coed whohelped organized the symposium, is among a group of Western students which travels each Thursday to Monroe reformatory to take part in volunteer programs between 7 and 9 p.m. ' ' The volunteers take partin Indian and Black cultural sessions, awareness groups and a drug study program. The student groupschedules the visits ahead of time with Roger Buttons, a director of the .yolunteer.prpgr.anTi.at,Monroe,Each member of Western's faculty will get a $515 yearly pay increase if the expected four per centfaculty salary raise is approved by the state legislature this month. Faculty Council reached thatdecision Wednesday at a special meeting. The $515 figure is computed by taking four per cent of thetotal expenditure for faculty salaries and giving an equal part of that total to each faculty member. TheFaculty Council's recommendation that the four per cent increase be divided to give all faculty the sameamount of money will go to the Board of Trustees for approval at its next meeting. The Council hopesthe Board will approve the recommendation before the bill is passed by the legislature so that the pay raises can be implemented immediately. Retroactive pay raises to faculty were ruled illegal earlier thisyear by the state attorney general. The Council hopes to have the plan ready for implementation as soon as the bill passes so that none of the raise will be lost. The proposal to give "equal dollars" was favored by the Faculty Council over a bill to give each faculty member an increase of four per cent of theircurrent salary. Objections to the "equal dollars" plan centered on the need to give the greatest raise tothose of higher rank as a reward. Richard Thompson of the psychology department said that giving anequal amount of money instead of a percentage of the salary "robs the morale" of the faculty members.Eunice Faber, of the foreign language department, termed the four per cent raise proposed by thelegislature a "cost of living" increase that should be distributed evenly. Should students bargain withfaculty members? Student participation in faculty collective bargaining is being fought by several facultyand faculty-oriented groups. Acting on a recommendation from the University of Washingtonadministration, the UW senate voted to present an amended collective bargaining bill which would allowtwo students to sit on the bargaining sessions as observers. The original bill allowed s t u d e n t s to sit on the management's side of the bargaining table as negotiators. Members of the American Federationof Teachers (AFT) and American Association of University Professors (AAUP) both agree in principlewith the move. Kaye Faulkner, local president of the AFT, said student interests could best beprotected by allowing faculty representatives to negotiate for them. The chairman of the stateconference of the AAUP, Ben Gashman, said "to put the student on the employer side of the bargainingtable would be destructive of the educational process." "Students and faculty are not enemies, they arepartners in the educational process," he added. Gashman said, however, that the AAUP would notoppose having students sit in on talks Club to talk about nursing "Advantages of Breastfeeding toMother and Baby" will be the topic of the next meeting of the Bellingham chapter of La Leche LeagueInternational. It will meet Monday at 7:30 p.m. at the Congregational Church, Cornwall Ave. and D St.All interested women are invited. Pregnant women and women nursing babies are encouraged to attend. The local chapter is part of an international organization to promote breastfeeding. La Leche claims thatbreastfeeding promotes faster recovery of the mother after childbirth and decreases her chances ofgetting breast cancer. Breast feeding is also hailed for preventing constipation and promoting a ';feeling;of love"; f lt;tt th6 .bdbjf. JIM KENNEDY when it is "appropriate for student input." Western ASPresident Jim Kennedy, reacting to the proposed amendment, said that student interests would not beignored. "With collective bargaining, you start from scratch. Faculty freedoms and responsibilities areno longer taken for granted," he said. He added that "student role in governance would not be taken forgranted," and most student leaders around the state would protest the action. Ann Johnson, UWassociated students president, said "I don't think this will allow us to protect our interests at all." UWPresident Charles E. Odegaard told faculty members at the senate meeting, "If you go before the publicand only argue for your vested rights, all I can say is God help you and God help education." If students are allowed to p a r t i c i p a t e in bargaining sessions, Kennedy would appoint individuals prepared tobargain. "Pragmatically it would be a good idea to have someone familiar with bargaining," in the eventthat the amendment is squashed, Kennedy said. Negotiators representing student interests would haveto be volunteers because state funds could not be used to pay them, he said. The revised bill contains a provision prohibiting strikes, but an effort by faculty members to change the no-strike clause is.expected.some..time this week. ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 2 - Page 3 ---------- Friday, February 2, 1973 Western Front 3 Veterans group hopes for honored cease-fire FIRST FRIDAYOFF-Howard Harris who stood outside the Federal Building each Friday afternoon for over six years, plans to devote his time now to the Rufus Jones School. Vigil over Harris ends demonstrations but notobjections to war "Hopeful but still hesitant" was the reaction of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War(VVAW) to the cease-fire in Vietnam. John Peterson, VVAW member; said he hoped that the agreement would be honored by all parties. Gerry Wolfe said he viewed the cease-fire as "a positive step towardsending (American) imperialism" and hoped the agreement was an nonorable one. It's difficult to judge the agreement, Petersen said. The terms haven't been spelled out. "I want to see it happen before I stopholding my breath," he said. Wolfe said that while American troops in Vietnam are leaving that country,the United States still has troops in Thailand, Europe and Korea, and the 7th fleet off the Vietnamesecoast. "There is still a lot to be done. The philosophy that depends on using armed force to settle worldconflicts must be discredited, he said. VVAW has many other goals besides settling the Indochinaconflict. The national organization plans to work for: -Abolishment of the Uniform Code of Military Justice. This would give servicemen and women the same rights as contained in the Bill of Rights and theConstitution. â€”The end of racism in the military and in America. â€”Only one kind of discharge. Atpresent, Wolfe said that a number of blacks are being given general discharges because some of themfail to pass tests satisfactorily. â€”An investigation of American war crimes in Vietnam. â€”The end ofAmerican imperialism throughout the world. The public must be made to realize they are as guilty as the soldiers and the politicians, Wolfe said. We must recognize our mistakes, become peaceful people andhelp rebuild Vietnam. Wolfe said VVAW is trying to get the Veterans Administration (VA) to realize thatPost-Vietnam Syndrome (PVS) is a reality. PVS are emotional psychological changes veterans gothrough as a result of their war experiences. The VA is not responsive to the needs of Veterans, Wolfesaid. There are not enough programs for treating drug problems. Waiting periods can be up to threemonths. The Marine Corps gives a dishonorable discharge to drug addicts, Wolfe said. This makes itWINTER SOLDIER-Gerry cease-fire with hope. Wolfe greets impossible for the veteran to receive anybenefits or treatment. VVAW is planning to change its name to "Winter Soldier". The name is taken from Thomas Paine's writing. In 1776 he wrote: "The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in thiscrises, shrink from the service of his country." To thine own self be true. This is the philosophy thatHoward Harris, of Western's s o c i o l o g y / a n t h r o p o l o g y department has lived for the last sixyears. Each Friday he held a peaceful demonstration in front of Bellingham's Federal Building p r o t e s t i n g America's involvement in the Vietnam war. "I have been guided by my religious beliefs," he said."It doesn't matter what other people think of you if you know Degree fees due in March Candidates forMarch graduation must pay degree and certificate fees by March 2.

Harris, a Quaker, said, "I've taken part in various activities for the last 40 years." He wasa conscientious objector during World War II. The Vietnam ceasefire ended his demonstrations, but nothis objections to war. "We're still bombing Laos and we still have military forces in Thailand. No, I'm nothappy yet." Harris, who began his six-year d e m o n s t r a t i o n "out of frustration," has no plans atthe m o m e n t for f u t u re demonstrations. Instead, he is devoting his energy to the Rufus JonesSchool, an educational institution devoted to respecting "the worth and the divine hopes inherent in ourbeing as men." The school "operates in the Quaker conviction that love for another requires first of allcomplete respect for him as a person, and then the faith that . . . he has in his inner being the seed ofgrowth toward his own personal and social perfection." Founded in Bellingham in 1967, the Rufus JonesSchool is the result of three decades of o b s e r v a t i o n , study and experimentation by Harris andhis wife, Rosemary. "The students learn because learning is a good thing," he said, "not because of asupposed need to excell in competition." "We never punish the kids," Harris continued. "If you punish achild you may stop him from doing what he was doing, but what does he learn? He learns that it's okayto hit smaller people and get away with it. "That's a lesson President1 Nixon learned and used itthroughout the war.

The "egotist" was Henry Kissinger, U.S. presidential aide and a one-time professorat Harvard. Ziegler, once a political science major at Harvard, would once in a while bump intoKissinger. One opportunity was at a cocktail party, and the other was while Kissinger was walking onthe campus headed for the airport to catch a plane to Washington, D.C. The man was not veryaccessable, said Ziegler. He was constantly dealing with very important people in different parts of theworld as well as in Washington but was well liked by most of the faculty. Often, according to Ziegler,Kissinger was a name dropper. After returning from an extensive trip Kissinger would relate the coursesubject matter he was teaching to the influential people he talked to while away. "You just couldn't helpbut be over awed," said Ziegler. A l t h o u g h very busy, Kissinger was considered to be tough in thecourses that he taught. "Once, while I was a professor's assistant, one of my student's papers wasevaluated Kissinger and given an excellent rating," said Ziegler. "I was kind of proud of that," he said.Ziegler attempted to correlate how Kissinger appeared to him and how he would appear to a campusstudent here at Western. "Jerry Flora could be very much the same kind of person," said Ziegler. "He isa very prestigious person to the extent that he has l i t t l e time for casual conversation. For example,you couldn't just walk into his office and start talking to him like you are with me now," said Ziegler. "Toavoid this, Kissinger had a row of secretaries you had to go through first," he added. Ziegler stated thatdespite Kissinger's zeal for ego, he couldn't think of a more responsible and "hard line" person than theHenry Kissinger that negotiated peace in Paris. "He doesn't give in easy," stated Ziegler, "and he'scertainly no fool." Whatcom Demo chairman calls for local involvement _, ROBERT NEALE There is an unbalanced amount of attention focused on national political issues, says Tim Douglas, and he is tryingto do something about it. Douglas, Assistant Dean of Students for Academic Affairs, is WhatcomCounty's Democratic party chairman. He hopes to involve people in local politics because he feels it gives them an opportunity to achieve more contact with politicians. "Face to face contact is a different type of contact from waiting three to four weeks for a reply from your congressman," he said. If there is an issue of local importance, a voter can reach his county officials and "go in and do something about it."Douglas sees his function of county chairman as being to "increase awareness of individuals to what their role in government can be." Douglas and the Central Democratic Committee are organizing sub-committees to analyze voting patterns, issues and resolutions and to seek candidates to fill emptypositions. Douglas has been active in Bellingham political circles for about two and a half years. He wasfirst elected to precinct committeeman in 1970. He said that he filed for the position in order to "get abetter feel for how the political system worked on a local level." He took over as county chairman lastJune and found it a "significant time commitment in the summer and fall of an election year."Fortunately," Douglas commented, "my family was very tolerant and understanding. In fact my wife wasinvolved in the party, which helped considerably." The position of county chairman has benefittedDouglas by giving him the opportunity to meet many different people in the county. He said that it is easy to be isolated from what other people are like, and it is "good for me to get out and meet them."Douglas said there are two groups of people turned off by politics: the old and young. Older people saythey have had their time and feel unneeded, he said. There are "a lot of wasted human resources insenior citizens, and we should take advantage of them." There are two reasons young people are' turnedoff by politics, Douglas said. "It is hard for them to participate in something meaningful because they arealways on the move. They haven*tany roots connected to any location." He added that there is a certainamount of disillusionment in COUNTY CHAIRMAN-Tim Douglas feels both young and old people can beturned off by politics. His function is to increase their awareness of what their roles in government canbe. younger voters, and they "tend to throw up then-hands and say forget it." Douglas blames theVietnam war for separating citizens into two groups. He claims that all issues seem to be measured inthis way. "The people who are saying things about others usually just don't have enough contact with thegroups they're talking about." He hopes his position can help "make possible interaction of people withdifferent points of view." Statewide, Douglas sees this year's big issues as tax reform and opengovernment provisions. He feels that the state is ready to accept tax reform if it's explained becausetaxes are a complicated issue. He also expects some action on Washington's open governmentprovisions, specifically Initiative 276. "The people want a government that will listen to them, but they also have to see some signs about holding politicians accountable," he said. Douglas said both the .Democrats and Republicans are working toward more open parties. He added that there are a lot ofyoung people involved, but it is "not exclusively a college thing." "It's pretty good," he commented, "thewhole party worked for an open party to get more divergent points of view." 'Year of Ox' celebratedtomorrow . The Year of the Ox, 4671, will be celebrated by many Chinese-Americans tomorrow. TheChinese New Year is the last and strongest tie between the Americanized Chinese, and their homeland,according to Western student Karen Sakuma. This year the Chinese New Year falls on Saturday, Feb.3. The Chinese New Year takes place somewhere between Jan. 21 and Feb. 19 according to ourcalendar. The Chinese holiday is based on the old calendar which in turn is based on the Lunar Year,thus explaining the different dates each year. The Chinese New Year is a time of visiting friends andrelations, paying old debts and feasting. The feasting and visiting sometimes go on for fifteen days, butmost people cannot afford more than three or four days. The New Year is also a time of paying respects to one's ancestors, parents and friends. At the New Year another year is added to a person's age.According to an old Chinese custom, a baby is one year old at birth. This is the result of the universalChinese desire to appear old, venerable and wise. One more aspect of the Chinese New Year tradition is the respect shown Tso Kwan, the kitchen god. His picture hangs in the kitchen, and he takes notes on all that happens in the house throughout the year. On the 24th day of the twelfth month, a feast isspread in his honor. Sometimes honey is spread on his lips so he will remember only the good thingsthat have happened. At other times wine is poured over his head so he will become drowsy and forgetany bad that has happened. Finally a match is lit and touched to the picture. Legend has it that as thepicture burns, Tso Kwan goes off in a chariot of fire to report to the Lord of Heaven. ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 2 - Page 5 ---------- Friday, February 2, 1973 Western Front 5 the - western front AÂ£ American At, 'Apple Pie? Nixon isstill budgeting war Only a week after the announcement of a cease-fire in Vietnam, President Nixon hit us with another 'bomb'... the budget. By raising the defense budget by $4.7 billion while cutting back social welfare programs, Nixon has given the American people notice of his priorities during his "era of peace." Certainly Nixon's call for a tight spending ceiling and no tax increases is commendable, but his priorities should be moving from keeping the U.S. as a world policeman to concentrating on domestic problems.Nixon boosted the budget for the space program by $75 million as well as increasing defense while heproposed: â€”Abolishing the Office of Economic Opportunity and leaving financing for care of the needyto the discretion of local authorities. â€”Ending the program of economic development for depressedareas. â€”Shutting off new funds for college student loans through the National Defense Education Act.â€”Stopping the federally financed public service jobs for hard-core unemployed. And the list goes on. IfCongress doesn't perform its constitutional duties of deciding which programs should bear the weight ofbudget cutbacks, this country won't be much better off domestically than it was during the peak of thewar. Who are the real buggers? Did the big one get away? James McCord and Gordon Liddy were found guilty Wednesday of political spying in the Watergate case, but are they the real culprits? Is it likely that in the highly organized Committee to Re-elect the President, McCord and Liddy were solely responsiblefor making such crucial decisions as to bug or not to bug? Prior to the November elections, justice in the Watergate affair was a slow-moving force. Those who called it to national attention were accused ofmaking a big deal out of it for political motives. But now that the election is over and political motives aregone, can we or will we find out the full truth behind this espionage? It will be interesting to see, with theelections behind us and the haunting "four more years" in front of us, just how far Congress will be able to trace this one back before the "powers that be" decide that its time to close the case. tbe-western frontstaff EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160 EDITOR: Jack Broom MANAGING EDITOR: Rodger Painter PRODUCTION: Duff Wilson SPORTS: Howard Scott COPY EDITORS: JamesHeitzman, Rahn Lahti, Dennis Mansker, Judy Mooers, Dennis Ritchie AD MANAGER: Richard RoffGRAPHICS: Elsi Vassdal BUSINESS MANAGER: Terri Whitney PHOTO EDITOR: Robert NealePHOTOGRAPHERS: Bob McLauchlan, Thomas Schultz, Jim Thomson REPORTERS: ChristineAnderson, Scott Anderson, Rob Baldwin, Alan Bauer, John Brewington, Jim Brooks, Sonja Brown, DougCockburn, Alice Collingwood, Bill Dietrich, Nicholas Gardner, Victoria Hamilton, John Harris, BruceHayes, Rochelle Henderson, Heidi Henken, Deborah Henry, Tom Home, O.K.

Stannard Jr. | letters...^ Asquatty rock complaint Editor, Western Front: I should like to register my complaint of the newmonument that has been erected between Wilson Library and Haggard Hall. In fact, I would like toregister my complaint of the squatty piece of rock on the other side of Wilson Library and the nut looking for a screw on Red Square. Before I am lambasted as an insensitive cretin who does not trulyappreciate the aesthetic value and symbolism of these monuments, I should like to qualify myselffurther. It seems incredible to me that in this day of concern for the ecology, we should subsidize theseprojects that extract resources from the earth and offer nothing in return. I know of no one that derivessome inspiration from these objects. It would seem that whatever benefit is derived from the monuments pales before such urgent needs as more and better 'teachers (or at least keeping some of the ones wenow have), financial aid for students, more library books and other needed school services. I realize that it's too late to do anything about the monstrosities we already have. Sometimes our society has a habit of getting stuck with our own monuments. I'm only suggesting that the next time, for those who wouldstill insist on something more visual for all to see, why not plant a tree? It's inexpensive, nice to look at,and at least has a-practical advantage of producing oxygen. Robert Johnson Political Science Bookreview lacked depth Editor, Western Front: This is a short complaint on the book review offered us last -issue on "The Harrad â€¢Experiment." I am a little surprised at your reviewer's datedness and lack ofdepth. "The Harrad Experiment" is an extremely shallow, unrealistic book written for mostly high school-age people. Indeed the whole thing is melodramatic trash like "Love Story" or some other pulp for themass consumer. Rimmer is not a good writer and does not make you feel a part of Harrad, but ratherwants to sell you a book hidden b e h i n d some boring philosophical theme. I suggest to the reviewerthat he/she read Rollo May's book on sexuality "Love and Will" which is much better even though it hasits flaws, too. And I pray that I am never ". . . expected to eventually have sex freely and regularly" witha roommate I happened to be thrown in with. Could sex reach a more boring level? Thank you.

Only 242students voted for three A.S. directors Wednesday; 8,000 didn't give a damn. Do you know what's going on? Do you care? Non-voters authorized student government to remain weak and confused. Theycrippled any concept of a cogent student will. They undermined any legitimacy their representativesmight have had. They backed student government up against a.wall. In clear, passive tones, theyspoke. They said, "Hey, man, who cares? They can do their, thing, I'm doing mine." "I don't have thetime right now.": What would happen if the A.S. directors told you what you told them? Would you givea damn? â€¢ Student government wants to do things for you: student employment, entertainment, drug and sex information, FM radio, much, much more. You're given them an inoperable mandate at thepolls. You've disabled them. M a y b e s t u d e nt representatives can carry on without you. But they'llnever be the same.

"Going to doctors is often a degrading and humiliating experience." by PATT JOHNSON As a result of embarrassing experiences and high medical costs, many women are now looking for ways to get high-quality medical care that is free of moralization and discrimination. At Country Doctor, aSeattle women's clinic, the workers have tried to make the medical experience more human andpersonal. One way in which this is done is when a pregnancy test is made, the woman can watch thetest conducted and ask questions to which she receives straightforward answers. Chris Laing, a studenthelping to organize a Bellingham clinic said, CiGoing to doctors is often a degrading and humiliatingexperience." She feels that Country Doctor is free of this humiliating atmosphere, thereby making themedical experience more effective. Not all patients at the Seattle clinics are BASKIN40BBINS ICECREAM STORE HAVE ONE OF OUR DOUBLE DIP SUNDAES IN YOUR CHOICE OF 31 FLAVORSTHE STEPHENS' 619 EAST HOLLY -BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON 98225 PHONE - (206) 733-9982feminists, Laing said. Many women had just come to feel that a visit to a doctor need not be unpleasant. There is no clinic of this sort in Bellingham, although action is being taken to start one. The first step isto acquire some of the basic knowledge essential to making it work. A free, twelve-week educationalseries in gynecology geared for women who intend to be volunteers in women's clinics is being offered by four Seattle clinics: Aradia, Country Doctor, Fremont and the Open Door. Enrollment from Bellinghamwas so high that, because of transportation problems, the series had to be limited to women who wouldhelp start a Bellingham clinic. One objective of the course is to teach women how to check their bodiesfor illness so they can quickly detect something wrong. "Breast cancer is the most common form ofcancer in women," Laing said, "and most cases are discovered first by the women themselves." Theclass in session now is focused on women who want to start or work in a women's clinic. It differs from aself-help course in that it contains more medical education and deals with running a clinic. It concernsitself not so much with the mechanics of the operation as with trying to learn how to build therelationships that create trust between a patient and doctor. Laing explained the hopes of the Bellingham women in the class: "We will have a non-sexist clinic, staffed by female workers, that treats women aspeople; that is seriously concerned with their health; and that encourages women to learn how theirbodies function by answering their questions and offering classes in self-help." The educational series inSeattle is now in its third week. After the twelfth week, the women from Bellingham hope to be ready tostart actual work on the clinic in Bellingham. Laing feels optimistic about the prospects for getting theclinic in operation. She said she had already received many offers of help and support from interestedpeople. Although at first it was only a hope and a dream, now "it's a .reality," Laing said.

New major offered here., religi by JANICE PERRY It is now possible to have a major focusing on religious studies at Western. The new religious studiesprogram can be taken through the general studies department or Fairhaven. "I think that Western is longoverdue for a religious studies program," said Ken Freeman, Dean of Fairhaven. Demonstration ofstudent interest in thel program will be seen this spring through an introductory course in religion taughtby William Stoever of general studies. Stoever is qualified with a Bachelor of Divinity degree from YaleUniversity. The existence of the new discipline is due largely to the efforts of the Rev. Rod MacKenzie,from the Church of Christ, and minister at Campus Christian Ministry. "There are a number of statecolleges with very fine religious studies programs," MacKenzie said. For example, Central WashingtonState has a religious studies program in the philosophy department. Elbert M. Beamer of general studies said, "There were a number of us around who felt that the campus community could benefit from areligious studies program. The general studies liberal arts major was designed last year so that thestudent can make such a proposal." A catalogue of the program has been sent to department residencehalls, and churches. It may It's true we can't get at the heart of the matter in academic life. Religion isn'tjust a head trip' be obtained at the Campus Christian Ministry (CCM) house on High Street. The newcourse to be offered next spring introduces this program with subjects ranging from salvation to currentinterest in the occult. The purpose of the four-credit course, General Studies 297, is two-fold according to Stoever. GS 297 will first introduce people to the material of religious studies, such as texts andreligious thinkers. The second object will be to expose students to various approaches to studying these materials, for example, from social, historical, and theological viewpoints. The material for the course will deal with Eastern and Western religious traditions, Stoever said. Mysticism, personal enlightenment,myth, symbol and ritual will be explored. The religious studies program is just as new as GS 297,although talk on it began about a year ago, \MacKenzie, said .that after the idea was CO kii fai 60 ErHi CO ca Fr sei an St: rel ac ca lif ex rel ph m; cc to dil A S lt; ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 2 - Page 7 ---------- Friday, February 2, 1973 Western Front Whatcom college serves, uses community Specialization isgoal of classes by STEPHEN NEFF The upraised open palm is a traditional sign of friendship among the coastal Indians. It is not inappropriate that this is the symbol chosen by Whatcom Community College,since its goal is to be a friend to each of the communities it serves. The college was founded in 1967when the state legislature held an extraordinary session during which 22 community college districtswere formed. Prior to this, junior colleges, as the two year institutions were called, were part of thecommon school districts in their own areas. Until 1970, the Ferndale-based college existed only onpaper, with a board that met once a year to make plans for when the college would start functioning.Once the college became a reality, with a staff for administration and teaching, it became apparent thatthe demand for services from the college was going to outstrip the abilities of the college to provide thoseservices. As people realized what the college could provide in the way of instruction, they beganrequesting special programs to be handled by the college. Now the college is teaching such specializedtopics as Fire Technology for volunteer fire departments and an Emergency Medical Technician coursefor ambulance personnel to be trained like paramedics. These types of classes are short term and highly. specialized and serve a specific function in the community. In this respect they are different fromclasses held at most colleges, like Western, whose end goal is a general education usually ending in adegree and whose classes last for a full academic year. This is not to say that Whatcom CommunityCollege does not have any classes of an academic nature. The goal of the college is to divide itsattention roughly into thirds: one-third academic, FRIENDSHIP-The upraised open palm symbolizes theWhatcom Community College's goal to be friends with all communities. one-third vocational and one-third of the special community types mentioned. In order to better serve the communities the college is apart of, they have chosen to be in the forefront of a new concept in education. While many colleges begin their lives in humble surroundings one of the highest priorities is usually a large or impressive classroomstructure. Whatcom Community College started life in an old doctors office, and it is there that the mainadministrative offices remain today. Public Information Director for the college, Marilyn Mahlberg;explained it this way. "We have no edifice complex. We have no major buildings because we have beenable to find all the physical facilities we need in the communities we serve." As an example someclasses are held in public school buildings in Ferndale, Bellingham and Lynden. This is especially true for classes requiring laboratory facilities such as chemistry and biology. Other classes are held incommunity places appropriate to the subject being taught: A real estate class taught in a real estateoffice, a course in upholstery at an upholstery shop and a sewing class taught in a fabric store. This isthe essence of the educational revolution. No centralized campus, with no major classroom buildings,means money allocated for operation of the college can be spent on instructional materials and teacherssalaries rather than being diverted to capital projects. Another reason for maintaining a decentralizedcampus is the attitude of the college coming to the community rather than the community going to thecollege. This attracts people from the community that would otherwise not attend classes. Studies haveindicated that many adults will not attend classes in a formal structure because they feel intimidated.However, these same people have a desire to further their education. Thus it is essential that theeducational facilities be kept as informal as possible. Public education's goals criticized in discussion ofbook of quarter by DENNIS MANSKER If school is dead, are the students now enrolled just whistling ina graveyard? That the question y t he discussion in the of the was e x a m i n e d b book-of-the-quarter panel last week Presentation Room Wilson Library. They were talking about "School is Dead:Alternatives in Education" by Everett Reimer, a work which contends that the institution of publiceducation in America is a bureaucracy c o n c e r n e d more with perpetuating itself than with the gt;studies it was just a matter of getting the right pie together." ting committee sent out a letter to all berssurveying their courses.

Scott,documents librarian and book-of-the-quarter committee chairman. Calling herself a "reluctant reviewer,"Carroll described the book as saying nothing new in the field of education. "I'm tired of hearing the sameold song after five years or so," she said. She also took issue with Reimer on several points of histheory as they appeared in the book. Reimer bases a great deal of his theory on statistics not only from the United States but also from selected countries in South America, Carroll said. "His backgroundregarding the rest of the world is skimpy," she said. "I even have doubts about his familiarity with thiscountry." She cited several instances in the book where Reimer had unsuccessfully attempted totranspose data from his findings in South America to the United . States school system. Reimergeneralizes that school represents a regressive form of taxation where the poor^ pay for the schooling ofthe rich.* Carroll admits this is true of Peru and Bolivia where education is funded by the nationalgovernment and there is no graduated income tax, but says that in the U.S. school financing is on astate level and is funded by different means in different states, usually on a fairly equitable basis.According to Carroll, much of the data will not transfer from South America to the United States. "Iwonder about these generalizations he makes," she . said. S h e also disagrees emphatically with oneof Reimer's basic points: "I just will not buy the idea that all public schools are brainwashing studentsinto technological robots." D i t t r i c h , a native of Bellingham and a product of public education in the Bellingham schools, said that there was a lot of pressure to conform "despite talk of finding yourself and intellectual freedom." She cited school dress codes, the power of suspension without due process, andthe custodial function of schools as examples. The custodial function was described by Carroll asschool having the obligation to protect the student, which results in students being viewed simply asbodies to count and "babysit." Dittrich stated that Reimer describes American schools as having a"scholastic monopoly" in that people are conditioned to think that for an education one must go to aspecific institution. "I'm realizing that school is only one means to an education," she said. "There areextra-curricular things like films, non-text books, educational TV shows that are all learning media."While all of those alternatives were available to her while she was in public school, she said, she wasnot conditioned to think of them as learning experiences; rather the only sanctioned learning situationswere ones in an institutional atmosphere where the proof came in how well she did in an examination."The real test was not in how m u c h e n j o y m e n t or understanding I got from it but how well I coulddo on a test," she said. ---------- Western Front - 1973 February 2 - Page 8 ---------- 8 Western Front Friday, February 2, 1973 Bills aid state's ecology UNITY EDITOR-RocheUe Hendersonheads a new bi-monthly newsletter on which Black, Asian, Indian and Chicano students work together.Ethnic unions form newsletter Governor Daniel Evans introduced a bill to the state legislature this month that would tax oil coming into the state at two cents per barrel, the proceeds being used to clean up oil spills of unknown origin. Meanwhile, Barney Goltz of the 42nd District introduced a bill aimed atconserving the s t a t e ' s dwindling power resources. Evans' bill would not apply to situations like therecent pipeline break at Laurel. State law already provides for clean-up by the responsible parties. Thebill would supply a general fund to deal with spills where the party responsible is unknown and cannot be traced. The Goltz bill is aimed at conserving power resources by limiting the advertising. and promotion of public service companies which create new power demands not essential to comfortable daily living.The bill directs the state Utilities and Transportation Commission to set standards for determining theessential power needs of the consumer and to require utility companies to limit their promotional effortsto informing the consumer of the advantages of the company's products and services. "With the PacificNorthwest in imminent danger of major power and fuel shortages, it would not appear to be in the publicinterest to promote new and unnecessary uses of our limited power resources," Goltz said. Introducingthis bill, the first of the current legislative session, Goltz praised the efforts of the Puget Sound Powerand Light C o m p a n y for t h e ir c o n s e r v a t i o n - o r i e n t e d advertising. Goltz said that hehoped the proposed - legislation would "encourage the state's power and fuel companies to lead theway in creating a conservation-o r i e n t e d i n s t e a d of consumption-oriented public attitude."Representative Dan Van Dyk, also of the 42nd District, is co-sponsor of the bill. New student loanscreated by bill before legislature A new school bi-weekly publication, a newsletter called Unity, is beingproduced by Western's four ethnic studenl unions. The second issue came out yesterday. Black,Asian, Indian and Chicano students are working together and developing a newsletter that contains anevents column, news involving m i n o r i t i e s , student union happenings, minority issues, changes atthe College of Ethnic Studies (CES) and contributions f r om minority students including art, poetry andcommentaries. Each issue will also contain an interview with a member of the Administration or faculty.Jesse Hiraoka, dean of CES, was interviewed for the first edition of Unity. The newsletter was the idea of Rick Altares, the managing editor,, Rochelle Henderson is the editor and Kyle Kinoshita is thecoordinating editor. The rest of the Unity staff consists of two reporters from each student union. "Weare trying to work together to make this a pertinent form of communication between ethnic students,"Henderson said. The newsletter will be distributed at no cost to students and faculty. Permanentsubscriptions and a mailing list are planned for the future. A bill to create a state agency to issue tax-exempt bonds for loans to college students has been introduced to the legislature on recommendation ofthe State Council on Higher Education (CHE). The agency, called the Washington State HigherEducation Assistance Authority, would permit colleges themselves to make loans to students and "sell"the loan to the authority. Under the legislation, each student loan would quality for a 100 per centguarantee by the federal government. This would shift the risk of loss from default from the state to thefederal government. The plan would allow students to go to school under a "deferred tuition" program bytapping the tax-exempt bond market, the CHE said. A student would repay his loan beginning ninemonths after his education had been completed. It would be repayable over a 10-year period, with theinterest rate limited to seven per cent per year. With an adjusted family income of less than $15,000annually, the student would pay no principal and no interest, while in school. The federal governmentwould pay the interest. If the adjusted family income exceeds $15,000, the student would pay interestwhile in school. Private banks would also be able to loan money through this program. They would not be responsible for collecting the loans, but could gain immediate return on their money by selling the loans to the authority. Banks now participate in student loan programs under federal sponsorship but somehave reportedly been reluctant to do this because of the low return on the investment and slow payments. The authority would be empowered to either forgive or suspend repayments. This is designed to attractlow-income students or those who plan a career of public service where their incomes would not enablethem to repay the loans. The CHE said the authority can expect to earn at least a one per cent profitbetween the rate it pays for its money and the rate of return realized from the loans. Loans would beavailable to out-of-state students attending Washington colleges, part-time students and Washingtonstudents attending out-of-state schools. The 12-member authority would consist of nine citizen members of the CHE and three members appointed by the governor. flfTER WE/TERn vs CEflTRflL TOOIGHT,WHY DOn'T YOU COfT16 OYER TO RIDGEWAY /flGfl â‚¬ gt;. donee to vendetta 9:30 PM TO 12:30AM plu/ YOU Cflfl EflT.

Net fishing court case may produce fireworks Today'sarraignment in Thurston County Justice Court at 2 p.m. of five Indians arrested on Saturday for netfishing on the Nisqually river may produce several interesting events. Several of the " Indians involvedhave been told by a state legislator that the presiding judge, Franklin Thorpe, could very possibly issue a temporary "restraining order preventing the State Game Department from arresting Indians for net fishing on the Nisqually River for the rest of the steelhead fishing season. Sid Mills, one of the Indians to bearraigned, may also face federal charges of possession of g o v e r n m e n t documents, according tohis wife Suzette. The restraining order would force a continuation of the temporary moratorium on fishing arrests agreed to at a m e e t i n g between game department officials and Indians earlier this week after a group of Indians seized the game department building in Olympia on Sunday. Game officials hadagreed not to patrol the Nisqually River until midnight tonight. Also agreen upon in the meetings wasthat an inventory of all fishing equipment seized by game department officials was to be compiled andreleased to the Indians. The U.S. Attorney for Western Washington, Stan Pitkin, was to be asked tofind some "immediate court route to determine the position of the Indians and the state on the river forthe remainder of the steelhead season." Another product of the meetings was to have the ThurstonCounty prosecutor's office make a determination of the need to keep the confiscated fishing equipmentfor court evidence. Mills' other charge may be in connection with the Trail of Broken Treaties Caravan'soccupation of the Bureau of Indian Affiars in November. This week the Federal Bureau of Investigationbegan arresting people involved in the building takeover.

Pigs are not considered "common household pets," and thereforecannot be kept in densely populated zones, such as Fairhaven College, according to city regulations.The Fairhaven pigs are part of a new residence hall program which was created last year, centering onprojects that would bring the students closer to everyday life experiences to which they are not ordinarilyexposed. The students felt these experiences would bring the individual closer to himself. Tika and Push are owned by resident director Tim Place who decided to "get a farm trip together" this year, on the thenvacant clay lot between Fairhaven and Buchanan Towers. Place felt that, besides being a start for a farm, the pigs would serve three purposes: 1- Students could experience not only the care and feeding of thepigs, but the butchering, too. 2- They could take care of waste food, thus acting as a recycling agent. 3-The pigs would help create top-soil for the proposed garden. ". . . We're going to slaughter a pig sopeople can see the step in between the 'cute little thing' and the meat on the table," Place said. Headded that if a person cannot take the sight of it, ;he should be a vegetarian. Assisted by freshmanShanon Brown, Place began to "scrounge around" last quarter for materials to build a pig pen. They andseveral other students tore down old unwanted fences for lumber, and hauled in Â»a mini-barn to keepthe hay dry. The total cost to house the pigs has come to about $3.75 so far, Place said. Someone from the old Fairhaven Co-op heard about the farm, and decided to give it some chickens. Diane Steffan,"chief assistant pig mother," said, "We kept them in the dorm until we could get a pen made." A chicken coup in the shape of a geodesic dome will be used, "as soon as someone finishes it . . . tomorrow?"Place commented. Food for the pigs is "scrounged" from several sources, including Fairhaven Saga Food Service. "At first everyone was repulsed by the thought of scraping, their plates into a bucket," saidSteffan, "but now more people are doing it." "Otherwise the food is wasted anyway," added Place. Anyfood that is not used for the pigs is placed on the compost heap, which will eventually be used for top-soil experiments. The department of safety j and security objected to the "buckets of garbage," saying thatit would later start to smell and gather flies. Assistant dean of students of Fairhaven Norris explained that when security saw the compost material, they had not yet put it together the way they intended. Placefeels that security's objections are more aesthetic than legal. ". . . If it looks like garbage, thenautomatically, it has germs and it's unsanitary . . . ," he said. "I suppose if it's really a health hazard,then the pigs have to be wiped out," said Brown, who has kept a journal of all farm activities, "But if theydo, they'll wipe out my whole year's project and possibly my whole career." She explained that eventually they hoped to add goats, rabbits, and some more pigs. Place added that he has received no complaints about the pigs. However, one Buchanan Tower student commented that he sometimes felt he waswaking up in a farm to the rooster's crow.

"We're health and I thinkwe can beat Central," Viking games ahead of the pack with a 5-1 conference mark. Stopping Centraltonight is a must if the Vikings are to have any hope of retaining last year's conference crown. In themore important battle for a NAIA District I playoff berth, which are given on the basis of overall seasonrecords, Western needs both weekend games in the win column to improve its .500 record. TheWildcats are 10-4 for the season and have the inside track for the number one playoff spot in the district. Coach Dean Nicholson has built the Central team around 6-4 forward Rich Hanson. Much to the relief of Evco opponents, this is the Blaine native's final season as a Wildcat. The two-time NAIA All-Americanscored 19 points to lead the Wildcats to a 53-43 victory over the Viks earlier this season in Ellensburg.Other expected Central RICH HANSON mentor Chuck Randall said. "We may not beat them bad, butwe can beat them." Randall plans to go with guards Mike Franza (6-1) and Chuck Price (6-0), forwardsDick Bissell (6-6) and Tom Mount (6-2) and center Mike Buza (6-5). F r a n z a , W e s t e r n 's All-American candidate, will be guarding Hanson in tonight's game and the battle between Vikings' leadingscorer and the Wildcats' top point man should be the highlight of the contest. After 18 games Franza isaveraging 25.5 points and has set most of the school's scoring records. Franza needs 80 more pointsthis .year for the season scoring record of 539 and has to take 30 more shots for the most field goalsattempted in a year at 435. The records for most points in a game, most points on the home court,most points in a career, most field goals made in. a season, most field goals in a game and highest field goal percentage in a season already belong to the guard from San Jose, Calif. Oregon College also has one game on Western this year. The Wolves downed the Viks, 62-61, in Monmouth, Ore., coming back from a seven-point deficit. For the season OCE is 6-10, but still has a chance at the Evco crown if itwins tomorrow's game. Starters for the Wolves will probably be the same five that opened their lastgame Western: Larry Gahr (6-4) Young (6-4), Gary Lathen with , Mike (6-2), itesa Women beatSeattle Scotties 62-30, for eighth straight win Western won its eighth straight victory Wednesday nightagainst the Seattle Scotties 62-30 in women's intercollegiate competition. The Viks burned the Scotties at both ends of the court using its controlled fast break and man-to-man press. Western shot 61 percent from the free throw line and 41 per cent from the field. Kathy Hemion and Geri Campbell led theteam in assists with six each. Western will travel to the University of Washington (UW) tomorrow to face the UW, Washington State University (WSU) and Central Washington State College. This will beWestern's first chance for revenge against the WSU team which has beaten the Viks two years in a rowfor the championship of the Northwest Regional Tournament. The Cougars have eight returning playersfrom last year's undefeated team including 6-5 center Jennifer Gray. The women's junior varsitycontinued its six game winning streak by defeating Everett Community College 44-34 Wednesday.Meagon Thorn and Peg Bolek were the leading scorers with 11 points and nine points respectively.Western's aggressiveness took its toll with four of its eleven players having four fouls each and one onthe bench with five fouls by the time the final buzzer sounded. The junior varsity came back from a 12-15 halftime score to outscore Everett 14-5 in the third quarter.

In case you've forgotten, spring is the time of year when the Bellingham weather starts producing more than one day of sunshine at a time. Spring is when you can go outdoors withoutan aqualung and step off the sidewalk without sinking into some swamp disguised as a front lawn. In the spring you can play baseball without wearing the infield and find a tennis court where you don't needgaloshes. But what can you do during many days of wet and cold separating us from decent weather?For those who like to be cold anyway there's Mount Baker 50 miles from campus with its ski slopes andthere are dozens of other Northwest ski areas within driving distance of Western. Every pass over thecascades has at least one area where you can slide around in the snow. There's Pilchuck in SnohomishCounty and Hurricane Ridge on the Olympic Peninsula. Grouse Mountain, north of Vancouver, B.C., hasthe attraction of some liberal laws concerning the distribution of anti-freeze to youthful skiers. If you'rereally serious about getting out in the cold there is cross country skiing up in the mountains. Pack somefood and a warm sleeping bag and go ask one of the bright-eyed people (those gleams are ice crystals)down in Outdoor Programs where the good ski trails are. There are some madmen who think a goodwinter weekend can be spent on a steelhead stream. You will have to fight ice in your rod guides and byevening will have forgotten where you left your feet, but a fresh steelie, caught frozen, makes good eatingwhen you both thaw out. Sait water fishing, while not too popular in the winter, does have the advantagethat salt water is harder to freeze than the fresher variety. Blackmouth salmon are the most sought afterfish during the winter months, but most fishermen will take whatever they can hook. Hooligan, or smelt,also provide winter fishing. When the run is at its peak you can catch a bucket of the little fish in an hour.And while a smelt is a lot smaller than most fish, they can be eaten whole, saving fishermen the task ofcleaning them; a chore that is even less fun in the cold than during good weather. The Western Yachtclub has sailing activities, including single-man races, going this time of year. The outdoors doesn'tappeal to some people unless they can see the sun, or at least a little blue sky. For these the days fromnow until springtime can be downright discouraging, but if the indoor types look around they can findenough to keep them busy inside. On campus you can take your old Converses and go hang around thegym until the big guys let you into one of the constant gym-rat games. Just watch out that the varsitydoesn't run over you. Other activities at the gym include intramural competition in swimming, men'swrestling, handball, racquetball, women's gymnastics and men's weight lifting. Anyone interested inintramurals can sign up at Carver Gym 112. The facilities in the gym are available for individual useâ€”besure to call the gym office to make a reservation and to check on open hours. If you prefer moresedentary activities during the winter, Western has three varsity sports you can watch during homemeets. The basketball team has five more home games including two this weekend. The varsity grapplers host Eastern Washington this afternoon and the swim team will be holding another meet next weekend. The women's basketball team has one more home game on Feb. 14 and the men's freshman basketballteam will be playing before each varsity home game. Looking off campus for some sit down sportsactivity, there are three more weeks of high school basketball left in the current season and for varietyWhatcom County has teams representing three leagues this year. A new attraction in Bellingham thisyear is the Blazers, a British Columbia Junior Hockey League team. The Blazers play their games at thenew ice arena near the Bellingham airport. If you can get over the fact that Bellingham is listed as one ofthe eight British Columbia cities where the league plays, the games are fun to watch. That should beenough to keep anybody from getting cabin fever before spring, but if you insist in packing your surfboardand heading for the sun remember that today is the last day you can drop a class and still get half yourtuition back. *--v:v \\i.v -,-v%\ ,:.v,/- w .v. by O.K. JOHNSON The Viking wrestling team gets a chance toavenge an earlier season loss this afternoon when it meets nationally ranked Eastern at 2:30. TheSavages, ranked number 13 for NAIA schools by Amateur Wrestling News, pinned the Vikings inCheney with a 33-19 defeat. While Western wrestling coach Rick Iverson says that his team has a good chance to reverse the earlier loss, the Savages will field a team that consists of four new men that didnot meet the Viking wrestlers in their last encounter. "This sort of scares us because they beat the other guys," Iverson said. "We don't know what's going to happen. We could possibly pull it out." For the first time this season, the Vikings may field a man in the 118-pound class, Rudy Pena. Pena wasscheduled to wrestle against Pacific Lutheran last weekend, but a death in the family prevented him from wrestling. It was not known at press time whether Pena would wrestle or not. Admiral Flunder, 126, will be the first Viking to face a new opponent. Teammate Dwight Mack will be out to reverse a 7-3 lossadministered by Nick Kruz in the 134-pound affair. Mark Sencenbaugh will meet Jay Johnson at 142.Johnson is another Eastern grappler that the Vikings have not seen before. Tom Tripple faces PaulStraehli at 150 in what could be a down-to-the-wire affair. "Tripple didn't meet Straehli at Cheney and this match could cause us some trouble," Iverson said. Mark Stroobrandt, 158, and John Mosich, 167, willhave their hands full in trying to reverse major decisions dealth to them by Tom Kock and John Rios.Rios took top honors at the Cheney Tournament while Koch placed second. Dave Holte meets TomKeeney, third place finisher at the tournament, in the 177-pound match. Teammate Dan Anderson, 190,meets another third place finisher, Eastern's John Luna. In heavyweight action, "B.J." Bill Jones facesthe last of the new people when he takes on Dave Shaw. Jones won a 3-2 decision over Eastern'sprevious heavyweight. Shaw is reported to be related to Central's Kit Shaw, sidelined for the rest of theseason with knee damage. Joneses' backup, Brett Bennett, is scaling down to make the 190-poundclass. Wednesday night, Bennett weighed in at 203, needing to lose 13 pounds before the EvergreenConference meet in two and one half weeks. "If we can win at 118 and the rest of the lower weights, wecan pull it out," Iverson said. Little Blue faces Central, OCE in weekend games W e s t e r n ' sfreshman basketball team starts a rugged four-game series tonight when the Vik yearlings host theCentral junior varsity in a 5:30 o'clock preliminary to the varsity game in Carver Gym. The ' contest willbe Western's first of four games to be played in the next six days. The Viking frosh will be out to avenge a 73-63 loss to the Wildcats earlier this year in Ellensburg. The two teams played a very tight gameuntil midway in the second half when Central quickly scored 10 unanswered' points to put the gameaway. Coach Gary Burch's crew is currently 5-7 for the season, having suffered a rash of playersbecoming ineligible, leaving the current team with only eight members. That number may decrease again as guard Kevin Healy, who missed the first half of the season with mononucleosis, has not been feeling well at practice this week. Tomorrow night, prior to the varsity game with Oregon College, the frosh willtake on Seattle University's jayvees. SU h a s been suffering an Badminton team wins in tourney T h e I n t e r c o l l e g i a te Badminton team won three of four divisions of the women's section of theNorthwest Collegiate Open Badminton Tournament held last weekend in Eugene, Ore. Western won the B, C, and D divisions with Sue Schulte taking B, Jeri Smith winning C and Wendy Tayler taking the Ddivision. Sue Schulte also placed first in the C division of the mixed doubles. Margaret Aitken, coach ofthe team said she was pleased at the improvement of her players since they started with very littleexperience. "They're not top notch A (division) players," Aitken said, "but they are getting to be goodplayers." Western's competition in the A division included two prospects for the Huber Cup which is theAmerican team for international competition. The women depend on the Oregon schools for the onlyother Northwest intercollegiate competition. The team is hoping to have a match against the BemnghamÂ¥MOA;tomoKow. â€¢ gt;, up-and-down season similar to Western's, but bring with them a superiorheight advantage. Burch is expected to start Jamie Greene (5-11), Bob Heofel (5-11), Ken Kelley (5-10),Steve Laws (6-1) and Kim Sherwood (6-7) tonight against Central.

This andmany of his other paintings are being shown in the Western Gallery in the Art Building. Lundin paintingson display by VICTORIA HAMILTON One of this region's foremost painters of the human figure, NormanLundin, is exhibiting his works in the Western Gallery, between Feb. 1 and Feb. 16. Lundin, currently an associate professor of art at the University of Washington, paints such objects as landscapes anddogs, but for the most part it is the nude female figure that gives credit to his style. Seen standing at the end of a glossy hallway, lounging on a bed, walking across a handball court-it is the figure that givesfocus to his paintings. Symposium planned by Gay Alliance A "Gay Awareness Symposium", is being planned by Western's Gay Peoples Alliance, for April 5-7. Two days of presentations will featureministers from churches in Seattle and Sacramento, local gay people and gay rights activists.Workshops for gay people are scheduled on the third day with subjects ranging from politicalorganizations to aspects of homosexuality and Christianity. Phylis and Del of the Daughters of Bilituswill lead a women's workshop. Founded in the mid 1950's, the Daughters of Bilitus was one of the firstgay groups in the country to organize. The Gay Alliance will also sponsor a dance, films and an artshow featuring local talent on the gay theme. Since painting is an everyday activity for Lundin, he is"more interested in developing a visual idea than in any single painting". His concern is to create anillusion by using formal relationships of color, light and a i r and most recently experimenting with thetime of day and the effects of atmosphere. As a result, "the real subject matter is light and air."Interested in the erotic element, Lundin feels that eroticism fails when there is conflict between form and content. "If the content of a work overwhelms the form, the whole thing goes thud; if the form of a workgets too much emphasis, then it also goes thud. What one needs is form and content working togetherto get an acceptable erotic painting." The erotic side of the artist's work "more or less happens" as hepaints and "frequently involves the attitudes of my models. I could say more, but we'll leave it at that,"Lundin Jazz concert is Monday Walter Zuber Armstrong, a former member of Western's music faculty,will be featured along with Charlie Byrd at a jazz concert on Monday. Armstrong describes his music as avant-garde with a blending of eastern and religious influences. The Charlie Byrd t r i o ' s music isbasically fundamentalist with a mixture of classical and popular music. Armstrong said he only performs on college campuses because he dislikes performing where alcohol is served. Describing himself as"highly religious", Armstrong said he tries to communicate love and beauty through his music. said.Lundin was born in Los. Angeles, California, in 1939. He has studied at; the Art Institute of Chicago, theUniversity of Chicago, the University of Cincinnati, and the University of Oslo in Norway. He has hadnumerous scholarships and grants including a Full bright and Tiffany Fellowships for painting. Lundin'sworks have been included in many regional and national exhibitions, including shows at the WhitneyMuseum of American Art in New York, the San Francisco Art Museum, the Seattle Art Museum, theDenver Art Museum, among others. The artist's works have also been included in exhibitions in privategalleries in London, Chicago, Oslo, Paris, New York and Amsterdam. This exhibit is Lundin's tenth one-man show. The paintings included in the show cover a broad period of time. But the large majority arevery recent, having been painted since July 1972. Already having developed a distinct style in figurepainting, Lundin expresses an interest in the back side of his female models, in his most recentpaintings. The exhibit can be viewed from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 6 to 10 p.m., Monday through Friday.Concert aids quake victims A concert to benefit Nicaragua, the scene of a devastating earthquake latelast year, will be held tomorrow at 7:30 p.m. in the Viking Union lounge. The concert is jointlysponsored by the Ananda Marga Yoga Society and MECHA. Donations for Nicaragua will be acceptedat the concert.

The new squadron brings to four the number of Air Forcesquadrons. Two marine squadrons of Phantoms arrived at the base 10 days ago on a hurried movementfrom Japan. With the new planes, there now is a total of about 120 F4s stationed here, believed to be afigure near the war's high point for Da Nang. Hanoi bombings "to prevent takeover" WASHINGTON UPI-Secretary of State William P. Rogers said yesterday U.S. bombing Hanoi and Haiphong was ademonstration of U.S. determination to "take whatever military action necessary" to prevent a Communist takeover of South Vietnam. Rogers told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that no Americantroops would be re-introduced into ground fighting, but said President Nixon would use U.S. air and navalpower as necessary to support South Vietnamese troops. North Vietnam wants to resume talks PARISUPI-Hanoi has offered to start new secret peace negotiations if President Nixon calls off his air raids andresumes regular weekly Vietnam talks. It also warned against any invasion of North Vietnam. NorthVietnamese peace negotiator Xuan Thuy told a news conference the "special adviser" to the peace teamLe Due Tho, who has conducted 13 past private talks with presidential adviser Henry A. Kissinger, will flyto Paris the moment the two conditions are met. Thuy also warned that the North Vietnamese were ready to meet any air, naval and ground invasion of their territory in retaliation for the Communist offensive inSouth Vietnam. Democratic Chairman comments in Seattle SEATTLE UPI-Democratic NationalChairman Lawrence O'Brien said the renewed bombing of North Vietnam runs "the gravest of risks" which may lead the world "to the brink of expanded war." O'Brien made his remarks Saturday night at aDemocratic party meeting soon after first word of the bombing was received. "This much is already clear:The decision by Mr. Nixon to bomb the Haiphong area runs the gravest of risks, particularly since a greatnumber of Soviet ships are undoubtedly present in Haiphong Harbor," he said. "This dramatic bombingescalation could well bring the world to the brink of expanded war," he said. "I earnestly hope thisdecision does not signal the tragic reversal of U.S. policy of winding down the war." 2,500 stateorganizations to help in cleanup OLYMPIA UPI-The State Department of Ecology reports that about2,500 clubs, classrooms, troops and groups are planning to participate in the statewide Operation LitterControl, April 22 to May 7. The cleanup effort has been organized under the state's Model Litter ControlAct which seeks to combine citizen, government and industry in combatting litter. Estimated cost of litter pickup and disposal in the state is nearly $7 million annually. â€”compiled from United PressInternational Western Front rated second in state Rated above the University of Washington Daily andbelow the Campus Crier from Central Washington State College, the Western Front captured secondplace in the Sigma Delta Chi (SDX) state ratings for excellence in four-year college newspapers.Accepting the award for the Western Front at the SDX banquet, held at the Washington Plaza Hotel inSeattle were Howard Scott, Kent Sherwood, Ken Ritchie, and Jackie Lawson, all current members of the Front editorial staff.

The annual awards banquet attracted top journalist from around thestate, including reporters, photographers and editors from daily and weekly papers, and radio andtelevision media men and women. The Front submitted the first three issues of Winter quarter to thecompetition, where they were rated and judged by state journalists. The Front took first place in thesame competition last year. Asian week begins ethnic awareness month by SUE GAWRYS AsianAwareness Week begins today. The week, sponsored by the Asian Students Union, marks thebeginning of ethnic awareness month on campus. Speakers, films, an exhibit, guerilla theatre, a food fair and a dance comprise the week's activities. "Asian awareness is a good title, because that's what it'sall a b o u t , " Chris Pena, junior VICOED major from Port Orchard and Asian Student Union president,said. "It's for other Asians on campus to come and find out what it is to be Asian and ask themselveswhat direction they're going," he said. Kyle Kinoshita, Fairhaven freshman from Seattle, said thatgreater understanding of what thq Asian American must deal with in living in a racist society is the aimof the week. He said some events deal directly with racism and others are specific examples of racismand attempts of young Asians to stop it. Throughout the week, "The Pride and Shame" of the JapaneseAmericans, a graphic exhibit, will be on display in the Viking Union lounge. "The Pride and Shame"attempts to replace stereotyping of Japanese-Americans with a picture of the way they actually are. Itcommunicates the history of the Japanese-Americans in the United States, including their contributionsto society and the injustices leveled against them in the firs* half of the 20th Century. A paneldiscussion about the exhibit will take place on Thursday. The exhibit is sponsored by the SeattleChapter of the Japanese American Citizens League and the State Capitol Museum along with the Asian Student Union. It has been exhibited throughout the state. Larry Itliong will open the week today with atalk on "Emergence of Asians in . America." Itliong was formerly assistant director of the United FarmWorkers Organizing Committee, has served as president of the Filipino American community inStockton, Cal., and is now president of the Filipino- American Political Association, a nationalorganization.

Gee has taught courses on Chinese and Japanese women and also on Asian women in this country at the University of California at Berkeley. She also served as culturalprogram coodinator and instructor of English as a second language in Los Angeles Chinatown. Dr.Mifoo Hsu, acupuncture expert from Bellevue, will give a talk on that subject tomorrow. Acupuncture isan ancient Asian science which involves placing needles at various nerve points of the body to let outillness and pain. Films during the week include "Rashomon," an award-winning Japanese film whichfocuses attention on J a p a n ' s rich historical background. It is a tale of a murder told by three different people. "Charlie Chan in the Secret Service" is about an Oriental sleuth, which Kinoshita terms "one ofthe most obnoxious examples of racism in American cinema." "Isa" is the story of Filipino men as theycame to America. "Manzinar" is about the largest internment camp for the Japanese during World WarII, located in California. "Homecoming Game" is a documentary about a group of Asian-American"hardcore"â€” drug addicts," rebels and ex-convicts who are attempting as a group to establish a newlifestyle. Dulaan Ng Mger Tao, a Filipino theatre of the common people, presents a guerilla presentationof how Asian Americans think and feel toward prejudice they meet. It is headed by Stan Asis and will be presented tomorrow. "Contrary to popular belief, Asians do not live on a staple of rice," Jack Bishop,sophomore from Tacoma said. *â€¢ Beef teryaki, chicken teryaki and green tea are some of thedelicacies to be sold on Friday. It will feature Chinese, Japanese and Filipino food "to go." An Asiangroup, "Nine Lives," will provide music for the dance Friday. Admission charge is $1.50 for couples and$ 1.00 for singles. College President Charles J. Flora explained his views on c e n s o r s h i p of s t u de nt publications in an interview with t h e Western Front last Wednesday. F r o n t : "Under whatcircumstances would you consider censorship of the 1972 Jeopardy, or any student publication?" Flora: "I don't know. I have an absolute abhorrence of censorship. I would rather block publication." Front:"Isn't that the same thing?" Flora: "I don't know how to answer your question." Flora set up an ad hoccommittee to study the 1972 Jeopardy after its advisors warned him that one story in it may be ofquestionable literary value. Jeopardy advisors contacted President Flora so that he would be preparedfor any possible negative reaction similar to that which occurred concerning Fall quarter's Klipsun. InFebruary, a retired Bellingham fireman complained t o G o v e r n o r Evans of pornography in thatquarter's Klipsun. Flora said that his greatest concern is that he doesn't know what goes on in theminds of those who make up the school's budget. He feels that student publications can affect, to some extent, the people who decide on Western's funding. "We live in a glass house," he said. "Studentpublications have a much wider audience than just here on campus. Are we p r e p a r e d to pay theconsequences?"

Integrate neighborhoods, not buses orschools After yet another round, opponents of mandatory busing for desegregation have gone downswinging. The State Supreme Court has given Seattle Public Schools the green light to begin its busingprogram, of which racial integration and harmony are to be an end result. Despite these good intentions,the idea has had strong opposition, with much of it coming from parents of children who will be bused. Ithad been my understanding that these parents' main concern was wanting their children close to homeand not bused clear across town. A recent Harris survey, however, showed differently. While a largemajority of parents had no objection to having their children ride a bus to school, a similar majorityobjected when the phrase " to achieve racial integration" was added. One thing this shows is that parents do not want their children in an environment different from that of their own neighborhood, and mandatorybusing will not change their attitude. Children will end up being exposed to different-colored classmates for six hours a day, only to go home to the greater influence of their parents and be told not to play withtheir "inferior" classmates. In short, busing will not achieve racial balance or harmony in America. Atbest, busing will upgrade Black schools by forcing White budget-makers to consider that White childrenare going to these schools, also. This, however, is not enough. It is only another act of going through themotions to gain racial equality. The problem of integrating schools ultimately boils down to integratingneighborhoods. This means real estate companies and the rest of the many 99 per cent Whiteneighborhoods must no longer be allowed to keep Blacks out. It is this White group of adults that isresponsible for the present school situation, not the children who are being shifted about so freely.Integration, or the freedom to integrate, is something that will take time. The first real steps towardachieving it can and must be taken now, not two generations from now. Busing is only a half-step towardintegration, and the longer these half-steps are accepted, the worse the situation will get and the lesstime American will be free to take such insignificant steps. Carl Clark Minority awareness concerns usall Today marks the commencement of Asian Awareness Week, one of five such events taking place this quarter. The Front has devoted its centerfold to the Asians this issue, in the hopes that their articles,poetry and commentaries will offer a greater insight into some of the problems currently facing the Asiansegment of our population. The complete schedule of events is included in this issue, and we urge theentire college community to attend the various presentations being given on campus. The Front will devote similar space to all the minorities, in the hopes that their articles and statements will further the cause oftolerance and understanding among us all. The other weeks scheduled for this quarter include the Gaypride symposium and Black liberation week, both kicking off activities April 24; Chicano culturalawareness week May 1 through 5 and Indian awareness week, May 7 through 12. We urge our readers to take special note of our contributor's articles. Each group is offering this campus the opportunity tobecome aware of problems facing the minorities. It seems that in the year 1972 we could all use this type of education.

I went up to Peking'ssoundproof office to see how the program was started and where it was going. After being thoroughlysearched by Peking's secretary for subversive literature (she did find a seamy joke from Reader's Digestin my pocket), I was lead under heavy guard into the office and told I couldn't take any notes during theinterview. "You can't trust anyone nowadays," the secretary told me. "Yeah, I know what you mean," Isaid, switching on my tie clip tape recorder. Peking was relaxing behind his desk, a pair of binocularsdangling on a leather strap around his neck, close at hand in case he spied some undue behavior acrosscampus. I introduced myself. Without looking up at me, Peking went over to his filing cabinet and flippedthrough some cards. "Ahh, yes," he said. "You went to the porno flicks in Blaine a couple of monthsago." Blushing somewhat from this disclosure of my private life, I admitted seeing two x-rated jewels atthe Blaine Sea-Vue. "But only from a critic's point of view," I told him, holding out my hand in what Ithought was a pitiful gesture. "I don't know about that," Peking said, striking my hand with a riding crop."The only thing I have is a report from one of my agents saying he saw you enter the theater and comeout three hours later smiling." I asked Peking if he had the Sea-Vue and the AM-BC theaters staked outall the time. "Yes, among other things." "Among other things?" "Well, like the whole campus," he said."No, no, I don't mean we have agents watching every student. We rely on bugging devices to do ourwork." He walked over to a large panel and flipped a switch. "Now we're listening to President Flora'soffice." As T couldn't hear anything coming from the small speaker, I walked over closer. "Hmmm, itsounds like snoring," I said. "Yes, it's time for Dr. Flora's after-lunch nap," Peking told me, glancing at his watch. "This is amazing. You mean to tell me you can listen in to any room on campus?" Pekingnodded modestly. "But what about the 5,000 students living off campus, I mean how do you keep track of their comings and going?" Peking reached into his pocket and produced a water glass. "When you putthis next to a wall, you can hear a lot." "With all this information about the students and faculty youreceive everyday, just what do you do with it?" "Some of the stuff we turn over to the police and FBI. Theylike to keep files too. But the good stuff we keep for ourselves and use it to tease the students." I askedwhat he meant by "teasing" the students. "For example, let's say we find out a student is planning tocheat on a test and has all the answers," Peking said. "First, we call him up and let him know we knowabout the answers, but for a little price we won't tell anyone. They usually come across. Or sometimes we find out a student has an embarrassing habitâ€”chewing on his toenails or something. We call him upand just kind of tease him about it. It's for their own good, you know." "Then you are performing a servicefor the students?" "Of course. By weeding out the malcontents from our society and turning them over tothe police, we are able to have a better society." "How many 'malcontents' have you found on campussince your program started?" "About 9,000. But you have to remember we just started." Peking walkedover to the window and surveyed the campus through his binoculars. "This program takes up a lot of mytime, what with compiling all the reports I get from my agents and deciding which I should turn over to the police and which ones I should use for teasing." He sighed heavily with the burden he was carrying."Then why do you do it?" I knew tins was the right question because tears filled Peking's eyes and hewalked over to a wall, pushed a button and two American flags rolled down behind him. Somewhere"America the Beautiful" started to play. His body framed by the flags, Peking said, "Why? You ask why Ido it? For the little children is why, for our boys overseas is why, for a piece of warm apple pie is why, forthe Gross National Product is why " The music finally drowned out his voice. "Gee, that was swell," Isaid, brushing a tear aside. "Now I must leave," and I bowed my way out of his office. Once down at thenewsroom I turned my tape recording over to my organization, Tattlers Employing Loose Lips (TELL) forfuture use. ---------- Western Front - 1972 April 18 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, April 18, 1972 Western Front 3 Letters: Editor's note: Letters to the editor will be printedaccording to space available. In order to be printed, letters must carry the author's complete name,major and class standing. No anonymous letters will be accepted, however names will be withheld upon request. All letters submitted must be limited to 250 words or less, The editor reserves the right to editany letter for libel or taste. Too many errors Editor, Western Front: I am writing to let other students beaware and protect themselves against the blatant rip-offs the student store continues to thrust upon us.In the past three days I have been almost ripped-off twice, and it wasn't because they didn't try. The first instance was in regards to purchasing a 10 cent item with a silver dollar. I got 40 cents change, andwhen I asked why, the clerk looked, gave me 50 cents more and said "Does that make you happy?"The second instance regarded a mix-up in purchasing a 65 cent piece of mat board. I found the piece,took it downstairs, paid for it and went back upstairs to cut it up. I then took the cut board and semepictures I was mounting and 8 cents worth of . wrapping tissue to the clerk to pay for the paper, and Iwas charged 75 cents. This time I showed the clerk the receipt but she still insisted that I had not paidher for the board five minutes earlier. Upon complaining to the manager, all I got was chewed out forcausing problems. This is insane. If it is allowed to go unchecked, no telling what might happen. Isuggest if the bookstore can't hire people with a little better recollection then five minutes who can't readtheir own receipts, then they should give up. Stephen Shea Purchased papers will eliminate farceEditor, Western Front: Regarding the use of commercial term paper services, it is about time thecommercial term paper service came into its own because too many times an instructor or professor will assign term papers the first day of class for the last day of class and sometimes have nothing inbetweenâ€”not even classes. By writing his term paper, Joe College, the student, is in fact teaching theprofessor, and to top it all off, the professor then will plagiarize the students' papers and use the material for his future classes or for the writing of textbooks. This will increase the class of the professor whoinvariably comes from the higher classes anyway. So, more power to the c o m m e r c i a l term paperservicesâ€”they will make colleges better by helping eliminate the farce represented by the term paper.Name withheld upon request Gen. St. 321 can help understanding Editor, Western Front: The recentletters of Don McMillan (April 4) and Helga Mazur (April 11) seem to show that exposure to college e du c ation unfortunately has m e r e l y i n s t i l l e d an anti-intellectual, philistine and probablyethnocentric approach to education among some students. Perhaps the charge that General Studies321 lectures are "shallow" has some validity, but surely these two people should have learned by nowthat real education starts where formal instruction leaves off and individual interest and initiative begins.But how much detail can be included in a 50-minute lecture on such a vast field? As these lectures areconstituted, they do provide a general goundwork of more detailed and deeper investigation on thestudent's part. The failure of the student to pursue the topics of this course cannot be attributed as areason for finding it a "waste of time." McMillan's charge that his course is "a fine example of anothersubject of questionable relevance to most people" is so absurd that it scarcely merits rebuttal, thoughone can only hope that MacMilland and Mazur will realize that Africa and Asia together comprise overhalf of the population and land mass of Pulitzer prize winning poet to read selections in VU RichardEberhart, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, will read selections from his work 8 p.m. Thursday in the VikingUnion lounge.

Jerry J. Flintoff Senior, German/Classics Hire workers for skill, not seniority Editor, Western Front; Just read Johnston's column in Friday's Front, and I mustcomment. Not because of any sympathy, rather for a selfish reason; I've been the route and it pisses me off. I'd like to see some change that might preclude the typical runaround one gets when dealing with a"seniority" oriented bureaucracy. Anyone who is familiar with the "Peter Principle" can appreciate theproblem. Some person is hired for a particular job, sticks to it and then, after x number of years at thesame job, is promoted to the next higher position. And the cycle repeats itself until the individual is soobviously outclassed in his or her job that it becomes a joke. Funny you say? Aha!! Think on this, dearreader. Who do you think is paying Mrs. Schmuch to do her thing on you, hmmm? Or, ever wonder whythe arthritic slow poke has the monopoly at some public building on maintenance? We pay his salary,too. The point is, we have come so far along the lines of "social progress" that we are rapidly beinginnundated with useless people being paid to do unnecessary, redundant and unwarranted jobs. And torub a little salt into the wound, we are paying for it, literally and figuratively. I, personally, do notcondemn charity, but it smacks of political string-pulling favoritism when the tax paying W.W.S tudentDISCOUNT BIG 10% with Student I .D. on Snack, Regular, Jumbo Orders at COLONEL .,SANDERS public is assaulted with the prevailing raft of "public officials' and "public servants." Thinkabout jobs for the skilled, rather than the "needy." Think about hiring someone who can do the job ratherthan the person who "needs" the job. These may sound like reactionary thoughts, I suppose they are,but a wise old father of mine once said, 'Bill, you can't make chicken soup out of chicken shit.' And untilwe face the fact that the present system in use today isn't doing its job well enough, we will each payâ€”in money wasted on deadwood and time wasted on dead heads.

W i l l i e S g a m b e l l u r i , coordinator of Lummi tutorials, is hoping to gain support fromthe Associated Students for a coordinator to handle the new proposal, Project Reachout. Sgambelluri, aWestern senior majoring in special education, contends that it is impossible for tutors to handle thevarious services needed because they don't have enough time. He also urges greater and continuoussupport from the Western community in the tutoring effort. "Here we are with a great opportunity, but we haven't done much with it," Sgambelluri said Thursday. Becoming involved with the Reachout Programis one of the ways the college student can interact with the community in a meaningful way, he said."It's a farce to say this campus is really involved," he contends. The comprehensive Reachout Programprovides a wide variety of ways Western students can i n v o l v e t h e m s e l v e s in communityneeds. The food bank, clothes closet and share a lunch proposals open up many opportunities to "getthe whole campus involved." The heart of the project relies on tutors and Sgambelluri said, "We cannever recruit too many W SALE!

But hehopes that Project Reachout can work on a continuous basis instead of being "a quarterly thing." Inorder to really become personally involved with the children in the Lummi and Nooksack communities, a relationship of trust must be formed and this takes continuing commitment, he said. Tutors must "come down to the level where the kids are," he said. "Being friends is a lot more than just trying to work withthem academically." Western students can fill the gap between public schools and home life for minority children through Project Reachout. The share a lunch concept is now being followed by some tutorswho give -up lunch at Saga and, in turn, can get two sack dinners to take during regular tutoring visits.Sgambelluri wants more students to get involved in this concept on a regular basis. He would like to seeit happen twice a week. Through the clothes closet' service minority children could obtain better clothes. The clothes would be made, bought or collected and would have to be "cleaned, pressed and ready towear." He doesn't want it to appear as a welfare service with students donating cast-offs. Through thefood bank service a program to "provide f o r the collection and distribution of food for Lummi, Nooksackand Lynden migrant worker's families would be established. Sgambelluri would l i k e to see distributionchanneled through individuals already .working with the families. "The whole idea is .not only to feed the hungry or clothe them, but also to promote personal and meaningful involvement," he said. P r o j e c tReachout, an outgrowth of Western's tutorials program, may provide Western with an opportunity to"prove to other campuses that we can truly become community-involved," he said. Plaintiffs needed fortuition cose The American Civil Liberties Union needs plaintiffs to test a suit challenging WashingtonState's definition of residency for out-of-state students. According to local chapter member Bob Keller,the state ACLU needs people who qualify to vote under a U.S. Supreme Court March 21 ruling that that30 days is sufficient to establish residency for voting. Keller, who can be reached at Fairhaven College at 676-3693, said that the ACLU is looking for students who came to this state with a spouse, were bornhere and their parents moved away, are military transfer or for some other reasons weren't givenresidency status. m Sf*ed*tf Pe^jJc-.- Brighten a little someone's day!

The following is totally theirs and needs noexplanation. Asian women adopting new roles in changing society Asian Women, for years,unknowingly having adopted the W e s t e r n s t a n d a r d of attractiveness, have now foundthemselves being imitated. Being advertised in nationally known magazines are hints on looking"oriental." Tips are given for the usage of eye makeup to give the illusion of having slanted eyes. To havethe "China Doll" look, apply many coats of white powder and paint the lips red and full. The image heldby Western society-of Asian Women as being obedient, faithful, and forever honoring, her man aboveand beyond the call of marriage, was perhaps justified over fifty years ago. It was customary. In thisyear, 1972, we are still stereotyped as being domestic by day and Susie Wong by night. T h i s imagewas falsely romanticized by the movie industry. Asian Women, today, are conscious of the importanceof their new role in a changing society. We are students, professionals, soldiers and homemakers. Wehave been educated economically and politically as members of the Third World Movement, tostrengthen the unity of the suppressed and to aid for the emergence of Asian-Americans. AsianAwarenss Week; a time to end stereoty by KEVIN GOW Asian Awareness Week begins today. It issponsored by one of the smaller groups on Western campus, the Asian Student Union. AsianAwareness Week is for the people of Western, Bellingham, Washington and the U.S., but I stronglyencourage all Asians to attend the events, be you Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, Thai, Korean,Vietnamese or whatever. The purpose of the week is to let people know about the Asian minority in theU.S., that we had undergone a hard history in this country and to show some of the culture of someAsian nationalities. We do not fit the "stereotypes" that has been imposed upon by the white race.Mention "Japanese" and you get t h e " J a p " s t e r e o t y p e: b u c k - t o o t h e d , squinty-eyed,yellow-skinned, bespeckled, dishonest, wordy and arrogant people who are all experts in Karate.Mention "Chinese" and you get the "Chinaman" or "Chink" s t e r e o t y p e : Laundrymen, r e s t a u r a n t e u r s , houseboys, people who are mysterious, do everything backwards, eat chow mein,chopsuey and rice as national dishes, and who are cunning and crafty. People today may not know it,but Amerika's west coast and southern states were once anti-Asian to a point where the Immigration Act of 1924 excluded immigration into the U.S. of aliens ineligible to citizenship. This act was aimedprimarily at the Chinese and Japanese. Amerika's anti-Asian sentiment gave way to derogatory termssuch as "Nip," "Jap," "Chink," "Gook" '' Flip and many others. Several Chinatowns were burned to theground and people from Asia were murdered. There were other happenings in the past that discriminated against the early Asians. S e v e r a l s t a t e s had miscegenation laws up to the 1950's, some ofwhich not only named races, but specific nationalities within the races. Miscegenation was sometimelabeled as a felony. Laws wei passed barring immigration Asians. At one time, Asians wei consideredas Indians and coul not testify in a court of law fc or against a white man as state by law. Asians werebarred fro] certain professions by law. Thei were many other discriminator laws against Asians. Here are some other fac about Asian American Histor the Chinese were instrumental the building of the firtranscontinental U.S. railroai and farming of the land, tin contributing a great deal to tl development ofCalifornia.

Joy and sorrow for Filipinos by RICK ALTARES Yes, after sorrow, comes joy.What else could be more natural? But let's elaborate on sorrow and joy. Webster says that sorrow isdistress caused by loss, affliction, disappointment, grief, regret or sadness. What is sorrowv to theFilipino people? Distress caused by the loss of some brothers and sisters who have assimilated into thewhite culture so heavily that they forget they are Filipino and reject their people, culture and reallythemselves. The constant affliction of this country's power structure in the Phillipines today. Thedisappointment Filipinos felt when they first arrived in Amerika to find out that the promises of equality for all and the -tales of economic and education opportunities was nothing but lies. Grief because of all the hard backbreaking hours spent from day to day in the fields trying to earn enough to survive on. Regretfor being forced to get involved with the most prejudiced, conservative and capitalistic people on the faceof this planet earth. Sadness because it is not only Filipinos going through all these changes. OtherAsian, Indian, Black and Chicano brothers and sisters who went through a hell of a lot of shit have theirstory, too. As for joy, the definition states an emotion of keen or lively pleasure arising from present orexpected good. Obviously the Filipino people are not experiencing joy from any present good or theywould not be rebelling and fighting against the establishment not only in Amerika but also in thePhillipines. By maintaining the struggle against the oppressor and keeping the faith and hopes that oneday the tide will change is the only way Filipinos will feel any kind of keen or lively feeling of expectedjoy. Until this day comes the chant of Makibaka, Huwag Matakot (Struggle, don't be afraid) will comefrom the lips, minds and hearts of the Filipino people. Filipinos keystone of grape strike by REYNALDO PASCUA One of the little-known facts about the United Farm Workers Organizing Committee headedby Cesar Chavez is that the. whole movement which was to inspire a present membership of 100,000people was started when 2,500-3,000 Filipino grape pickers refused to work until they were justlycompensated for their efforts. Chronicled- by Sal Si Puedes and other movement journals, the Pinoys,most of whom were elderly males in the AFL's Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee, struck ninegrape ranches on Sept. 15, 1965. (in the area surrounding Delano of the southern San Joaquin Valley of California) They were followed a week later by the predominantly Mexican-American National FarmWorkers Association. The chief organizer for the Agricultural Workers Organizing Committee in thesouthern San. Joaquin Valley was Larry Itliong. It was he who was responsible, the catalyst for the five-year battle against California agri-business grapes. I first met Mr. Itliong on a research trip to California in December of 1970. I was seeking information on the various A s i a n - A m e r i c a n Studiesprograms offered at the different C a l i f o r n i a colleges and universities. An acquaintance suggestedthat I (as I had intimated my interest in knowing if Filipinos had participated in any of the current socialprogressive movements in America) contact Mr. I t l i o n g , who was Assistant-Director to CesarChavez. A seemingly unassuming, yet lively person, I first met him at his home in Delano. A friend and I stayed with Mr. Itliong and his family for two days and were enriched, enthralled, educated by the man.His knowledge of the history of labor in its efforts in organizing and seeking recognition on the WestCoast were vast. He had been an organizer of industrial and agricultural workers for over 30 years. Thebattle of labor transcended racial and became grounded on class lines. And becoming Assistant-Director of UFWOC was the culmination of his efforts. But what follows must seem a contradition, and Mr.Itliong cannot entirely escape the charge. For Larry Itliong recently resigned from his position in theFarmworkers Union. His goals and direction have become entirely oriented toward the establishment and ---------- Western Front - 1972 April 18 - Page 7 ---------- Tuesday, April 18, 1972 Western Front s I pledge allegiance to the Cause of the minority peoples ofAmerica, And to the Freedom for which they stand, Several minorities, under oppression, indivisible, with liberty and justice for ALL. KEVIN GOW 'Model minority' a degrading label by KYLE KINOSHITA Atone time, the sex ratio of Chinese in the U.S. was 27 males to 1 female, causing tortuous effects on lifein Chinatown in the U.S. Anti-Asian sentiment was once used to unite political g r o u p s ( s u c h asthe Workingmen's part of the late 1800's). Platforms of such groups were frequently used to arousemore ferment against Asians. Being Chinese, I wonder about such things as the possibility of Chineseinterment if the U.S. goes to war against China. Impossible? Maybe not. After all, China's power isgrowing as Japan's did in the earlier part of this century. The "Yellow Peril" may soon become real again. Asian American history is a brand new field. You can see that there * is a lot unknown about the Asian American Experience. Let's all become aware of this experience. This is Asian American Week atWestern Washington State College and a lot is going on. Become involved, especially you AsianBrothers and Sisters. Seattle Chinatown under attack skin jyes ftade. gt;t capable * of feeling afe.cet by REYNALDO PASCUA An immediate concern only now becoming an issue for Northwest Asian-Americans is the attempt by the city of Seattle to destroy that city's Chinatown. A brave but smallgroup of community people seek to marshall support for the residents of the International District of theso-called "Queen City." The city will soon start building the county's new domed stadium, and the word has been sent that the occupants of the district's hotels must be out by May 28. Seven hundred andfifty people are involved, predominantly elderly Japanese, Filipino, Chinese, and Black males. The steps for the handling of these evictions have gone through the correct legal channels. The First Departmentset the deadline-the "progress" of Seattle is the goal. It is when one considers the moral implications ofthe eviction notices that one sees specific trends associating what is happening in the Chinatowndistrict with the present c o n d i t i o n s of Indian Reservations, urban ghettoes and ruralbarrios acrossAmerica. For no matter how bad the conditions are in these minority community areas, the land will notbe given up. The specific and unique moral issues are evident when one sees the conditions therein. For the elderly men in the dingy hotels, Chinatown has been home for twenty-thirty-and even forty years.Historical evidence can allow us to presume that they come to America to participate in the "land ofmilk and honey" a term given them by labor contractors and perpetrated and perpetuated in their formerhomeland by institutions (the school system, in the case of the Philippines). What they faced when they arrived in America was not "milk and honey," but the realization that their position in society wasestablished (by no efforts of their own), that thoughts of betterment could only remain thoughts, thatassimilation into the system meant cultural elimination. And t h e men battled these conditions. Thesewere men who lived a history of struggle: facing Alien Land Laws (which prohibited-them from owning any land in the state), anti-miscegenation laws (which barred marriage to anyone non-Asian, during a timewhen the Asian sex ratio was 143 to each women), and overt acts of racism (look up the Tacoma,Seattle and Yakima Valley riots during the 1930's). And the struggle isnot over. It will intensify in themonth and a half remaining. There are three issues which the people of the International Drop-In Centerare fighting for: 1) the saving of Seattle Chinatown as an historical District If this plea fails: 2) theextension of the deadline in order to allow more time for the men to find new residences or 3) financialsupport from the city of or federal government in moving the men out. Your support is also asked bywriting to the Seattle Mayor's Office, the Department of H o u s i n g and U r b an Development of Seattle or any of the members of the Seattle City Council. For more information, write the International Drop-In Center, 506V Main Street, Seattle or visit the Asian Student Union, Viking Union 216. "Modelminority" is what they label us Asian Americans. "Good citizens, well adjusted." Yet such terms canonly be regarded as degrading and deceptive by anyone with a grain of awareness about the realities ofliving in America. Degrading because we are supposedly the "model, ideal" race minority, the one forother struggling groups to follow before they are allowed their rightful place in society. "Good citizen" ina nation where letting yourself be manipulated and keeping quiet about it draws a pat on the head frompeople like Richard Nixon. "Well-adjusted" to a set of values which can justify the Vietnam War and theblast at Amchitka. Deceptive because in a society deeply rooted in racism we are told that we are"accepted." But is it just a coincidence that the limits of this "acceptance" extend about to the pointwhere we are economically indispensible, and little further? To be sure, Asian Amerians as a group donot have the staggering problems other minorities must face in dealing with racism. But for any person,Asian or white, to say that p r e j u d i c e against Asian American does not exist clearly h a s had an ef f e c t i ve brainwashing. Many whites, especially those in authoritative positions, tell us we have noreason to feel inferior or to express anger over the forms of prejudice we meet; after all, as a group Asian Americans have their "success" to look to. Sociologists are quick to point out the criteria for thisjudgment: better educations, financial status, higher IQ's, lower crime levels, and so on. Socialacceptance is often measured by the generalization that in the public schools the Asian Americanstudent stands out in fields of leadership, scholastics, and athletics. Admittedly, this is so, but whatdoes this really mean? Being class president or cheerleader in high school is fine. But is it of anysignificance after high school? Is having money, material possessions and supposedly higherintelligence supposed to calm our anger when other people casts us into stereotypes? And doesimplying that we are somehow better than the "other" minorities supposed to be an answer to feelings of inferiority? Unfortunately,, for many Asians, especially of the older generation, these superficialities doprovide an answer. It is shameful when an Asian American points to his house in a fancy whiteneighborhood and believes because of it, he has "arrived." It is also ironic, for at the same time his white neighbors, with whom the Asian identifies his success, may be making derogatory comments behindhis back. But this only shows how Asians can be so deceived by what the system tells them. At leastit can be seen what is needed first and foremost to c o m b a t p r e j u d i c e and s t e r e o t y p i n gof Asian Americans: simple awareness of . the problem. This applies to Asians. as well as whites. Asian Americans must also realize that the struggle of other minorities is also their struggle; their ultimatedestiny here in America may rest on it. After awareness, the steps are harder to determine. But onething is a s s u r e d : nobody's going anywhere without it. White America crumbling byPHILIMAHARAAmerica is the most hypocritically racist country on the face of the earth. You know of how the whiteman with his trickery and lies and false promises systematically robbed the Red Man of his land in thiscountry. You also know of how this same white man captured and enslaved Black Africans to work theland stolen from the Red Man. You are also aware of the racism perpetrated against the Puerto Ricansand Chicanos in this phony, white society. In your ignorance you probably do not know of how the white man cleverly seduced Asians into coming to a "promised land" to work the mines and the land and build the railroads of America only to be socially excluded once the "little men" had been exploited for allthey were worth. And after all this, America still claims to be a land of freedom and opportunity andequality. Does my saying all this make me a racist? Not at all. I am no racist, even though my entirefamily, along with 110,000 other Japanese-Americans were put behind barbed wire during World War IIwith a totally flagrant disregard for their Constitutional rights. I am no racist, even though racist whitemen dropped nuclear bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki and continue to drop bombs on and devsatatethe land of my Vietnamese brothers and sisters. I am no racist, although I have seen - how my Blackbrothers and sisters have been compelled to live in urban slums or rural shanties under wretched,inhumane conditions. I am no racist, even though I know of how my poor Filipino and Chicano brothersand sisters are forced to work for dirt-poor wages just to be able to maintain the barest level ofsubsistence. I am no racist, even though I know of how the gallant American Indian has been hustledonto reservations or into urban ghettoes. You white people are in no position to be calling any victim ofyour oppression or exploitation a "racist" for pointing out such facts because you are the racists whoinstigated and continue to perpetuate all these problems. I am not, of course, referring to all whitepeopleâ€”just to the great majority whose racist attitudes have been and continue to be responsible forthe plight of non-whites in this country and throughout the world. White America, you have a rotten,decadent society and it is rapidly crumbling. You can no longer fool us with your lies, for we can seethrough your hypocrisy. You can no longer deceive us by calling yourself the leader of the "free world"and pointing an accusing finger at the Portuguese or South Africa. You can no longer fool us by callingyourself a "free society," or a land of opportunity and promise and equality, for we know better. Yoursociety is sinking. You no longer have the military might you once had to support your imperialisticschemes. You may still have planes, and tanks and bombs, but we see you getting whipped in Vietnamby* a bunch of peasants armed with little more than a rifle and a spirit that will overpower you. Yourempire is crumbling and wasting away just as those other white empires, the British, French andSpanish, have fallen. Your old tactics of "divide and conquer" used throughout the world and in thiscountry will no longer work. Your creation of two Korea's and two China's will not last. Your attempt tocreate two Vietnams will not succeed. Your attempt to divide the non-white minorities in this country will also fail as we are starting to come together and recognize that we have a common enemy and youknow who that enemy is. Brother Malcolm X stated that "time is on the side of the oppressed; you don't need anything else." He was right, for your decadent, racist society with its capitalistic economicsystem based upon selfish profit and heartless exploitation along w i t h its u n r e s p o n s i v e,unrepresentative political system will soon cease to exist. In short, all those ideas and conceptsembodied in the American "system" will perish. White America, you cannot survive! You are doomed!And in your place a new society will emerge based upon compassion, cooperation and humanity r a t he r than oppression, exploitation and degredation. ---------- Western Front - 1972 April 18 - Page 8 ---------- â€¢8 Western.

Methods of geological field investigations, use of field instruments and the making of geologic maps are the main purposes ofthe trip. This trip, Geology 410, attempts to give the students some practical experience to go alongwith what they have already learned in the classroom. The first two weeks of the course were spent indiscussions. Earth structure and other things that the geologists would need to know were stressed inthese class sessions. The geologists are scheduled to return to campus a few days before the end ofSpring quarter. Transcripts sent The Registrar's Office sent out over 30,000 student transcripts las year. This transcript service is part of the record section of the Registrar's Office, which contains and updates every Western student's academic chronicle. by KEN OLSEN Construction of the first phase of thenew Northwest Environmental Studies center, future home of Huxley College, will be completed early in1973 if everything goes as planned. The $3.5 million structure is being built just south of the physicalplant. For the past two years Huxley College has been holding classes in old houses on south campus, or wherever extra space could be found. Dean of Huxley Gene Miller feels that the new center will be aboon to environmental studies at Western. "It will finally give us the o p p o r t u n i t y to have a fully-developed program," he said. He added that the new building would be "more that adequate" inaccommodating the growing environmental studies program. Flexibility was the key in planning thecenter, according to Director of Campus Planning Barney Goltz. "It will be more sophisticated thananything we've ever built," Goltz said. "Every room will have access to utilitiesâ€”gas, water, electricity,sewers, compressed air, untreated water and eventually even salt water." The utilities will be providedthrough a large space built into the center of the building. Pipes and ducts will run vertically through thisspace and the various labs and classrooms will be able to tap into them as they are needed. Throughthis plan, coupling on to any of the service systems will be possible at any point in the building. Acontinuous greenhouse will be included on the top floor of t h e building. Carefully: c o n t r o l l e denvironmental conditions will be maintained for plant growth and other experiments. Only 50 per cent ofthe building's interior will be completed in the first phase of the project, according to Miller. He attributed this to a shortage of funds. "However, the extra space will leave plenty of room for expansion," headded. Miller emphasized that the center will not be used strictly for the Huxley program. "The centerwill provide p l e n t y of r o o m for environmental programs in all of Western's departments," he said.The center will eventually be tied in with the Shannon Point Marine Lab, soon to be constructed nearAnacortes. Facilities there will be available sometime in the next two years, according to Miller.Architectural concrete is the basic material being used in construction of the building. The walls will have a texture similar to that of the stairways in Miller and Bond halls. A skybridge will eventually connectthe center to a new social sciences building to be built just to the north. That project is now out forbidding, according to Goltz. UW professor criticizes regulations on fishing by SUE GAWRYS C a n s ta t e s r e g u l a te off-reservation fishing* by Indians? The United States Supreme Court said yes, ifregulations are necessary for conservation purposes. Ralph W. Johnson, University of Washington lawprofessor, d i s a g r e e s . He said last Wednesday that Indian rights to f i s h of f - r e s e r v a t i o nare established through several 19th century treaties between the federal government and differenttribes. According to the U.S. Constitution, treaties are part of the supreme law of the land, Johnsonsaid. "A state has no power to amend the U.S. Constitution, nor can it amend or abrogate a treatyentered into between this nation and some other nation or with an Indian tribe," he said. Only Congresshas the power to regulate off-reservation fishing, he said, and until it does so, the states have noauthority to act. J o h n s o n said that conservation isn't the main reason why Indians are being denied fishing rights. "The main difficulty comes from laws designed to benefit commercial fishermen andsports fisherman and to allocate the catch among these groups," he said. These policies haveconsistently been adverse to the Indians." He said that commercial and sports fishermen have theirinterests represented through various fisheries and game departments, but there is no governmentagency which protects the Indians' interest. weisfields J E W E L E R S * J Belliiighum MallWashington 676-0770 Valu-Mart Center Meaverton 6 4 6 - 6 ) 6* I o s i e r Rd. at 62 nd Portland 777-1461 West 6 t h .

The crisis clinic is a v o l u n t e e r , n o n - p r o f it organizationwhose function is to help people in times of need. The clinic, located in the Campus Christian Ministry(CCM) house, needs to raise about $5,000 above the amount (also $5,000) allotted to them by UnitedGood Neighbors. C r i s i s clinic director Jacqueline Weiner hopes to meet this goal through amembership drive. She said memberships will be available at $5, $20 and $50. Members can attendannual meetings and will receive a quarterly newsletter. A mail-out campaign is planned for the drive.The clinic needs funds for its large phone bill, professional consultants, supplies and travel expenses forvolunteers to speaking engagements. The clinic may also find itself without a base of operations whenthe CCM sells its house to the college and moves to a new building to be constructed at the corner ofHighland Drive and Morey. Avenue. The new building will not have enough space to accommodate theclinic. Crisis clinic volunteers, 45 to 50 people from all walks of life, handle about 600 calls a month.Weiner said only about five per cent of these are drug calls. The largest proportion of calls involveemotional problems, " i n t e r p e r s o n a l problems," general information and referral, concern forothers and no response. Suicide, a major factor in the formation of the original crisis clinics of the1960s, accounts for only about one per cent of the calls received at the clinic, Weiner said. She saidthat out of six suicide calls, about three are considering it, two are threats and one is an actual attempt. About half of the drug calls are for referral and information only, while the rest involve direct contact withsomeone having an unpleasant drug experience. Volunteers are trained to assure the caller that t h eexperience is only temporary. "People on drugs are highly suggestible," Weiner said. "They believealmost anything a volunteer tells them." The emotional problem calls involve people who are depressed,anxious or confused. "He is not so much concerned with some kind of problem with somebody else,"Weiner said, "but with something in himself." "He doesn't know where they want to go," she added. I n t e r p e r s o n a l problems involve mostly adolescents with friend, parent or girl-boy friend problems.Other calls in this category deal with marital, family and love relationships. No response or hang up calls occur when "people lose their nerve," Weiner said, citing a recent survey conducted by the Vancouver,B.C. crisis clinic. She calls this a "prelude to a call" since these people usually call back. She saidvolunteers are trained to handle emergency situations without saying "calm down" or "I'll solve it for you." "They (the callers) have to start working out their own problems," she said. "Saying 'I'll solve it for you'is just like saying 'You're weak.' " Volunteers must show " r e a s s u r a n c e , warmth andconsistency" when dealing with callers. Training sessions are held every couple months depending onthe volunteers' need. One-day seminars are conducted for two consecutive weekends, and they get veryintense during simulated emergency calls, Weiner said. At the sessions, "community building"exercises help people "get in touch with themselves," a practice that Weiner thinks is important in"bringing out feelings" in the caller. The clinic also helps with medical emergencies, legal aid andemergency transportation. Water won't be gushing out of Fisher Fountain in Red Square probably untilafter July 1. The submersed motor burned up and it will cost $740 to replace it. Maintenance SupervisorWilliam Harrison said funds won't be available until after July 1 for replacement.

The Wildcats won Friday's game, 4-2, and took bothends of Saturday's doubleheader, winning by identical 3-1 scores, the second game going 10 innings.The losses ran Western's losing streak to six, as the Big Blue's season record stands at 4-6, with a 1-6Evco slate. Friday, Central scored one run in the eighth and two more in the ninth to break a 1-1 tie forthe win. The Vikings had tied it in the sixth, and scored another in the ninth, but the last-gasp rally fellshort. The Wildcats opened scoring in the fourth when R. J. Williams walked on four straight Don Balkepitches and moved to third on a hit-and-run play by Dave Hopkes. Bob Utecht's single then scoredWilliams. Western knotted the score when Wayne Martin singled, moved to third on a Central error andwild pitch, and scored on a sacrifice fly by Rocky Jackson.

The Viks made an effort to tie it in their half of the ninth, when Jackson openedwith a double off the center field fence. Two outs later, he scored on a single by Keith Reynvaan, but the rally died with Reynvaan on second. Western managed six hits, more than in both games combined ofthe double header. Balke was pinned with the loss, his second of the year. Schulte got the win, strikingout eight Vikings in doing so. Saturday, Western jumped to a quick 1 -0 lead as Pete Johnson openedthe Vik half of the first with a walk and scored on a passed ball and a Wildcat error. Central tied it in thefourth on a Vandersys single, followed by a Williams double, and won it with two in the sixth with threeconsecutive singles by Hopkes, Utecht and Kelly. Western had only two hits in that game, a single bypitcher Leo Gauthier and another by Porterfield. Central's AU-Evco pitcher Dave Heaverlo fanned eight,while Gauthier struck out five in five and two-thirds innings work. In the. second game, a Vik strategicalplot backfired to give the, defending Evco champs the win. With the score tied in the tenth at 1-1 andWildcats on second and third, Viking coach Larry Vance ordered Central's Williams intentionally walked, to face catcher Hopkes. Hopkes responded with a sharp single to left on the first pitch to score tworuns which won the game.

' The Vikings won seven out of17 events and scored two times which are now the leading small college times in the Northwest. JimMagee, sophomore sprinter, won the 100-yd. dash in 9.7 seconds, just one-tenth of a second off theWestern record of 9.6 set in 1939. There were a couple of 9.6 times recorded in Ellensburg Saturday,but they were wind-aided. Mike Vorce, junior hurdler, won the 440-yd. intermediate hurdles in 54.1seconds to lower his already district leading time. Vorce and Magee won their events in last year'sEvergreen Conference meet. The Vik win came on the heels of a 921/2-521/2 drubbing at the hands ofthe University of Puget Sound Thursday in Tacoma. S a t u r d a y ' s meet was highlighted by the 247-7 javelin throw of the Huskies' Fred Luke.

Timothy Bottoms and Jeff B r i d g e s turn in fineperformances as two boys trying to grow up in a small Texas town in the early 1950's. Anarene is asmall, drab town in the middle of nowhere. There is little to do except shoot pool and drink Dr. Pepper.On weekends there are the movies at the local theater. But television has come to Anarene; full-timefantasies now instead of a double of hours down at the theater. Guys growing up in Anarene haven'tmuch in the way of models. There's Sam the Lion who owns the theater and the pool hall, but he's notaround when the boys need him the most. The girls are just as drab as the town. For them there is little to do except get married and try to escape while they're still young. People grow old fast in Anarene."The Last Picture Show" was shot in black and white to intensify the drabness of the town and to set the mood for the film. Ben Johnson (Sam the Lion) and CI oris Leachman won Academy awards for bestsupporting actor and actress. The film, sometimes lapsing i n t o s e n t i m e n t a l i t y , is n o n e t he l e s s an accurate rendition of life in a small town w h e r e everybody knows everybody else and "You can't sneeze without someone else Pandas arrive at National loo WASHINGTON UPI-Two healthypandas, gifts of Premier Chou En iai of China to the American people, arrived from Peking Sunday.

"The Last Picture Show" is currently playing at the Viking I Theatre. "TheFrench Connection," supposedly the best picture of 1971, is playing at the Mt. Baker Theater. ."FrenchConnection" is a fast-moving police thriller that's rather abrasive on the viewer. Gene Hackman playsPopeye Doyle, a touch cop who harasses Blacks, chases people through New York and shoots FBIagents. All in a day's work. The movie doesn't end, it stops. "The French Connection" is a nice rush, butultimately empty. Showing with "The French Connection" is an intriguing little movie, "Vanishing Point." Perhaps more aptly titled "Vanishing Plot" this is an interesting movie to watch. B a r r y Newman plays Kowalski, a driver racing from Denver to San Francisco on a bet. But it's more than that, just how much more the audience is never really told. The high-speed driving and the chase scenes between Kowalskiand the cops are exciting to watch. Forget the plot, if there is one, and just sit back and watch"Vanishing Point." Instead of a ride to the Bellingham Police Department, suspects of shoplifting couldbe. released after receiving a citation similar to a traffic ticket if the police use a new procedure. ChiefCecil B. Klein said that his department is checking into a system using "field releases," which wouldfree his men to more important duties in the city. On an average day, Klein estimated that between twoand four runs are made by police officers in answer to shoplifting calls. Many stores in Bellinghamemploy retail security agents that watch for shoplifters, and detain the suspect' for a city officer. Atpresent, the police will take the suspect downtown f o r booking or release, depending on thecircumstances or person. T SEND THE J" J- Front J J HOME J J 676-3160 J fMMMMMMMJ Â¥ Â¥ .â€¢ Â¥ Â¥ ?

I School Meaningful for Biafran Girl Whether it be isolating a cure for cancer or opening up their own pizza parlor, moststudents have a purpose of some kind behind their education." Christina Okeke, soon to complete ahome economics program at Western, knows all too well where her knowledge will be needed. Christymanaged to leave her homeland of Biafra in September of 1967 in order to study in the United States.Although she had a student â€¢ visa and travel tickets before the recent Biafran-Nigerian conflict broke-out, her departure from Arochukwu, which now lies in East-Central Nigeria, was delayed by the war. Her husband had already left the country and was studying at the University of Washington. Christy taughtelementary school until she was able to leave. After spending a year at Seattle Pacific College, theOkekes' money ran short and Christy looked for help. Bent, a former foreign student advisor at Western,promised her a scholarship, funded by individual donors. She accepted, but soon after she began in1968, Bent left Western and the Home Economics Department took over the responsibility of Christy'sfinancial aid. Christy's studies include what she considers a broad knowledge of home economics: foods and nutrition, f a m i l y r e l a t i o n s , consumei economics, sewing and home furnishing. Christy has expressed concern about the depressed condition of the Biafran nation, which since the war's end inJanuary of this year, is now called Nigeria. The lack of food caused by the war has killed millions ofBiafrans. Many Biafrans have no home and are still living in camps. But, perhaps w o r s t of all, theNigerian Government will not accept Biafran money. This means that Biafrans have no way of rebuildingtheir homes and businesses. "Things are getting better though, at least no one is being killed," Christysaid. She chose home economics primarily because of the great nutritional needs of the Biafran people. She plans to return home in about two years, after her husband completes his Ph.D. in economics.Christy said she has had no real problems in the U.S. except for lack of money, and that she hasgenerally found the people at Western very friendly. The home economics department has raised money for Christy's expenses through events such as rummage sales and gt; gifts from individuals. Designand Low Economy May Crumble UW High Dorm A 39-story dormitory for the University of Washington(UW) has run 'into two stumbling blocks that could either delay or cancel the project, according to theUW Daily. The high-rise dorm, to be located two blocks west of the UW campus, if it is built, wasproposed earlier this year by Scope Corporation of Menlo Park, Calif., at an estimated cost of $9 million. The problems facing the project involve the stagnant economic situation and the proposed design,according to a Scope official. A low e c o n o m i c mood discouraging investment coupled with highinterest rates have combined to c a t c h the California-based corporation in a squeeze, Howard LaGarde said. Further complicating the start of construction is the reaction of Seattle people involved in the project. Some discussion has arisen concerning the proposed design and La Garde said revisions mayhave to be made. Where does this leave the high-rise superdorm? At the moment no one really knows,according to the Daily. Winter quarter parking permits will be sold on a renewal basis only Nov. 23through Dec. 4 at the Security Office. Regular sales will resume on a regular basis on Dec. 7. TwelveHour Pucker The world kissing championship belongs to a Whatcom County girl and a KingstonJamaica boy at Eastern. Beverly Hallmark and Horace Francis claimed the title after 12 straight hours of kissing at Cheney last week. The previous record of 9 hours and 11 minutes was held by a couple atSouthwestern Texas State College. Miss Hallmark, a freshman, and Francis, a sophomore found eatinga little difficult without parting lips during the 12-hour contest. Girls square off in senior division debatefinals, Debate Tourney Intense Lewis and Clark College (LCC) won the sweepstakes trophy over Seattle Pacific College (SPC) in a debate tournament sponsored by Western last Friday and Saturday. SPCdropped into a point tie with LCC after losing the final round of senior debate to Oregon State University.LCC won on higher p l a c e m e n t t h r o u g h o u t the tournament. Western debaters disqualified t he m s e l v e s from the home tournament, through some competed in preliminary rounds. Most wereinvolved in running the tournament. Competition for top prizes in the tournament was intense with vthe six top teams being Lewis and Clark, Seattle Pacific, Oregon State, Eastern Oregon, Oregon College ofEducation and Washington State University. A total of 23 teams were entered. Western is also planningto host a high school tournament Dec. 4 and 5. Attendance is expected to be between 700 and 800students..

Marshall Team Killed in Crash The collegefootball scene was hit with its second plane crash within two months Saturday, when a twin-jet Southern Airways DC9 carrying Marshall University's football team crashed near Kenova, West Virginia. Theplane carrying 70 passengers, including rooters and a crew of five, slammed into the side of a small hilland exploded at about 7:40 p.m. State Police and Federal Aviation Agency spokesmen said thereappeared to be no survivors. This was the second tragedy of the fall. On Oct. 2, one of two charteredplanes earring Wichita State University's football team and rooters, crashed in the mountains ofColorado, killing 31 persons.

He conveyed these desires in a p r o d u c t i o n t h a t was thought-quenching, mind-stirring and well performed. The quote was one of many heard in the Western Theatre's finalpresentation of "The Night Thoreau Spent in Jail" in the college auditorium. Thoreau, played by KellyFranett, was depicted as a man who couldn't understand why others didn't defend their own convictionslike he did. The Western Theatre's style of presentation was simple and convincing. When the audience entered, the curtain was already open and only five pieces of furniture and a network of bars were oncenter stage. These things remained the same as the players utilized all portions of the stage andlighting effects separated trains of thought and message. The acting was well done and interesting at all times. There were no typical breaks in the performance to divide scenes and acts. This provided anintrigue that held the attention of the audience. The ethical conflict which showed itself throughout theplay was between Thoreau and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Emerson was also a deep thinker but doubtedhis own convictions. Thoreau was Emerson's handyman and lived at famed Walden pond during hisemployment. "There's plenty of company and no people," said Thoreau of his beloved Walden. Emerson remarked of the philosopher, "He doesn't want anything, perhaps he wants too much." The mainconflict here then, was that one man stood and spoke (Emerson), while the other spoke and stood(Thoreau). " I 'm a weed myself," said Thoreau. "Society's run amok against me." In a comment writtenby Lawrence and Lee, co-authors of the play, Thoreau was seen as a man who loved so deeply andcompletely that he seemed, sometimes, not to have loved at a l l . . . a man who wasâ€”and is. To allwho listened Thoreau insisted, "Being is more important than living. Even though a person stops living,he continues to be." "Just because I tell you to do something, doesn't mean you should do it,'r heexplained. "Give me s o m e t h i n g m a g n i f i c e n t ly uncommon." In the eloquence of his silence,he was a self-effacing giant. Lawrence and Lee saw Thoreau as a man belonging more to the 1970's than to the age in which he lived. His outcries were drawn closely in comparison to the anger of many youngpeople today. "Don't just remember what I'm saying," he said, "remember what I'm talking about." Hestrove to communicate transcendency. Through interaction with the rest of the cast and the audienceitself, Thoreau gave insight to several abstracts: government and law; politics and war; technology andecology; institutions and education; marriage and retirement; religion and atheism. He was disgusted bythe lies and confusion which clouded the bloody conflict with a smaller nation, Mexico, in a war whichwas waged by President Polk without permission of Congress. Thoreau was put in jail because herefused to pay taxes which he felt were being used for an unjust war. Echoing implications pointedtowards the Vietnam-Cambodian situations of today. Lawrence and Lee summed it up eloquently insaying, "We are concerned about THE NOW THOREAU-the explosive spirit who addressed himself tothe perils of our time with more power and clarity than most angry young men writing now about NOW.". The Western Theatre did a fine job of presenting the poetic protests of one of America's freest men.Gals Want Out (CPS)-Women want out of the home, according to a survey conducted in February byGilbert Youth Research, a division of Gilbert Marketing Group. Surveying thousands of young womenbetween the ages of 14 and 25, the opinion-research organization found that fewer than one per cent ofthe college women polled selected "housewife-housemaker" as their main career choice. Only four percent of all young women chose it. Win a Ski Week at JACKSON HOLE with Suzy Chaffee and PepiStiegler Imagine skiing the "Gentle Giant," Jackson Hole, with Suzy Chaffee and Pepi Steigler.

Eligible Men Go 1-A (CPS)-Any man who is now deferred", and who would be in the lottery selection pool for induction if he were not deferred, now has a method to take advantage of his high lottery number and use it to escape the draft. Under an advisory memorandum sent by National Selective Service Director Curtis Farr to all local draftboards recently, such men may v o l u n t a r i l y relinquish their deferments and enter the 1-A pool.Prior to this time, this matter had been open to debate, and draft boards were supposed to maintain allregistrants in their deferments as long as they continued to qualify for them. SSS spokesmen are quiteconfident that no registrant with a lottery number higher than 195 will be called this year, unless there isa declaration of war or a national emergency which requires massive mobilization. At the end of the year, those men whose numbers have not been reached by their local boards and who are classified 1-A, 1-A-O or 1-0 are moved to a second priority pool. Men have not been called from this second priority pool orits equivalent under the old system since the Korean War. Registrants with high numbers who wish totake advantage of this opportunity to take the draft off their backs may write a brief letter to their draftboard asking to be reclassified 1-A immediately. Any registrant who does so is taking a chance that thesystem might suddenly decide that it needs many more men than it is presently planning to take, andshould think carefully about this possibility, however slight. It does appear, from all indications presentlyavailable, that the ceiling of 195 will be valid. This rule only effects men who turned 19 or older duringcalendar year 1969. Those turning 19 this year were not in the first priority pool and therefore will beplaced in it on January 1, 1971. Therefore, this escape route is dangerously uncertain for men not yet inthis year's pool who are under 20 years old. Next year's lottery ceiling number could be any number atall, and no one can make any predictions about it. WHO CAUSES PREGNANCY? It takes two to tango.

If you want to go to theconcert you will pay $3 in advance or $4 at the door. At that price you deserve to see what you arelistening to. Cold Blood was the last concert in Carver Gymnasium on the 30th of September.Remember what happened? The people in the front of the gym were standing up digging the music whilepeople in the back were building up anger because they couldn't see the band. Soon shouts werecoming from the back of the gym: "Soooooooooooooowheeeeeeeee! Oink! Oink! You pigs better sitdown!" "Ah, shut up," was the reply. "You people in the front are just a bunch of capitalists," oneangered patron i screamed. "Tough luck," laughed the gent as he continued his soul dancing in front ofthe stage. Soon threats of violence were being tossed back and forth between the opposite ends of thegym. "You're going to get your head busted if you don't sit down," bellowed another angered patron."Keep cool, man, just keep cool," was the answer from the front. Voices were getting louder, chants of"sit down, sit down," filled the room, the atmosphere was tense. Luckily, the concert ended beforepatience did. Recall what happened to the "Mayor Daley Peace Concerts" this summer in the publicparks of Chicago?

Editor: This letter is in response to Richard C. Connally's letter in the Friday,November 13 edition of the Western Front. In the process of campaigning, and in rapping with studentsaround campus, several issues were brought to our attention which apparently are bothersome to somestudents. It was our pledge, during the campaign, to investigate as many of these problems as possibleto determine the facts or fallacies. I submit that if anything bothers even one student, it is worthinvestigating. H o p e f u l l y , the C o o p er administration will be one of problem solving. Byinvestigation of these issues, we hope to come before the students and present to them facts which _substantiate the "beef and belly aches" or to eliminate them. But this can be done only if the campuscommunity ceases to be petty and begins to try to understand our approach. If Mr. Connally, or anyoneelse on this campus, feels there exist problems not currently being dealt with, I would urge them tocome to the ASB offices and, with their help and ideas, we'll all attempt to solve them.

Thenation's public colleges and universities have grown so overcrowded in recent years that there is justifiable concern that, they have slipped further away from intellectual validity and relevance than ever anticipated. A close re-examination of every aspect of college life would undoubtedly confirm our belief that the off-campus student has suffered the most during this tumultuous period of radical transformation within ourhigher education system. Despite the glaring fact that the off-campus community now claims aboutthree-fourths of the total student enrollment at Western, conspicuously minor college attention has beenfocused at alleviating the unique academic and social commuter student needs. Every major program toassist the off-campus student, including the Tenants Union and the Housing Commission, has beenstudent originated and maintained. While limited student attempts at meeting the rising non-dormieneeds have been highly successful, many major off-campus student problems remain virtually untouched. The on-campus student has his own social groups and activities which provide excellent opportunities tomix with a large number of other students with diversified interests and philosophies. But studies haveshown that the off-campus student usually limits his social contacts to a comparatively small group ofclose friends, old high school pals and family. If there is any validity to the theory that more educationtakes place in the social context than in the classroom, then the off-campus student is unquestionablyshort-changed. The Off-Campus Interhouse Community has been unsuccessful in bringing together anysignificant numbers of commuter students for social activities. OCIC Vice President Bob Burnett admitsthat more on-campus students participated in the OCIC-sponsored Dating Game, for instance, than off-campus students. The off-campus student living environment is radically different than dorm life. Many ofthose students who live at home in Bellingham must cope with a family which too often forgets thatcollege demands more study time and quiet than high school. In addition, married students with a youngchild or two have their hands and ears full. We need not elaborate about those students who live inovercrowded housing where upwards of a dozen students come and go at all hours of the day and night.So what can we do to help the commuter student who walks four blocks or drives 80 miles to and fromclasses here every weekday? Several major universities on the Eastern seaboard are planning off-campus commuter student "outposts" which will provide a host of services ranging from study carrels, meetingrooms and lounges to food services, club offices and counseling stations. Here at Western we wouldwelcome the construction of an off-campus student center providing quiet study rooms; offices for theTenants Union, OCIC and the Housing Commission; lockers to store books and personal belongingsbetween classes; a day-care center for commuter students' children; a terminus point for citytransportation services; and a lounge where off-campus students can interrelate. Admittedly, this is not amodest proposal, but modest proposals have a way of being quickly forgotten.

Western-Front,, 5 Burlington's Multi-Service Center Jackie Zavale (left),Center's coordinator Third of Series Migrants' Only Way Out is Thru Self-Help By STEVE JOHNSTONOne thing migrant workers share with other minority and low income groups is a frustration over the lackof something being done to ease their plight. The . federal government pours millions of dollars intocommittees to study the migrants' problems, but after the reports are published, very little is done tohelp solve these problems on a grassroot level. For, unlike the other minority groups, the migrants are ina unique situation. Other minorities have, if nothing else, the power of the vote and are able to form some sort of a (M I YOU'RE WELCOME AT to Come In , See Our Selections . Fashions . Gifts . Posters .Candies .

Holly, Downtown 734-5100 political body that will have a say in their destiny, while the migrants,especially the older generation, are rarely American citizens. They are just people who live their lives inthe U.S. on temporary visas. And the migrant who is an American citizen still has a problem in voting.Like a man without a country, he is a person without a state, constantly moving from harvest to harvest,never setting up a permanent residency. For an example, Washington's residency requirement to vote is11 months, but the average migrant stays here only three months. So migrants are unable to have anysay in the politics governing their lives. Even the organizations set up to help low income families arehaving a hard time helping the migrant family. Jackie Zavale, coordinator for the Multi-Service Center inBurlington admitted that the center wasn't doing much to help the migrants. "Theyvre never here longenough for us to help them," Zavale said. But, he said the center is working on helping the stationaryfield worker by: $2335 P.O.E. When you drive the Fiat 850 Spider the going is the fun.

The center receives $40,000from the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) for yearly operating expenses. About half of this moneygoes for salaries (besides Zavale, there are two other staff members), with the rest going to adultclasses in English, a general education class and an arts and crafts class for teenagers. Zavale waspresident of the board that founded the center and before that he worked â€¢ at Northern State Hospitalin Sedro Woolley. He said he was elected as coordinator because "the people wanted someone from the community." Presently, Zavale is working on setting up a community center and taco stand inBurlington. After the taco stand gets going shares will be sold "with all the profits going to the people,"Zavale said. "The stand will provide jobs for some more people," Zavale said. But they need $750 to get it going for the first few months. Zavale said it is a problem getting his programs across to the people. He added that the center isn't just for the Mexican American but for all low income families. But the peoplewho the center is supposed to be helping are painting another picture of the center. "They stand aroundall day with their hands in their pockets and their coats over their shoulders," complains Mier De Leon,the wife of a stationary field worker in Burlington. Her husband, Jesus De Leon, agrees the center isn'tdoing anything to help them. "Everytime we go in. there, they just ignore us," he said. He went on tosay he has never heard of anyone from the center visiting the Mexican American homes. De Leon saidlast year his daughter came up from California and tried to get temporary housing for her family. De Leon said the center wouldn't help. Even outward appearances tend to get De Leon's goat. He complainedthat certain members of the center's staff always had a new car. Also that the center's director doesn'tspeak Spanish well enough to communicate with. De Leon said the center doesn't talk over theMexican American's problem with people who can help. He said that on Oct. 18 four state senators andCongressman Lloyd Meeds came to a meeting in Burlington to talk about the migrant workers' problems. De Leon said that no one from the center would stand up and present their grievances, instead a fieldworker who could speak English had to act as their spokesman. The list of gripes against the Multi-Service Center seems endless and whether or not these charges are valid or just sour grapes will besubstantiated in a survey to take place next month. A Western student, who asked to remainanonymous, plans to ask each low-income family what they think of the center and if they have foundthe center to be helpful. His findings in his survey will be a guide to what action he'll take. If the surveyshows an overall discontentment with the center and legitimate complaints, then he'll have several routes opened to him. One would be making suggestions to the center on things to improve based on what the people said. Another, more drastic, would try to have the federal grant from OEO pulled. Either way the student goes, he seems to be going in the right direction: motivating the Mexican Americans into theirown political force and bringing pressure to bear to help correct their plight. * * * Friday's issue: Thehousing and health authorities.

Manfred Kuerstan broke up the scoreless deadlock, scoring a goal just before the first-half ended. The Vikings' strong defensivecorps, led by Donn James, then made Kuerstan's goal stand up, as they shut-out BCIT. James came upwith several game saving plays. Up to Kuerstan's goal, the game proved to be a tight, defensive contest. The Vik booters opened up their attack in the second-half, but failed to increase their lead because ofseveral missed shots. Western, 4-0-3, needs to win one of its next two games to clinch the conferencetitle. The Vik booters could wrap up the championship tonight, when Western takes on the University ofWashington in Seattle. In their last meeting, the two teams tied 1-1.

Title Hopes Fade Central Dumps Western By PAUL MADISON For three quartersWestern's Viking football team waged a titanic battle with Central Washington before the Wilcats brokeit open with two touchdowns in the final period to take a 24-7 victory last Saturday afternoon atBellingham's Civic Stadium. The win all but clinched the Evergreen Conference (Evco) title for theEllensburg eleven. Central is now 4-0 in league play and Western 4-1. This weekend both play two of the league's weaker clubs. Central takes on Southern Oregon (1-8) while the Vikings host Oregon Tech (0-8) at 1:30 p.m. Saturday in Civic Stadium. A defensive struggle developed in the first quarter as the twoteams tested each other. Western drove to the Central 23 yard-line late in the quarter before their attackstalled. Central marched 77 yards from that point for the only first half scoring which came at 14:12 ofthe second quarter. Wildcat quarterback Jeff Short completed a clutch third-down pass to flankerbackChris Thorsen for 11 yards and with the running of halfback Cal Allen got the ball to the Viking 30-yardline. T h e n Short launched a touchdown pass to halfback Greg Smith, who caught it on the 5-yard lineand scampered into the end zone. Kicker Keith Gundlefinger booted the first of three straight extrapoints for a 7-0 Central lead. Western missed a golden scoring opportunity later in the quarter. TheViking defense pushed Central back to their own 4-yard line from where they punted out to the 30.Quarterback Glenn Hadland passed to halfback Jody Miller who ran to the Wildcat 18. Then Western'sleading receiver Steve Jasmer dropped a pass in the end zone. The Vikings tried to salvage a field goalbut the 33-yard attempt by Lance Wilson was short and off to the left. Central once more went on themarch and got to the Viking's 37-yard line before safety Vic Randall intercepted a Short pass. Westernmarched 89 yards-their first time with the ball in the second half to knot the score. All yardage came onthe ground as Miller and Tom Wigg rambled through the Wildcat defense for long gains. Wigg, on asweep, went 15 yards to the Central 3-yard line where Miller plunged over for a touchdown. Wilsonkicked the extra'point. Randall intercepted his second pass minutes later but the Viking offense stalledand a poor punt gave Central great field position on Western's 32-yard line. The Viking defense- held but Gundlefinger kicked a 28-yard field goal to put Central in the lead 10-7. With seconds left in the thirdquarter Western linebacker Dan Grimshaw made a sensational interception and ran it back 35 yards tothe Central 27-yard line. Then- the game's turning point came as on Western's first play Wildcatdefensive end Kim Hoel intercepted Hadland's pass. Central then showed their offensive running powerwith Allen and Smith ripping through big holes. Smith had two 16-yard gainers in the 66 yard marchwhich was capped by Allen on a 1-yard plunge. Late in the contest Central defensive halfback GregEmry intercepted a halfback pass by Jim Johnston to set up Central's final touchdown. Again it was therunning of Smith and Allen and the powerful Central line that did the job. Smith scored on an 8-yard runto make the final 24-7. Western was deep in Central territory with seconds remaining when LonniePierson intercepted reserve quarterback Marshall Torre's pass on the Central 1-yard line. In all, Smithrushed for 104 yards on 23 carries while receiving 2 passes for 24 yards and 1 touchdown. Allen carried20 times for 134 yards. Hadland completed 9 of 23 passes for 94 yards. Jasmer caught 2 for 42 yards,Dan Bunten 2 for 25 and Miller 2 for 16. A handicap doesn't have to be a hangup.

NBC Viks Place Third By BOB TAYLOR Western's cross country team swept to astartling third place in the District I cross country meet sponsored by Eastern Washington last Saturday. In a cross country season that hasn't been overly successful for Western, the Vik harriers came upwith their best effort yet. Western, led by the inspired effort of Kelly Stecker, totaled 51 points. CentralWashington, which captured the Evergreen Conference (Evco) championship two weeks ago, also wonthe District I title. The Wildcats finished with 37 points. Eastern was second with 42. Other schoolsparticipating were: Whitman, fifth with 122; Pacific Lutheran, sixth with 137; and Whitworth finishedseventh. Whitworth's points were not calculated by press time. The Pirates who did not send a full team, were further handicapped when their top runner Bob Isitt did not compete. Stecker, who finished 27ththe week before in the Evco finals, shocked rival coaches by finishing fifth and bettering his previousweek's time by more than two minutes. Stecker was clocked 25:06 less than a minute off the secondbest time of the day. Bob Mapplestone of Eastern won the five-mile Turnbull Park course, finishing firstin 24:01. Mapplestone, one of the best small college distance runners in the Northwest, will now test his talents in the NAIA championships. Joe Ross, also of Eastern, finished second in 24:47. The top 10runners in the Cheney meet were: Terry Kelly of Central, who finished third; Barry Jahn of Eastern,fourth; Bill Bloom of Central, sixth; Scott Taylor of Western, seventh; Steve Curd of Central, eighth; Terry Rice of Central, ninth; and Tim Tubbs of Western, 10th. Taylor was clocked in 25:21, while Tubbs wastimed in 25:37. Other Vikings competing in the meet were: Paul Scovel, 14th in 26:02; DanaBlankenship, 18th in 26:19; Fred New, 23rd in 26:52; and John Hymas, 25th in 27:23. The performanceof the Vik harriers was very pleasing for Coach Dick'Bowman, who the week before watched this sameteam finish sixth in Evco. All the Vik runners improved on their previous week's time by at least aminute. This Saturday, Western concludes its season by hosting a United States Track and FieldFederation meet.

Thirteencountries from the western hemisphere were represented at the seminar sponsored by the WorldOrganization for Early Childhood Education. The educators exchanged ideas and plans related to earlychildhood education. Mrs. Wills presented a paper to the teacher training section describing the projectin Teacher Trainers she is directing at Western. She believed the South American countries wereunimpressed and that it would take a while for them to accept any changes in their school systems.Mrs. Wills visited preschools public schools and teacher training schools in Mexico and surroundingareas. She said that the school system is quite rigid-the curriculum is inflexible and students do not have their choice of classes. "In the kindergartens and nursery schools, the focus is on the health andwelfare of the young children-education is second," she said. The children all wear blue smocks andwhite shoes and the rooms are spotless. After high school, which ends after ninth grade, Mexicanstudents go on to training colleges. At 18 or 19 they are considered adults and are ready to beginteaching. "At training colleges, everyone takes the same work," Mrs. Wills said. "And students acceptthis willingly." She believes Mexican students would not fit in our culture,which is moving more towarddiversity. She said that Argentina was especially interested in the American school system and ways toimprove their schools. It was suggested that they use parents as teacher aides, as many Americanpublic schools do. Other countries were afraid to try the change because parents are not welcome inschools. The countries exchanged materials and Mrs. Wills brought back ideas for new crafts, songs,games and arts. Mrs. Wills said that everyone seemed enthusiastic about the seminar and she ishoping for more opportunities for exchanges.

That is the question.Students at Eastern Washington State College are eagerly awaiting an answer from the board oftrustees. A petition supporting an on-campus pub, unanimously endorsed by the Associated StudentsCouncil, will be presented to the board Dec. 12. Doug Stewart, who started the p e t i t i o n ,accumulated 2,628 signatures in three days-accounting for 43 per cent of the full-time students inresidence. The beer petition received a larger vote than the student elections. Only 1,652 studentsturned out to elect their leaders. Doug Stewart said: "I guess the results speak for themselves on whatthe students want the most." Walt Zabel, director of student activities commented on location of thepub:!"Althoughmost are thinking Draff Pledge Nearly 15,500 draft cards flooded the selective servicesystem in one week-the week following President Nixon's march into Cambodia. According to theChristian Century, induction refusals totaled over 10,000 in January 1970. In Oakland, the rate ofinduction refusals is perched at the fifty per cent mark. Out of the current 21,194 federal prisoners, morethan 500 are Selective Service violaters. Bellingham Draft Resistance is presently working along withother draft resistance groups throughout the U.S. to obtain a coalition of 100,000 men. When thatnumber is reached, the men will return their draft cards to the Selective Service System. The pledge,currently being circulated on the campus by draft resistance members, was instigated by Smith WantsLarger Role For Students A more defined role of students and policy makers in the Viking Union is oneof the goals of John J. Smith, new assistant director of operations of the Viking Union. "Before startinganything I first want to see how things have been operating," Smith said when he came to Western.Getting the Viking Union building functioning and involving more students is another of Smith's goals.The new VU staff member has been working with students at various colleges since 1967 in counseling,placement, guidance, residence programs and student unions. Smith received his masters degree instudent personnel services from New York University in June, 1969, and since July,4969 was theassistant director of operations at Rutgers University Student Center. the Union for National DraftOpposition. It states: My signatures on this pledge means three things: A. I feel that the present draftsystem in America is in violation of my constitutional rights and/or immoral. B. I pledge, that when100*000 draftable men have signed pledges' like this, I will return my draft card to my local or nationalresistance headquarters where they will be forwarded with the other returned cards to the properauthorities. I pledge that after that time I will cease to cooperate with any type of draft system in anyway. C. I recognize that I am in no way immune from Federal prosecution either for resisting the draft orconspiring to resist the draft. in terms of the den in the new Pence Union Building as the site for a beerfacility, I think it should be pointed out that there will also be plenty of room in the present Student Union Building winter quarter." Several tavern proprietors in Cheney were asked about a beer den on campus.Warren Moss, from Kelly's Tavern, echoed the feelings of most: "Business would depreciate for us if atavern were opened at the college." The petition will not go to the Student Personnel Council forconsideration -before it is presented to the board.

The commission said colleges and kniversities that admitfreshmen from Ihe top 10 per cent of high school llasses had more reaction than schools with openadmission policies. The study made no comment on this finding. In the most selective schools, therewere these reactions: 35 per cent had student strikes of one day or longer, 80 per cent had studentcampaigns to communicate with local residents about the war, 79 per cent had peaceful demonstrationsand 9 per cent violent demonstrations. Schools with open admissions had these reactions: 9 per centstrikes, 33 per cent campaigns, 41 per cent peaceful demonstrations and 5 per cent violentdemonstrations.

If tuition and room and board rates goup next year, the low income student will receive an increase in financial aids to make up the difference. However, the student whose parents have a middle income of between $9,000 and $13,000 will have hisfinancial aid money cut to compensate for the increase in low-income benefits.'s7/ZM'j //anys/y/y//s/M^^ GETAWAY by Greyhound Go Greyhound on GETAWAY weekends,holidays, semester-breaks, or anytime.

Savitch, who had beenappointed to the committee by ASB President Steve Cooper, was informed by chairman Donald R.Kjarsgaard that he would be an observer only and his opinions would hold little weight compared to other members. "They were saying that students shouldn't be able to help make cuts b e c a u s e ofinexperience in budgeting." The non-academic budget committee has been established by the collegepresident to study the present financial crisis and see where cuts could be made and where theycouldn't safely be chopped. The results of their findings are to be forwarded to President Charles J. Flora. "I was not anticipating that the entire subject would be closed regarding student representation," Brocksaid. Brock said that the committee was to include representatives from the faculty, administration, staffand students and "informally" everyone would be working together. Brock said that if the committee held its stand on the student representation limitation that he would "prefer not to be on the committe. But, if it's a choice between my job and the committee, then I'd have to be a member."

The p e l l e t s - w h i ch shallow-feeding waterfowl confuse with grit-generatetoxic fluids in the b i r d s ' gizzards resulting in debilitation and frequent death. "The average hunter firesfive shots for every duck he bags," says Frank C. Bellrose, Jr. of the Illinois Natural History Survey. "Asmany as 1,400 pellets may be deposited on waterfowl hunting grounds for every duck killed."Researchers scooped up 118,000 lead pellets "per acre from the bottom of Wisconsin's Lake Puckawayaccording to Frank Graham in his article "Giving Guns a Shot of Iron" appearing in the May 19, 1969issue ; of Sports Illustrated. Sixty thousand per acre were found on the bottomÂ« of marshes alongCalifornia's San Joaquin River, and 64,000 an acre at Heron Lake, Minnesota. The problem of lead shotpoisoning in waterfowl is nothing new. Warnings that waterfowl losses caused by lead poisoning mightshorten duck hunting seasons or force bag limit reductions were first issued to ammunition producers by the Director of the U.S. Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife (BSFW) in 1965. And the Sporting Armsand Ammunition Manufacturers' Institute (SAAMI, the trade association of ammunition and firearmsproducers) quickly got the message. Though lead had long been criticized as a toxic pollutant, itsperformance in shotshells was superb. What SAAMI hoped to do with a grant issued to the IllinoisInstitute of Technology was come up with a lead modification. Something that would retain lead'sexcellent ballistic characteristics but eliminate its toxic effect. Several years and $100,000 later,SAMMI shook its head in b e w i l d e r m e n t . After trying bio-chemical additives for lead that mightrender it harmless in waterfowl systems, plated or coated lead shot, and lead-iron-plastic composites, itwas pretty clear that lead was simply not going to work. The only alternative, it seemed, was iron. "InShort," said Ralph Andrews, chief, Section of Wetland Ecology, Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife,"no way was found to make lead acceptable." SAAMI was not exactly wild about the alternative. Ironshot had loomed as a possible alternative for years, but its ravaging effect on gun barrels was wellestablished. The Xâ€”No one under 18 yrs.

Butjust how effectively it could kill a duck was something SAAMI had to find out. And with the help ofBSFW tests at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center in 1969, SAAMI got some answers. Shotshellswith one ounce of No. 4 soft iron shot were found to have a l m o s t i d e n t i c a l " k i l l i ngeffectiveness" as comparable lead. loads at "in-range" shots not exceeding fifty yards. In terms of shot-crippled birds, the tests indicated no appreciable difference between experimental iron shotshells andcomparable lead loads. As for its effect on shotgun barrels, SAAMI's own tests last year revealednegligible wear after 1,000 test rounds of soft iron shot. Things were looking up. Though mass production would be a problem, SAAMI announced that data evaluation would continue and that final technicalreports were forthcoming. After hearing little from SAAMI for nearly a year and assuming productionproblems would soon be solved, BSFW Director John S. Gottschalk announced during the August, 1970 waterfowl advisory meeting in Washington, D. C, that iron shotshells would hopefully be available towaterfowl hunters within a year and a half. His announcement was apparently optimistic. SAAMIreported that a year and a half was too soon, that iron shotshells were on the horizon but not yet inhand. What does appear to be in hand are two or more companies in New England who have alreadysuggested they can mass produce iron shot. But because SAAMI may be hesitant to depend oncontracts outside the ammunition manufacturing industry, soft iron shot may be having some non-technical difficulties enroute to the assembly line.

Fall quarterKlipsun editor Phyllis Atkinson paused, then continued: "When you come to a college with no largesocial cliques (fraternities and sororities), there is no atmosphere for an ego-tripping annual." Last year,Klipsun as a yearbook was in its death-throes; editor Tim Heitzman experimented with a photo-journalistic annual including pictorial essays, not mug-shots. Approximately 300 copies were sold. Thisyear, a quarterly magazine has sprung from the corpse of the yearly format, entering a new experimental phase. Planned for this fall's magazine, distributed free to all students Dec. 9, are: -An investigativecover story on a major problem in the Whatcom County area. -A special look at Initiative 25 6-how it will affect the future of environmental legislation in Washington state and the nation. -An in-depth story onthe future of Western-coping with growth, change, and teacher placement. -Several editorials and somefiction. -On the lighter side, a peek at the no-bra look on campus.

Flora was presented to the Board of Trusteesyesterday by the All-College Senate. The board voted to take the report under consideration during aclosed-door, executive session. The report is the result of a request by the trustees asking the senate to investigate the circumstances leading to the May 26 no-confidence vote. Edwin Clapp of the Englishfaculty chaired a special committee appointed to conduct the investigation. The report was compiled from questionnaires sent to all faculty members. The senate had forwarded the report after discussing it in an executive session Monday. The closed-door meeting lasted an hour and a half before the senatorsagreed to vote on the report. During a short recess at the end of the executive session the studentsenators held a brief caucus. All student senators at the meeting voted against accepting the report.Senator Willard Brown of the physics faculty was the only non-student to vote against the report. He hassaid earlier in the meeting that he would vote against the report if the question of keeping it a secret hadnot been settled when the vote was taken. The question was still open when the senate voted. The rollcall vote listed 17 senators for the report, 12 against it, one abstention and four members absent. In aneffort to reject the report, student senators moved that senate rules be suspended and a two-thirdsmajority be required for approval of the report. The parliamentary maneuver failed when the students failed to get enough votes for the rules suspension. Following the vote to forward the report the senatedebated a motion that it should release the report to the public. Senators agreed that the report would not be made public until after the trustees had been given a chance to act on it. The motion to release thereport was tabled by the senate until "not later than the second meeting in December." Kennedy the -western front western Washington state college IOC Vol. 65 No. 10 FRIDAY November 3,1972Bellingham, Wash. Evans and Rosellini on campus Evans: Students-faculty split over committee'sreport by RODGER PAINTER Student and faculty senators of the All-College Senate split in their vote to approve a report on the reasons behind the faculty vote of no confidence in college president Charles J.Flora, and a student member has resigned from the special investigating committee in protest of thereport Calling the report a "travesty of justice," Jim Kennedy, a student member of the senatecommittee, submitted his resignation, to committee chairman Edwin Clapp Wednesday. The report hasnot been made public and was scheduled to be considered by the Board of Trustees at its meetingyesterday. The unanimous student vote against the report came after the students held a caucus duringa break. However, the faculty, staff and administrative senators, with one exception, endorsed the reportand sent it to the trustees. In his letter of resignation Kennedy said, "I believe that the editorial tone ofthe report does not do justice to the objectivity required for a report of this nature. 'I do not mean toquestion the integrity of the group nor any of its members. Neither do I question the validity of the data.However,! (Cont. onpg. 12) Early-release delayed by JOHN BREWINGTON The concept of a prisonerearly-release program for Western was endorsed by the All-College Senate Wednesday evening and senton to the Board of Trustees for action. However, the Board of Trustees put the early-release program onits agenda for Nov. 16. The board decided at its meeting yesterday that the program needed morediscussion and public feedback. Under the proposed program, at least six felons would be housed on-campus and attend classes under the supervision of a live-in parole officer. With approval by the Board ofTrustees, a three-member board consisting of appointees from Whatcom Community College, theBellingham Technical Institute and Western would study the problems involved and preside over theprogram once initiated. In unanimously endorsing the concept of such a program at Western the senateasked that it be consulted prior to the implementation of the program. Discussion in senate chamberscentered on costs, housing, academic concerns and the power of review. Acting Provost WilliamBultmann pointed out that college agencies had already been set up to cover costs, housing andacademia and (Cont. on pg. 12) r "Wow are you going to legalize marijuana when the legislature won'teven let you have a drink at IS?'

Western's average is above-average JL Editor'snote: This is the second of a five-part series dealing with the curricular problems at Western. byKATHISANDBOE The average student at Western is getting excellent or above average grades, but thisis not due to a rise in the quality of students. A report by a committee on curricular problems at Western feels it is due to a decline in Western's academic standards. The committee found that 60 per cent ofthe students are getting excellent or above average grades. This rise in grades has caused one facultymember to comment that "we must get more academic backbone into our program . . . we must raiseour grading standards." The committee looked at a report of the grade spread for 1970-71 which foundthat 26.5 per cent of the grades given were A's and B's. It also found that these "percentages have beensteadily increasing over the last few years. The committee also noted that there has been a rise in thegrade point average of entering freshmen and said "this reflects declining secondary school standardsrather than better students. Quality must fall as quantity rises, and the increasing percentage of youngpeople attending college today surely includes more marginal students." A survey of students by thecommittee also brought out the comment that, "at the present time it is nearly impossible to flunk out ofWestern."

Albert Rosellini's message was simple: cut government spending andprovide jobs for the unemployed. Appearing on campus Wednesday, the Democratic gubernatorialcandidate rapidly outlined his platform, which involves Washington's high taxes and unemployment.Rosellini, frequently referring back to his days as governor, noted that he had 10 employees in his office,while Gov. Dan Evans has 27. He said that government expenditures since he left office in 1964 haveincreased 137.8 per cent. His secretary then was paid $9,000 while evans' secretary is paid $19,500."They're spending money in some areas of government like it's going out of style," he said. He criticizedsuper agencies, such as the Department of Social and Health Services, as having too much waste andbulk. "We can eliminate the tremendous waste and extravagence," he said, "and use the money to lower property taxes." The money could also be used to develop recreation areas, for education and forecology, he said. When questioned about the amount of spending that could be cut from the statebudget, Rosellini admitted that he thought that more could be slashed, but "I don't want to promise thepeople anything we can't do." No one will be fired from government agencies if Rosellini becomesgovernor, he said, but he will begin a moratorium on new Wrings and will eliminate unnecessarypositions. "We're going to cut all the waste we can," he said Loopholes in public assistance" must beTakes notes for father plugged, Rosellini said, and those who are able-bodied must be put to work."There are a lot of jobs," he stated, "but people won't take them. You just look in the newspaper." With a lower property tax, more and diversified industries will be attracted to Washington, Rosellini said,providing more jobs. "While the government does not owe people a living, as such, it owes them theopportunity to make a living," he said. If the able-bodied people do not work, they will be dropped fromthe welfare rolls, he said. With the money saved from tightening the belt around government agencies,$100 million will be available for education, elminiating the need for special levies. About $300 million,plus $65 million from revenue sharing, will be available to raise faculty salaries at Western, Rosellini said. Fielding some questions from the crowded audience, Rosellini. said that his attorneys are investigatingthe charge he made of wiretapping by the Evans campaign. When specific evidence is obtained, Rosellini said his campaign would make it available to the public. "There was some type of tampering, tracing ofphone calls," he said. He would like to see an income tax on a state level, being "the most practical"solution for revenue, but he didn't think the mood of the people would approve it at this time. His speech,a comparison between when he was governor and today, is a theme of his campaign. "I like to bespecific. I like to tell people what I'm going to do and let them make up their minds what they want to do," he said. Daughter works for improvement by SONJA BROWN Lynn Rosellini, daughter of formergovernor Albert Rosellini, was at Western Wednesday to gather ideas on how her father can better the lot of women if he is elected. She met with faculty and students of the Women's Studies program,members of the Women's Commission and others. For the past four years Rosellini has lived in NewYork, working for Newsday, a Long Island daily newspaper. She said that when she graduated from theUniversity of Washington the women's movement had not really begun so she is unfamiliar with themovement in this state. She was there to listen, she said. Marsha Trew, of the speech department, toldher that TIAA-CREF, the retirement plan for Western faculty, discriminates against women and yetwomen are required to participate. "They deserve an injunction," Trew said. Mary Robinson, associatedean of students, said that women faculty at Western received on the average $ 1,000 a year less insalary than men and the women had worked on the average of three years longer. She said, however,that data on tenure and other information had to be gathered and considered before the reasons for thediscrepancy could be determined. She said that" Western was required to file with the state by Dec. 15,1972, an "affirmative action" plan, intended to end discrimination toward women in employment practicesat Western. In order to carry out a plan to end discrimination, she said, you need financial backing fromthe state. It would be unrealistic to set up a quota system for hiring according to the percentage ofwomen in the population, Robinson said. More realistic, she said, would be to consider the number ofwomen holding doctorates. In order for a woman student to carry on her studies there are certain basicnecessities, one woman said. She needs day care if she has children, and she needs usually twophysical examinations a year. At the present time many women at Western do not receive these, shesaid. The student health service has no gynecologist evven though half the students are women, sheadded. Denise Guren of Western's Women's Commission, said that many women with bachelor degrees from Washington colleges cannot get jobs other than typing. She said that these women are told, "Well, $300 is an awfully good salary for a woman." Chris Lang, of the Women's Commission, said that theBellingham state employment agency is a victim of state inaction on discrimination. She said manywomen work in the canneries, as salespersons and clerks because they are the only ones who will workfor such low pay. If he stays A Evans predicts bright future by JAMES HEITZMAN Governor Dan Evans, in a campaign stop at Western Wednesday, criticized his opponent's campaign, and predicted a brightfuture for Washington in the '70's if his administration remains in office. Speaking to a large crowd in theViking Union lounge, Evans admitted that in the last eight years his administration has spent more thanthe previous one, but he said only the first governor spent less than his predecessor because he didn'thave one. Evans said Washington ranked 20th in the nation in the amount of citizens' money that wentto taxes eight years ago. Now it ranks 28th. There is reduced spending pressure because of a drop in the number of school children and welfare caseloads, he said. He told his audience there is "no need for new or expanded taxes," but called for a limited income tax and reduced property taxes. When asked todefend college tuition hikes during his administration, Evans said that the state found itself in the middleof an economic decline and was $565 million short of revenue to operate at existing levels. Stateemployees' salaries were frozen, payments into pension funds were stopped, and cuts were made inwelfare services. Evans said college tuition had to be raised, along with taxes on liquor and cigarettes,but he asked the legislature to give colleges and universities the ability to waive tuition for six per cent ofthe students. The legislature approved a bill waiving tuition for three per cent. A plan to charge all collegeexpenses to students, payable after graduation, needs more research, he said. "We've got to face up tosome reform," Evans said of property tax. He called for constitutional limits on taxes and a greater voicefor those taxed. On prison reform, Evans claimed accusations by Rosellini that Evans has done less than his predecessor are false. "Rosellini had a big-house concept of prison. Lock'em away and keep themseparated," he said. Evans said the work-release program, in which convicts work on outside jobs, andthe training program, in which convicts are given the chance to obtain high school, two and four-yearcollege degrees, should be given a chance to succeed. On pollution Evans said "We should avoidCalifornicating ourselves." He said marijuana should be legalized only after its long and short-term effects are known. He asked his audience, "How are you going to legalize marijuana when the legislature won'teven let you have a drink at 18?" Following Evans' speech, the Chicano Education Association (CHE)presented him a letter with recommendations to fill a vacancy on the Washington State MexicanAmerican Commission. The letter stated that Evans had rejected an earlier recommendation to the State Human Rights Commission last year. The letter said that "CHE has decided at this time to set aside its earlier ruling and make recommendations in the hope that we can begin to rebuild a constructiverelationship with the Governor's office." The CHE recommended that one of four Chicano women beconsidered to fill the vacancy. The letter was presented to Evans by Raul Arellano, CHE vice president atWestern and a member of the College of Ethnic Studies faculty. Survey shows McGovern doubles Nixon in campus poll A political survey taken last week on the Western campus may give some insight intowhat is important to students registered this quarter. The survey was taken by a group of people inSoc/Anth 366 as a class project. It was headed by Liz Faller, a McGovern campus coordinator. Sevenother people took part in the survey, which covered the views of 1,062 people. "We found that the war and economics were most important to students as issues," Faller said. The was was considered importantby 703 students, followed by the economy and employment with a combined total of 553. Tax reform,the environment and welfare were next on the list, but were of prime importance to less than 100 students each. Of the students polled, 62 per cent (570 . students) prefer McGovern, followed by Nixon, 28 Lfiercent (262J.wJthâ€ž9 per cent.undecided[or voting.. by BOB SPEED for other candidates, the preferenceleaning to the left. Of the 1,062 students asked, 974 were registered voters. Of these, over 60 per centwere absentee voters. Actually going to vote were 918, and those who were eligible but not voting gaveineffectiveness, dislike of politics or dislike of the candidates as reasons for not voting. Efforts Weremade to get a good random sample of student opinion. Surveyers asked permission of professors in awide variety of classes for the survey, which covered the three cluster colleges as well as classes inhumanities, sciences and social sciences.. The poll represents the positions of 148 freshmen, 313sophomores, 353 juniors, 206 seniors and 22 grad students.

Corruption and dishonesty were the biggest complaints concerning Nixon (180),followed by his Vietnam policy (133), favoritism to business and the rich (37) and economic policy (37).The survey was used to evaluate where emphasis is needed in the McGovern campaign. Since the survey showed that the majority of voters on campus were not from Whatcom County, emphasis was placed on absentee ballot application stations. Bill Haines was in charge of this voter drive.

Lloyd Meeds will suggest the formation of acommittee to investigate the Watergate affair, he said. Speaking on campus Monday, the Democraticincumbent called the national Democratic headquarters bugging "the most frightening thing since I'vebeen in Congress, perhaps in our history." The congressman, running for his fifth term, questioned thewisdom of the grand jury that indicted the seven men "caught red-handed", but investigated no further."These tracks lead directly into the White House," Meeds said of the Watergate situation. He suggestedthe commission members be appointed by Congress and approved by the President, with bothDemocrats and Republicans as members. "Get it totally out of the political arena," Meeds said. Thewheat deal and the ITT deal were other areas which could be investigated by the commission, he said.When questioned about the seeming lack of action following commissions, Meeds agreed, but said hefelt that this instance would be different. "Many commissionsâ€”crime, marijuana, riots, have beenignored by this administration," he said. "But sunshine is the best disinfectant. "There will be such anoutcry, such an outrage," he predicted, "that something will be done." Two major concerns of Meeds inCongress have been jobs and improved public works programs. "My prime function has been and willcontinue to be to work for jobs worth doing for a life worth living," the Second District representative said. The last four years have suffered under poor economic management, he said. Programs are needed toget people back to work. "The single most important thing in the management of the economy is to seethat people have jobs," he said. This produces the dignity of being on a payroll and tax monies fordomestic reform. "Ninety-nine and forty-four hundredths would rather have a job than be on welfare,"Meeds said about the fallacy that people on welfare would rather stay on it. Mandatory work provisionsare meaningless, he feels, when there isn't any work to do. He suggested categorizing the unemployedinto three groups: those who cannot function in a job environment due to physical or mental handicaps,those who could work with training or updating of skills and those who could work without further training(A small percentage presently), he said. Using Aid to Dependent Children as an example of the welfareprogram, Meeds said that it is useless to reform the program unless there are responsible alternatives,such as "extensive, expanded day careâ€”a place where a mother knows the children would be caredfor."

A Western geography professor and native of Calcutta,Mookherjee spent three days at the University of Dacca, Bangladesh, talking to students and faculty.Students never established an organized resistance against the West Pakistani army, instead theyparticipated in riots in Dacca, said Mookherjee. One student that Mookherjee met was jailed for threemonths by the West Pakistanis for participating in the riots. Another student said that Bengalis were"segregated from the mainstream of nationhood," and felt it necessary to engage in the riots. Becauseof West Pakistani policy, there had been little development in the East; remaining a supplier of rawmaterials while most of the industrial development was concentrated in the West, according toMookherjee. When East Pakistanis were given a chance to participate in general election in Decmeber1970, the West Pakistani army suppressed all political activities in the East, he said. The Bengalis thenbegan a mass movement of agitation to seat the Awami League, a party headed by Mujibur Rehmanwhich won 160 of 162 seats in the East Pakistani legislature. There is little anti-American feelings oncampus, according to Mookherjee, but some students could not understand our government's stand onthe revolution; hoping that the U.S. would be one of the first countries to recognize the new republic.While the West Pakistanis are a group of different ethnic and cultural entities, Bangladesh's p o p u l a ti o n is more homogeneous, Mookherjee said. In contrast to West Pakistan, Bengalis have a commonlanguage, tradition and a much more dense population.

Flora is getting the golden shaft (once again) from the faculty. Last Monday, members of the All-College Senate read a nine-page report prepared by a special committee on why the faculty votedagainst the college president. In keeping with its past policy, the senators read the report behind closeddoors. Whatever the report said may never be known, not even to the person it was about, Charles Flora. However, it was so obviously slanted that the student senators felt they could not approve it being senton to the Board of Trustees. One student resigned from the special committee after calling the report "atravesty of justice." The fact that the report was biased against Flora shouldn't come as any surprise. The original charge was brought about by the faculty, and the judge and jury hearing the charges was alsothe faculty. It is small comfort to note that the ten student senatorsâ€”along with one facultysenatorâ€”had enough sense of justice to vote against the secret report. Still, justice has not been doneto Charles Flora nor to the 450 faculty members who did not get to read the "reasons behind the vote ofno-confidence. The whole college has lost its chance to give an accused man a fair and public hearing,and a chance to defend himself against the charges. False alarm causes accident Editor, WesternFront: At 10 p.m. Friday night, some malicious prankster pulled three fire alarm boxes in Highland Halldormitory. The alarms were false. As the Bellingham Fire Department responded to the calls, a carpulled over to the curb by the Highland Hall driveway to get out of the way of the emergency equipment.The car was rear-ended by another car that could not stop in time. Both cars were extensivelydamaged, $300 to one and $200 to the other. Fortunately no one was hurt. What about the next time, or the next? It has happened before, an innocent by-stander, or as the case was Friday night, a carstopped to get out of the way of e m e r g e n c y e q u i p m e nt responding to what is believed to be areal emergency. A rear-end collision, result: the driver of one or possibly both vehicles injured or killed,or the passengers, a child maybe, the same results? And what of the prankster? He thought it would begreat tun to pull that alarm, to see the commotion it caused, the students running from the dorm in thebelief that there is a real fire, the emergency equipment responding to the call. And then there was theaccident, someone seriously injured, the prank is no longer a prank. HOW WOULD YOU FEEL IF YOU KNEW YOU WERE THE CAUSE OF ANOTHER PERSON BEING INJURED OR KILLED? Bill Ritsema Security Officer Jasmer blasts sports editor Editor, Western Front: In reference to the Oct. 31 article in the Western Front by Sports Editor O.K. Johnson, I and others I have talked to found his article quiteuseless and nonfactual. What was the point of your article, Mr. O.K. Johnson? It sure wasn't factualreporting or anything of vital interest to anyone. It seemed to be just a release of some kind, of your inner aggressions towards the Western Vikings. Why do you have something against the football team? Didyou get cut from the squad? How can you say the team members are a bunch of the _ westernmasochistsâ€”I've never seen you once at a Viking practice session. We as a team have enough prideand discipline to bounce back from a rather disappointing start and win two in a row and you, Mr. O.K.Johnson, come down hard. Why? If the EOC protest goes through, and we win the two remainingleague games, WWSC will be alone in second place. Why not print something optimistic like that,instead of your pessimistic feelings for the team. Sure, a few mistakes have been made, but the game is to correct them, not quit or just keep playing because we like to hurt ourselves or each other. We playand practice as a team. It's funny, but the team members are still wearing their lettermen's jackets andfans still keep coming to games to see the Vikings win, not lose, as you suggested. Maybe no onetakes you too seriously, Mr. O.K. Johnson. By the way, last year's Vikings were 7-3 not 6-3, a*nd theHeisman Trophy winner last year was Pat Sullivan not Ed Marirraro.

R_ E gt; S t a n n a r d J n letters Honors program is theme Editor,Western Front: Conditions and directions of honors programs in colleges and universities across theUnited States was the theme of a three-day conference held in San Francisco over the weekend of Oct.19-21. Two faculty members, Dr. Diers and Dr. Faulkner, and seven students were among over fourhundred oarticinants who attended. A sampling of workshop topics follow: "Students as Teachers";"Problems and Possibilities in Financing Honors Programs"; "Teaching Honors Humanities to Non-LiberalArts Students"; "Relevance of Honors Programs to the Black Community"; "Academic Advising andCounciling of Honors Students"; and "How Independent Should and Can Independent Study Be?"-fromprepared statement by the National Collegiate Honors Council. Among the seven students who attendedthe conference, there is no concensus of opinion on the merits of this gala event. For myself the HonorsConvention deserved the connotations attached by many to the term "Honors"-pompous, overly dignifiedand generally useless in terms of large scale student involvement. From these observations perhaps agreat deal may be learned to further develop our own Honors Program here at Western. From the onset,the convention revolved around several basic themes, such as: "what is an experimental program?" and"should honors acceptance criterion be scholastic standing or individual student motivation?" Thesethemes came up consistently in the workshops without regard to the scheduled topics. The repetitiousnature of meaningless discussion of these archaic "honors questions" prompted many students to sitsilently in awe as the PR men seized the floor to promote their schools (in terms of large numbers,overzealous administrators were the only minority represented at the convention). When informationregarding particular programs was sporadically introduced, Western was shown to be remarkablyprogressive by comparison. Unfortunately, the majority of these comparative "experimental" programswere both shortsighted and very conventional considering the amount of change that even a standardcurriculum goes through each year. Reflecting the major flaws of the convention, Western's programseems to have stagnated within its own membership and effectively alienated itself from the student body. An excellent example is the registration of only two students for a seminar on PsychotomimeticCompounds (drugs which induce a neurotic state), when the value of this type of course is obvious withinthe college community. If we are to learn from the failings of the convention, two steps must be taken.First, the generation of student interest on a large scale basis. Secondly, a close scrutiny of the HonorsProgram within the near future. Those readers who would claim that this article is an attempt atsolicitation of new members would be absolutely correct. It is my personal belief that the Honors Programis the only inter-departmental opportunity within this institution that allows a student to dictate thedirection and depth of his education. Without the implementation, of the steps above the repressive status quo image projected by the convention may well become a reality at Western. Tren AbrahamsJunior/Psychology Voter's digest unclear Editor, Western Front: Concerning your voters digest in theOct. 27 issue: I was a little peeved by the fact that these editorials were not specifically labeled to savepeople from considering them to be normal, factual stories. I was especially interested in the story onHJR 61 [Equal Rights Amendment]. It left me with a number of questions (more than it answered) among which are: Why (if it passes) will fathers be unable to head families, or unable to be forced to pay childsupport? Why would this erase (which) guidelines for women and why could women no longer have thesecurity of a lack of legal responsibility (financial) and weren't slaves given many of the same measuresfor security and happiness? I also could not find any sort of reason why HJR 61 would be. harmfulbecause it offers women equality rather than legislation now designed to equalize pay scales andworking conditions? The right to privacy??? Robert Fiedler Freshman Get on to boycott Editor: Western Front The Front recently published an article describing MECHA's attempt to remove Taco Time's racist cartoon figure. The article called to mind MECHA's failure to deal with the most crucial issue facingChicanos todayâ€”the lettuce boycott. Granted, the cartoon is offensive and should be removed. But tocontrast MECHA's action against Taco Time with its inaction on behalf of the lettuce boycott gives arevealing indication of the level of MECHA's political commitment. Due to a lack of organization, whichMECHA should logically provide, the boycott is unknown to most Bellinghamsters. Virtually every storein the city sells non-union lettuce, and only part of the lettuce used by SAGA Foor Services is UnitedFarmworkers'. MECHA says the cartoon "inflicts psychological violence on young Chicanos". If MECHA is truly concerned about young Chicanos, its energy would be better spent aiding Chicano families intheir struggle to attain a decent wage.

These have been the marks of the administration of Governor DAN EVANS. During histerm in office the State of Washington has undergone some of the must difficult times in our history. Butduring these years the people of Washington have responded to the challenge under the leadership ofDAN EVANS. DAN EVANS believes in youth involvement in government. He created the Commission forYouth Involvement in 1969, proposed an executive request bill to lower the voting age in 1970, and actively supported the 26th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution (18 year-old vote). He has appointed 53 youngpeople (16-30) to statutory boards and commissions and expanded the summer intern program givingabout 100 students governmental training each year. Today the state of Washington stands in the firstrank among all states in meeting the challenge of environmental quality. In 1969 at Governor EVANS'request, Washington became the first state to require environmental impact studies on proposedhighways. In 1970, Governor EVANS request resulted in the creation of the nation's first state departmentof ecology. He also proposed Washington's oil spill law which provides for fines up to $20,000 andunlimited liability for clean-up for spilling oil into waters in Washington. In the field of education,community colleges were brought under state financing at Governor EVANS' request. This legislationincreased the number of colleges, improved the quality of instruction, broadened the curriculum andprovided a uniform revenue base for all community colleges in the state. Governor EVANS proposed theestablishment of the state's first four-year college in 70 yearsâ€”Evergreen State College. Finally, in thearea of human rights, statutes have been adopted forbidding discrimination in hiring on the basis of age,race, or sex. DAN EVANS actively supported legislation eliminating the liquor discount for clubs thatdiscriminate despite the obvious political liabilities of doing so. Under DAN EVANS' administration, stateemployment of minority group members has jumped from 1.5% to 6.0% and the Governor has named 75minority appointees to state boards, councils, and commissions. Governor DAN EVANS proposed andactively supports the Equal Rights Amendment which will be on the ballot this fall. These are but a fewreasons why we as students support the re-election of Governor DAN EVANS. There are many othersranging from his dogged determination to secure tax reform to his leadership in diversifying theemployment base in Washington. DAN EVANS is a governor for today and for the years ahead. Hebelieves in constructive action for the future. Honest, straightforward and forthright, DAN EVANS hasprovided exceptional leadership for Washington. We hope you will join with us on November 7th by votingfor DAN EVANS for Governor.

S t u d e n tWashington Education Association (SWEA) has practically died on campus, Jim Burke, studentspokesman for the group, said when it met Monday to discuss methods of improvement. In an effort toboost membership and attendance, the group decided to sponsor more s p e a k e r s who woulddemonstrate new techniques in the education field. Also discussed were possible improvements in theeducation department. The students felt t h e r e should be more participation and more feedback byboth faculty and students and suggested that an evaluation of both faculty and students be made bymembers of the department. Burke suggested that at the beginning of each year, a mini-session should be held in which students could find out what each class would cover and how it would be taught for the rest of the year. He said this has been done on an experimental basis at Fairhaven.

Accident result of false alarm A false fire alarm has beenblamed for a two car, rear-end accident on Western's campus Friday night. Campus security officerChuck Page says the accident occured as the two cars were yielding right-of-way to a Bellingham FireDepartment truck responding to three alarms turned in from Highland Hall Dormitory. The fire alarmswere false, Page said. "Some guys were just walking through the hall pulling the alarms." BellinghamPolice estimated damage to one car at $200. The other car, which had to be towed away, received $300 damage. Under state law anyone turning in a false alarm is guilty of a misdemeanor. Penalties rangeup to $300 and 90 days in jail. The guilty person is also liable for any damage suffered during a response to the false alarm. Page said that the college may have to begin paying for fire department responsesto false alarms on campus.

Seattle conference to aid minorities Representatives from the with one another, andto review Author wants weak nation-states A world government is the only viable answer to the problemsthat face not only America but the rest of the world as well, says Jean-Francois Revel. Revel, author ofthe book of the quarter, "Without Marx of Jesus: The New American Revolution Has Begun," spoke to agroup of students and faculty in the Viking Union lounge Wednesday afternoon. Citing the goal ofeventual world government as the only rational solution to the problems of race, nuclear war, pollution,poverty and hunger and economic development, Revel said that multinational corporations that help break down the ideas of nationalism in favor of internationalism were a step in the right direction. "I am in favorof anything that will weaken the concept of the traditional nation-state," Revel said.

When asked about his views on the American general election, Revelhesitated and then said that he had been told that in America new movements among the young wouldnot find political expression, but during the primaries McGovern seemed to bridge the gap between thecounter-culture and traditional democrats. But the problem, Revel said, was that the very type oftraditional constituent of the Democratic Party has changed. Thirty years ago the working class had anincome below the poverty level, but now the working class has gained new affluence. "The new affluenceis a new political problem," he said. "The working class feels a new economic security but it is stillhostile to what I will call for lack of a better word the new 'cultural revolution.'

Wooden walking ramps covered the mud and swamp infested land.Â«*â€”^"Western enters 73rd year--â€”- by BOB McLAUCHLAN Western has been in operation for 73years, having opened its doors Sept. 6, 1899. The first suggestion for a publicly-supported state normalor teacher-training school was made in 1886 when J. R. Bradley from Missouri proposed to Lyndencitizens that a normal school be established with local resources. A five-room building was ready for useon the school's opening Oct. 5, 1886. Tuition was set at $8 for a 10-week course. Room and board wassecured in town for about $3 a week. Girls were admitted at 14 years old and boys at 16. WhatcomCounty, at that, time had no secondary and few elementary schools. By 1888, a person could obtain ateaching certificate when 18 years old. However, the Northwest Normal School could not continue as aprivately-supported institution because it was losing money. Bradley decided in January 1892 to closethe school. But through the urging of Bradley and others, the state began to look for a site for a statenormal school. A 10-acre tract near Sehome Hill was finally selected as the site. On Feb. 24, 1893,Western Washington State college came to birth under the name Northwest Normal School whenGovernor John H. McGraw signed House Bill 66. The campus itself was swampy and covered with logsand stumps. A swamp at the north end was later converted into a picturesque pond with water lilies andcattails. When the school opened its doors in fall, 1899, some 88 students enrolled on the first day. Bythe end of the week 160 students had entered Bellingham State Normal School. The first few years were rough on the institution, which had a lack of space, furniture, books and other facilities. Because of ashortage of funds, 38 rooms in the main building (now Old Main) had not been completed. The teacher-training school began its career in the basement which was insufficiently heated through overhead pipesand poorly lit. The library was established on the second floor in a single room with a student workingpart-time as a librarian. Not for several years later was Mabel Zoe Wilson, a professional librarian, hired.The students were not at a loss for recreational activities outdoors, however. Small steamers providedexcursions up to the head of Lake Whatcom and back. There were hikes along Chuckanut Drive, whichwas a narrow, steep and dangerous trail then. A train took students to Glacier, from which they set out to climb Mt. Baker. The Normal School program of the first two decades was directed at the one objectiveof educating teachers for the common schools. Two teaching papersâ€”a certificate or diplomaâ€”couldbe obtained under the Board of Trustees' authority. The certificate was temporary and required only aminimum of normal school work. A high school graduate could obtain a certificate through a one-yearcourse. A student could then secure a diploma after taking a two-year course. At the end of two years'teaching experience, the diploma could be converted to a life diploma. By the second decade regularwork was only open to high school graduates. By 1924, the terms freshman, sophomore, junior andsenior were first used to designate the post-high school years. The Normal School had outgrown its high-school function. . By 1919 the enrollment had reached 1,312 students; The schoolbegan' with 263students in 1899. School President Edward T. Mathes had carried the school from 1899-1914; GeorgeNash from 1914-1922; and Dwight B. Waldo from 1922-1923. However, possibly the most history-making and controversial president of this college was Charles H. Fisher, who served from 1923-1939. In 1939,he was dismissed by the trustees for "radicalism." Fisher was actively identified in the educational fieldsince his graduation from the University of Pennsylvania in 1914. He was connected with the statedepartment of public instruction at Harrisburg, Pa. President Fisher's tenure of 16 years at Western wasthe second longest in the history of the college. Only William Haggard, who followed Fisher, servedlonger. During Fisher's term of office, the school changed from a two-year to a four-year institution whichoffered a bachelor's degree. Fisher was a popular man on campus. He joined students at theirHomecoming bonfires from then-first one in 1924 to his last year in 1938, and cheered the Vikings in allathletic activities. Off-campus, Fisher was deeply involved in community affairs and was a long-timemember of the local Community Chest and belonged to several civic clubs, including Rotary. However,influential townspeople remained unimpressed with Fisher and the college. A few businessmen wereupset after he successfully backed the zoning of the college hill to prevent a rash of businesses fromperching near campus to capitalize on the growing student market. ' Several townspeople blamed Fisher, a liberal, for "radicalizing" students at Western. In any event, "Governor Martin summoned the trusteesto his office in May, 1939. On May 23, 1939, Fisher was given his walking papers. The campus was inan uproar as students and faculty members alike came to Fisher's defense. But it was to no avail. TheAmerican Association of University Professors (AAUP) also supported Fisher and had the college placedon its censured list from 1942 to 1944. No governor since Martin has ordered the dismissal of a collegepresident. Fisher Fountain is about all that remains of Fisher's legacy. He died in 1964 in Seattle.William Wade Haggard became president in 1939 and held that position until 1959. In 1947, the StateLegislature empowered the college to offer work for the Master of Education degree and to develop aprogram in the arts and sciences for the Bachelor of Arts degree. During the 1960's, a master's programin history, English, mathematics and other disciplines was launched. Since 1937 the college has greatlyexpanded its facilities for student housing and extra-curricular activities, including the Viking Union, theCommons, the Student Co-op and the many new dormitories. Higginson, Bond, Miller, Humanities andother facilities have also been constructed. Fairhaven College was distinguished as being the firstinstitution of its kind in the Pacific Northwest. Huxley and the College of Ethnic Studies also came intothe limelight. And here we are in 1972 with the faculty's no-confidence vote against the college president, the student government bringing a law suit against the college, completion of the library addition,construction of an auditorium and environmental center and a losing football team after last year'swihriihg'squaxn All Western 'alumni and Whatcom County residents are invited to attend Western's firstOpen House since 1969 this weekend.

Homecoming spirit here butredirected This weekend's Homecoming and Open House activities will mark the 48th year ofHomecoming celebration. However, gone are the days of lighting bonfires, electing queens, racingchariots and decorating dorms. Although some of the ceremony and activities are still here, includingthe traditional -Homecoming football game, the spirit of rally-around-Old Main is not. In 1969 and the46th year of Homecoming, the alumni found a changeâ€”a pig had been chosen Homecoming queen.Blatant mockery replaced pomp and circumstance with such tunes as: Queen Sigrid was no longer alovely lass from the senior class The crown rested instead on a fair pig's head. What replaced colorfulparades were solemn marches to the court house. Signs of "bring our boys home now" replaced banners of "welcome home, alums." Festivals commemorating art, music, crafts, dance, body, soul and otherphases of life superseded dorm decoration contests and royalty reviews. Loose and laid-back rockconcerts have replaced formal boutonniere-in-the-lapel dances. The slogan of Homecoming now is thatall women are beautiful, not just a pretty, sparkling-eyed blonde or brunette that received the queen'scrown each year. The spirit, emotions and energy are still thereâ€”just redirected elsewhere.

There was only one missed predictionlast week in the entire ballot, as sports editor O.K. Johnson incorrectly chose Southern Oregon to defeatWestern. That was his only miss in eight games, and he still finished last. Both Howard Scott and KentSherwood picked the Vikings and consequently finished with a perfect 100 per cent accuracy mark.Johnson's last place mark was 87.5. Tomorrow, Johnson again picks the Viks to lose, for the third weekin a row, while Scott and Sherwood favor Western over visiting Oregon College of Education. All threeunanimously pick Washington over Oregon State and Southern California over Washington State. In theweek's "going-out-on-a-limb" prediction, Sherwood favors Whit worth to hand the undefeated CentralWildcats their first defeat, in a game to be played in Spokane. Only four of the eight games wereunanimous choices this week. In addition to the UW-OSU and USC-WSU games, the three-way nodwent to Southern Oregon over Oregon Tech, and UCLA over Stanford. Following last week's success,when all three saw their percentages rise, a definite one-two-three standings evolved. Sherwood leads with 36 of 46 correct, followed by Scott with 35, and Johnson with 34. The Front's consensus has 35. With a new faith and confidence in forecasting, the trio foresees the following results in tomorrow's EvergreenConference and PAC-8 games: GAME OCE at Western Central at Whitworth E. Wash, at E. Ore.SOC at OTI UW at Oregon St. USC at WSU Stanford at UCLA Oregon at Calif.

The Big Blue defense, which performedadmirably against Southern Oregon last weekend in Western's 25-18 win, is tops in the conference andwill face another stiff test against the potent Wolves offense. Southern Oregon dumped Eastern Oregon33-6 last weekend. Western lost to the same Eastern Oregon team 15-13, a game played under protest in the waning minutes. Oregon College has a balanced attack, depending on the running of tailbackDoug Trice and pass receiving of Steve McElravy, one of the Evco's top receivers. McElravy has caught19 passes for 271 yards. Western's split end Steve Jasmer also ranks high in the conference with 10pass receptions for 230 yards and two touchdowns. The Vikings will either go with Tom Leuhmann orMarshall Torre at quarterback. In the backfield, the Vikings will have fullback Tom Wigg and halfbackSteve Skogmo for ball-carrying duties. Wigg has rushed for 597 yards, caught passes for 62 yards a n d has scored three touchdowns. He is closing in on a hundred yards per game rushing, as he currently is averaging 98.3 yards a game. Skogmo has rushed for 461 yards and has scored four touchdowns. He is averaging 73 yards a game. Defensively, the Vikings will be without defensive tackle Jack Dolan, whosuffered a sprained ankle Tuesday night. Dolan missed the game against Southern Oregon lastweekend. Freshman Walt Zeiger, in his first start last weekend, gave the coaching staff something tolook at as he batted down several passes and recovered the fumble t h a t set up Western's game-winning touchdown. Sophomore Randy Rankin also saw action last weekend replacing the injured Aaron Culley. Culley is expected to be ready by tomorrow night. If the Vikings win tomorrow night, defeatEastern Washington next weekend and defeat Simon Fraser the weekend after, the Big Blue will finishwith a 5-4 mark on the season and a 4-2 mark in the conference. Last year's record was 7-3. If Western finishes the conference with a 4-2 slate, it will be good enough for a second place finish in theconference.

Suddenly a truce is announced. Everyone is friendly and there are no more hostilities. Alldifferences have been settled and now things can get back to normal. The Vietnam War? No.Unfortunately it isn't anything that clear and understandable. It's the continuing skirmishes between theathletic department and the college administration. In the newest installment in the ongoing saga, collegepresident Charles J. Flora has announced that the administration is not out to eliminate college athletics. It sounds a bit like the guy who has been whipping your back for hours and then suddenly smiles andholds out his hand in friendship. In a recent Western Public Information Office statement, Flora said theadministration is not out to eliminate athletics, BUT . . . he does recognize that Western is "in the midstof a difficult financial period." The fact that the two statements are nearly in the same written breathsuggests that as soon as someone tells Flora he must cut something somewhere he'll lop off athletics.Flora and Margaret Aitken, the new head of the unisex physical education department and also for allpurposes in charge of the athletic department, have said that everything is settled and all is rosy in Carver Gym. The pair may have the color right, but it's more likely that the glow is caused by a volcano about to erupt. The whole affair came into the open last spring after Aitken had been appointed head of thephysical education department. Wrestling coach Lanny Bryant resigned. In his resignation he listed fourmain reasons for leaving Western. Of the top two, one was because "the attitude of the administrationtoward intercollegiate athletics has made recruiting and the preservation of a top level athletic programimpossible." The other top reason was because of "the appointment of Margaret Aitken as chairman ofthe P.E. department and head of athletics." Aitken has made only one bad mistake thus far and that wasthe slowness in which she found a replacement for Bryant. Otherwise, she has not done the terrible job a lot of people thought she might. Western has lost countless of athletes, especially in wrestling andbasketball, because of the administration's stand against athletics. The wrestlers lost two state highschool champions from Sedro Woolley and the cagers lost such possible junior college stars as 6-11Jerry Clark and 6-5 Floyd Haywood to Eastern Washington. Flora began the battle during the budgetcrisis in the spring of 1971 when he swung the axe first at the entire athletic program, stating in adocument that "athletics either find a way of bepoming self-supporting or dissolve by fall of 1972." Only abattle led by then-athletic director William Tomaras saved athletics. But Tomaras was a victim of the.P.E.merge and was asked to resign from the A.D. position, though he "did not have to give up his teachingduties," because he had been at Western 11 years and had tenure. Tomaras is now at San FernandoValley College in California. Critics yelp that athletics are over-emphasized. Yet, even though Western isby far the biggest school in terms of enrollment in the Evergreen Conference it ranks fifth of seveninstitutions in budget and faculties. Western is the only Evco school with an athletic program not allowed by its college administration to keep any or all gate receipts from athletic events. The money is returnedto a school general fund for use at will by the administration. Western is the only school with only onefull-time assistant football coach, and would not have that if not for a stroke of circumstance. Larry Vance had all but been given his notice in 1971 when baseball coach Connie Hamilton resigned opening aposition. Vance now holds down both assistant football and head baseball jobs. Hoop coach ChuckRandall has always had to employ graduate assistant coaches instead of a full time coach. That means a different assistant each year. Flora says that he is not against collegiate athletics, yet he was a primebacker in the recent Evco cutbacks which limit athletic budgets and schedules. Football coach BoydeLong has criticized the schedules which restrict football teams to eight games, saying recruiting will benext to impossible. Community Colleges will play at least nine games, Long said, "so if you're a highschool football player, you're going to go to the school where you can play the most football." Flora saysathletics ought to be willing to take cuts, which they are, but he doesn't tell the biology department torestrict the number of degrees it gives out, or the history department that they must find a way to become self-supporting or cease to exist. Maybe Flora has changed his attitude toward athletics. Maybe he does want to make up and be friends. Maybe he does want to sign a truce. But after being whipped so long,you might look a little leary at the whipper walking at you with a broad grin on his face and his handoutstretched, while his other hand is behind his back clutching , something. .â€¢, lt;..Â»',.-, â€¢;'-â€¢ gt;â€¢ lt; â€¢ â€¢ feA^thet^U^fljai^, -.- gt;â€¢â€¢ Viking harriers favorites for Evco championshipWestern's cross country team travels to Klamath Falls, Ore. this weekend for the Evergreen Conferencecross country meet hosted by Oregon Tech. The harriers, coached by Dick Bowman, have won threedual meets and the Western Invitational since losing their opening meet at Calgary, Alberta. Bowmansays his team does not plan to lose the conference meet, in which Western, Eastern and SouthernOregon have been named as the favorites. Mike Shaw has been the Vikings' top runner in four of theteam's five meets, but the key to Western's success has been the consistency which the runners havedisplayed so far this season. In the three victorious dual meets, the Vikings have placed nearly all seven of their runners in the top ten finishers each time out. "We have a team of runners who all run tough,"Bowman said. Running with Shaw will be Mike Cowan, Tom Duncan, Russ Fuller, Andy Hersfrom, Fred New, Rich and Will Rathvon and Paul Scovel. As far as improvement on the team, Bowman said thatthe progress has been "fantastic." Scovel has cut his time by 68 seconds since his first meet inBellingham's Cornwall Park. Shaw has cut his by 33, New 31, Herstrom 31, Duncan 28, Will Rathvon 25, Rich Rathvon 25 and Fuller eight. Bowman has been preparing his runners for the conference meet byconducting some high altitude training sessions near Mt. Baker. Bowman says he feels Field hockeyteam hosts Simon Fraser Western's women's field hockey team will host Simon Fraser University in agame 3 p.m. Tuesday on the field behind Carver Gym. Field hockey is a hybrid between soccer and icehockey. Twenty women make up team and a ball about the size of a soft ball is batted from one end ofthe field to the other with the aid of hockey sticks. The game originated in England and like soccer isplayed in all kinds of weather. Besides college teams, there are clubs and high school teams thatparticipate. humpty dump+y's V.W.

Of these, almost 400 petitioned for readmission. Out ofthese, 10 per cent were denied readmission. The rest were put on either probation or final probation. One reason for the large number of readmittances is that many students decide not to petition, Douglas said. "Those students who end up on probation are essentially qualified to be at Western. Other factors,usually personal, have made it difficult for them to succeed." The committee reported that the decline ofacademic standards is the most critical problem facing Western. As a possible remedy for theunqualified rise in grades, it suggested that the' faculty "adopt more rigorous standards." To do this, itrecommended that public tabulations of the grade spreads of each department be made. Paul Roley,chairman of the committee on curricular problems, said this would "let people see who's giving all theA's." The committee also discussed a program of grade quotas which has been used at StanfordUniversity in California, he said. The faculty is given a quota of grades which can be given. These gradesare then run through a computer which rejects anything over the quota. The committee decided thiswould not work at Western. The Academic Council formed three ad hoc committees to look at Roley'sreport on curricular problems, one of which was to look at academic standards. One of its jobs was tolook at the departmental grade' distribution patterns for the last few years and to see if there is anyevidence from these of a decline in academic standards. After getting these patterns, members tookthem to the chairman of each department for discussion. Chris Taylor, chairman of the ad hoccommittee, said they found three patterns of grading from 1969-70. The same departments almostconsistently fell above, below or very close to the all-college mean. Roley's committee on curricularproblems also suggested as an approach to the problem of rising grades a "return to a single-trackgrading system" which would eliminate the pass/fail system. It reported that "recent studies haveindicated that the pass/fail system tends to encourage a lower level of performance." It asked for aninvestigation of the add/drop procedures, probation/dismissal standards and the use of incomplete grades at Western. Taylor's ad hoc committee on academic standards was asked to "determine to what extent, if any, they undermine academic standards and to make recommendations for any necessary changes." This committee is expected to submit its recommendations at the end of the quarter. (Next Friday: thethird part of the series will look into a recommendation that seniors be given a qualifying exam beforegraduating and evaluating faculty by students.)

The hearing will be heldNov. 8 in Miller Hall 163 at 4 p.m. Senate split on report (Cont. from pg. 1) I do question the manner inwhich the new data was transformed into what I feel is an unnecessarily sour and cutting document."Pointing out that although he was a member of the committee which conducted the survey of the facultyand reported its findings, Kennedy said he had not been present when many of the committee's keydecisions were made. "Perhaps if I had participated 100 per cent, I would not question the editorial toneof the report," Kennedy said. "When the issues are co-mingled with alleged personality traits, as in thisreport, it manages to trample the fact that the administrator in question, Charles Flora, is also a humanbeing and thus deserves to be treated in all fairness." Kennedy said that his misgivings about the reportare shared by most of the student senators. "Just reading the thing gave me a bad feeling," John Wolfe,chairman of the student senator delegation, said. "They (the committee) tainted the report with theirbiases. "Regardless of personal opinions, I don't think the report was fair," student senator Wes Amessaid. "In 16 pages there was one paragraph favorable to Flora, in an issue with two sides, I wouldn't callthat fair." Saying that he believed that many of the complaints contained in the report are valid and thathe agrees with some of them. Student senator Dick Rolfs said that his objections were to the wording ofreport. Rather than throwing in every complaint leveled against Flora, the committee should havelegitimatized the complaints, Rolfs said. There was a good balance on the committee of members whosupported Flora and those who didn't, according to faculty senator Marvin Olmstead, who served on thecommittee. "In terms of time the report had to be forwarded to the Board of Trustees," Olmstead said.Another faculty member of the special committee, Harvey Gelder, said that he feld there was nosubstantial change in the information contained in the report and no personal biases were included. "I feel it was an honest, objective report of the information," Gelder said. "Every faculty member had a chanceto say how they voted and the basis for their vote. We just said what they said. "I can't imagine what thestudents' motivation for voting in a bloc was," faculty senator Brian Copenhaver said. "I voted for the report because based on the. information available to me it seemed to be an accurate report." Copenhaverbelieves that the students may have misinterpreted the statistics of the report. Since the report was astudy of the reasons why the faculty voted against Flora, it's only natural it would sound negative.Faculty senator Donald Ferris said he feels much the same way as Copenhaver about the nature of thereport, saying it would be very hard to say whether or not it's biased. "It seemed to me that we owed thereport to the Board of Trustees," Ferris said. "I personally don't think that all the complaints were valid but this is the way the people interviewed felt." The lone dissenting faculty senator, Willard Brown, said thatits outcome was certainly onesided but that he voted against the report for a much different reason. "I felt that this document was essentially the same kind of report that could be placed in my file," he said. "Idon't think that this kind of report should be made public unless agreed to by both the employer andemployee." â€”Tough Controls on poorly planned developments â€”No more encouragement to polluters â€”A county government which listens to ALL the people.

On the question of review, the senate revised the original motionso review of the implementation of the program would come before the actual initiation. The revisedmotion passed by the senate read, "that the senate endorse the concept of participation by WWSC inan early-release program for felons: provided, however, that any such program be subject to review andapproval of apprioriate agencies, including the senate, prior to specific implementation." Robert Tesheraof the geography department, drafter of the senate motion, told members of the senate that they couldnot compel the review of many things, but that it was necessary for the Board of Trustees to realize thatthe program could not get very far without the approval of the senate and the college community. W h a t c o m Community College and the Bellingham Technical Institute, which will also participate in theprogram, have already approved it. The three-member panel (called the "consortium") that would be setup to oversee the program would initially be responsible for providing "pre-parole education, training,care and supervision of the felons." James Wilkins of the psychology department has already beenappointed by college president Charles J. Flora to do the preliminary work on the program, prior toapproval.

Instead, he asked for a 10 per cent "across theboard" reduction in all college operations, amounting to $650,000. The board approved the following cuts,to be carried out over the next two years: â€”$628,000 from college-wide services. This would involvecombining the college's Arts and Lectures programs, a reduction in faculty-staff travel allowances andestablishing 9, 10 and 11 month staff appointments. â€” $17,00 from the president's office. The currentallotment for the last two years is $317,000. â€”$227,000 from the provost's area. The current two-yearallotment is for $7 million. The cut to the provost's area in Flora's first set of recommendations was$175,000. College business manager Don Cole said the additional $52,000 will come "primarily in thephysical plant area" and that "some library positions will be cut." â€”$54,100 from the Graduate Dean'sarea. The current two-year allotment is $634,000. â€” $11,600 from research and grants, currently$108,000. â€”$128,350 from the Dean of Students area, currently $1.6 million. â€”$109,800 from thebusiness management area, currently $947,000. The board, on a motion from Mrs. Fred Butterworth,directed that the Daugert proposal for college governance be put into operation next year, and that areview of the system's effectiveness be undertaken in two years, prior to final ratification. The new system will consist of a Senate with representative membership from all college constituencies. Floracharacterized the Senate as "no panacea for our problems of communications and decision making," butadded that "it will surely be an improvement upon the current procedure." Election for the first Senate isto be held during the third week of fall quarter. The new system will be introduced gradually with allsectors of the college, except the Faculty Council, Staff Employees Council and AS Legislature,continuing to function as they do now. "I fear that any attempt to launch the concept full blown would be a debacle," Flora said. He added that it will probably take a full year to put the new system into effect.Trial Date Set for 10 Accused of Assault By JOHN STOLPE Editor A July 12 trial date has been set fornine black students charged with third degree assault in the beating of two white students near Higginson Hall last Wednesday night. Another black also faces a second degree assault charge for allegedlypulling a knife on a police officer during arrests at the dormitory Thursday evening. The 10 students, allfreshmen from Tacoma and Higginson residents, pleaded not guilty to the charges in District Court Friday morning and were released on their personal recognizance or bail. Police arrested five of the suspects onwarrants and another was arrested at the scene. Four others, named on warrants but not apprehended at the dorm, voluntarily turned themselves over to police early Friday morning. The nine charged with thirddegree assault are Delaney Jenkins, Solomon Harris, Jr., Karl D. Halliburton, Dwayne Coby, O. C.Thompson, Jr., Admiral Flunder, Dwight A. Mack, Keith Hooks, and Denny Jenkins. Charged with seconddegree assault is Steven H. Green. Thompson, who was also charged with carrying a concealedweapon, will appear for arraignment with Green in District Court Friday. The on-campus arrests provokeda minor rock and bottle throwing incident as police cars pulled away from the dorm after the arrests.Police reported minor paint damage to one vehicle. A crowd of about 100 students had gathered duringthe incident. In an interview, Thompson told the Front that one published report that the students hadjumped the two whites "for no apparent reason" was a lie. Thompson also criticized police for thetreatment the suspects received at police headquarters: "It took the police an hour to get us upstairs.There they put us into overalls and white socks," he said. Thompson said Green was using the knife tocut a pair of plastic handcuffs from his wrists because they were cutting his skin. He denied a report thatGreen aimed the knife at an arresting officer. . As for the Wednesday night fight, one of the two whitesassaulted in a Higginson parking lot was admitted to a local hospital for injuries received in the assault.Campus security officials said police acted swiftly in making the arrests because they had prior warningthat some of the suspects may be armed. One student was arrested with a loaded handgun in hispossession. About 40 blacks gathered at police headquarters downtown Thursday night following thearrests on campus. An unknown number of riot-equipped police waited in the police garage below as legal aids personnel from the college asked the students to leave the building. Although ignoring the request,the crowd dispersed quietly after a police official read the list of charges filed against those arrested.Photo by Loren Bliss.

Trustees Chairman Resigns Burton Kingsbury, chairman of Western's Board ofTrustees, has asked Gov. Dan Evans not to reappoint him to the Board when his term expires thismonth. Kingsbury said Friday that there is no specific reason for his request, except that "I've been at ita long time and I'm getting tired." Kingsbury, a Bellingham lawyer, has been chairman of the Board since1969, and a member since 1965. He also served on the Board between 1949 and 1957, six of thoseyears as chairman. Kingsbury said that his resignation from the Board was in no way caused bydissatisfaction with the present administration. Kingsbury noted that the two major changes at Westernin the years he has been on the Board have been the rapid growth of the college and what he termed thechange in the "intellectual climate." Whether or not this growth should continue is a matter to bedecided by the State Legislature, Kingsbury said, noting that the question is whether to favor a smallnumber of large colleges or a large number of small colleges. He said he personally prefers having a large number of small colleges throughout the State. Evidence of a change in the intellectual climate, lie said, is the increased attention paid to controversial issues. This attention he called "partly good and partlybad." $447 for Residents BURTON KINGSBURY Tuition Hike Approved Tuition increases for the 1971-72 academic year and summer quarter appointments for 1971 were approved by the Board of TrusteesThursday.

The fee is non-refundable, but will be applied to the fall quarter tuition and fees payment. The fee was imposed for thefirst time this year to make a more exact estimate of the number of students who will attend next fall,O'Neil said. "Last year about 400 pre-registered students didn't return fall quarter," he said, and "this leftus holding the bag with the state." Western had to return money to the state this year because the 400students didn't return to school, he said. Marine Center Director William C. Summers has been nameddirector of the Shannon Point Marine Center in Anacortes and associate professor at Huxley College. The appointments were announced by the Board of Trustees last Tliursday and will become effective Oct. 1,1971. Summers will work with a committee in planning academic programs and physical facilities for theShannon Point Center. The Center will be administered as an adjunct of Huxley. Summers is a graduateof the University of Minnesota, with a B.A. in mechanical engineering and a doctorate in zoology. Since1966, Summers has been associated witn the Marine Biological Laboratory at Woods Hole, Mass. DeanAppointment Soon? The Dean Selection Committee has submitted two names to President Charles J.Flora for his consideration to succeed Dean of Western Fred Knapman. Alta Hansen, associate professor of women's physical education and committee chairman, said the committee submitted the names ofWilliam A. Bultmann, chairman of tne History Department, and Richard Purtill, acting chairman of thePhilosophy Department to Flora on May 28. College President Charles Flora lias not made arecommendation to the Board of Trustees but Dr. Hansen said she expected him to make his decision by the end of this week. Knapman's one-year appointment to the Deanship of Western College of Arts andSciences expires in August, and he has announced his intention to return to the Chemistry Department.Campus Sewage A proposed sewage treatment plant at Post Point will serve all campus buildings notalready provided with sewage treatment facilities, according to Campus Planner Barney Goltz. Goltz said last week that all buildings north of the Music Auditorium are served by the present plant, with theexception of part of Old Main. All buildings south of that line will be treated by the new facility at PostPoint. The Post Point plant will be built with money paid by users as sewage fees, Goltz said. "Westernis probably the biggest customer," he added. Scholarships Awarded Katnleen Peasley, a senioraccounting major, has been awarded a scholarship in the amount of $100 by tne Seattle Cnapter of theAmerican Society of Women Accountants. Robert C. Moon, a senior majoring in education and industrialarts, has been awarded a $750 scholarship by Oeser Cedar Company of Bellingham. Professor Receives Fellowship Sy Schwartz, assistant professor of education, has received a post-doctoral fellowship for ayear of study at the University of Connecticut. While at the eastern university, Schwartz will be involved in a program entitled "Understanding Handicapping Conditions among Economically DisadvantagedLearners." The program, funded through the federal government's Education Professions DevelopmentAct, will require a year of study and field work, of which part of it will be focused on inner-city schools inHartford. Schwartz has served as director of Project Overcome at Western, a program aimed atencouraging economically disadvantaged high school juniors to stay in school, and eventually to entercollege. In accepting the fellowship, Schwartz has taken a leave of absence without pay from Western.His salary will be funded for one year, from September 1971 to June 1972 under the federal fellowshipgrant. English Lecturer to Judge James R. Barchek, a lecturer in the English Department, has beenappointed a regional judge for the National Council of Teachers achievement awards program for 1971.Barchek will serve on a judging committee, composed oi college and high school English teachers, whichwill evaluate the writing skills â€¢â€” â€¢â€”-^a^ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ 'â€”'â€”'â€”"â€”' ' " Final Exam WeekEliminated Next fall there will be no finals week as students now know it. Instead, classes will be heldthe last week of the quarter. The Academic Council voted last Tuesday to eliminate the final examinationschedule. According to Fred Knapman, Dean of Western, the final examination schedule as it is nowdeprives students of an entire week of instruction. Before the Council passed the ruling, faculty opinionwas polled and nearly 50 per cent were in favor of doing away with the finals schedule. Knapman hopesthat elimination of finals week will tend to de-emphasize the final exam and spread student evaluation out more evenly. If a final is given, it will be during :a regular class period. Knapman added that the newsystem is a better one because it doesn't force one pattern on everyone. Fall Quarter Enrollment BelowExpectations Fall quarter enrollment for freshman and transfer students, a key budgetary concern, ispresently below expectations and may add to Western's fiscal problems. Dick Riehl, admissions officecounselor, said Friday that, when compared to figures for this time last year, freshman and transferstudent enrollment is down 470. He said 1,749 freshmen and 913 transfer students have been accepted.Riehl said Western is hoping to get 1,800 new freshmen and that 2,100 applications are needed to insure reaching that goal. He now expects only 1,600 freshmen for fall quarter. Last year Western fell 200 short on fall quarter enrollment and had to return $300,000 to the state coffers. "We probably won't reach thecut-off point in either area," he said. "Last year freshman acceptance was closed off in May, but this year we're wide open for both freshman and transfers." Riehl said that out-of-state freshmen will be acceptedthis year; last year they were not. Western needs a fall quarter enrollment of 10,000 to insure a 9,700student average throughout the year. Mike Barnhart, administrative assistant to President Charles Flora,said that if Western falls 300 students short of the target enrollment, $407,273 will have to be returned tothe state general fund and $150,000 in local revenue will be lost. Calvin Mathews, director of collegerelations, said that part of the drop in applications, when compared with last year, can be attributed to the University of Washington's (UW) continued acceptance of freshman and transfer students. He said theUW had already stopped accepting applicants by this time last year. "Those not accepted by theuniversity put out panic applications to all the state schools," he said. Riehl said the drop in applicationswas due to t u i t i o n increases, a "shakey economy," unemployment among college graduates, and"the fact that the draft is not breathing heavily down people's necks." He added that the drop inenrollment is "not going to be a one-year phenomenon." "In the next few years you can expect to^seefewer numbers clamoring to get into college," he said. "There are other ways to be educated." BuildingFunds Inadequate, Campus Planner Goltz Says M M ^ i i ^ M ^ M ri* Campus Planner Barney Goltz said last week tnat the State Legislature did not give the college nearly enough money for building andmaintenance. "Even if our enrollment is frozen, we don't have enough money to fully equip the buildingswe are building," Goltz said. "We are especially deficient in the areas of utilities equipment and landacquisition." Goltz said the 1971-73 capital budget for Western was $3,866,400. Tne figure includes: -$370,000 for land acquisition. -$541,000 for renovation of Old Main. -$300,000 for other buildings andground improvements. -$369,000 to finish and furnish the fifth floor of Wilson Library phase II. -$50,000for pre-planning. Goltz said the college buyer had been instructed to begin negotiations for the SouthCampus academic expansion area along 21st Street. nave the money to install the central coolingplant," iie added. Tne control cooling plant, when built, will provide cooling for all future buildings whichrequire air conditioning, ne said. The $541,000 appropriation for the renovation of Old Main will allowremodeling of two sections of the old building rather than one. Goltz said the college originally requested nearly $6 million for improvements to existing grounds and buildings, but the legislature cut theappropriation to $841,000, including tne $541,000 for Old Main. "It just isn't enough," he added. He saidthat Western was granted nothing for six areas which he considered vital: -The warehouse. -The appliedArts and Sciences Building. -The Social Sciences and English Building. -An Earth-Sciences Building. -A technical theater and auditorium. -A recreation and competition swimming pool. ---------- Western Front - 1971 June 8 - Page 4 ---------- Western Front Tuesday, June 8, 1971 FRONT SPORTS Randall Year's Top Athlete The Sporting WordSwitching to the Offense By KENT SHERWOOD Sports Editor If you can't beat 'em, hire 'em. This wasthe apparent attitude of the University of Washington in 1966 when the UW athletic department hired JimSmith as their new varsity wrestling coach. At the time, Smith was coaching the Western grapplers. Inthat season at Western, Smith's Vikings beat the Huskies 41-0 in a dual meet. Since going to the "bigtime" in Seattle, Smith has compiled a 54-29-3 record and last season won the Pacific Eightchampionship. However, wrestling isn't the only thing Smith is well educated in. As guest speaker at lastweek's All-Sports Banquet, sponsored by "W" Club, Smith spoke for half an hour on the athletic dilemmain America today. â€ž , Citing numerous quotes and statistics from national studies, a u t h o r i t i e sand celebreties, Smith hit hard the position t a k e n by most college administrations that athletics isnot a vital part of a university's curriculum. "A national survey," Smith said, "shows that 83 per cent of ou r c o u n t r y ' s l e a d i nb businessmen and government o f f i c i a l s had a strong background incompetitive athletics." "Presidents from Teddy Roosevelt to Nixon have openly advocated athletics as aform of healthy, competitive endeavor which provide Americans with not only entertainment, but JIMSMITH physical fitness as well," Smith Did his homework added. "Each time a budget cut is needed,"Smith stated, "all the academians yell that the first thing that should be done away with is athletics. They claim that athletics are neither academic nor beneficial to the student in later life." While making clearthat he was not putting down academics, Smith called that kind of talk "a lot of bull." "A recent study,"Smith observed, "showed that with all the pressure and stress demanded in society today, many peopleare destroyed by it, many to the point of suicide. Of those who are successful, an overwhelming per centare former athletes. Athletics and the competition that goes with it gives the athlete the maturity andcourage to face most anything. He learns through athletics that one cannot just quit simply becausethings are not going his way and that he must pick himself up and try again." Smith's homework alsobrought up a study which dealt with student interest in athletics. A university in Florida put a proposalbefore the students listing four alternatives to athletics in light of a proposed budget cut. One was that the school, which was on about the same scale as Western, increase its athletic budget at an additionalcost of $6 per student so that it could go "all the way, to a big time level." The second proposal was thatthe school remain at its present status, not quite big time, but still competitive. Proposal number threestated that cut backs be made, "stripping athletics to a bare minimum." The fourth idea was to eliminateintercollegiate athletics entirely. "By a vote of the students," Smith said, "92 per cent voted to go all theway. Improve the program to compete in the big time." Finally, Smith called to the athletes attending thedinner to get together, "to defend what you believe in." "Athletes have been defensive too long," Smithsaid. "If you really want to save your program you must be able to argue your case for it. Bud Wilkinson,former football coach at Oklahoma, had a saying about defense. 'If they can't score on you, you can'tlose.' "Gentlemen," Smith continued, "we are losing. We are losing because we are being scored on.Now it is time to become offensive and get together to protect the future of college athletics. "It would bethe blight of your generation if competitive athletics Vic Randall, record setting football safety, was named Western's "Athlete-of-the-Year" at the annual All-Sports banquet, sponsored by "W" Club. Randall was voted the award by fellow Viking lettermen and was presented the plaque by head football coach Boyde Long. "This young man is one of the finest safeties I've ever known," Long said. "I don't know what we'lldo without him in the backfield next year. We'll probably have to put four men back there to replace him." Spikers Fail To Qualify Western's three entries in the N A I A n a t i o n a l track championships came through with lifetime bests, or close to them, but failed to qualify for the finals. Mike Page, Mike Vorceand Jim Magee all were eliminated in Thursday's action in Billings, Mont., site of the meet. Page ran acareer best of 48.9 in the 440-yd. dash, seven tenths of a second faster than his 49.6 which earned hima second place finish in the Evergreen Conference (Evco) meet. V o r c e , Evco 440-yd. intermediatehurdles champ, tied his school record of 53.4 in that event, but failed to make the finals. Magee ran 21.8and 9.8 in the 220 and 100-yd. dashes, respectively, both times only a tenth of a second slower thanlifetime bests. Magee, who won the Evco 220 and placed third in the 100, also did not get pastThursday's action. Two other Vikings, Bill Long and Steve Lippitt, qualified for the national meet, but didnot compete. Long, winner of the pole vault in the Evco meet remained in Washington because of finals, while Lippit, who qualified in the six-mile decided to run instead in the Eugene Marathon in Eugene,Ore. Intramural Crowns Won The final intramural championships of the year have been decided with the winning of the softball and track trophies. Winning the softball crown were the Termites, defeating thedefending champion Mick's Marauders by a score of 10-6. The Marauders had gone through thetournament without trouble before running into the Termites. Other tournament teams were the BeaverShots, Scum, D a n c i n g Bear's Cubs, Rosemary's Baby, Pharts and Highland Humpers. The Phartswon the All-Dorm trophy, downing the Humpers 13-3. In track, a tie resulted with the Twins and Betaeach scoring 39 points. The Termites placed third with 30, followed by Highland 23, Pussycats 21, andOCStriders 19. Individual event winners were Ed Seafeldt, mile (4:53.4), Gary Argapao, low hurdles(14.7), Bruce Maupin, 100-yd. dash (11.0), Denny Heinz, 440-yd. dash (57.5), Louis Woodford, 220-yd.dash (24.9), Jim Wright, 880-yd. run (2:09.5), and the team of Gary Walters, Lee Cowan, Gary Nasethand Dean Nordstrom in the 880-yd. relay (1:42.6). Field event winners were Tom Ward, high jump (5-8'/2), Nordstrom, long jump (21-2), and Klaus Heck winning both the discus (153-10!^) and the_shotDua46^L Randall, a senior history major from Burlington, received honorable mention NAIA All-America recognition this past fall. In his four years at Western, Randall was twice named All-Northwest,three times NAIA District I, and three\%ies All-Evergreen Conference. The 5-9, 165-pound four yearletterman intercepted nine passes this past season for a school record, raising his career theft total to26, also a Western mark. Randall will graduate this year to become football coach at Tillimook HighSchool in Tillimook, Ore. He will be in charge of the defensive backfield. Jim Smith, head wrestlingcoach at the University of Washington and former Western mat coach, was the evening's guest speaker. Smith spoke on intercollegiate athletics and the budget problems they face. Dean of Students BillMcDonald was the banquet's master of ceremonies.

The agreement calls fora cease-fire effective tomorrow at 4 a.m. PST. and complete withdrawal of U.S. troops coinciding withthe release of all war prisoners. The major points of the agreement as outlined by President Nixon in aspeech Tuesday were: â€” An internationally supervised cease-fire will go into effect tomorrow at 4 a.m.PST. â€”The release of all Americans "held prisoner of war throughout Indochina" within 60 days. â€”The withdrawal of the remaining U.S. forces in Vietnam in the same time frame. â€”"The fullest possibleaccounting" for all those missing in action. â€”A guarantee that the people of South Vietnam will have"the right to determine their own future without outside interference." Nixon called the settlement, whichwas initialed by presidential adviser Henry Kissinger and Hanoi's Le Due Tho in Paris Tuesday, "a justand fair peace." The president said he joined North Vietnam in hoping that the accord "will ensure stable peace in Vietnam and contribute to the preservation of lasting peace in Indochina and Southeast Asia."He said the settlement has the full backing of South Vietnamese president Nguyen Van Thieu, andpledged the U.S. will recognize Thieu's government as the sole legitimate government of South Vietnamand will continue to supply it aid. But Thieu was decidedly more pessimistic in his assessment of theagreement in an address to the people of South Vietnam Tuesday. Thieu said that he considered thepeace agreement only as a cease-fire that did not guarantee "a stable, long-lasting peace." "I say this is only a cease-fire agreement, not more or less," Thieu went on to say. "In the days to come, we will seeif the communists will observe the agreement." Meanwhile congressional critics of Nixon's war policiesexpressed doubts that the agreement will bring the end to the United States' longest and probably mostcontroversial war. "We have fought the war with so many illusions," Sen. Frank Church, D-Idaho, said."Let us have no illusions about the peace." "It is no more than a truce, and may last no longer than theearlier truce in 1954 when the French withdrew." "The key question is can this peace last," Sen.Edmund Muskie, D-Maine, s'aid. Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said, "Our prayer now is that thepeace we have attained is a true peace." While a settlement was assured from both sides the fighting inVietnam continued. Communist ground attacks doubled Tuesday over the previous day, according tothe South Vietnam command. It was apparently the beginning of an expected communist offensivebefore the cease-fire goes into effect. Military sources in Saigon said American bombing raids oncommunist targets in South Vietnam were proceeding normally, and they knew of no order to curtailoperations. Western Indians support net fish-in demonstration by BILL DIETRICH Approximately 30Western students, the bulk of them from the American Indian Student Union (AISU), joined a state-widecoalition of Indians on the banks of the Nisqually River between Tacoma and Olympia Tuesday todemonstrate their support for Indian net fishing in violation of game department regulations. Indianorganizers had expected a confrontation with the game department officials who had confiscated adozen Indian nets on the Nisqually in the preceding week. The officials did not appear during thedemonstration which lasted from 8 a.m. until after dark. Sid Mills, a Nisqually Indian who cast his net inthe river, was not surprised at the absence of government force. "I know the pigs won't show up today,"Mills told newsmen Tuesday as a captured steelhead flopped in his boat. "They're too chickenshit."When this crowd leaves," he continued, nodding toward the 100 (continued on page 3) VIGILENDINGâ€”Professor Howard Harris says this Friday may be his last in front of the Federal Building.

The committee has recommendedthat the present general education program be dropped in favor of a "block-credit" approach to therequirements. Under the proposed system the number of credits in a required field will be specified, andthe student will be free to choose from among a block of classes satisfying the requirement. The AdHoc Committee on General Education made its proposals to the Academic Council on Tuesday. Thecouncil voted to postpone its decision on the recommendations until its Feb. 13 meeting in order to allowstudents and faculty time to read and discuss the report. Under the proposed system, required courseswill be broken down into five groups. For each of these groups there will be a block of classes which willfulfill the requirements. In order to decide which classes satisfy the requirements, the committeesuggested the formation of a four-member requirement committee whose job it will be to approve andcompile the blocks of classes from classes proposed by the departments. The five requirement groupsare: COMMUNICATIONS, six credits English 101 (three credits) and one other approved course.HUMANITIES, 20 credits. Chosen from among approved courses offered by the departments of art,English, foreign languages, general studies, history, music and philosophy. Coursework must bedistributed among at least three departments with no more than ten credits taken in any one department except general studies. If eight credits or more are taken in general studies, that may count as twodepartments. THIRD WORLD STUDIES, eight credits Chosen from among approved courses, dealingwith the Far East, Southeast Asia and India, the Middle East, Sub-Shaharan Africa, Latin America or the Minority Experience in America. All eight credits must be taken in one of these six areas. The generalstudies department may offer courses to satisfy the entire requirement. SOCIAL SCIENCES, 17 creditsChosen from among approved courses offered by the departments of economics, general studies,geography, political science, psychology, and sociology/anthropology. Coursework must be distributedamong at least three â€¢ departments with no more than ten credits taken in any one departmentexcept general studies. If eight credits or more are taken in general studies, that may count as twodepartments. MATHEMATICS AND SCIENCE, 19 credits. One approved mathematics or computerscience course, (three credits). Students with at least three years of high school mathematics maysubstitute an approved logic course (three credits). For students with at least four years of high schoolmathematics, this requirement may be waived and the math/science requirement reduced by threecredits. Three approved science courses in the departments of biology, chemistry, geology and physicsdistributed among at least three of these four departments. A fourth approved course in the physical ornatural sciences will also be required. The total number of credits comes to 70, but ten of those unitsmay be taken in electives in the student's major. Also, a four-unit waiver in Math/Science is available forstudents who have completed an equivalent science course above the sophomore level in high school. A four-unit waiver and ten credits applied toward a major will bring the number of required credits to 56. The present general education program requires at least 55, and, with some options, as many as 83 credits. The committee also recommended, however, that "sheltered electives" amounting to 20 credits berequired. These "sheltered" credits will have to be taken from at least two departments. They may not be taken from the major department, nor be a requirement for the major, but the credits may be taken inprofessional teaching courses. If the proposed changes are made, there will be a period of time duringwhich students who entered school under the present program will be finishing their required courses.Rather than maintain two general education programs, the committee recommended an interim program. The interim program will require six credits in communications, 18 credits in humanities, eight credits in social sciences and four credits in third world studies. This program will allow those studentscompleting requirements to participate in the new program without an increase in the number of creditsthey must complete. MORE FLEXIBILITYâ€”Louis Barrett headed committee that drew up reportproposing sweeping changes in the general education program. Academic Council is hopeful the changes proposed by its Ad Hoc Committee on General Education will create a stir. Plans are being made tomake the report available to all students and faculty in an attempt to elici+i comment. The report of thecommittee admits to being uncertain as to the full impact of the changes. Although some shifts indepartmental enrollment patterns are expected, no one can say with certainty, for example, how manystudents will choose to take Art 190 when they are free to choose not to. Similarly, the committee isuncertain about how the program will affect students thinking of coming to Western. The reportexpresses hope that the flexibility of the new program will appeal to prospective students. The reportalso expresses the fear that the 70-credit total might frighten away students. It carefully points out thatwith 10 credits applied toward the major and the bulk of students eligible for four-credit waivers, the totalfalls to 56 units which the report terms competitive with other state institutions. The report concludesthat the new program will be different, but the difference will be to Western's advantage. "We areconvinced that Western should be different . . . ." The Third World studies block of the requirements isunique within the state and it is hoped that this, in connection with a generally high-quality program, willattracct students. Administrative reorganization All-College Senate asks Flora to waft on plan by ALICECOLLINGWOOD College President Charles J. Flora has been asked by the All-College Senate to wait on his plans for administrative reorganization. The senate wants a chance to study a Faculty Councilevaluation of the administration's performance before Flora takes action on his plan. Flora had submittedto the senate his plan for reorganization of the college administrative structure and had asked for thesenate's recommendations. "Flora's plan would have the dean of students, business manager of thecollege, executive assistant to the president and a chief academic officer reporting directly to thepresident. The chief academic officer would be a proposed academic vice president, to take over thefunctions of the provost. Senators discussed the plan for about an hour and a half Monday night, thenpassed a motion requesting that the president take no formal action "until the senate shall have had anopportunity to consider his recommendation and to recommend its action in light of the Sauer Report."The report, an evaluation of the performance of top-level college administrators, is being prepared by acommittee of the Faculty Council, headed by John Sauer of the psychology department. The committeewill make recommendations to the college president, and the Faculty Council concerning possiblechanges in organization, personnel, responsibility and functions of top-level administrators. Under thecurrent ad hoc administrative structure, the dean for research and grants and the graduate dean alsoreport directly to the president. With the proposed reorganization, these two officers would report directlyto the president on external responsibilities. The dean of research and grants has contact withgovernmental and private foundations; and the graduate dean is involved in such outside organizations asthe State Council on Higher Education. Flora considers his direct contact with these deans important.On internal responsibilities, these two deans would report to the academic vice president. Other officesreporting to the academic vice president under the proposed reorganization plan include the dean of artsand sciences, the associate dean of teacher education, the dean of Fairhaven College, the dean of theCollege of Ethnic Studies, the dean of Huxley College and the executive assistant to the academic vicepresident. Current arrangements Flora wants to keep are the reporting of the library to the graduate dean, of the computer center to the dean for research and grants, of continuing studies to the executiveassistant to the academic vice president and of the Safety and Security Department to the businessmanager. Flora also recommends that the position ot chairman of the department of education becombined with the post of associate dean of teacher education to "strengthen the coordination of ourteacher preparation programs among the various units of the College and external agencies." The senatealso passed a motion to have one of its ad hoc committees study the president's recommendation thatthe dean of research and grants, the graduate dean and the dean of students report directly to him. Thecommittee is to make its recommendations at the next senate meeting, Feb. 5. In other action, thesenate approved a charge by its Executive Committee to its Long-Range Planning Committee. Theplanning committee is to be concerned with the policies, trends and programs "which establish theframework and directions of planning" for the college. The committee will be responsible for presenting to the senate on a biennial basis a revised long-range plan for Western which will include a projection ofenrollments, staffing, programs, space and facilities. The Long-Range Planning Committee, according tothe senate's charge, will also be the "primary interface" between Western and the planning units of theState Council on Higher Education and the Office of Program Planning and Fiscal Management. gt; ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 26 - Page 3 ---------- â€¢FrRfey^anuary;2a gt;;:r973 Western cFr.ont Fishing rights (continued from page 1) supportersgathered along the river, "the game department will be back." Indians at Franks Landing, where thefishing boats were launched, said on Wednesday that they would continue the fish-in. Indian supportersincluded Chicanos, Blacks and Whites. They huddled around campfires until nightfall waiting for a battlethat never came. The fish-in was the latest in a decade-long series of skirmishes, demonstrations andarrests over Indian fishing rights on Washington's rivers. The State Game department told the Front ithad no objection to an Indian demonstration and said it would interfere with the fishermen only if theircatch was "detrimental to the fish run." The department said it did not consider Tuesday's catch asdetrimental. Romana Bennett, an Indian activist who put the Western contingent up for the night in herhome, explained that Tuesday's show of numerical strength was designed to halt game departmentharrassment and confiscation of fishing equipment until pending court cases on Indian rights are settled.She said that the $50 Indian nets returned after confiscation are slashed or rotted, the outboard motorsare broken and the boat hulls battered or filled with holes. Randy Lewis, one of the organizers atWestern, planned to return to the Nisqually today. Controversy involves Indians, fishing priorities Thefishing controversy that Western's American Indian Student Union (AISU) became involved in Tuesday isultimately a battle over two questions. The first is whether a minority group of Indian professionalfishermen or a majority of white sport fishermen have priority on river fishing. The second, and moredifficulty to resolve, is what the role of the Indian in American society is supposed to be. "Many familiesare dependent on fishing," Indian activist Ramona Bennett told the Front. "It isn't something cute likebasket weaving." But sportsmen, "vigilantes" and game department officials, she says, fearful that rivergillnetting will destroy game fishing, "come out to win the west," and stop the Indian catch. The legalramifications of the controversy go back to 19th century treaties when Indians were pplaced onreservations but given certain fishing rights on state rivers. There earlier agreements have become bogged down in a tangle of conflicting laws and the realities of the 20th Century. If put to a vote between Indianleader attacks 'hostile attitude' by Federal agencies by JIM BROOKS The Nixon Administration'sresponse to the Twenty-Point Proposals advanced by the Trail of Broken Treaties Caravan is virtuallymeaningless and reflects the hostile attitude which federal agencies and officials have maintained against the Indian people, said Hank Adams. Adams, a Washington State Indian leader and chief negotiatorbetween the White House and the Indians who occupied the national office of the Bureau of Indian Affairslast November, said, "In the past two months, in a series of national and regional meetings, officials frommore than 150 Indian tribes have endorsed the Twenty-Point Proposals in general, in spirit, and in manyof their specifics." But, he said, the Administration has remained deaf to the Indians' demands andinstead, has directed its efforts to prosecuting the participants in the occupation. Adams said that amember of the White House staff told him the FBI is concluding investigations that will allow them "to get as many of you guys as we can." "We do not expect rewards for acts of destruction. But, we think thatsome response other than punishment and reprisals is justified in relation to the Indian people who haveattempted to eliminate the inefficiency and failure which the Administration has supported, accepted and proposes to continue," Adams said. On the other hand, White House aides have said that many of the20 demands would be met if Congress would simply act on the legislative Outreach helps hassled vefsproposals made by the President in 1970, in his special Indian address. The White House stated that aspecial Indian Water Rights Office was established by the Nixon Administration within the InteriorDepartment, but failed to mention that the new office is critically underfunded. The Indian leaders hadcalled for the restoration of a 110-million acre native land base. The White House replied that Indian tribes now own 50 million acres and the recent Alaska land settlement gave 40 million acres to Alaska natives. However, the 20 million additional acres are now tied up in litigation under the Indian ClaimsCommission which still has 250 cases pending. The White House also blamed Congress for not acting to rescind the Termination Resolution of 1953, which set forth a national policy of dissolving the AmericanIndian as quickly as possible into the American mainstream. An Indian grand jury, special protections for Indian religions and other demands were termed racially discriminatory by White House officials. Thefailure of the federal government to reduce the chronic lack of adequate income-producing in reservationcommunities is an example of the failures in all areas of federal program activities, Adams said."Although the federal Indian budget has more than doubled in the past four years, there are now about10,000 more Indian adults on reservations who are unemployed than the number of Indian workers whowere without jobs four years ago," he said. Adams continued, "The failure of this Administration tocomprehend and respect Indian people's special and unique relationship to the federal government andthe American nationâ€”historically and nowâ€”goes far in explaining its failure to provide appropriate andeffective protections to Indian properties, rights and lives." sportsmennd Indians, the Indians would nothave a chance. If arbitrated by the state game department, the funding of which comes from hunting andfishing license fees, the Indians again would not have a chance. They may have a chance in court. Inthe meantime, they have been fighting with the game department, the police and the army on rivers upand down the state for years. Feuding has become so commonplace on the Nisqually River that theopponents are on a first-name basis. It isn't another Indian war. The Indians fight to lose, feeling thatarrests are easy publicity for a cause the white world would prefer to ignore. But the stakes are high. The fishing question raises othersâ€”are Indians to be assimilated into the White economy? If so how, andat which race's expense? If they can't fish, what options does society offer them? If they can fish, arethey supposed to support themselves on reservation and off in the traditional ways, keeping their distance from the American mainstream? Day Care Cooperative needs kids Since the College Cooperative Day Care Center is in need of more children, they are now opening their services to Western's faculty andstaff. The Co-op Nursery has room for 15 families. The reason for the extra room can be attributed topeople dropping out. The decline is a result of the beginning of a new quarter with students graduating orjust leaving the college. The Co-op Nursery takes care of children ranging in ages from six months tofive years. The staff of the Co-op Nursery encourages interested people to come by and tour thefacilities located in dorms 4, 11 and 12 at Fairhaven College.

PRINT h â€¢ gt; I C/J Ineed to spread the word? 1 check with us! by JOHN BREWINGTON The passage of Initiative 276 in last fall's general election has created some problems for state employees and especially for thoseemployed at state colleges. In a memo issued to the Western community last week College PresidentCharles J. Flora warned that the initiative "prohibits the use of state funds, even indirectly, for lobbying:"The only exemption to this, Flora said, is when written authorization signed by him and defining thescope of such activities is given. He further said that any member of the faculty, administration, staff orstudent employed by the college who is contacted by a member of the legislature should advise Michael Barnhart, executive assistant to the president, as quarterly . reports must be filed. Flora also urged that any person employed by'the college who is considering contacting the legislature, even as a privatecitizen, read the section of the initiative dealing with lobbyist reporting. William Gingery, assistantattorney general on campus, said the matter is simply that there "must be no state support of lobbyingand anyone contacted by a member of the legislature must tell the state agency which employs him sothat the quarterly reports provision can be met." He added that the current injunction against initiative276 in Thurston County Superior Court only affects lobbying activities. Gingery said that while the.initiative carried to its logical extreme did apply to the college. press, he doubted if it would be carriedthat far. Dick Rolfs, chairman of the Political Affairs Commission, said he felt the initiative "didn't affectstudents at all," since most weren't paid for their lobbying activities. He also said he was waiting for anopinion on what activities those who were paid could enter into. Meanwhile, in Olympia, S e n a t o rPerry Woodall, R-Toppenish, introduced a bill into the legislature calling for repeal of Initiative 276. Hisbill would replace the initiative with a less stringent version. However, the overwhelming victory of theinitiative in the general election and a needed two-thirds majority from both houses, plus the governor'ssignature prompted comment from the legislators that the bill has little chance of success. cc a. vi lt; o X C/5 Z cr a.

A preliminary analysis by the college's Financial Planning Office revealed several problemareas in the 1973-75 operating budget. The analysis is both pessimistic and realistic. Don Cole,chairman of the Business and Finance Council, said he "plans for the worst but looks for the best."College President Charles J. Flora's impression of the governor's budget is that "it is not a good sceneand a bit disappointing." The funding problem, released this week, should be caused by: â€” I n a c c u ra t e enrollment projection ($732,OOUJ. â€”Selective faculty and staff salary increases ($1,032,000).â€”Necessity of a reserve fund ($500,000). Program increases of $370,000 over current budget levelsbrings the total projected deficit to $1,894,000. The governor's budget allocated Western $31,722,000over two years; projected "complete" carry-forward costs are $32,616,000. Western's budget is based onestimates of 9,300 and 9,650 enrollment for Fall quarters 1973 and 1974, respectively. This is nearlyinconceivable at present rates. Western's 1972 fall enrollment was 8,884 and the Registrar's mostcurrent estimates are 8,350 for each of the next two Fall quarters. Enrollment at 8,350 would result in areduction of $732,000 in local-student revenue below that forecast in the Governor's budget. Local-student revenue is the fees paid by the student to operate the college. This amounts to $274.50 per student forthree quarters. Still unknown, however, is the impact that Evergreen State College's retarded growth andthe lower division enrollment pattern of the University of Washington will have on Western's finalenrollment level. For budget planning, the Registrar's projections must be used until there is conclusiveevidence of any other effects. The second major factor is the Governor's recommended budget"reprioritization" to provide selective salary increases for faculty and civil service-exempt staff. Thisshould equal five per cent on July 1, 1973, leaving a $1,032,000 funding deficit, according to the collegereport. However, at last word, the legislature recommendated a monthly pay increase of $40 or four percentâ€”whichever is higherâ€”appling only to non-faculty members at community colleges anduniversities. Sen. Martin Durkan (D-Issaquah), Ways and Means chairman, last week asked for acommittee consensus as to whether higher education personnel should be included in the raise, but this matter was deferred. Retroactive salary increases were declared unconstitutional. Western's finalbudget need, say Cole and Financial Planning, is for an institutional reserve fund of at least $500,000.This is to cover continued uncertainty on, enrollment, local-student revenue collections, the possibilitiesof non-resident fees being declared unconstitutional, and the potential establishment of some form ofgraduated (higher) student fee schedule. Experience has shown the need for a general contingency fund. A 1,000 drop in enrollment could cause an unexpected $500,000 deficit. The net result of comparing theGovernor's budget to the maintenance of the current level ($370,000 more this biennium), then adding the cost of salary adjustments, potential enrollment and local revenue over-estimates, and an institutionalreserve results in the $1,894,000 budget problem. tbo _ western front StQff EDITORIAL PHONE 676-3161 ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160 EDITOR: Jack Broom MANAGING EDITOR: Rodger PainterPRODUCTION: Duff Wilson SPORTS: Howard Scott COPY EDITORS: James Heitzman, Rahn Lahti,Dennis Mansker, Judy Mooers, Dennis Ritchie AD MANAGER: Richard Roff GRAPHICS: Elsi VassdalBUSINESS MANAGER: Terri Whitney PHOTO.

Stannard Jr. ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 26 - Page 5 ---------- Friday, January 26, 1973 Western Front 5 the - western Is this editorial legal? Maybe we didn't read thefine print. Initiative 276, passed by Washington voters in November, is said to be the strongestgovernment-opening initiative ever enacted in the United States. Before the election, anyone who spokeagainst 276 was thought of as an advocate of secret government and political payoffs. Now we'rebeginning to find out that besides opening up state government, 276 also places definite controls on what state college employees can say to their legislators, controls that may not be in the public interest. The Western community received a memo from President Flora last week that attempted to clarify whatcame earlier to the college as a reminder from Governor Evans. The memo states that 276 "prohibits theuse of state funds, even indirectly, for lobbying." Assistant Attorney General William Gingery says thathe has been told to interpret 276 widely and liberally. Taken to its logical extreme, therefore, Initiative276 would prevent all state-funded agencies (i.e. college newspapers) from attempting to influence thepassage or defeat of state legislation. In other words, it might be illegal for the Western Front toeditorialize on such state issues as hitchhiking, college tuition and 18-year-old drinking. In fact, it mayeven be illegal for us to be commenting on Initiative 276. It doesn't seem likely that the authors ofInitiative 276 ever intended the bill to go as far as infringing on the freedom of the college press. Gingerysays, however, that what 276 backers thought they were writing and what the people thought they werevoting on is no longer important. Initiative 276 is law as it is written in the six-page document now beingread by many for the first time. Perhaps the blame for this confusion lies with those who wereresponsible for giving 276 its innocent title: "Disclosure- Campaign Finances- Lobbyingâ€” Records." Ormaybe the fault lies with those who are insisting that 276 be stretched to its limits-to the point where any state employee must report all communications with his or her state representatives. But one thingseems certainâ€”to many people on various levels of involvement with state government, Initiative 276 nolonger seems to be the knight in shining armor that it looked like on election day. Peace at hand, butwhose? The Vietnam War is over, or so we are told. But there are some catches. Though a cease-fireagreemetn will be signed tomorrow in Paris, there are different interpretations of that agreement. Le DueTho, North Vietnam's negotiator in Paris, claims there is only one Vietnam; the agreement says theSouth Vietnamese will have the right "to determine their own future without outside interference."President Nixon said the U.S. will continue to recognize and aid the Thieu government in South Vietnam. North Vietnamese troops are making heavy assaults into South Vietnam in a last grab for territory; theirpresence in the south will continue after the cease-fire agreement is signed. But Le Due Tho claimed in a press conference Wednesday that there are no North Vietnamese troops in South Vietnam-and he saidthere never have been! Thieu claims this cease-fire agreement is no real guarantee of peace. Nixon, after telling us Tuesday that we had "concluded an agreement to end the war and bring peace and honor,"said Wednesday that this is a fragile cease-fire agreement. What could be more fragile than a paperagreement which is interpreted differently by the parties involved? But we do have hope. We can hopethat the POWs are brought home and the MIAs are accounted for before fighting resumes-and it lookslike it might. We can hope that since we have finally disentangled ourselves from a dreadful mistake, wewill have the sense to stay out of trouble next time. And finally we can hope that the internationalconference to be held next month to work out final details in the peace agreement will be able to resolvethe differences between the two Vietnams. If the conference can do this, it will take away from ourgenerals and other hawks any excuse to return to Vietnam. Alice Cpllingwood . commentary Studentevaluates self study project These comments concern a December article which dealt with theAcademic Council and self-study project, and the faculty-student disagreement over the nature ofeducation at WWSC. In the article dealing with self-study, Ray Romine stated that he saw a conflict inlearning processes, the standard traditional cognitive versus the experimental methods of self-study. Theacademic council did not approve of sociology 100 and 300 being conference courses becausetraditionally conference courses have been numbered 300, 400, and 500. Also mentioned was that theself-study project was supervised by only two faculty members; George Kriz Jr. was quoted, "500students certainly are not being adequately supervised by two instructors." Chris Taylor from psychologyand Paul Roley from history both voiced disapproval of student instruction and evaluation. Kriz alsocommented that peer-type education was a contradiction because students are not qualified to teachother students . . . . Does being a faculty member imply supervising abilities? Consider that althoughthere are only two faculty supervisors with the project, there also are several professors who have offeredtheir help. The actual project staff consists of the director, who was previously involved with self-study atthe California school, the Dean of Students, the head of residence hall programs, two graduate interns instudent personnel, and an advisor with a degree in political science and history. What attitudes, viewsand advice would an increased number of faculty supervisors present that would vary in great degrees from the present project staff and resources? Furthermore, how many faculty members have taken the time to view, read, and study the nature, origin and philosophy involved with the Drug Education-Self-Studyprogram? In the article that dealt with faculty-student disagreement over curriculum, members of theAcademic Council voiced their opinion that Western's educational policy should be one in which thereexists calculated and recognizable excellence, and that Western should be noted as the guiltyundergraduate college in Washington.. In the two articles I see some important issues worth considering. College education is not compulsory. Most students venture to college by their own choice. Why doprofessors teach in college? To maintain an educational system that is conducive to their own personalneeds and satisfaction, i.e. research, experiments and publications? Or are they trying to meet theneeds of the students? Ideally, the students' and professors' needs might be met more or lesssimultaneously. Consider the various degrees of student motivation involved. A ' student upon enteringWestern might have a general idea of a future career, some direction and goals, topics and areas ofinterest, and be pretty much self-motivated. On the other hand the beginning student may not know justwhat he or she desires, is not directed toward anyone subject area, but is still motivated to learn.Viewing the different types of educational possibilities discussed in the Western Front, one begins to seethree rather general areas. First, the sort of "free school", self-directed and self-motivated ideas of studywhere students work in areas of their own interests learning from peers, selected books, teachers andBellingham community resources. From this area a student works from a specialized area of interestsand in the process may touch upon more general topics, but he is meeting his needs, and is doing sounder natural motivation. Second, an open education style where a student studies to learn the basicskills of a particular area and then specializes more thoroughly through independent study and conference courses. Third, the most traditional style in which a student follows through a completely pre-plannedcurriculum toward a degree. Consider once again the degrees of motivation and self-direction. Area oneand two meet the needs of the more motivated student, and area two and three can meet the needs of the motivated, but less directed student. Unfortunately, these actual conditions do not exist yet. A ratherantagonistic situation becomes visible. Students are verbalizing more concern for Western meeting theirneeds and motives; whereas some professors and the Academic Council are tending to say, "we knowwhat is best for you students; you are not qualified to make such decisions." Is the issue the needs of the students versus the needs of the professors? I think partially, but more an issue of just what qualityeducation is. I am wondering if quality education might involve meeting the needs of the range of students from the very motivated, self-directed to the more undecided students. Is it not possible to have a college where there could be: (1) very independent work, (2) some skill learning and pre-planned curriculumfollowed by more independent work, and (3) a very structured pre-planned curriculum, all three possibilities being available for the variety of Western students? It appears somewhat ironic that a very motivatedstudent in technology is required to take humanities when he originally has no such motivation. Hebecomes frustrated with the class and unhanov, and the teacher becomes angry and frustrated with thestudent's lack of interest. I see no quality or excellence of education involved. Perhaps later in his studies the student will touch upon the humanities, but only by his own choice. The situation might be better forboth the student and teacher. A liberal arts type of education may meet the needs of some students, butthere is evidence that it is not meeting the needs of all students. I wonder why there is such stiffopposition from the faculty and the Academic Council concerning educational changes at Western.When I read a comment that students are not qualified to be teachers, or Western must maintain qualityand excellence in undergraduate education, I cannot help but wonder if there exists a tendency amongsome faculty not to have very thoroughly considered what real excellence and quality education involves.Times are a-changin'. â€ž. . â€¢ , ** Times are a changin . Mark Soderstrom Senior, PsychologyRidgeway Omega ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 26 - Page 6 ---------- 6 Western Front Friday, January 26, 1973 New music curriculum aimed towards students by DENNISMANSKER There is a revolution going on in music education and most people don't even know that it'shappening. The revolution is the Manhattanville College Music Curriculum Project, which has studiedmusic education curricula of public school children over a five-year period. As a result of the study,radical changes in public school music education have been proposed. Americole Biasini, of Western'smusic faculty, has been associated with the project from its inception. Biasini knew Ronald Thomas, the originator of the project, when they taught in the public schools in New York. Through their friendshipBiasini was introduced to the new ideas in music education. The difference between the new system and more traditional systems of teaching music in the public schools, Biasini said, is that the newcurriculum is student-centered. Music, he said, exists on three levels: it is a medium of expression, itexists as a contemporary medium that can change daily and is sensitive to changes in the socialstructure, and it is a vehicle for the search for individual creative fulfillment. Following the publication ofthe findings concerning music education in the public schools, the project undertook a three yearprogram to study the college music curricula of music education students who will eventually apply therecommendations to public school teaching. "Once this conclusion was arrived at," Biasini said, "learning conditions had to be discovered that would foster various musical behaviors that would allow students towork more openly to discover the most within them." The project was started in 1966 by Ronald Thomasat Manhattanville College, a small liberal arts school in upstate New York. The five year study of publicschool music curricula was funded by the United States Department of Education. It was an attempt todiscover alternatives to traditional systems of music education. To write music is to organize soundsand silences in time The three year college project, begun in August. 1970, was undertaken to find away of dealing with the problem of preparing instructors competent to teach the new system. Western,through its music department, elected to become one of the 12 colleges across the country participatingin the study. Biasini sees the role of the music educator in this new light not as a teacher but rather as a"lab manager." Ultimately, he said, the teacher strives for a series of musical behavior patterns in hisstudents: composition, performance, and critical listening to the works of others. He pointed out thatthese differ in detail from more traditional forms of music education. "Composition is just the organizationof sounds and silences in time," Biasini said. "Students manipulate sounds in a way meaningful to them. It can take many forms-traditional notation, devised notation schemes which say new things, evenelectronic or improvisational composition." In performance the students investigate the manipulation ofsound sources. "Any source can be used, including objects not usually associated with musicalperformance." he said. MUSIC REVOLUTION-Western is one of 12 colleges across t music education.When others in the class perform, students using critical analysis attempt to perceive the musical ideasat work and make judgments on the compositions. This is intended not only to aid the studentcomposer/performer but also the listener when he composes his own music. All of this may seem radical indeed to someone educated in more traditional forms of music education in the public schools, butBiasini sees it as the wave of the future. The conclusion of the project's study of public school musiccurriculum has been widely accepted, he said. The biggest area of concentrated effort lies in educatingthe teachers who will be teaching the new music. Although Biasini speaks of the new curriculum inglowing terms, he does admit that some problems are attendant with it. "The hardest part isdissemination," he said, "and convincing other people not directly involved in the project. There has beensome resistance to change, but I think that's healthy.

It is run by Barbara Bieler, of the home economics department, and Kathy Rhea, a part-time instructor. The campus nursery is not connected with the Student Co-op Nursery atFairhaven. "Basically that nursery is a day care center, a nice babysitter for the children. But it is just anursery," said Bieler. "Our main purpose is to be a school. It is an observation and participationlaboratory." "We use the whole campus as a classroom," she said. Past activities have included picnicson Red Square, walks through the science building, and walks to the library to pick out new books. "One day we even took them to ride up and down the elevators in one of the dormitories. One would besurprised how many of the children have never ridden in an elevator!" The children's activities are designed to provide opportunities to make choices. "We hope they will develop feelings of confidence and worth,and develop social experiences with other children and adults." A wide variety of activities is offered thechildren, including singing, reading stories, handiwork and outdoor recreation. The children are chosen by application. Some have been referred by the Public Assistance Department, the Health Department orschools. The children may enroll in one of two sessions. One is held Monday, Wednesday and Fridaymornings; the other is held Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. An average session involves13 to 15 children. Bieler said the children come from "a wide variety of economic, educational or ethnicbackgrounds. "We try to include at least one special child," she said. "By special, I mean retarded, orone with speech problems, or a set of twins, that kind of situation." All the children are four years old."We pick this age so they will be eligible for kindergarten the next year," said Bieler. "We have takenapplications for children as young as one year old, but we just file them away until they are four."Students may help at the nursery by enrolling in Home Economics 420. They work at the school one day a week in addition to classroom work, observation and outside readings. In 1965, Bieler helped organizethe nursery school. It was located in the campus school, now Miller Hall, for several years. In 1967 it was moved to its present location. The nursery is funded through the home economics department. A fee of$18 per quarter is charged for each child to pay for snacks and replace equipment that is used up by thechildren. Scholarships are available to children from low-income families. "It is really an exciting class toteach," Bieler said. Over the period of a year, I can actually see the children grow." ycling center needscapital LEARNING EXPERIENCE-Child enjoys the outdoor play periods at the Campus Nursery.Entertaining activities also serve as a learning experience for the children. classifieds special: see page3. :rgy to the idea.

Heestimates $5,320 as the cost for capital outlays to get the center started. Capital needs include a glasscrusher, balers and a fork lift. Estimated yearly expenses will be about $24,000, of which more than half' will go to salaries for the handicapped workers. The first step toward - realizing the goal is to raisemoney to meet the initial capital needs and initial operating money for the first three months. Accordingto the plan, the center should then be self-supporting. Maddocks has not done all the work himself. Hehas received help from Western's business department, and from Dan Boyer, merchandizing managerat Sears, who is. temporary chairman of the board for the center. He is planning a fund raising s p a g he t t i dinner for approximately 1,000 people, to be held in February. Local government and businessleaders will be invited, for it is they who will determine the success of the recycling center. "I would justlove it if Dan Evans came," he said. A series of meetings is planned to organize the work that must gointo the proposal as well as the fund-raiser. According to Maddocks, about 40 volunteers are needed tohelp with the spaghetti supper, and $600 worth of spaghetti, sauce and salads for its preparation. Otherhelp is needed for various kinds of publicity, invitations, phoning and preparation. The publicity anddonations will hopefully make it possible to apply for grants and perhaps a small business loan,according to Maddock.

Til'2am ---------- Western Front - 1973 January 26 - Page 8 ---------- 8 Western Front Friday, January 26, T973 Free medical, dental services available by SONJA BROWNDo people have a right to medical and dental care whether or not they have money in their pockets orinsurance cards in their wallets? The free medical and dental clinics in Bellingham were begun with thebelief that lack of money should not bar anyone from a physician's or dentist's care. On Tuesdayevenings at 7 the free medical clinic opens its office in the Senior Activity Center at 314 E. Holly toanyone who desires health care but is unable to get it by the usual meansâ€”money, insurance orwelfare. The clinic is tucked away on the second floor of the activity center. The sparse waiting roomfurnishings and all the medical equipment have been donated. Dr. Gary Chiarottino, one of two physicians who work at the clinic, said that even though the clinic is not well equipped, most of the patients can be treated there. There is some free medicine available, and St. Luke's Hospital does free tests for theclinic. The clinic has been set up to treat "acute illnesses." These require immediate treatment but are of short duration, such as colds and flu. On Thursday evenings at 7 the free dental clinic is open at itsoffice in the Bellingham Technical School at 3028 Linbergh. The carpeted quiet of the usual dentist'soffice is a forgotten luxury at the dental clinic, and instead of patients cubicled for privacy, everyoneworks, or is worked on, in one big room. The receptionist's desk is at one end, two dentist chairs standagainst a wall and at the far end, near a lab sink, a dental hygienist teaches OPEN THURSDAYS ONLY-The free dental clinic is presently thriving while its counterpart, the free medical clinic, is about to disband. DISAPPOINTED-Campbell Kintz, organizer for free medical and dental clinics, says that momentun forfree medical clinic has not grown. "plaque control," or how to brush and dental floss your teeth. Noappointments are made for a first visit. It is first come, first served, except for emergencies which aretreated immediately. If an exam shows that work must be done, an appointment is made for two or threeweeks later. The clinic examines teeth, fills cavities, extracts teech and does "root canals," a measureused to save a damaged tooth rather than pull it out. Diane Delceg, a freshman at Western andVolunteer roving assistant, moves enthusiastically from one task to another during the clinic hours. "Iwant to be a dentist some day. I always have," she says. About 10 people use the medical clinic eachweek, and about 20 use the dental clinic. Most of the people using the clinics are between 17 and 27years old. Many are unemployed or on low salaries. If a person receives a full grant from welfare, forexample, old-age assistance or aid to dependent children, he gets full medical and dental coverage, but if a person is under 50 years old, single and employable, he is not eligible for welfare. Both clinics arefree, both were first organized by the same person, Campbell Kintz, a sophomore at Western, but thereis a big difference between them. One is thriving and one is about to disband. Although both clinics areopen only one night a week, the dental clinic can better serve the patients' needs on a limited basis thancan the medical clinic. Exams and preventive care comprise much of the work at the dental clinic. Aperson can wait three days, or even three weeks, for this care, but the acute illnesses will not wait. LastTuesday at 8:30 p.m. the dental clinic was treating six patients; last Thursday at 8:30 p.m. the medicalclinic was ready to close its doors. Kintz says he started the medical clinic by assuming there was aneed, but the nature of acute illness makes it difficult to run. Dr. Phillip Jones of the county healthdepartment says whenever you have a free clinic someone will turn up, but a general clinic should beopen every day to serve the people who need it. Will the medical clinic die or will it find new life? Kintz is anticipating a time when physicians will treat in their private offices patients who cannot pay. The freeclinic will be a telephone number and screening service where persons can call to find a doctor they canafford. One reason why the dental clinic is successful, Kintz feels, is that the six dentists have theinterest to run the clinic themselves. Dr. Chiarottino is now looking for six physicians with a similar spirit. Kintz is disappointed that momentum for the free medical clinic has not grown. He says the clinic hasbeen an ineffectual gesture toward changing the medical profession. Perhaps it would be better to putefforts into legislation to lower doctors' fees, he says. Meanwhile the clinics are open one night a week,filling a need for a small pocket of individuals who are not finding health care in the usual places, thedoctors' and dentists' private offices.

TheHistory Association will operate in much the same manner as Phi Alpha Theta, however the Associationwill allow more students to join and will operate more for the specific interests of Western's historyprograms. Coordinators of the new body are Thomas Horn and Edward Kaplin of the history faculty. "Inthe past, false pride has been attached to the Greek letters," Horn said. "People have joined for thewrong reasons. We are trying to get away from the Rah-Rah fraternity idea." Future activities of theorganization will include the publication of a booklet containing information which will supplement catalog descriptions of history courses and comments by instructors about their courses, grading proceduresand areas of their particular research interests. The History Association will be made up of historyfaculty, history majors and minors, and unlike Phi Alpha Theta, students with general interest in history. Membership requires nomination to the association by a member of the history faculty. Interestedstudents may contact the history department or their individual history instructors.

Since Richard Beyer began to be dissatisfied withhis life and took up the art of expressing himself in stone, wood and porcelain. : Beyer's most well-known piece in Bellingham is his sculpture "A Cougar Sitting on a Man's Lap Drinking" which sits infront of the Wilson Library. The Associated Students Programs Commission has hired him to exhibitexamples of his work in the Viking Union Art Gallery next Friday. The sculptor's two children i n s p i r e d him to begin experimenting with his hands. "I couldn't buy them nice things so I started to makethem," he said. At that time Beyer was in graduate school at the University of Washington studyingeconomics. His unhappiness in the department resulted in such pieces as "Lux-Sit" a wooden sculptureof a building which is stuffed with faces of people and animals. After being "canned" at the University,Beyer went to work for Boeing, work that he found just as unpleasant as the University. His stonesculpture, "Bird Trying to Get Back in Egg," came into existence around that time. Also at that timeBeyer carved out of wood "The Gaderian Swine", which represents Biblical story of Jesus casting devilsout of a crazy man into a herd of pigs, who in a mad frenzy jumped off a cliff. Accompanying this carving' is "Study in the Free Fall of the Business Suit." Beyer soon left Boeing to work entirely with his /hands and his imagination. Well educated and fully aware of his northwestern environment, Rich has noproblems expressing himself. His subjects range from the relevant and political to mythology andexistentialism. But most of all a social realism shines in his art such as his wood sculpture "Rat EatingCheese," a s t a t i s t i c a l sculpture. The sculpture represents the five per cent of the world'spopulation that consumes eighty-five per cent of the world's food. Because "a number of people fear"him, commissions have filtered in slowly. But Richard Beyer "barges ahead," living life and interpreting it, and at the same time seeking "to forego the .processes." B e y e r has d o ne commissioned works inSeattle and Oregon. Because the length of time it took him to finish his piece for Western, he lostmoney and chalks it up to an "enjoyable time." He is now being recommended to do a commission forthe Federal Building in Seattle. A FEAST OF MEN AND SKELETONS-This piece is dedicated to theNew Nixon Administration.

JOHNSON It'sMonday evening and you're listening to your favorite radio program. At about 7:45 you sit there stunned atthe news you have just heard. George Foreman is the new heavyweight champion of the world, knockingdown Joe Frazier six times before referee Arthur Mercante stopped the proceedings in the second round.You still sit there, wondering whether it's all a joke. But it comes over again, Foreman is the newchampion. Improbable as it may seem, Foreman is the new champion, manhandling previouslyundefeated Frazier in just under two rounds. Frazier was the pre-fight favorite. His record was 29-0including the 15 round decision over Muhammad Ali some 18 months ago. Foreman entered the ring with37 pro victories, yet few expected him to last against "Smoking Joe." But Foreman did last with thechampion, and it was Frazier, known for his durability and relentless pressure on opponents, who did not. Frazier is noted for being a slow starter, but against Foreman he came out at full steam.. That proved toFrazier's undoing. Foreman outslugged his opponent, knocking him down for the first time with a shortstraight right hand to the forehead that was preceded by a left-right combination. Two more right hands put Frazier down two more times, and for the first time in his career, he was carried back to his corner. Itwas just a matter of time for the surprising Foreman to finish off the crippled champion. Three knockdowns and 1:25 later, it was all over. The question is, what about that celebrated rematch between Ali andFrazier? Frazier scored an unanimous 15 round decision over the former champion in March of 1970. Arematch was expected. Ali said he wasn't in shape, but since then has found at least once every twomonths. Frazier said he wanted to rest a while. He fought only twice, two four-round technical knockoutsover little known Terry Daniels and Ron Stander. Ali kept plugging for the rematch. Frazier and his campdid nothing to hurry things along. Experts around the country have said that Ali took a lot out of Frazier.While Ali lost the decision, he only had a large lump on the right side of his face while Frazier's face waspuffed and badly bruised. Ali lost the fight for his clowning antics and Frazier seemed sure that Aliwouldn't do it again. Frazier was content to rest. With only two title defenses over little-known opponents, the boxing commission was making noises about Frazier defending against the top contender. It hadalso been over the six-month time allotment that a champion has to defend his title. If a champion doesn'tdefend his title within six months of his last title defense, the commission can "take his title away."Frazier picked Foreman to defend against. Any why not. Had Foreman fought anybody good? It appearsthat is just what Frazier and his manager Yank Durham thought. Foreman had fought only two fighters inthe top ten of the rankings, Gregorio Peralta and George Chuvalo. Peralta was beaten twice by Foremanin two lackluster bouts while never-say-die Chuvalo was stopped in three rounds by the 1968 Olympicchamp. Frazier's manager and advisors seemed to feel that a match against Foreman would be the idealtuneup before engaging in the long-awaited return match with Ali. The match would be a good test forFrazier, and Foreman wouldn't be a serious threat to dethroning the champion. Ali was pulling for aFrazier victory. He naturally wanted another shot at the man who had beaten him for the first time in hiscareer. Ali also wanted to be the second man to ever regain the heavyweight championship. The onlyman to ever accomplish that feat was Floyd Patterson against Ingamar Johanson of Sweden. But nowthat Frazier has been knocked off, there are three men possible who may do what has only been done byPatterson. If Frazier gets the rematch against Foreman and wins, Frazier will be the second man toregain the heavyweight championship. An Ali-Frazier match would probably be set up then. If Ali wins then he becomes number three to recapture the title. Foreman then would probably get his return shot. Itcould go on and on. But whatever happens, for the present it appears that Foreman will meet Frazieragain, with the winner facing Ali. Foreman, however, has said that he will fight whomever the public wouldlike to see him fight, which would probably mean Ali. Foreman's and Ali's styles suit each other.Foreman is a boxer-puncher. Ali is the classic boxer who stops more opponents that he ko's. Foremansaid after the fight that a champion lives on borrowed time. Foreman now has to worry about two formerchamps wanting the title back, not just one. Borrowed time may too short for George. Bowlers hope ballgets rolling An organizational meeting for an inter-collegiate bowling club will be held Monday at 4 p.m.in Viking Union 222. Organizers hope to get enough Western students interested prior to the regional i n t e r - c o l l e g i a t e bowling tournament at Washington State University on Feb. 7, so they canapproach other small colleges with the idea of getting a league competition started.

Tonight the Vikings face the Eastern Washington Savages inCheney. Tomorrow the Big Blue travels south to play Eastern Oregon College. Western, 2-2 for theseason in Evco play, trails Central (4-1) and Eastern Oregon (3-1) in the conference race. Wins thisweekend would move the Viks into second place with a strong chance to catch Evco leader Central next Friday here. The Savages hold a 26-game winning streak at home, including a 56-46 victory overCentral last week. "We'd sure like to break that streak," Viking coach Chuck Randall said before hisplayers left Bellingham yesterday. Coach Jerry Krause is expected to start Dave Hayden (6-8) at center, forwards Steve Hook (6-4) and Larry Meeks (6-4) and guards Dave Kalinoski (6-2) and Randy Schutjer(6-2).

"We're going to really have to hustle down there." Randall had some doubts abouthis starting lineups for the weekend games. Forward Dick Bissell had a temperature of 102 degreeswhen the team left for Cheney and Tom Mount, Western's other starting forward, was suffering from acold. Regardless of how Randall fills his forward slots, he will start AU-American candidate Mike Franza at guard. Chuck Price will go at the other guard position and 6-5 Mike Buza will jump at center.

The Harradprogram is one of healthy sexual attitudes leading to the experience of true love, not just sexualfascination. Rimmer's book is written as if it were a copy of the diaries of four different Harrad students.Each chapter is a different period of their college experience. Although Rimmer constantly reminds the..reader that these are individual j o u r n a l s , he skillfully manipulates the narrative so the reader feels a part of the story. It is easy to feel a part of Harrad. It is, in fact, much easier for the reader to be apart of Harrad than it is for the four students. Each comes from a different socio-economic background,and has different needs and aspirations. Each struggles to adjust to the new life-style and itscomplications. The students are required to live coeducationally, one boy and one girl to a room. Theyare expected to eventually have sex freely and regularly. While assigned only one class at Harrad, acourse in human values, the students are expected to maintain high scholastic honors at theneighboring colleges they attend.

QFDYNAMITE JAMES COBURN RODSTEIGER 9:06 OLDFRIENDâ€”John Blethan makes a pizza at the soon-to-be-closed Toad Hall. A farewell concert will be held at the Fairhaven pizza parlor on Feb. 12, three days before its closure. Ken Imus closes Toad Hall; plans renovations, tavern by MICHELE RAYMOND Toad Hall, old Fairhaven's pizza parlor and coffee house,will officially close Feb. 15. Manager John Blethen said that the new owner plans to rennovate thebuilding and turn the basement restaurant into a tavern. To' Fairhaven residents, Toad Hall was one ofthe few places in the area to eat. It provided students with a place to go on weekends for a pizza, a pot of tea and occasional entertainment. For three years, it served a purpose in the community for people of all ages and types, not just the "hip" community, Blethen stated. "Even old men would come and playchess all day," he said. Folk or bluegrass concerts would be presented there "whenever they happened," he said. The closing of Toad Hall is one of the first steps new owner Kenneth Imus is taking towardsturning old Fairhaven into a high rent tourist area, like Gas Town in Vancouver, B.C. Official reasons given by Imus for Toad Hall's closure were that it did not comply with the city fire code. Fire Marshall DavidLangford explained that Blethen had always cooperated with the fire department in attempting to keep the old facility in compliance with the safety code. This year some minor improvements were necessary tobring the building up to safety standards, said Langford. He added that it is the owner's responsibility, not the renters, to finance the improvements. Imus would not do this because he intends to renovate thebuilding completely, Langford said. The rest of the building, which houses the Bank Bookstore and some apartments, will probably be turned into offices, he added. Blethan stated that Imus' other reasons forclosing the place, included the co-op garden incident, not liking the community meetings held at ToadHall, and supposed vandalism by the "hip" community. Gordon Twiet, of the Fairhaven Pharmacy, saidthat he had never had any problems with the people who patronized the stores in the area. Reactions toToad Hall's impending closure were mostly those of regret from the Fairhaven community. "There won'tbe any place to go anymore, except the taverns . . . and you can't bring your kids to a tavern . . . somepeople don't like taverns . . . ," commented a south side resident. Blethen is attempting to find anotherplace for Toad Hall, but if he cannot find one on the south side, "I'll go do something else," he stated.The fire marshal expressed doubt as to whether Blethen will be able to relocate because of the specialnature of the coffee house. He added that it was "a shame the place has to close." "There just aren't anyfunky places left," Blethen said. For the patrons of Toad Hall, a farewell concert will be held there Feb.12. An old time jam session will take place in the afternoon and at 7 p.m. the Tall Timber String Band,the South Fork Blue Grass Band and Mike Seeger will perform. Admission will be $2. Vosburgh singsFriday at Mama's Neil Vosburgh, a blind Western music student, will be singing at Mama Sunday'stonight at 8 p.m. in the VU coffee shop. Vosburgh, 21, has been writing and performing his own musicfor several years-greatly expanding an interest that started by listening to the radio when he was veryyoung and trying to imitate what he heard on his family's piano. He taught himself to play the guitar inhigh school, and as he got better he began to develop an interest in doing his own writing. Last summer he wrote and recorded his first song, "Somebody to Love," under the name Neil Grant. It is available atthe Student Co-op Bookstore.

New treatment plant to handle south campus raw sewage ^ The Post Point area in South Bellingham has been selected as the site for the new Bellinghamtreatment plant which will eliminate raw sewage discharge into Bellingham by much of the city, includinghalf of Western. The 32-acre site, which is located near the bay and the railroad tracks on Harris Ave. inthe Fairhaven district, will cost the city $830,000 to purchase. Because of a Federal requirementprohibiting water pollution such as exists in Bellingham, the city has been instructed by a federalenvironmental agency to complete the plant no later than the summer of 1973. According to StuartLitzsinger, director of the physical plant and city councilman-elect, sewage from the south half ofWestern is dumped raw into the bay. City sewer lines divide on the crest of Sehome Hill, separatingWestern's sewage north and south, because there is too much for the primary treatment plant downtownto handle, he explained . Sewage north of this line flows into the primary treatment plant while thesouthern lines empty raw into the bay along with the rest of south Bellingham. The following is thebreakdown for discharges from campus buildings: Sewage Treated Mathes Hall Bookstore MusicAuditorium EdensHall Nash Hall Higginson Hall Old Main (north half) Highland Hall Viking CommonsLibrary Viking Union WESTERN WASHINGTON STATE Haggard Hall Humanities Huxley Old Main(south half) Physical Plant Ridgeway complex Sewage Dumped Raw Art Buildings Birnam Wood Bond Hall Buchanan Towers Carver Gym Commissary Fairhaven College Litzsinger's major concern iswhether the plant will be adequate enough to serve the needs of the city in the future. The plant, whichwill have the capacity to serve 66,400 people, "may go beyond its capacity" before it is paid for, he said.The plant must be able to expand, he added. He said that there certainly will be a population of 60,000people by 1990 which only leaves about 6,000 more people who can be served. Don Ellis, Bellinghamcivil engineer, said that the plant will be able to expand beyond the 1990 projections. "There is sufficientarea where it could be changed," he added. The total cost of building the sewage treatment plant will beabout $8 million Ellis said. Some 48 per cent of this money will be financed by a grant from theEnvironmental Protection Agency (Federal) and the State Department of Ecology, he pointed out. At onepoint, Georgie Pacific, which dumps raw sewage into the bay, said that it was going to pay for part of theplant, but "split out and is building a separate treatment facility," he said.

Art 402, inventive drawing, branched into something different this quarter. R. Allen Jensen, theinstructor, assigned a class project for the final. The students were permitted to solve the problem a s agroup provided they met the criteria of the assignment: Part I Do something and do it to extremes,extremely well. Part II For a change, do, make or be, something beautiful, beautifully. The result?Extreme sleeping beauties. The class elected to sleep (a beautiful thing) in the Western Gallery fromnoon until 2 p.m. Wednesday (extreme). The project was a surprise to Jensen and the rest of the jury,George Bishop, Thomas Johnston, Robert Urso and Chuck Scott. "They've done it nicely," Jensen said."The judgment of a piece is whatever turns you on. It's personal opinion with all involved but the classobviously felt this was a valid piece. If I'm moved by it, then they've succeeded." Jensen, expecting to bethrown in Fisher Fountain as part of the piece, chained himself to a lamp post outside for awhile. Givensuch an open problem, he was ready to expect almost anything. Thomas Johnston, one of the jurors,said, "It's a good piece. It's pretty extreme being in a gallery for two hours looking at one piece." Theproblem of getting to sleep in the Western Gallery was solved somewhat by an all-night party Tuesday. A few of the 20 sleepers brought pillows, Happenings blankets and sleeping bags, but most were tiredenough to sleep on the bare floor. Onlookers during the two-hour period varied in their reactions. One girlsaid, "It's not extreme enough, although it looks like something you'd do for Jensen's class. They shouldhave taken their clothes off and stood on their heads. Now that's extreme." Ed Thomas, assistantprofessor of art, said, "I think if I were going to do it extremely well, I'd have an air mattress." Othercomments were: "Can we kiss them and wake them up?" "I guess they're catching up on their sleep."How can they expect to get a grade for an afternoon nap?" Some said they could use a nap and felt like joining in. Despite the sleepers, several people came in the gallery to view the exhibit, George Thomas,Objects in Wood which will run through December 10. None of the sleepers were disturbed however. TheViewers just stepped carefully over them. When the alarm went off at 2, the sleeping beauties gatheredtheir belongings and marched out, leaving the jury to the empty gallery. Maria Meins, one of theparticipants, couldn't really say if the piece was successful. "I don't know at all, I was asleep all thetime." Bob Jones, another participant, felt the piece was worthwhile. "It's not just being weird, it'splanned weirdness. There's a difference. I feel it's art because we did itâ€”we created it." The instructionssay the piece would either be accepted or rejected by the jury. The ballots will be read in Jensen's classat noon today.

PHILIPJONES (county health officer) "you hear all sorts of things about how serious it is . . ."^^mmmmmmm^m^^^^mmm^^mm^m^m^Mitm^^i^^ NO W here now for By KEN RITCHIE The number ofreported cases of gonorrhea continues its ten year increase in Whatcom County. Already the casesreported for the first nine months of this year exceed the total for all of last year. Biggest problem facingDr. Philip Jones, county health officer, is the amount of traffic through his office. Two weeks ago anothernurse was hired primarily to help with the VD caseload. "VD is not the most common communicabledisease as some newspapers report, the common cold holds that standing. "I think there is a credibilitygap, you hear all sorts of things about how serious it is, how VD will make you go blind and sterile, butpeople who have had it recognize that it isn't that bad most of the time. "Ten per cent ot males have nosymptoms at all, 50 per cent of the woman have no symptoms at all. Of the remaining 50 per cent, oneper cent get a serious infection," Dr. Jones said. During the last session of the legislature a bill waspassed allowing the sale of condoms outside of registered pharmacies, locations must be approved bythe area health officer. Thus far no one has asked Dr. Jones for a permit. Most likely form of furtherdistribution of condoms would be vending machines, which now can be legally placed in approvedlocations. Part of the problem about preparing for prevention of VD was outlined by Dr. Jones: "If youspecifically prepare for VD prevention, then this is tacit admission that you are going out with girls thatmight have it and some might consider this an insult. So we boil down to sexual attitudes. "If it is aromantic seduction, then you couldn't even admit to yourself you are romanticizing with someone whohas VD. If it is purely recreational intercourse with no women's liberation I Also nursery commitment with the woman, who admittedly has lots of intercourse with other guys then you could admit it, or you couldadmit it if the woman was a prostitute, therefore in our current college this is very difficult. "I don't thinkthere is much 'just recreational' intercourse. There is a small element of people who do this, there isusually just one romance after another. "So there is this problem, on one hand the use of rubbers for theprevention of pregnancy and yet not cast doubts on the other persons romantic qualities. "I think thereneeds to be a message that: one, don't cause a lot of unwanted pregnancies, two if she is a nice girl shedoesn't have any contraceptives because she has not gotten to that point yet. If she is a promiscuous girl then she is using contraceptives but she will give you VD. "This is sort of a general pattern, if guys arehaving intercourse with a new woman for the first time and if she is using birth control pills she probablygives you gonorrhea if she's promiscuous. 11 she is nor so mature sexually and nox usingcontraceptives, a male should use a rubber to keep her from getting pregnant." At this point Jan Duesel,the new nurse, made the comment that Dr. Jones sounded awfully one-sided. "You have to make himuse rubbers, because instead of her giving it to him he could give it to her," Jan said. Dr. Jones agreed.When questioned on this apparent male chauvinism Dr. Jones gave the medical reasons for this one-sidedness. "Epidemically it works like this, 50 per cent of the women have no symptoms (if they havegonorrhea), in fact they never seek treatment . .. there is a reservoir of infection in certain non-symptomatic promiscuous woman. "The men who have intercourse do not seem to (Continued on page10) A resident of Washington State paying out of state tuition? If you're a woman, the possibility exists.According to Marsha Trew, president of the recently formed Bellingham-Whatcom County chapter of theNational Organization for Women (NOW), Washington State law prohibits a married woman fromestablishing a domicile , or legal residence. If a woman who is a state resident marries an out-of-stateresident; she too becomes an out-of-state resident. And if she is a student, she pays dearly for hermarriage. Trew explained that while many such laws are presently on the books, NOW is working fortheir repeal and for the passage of legislation beneficial to women. NOW calls itself a civil rights group for women and maintains lobbyists both at the national and state capitals. The organization has beenbacking the proposed 26th or Equal Rights Amendment. The local chapter has been active for only aweek, but after spending two weeks with the Seattle and Olympia chapters, including a conference withthe governor, Marsha has a number of ideas about possible directions. One of those ideas will becomereality Monday, when Katie Thorn from the University of Washington speaks to the Bellingham-Whatcomcounty NOW and other interested persons. Thorn is director of the Office of Equal Opportunity forWomen at UW. The 8:00 p.m. meeting and lecture will be held at the Garden Street Methodist Church inroom B. Student services gain AS monetary support By O.K. JOHNSON The AS Legislature last weekpassed a bill allocating $2,000 for a radio campaign designed to broadcast information about studentservices offered at Western. In action taken earlier this week, the legislature allocated $1,419 to helpfinance a college cooperative nursery. The radio campaign bill submitted by Jim Fors, AS legislator, willbe directed at informing the college student about services available in the Viking Union such as theHousing and Employment Commission, drug information, draft counseling, tutorials and legal aid. TodSundquist, AS president, said that in addition to this, newspapers and free facilities would also be used.An opponent of the bill, Gary Duvall, proposed an amendment that would limit the bill to $ 1,000 in radioadvertising. "$2,000 is too much," said Duvall. Duvall's motion failed. Bub Ezell then proposed that thewords "in part" be struck from the bill thus indicating that the entire sum would be spent for radioadvertising. The amendment and bill were passed by a voice' vote. A college cooperative nursery hasbeen allocated money by the legislature to provide an opportunity for parents with children from 6 months to 3 years in age, to leave their children at the center while they attend classes. The nursery will beheaded by a qualified director who will be paid $400 a month. It is hoped that departments such aseducation, home economics, psychology, speech and sociology would be able to use the nursery forobservation purposes. The nursery is suppose be located in the lounge of dormitory three of FairhavenCollege. It will be in operation five days a week from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The nursery will be closed onholidays and during the summer. No announcement has been made as to when the center will open.Committee selects three innovative proposals By PAT BRENNEN The Committee on New and Innovative Programs has announced the selection of three additional programs to be financed under a stateinnovation education project. The programs and two which were chosen late summer quarter make a total of five which have been funded under the $100,000 appropriation made available to Western by the StateLegislature last year for use during the next biennium. The three new programs are: I.A class titledEducation Enterprise, in which students would design and build a product for eventual public sale.Students would also conduct market research to determine what product to build, find space off campusto build it and, finally, package and deliver it. The final step of the. class would involve an evaluation ofthe year's work and liquidation of assets, if any. The class will be offered next year for three quarters with six credits per quarter. It will receive $11,850 in innovation funds to cover the cost of two facultymembers and to set up the program. II.A program titled "Contemporary Art: Tradition and Revolution"which was submitted by faculty and students, ftqm,many,departments including: music, art, English,speech, physical education and technology. This program, funded for $7,500, was designed under thepremise of establishing a continuing interdisciplinary study of contemporary arts at Western with anequal balance of esthetic theory and actual performances. Three elements constitute the program: Twofour-hour 400-level courses in contemporary aesthetic theory and practice, a symposium involving visitingartists and a series of student performances. Under this proposal, winter quarter at Fairhaven will bebroken down into five sessions, each 13 or 14 days long, with a one day break between each one.Students will be able to take one class each session and could take a total of five sessions. TheInnovation Committee allocated $ 11,000 to fund the program. Sam Kelly, chairman of the committee,said the Fairhaven proposal was picked for funding because of the distinct curricular innovation inherent in the five session system. "This is a new concept in higher education," he explained. "It will allowstudents two weeks of very intense study in five separate areas over the quarter." vl ,., * * i , Â»., . gt;â€¢. lt; .â€¢. gt;â€¢â€¢ gt;â€¢ ..â€¢ Â» Kelly added that the program has possibilities of beingimplemented at Western if it is successful at Fairhaven. "The results, either good or bad, could benefitthe college as a whole," he said. The proposals funded to date have received nearly $50,000 or one half of the state legislature's total allocation of $100,000, according to Kelly. He explained that the majority ofthe innovation funds will be used for development of new courses and for the diversion of faculty time toinstruct them. Funds will also be used to organize the programs. The five programs being funded wereselected from nearly 50 proposals, according to Kelly. "In no way do these programs represent morethan just a minor amount of the innovation that goes on at Western," he explained. Kelly termed thelegislature's funding of innovation programs a "catalyst" and said that he believes a large amount of theproposals which had been stimulated by the legislature's decree but which weren't funded will beattempted by their originators anyway. The Committee on New and Innovative Programs will beginaccepting proposals for the other half of the legislature's allotment next .March, .Kelly said* The. firstof'these proposals* will - be implemented next summer. ---------- Western Front - 1971 December 3 - Page 4 ---------- Western Front Friday, December 3,"I S gt;71 Front Editorials.... 'To comfort the afflicted and fo afflict the comforted' Bombing hoax Again this year, campuses will have their share of bombings and bombthreats. The fact is that some social deviates get their kicks out of seeing a building evacuated, orworse, seeing one blown sky high. When a bomb threat is received, it is impossible to determine whether it is merely a hoax, as Monday's threat to blow up Old Main was, or whether the next few minutes willsee death and destruction. An immediate and effective response is needed to insure and safety of thepersons inside a threatened building. In this observer's eyes, Monday's response was neither immediatenor effective. The threat call came in at 12:59 p.m. It was 1:20 p.m. before students on upper floors ofOld Main were notified to evacuate the building, and it was 1:30 p.m. before campus security officersreported that the building had been evacuated. But we observed some students still wandering into thebuilding at 1:45 p.m. They were chased out within a few minutes by security personnel inside, but thefact Bellingham captures audience remains that security had an insufficient number of men tocompletely seal off ail entrances to the threatened building. We realize that there was some delaycaused because the threat was relayed to President Charles J. Flora, who was at a meeting downtown,before evacuation orders were issued. We believe that the simplest and quickest way to evacuate thebuilding would have been to notify the fire department and then to hit the fire alarm. We also believe thatadditional personnel were needed to effectively seal off the building. City police and fire departmentpersonnel were notified, but they were not asked to respond. The last reported bomb hoax on thiscampus was in May, 1970, after the killings at Kent State and the invasion of Cambodia. We wonder:when will the next one be? We wonder; will it be another hoax, or will it be the real thing? We W O n d e r ' DUD Bob Burnett Nobody likes being taken advantage of and nobody likes being part of a captiveaudience. Yet that's the situation college students living in small college towns like Bellingham are faced with. It's a relief to leave the area for awhile. Like driving home to Yakima for Thanksgiving my wife and Istopped for gas just south of Everett. I filled the tank with Standard regular gas at 29.9 cents per gallon.That in itself is a tremendous relief from the exorbitant gas prices students are faced with in Bellingham.The lowest price I am aware of in Bellingham is 34.9 cents (and that's self service). The Standard station wasn't an isolated example. Mobil, Enco, Arco, Shell, Texaco, and the other well-known brands of gasseldom ranged above 33.9 near Everett, Seattle, Tacoma and Yakima. Gas stations aren't the onlyexample of the student rip-off, Bellingham-style. Bellingham is also know to students as a poor place tolook for housing. Where there is housing (apartments, houses or just rooms) conditions are usuallycrowded and prices are high. A comparison with other cities in the state indicate the housing rip-offBellingham people spring on Western students. An apartment that would cost $140 here would probablycost $120 in Yakima, $110 in Seattle and possibly $100 in Everett. These figures aren't simply conjuredup out of thin air. Check the Seattle, Everett, Tacoma or Yakima advertising for apartments and otherhousing. Then compare it to what's offered in the Bellingham Herald or even the listings on campuscompiled by the Housing Commission. Some time ago a friend who had been staying in Seattle dropped by to visit us. He was complaining about the housing prices in Seattle. It turned out he and his wifewere staying in a one-bedroom, furnished apartment with access to a swimming pool for $110 per month. He was nothing short of amazed when I told him about housing costs in Bellingham. Students have ahard time with increasing tuition costs and the extra burden of college town prices shows a totaldisregard for the student's welfare. It is a disappointment to me that students are treated this way bysome Bellingham citizens. Mass action (in the form of economic and rent boycotts and strikesâ€” is one answer to the dilemma. Another is for the college students to take over what goods and services areimportant to students and run them fairly.

Thiscase study took almost the entire year to piece together because the studentâ€”who we will call DingDimwitty-from all outside appearances looked just like a normal student. But as college officialsreconstructed his past four years, it came out this "I won't" student had a strange philosophical outlook on education, Dimwitty enrolled in college fresh out of high school and like most freshmen, he was anunabashed idealist about college classes. For example, the report points out, he told his first roommatehe looked at college as an educational experience, not just as a means to end. "Ding told me he believed a student should learn something while in school, and not use college as just a means to get a degreeand a healthier paycheck like we were taught in high school," the roommate told college officials. Theroommate promptly moved out, laughing hysterically. This was just the first of a series of roommates andrash statements Dimwitty was to make during his next four years. But outside of losing roommates andsaying unusual things to friends and teachers Dimwitty didn't show any real outward signs of abnormalbehavior. To the college administration he appeared to be just another spoke in the wheel, never a cog.Now that the official researchers in the case look back, they admit there were minor signs of trouble when Dimwitty was a junior. Like the time he was sitting in one of those numerous required classes and onceasked the teacher why the class should be required. The teacher immediately reported there was atrouble maker at the school, but this was just passed off as a first offense. The real trouble started whenDimwitty became a senior and sat down with his advisor to work out his final schedule. Up to this point,his advisor relates in the report, he considered Dimwitty as a normal, pimply-faced kid who just wanted toget out and get his slice of the American pie. "We were sitting in my office, talking over his classschedule for the next three quarters when I noticed he had not taken Muffler Wrapping 101," the advisorsaid. (In keeping with the administration's wishes, Muffler Wrapping 101 has been picked to replace thereal required class which is quite popular among students.) "So I told him 'Say, Ding, you haven't takenMuffler Wrapping 101. You know you can't graduate without taking that class, so we'll just sign you up for next quarter.' "Well, you could have knocked me over with a feather at what Ding said next," the advisorcontinued in his shocking disclosure. "Ding just looked me in the eye and said, 'I won't.' Just like that 'Iwon't.' I asked him was he meant by saying that. After all I'm not used to students telling me they won'tdo things as if this was a free society or something like that. Anyway, this is what he told me: 'I don'twant to take it because I have no interest in muffler wrapping. I thought maybe I would sign up forsomething I was more interested in to make up those credits.' "I had to laugh at this," the advisor related, "and pointed out this class had been required long before he ever arrived and would be required long after he left and that nobody ever graduated without taking it. He seemed to be weakening, so I hit him withthe blockbuster. This usually shuts them up when they start to gripeâ€”I've had other students like this,you know. I told him the class was for his own good. "Well, Ding turned out to be more stubborn than Ithought, for he told me he paid good money to go to this school and was considered an adult and coulddamn well make up his own mind about what was good for him and what was not. And he didn't want totake muffler wrapping. Period." The advisor then tried various arguments with Dimwitty to get him to takethe class, but all fell on deaf ears. "Finally I appealed to his patriotic spirit and his sense of fair play. I told him about the thousands of muffler wrappers graduating from colleges every year and how the demand for wrappers has gone down in the business world and there were only a few muffler research positionsopening. I told him if colleges didn't require muffler wrapping for graduation, these people would end up on unemployment and welfare with the Boeing engineers." The advisor said this argument proved to be of nouse on Dimwitty who just said "Tough." So he could only let Dimwitty ga against all tradition and sign upfor the classes he wanted. According to the report, Dimwitty next went to the chairman of the mufflerwrapping department to see about getting out of it. "At first I thought we could work out our differences byhaving Dimwitty take the class and I would just let the whole matter drop," (CONTINUED ON PAGE 5) ---------- Western Front - 1971 December 3 - Page 5 ---------- Frrday/December d, 197! Western Front' Letters from our readers Student-designed ma\ors urgedEditor: Last spring the Academic Council created the opportunity for any Arts and Sciences student todesign his own major. To date, less than a dozen people have taken advantage of this program.However, I constantly listen to students complain because there is no "freedom" but there is nomotivation on the part of the student. If the rigid requirements prescribed by the various departmentsdon't seem to be suitable, then why doesn't anyone try to design their own major? I would urge allstudents to take note of this new student-faculty designed major. Anyone who has even a passinginterest in more than one discipline should investigate further. If one wants to major in a combination ofdisciplines and can show why the two areas tie together, he should get applications for a self-designedmajor. Dr. Buckland, chariman of the general studies department, is in charge of the Student MajorProgram and has applications for anyone interested. His office is in Miller Hall 361.

Stan Cuykendall AS Academic Coordinator All-college Senateauthorship Editor: An article on the All College Senate in your issue of Nov. 19 by Bob Burnettdescribed the undersigned as "the author of the original proposal which resulted in the Senate'sformation." The description is incorrect by a mile. I was for two years chairman of the large ad hoc C om m i t t e e on College Governance, subsequently referred to as the "Daugert Committee," which puttogether the main proposal, later amended and' added to by the "Levin Committee." All the members ofmy group, including students, made very substantial contributions to the design of the new Senate. After a year and a half's discussions and compromises it would be difficult to say what precise contributionanyone made to the proposal. In any case, I was certainly not its "author"! Stanley M. Daugertphilosophy Salutes the work-study plan Editor: I have just read with interest Sue Gawry's article on the work-study program at Western. In the Musicianship Studies program, as well as in several other areasin the music department, we have had over the years several student assistants given a variety ofresponsibilities through the work-study program (and other work programs) at Western. These studentsby and large have rendered a very high level of work for an almost minimal wage. In my area ofinstruction, without the assistance of numerous student helpers, we would have to cut back on severalnecessary instructional and institutional services or simply do away with them entirely. Our studentassistants work as tutors, administrators, clerks, m e s s e n g e r s , repairmen, counselors, programdesigners and so on. Daily they are required to deal in public relations. And to boot, they make prettygood janitors. The judgment and tact possessed by these students, the willingness to follow through ona long and not always pleasant or easy task, the mature skepticism they show when confronted with aquestionable process or routine and the offense they take at a wasteful procedure, all these qualitiesevoke from me Ding Dimwitty (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4) said the chairman, a well-known amiableman who used to brag he taught from the same set of notes for 27 years. "But he kept saying 'I won't'even after I offered him the best seat in the lecture hall. We fought back and forth over the future benefitsof taking muffler wrapping while in college, and he said I would talk until I was blue in the face, but wouldnever convince him it would be any use. "It would appear Dimwitty seemed to make some sort of stubborn cause out this whole thing. He acted like it was being forced on him rather than he was being required to take it for his own good. "He kept saying things like 'If I went into a grocery store and loaded up-onpeanuts and potato chips, the clerk would not have the right to force me into buying vitamin pills becausethey were good for me. I have the right to do what I want.' "I told him the college was not a grocery storewith classes up for sale," the chairman went on. "Even though he does pay money to attend, it did notgive him the right to go against the catalog and pick classes he thought were best for him." The chairman summed up the feelings for all the people who found themselves involved in this bizarre case by saying,"If we let the students pick out all the classes they wanted to take, what would ever happen to ourstandards? Next they would want to do away with grades. We have to take quick action and nip this thing in the bud before it spreads." And nip it in the bud they did. Dimwitty was unceremoniously carried toedge of the school property and dropped, stripped of all honors and his student number wiped from thedirectory. A few malcontents have voiced their objections to the treatment Dimwitty received. But oneresearcher for the case history said off the record, "We'll give them the same hearing we gave Dimwittywhen we were putting together this case." Dimwitty was never asked to testify on his own behalf. thehighest respect. Many of these students would rank with the finest professional people I know. They arequick to acquire the skills. and attitude a job requires. Further, if allowed to do so, the students can andwill administer a highly complex operation under their own steam. Without these students' aid, my jobwould. simply be impossible. With them, my job usually gets done. Edwin M. LaBounty MusicDepartment Grammar questioned Editor: I'm sure you know better than I that the line betweenresponsible reporting and irresponsible editorializing is a fine one but yet a very important one. Thatmany people think that this or some similar distinction should exist is probably one reason why theFront has an editorial section clearly distinguishable from the sections devoted to reporting. It may bethat your article "Procedures . . ." has blurred t h i s distinction in an unfortunate way. The thirdparagraph of this article reads: "As . . . Flora said in his address to the Senate last week, importantquestions c o n c e r n i n g equitable representation, the role of the ex-officio members and the student-faculty ratio, must be put aside temporarily until the Senate can get its own house in order." , I thinkthere are two difficulties with this sentence. One is grammatical and concerns your use of the word as.Your sentence does not simply say that Flora said something. It says that "as" Flora said, we "must"do something. I think you meant to be fulfilling a reporting function, but what you filled was a hortatoryfunction, an exhortation belongs on the editorial page-doesn't it? The other difficulty is one of logic. Itseems that putting its house in order may logically demand of the Senate precisely those activities thatthis sentence urges us to put aside. Not having an exact text of the President's admonishments (Ibelieve that was his term), I can't be sure whether the problem is with his logic or yours. I do want tothank you for the attention you gave my own remarks in your article and to thank you even more forquoting me accurately. Sincerely, Brian P. Copenhaver Faculty Senator, social sciences Supports theSaga Burger Editor: Considering your editorial by Steve Johnston in the Tuesday, November 23rd, Front, I must p r o t e s t . I hear enough complaints about Saga food over the dinner table, and to read a"satire" on it, from a person that doesn't even eat there, is too much. I feel that the origin of thecomplaints is not to be found in the food but in human nature. No matter how good the food at Saga is,people are going to get used to it, take it for granted, and gripe every time it's not an adventure in eating. Ecologists tell us that in twenty years there probably won't be enough meat to go around. It's highlylikely, if not probable, that someday we'll tell stories of when we had a choice in what we ate, and couldcome back for seconds.

JIM THOMSONFairhaven dorms may house elderly By BILL DIETRICH Fairhaven's Dean, Ken Freeman, wants elderlyretired people to live in the Fairhaven dorms. He feels that both students and senior citizens would benefit from living on the same campus. Freeman said that, "There is a good chance for the idea to comeabout." He believes that resident older people at Fairhaven would add to the college's "living-learning"concept and would generate new energy and ideas. "Education is not just working for a future job.Education is also for the quality of life," he said. "We're not doing the senior citizens a favor. We seethem as of extreme value to the community," Freeman said. "We shall all grow old and die. Theexperience of age from older people would be invaluable," he added. Older people would also find newpurpose and meaning to their lives by living on campus, he hoped. They would not live out the remainderof their lives just waiting to die. Freeman said that he has received letters from all over the statecommending the idea, and both students and senior citizens have expressed interest. Freeman proposed rooming the older people in dorms 11 and 12 at Fairhaven. The dorms would be remodeled to make therooms more private and to provide more apartments. Some of the aged would eat in apartments; others in the campus cafeteria. The older people would be free to do as they pleased, and would be allowed to sitin on classes. They would not pay tuition unless they wanted college credit. Freeman would like to findoutside money to help cover the costs of the elderly, and is looking into that now. He did not think thatFairhaven would have to lower its student enrollment to make room for the elderly. Many Fairhavenstudents now live off campus and some Western students live in the dorms. When would this idea berealized? "I'm torn between hope and realism to answer that," Freeman said, smiling. "Hopefully, I'd saynext year. Realistically, I'd have to say the year after next."

Campus security personnel searched Old Main for an hour, but found no bomb. The hoax began when switchboard operator Mrs. Elaine Bergtook a call from the man at 12:59 p.m. and immediately called the security office. Security contactedDean of Students C. W. McDonald. He phoned College President Charles J. Flora who was at a RotaryClub meeting downtown. Flora issued orders to evacuate the building.

Friday, December 3, 1971 Western Front 7 Local officials believe missing students in B. C. TwoWestern students who were previously presumed drowned in Lake Whatcom are now believed to be living in the Vancouver, B.C. area with the Children of God. Whatcom County Sheriff Bernie Reynolds saidthat the two, missing since their canoe was discovered swamped on the lake four weeks ago, have beenidentified from pictures shown by a sheriff's department detective working full-time orf the case. Missingare 18-year-old Fairhaven student Danny L. Vaara and 20-year-old Western student Cathy Kristopherson. Reynolds said that his department is investigating the possibility of a third person being involved in whatmight be a drowning hoax. "We never did think they were in the water," Reynolds said. Chuck Page,campus security officer, said that he had investigated the possibility of a hoax while following leads oncampus, but all his information pointed to them drowning. Both students' rooms showed nothing missing which would indicate a hoax, Page said. When contacted by the Front he knew nothing of the latestinformation offered by Reynolds. Reynolds said that his department will continue to investigate, although,there are no criminal charges involved at this time. He added that they would keep checking for theparents' sake and for the possibility of insurance fraud. Reynolds was unable to estimate the cost to thecounty of the investigation, but he did say that at least 400 to 500 man-hours have been devoted to it.Faculty salary petition drive aiming for 5,000 signatures The campaign to raise faculty salaries is in fullswing and petitions are posted in most buildings. Organizers aim at collecting at least 5,000 signaturesat Western to present to state legislators. The petitions will show the legislators that both the faculty and students are concerned about the salary problem and its effects on the college, Rich Collingwood, one of the co-ordinators, said. Collingwood said that a recent study shows that many faculty have left Westernto accept higher salaries elsewhere. "A young teacher with a doctorate in speech pathology andaudiology from the University of Washington was offered $11,500 by Western, but took a $16,000position from the University of Cincinnati," Collingwood said as an example. The drive will be conductedmuch like the WashPIRG petition drive with the classroom presentations and general- meetings.Collingwood estimated that just over 1,000 signatures have been obtained so far. Students1 health andsafety threatened by roaming dogs The Campus Environmental Committee is concerning itself with theunresolved issue of dogs on campus. The committee's stand is that dogs can provide amiablecompanions for students living off-campus, but they are a threat to the health and safety of studentswhen allowed to roam freely on campus. The presence of dogs on campus, according to theEnvironmental Committee, poses a threat to the college community as a whole. Dogs running in packs,disrupting classes by whining and barking, create a visual as well as auditory disturbance to studentsand faculty. Dogs also pose a threat to blind people with seeing-eye dogs. There exists the possibility of confusion, distraction, and even injury if seeing-eye dogs are approached by dogs running loose oncampus.

The only time he calls, however, is when there is not much to do on campus. The campus informationcenter, located on the second floor of the steam plant, has been in existence one year. Two regular andtwo part-time operators are aided by three students on the weekend and the security staff who takes over the switchboard at midnight. The information center and security work closely together. When inemergency call comes in, the operators connect them immediately with the security office.

Theboard explained to two Western students that they allow only parallel parking because any otherarrangement would block traffic. They also promised to have the traffic division look into the placement ofsigns along the no-parking zone where numerous cars have been impounded in the past. Adequate signs would be installed if necessary. Barney Goltz, director of campus planning at Western, informed theBoard that the college wants to put in a pathway along College Parkway Ed 477 approved as atemporary measure. They intend to ask for an assessment district to make a permanent walk. Theproposed temporary walk would put gravel in the wet and muddy areas between Birnam Woodapartments and the college. City Engineer Ed Henken pointed out the walk would be substandard. Healso wanted to know if the college would provide insurance to hold the city harmless in the event of anyinjury along the walkway. According to Henken most of the abutting property, which would pay for theassessment, is city park property, and he doubts if the city would go for an LID with the budget as it is.Goltz said he would check with the park department. 3DOORS SOUTH OF SHAKEY'S ON N.

The present system is inflexible for changes in payroll deductions and the processing time lag of 10 to 15 days means an extra payroll check must be issuedto cover all supplemental work performed during the pay period. Now the State Data Processing Centerin Olympia is paid an average of $ 1,000 a month to process Western's payroll. The new payroll system will allow local processing which will save money and shorten the time lag. Controller Timothy Kao said this system will give faster and more efficient service. Even though the payroll volume has increased 125 per cent over the last five years, the number of staff in the payroll office of the controller has remainedunchanged. With the more efficient system, he will not have to hire more personnel to handle theincreased workload, Kao said. The advantages of the new payroll system are: -an exact payment foractual services will be rendered during a pay period. - e m p l o y e e earnings statements will providebetter explanation of adjustment and deduction amounts. -an automatic bank deposit service for thoseemployees desiring direct deposit of then-pay into their personal checking account will be resumed.Forensics begin T h e annual Viking Invitational High School Forensics Tournament begins today withmore than 500 students competing in the two-day event.

Shults' loss was a result of his playing slightly for the freshman team at Oregon State University. The 6-5, 220-pound senior from Vancouver, attended OSU his freshman yearand was a member of the cage squad until an injury forced him off the team. However, in that brief time, Shults played a couple of minutes in one game, with Linfield College, and scored two points, thus using up a year of eligibility. Shults transfered to Clark Community College the following year, and afterstarring there came to Western. "Lee Roy came into us and said he wasn't sure about how his activities at OSU would affect his present standing," said William Tomaras, athletic director. "Not wanting to risk hurting the team's chances, he asked us to check it out." Preliminary indications from OSU indicatedthat Shults was still eligible, but records were then uncovered showing Shults' participation. Shults hasnot practiced with the team since the news arrived on Nov. 24, nor was he suited up for the Viks' gameswith St. Martin's Wednesday or Victoria yesterday. Hoop coach Chuck Randall said that Shults' losswould hurt, as it would cut deeply into the Viks' depth. Shults had been a starting forward for the pasttwo years, and was leading the team in most statistics in practice prior to the bad news. JV's defeatSkagit CC Western's junior varsity basketball team fought off continuous comeback attempts to defeatSkagit Valley Community College, 65-54, in its season opener Wednesday. The Vikings led all the way, sometimes by as many as 15 points, but the Cardinals repeatedly cut the lead and at one point camewithin two points. Western effectively held down the point production of Skagit's two tall men, 6-10 Jerry Clark and 6-6 Greg James. The Cardinal duo finished with 11 points apiece. Chuck Fisher and DickBissell were primarily responsible for Western's defensive success. The Viks were led by Jim Hotvet,who constantly pulled down key defensive rebounds and finished with 13 caroms. Hotvet's defense wasalso a vital factor in the win. Western was led in scoring by Chuck Price who canned 17 points. Hotvetfollowed with 12 and Bissell and Craig Nicholes had 10 each. The Viks lost the services of startingguard Roger Campbell when the Jerome, Idaho freshman injured his knee in the opening moments of the game. Campbell will most likely miss the remaining games of the quarter. Western travels to Mt.Vernon tonight to play the University of Washington freshmen in the second game of the Skagit ValleyTournament.

The Vikings ledthroughout the contest, by as much as 20 points with 10 minutes to go, but had to hold off a Saint surge that brought the margin as close nine points. Western relied on a more traditional weapon, defense, to stave off the Saints march. The Viks were led by the 19 points of transfer Tom Bradley. Bradley hit fiveof seven shots from the field and nine straight from the free throw line before missing his final attempt.Center Rudy Thomas turned in a solid performance with 15 points and 14 rebounds. Other Vikings indouble figures were Mike Franza with 12 and Roger Fuson with 10. Fuson was named to the startingline-up to replace Lee Roy Shults who was declared ineligible last week. Arvie Johnson of the Saintsscored 25 counters for game honors. The 6-9 center also hauled down 13 rebounds. Steve Eidsvold andTom Ferrato also hit double figures for St. Martin's, with 20 and 16, respectively. Viking coich ChuckRandall was not completely satisfied with the game however, despite the win. "We played well attimes," the Vik mentor said, "and at other times we played lousy. We ran real well in the first half, butlet it get away from us in the second half. We're going to have to correct some things or we're in trouble." The Vikings had a 21 point-half time lead of 54-33. The Saints, led by Johnson, then Rudy Thomas(44), Western center, goes up for two of his IS points in Wednesday's game with St. Martin's, won by theViks, 89-77. Attempting to check Thomas' shot is the Saints' Steve Eidsvold (25) while Viking TomBradley (30) watches.

Bryant feels that this year's Vikings could finish with the Evergreen Conference championship.The Viks lost only one grappler through graduation last year and returned Lee Andersen at 158 pounds.Andersen, a senior from Hillsboro, Ore., was the Evco champion in his division last year, and went on toplace fourth in the NAIA nationals. "Our goal this year," Bryant said, "is to win the conference title andplace in the top ten at the NAIA meet. We have a lot of talent coming back and some outstandingincoming wrestlers." Among Bryant's new members are Gene Vernes, 126, a past junior college champ,John Donnelly, 142, state freestyle champion, Bernie Rush, 136, state junior college runner-up and GarryRothenbuhler, 190, who placed third in last year's state high school tournament. The Vikings havealready had one success this year, when sophomore Mike Donnelly won a gold medal at the University of .British Columbia tournament recently in Vancouver, B.C. Andersen, John Donnelly, Rothenbuhler andDave Cliner all placed fourth at the meet. "I am really impressed with the potential we have this year,"Bryant said. "We could do very well."

Western will "undoubtedly" go to the increased tuition in the summer of 1972 unless a wage andprice freeze interferes, Sams said. Students who paid $ 120 tuition this spring and $ 149 this fall will pay $165 next summer if the increased fees are approved by the Board of Trustees. "In order to meet thebudget requirements for operating the college, the only place we had any flexibility was student tuition,"Sams said. Western's $30.9 million budget for the 1971-73 biennium was predicated on "staging feeincreases over the two years," Sams said. Students will have no recourse to the fee raise within thestate college system since there is "an interinstitutional agreement" that the fee schedules will be thesame at each institution, Sams said. "We try to be close on fees so there isn't any school shopping," he said. The philosophy behind the agreement is that a student should choose a college because it isdesirable as a place of learning, not because one is cheaper than another. The 1971 Legislature set themaximum level for fees at $169 per quarter for the biennium, Sams added. It is possible that extensionsof the present wage and price freeze could force the colleges to hold at the $149 level, which would mean the budget would have to be cut $450,000, he said. "If the worst happens'and the price freeze isextended and we don't make our projected enrollment, the college budget will be down about $1 million,"Sams estimated. Western's budget now is set at $15,270,709 for 1971-72 leaving an expected$15,658,761 for 1972-73. Figures for three quarters of enrollment at Western over three years indicate the spiraling cost of higher education: 1970-71, $360; 1971-72, $447; 1972-73, $495 (projected). voters Dave Friesen, AS non-academic coordinator, swears in two new voters in the Viking Union. About 350 Western students have registered on campus for the upcoming Nov. 2 election. register here About 350 Westernstudents have registered at the Viking Union registration centers for the Nov. 2 elections in one of thelargest voter-registration drives ever conducted here. County-wide registration closed Saturday,according to Election Supervisor Terry Unger,but registered voters will be able to transfer to anotherdistrict up to Oct. 18. Percentage-wise, 16 per cent of the 41,000 Whatcom County voters registered arein the 18- to 25-year-old category. Political party preferences are unknown, as Washington does notrequire registration by party preference. But nation-wide figures show that the Democrats likely willreceive more new voters than the Republicans. Bill Clement, chairman of the Whatcom CountyDemocratic Central Committee, said the youth vote looked good for local Democratic candidates. Hepointed out, however, that a great many new voters are independents.

College President Charles J. Flora, Loren Webb, chairman of the Faculty Council, andAS President Tod Sundquist, in issuing a joint statement, stressed that this action is not acondemnation of the past members of the board. "A new committee consisting of different people cantake a fresh look at the various With students problems confronting the bookstore and, with theformation of the new Senate, it seems a good time to take that look," Flora said. The new board,consisting of three students, two faculty, and one administrator, will be appointed to assume theresponsibility for regulating bookstore operations. The three student members, a sophomore, a junior and a senior, will be appointed by Sundquist. The two faculty will be appointed by the Faculty Council andthe sixth member by President Flora. Faculty to vote in VU in senate elections For the first time in thehistory of Western the faculty will vote with students in the Viking Union. Last Thursday's session of theFaculty Council approved the faculty elections board recommendation to change me voting procedure.The change came about for two reasons: the lack of time before President Flora's requested date ofelections and the lack of precedent for all-college senate elections Nov. 2 Richard Thompson of thepsychology department suggested that turnout might be poorer if the faculty has to walk to the VikingUnion since "man is basically a lazy creature." It was suggested that the turnout.could not be muchworse than the last faculty elections, when only 35 per cent of the faculty voted.

Thirsk, speaking in reference to the current rush at the registration center, said"many students are just now registering because they were undecided this summer as to whether ornot they would be attending Western this fall, and were, therefore, unwilling to shell out the $50." Thirsksaid that another problem that has caused the registration center extra work is the . new springregistration policy begun last year. This has been one reason behind the number of students who add or drop classes, Thirsk said. "With the students registering in the spring, it was necessary for them tocommit themselves to devising a schedule," he said. "Many of them, after having all summer to thinkabout it, now want to take something different." Students wishing to add a class have to pick up achange of program form from either the registrar's office, Old Main 113, or at the registration center, fill it out, and then wait through the line at the registration center to be processed. Students wanting to dropa class must pick up their class cards from their instructors as well as fill out change of program forms.The same process is used for students who want to change to the pass-fail grading system or from that system to the standard grading system. ---------- Western Front - 1971 October 5 - Page 3 ---------- Tuesday, October 5, 1971 Western f r o n t 3'- Students to assume tuition burden? By BOB BURNETTNot only will tuition at Western go up again next summer, but enthusiasm is mounting in the StateLegislature for the so-called "Ohio Plan" in which students would be required to reimburse the state forthe entire cost of a college education. And Western's President Charles J. Flora doesn't like it one bit.Flora said Friday that the state currently provides about two-thirds of the per-student cost of education at Western, $1,350 per academic year compared to the annual tuition of S447. If the Ohio Plan was ineffect now, Western students would be required to pay the state a total of $7,188 for four years ofschooling. Under the Ohio Plan, students would "borrow" from the state while they were attendingcollege. After they had graduated and found jobs, they would be required to pay back the cost of theireducations. "There is a lot of enthusiasm among some legislators in this state for that plan," Flora said."I think that it is. appalling. It defeats the whole idea of what we need in higher education." Flora saidsuch proposals and the recent tuition hikes in Washington are making it "increasingly difficult for somepeople to receive a college education." "Increases in tuition fees are something to be avoided if at allpossible. My view is that we should increase the exposure to a post-high-school education as much aspossible. "Anything that works against this is CHARLES J. FLORA inadvisable. Increases in tuition fees greater than the students' ability to pay them works against this (exposure)." The announcement lastweek that tuition will go up another $16, to $169 per quarter for full-time students, should not have comeas a surprise, Flora said. The legislation enacted last year which raised tuition to $149 per quarter wasa two-stage increase to take place at yearly intervals for a two-year period. The state has committedWestern to the second stage of the increase next summer. Flora said he opposed the increases then,and still opposes them. Students should always pay a certain-percentage of the total cost, Flora said,but the state should defray that cost with state funds. If the state gets out of the business of financinginstitutions of higher education by adopting the Ohio Plan, then it should allow the institutions to governthemselves, he said. Flora pointed out, however, that the state currently provides $450 per student, perquarter in salaries and operating costs. That figure does not include the cost of buildings and academicfacilities provided by the state. The effects of recent tuition soaring already is being felt in Washingtoncolleges, Flora said. The number of applicants for admission recently has failed to increase as rapidly asit did in past years. Besides the higher cost of education, factors such as the new draft law, the state'spresent economic dilemma and the lack of summer jobs providing students with money for tuition hashad an effect on enrollment figures, he said. Sci-fi author to lecture A u t h o r - environmentalist FrankHerbert, who has written science fiction books, including the celebrated "Dune," will speak' on "ScienceFiction and Environmental Factions" at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Viking Union lounge. H e r b e r t isthe former Education Editor of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer and was a feature writer for 10 years on theSan Francisco Examiner. Herbert, who frequently lectures about ecology on campuses throughout theU.S., has told numerous colleges that he refuses to be put into a position of having to tell hisgrandchildren, "Sorry, there is no more world for you. We used it all up." Final fall enrollment estimatedat 9,600 As of last Friday, 9,401 full- and part-time students had registered and completely paid their fees for fall classes, according to the Registrar, William O'Neil. O'Neil estimated that after registration endstoday there will be some 9,600 full- and part-time students attending classes here. The state legislature,according to O'Neil, budgeted the school for 9,450 full-time students. "If we get close to the legislature'sbudgeted number of full-time students, we will be relatively pleased," he explained. Last year the schoolfound itself some 400 students short of the legislative budget and subsequently had to return severalhundred thousand dollars to the state coffers. This is the first year since the early 1960's which has notseen a substantial increase of enrollment, according to Eugene Omey, director of admissions.According to Omey, past years saw Western's enrollment climb rapidly. From an enrollment of 7,21 1 in1968 the student population rose to 8,634 in 1969 and by 1970 9,600 full- and part-time students wereenrolled. Omey and other school officials blame the leveling off of enrollment on various factors.Depressed economy and the new Evergreen State College being two. These factors and others have ledto Western's enrollment being nearly 1,000 students less than had been projected by a 1970 official state estimate. At that time Western's enrollment was projected at 10,550 for this year, 11,600 for 1972,12,500 for 1973, 13,350 for 1974 and 14,150 by 1975. lllfltl As registration at Western ends today itappears likely that budgeted for.

Some of the responses tothis simple question reveal a few interesting reasons for seeking an education in an institution of higherlearning.) Burke Lang, junior English major, considers college a place to learn: "My parents decided Ishould go. I like to think I'm learning here." Freshman ethnic studies and music major Anthony Joneswants to educate himself so he can ANTHONY JONES JOHN SERFOZO educate others. "I want toexpose things to black students, to relate courses to them," Jones said. Elementary education majorsabound at Western. Typical responses from several were: "I love kids" and "I really want to teach."Susan Schulte, senior, added, "Elementary kids need new teachers to work with the new ideas andteaching methods." SUSAN SCHULTE to work for. There is nothing else anyway. Why not? I don't know if it does any good or not. Maybe it will help; I don't know." When asked this troublesome question, Pete Putney, a junior ethnic studies major exclaimed, "Wow! To satisfy my parents. Wow! Yah, to satisfy my parents. That's about it." ---------- Western Front - 1971 October 5 - Page 4 ---------- Western Front Tuesday, October 5, 1971 Front Editorials. 7o comfort the afflicted and to afflict thecomforted' Close High Street Unless the City of Bellingham will cooperate with the college, it appearsthat Western has wasted $350,000 in constructing an elaborate bypass of High Street. After manydelays the West Campus Way bypass was completed winter quarter. Yet speeding autos, rumblingtrucks and even houses on wheels continue to use High Street. The rationale for constructing thebypass was that traffic could enter various college areas without driving through the heart of the campuson High Street. Indeed, it was planned that when the bypass was at long last finished, High Street would be closed. Yet the Bellingham Board of Public Works will not agree to the closure of High Street. In the meantime unaware drivers are trapped in traffic jams during the between-class rush, students are nearlyrun over by a few cars who evidently consider college students fair game and the traffic in generalcreates a noisy disturbance that detracts from the esthetic beauty of Western's campus. Western isimportant to Bellingham, important economically, educationally and socially. The college deserves some cooperation from the city. It is the biggest business in the city. We urge the Bellingham Board of Public Works to close High Street, not just for the sake of the college, but for the sake of the students andpersons associated with this college who live in and contribute to this Bellingham community. Trafficoutdid itself on High Street late last week as a large house completely filled High Street. Every day trafficjams extend up High Street as students attempt to cross the street.

You can almost hear the Duke saying, "Listen here, fella, thatthere, junk about Amchitka is just ahh bunch of kaa-rap." Knowing the Duke-not personally, ratherthrough his cinema image and numerous public utterances-I'm sure he didn't mean the blast itself wasjust a bunch of crap. He probably was talking about the crap being raised by various people about theblast is just an etc. etc. People such as Dr. Jeremy Stone, executive director of the Federation ofAmerican Scientists, who calls the test a "bureaucratic oversight; an experiment that has been waiting tobe cancelled." Or even nations like Canada which is raising its own form of Wayne crap. But then theU.S. owns a controlling interest of Canada Inc. and can cast the final vote on the country's future.(Anyway, nobody ever listened when the Canadians raised a stink over the fact our anti-ballistic-missilemissiles would be exploding over their country to save American skins.) After all, why should the Dukecare about Amchitka; he lives over 3,500 miles from the 42-mile long island in the Aleutian Island wildlifearea where the bomb is scheduled to go off sometime this month. Well, granted the island is a little closer to Bellingham, but the effects shouldn't be felt down here, unless Alaska slides off into the ocean or alarge earthquake is started. Now that is a possibility. How many times has a physjcs professor tried todrill in Newton's third law of motion about there being a reaction to every action, and with a bomb 250times more powerful than the one dropped on Hiroshima in 1945 going off a mile underground in a high-earthquake zone, you just never know. In Alaska there is a group called Alaska Mothers' CampaignAgainst Cannikin-Cannikin being the code name for the blast-who just don't believe the Duke when hesays it's just a bunch of crap. They have a lot at stake anyway. The woman in charge of the campaign inAnchorage has a daughter in Bellingham, and like her mother, Charlette Gisvold, is organizing a localcampaign against the test. Only she isn't having as much luck as her mother. Mrs. Gisvold is a formerAleutian native who admits being unnerved by speaking in front of audiences. Still she is willing to take adeep breath and tell her story, or rather plead her case, to anyone who will listen. She doesn't have tohold her breath often; not too many groups are willing to listen. Right now Mrs. Gisvold is pounding thepavement with a telegram-petition to President Nixon, asking him to cancel the test. If it is any indicationof her success with the local populous, I was the first person to sign it. Always had a soft touch for aworthy cause. Maybe people won't sign her petition because they are afraid their name will end up on anFBI list or something. However, I really doubt if Nixon or Hoover will take the time to even look at them.There are five basic reasons why Mrs. Gisvold and others are against the Amchitka blast. The mainreason is that it might trigger an earthquake. When the bomb goes off it will register approximately 7.0 on the Richter scale. The 1964 earthquake in Alaska measured 8.5 on the scale. There have been otheratomic tests on the island. One called Long Shot in October, 1965, was less than one megaton while this one will be five. It is considered too large for the Nevada test sites. Sponsoring the blast is the AtomicEnergy Commission, in cooperation with the Department of Defense. Both admit that possibility of anearthquake cannot be ruled out. There is also a possibility that radioactive materials could leak out. TheAEC rules this out, but if radioactive materials do leak out, it could ruin the fishing industry in Alaska. Astrong case against the test could be made on just the ability of the AEC to contain radioactive materialwithin its test site. Since 1963, there have been 17 leaks detected beyond the test sites' limits in theUnited States. Following one test last year, fallout from the explosion was detected in most of theWestern states. Also, the Amchitka blast will create a radioactive lake. The AEC figures the highlyradioactive water will remain for 1,000 years, but the funny thing about water is that it will follow a path ofleast resistance. In other words, it could be squeezed through rock faults to the Bering Sea, a scant4,500 feet away from the site. Mrs. Gisvold also points out that the warhead originally designed for thetest will not be used and she doesn't like the secretive manner in which the government is planning thetest with another warhead. When Alaska Gov. William Egan asked Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird ifthe test was for national security, Laird chose not to answer. Instead, though, he promised to answer inAugust, but no answer has been made public. Anyway, Mrs. Gisvold is asking for a few volunteers tohelp with her campaign and for people to sign the telegram.

QUESTION: What is the phenomenon which occurs to make the ridges of the vagina stiff when a woman becomes sexuallyexcited? Is this the same phenomenon which creates a stiffening of the nipples on the breasts of thewoman when she becomes excited? ANSWER: Yes. Responses to sexual excitement resulting inanatomic changes in both the man and woman (regardless of body part affected) is due to increasedblood flow with engorgement and/or increased muscle tone. These effects are involuntary. QUESTION: Ihave been getting large open sores on my breast. Also I have small dark bumps on the nipples andseveral long dark hairs growing in the area. Someone told me it could be breast cancer. Also, is thereany truth to the story that you can get morning sickness when you have your period? I always feel likeI'm going to throw up, and I have diarrhea and rectal bleeding just before. I never have cramps.ANSWER: Most breast cancers appear in the form of firm, painless lumps, often deep in the breast andnot freely movable. What you describe sounds more like a dermatitis or skin infection. Small darkbumps on the nipples and the appearance of hair in this region is part of the normal anatomy. Youshould see a physician for an examination and advice as how to treat the sores before they get worse.Many women have the exact same symptoms you describe along with their periods. That is, except forthe rectal bleeding. The overwhelming odds are that the rectal bleeding is due to hemorrhoids or someother condition in that area; there is a tiny chance that it may be due to endometriosis. Endometriosis is a rare developmental circumstance in which uterine tissue appears in unexpected places. When thishappens, these islands of uterine wall bleed periodically with the rest of the uterus as they are under thesame hormonal control. Thus, rectal bleeding would occur if you have such a condition in the anal area.The same physician who looks at your breasts should be able to help you with this problem too.QUESTION: My roommate has a very big problem. It seems as though his feet sweat quite a lot and as a result I nearly die when he takes his shoes off. What can he do to alleviate this problem? ANSWER:The answer to your problem fall;;. into a ^ very special category called "treatments they never told meabout in medical school." I'll proceed now to give you a logical explanation and suggest some remedies.I warn you, however, nothing may help! I had a roommate like that myself for three years. Your friendmight try wearing absorbent wool or cotton socks, washing his feet frequently and making sure they arethoroughly dry before shoeing up, using talcum powder on his feet and in his shoes and alternating pairsof shoes so they dry thoroughly. An underarm deodorant used on the feet may help, but caution shouldbe observed as irritations can result.

"I'm not impressed by it at all. I'm a Chicano and my ass has been on fire for years, fighting like a son-of-a-bitch for decent education for Chicanos,Blacks, Indians, Asians and Whites," said the 41-year-old Elizondo. There are a few problems however.As an educator, the paperwork of being an administrator bothers him. "I'm an educator and not interested in seeing that the wheels are well oiled," he said. His immediate problem is to get a grasp of thesituation on more than an intellectual level. "I want to get the feel of this college. The main problem rightnow is me, and I will be the problem until I know what's going on," he said. Another problem in being agood administrator is that Elizondo is a romantic. He finds it hard to suffer through the drudgery ofpaperwork. He wants to be with the students. The rather cramped quarters of the College of EthnicStudies makes being with the students a lot easier than most people would like, but Elizondo is happy."/ think its good that professors and students can run into each other often, even literally." "I think it'sgood that professors and students can run into each other often, even literally," he said. Enrollment atthe College of Ethnic Studies is expected to be between 130-140 students this year. Elizondo is happywith this figure because planning for the college had a relatively small group of students in mind. "Oursize is just right for offering personalized education. Large institutions tend to de-personalize thestudent. "We can offer the immediacy of personal. concern for the student, in a reciprocal learningenvironment," he added. It's a different kind of professor that can survive at the college. He's much morevulnerable than most because he can't shield himself with a "veil of academic pretense," according toElizondo. "These professors come here, at times with a cut in pay, because they all are curious; theyhave the type of curiosity that makes a man go." The students at the college will be allowed todetermine a large part of what they think is relevant education. "They can't write their own ticket,however," Elizondo said. "There have to be some checks." Education doesn't necessarily come best in a college environment. Elizondo would eventually like to see a program that would allow students to go off campus to seek, and perhaps record, learning experiences. "He might even go into the army," he said.The "umbilical cord" to the college wouldn't be cut entirely. The goal of the program would be to let astudent select a life-style that would suit him the most. "He could say to himself, 'Dammit, this is whatmakes me happy,'" Elizondo said. The race question is always evident at the college. The halls echowith thick accents and foreign languages. Elizondo admits that it's hard to work with people who aredifferent. "I find it hard to work with Blacks Indians and other minorities because I am a Chicano. Wehave something very beautiful." The development of racial pride, along with respect for other cultures, isthe primary goal of the College of Ethnic Studies, Elizondo said.

The newoperation which went into effect Friday, is headed by AS Housing Commissioner Craig Cole. Under thenew merger, the Housing Commission will assume the duties and monetary allocations of the oldStudent Employment Service (SES). The Housing Commission's title has also been changed to theAssociated Student Housing and Employment Commission. The latest action culminates severalattempts over the last three years to create an effective student employment service. AS President TodSundquist, who drafted the bill, said the old student employment service didn't always bring the jobseekers and potential employers together. Action by last spring's legislature also helped bring about thecombination of the two offices. Under the old structure the SES was funded $500 for a full-time employe.Last spring the legislature voted to cut the full-time employe from SES, creating a spare $500. Sundquist and Cole decided that the money might be incorporated better by combining the two offices. BrendaSunde, a former SES member, will be in charge of the new employment service. She will be aided bySean ' Reynolds, who recently joined the staff after working in off-campus student employment operations at Central YMCA College in Chicago.

Associated Student Vice-president Larry Diamond will discuss the potential andplanning of the organization, fashioned after consumer advocate Ralph Nader's raiders. The group's mainthrust will be to insure that broad areas of public interest, such as the environment, consumer protectionand the responsibilities of government officials, are represented in public policy decision making. Lawscholarships Western students interested in a law career have the chance to compete for twoscholarships being offered to Washington State students by the McGeorge School of Law at theUniversity of the Pacific, Sacramento, Calif. Representatives of the school will be on campus to interview prospective students from 3:15 to 5 pjn., Oct. 14, in the placement office on the first floor of Eden's HallSouth. The representatives will discuss preparation for law school, law school admission requirementsand curriculum and preparation for the practice of law. Gordon D. Schaber, dean of the law school, saidthat in addition to the regular scholarship programs offered by McGeorge, special scholarships forstudents attending schools in West Coast states have been established. While the McGeorge School ofLaw student body consists of students from all areas of the United States, the scholarship committeedesires to provide special scholarships for the State ot Washington. Therefore, Schaber said, twoscholarships will be available to Washington students.

As a combination of VISTAthe Peace Corps and other public-aid services, ACTION will place volunteers from Western into public and poverty assistance programs. According to GeorgeDrake, director of the program, student enthusiasm has been great. Over 100 qualified students haveapplied for the program. Another 25 students hopefully will be placed in the program in January.Volunteers in the program will receive college credit for courses they are enrolled in. Drake emphasizedthat students will have school work as well as their ACTION jobs. Classes will be taken on anindependent studies basis and will be structured toward the volunteers'needs. "ACTION is not justanother VISTA," Drake said. "It is a college program as well as a volunteer service program. As such, itwill become, hopefully, an integral part of Western." About 50 different agencies will take part in theACTION program. Placing students in agencies will provide manpower that normally would have beenlacking because of shortage of money, Drake said. Many of the agencies have been understaffed in thepast, and are financially unable to recruit more volunteers. Western's program is the largest UniversityYear forACTIONprogram in the United States with 85 students who will begin training Oct. 4. After threedays of general introduction, students will spend two weeks with their particular agency. Then studentswill regroup to discuss ideas, problems and plans of action. They will spend a full year on the job. Drakewill be assisted by Ralph Thompson, institutional coordinator, and Ruth Melone, assistant director. DavidRuhoff formerly of the University of Oregon VISTA training center, will assist with the fledgling program.Western graduate students Jim Nichols, Bruce Harris and David Miller also will serve as field staff.Selection for fall quarter trainees has been completed and a new selection for January trainees has beenstarted. Applicants must meet admission requirements for Western and have at least junior status.Drake and others are now establishing a rigorous evaluation process for ACTION. "If this program is notacademically justifiable, its presence at Western is not justifiable." he said. "We are willing to submit our methods to the scrutiny of the faculty and campus community for evaluation." Draft legislation dropsstudent deferments By KEM AKERS As a result of new draft legislation, there will no longer be draftdeferments for college bound students throughout the nation. The new draft bill, passed by a Senatemajority of 55 to 30 two weeks ago, put an end to all student deferments except those for medicalstudents. The new bill also provided for military pay raises and procedural changes within the SelectiveService System. Under the new system students who enrolled in college or trade schools this summer or fall will not be eligible for student deferments. However, those students already holding deferments willbe allowed to keep them so long as they make satisfactory progress toward graduation, or until theyreach the age 24, whichever comes first. Despite the student-deferment phase-out, Dr. Curtis W. Tarr,Selective Service Director, noted that few incoming freshman are likely to be inducted in the near future.In a press release from the Selective Service System Dr. Tarr said, "Of the 1,034,000 incoming freshmanmales estimated by the Office of Education, approximately 80 per cent are 18 years old and only 20 percent are 19 years of age or older. "The 18 year olds will receive their lottery numbers in 1972 and theywill not be subject to induction until 1973, when draft calls should be low." Dr. Tarr said that of the 19-year-old freshmen who received their lottery numbers Aug. 5 of this year and will be subject to inductionnext year, at least half of them should have high enough lottery numbers to preclude their induction. Ofthose remaining, approximately 50 per cent will be disqualified on "mental, moral or physical grounds."What this means," said Tarr, "is that a total of 50,000 men will be directly affected in 1972 by thestudent deferment phase-out and one-half of these, or 25,000, will probably not be. inducted because ofenlistments (or because of) participation in commissioning programs." Tarr said the college students willnot be drafted in the middle of a semester or term. Draft counselor says Draft law changes take effectslowly "If called while enrolled, they will be allowed to postpone their induction until the end of thesemester, or term," he said. "If in their last academic year, they will be able to postpone their inductionuntil after graduation." GI pay hike In addition to the phase-out of student deferments, the new bill alsoauthorized a $2.4 billion pay hike which will go into effect Oct. 1 unless the Cost of Living Council, whichoversees the current wage-price freeze, rules otherwise. According to a campus newsletter, this meansthat pay grade E-l average annual pay will be $4,872, compared to $3,165 at present. At the top of thescale, officer grade 0-6 will get $26,389 against $24,850 now. The Selective Service System itself alsowill undergo-some changes under the new law. The implementing of a new national quota system fordraft boards will mean that lottery numbers will apply to all men with the same birthdate regardless of thelocation of their draft boards. This means that some local boards will not be "safer" than others becauseof differences in population density and other factors. Objectors' duties Conscientious objectors will begiven two-year assignments to civilian service. This work, according to the Senate-House ConferenceCommittee, will "parallel in his experiences, to a reasonable extent, the experiences of the young manwho is inducted in his stead." The Mansfield amendment to require total United States troop withdrawalfrom Vietnam was approved in moained form as a "sense of Congress" title in the act. The hew versionnow calls for "the earliest practicable date" for the cessation of "all military operations of the UnitedStates in Indochina," and "a date certain for the prompt and orderly withdrawal of all United Statesmilitary forces subject to the release of all American prisoners of war held by the Government of NorthVietnam . . . and an accounting for all Americans missing in action." "When the old draft law expired inJune of this year, the local draft board in Seattle had reached number 125," Nuse said. "With the draftresumed now, they will almost certainly reach 140, and possibly 150 by the end of the year. "Studentswho have a II-S deferment would be wise to maintain them because if they lose their II-S, there is a goodchance that it won't be renewed by their local draft board." Any students who are in need of specificinformation concerning the draft can talk to Nuse between 9 a.m. and noon in room 218 in the VikingUnion. His telephone number is 676-3732. It may be as long as six months before new changes in theSelective Service System are implemented in local draft boards, according to Dick Nuse, Western'sSelective Service counselor. Nuse said even though the law has been changed, "none of the local stateboards know how they will be affected as yet." What this means is that it may be some time before menof the same birthdate will be called at the same time. Therefore, depending upon the quotas of localboards, men with the same lottery numbers might be called earlier at some boards than at others. Thisinequity is one of the reforms that the new draft bill sought to remove,and eventually will. . . . . . . , . . . i.\' s Â» V V.Â» .v'.VV.OW v \ V.i'.v.s \' v v \' \ \' NEED EXTRA CASH?

The Viks shook off two viciousWildcat ground attacks in the first quarter that netted Central only a field goal in winning their secondEvco game. Western is now 2-0 in the league, 2-1 on the year. The loss, Central's first in league play,ran the defending champs record to 0-3, all games played at home. Tom Wigg netted 132 yards on theground in 24 carries, while substitute Steve Skogmo packed the ball for 113 yards in 18 attempts.Skogmo entered the contest in the first period after starter Jody Miller twisted a knee on his secondcarry. Miller will undergo x-rays to determine the extend of the injury. Central started the game as ifthey were going to run the Vikings right' off of Tomlinson Field. Running right up the middle, the 'Catstraveled from their own 15 to the Western 31 in eight plays. Fullback R. J. Williams carried six times for35 yards in that assault. Then, in his first pass attempt, last year's All-Evco quarterback Jeff Short threw right into the waiting arms of Viking defensive back Tim Mead. Western quarterback G l e n n Hadlandthen reciprocated by throwing his second pass for an interception. Two series later, the Wildcats,continuing to penetrate the Big Blue line, marched to the Western 14, where the Viks held and forcedCraig Meldahl to kick a 21-yard field goal. Western came back in the second period to have LanceWilson try a 37-yard three pointer, which fell just short of the cross bar after being partially blocked.Western's first score came with 1:18 left in the first half on a three yard burst up the middle by Wigg.The Viks blitzed 96 yards in five plays, the highlight being Hadland's 80-yard pass play to Steve Jasmer.Hadland threw from his own end zone and Jasmer had beaten everyone, only to be run down on theCentral 15 by Pat Maki. Wilson's conversion attempt was blocked after holder Fred Worthing bobbledthe snap from center. The Viks then recovered a Cal Allen fumble on the Central 24 and six plays later,Wilson booted a 24-yard field goal with eight seconds left in the half, giving the Vikings a 9-3 lead. In the third quarter, with Central keying on Wigg, Skogmo rolled up his yardage. Western recovered aWilliams fumble on the Central 36, and marched in for the score in four plays, the capper being a nineyard Hadland to Wigg aerial for the six. Wilson's kick with 9:38 left in the period gave the Blue a 16-3edge. Taking the ensuing kick-off, Central drove to the Vik 40 on short passes by Short, before beingstopped. Greg Emery faked a punt on fourth down and passed incomplete to John LaForce. Westerntook over and drove 60 yards in eight plays for their final TD. Wigg scored his third touchdown of theafternoon on a five yard gallop up the middle. Key plays of that drive were runs of 17 and 13 yards byWigg and Skogmo, respectively, and a third and fourteen pass from Hadland to Cecil Simms, good for16 yards and a first down at the five. HEADED FOR a perfect three point landing, Western's Tom Wigg(44) scores the first of his three touchdowns in the Viks' 23-15 win over Central, Saturday in Ellensburg.Wigg picked up 132 yards rushing in the game, Western's second Evco win against no defeats. Photo By JIM THOMSON Central came back by marching 80 yards in nine plays with Short passing eight yardsto Allen for the score on the second play of the final quarter. Meldahl's kick attempt was wide left andthe score remained 23-9, Western. Central's final tally came with 5:90 left on a three yard run byWilliams over right guard. Short, attempting a two-point conversion, passed incomplete. The Wildcat'sfinal drive sputtered when Short had passes blocked or broken up by Viking defenders Ivor Hoglund, Dan Wakefield, Kevin Halliburton and Karl Rye. The Vikings proceed to run out the clock for the hard fought,precious win in Evco standings. For Central, Williams finished with 106 yards in 27 carries and Shortcompleted 20 of 37 for 230 yards with one interception.

Coach Dick Bowman is uncertain about the Viks' chances for early success, but feelswhen the end of the season rolls around, his harriers will be among the Evergreen Conference's best."Eastern Washington has to be considered the best," Bowman said. "But I think that we'll be right inthere by the end of season. We have some kids who should be able to do real well." Much of Bowman'sreasoning for a slow start The Sporting Word centers around minor illnesses among the team membersand one very serious injury. Fred New, returning junior, sustained a fractured skull when he fell from abicycle going 40 m.p.h. The Vikings two returning Iettermen, Paul Scovel and Tim Tubbs, will be joinedby Steve Lippitt, Mike Shaw and, hopefully, New. All of these men ran last year. Newcomers to Western include freshmen Martin Jacobi, Clifford Chaffee, Paul Fountain, Bruce Carrick, William Rathoon and Pat Rathoon. Win one for the you-know-whats By KENT SHERWOOD Sports Editor Right up there among the names of all those great teams such as the Yankees, Orioles, Colts, Bucks, Canadians and Celtics,all of which exude the aura of success, superiority and power, you may now add such romantic andinventive titles as the Termites, Canucks, Beaver Shots, and Pharts. The latter are not, admittedly,nationally known teams and may even present casual local sports observers with the problem ofmatching the name with the team's particular sport. They are just a few of the teams which compete inWestern s intramural program, which offers a year 'round menu of sports and competition, both on a team and on an individual basis. Ken Lynch, student director of intramural sports, heads an office which tries,usually successfully, to let each male student who, for either lack of ability or incentive, does not wish toturn out for a varsity sport. Now, before Women's Lib backers think they have a new cause to rallyaround, Lynch plans to offer more woman and co-ed competition. "Last year we had pretty good success at our co-ed volleyball program," Ken said. "We should be able to expand it to some other areas thisyear." Popularity of the intramural program is proven by the fact that last year's flag football competitiondrew some 40 teams which sloshed around in the mud and slime trying to put some pretty odd shapedfootballs into an endzone, not always easily defined on the field. Intramural teams, which generally mustprovide their own equipment, often take their contests with as much, and sometimes more, enthusiasmas varsity competitors. The referees are still the no-good doers and the opposition is still that blankity-blank-blank bunch of you-know-whats. Lynch plans to offer intramural activities in all of last year ssports: flag football, basketball, wrestling, weight lifting, Softball, track, tennis and volleyball. Otherhopeful additions to the program include co-ed volleyball and tennis, and possibly handball. Western'snew handball courts in Carver Gym soon could become yet another domain for Western's sometimesathletes. . "I'm going to watch and see how much the new courts are being used," Ken commented. "Ifthere isn't a great rush for them, then maybe we'll run an intramural tournament in the spring. "Thebiggest problem is often that there are so many teams that very little actual competition can take place,"Lynch said. Last year, basketball drew 128 teams. Even when games took place simultaneously on fourcourts, four hours each night, four days a week, each team was able to play only six contest before thetournaments. But even with all those teams, and all those people, Lynch intends to keep intramurals aplace for the would-be John Brodies or Jerry Wests or Willie Mayses. And with all those teams, it'll beinteresting to see if anyone can come up with an original nickname. Vik ruggers shut-out UBC Western's two rugby clubs have gotten off to a fast start in their new season, with wins Saturday over twoCanadian clubs. The first team downed a highly rated team from the University of British Columbia, 12-0, while the Seconds drubbed Delta of Vancouver, 30-3. For the Firsts, Wayne Means, a scrummerrecently converted from a back, and Larry Willman scored in the first half. Means blocked a UBC kickand scored while Willman scored from twenty yards out. gt; Roy Fiddick from three yards in thesecond half completed Western's scoring. Jerry Jensen narrowly missed all three conversion attempts.In the Seconds scoring spree over Delta, Craig Stoner and Gary Agarpao each scored twice for the Viks. Phil Jack, a new addition from New Zealand also scored twice and made one conversion kick. ChuckAnderson made two other conversions for Western. Both squads are now 2-0 for the year, following winsover Langley last week. The Firsts won 8-4 and the Seconds won 7-0. Western's teams will compete inthe Meraloma Tournament this weekend in Vancouver, B.C. Two runners Bowman is especially lookingto are freshmen Mike Fuller of Oak Harbor and Pat Lamereoux from Seattle's Blanchet High School.Western's scheduled opener with Puget Sound was forfeited to the Viks Saturday when UPS failed toshow. Bowman took advantage of situation and ran his troops over the 5.2 mile course at Cornwall Park. Shaw paced the Blue harriers with a 26:50.7 clocking. Western will again attempt to run against UPSthis Saturday in Burnaby, B.C., along with Simon Fraser. IM football blanks due Entry blanks forintramural flag football will be due at 3:30 p.m. Thursday in the intramural office in Carver Gym 109 at acaptain's meeting for interested individuals.

There will be an all-college meeting at 3 p.m. today in the VUlounge to discuss this resolution. Depending on student reaction at the meeting, the resolution will besubmitted to the Legislature at 4 p.m. If the Legislature passes the resolution, the strike will begintomorrow and continue through Friday. The Cabinet also asked that Friday be named a "Day ofMourning" to express feelings for troops killed in Cambodia since the U.S. entered, and for the fourstudents killed during violence at Kent State University resolution will probably be submitted tonight atthe AS Convention asking that the Convention be postponed until next week. Hjeresen said that most of the prospective candidates are in agreement, and have pledged their political machine to present acommunity crisis teach-in during the three day strike. Several departments have agreed to cancel theirclasses, Hjeresen said. Candidates for AS President, Vice-President and Legislature will be nominatedas the 3-day spring nominating convention opens at 6 p.m. tonight in the VU lounge. Faculty and staffat Western will be represented by delegation along with students for the first t i m e , Steve Plane ic ,newly-appointed elections board chairman, said last week. According to the spring convention rules,each dorm will be allowed one delegate for every 20 residents, and one additional delegate for anyremaining odd number of residents over 10. Each college-approved house will be allowed one delegatefor every 20 persons living off-campus and one additional for any remaining odd number over 10.Delegates representing on-campus living groups have been elected rather than appointed, as in the past, to insure "a fair representation from each dorm," Plancic said. Off-campus delegations are filled fromlists of interested students who signed up. All delegates representing faculty and staff were appointedby the respective office heads and department chairmen, Plancic said. Tonight's business will bedevoted mainly to voting on the rules of the convention, introducing bills and nominating presidential,vice-presidential and legislator candidates. The chairman of each delegation will nominate candidatesrequested by his delegation. According to convention rules, nominated candidates will be selected bysecret ballot, on the last night of the convention. A vote will be taken for all positions, unless there is-only yesterday. D e n n y H j e r e s e n , tllC administrative assistant to the AS president, said that awestern front one person nominated for the position. The ten candidates receiving the most votes forLegislature will be qualified for the general election ballot, with the runners-up being designated asalternates. The top three nomineees each for president and vice-president will be put on the generalballot, Plancic said. No motions or bills involving finances may be submitted, although resolutionsasking the AS Legislature to pass a financial bill will be considered. Bills will be divided into fourcategories for caucusing, he said. The categories are student welfare, responsible leadership, fiscalmanagement and bookstore. All candidates selected at the convention will be eligible to run in acollege-wide election to be held May 21. Vol. LXI1 no. 31 Western Washington State College Bellingham, Washington 98225 Tuesday, May 5, 1970 10c Legislature denies dorm poll demand Jackie LawsonWestern Front staff Despite a protest by Interhall Council (IHC) the AS Legislature failed to reconsiderBill No. 100 last Tuesday which removed voting booths from dormitories. Greg Gustafson, Ridge wayBeta president, presented the protest which stated, "Be it resolved that IHC demand to AS Legislaturethat it immediately withdraw Bill No. 100 and re-establish its polling places in dormitories." It wasdiscussed that off-campus students feel alienated and resentful, and will experience difficulty in votingbecause of a lack of voting booths situated off-campus. Gustafson outlined the source of the problem asnot enough booths for off-campus students and stated that the product of the problem is adisproportionate amount of booths for on-campus students. "It isn't necessary to cut down theamount of booths on campus, just supply more booths off campus, Gustafson said. He attacked theaction taken by the legislature as "strictly negative," and said that due to the legislature's refusal towithdraw Bill No. 100, IHC will take immediate action to withhold the $18 activities fee that goes toAssociated Students. Dean of Students C.W. McDonald responded to Gustafson by saying that it ispossible, in a budgeting situation, to withhold funds of any agency on campus, but it must be done bylegal authorities such as the president of the college or the Board of Trustees.

So begins the manifesto of People Against Repression (PAR). PAR evolved from the lastMoritorium committee meeting where it was decided that a different kind of organization was needed.There will be an open meeting at 3 p.m. today in VU 8. A literature and information table will be in theVU plaza from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. today with a signatory declaration for support. The combined ideas ofthe organizing committee that met last week were incorporated into the manifesto. The first issue in the manifesto is the sentencing of Black Panther chairman, Bobby Seale and the "government's attempts to murder or jail all Black Panthers." Another aim is to fight against the government institution of "thoughtcrime" t h r o u g h the use of unconstitutional conspiracy laws. Another point agreed upon was to fightagainst the attempt t o r e p r e s s ' ' O u r '' cultureâ€”banning festivals, jailing people for smoking thewrong kind of weed. "We will fight all unjust lawsâ€”dope laws, laws governing m o r a l i t y , lawsallowing preventive detention, no-knock laws, i.e., the means the government uses to keep us down,"reads part of the manifesto. Eliminating the repression of all peopleâ€”women, Third World people,Indians, homosexuals, freaks, studentsâ€”anyone who refuses to accept the restrictive mold they areplaced in, was designated as another directive for PAR. The manifesto wound up by declaring that PARwould fight American fascism led by Vice President Agnew and General Mitchell, who are responsiblefor the increased tempo of repression, they believe. "We are the People Against Repressionâ€”and weare preparing to fight," ended the manifesto. Warm Spring weather is attracting hundreds of collegestudents to Mount Baker's snowy slopes.

He had previously introducedan amendment to the original bill which stated that the polling places should be moved from the dormsinto academic buildings making them easily accessible to all students. Legislator Jim Stevens saidthere was a greater voter turnout when the polling places were in the dorms. Legislator Bert Halprin said that prior to last term there were no voting booths in the dorms and everyone felt the elections were fair.Last term when the booths were replaced in the forms people felt it was a "weighted" election becauseon and off-campus students did not have an equal opportunity to vote. The resolution reads that votingbooths would be placed in the Viking Union lounge, coffee shop, and plaza, the library, Red Square,Saga dining areas and all academic buildings.

BOOKS BY THE POUND MAY 5th thru 19th Special Selection ofPaperbacks,Hardbound, Old EditionsTexts ONLY 32 0 LB STUDENTS .(fyf STORE NO STORS MORECONVENIENT Clarifies AS, Front dilemma by Greg Baker, AS President, and Bob Burnett, editor-in-chief The recent controversy concerning the Western Front has everyone, participants and spectators,confused. This is an attempt to clarify how it started, how it has progressed and where it is going. Itstarted with the selection of Bob Burnett as Spring quarter editor. Although the voting was done by secretballot, the word was passed that the student members of the Committee on Student Publications had not voted for Burnett. This resulted in complaints that Burnett was a faculty sponsored, status quo editor.As a result, the AS Cabinet submitted Bill No. 95 to the AS Legislature and it was passed. This billdeclared that the editorship of the Western Front was not validly filled and that the Legislature wouldappoint an interim editor to take over the position. The next step was Bill No. 101. This bill was introduced by AS President Greg Baker and declared the intent of the Legislature to establish another studentnewspaper independent from the AS Government, faculty, administration and the journalism program. Itcalled for the establishment of an interim publications board^ The problems with Bill No. 101 are: -The AS Legislature does not have the authority to establish or dissolve a student publication. -Although theLegislature normally controls its budget within the guidelines established by state law, the collegeadministration has indicated that it will exercise its prerogative to veto the action of the studentLegislature concerning the Front funds. Objections were raised against the policies concerning theselection of the editor, the make-up of the publications committee and attachments to an academicprogram. Bill No. 102 was introduced. This bill proposes changes in publications policy and structure and calls for the establishment of a "Publications Council" to replace the current Committee on StudentPublications. The Publications Council, under Bill 102, is to have nine members nominated at the SpringQuarter Convention. The major objection by journalism instructors and members of the Front staff is thatthe members of the Publications Council will be politically selected. They feel that it would be possible fora group of students (with either the AS Government, administration or journalism philosophies) tonominate a slate of people to unfairly stack the ballot in order to dominate the board. in view of the factthat several other policy revisions arc forthcoming, and the Committee on Student Publications is finallygoing to act, the Legislature unanimously decided to send Bill 102 back to committee for furtherconsideration until today's meeting. The Committee on Student Publications will meet at noon tomorrowto decide on their proposed policy revisions. Another Legislature objection to the current publicationspolicy is that under that policy, the newspaper advisor "shall prevail" over the student editor wheneverthere is a difference of opinion. Burnett said that he has never experienced any censure or domination bythe advisor over any differences of opinion, but that under the current policy, the possibility for such anexperience does exist. A third objection is that the Legislature feels the Front is too closely bound to the journalism program. The Legislature feels that the creation of a journalism major, recently passed by theAcademic Council, will increase the ties between the student newspaper and the journalism program.The journalism instructor's role in teaching the newspaper staff course is to critique each issue of thepaper after it has been circulated and evaluate staff stories after they have been published. He alsoserves as a technical advisor to the editor. Staff members do not have to take credit or be graded for their work if they don't want to. Presently, most do. Anyone can contribute or report for the paper, but most ofthe work is done by the staff. Under the existing policy, the editor-in-chief must "appoint paid membersof his editorial staff from those enrolled in journalism courses." This is one of the areas currently underrevision. Many AS Legislators and Cabinet members believe that the newspaper has become anacademic laboratory and, for this reason, should not be funded by student fee money. This area mayrequire a great deal of debate before a solution suitable to everyone can be reached. The Legislature feels that the changes which the Committee on Student Publications has been working on are long overdue.The present Committee on Student Publications consists of five members appointed by the collegepresident and three members appointed by the AS Legislature. A subcommittee consisting of twostudent representatives and one administrator has been working on a proposal to change the Committee's structure since November. They have submitted only "preliminary thoughts" concerning those changes.This controversy may be viewed as a part in a larger question: Just how much control does ASGovernment have in student affairs-especially those dealing with the student fee money allocated to it by(he state government? The one remaining fact, after all others have been debated, is that the Board ofTrustees will have the final say. ---------- Western Front - 1970 May 5 - Page 3 ---------- i uusuuy, iway j , i a /U VVUSUSI II I I U I IL Committee fails lottery proposal The parking committeeturned down a proposal last week for a lottery system to determine who would park where. Theproposed system would include faculty, staff and students so that everyone would be treated on anequal basis. All handicapped persons and those with a particular need would be assigned to a lot before the lottery was held. The committee took no action on a proposal that a lottery system be held only forfaculty and staff. Students would buy their permits on a first-come, first-serve basis. Some committeemembers believed that resident students should be sold permits for specially designated lots, notnecessarily near their hall, because these students do not have to drive to school. Several members said that they wished students would attend the meetings so that they could get some student ideas intothe discussion. They said that there is not much time left before they have to make a decisionconcerning next year's parking permit sales. The committee is holding a special meeting at 1 p.m. today in College Hall.

Peterson, supervisor of the campus safety and security department, said last week.Drivers who continue to park without paying the 25 cent fee will no longer find a small reminder envelopethat the fee should be paid. Standard red and white campus violation warnings will be placed under thewindshield wiper, and after two warnings the cars will be impounded, Peterson said. "We've been givingviolators a chance to pay but they just ignore them, and I'm sure everyone can read the signsdesignating the lots." Peterson's department now has 70 visitor parking stalls available around campusduring the day, and 202 stalls at night. However, with the by-pass road now under construction visitingareas will be cut to 20 daytime, and 152 nighttime stalls. The only people affected by the new systemwill be the "flagrant violators" who continue to park in the lots. Some people can get the violationwarnings and never get another, but the ones that will complain are the ones who never pay attention, he added. Students continue to park in the visitor areas and it's not because of a lack of parking spacesavailable on campus. "Personally I think the parking permit fees are too high but the parking system oncampus must be self-sustaining. "We get no aid from the state and since the problem concerns a stateinstitution we should go to the state legislature and ask for money." No matter how much the parkingcosts, or where the space is available, students who continue to park against campus regulations aregoing to have their cars ticketed and towed, Peterson said.

Peterson read off a list of areas where parking permit spaces were waiting to be taken. With two lots combined there were 157 vacancies. Eighty-six of the stalls are$4 parking permit type at Indian and Laurel Streets. Along with other groups on campus he forsees thatthe only thing that can be done in the future is to create a shuttle system, "but funding is the secret tothe whole parking problem," Peterson added.

Under state law, the initiative measure requires 101,229 validvoters' signatures to be placed on the ballot. The measure would require a-minimum deposit of five cents on all beer and pop containers, Keller said. The move stemmed from the attempts to check the littering of Sehome Hill by a group of Fairhaven students who call themselves the Sehome Hill ImprovementTroop.

The present out-moded system isspringing major leaks left and right. The student leadership, at least, is no longer content withwrapping rags around the problems. The administration, faculty and staff probably heartily agree. Whilethe campus leadership failed to collectively support an alternative government proposal at a humanrelations seminar on Orcas Island last weekend, the concern for change was nevertheless heavy in theair. After many long months of research, the Daugert Committee proposal for an all-college senate isfinally up for review by the AS Legislature, the Faculty Council and the Staff-Employees Council. Untillast weekend it looked as it the Daugert plan was going to be rejected by all factions. This week, though, there is growing optimism in some camps that the all-college senate idea may get the green lightbefore the beginning of Fall quarter. Some factions which were previously displeased with the inequitiesof the Daugert Committee plan are beginning to realize that the problems which face this community cannot wait for a perfect plan. There is no reason why the Daugert proposal cannot be implementedand then modified to correct discrepancies as they arise. We chorus a recommendation that thiscollege suspends classes one day this month for an all-college moratorium on the government dilemma.Something must be done. Now. John Stolpe Armstrong case raises many questions The recent hassleover the refusal of the music department to rehire Black jazz musician Walter Zuber Armstrong raisesmany questions that should be considered by every Western student, faculty member and administrator. Armstrong is, beyond any doubt, the finest musician on Western's campus. Even music departmentchairman Philip Ager and former chairman Charles North agreed that Zuber's "dedication andseriousness" to music must be commended. Armstrong claimed that Ager and other music departmentmembers were jealous of his talent. It seems that Western's music department is hopelesslybackward when it can't afford to keep its finest musician in residence. It also is disappointing to learnthat no rock, blues or country western courses are offered in Western's music department. Ager blamedthe lack of relevant curriculum and Armstrong's dismissal on the music department's small budget. Ifthis is true, the time has come to ask President Charles Flora to increase funds to the musicdepartment. It is our conclusion that many students every year refuse to attend Western or refuse tomajor in. music because of the department's antiquated curriculum. We agree with Ager when he says a traditional background in music is necessary, but we also feel that a knowledge of all styles of musicis necessary today, in these times of continuous social change. It seems insane to force all musicmajors to take eight music theory classes, and when they graduate they may not know anything moreabout modern music forms than, when they started college. Another question caused by Armstrong'sdismissal is whether it is beneficial to hire or rehire instructors without BA degrees or PhD's. It is ouropinion that anyone with persistence and money can eventually attain these valued but irrelevantpieces of paper. A third question is whether teachers should be hired because of their race. We feel thatthere should be several members from minority groups represented in each department, but that eachinstructor should be hired or rehired because of his qualifications. The most important question raised by Armstrong's dismissal is how much control students have over the hiring and rehiring of instructors.Students played a major role in the decision to not rehire Armstrong, according to Ager. Approximatelyhalf (20,741) of Armstrong's students evaluated him on the standard student forms. If student opinionis so important in hiring and rehiring practices, perhaps students should be more careful in filling outthe forms. The forms themselves, which are currently being revised by the testing center, should alsobe carefully evaluated. One final question raised by the disappointing decision created by the musicdepartment is: should faculty members be required to play the roles of conservatives until they reach thesafety of tenure? The tenure system is archaic, but Western continues to honor it. It provides a senseof security for our older, sometimes fading faculty members, while it harasses the comfort of those,usually younger instructors (the ones with the fresh ideas and enthusiasm), who have not yet slid intothe safe home-base of tenure. Is this the type of system that should be continued? These are some ofthe questions Western-ites should be asking themselves and answering. After talking to Armstrong, onerealizes that wherever he goes, whatever he does with his music, he will succeed. But, the next timeyou pick up an evaluation form, think about whether you want to see that person around next year. Hemight not be a Walter Zuber Armstrong. Forrest Anderson guest commentary Liberal arts degree needed Steve Cooper contributor What this college needs is a liberal arts degree. It is presently held thateducation is the goal of colleges and the degree, which one receives, symbolizes four years of studyingand learning. However the degree awarded does not, in many instances, reflect the quality it implies.This appraisal contrasts drastically with the generally held opinion of what liberal arts actually is. Weconfront a system which proposes to educate us in the field of liberal arts, yet we end up majoring in anarea which, chances are, may not be the field we eventually enter into after college. It is becomingincreasingly apparent that, except in instances where specialization is needed for advancement orunderstanding, most any major is acceptable for many job placements. Contemplate the future of arecently graduated political science major as he begins his first day of work as a management trainee fora department store. It appears that for the student uninterested in teacher education or specialized fields, such as natural science, the major-minor concept often fails to prepare him for future work. I feel wemust acknowledge this fact and in doing so, our education (for education's sake) will become moremeaningful. Therefore, our system, through the major-minor requirements conceptâ€”while trying toproduce a high quality liberal arts education as its endâ€”actually embraces rigidity in emphasizingspecific concentrations. We can see that while the system feels it is promoting the liberal arts education as its end result, it is actually neglecting to achieve this goal by emphasizing the specialized degree asits ends. Your vote is your own Lyn Watts feature editor The AS Spring Convention will begin tonightwith the main purpose appearing to be the nomination for the AS offices of 1970. Actually all that remains is the formality of the tabulation of votes. I find as extremely deplorable the actions of certain candidatesand delegation chairmen. These candidates have gone around to the already-selected chairmenrequesting the votes of the entire delegation. And the chairmen have committed all their delegates' votesto one candidate, regardless of which candidates the individual delegates want. I believe that any member of any delegation is on that delegation because he wishes an INDIVIDUAL voice AND vote, not one thathas already been decided for him. I hope that the delegates will use this vote, and vote as they wish andbelieve, regardless of the pressure of the delegation chairman on them.

It is my feeling, however, that on the whole everyone involved has tried to act in a sincere and thoughtful manner. As a member of the AS Legislature, though, I would like to make one thing clearâ€”I do NOT want control of a student newspaper (whether it be the Western Front or not). However, I dofeel that the student newspaper should not serve as an academic laboratory (specifically for ajournalism major). U n d e r the pr-esent publications policy and with the effect of the recently approvedjournalism major, the Front is becoming just such a laboratory. I have nothing against this except thatthe Associated Students are paying $18,000 per year for this paper and in effect are subsidizing anacademic department. If the journalism program wants to put out a paper they should fund it the wayany other academic department funds itself, NOT through AS funds. In closing, I would like to say thatthis is my personal view and that I feel my actions in this matter, and I hope those of the rest of theboard, have been based on a sincere desire to 1) quickly and effectively reform the Publications Boardand its policy and 2) give the students of Western a newspaper that is free from administration, f a c u lt y AND student government control.

Itis my expressed opinion that the actions of these students was just and that they were exercising theirright to lobby. I doubt, however, that the charge of being irresponsible in this action could honestly belevied at the Legislature for the following reasons: 1. Moving the polling places to the academic buildingswas only assumed to reduce voter turnout, since this process has not been tried. 2. Large turnouts donot necessarily constitute a fair or democratic election. 3. The AS Legislature represents all studentsand not just one faction. 4. Alternatives had been investigated (i.e., polling places in the dorms andacademic buildings and voter by mail for off-campus students); however, these were found not to befeasible. There has been one deficiency in this action. The bill will cause all the booths to be located onlower campus with the exception of one.

I find your paper fair and very thought provoking. From the articles by Baker and friends it takesno mental genius to figure out that they are not representative of the total college population. Being agood demagogue, Baker realizes the importance of the news media to further his political base andpersonal views. Maybe Baker and Doan thought you'd play their games.

Well, I surely don't want to beat thistopic to death as I'm sure you've considered all motives and reasons involved. I just wish you luck in your fight to maintain a free press and I hope this issue wakes up some of Western's Silent Majority to startparticipating more in student government or watch it continually degrade itself to the point of extinction.Joe Henry 0108644 USMCR D Co. ist.

Protestors defied a council ruling during last month's peace march when about 500 persons usedHolly Street enroute from the college down to an anti-war rally at the Federal Building. If the decision ismade not to prefer charges Klein is unsure over what will happen if the same thing ever comes up in thefuture. Klein also commented on the response of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to the police handling of the march. "The ACLU is quick to pat someone on the back when something is done to help them, but they are quick to violate the law. They encourage everyone to get on the bandwagon. "Fromthe aspects involved I could have tried to stop them, and I wonder what the ACLU's reaction would havebeen then," Klein added. One of the greatest types of pollution affecting our lakes today is phosphatepollution, according to University of Toronto study. Phosphates come from human waste, industrialeffluents, agricultural runoff and detergents. The largest single source is detergents. Phosphates softenwaterr and suspend dirt particlesâ€”but they also stimulate massive growths of algae and waterweeds.Decaying algae removes oxygen from the water and desirable fish species die from lack of oxygen. P ol l u t i o n Probe, an independent group, analyzed the phosphate content of cleaning agents. The resultfor each product was sent to the manufacturer for comment.

A reasonablealternative has been found, it's NTA (nitrilotriacetate). NTA has replaced a large amount of thephosphates in certain products now sold in Sweden. Some of the detergents with high per centphosphate content are Calgon 75.5, Amway Trizyme 52.5, Cheer and Oxydol 44.5 and Tide XK 43.5.Ones with a lower per cent of phospates are Ivory Snow, Lux and Downy less than 1.0.

Do your part in keeping phosphates low, check the phosphatecontent of the soap you buy, and remember, the term "biodegradable" on a detergent box has nothing to do with phosphate content. All detergents are biodegradable. National Moratorium Committee disbands The national Vietnam Moratorium Committee, deep in debt, disbanded last week and called for a newdirection and focus for anti-war activities in the nation. A committee newsletter explained that despitenearly one million persons having demonstrated their opposition to the expanding war in SoutheastAsia, Moratorium leaders feel there is little prospect of immediate change in the administration'spolicies. "Our maximum effectiveness has been reached," the committee said. "We as an institution nolonger fill the endl for which we came together." Local grassroots committees and offices will continue to operate as usual. National Moratorium coordinators said that they intended to stay with the peacemovement in different capacities. Sam Brown and David Hawk will be working on peace concerts andother fund-raising projects to pay the committee's enormous debts. Coordinator Dave Mixner is movingto Denver to help with local organizing, while Marge Sklencar remains to organize local groups in theEast. "We know that on the most important levelâ€”the community levelâ€”the anti-war organizing willcontinue, coalitions will be maintained and education projects will be carried out," the committee said.Memorable draft quotes "The draft is far more typical of totalitarian nations than of democratic nations.The theory behind it leads directly to totalitarianism. It is absolutely opposed to the principles of individual liberty which have always been considered a part of American democracy." -Robert'i" t, 1940 "Everyyoung man . . . knows the money that could be saved, the new efficiency that could result from avolunteer system which calls on young men not to endure two years in the service because they have to,but to choose it for a longer period of time because it offers advantages that seem to them appealing."â€”Adlai Stevenson, 1956 "The most fundamental right of man is the right to his life. The use of forceagainst that right-as in the draft law-is clearly wrong. It would also be wrong to assume that free men have to be forced to fight for their country." -Barry Goldwater, 1967 "I say it's time we took a new look at thedraft-at the question of permanent conscription in a free society. If we find we can reasonably meet ourpeacetime manpower needs by other means, then we should prepare for the day when the draft can bephased out of American life." -Richard Nixon, 1968 "No one can predict with precision whether or not orprecisely when we can end conscription. I expect that it will be necessary for the next congress toextend this authority." -President Richard Nixon 1970 WESTERN WASHINGTON STA TE COLLEGEART FILM SERIES "HOLLYWOOD COMEDY AND CAAir presents: Fantastic Geometric Patterns ofGorgeous Girls- Preposterous Sets Heaped with Gorgeous Girls- Revolving Platforms Stacked withGorgeous Girls.

Her first duty was coordinating the anti-Utter campaign last Saturday along with RogerNelson, OCIC vice-president and chairman of the clean-up. Miss Clark will work as an apprentice toPete White, retiring OCIC president, for the remainder of the quarter. "You're it: I quit!" White jokinglysaid when he heard the results of the election. " I 'd tike to see larger attendance at meetings sinceOCIC represnts ail off-campus students." Miss Clark said. OCIC sponsored a dating game Fail quarter, a folk festival Winter quarter and will sponsor a motorcycle scramble on Friday, May 22 for the' Multi-Arts festival.

T h r e e dark-skinned, white-robed musicians sat cross-legged on a wooden platform covered with an Indian rug. Incense burned and filled the large room with apleasant scent, as Shankar's bare foot tapped while he played. He was accompanied by Alia Rakha,playing the Tabla, Indian's most popular two-piece drum, and Kamala Chakravarty on the tamboura, astringed drone instrument which provides a hypnotic background for the sitar. Shankar's ragas tended to lay the audience back into a state of tranquillity. One was somewhat disappointed with the manner inwhich the concert was narrated by Shankar. It was educational, however, and necessary to explain theIndian music because it is so different from Western music.

The sitar, approximately 700years old, is the most popular instrument in India, made of a seasoned gourd and teakwood. It has atrack of 20 metal frets, with six main playing strings above them and 13 resonating strings placed below. Shankar's sitar was a beautiful, well-polished piece of ivory, wood and gourd. As the music continuedShankar announced that 95 per cent of the night's music would be improvised. He explained thatnodding heads between performers indicated pleasure, not mistakes. The music during the first part ofthe show just about put the audience asleep. During the break a conversation overheard between twoadmirers exemplified the universal mood created by Shankar's music: "Isn't this fantastic?" "It certainlyis . . . I've never experienced anything like it!" The mood completely changed after the break when AliaRakha, one of the greatest tabla players in India, performed a drum solo that left the crowd astounded.Not to be outdone, Shankar and Chakravarty played a piece w i t h o u t t h e t a b la accompaniment,that must have completely blown the minds of the audience because nobody clapped for at least 10seconds after it was over. It was just what Shankar wanted; in India politeness is shown by not clapping after each raga, since it is distracting for the performers. A dynamic evening Raga, the concludingpiece, showed a terrific interchange between the tabla player and the sitarist. Ra-kha exhibited hisexceptional qualities of freshness, ease and proportion in his impromptu replies to Shankar's sitar. Thedexterity of his technique and tone production, and his uncanny command of the intricacies of rhythm,have made him unique among India's musicians, and were especially a p p a r e n t on this lastimprovisation. The performance concluded with Shankar striking Rakha's tabla, bringing a downpour ofapplause and a final standing ovation as the three' great musicians left the stage.

The programcalls for the closing of High Street to all vehicles, with the exception of emergency vehicles, from theEdens Hall turnoff to the south side of Haggard Hall. In a booklet titled "Campus Plan Study" it is statedthat High Street has major campus buildings on both sides of the street with the main campus on theeast and the student union, bookstore and auditorium on the west. "This relationship creates a majorproblem between pedestrian and vehicular circulation and the resultant congestion along these threeblocks is serious. Campus Drive also has major campus buildings on both sides of the street r e s u l t in g in similar pedestrian-vehicular conflict and congestion," the booklet stated. The seven-stage program consists of the following: 1 â€”Construct a South Campus Parkway, upgrade 21st and Harris Streetconnection, and construct a south entrance parkway on 23rd between South Campus Parkway and HillStreet. 2â€”Construct a collector street between 23rd and Hill Street and Highland Drive and close thesection of 21st Street which parallels 23rd. 3â€”Close Campus Drive (access to this part of the campuscan still be achieved via the open part of 21st Street). 4-Close High Street between ^Oak and CedarStreets. 5â€”Construct east and central finger access roads from the south entrance parkway into thecentral parts of the campus. 6 â€”Construct connector between Highland Drive and Garden Street. 7 â€” C o m p l e t e east circumference road and develop the north campus entrance. When High Street isfinally closed there will definitely be street furniture, possibly consisting of benches, waste receptacles,signs (if necessary) and kiosks which are structures similar to the new phone booth previously situatedin Red Square, Aegerter said. In Campus Plan Study the circulation plan was. also discussed. It statedthat the" proposed circulation plan for Western has been designed to separate through-traffic fromcollege-oriented traffic and remove existing pedestrian-vehicular conflicts. Arterial and collector streetsare being planned which will carry campus-oriented traffic to the perimeter of the campus and will routeall through-traffic around the campus. Service and access roads will penetrate the campus and will leadto parking lots and service points. The arterial streets are to be the proposed South Campus Parkwayand existing Garden Streets. Beside the closure of High Street, the circulation plan also calls for theclosure of Campus Drive. Traffic will be re-routed onto a proposed collector street that would connect theSouth Campus Parkway with a portion of Highland Drive and would eventually extend to Garden Street.New apartments to be finished by Fall One hundred and thirty-two a p a r t m e n t s are beingconstructed across from Sehome High School on College Parkway for sale to Western in time for nextFall quarter. The Birnam Wood apartments cost $1,848,000 and will house about 528 students. "We'revery close to being on schedule and so far the weather has been pretty good to us," Chet Walczak,project superintendent for United Homes of Federal Way, said last week. Anyone who has beenwatching the projects has been seeing "quite a bit of stuff up in the air," as the project is moving "almost unbelievably rapidly," New computer terminals added Four new computer terminals will soon be inoperation on campus in strategic locations for student and faculty use. They are located in Old Main207A, Haggard Hall 306, Miller Hall 423 and at Fairhaven. Each terminal will be rented from IBM for$125 per month. This is more feasible than buying them, since IBM will provide free servicing. To usethe terminals, one need only take the training class for VA. hours. The class is offered once or twice perweek. The computer center in Bond Hall 306 will provide complete information. Robert Holtz, director ofthe computer center, expects most student users to be in math and science. However, a broaderspectrum of faculty will be involved, including a member of the foreign language department who is doingresearch. In its quarterly report, the computer center announced a substantial increase in terminal use.A total of 16,054 jobs were run in 397.8 hours. This is up from 14,734 jobs run in 350.1 hours during Fallquarter. GVs afraid declaration 'subversive' Washington (CPS)-"We hold these truths to be self evident,that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights,that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." The above portion of the Declaration ofIndependence was read recently to 151 Gl'sata base in West Germany, in an experiment conducted bythe University of Maryland's overseas division. The soldiers were asked to sign if they agreed. Nothaving been told where the quote came from, the GIs were wary. Seventy-three per cent of them refusedto sign the statement because they were afraid it was subversive. Ralph Wolbert, campus constructioncoordinator, said. The apartments- are surrounded by tall fir trees covering the 7.5 acre land site whichwas given the address of 2901 College Parkway. Wolbert and Walczak were u n s u r e of what eachtwo-bedroom apartment would be equipped with. However, Walczak said there will be a recreationalfacility with sauna rooms, kitchen and laundry area and shower facilities. The apartments were originally being considered to house married couples in one area, and groups of four students in otherapartments. Since the original plans, another complex named Project 71 has been designated formarried couples while Birnam Wood apartments will operate with four students in each apartment.YAMAHOi SALESâ€”PARTS SERVICE ACCESSORIES Mny Model for the Budget Minded" HUNTINGFISHING PLEASURE RIDING STATE APPROVED HELMETS" "WE TRADE" -. 734-3929MOTORCYCLE CENTER 1114 DUPONT INC.

Bill No. 99 reads: Whereas Nixon, Agnew, Mitchell, and Hoover and their assortedunderlings are waging a campaign of brutal repression against dissident members of society; andWhereas the tempo of this repression has been stepped up recently in the belief that the Americanpeople are willing to abide Facism if it brings "order;" and Whereas the prime target of this repression is the Black Panther Party, the Vanguard Party; and Whe r e a s the government is presently carryingout its plan to electrocute Chairman Bobby Seale; and Whereas the scope of repression is beingexpanded to whites as well by use of so-called "conspiracy" laws; and Whereas we, the AS Legislature wish to take action to show our solidarity with our brothers and sisters currently on the front lines whoare experiencing the full fury of this campaign of repression, Therefore, be it resolved that we herebyauthorize the Legal Aids department to spend $1,000 to secure speakers from the Black Panther Party. Bert Halprin, AS Legislator who introduced the bill, stated that there is no greater priority than standingup in solidarity; an Students fix up historic cabins Two "historic" cabins remain almost untouched on the ridge just south of Fairhaven College, but students are beginning to "fix them up," Charles Harwood,dean of Fairhaven College, said last week. Following a check on the cabins by security departmentpersonnel, Lee Fullner, security officer, said that students were renovating the cabins "with the intentionof living there. The safety and security department now has an understanding with the college that thecabins "are to remain intact," and the activity was reported to President Charles Flora's office. Harwoodsaid that students are cleaning up the cabins for the cluster college's general use, and to preserve them. "One student has requested that he be allowed to live in them but we have not accepted the request,"Harwood added. Jack Carver, of the Bellingham Herald, said that the cabins were part of an originalhomestead built in the late 1920's by June Burn and her husband. Mrs. Burn wrote books and also didsome writing for the Herald, Carver said. The cabins are now the property of the college. The off-campus housing listing service is now a joint operation of the AS Housing Commission and the housing office.The service is located in the Housing Commission office, VU 227, ext. 2610. Prejudice AgainstImperfection Admire, if you must, the man with his feet well planted who can pay cash. But when doesromance wait for cash? Let Weisfield's do it. We have credit plans for students of promise. 274.50wetsfields JEWELERS issue important both on and off campus. "We should crack down on what isgoing on in this country. We exist in a murdering, terrorizing society that is waging a campaign toeliminate every member of the Black Panther Party by putting them behind bars. "We need members of the Panther Party to come to Western to educate our students," Halprin said in support of the bill.Legislator Jim Maloney said that the function of any university is to give no greater priority than to theliberation of itself. He believes that allocations to "various asundry groups on campus are blatantexamples of institutional racism." Legislator Joe McConkey said that he was not opposed to thePanthers coming to speak, but that the purpose of the Legal Aids department is to spend money onlegal aid. He said that the intent of the bill was toward a donation to the Panther Party. McConkey wasreferring to a proposal that was withdrawn which said, in part: "Therefore be it resolved that we herebyallocate and transfer the sum of $1,000 (one thousand dollars) to the Black Panther Party Defense Fund and the sum of $1,000 (one thousand dollars) to the Seattle 8 Defense Fund." Whatever is done withthe money is subject to the president of the college and the Board of Trustees; the AS Legislature does not have this power, McConkey said. "We don't have $1,000 or five cents. It may be budgeted to use,but the state can come in any time and take the money away," McConkey said. McConkey suggestedthat the Legislature instruct Activities Commissioner George Hartwell to budget in the money next yearif possible. He attacked the bill as "illegal and impossible." The State of Washington cannot legally givestate funds to students without some manner of control, according to Dean of Students C.W. McDonald. It is illegal to make contributions to any group. McDonald raised the questions of who made theoverture to invite the Black Panthers to the campus, and by what basis the speaker is worth $1,000.WE'RE NOT EXPENSIVE, We Just Look That Way.

Gay lord Nelson (D.-Wisc), who spokehere Friday on the ravished environment. "Because of the tremendous participation of students on Earth Day, I feel students are ahead of city councils, state and federal government and President Nixon,"Nelson said. "Revolution or socialism is not the answer to end pollution. The Baltic Sea is seven timesbigger than Lake Erie and it has been destroyed by the socialist countries, Russia in particular. "Theanswer is nationwide p o l i t i c a l action and participation. We have to make the red army in thePentagon obsolete. We have enough weapons. The cost of saving our environment is going to takegovernment expenditures equivalent to the space race and defense.". Neison said he doesn't supportPresident Nixon's decision to go into Cambodia. Nelson also said he favors an all volunteer army andthat he proposed the first volunteer army bill in 1964. The first of two task force studies on the StudentCo-op has been submitted to AS President Greg Baker. Among the several recommendations madewere suggestions to discontinue the record department, lower the grade of paper carried and sell it at alower cost and set up a system by which the AS business manager could review the finances of thebook store. The next report is to be submitted to the AS President. May 30. Les Savitch, chairman ofthe task force, said that he would like to hear nay gripes that students may have about the book storeand added that any complaints can be registered in the AS business office, VU 211 or by calling 2272.Diplomatic relations between two long-separated Viking realms were opened yesterday with the arrivalat Western of the Osgaardian Ambassador to Bel I Ingham, His Excellency, Thor, son of Odin.Materializing in Red Square at high noon sidereal time, the emissary spoke to the welcomingcrowd through the universal language of his famous Thunder Hammer. As the almost deafening peals ofsound rolled across campus, experts polled by the Western Front gave this summary of Thor'sdiplomatic message: "Osgaard favors the opening of a new era of good feeling between the mortaland immortal planes. We will take steps to increase contacts between gods and men. We hope thatearth will prepare its environment to assure a positive outcome of these contacts. "Thor's mission toWestern is to express Os-gaard's pleasure with the Mufti Arts Festival planned to occur in and aroundBellingham May 17-24. This is the type of e n v iron men tal crea tion that promises satisfactoryattainment of our mutual goals. Western's long Viking tradition makes this site all the more suitablefor the beginning of a new age.")T)t gt; gt;llltllftlllIIIIlltllllllllllllllllll||||l||||||||l|l|llllllll!IMIIIIItllllllllltIltU1)tllllll!IIIIIIIIIIlllllIlllllllltUUllIlItltIlllltllll(lll(IIIIIUIIIttllllltllIlltlt^ OUT UR EN START BUYING YOUR RECORDS TAPES FRO ORDER NO.

NAME ADDRESS CITY,STATE, ZIP Total amount enclosed $ ---------- Western Front - 1970 May 5 - Page 13 ---------- Tuesday, May 5, 1970 Western Front 13 Tunnel Cove more glass than sand Although the weatherdoesn't seem to want to show it, this is spring, and when Westerners think of spring they head forChuckanut Drive and the beaches. One of the most popular of these is Tunnel Cove. Unfortunately,Tunnel Cove seems a major target of those among us who enjoy smashing beer bottles on the rocks and littering beaches beyond recognition. Doug Clark, the owner of the Cove and all the land around it says this litter has been a problem ever since he opened the private road into his house nine years ago."They [the students] don't seem to appreciate this as private property which they are given the privilegeof using," Clark said. Clark has provided for anyone's use a small parking area which is for the cars ofthose visiting the Cove. He also recently had to install a no trespassing sign to keep people fromdefacing all his property beyond the Cove trail. "I don't mind people using the Cove at all, but I would like them to respect the [no trespassing] sign," Clark said. Most people seem to respect the sign, and usethe parking area. This space can be easily identified by the large piles of garbage and various discarded articles. Clark said that "by far most of that stuff is put there by college kids." The trail to the beachwinds down through virgin forest which has never been logged or defaced except by those who use thebeach. The trees, ferns and flowers are the same as they have always been. If people going down thispath expect to find the same natural setting on the beach as on the path, they will be disappointed. The first view a person has upon hitting the beach area will be one of a large grassy area liberally decoratedwith beer bottles, bottle tops and Acey 12- ounce keggar cups. There is no real beach at the Cove, dueto the large rock retainer wall built for the railroad tracks. No person in their right mind would want towalk on these rocks in bare feet, because even at low tide broken glass appears to cover the rocks.Even though fires are illegal on the beach, several charred areas in the grass show positive proof of thedisregard to this law. This beach is a beautiful area with a fantastic view of the bay, almost unmarked by humans except for party evidence. Doug Clark doesn't mind parties, so perhaps we should thank hisgenerosity by cleaning up the area. photos and story by Lyn Watts ELLJNGHAM MALL the fabulous1211 11th St 733-9929 Heavy Music NAME BANDS on Weekends Monday NO COVER CHARGEHappy Hour - Every Day 8-9 NO COVER CHARGE College Parkway_ft Interstate^ All lt;^tfeMALLstops~welcome^^OTi JO â€”z^==. -T1â€” - JOL: (next to Wlumart) Town 8, Country" Z^^sz, Women'sSportswear - that men talk about â€”- \( J^kory Farms ^Cheese Specialists 1. and gourmet furnishers ,Bocks a Hobbies ( - - â€” - ^ equipment and supplies ~~^ _ for every craft JoAnn's Fashion junior sizesin sportswear "with the "in" looF C-" The Huntsman ^â€”q men's "now" look in -^ sportswear - flairs â€”j Discount Fabrics piece goods and notions _! priced especially right lt;-' r JN^MorgansI|Mlmark: c=^-.â€”^ .^ _c_ards, gifts, posters ^for every occasion Maurice's Beauty_Salon cuts, permanents, wigs -^_Let us do your hair next " Tom Johnson's imported gifts and luggage important newjdeas ThelSag "^ ~H^^ Barber and Stylist pick your best Jime by appointment ^TisdaJe's Decor tasteful gifts - decor and"art supplies of distinction Bob Wallin complete insurance needs carjiome, boat, personal C unusualgifts â€”-~^_ carvings, things, etc. AlbertfelSf^ Restaurant and Lounge - watch for opening shop at yourcoraenienee acres of free parking mon-fri. 10am- 9pm sat. 10 am-6pm^ ( sun. noon-6pnT~ ^-â€” - ---------- Western Front - 1970 May 5 - Page 14 ---------- T*f M.bbltJIII I IUIIL I u u j u u y , miuy u, I U I u Viks rip Whitworth Bob Taylor sports editor Western'sbaseball team extended its winning streak to 1 Day Shirt Service COMPLETE LAUNDRY AND DRYCLEANING Free Pickup Delivery 734-4200 PROSHECT seven games, dumping Whitworth for thesecond successive weekend, 6-1 and 6-0 at Whitworth.

In every move he makes on the field there is a certain qualitythat puts him in a league by himself. Long-time Bellingham umpire "Busher" Lewis ranks him withformer Western ballplayer Roger Repoz, who is now a major league outfielder for the California Angels."Roger had more power, but Chavez has the quicker bat," Lewis stated in comparing the two as hitters.In the field Chavez has the range few outfielders can match. More than once he has made catches ofballs headed for doubles or triples. Many compare his catches to those of another Viking fly-chaserJack Nighbert, who was named to the 1965 NAIA All-American team. The key to Chavez' outstandingfielding lies not only in great speed, but the "jump" he can get on a ball. Jump meaning the innate abilityto judge in a split second where a ball is going and getting a quick start in that direction. An All-Evergreen conference outfielder last season. Chavez transferred to Western from El Camino JuniorCollege. He came to the northwest to play under Conrad Hamilton, who coached Mm at MorningsideHigh School in Inglewood, Calif. So far the Viking captain has been around the .300 level all season. This figure is adequate to say the least, but for Chavez it is far below his potential. If the switch-hitting senior breaks loose the Vikings will give Central Washington all the competition they will care for as Westernvies with the Wildcats for the conference title.

Western Front photo by ShoblomOarsmen edged by UW In the closest race of the season, Western's eight-oared crew team lost to atough University of Washington (UW) varsity lightweight team last Sunday at Lake Samish. The UWteam finished the 2000 meter course in 6:26, less than one second ahead of Western. The same BigBlue team in a later race, were defeated by the University of British Columbia. The winning time was6:52, some six seconds faster than the Viks. In other action, the UW second varsity lightweight teamstroked by Western's junior varsity eight-man team for a 6:49 race. This was 21 seconds faster than theViks. In the University of Washington Invitational meet held last Saturday in Seattle, every individual onWestern's women tennis made either the finals or the consolation finals. The.University of Washington(UW), Central Washington State College (CWSC), University of Puget Sound, Pacific LutheranUniversity (PLU), Highline Junior College, and Western attended the meet. In this meet which was on an individual and not a team basis, Western's Kay Kramer bounced by her opponent in the third singlesconsolation finals 6-3, 6-8 and 6-0. Sue Fallen also won her consolation final. Though playing quite well, Barbara Fisher lost her match to Trish Bostrom from the UW, who is rated the third best women'stennis player in the northwest. In the first doubles match, Trena Page and Alice Textor outscored PLU 6-2 and 6-3, but were taken by CWSC 6-1, 1-6, and 3-6 in the semi-finals.

Security is just trying to give the people a chance. Theresult of this sudden barrage of red tape is a dormitory without parking space. Citations have beenissued to any car in Buchanan Towers' "mud hole" for the last week, a f t e r over a year of non-enforcement. It was never designated a parking lot, but there were no "No Parking" signs either. Was aprecedent set by security, or is it just a considerate gesture finally being withdrawn? Whatever theanswer, irate car-owners at Buchanan Towers are without room to park. All the Fairhaven lots are full,with one or two vacant spots left late last week. "It (the empty lot) was a c o n s t r u c t i o n yard when Buchanan Towers was built," Harold Goltz, director of Campus Planning, reiterated. "It remains, as faras we're concerned, a construction lot area." The lot is contracted for a utility project, beginning withintwo weeks, to install an electrical cable and tie transformer. It is not a parking lot, and never has been a parking lot, even though some people have parked their cars there. The order was issued last week tobegin enforcing no parking in the lot by R. G. Peterson, director of the Safety and Security Department.Security realizes the short notice given, and wants to give people a change to find another place. Uponpresentation at the Security office, 316-21st Street, any citation for that lot will be changed to a warning. Security officer Chuck Page said the purpose was not to fine the students, but to get the messageacross that they can't park there. Meanwhile, chances to improve the parking situation do exist. Themobile homes near Fairhaven will be relocated in three or four weeks, Pete Coy, assistant director ofhousing, said last week. "I want to give the students as much parking as I can," Coy said. "But I have to work through the system just like everybody else." Coy has tried to get the construction lot moved,only to collide with Campus Planning's previous contract. He will try to get permission from the ParkingCommittee to develop the "mud hole," but a meeting date has not yet been set. If the lot is set aside for parking, the Parking Committee may develop it, and charge students to park there. Or Housing may beable to fund it and provide free parking for residents. The utility project is due to be completed in January. the ^ wester n front western Washington state college IOC Vol. 65 No. X 2- Wednesday September27,1972 Bellingham, Wash.

AS to hear lawyer on lawsuit progress The fate of the Associated Students' (AS) lawsuitagainst Western may be decided tonight as the AS Board of Directors meets for the first time thisquarter. AS attorney John Anderson will inform the board of the progress of the lawsuit and ofnegotiations with Asst. Atty. Gen. William Gingery, who acts as the college's lawyer. Anderson willpresent the board with a list of stipulations which, if approved by the board, will be sent to Gingery,according to Kennedy. The list will, if agreed to by Gingery, be used as a working agreement between AS and the administration, thus avoiding the lawsuit. "We (the students) are going to be getting somethingout of this," Kennedy said. "What we are asking is completely within the law." Also on tonight's agendais a proposal to establish a political affairs committee and a discussion of a mass transit proposal by thecity. The Political Affairs Commission (PAC) proposed by Kennedy will be the campus branch of thestate-wide Intercollegiate Political Affairs Commission. PAC will be primarily concerned with voterregistration, information gathering and acting as a lobbying body. Ed Griemsmann, manager of the citytransit, will propose that students, for a fee of $2.00 per student a quarter, be given use of the city transit system for an entire quarter. Transit service would also be extended to midnight. Inside... Flora vote onagenda A special committee gave a report on the Flora vote last night at the All-College Senate. See pg.2.

Five days toregister by STEVEN NEFF If you haven't registered to vote yet, you have until Saturday to do so. Atable has been set up in the Viking Union lobby for voter registration. Additional registration locations willbe set up anywhere there will be a large number of people according to Dean Powers, deputy registrar for Western. For example, besides the regular hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the VU lobby, tables will be setup in front of campus functions and in front of each of the Viking Commons. So far this quarter,approximately 80-90 people per day have registered. According to Powers, these people are mostlytransfer students. .... Registration procedures have changed in the past year due to activity in the statelegislature and the federal government's action lowering the voting age to 18. If you will be 18 on or beforeelection day, you can 'register to vote, Another change in registration proceedings involves residencerequirements. The resident requirement has been dropped. However, you must be able to show that youhave lived at one permanent address for 30 days. Dormitory addresses do not count as permanentresidences. If you have registered in your hometown, it is not necessary to re-register in Bellinghamunless you wish to support local candidates or issues. You can vote in your home precinct by absenteeballot. According to Terry Unger, Whatcom County election supervisor, the procedure for obtaining anabsentee ballot is to write to the County Auditor of the county in which you are registered. In your letteryou must include your registered name, address and precinct. No particular form is required. Any letterwill do but it must have a written signature. Otherwise you will not receive a ballot.

Carl Maxey, Spokane attorney who ran against Sen. Henry Jackson in the 1970 Democratic senatorial race, will speak in the Viking Union Lounge on why "Under Nixon Everyone is a Nigger." Maxey has been active in civil rights, the peace movement and Democratic campaigns. He supported Eugene McCarthy's bid for the presidency in the last election and is presently working forGeorge McGovern. Appearing with Maxey will be Paul Elliott, state McGovern campus, coordinator.Suzanne Cloke, senior speech and hearing major from Seattle, is the Whatcom County campuscoordinator. She expects both Maxey and Elliott to emphasize voter registration. Cloke said theMcGovern Whatcom County campus campaign will involve canvassing both Whatcom and Okanogancounties, plus registering new voters. About 25 people are involved in the McGovern campaign oncampus, and she said that more help is needed. Maxey's visit is being sponsored by the YoungDemocrats, a campus group, and the Whatcom County McGovern for President Committee.. ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 3 - Page 2 ---------- Western Front Tuesday, October 3, 1972 All-College Senate no-confidence report given last night byHOWARD SCOTT A special committee of the All-College Senate, appointed to investigate the reasonsbehind a 208 to 182 faculty vote of no confidence in College President Charles J. Flora spring quarter,was to make a preliminary report to the senate last night in order to find out what the senate wishes to do with the committee's final report. The committee was set up by the senate when the Board of Trusteesrequested that the senate "examine the facts and circumstances" leading to the secret faculty poll May26. Edwin Clapp, chairman of the nine member committee, said the report was to be a "proceduralmatter." "We want to ask the senate what it wishes us to do with the final report when we prepare it,"Clapp said. The committee has sent questionnaires to faculty members asking how they voted and togive reasons for their response. The questionnaires are to be returned to the committee by Friday. Clappsaid he has received a "substantial" number of the questionnaires; enough to give the senate apreliminary report. Jim Kennedy, Associated Students chairman of the board and member of the reviewcommittee, says he thinks that because of the subject of the report, "The senate should review thecommittee's techniques and methods in preparing the report." "If it (the senate) approves of our methods, then I think the report should be sent directly to the trustees without being discussed in the senate." Itwould be "unfair for the senate to pick apart the report," Kennedy said. The committee will handle its final report when it is finished in accordance with the senate's wish, Clapp said. Enrollment down WOOstudents Enrollment figures show that 8,465 students registered during the first two days of registration. Approximately 8,700 students are expected by the time r e g i s t r a t i o n closes today, according toregistrar William O'Neil. The enrollment decline, expected since last January, may result in a loss of$300,000 from the college operating budget. Freshman enrollment is down about 400 students, 100fewer transfer students are expected and returning students will probably number around 500 fewer,O'Neil said. Dr. William Bultmann, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, sees the situation as achance to catch up, following the college's rapid pace during the past decade. "While the leveling off ofenrollment obviously poses some immediate financial problems for the college, it does present us with asignificant opportunity," Bultmann said. "For the first time in many years, Western will be able to dosome things other than concerning itself with how to accommodate masses of u n a n t i c i p a t e dstudents in inadequate facilities," he said. Bultmann also said the college will now be able to study thequality of the programs and the needs of people in the community, such as the senior citizens and thehandicapped.

Bike thefts: increase costly Bicycles valued at $8,821 were reportedstolen on campus from Sept., 1970, to last June. Of these 87 bikes, 68 disappeared from dorm areasand a high percentage were stolen in the months of October and November, according to security officerLee Brown. Recovery of stolen bikes at Western coincides with the national average of about two percent. Brown urges students to register their bikes with the security office, located at 316 21st St., sothat if their bike is lost or stolen, there will be a better chance of recovering it. The bikes registered oncampus are also registered with the city. Brown said that security personnel are more than willing to tell the bike owner the best type of chains to use, as well as how to chain a bike. If a bike does not have aserial number, one can be created with a branding machine at the security department. One problemwith bicycle thefts is that many students may see a theft in progress but do not report it. Last spring, to find out if this were true, a Western Front reporter went up to a chained bike, cut the chain andproceeded to ride the bike away with cutter and chain clearly visible. No one reported it to security untilafter the story appeared in the Front describing the details of the alleged theft. Several students thenreported that they had seen the whole thing. "We can't work without the students' help," Brown says."You have got to tell us. Next time, it might be you."

However, since the House version of the bill calls foronly a 14.5 per cent increase it is doubtful if a boost will be effective the start of this quarter. The Senatebill would equate GI bill rates to what World War II veterans received, according to Senate veterans affairscommittee chairman Vance Hartke. An amendment to the Senate bill which would have authorized theVeterans Administration to pay up to $1,000 annually, in addition to his regular GI bill allowances waswithdrawn at the last minute. The Senate bill amendment was withdrawn by Senator Charles Mathiasafter receiving assurances from Hartke that he would conduct a study of the "direct tuition aid" idea to becompleted early next session. The Senate bill would raise GI bill rates from $175 to $250 for singleveterans, from $205 to $297 for veterans with one dependent and from $230 to $339 for veterans with twodependents. â€¢The House bill would raise rates to $200 monthly for single veterans, $234 for those withone dependent and $262 for veterans with two dependents. The Senate bill includes a proposal to permitGI bill recipients to borrow up to $1,575 a year in addition to the monthly payments. The Senate bill alsocontains an advanced pay proposal but differs from the one approved by the House. The Senate versionwould have the veterans pick up his advance check at his college at the beginning of the school term.The House bill would have the check mailed directly to the veteran. One House provision agreed to by the Senate would equalize treatment between female and male veterans in payment of VA benefits. 1310TWELFTH IN FAIRHAVEN the Xtiicloni Coop announces s Â§MOKE 4 IIOIÂ» COUMTER The StudentCooperative Bookstore has expanded to include two exciting new departments.

Fairhaven dorms will also be used for special events, such as housing visiting footballteams, seminars, symposiums and any other reasonable college-related group. Look to Fairhaven forcheap overnight rates as well as a s t i m u l a t i n g educational atmosphere. Sick students mustcheck-in Western students carrying the Whatcom County Physicians Service (WCPS) medical plan are advised that before going to a physician they should first go to the Health Services office at Edens Hallto be examined. This step is designed to eliminate students from first seeking medical aid privately,avoiding payment by their medical plan. "Many problems can be treated at the clinic on campus, butthose needing further care can be sent to a local physician subscribing to WCPS," Culver said. "Thereare more than 90 in the area." In case of emergency, students should immediately contact a physician. Western, students can acquaint themselves with the WCPS by obtaining a brochure at the StudentHealth Center, at the WCPS office downtown or at the information desk in the VU lounge. The pamphlets should be r e a d t h o r o u g h l y , and clarification can be obtained by calling the WCPS at 734-8000. ^ ^ ^ ^ / j ^ f W ^ Â£[ 9UPOK1VIR SPCCThCULdR KISM FM STEREO 93 SUPER-STAR SevenSUPER-STAR concerts . . . on stage . in person . . . and recorded in stereo!

Right now the library is passing out free temporary I.D. cards to students coming into the library.Within a week or so the permanent I.D. cards will be ready, also at the library. However, this presents aminor problem: In order to get an I.D. card, a student has to go to the library. And some students havebeen known to attend Western for four years without once setting foot inside the place. So the college is right back where it started: a lot of students running around without their identification cards andprobably not one bit concerned about it. But according to the library, the real reason behind the change is because some students have not bothered to have their pictures taken, so the college has done awaywith photographs. If this is an attempt to get students to pick up I.D. cards then it seems like a strangeway to go about it. Why would students who didn't want their picture on their I.D. or wouldn't take thetime to have one taken would now take the time to wander over from the coffee shop and pick up a card? Still what is gripping students about the new pictureless I.D. cards is that they are now losing one of thereadily accepted forms of identification when it comes to dealing with downtown businesses. It's a wellingrained policy to require a couple of pieces of I.D. just to go about cashing a check and these I.D.pieces generally must have a picture and a signature. And in this age of positive identification, thequestion people will be raising is "How do I know this is you?" Political comment Hearts will grow fonderfor either Rosellini or Evans by STEVEN NEFF Perhaps the old saw about absence making the heartgrow fonder could explain the victory of ex-Governor Albert D. Rosellini in the Sept. 19 primary election.It is also possible that many who voted for Rosellini have forgotten his programs which ended so abruptlyeight years ago, when Dan Evans defeated him. A third, and possibly more interesting reason forRosellini's primary victory is the cross-over vote. I have talked with several Republicans who are DanEvans backers and said they voted for Rosellini in the primary. These individuals seem to feel Evans hasa better chance in the general election against the man he defeated once, and with the third term issueremoved since both men will be trying for their third term as governor, the campaign will center on realissues, such as tax reform, the environment and state government. Rosellini's appeal during his primarycampaign was directed toward the past. His slogan, "Remember the good years," bears this out. Hewanted to be remembered for the roads he built and the good economic condition of the state during histime in office. Evans, on the other hand, will be defending his programs of the last eight years, duringwhich time Washington state has gone through perhaps the most disastrous economic period since theDepression. From where I sit, the campaign shapes up like this-: Rosellini will be saying that Evans hasbeen spending too much money and going for the nostalgia vote with Evans pointing to Rosellini'scampaign backward in time. But with the third term issue effectively removed it promises to be aninteresting gubernatorial race. the ^ western front STAFF ^ EDITOR: Steve Johnston MANAGINGEDITOR: Jack Broom PRODUCTION: John Brewington SPORTS: O.K.Johnson COPY EDITORS: AliceCollingwood, Bob McLauchlan, Rodger Painter, Kathi Sandboe, Howard Scott AD MANAGER: SteffiBruell GRAPHICS: Elsi Vassdal, Gail Sherman REPORTERS: Alan Bauer, Dan Benckendorf, BillBraswell, Sonja Brown, Doug Cockburn, Nick Gardner, Steve Garvey, Sue Gawrys, Dick Grove, BruceHayes, James Heitzman, Rochelle Henderson, Heidi Henken, Michael Hull, Gary Johnson, Rahn Lahti,Jim Larsen, Dennis Mansker, Judy Mooers, Keith Myette, Gary Neal, Steven Neff, Rick Ries, DennisRitchie, Richard Roff, Tim Scott, Kent Sherwood, Sherry Stripling, Roy Tanaka, Janet Weasma, DuffWilson The Western Front is the official newspaper of Western Washington State College.

Stannard Jr. ADVERTISING PHONE 676-3160 the front line by DUFF WILSON "I heard that the dormitories were going to have cable T.V. hook-ups this year, to go along with higherroom rates. So I stayed on campus and guess what? My expenses went up, but the services for mymoney didn't. No cable hook-ups. Who is responsible? The Housing Office? Where are the cable hook-ups?" P.A.M. The cables are in limbo. The Board of Trustees decided to hold off on this plan until thefinancial status of Housing-Dining is reviewed, October 12. Pete Coy, assistant director of housing,formulated the cable T.V. idea last year but was unable to carry through. Foreseeing great educationalbenefits as well as other uses for the hook-ups, Coy still hopes to implement the plan this year. Thecable hook-ups would include an initial cost of $50,000 for the distribution system, and $1 a year tooperate each connection thereafter. (By the way, "rate increases are primarily due to inflation . . . if wehad 100 per cent occupancy (in the dorms) this year we could even give some sort of rebate," Coy said."Why do graduate and upper-division students have to take college entrance exams after they have beenin college for several years? When I came to Western after being in junior college for two years, theschool sent a note saying if I didn't take this college entrance exam I would be kicked out of school. Italso cost a couple of bucks to take the test which didn't tell me anything anyway." S.E.J. Had theresults from any previous test been presented to the Testing Center, you would not have suffered thehumiliation of another exam. However, says Don Blood gt; college examiner, every enrolled student isrequired to have at least one aptitude test, however old, on record. His likely success in college, or lack of it, is to a certain extent predictable from this. Since you entered Western six years after taking theWashington Pre-College Test (WPCT) in high school, the WPCT Center at the University of Washingtoncould not send a data sheet. They are destroyed after five years there. Then, if neither you nor your highschool have copies, you're outta luck. You must take another test and, for your benefit, the School andCollege Ability Test (SCAT) is available for $1. Another WPCT would cost more than $8, so the TestingCenter employs SCAT. Although pigeon-holing entering students is frowned upon by some, many think itserves a valid and necessary function. Questions? Hassles? Complaints? Write FRONTLINE WesternFront letters WashPIRG and fear Editor, Western Front: The article on WashPIRG in the Sept. 27issue says, "The big fear . . . was the concern over establishing a precedent with a college collectingfunds for an organization over which the institution has no control." I believe the big fear was thatWashPIRG would prove to be a controversial organization that would expose some of the a n t i - c o ms u m e r and anti-environmental practices of some of the businesses in the state. That would explainwhy the Board of Trustees stalled approving WashPIRG by saying it was waiting for a ruling by theattorney general's office on the legality of the funding mechanism and then, when the ruling wasimminent, killed the proposal without hearing from the attorney general. Jerry Richard FairhavenWhere's the voices now ? Editor, Western Front: .; gt;.V;..Co/nfusjng, or is it? Western students longhave protested vehemently to any "in locus parentis" stance the College administration has taken.Students have been braying their i n d e p e n d e n c e of the College-"We are adults. We do not needthe College. We can manage our own affairs. Associated Students can function more effectively outside the College," and they launched a law suit to prove it. Now that the Attorney General advises "Cut offfinancial support" and AS adds up a less of funds already amounting to $3,000-"$3,000 poorer and alittle wiser"â€”both AS Chairman Kenendy and the Front editorial writer who recommends dropping thesuit apparently think a little more kindly about a "parental stand by the Administration to keep ASafloat." Where are the "We do not need the College" voices now? But, you see, money is involved, andstudent leaders are not as disdainful of this part of the establishment as they posture and pretend. Now,if non-students were to pull such a "we don't want ybu/yes we do" switch, students would be the first tobrand the act a monstrous hypocrisy. But when we students do it-man, it's right on!

The co-op parents and directors haven't found funding forthe new nursery yet, but hope the administration will help. The Associated Students and the collegepartially fund the present co-op, but in the past, they have both refused to increase the funding. "Theparents' (on the waiting list) situations are pretty desperate," said Cathy Dexter, co-director of thenursery. "Their average income is $3,000 per year, and they can't afford to pay for a babysitter. All theycan do is drop out of school." The co-op, which is now entering its fourth quarter of existence, began tocharge parents summer quarter to help hire a second director. The co-op is only funded for one full-timedirector, which the parents think is inadequate. The cost per family is determined according to incomeand the number of hours the children spend in the nursery a week. The average cost per family,according to Dexter, is about $4 a week. Parents are also expected to spend at least four or five hoursper week at the nursery and pay $1 a week for lunches. Dexter is assisting the parents in setting up thenew nursery, while Jan Newton, the other director, will be taking care of the present nursery. "It is sooverwhelming," Dexter said. "We have so many people and the same amount of funding." The nursery is receiving the same funding now as it did when the co-op first started. The co-op originally had about 20children enrolled, and it now has 60, not counting those on the waiting list. The co-op plans to donatehalf its equipment and toys to the new nursery to help get it started. "We're going to need just abouteverything you can possibly imagine that a nursery needs," Dester said. "If anyone has cribs, toys oranything else they can donate, we will need them desperately." "We also need volunteers to work in the nursery," Dexter said. "Students can earn credit, and we will help arrange getting it set up." The co-opnursery is located in Fairhaven dorms 11 and 12. Phone 676-3021.

That's the assumption of the Women's Resource Centre, which recently organized to give womena chance for change. Christine Avalon, spokesman for the center, met Thursday with women staff fromlocal newspapers to explain the purposes and activities of the center, situated in the Bellingham YWCA Studio. To fill the gaps in society, the center offers a lending library on the women's movement andclasses in divorce, self-help, legal aid, anti-war action and health. Whether the center will focus on giving information or services will be decided by the members, Avalon said.

Meditation offeredAcclaimed as the answer to student unrest, drug abuse, hypertension, anxiety, high blood pressure and. cardiac arrest, classes in transcendental meditation will be given at Western this fall. While not listedin the college catalog'as a course offering, the classes will be conducted by the S t u d e n t s I n t e r na t i o n al Meditation Society. An instructor in the course, Robert Warren says meditation "is a verysimple and completely natural technique of gaining a unique state of deep rest and relaxation whichreleases or dissolves existing tensions and stresses." Warren commented that "it is neither aphilosophy nor a religion. One does not have to change his life style or eating habits to practice it." Hesaid faith is neither required nor necessary, "all that has to be done is to practice the technique regularly twice a day and prescribed goals can be achieved." Warren estimated that there are about 400students who have taken the course. About thirty take the course each quarter he said. Studentsenrolling in the course are given two lectures, an interview and then personal instruction. For three nights in a row after the interview the student's experience is "verified and validated and additional informationis given." Each student in the class is assigned a "mantra" or meaningless sound which Warren couldonly define as "the vehicle that allows meditation to take place." The meditation club has been on thecampus about two and one-half years. They meet at 7 p.m. every Sunday in VU 335. The first twolectures, which are free, will be held at 8 p.m. Oct. 3 in the College Hall 231 and Oct. 7 in Miller Hall160. * * * Jhndy J Shoe Repair 1* Heels while you wait * Â£ 1333 Railroad in 3 minutes * * * * * * * * * v/knsual 4-Channel Sylvania Sounds Wiztronics, Inc. Alabama CornwallOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOPOOOOOOOOOOOCOOOQl ---------- Western Front - 1972 October 3 - Page 7 ---------- Student designed majors by BOB McLAUCHLAN Students can now design their own majors, if theydon't mind the time involved in planning and working with faculty members. The student-faculty designed interdisciplinary major program was established over a year ago. The purpose is to provide studentswith an opportunity to innovate their own major when they find a regular degree unsatisfactory to theirfuture goal. "It's a lot of work writing your own catalogue," says by KATHISANDBOE Those who thinkthe Career Planning and Placement Center is only for graduating students, lessen their chances offinding a job after graduating. Although some students still think of the center as the Placement Office,the name was changed to indicate to students the complete services the center offers. In the past,when the job market was good, there was less emphasis on career planning. Now with the'job shortage,it is a good idea for the student to know beforehand the supply and demand of the field in which he isinterested. Two counselors are available at the center to work with students on a one-to-one basis.Louis Lallas, director of the center, works with education majors and Jean Herbold works with arts andsciences majors. These counselors can offer ideas and suggestions to help students plan their careers.They can also give information on employment trends. "Since the job market has changed," said Lallas, "and employers are more critical of the employees they hire, the competition is much greater. Students are no longer guaranteed their first job preference." The center can offer extensive information to R o sc o e L. B u c k l a n d, coordinator for the student designed major program. To design his own major, astudent must first pick up a contract form from Buckland's office in Miller Hall (MH) 363. The studentthen: â€”consults with a faculty member of his choice to advise on what route to take. â€”talks with onefaculty member from each department represented, with two or more courses in the major, and securesthe faculty's approval. â€”returns the contract copies to MH 363 and secures an appointment with thestudent m a j o r committee. The committee is appointed by Buckland and consists of a minimum ofthree faculty members. â€”arranges a meeting with the major committee and secures approval of theprogram. Both the student and the committee are responsible for checking pre-requisites, program ofstudy, language and content of title, students on job descriptions, including locales, pay scales, fringebenefits and even retirement programs. The center, located in the basement of Edens Hall, houses anextensive library. There are files of careers for every major that shows job requirements, occupationaloutlook, type of work and hiring institutions. There are also listings of opportunities in your chosencareer; including job description, salary, training needed and employment outlook. Listings of graduatestudent o p p o r t u n i t i e s showing scholarships and assistantships which are available at manyuniversities throughout the country are also available. "Employers now are not only looking for aprospective employe with a degree and an interest in a field, they are looking for one with a provendegree of competence," he said. The center is set up to help students in three stages, beginning withtheir sophomore year. The first stage, career planning, should begin in the first part of the sophomoreyear, when most people are establishing their majors. Center personnel are available to work withstudents on their description and rationale. â€”has Buckland forward his contract to the dean of Western for submission to the Academic Council for approval. â€”must send copies of the approved contract toBuckland, chairman of the student major committee, and the chairmans of the departments concerned.â€”completes course work. Any changes in the program require prior approval. â€”secures certification of the completion of his major from the chairman of the major committee on all three copies of thecontract. â€”makes sure the program and title of the degree are correct and that the committee copy isforwarded to the registrar's office at the time of the final degree evaluation. Thus far, one person hasgraduated in his designed major and nine students have had their programs approved by the AcademicCouncil. At least five others are going before the council early this quarter.. Another twenty are involvedcareer plans. Use of the library of job descriptions and job counseling are available. "This stagecontinues through the sophomore and junior year," Lallas said. The second stage begins the firstquarter of the senior year. This is when a student is phasing out of his college program and actuallyseeking a job. At this time, a student should come into the center and formally register. This meansthat he will establish a set of placement credentials. This is actually a resume file to use in support ofany job applications, now and later. Once a student has established credentials, he is eligible to takepart in the campus recruiting program and the job notification program. "Once registered we can assisthim in the skills necessary to find a job," Lallas said. The third stage of the program involves the services to Western's alumni. "Western's placement service is available to graduates the rest of their lives,"Lallas said. This is one reason why he encourages students to register during their senior year.Graduates may always activate their credential file to use in seeking new jobs or promotions. It is a lifelong record file and can be sent to any prospective employer or used as support information for entrance into graduate school. Tuesday, October 3, 1972 in the University Year for Action (UYA) program whichhas the same contract and p r o c e d u r e s as the faculty-student designed major program. The onlydifference is that UYA provides students with an opportunity to work off campus for credit and salary.UYA is handled through the Center for Continuing Studies. Because the student designing his ownmajor is involved with several academic departments and not just one, several problems may exist,Buckland says. In every department pre-requisites are required before the student can take certainupper division courses. A student that designs his major to include courses from several departments isrequired to take all of the pre-requisitesâ€”the same as any department major. Buckland pointed out that one junior who did not figure p r e - r e q u i s i t e s into his Western Front 7 programming had to take200 more credits to graduate from Western. Buckland advises students to write their contracts whilelooking at the pre-requisites so they will know what they're up against. Students should also allow foralternatives in case they change their program. Another problem is that the student does not have aregular degree as outlined in the college catalogue so he /may have a problem getting into a setvocational field. However, Buckland said that although he may have to explain his major to a prospective employer, the student may be at an advantage if he can explain his major well. One thing studentsmust remember is that they should start designing their major as early as possible in their collegecareer. A student is not allowed to apply more than 50 per cent of previously taken credits to hisstudent-designed major. An extensive project to monitor the campaign spending of candidates forWashington state congressional seats has been launched by Common Cause, the national citizens'lobby. The effort responds to the passage of the Federal Election Campaign Act which went into effectin April 1972. The law requires every candidate for federal office to file a report with the Secretary of State and the clerk of the House of Representatives or the Secretary of the Senate in Washington, D.C. Thereports must list all contributions over $100 along with the name, address and place of business of eachcontributor. Common Cause monitoring units have been organized in each of the seven districts inWashington state and a state unit has been established to maintain liaison with the Secretary of State.Dispatch reports are sent to each Common Cause team. Thirteen firms begin interviews Thirteen topbusiness firms or related organizations begin career interviews Oct. 6 on campus. They will continuethrough Dec. 6 conducted by the Arts and Science Division of the Career Planning and PlacementCenter. Graduates and prospective graduates are urged to file their credentials with the Placement Center to be eligible for the on-campus interviews.

All films will be shown in the Fairhaven Auditorium at 7,9 and 11 p.m. on Wednesdays. The first film, "8] /2," p r o b a b l y deserves the classification of "artfilm" more than most so-called art films. The movie is art. It's also a wild, joyous ride where fantasy andreality become impossible to tell apart. Italian director Fellini ("Fellini Satyricon") made a movie aboutan Italian movie director making a movie. Fellini is enough of a genius to make it work. Admittedlyautobiographical, "8V2" concerns Guido Anselmi (Marcello Mastroianni ), a director so unsure of himself that he is unable to work. Guido retreats into fantasy and memory to escape reality. He did me wrong!" By doing so, he is able to put his life in order and get on with the task at hand. The movie is full ofstriking and unexpected visual images. Guido's audience with an elderly cardinal takes on aspects of adescent into hell, clouds of steam and old people in shroud-like towels create an infernal atmosphere.Fellini's view of the duality of womenâ€”saint and virtue,, corruption and sinâ€”is carried through themovie. Guido's wife dresses completely in white, except for black-rimmed glasses; his mistress wearsblack, save for a white fur hat and cuffs. Fellini has made a film and in doing so produced a work of art."8V^" directed by Federico Fellini. Italy, 1963. Marcello Mastroianni, Claudia Cardinale.

Huxley gets $ 3 0 , 0 0 0 grant OnElection Day Miniature Refrigerator by BOB SPEED Huxley College of Environmental Studies receiveda $30,000 grant this year from the Environmental Education Department of the Office of Education for itsenvironmental education programs. John Miles, director of the Center for Environmental Education, abranch of HUKIP.V since its inception three years ago, said the money will be used for variousenvironmental programs already in progress and for new programs and reference materials. Theenvironmental education program began three years ago with a pilot project at the Sedro Woolley Schooldistrict. The project was designed to help educators revise the school system toward what Miles calls a"critical curriculum" emphasizing the environmental aspects of all classes throughout the communityschools. Last year Huxley organized this experiment and others into the Center for EnvironmentalEducation, which was founded with the goal of giving educators in all fields basic environmentalknowledge. The center staff feel that all educators should be ecologically aware and that this knowledgeshould be a basic part of their training. "We want to explore methods of training environmentaleducators," Miles said, "with the eventual goal that environmental education should become synonymous with education." To achieve this Huxley has offered seminars to educators for the past two summers inthe continuing education program. This summer about 25 teachers were instructed "in an attempt tocreate dynamic change in the direction of education," according to Miles. With this background, arequest for a grant of $60,000 was submitted to the Office of Education. The grant for $30,000 will mean a revision of Huxley's goals. However, the grant does allow for some expansion. Two new facultymembers have been added to Huxley's staff. James Swan from the University of Michigan School ofNatural Resources has already joined the program and Jack Everitt from the University of Georgia willstart winter quarter. Part of their job will be to continue and augment the Environmental EducationCenter's community continuing education programs, and take Huxley's ideas to the community. Thegrant money will be used for community workshops to further this goal. It will also be used by the HuxleyEnvironmental Reference Bureau (H.E.R.B.), for publicity to make people aware of the existence of thecommunity workshops, a newsletter for teachers and others interested in Huxley's progress. It will alsocontribute some in-state travel money for people involved in workshops. Environmental education is oneof the most popular of the seven concentrations offered at Huxley, all of which deal with one generalaspect of environmental studies ranging from the natural sciences to social and health sciences. ; s f s ^ | cooooooooeccoooooooocoecoocooot For more information call 301-656-5770 [SPECIFICATIONS: 2.2cubic feet. 18 high, 191/2 wide, 18" deep Freezer compartment. 2 large ice cube trays furnished with unit(will| hold up to four) I * Noiseless â€¢ Trouble Free â€¢ 5-year guarantee on compressor MINI REFRIGUNLIMITED 4405 East-West Highway â€¢ Suite 210 â€¢ Bethesda, Md. 20014 Enclosed is check ormoney order for $ Allow 10 days for delivery. â€¢ Rental Plan - $55 $20 refundable deposit (Total $75 aschool year) Q Sales Plan - $79.95 No shipping charges on either plan.

'â€¢'â€¢Hl 'r*: gt;T Tuesday, October 3, 1972 Western Front r We want your car The streets arefull and the parking lots are empty. The safety and security department wants to know why. Somepeople say $18 per quarter is too much to pay for a campus parking permit. To park for $18 for 10 weeks figures out to 36 cents per day. To park in the downtown parkade all day (eight hours) costs 95 cents. Aparking fine costs $1. Where does the parking money go? The monies derived from parking fees is used to build new lots and improve existing ones, according to R. G. Peterson, director of safety and security for Western. The cost of a lot varies with the type. A gravel lot, such as 2A (near Higginson Hall) costs$150 per stall to build. A blacktop lot like 17A (near the Steam plant) costs $300 per stall. Lights andwheel stops are extra. The cost would be approximately $2,500 per stall if the college were to build acovered parking garage. Money left over after the costs of building and maintaining the parking lots isused to pay the costs of patrolling the lots to prevent thefts. Last year there was a $30,000 surplus in the parking fund. Peterson explained this surplus was a result of a lack of capital project construction lastyear. However, when the Mobile Village moves the land they have been occupying will be converted to apermanent parking lot. The cost of building that lot and improving others by adding lights will take awaythe surplus. Peterson, director of parking since 1968, has several improvements planned for the parkingsituation on campus. For example, there will be no more temporary lots built. College policy in the pasthas been to designate a future, building site as a parking lot until they are ready to build on it. A primeexample is lot 16B, a large gravel lot at the south end of campus. That lot is being abandoned this yearto allow construction of the new social sciences building. The benefit of having permanent lots is that the costs formerly used for building a lot, then tearing it apart while building another lot to take its place can be used instead to improve the permanent lots. The eventual goal of the parking committee is to makethe parking program self supporting. The surplus mentioned above represents the first year parking hasbeen in the black. Out of State Students fight non resident fees A group of University of Washingtonstudents have filed suit in U.S. Federal Court challenging the state's tuition law, as well as attempting torecover extra fees charged them as non-residents. The suit claims the laws violate constitutional rights to travel, to due process of the law and to equal protection of the laws under a state's jurisdiction. This ispart of a nationwide effort to strike down such laws. The 26 students from the Out of State Students(OSS) association seek a declaration that the requirement of one year in the state for residency statusand tuition is unconstitutional. A spokeswoman for OSS told the Front that the college's registrationoffice can require as many proofs of one year residency as they want. Such things as registering to voteand having a Washington State driver's license are criteria for becoming a resident. This type of evidence for residency is both arbitrary and irrelevant, OSS members claim. OSS attorney Pete Francis said thatthis revised code of Washington passed last spring, keeps the student from becoming a resident inWashington as long as the person is a student. Francis, also a state senator, was the only senator whovoted against the residence bill in the legislature. The OSS members also seek an injunction prohibitingthe University of Washington from charging higher tuition rates to non-residents than residents. In thesame suit, a woman seeks $5,000 in damages because she was denied admission after she could notpay the extra tuition resulting from her classification as a non-resident. The OSS also has several othersuits which they intend to file. One is for freshmen who are declared non-residents, another is for newstudents and transfers, and the last is for those people once declared non-residents but are nowresidents who wish to get back what they previously paid as non-residents. These types of suits arenothing new to this state. Last year, the state chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)considered taking two cases. One case aimed at attacking the one-year residence requirement. Theother case said the whole concept of non-resident tuition was unconstitutional by Article IV, section 11 of the constitution, which guarantees that one state will grant to citizens of another the same privileges and immunities as they themselves receive. The ACLU decided not to handle either case, when the OSSintentions became apparent last May, an ACLU spokesman said. The ACLU has agreed to act as'ameicus curiae' or friend of the court in the suit against the University of Washington by the OSSmembers.

Applications are now being taken at the Rising Sun, Bellingham's walk-in humanrelations center for the position of permanent director. Persons interested in applying for the directorshipor for a volunteer position on the staff should drop by the Rising Sun house at 309 Gladstone. Thehouse has been open since early June under Seth Joseph, one of the early originators of the project.Since funding for the temporary directorship has run out a primary job of the new director will be to findways of obtaining new funding which will also include paying his salary. Staff volunteers are not paid.The Rising Sun offers a 24 hour drop-in crisis center and telephone hot-line open to anyone who findshimself in a situation he can't handle, or just needs someone to talk to. The Sun also features a Flyingsquad that will go out into the community to aid persons in crisis situations if they feel they cannotcome to the house. Flying squad members are equipped with squad ID and are registered with, but notpart of the local authorities. I d e n t i f i c a t i o n cleared through the authorities protects squadmembers who might find themselves in a situation such as a party where they are helping someone on a bad trip and there is a danger of being busted.

Applications for both J-boards may be obtained at the dean of studentsoffice in Old Main, and should be submitted to that office by Monday, Oct. 16. New boards will beselected although there are some carry-over applications from spring quarter, C. W. McDonald, dean ofstudents said. Three students will be selected for the College J-board, and eight students for the I n t e r m e d i a t e All-Student J-board.

The center also receives c o o p e r a t i o n from the Bellingham police, the sheriff and St. Luke'sHospital. If a person who comes into the house needs to be taken to the emergency room formedication, to have his stomach pumped, or some kind of first aid which staff members cannot handle,an arrangement can be made with the doctor on duty so that he will not contact the police. Allexchanges between a client and staff members are confidential. Even if a person is referred to Western's counseling center, Mental Health Clinic, or another agency more equipped to handle a client on a long-term basis, information from the house cannot be given out without the written permission of the client.Staff volunteers receive a concentrated three to four week training course during which crisis interventionand drugs are covered extensively. Flying squad members go on to take a weekend marathon courseemphasizing specifically the type of crisis intervention work they are most apt to encounter outside ofthe house. Staff members are trying to keep the house open for at least a year to show the communitywhat they can do. The crisis line for the Rising Sun is 733-9211, non-crisis calls can be taken at 733-9212. Dirty-handed find lotsa jobs "If they don't mind getting their hands dirty, we've got jobs for them,"said C. T. Bensel, s t u d e n t housing and employment'commissioner. Although housing is in shortsupply, many part-time jobs are available. Bensel added, "Most of the jobs are in the 'general labor-noskills needed' category." According to Bensel many jobs are going unfilled because students don't wantto do menial labor. The pay scale generally runs between $2 and $2.50 an hour, but there are some live-in, babysitting and housekeeping jobs that provide free room and board. The student housing andemployment offices, located in the Viking Union 214a and 215, respectively, provide services forstudents only. This reduces the competition found off-campus. Bultmann named acting provost WilliamA. Bultmann, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, has been named acting provost for Western,replacing Frederick Sargent II.

The Vikings' Russ Fuller led the field with a time of 25:53. Following Fullerwere Western's Mike Shaw, Paul Scovel and John Sullivan. Puget Sound's Fred New placed fourth andWestern's Tom Duncan fifth. Western dominated the race placing five runners in the top six places.Scovel, Western's number three runner said the team ran together well and helped each other out duringthe race. "It's easier to run in. a group," Scovel said. "I got tired with about one and half miles to gobefore John and Tom caught up with me. We talk to each other encourage "each other to keep ongoing." "Winning a race depends a lot on teamwork," Scovel said. "When there is a group around youthey break the wind for you and it is easier to run. When you are by yourself, you break the wind byyourself and it is more tiring." Intramurals Now is the time to sign up for men's and women's intramuralflag football teams. Teams are now being formed and interested students are invited to pick up forms atthe Intramural Office in Carver Gym 112. Last year there were 56 men's teams.

Johnson, sports editor Western's football team had somepretty tough breaks in their 28-14 loss to archrival Central. The Viking offense could not manage to keepthe football out of the hands of the Central defense. Five times Marshall Torre was intercepted, and threeof those times the interception resulted in a touchdown drive. The first interception occurred in the firstquarter when the Vik's held a 7-0 lead. The Big Blue had driven down to the Central 11 yard line. Fromthere Torre called a pass play. Torre rifled the ball to his intended receiver Gary Aagard but before Aagardcould get his hands on it, a Central defender picked it off and ran for a touchdown. The question asked by the fans at Civic Field was why did Torre call for a pass when the running game had worked so effectivelyup to that point? Boyde Long, head football coach, said if we knew the answer to that we would begeniuses. "The play he called just didn't work," Long said. "If it had worked, it would have been great, butit didn't and was returned for the score. That's just the way life is. You have to gamble once in a while.That particular time the gamble didn't pay off." Long was pleased with the first half of play but thought histeam should have had a 21-0 lead. Many people who attended the game woud would probably haveagreed with him. The Viks looked good the first half, with the defense doing an admirable job incontaining the potent Central offensive unit. The defense bent during the first half, but never broke. Thesecond half, mainly the fourth quarter, is where mistakes finally did the Vikings in. Torre was interceptedthree times during the second half and two of those interceptions cost the Big Blue a touchdown scoredagainst them several plays later. A defensive unit can only take so much of an offense like Central's andthe Western defense finally succumbed. Torre completed eight out of 16 passes for the evening. The only drawback was that Central caught five of them. Aside from that, Torre moved the Big Blue well and hadCentral's back to the wall on more than one occasion. Maybe Central will get a couple of bad breakssome day. If the Viks win the rest of their conference games, and Long believes they will, and if Centralcan get dumped twice along the way, the Big Blue can repeat as champions. Judging from Central'spotent offense and stringent defense, it appears unlikely. A few minutes after the third quarter had beenunderway, flankerback Cecil Simms of Western left the field. He was not injured but just walked off. Ahalf an hour later he was spotted sitting in the crowd with his street clothes on. Long explained that theteam was very keyed up, Simms more so than the rest. Simms got a little overemotional and left the field. Simms was unavailable for comment after the game. Long said that Simms was expected to return topractice yesterday. Long is not disappointed over his team's two losses and explains that it wasWestern's misfortune that they had to play two good teams so early in the season. He feels that his team can win every other game they have scheduled if they want to. The only other teams that have a realchance of dumping the Viks are Oregon College of Education and Eastern Washington. Whatever theresult of the 1972 season, Western is no pushover. Ask the players of Central. Better yet, ask the Vikings themselves. ^^K^^*^^^ ^^^*#^^^^^ ^*^1#Â¥ ^^i V *^*^^ ^^fiV* ^^JiV1* ^* ^0 ^^f^e* **i^iVi^ * * â€¢ Classifieds ** i MISC.

ThornSchultz photo by O. K. JOHNSON Five costly interceptions, coupled with the running and passing ofJohn Coen and R. J. Williams, dimmed Western's hopes of an Evergreen Conference title repeat asCentral stopped the Vikings 28-14 Saturday night. Central battled back from a 14-7 half time deficit toscore 21 fourth quarter points on three sustained drives, two of which were set up by interceptions.Coen and Williams frustrated the Viking defense as Coen passed for 162 yards, while Williams rushedand caught passes for 174 yards. Coen withstood the Big Blues' pass rush time and again as hecompleted 60 per cent of his passes. Western drew first blood, driving 78 yards in 12 plays with SteveSkogmo diving one yard for the touchdown. The Viks held the Wildcats and were off and running againwith Skogmo and Tom Wigg handling the ball carrying assignments. On a second down and sevensituation, from the Central 11, Marshall Torre threw a pass that was intended for Gary Aagard. TheWildcats' Pat Maki stepped in front of Aagard and rambled unmolested 102 yards for the touchdown.Then it was the Viking's turn to capitalize on an interception. But, the Big Blue was unable to move theball and Central took over. Coen dropped back to pass and Western's Randy Cline picked off the pass at midfield. Western struck paydirt four New intramural head Dick Bartsch, Western's new intramuraldirector, is open to new ideas in the intramural program. Bartsch, who comes to Western from theUniversity of Oregon, is in the process of setting up intramural football teams for men and women, twotypes of cross country races and badminton and volleyball with coed teams as well as men andwomen's teams. "We want a more equitable program for intramurals with the emphasis more on womenthan in past years," Bartsch said. "In the past, women's intramurals were scheduled after everythingelse," Bartsch said. "They were not given as much emphasis. I feel that they should be offered asindicated by student interest. By offering more sports to women, and some sports coed where it isfeasible, I anticipate increased participation by women," he said. Women this fall will be offered powderpuff football, a sport that did not exist last year except when one dorm would challenge another. Menand women will also be offered/Jbad.mip.ton, .and ,both will have volleyball. Both sports havepossibilities of being coed. Two types of cross country will be offered. The standard race is the all-outdistance race, where the first one across the line is the winner, and the team that scores the fewestpoints is the winning team. The other type of cross country Bartsch wants to set up is a run forpredicted time. In this race, the person who comes closest to running his estimated time is the winner.This gives those persons who are not outstanding runners a chance to win. Runners have a chance torun over the course the day before the race. The cross country races will be run before Thanksgiving with the winners receiving turkeys as prizes. Other sports planned on an informal basis will be handball and racketball. "We are trying to increase student activities and trying to get the students involved,"Bartsch said. "I'm going to do my best to get the programs the students want. I'm always open tonew.ideas..".'..Â« gt; .â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ .â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ plays later with a 39 yardscoring strike from Torre to Jasmer. The Big Blue took a seven point lead into the locker room. It takestwo halves to make a game. While the Viks won the first half 14-7, Central clobbered the home team inthe second half 21-0. In the third quarter, Western appeared on the way to another touchdown afterstopping Central on three successive downs. Torre drove the Big Blue down to the Central eight beforethe Wildcat defense stiffened. Jay Overway's field goal attempt was short and Western's scoring threatwas halted. With 4:05 remaining in the quarter, Central's pass defense snared another one of Torre'saerials and 25 seconds into the final frame scored their second touchdown. The two point conversionfailed and the Vik's held on to a slim 14-13 lead. That lead was short-lived, however, the next timeCentral got the ball. Six plays and 80 yards later, Coen scored from one yard out. Western'sdesperation drive was snuffed out by another pass interception which Central converted into a touchdown five plays later. Williams scored from 16 yards out. With eight seconds remaining in the contest, Torrewas intercepted for the final time. For Western, it was their second loss in as many starts while it wasthe third straight victory for Central. Western's first loss was a 28-13 drubbing by Pacific University inOregon. Western held a slight edge in total yards 370 to 364. Both teams had 20 first downs. Central'sCoen kept the Viking defense guissing as he engineered 10 first downs by rushing and 10 by passing.Western got 18 first downs by running and only two via the air route. The key to Central's win wascapitalizing on interceptions. Skogmo and Wigg both had good nights for the Big Blue Skogmo rushedfor 153 yards and Wigg for 151.

With the aid of a few thousand pounds of microorganisms, we're helping to solvethe water pollution problem in Rochester. Maybe the solution can help others. What we did was tocombine two processes in a way that gives us one of the most efficient water-purifying systems privateindustry has ever developed. One process is called "activated sludge,''' developed by man to acceleratenature's microorganism adsorption. What this means is that for the majority of wastes man can produce,there is an organism waiting somewhere that will happily assimilate it. And thrive on it. The breakthroughcame when Kodak scientists found a way to combine the activated sludge process with a trickling filterprocess and optimized the combination. We tested our system in a pilot plant for five years. (At Kodak,we were working on environmental improvement long before it made headlines.) And the pilot projectworked so well, we built a ten-million-dollar plant that can purify 36-million gallons of water a day.Governor Rockefeller called this "the biggest voluntary project undertaken by private industry in supportof New York State's pure-water program." Why did we do it? Partly because we're in business to make a profitâ€”and clean water is vital to our business. JBut in furthering our own needs, we have helped furthersociety's. And our business depends on society. We hope our efforts to cope with water pollution willinspire others to do the same. And, we'd be happy to share our water-purifying information with them. Weall need clean water. So we all have to work together. Kodak More than a business.

Already labeled "obscure"by a number of faculty, including a majority ot department chairmen, the Curriculum Commission'scontroversial report calls for a number of changes: â€¢â€”Abolishment of departments in favor -of areaconcentrations based on the "Concerns of Man." â€¢-Changing the college from the quarter system to aunique 4-1-4 semester plan to save money and allow longer study sessions. â€¢â€”Reduction in thenumber of course offerings from the present 2,700 courses down to approximately 1,400â€”giving eachfull-time faculty member no more than three courses to instruct per semester. â€¢-Abolishment of theABCDF grading system and implementation of a "distinction," "credit," "no credit" plan which would allow students to drop out of any course without penalty up to and including the final day of classes. â€¢â€”Asharp increase in admission requirements for graduate school, and a moratorium on development of newdoctoral programs. â€¢â€”Elimination of final examination weeks to allow students and faculty time forother educational pursuits. College President Charles Flora called the report "perhaps the most important and far-reaching" proposal ever to come before the college. He is giving members of City Delays PeaceMarch Permit Approval - Story Page 7 the college community until May 1 to respond to the report.During May, Flora says he will consider the various feedback and then personally prepare a final draft tobe submitted to the Board of Trustees at a public session in June or July. Some faculty and studentssay that Flora is not giving them enough time to carefully evaluate the report, and others have criticizedFlora's apparent intent to personally draft the final document for presentation to the trustees withoutpermitting the community to review it beforehand. The president, in a letter accompanying the Curriculum Commission report, said he does not want the document to become "lost in an interminable morass ofdiscussion." The commission was charged last May to recommend better and less costly ways ofcarrying forward the instructional programs of the college. The 14-member committee, which includedseven students chosen informally from the student body, was headed by College Provost FrederickSargent-a former administrator at the University of Wisconsin at Green Bay, where a number of innovative curricular programs have been piloted in recent years. Sargent says he thinks that a pervasive curricular reorganization with a new focus on the broad theme, the Concerns of Man, will restore adaptability to the educational process.

Nineteen terminations become effective at the end of spring quarter, while theremaining seven will be terminated during the summer. Listed to be released effective at the end ofspring quarter are: Barry Drost and Jay Steele, lecturers in art; James L. Macmillan, lecturer inchemistry; Forrest R. Allred, lecturer in education. Robert Carlton, instructor of English; Philip E. Miller,lecturer at Fairhaven; Mary B. Crane and Gunter Stoltz, lecturers in foreign languages; James Haratani;and Don C. Wilson, lecturers in geography; Connie H. Crowley, lecturer in geology. Roger N. Hammill,lecturer in history; Leo Maki, lecturer in mathematics; Wanda Robertson, lecturer in music; MargeretHerz, Peter Kotzer and William Toews, lecturers in physics; and Richard J. Plaisance, lecturer, andLeonard F. See, instructor in technology. List to be released during the summer are: Glen R. Albaugh,associate professor of men's physical education; Nick A. Callen, instructor and catalog librarian;Elizabeth M. Henzl, lecturer in geography. Robert Jones and George R. "Landrum, lecturers inphilosophy; Hazel C. Peterson, associate professor of physical education for women; and Lawrence E.Vance, associate professor of men's physical education. Directors of both teaching and non-teachingpersonnel branches remain "optimistic" concerning future manpower cutbacks at Western. FilLeanderson, personnel officer, said his office is currently recruiting for seven non-teaching positions. They include four clerical jobs, an electrical engineer, a campus security marshal and a gardener.Leanderson said a threat of possible layoffs has created a low turn-over rate, but it would be precipitousto anticipate any actual cutbacks and premature to start actual streamlining until the state legislaturetakes final action. He does not expect that action will come until the final days of the legislative session. "It is unfair to look at the darkest side," he said. "We do not know if, or how many" personnel cutbackswill occur. He said trying to guess what the legislature will do would be "pure speculation" that wouldcreate "too much unrest and uneasiness in the staff." Streamlining occurs regularly to make a moreeffective staff, he said, but he would not say that a major reorganization caused by budget cutbackswould reduce the services provided by staff personnel. "Let's just say it would be different," he said.Provost Frederick Sargent II explained that 12 of the 26 faculty terminations were necessary because the legislature cut two and one-half per cent from state financial support of faculty-staff at Western. Thecutback represented 18 teaching positions, but only 12 teachers were released because normal turn-over and resignations accounted for the other positions. He said some departments simply stoppedrecruitment, or just didn't start. The individual departments decided who would be released, he said. Thereduction in teachers is not critical, but Sargent said: "If we suffer further cutbacks, the problem will bevery different. However, I am optimistic that we won't suffer any cutbacks of that proportion." Financialpruning is not unique to Western, according to Sargent. "Higher education is in considerable troublenationally," he said. "This was caused by too rapid an expansion in the '60's." He also said that studentuprisings and a shuffling of priorities by state governments has contributed to the cutbacks. Meanwhile,Western may still be faced with additional cutbacks. Sargent said that the Senate AppropriationsCommittee has recommended reductions totaling $600,000. This would probably result in salary freezingor salary cuts on a sliding scale according to income. Purchase of new library books would probably becurtailed, and less money would be available for disadvantaged students. % Faculty Union ProtestsTermination of Positions A union of Western faculty members has petitioned the Board of Trustees tocancel termination orders of 18 faculty positions. Raymond R. McLeod, president of the FacultyProfessional Union and chairman of the Physics Department, told the Trustees Friday in Olympia that the terminations were "premature and discriminatory against first-year faculty." College President Charles J.Flora ordered the terminations last month in the wake of a state legislature decision to reduce the facultyformula by 2.5 per cent. McLeod, backed by J. Kay Faulkner, assistant professor of economics, askedthe Trustees to "develop and recommend procedures for layoff of faculty in case of future budget cuts."The purpose of the recommendations would be to clarify the position of faculty members who have beennotified of termination," McLeod said. "Now there is no guarantee that a faculty member will be rehired oreven considered for rehiring if the budget cuts aren't made." College policy requires that notification bemade by March 15 if faculty members are not going to be rehired for the next year. In the presentsituation, termination notices were made in an attempt to beat the deadline Vet President: Lt. CalleyGuilty without knowing what the budget condition would be, McLeod said. There is no indication whethertermination are being made for lack of money or whether the faculty are being summarily dismissed, hesaid. "People have the i
