Three members of the task force voted to remove the current policy and replace it with acampus-wide bicycle ban and three members voted to continue the probation of the current policy untilthe end of December 1997. One member, acting parking and transportation manasger Carl Root,abstained from voting. George Pierce, vice president of Business and Financial Affairs' arid co-chair ofthe task force, said previously he would determine Western's bicycle policy based on the task force'srecommendations. However, because of the stalemate, Pierce said he would decide the outcome ofthe campus' bicycle dismount policy. Pierce, a non-voting member on the task force, has authoritythrough the Washington Administrative Code to make all decisions about bicycle dismount policies atthe university. After he talked to the President's Council, an advisory body made up of vice presidentsand senior level members at Western., and members of the old Bicycle Task Force, Pierce said he would make a decision about the policy by next week. Pierce said at this point, he hasn't made up his mindabout either policy. "I'm walking right down the middle of the road on this one," Pierce said. The currentpolicy, under probation since January 1, mandates that students must dismount their bikes 15 minutesbefore the hour and 15 minutes after the hour between the red brick areas, from 7:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m.Monday through Friday. A complete bicycle ban would restrict bike riding in the red brick areas from7:45 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. on class days. " " ":'" â€¢' Any new bicycle policy would take affect thebeginning of summer quarter, Pierce said. Some task force members supported and others opposedcontinuing the current policy because the number of students who dismounted their bicyclesduring spring quarter dropped from winter quarter. The group also disagreed on the effectiveness of thetask force's bicycle code education campaign. Greg Kuhn, Associated Students representative to theHealth and Safety See Bike, page 3 Washington Student Lobby finishes year of lobbying By BrianKingsberry The Western Front The 1997 legislative session has finally come to a close and severalchanges have helped depict a reasonably positive outlook for Western students in the future. Tuitionincreases remained reasonably low for most classes of students (4 percent), financial aidappropriations increased by nearly $30 million within the next biennium, access to higher education wasexpanded by nearly 7,000 enrollments, pre-paid tuition is now a reality and several punitive measuresdesigned to punish students with excess credits were defeated. While several proposals students havesupported may not have passed (students on governing boards, for one), overall this was anothersuccessful legislative session for students. Of the several bills that passed at the 55th Legislature,Senate bill 5927, House bill 1372 and House bill 2259 are several that will have the most impact onWestern's student body in the future. Senate bill 5927 is a bill that has had many incarnations during thecourse of the legislative session., and WSL did their best to make this bill as student friendly aspossible. The final version of the bill included an across the board 4 percent tuition increase forresident undergraduates, but also removed provisions that would have penalized students fortaking excess credits and implemented a $375,000 scholarship program for needy and deservingstudents. "I think that with inflation like it is, a 4 percent tuition increase is a reasonable amount," juniorGary Tolle-fson said. "Of course, you'd like to pay less, but there has to be some kind of compromisewe can all agree upon." House bill 1372 is a pre-paid tuition bill that will pass into law this year. This billwill allow parents and prospective students the ability to buy "tuition units" from the state, locking intoday's tuition prices for tomorrow's tuitions. WSL has supported this bill in the past and considers it amajor victory for anyone working to increase access and affordability in our state's higher educationsystem. The budget bill (House bill 2259) has included $350,000 in seed money to get this programgoing. "I think having the opportunity for prepaid tuition will be beneficial to students who work in orderto pay their way through college," junior Kathy Jansen said. "This program gives students theopportunity to take advantage of the tuition units that they've purchased when they finally entercollege." The operating budget, as passed by the legislature on April 27, included several changes. Oneof these changes is a State Need Grants increase to fund families with incomes at 45 percent of thestate median income and a funding increase of 24 million for the biennium. Also added is a work study increase instrumental in serving approximately 3,000 new students. Another important issue included inthe operating budget is a 3 percent faculty salary increase for each year of the next biennium. Thisincrease will allow each campus to have a pool of money available to retain and recruit top faculty. Inaddition, tuition revenue may be used for optional faculty salary increases. "I think giving teachers apay increase is a good thing," junior Joel Chatterson said. "Paying teachers more money helpsmaintain the quality of teachers here at Western. Good teachers are important because they inspirestudents to become doctors and See WSL, page 8 ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 2 ---------- THE WESTERN FRONT â€¢ 2 J\EwVS June 3. 1997 Campus Police May 30,11:40 p.m.: A PierceCounty stop sign was recovered in the Higginson Hall area.

Western Briefs compiled by Amy King Hit-and-run didn't keep dog down By Sara Buckwitz The Western Front Ryan, the puppy who was hit by a car on the evening of May 21on Indian Street near Laurel Park, is alive and playing in the park again. Per Johnson was playingultimate frisbee with his friends in the park at the time of the incident. He gave the dog support andhelped look for the person's car that hit the dog, Johnson said the veterinarian attributed the bloodcoming from the dog's mouth to a bit tongue. The dog also had a sprained ankle. The veterinarianprescribed antibiotics for the dog. Seven people, who were witness to the accident, wrote a letter to the editor, which appeared in last Friday's issue of The Front. These seven people weren't the onlyones at the park when the dog was hit; other people helped after the dog hit and left in the street. "I was impressed with the people who where there to help with the dog. All of them contributed greatly. Youcould tell that they all cared," he said. so aw*?

Fourteen- year-old Triffina De-Angelo and 13-year-old Tracy Thompson were killed early Sundayas they walked home from their eighth-grade graduation party. Authorities say they have no suspectsbut are looking for a vehicle with severe front-end damage from the crash. The vehicle that struck thegirls was traveling in the opposite direction as the youngsters. A passerby found the girls' bodies in aditch shortly before 6 a.m. Couple cover themselves with only an umbrella LONG VIEW â€” We nowknow why the couple was walking on a downtown Longview street wearing not much more than anumbrella. Police say the two were drunk Sunday, and the man had lost a bet. To pay it off, he had towalk from a gas station to the Hudson Hotel in the nude. The woman told police she stripped down toher underwear to keep him company. They were cited for lewd conduct. National Florida retireesexposed with pinup calendar PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. â€” There's no air-brushing away the wrinkles onthese pin-up models. The youngest one is 70. The Bike, from page 1 Committee and member of thetask force, said he observed 483 bike riders during spring quarter at specific locations on campus. Fifty-nine percent dismounted from their bicycles, or six out of 10 students walked their bikes during therestricted time period. Kuhn reported 29 percent of students who did not dismount rode slowly and 12percent rode too fast. During winter quarter, Kuhn recorded 73 percent of students walked theirbicycles, or seven out of 10 dismounted between classes. According to Kuhn's report, from winter tospring quarter, the number of students in compliance with the current bicycle code declined by 14percent. The task force did not establish a percentage that would indicate a high success rate for thecurrent policy. Kuhn said fast riders caused the greatest safety concern of all bikers, and theirnumbers had remained constant since last quarter. However, before the 15- minute policy wasimplemented, fast riders ranged from 25 to 30 percent of bikers on campus, Kuhn said. "The (current)code has made a difference with people who are the greatest safety hazard," Kuhn said. Studentscomplied more often with the dismount times when campus security were present, Kuhn said. "I feel ifsecurity were out there, if there was significant patrolling, there would be better compliance," Kuhn said. Chief of University Police Doug Gill said he believes more students would follow the dismount policy ifmore security were available, but he said he didn't have the resources to increase adherence to thebike policy. "It's difficult with the current manpower to do it. With class scheduling, it's difficult to get(student security) at that time of day," Gill said. April Markiewicz, task force member and researchtechnologist supervisor for Huxley's Institute of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, said 59percent was unacceptable and senior-citizen models are residents at the Royal Palm RetirementCentre in Port Charlotte, Fla. They range in age from 70 to 95, and they grace the complex's 1998calendar. Last year's calendar netted $4,000 for a hardship fund for the residents. The models saythey have some fun, too.

Courtsrejected appeal of HIV infected soldier SUPREME COURT â€” The Supreme Court has rejected theappeal of an HIV-infected former soldier imprisoned for having unprotected sex with his wife. The soldierclaimed the Army violated his marital privacy rights by ordering him to wear a condom duringintercourse. T he soldier's wife and another woman had filed complaints against him saying he never told them of his condition and had unprotected sex with them. Carinel Pritchard Junior was court-martialedat Fort Drum, New York in 1993 and was found guilty of willfully disobeying the safe-sex order. He also was found guilty of aggravated assault against his wife for not wearing a condom and of oral sodomywith another woman. International Cattle rustlers kill many people from rival tribe KAMPALA, Ugandaâ€” A new ethnic bloodshed is in Africa â€” this time in Uganda. A Ugandan newspaper, "New Vision,"reports rustlers killed 76 people from a rival tribe last week in northeastern Uganda and stole theircattle herds. Among the dead were 50 children. Cattle rustling has been a way of life in the region, but a few deaths in the past because only bows and arrows were used. Russians told to look for fake vodkaafter many die MOSCOW â€” Russians are being warned to watch out for fake vodka. Police in Moscow have seized a freight train packed with 240,000 bottles of fake vodka made from industrial alcohol. InSiberia, a total of 22 people have died since Friday from drinking fake alcohol. Police say the fakebooze smells like alcohol but tastes like rubber. AP Wire compiled by Nicky Loi showed the currentpolicy wasn't working. AS Vice President for Student Life and co-chair of the bicycle task force J.P.Elliott said he felt 73 percent compliance during winter quarter was significant and education was needed to ensure students continued to follow the policy.

"I don't feel students' excuses that they don't know the (policies) are goodones. We've educated the students and they should know," Markiewicz said. Elliott said he thoughtmembers on the task force believed that constantly educating students was difficult and it was toomuch work. Policy education needs to become part of the process, but it won't without more support,Elliott said. "It hasn't become part of (campus) culture. We haven't given (students) the chance," Elliott said. Although some group members stressed more education for students on the current policy,others said another education campaign would not teach enough students to comply with the currentbicycle code. "We're talking about a lot more effort and more money for the privilege of students to ridebetween classes. It's a lot of work, from my viewpoint," Markiewicz said. "As an employee here, I stilldon't really see that its working. There has to be a point where we have to say it's not working,"Markiewicz said. "There's not a single bicyclist out there who doesn't know the rules ... I don't thinkmore education will work. I don't buy the argument that (a complete ban) is an inconvenience forbikers. I don't believe (student opposition) overrides the safety of the entire campus," said Rudi Weiss,foreign language professor and task force member. Root gave several reasons for his abstention fromthe final vote. Root said his job is to encourage alternative forms of transportation, such as bikeriding, but his objective is to also make the campus more safe. The vote would make him choose oneside over the other, Root said. Weiss, Markiewicz and Gayle Shipley, director of environmental health and safety, opposed extending the probation of the current policy until December 1997. Gill, Elliott andKuhn supported probation of the current policy. Three students who served on the Bicycle Task Forceand were invited to vote with the Policy Task Force, did not attend the meeting.

By Michelle Rennie The WesternFront A photography exhibit entitled "Out and About on Campus" opens today and runs until Friday June 6 in the main lounge of Fairhaven College; an opening reception will be tonight at 7 p.m. The exhibit of17 photographs and autobiographical captions of lesbian, gay and bisexual students and faculty fromWashington state universities and colleges, is the research work of five Western Cultural Anthropologyseniors. "The people in the photos submitted the images. It's the way they see themselves and the waythey wish to be seen," organizer Jen Rho said. 'They also wrote their own captions." Titles of allphotographs are the first names of the people shown. "By displaying this exhibit, we hope to raise public awareness and understanding of LGB (lesbian gay bisexual) issues arid to help break down negativestereotypes, which are harmful to everyone," the introduction to the exhibit states. Some photographsare posed stills, others looked like vacation snapshots, while one captioned "Katherine" is a creativerepresentation of the subject. The caption for "Katherine" reads, "I love the human body; in my mind, it isthe most beautiful metaphor for human experience- male, female, huge, tiny, wide, wrinkled, jiggling in laughter or shaking with sobs â€” it tells you something about the person inside." Dennis' photo showsa neatly-dressed man sitting under a tree near some tulips. His caption states he is 45 yearsand a staffmember at Western. "I'm happy to be part of an academic community because I realize that onlyknowledge will ever overcome the prejudices and fears that lie at the hear of ignorance," his captionreads. Darci, a sophomore at Fairhaven, submitted a photo of herself and a friend. Her caption reads,"[she] plans on becoming a human rights lawyer specializing in advocating for the gay and women'scommunities." Two of the students compiling the exhibit are also subject matter. Kim Saito, one of the organizers, submitted1 a-photo of herself on the beach. In'h'e'pau'tb'biogra-phy,'â€¢' she states she isbisexual.' When asked if being a part of the exhibit was going to be difficult for her, she answered, "partof me wants to be part of the work, part of me wants to be objective." Jason Siperly is the other memberof the exhibit organizers who donated a photo of himself for the exhibit. Siperly is the coordinator ofthe Lesbian Gay Bisexual Alliance at Western. By Jim Morrell III The Western Front After the recentannouncement that the lower weight room in Carver Gym known as "the Cage" will no longer be free tostudents, Associated Students is raising quesi-tons as to what is to be done with the recreationalfacilities for the future. "We (AS staff) met with the faculty to discuss the issue and understood why they had to close down the weight room," AS President Leslie Keller said Sunday. "This is just a sign of amuch bigger problem," said J.P. Elliot, AS vice president for Student Life. A new recreationalfacility is what the AS is ultimately after. After being notified of the cage's "absorption" intoParberry Gym, the AS immediately put out petitions for a new facility. Elliot said what the AS wants isa multi-recreational facility that can be used for people outside Western athletics. There are currentlythree different groups using Carver Gym; Physical Education Health and Recreation department, campusrecreation and the athletic program. What the AS wants is something that any student can use,anytime, for free, whether it is for basketball or to go run track, without having to worry about beingkicked out by the basketball team having practice. "A new campus recreation facility has been on theagenda for a long time now, but everytime it goes to Olympia it always gets shot down," Elliot said. -"The issue comes up a lot and what was really lacking was student voice. I feel with the petitions wehave going around now we are creating awareness that this situation needs to be dealt with," he said.After a recent survey taken by Western in October 1996 on on-campus facilities, it seems that studentsare not pleased with what was offered on campus. One survey pointed out that 27 percent A newcampus relt;0atiq0 facility has b^^pn Â§^agenda for a long time now, but everytime it goes to Olympia it always gets shot down. ^ â€” Lejtie Keifer president oj the Associated Students of the studentpopulation rated "... how well Western's facilities met their needs" as "poor" and another 40 percent rated it as "fair." When asked about facilities on campus, Western junior Donny Legge said, "I have used the facilities (free ones) on campus a few times, and I didn't think they were all that great. There were hardlyany free-weights. It was all nautilus equipment, very outdated and it was always crammed with people."Sophomore Emily Lesch said, "I used to love going to the cage ... I hate going up to Parberry. I feel so intimidated by all those huge people working out next to me." When asked about other facilitieson campus, like the Ridgeway facility, Lesch said, "They suck. I don't like those machines at all."What we want to do is raise the issue (for a new facility) now so our successors will keep bringing it upnext year to make more progress," Keller said. "We have got lots of petitions out right now and hopefully students will return them to keep things moving along," Keller said. Marie Sather, director of CampusRecreation, is also in full support of a new facility. "When the students originally reacted to the closing of the cage, there was a lot of negative energy going around. I wanted to take that energy and turn it into apositive by having them look at the big picture of on-campus recreation. The,closing of the cage is only a small part of on-campus recreational problems." Sather said. "We use recreation as part of ourmission statement to prospective students.

Community members play withworld By Michelle Rennie and Sara Buckwitz The Western Front A diverse group of about 60 people,ranging in age from 15 to 70-something, gathered Sunday afternoon in Carver Gym to.experience first-hand the task of solving world problems. They came to find solutions that would make the world work,said Chuck Dingee, a former Western student and the Pacific Northwest representative for the WorldGame Institute. Playing the game is a chance to gain "global education experimentally," World Gameintern Pamm Harslebacher said. As each participant entered the gym, they received a profile sheetindicating their role and region they would represent for the duration of the exercise. Western's WorldGame Club, Geography Club, International Club and Peace Resource Center sponsored Sunday's four-hour event. The World Game was created in 1969 by R. Buckminister Fuller, an eccentric philosopher,inventor and visionary. Fuller was best known for his design of the U.S. pavilion at the 1967 World's Fairin Montreal, Dingee said. Fuller knew government leaders had access to all the information needed tovalidate their war games. In his game, the enemies are not other countries, but universal problems,such as illiteracy, resource and energy production versus consumption. By 1972, Fuller created a non-profit World Game Institute to promote his idea. His goal was "to make the world work for 100 percent ofhumanity in the shortest possible time through spontaneous cooperation, without ecological offense orthe disadvantage of anyone." The game board is a Fuller-projection map of 75 feet by 35 feet that spansthe floor. This map is the largest and most accurate in the world, Dingee said. And it looks different fromthe Mercator map, invented in the 1600s, that hangs in almost every school classroom. The Fullerprojection map minimizes the amount of distortion, Dingee said. Dingee commenced the workshop byusing the length of the map as a timeline starting at 4.5 billion years ago up to 1997. To visuallydemonstrate the length of time, he moved across the map. Proportionally, the existence of the humanrace is only the width of a hair on his timeline. At about 3000 B.C., the first of the human markersrepresenting 120 million people came out of the crowd and positioned themselves on the map. AsDingee narrated the major events of the centuries, more people moved out onto the map, taking theirplace in Asia, the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East. By 1850, the human markers representeda 1 billion population increase within the 10 world regions. At 1950, half the group was on the map. Thedensity in Asia and India is beginning to become evident. In the next 47 years, the population on the map doubles and all the participants are on the map. Five people stand on North America, fewerv than inSouth America. Toy props were distributed representing each region's food production, while candlesportrayed energy resources. An informational kit armed each region with detailed, up-to-date statisticsregarding the unique challenges they would be tackling. The game works by giving a visual image to thestatistics. Each region had the general goals of attaining 100 percent literacy, necessary energy andfood. "North America consumes more food than every other region other than China and uses moreenergy resources than every other region," Dingee said. Amar Kasukonis, who started playing the gamebut then decided to observe, said he did not think the game was real enough. All the food wasted onWestern's campus could feed 10 villages in Africa, he said. Each group began to work on theirchallenges, attempting to find solutions that could be paid for with their resources and their ability toborrow from wealthier regions. Meanwhile, representatives from world organizations UNESCO, the WorldHealth Organization and commercial banks visited each region to help them attain their goals andreprimand them for infractions. For the first round, the regions developed imaginative solutions for theirtough regional problems. When proposed, those solutions were taken to world organizations andrewarded for creativity. By the second round, interaction between the regions was beginning to happen. Southeast Asia had a grievance with Europe for testing nuclear bombs on their islands, so they sent arepresentative to Europe to ask them to stop the nuclear testing and to pay $20 billion for compensa-Front/Sara Buckwitz Participants take a walk around the world Sunday afternoon in Carver Gym as partof The World Game Institute's program on how to solve world problems. tion and clean-up. Europe didn'twant to pay that amount, so they negotiated. The European representative said, "We're taking ourtechnology and cleaning up the waste" in order to convince Southeast Asia to accept $15 billion and one technology coupon. India proposed a world conference on literacy for which the participant regions allreceived literacy points. Africa sold some of their natural resources to Japan in exchange for $100 billion. The group discussed its dreams between the second and third rounds for the year 2017. Dingee filled anoverhead projector film with over 25 hopes ranging from complete equality and distribution of wealth tofree access to all media to eliminating disease. Of the more than 200,000 people who have participated in the World Game Workshop,'ithe list remains virtually unchanged, Dingee said. And the good news isthat all of these problems can or will be solved, he said. By the end of the third round, all regions hadbettered their living and environmental standards. North America had established universal health care.Africa had raised its literacy to 75 percent. A discussion followed the game. Haslebacher asked theparticipants what they learned. "Being in Russia, sort of in the middle of things ... we were just trying tokeep the roof over our heads," Phil Heft said. The situation made him wonder how bad it must have beenin either India or Africa. "It was a real eye-opener," he said. "We were able to solve several problemswith one strategy, and we did all this without the help of America," said Sara Rodgers, of the Africandelegation. At the end of the afternoon, everyone gathered at the outer edges of the map. He covered the map with 40,000 red, plastic chips as a dramatic visual of the problems facing the planet. When theWorld Game Institute started in the early '70s, the chips represented 50,000 nuclear weapons, he said.Now, the 20,000 chips on the map represent the progress of world disarmament. By the year 2000, only7000 chips will be left, Dingee said. - He concluded the afternoon with the Chinese proverb, "the journeyof a thousand miles begins with one step," and removed a chip and the problem it represented fromthe global map.

Land has been designated for the skatepark to be builton. So now the Whatcom County Skatepark Foundation has set its sights on raising the $50,000 itneeds to fully fund the skatepark. Whatcom County had donated $45,000 towards construction of thepark when it was first put into motion. The WCSF, a group of skateboarders and parents who overseethe design and funding of the skatepark, have raised about $25,000 through various fundraising efforts.The WCSF had two big fundraisers within the last two months. It put on a concert at Cosmos Cafe,and had a booth at the Ski To Sea festival where local merchants donated merchandise to them, and itauctioned and raffled items off, as well as selling T-shirts. The WCSF made $1,100 from the boothand informed people about what it was trying to do, said WCSF member Shelly Ness. After the Ski ToSea event, The WCSF doesn't have any fundraisers planned for now. However, Ethan Allen, askateboarder and WCSF member, says that the city may donate more money. The WCSF did have asetback in their fundraising efforts. It had planned on having a large-scale concert and skateboardcompetition at the Whatcom County Sports Arena. It had free use of the building and was looking into booking bands from Epitaph Records. However, the arena was damaged during the winter storms anddue to a fight between the city and the county over funding for repairs, the offer was retracted. Thedesign for the skatepark includes a big area with curved walls that range from four to six feet tall, flyramps, rails and raised circular areas. The county has also hired skatepark designer Steve Rose as aconsultant so it has an idea of what designs are feasible for their budget. Rose has designedskateparks in Kent, Anacortes, Salem, Ore. and Venice Beach, Calif. But despite the professionalconsultation, WCSF members have designed their own park and would like to stick to that design. "Atfirst we had a really elaborate design that everyone was stoked on, but it was too expensive so we had to slim down a bit. But it's still really good," Allen said. Front/Corey Lewis Skaters like Ethan Allen won'thave to illegally pursue their hobby anymore, as he is here on the steps of the Whatcom CountyCourthouse. A new skatepark is to be built for their use. A meeting is scheduled at 5:30 p.m. tonight atCarl Cozier Elementary School. It is to discuss design with skateboarders not involved with the WCSF.Flyers were sent out to people on the skatepark's mailing list, so Ness said he hopes more than 1,00people will show to talk about what people like and don't like about Rose's and the WCSF members'proposal. The WCSF meets at 5 p.m. Mondays at at the County Courthouse, 311 Prospect St., room101. FEELING LEFT OUT IN THE COMPUTER AGE?

As decided by the statelegislature, all state employees will be eligible for a 3 percent salary increase, effective July 1. Theseraises will cost Western $3 million. Included in the salary increase will be all Western classified andexempt staff, as well as faculty. Classified staff who have not reached the top of their pay scale willreceive scheduled step increments each fiscal year. In addition, the classified staff will receive a 3percent raise. This will cost Western an additional $375,000 over the biennium. Classified employees are defined as civil servants under state law and have their salaries set by the state. Examples ofclassified staff at Western are secretaries, custodians and maintenance workers. Exempt staff,who have their salaries set by the university, will get the 3 percent increase plus an additional 1 percenttied to performance reviews effective July 1. They will receive another 2 percent tied to performancereviews effective July 1, 1998. Examples of exempt staff at Western include those in administrativepositions, personnel and counselors. In addition to the 3 percent increase, faculty will receive a 1percent cost-of-living raise, and an average increase of 2 percent, based on recommendations from theFaculty Salary and Welfare Committee effective July 1, 1998. The additional 1 percent raise given to both faculty and exempt staff will cost Western an additional $1.4 million. President Karen Morse, asquoted in the May 8 edition of the FAST newsletter, said of the additional raises, "Clearly, we arepleased that we gained authority to grant additional salary increases to some employees, but we have to fund those increases out of programmatic dollars â€” dollars that we had hoped to use to "betterprepare for increased student enrollments and curriculum improvements over the biennium. Western will also spend an additional $388,000 over the next biennium for increases in employee benefits, andan estimated $200,000 will be needed to pay for inflation in the areas of utilities and postage.According to VP for External Affairs Al Froderberg, Western's original proposal to the state legislatureincluded a 7.5 percent raise for the faculty and staff. Froderberg said this plan met with resistancebecause of budget limits placed by initiative 601, forcing employees to settle for the 3 percent raise.Froderberg said giving state employees a 1 percent raise costs the state $100 million. University Budget Director Jack Cooley said Western employees have only received increases totaling 4 percent over four years, an average of 1 percent per year, while inflation has reached up to 3 percent each year. Cooley says he believes this means the 3 percent raise docs not begin to make up for the costs of inflation that employees have incurred. Staff displays artistic side By Lucy Kee The Western Front In the thirdannual Arts and Crafts Show, 49 Western staff members will display their art works from 11 a.m. to 4p.m. through Friday June 6 in the Viking Union Main Lounge. This year, more than 60 pieces rangingfrom photography to quilts to watercolor and oil paintings will be on display. "It's interesting ... youwork next to a person for 10 years, then suddenly, they come out with this amazing work," said showcoordinator Linda Strock. "It's a side of the employees that you rarely get to see." "It's also fascinatingbecause we don't get to see what the items look like until the day before [the show begins]," Strocksaid. With titles like "Hog Heaven" and "Petals, Poetry and Pieces of the Past," many of the works arepaintings and drawings, but the show also includes mixed media, woodwork, quilts, photographs,ceramics, needlework, origami and porcelain dolls. One of the pieces entitled "Sacred Salmon" by Micki Mavoureen, is a fish quilt wall hangins. In the piece, Mavoureen tanned the skins of salmons andincluded them in her piece. "Far and Away Round Robin" by Camille Hackler, is a queen-sized bed quiltin barn reds, navy blues and tans. This piece is special because it took a combined effort from manyindividuals to produce the quilt. The porcelain Indian doll by Mary McClary entitled "White Feather"includes a wig that McClary had made herself. McClary also molded the clay and made all of the clothes herself. "One of the hardest things about coordinating the show is finding space," Strock said. Thedifficult part is having to secure a location for a one-week block. "We should already have a space fornext year â€” we began looking in March," she added. Another difficulty with coordinating the showis finding people willing to let go of their art long enough to put it on display. "We have to assure themthat their artwork will be protected and safe," Strock said. "They wonder if it will get stolen, broken orif they will get laughed at." To guarantee the artwork will not be stolen, gallery guards have been hired.DIRTY DAN HARRIS PRIME RIB, STEAKS, SEAFOOD Make reservations â€¢ fi/|! now for June^Graduation Dinner!

The Human Race, sponsored by the Whatcom VolunteerCenter, is a run/walk that raises money for several non-profit organizations in the community. Thefundraiser is unique because, "it is a fundraiser where everyone works together and walks together tosupport any non-profit organization in the community," Michele Higgins, committeef chair andWhatcom Volunteer Board president said. Participants are encouraged to form teams and raise pledges for their designated charity. Seventy-five percent of all pledges go. directly to the agency the teammember is walking for; 25 percent is donated to the WVC for organizing the event. Armed withbanners and rain gear, volunteers crowded outside of the protective roof of the ferry terminal to eatbagels, drink coffee and warm-up before the race. Bill Quehrn of KGMI News Plus 790 emceed theevent with the help of Bellingham Mayor Mark Asmundson, who welcomed the volunteers. He praisedthe event and all the "heart and soul" the volunteers put into the community. "Without it, we would not be the community we are," he said. Tammy Bennett of the YMCA led the crowd in a morning warm-up ofjumping, marching and stretches. The Human Race was finally in, Slenes. "It was a wonderful race andcause, and who cares if it was raining," she said. City Council member and Whatcom Volunteer Centerboard member Louise Bjornson thought the crowd of runners and walkers was bigger than expected,especially with the rain storms. One aspect of the Human Race she enjoys is that "the comraderie isfun, and it is a race that anyone in the community can participate she said. This year, the Human Racealone raised $16,900 for Whatcom County nonprofit organizations. Last year, the race raised $33,000 for non-profit organizations, churches, schools and service clubs. Whatcom Volunteer City Coujtcilmember [Center works as an "umbrel-lla" for other organizations, *such as RSVP, a group of retiredsenior volunteers and SAY=YES to education, a group of volunteers that works with students in localschools on a one-on- one basis, placing volunteers into volunteer opportunities. Higgins was "verypleased with the turnout due to the torrential downpour we had. It was such a delight to see people come register and sign-in with a smile on their faces."

Western student Angie Slenes was thefirst runner to complete the race. Slenes said that she "likes to run because it provides an escape fromthe everyday stresses of life." Resident Julia Davies finished the race with her group soon after WSL,from page 1 lawyers, without them you're basically teaching yourself. I'm always happy to hear whenthey're getting the money they deserve." Not everything the WSL wanted passed made it through thelegislature. Senate bill 5517, which gained support from many students, did not pass. This bill wouldhave added one student to the Board of Trustees at Western. The student would serve a one-year term,and would have been chosen by the governor. Although this bill died in the House Rules Committee, itmade substantial progress this session, passing the Senate for the first time. Sen. Wood, the primesponsor, has already committed to working on the bill next year. "This bill has been up for 28 yearsnow, and this year we got closer than ever before," Associated Students Legislative Representative TresGallant said. "It remains a power struggle between the administration and the students. I've been working on getting it passed for four years now,.and I'll be back to support it again next year." In its first year on the ballot, Senate bill 5731 would have created a state matching fund for child-care expendituresmade at the state baccalaureate institutions. The fund would have encouraged innovation and quality at campus child-care facilities. While the bill died this session, Kohl will be convening a group oflegislators and other interested parties to work on campus child-care issues this summer. "There is a lot of support for child-care," Gallant said. "People know that you can't go to school and get to work if youdon't have child-care." Another bill which didn't survive was House Bill 1229. Designed to savestudents a few dollars, it would have exempted text book sales from the state sales tax. This bill died in.the House Finance Committee. "I was bitterly disappointed that so few representatives gave it ahearing," Gallant said. "They gave huge tax breaks to the rich, yet "refused to give this (House bill 1229)a chance." "Overall our efforts were a qualified success," Gallant said. "I was pleased with the bills thatpassed, and we made progress on a majority of the bills that failed. In the future, we need to becomeconcerned with initiatives that will limit revenue that the state can spend on education ... people will have to step up to the plate and handle the growing need for higher education."

Not only is it a perfect opportunity to release tension,it is a great way to become involved with the community, said business major Eddie Engelhardt. Outdoor exposure and some time on a trail is a great way to rejuvenate your spirits. Whatcom County offers avariety of volunteer environmental centers, including the Maritime Heritage Center and Green ways.Both programs strive to preserve Bellingham's environment through volunteer activities including wildlifehabitat, patrolling for litter, helping school classes with service- learning projects and repairing trails.The Maritime Heritage Center has various programs designed to teach elementary and middle schoolstudents how fish fit into their environment. Students are taught the natural history of fish, as well asreceiving first-hand experience in preserving the center's habitat. Beginning every fall, the MaritimeHeritage Center has volunteer programs throughout the year that include weeding, mulching and clearingaway overgrown plants. Often times students during the school year will work on a specific volunteerproject, and are able to see the results of their work. Another habitat restoration site, Greenways, has amultitude of activities that thrive on community support. Stated in the Bellingham Greenways Guide Map, "Greenways are assemblies of public and private lands, usually along corridors defined by waterfeatures, steep slopes, wildlife movements, utility corridors or old railways. They reflect a communityplanning effort to preserve and enhance open space for a wide range of uses and users." GreenwaysPark Operation Center is the pinpoint of all Greenways activity. Most of the land is set aside to aid in theharvesting of native plants, used for city and Greenways restoration projects. Greenways receives itsplants from three sources. The majority of Greenways plants come from local nurseries, said SallyManifold, Greenways volunteer coordinator. The Skagit Conservation District and donations from othergrowers provide the remainder of Greenways growth. The seedlings are either planted directly or within ayear, to specified habitat reservation areas in Bellingham. Most recently, Greenways completed therestoration of the South Bay Trail, which runs through Boulevard Park. The Greenways VolunteerProgram has a number of ways students can volunteer and help out in the community: â€¢Drop-inactivities: Greenways issues a monthly news brochure that lists volunteer work parties and events inBellingham. Libraries, bike and outdoor shops and City Hall all carry informational brochures. â€¢Ask for a project: Organize a work party among friends or within a class. Ask for a time and area of your choice, then provide the labor. The program will provide materials, plants, tools, directions and supervisionof work. â€¢ A d o p t - a - t r a i l: Interested organizations or individuals can sign , on for long-term.mainte- r: , ^. , nance duties that fit your skills on your favorite trail section. â€¢Fill out a volunteerapplication: If you have special interests or skills, you can be called when a need arises. â€¢Be a sitesteward: Those who have some interest in or knowledge of native plants can monitor, maintain and planrestoration work at a planting site established along a trail. â€¢Be an intern: Help out with regularactivities, specialize, or customize a project to meet your academic needs. â€¢Community service:Whether it's court ordered or a school project, Greenways activities can provide the hours you need. Formore detailed information about these or any other volunteer program, contact the GreenwaysVolunteer Coordinator Sally Manifold at 676-6985. Environmental centers are always look- Front/KatieJohnson ing for volunteers'to hel^restofe-'and'preserve wildlife habitat. Minor problems, such as theoveruse of trails can always use, help in maintaining nature's beauty. Greenways and other city workersput a lot of effort into preserving Bellingham's trail systems, but there is a definite shortage of labor whencompared to the monstrous task of taking care of the environment. "There's so many things that need tobe done and the city staff can't do it all," said Skye Heaton, Western health major. Helping with theconservation of our community will benefit ourselves, as well as the environment. Planting, renovatingtrails, controlling weeds and keeping-wildlife records are only a few of the opportunities that awaitvolunteer efforts. For more information about local environmental centers, call City Parks at 647- 6380. ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 11 ---------- June 3. 1997 IMilMlliinlMMMill idLJEmldLiM THE WESTERN FRONT â€¢ 11 Learning and growing withenvironment By Todd Wanke The Western Front This spring quarter, some college interns are spendingtheir time away from the lecture halls of Western, and getting back to nature while teaching WhatcomCounty sixth-graders to better understand the environment. The interns, 10 Western and FairhavenCollege students, as well as three Whatcom Community College students have a variety ofbackgrounds and majors, and all provide an experiential learning process for sixth-graders in an area that is unique from anything else during their school year. The program, which is run by WhatcomMiddle School sixth-grade teacher John Horner and former Huxley College student Crina Hoye,encourages nearly 1,000 sixth-graders to learn about their local environment, while exploring solutionsto environmental concerns, Horner said. Horner was the recipient- of the Washington StateEnvironmental Educator Award for 1995. What the program encompasses is a two-day event at theGordon Carter Environmental Education Site at 3800 S. Bay Dr. During the event, each intern teaches a group of about 10 sixth-graders on the concepts of habitat, adaptation and interdependence on dayone, and then dependence, impact and restoration during day two. These concepts are used to identifyand further illustrate the specific habitats of plants and animals the kids might happen to run acrossduring their stay at the site. Western sophomore and prospective geology major -Brady Hanson^says5the internshipris a good opportunity for him to work outdoors and learn valuable teaching skills, as well as opening doors in the future for environmental work. The two-day program for each sixth-grade class,"Gets the kids to think beyond the scope of just recycling and more towards what they can really do toconserve the environment," Hanson said. After the kids complete each portion of their day, they aregiven a bead to use as they wish, Hanson said. Each bead's color represents something in nature, suchas blue for water and green for plants. "These beads give the kids something tangible to hold Front/ToddWanke Some Shuksan Middle School sixth-graders show off their dream-catchers during a visit toGordon Carter Site. They made the dream catchers with the beads they earned. onto after they leave thesite, to get them to think further about what they learned during their stay," Hanson said. "Since ourenvironment is so complex, the goal of this program is to narrow down the focus to specific habitats anddependencies of the' plant and'anlm'at species that are on the site," Hoye said. "We want the kids to see how much we depend on the environment, and by working together with all other living things, they get to see what they can do in order to restore our environment," Hoye said. As for the sixth-graders,"There's a seven week science rotation at the kids' school that gets them ready to come out to the siteand at the same time prepares them for switching classes next year," said Alan Sutliff, a FairhavenMiddle School student teacher. "By the time the kids get to the site they can really understand thehabitats of plants and animals," Sutliff said. "Basically, we're all having a lot of fun coming out to thesite." Besides learning about the environment, the sixth-graders get a feeling of working with oneanother as a community, said intern Sky Fulton. "With the addition of a few more interns than lastyear, we as interns are able to work along with the kids to build the things that will enhance the site as a whole," Fulton said. These things include water observatories and sheltered areas used forexamining and discussing the nearby forests and clear-cut areas that affect the Lake Whatcomwatershed. In a day and age when wooded areas such as this one are being logged for development, it'sspecial to see students utilizing the environment in a positive manner that will benefit Bellinghammiddle- schoolers for years to come, Fulton said. Western sophomore Morgan Schneidler noted thatthis internship is good because it points to a direction that will bring many opportunities for her in thefuture. "The program has helped me get back to the basics of combining learning and playing together toform the dynamics of a group process," Schneidler said. "It's exciting to look at one of the sixth-gradersand visibly notice that he or she has made a connection with nature in a way that somehow helps tobetter understand their place in the world." Whale watching is totally killer By Tammy Sue Clarke TheWestern Front Imagine a beautiful day cruising in the waters of the Puget Sound. The sun is shining,and a light breeze is in the air. As you round one of numerous San Juan Islands you spot something inthe water. You ask yourself, what could that be? At first you think it may be a log. Then the thoughtcrosses your mind that it might actually be a seal. Perhaps, you are hallucinating because of the sea-sickness medicine you took earlier. As you draw closer, you realize it is actually a killer whale. Photocourtesy of The AnimaLife Webpage Instantly, Shamu and "Free Willy" come to mind. Your hopes startto rise as you think of the amazing feats these trained killer whales perform. Would they do anythinglike that in the wild? Just then the animal jumps clear of the water and lands on its back. You are gentlybrought back into reality by the voice of your whale watching guide who informs you that you have justwitnessed a breaching by a killer whale. And then you remember you forgot your camera at home!Orcas (a.k.a. killer whales) are among the fastest swimming marine mammals. They race at speeds upto 30 mph. However, they usually travel at much slower speeds, between two and six mph. The killerwhale is one of the top predators of the ocean, often preying on its own ocean companions, such asminke whales and seals. Killer whales have four typical behaviors: spyhop-ping, hanging vertically inthe water with the head partially above water; breaching, jumping clear of the water and landing onthe back or side; lobtailing, slapping the tail flukes on the surface of the water; and pec-slapping,slapping a pectoral flipper on the surface of the water. Males range from 22- to 27-feet long andfemales are 17- to 24-feet long. The beautiful black, streamlined body of the Orca is equipped with twopectoral fins and a large dorsal fin. Behind the dorsal fin lies a white patch known as the saddle.Researchers identify individual whales with both of these features. Starting in late May through the end of September, Orca whales can be spotted throughout the waters of the Puget Sound and southern BritishColumbia. These waters are home to more than 90 transient orcas. Three pods of Orca whales inhabitthe waters surrounding the San Juan Islands. Pods are groups of killer whales that range in size fromless than five up to 30 individuals. The pods are long-term social units, which consist of males, females and calves. Contrary to popular belief, the killer whale is not an endangered species. However, thesewhales were once hunted and captured. Between 1965 and 1976, 60 whales from the Puget Sound wereremoved or died in captures. Whales aren't the only thing to be seen. Along with the beautiful landscapeof the islands, you see dolphins, porpoises, otters and seals swimming in the deep blue waters.

As your cruise ends, you are thankful for the opportunity to go and see the splendid wildlife that calls the Puget Sound home. You are also thankful you didn't have toput up with any "Moby Dick" or blowhole jokes. Whale watching tours start at $45 per person anddepending on whether your cruise is three hours long or all day, the cost may differ. Cruises also offer off-season and group rates. Killer whales are easily spotted the earlier you go in the season. Mostboats offer hydrophone systems, which enable you to listen to the whale's song while watching them.They also have a "naturalist" on board to answer any questions about killer whales and other wildlife.Be sure to take your camera and binoculars and ask if lunch and drinks will be served on your tour.The Web is a great place to find information on cruises offered in the San Juans and around the world.For those who feel more comfortable on dry land, check out the Whale Museum in Friday Harbor, theSeattle Aquarium or check out virtual whale watching on the Web. ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 12 ---------- ( June 3. 1997 Now a morning paper, every day!

WESTERN FRONT CLASSIFIEDSSELL! 650-3160 Front/Arvid Hokanson Lake Squalicum, off Mount Baker Highway, provides fly-fishingserenity. Flyfishing: Fishermen find an allure to no lures By Arvid Hokanson The Western FrontFishing. To some, it conjures up ideas of an aluminum boat, a cooler full of beer, worms and a couple of overweight guys trying to one-up each other with outlandish stories. On the other hand, some peopleremember Tom Skerritt, Craig Sheffer and Brad Pitt casting flies in "A River Runs Through It." Fly fishingis alive and kicking in Whatcom County. Marc Hulbert, president of the Fourth Corner Fly-Fishers, saidboth forks of the Nooksack River, Lakes Squalicum, Fazon and Padden are all great places to fly fish.Hulbert pointed out that Lake Padden is a great place for beginners, with its easy foot access to thewater, and the fact it is stocked with rainbow and cut-throat trout. But before one can figure out where togo fishing, one must have the proper equipment. Western Junior Aaron Hostetler, an employee ofYeager's Sporting Goods, said a person can start fly fishing for around $100, which includes a rod, reel,line and of course, flies. Another large aspect of fly fishing revolves around the fly itself. With so manyfish to catch, what kind of fly should be used? Hostetler said a good fisherman will catch flies from astream or lake to see what the fish are eating and then try to imitate those flies. "Fisherman that arereally into it will, who know what they want, and what they're after will tie their own flies," Hostetler said.The rod is also another essential fly fishing component. Hostetler said most rods are made fromfiberglass and graphite. The graphite rods have more play and action, allowing the fisherman to better feel the fish biting onto the line, while a fiberglass rod has a stiffer feel and holds up better to wear. When fly fishing, a person must have a state license. Hulbert said there are different licenses depending on whattype of fish someone is angling for. As for the popularity of fly fishing, Hulbert said, "It has becomeincreasingly popular ever since that movie, 'A River Runs Through It' came out." "I have heard, but can'tconfirm, that it (fly fishing) is the fastest growing sport among women," Hulbert said. With theincreasing popularity though, comes strains on fish populations. "Right now there aren't many veryhealthy runs," Hulbert said. Hulbert noted that the Fourth Corner Fly Fishers is a conservation-orientedgroup, who works with the Department of Wildlife and helped in bringing steelhead back to Bear CreekOn the Stillaguamish River. When looking at fly fishing at its most basic level, it is important to realizefly fishing does not just consist of throwing a fly onto the water. "If you're good at it, it is probably the best way to catch fish," Hostetler said. When casting a fly, there is the classic dry-fly technique, whichattempts to create the illusion that a real fly is landing on the water. On the other hand, there is theanother method of throwing a sinking fly to catch a fish's attention. "With fly fishing, you're casting theline and not the lure," Hulbert said. Differences aside, why exactly do people fly fish? Fly fishing requires extensive skills and knowledge. Avid fly fisherman Kevin Majkut pointed out there are all sorts of thingsfly fishermen need to know. Besides the basic technique, a good fisherman will know about howvarious types of plants, weather, water conditions and different bugs affect fishing conditions. " "It's notlike lure fishing, where you buy some bait, your lawn chair and throw your line in the water and wait,"Majkut said. Majkut also pointed out that for people who like lots of equipment, fly fishing equipment isplentiful. "You could go to the fishing store every weekend and spend $200 on various gadgets," Majkutsaid. From a grassroots point of view, fly fishing enables a person to interact with nature. "When you'reout there, outside, especially in the river, you have some connection with nature. There is really not a lotbetween you and nature," Majkut said. Another reason people fly fish stems from how the fish aretreated by the fly. When fly fishing, the fish tend to bite at flies, resulting being hooked near the mouth,as opposed to traditional lure fishing, where a fish may swallow the hook down into their throat and gills."It's much easier to release the fish, without killing them," Majkut said. For more information on flyfishing, both the Internet and Wilson Library provide information on how to get started. ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 13 ---------- June 3. 1997 Mmmmm H â€” I S ! M I Â» I Â» I ^^ m^,$Â®?â„¢â„¢?3Â°â„¢ Washington's ski season is far from over Backcountry skiers are still on the slopes after a record-breaking winter By Riley Morton TheWestern Front Washingtonians were blessed with a wonderful winter this year. Even though June is now upon us, the snow is still stacked high in the Cascades and will continue to be so for much of thesummer. This is the prime time of year for backcountry skiing and snow-boarding. The good weather,long days and relatively stable snowpack make late spring/early summer almost perfect for getting out into the mountains. Backcountry skiing can be a bit complicated. Traditional alpine skis work just like they do in the ski area, but don't allow for an easy ascent. Cross-country skis are nice for touring, butaren't made for descending at any kind of speed. Thus a cross between the two is desired by mostbackcountry skiers. Telemark skiing is experiencing a recent explosion in popularity and justifiablyso. Telemark skis are similar to downhill skis with the main exception being the bindings allow the heelto rise and fall at will, just like crosscountry skis. Telemarkers attach synthetic mohair skis to thebottom of their skis for the ascent, and then peel the skins off to ski down. For skiers who enjoy alpineskiing too much to abandon it entirely, Alpine touring bindings offer a perfect combination of the two.Alpine Touring, also known as ski mountaineering and ran-donee skiing, allows the skier to have areleasable heel for the ascent and then lock the heels down for a ski that performs like a downhill ski.Alpine Touring boots have to act like both climbing boots and ski boots. Some AT bindings even haveattachable crampons for steep climbs. The growing crowd of back-country snowboarders are alsogaining easier backcountry Front/Riley Morton This guy is not a professional snowboarder.Instead, hehas chosen to study industrial design. Senior Zac West rides the powder below Artist Point on the flanksof Table Mountain. access these days with technology. Riders who are tired of using clumsysnowshoes all the time now have the option of using the Voile Split Decision snowboard. The SplitDecision actually splits in half, forming two short, wide skis; the bindings rotate allowing thesnowboarder to ski up the hill with skins and then reattach the board and rotate the bindings.Unfortunately, this isn't the only technology you'll need when you head to the hills. Avalanchetransceivers, snow shovels and snow probes, as well as the knowledge of how to use them, are requiredequipment for just about any backcountry trip. The Washington Cascades offer too many backcountryskiing locales to mention here. But here are a few of my favorites: Artist Point/Table Mountain: Theclosest worthwhile back-country skiing happens to be right next to the Mount Baker ski area at ArtistPoint. If you park at the far end of the upper parking lot you are sure to notice the wide cat track heading straight into the great wide open. Keeping .right along the cat tracks one will reach the flat spot alongthe ridge that is Artist Point Front/ Riley Morton Seven powder connoisseurs head towards Artist Point on an Outdoor Center Excursion. in about an hour. At this point, the ski down into the Bagley Lakes Basinis nice, but the ridge to the right will bring you to the top of Table mountain. Dropping off the south sideof Table into the Swift Creek Valley is quite a ride, but skiing back toward the ski area is fun too, andyou don't have to hike out. Ruth Mountain: At 7,100 feet, the summit of Mount Ruth is a great challenge for the intermediate ski mountaineer. Located just northeast of Mount Shuksan, the slopes of Ruthare casually graded, allowing for a nice, mellow climb and ski. Some parties will want to ski roped upbecause of the small, but active glacier on the route. Route descriptions are available in both Beckey'sand Potterfield's guidebooks. Heather Ridge: If you've spend any amount of time skiing at Steven'sPass, chances are you've longed to ski the fresh lines on the ridge north of Highway 2. Heather Ridge(also called Skyline Ridge) is one of the most widely accessible back-country ski locations inWashington; as such, it can get a little crowded on weekends with good weather. However, HeatherRidge is almost as good on bad weather days because almost the whole ridge is covered with treesmake-ing it a prime location for skiing in the fog. The visibility is manageable here even in the mostsketchy conditions. Mount Rainier: Mazama Ridge and Muir Snowfield: The place where this writer made his first turns into the backcountry, Mazama Ridge, right above Paradise on Mount Rainier, offersexcellent non-glaciated turns for skiers of every level. Before the idea of chairlifts had ever been exploredin America, skiers were carving their way down the Muir Snowfield. Paradise was the ski hangout inWashington from the 1930s to the 1950s. To access the goods at Mazama Ridge, simply drive toParadise and start hiking. Numerous lines are available but don't travel too far west, or you'll find yourself on a dangerous descent onto the Nisqually Glacier. Mount Adams, southside route: Beginningclimbers have found the south side of Mount Adams to be a very friendly place. It is the only majorvolcano in the Cascades with an unglaciated route on it. This makes it even better for back-countryskiers. The 7,000 foot vertical drop this route affords is incomparable to anything in the region. Altitudecan present a problem, though. At 12,000 feet, Mount Adams is high enough to make even experienced climbers get altitude sickness. The smile will persist even through the mild headache and nausea thatthe altitude may provide because the skiing is absolutely epic. Mount St. Helens: A good warm up for abigger peak or a ski in and of itself, Mount St. Helens offers consistent and long turns down the 4,000foot south side. One can climb all the way to the 17-year-old summit and peer over the edge at the lavadome in the crater. Be very careful if you do though, because the walls of the crater are super-steep.Permits to climb are required through the summer, so plan ahead on this classic ski. Hurricane Ridge:The best place for backcountry skiing on the Olympic Peninsula, Hurricane Ridge is a good spot forbeginning backcountry skiing. The view of Victoria will turn your head as you try to concentrate onthe wet snow of the Peninsula. Many different slopes are available to play around on, but there is notmuch vertical to have long, continuous runs. With all these options close by, there is no excuse not totry a little backcountry skiing or snow-boarding this summer and live up to every skier/snowboardersdream of making turns every month of the'year. ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 14 ---------- X4* T H E \ ^ E S T E R N F R O N T J SwfijyfcifciQU June 3. 1997 wmmmmmmmmmmmm Take a crashcourse in rock climbing By Lucy Kee The Western Front As the school year draws to a close and thedays gradually get warmer, this is the perfect time to learn a new sport.

Does fan support follow favorites As I looked atthe Shawn.Kemp poster on my wall, a disturbing question entered my mind. If Shawn wasn't adorned inSonic green and gold, would the poster still be on my wall? As I surveyed the rest of the room, I sawimages of Mariners, Seahawks (OK, no Seahawks but just play along) and Thunderbirds. What is sospecial about these particular athletes that they receive the honor of covering my walls? It is a dilemmafast approaching every sports fan. Why do we pull for the players on our favorite team? Is it becausewe can associate with their personalities? Because they represent our community? Or is it becausethey are wearing the right color-scheme next to picture of the Space Needle? In essence, who are wereally rooting for â€” the players or the teams? As Seattle sports fans, we in particular must prepareourselves to deal with this dilemma. When the Seahawks move to Los Angeles, adopt the colors tealand black and decide to call themselves the Earthquakes, will we still admire their quest to play .500football, or will we merely laugh at their ineptitude? When Shawn Kemp is traded away because heneeds more funds to continue his ongoing and expensive project to raise the roof, how will we, as Sonics fans, react? Will we support him in his efforts to raise the roof in another city, or will we realize we havebeen missing out on one of the most enjoyable guys to hate in the NBA? How would you react if theplayer you most despised was traded to your team? What about two or three players you didn't like?What if, through the miracle of free agency, the whole team you had grown up loving was transformed into a bunch of characters you had spent your whole life rooting against? Maybe ways around the dilemmaexist. We could form a fantasy team of players we most relate to, and have them compete with ourfriends' fantasy teams. The problem with this idea is that it is stupid, and people would make fun of us.We would also lose the thrill of following a team through its ups and downs. In the years ahead, morefans will have to face this dilemma. If we devotedly cling to our teams, we must let go of logic. We mustdeal with the sad fact that we are really only rooting for uniforms. On the other hand, by worshippingindividual players, we lose the true meaning of team sports. It will not be an easy thing for sports fans to deal with. But that is why it is a dilemma. Perhaps the key to enjoying sports is finding a happymedium. Maybe we can support our favorite team in an athletic sense and look for personal fulfillment inthe players we most readily identify with. Or maybe the key is gambling. Cranky Kemp's priorities arecosting more than just dollars Everyone knew the announcement was coming. Everyone knew he wasunhappy with his contract. Why then, was everyone so shocked when Shawn Kemp announced hewanted to be traded? It is rare in professional basketball for a player on a championship-caliber team toactively seek a trade. Kemp's desire to move has little to do with the team itself, and everything to dowith his search for the almighty dollar. In making his intentions known, Kemp is essentially sayingmoney means more to him than the game. It is likely the only teams that would be able to afford a player such as Kemp would be those teams who are in no position to win a championship anytime soon. Wewould all like to believe professional basketball players love of the game is greater than their greed.They negotiate for their astronomical salaries because teams are willing to pay them. However, if thosesalaries did not exist, basketball players would still show up and play because after all, it's not about themoney, right? It is for this reason, Kemp's announcement is like a slap in the face. The poor kid fromIndiana who was drafted out of high school has shown every sports fan why he plays basketball. For him, it is all about the bottom line. This is the attitude Kemp played with all year, and it was all too evident.From holding out during training camp, saying he needed time for "renewal," to being late for practices and not showing up for team meetings, Kemp allowed everyone to see just how unimportant the game of basketball really is to him. George Karl said he has no intention of trading Kemp and would like tohave a face-to-face meeting with his sulky superstar. However, Kemp, who is seeking a suitable forum in which he can be interviewed, would rather air his litany of complaints for a national audience. Iwould agree that, comparatively speaking, Kemp is underpaid. I can understand and sympathize withhis dissatisfaction that other players, such as Jim Mcllvaine, are making more money than him to warmthe bench. However, what I cannot comprehend is how Kemp thinks his attitude is going to compelothers to want to help him. Even after all of the temper tantrums and the otherwise childish behavior, Iwould like to see Kemp kiss and make up with the Sonics so he can stay in Seattle. But I do not wantto see it happen at the expense of the entire team. If Kemp is to stay, he needs to prove he is an athleteand move basketball to the top of his list of priorities. Maybe while he is in Indiana during the off-season, Kemp will visit some of the places where he used to play when he did it for the sheer love of thesport. Perhaps he will remember what basketball was like when he was an athlete, rather than agluttonous, multi-million dollar sports franchise. ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 15 ---------- June 3. 1997 THE WESTERN FRONT â€¢ 15 wmmmmmmmmmmimmmmmmmmmmmm.

You're on 'Death TV COMMENTARY Driving to Seattleone afternoon, the traffic went from a brisk, effective pace to a standstill. As the vehicles crawled by, thereason for the hold-up came into view: an automobile accident involving several cars surrounded by police cars and emergency vehicles. The trouble is, the accident was on the northbound freeway, and thetraffic surrounding me had slowed down to observe, the drivers craning their necks in hopes of seeingblood. Anyone who drives is guilty of this, but perhaps guilty is too strong a word for something thatseems to be such an integral part of human nature. The lure of death is difficult to understand â€” weboth fear it and are fascinated by it. But it is elusive and rarely seen, so when it rears its ugly head we do the same in hopes of catching a glimpse. Curiosity killed the cat, but that one dead cat only evokesmore curious felines. We may not want to look, but we do so in spite of ourselves. The folks who run thetelevision shows know a sure thing when they see it. But now rather than glimpsing- death for a fewfleeting seconds, we can stare at it for a half hour as it pulsates on the screen. One part "America'sFunniest Home Videos" and one part "Faces of Death," these new television specials disguisethemselves as documentary-like "real" television but merely use the filmed misfortunes of others to getratings. The footage comes from home video and police or security cameras, and shows people gettingshot, getting hit by cars and getting mauled by animals. Then they're given dramatic titles such as"When Animals Attack" or "The World's Scariest Police Chases II" and shown on commercial televisionin order to sell beer and cosmetics. Human life isn't sacred anymore, so why should death be? At leasthuman death is turning a profit for someone. We've gone from cheesy re-creations of actual events tocheesy marketing of the events themselves. Why watch an actor get shot with blanks from a prop pistolwhen you can watch a jewelry store owner get shot with a real gun from close range? Isn't it that muchmore fascinating when you know it's the real thing? Perched like a fly on the wall, our security-cameraviewpoint removes us from danger, from the responsibility of getting involved and subsequently from our own humanity. Rather than going to a coliseum to watch Christians get mauled by lions, we can now doit from the safety and comfort of our living rooms while gorging ourselves on the products they sell us inbetween. We can only hope that when it is our time to die, it will be in our sleep and not in somespectacular fashion that makes for good television. But for now, we are left to wonder if after we'regone, people we've never met before will be able watch our death over and over again in syndication. Thenext time you watch it. happen to someone else, question if that's how you'd like to be rememberedâ€” not with a eulogy by friends, but as entertainment for strangers. Court says president can be suedPast presidents have found time to appear in court Even President Clinton has a private life. Before heclimbed to the office of president of the United States, it is very possible he gathered a few skeletons inhis political closet that involved his private actions. One of these skeletons is in the form of PaulaJones. She is accusing Clinton of, among other things, causing emotional distress and defamation ofher character resulting from an alleged 1991 rendezvous at an Arkansas hotel. Jones now wants to sueClinton on these charges, but Clinton claims that as president, he is immune to lawsuits until after histerm has expired. The U.S. Supreme Court decision passed down last week says she can. Yes, he isour president. Yes, he has a unique job. He is the commander of the most powerful nation in the world,and it is in the public interest that he devote his time to his duties. But he is not above the law where his private life is concerned. Clinton has protection from lawsuits, but only lawsuits that involve his official capacity as president. This allows him to exercise his duties to the fullest without worrying that hisactions may publicly bring him personal liability. All officials have this privilege. However, nothing Jonesis accusing him of is part of his official capacity, so the protection should not extend to him. Also, the'Court must recognize her rights under the Constitution and provide a timely trial. The Supreme Courtnoted in its decision that a prolonged delay "may create a significant risk of irreparable harm to (Jones)because of an unforeseeable loss of evidence or the possible death of a party." This doesn't mean thatClinton will need to drop everything important to the nation. The Supreme Court recognized thatrequiring the president to appear at a specific time and place would violate the principle of separationof powers and severely burden the executive branch. The Supreme Court also decided that providingevidence and videotaped testimony will not harm Clinton's performance in office. The Court came tothis decision on the basis that other presidents have provided testimony with no ill effects to thenation. Of the last five former presidents, Nixon provided tapes, Ford gave a deposition for a criminal trialand Carter gave videotaped testimony for a criminal trial. Even Clinton has twice provided videotapedtestimony for the trial of a former associate, James McDougal. Former presidents have also hadprivate lawsuits filed against them while in office. The most notable example was President Kennedy,who was sued while campaigning for the nation's highest office, and the matter was not settled until after he was elected. Kennedy contended that he was protected from private lawsuits, but the courts didnot support his claim, so he settled out of court. This decision will not open a floodgate of nasty, anti-Clinton lawsuits either. The Supreme Court stated in its decision that most frivolous lawsuits will beterminated before Clinton or any other president would become involved. It is in the best interests of thenation that Clinton devote his maximum amount of time to his office, but it is also in the public interestthat these charges be answered before his term expires to quell public anger. If he is innocent, then heshould clear up this lawsuit as quickly as possible and continue with business as usual. It should takeno more time than the campaign fundraisers that occasionally occupy his busy schedule. Dangerousprecedent set for future nuisance suits The president of the United States heads the most powerful nation in the world. When vested with the power to head one of the three branches of our government, overseeall diplomatic affairs and, among other things, nominate Supreme Court justices, our presidentshould not be burdened with civil lawsuits arising from alleged acts committed before assuming thepresidency. But last week, the Supreme Court unanimously rejected President Clinton's appeal todelay proceedings of a suit against him until after his term of office expires. This is the first time alawsuit against a sitting president for conduct unrelated to his official duties may go to trial. Thepresident is a regular citizen of this county, required to abide by the law just like you and me. No matterhow powerful the president is, justice should always served. The question at hand though is when?.People wonder why, if the president has time to raise campaign funds and play golf, he can't take thetime to go through a trial. To put things in perspective, if we as students can afford to spend anafternoon at Boulevard Park, why can't we add another four credits to our schedules? In the case ofPaula Jones versus William Jefferson Clinton, the president is charged with sexually harassing Jones in1991. He is accused of asking Jones to come to his hotel room where, after entering the room, Jonesalleges that the then-governor made both verbal and physical sexual advances toward her, including arequest to perform oral sex after exposing himself. The status of the president while in office is a pivotalissue. This is why Clinton asked the Supreme Court to grant him immunity from trial until after he leavesthe Oval Office in 2001. The precedent now stands that we can burden our already over-burdenedpresident with the politics of a personal lawsuit. What good can this lead to? In the case of Jonesversus Clinton, the lawsuit stinks of political manipulation from Clinton's conservative critics. Joneschose to file the lawsuit three years after the incident allegedly occurred. If she was so traumatized byClinton's actions, why didn't she take immediate action? As part of her political game, the religiousright has been helping to fuel Jones's legal defense fund. Why has she now gone on various televisionprograms, including appearances with Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson, to continue theembellishment of her story? The personal life of the president should not interfere with our nationalinterests, especially when the matter involves frivolous, politically motivated lawsuits. Pamela Karlan,a University of Virginia law professor, warned against the Supreme Court justices saying that the validityof Jones' allegations is irrelevant. "If you announce that the president can be called into court, peoplewill call him into court," she said in an interview with ABC News. "It's a copycat phenomenon,because publicity about certain kinds of things tends to bring people out of the woodwork who wantto bring similar cases." The president, who has been working to expand NATO eastward and forge anagreement on a balanced budget, should be able to work on these and other pressing issues withoutunnecessary interruption. And a case involving the leader of the free world, a media circus and six-year-old allegations should be able to wait another four years. i ---------- Western Front - 1997 June 3 - Page 17 ---------- DEAD or ALIVE DSED BOORS CASH REWARD OFFERED Bring 'em down t o . . .

Students expect not to receive last minute assignments, tests or ear-shattering commotionfrom the Haggard Hall/Wilson Library remodeling project. Since Western blatantly ignores the first twoexpectations, why should the third be any different? The countdown to finals is stressful enough. Itbecomes even more stressful when construction workers make as much noise as humanly possibleduring classes. Last Thursday, I was sitting in the College Hall computer lab with numerous otherstressed-out students frantically writing papers. Outside the building, an overzealous construction workerwas smashing windows with a large metal wand. My first instinct was to step outside the building and tellthe worker just where he could stick the large metal wand. As if this were not enough, the worker yelledat the top of his lungs, "Hey, watch this one," followed by another loud crash. I'm not sure if he realizedhis actions were not as impressive to students as it may have been to his construction cronies. Iunderstand the construction company is on a schedule, they actually finished the Science Lecture Hallsin impressive time. All I'm saying is a little courtesy would help at times when students are working inclassrooms. The window-breaking extravaganza is probably something that could wait until afterclasses are out. Don't get me wrong â€” I'm not blaming the construction company completely. Afterall, they do have a job to do. I blame Western. One would think Western would give a little moreconsideration to the students who are paying to learn during this construction garbage. But, we have torespect the master plan and just put up with this crap. Maybe I'm a little bitter because other studentsand I are being forced to deal with this unbearable noise so the class of 2002 can enjoy a worthless skybridge jutting out from the library. Now that is spending university money wisely. I realize that for Western to actually listen to the concerns of students is a stretch, but if not for those at Western now, consider those in the future. We have all seen the master plan â€” it is only going to get worse from now on. InWestern's quest to become the University of Washington, it is alienating the alumni who would support itin the future. â€” Kristin Darland, Sports editor The Western Front Editor: Lisa L.

It is full of snippy, useless "reports" that may get a person interested in a story but normallydoes not fill their curiosity. It gives a person 20 seconds to grasp an event and then moves on to the next item. No rewind. No review. No contemplation. If something grabs your attention, you can't just stopand re-read it to marvel at this new knowledge you have found. Compare the average television newspiece to an article in a respected daily paper. The "piece" starts with a quick introduction to grab theviewer's attention, then moves into the event. When a reporter has about 20 seconds of air time to fill in a story, the majority of the story (background, other related issues, etc.) isn't, given the time and spacedeserved. An average article is full of information. It is concrete, right there in your face. If you don'tunderstand something, you can read it again. You have the information concerning an issue right there in front of your face. No questions asked, no confusion. You won't have to ask, "What was that? Howmany people were there? What did he just say?" It is easy to see, plain and simple. Television newsdoesn't give its viewers the opportunity to choose what news is important to them. They have an agenda, a timeline and everything moves forward according to plan. They decide how much time of your lifeshould be dedicated to a story. They have to fit in commercials and puff pieces. While print journalists face this decision also, it is not based on their intended audiences attention span. Instead, it is on theirinterest. An article begins with the most important information first so a reader may decide if they wishto continue, and if the article is of no interest, they can move to something else in that page, or inanother section. On television, the evening news must keep a viewer's attention, or they may changethe channel. They want to keep you moving along with the stories so you don't get bored, which meansless information. Think back a few years. If you are from Seattle, you might remember a certain littleearthquake. Or you might not. It was pretty small, but you couldn't tell by the news coverage itreceived. There was more animosity from the average citizen towards the television stations then therewas for just having lived through an earthquake. The size was around 3.0 on the Richter Scale, withminimal damage and a few injuries â€” something that might frighten some people. It'sunderstandable to interrupt prime-time television with a report about it for a minute or two. Instead, localstations ran more than an hour of coverage on the quake as if it were the "Big One," interrupting theseason finale of "Seinfeld" â€” NOT a good idea. They interviewed people who all gave the same story:their house shook, they were scared and if the reporter got lucky, someone's dog had a revelation a fewminutes before the event. Television news broadcasting doesn't always follow through on its claims of"hard news fast." Information is few and far between. It may be good for those on the go, but the averagedaily paper has many more stories with greater detail than any nightly news program. So if you reallywant the news and have some time, pick up a newspaper. A half hour of reading can be moreinformative than watching a half hour of irrelevant tid-bits in the life and times of the televised world.^^^^^^^ffl: l f Â§ | j ^ ^ to 250 words on a n y : t o p i c r : \ ^ ' r e ^ ^ | ; ^ ^ ^ | | ^ ^ ^ ^^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ l l^ l i l i i h l ^ ' ^ d libelous content.

Absolutely no increase in sales, property, or general taxes The new stadium andexhibition center will be owned by the people, and built by a strong public/private partnership thatincludes substantial private investment. Bottom line: for the most part, those who choose to attendevents at the stadium and exhibition center, those who play the lottery, and visitors to King County willpay for it. At the same time, the project will have absolutely no negative impact on Washington Stateschools, roads, or public safety. Here's how the funding works... A $100 million in private investment,guaranteed by Paul Allen A Allen's personal guarantee that he will pay for any construction costoverruns A New, sports-related lottery games A State-approved sales tax credits and deferrals A Anextension (but not an increase) of King County's hotel/motel tax (paid primarily by tourists) A Facilityadmission and parking fees In the end, these revenues will actually exceed the full amount required to build the new stadium and exhibition center. Extra revenues will provide assurance that state generalfunds will not be used. After this, excess revenues will be directed to the construction and maintenanceof youth play fields across the state. A world-class facility the whole state can enjoy Compared to theKingdome, the new stadium and exhibition center will be a vast improvement in co fort, convenience,and accessibility for all members of our state's diverse communitiesâ€” and it will bring many newevents to Washington fans. The new indoor exhibition center will be home to the boat show, the homeshow, the auto show, and many other events. The open-air stadium will feature natural grass, and 70%of the spectators will be covered. State-of-the- art amenities will include: A 1,440 seats for the disabled(including companions) compared to 70 at the Kingdome A Wider concourses A 12 elevatorscompared to 3 now at the Kingdome A Nearly twice the restroom facility capacity as the Kingdome A 50% more space for exhibitions than the Kingdome Among the exciting events the facility is designed to host...professional and amateur soccer...the World Cup ...the Olympics...professional and collegefootball...trade shows...community festivals...and much more. AERIAL VIEW, SHOWING NEWSTADIUM, NEW INDOOR EXHIBITION CENTER, AND BASEBALL PARK. Remember the day theKingdome roof fell in? That disaster left property taxpayers with a $70 million hangover. This adds up to$5 million a year in property tax debt for which our taxpayers receive no services. In fact, the Kingdomehas cost taxpayers more in the last 2i/2 years for repairs than the original construction costs...andnow $42 million more is needed for basic repairs. In short, the Kingdome is an aging facility that willcontinue to need more repairs, more attention, and more tax dollars if we don't replace it. The goodnews? The funding package for the new stadium and exhibition center will retire all Kingdome debt, andfree the property taxes for better purposes. Furthermore, the Seahawks will lease the new stadium for20 years. If the team is sold, the lease will stay in effect and 10% of the proceeds of the sale will godirectly to the State of Washington.

This has been another year of progress, although marked by the uncertainties of a world not at peace. Recorded in this book are the events and personalities of the year. It is our hope that our skippers-the mem-bers of the faculty- and our fellow crew members -the students-will find this book in years to come a cherished remembrance of the fruitful 1951 voyage of the stalwart Viking ship. 57aneuwond ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [vii] ---------- Administration Building ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [viii] ---------- Edens Hall ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [ix] ---------- Men's Residence Hall ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [x] ---------- Campus School ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xi] ---------- Library ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xii] ---------- Senior Hall Heating Plant ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xiii] ---------- Auditorium-Music Building ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xiv] ---------- Industrial Arts Building ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xv] ---------- Physical Education Building ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xvi] ---------- Administration Charting the Course ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xvii] ---------- [no text this page] ---------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xviii] ---------- Guardians of Growth Dr. Haggard Important discussions pertaining to the com-- pletion and furnishing of the new Auditorium-Music building headed the lengthy list of projects carried on by the Board of Trustees during the past year. Capable representation from the College was assured by the presence of the Board at the many education meetings throughout the state. Prepara-tion and presentation of the 1951-1953 budget and active participation on the joint board of trustees of the three Washington colleges of education ac-cented fully the accomplishments of the present board. Under President W. W. Haggard's leadership, WWCE has successfully carried forward its purpose of providing for the educational needs of the state. Highlight of the year for the president was the completion of the $1,200,000 Auditorium-M u s i c building. Always busy with educational and civic responsibilities, Dr. Haggard found time during the year to accept the honor of serving on a special committee of the American Association of Teachers Colleges for the purpose of re-evaluating teacher training institution accreditation. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xix] ---------- [no text this page] ---------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [xx] ---------- [no text this page] ---------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 17 ---------- Sharing adjacent offices and sharing in the duties of student supervision are Western's two friendly deans, C. W. McDonald for the men and Miss Lorraine Powers for t he women. Finding part-time jobs for self-supporting students is the big task of Dean McDonald, while Dean Powers lends much of her time to the direc-tion of social activities and organ-ized living groups. ... 74e Whect Conferring frequently on person-nel problems this year were Dr. Merle Kuder, director of student personnel; Registrar Donald Fer-ris, and his new assistant, William O'Neil. Every student at Western is assured of courteous considera-tion from this hard-working trio. Although the junior high section of the Campus School was closed this year, there has been no let-up in responsibilities for Dr. Raymond F. Hawk. The number of student teachers reached a new high and student teachers were in a greater number of city and county schools than ever before.

They found at Western a ready welcome and a satisfying personal attention through the College's counseling system. The new life offered no insurmountable ob-stacles for this vigorous group of students. The class quickly organized, elected officers and an ad-viser, and prepared for its role in the Homecoming celebration. When freshman bonfire time rolled around, every freshman, as well as every student and grad who had ever been a freshman, was thrilled by the way this class defended its bonfire. The freshmen found themselves heirs to a twenty-one year-old challenge. The challenge was written as the dedication of the 1929 edition of this yearbook: "All the bright successes and darker shortcomings of present students may seem to future students but idle play. Today's students here offer a challenge to the class assembled twenty-five years hence to surpass the achievement of today. To that class of 1954 we respectfully dedicate this yearbook." The class of 1954-this year's freshmen-set out to surpass the "bright successes" of a generation ago. Individually, and as a group, they contributed to all phases of college life. They added a welcome touch of youth and buoyancy to their classes, to pep rallies, and to all the activities they entered.

Continuing to build on the progress they had made as freshmen, the sophomores found an op-portunity to start the year off right in the "Real Western" Homecoming. The class took second place in the window display competition with their dis-play in the Sears-Roebuck window. Attractive Shir-ley Simpson of Enumclaw was the sophomore prin-cess in Queen Sigrid's royal court. Sophomores provided an answer to the prob-lem of "The Thing" winter quarter in a mixer which they sponsored. Decorations paid tribute to the mythical thing, and a contest provided additional enjoyment. Phil Ager's band provided the music. Spring quarter brought the traditional class picnic which supplied hot dogs, fun, and recreation for all. Popular Martin Smith of Bremerton was select-ed to serve as class president, with Clyde Hobbs, Kent, vice-president. Peggy Strauss of Tacoma held the position of secretary-treasurer. The class was advised by Harvey Gelder of the mathematics de-partment. Ralph Bennett of Battleground was sophomore delegate to the Interclub Council. Goals became clearly defined for most sopho-mores during their second year. A majority-250 students-were enrolled in teacher education. Fifty-four were in the junior college curriculum, intend-ing to transfer to some other college at the end of the year. Another fifty were seeking to gain the Bachelor of Arts degree in arts and sciences.

Last year's class inaugurated the Jun-ior Prom, while this year's class went one step further by electing a prince and princess to rule over the affair. The entire college elected royalty from a group of eight, nominated by the Junior class. Those nominated were: Lois French, Betty Bru-seth, Mildred Peter, and Beverly Carlson for princess; and Pat "Spider" Clyde, Arnie Kiug, Dick Pedersen and Tom Springer for prince. Those who finally reigned were Mildred Peter and Dick Pedersen. The class boasted a few outstanding mem-bers: a Homecoming queen, Mary Elbie, and a co-winner of the football inspirational award, Norm Hash. Bud Scott did some outstanding playing on the first string in basketball. The class also sponsored a mixer. Under the benevolent and inspiring leader-ship of Dr. David McDonald the officers of the Junior class found much cooperation in their work. Dick Pedersen served as president, Chuck Gesdahl as vice president, Mary Pagels as treas- urer, and Mildred Peter as secretary.

The Board began the year by purchasing a television set for the lounge. Purchase of equipment for the lounge in the new Auditorium- Music building was also an accomplishment of the governing council this year. Budget problems confronted the Board when en-rollment failed to come up to the estimated figure and departmental allotments had to be revised. With some well-planned slashing, the student body administration managed to steer clear of red ink and deficit financing. An exchange of talent shows with Central Washington college was planned and carried out by the Board. President Hickenbottom, besides wielding the gavel at weekly board meetings, made various com-mittee appointments, kept the student government in smooth functioning order, and kept the student body informed through his weekly "Fireside Chat." Harry Pagels, vice-president, proved his cap-abilities as a showman in supervising student as-semblies and helped get out the vote in the quarter-ly elections. Board of Control--SEATED: A.

Promotion of the welfare of all clubs and their membership is the aim of the Interclub Council. Delegates to the ICC are the presidents or author-ized representatives of each club and class on cam-pus. The council this year admitted two new clubs, the Industrial Arts Club and the Future Teachers of America. A major problem for the council was the deter-mination of standards for national honorary socie-ties, which were admitted for the first time this year. Miss Nora Cummins and Miss Lorraine Powers, advisers, assisted the council in its important rela-tions with the faculty student affairs committee.

The Norsemen's Club, an organization consist-ing of all male students enrolled at WWCE, en-deavors to unite and plan special social activities for the male population of the college, and to serve their common interests. The officers work in har-mony with the Interclub Council and the Dean of Men in their activities. The business and social affairs of the club have been conducted this year under the capable leader-ship of President Don Minahan and the Norsemen Commission. The commission, governing body of the club, consists of the elected officers and one representative from each of the four classes. This group plans the yearly program and conducts the business affairs of the association between t h e regularly scheduled meetings. High on the list of yearly social affairs is the semi-formal dance sponsored each fall quarter by the Norsemen. The Leopold Hotel's Crystal Ball-room was the scene of the 1950 affair, held on October 20. Guests danced to the music of Phil Ager and his orchestra. Each guest of a Norseman received a carnation corsage. Climaxing the year's social activities was the Norsemen Spring informal dance, Friday, April 20.

Anchored firmly in the memories of this year at WWCE will be a bright picture of the active Associated Women Students organization. Ruby Johnson, president, piloted the college-wide feminine organization as it sailed through a sea of successful activities. Along with the many events which filled the year's calendar, the AWS carried on, throughout the year, a drive to finance the education of a dis-placed student from Europe. As a result of this drive, Western expects to have a European student on campus in the fall. Fund-raising projects included a student talent assembly, decorated Christmas tree, popcorn sales, and solicitations from civic organiza-tions. The drive, which began under the direction of Zona Daverin, was carried forward this year by June Dillman. The AWS successfully staged the High School Leaders' Conference, which was held on campus February 23. Under the direction of Marian Stefani, the organization welcomed and played host to ap-proximately 100 high school g i r ls representing schools in Whatcom, Skagit, King, Snohomish, San Juan, and Island counties. The theme of the con-ference, "Art of Living," was carried out in group discussions on club activities and finances and pro-fitable recreation hours. The visitors toured the campus, attended a fashion show, and were enter-tained by the Music Department, the Thespians, Home Economics Department, and the Square and Circle Club. Throughout the year, teas were held in the friendly atmosphere of the AWS lounge on Thurs-day afternoons. A tolo in Edens Hall, directed by Gerry Berg, marked the end of fall quarter.

Gillie supervised the editorial staff in gathering the news and putting the paper into its final form. Published each Friday, the eight-page tabloid reviewed the events of the week and reflected student opinion on current topics. Versatile Elaine Daverin stepped into the business manager's post in spring quarter after Williams resigned. STAFF Providing an accurate and interest-ing weekly account of college events was the primary aim of the Western Wash-ington Collegian this year. This aim was accomplished by a staff which was well equipped, in training and in interest, to perform the weekly assignments. Editor Gillie's right-hand man was Managing Editor Keith Stearns, whose experience the editor found valuable in all phases of production. Other reliable, hard-working assistants who worked throughout the year were Jean Olson, society editor; Mort Gronseth, sports editor; and Clint Doherty, news editor. Elaine Daverin, who was at home in all phases of newspaper work, devoted many hours to the Collegian. The camera of Ed Mapes caught glimpses of student activities for the press. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [69] ---------- Editor Joyce Gillie, assistants Audrey Adams and Jo Ann Hoyt, plan Klipsun layouts.

While Collegian editor Paul Gillie directed the publication of the college weekly, his wife, Joyce, work-ed in the adjacent office at the task of producing the 1951 Klipsun. K e i t h Stearns capably filled the post of Klip-sun business manager. STAFF Two problems plagued the Klipsun staff this year: finances and deadlines. The annual was originally planned a year ago, before the outbreak of the Korean war, when WWCE was expecting a record enrollment. Then came the war, the draft, and the slump in enrollment. Plans for the expansion of the book had to be shelved; several revisions eliminated non-essential pages; economy became a watchword. The other obstacle, deadlines, was met with success by the industrious staff, although deadlines seemed to come all too soon and all too frequently. Assistants to the editor were Audrey Adams and Jo Ann Hoyt. Section editors were Muriel Weber and Bill Haycock, classes; Mort Gronseth, sports; and Carol Methven, women's sports. Ed Mapes, as staff photographer, covered with his cam-era the activities of the year. The com-piling editors, Donna Seldomridge and Laura Lee Sovde, indexed the names of everyone pictured in the book. Copy was written by Cecil Thomas, Eugene Wil-liams, Pat Somers, and was edited by Paul Gillie. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [70] ---------- Joining the Crew Joining the Viking crew involves careful pre-parations which are completed during the period known as Opening Week.

Capitalizing on the "Western" in WWCE's title, co-chairmen Leila Brown and Bud Hill selected "Western Roundup" as the theme of the year's colorful celebration. Grads were designated as "strays" and rounded up for a return visit to the old corral, which bore the name of "Rocking W Ranch" for the weekend festivities. Plaid shirts, jeans, ten-gallon hats, and other ranch duds were in style throughout the celebration. The perfect choice for Homecoming Queen was blonde, blue-eyed Mary Elbie, who wore the crown of Queen Sigrid XIII. Her court was composed of four of Western's most lovely co-eds: Ruby John-son, Mildred Peter, Shirley Simpson, and Jeanne Lambert. Competition among clubs and houses in the skit and display contests kept the Homecoming spirit soaring. At the freshman bonfire, the Eastern Savage was burned in effigy, but his ghost returned to haunt the Vikings the next day, as they dropped a thrilling, but heart- breaking, decision to their cross-state rivals. Amid the merriment and excitement, grads paused for a reunion luncheon at Edens hall. The celebration ended with the Queen's Ball at the armory, sponsored by the W Club.

On two occasions during the year club members made overnight trips to Baker Lodge. Be-sides indulging in their favorite sport, ski enthus-iasts enjoyed square dancing and fireside singing on their trips. Ski movies were shown at most meet-ings of the club. The club benefits its members by offering special rates on bus fare, ski insurance, and lessons. SKI CLUB FRONT Row: C. Lund, (Sec.), V. Hoof, L. Gad-dis, Y. West (Treas.), P. Hale, J. Anderson, D.

The club serves to bring together the staff members of the student publications for social activities and discussion of matters of mutual interest. Rushing the season the club chose a date in the middle of February for a picnic at Lakewood. The indoor affair was rated as successful by every-one present. To show their support of the football team and to promote good relations with the ath-letic department, the Press Club donated a ther-mos jug to the team during football season. The "hoedown," or more formally, Square and Circle Club, continues the early American practice of gathering for both formal and informal social dance affairs. Though new to the campus, being first organized last year, the club has expanded rapidly and carries on a full program of activities. Club members presented a skit for Homecom-ing, sponsored an all-school dance for the benefit of WSSF, and visited nearby communities and granges.

The club is open to participants in forensic events such as debate, oratory, interpretive reading, and extem-poraneous speaking. Members who have participated in at least one successful intercollegiate debate are honored by the club with the presentation of a key. These awards were presented this year at a banquet held during winter quarter. Scrolls were also awarded in recog-nition of the three degrees of achievement: frater-nity, proficiency, and honor.

The first two purposes were accomplished through club meetings and social affairs. Demonstra-tions, talks, and discussions were held dealing with theatrical subjects. Service to the college was performed by the club which cared for stage properties and spon-sored assemblies. The club conducted the WSSF kick-off assembly and performed for the High School Leaders' Conference. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 84 ---------- OFF CAMPUS WOMEN FRONT Row: G.

O6f- campus4 Women One of the liveliest feminine organizations is the club for Off-Campus Women-those who do not live in organized houses or dormitories. Through this organization, co-eds who do not live in organ-ized residence houses may participate in college activities. The club has been successful in bringing together the many women students residing off-campus. Among the club's activities this year were a candy sale, Sunday movie for WSSF, a rec hour, swimming parties, and a hike and picnic. Page eighty-four eolecofnmcts Best known for their annual waffle supper are the Colheconomists, an organization of women in-terested in home economics. The proceeds of the waffle supper are donated to WSSF. The club had a busy season this year, beginning with a tea for freshman girls. A school in Japan received from the club a Christmas gift subscription to a home eco-nomics magazine. A special honor came to the club and to the col-lege when Claretta Erdman was elected state presi-dent of the organization at a convention in Seattle. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [85] ---------- ed c The game of chess holds a special fascination for the members of the college Chess Club, all of whom share a devotion to the pastime. Nearly every spare moment the chess players have, they can be found huddling over a chess board, en-grossed in the moves and strategy of the game. Club members engage in zestful competition with one another and in interclub rivalry with other en-thusiasts. Each year a trophy is awarded to the student taking highest honors in an all-college tour-nament. ateraaa'onal Retaeoa4 Included in a very successful year of activities for the oldest club on campus were an international banquet, the annual conference at the College of Puget Sound, and a spring picnic. At International Relations club meetings, discussions of important current topics were held. The club heard several outstanding speakers during the year, including Dr. Frederick T.

Blue Triangle is the college branch of the Young Women's Christian Association. The or-ganization devotes itself to service projects and holds occasional social meetings. Page eighty-six ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 87 ---------- Scholarsip Society For many years Western's only honorary so-ciety, the Scholarship Society continued this year to recognize those students who had achieved out-standing success in their academic work. Member-ship in the society is offered to those who have maintained a grade point average of 3.5 for three consecutive quarters and who have an overall aver-age of 3.2. This accomplishment is rewarded with the presentation of scholarship pins at the society's rgeular banquets. Impressive but simple ceremonies are held to initiate new members, who are acquaint-ed with the standards and ethics of the organization. Kappa eta Pi Western's first national honorary society, Kap-pa Delta Pi, was chartered this year, with an orig-inal membership of twenty-five upperclassmen and graduates in the field of education. The organization of this group is considered to be a significant step forward in the development of the graduate school in education, which has been in existence for only a few years. Kappa Delta Pi is a coeducational organiza-tion, open to education majors who have attained a 3.0 grade point average. It seeks to develop and encourage excellence in the field of education.

As the Industrial Arts department moved into larger and more modern quarters this year in the new Arts Building, and as a larger number of stu- dents were enrolled in some phases of the I.A. curriculum, the need arose for a new club for the many students interested in this subject. This need was met by the organizationl of the Industrial Arts club, which soon became one of the largest clubs on campus. The new club provided an adequate program for those who share a common interest in creative craftsmanship, offering enriching experiences through a schedule of demonstrations, speakers, and discussions. eCdldod ECducation Prospective primary teachers find the Associa-tion for Childhood Education to be a club which offers stimulating meetings and activities. This has been a busy year for the club, with the ACE inter-national convention held this spring at Seattle. Several members of the local organization attended the convention and took an active part in it. Workshop meetings and demonstrations con-tributed to the professional growth of the club members. ACE contributed to the life of the col-lege by sponsoring the year's first all-school mixer, by assisting in the Education Week program, and by soliciting faculty contributions to WSSF.

Nona Cochran led the group this year in planning its busy program, working in close cooperation with the local coun-cil of churches. The breakfasts offered inspiring messages and pleasant fellowship as did the eve-ning fireside meetings and other council activities. Page ninety Highlighting the social calendar of the Col-lege Christian Fellowship this year was the semi-formal Valentine's banquet which was held at Fishermen's Cove. This interdenominational organization is devoted to promoting Christian fellowship and spiritual development among its members. This year they enjoyed hearing sev-eral distinguished speakers at their regular week-ly evening Bible studies and holding their per-iodic singspirations. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 91 ---------- fadate Sedoolt. The graduate school has steadily increased its enrollment since the summer of 1947, the year that the state legislature authorized WWCE to grant the degree of Master in Education. At that time there were four students on campus seeking the master's degree. The number has steadily risen and now stands at 16 students for the regular school year. Last summer 87 people were engaged in some phase of meeting the stiff requirements for this .Saolasin E amrest honor. To date, seven master's degrees have been awarded. Requirements for the degree are: advance ap-proval for all courses taken in the candidate's grad-uate program, a grade average of "B," a thesis or field project, required courses in education, and forty-five quarter hours of graduate work of which at least three quarters must be performed in resi-dence.

Fall Production.. 32G4 4~e4 N/(aw Produced in penthouse style in the Edens Hall Blue room, the comedy show, "John Loves Mary," attracted and delighted playgoers in the fall quarter presentation of the Division of Drama. V i c t o r Hoppe directed the show, assisted by June Suther-land, and the leading roles were played by Bill Jones and Jerri Mosier. Humorous romantic complications were fea-tured in Norman Krasna's comedy. The story dealt with the romantic involvements and entanglements of a discharged soldier. Hoppe's directorial skill and Page ninety-two the excellent performances of the cast made ef-fective use of the humorous situations. The informal penthouse atmosphere added to the enjoyment of the show, which was presented four times. Refreshments were served during inter-mission. In addition to the two leading roles, other mem-bers of the cast were June Sutherland, Dick Molby, Leila Brown, Alice Davis, Allen Reamer, D ic k Usitalo, Max McLain, Jim McHeffey, and D o n Pearsall. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 93 ---------- UPPER LEFT: "Harvey" cast-D.

Dowd, portrayed by Jim McHeffey, brought many a chuckle to the capacity audiences who witnessed the Division of Drama's winter pro-duction of "Harvey," a popular comedy written by Mary Chase. More than incidental to enjoyment of the show was the levity with which it treated mod-ern psychology and the impliction that complete sanity is not necessarily complete happiness. Harvey, the six-foot rabbit, was visible only to the amiable tippler, Elwood, but the entire aud-ience was aware of his presence, which is a tribute to the skillful pantomiming of McHeffey and the sup-port of others in the cast. Showgoers found in the production the char-acteristic marks of Victor Hoppe's direction-ap-propriate casting, careful mounting, and effective timing. Five performances of "Harvey" were given in the Campus School auditorium. Other members of the cast included Don Pear-sall, Jeri Mosier, Hank Rogers, Barbara McHargue, Dick Wahl, MDarilyn Barber, Ben Cary, Nita Clothier, Allen Reamer, and June Sutherland. Roger Pederson was technical director and special art work was done by Lois French and Allen Reamer. Page ninety-three ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 94 ---------- FRONT Row: C. Peters, R. Dews, G.

Walter, played for a joint state House and Senate congregation at Olympia while on a tour which took them to many schools across the state. The concert was an invitational af-fair and the Viks presented a very com-mendable performance. Bob Pennington, Carol Irwin, and Jean Landahl filled the respective positions of drum major and majorettes when the blue and white clad band was afoot for the var-ious parades and also for the complicated maneuvers which the band presented at half time of the Vik football contests.

The band also played at most of the home basketball games, many school as-semblies, and the college pep rallies. On Monday afternoons at four o'clock, when the weather was nice, the band could be seen and heard practicing on the lawn in front of the Campus school. When the weather was inclement the band still prac-ticed, and the strains of music could be heard coming from the music room at the same hour. Much of the success of this hard-work-ing outfit is due to the efforts of likeable Don Walter, the versatile Viking band master.

Regier, brought acclaim and credit to the campus for their out-standing performances. Of the 112 members of the Choir, 66 were chosen to perform in special assemblies and con-certs. In December they gave their beautiful Christ-mas concert, and in May the Choric concert. The choir was in constant demand to perform at num-erous service clubs. One outstanding event for the Choir was the tour in April. They appeared at fourteen high schools and on April 15 in Seattle sang over KOMO. This year a new attraction was made available. The Choir made an outstanding set of three recordings which have been put on sale. A very much sought-after group of singers this year is the Vocollegians. This mixed ensemble of 13 voices plays an important part in the music depart-ment at Western, and they delight all who listen to their colorful singing of madrigals. Another prominent group of singers is the col- lege quartet. The singers who made up the quartet were Bennett Asplund, Byron Winter, M e r v i n Sliger, and Clare Campbell. Their voices blend to-gether to create an atmosphere of beautiful music. Page ninety-seven ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 98 ---------- Music Club-FRONT Row: M. James, B. Irwin, E. B. Bergh, J.

Arion ub... For Musi Majors Music majors, and members of the band and choir organized this year a new club, which was known at first as the Music Club. Later in the year, the name Arion Club was selected, honoring the early Greek patron of music. The club fulfilled several purposes and took an active part in campus affairs and social life. Among its outstanding activities was the reception given for the mmebers of the Juilliard Quartet. The four young musicians in the quartet discussed with club members "Trends in Modern Music." Other visiting Artist and Lecture series musicians were entertained by the club. The new club took first place in the Homecom-ing Skit competition with the delightful "Lollypor Aria," consisting of Alfred Lunde a n d Richard Hawk. This routine was popular all year, and was presented before various civic groups and was part of the exchange assembly. Page ninety-eight I ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page [99] ---------- Wodwined The woodwind quintet, under the direction of Don Walter, entertain-ed and delighted audiences locally and throughout the state during the past year. Besides appearing frequently on the winter quarter band tour, the quintet also made numerous other appearances here on radio, in schools throughout the county, and in student assemblies. Although of relatively new origin in the WWC music department, the group was given wide acclaim in all its performances. Srn 2uatet The string quartet, consisting of Anne Battey, first violin; Noreen Thorsen, second violin; Dr. Frank D'Andrea, viola; and Suzanne Pal-mer, 'cello, provides ensemble ex-perience for the advanced string players of the music department. The quartet also studies the great literature in the field, which it per-forms at college assemblies, recitals, broadcasts, and community p r o-grams. Besides being a member of the quartet, Dr. D'Andrea also acts as director of the group. rasT Sextet A relatively full schedule of events kept the brass sextet busy making appearances during the past year. These were highlighted by their playing in the band tour throughout the state during winter quarter, a Kiwanis reception, and a PTA convention. Members of the sextet include Dick Horn and Bob Brown, trumpets; Ray Mof-fit, French horn; Martin Smith, trombone; Marilou Milton, bari-tone horn; and Bruce Gillette, bass. Faculty direction is by Don Wal-ter. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 100 ---------- Hash and Taylor get a few tips on playing the game. Student tea time. Pep?

Page one hundred seventeen ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 118 ---------- Vern Weible Al Compton Cliff Hash Clayton Hood Gerald Royal Rufus Winters Bob Cline Charles Hodder Dwaine Lambert Tom Taylor In his eighteenth year of coaching at the college on the hill, head football coach Charles F. Lappenbusch had a most successful season. "Lappy," as most of the players call him, led the team to a record of seven wins, two defeats, and one tie. The team ended the season in second place in the tough Evergreen Conference, as high as any Western team has finished in this league. This fall Lappy had the right men for his original straight line defense system and proved his point that it is a tough nut to crack. The offense this year also had new punch and added scoring power in his single wing formation. The Lappenbusch system was the talk of the nation this fall, being featured in a nation-wide news wire service story. Around the athletic department they say that "if you have an afternoon to spend, stop in and ask Lappy about the straight line." How-ever, proof of the product is in the playing, and the Viking record this year plus the fact that more and more Western grads are using the straight line as coaches, is that kind of proof.

Ray Ciszek, Jim Hollings-worth, and Les Smith were the men who assisted Coach Lappenbusch in the organization of the winning Viking eleven. Ciszek took charge of the ends, teaching them to get under the passes on offense and to stop the opposing backs on defense. In his third year at Western, Ray is a "foreigner" from the University of Illinois, but a loyal supporter of the blue and white. Hollingsworth, a guard at Western in 1938- 39-40, coached the guards and tackles and took care of patching up injuries. It was Jim who fixed things if anything went wrong with some valuable muscles. Because he was always on the job, few of the players were out for long. Another graduate of the Lappenbusch sys-tem is Les Smith. A quarterback in his playing days, Smith handled t he important backfield coaching chores while assisting in the injury-fixing department. It was the work of these three men that helped Coach Lappenbusch build the 1950 team FOOTBALL COACHES--Ray Ciszek, Les Smith, C. F. Lappenbusch to greatness. and Jim Hollingsworth.

Coach Bill McDonald realized one ambition this year, and because of this joined the hilltop swimming team. After beating Eastern on February 24, "Big Bill" was thrown in the college pool. The victory over Eastern was on the last game of the year, and brought the season to a fitting climax. The victory over the Savages gave the Vikings 13 vic-tories to 12 defeats for the year, and they finished in fifth place in the tough Evergreen conference. Coach McDonald completed his fifth year as head coach of the blue and white. This year the big coach (he is just eighty inches tall) had one of his most successful seasons. If the draft doesn't get too many of the returning team members, as well as those from this year's successful junior varsity, the Vikings will be knocking on the door of the upper heights in the Evergreen conference in next year's play.

Coach Ray Hyatt met an enthusiastic turnout of newcomers and developed them into a winning team. Opponents this year included Grays Harbor Junior College, Eastern Washington, Univer-sity of British Columbia, and the University of Washington, one of the top teams in the country. Eastern was defeated twice by the Viking swimmers. With the facilities available at Western and the profession-al coaching of Ray Hyatt, the local swim team may be ex-pected to become one of the main athletic attractions in the future. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 131 ---------- Student spectators fill the stands to watch the outcome of the meet.

Starting with an almost new ball club of transfers and fresh-men, head coach Joe Martin molded a formidable nine, which held one of the more unsual records in baseball history in their first six games. In these contests they won two games, lost two, and tied two. For the first time in many a year, the Martinmen took on the University of Washington Huskies and gave an excellent ac-count of themselves. In the first series at Seattle the Huskies won the first game 3 to 2, but were held to a 3 to 3 count in eight in-nings in the second contest. Returning to Bellingham the following week the blue and white squad earned a split with the Huskies. "Spud" Walley, a transfer from the "U," was the boy who pitched the Western victory. In the other series, against Seattle Pacific in Seattle, the Viks won one and tied the other in 11 innings. This was the extent of the season as this page went to press.

Track, the only spring Evergreen conference sport to survive the slash, blossoms out with beaming rays, as Coach Ray Ciszek's squad took their first triangular meet of the year. The blue and white squad, led by record- breaking Artis Larsson, wouldn't be denied as they ran both St. Mar-tin's and the College of Puget Sound into the ground. The final score was: Western 65%, St. Martin's 48% and College of Puget Sound 48. Larsson's record was in the shot put, which he threw 45 feet 31/2 inches to establish a new record for Western Washington college. In their two previous dual meets the Hilltoppers hadn't fared too well, but hopes were high as the Klipsun went to press for smoother sailing for the blue and white clad Viking. ----------- Klipsun, 1951 - Page 136 ---------- Coach Sam Carver, Kenny Jones, Bob Jacobs, Rowan Cotton, Max Wenger, Bob Skidmore Mostly a new group of men met Coach Sam Carver for their first golf turnout at the beginning of spring quarter.

Golf was included in the list of casualties as an Evergreen conference sport, as it was voted out by the coaches and athletic 974 directors of the conference. With ideal weather and an almost complete new group of golfers Coach Carver set out to mold a golf team. By the time of the first match, the boys were ready for the test. They continued to show well in the independent matches they were able to schedule.

A young team, so far as experience is concerned, reported at the beginning of spring quarter. One of the highlights of the season was a match against the Pacific C o a s t conference champions, the Washington Huskies. The purple and gold downed Western's pride in straight sets, but the Huskies have made a habit of that with coast conference schools. They couldn't break the habit. Although tennis is not on the list of Ever-green sports this spring-it was dropped along with the major sport of baseball, and the other spring minor sport, golf-Western had a full schedule and gave those interested in varsity competition plenty of activity in their sport.

"This is not Jesse Jackson's campaign, i t ' s the people's campaign," Jackson said in opening his speech to more than one hundred students at the VikingUnion. The younger Jackson, 22, finished his college degree in fewer than four years in order to devote time to his father's campaign. Much of Jackson's speech addressed the importance of education."We know that schools at their worst are better than jails at their best," Jackson said, citing 91 percentof inmates in Texas jails are high school dropouts. Brains instead of bombs was his messageconcerning military spending versus investment in education. "America's strongest defense is not inguided missiles, but in developed minds, he said." Jackson demanded students fulfill their responsibilityto society and their generation. "The generations of the '50s, '60s and '70s fought to end the VietnamWar and to gain civil rights. But the generation of the '80s, our generation, must fight to end economicviolence," he said, criticizing the economic conditions brought about by Reagan administration taxpolicies, which he said favor the rich and violate the poor. See JACKSON on p.3 Man arrested in Kappashooting Pete Kendall Bellingham Police Explorer scouts searched the area around the Ridgewaycomplex for the gun allegedly used to shoot Western student Gene Baker as he delivered newspapersSaturday. By Brian Bean and Douglas Buell staff editors Bellingham police officers arrested a 20-year-old Bellingham man Saturday after he allegedly shot a Western student who was deliveringnewspapers to Ridgeway Kappa Theta. Michael J. Bilson, 20, 1418 Ellis St., is scheduled to bearraigned at 4 p.m. today in Whatcom County Superior Court. He is being held in the county jail on$150,000 bail. Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Dan Gibson said he plans to charge Bilson with first-degree assault, vehicle prowl and third-degree theft. "I anticipate we'll file them by sometime (today)," he said. The felony assault charge carries a penalty of five to seven years. The victim, Gene Baker, 22,810 Buchanan Towers, was treated at St. Luke's Hospital after being shot twice. He was releasedSunday morning. Police said Baker, an engineering technology student, and his girlfriend, Anita Poor,19, 386 Higginson Hall, were delivering the Seattle Post- Intelligencer in Kappa Theta at about 4 a.m.Upon returning to his 1980 Mazda B-2000 pickup, which was parked on Highland Drive in front of thehall, Baker discovered the driver's door open and his keys, check book and driver's license missing. Hesaid he noticed a man, whom he earlier had passed hitchhiking on West College Way, walking northdown Highland Drive. The man allegedly was tearing out pages from what looked like Baker's checkbook and throwing them over his shoulder. Baker said he ran after the man and confronted him about 40 yards from the truck. The man allegedly turned and fired twice at Baker with a small-caliber handgun.Bellingham Police Sgt. Randy Carroll said the first bullet passed through Baker's right arm just abovethe elbow. The second entered the back of his left shoulder and lodged in his chest, missing all vitalorgans. Doctors removed the bullet Saturday morning. The man fled north on Highland Drive after theshooting, Carroll said. Police arrested Bilson near the corner of Garden and Holly streets at about4:45 a.m. Saturday. Bellingham Police Explorer Cadets found the gun, a 45- caliber automatic, whichallegedly was used in the shooting and a black nylon coat in a garbage can at 600 E. Maple St. atabout 10:30 a.m. Saturday. Carroll said Baker and Poor ran back to Kappa Theta after the shooting tofind help. Paper carriers are allowed residence hall keys to deliver after hours. Attempts, however, to use the duty phone in the main lounge were unsuccessful, so Baker ran to the nearest dorm room. Poorcontinued to try to contact police on the phone. "He pounded on our door at about 4 (a.m.)," said ScottWilson, 19, a Kappa Theta resident. "We were both asleep. It sounded like he was going to knock the door right off. "We keep our door unlocked, and he managed to find his way in," Wilson added.

By Jennifer Wynn staff reporter Archbishop Raymond Hunthausen pleaded with more than 500 people Sunday in the Viking Union Lounge to helpchange America's mindset from one of nuclear arms idolatry to peace. "I would propose that we as apeople and a nation forego our present policy of military deterrence and mutually assured destruction,and in its place, pursue with all our resources a national vision and policy of peace," Hunthausen said.Hunthausen, archbishop of the Seattle Catholic Archdiocese and primary leader of the church in westernWashington, received tumultuous applause from supporters who praised his message of hope.Bellingham resident Alberta Clancy said, "I consider him a prophet in his time." Fairhaven senior LetritiaFlerchinger said she was touched by Hunthausen's speech. "I wanted to cry. I was really impressedwith him (Hunthausen). Some friends of mine told me to come see him. I didn't know much about him. Ireally liked his look on things from a world view," she said. Hunthausen delivered a lecture entitled"Economic Pastoral in Light of the Pastoral on Peace." Pastorals are documents prepared by the some300 bishops in the United States. The pastorals advocate the end of the nuclear arms race and promotean increased effort to help the poor. The nationally known archbishop, referring to the INF nucleararms treaty, said although the new treaty between the United States and the Soviet Union is a steptoward peace, it is marred by excessive U.S. military spending. "This new generation of weaponscomes with an enormous price tag. Those who pay the highest cost have little or no voice in thedebate," he said, referring to the poor. He added, "While defense spending increases, the welfareprograms that most affect the poor are being cut approximately in half." The 1988 defense budget is aproposed $322 billion, he said. Furthermore, the United States has spent $1.9 trillion on armaments inthe past seven years. These figures have created an economy that is becoming more and more captive to military spending, he said. Many areas of the country depend on military spending for economic well-being, which reinforces the American ideal of peace through strength, Hunthausen said. "We havecreated a growing, vested interest in maintaining high military budgets," he said. "This leads to highmilitary spending, a movement, which is increasingly difficult to slow. Hunthausen said continuedmilitary development has fostered a deeply embedded See HUNTHAUSEN onp.2 ---------- Western Front - 1988 March 8 - Page 2 ---------- 2 WESTERN FRONT TUESDAY, MARCH 8,1988 ;ilsiiiiiiii Parking tags can be renewed Quarterlyparking permits may be renewed for spring through March 11.

Accounting students give income taxhelp By Michael Reeves Hunthausen favors aid for poor HUNTHAUSEN, from p. 1 philosophy that seesmilitary action as a primary tool of international relations. It has become a normalcy, which isjustified by the United States' deterrence policy, he said. ' Hunthausen explained in his quiet mannerthat history harbors this philosophy. "Our history books are full of the wars of Louis XIV and Napoleon,"he said, "yet they say little about the Swiss who have watched all those empires crumple in their turn."We share in the process of shaping the universal vision of peace ... Only by getting directly andpersonally involved can we begin to shape a peaceful future." Hunthausen's half-hour lecture wasfollowed by comments from other speakers. Jennifer Cowan, a member of the Catholic Student Coalition, said, "We all have a stake in (the world community). We all can make a difference." staff reporterMembers of Western's Accounting Society and other university accounting students are taking partin a yearly Internal Revenue Service program, which offers tax assistance to Whatcom County residents. The program, Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA), offers free assistance in preparation of taxreturns and gives answers to general tax questions for anyone needing help. "We're servicing the lowincome, the handicapped, the non- English speaking people and those people who don't haveaccess to funds or access to preparers that can do their taxes for them, or don't understand thetaxes," said Bill Sutton, local representative of the IRS District Director. "We want to see that thosepeople try to get an understanding of how to prepare their returns so next year they won't come back,"Sutton said. "If they do come back we won't turn them away, but we'd like them to do it themselves."Volunteers for the VITA program had to qualify by preparing sample returns for the IRS tax forms1040EZ and 1040A with at least 70-percent accuracy. Students involved in the program receive nocredit or monetary compensation for their work, Sutton said. It is voluntary. "The students get somebenefit for their classes and their grades," he said. "On the other hand, I think, the citizens of the county and surrounding area get . more of a benefit. The IRS gets a great benefit too." Involvement in VITA isnot limited to -Western students. Training classes were offered to anyone who was interested involunteering. Most volunteers are Western business students with some experience in tax preparationor accounting, however. "If it wasn't for the students at Western, we probably wouldn't have a successfulVITA program," Sutton said. Assistance is available now until April 15 at five locations. On campus,help is available between 3:30 and 7:30 p.m. Wednesdays in the lobby of the Viking Union (exceptMarch 16 and 23).

Jackson Jesse Tinsley JonathonJackson was in town Saturday to stump for his father, presidential candidate Jesse Jackson.JACKSON, from p. 1 He said Reagan got into office on a kind of "dyslexia." "He said the poor had toomuch money and the rich, too little. He became a reverse Robin Hood," Jackson said. Jackson alsochided recent tax laws that demand students pay taxes on their financial aid. Jackson said othercandidates seek to make America competitive by lowering workers wages, but that Jesse Jacksonwould strive to make America competitive by raising the wages of the third world. "Slave laboranywhere undercuts organized labor everywhere. South Korean, Taiwanese, and South Africanlaborers do not have the right to organize.They do not have the right to a liveable wage; they do not havethe right to safety and health in their work environment. They do not take our jobs from us; ourcorporations take our jobs to them," he said. Jackson challenged students to reject drugs and criticized Reagan's cutting of the Coast Guard, the drug enforcement agency off the southern coast, where majordrug shipments are received. At the Fairhaven Library speech, the young Jackson criticized the press for ignoring the "Our campaign is a rainbow and that's what our thrust has been all along." â€”Jonathan Jackson success of his father's campaign. The audience of more than 150 Jackson supporters, whichfilled the library hall, responded by demanding the whereabouts of the local press. Apparently, the major Bellingham media representatives were not present. Jackson's son spoke in Seattle and receivedsome, attention by the press and TV media there. The Fairhaven speech was followed by aDemocratic Caucus training session. When asked about opinions by many voters that his father is"unelectable," he said racism as a campaign issue has weakened. "People like bold leadership and anew direction," he said. Jesse Jackson took second in Minnesota, Vermont and Maine, which arepredominately white states. "Our campaign is a rainbow and that's what our thrust has been all along,"he said. "To say he's unelectable is not fair. There are many candidates that are unelectable, but it's not Jackson. We have great national support, the primaries and caucuses so far have proven that. Thepeople will determine who is electable.

Chestnut 733-6440 ---------- Western Front - 1988 March 8 - Page 4 ---------- 4 WESTERN FRONT TUESDAY, MARCH 8, Shooting triggers new look at gun issue By Michael Reeves staff reporter Western's campus has its share of guns, but they are not in the possession of theUniversity Police. Saturday's shooting of a student delivering papers on campus has confirmed someopinions in the campus population that the police here should be armed. And it has caused others toreevaluate their position on the issue. John Gray, Associated Students director at-large to theUniversity Services Council, said because of the incident, emotions possibly could dictate some of the resulting actions. Gray previously has represented factions opposed to arming University Police. Gray,despite not changing his personal stand on the gun issue, said the shooting has caused him genuineconcern about the whole issue. "I'm torn, I really am. I'm torn between the safety of the police force andthe safety of the students," said Gray. "I'm concerned with the increased chance of hurting someone." The shooting of a student Saturday morning illuminated the presence of handguns on Western's campusand brought the dangers they pose startlingly close to home. A nearly split student vote, a 12-9 FacultySenate vote - each opposed to arming University Police -- and a canceled March 3 Board of Trustees votelater, this article analyzes the effect the shooting has had on public opinion. University Police haveremained steadfast in stressing their need to have guns, and the weekend shooting only strenthenedthat need, said one officer. University Police Lt. Chuck Page, brief in his words, said, "I think it's better for us to keep our mouths shut at this time. I think the action speaks louder than words." The shooting was not the first gun-related incident police have contended with on campus this quarter. On Feb. 11, a man, found to be in possession of an illegally concealed handgun, had been spending nights in theHumanities Building. The man ignored authorities, who warned him to stay off campus, and he later wasserved a misdemeanor warrant for criminal tresspass for failure to comply. Early Saturday morning, Jan.30, University Police responded to a complaint in Alert students help gunshot victim SHOOTING, fromp. 1 didn't look too good. He didn't collapse, but he was kind of slumped against the door." Wilson got out of bed and turned on the lights. "He was yelling, 'I got shot! I got shot!"' Wilson said. "I turned on the lights and there was blood all around. I called 911 and Bob (Diem, his roommate) grabbed a pair ofpants and went to find the RA." Gina Leonetti, an 18-year-old freshman who lives next door to Wilsonand Diem, was in the downstairs laundry room when she heard Baker pounding on the door. When shewent upstairs, she said Wilson was on the phone to the police. - "There was a pool of blood (inWilson's room)," she said. "I just thought, 'My God, what happened?'" Leonetti and Mari Douvier, aKappa Theta resident adviser, performed first aid on Baker until paramedics arrived. Wilson saidUniversity Police officers arrived about two minutes after he called. Kappa Theta Resident DirectorTina Fuchs commended all the students involved for quickly calling police and using first aid. "They were incredible. They did all the right things." Birnam Wood to investigate allegations that students attendinga party had handguns in their possession. University Police Lt. Lee Brown said officers encountered no guns. Saturday's shooting could raise new questions among the Western Board of Trustees, thegoverning body who will decide whether University Police should be issued handguns. The March 3trustees meeting where the final decision on the gun issue is expected to have been made wascanceled. "The incident is something that everyone is going to have to take into consideration. Itbrings to light the possibilities (of gun-related campus crimes)," said Belling-ham Police Sgt. RandyCarroll. "I just hope everybody understands the gravity of the situation," Carroll said. "A shooting issomething that's not taken lightly. It was one of the students and that's really unfortunate." In a Feb.25 special election, only four votes separated the opponents from the supporters of the policy to armcampus police officers. Of the 1,072 students who voted, 538, or 50.2 percent, opposed arming thepolice, while 534, or 49.8 percent, supported the policy. The Faculty Senate, on Jan. 25, voted by amargin of 12-9 to present its recommendation to the trustees that the request by the University Policebe denied. Through both the Faculty Senate vote and the student vote it is apparent how equally dividedthe campus community is on the issue. Faculty Senate President George Mariz, expressing his ownviews, said the shooting will cast a different light on the situation but could not say if it would have anyeffect on the final outcome. An unofficial polling yesterday of some students who voted in the specialelection on campus showed that Saturday's shooting has left opinions mixed but still split. "I think thatthe students will be more aware of the issue when it comes this close to home," Gray said. "I thinkpeople are going to make the decision with their emotions." Some students now have changed theiropinion, favoring armed officers. Others reiterated their opposition to arming the University Police, arguing that guns in the hands of the campus cops would not have prevented the shooting. The outcome, theycontend, would still have been the same. "Would the incident have been alleviated if the campus copshad guns?" graduate student Jeff Popp asked. "No it wouldn't." Gray said he still believes arming theUniversity Police is not the answer but also said that with this development, he thinks the police probably will get their guns. Fairhaven sophomore Cari Damm insisted if, in a hypothetical situation, armedUniversity Police had been near the Kappa Theta dorm where the shooting occurred, more people mighthave been injured. "(Armed Police) wouldn't have prevented the shooting," Damm said. "It would havemaybe resulted in another death." At the same time, the shootirfg convinced other students whooriginally opposed equipping police with firearms that they would be better protected from violentcrimes in the campus community if police received guns. Sophomore business student David Glocksaid, "I voted against it, but my opinion did change after I heard about (the shooting)." Those whoadvocate arming the campus cops argued that if University Police had been on the scene they wouldhave been helpless in defense of both themselves and the student who was involved. Carroll said that ifthe suspect had decided to retaliate against an officer in some way, he would not have stopped to think if the officer was armed or not.

Kappa lounge honors Ross By Kristi Warren staff reporter As a symbol of the bondbetween student life and Western's administration, Ridgeway Kappa- Theta residents dedicated theirmain lounge Sunday in remembrance of Western's late President G. Robert Ross and vicepresidents Don C Cole and Jeanene Delille. A committee of Kappa-Theta students led a donationdrive, which culminated in the dedication ceremony. Kappa-Theta residents and guests gatheredSunday afternoon at 1:30, as resident and lounge dedication committee member Aaron Milasichexplained the Ross Lounge dedication is a way to cement the bonds between student life andWestern's administration. Renee Jones, resident and committee member, supported Milasich's views. "Administration is here for us. We have recognized them and they are more than happy to work for andwith us. Students tend to think of the administration as way above us, but they are just people too,"Jones said. Guest speakers Sam Kelly, graduate dean and vice president of academic affairs, SaundraTaylor, vice president of student affairs and interim vice president of university advancement, and KayRich, director of university residences, spoke of their interest in Western's residence system and theircommitment to academic excellence. The students' response to the death of the three administratorsserves as an opportunity to make this dedication a living memorial, said Erik Schlocker, resident andlounge dedication committee member. "It was nice to see that the residents cared enough to give â€¢toward the-plaque," Schlocker said. Hall funds could not be used toward the dedication ceremonybecause the memorial was not a priority to all of the Kappa-Theta residents, Milasich said. Donationswere collected by the committee.

Or perhaps something else is to blame.Jonathan Jackson campaigned for his father, Jesse, in Bel-lingham Saturday. He spoke to two audiences, about 300 people, about the host of crucial issues our country today faces. Economic and socialinstability at home, conflict at areas of "strategic importance," the nuclear threat ~ all these may seemmore distant than riots in Watts or friends coming home in bags, but there's no guarantee it won't happenagain. Yet many citizens who choose not to attend campaign speeches still want to be informed aboutwhat transpires there. They rely on our free press to keep them informed. Those citizens were notrepresented by the Bellingham-area media at either of Jackson's speeches Saturday. When organizersinformed Tlie Bettingham Herald of the coming event, they said The Herald gave three main reasons itwouldn't cover the speech. First, it was too close to Super Tuesday; second, giving coverage to just onecampaign might not be fair; third, it was the candidate's son, not the candidate, who appeared. TlieHerald's main concern seemed to be fairness. And of all the radio stations in the area, only KPUG tapedthe speech. Yesterday, Sen. Steve Symms, R-Idaho, stopped at Bell-ingham International Airport tostump for Republican candidate Bob Dole. A reporter and photographer from Tlie Herald were there,along with representatives from three area radio stations. The refusal of members of the media to cover aspeech that can aid all voters, Democratic and Republican, as they search to define the issues and thecandidates, is pathetic no matter what the reasons given. Move down South if y'all's itchin' to voteWelcome to "Stupor" Tuesday, a 20-state, mega-colossal race for Democratic and Republican caucusdelegates, which in the end, particularly in Washington, will live up to it's definition ~ a state where themind and senses are dulled. It's unfortunate Washington would join a regional electoral entourage ofSouthern Democratic oligarchs whose only ploy is to keep a strong-running Dixie white boy in the race.That's where the delegates are. In the South. Thus, that's where all of the presidential candidates are now. Washington would be much better off to join California, Oregon and other western states and formregional caucuses. They seem to be the emerging trend on campaign trails. Western states and theirprogressive ideals often clash with the conservative drivel that festers in the South. Just to show howinsignificant the Washington-caucuses are, Tlie New York Times recently insulted the state in a story onthe 20 states holding nominating contests today. Tlie Times focused on the South, where 14 of the states are. It gave nominal mention to Massachusetts, Rhode Island and American Samoa. But they didn'teven mention Washington.

What we should expect along the presidential road this week: mud slinging. 3771 k/.SSFRONT Cartoon represents the opinion of Julie Martin Wake up and smell the caucus Don't vote? Don'tcomplain So what are you going to do today? Pump iron? Polish your nails? Read a trashy novel? Getstoned? Sleep? Go ahead, defend noble endeavors, but what about a presidential candidate? Not onyour list of priorities? You want to have something to complain about for the next four years -- you didn'tvote for the new president and can't be held accountable for possible social injustices incurred. Arespectable tortoise shell to crawl into, perhaps. Today is Super Tuesday and it means Washingtonstate and a considerable segment of the nation will choose presidential nominees. Who cares? I do.It's every citizen's duty to not only care, but to act. Apathy, complacency, ignorance and frustration are not good excuses for remaining uninvolved. "None of the candidates get me excited." That's anignorant excuse. This year's contest promises to be as lively an event David Kuester staff reporter asthis decade can hope for. But, even that won't budge some couch potatoes. A tremendous opportunityfor change is presenting itself to this society. Many people are terrified of change. They would ratherhave a sterile routine where each daily event is completely predictable and BMW payments can bemade without fear of default. That's idealistic and boring. The biggest issue of this election iseconomics. Ronald Reagan's trickle-down theory has worked, but only partially. He's succeeded instacking the cash at the top, but it appears to be stagnated there. It will take a bold leader to unblockthe dam of greed. Many people believe Ronald Reagan won in 1984 by duping the college-agedconstituency. He waived the magic carrot in front of their faces, promising to deliver the new AmericanDream ~ his policies will make everyone a millionaire. Most college students are from middle-classorigins. Thus, they can regard themselves as protective, servile parasites of the upper economic half,waiting for the crumbs to dribble down to their panting, flattering mouths or, they can see themselves asthe bold leaders of the lower half with a responsibility to usher in an enlightened era of social andeconomic equality. An American's ability to choose a leader is not only a right or privilege, but a duty. Don't complain about things you haven't even tried to influence. Get involved or move to a countrywhere political involvement is not an option. Litter is butt-ugly^ â€¢ Earth is not your ashtray Hello,Careless Smoker, today we are going to learn the difference between toilet paper and your butt. Toiletpaper, made of extremely porous cellulose, is easily biodegradable. Flushability is the toilet papermanufacturer's prime concern (followed closely by softness, ply, design and color). Returned to theenvironment under immense water pressure, TP breaks down quickly in septic tanks and sewers.Those charming little cigarette ends, fashioned out of cottony stuff (sometimes fiberglass) wrapped inpaper, are by no means adept at disintegration. They are not dissoluable by nature, and they are notdissoluable in nature. But you, Careless Smoker, fail to realize this. You take it upon yourself topopulate our roads Alana Warner staff reporter and walkways with your offensive debris, flicking yourbutts afar at bus stops, tossing them out your window on the freeway and dumping your entireautomobile ashtray in parking lots (almost as disgusting a habit as leaving well-filled disposable diapersin adjacent parking stalls). Do you know that those butts, which you so aimlessly abandon all overcreation just lie there forever? (Well, maybe not forever, but they certainly don't disguise themselves asasphalt or concrete anytime soon after they've been deserted.) It's not a pretty sight. And as for you,Extra Careless Smoker, it's time to learn not to toss and trample your butt on the floor. All too manytimes you have concluded upon entering a fast food restaurant that you no longer wanted an extra ---------- Western Front - 1988 March 8 - Page 7 ---------- TUESDAY, MARCH 8,1988 WESTERN FRONT 7 Christianity is not an ideology The Front, I was drawn to Alana Warner's editorial on Jimmy Swaggart by the obituary notice for Christianity. I appreciate andagree with her concern that the Christian faith has become for many people not a personal convictionof the truth, but an excuse to do whatever they like with God's guaranteed forgiveness. However, I wouldlike to dispute the suggestion that Christianity ever was an ideology I'll define an ideology as a view oflife that is accepted uncritically from a culture. It operates at the level of group suggestion (orsocial conditioning) rather than at that of individual conscious thinking. Two examples are theVictorian belief in "progress" and the post-World War II belief in the ability of science to answer everyquestion in life. Does Christianity fall into this category? I think not. A study of church history shows that there is a "hard-core" of Christian belief and experience, which has persisted for 2,000 years inradically different social systems and ideologies, and which thrives today on every continent. This is not to say that Christianity does not seek cultural expression of its core beliefs or that the culture has notat times had more impact on ( Say it up | FRONT Advertise with us! i ^ 676:3161_J Christianity thanvice versa. This latter case would be my evaluation of televangelism. Furthermore, the Bible itself isthe prime refutation of any theory that views Christianity as an ideology. Set in widely differing societal backgrounds, the books of the Bible contain this same central core of faith throughout. This faithconsists of a belief in God as King and Father and in man as a being whose primary need is religiousrather than social, political or economic. As for the excuse: Biblical Christianity sets before humanitywhat some call an impossible standard (see Matt. 5-7). It asserts that we all are accountable to eachother and to God for our actions. Since none of us have met God's standard, and thus stand under His judgment, we might make excuses for ourselves and blame it on society or our upbringing ortelevangelism. If this were the end of the story, Christianity would rightly be seen as a dour, moralisticreligion. However, the story does go on. God has chosen, through the death and resurrection of Christ,to forgive anyone who will not make excuses for himself, who will lay aside his proud (and mistaken)notion that he is the master of his own destiny, and who will come to Him who is our King and Father.And yes, this forgiveness can include even Jimmy Swaggart. Kevin Hansen Front cartoonist showswhite bias The Fmnt, Alright, WHO is going to confront Mike Carroll and pry open his t e r r i b l y - b i a s e d - w h i t e - Christian-amerikkaner mind? He reminds me of a cross between George Bush andJames Dean (rebel without a clue). However, his "humor" is often more disgusting and dangerous than it first appears. I cite his "predictions *88" in example, and his portrayal of Jesse Jackson in particular.As a person of Jewish descent, I find Mr. Carroll's use of our heritage to discredit and "fan the fires ofracism" not only tasteless, but a dangerous symptom of a shadowy mind set which is lumbering out ofits dark bunker once again. Ask yourself, Mike, (again and again) WHY are there "too many honkys"(Mr. Carroll's phrase) at Western? Could it be something deeply rooted in the American Dream? Orperhaps more of a recurring nightmare - like racism/white supremacy? Maybe it's simply a matter ofclass economics? Whatever it is, we are not amused. We are fed up.

Does everyone remember last year when a second set of double doors wasadded to the north end of Carver Gym? The idea of having double doors is to insulate the building tocreate a dead airspace so that it will cost less to heat. Now then, has anyone noticed the heater that isgoing mad and pumping heat in between these double doors?!! This is purely nonsensical. The wholeidea of the double doors is to conserve heat, but by having the heater running, all that is happening is the outside is being heated! This totally negates the effect of the doors; they might as well not have putthem in at all!! Would someone please unplug that heater â€” or at least move it inside?

ByCraig Daly sports editor Coach Brad Jackson and his Western men's basketball team may still bewondering what the license plate number was of the team that ran over them after yesterday's roadtrip to Ellensburg. Central Washington University showed no mercy to the visiting Vikings, thrashing them 72-51 last night in game two in a best-of- three playoff series to determine the leaguechampionship. . Western's offensive output, or lack of, was its lowest so far this season. The Vikesaverage about 90 points per game. Fortunately for Western, now 26-7 overall, game three brings theteam back to the friendly confines of Sam Carver Gym Wednesday. Tickets went on sale at 8 a.m.this morning and can be purchased at the Athletic Department in Carver Gym throughout today andtomorrow. Tipoff time is 7:30 p.m. The Wildcats will bring their one-man-show, all-district-forward CarlAaron. After scoring 37 points in the opening game of the series, Aaron scorched the nets for another 32 points last night. That was better than all of Western's starting five put together. James Johnsonscored 15 points and Tim Dickerson pumped in 12, but the other three starters, Manny Kimmie, EricSchurman and Rod Whatley contributed just three points. Dickerson's 12 points gave him a careertotal of 1,320 and moved him into second place on the all-time Western scoring list. The Vikings shot ameasly 17 of 59 from the field and were beaten 50-35 on the boards. The Wildcats had ten offensiverebounds in the first half, including six by Art Haskins who finished with 14 points and a game-highnine rebounds. Central, now 23-10, scored on seven of its first eight possessions to grab a 14-2 lead fiveminutes into the game. Western made its only run of the game, slicing the Wildcat lead to 20-15 with9:50 left in the half. But Central, thanks to Haskin's tenacity on the offensive boards, regained itscomposure and led at the half, 40-25. Perhaps the biggest loss of all for the Vikes was guard RayOotsey who left the game early in the second half with an injured ankle. The Vikings narrowedCentral's lead to 45-32, three minutes into the half. With Ootsey on the bench and three Westernstarters having an off night, Central went on a 14-4 run to push its lead to 59-36. After that, Westernnever got closer than 16 points. Guard shoots for records By John Sleeper staff reporter Off thebasketball court, Tim Dickerson looks as physically imposing as Barney Fife. Face it, his 6-foot, 155-pound frame makes him look like a "before" model in a Charles Atlas ad. But on the court, the seniorguard for the Western men's basketball team takes on a bit more impressive presence. ThroughSunday: * Dickerson has piled up 1,308 points, third on Western's all-time career scoring list, two points behind Kevin Bryant, a Viking assistant coach. * He is the school's career assist leader (393and counting). * D i c k e r s o n holds the Vikings' career record for most games (119) and minutesplayed (3,136). * He averages better than 15 points a game and shoots better than 80 percent from thefree-throw line. * He is Western's- leader from three-point range this season, hitting 86-of-187 (47percent). Name one d e p u t y in Mayberry, N.C., with comparable stats. ' But to hear Dickerson tell it, individual achievements pale in the light of team success. "I hadn't even thought about (the all-timescoring mark) until halfway through the season when people started telling me about it," he said. "It'sgreat to be up there in the school's elite -- I'm sure I'll look back on it in thirty years and remember, sothat's kind of neat â€” but it's more important the team wins." Three years ago, however, Dickersonalmost made a decision that would have made his accomplishments non-existent. Fresh from leadingBelling-ham High School to 32 straight Northwest League victories and a fourth-place finish in the StateClass AA Tournament, Dickerson stepped in to very different surroundings in his first season as aViking in 1984-85. "It wasn't so much that I didn't play," Dickerson said. "I averaged 17 minutes a game.But there was a big adjustment with the coach (Bill Westphal). There were things with the style of play I didn't agree with." Dickerson also was less than enthralled with Western's 11-17 record and the lack ofenthusiasm the school and community displayed over the team. "When I played at Belling-ham, thegym would be packed every night," Dickerson said. "At Western games there would be, maybe, 100people." So, after averaging 5.3 points a game his freshman year, Dicker-son decided to hang up hissneakers and concentrate more on getting his degree in elementary education. Three days later,Westphal Tim Dickerson (12) drives the lane for two. Alycien Van Droof quit. Back came Dickerson. "Idecided to give it another try," he said. It's safe to say Western Coach Brad Jackson is happy Dickerson did. . posing," Jackson said after a recent game. "But when you watch him day in and day out, yourealize he's one of the best guards around at this level." Sort of a Barney Fife with a "Tim's not thatphysically im- jump shot. Recruiting already under way for men's team By Hank Schwarz staff reporterIt seems it would be difficult to improve a basketball team that's only two wins away from the NAIATournament in Kansas City, Mo. But for Western Coach Brad Jackson, the improving already has begun by recruiting for next year. Jackson's search for new basketball talent will continue until the first game of the 1988-89 season. But why start recruiting during the playoffs? "It's a year-round job that goes with coaching," Jackson said, as he opened a file cabinet full of letters on possible recruits. "You always tryto improve each year and when you get a head start, it helps." The recruiting process is difficultbecause NAIA schools such as Western must wait to find out how the NCAA Division schools willrecruit. Another problem is that high school players think they're better then they actually are. "Playersthat come out of high school must realize at what level they can play. Manny Kimmie, for instance,received a couple of offers from NCAA schools to play basketball. He's competitive enough to play atthat level, but he knew he wouldn't be playing much, or he would have been sent to a community collegefor a year. He didn't want all that moving around and he wanted to play, so he came here and is startingfor us," Jackson said. As for next year, Jackson will be concentrating on recruiting players with bigphysical size and strength. "Right now we have three (big) guys that have said they're interested inplaying here. Two of the three are centers and one is a forward-center. All are good size and very goodathletes," he said. Ed Briggs is one of the three, and most likely will be in a Viking uniform next year.The 6-foot-8 center went to Chemeketa Community College in Salem, Ore., but currently is out of school. Jackson said Briggs took time away from school to work, but now he wants to return to college and gethis degree. The two other possible recruits currently are playing at the community college level. Theyare Nick Klungel, a 6-foot-9 center from Skagit Valley Comunity College and Mark Henke, a 6-foot-6forward-center from Green River Comunity College. "Klungel and Henke have both shown interest inWestern, but they haven't committed," Jackson said. "These guys would help us tremendously." "Ittook me a year-and-a-halt to recruit James (Johnson). That's why it's a year-round job," Jackson said."You can't depend on a player to play for you. In James' case, it worked out. "Ray Ootsey was totallydifferent. I talked to him and two days later we got him. It's mind boggling sometimes." District Player ofthe Year Johnson, All-District guard Tim Dickerson, along with back-ups Mike Eisner and Garth Stroyanwill be replaced by those currently on the team, as well as through recruitment. Jackson said it's notgoing to be that tough to fill the spots. Filling the shoes - that's the hard part. ."We have two red-shirtguards in Dan Olsen and Scott Carlson that can fill Dickerson's spot," Jackson said. "But losing aplayer of Dickerson's caliber, you can't replace that." Next year's team may not be as strong as thisyear's team, but when the season starts and the team is selected, Jackson will be happy. "Who knows? We may be even better. You always want to improve, and that's what we're working on." ---------- Western Front - 1988 March 8 - Page 9 ---------- TUESDAY, MARCH 8,1988 WESTERN FRONT 9 =7T^2v Women's Contemporary Fashions .

Orwas it just one-third the way there? Whatever, the Vikings beat Central Washington University in theopening game of the best-of-t h r e e - g a m e D i s t r i c t 1 championship series, 78-75. Central, 23-10, beat Western 72-51 last night in game two. The Vikings, 26-7, will host the final game Wednesday.The winner of the series will earn a trip to Kansas City, Mo., for the NAIA national title. A capacity crowd of 3,000 at Sam Carver Gym saw Western withstand three obstacles: * An off night on the offensiveend by 6-6 senior forward James Johnson, the Vikings' District 1 player of the year. Johnson exited inthe first half after picking up his second foul five minutes into the game. Shut out in the first half.Johnson scored all 10 of his points in the second. * A 37-point. 11-rebound performance by Central'sall-district forward Carl Aaron, who almost single-handedly pulled the game out for the Wildcats. * Some whacko in the stands who threw a toilet-paper roll onto the floor five minutes into the game. It resulted in a two-point technical foul against the Vikings, which Aaron converted to give Central an 8-7 lead. Inother words, not an easy night, especially considering the enormity of the occasion caused both teamsto look, well, flat. "We'll take it," Western Coach Brad Jackson said. "We didn't show much patience onoffense. We'd make one or two passes and take a shot." Central Coach Dean Nicholson said histeam was plagued with the same affliction, which led to dismal shooting (Central 42 percent, Western46) from the field. "Both teams were a little nervous in the first half," Nicholson said. "Neither teamplayed very well, I thought. We had our moments, but didn't sustain it." The biggest moments for theWildcats came from Aaron, who scored 21 in the second half. He got little help on the offensive side, asonly center Dave Biwer (12 points), scored in double figures. Western countered with a balancedscoring attack, led by guard Ray Ootsey, who came off the bench to score 18 points. Tim Dickerson hit15 and Rod What-ley added 13. Ootsey scored 11 of his points via the free-throw line. The 5-11 juniorguard hit key free throws down the stretch to notch the win for the Vikings. Whatley scored six cf hispoints in a 10-2 Vikings run in the first half. Whatley hit a 12-foot jumper and two jump-hooks from thebaseline to give Western a 19- 12 lead 10 minutes into the game. The Wildcats held a brief 36- 35 leadlate in the first half, but Ootsey hit two free throws and Dickerson nailed a three-pointer to give theVikings a 40-38 halftime lead. Aaron led the Wildcats to their biggest lead, 60-55, with a series ofturnaround jumpers, offensive rebounds and free throws. But another 10-2 run by Western late in the game sewed up the victory. Ootsey hit three free throws to give the Vikings a 76-73 lead with 1:01 left.Aaron hit a jumper in the lane with 40 seconds left to cut the lead to one. . Dickerson made two freethrows with seven seconds left for the final margin. Central's Steve Evenson missed a three-pointattempt at the buzzer. Men's hoop notes Western Coach Brad Jackson benched District Player ofthe Year James Johnson five minutes into the first half of Saturday's Central Washington Universitygame after Johnson collected two quick fouls. Johnson didn't return until the start of the second half. "Iwas going to keep him on the bench for just a couple minutes," Jackson said. "But since we were pretty much in control and Tom (Rawlings) was playing well, I figured I'd save him for the second half." Themove turned out to be a good one as Johnson played 17 minutes in the second half, scoring all 10 of hispoints and grabbing six rebounds in that time. Both coaches had made pleas to the crowd, but fiveminutes into the game a roll of toilet paper came down onto the floor. The result was a two-shottechnical against Western. The technical foul was called on Western because of a new rule thatautomatically assesses a two-shot penalty to the team's fans for throwing debris onto the court. "Wefound out about the rule change a couple hours before the start. We (Jackson and Central CoachDean Nicholson) decided to announce to both (Western and Central) fans to refrain from throwing stuff on the court," Jackson said. "That fan must have not been thinking when he or she did it." â€¢ ^m w^ BMaw ^m Mil â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ ^m m Sitting in the student section behind face-painted fans was futureWestern basketball player Ed Briggs. The 6-foot-8 center from New York City attended the first game ofthe district finals last Saturday. "You can bet I'll be here next year," Briggs said. "I have two yearseligibility. I want to play basketball, graduate and have fun. I feel I'll do all three." Several NAIA schoolshave shown interest in Briggs, but Western is where he wants to be. "I could play for Central, Lewis-Clark State (College) or Seattle Pacific (University), but I want to play here for Coach Jackson. My oldcoach, Tim Hills, said good things about him and I was interested. When I talked to him (Jackson), Iknew Western was for me." ~ Hank Schwarz Hoop players consider team manager special By HankSchwarz staff reporter There's a collision on the court. The whistle blows as bodies sprawl on the floor.Suddenly, a small man bolts from a courtside chair, running like he was racing against Jesse Owenswith a towel flapping in the wind. He wipes the floor dry of sweat and sprints back to his seat. This manis Kevin Fenwick. The 5-foot-6 junior is in his first year as manager for the Western men's basketballteam, but you wouldn't know it if you saw him at work. Coach Brad Jackson describes Kevin asdedicated. "He loves what he does, and he's a service to the team," Jackson said. "Not only duringthe games and practices does he work hard, but if I need some filing done in my office, he's right theredoing it, no questions asked." Western players Eric Schur-man and Ray Ootsey agreed. "Enthusiastic!" Schurman said with a smile. "He always has a positive attitude towards the team. He's always therewith water and a kind word. That's what makes him special." "Kevin is energetic. Work, work, work."Ootsey said. "He's always doing something. He's never made anyone mad and he hasn't really messedanything up." Fenwick almost got his job by accident. "I was coming up here (Western) toconcentrate on school and that was it," he said. "But I turned in an application to Coach Jackson andhe called me in. The next thing I know is I got the job." The seriousness of his job is personal, but fundoes come with the territory. " O n our road t r i p to Whitworth (College) and Lewis- Clark (StateCollege), I was teasing (guard Tim) Dickerson about nothing in particular and I didn't let up. He said, 'I'll get you.' "That, night, there was a team meeting in the hotel room. So I kind of sat in the back andlistened. Then all the sudden, Coach Jackson and all the guys jumped me. I couldn't believe it. It was alot of fun though," Fenwick said, laughing. Not all of Fenwick's life has been fun. Earlier in the year, he was not doing well in classes and considered quitting. "I really was going to give it up," he said. "I went to talk to Coach Jackson and he helped me change my mind. He told me to stick it out and keep mychin up and everything would be alright. Plus some of the guys (players) told me to hang in there, so IPete Kendall It's a harmonious working relationship. The manager, Kevin Fenwick, supports the team, and the team supports the manager.

He wasn't sure in what direction his life was going, so he started attending church and became a Christian. Fenwick attributes his personal success as a servant to his mother and his belief in God."I'm a servant to these guys," Fenwick said he still hasn't decided what the future holds for him. Hewould like to work in a health-related field for Christian athletics, or even for the Sonics. But, " t h a t ' s a once in a lifetime thing," he said. For the time being, he's happy to be doing what he is now. "This isthe best team I've ever worked under. Not only because we're the best, but also because these guys are great They treat me like another player, not a manager," he said. National tournament of fers 51years of tradition ByJimWilkie staff reporter For 51 years the best small college basketball teams inthe country have been going to Kansas City, Mo., to crown a national champion. Beginning in 1937,the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics National Tournament is the oldest intercollegiatechampionship in the world. The National Collegiate Athletic Association started its national championship in 1939 and the National Invitational Tournament began in 1938. The NAIA has been billed as the"hardest tournament to win" because the champion has to win five games in less than a week. Thisyear's opening-round games start March 16, and the final is scheduled for March 22. Originally called the National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball, the NAIA championship has grown from an, eight-team invitational tournament into its present format of 32 district champions vying for the James Naismith Trophy. After Central Missouri University won the first two titles, the tournament expanded to 32teams in 1939. The number of tournament teams has remained the same since then with two exceptions. In 1944, the tournament was canceled because of wartime travel restrictions, and in 1945, only 16teams participated for the same reason. Western's best showing was in 1972 when the Vikings made itto the national tournament quarterfinals. Its only other appearance in Kansas City was a first-roundloss in 1960. The event claims to be the largest intercollegiate championship tournament because it starts with more than 150 teams competing for the 32 spots of the final rounds in Kansas City. Likelythe NAIA's biggest accomplishment was helping to break college basketball's color barrier by lettingthe first black player and first black school participate in national tournament competition. The women'sdivision of the NAIA was established in 1980 and had its first national tournament in 1981, also in Kansas City. When the tournament expanded from eight to 16 teams in 1984, it was transplanted to CedarRapids, Iowa for two years before being moved back to Kansas City. Western's women's team had itsbest year in 1986 with a quarterfinal appearance. ---------- Western Front - 1988 March 8 - Page 11 ---------- TUESDAY, MARCH 8,1988 WESTERN FRONT 11 Fans attend hoop games in record numbers By Butch Kamena staff reporter It wasn't all that long ago when most of the fans at Western basketball gameswere disguised as empty seats. But not so anymore. Western's men's basketball team averaged 1,824fans a game in 17 home dates this season and had 1,000 or more spectators at 15 of those games,according to statistics put out by Sports Information Director Paul Madison. By contrast, last seasonthe Vikings averaged 959 fans, and had five crowds of 1,000 or more. The season before that, 1985-86,the numbers were even lower, with a 773 average and only three games at 1,000-plus. One reason forthe surge in attendance has been Western's success on the court. Two seasons ago, the Vikings were11-15. They improved to 22-13 last season, and so far this season, hold a 26-6 mark. But winning maynot be the only factor. "It's a combination of things," Madison said. " I t ' s winning, promotion and aneffort by the athletic department to get fans out to the game."

Whatever the reason, attendance is up enough to start setting records. Saturday night'shome playoff game with Central Washington University was a sellout two-and-a- half hours before thedoors opened. In no other recorded instance has an NAIA District 1 game been sold out prior to theopening of the gates. Carver Gym has a 3,000-seat capacity for basketball. The last three tickets were bought by Gene Hogan, a student at Gonzaga University. Hogan, a Bellingham native, had a goodreason for attending the game. "I played basketball in high school with (Western guard) Tim Dickerson,"Hogan said. "He said he'd score 40 points tonight and he'd take me out to dinner if he didn't."Dickerson, who will be paying up because he only scored 15, has said after a number of games thisyear the crowd has been an inspiration. "The crowd should get 50 percent of this victory," he saidafter the Vikings defeated Simon Fraser University in the district s e m i f i n a l s . " T h e y weretremendous." The crowds have been flocking to Carver Gym since the beginning of the season.Western drew 1,300 fans in its opening game this season, a victory over Trinity Western University. Last season's home opener against the same opponent drew only 700. Five times this year, the crowd in3,000-seat Carver Gym has been estimated at 2,000 fans or more. "Crowds at all of our home gamesare continuously getting larger," Jackson said.

It's a philosophy that's helped Jackson build a .500 ballclub into one ofthe nation's best NAIA Division 1 basketball teams in just three years. "I'm a fairly aggressive person,"Jackson said. "It shows in our style of play, our coaching and our recruiting." Jackson played collegebasketball at Washington State University under Marv Harshman, Bob Greenwood and GeorgeRaveling. He has been coaching for 14 years in Washington, including a five-year run as an assistantcoach at Seattle Pacific University and one year as head coach of Eastside Catholic High School beforecoming to Western. Since taking over the role as head coach, Jackson has implemented a number ofstrategies to produce a winning team at Western. "Western has always had good talent in it'sbasketball program," Jackson said. "There were certain reasons why they hadn't been successful inthe past dealing with policies that go a long way back. Since I've been here, I've tried to help changesome of the problems facing the program." The biggest problem Jackson said he saw when he came.toWestern was the lack of student support at the games. "At the beginning of our first home game, therewere only a couple hundred people in attendance." Jackson said. "I asked one of my players whereeveryone was and he told me this was it." Jackson immediately started to find ways to promote theteam to the students and the Bellingham community. "Bellingham is a good sports town, and I couldsee there was interest in our program by the number of people who showed up at our bigger games,"Jackson said. "We are in a vicious circle where success breeds success and support. We just need to continue building a winning program." This year, home attendance has improved throughout the season. Jackson said the support from Western's men's basketball Coach Brad Jackson. the students and thecommunity has been tremendous and a factor in their wins at Carver Gym. Jackson, who also is theassistant athletic director, credits much of his team's success to Western's new athletic director,Lynda Goodrich. "Lynda is doing a great job in helping promote the basketball program, as well as thewhole athletic program," Jackson said. "Together we've taken a whole new tact on promoting ourprograms." Jackson said he wants the athletic program to become as successful as Western'sacademic programs. He said people want to be involved in athletics and part of winning programs.Jackson and Goodrich said they believe Western's strong athletic programs and academic programscompliment one another. "We have a great academic reputation, which is a strong influence in ourrecruiting of athletes," Jackson said. "I want my athletes to be successful academically, as well ason the court. At Western, athletes have the opportunity for both. My job is to help them along in bothareas. I have a goal to see all of my athletes succeed both on the court and off."

From coaching the most successful athletic team in the history of Western,to becoming one of only five female college athletic directors in the United States, Goodrich hascompiled some impressive accomplishments. In the past 17 years, Goodrich never has had a losingseason as coach of Western's women's basketball team. Her teams have been to the regional playoffs16 times and to the national tournament four times. Since joining the NAIA five years ago, thewomen's basketball team has reached the championship game or series five times. The last time theVikings reached the national tournament, they made it as far as the quarterfinals and finished in the topeight. ' ' W e h a v e a l w a ys maintained a standard of excellence in our program," Goodrich said.G o o d r i c h was named athletic director last spring after the retirement of Boyde Long. She has beenhighly credited with Western's athletic success this year. "The success of the football team and men'sbasketball was perfect timing for me as I came into this position," Goodrich said. "Our success hashelped generate excitement among the students and helped us in implementing promotions and ads." When Goodrich became athletic director, she said she wanted to help build a successful athleticprogram, which would parallel and enhance academic programs at Western. In doing so, she's taken a business marketing approach to promoting and selling Western athletics to the Bellingham area. " I'm trying to utilize marketing ideas to sell our programs to businesses and the general public," shesaid. "By having ticket give-a-ways to businesses around Bellingham, we can show the people whatWestern athletics has to offer. If our product is good, these people will come back for the next game. Ifeel like a novice at the moment, but I'm trying to learn the ideas to help sell what Western has to offer." "I think it is a realistic goal that we can sell out all of our major athletic programs," Goodrich said. "With revenue picked up from the major sports, we'll be able to put money forth in our other programs suchas volleyball and soccer." Being both a head coach and an athletic director can be time consuming anda lot of pressure for Goodrich, who finds it hard to do both at the See GOODRICH on p. 13SKIPPER'SÂ® STUDY BREAK SAVINGS Next time you have a study break, go to Skipper'sÂ® forsome brain food.

The voice of the Morning News Tribunesportswriter was quite clear. "Central (pause) 77, Western 76." The Western women had lost the finalgame of the NAIA District basketball championship series by a narrow margin and their season wasover. â€¢ But shed no tears for the Vikings, it was a very good year, and next year figures to be evenbetter. At the beginning of this season, only the most optimistic supporter would have thoughtWestern would be only a point away from claiming the district title. The Vikings started this season with a roster of four freshmen, four sophomores, three juniors and a lone senior who had but oneyear of playing experience. During the season, more obstacles popped up, like injuries, illness anda grueling nine-game road trip. But even with the deck stacked against them, the Vikings came awaywith a 22-9 record. Butch Kamena staff reporter Much of the credit should go to Coach LyndaGoodrich, who showed why she is in the NAIA Hall of Fame. Goodrich juggled lineups, both bynecessity and choice, throughout the season. Western had nine starting lineups during the season. Yet through it all, the Vikings kept winning. In December and early January, Western played nine-straightroad games and won eight of them. In mid-January, starting forward Lynn Munday went down withmononucleosis. After a period of adjustment, the Vikings played some of their best ball of the yearduring a six-game winning streak. Goodrich's steady hand was part of this success, but no matter howgood a job a coach does, the outcome still depends on the players. And the p l a y e r s came through.By the end of the season, Western was not only winning, but it was fun to watch. I've seen too manygames to count in the last three months, but some of the most enjoyable were Viking women's gameslate in the season. Whether it was because of the powerful drives of junior Anna Rabel, the inside play of senior Karen Gannon, freshman Cim Hanson and sophomore Alayna Keppler, or the steady floor playof sophomore Kerri Browitt, the Vikings were a fun, exciting, winning team. The best part about thisteam is that practically everyone will be back. Only Gannon will graduate. The rest will return, a yearstronger and a year more experienced. Sure, anything can happen between now and next season,and games will never be won on paper, but rather by sweat and determination. At this early date,however, hopes must be high for next year. I'm already looking forward to November. I don't think there'llbe any disappointing phone calls. Rabel provides leadership By Craig Daly sports editor It's hard tosingle out any heroes or superstars on the Western women's basketball team. Anna Rabel's team-leading 11 points and 6.9 rebounds per game averages were good, but not far above some of herteammates' statistics this season. But Rabel's role as a leader and team player, as well as her stats,helped her earn Western's lone spot on the NAIA District 1 All-Star Team. The 21-year-old junior fromSeattle almost didn't attend Western, opting instead for a basketball scholarship to Towson StateUniversity in Maryland. After a year at Towson, however, she decided to move back to Washington."It wasn't working out there," Rabel said. "I got a l i t t le homesick so I came back." She attendedBellevue Community College and made the basketball team, but had to red-shirt the season whenshe contracted mononucleosis. She finished the school year at nearby Seattle Central CommunityCollege and searched for a four-year college where she could display her basketball talents. Sheenrolled at Western in the fall of 1986. "I thought of walking on at the University of Washington, but Iknew that would be really hard and my dad liked Western, too," Rabel said. "When I was deciding to goto Western, I would say 'yeah, I'm thinking of going to Western,' and people would say Western's gotsuch a good reputation and Lynda Goodrich is such a good coach. Even though they heard our teamwas gonna be really young, they said we'd do really well anyway." Off the court, Rabel is pursuing adegree in broadcasting and is considering a career as a sports announcer. "I like to engineer and do alot of technical things," she said. "I haven't had any TV classes yet, but I'm definitely interested in it. Ithink sports broadcasting needs more women in that field." Rabel excelled in two sports while attendingRoosevelt High School. In basketball, she was a two-time all-Metro league selection. She averaged 24 points and 12 rebounds a game for the Roughriders in her senior year. During that time, Rabel was also a member of a Greenlake rowing club. The team, which consisted of top rowers from around Seattle,placed fourth at the Junior National Rowing Tournament in Oakridge, Tenn. Five of the rowers,including Rabel, were invited to try out for nationals and an opportunity to make to United Statesrowing team. She declined, deciding to concentrate on just basketball in college. With a young Westernbasketball team that's losing only one player to graduation, Rabel said Western and Seattle University will be the teams to beat next year. "I sit back and I look at the team we've got and I'm amazed. Wedid so well this year that next year, we're going to be excellent. I think we're going to be unstoppable." Pete Kendall Western's women's basketball Coach Lynda Goodrich. Goodrich sells athleticsGOODRICH, from p. 12 same time. "At times I feel like I'm wearing two hats," she said. "Both coaching and being athletic director are full-time j o b s . To do both is very demanding, but at the moment, I amhappy with my positionr" Goodrich has many personal long-term goals she said she would like tosomeday achieve. But for now she also has some goals she would like her team to reach. "I guess I'dhave to say that my long-term goal is to move more towards the administrative side of things, but at themoment, I love coaching and I have a number of goals I want to accomplish in that field before Imake any decisions," Goodrich said. "I would love to take my team to the national finals and get thenational championship. I think that's a very conceivable goal in the next few years." Above all ofGoodrich's team standards is academics. She said she is concerned with the percentage of studentathlete graduates and their grade point averages. All of Western's coaches put academic goals ahead ofeverything else, Goodrich said. "We are a wonderful model as an athletic academic institution. Ourcoaches all feel that the term 'student athlete'emphasizes the word student and is their No. 1 priority."

The three-member nordic team of Craig Andrus, Robert Woerne and Kennan Harveyqualified for the national races last weekend at the regional races on Mt. Bachelor in Oregon. They arethe first members of Western's ski team to qualify for the national championships and are projected toplace somewhere in the top 15 among the 22 teams competing. "Western is the only club team out ofover 90 teams that make up (the NCSA)," said Mark Sundseth, director of the Northwest Division ofCollege Ski Racing. "All of the other teams in the nation are varsity sports with scholarship offerings."The nordic team placed fifth in the nordic combined event at the regional race and qualified for thenational race in Minnesota. "Normally, a fifth-place finish wouldn't qualify a team for nationals," Andrus said. "It used to be that the top two finishers from each division qualified, but because the Midwestern and Northwest divisions are so strong, the national committee changed the rules allowing the top fiveteams from the two strongest divisions to qualify for nationals." Team members credit much of theirsuccess to Western's faculty. In past seasons, the team's classification as a club sport has made ithard for team members to be excused for training and racing. This year's success has begun to changethat. "We got a lot of support from our professors and the people in the athletic office," Woerne said."They gave us the time off to compete at the regional race and were very supportive the whole year." Allof the members said then-strengths lie in consistency. Each member led Western in Nordic eventsthroughout the season, and all are within a minute of each other in the races. "Craig and I are usuallywithin 10 seconds of each other," Harvey said. "That type of consistency makes for a strong finish inthe final standings." Western's nordic team also is the smallest of their division with only threemembers. Teams are allowed six members to race in a given event and most of the teams carry a fullallotment. "We've competed against the best teams in the nation already," Woerne said. "We hold ourown because we work well together. Some teams have one fast person, and one or two average people. The team will compete in the 15-kilometer open on Thursday and will finish with the 3-by-10- kilometerrelay on Saturday. Of the 22 teams that qualified for nationals, two of the five teams in the NorthwestDivision are expected to place in the top three and all are expected to place in the top 15. 647-03711414 Cornwall ^fenced someone with the confidence of a surgeon, the dedication of a marathoner the courage of an explorer.

Kathryn Lewis,women's health care nurse practitioner, said she conducted the survey to find out if women are alteringtheir sexual practices because of AIDS and to gather information for an on-campus AIDS program. Shestill is compiling data for the program. "Then we can target areas to find out why people aren't usinginformation they have," she said. Lewis said her findings indicate students remain largely ignorantabout the potentially fatal disease. She said it is interesting to note students don't considerthemselves at risk: only 28 percent said they would discuss a new partner's sexual history or intravenous drug use, and only 24 percent said they Men's poll says birth control OK By Paul Douglas â€¢ staffreporter A survey of men on Western's campus found 96 percent believe they should take someresponsibility for birth control. The Men's Resource Center recently completed results of a randomphone survey they conducted of 100 men on campus. Specifics areas studied included domestictasks, which refer to domestic responsibilities and attitudes toward careers, work and sex. Anotherinteresting statistic found 87 percent of the men surveyed were single. Among other findings, thesurvey showed 74 percent of the *~" men questioned strongly agree c o u p l es should share theresponsibilities around the house, 99 percent answered women should be treated equally in thebusiness world, and 86 percent surveyed said they have to perform a traditional role in a monogomous relationship. Peter Lutz, an anthropology . student, wrote and administered the test. The purpose of the survey was to provide current information about how men see their role today, said Chris Feiring, Men's Resource Center coordinator. The information the center had available was outdated or did not apply toWestern's male population, he said. Lutz designed a questionnaire, which included questions about men's activities, health, fashions, domestic tasks, careers, military and liberation. After selecting thequestions, Lutz and others called 50 men. Surveyors explained the purpose of the survey to each caller.They w were told who would use the information. The questionnaire took approximately 15 minutes,and because of the lengthy lapse with each person, Lutz decided to randomly hand the remaining50 . jm questionnaires in Red Square fall Quarter, said Feiring. The results of this survey will allow thecenter to examine its current programs and consider changes for next year, Feiring said. One programunder consider- .j* ation for next year is a workshop on parent- child relationships, which will deal withthe transition of returning to college, he said. would ask their sexual partner to use a condom."Women have this swept-away mentality," Lewis said. She surveyed 200 women between the ages of 18and 20 last January. "They think they are innocent if they don't plan to have sex." Other statistics in thesurvey include: * 53 percent of the women surveyed thought if a blood test is negative, the persondoesn't have AIDS. However, "It (AIDS) takes at least six weeks, and up to 14 months, to show up in thebody," she said. * 39 percent thought women were less likely to get AIDS than men. * 31 percentthought AIDS could be contracted from insects. * 28 percent thought other sexually transmitteddiseases, such as herpes or venereal disease, could turn into AIDS. * 28 percent didn't know the earlysymptoms of AIDS, which include weight loss, fever, fatigue and swollen glands. Lewis said thesepopular misconceptions show how misinformed people are about AIDS. "We want them to think aboutit," she said. "You have to see yourself at risk before you listen." Chlamydia statistics for Whatcomcounty indicate people still are having un-p r o t e c t e d intercourse, Lewis said. Chlamydia, a form ofsexually transmitted infection, is a good indicator of unprotected intercourse, which is the only way to get the disease. â€¢ She said the number of cases demonstrates the need to use some barrier type ofbirth control. Lewis said barrier birth control should be used at all times, regardless of whether anothertype of contraceptive is used. "Even a highly effective method isn't effective if it's not used," she said.Effective methods of preventing AIDS include contraceptive foams, jellies, suppositories, sponges,diaphragms and condoms, she added. Lewis is designing a campus-wide program to blanketWestern with information. "People must stop ignoring the issue," she said. Possible educationalprograms, which could start as early as spring, include an AIDS slide show for dorms and variousclasses, an AIDS-awareness poster project using the talents of Western's art department, a group-discussion program where students would discuss AIDS and a program on intimacy andcommunication between partners. "We're aware of the sensitivity of the issue. We know they'reafraid, but we must overcome the fear and embarrassment. We have to make the issue larger than theembarrassment," she said. The Student Health Center has a confidential AIDS counseling andtesting program. The center also has converted one room to a media center where students can watch video tapes and get information about diseases and illness.

XXXI—NO. 18 WASHINGTON STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, BELLINGHAM, WASHINGTON Friday, February 10, 1933 Normalite TO A DEGREE TWO EXERCISED MONEY TO SPEND -By Bob Walters *• FEB: 17 ASSEMBLY IS TO FEATURE DANCER Luisa Espinel to Present Pictures from Spain Little I t should be a week of rejoicing for faculty, students and graduates of the Normal schools of the State of Washington with the new Normal degree-granting authorization tucked away in the bag. I t received the signature of Governor Martin, who had assured President Fisher of his assent and has set the day that will complete the campaign that has been carried on by Washington educators for the past ten years, and that surely means business. To make .the bill more effective, it carried by a vote in both the House and the Senate, which was nearly a complete white-washing for the opposing group... That alone must have been quite a tonic to the minds of those who have fought and fought hard for years for this measure. They deserve the fruits that come with unquestionable victory. President Fisher was jubilant at the results and he should be. Here and now we congratulate him wholeheartedly. A mere congratulation is so minute compared to the hours of effort he has put in, that • it sounds like a pin dropping in a room of fifteen riveting hammers. , // 15 something to run an institution with a minimum of friction, but it is another thing to advance its standing constantly. President Fisher has done both. W. S. N. S. Our scholastic standing is excellent at the present time; with this new angle it will add prestige to our education and that is what we want. I think all agree to that. The time has past, or at least is in the dim, backward distance, when the Normal schools of the state represented a place to pick up a few canned facts to pass on to the coming generations as the pure stuff, or for the student to put in time when unfit for anything else, in other words, just a grist-mill turning out nonthinking, non-leading, personality-minus weak-sisters of the teaching profession. Maybe we haven't turned out world-beating athletes, BUT WE "Cuadros Castizos" or little pictures from Spain and other Hispanic countries, is the theme of a program to be presented in assembly on Friday, February 17, by Luisa Espinel, a dancer and interpreter of Spanish Folk music; In addition to the repertoire of folk songs and dances of former ages, she sings the songs of Spanish moderns such as de Falla, Granados Turina and Nin. She also has a large collection of folk songs from our Southwestern states and Mexico. Program Varied Her program is built around seven groups of songs. The groups represent northern Spain, the Levant of Spain, the south of Spain, the Spanish Moors, the north t gt;f Mexico and California. For each dance she has a different costume and colorful properties, many of which have histories of their own. Honored Highly Miss Espinel has received two of the highest artistic honors accorded a recitalist: in 1928 she was sent as a special envoy of the famous Institute de las Espanas on a tour of the United States; and was assisting ar-ist at the Anniversary Festival of Chambers of Music at Pittsfield, Massachusetts, sponsored by Mrs. Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge. o WAA to Sponsor Four-Star Movie Philip Barry's "Animal Kingdom" Coming Next Week QUARTETTE APPEARS BEASTS TO TANGLE Costumed Les Voyageurs Group Presents Varied Music An attractive program of music is expected when the mixed quartette of "Les Voyageurs" of Vancouver, B. C, appears in assemby Tuesday, February 14. The artists will wear full dress costumes and uniforms and will present a program ranging from TUT dor Madrigalis and Palestrina to early and late Victorian music. Modern impressionistic piano selections, Dvorak and Beethovan duos modern light classics, and a selection from "The Firefly" complete the program. The madrigals will be presented in the old English style, with the singers seated at a table. The personnel includes Mr. Bates, who announces the numbers; Bettie Cross, pianist; Marion Frieze Edwards, soprano; Jane Sugden, contralto; William Beadle, tenor; and J. McAllister Wallace, bass. SHORHSITSPEAK Adult Recreation Is Subject of Talk by P. E. Teacher E Powerful Partis and Battling Brewer Will Battle (Continued on Page Two) SILLY SAM GIVEN BY DRAMA CLASS Plot Portrays Factory Life Northern England A very fine performance of the, one-act play, "Silly Sam," was presented in assembly this morning by Victor H. Hoppe's play production group. •' The plot is of a very simple and delicate nature dealing with the life of Sarah, an old woman who has spent her entire life as a common . weaver in one of the factories of northern England. Harriet Ricker-son, in this difficult role did a fine bit. of character work. Roger Chapman, characterized as the young curate, played his part in a calm and natural manner. A touching, scene was created when Silly Sam, played by Nelson Brewer arrives at the critical mo- • ment as a reprieve and saves Sarah from the poor house. Katherine Bowden, playing the role of Emma, a young weaver, did well in portraying the true meaning of friendship and sympathy between the factory workers. Roger Chapman deserves considerable praise for his directing of this successful production. ''. The play is particularly appropriate at,:'this tune bemuse of the present existing conditions among the the need of the bill not being que* : f a f l ^ r wortfcr^^ "The Animal Kingdom," a four-star picture showing at the Mount Baker theatre, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday of next week, will be sponsored by the W. A. A. Until Tuesday, tickets for this motion picture can be procured for 25 cents each, at the landing in front of the main door. Twenty-five percent of each admission sold by organization members will be cleared by the W. A. A. This sum will go to pay off. some of the Sinclair Island lodge debt. "The Animal Kingdom" strangely enough, has not a single animal in it. It is a clever satire on modern society. The writer of the stage pro-production, Philip Barry, gave i t this title simply because his characters show so many elemental emotions that they are fit only to be ranked in the animal kingdom. Critic Praises Show Pare Lorentz a critic of much note writes in Vanity Fair: "You could not ask for a more skillful or careful or genuinely fine production than 'The Animal Kingdom' To begin with it is by far the best study of poor little rich people Barry has written. And as Leslie Howard, William Gorgan, Ann Harding, and Myrna Loy have been secured for the leading characters, it could hardly miss being a splendid production." _ o Barefoot Schoolboy Bill Successful in Senate at Olympia The "Barefoot Schoolboy'' act, introduced to the state senate by Senator Gable, father of John and Charles Gable, attending Bellingham- Normal school, was passed by an unanimous vote of those present yesterday. The bill provides that the state bear half the running expenses of the' public schools, an increase of 30% from the percentage formerly appropriated for this purpose. The bill as passed was only amended in one respect from the one originally proposed by the senator., The only debate, was that concerning the proposed amendments,' Several phases of adult recreation will be discussed next Wednesday, night by Miss Thelma Short, women's physical education teacher, for regular broadcast Miss Short will link up with adult pastimes the activities and forms of recreation in which the women. are instructed here, showing that the Normal program of sports for girls is such as will be of use to them after graduation. She will explain the value of recreation to the students and to older people emphasizing its continued need when school attendance is a thing of the past. o SPENCER RESIGNS Tonight the wild men of the institution will meet in the big gym to tear each other limb from limb, much to the amazement or amusement of the fair young damsels and wolves of the school. The brawl will commence at 7:30 and you will be admitted to the arena for the small fee of ten cents, American money. (Canadian dough taken at the usual discount.) ' Powerful Partis and Battling Brewer will tangle in the main event for the championship of the hilltop and the privilege of staying at the girls' dormitory for six weeks— as if Brewer didn't spend most of his time there anyhow. In addition there will be four other events including Gropy Goheen and Duckem De Lancy at 140 lbs. This will be a fast bout. Cauley Flowers and Ice Berg will tangle at "Two Hearts in Waltz Time" Auditorium at 7 and 9 (Continued on Page Two) o LEAVES CITY Music Instructor Goes South Recover Health to U. of W. Regents Defer Action on Withdrawal Acceptance President M. Lyle Spencer of the University of Washington has handed his resignation to the new .board of regents. Dr. Spencer feels the board should have freedom of action at this time and that his move is for the best interests of the university. •In his resignation Dr Spencer requested that he be transferred to the English department, a position he held for a long time before taking over control of the University. The regents have not accepted the resignation and are waiting until a careful study is made. Harold B. Smith, head of the music department left by boat from Seattle Wednesday night with his wife and daughter for Palm Springs California. He will remain there until his health is better. - Palm Springs is located in the desert part of California and Mr. Smith hopes that the climate will hasten his convalescence. In the fall quarter, Mr. Smith was taken ill with slow pneumonia. His condition has improved decently, but he is not able to come back to Normal for the spring quarter as he had hoped. —'- o — STUDY TRAGEDIES M. Belle. Sperry's Classes Are to Begin Tragedies Miss Keeler Speaks on Barefoot School Boy Act over KVOS Discussing the new Barefoot School Boy act, Miss Delia Keeler, spoke over KVOS last Wednesday evening on the weekly faculty broadcast. / Miss Keeler reviewed the history of education in the state of Washington and showed the development of more satisfactory legislation in its behalf. She explained that few districts in the state are rich enough to support schools with the levies which are now permissible. Explaining the provisions and the purpose of the 1933 Barefoot Schoolboy Act, Miss keeler summarized her speech by saying: "It is the fundamental purpose of the new Barefoot Schooboy Act to fix standards for the state's and the counties' shares of the support of the common schools, and thus to preserve that equalizing principle'which has played so important a part in our educational progress; and to pass on to the children of the state their heritage; toe f ^ Members of the Shakespeare class taught by Miss M. Belle Sperry, have finished the study of Shakespeare's comedies and have begun the tragedies.

Good News From Olympia And now we've the degree bill passed! It seems impossible that the goal of so much effort has been reached. A new spirit, an undoubtedly better spirit, is saying what's to be done in the executive chambers at Olympia. Governor Martin and our friends in the legislature are to be thanked sincerely for their contribution to the improvement of the educational system of the State of Washington. But what a paradox it would be if the bill closing the three schools were to be passed. Surely a gubernatorial veto would follow the passage of such a bill. The Normal schools keep large number of people in Washington at work who would otherwise be standing in breadlines. Both the faculty and the student body of all three schools would be counted among the unemployed if the institutions should close. Washington needs its payroll. W e need our education. W e can have both! — o Assemblies Again GRANDAD DESCRIBES SPORT OF OLD DAYS Scribe Told "Muddyin"' Season Old South's Big Event Is Literary This and That Selections from Milt Gross may be all well and good for tired business men, but to present vaudeville "gags" to future teachers is an insult to the profession and a slap in th face to those present. Townsfolk who attended must have taken home very complimentary stories to the rest of the people in Bellingham concerning the excellence of our assembly programs and the intellectual level of entertainment designed to amuse those who will teach their children. Money could be saved in the school by. giving assemblies entirely over to clubs and organizations such as Mr. Hoppe's speech and play-production classes, the Drama club, and others, presenting programs of their own talent. The experience to the participating students would be of great value to them, and certainly programs superior to that of last Tuesday would be seen. The students are to be compli-mnted on the civility they showed the contralto. Not an uncouth razz-berry shook the sickly stillness after her selections. No one laughed. No one even left. There was only silence, and the impoliteness shown Prsident Fisher's slip-of-the-lip in a late assembly was redeemed. Pitying adults heard Jeannette Gause sing in the assembly, not unsympathetic children. _ o -. Bad Driveways Grandad, a rather hard and lean old Texan, who still chews snoose, and plays dominoes and in many other ways harks back to the "good old days," likes to tell about all t he pleasures he used to enjoy years ago. I like to listen to him, especially as he talks about "muddyin' ". Everyone goes "muddyin" ", for the day set for that activity is just as much a holiday for the people of the community as is the Fourth' of July, Pioneer's day or June Teenth* All available draft animals are rounded up to accompany the picnickers and when the party reaches the hunting ground—a slow-moving, shallow stream—the day's fun begins. "Poor Whites" Appreciate Holiday The recreation is not the kind of pleasure enjoyed by people who consider play a regular part of every day's program. I t is t he long-looked-for fun-fest that only hard-working "poor white" cotton farmers can appreciate. The atmosphere of the occasion is one of relaxation and intense enjoyment—a getting away for a time from the routine and t he drudgery of the back-breaking and soul-killing toil of the farms. "There is a fish-fry on today! Though tomorrow we may be working like "niggers" there's a fish-fry on "today!" Fish Are Caught with Mules and Clubs While the women and old men watch the festivities from the river bank or make the necessary preparations for lunch the boys and younger men begin to "fish." A few of them mount mules and wade them into the deep pools where the yellow "cats" are to be found, while another group of fishermen wade barelegged out into the middle of the streams with clubs. The water soon gets considerable "muddied" and the "cats" begin coming up for air. When a fish appears on the surface a fisherman clubs him, throws him up on the bank and then looks around for more victims. Occasionally a disturbed water moccasin makes the fishing more interesting and exciting. Smell Those Catfish Fryin' While the fish are being caught the women clean them and make ready for the picnic. Small boys and girls play on a swing made by. nature: a trailing grapevine. Others climb slippery elms and ride them to the ground A baby plays on a blanket under its mother's Watchful eye. (Centipedes and stinging lizards are sometimes met with in the grass.) Everyone is happy and many are singing. Why shouldn't they sing and be gay! Isn't "muddyin' " the most fun imaginable, outside that described in novels, and isn't the smell of frying catfish wonderful? The fish-fry days are gone now, for "muddyin' "has been made unlawful because it threatened to seriously deplete the number of fish in southern- rivers and creeks, but the twinkle in grandad's eye says he will always remember those "good old days" with joy. *June 19, celebrated by the southern negroes as the anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation. The early watermelons are just getting ripe at this time of the year. o Last week John Galsworthy, the last of the Victorian writers, and winner of the 1931 Nobel prize, died at the age of sixty-six. Galsworthy was born in Surrey, England, and was educated at Harrow and Oxford. He was admitted to the bar in 1890, but he thoroughly hated law. •":',''. He was of independent means.and for several years after he gave up his law practice he~ traveled widely and read a great deal. On one of his voyages he met Joseph Conrad and formed a fast friendship with him. Conrad had-begun to write, and he showed Galsworthy a manuscript. The latter recognized the worth of the work and advised Conrad to devote himself to writing. Thus another great author was launched on his career. -Galsworthy himself had no idea of becoming a writer, but he was encouraged to try. He was twenty-eight when he began, and he said of his first tales, "They had every4 fault." i n 1903 he commenced "A Man of Property," the frst of the Forsyte series, which occupied twenty-six years of his life and followed the Forsyte family through three generations. . . .' .• He wrote his manuscripts rapidly in a bold .hand. He corrected them extensively, making them always untidy. Galsworthy never made scenarios for his plays or outlines for his novels, and never quite knew how they were going to work out. He did not write under pressure of necessity, but waited for inspiration. In 1930 Galsworthy announced the last of the Forsyte series. "One can't keep on with that sort of thing indefinitely, especially after one has killed one's principal character." The novels "Maid in Waiting" and "Flowering Wilderness" begin the story of another family. "It may continue on to be another saga. One never knows," was Mr. Galsworthy's comment.

Evidence that Miss Catlin's work is appreciated in her community is the fact that her school has steadily grown larger. She began by teach ing the three children of two families in their homes, but when more and more mothers began sending their children to her, Miss Catlin found it necessary to look about for a new home. In the basement of a public library she now meets daily with her nine primary-grade children while well-informed and well-educated mothers instruct the pupils of the intermediate and upper grades. In addition to the usual academic subjects music, dramatics, and French are also taught. Not long ago Elizabeth Hopper, Director of the Appointment Bureau, received a letter from Miss Catlin in regard to the experiment she is undertaking at Longview. If optimism is an augury of success, then much is to be expected of Miss Catlin in the future. o STUDENTS HAVE FLU This week's list of illnesses from the nurse's office show that flu is still the main cause of absence. Jerry Robinson, Victor Iverson, Sister Mary Michael, Ann Prendergast Mrs. Corrine Longwood and Homer Siler have been out of school because of various forms of influenza. An injured heel received in a basketball game has kept Arvid Griffen at home. Glenn Rockey has been absent as a result of his mothers illness, o Silence Reigns During Last Lap of Contest at Hall For the first time in the history of the Blue Room of Edens Hall there was silence for a half hour, despite the fact that four tables of cards were in session. The occasion was the last lap of the Court Whist Tournament which requires absolute silence for the first four hands of the last day's play.

SILL IS HIGH POINT GETTER VikingTs in Final Showing Before Local Normal Fans I n their last home game of the season, the Viking basketball team ras no match for a swift-passing, sure-shooting Ellensburg quintet and were defeated 42 to 29. The contest was played last Wednesday on the Whatcom floor. Wildcat Defense Good The Wildcats presented a close-checking defense and a puzzling offense which worked with perfect smoothness. The eastern hoopmen featured the'game with sensational floor shots coupled with their center system of "feeding" to the scorers under the basket. Ellensburg Takes Lead Ellensburg jumped into a quick lead and ran the score up to 12-2. Bellingham retaliated however with Rork Moser, Nolte, and Clint Mc- Beath doing the work to make the score 10-7. Ellensburg looped a long one as did Malcolm McBeath for the local five. The easter^i team came back to sink two more beautiful shots which were immediately followed by a field goal by Moser. The Wildcats made two more baskets to run the score to 20-11 as the half ended. Wildcats Open Up Rork opened the second round by scoring for Bellingham. Ellensburg looped a field goal. Clint McBeath also scored. The Wildcat retaliated with another goal, followed by foul shots by M. McBeath, C. McBeath, Nolte, and a free throw by Ellensburg, to run the score to 25- 18. The eastern boys got hot and sank three field goals in rapid succession Rork counted for the Vikings, followed by three more long ones and a foul shot by Ellensburg. Score 38-20 Moser made good on a free throw and C. McBeath swished the cords for a long one. Nolte connected a foul shot to make the score board read 38-24. The Wildcats repeated, as did McNeill with a field goal, and Moser with a foul shot. The eastern hoopmen sank their last field goal. Rork closed the game with a goal for Bellingham. Score 42-29.

This season's Inter-school hoop league is about the most gore-thirsty regiment of fat rascals that the school has witnessed in years. It looks like the former Baron, Charles Gable and his Garden Terrace crooners have a strangle-hold on the championship cup (Mrs. Baughman says that any of the boys can down three in a row without cream or sugar). Oh, well, we can't all be presidents, so just take it with a grain of sugar and a drop of milk, it's better that way anyhow. The boys' play basketball under the title of Viking Manor but that's alright. Folks, you missed the biggest game of the season the other day when the Varsity and the JayVees held an afternoon turnout 'at the Sandison Studios. It looked like a little posing act for General Motors and Chevrolet radiator caps but they tell me it's the Klipsun fad. * * *__.* * Jimmy Phelan returns to U. of W. to lead the pigskin enthusiasts and has he high hopes for the Huskies in 1933.

Miss Kangley spoke of the "psychological approach" to be used in writing applications pointing out that the job-seeker should give the impression that he is fitted for the position offered. "An easy conversational but business-like and direct Coach Sam Carver says that with the first track meet scheduled with Ellensburg on April 29, the cinder turnouts will get earnestly under way next month. The last game on the basketball schedule will be played next week, and with the advent of good weather, the more eager boys will be out on the track the following week going thru their limbering-up paces. It's no secret that right now, the prospects for a high class squad of cinder artists have never been any brighter. This quarter there is a wealth of veteran, material in the school, and most of the men plan to return in the Spring. Sprinters Hot In the sprints, Normal will have Schilaty the best century man in the minor colleges of the state, and Chuck Thomas, who can usually be" counted on to finish a race in the one of the point-winning places. Prospects are not too bright in the middle distance runs but Johnny Stiger, Bob Hall, Bob Becken and Johnny Christy will be on hand while Albee, the county high school half-mile champion from Whatcom, will give the veterans a little competition. Topped by Johnny Gable, trinomial champion the Vikings will have a quartet of nifty broad jumpers which will include Howard Was-ley, Lee Williams and Dutch McBeath, a newcomer who will also see action in high jumping. Pearl, a classy broad-jumper from Lynden, is also figured on in this event. Pole-Vaulters Good Davey Jones and Posey Flowers can be counted on to take two places in the pole-vault against almost any competition that we shall encounter. Normal will be short on hurdle artists but Sam has received word that Jim Davis one of the very best hurdle men Normal has had in recent years, is contemplating returning to school next quarter Lew Lovegren, Brink Brinkman and Jo Johanhsen, a letterman in the mile who has sent word that he will probably come back, will be on hand to give the Vikings some high-powered materials in the distance runs. Many Javelin Throwers In the throwing division of the field events such potent performers as Berg, in the weights and javelin. Kemphaus, a last year's spear-tos-ser, and Temple who formerly threw the javelin at C. P. S., will aid Normal in gathering in the points. All of these boys, added to new men who are in school but of unknown quality, should develop into the formation of a first-class track team. '.Ah3:Nikfi Non-Run Stockings Without the Mesh!

But the 6ther' lt;lay while going through my wallet I discovered an oldN American Weekly neatly crumpled in behind my driver's license. Thumbing hurriedly through the 26-page edition I was ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ K ^ ^ P ! ^ K i p S H ^ startled to see an article by a ^ ^ ^ w s ^ , , , * : H i ,,v,:,,,.,, gt;m,sss^™« "Well-khown professor in the east who says "that the eyes are gradually growing closer together and that some day there will be just one big eye in the middle of our face. v I wonder just what provision President Roosevelt is making against this national catastrophe. I think my eyes have started to move in already. But I bet mine never do grow together. They will probably just close in enough to touch at the corners and then stop. One would get quite a jolt to wake tip some morning and, putting on his glasses, discover that they w;ere useless because he had only one eye. Glasses cost money. But I" guess it won't happen for awhile yet. "Countless Ages" is the way the professor times it. So that lets all of us over 19 out of the fun. The other facial features are going to be shifted around somewhat. The large eye will not be in the center of the forehead like you thought—nnaa-nnaa-nnaa. It will be right in the middle of the physiognomy. The facial contours hitherto below the eyes will be compressed into the small space between the eye and the r chin. I don't know where you will wear your ears. Maybe they will be detachable and the stylists in Hollywood and Paris will dictate each year where they are to be worn. No provision is made for those who wear moustaches. I suppose they will wear them on their forehead or the back of their neck. This calls for quite a readjustment of our present idea as to just what constitutes a face. I think we had better just drop the word face and name it something else. But if it ever happens just keep a stiff upper lip—providing you have an upper lip left. V V • CAMPUS DAY just to change the subject {you should, change subjects eoery 1,000 miles for the best mileage) we will revive campus day. All in all (silly expression) it was very successful despite the menacing Weather. About the only ones who didnt fall into the lake or gel wet were the lifeguards. The sound system installed with the loudspeakers blaring at you from trees and rooftops Was a aery pleasing and should-be-done-oftener idea. But with all the fun I'm glad' it's past so I can start recuperating for next year's Campus day. Vet of Deep Sea Diving Tells Further of Work By Phillips Captain Art Hook, veteran deep sea diver and former navy officer, leaned on the door of his car after the assembly Friday, as he continued discussing his experiences. "Narrow escapes? How was I to know if they were narrow or not? One has no way of telling how close he came to slipping over a cliff. I came up, that's all I know." This was the way Captain Hook replied to the question asked of every man or woman who works in a dangerous position. "I started diving when two girls drowned in Lake Whatcom," said Captain Hook. "Recovered their bodies and I've been diving ever since, except for the time I spent in the navy during the war. At present I work for myself; going to Alaska each summer and working there, for the fisheries and for private individuals." Captain Hook, speaking quickly as he did in assembly, said, "Why, in the forty minutes they gave me here I was just getting started. I could go on for hours telling of my experiences. You can't tell of 20 years diving experiences in one or in five." "Yes, you can kill octopi by hand if you know how," replied Captain Hook to that query. "By grabbing the eyes with two fingers and then pushing you can generally kill them—if they don't get you first. Octopi are dangerous and there are many right here in our own waters. One doesn't need to be too scared, but one should be careful." Hook, of less than average height but very powerfully built, is a Bellingham man, having attended the Campus school here at WWC and also having been prominent on the Bellingham waterfront as its first harbor master. "I also was the first newsboy and the first motorcycle cop in Bellingham," said Hook, as he mentioned his town life. Students Voice Opinion On U. S. And Its Participation In War By JOE BELDON, Editor Student Opinion Surveys of America AUSTIN, Texas, May 16.—As Europe's war spreads to new fronts, observers are pointing to increasing possibilities of the U. S. being involved. In the opinion of American college students, many of whom are of fighting age, what are the conditions under which the U. S. should join the Allies against Germany? Interviewers in scores of campuses have asked that question in' a Student Opinion Surveys sampling. The^ results, exclusive to the WWColIegian and other member newspapers, show definitely that the American collegian has not changed his mind, is still much opposed to rushing into the conflict. A good majority—two to one—may be included in two camps: Those who believe we should not join at all; those who would have us fight only in case the U. S. is actually threatened with an invasion. The largest group of students, one-third of the entire enrollment, would keep our armies at home and fight only if an enemy attacked on this side of the Atlantic. The smallest group registered in the poll, 2 per cent, represents the students who believe the Lf. S should join the Allies at once. Following are the complete national tabulations: Under what conditions do you believe the V. S. should Join the Allies against Germany? t. Only if there is actual threat of the U. S. being . invaded -. ....... 33% 2. U. S. should not join _ 31 3. Only if there is actual threat of any American: nation being invaded _ 15 4.

No opinion ._ 4 Those are the opinions of students after the German invasion of Scandinavia. Recent allied failures in Norway may have changed attitudes to some extent, but the trend as the war has progressed has been more and more against the U S. entering the conflict. Six months ago a Surveys poll pointed out that 36 per cent approved of sending troops against Germany if the Allies appeared to be losing. Nov only JO VOL XXXVI.—NO. 31 Western Washington College of Education, Bellingham, Washington Friday,. May 17, 194CB SHIERS, JUNKIN/MONSON WIN ASB POSTS Haggard Names Faculty Five To Talk Jobs Revamping of Student Rules Of Employment Due lii Faculty Committee Meet President Haggard has announced the organization of a faculty committee to consider the revamping of employment standards here at WWC. The present requirements of student employees were first put into operation in 1933 but since then conditions have changed. It is the aim of the newly-appointed committee to change these requirements to better fit the present situation. The committee will be composed of Loye McGee, Miss Florence Johnson, Dr. C. C. TJpshall, Miss Ethel Church and Dr. Merle Kuder. Employment Big Issue That this is a big issue in the college administration, can be seen from the fact that 200 students are employed by WWC. This group comprises one-quarter of the student body and its yearly income amounts to $30,000. Of these jobs 82 are NYA. Committee Has Three Objectives The committee has three prime objectives before it in the effort to improve student employment. It will strive to provide all the employment opportunities possible, thus establishing the necessity for scholastic standards. The required grade point average at present is 2.35. Employment will be given only to regularly enrolled students. A re-examination of the concentration of work will be made in order to break up job monopoly and thus spread the employment over the greatest possible area. Choir Appears In Assembly Both assemblies ? for next week will be presented by the students of WWC. Tuesday, the a Cappella choir, under the direction of Nils Boson, will offer a concert, while on Friday the assembly hour will be taken up by the meetings of the Womens league and the Norsemen's club. The program of the a Cappella choir will be as follows: "Salutation," (Jacobsen); "Bless the Lord," (Ippolitoff-Ivanoff); The Nightingale," (Tschalkowski); "Where'er You Walk," from "Semele," (Handel), Kenneth Johnson, tenor; "Night," (Noble); "Misty Moon," (Lutkin); "John Peel," and english hunting song, (Andrews); Noon and Night," (Hawley) and "Passing By," (Purcell) Douglas Bird, baritone; "Tuoni," (Sibelius with soloist; "The Great Angelis Host," (Grieg); "Come Again, Sweet Love Doth Now Invite," an English air, (Lutkin) with soloist; "The Old Woman," an English airr (Davis); O, Can Ye Sed Cushions?", a scotch cradle song, (Bantock); Shoot False Love, I Care Not,' "The White and Blue," Geraldine Gildersleeve will accompany the choir.

WWC Students Cast This nuclear cast will be supported by a group of eighteen, among whom are Glenmore Jones, Alva Potter, Mary Lou Plumb, Ronald Jones, Ronald Lund, and Norbert Cormier, the latter from WWC. This play is considered by many to be Maxwell Anderson's greatest triumph, and has been presented on both the stage and screen for several years. Its plot revolves about the conviction of the young man, "Mio" played by Cleon Butz, that his father is innocent of a crime of which he has been accused. Gripping, dramatic scenes and fine stage settings characterize the play as it is written, and the Theatre Guild intends to include all of them.

The plan seems to echo a popular conception that the poor allies are being molested by a big, bad bully named Hitler. The last victim of such sweet phrases is now dodging Nazi invaders somewhere in Holland. If beaten Hitler will probably live to see another occupant fill his shoes and climb into allied hair just as the eighty-three-year-old ex-Kaiser is seeing the Austrian paperhanger do today. Wilhelm, the old man-with-out- a-country, is a living example of an assumption that it is not the man Hitler that is wrong with Europe or Germany but existing resource and population conditions that are effervescing into a froth of militaristic madness and murder. As one observer has said Adolf is but a pimple on the face of Europe. If he is removed another will rise to take his place. An anonymous allegory to today's European situation is the one likening the entire mess to a boy with a toothache. Picture the Teutonic nation as the boy and the dictator as an ulcerated molar. Obviously a mere slap on the face and physical punishment cannot remove the ache and neither can the slapping down of Adolf Hitler remove the underlying causes of the frequent European strife. If the tooth be merely extracted, a nickel given to lessen the pain, and the cause for its decay left unmolested another ulcerated bicuspid will even tually take its place. Just so if Adolf Hitler be extracted and a million American dollars be given for his extraction another maniacal leader will fester into a dictatorship. As long as England and her allies tell the teeth to take care of themselves while they allegorically exist aplenty on the candies and goodies of the economic and populative suppression of their lessers, the world can expect the teeth to decay and give rise to ungodly pain that will become so great that even extraction and proper care will come too late to save the face of European civilization. The allegorical sore teeth are wrong, these candies and goodies are wrong and WAR IS HELL. Let's have none of it. Preservation in^Good Spirits .Much has been written and spoken concerning the tendency of some college students to raise their spirits with spirits. Perhaps the most pertinent idea on this question is the anonymous observation: "Not many college minds are important enough to be preserved in alcohol." It s The Adding Machine That Counts The staff work on last week's paper marked one of the biggest tasks the Collegian has accomplished in the many years of the college's existence. There have been six-page papers before, but never before have there been 6,250 of them. Mathematically here is how the sheet totalled: - Each paper carried 38 columns with 20 cuts utilizing 203 square inches. One hundred and thirty-two inches of advertising were circulated. Each Collegian carried 15,000 printed words and represented 75 hours of student writing, together with 42 hours of student assemblying work. gt;, the sum total of all the time and labor that went into the 6,250 papers is staggering. Ninety-three million, seven hundred and seventy-five thousand words were printed, 1,268,750 square inches of- pictorial material shown, 725,000 column inches of ads were circulated and all this went on 825 pounds of magazine paper which were divided into 37,500 pages, which were subdivided into 237,500 columns. All this represented468,750 student-veiling hours- Student • assemblying hours added up to 262,500.

Atrocity Adolf At Work From Germany, by way of Siberia, came a 64-page propaganda booklet to the Collegian office this week. The table of contents questioned sternly, "Shall We Call It Refined British Torture?" Apparently the British were interning German women in a prison, while British prisoners i» Germany, according to the magazine, live in a kind of "castle where there are tea parties, card parties, and various amusements." (Firing squads are lots of fun). In another article it was reported that the nasty British are bombing neutral Denmark, which naturally outraged peace-loving Germany, for "Germany desires a Europe in which all nations cooperate to mutual benefit. Even in wartime she is trying to achieve this aim." Czechoslovakia loves Germany dearly and under German rule is starting a program of beautification of towns and villages, under armed guard, probably). The Czechs are to be shown that their real enemy is the Jews. It seems that there are British boy scouts on a camping trip in Jugoslavia. And Germany maintains through the medium of the Magazine that these vicious boy scouts are sabotaging factories! No sir, you just can't trust those boy scouts. They turn into sabotage agents and spies every time. In Poland, Germany is bearing with a bad situation bravely and generously in the face of the atrocities perpetrated by a few misguided Poles (Jews no doubt). These vicious Poles have "murdered" at least 5,437 German soldiers and "more graves will probably be found." These soldiers were peacefully trying to help the Poles run their country. The murders were undoubtedly instigated by the British who have planned them for a long time. According to the booklet, the only reason France is in the war is because of the influence of the Jews, for the French really see eye to eye with the Germans. Instead of admitting or explaining any of the charges brought either by the allied or neutral countries, they are "officially denied." This phrase occurs with monotonous regularity throughout the magazine. The subject . of concentration camps is studiously avoided and as for anyone ever being shot in such a camp, why the whole thing is a big joke and treated as such! WALON fteoi mcl Tltfik ^ FRANCE/1918— "The whistle blew. The sign for the attack had been given. My men were just kids, but so were the enemy. It was certain to be a hand-to-hand battle. I stumbled on through the mud and darkness. A German,youth, just a boy, a bewildered expression on his face, charged toward me. I lunged forward, my rusty 12-inch bayonet poised for the fatal. thrust. Then I got "deer fever" as the boys' eyes, in that flash of time, showed fear again. I couldn't jab him. I made an attempt to side-step and use the butt of my gun. But too late, he slipped and fell, my bayonet passing completely through his body. My first thought was to withdraw the bayonet and hide myself for this was a crime, a murder, but the bayonet had stuck in the lad's backbone. Wildly, I wiggled the bloody bayonet back and forth; the boy's body no longer moved, just the cold open eyes stared up at me. Extracting the bayonet, I couldn't go further. Mentally dulled, I slid back into the trench. I lay there for three days, vomiting every meal I ate . . . " WAR!! . . . as described by an army officer to a small group of R. O. T.

KULSHAN TRIP—FOLLOW-UP Sliding down hill on tin pants is the latest sport to be taken up by the college athletes—at least that's one that captured the sportlight on last week-end's Kulshan trip, jointly sponsored by the WAA and Norsemen; Lois Reid scraped her leg in the process, but aside from that, it was a popular sport. Two of the male members of the parly, Rolf Jensen and Frank Anderson, obtained feminine help in pulling a toboggan uphill, but when the girls looked down the hill they were going down they decided that the two men could have the pleasure of sliding down alone. Saturday nighty the hikers organized an impromptu band, composed of kitchen ware, and Lila Hart's harmonica, and danced the Virginia reel and the schottische. The hike up Colman glacier, led by Chet Ullin, former WWC student, was one of the highlights of the trip.

As Biggs has been so deliriously stating in his horsey predictions of late, it'll take an awfully warm hotfoot to move the Rangers from their dust-eating role in the W J N C O conference. The Gladiators, like the Rangers, haven't anything to write home about in way of ability either, but even with such comparatively easy pickings as these, the gang of Carver Norsemen will still find it tough sledding if some of them don't put their noses to the" grindstone With almost two months of cinder training behind them, it is still evident that many of the men are still in a dire need of further conditioning This is amply proven by the sad way in which several of the "stalwarts" crawled around the cinder path last Saturday. If the boys who are expected to win fame and honor for WWC, would save their romantic ad-; ventures at least until after the meets, there would be a lot less gray hairs in Coach Carver's head, arid a lot more points in the Viking summary. So men, just watch your step tonight, because if you're going to win any meets at all this year, it'll have to be tomorrow. '• Roily Burke, Viking miler, although he didn't breast the tape first in the Ellensburg track meet, really showed that he's got his share of intestinal fortitude. . . . The Utile lad deserves a hefty back-patting for his splendid work. . . . It looked nice to see Carver's golf team swamp the PLC Clads and the CPS Loggers on their road jaunt last week. . . . It's beginning to appear like the Yankees are in for a nice stay in the American league cellar. . . . The Red Sox, on the other extreme, are scampering up the flagpole like Pucinello's monkey. . . . Professor Carver, dean of Viking coaches, urges all mothers to tuck their dolls in early tonight. . . . Especially ''baby dolls." . . . There has been a lot of tennis material running around on the varsity courts this week. . . . The county and district matches have drawn the cream of the crop to vie for top honors in the racquet trade. . . .

"Smiles" Hall must have forgotten to toke up on his Whealies Saturday morning. . . . Or maybe he toked up too much on the night before. • • When one of the Viking distance men misplaced one of his dogs in one of the numerous irrigation ditches on the Waldo track oval Saturday, his three-point landing brings to mind that the cinder lanes still aren't up to par for such a strong conference meet as is in the offing in one week. After a shower of rain, the track takes on the appearance of Battersby field after a winter downpour. George Mabee, Wildcat track head, had a solution for the problem: "Maybe you should erect bridges over the water holes," he suggested. Anyhow, we won't have to put up with this headache much longer, because with the coming of the new training school, it will necessitate a new track field, and please, peoples, let's have one that will make fhe rest of the conference ovals look like sand lots. • Are letter sweaters becoming cheapened at W W C ? Oscar, • the Collegian mystery man, was in a quandry. You see, Oscar went to the track meet last Saturday, and he witnessed an Ellensburg man lose third place in the 440, because he was unfortunate enough to foul the Norse runner on the first turn. The young Wildcat, a very good sport, accepted the lots of the gods phleg-matically enough, even though it cost him his letter. Oscar was inquiring about, and he found that Ellensburg requires 8 points in track for a letter and an additional 8 points for a sweater. This set Oscar to thinking. He reflected that Norse golfers have to win but 9 points in a season that includes at least 8 matches and a possible 24 points, and they annex a sweater. Tennisters have only to take a mere two points out of a possible 10 or 12 and a sweater is theirs. And on the other hand football players must grunt and toil through fall mud for 10 minutes in each of five halfs before they join the W club. Basketball, too, is tough with prospective letter winners having to play ten minutes in ten different halves before they get their just reward. It all just didn't add up to Oscar, but probably that is because he is a stupid little kid. He kinda thought that they should make the requirements for tennis and golf a little tougher.

The Sweepers started the first inning off with a bang, and before the Manorites could retire them, the powerful Sweepers had pushed over four runs on four hits. Booth, starting pitcher for the Viking Manor, was replaced by Hoard in the second inning, when Bernie Westmoreland of the Sweepers hit a v terrific triple into right field to -Score three runners ahead of him.

The likeable eastern coach packs a splendid array of stars, and if everything goes as it has on paper, the Savages again will walk home with the WINCO cup. Biggs Terminates His Horsey Predictions In Today's Issue By Al Biggs This is positively the last in our series on who is going to win what in the Winco meet next Saturday, May 25, Waldo field, come one, come all, and why in the (naughty word) did we start the whole thing anyhow. ••» Farrier to Pole First First event we discuss this week is the pole vault. Clyde Farrier of Cheney is going to top this event. John Esvelt, Esq., alias, why we read the Journal, has this to say about Mr. Farrier: Quhote. He just missed 13 feet the other day. Unquhote. That is up there indeed. Mouse McAulay, Bill Windshimer, and Dan Paul of the Vikings, and Bob Miller, of Ellensburg, will have it out for the other spots. Mitch Might Make the Shot Shotpui honors are going to be given to Stan Anderson of Cheney or Big Mitch of the Vikings. Anderson has the longest heave to date but this warm sun 'is making Mitchell tougher and tougher. Hip-skind and Thommasen will follow in that order or vice Versa. Unka Wayne by a Winco Whisker Last and best is the broad jump. Old Uncle Wayne Weber, graying captain of the cinder squad, has nothing to fear from the rest of the. conference. On about his third jump Wayne will sail to a new conference record. Taylor, PPPPP

The rally lasted from noon to 2:30 p.m. Wednesday. Students,fiiculty, eoMnfyresidents carry signs fromRed'Square to Federal Building BY SHAWNA WALLS The Western Front The usual lunchtime mix of students milled around Red Square at 11:45 a.m. Wednesday, lazing in the bright sunshine. Fifteen minutes later, a crowd of hundreds had formed, chanting and carrying signs opposing a bill before the U.S. Senate that would make illegal immigration a felony. The Western chapter of the Chicano Student Movement of Aztlan, or MEChA, a human rights organization focusing onChicano issues, organized the class walkout and rally, but more than one-third were residents from around Whatcom County. Protesters ranged from parents carrying infants on their shoulders to senior citizens. Students carried signs see BARRIERS, page 5 ISSUE 3, VOLUME 137 AS vote keeps â€¢ * â€¢ BY JEFFREY LUXMORE â€¢ ^ The Associated Students board of directors voted 5-2 Wednesday to prevent a transportation referendum from appearing on the student ballot later this month at their weekly meeting in the Viking Union. If passed, the referendum would have appeared on the spring elections ballot. Students could have voted on the referendum that proposed a student transportation fee of $19 be added to student tuition each quarter. The fee would have provided every student with a bus pass and the university with at least $40,000 for bicycle and pedestrian paths around campus. The additional funding would also allow Western to contract additional late-night bus service from the Whatcom Transportation Authority. AS president Western senior Shannon Hutchinson, said she voted against the sustainable transportation referendum because she didn't see the value for students who don't use the buses frequently. Hutchinson said she uses the bus onceaweek. "I'm thinking about 13,000 students and the ones that haven't been admittedyet and whether thatfee can pro vide a benefit," Hutchinson said. Gene Myers, an associate professor at the Huxley College of the Environment, said he disagreed with Hutchinson's rationale. "To be a valuable public good, you don't have to demonstrate (individual benefit)," Myers said. "This was, in my opinion, a really good benefit at an excellent value that the board failed to present to students." Myers said the Student Health Center and its fee are see BUS, page 6 Workers cut down tree near Old Main BY BECKIE ROSILLO The Western Front If a tree falls on campus, would anyone hear it? One fallen tree has left a resounding echo in its absence. An American Elm tree on north campus has drawn student and faculty attention since its removal Wednesday Facilities management cut the tree down during spring break because it was a safety hazard to students, utility worker Duane Beltman said. The wood was so soft Beltman said he could bend and break it in his hand. From the stump, die rot was approximately 5 feet deep, outdoor maintenance utility worker Josh Intveld said. When the men arrived. to remove the remains of the tree Wednesday, a sign reading, "This tree was murdered," was taped to the top of the stump. Facilities management lead gardener Randy Godfrey said the tree was one of many planted during the original landscaping at Western more than 100 years ago. Intveld said the tree was rotting, which mean it has a greater chance of breaking, especially in heavy winds or rain. "There was bracket fungus growing at the bottom of the tree and that indicates an advanced state of decay," Godfrey said. The tree was near several walkways on the lawn behind Wilson Library, next to the Humanities Building and Old Main. Intveld said the nearly 2-foot-wide tree had a five- inch ring of live wood in the outermost part of the stump when they cut it down. The inside core of the tree was a soft, crumbly substance of dead tissue, Godfrey said. see HAGGARD, page 6 BECKIE ROSILLO / THE WESTERN FRONT Utility workers Josh Intveld arid Duane Beltman mix roots from a tree they removed into the soil between Wilson Library and Old Main Wednesday.

Compiled by Deanna Holmquist City continues Civic Complex renovation BY RYAN WYNNE The Western Front The city's $10 million Civic Complex construction project has left Western's track and football teams without practice fields for their spring seasons. Bellingham parks and recreation department began construction on Civic Stadium Feb. 1 and plans to finish by Sept 1, Bellingham city councilwoman Barbara Ryan said. Bellingham parks and recreation considers Civic Complex's construction high priority because it doesn't meet safety standards of the city, she said. "There were parts of the facility in bad need of repair," Ryan said. "Even normal safety issues." Civic Complex is a sports facility including Civic Stadium, also known as Civic Field, Joe Martin Field, which is a baseball field, a skate park, an aquatic center and several sofifoall fields. PaulLeuthold,Bellinghamparks and recreation director, said the city hadn't renovated the complex since the 1960s. Civic Stadium's roof leaks, has poor accessibility for disabled people and the parking lot lacks any dividers and is full of pot holes, he said. Many schools and clubs use die complex, including Western intercollegiate and club teams, community club teams and high schools, Leuthold said. The council decided to renovate the complex now primarily so it would be done by the time Bellingham high schools began their fall sports seasons Sept. 1. Civic Complex is all the high schools have to practice and compete on, he said. The improvements will benefit any school or organization using MATT VOGT / THE WESTERN FRONT Civic Complex, on Orleans Street, is under renovation to add locker rooms and a new scoreboard. Construction will finish by Sept. 1. the facility though, he said Western's track team, which uses the stadium for track meets, and the football team, which scrimmages there, have been using the turf field on campus in place of Civic Stadium this spring season. Western's track team held their largest home meet of the season, the Ralph Vernacchia Track and Field Classic, last Saturday, hosting eight teams, said Western's head track and field coach Kelvin 'Tee Wee" Halsell. Because the campus track has only six lanes compared to Civic Stadium's eight, and fewer long jump and triple jump pits on campus, the meet went longer and was less efficient, he said. Despite the disruption this season, Halsell said Civic Stadium construction will have a favorable impact on the trackteam. Recoating and restriping the track to lengthen its life and installing a new shot put area are part of the construction plans, Leuthold said. Western's head football coach Robin Ross said the football team has used Civic Stadium for weekly practices in past seasons, but said it is only a minor inconvenience and has been using the campus field for all practices. Civic Stadium has a capacity of 5,000 and the campus track and field don't have any benches, he said. This could affect the turnout for the team scrimmage on April 29, which draws approximately 50 to 60 spectators, Ross said. The stadium's capacity will not change in the renovations, Leuthold said. The construction, which includes adding more locker rooms, renovating the existing ones, paving the gravel parking lot and enlarging the press box could benefit the Western football team, he said. "It will be a lot easier for us to work," Ross said. "You've got another set of eyes upstairs with a better view of the game." The renovated locker rooms will include new showers, benches and cubbies, Leuthold said. The new ones will have a capacity of approximately 100 people. "When Western has games there, they typically suit up almost 100 players," Leuthold said. "Our locker rooms were not able to accommodate that level of participation." Other improvements for Civic Stadium and Joe Martin Field include building a new scoreboard at Civic Stadium, new ticket booths and roofs at both stadiums and ah elevator to the press box in Civic Stadium, Leuthold said.

"We live in a culture where these things happen more than people think," said Sarah Rankin, director of Crime and Sexual Assault Services at Western. "Hopefully these events will bring to light the fact that they do indeed happen and that they are horrible." One event, Take Back the Night, is a tradition from the 1970s symbolizing women's freedom to walk alone at night without fearing rape or male predators, Rankin said. Women will march from the Performing Arts Center through the streets of Bellingham, Rankin said. The exact route is not released until the event, she said. "It is a chance for women to reclaim the streets," said Josh O'Donnell, lifestyle advisor for the AS club Western Men Against Violence. "They don't want men to participate to represent the idea that women don't need to have a protector." Men will hold candles and light luminarias in Red Square for the women to see when they return from their march, O'Donnell said. Brian Pahl, coordinator for the club, said men's involvement in the month's activities is important because men typically commit the violence against women, but most are not perpetrators. "It's time for men to say to other men that violence is unacceptable," Pahl said. In the event, "Walk A Mile in Her Shoes; The Men's March to End Rape, Sexual Assault and Gender Violence," men will walk from campus to downtown Bellingham in women's shoes to raise money for Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Services of Whatcom County, Rankin said. "Personally I have huge feet in women's sizes," - O'Donnell said. "So I am going to have some flashy slippers probably, unless I can find some heels in a 14 or 15 in women sizes." Pahl said he wants to take an active role in this month's events. "We want to show that we care about the women in our lives and in the community," Pahl said. Ducky Doolittle, a New York comedian and sexologist, will talk about her experience with sexual assault and will empower women to feel beautiful, Rankin said. "She mixes humor with sex advice, giving her audience permission to laugh and relax as she dishes out real, solid sexual information," Rankin said. The month's events will conclude on April 29 with a community festival at Boundary Bay and Bistro on Railroad Avenue, which includes performers, dancers and speakers. "These events give people a chance to see the world through a woman's eyes and hopefully to gain empathy through that experience," Rankin said.

The conference will take place from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday in Fairhaven College, and is free for both students and Bellingham residents. Keynote speaker Jonathan Lawson, the executive director of Reclaim the Media, a Seattle-based nonprofit organization dedicated to media reform and activism, will speak about the conference theme. Students can participate in workshops on topics such as race in the media, - class-and- lt;3ulturey -media- reform, media activism and freelance journalism following Lawson's speech. "Our workshop facilitators are people in our community or nearby in Seattle who are very involved with the media and are taking steps every day to make the media environment a better place," said Western senior Shabnam Mojtahedi, assistant coordinator for the Social Issues Resource Center. Holly Robinson, Western senior and founder of the Media Literacy Club, said this conference will teach students and community members to realize how differently media outlets portray the news. "It's a conference on how to better evaluate media on a more critical level than just absorption," Robinson said. "It will encourage participants to get their news from more than one source and to evaluatenewsfrommultipleperspectives, such as conservative, progressive, alternative and mainstream." Robinson and Mojtahedi, the event's principal organizers, have been inspired to organize it after taking Western courses such as communication professor Michael Karlberg's media literacy class, communication 444. Karlberg will also participant in the conference. Mojtahedi said she wanted to expand on what the classes taught and educate Western students on media literacy and how to deconstruct what they see on a day-to-day basis in every type of news, from daily broadcast to newspapers to alternative sources. "The classes we've taken and the events we've been to on campus have made us realize how pervasive the media is and how little people really criticize what they see," Mojtahedi said. wm mm mummm. mmwmrmmm? 360-733-TAXI r gt;ui costs more than OO kegs of beer, eh^ Yo9 Taxi! 360-733-8294 (TAXI) *f - 3 0 0 ~ T " Â» JCi~CÂ«l tÂ» www.yellowcabinc.com Pflll M A I M onocTO MAKE SH APPOINTMENT BT THE wiit Mu-wsusa m m B|HT|B M|M|ST m p Planned P a r ^ l ^ ^ ^ p ^ ^ ^ p ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ Rights.

Bellingham resident and Western alumnus Jim Hanrahan, 62, said he heard about the event through the Whatcom Peace and Justice Center and wanted to participate to show his opposition to the pending legislation. The bill, HR 4437, would also make assisting illegal immigrants a felony, and mandate building 700 miles of barriers along the southern border of the United States, to complement already-existing barriers near urban areas, such as San Diego and El Paso, Texas. The U.S. Senate is debating a less-stringent version of the bill this week that would improve work visas and expediate processes for illegal immigrants already in the country to seek citizenship. Although the event was peaceful, many protestors prepared for the worst. American Civil Liberties Union representatives handed out "bust" cards instructing marchers on what to do if arrested, such as avoid arguing with police. Representatives from the National Lawyers Guild also joined the rally to support protesters in case of arrest or violence. Bellingham attorney Larry Hildes, 40, watched for any signs of conflict or rising tempers. "(The organizers) asked us to provide legal support," Hildes - - Tl: PHOTO COURTESY OF MARKMALUAN Western sophomore and protester Kelly Montague thanked specific groups of protesters, including Western students and faculty, for attending the walkout Wednesday. said. "So we're keeping an eye out for things." At 12:30 p.m., the cheering crowd formed a line behind a banner reading "Si, se puede," a migrant rallying slogan which translates from Spanish to "Yes, we can" and marched down Indian Street. Covering the sidewalk, the three-block-long group chanted about justice as they marched toward downtown Bellingham. Their destination was the Federal Building on Magnolia Street, where Rep. Rick Larsen, D-Wash., has an office. Larsen voted for the bill when it first passed the U.S. House of Representatives in December 2005, though he expressed dissatisfaction with the House version of the bill. At the Federal Building, protesters spilled off the sidewalk, blocking one lane of West Magnolia Street. Bellingham police officers directed traffic around the crowd. Several speakers rallied the group there, including Larry Estrada, an associate professor of American cultural studies at Fairhaven College. "We are here today to defend those who are working the hardest," he said. "We live so much better because of the role of immigrants in our country. We will not let them be rounded up and detained." Western senior Brendan O'Reilly carried a large banner reading "Thank You, Cesar Chavez," in honor of the late farm workers' rights activist. More Americans should remember their immigrant roots, he said. "The vast majority of Americans are descended from immigrants," O'Reilly said. "The current generation has no right to say it should be stopped now." Kareli Samano, 16, a student at Nooksack Valley High School in eastern Whatcom County, said several of her classmates used MySpace.com to organize joining the rally. "All the Hispanic kids at my school tried to come," she said. "Everyone has at least one or two relatives who would be affected." No organized opposition to the protestors showed on campus or at the downtown rally. One student in Red Square held a sign with a slogan about the problem of illegal immigration, and another debated with a marcher about border security and evidence relating to terrorist attacks. At approximately 2 p.m., the rally drew to a close. Western sophomore and organizer, Kelly Montague, thanked the assembled protesters. "We cannot celebrate the tearing down of the Berlin Wall and then build another one 15 years later," Montague said, "For those of us who cannot buy a lobby, this is how we show our support."

He said every student benefits from the health fee even if they don't use the health center. The service is there if a student needs it. The recreation center fee is similar, he said. Western senior Tony Russo, a transportation advisory committee member, ran and lost in the AS elections last spring promoting alternative transportation, he said. Russo said he participated in negotiations with the WTA and has pushed for the transportation fee since last year. "I would think whatever portion of the 13,000 students who choose to vote, had they had the opportunity, have a better idea what is in their interest than five members of the AS board of directors," Russo said. Russo said without the referendum, the WTA can increase bus pass costs without student consent because no contract exists. The referendum would not increase the fee more than five percent per year and the AS board would review the fee every four years. Western senior Alanna Ahern, AS vice president for campus and community affairs, said the board disappointed her by not allowing students to decide something affecting them. Western senior Peter Graves, AS vice president for legislative affairs, voted against the referendum. He said the board could not approve every motion brought before them because the ballot would contain too many issues for students to be informed on. Western junior James Sanders, AS vice president for academic affairs, said his primary concern, with less than one month until elections, was the lack of time to educate students about the fee and what it would provide. University Police Chief Jim Shaw, said the parking pass benefit for students with cars would likely be limited to the C lots if every student received a bus pass. Students ivoiiSd^e'XSI^!^SSS^iM'^pcSâ‚¬'iSS1s^i' pass provided by the fee to act as a parking pass on most parking lots, Sanders said. Helping students understand the change in benefits needs more time than is available, he said. Western senior Keegan Hartman, a member of the transportation committee, told board members to focus on the night bus service the fee could provide. Bus service late at night is what students overwhelmingly wanted, he said. Sixty-two percent of students approve of nighttime bus service and are willing to pay up to $20 per quarter, according to a winter quarter survey by the campus planning studio, a class designed to address Western's long-term planning needs. The class, led by Myers, received 938 responses from 2095 surveys they sent out to students' e-mail accounts. "I have never seen an AS election with a 46 percent participation rate," Myers said. "I would rely on this survey." Transportation Research Record, a peer-reviewed journal by the National Research Council, will publish the survey to the federal government in the fall, Myers said. "The rest of the world will know that Western could have had a great deal," Myers said after the board voted against the referendum. "But that message was apparently lost on some members of the board."

The fungus spreads underground when one infected tree's roots touch the roots of another, he said. While trees seem healthy on the outside, severe damage can exist within. "Usually by the time the foliage dies, (the trees) are in advanced stages of decay," he said. Facilities management does not remove these trees without thinking of their importance to the environment, Godfrey said. The university will plant a tupelo tree approximately five feet from the original location of the Elm, Godfrey said. He said the university intends to replace any tree it removes. "Why not plant one that could have 40 to 60 years to grow instead of old ones that could fall and hurt good students?" he said. "You're here to get an education, not get injured." Godfrey said he was upset students thought facilities management would thoughtlessly remove these historical trees. Facilities management plans to remove another tree on High Street next to Wilson Library in the future. Godfrey said student safety is the only reason for removing trees. "We've had an ongoing program of removing dead limbs from trees so they don't fall on people," Godfrey said. "We're very, conservative about saving trees. I don't want people to think we're cutting down trees at random. It's really not the case."

The bill features local hardcore metal band Full Frontal Assault and local punk-garage rock quintet USS Horsewhip. Tickets are $10. Six-piece band Three Inches of Blood's influences are late 1970s and early 1980s heavy metal bands, such as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and old Metallica, bassist Brian Redman said. The band is determined to prove the metal genre is alive and kicking by updating the music of the bands they are influenced by, he said. "You can play loud, abrasive,, angry music that isn't negative," he said. "That's what we're striving for." Mainstream metal bands, such as Linkin Park and Limp Bizkit, distract listeners from the core values that define metal, Redman said. In 2002, the band toured the United Kingdom as the opening act for The Darkness, Redman said. After developing a large fanbase while touring with The Darkness, Roadrunner Records signed the e oo PHOTO COURTESY OF ROADRUNNER RECORDS Three Inches of Blood will share the stage with two Bellingham bands at 8 p.m. April 15 at The Nightlight Lounge. band in 2004. After signing on with the label, the band joined its elite roster, which includes Slipknot, Hatebreed, Devil Driver and Nickelback, he said. One of the bands to take the stage, USS Horsewhip, will play their first show in Bellingham since November, said James Burns, the band's vocals and guitarist. The band's last show in Bellingham was to promote their 2005 debut album, "USS Horsewhip Wants You Dead," on local label music New Regard Media. "We're going to get on stage, play loud for 25 minutes, then break stuff, and then we're going to get really drunk," Burns said. Full Frontal Assault's vocalist and lyricist Jeff Kastelic said he hopes the show will help bring metal back into the Bellingham metal scene. "We've felt like outcasts for some reason," Kastelic said. "When people get an image in their head of a bunch of longhaired dudes head-banging, they think, 'I'm not gonna go to that show.'" Full Frontal Assault wants to go against that stereotype by inspiring its listeners to overcome their struggles in life, whatever they may be, Kastelic said. "You can expect us to play real hard, play really loud, and play emotional and energetic," he said. The show will be the release party for the new Full Frontal Assault album, "Beyond the Resistance," which New Regard Media will distribute at the show, Kastelic said. Redman said Bellingham lacks a strong metal scene, but he is confident the show will be a success. "You're always having to take a risk as an artist," he said. "One minute you're hot, and the next minute you sound like 'Saint Anger' [Metallica]."

The concert features four Bellingham based bands, including Dragline, Wilson Project, The Educataz and Therman Merman.

Westbrook said this show will be comprised of a wide variety of musical styles, ranging from . â€¢ Dragline's hardcore rock sound to trio Therman Merman's pop-punk jams and the hip-hop beats of The Educataz. Dragline guitarist and Western senior Eric Sanford said he is excited to introduce the band's hardcore sound to those who may not be familiar with the band's style of music. "We're fast and hard," Dragline bassist and Western senior Julie Shoun said. "It's not mainstream; more stripped-down punk." Dragline's vocalist Jeff Wampler is a post baccalaureate student at Western, and drummer Aaron Apple is a 2006 Western alumnus. Sanford said he is looking forward to listening to the other bands' performances. This will be Dragline's third show in six months at Western.

"Western gets good crowds and taps into the college kids scene," Walsh said. Westbrook said he expects a large turnout for the Showcase because local bands often have a strong community fanbase. "In the past, for local shows, we usually see a minimum of 300 people per night," he said. "There will be two stages set up so that the Showcase will be non-stop music." ASP Pop Music usually puts on seven shows per quarter, Westbrook said. PHOTOGOUI^ Dragline bassist Julie Shoun jams in an apartment in Langley, British Columbia, Nov. 20,2005.

Despite a grain auger accident on his family's dairy farm in Everson at age 2, in which he nearly lost his right arm, Dykstra competed and excelled in basketball. Two weeks ago, Dykstra received the 2006 V Foundation Comeback Award. "This is a very prestigious award mat only goes to one person in the nation," said Brad Jackson, Western's head basketball coach. Dykstra is the first non-Division I athlete to receive the award in its six-year history. Former North Carolina State basketball coach Jim Valvano inspired the Comeback Award comes from the V Foundation for Cancer Research after Valvano died in 1993 after a year-long battle with cancer. Despite his struggle with cancer, Valvano continued to motivate his team to win the 1983 NCAA National Basketball Championship, Dykstra said. The foundation presents the award annually to an individual who has overcome an illness or sickness and excels in athletics.

His cousins ran to get Dykstra's mother and Dykstra said the presence of God moved her to shut off the machine, something she didn't know how to operate. Dykstra said fee move saved his life. Doctors wanted to amputate his arm, but his parents refused and he recovered, Dykstra said. Dykstra's older brother and sister, his role models, introduced him to basketball after the accident, Dykstra said. Dykstra underwent 16 surgeries from age 2 to 12, resulting in his right arm being slightly shorter than the left, and limited use in his right hand to this day, Dykstra said. "This was really an honor, and well deserved," said Jackson, who coached Dykstra for four years. "With just the injury itself, to live normal was one thing. To play at the level he did was just phenomenal." Senior center Tyler MacMullen said Dykstra's overcame every obstacle required to play college basketball and never complained. Dykstra, 23, graduated winter quarter with Western's career scoring record of 1,844 points, and the record for 3-pointers in a season with 101, Jackson said. Dykstra made third-team Bulletin All-American mis "'^"'"T"^ started every game in his four years. Dykstra, a finance graduate and fatherofa21-month-oldson, Griffin, works at Whatcom Educational Credit Union in Bellingham. His wife, Tara, is,due to give birth to their second child Wednesday. Dykstra said he considers the award one of his greatest achievements. "I felt honored to win this award," Dykstra said. "It is an honor to be forever attached to Jim Valvano's name." Dykstra played on the Lynden Christian High School basketball team from 1998 to 2001, and in 2002, he started for the Vikings, Dykstra said Awards and the record-setting basketball career followed. "I was never striving for those things," Dykstra said. "They just kind of happened." In 2005, Dykstra received the Most Courageous Award from the U.S. Basketball Writers Association of America. "Looking back at my career, I'm pretty proud of receiving those two awards," Dykstra said. "I had never really thought of people looking at me as an inspiration. It is a great honor." Dykstra played hard in every game until the final buzzer, senior forward Tyler Ainaya said "He just had this fierce competitiveness about him. It wasn't just about him getting the 3-pointers," Amaya said. "It was about doing whatever he could to give the team a better chance of winning." Dykstra worked well with his teammates and always had a positive attitude, Jackson said. "As a coach, I don't think I could ask for any better because of his attitude, great courage and great desire," Jackson said. "Grant was the kind of person you enjoyed seeing every day." Dykstra said he had the opportunity to play professionally overseas after graduating, but he placed family first, staying in Bellingham to provide for his family. His favorite part of the day is going home to play with his son, Dykstra said. He feels the need to share the life lessons he has learned with his family and friends. "God has a plan for everyone," Dykstra said. "I Jiad this accident for a reason. God gave me basketball for a reason. My story was meant to inspire, and be a role model for kids. It's all a part of God's plan." ---------- Western Front 2006-04-07 - Page 11 ---------- APRIL 7,2006 SPORTS THE WESTERN FRONT â€¢ 11 Pitcher, father leads Vikings' staff BY C. JENNINGS BREAKEY The Western Front Scattered throughout the Bellingham Sportsplex, Western club baseball players hit balls in the netted batting cage, take grounders on the artificial turf field and pitch off the black rubber floor at practice the evening of March 30. The players looked focused yet relaxed, poking fun at each other between repetitions. But senior pitcher Brandon Boyd, 24, looked slightly distracted while talking with teammates. Boyd's eyes wander to his right and left, peering between a handful of teammates until he finally spots the green eyes of his 20-month-old-son Braiden. The brown-haired boyv wears a tiny black baseball mitt, a Boston Red Sox cap, a fuzzy, gray army fleece and smiles cheerfully with chubby cheeks. He is the only child among Western's players and coaches. "You don't want to eat that, that's not yours," Boyd said to Braiden as his son tried to nibble leftover cracker crumbs on one of the Sportsplex's tables. As Boyd brushed off the table and wiped Braiden's mouth with his sleeve, he said his son has more interests than other people's food. "He's really into dinosaurs right now," said Boyd, who's majoring in physical science and health. "We just bought a couple new dinosaur books today. That's what he was doing before we came to practice." Boyd anchors the baseball club's pitching staff with a 2.13 ERA. The Viking starter was a 2005 first team all-region pitcher. When the two arrived at the Sportsplex, Boyd jumped into doing what he loves â€” pitching. While the right-hander rarely gets rattled on the mound, his son gave him more mental toughness. "I'm more relaxed out there," Boyd said. "Since I have a son, it's not that big of a deal. There are more important things. I don't get nervous playing sports anymore." Boyd, who is engaged to fiance Amber DeRouchey, who is Braiden's mother, said Braiden's favorite thing to do on the baseball field is stepping on the bases after games. Boyd said balancing baseball with parenthood is tough because of time conflicts, but Western senior pitcher Ryan Kauffman said he's risen to the occasion on both ends. "He's super mature for his age," Kauffman said. "He's juggling everything right now. He's like our fourth coach. That's the way we think of him." Boyd has classes at 10 a.m. until 2 p.m., but he said that's when his day starts. Because Boyd and DeRouchey share a car, he picks up Braiden after school and drops DeRouchey off at the Bellingham Beauty School, where she attends class, for the evening. When he found out he was going to be a dad while pursuing a degree, Boyd said he was a little overwhelmed. "I was like, 'Wow, this is too much to handle,' " he said. "I have to give him attention, too." Studying all day is no longer an option, Boyd said. He has balanced a grueling schedule and spending time with Braiden, he said. "I get to spend the whole afternoon together with him," he said. "We get close." Kauffman supervised Braiden while Boyd pitched during practice. He said he enjoys the little left- hander's company. "It's just a lot of fun to have him around," Kauffman said. "I wish he was a little older because we would have him in the dugout." Head coach Michael Johnson said Boyd's fatherly maturity shows just as much on the field as it does off. "It definitely rolls over onto the field the way he presents himself on the mound," he said. "He's always C.

Johnson said every sports-minded father's dream is to have his kid grow up and play the sport he played when young. From what the Vikings'players and coach observe, Boyd's dream will come true, Johnson said. "He's (Braiden) got a bright future ahead of him from what we can see," he said. "The kid has got a great father to teach him how to play the game."

Basketball analysts, fans and the casual spectator all agree he is the best basketball player in the game's history. What people don't agree on is who will be the next Jordan. Every competitor has tried and all have failed, but one thing is for sure â€” soon another will rise. In recent years, NBA analysts considered different players the next Jordan, but all have failed to compare. They never lived up to the expectations and most never put up the statistics to warrant such a comparison. However, Miami guard Dwyane Wade will become the next Michael Jordan. In the 1995 draft, the Philadelphia 76ers drafted Jerry Stackhouse with the third pick. Sports writers predicted him to fill Jordan's shoes. Fans wanted him to be the electrifying player Jordan was and become the league's best player with lockdown defense and amazing offense. He never lived up to the hype, but evolved into one of the best position players in the NBA by not demanding the limelight and making huge contributions both offensively and defensively off the bench.' .-, After the Dallas Mavericks, traded for Stackhouse in 2004, he flourished. He become a player that contributed in subtle ways to help bis team win. Ever since college, Stackhouse lacked consistency. He never lived up to his potential when he graduated from the University of North Carolina, Jordan's alma mater. It didn't help that Stackhouse played for three teams expecting him to be the star. He never played for one team long enough to build a winning reputation. The next year Kobe Bryant entered the NBA draft out of high school and could have been the next Jordan, if he wasn't so selfish. Bryant rose to stardom with the Los Angeles Lakers, but he tried to win games by himself, and has problems hogging the ball. -"' â€¢ ._ He has been a dominant force on. offense but has never been a strong defensive player like Jordan. Bryant won three championships with the Lakers, but Miami center Shaquille O'Neal, the best and most dominant center to ever play the game, was at his side. Bryant was not the star of the team but shared the spotlight with O'Neal. Bryant wanted to be the face of his team, the lone superstar in the midst of ordinary players. But he is not a player who can take an entire franchise on his shoulders and carry them to NBA immortality. One of the most touted high school players drafted in recent years was forward Kwame Brown. Jordan drafted Brown while Jordan was president ofbasketball operations with the Washington Wizards. L i k e Bryant, Brown analysts were telling the world he would be the NBA's next dominant player. James immediately lived up to his potential after joining the NBA and has been an offensive monster. He is averaging 26.5 points per game, 6:7 rebounds per game and 6.6 assists per game â€” amazing stats for a third year player. But James will not become the next Jordan because he lacks the defensive skills. He doesn't have the ability to steal the ball or deny an opponent a look at the basket. He appears to be developing into the was a h i g h s c h o o l prodigy. In the 2001 draft, the Wizards drafted Brown with the first overall pick. Brown is an NBA failure, averaging only 7.5 points per game and 5.6 rebounds. per game, according to NBA.com, lackluster numbers for a top draft pick. .Basketball analysts were praising Brown to be Jordan's heir. The Wizards believed Brown was an amazing offensive and defensive player who would be the Wizard's savior. The 2003 NBA draft brought guards LeBron James and Dwyane Wade to the NBA. The Cleveland Cavaliers drafted James with the first overall pick and Wade went to the Miami Heat as the fifth pick. During James'junior year in high school, NBA analysts started comparing him to Jordan when James play against inferior players who shouldn't have been on the same basketball court. Many games during his senior year were on ESPN because next Bryant because of his offensive ability. When the Heat drafted Wade, he didn't have the hype surrounding him because the media focused on James and his ability out of high school. Wade played at Marquette University and was a solid player when he left after his junior year, according to NBA.com. Wade was a choice to the NBA's all-defensive second team. NBA analysts view Wade as one of the up and coming defenders in the league. Wade's isn't a merely defense player but an all-around star. This season he is averaging 27.7 points per game, 5.8 rebounds per game and 6.7 assists per game. Wade is the MVP of the NBA despite being on Miami with O'Neal, forward Antoine Walker and guard Gary Payton, all former or current All-Stars. Wade will become the next Jordan. His stats are comparable to Jordan and he involves his whole team. Like Jordan, he is able to beat a player on offense and shut them down on defense. If he is struggling, offensively he will get other players the ball and help in other ways, such as getting rebounds and playing stellar defense. Wade will match Jordan's superstar level and become the greatest player of his era. D u r i n g Jordan's career, he averaged 30.1 points per game, 5.3 assists per game, 6.2 rebounds per game, 2.4 steals per game and 49 percent from the field. To reach these numbers, a player would have to dominate on the offensive and defensive side like Wade is. Jordan was the league MVP five times during his career and also a six-time NBA champion, receiving the MVP honors for the Finals each time. Jordan was on the all- NBA team 10 times and the all-defensive first team nine times. He also was a 14-time NBAAll-Star. Jordan was the rookie of the year in 1985 and defensive player of the year in 1988. Wade will be the next Jordan.

The Warthogs will switch leagues next season from the Pacific Northwest Rugby Football Union's Division I to the Union's Division II league. Western will switch leagues because of their constant inability to field 30 players this season and the team's poor performance against Division I teams with larger rosters, senior forward Tim Cunningham said. Last season, the team's lack of roster depth became an issue when two key players suffered injuries, Cunningham said. . "We were playing in the muck and mud a lot so some guys had ankle injuries and two guys broke their legs," Cunningham said. Freshmen forward Jason Boyd and sophomore back Marc Staiger both broke their legs last fall, Cunningham said. The Union's Division I rules require teams have atleast30playersperrugby matchanddivide those players into varsity and junior varsity teams. Division U requires 15 players, senior captain and club president Luke Murphy said. Murphy said because Western is an NCAA Division II school with fewer students than Division I schools, the team has fewer students to draw from. Despite losing Boyd and Staiger to injuries, the club had some success during the fall season. The Warthogs placed third in the Gobblerfest tournament on Thanksgiving weekend in Abbotsford, British Columbia, Murphy said. However, the team lost all five of their league games, Cunningham said. Team members are optimistic about moving to Division U. It will help them win more games because they will be bigger, faster and stronger than their opponents, Cunningham said. Cunningham said playing against the Division I schools will prepare them for the Division II schools. "We've played (Division JJ schools) in exhibition and have done well against them," Cunningham said. "We have better players and as a whole, we have a bit more experience than them." Next year will be Cunningham's fifth playing rugby, Murphy's sixth, senior forward Joe PHOTO COURTESY OF LUKE MURPHY Western's men's rugby team played the University of Washington Feb. 25 in Bellingham. The Huskies dropped Western 77-5. Spring's fourth and leading scorer junior Abe Salmon's second, Murphy said. Salmon led the team in scoring last season with five tries, rugby's equivalent of a touchdown in football, Murphy said. A try is worth five points, and the kick that follows is worth two points. Even though the team is focused on preparing for next season, spring practices are more relaxed, Cunningham said. Before practice March 30, Spring wore a cardboard Burger King birthday crown and ran around the field in his underwear, Murphy said. "We goof off because/we all love each other and get along and enjoy each other's company," senior back Charlie Spring said. "We're out there for each other. We party hard and we play hard." Murphy said goofing around with each other is essential to success in rugby because it is such a team oriented sport. "Everybody has to be on the same page, working hard," Murphy said. "If you have a weak link, then-it^brings the whole-team down." Trusting teammates in a violent, physical sport can prevent injuries. Knowing a teammate is there for support makes a better rugby club, he said. This combination of work and play is the perfect approach for the Warthogs as they look toward next season and the less competitive Division n, Murphy said. Working through the offseason and preparing to play Division II opponents will drive the Warthogs to improve on last season's league record, Murphy said "The main goal for next year is to get wins under our belt, to build self-esteem and to show that we can be a competitive team while still having fun," Murphy said. Viking golf rips competition BYTOMCALLIS The Western Front After winning the Grand Canyon University Invitational March 28 in Goodyear, Ariz., the Western women's golf team is focused on winning the NCAA Division II regional and national tournaments in May. The women's golf team is ranked No. 3 nationally in the National Golf Coaches Association NCAA Division II Poll. "This is the year people are really looking at us," sophomore golfer Jennifer Noland said. "We have a solid team and everyone looks at us as the team to beat (in every tournament)." -The .West Regional Golf Tournament has not yet invited the Vikings to play in the May 1 through May 2 tournament. The Western golfers believe they will earn an invitation because of their national ranking and performance, head coach Bo Stephan said. The team has one regular season tournament remaining in Chico, Calif., April 10 to April 11, before the regional tournament. The top two regional teams will compete at nationals in Allensdale, Miss., May 10 to May 13. Western tied for first place with. Drury University at regionals last spring and finished fifth at nationals. The team has forged a winning reputation in the last five years, senior golfer Candice Wagner said. "During my freshman year we only played in Washington and traveled around in a van," Wagner said. "Now we are playing top teams around the country. We are not the underdogs anymore." Stephan graduated from Western in 2003 after golfing for the men's team for four years and is a first year head coach for the women's team. Stephan quickly earned the team's admiration, who credit their success to bis coaching, encouragement and -positive attitude about a golfer's ability, Wagner said.. " "We love him, he is really positive and has brought out the best in us," senior golfer Katja Trygg said. Nationally ranked Trygg is third among Division IT women golfers, Stephan said. "This is the best women's golf team Western has had," Stephan said. "The girls have gotten better at just playing good golf and put more effort at preparing themselves. They are very good at holding the lead which is a testament to their competitiveness." Check out these NEW Independent Learning Courses! He SAYS its no sweat running the latest software.

The fee would have provided every student with a bus pass and allocated money toward bicycle and pedestrian projects around campus, as well as contracted late night bus services. Maybe Western students would like to vote on the matter, but the board isn't giving them the chance. As students attending this university, we are paying for its services. We pay to lift weights at the Wade King Recreational Center, we pay for counseling with an academic advisor and maybe we would like to pay for a bus pass and a cheap late night ride home. It's our money. We deserve the right to decide how the AS allocates it. We pay an arm and a leg for books and beer. Maybe we want to pay $19 for a bus pass, not.$50. If the board of directors can't offer another solution to increasing affordable, alternative transportation, it shouldn't reject a referendum that does. Until then, students can enjoy shelling out $3 per gallon at the gas station. The board argued that it thought students were incapable of learning the new bus pass' stipulations before voting on the issue in the spring election. The new bus pass would restrict students to using it as a parking pass evenings and weekends in the Clots only, instead of in the faculty G lots as they can now. The board has discussed the idea of a fee for more than a year. It waited until the day before the deadline to place the referendum on the ballot. If the board hadn't waited until the last minute, it could . have informed the student body of the bus pass' new rules. The AS should not use the students as a scapegoat. The students elected the board to represent us. For us to vote on every issue that comes to the table is not plausible. But if this is an issue that seems to have public support, why didn't the board put it to a public vote? Western's campus planning studio administered a transportation survey to students winter quarter and learned that 62.6 percent are willing to pay up to $20 for nighttime bus service. The board of directors should have voted to let the students decide. We can't afford gas these days, so the AS should let us vote to reduce the price we pay for public transportation.

And we quote: "Any sufficiently advanced bureaucracy is indistinguishable from molasses." â€” anonymous Tears of tequila Crying beneficial, but just won't happen BY LAUREN ALLAIN Forbidden Fruit I'm dead on- the inside. My organs still function flawlessly, but my soul feels dead and has for quite some time now. When my soul died is questionable, but it's made me realize that I no longer cry about my own life. Ever. I will freely and openly cry about anything other than my own life. The last time I cried was at the Mariners' game on opening day this year. They always start the season by someone other than a baseball player running the bases. This year, a boy who beat cancer ran them to fulfill his wish with the Make a Wish Foundation. Tears in baseball. There's no crying in baseball, especially in the pre-game festivities, but I defy the rules. The time before that was in last week's episode of "Grey's Anatomy." It choked me up so much I had to look at the ceiling and take deep breaths to avoid audibly crying. I walked to my car from the movie theater still crying after I saw "The Constant Gardener." I refuse to see movies such as "My Dog Skip" and "I Am Sam" because I've heard crying is inevitable. I cry in Hallmark stores while looking for a birthday card for my mom. But I avoid crying about my own life at all costs. I used to calm myself down to prevent tears from falling, but I don't have to tell myself to not cry anymore â€” it just comes naturally. I'm assuming if someone I love died, I would cry. But other than that, nothing seems to faze me, aside from the aforementioned cases. Take fall quarter as an example. I was spending close to 50 hours a week in the newsroom as a news editor while taking 15 credits and working 10 hours a week. When I found a guy who made me happy enough to forget about how intense my life was, I was fairly ecstatic. Then one day he decided it "didn't feel right", and ceased contact. As much as I've talked down relationships, he was a main reason I didn't break down. I knew I liked him because I shaved close to twice a week. That's a big deal. But while we were having the awkward talk ending whatever we had, I didn't shed a tear. My eyes welled at one point, but no drops fell. I shed three tears when I told my roommate what happened, but I don't think that's enough to chalk one up. The odd thing is that I wanted to cry. I felt crying would make me feel better and make him feel worse, which would be a bonus. But nothing came. I'm blaming my childhood for my current lack of tears. I used them all in preschool because I cried every day when my mom left. I even cried if my parents came to school for any reason and then left. I cried when my teacher didn't let my class out of school the minute the bell rang out of fear that my mom would leave me if I wasn't in the car right then. I wish I had known I was wasting all my good tears and should have saved them for something worthwhile. According to biochemist and tear expert Dr. William Frey, tears may remove toxins from the body since tears come out of ducts â€” similar to urination, which also removes toxins. He claims this is why most people feel better after they cry. Even if Frey's research is bogus, he's recognizing that crying often makes the crier feel significantly better. It has always made me feel better, which frustrates me because I seem to be tear-inept. Since I can't cry about my own life, I can completely avoid crying by not buying cards, watching television and staying far away from Safeco Field. Done and done. But never crying gives me a hard-ass persona, which is a far cry from the truth. I know I have feelings because they've surfaced before. Everyone close to me knows I'm generally a caring person, but for some reason the tears just aren't coming. This leads me to believe that tequila has murdered my soul. No other plausible reason exists to explain why I'm dead on the inside. I'm hoping that if I consume enough tequila my tears will turn into alcohol. I would then be one step closer to being as awesome as Chuck Norris. Chuck Norris doesn't love Raymond.

Compiledby Beckie Rosillo Charysa Beeman- Varela Junior; business Martha Asselin Senior, Fairhaven Keley Ogunmola Freshman, finance Nevermind profits, honor Nirvana's music BY ANDREW LAWRENCE The Western Front Hey advertising executives, having trouble selling that new sport utility vehicle, diet soda or Vin Diesel movie? Want it to resonate with that all-important 18 to 34- year-old demographic? Look no further. Nirvana is for sale. When lead singer and guitarist Kurt Cobain died in 1994, his 98 percent share of the publishing rights to Nirvana's music went to his widow, singer, actress and professional train wreck Courtney Love. She sold 25 percent of her share to Larry Mestel, former head of Virgin Records U.S., for $50 million, according to a March 30 Rolling Stone article: Love's inheritance of Nirvana's entire catalogue was the worst catastrophe to befall Nirvana after Cobain's death. Because Love owns the rights to these songs, she can legally profit from them. But there must be less damaging ways to sell the songs and less damaging people to sell them to. Love sold the rights to these socially and musically significant songs to Mestel, who said his goal is to make the copyrights to the songs more financially valuable by licensing them out to advertisers. By entrusting the future of these songs to someone who sees them as copyrights instead of impassioned art Love has put the future ofthe songs in tremendous jeopardy. Just imagine someone hearing "All Apologies" for the first time in a Hallmark ad. Mestel now has the ability to sell these songs to whatever company will pay the most to suck out the message and spit some lifeless shell back to the consumer and anyone who ever cared about the songs' meaning. While Cobain must have enjoyed selling records and making money, increasing the value of his songs through licensing and handing control of a quarter of his songs to someone from the corporate music industry he despised probably wasn't one of his dying wishes. When the band appeared on the coyer of Rolling Stone in April 1992, he wore a homemade shirt that read "corporate magazines still suck." The slogan was a play on "corporate rock still sucks," the slogan of independent record label SST, one of Cobain's favorite labels. What does this mean for Nirvana songs such as "Come As You Are," and "Mexican Seafood?" Love said in the Rolling Stone article that regardless of how advertisers use the songs, they will remain tasteful and retain the spirit of Nirvana. Managing the legacy of Nirvana became so massive that she needed a corporate partner to herald Cobain's songs into the next generation. But aside from mis sale, how has Love handled the responsibility of looking after the catalogue of one of the most important bands in music history? Pretty damWbatlry. ^" In the seven years follpwing Cobain's death, Love released no music that wasn't a live performance, even though Love controlled hundreds of unreleased songs. A set ofNirvana rarities, scheduled for release in September 2001 to coincide with the 10th anniversary ofthe band's breakthrough album "Nevermind," was put on hold six months before release because Love sued Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl, the former bassist and drummer of Nirvana, who helped her select the songs for the compilation. According to a 2001 open letter on Novoselic's Web site, Love doesn't care about Nirvana fans. She was using Nirvana's music as a bargaining chip for her personal gain without any regard for its musical legacy. He said she is lib-roe Mar* WeMftoose CHfttetOftlEfe using Nirvana's music as a pawn in her steady stream of legal battles and to nourish her obsessive hunger for publicity, fame and attention. "Nothin' really bothers her, she just wants to love herself," Cobain sings in "You Know You're Right," a recently released song about Love, according to songfacts.com, an online database of obscure facts about songs. But could this deal really be that bad? If licensees tastefully use the songs, it could indeed help expose many new listeners to this historical band. Releasing or re-releasing songs on compilations could be beneficial to listeners who do not have me time or desire to acquire ~ all of Nirvana's previous work. The haunting "Something in the Way" effectively illustrates the main character's near breakdown in the 2005 film "Jarhead," to the benefit of both song and screen. Using Nirvana's songs appropriately in film and television shows can add another dimension to bom. Cobain's songs could also promote causes he championed, such as women's rights. But with Love's drug problems, colossal legal bills and nonexistent music career, it's obvious that she didn't make this deal with Nirvana's best interests in mind. Love has starved the corporate world of these songs for the last decade, and when it comes running to Mestel for a slice of the Nirvana pie to use in its next mindless big budget movie, will he turn down a million dollars for "Heart Shaped Box?" He sure as hell didn't pay $50 million just to put these songs on the shelf. Nirvana fans would not stand for using "Smells Like Teen Spirit" to sell the deodorant ofthe same name. But music lovers probably thought the same thing before Michael Jackson let Nike use The Beatles' "Revolution" to successfully sell millions of shoes in 1986. Regardless of her intentions, Love made a mistake in entrusting a significant portion of some ofthe most important music ofthe last 20 years to someone aiming to create more value for the copyrights.

Sept. 24, 1956 didders Downed Saturday Western Scores On80-Yard Push BY JOHN BETROZOFF It was a case of too much beef and experience to buck lastSaturday night when the Western Vikings opened their 1956 campaign against the talent-ladenLewis and. Clark Pioneers at Battersby Field. The Portland club went home with a 31-7 victory. Briefoffensive spurts showed future possibilities for the green Se-home eleven and their multiple offense.The split T and double wing clicked well at times with Bruce. Randall and Bill Karawacki leading theway. The Pioners battered the Viking forward wall all night, combining the running with a superb aerialattack. Western battled back to stop several LC thrusts but the power-packed backfield finally took its toll. Things went bad from the start for the Viks. Western recovered their opening kickoff on the LC 16-yard line, but the Viks were offside on the kickoff. Western then stopped the Pioners dead after thesecond kick only to have the LC punt fumbled on the Viking 18. Lewis and Clark took it over from thenine after four plays. In the second quarter, Western's (Continued on Page 4) Weldon Lamb, freshman,enters the first time. â€¢ gt;. ,Â«; \^ college life and Highland Hall for Plan Student Leader Camp A fullweekend conference is slated for Western student leaders in the middle of October.

EntranceTotal Expected to Surpass 2000 New Men's Dorm Opens Doors to Accommodate Some of RecordTotal Western enrollment was expected to spiral to an all-time high this week as returning studentsbegan arriving today on the heels of freshmen and transfers whoN have just finished their Welcome Week indoctrination. A helping hand in one of the biggest problems created by this overflowâ€”housingâ€”wasoffered as the newly-finished MRH addition opened its doors to 100 men. Highland Hall, brand newaddition to MRH, opened its doors for the first time last week, with accommodations for 109 men.Forty-eight rooms in a two-story U-shape building greeted arrivals as they began pouring inWednesday. Features of the rooms were built-in wardrobes and desks, along with" other conveniences of modern residence halls. The base of the U-shape houses a lounge, storage room, an apartment forthe house mother and a central laundry room. SOUTH OF MRH Located in a grove of trees just south of MRH, the new annex features a combination of wood siding and brick. The building was designed byLeonard Bindon, Seattle architect. At a total cost of approximately $325,000, including architect's fees, sales tax, furnishings and miscellaneous expenses, construction began on the addition in early1956, so it would be completed in time for arrival of fall quarter entrants. Other halls were filled, too, assome of the houses near campus began turning away students as early as last week. Approximately120 mechanical arrivals found, however, that they would not have to be turned out on the streets. Roomfor that many cars is now available (exclusive of the black-top area) with the opening this summer ofthe parking area in front of Edens Hall. Population at Western was expected to topple all records ashundreds of new students finished registering and old students began returning to campus for finalregistration, this week. "Most of us are betting it will hit something over 2,000," Donald Ferris,registrar, told the Collegian. Twenty-three per cent more students had pre-registered last Springquarter than the year before, his office has indicated. And in August over six hundred freshmen hadapplications on file, while two hundred transfers were recorded. Fees, forms and frustrations metfreshmen last week as their welcome week procedure began. Assemblies to instruct, assemblies toacquaint and assemblies to inform were only part of the three-day schedule of events that includedplacement tests, automobile tours of Bellingham, counseling, registration, newcomers* dances,aptitude tests and preference records for the all-time high number of frosh and transfers. The final flood-wave of humans was expected today as returning students arrived to complete registration beforeclasses begin tomorrow. They arrived in time for the last stages of the welcome ceremonies whichincluded an all-student assembly at 10 a. m. today and an open house for all students, sponsored byAWS, which begins at 2:30 and extends through 4 this afternoon.

A bad pass from center gave Lewis and Clark its second TD, taking over from the Vik 20,making it 13-0 at halftime. Western provided the first action to open the second half, an 80-yardtouchdown jaunt, climaxed by a beautiful 46-yard pass and run play from Randall to Karwacki. Theextra point was added by Karwacki making it 13-7, the closest the Vikings could get the rest of thenight. Lewis and Clark then went to work for two touchdowns in the third quarter. One came on anintercepted pass and the other on a Viking fumble on the local's 35. The Portland outfit wrapped upscoring for the night with a final tally in the final period. Bruce Randall and LC's Gene Flippin were takenout of the ball game in the third after a brief game of fisticuffs. The temper tantrum came following a 29-yard pass play that put the ball on Western's two-yard stripe. Flag Football Starts Monday Through the tremendous success of the intramural flag football program last fall, the PE director, Ray Ciszek, hasannounced plans for an even bigger league this fall. First game is tentatively scheduled for next Monday, Oct. 1. Individuals are urged to get teams lined up immediately. Persons lining up the teams can getentry blanks from Jack Hubbard at his office in the PE Building. The directors have not set a maximum on the number of teams. Nine teams were entered in the league last year, according to Ciszek. Heexpects that number to be topped because of the interest shown last fall in the games. Two fields will be used for the flag schedule which will run over a three week period. FLOWERS Ph. 4999 for everyoccasion Bay Champion WANT TO START EATING AGAIN?

Not too impressive but that is the record. In defense, it actually wasn't that bad, consideringall the close games and superb performances the Viks put on at times. The only trouble was that there weren't enough times. It was a messed up year. CONTROVERSARY ALL YEAR AT WESTERN This isthe first year the student body has appropriated funds for-athletic scholarships. Sounds funny in â€¢ lightof all the coast league-scandals on athletic funds. Nevertheless, the coaches were slowly being"squeezed" out of the picture. They got no support to speak of. Then all heck broke loose last yearâ€”theBOC set up athletic funds. Parties", immediately tried to block the funds. They wanted the students tovote-on the funds, thinking it would never carry. Well, it carried unanimously; In fact, it passedtwiceâ€”they had to hold the election twice because someone stuffed the ballot box. "It wasn't thesporting thing to do" if I may borrow a quote. FOOTBALL SQUAD LOOKS OKâ€”SEE MORE FIRSTKinda early to praise or predict on our football squad, but r don't think we have to worry about our newcoach. Kulbitski is a really sincere man who has had a lot of experience in coaching. The squad likeshim, Let's wait a week or two before we praise or predict. We can mention a few things, however. Forthose who didn't eyeball the program at the game Saturday (everyone went I hope), here are a few facts.Letterman Ed Melbourne, tackle, tips the heaviest scale at 235. There are: five lightest men at 160:Dwayne Lane, Jim Gard, Bill Karwacki, Ralph Hilt, and Louie McCord. All new faces on the Vik fold.There are 21 freshmen on the squad.

It is the governing body of the studentsâ€”who, last year, set plans for the financing of a Student Union Building; it is agoverning body which provides for, and supports, varsity athletics, forensics and student publications.Western is a combination of many things. I hope you catch the spirit of this college fast and that youcan develop yourself into the type of citizen, professional person, and parent, you want to be. It's up to you. JOEL CARLSON Vice-president, ASWWCE HE has tramped through sixteen dozen registrationlines, had the traditions, codes and customs of Western blared at him from publications, podiums andperspiring people, who with effusive outpourings of welcome and waves of smiles, have either soaked orsunk him with the idea that he is indeed . . . HE has stood in line until his feet ache^has signed cardsand papers until his fingers falter and has read so much -printed matter that his eyes are ready to close.And now HIS trembling fingers and bloodshot eyes come to rest on this last piece of propagandacalculated to convince him that he is indeed . . . Yes, HE is the weary freshman, who will find thatcollege is no frolic and no funeral. Who will find that he won't be pushed, pampered or pressed intolearning. Who will have more freedom of choice than high school has ever offered and will find itnecessary to depend upon himself and his own resources more than ever before. HE will soon knowWestern-for what it is. That is the green grass, the weathered traditions, the human professors, theinhuman assignments, the unlimited opportunities in student affairs and government, the good times, thebad times, the clubs and organizations that will anticipate him and seek him out to the ends of the*campus. And after he knows that Western is for him he will be even more impressed that he is indeed . .. But HE is tired now. The tests have found things in him that he never knew he had, and taken more from him than he had to. offer. He has met so many people that tomorrow he will walk up to many of themand, embarrassingly, ask them for their names again. He will wander the halls in a daze for a few weeks,but when he recovers he will be able to stand before a Senate investigating committee and rattle off hisname, address, place of birth, parents' names, occupation, and age, like a teletype machine. Buttomorrow he begins to become a part of this^ new thing called collegeâ€”and the tomorrow after that hewill be an indespensable part of it. Several tomorrows from now HE will find HIMSELF writing inpublications, standing on podium and smiling profusely in a concentrated effort to let an- â€¢ \Y/CI("*{"}AA E other new freshman know I l V C L . v * w / r lC that he is indeed c I Tests Mag Be Beneficial,But Moaning, Groaning Still Heard BY CAROL JENSEN Woe betide the poor frosh. He's been oncampus only a few days and already he feels tested to death. The only words of consolation upperclassmen can offer is "You ain't seen nothing yet. Wait until finals week." The tests freshmen-havetaken or will take, are strictly for their benefit. The results will help the student and his counselor planhis college career in line with his abilities and interests. CHANGE ATTITUDE There is a major change in college attitude regarding two test results. These are the English and math tests. The College feels that the student should enter school with a certain basic knowledge of these two fields. Those whodon't meet these standards will have three quarters to clear their deficiency. For the first time aregistration fee of $5 will be charged for English 3 and Math. 3, both non-credit courses. This move-isto help remove some of the b u r d e n of expenses of the College for material the student should havegotten in high school. TESTS OMITTED In the interest of streamlining the tests, the Nelson-DennyReading test has been omitted. It was a repeat of much of the material in other tests. The KuderPreference Record demonstrates the major areas of the testee's interests and is helpful in professionalcounseling. Take heart, Frosh. These tests are probably the last you will take in your college careerthat won't require burning the midnight oil.

WITHDAVE AMOS We'll begin this weekly scanning of Western's green campus scene with: Highland Hall,where rooms are smaller than MRH, but the m/ gt;st is made of available space. Interesting point is thatthe building is broken into groups of twelve students . . . each group more or less separated from theother.

Observing them during practice the other day, they had real snap and quality.NOTE OP INTEREST: the gym has a new floorâ€”that's why the dance last Saturday night was a sock-hop. Quite impressed with'the size of the football players this year; those guys are big enough to makean impression on a brick wall. Dr. Walter has the College dance band working hard for the mixer nextFriday night. They made their initial appearance at Saturday morning's assembly, playing three numbers . . . sound like a moving group. Buzz Lawrence of "Viking Turntable" (KPUGâ€”Sat. 9:30-11:30 p. m.) tells us he now has a two hour show. Says he will play anything anybody wantsâ€”"Bach, Beethoven . . . even (with arched eyebrow) Elvis."

Led by highsteppers Virgil Cleve-jand and Gary Lind, the bandstepped into an eight-minute parage routine, during the halftime at the Western-Whitworth game, thatcast the stars of the TV program, Dragnet, in an effort to track down the killer of Cock Robin. Theroutine was only the beginning of a series of routines planned for four more games this year. Practices began Monday evening, and continued through the week under the direction of Jerome Glass, with theband unveiling its new look at the Thursday evening new student assembly in the Auditorium Butdirectors Dr. Don Walter anc Mr. Glass claim there's much more to be unveiled of the band's entire newlook, claiming they believe new plan for the band will solve many of their present problems. This planincludes a clinic band a pep band and a concert banc which will take care of people witl much time,some time and little time. The bands are planned sc that people with different preferences and different amounts of time to contribute can all take part ir the expanded program. o Home c o m i n g Co-chairmen, Sharon Andreasen and Don Six, hope that everyone joins in the nostalgic sentimentalism, the friendly joking, and the just p l a i n "hamming" that our Homecoming seems to b r i ng forth every year.

TBE WESJERN WASHINGTON STATECOLLEGE In The Know? Vol. LVI, No. 6 Bellingham, Washington Friday, Nov. 1, 1963 ...A Smile AndYour Umbrella Rosellini Says In All Fields By Dick Simmons " A beam of sunlight drifted through atypical Bellingham drizzle Tuesday bringing, among other things, the beaming face of Governor AlbertD. Rosellini. ; The governor was in town to dedicate the new stretchy of highway between Ferndale andthe Canadian border. After the dedication Rosellini returned to Belling-ham and graciously allowed The Collegian to interview him. Speaking boldly in regards to Western's present emphasis on the liberal arts, Rosellini felt that the College should do everything it can to promote education in all fields. Qualifjdnghis strong statement, Rosellini added, "I'm not really in a- position to comment on the situa- Two facesAlbert tion but I feel the College should continue to educate students in education." WHEN ASKED IFan open housing law in Seattle or Tacoma would affect property values Rosellini answered with anunqualified "I don't know." He added hastily that he supported an open housing ordinance and thatmonetary values should have no bearing on moral values.

The fund, established byMeredith, is concerned with scholarships, loans, research, counselling and guidance services; Itis not concerned with the financing, promoting or aiding of any litigation. Meredith enrolled in theUniversity of Mississippi in the fall of 1962, despite strong \ protests from Mississippi Governor RossBarnett and full-scale riots in which two people were killed. At that time, the Federal GOV: ernmentfound it necessary to send in troops to protect Mere^ dith and insure his enrollment in the University, aswell as to curb the volence that resulted in Oxford, Mississippi. Eventually this guard was replaced by asmall contingent of U. S. Marshall. Admission to the Meredith address will be 50 cents. JamesMeredith Westernites May Get Station Soon By John R. Stolpe The prospect of Western operating aradio station has been oh the drawing board for two years, and work is still being done in the hopes thatthis station may soon come to be a working, producing, educating reality, according to Mark Flandersof the Speech Department. The idea calls for operating a low-wattage radio station somewhere oncampus. It will probably broadcast from the third floor of Old Main since there are certain existingfacilities there which would be quite expensive to relocate. The radio-television committee, headed byFlanders is probing through the many ^ifs" involved. If the application! for transmission to the Federal'Communications Commissionu(FCC) is accepted; if the necessary equipment can be allocated; if the permanently loaned FM transmitter can be adapted; if the committee approves the entire idea,and if the project receives the necessary support of the college, its students and administrators, thenWestern may get its radio station. "Of course, we can't operate a station without a purpose.

Final touches are being ' a d d e d this week to a quest i o n n a i r e designed to find out w h a t types of programming Western s t u d e n t s pref e r . { The taskof preparing and ^d- Jministering the questionnaire, 'plus tabulating the results, has been undertaken bythe Program Research Advisory Committee, headed by Howard Tins-ley. The committee is beingassisted by Thomas Steinburn of the Sociology- Anthropology Department. The questionnaire includes questions on movies, music programming, lecture, dance and special entertainment. The questions are simple according to Tinsley, and "there are no right or wrong answers."- The main objectives ofthe survey are to find out how well students like present programs, how they would like to changethem, and to get some idea's on what students would like to see. THE COMMITTEE hopes to achievetheir goal, according to Tinsley, by administering the questionnaire to a select group of from 200 to 300students. Each student will be representing approximately 20 other students from his category. vStudent samples are being drawn at random from IBM cards. They will be divided into nine categories.These categories include married students, upper class single men living both in dorms and off campus,under class single men living both in dorms and off: campus* upper class single women living both indorms and off campus and underclass single women living in dorms. "It is easy to find out what themajority wants," Tinsley said, "but this will help us find out what the minorities on campus f want so wecan program for them too." Tinsley also said he hoped the survey would help his committee to take anobjective look at; all existing programs and to see how they might improve them. The samples weredrawn this week, and by the end of next week, students should receive notification if their names were selected. Election Violation Cited At Monday's Legislature Charges of election viol a t i o n s wereleveled at t he AS l e g i s l a t o r s a n d t h e Elect i o n Board Monday at t he w e e k l yLegislature meeti n g by freshman Myron Miller. ACCORDING to the irate frosh, legislators and theElection Board violated the Constitution by allowing The Collegian, Western's newspaper, toannounce the results of last week's freshman election.. As. Miller noted, the Constitution statesthat results of .all elections shall be posted immediately after tabulation and within 24 hours. Bywaiting for the Collegian, results were delayed several hours, Miller noted, and the Constitution was thusviolate.

Sympathy wasexpressed-- for Negro African leaders by Vernon Serl of the Sociology-Anthropology Department in the second Book of the Quarter session Monday. SPEAKING IN reference to one chapter on Africanproblems found in James Baldwin's "Nobody Knows My Name," Serl noted-. "I- really am sorry forAfrican leaders." f To explain, he added, "They're not sure of what they can or want to do or what theirpeople will accept." "Bad as this is/' he. continued, "I don't see how it can be otherwise with thesystem they're in." _In explaining the African system Serl had previously noted that the Africanleaders, like all who lead "oppressed masses," have to rely on their personal qualities to get to the "top"politically. "THIS," he noted, "is because in Africa the long existence of an external authority hasprevented the growth of a conception of common interest and common goals." "In the absence of this conception," he continued, "the only way a politician can create loyalty is through devotiondirected at him since any other loyalty (i.e., to country) has yet to develop." *i " "In time," he noted,"this con: centration of power on the individual will shake down into a fixed stable structure, buff fornow that power rests entirely upon the leader." Commenting on other problems faced by the Africanleaders, Serl noted that most of them are produced in a Western society which "may make it impossible for them to understand the feelings and aspirations of their followers since said followers have notbeen subjected to Western goals and values." Following Serf's lecture, Western's chief librarian,William Scott, announced that a panel discussion would continue discussion of Baldwin's book at 3p. m. Monday in LB-3. The: biracial panel of students will' be composed of Charles Burton, Ann Brand, Rick Finney and Johnnie Green, with Janean St. Pierre serving as moderator.

LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS Western legislators got their handsslapped Monday for using the Collegian letters page to air their criticisms of one another. At least wethink they were spanked, we don't know. ' About 4:30 Monday afternoon during a typically heatedsession of Western?s own Legislature, Ralph Munro pulled out a copy of The Collegian, turned to theletters page and called for a Committee of the Whole (COW). During a COW everybody but thelegislators, the chairman and the advisors to t he group must leave the room. The clandestineproceedings in the COW a re regarded as confidential and the Big "L" people are s#orn to secrecyâ€”inblood. An official messenger later informed The Collegian that the Blazermen decided that TheCollegian letters page should not be used as an airing grounds for personal conflicts among thelegislators themselves. The Legislature claims to represent the interests of the students. Thestudents who attended the opening minutes of the meeting must not have been very interestedâ€”none of them returned after the COW. What actually transpired during t he COW must be left to speculation.We believe that as soon as t he doors were closed and the shades drawn Dr. Lawrence Brewster,parliamentary advisor to the Big "L" and member of t he gt;- Speech Department, stood up and madean eloquent, laudatory oration cpmplfc meriting The Collegian on i ts unbiased coverage of t he Speechand Drama Department during winter and spring quarter 1963. Of course we can't be sure that Dr.Brewster made Lthese comments. Since the COW's proceedings are confidential we can onlyspeculate. We think that the Legislature agreed with Brewster's stand and voted unanimously topersonally compliment the paper on its fair and accurate presentation of Legislature actions. TheBlazermen went on to commend the paper for presenting the real truth about' student government.They admitted that they didn't represent students on campus and praised The Collegian for pointingthis fact out to Westernites. Again this may not have happened at all; We are only speculating since thelegislators swear themselves to secrecy every time they go into a COW. But, even if they refuted ourspeculations they would be breaking that sacred, trust which binds all honorable student leaders. â€¢ ' - It warms our hearts to think that Dr. Brewster and t he legislators are such staunch supporters of t h ecampus paper â€” even if government at Western i s just one big sacred COW.^Richard MSimmons;keep chips piled high Western's ASB poker table is piled high with chips after the recent SmothersBrothers performance. The chips amounted to $1,664.65 after expenses, according to Mike Boring,program vice-president. Unlike the Josh White, the Four Freshmen, and the Duke Ellingtonpresentations last year which ended up in the red, the Smothers Brothers went over with a bigfinancial "bang." Whether or not Boring arid his associates were lucky or not with this financialsuccess, we would like to commend Boring, the Program Council and their assistants for making thisthe first financial success in many months at Western for a concert of this nature. We would also like tocommend Boring on his idea of waiting patiently, rather than moving hastily, when bookingentertainers. We agree with him that last year's entertainers were probably hasty, and appealed tosome people, but didn't appeal to enough people to warrant their appearance on Western's campus. We feel that Boring, the speculator, should continue playing his cards a ny way he chooses as long as h eretains a winning hand and keeps the chips piled high on the ASB poker table.â€”Ray Burke. -- â€¢".- ' ;T : i Â£ i fi â€” MOW TK^T WASN'T e gt;UO\ A HAt?P T^T, WAÂ£ IT?"

Last year I served asbasketball manager for Xtoach Chuck Randall. I was required to wear sport coat, white shirt, tie andslacks so that I was representing WWSC as was thought proper by the Physical EducationDepartment. In this regard, I believe it is the responsibility of the football coaching staff to dress properly. I think the assistant coaches should be congratulated on the formal dress they have been wearing.The head coach, Dr. Lounsber-ry, should also be required to wear appropriate clothing. His coachingprocedures during the football game are part of his teaching duties. I do riot believe the "bus-driver"pants, he now wears during the game are proper in relation to his job and the policy of the PhysicalEducation Department and that correction of this matter would reflect approval towards thedepartment.

Having had the impressioh that these two men were studentleaders, I was surprised to see such extremely unappropriate behavior on their part. They seemed to have the impression that anyone who disagreed with them was either stubborn or had ulterior motives. Al_ Morse confined his attack to Terry, criticising him for not changing his mind. Al them,unknowingly I'm sure, criticises himself when he later blatantly proclaims that he didn't change hisvote. Terry is even more ludicrous in his attack, flinging disparaging remarks with a reckless abandon,that.includes seven other members of the Legislature. "Damn, Sarge, everybody's out of step.- butme."

A spectacular pass interceptionby Bill Nelson, freshman half-. â€¢ back, deep in Western's own territory and a 15-yard unnecessaryroughness penalty against Eastern set up the winning TD. On the following play, Terry Parker hitfreshman end Rod Campbell on a 43-yard pass and run play for six points. Dick Nicholl kicked the PAT,making the final score 13-7. Eastern was first to score after powering down field in the first quarter on an eight-play, 45-yard drive. Mel Stanton, sophomore halfback, ran around end for eight yards to-score.Don Shove kicked the extra point. With one minute left in the first half, Steve Richardson, freshmanhalfback, intercepted a Jerry Garcea pass. A combination of penalties and passing advanced the Viks to the Savage two-yard line. Nicholl lunged for one and then Parker went through the middle for the TD.The conversion attempt was wide. Parker had almost all the pass protection he needed, led by juniorguard Gene Fry. The heavy rushing of the defensive unit was effective in stopping the passing prowess of Lee Grichuhin. Quick thinking on the part of Dick Layzell was typical of Western's alertness in thegame.

It seems that the big Knights from Tacoma have just a littlepower and they want to tell the world about it. They have players all up and down the west coast andhave even imported a 6'8" skyscraper from Sweden. The Knights are proud of their three All-Americancandidates and their 11 letterm-en. Since there are only five men on the starting team, it might be hardfor the PLU coaches to pick the better of the best for their select start. â€¢ â€¢ â€¢ The Knights appear to be in an outstanding position to cop the Evergreen Conference title and perhaps even a crack at theNAIA championship, but bigger upsets have taken place in the always tough Evergreen loop.

ONE DAY SHIRT SERVICE! ---------- Collegian - 1963 November 1 - Page 8 ---------- PAGE EIGHT THE COLLEGIAN FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1963 Lake Whatcom Project Most Detailed Of Its Kind By Ray Burke Western's Lake Whatcom project carried on by Western's, I n s t i t u t e for F re s h Water Studies h a s been called t h e most detailed study of i t s k i n d i n t h e world. Dr. GeraldKraft, of the Biology Department and director of the project, explained that this meant that the project isconcerned with more than just one study. "As far as we know, more data has been gathered in thiskind of project than in any other in the world. "The project has recently branched out into a morebiological field of study than at first. At first the project was concerned with purely physical andchemical measurements of the lake. Now, for example, Miss Leona Sundquist, of the BiologyDepartment, is studying the lake's plants, while Dr. Benjamin G. Chitwood is studying nematodeworms, he explained. The institute's research" work may soon be of some definite assistance to thecity of Belling-harri, which draws its water from the lake. How relatively healthy is Lake Whatcom?"Most of the lake is in good shape, but at least a part of it is marginal. Something will have to be donesoon," Kraft predicted. "There are large concentrations of human waste products where houses arelocated on the lake. "NOTHING IS now being done to deliberately counteract these wasteconcentrations other than the chlorinating of Bellingham's water."' The Nooksack River, at the south end of Lake Whatcom where the city of Bellingham draws its water supply, may change the lake in thefuture. "Some of the milky colloidal substances in the Nooksack's glacial water may have long rangeeffects on the lake's temperature, plants and animals," Kraft said. The institute's reasearch work,done by Kraft and his assistants, has aided Washington's State Department of Game, located at theWhatcom Falls Fish Hatchery, " near Lake Whatcom. The Department of Game had been taking itswater from the lowest layer of the lake*. Western's institute advised them that they should take thewater from near the surface. In the past they have had to move the fish from the hatchery during thesummer months because there wasn't enough oxygen for them.in the water. Fish need a very largepercentage of oxygen. Now that the game department has moved the water intake supply to an areaby Bloe-del Donovan Park and near the lake's surface, the fish can be kept in the hatchery the entireyear. Discussions To Continue Dr. H e r b e r t G. K a r i e l of Western's Geography Dep a r t m e n t r e c e n 11 y announced t h a t plans a r e under way t o continue the g e o g r a p h y discussion group. "This year we're giving the students more responsibility in running the discussion groups.Faculty members will more or less serve as advisors," Kariel said. Topics of discussion will varythroughout the year and include such subjects as the wheat trade with the Soviet Union and its' effects; The next seminar will deal with problems, both economic and political, in Australia. Arthur, Rose, afaculty member from the University of Canberra, will head the informal discussion. The geographydiscussion group will hold meetings at 7:30 every other Thursday in the Map Room, room 20 in OldMain.

They will take their own lunches and cups, and will be met at the trail by the packer, who will take in their personal equipment. Leaving- Wednesday noon, the packer, the cook, Miss Ruth Weyth-man, and the work crew, plus the food, will hike in to set up camp and get the cobin in order. Fleda Whitten will be the cook, ably filling the one requirement of the job —that she be a good one. There will be a few K. P. duties for individuals, but only a few. Dinner will be waiting for the party at Kulshan cabin when they reach there Thursday evening. The first of three big campfire programs will be held that night, with singing, games, and tall-tale-telling predominating. The itinerary of the trip includes a hike up to the back of Black Buttes on Friday, the Mount Baker summit climb on Saturday, with meadow and glacier trips for those who remain at the cabin, and the trip out Sunday.v The party will be made up of both seasoned hikers and inexperienced people. Don Coss, a member of the Mount Baker hiking club, will accompany the party, and C. A. Fisher, assisted by Chet Ullin, will lead the summit climb A short meeting was held Monday afternoon to instruct hikers concerning clothes and other dunnage, and to examine their shoes. Sunday, after a huge breakfast, the party will return, with four days of sunshine, gorgeous scenery, outdoor life and companionship, good food, and a whole .mountain, tucked away in their memories—all for $5. Baker Memorial Selected By Irene Fyhn Consisting of alpine plants and basaltic rock from the Mount Baker region a landscape group has been chosen as the memorial for the six students who died in the Mount Baker tragedy last summer. It is felt by the committee who have chosen this form of memorial, that bringing the alpine beauty from the Mount Baker region will be a fitting memorial for these students, Beulah Lindberg, Alice James, Hope Weitman, Julius Dornblut, Vene Fisher, and Maynard Howatt, all of whom died on Mount Baker. Nobel Hoggson, Seattle landscape architect, has ' gt;. prepared complete drawings of the ^proposed memorial. It is to be located near the path going up Sehome hill between the Science wing of the main building and Edens hall. Garden Setting Columns of basaltic rock will form the central motif around whichNwill be grouped alpine plants in their natural rock garden setting. Around the memorial itself will be a basalt rock seat, giving an amphitheater effect. On the basaltic columns will be placed bronze name-plates with the names of the students for whom the memorial is erected. The committee, which consists of both students and faculty members, reports that the U. S. forestry service has consented to the removal of the basaltic rock from the Mount Baker region, and the CCC has offered to bring the rock to the campus. Funds necessary for the building of this memorial have been subscribed by friends of the deceased, and between 1300 and $400 are available. The committee states, however, that it may become -necessary to solicit additional funds from the students attending WWC, but the committee hopes that this will not be necessary. It is the plan now to get the work well under way by the end of summer. VOL. XXXIX—NO. 3? Western Washington College of Education^Bellingham, Washington Wednesday, July 3, 1940 Headquarters For Mount Baker Climb Hayes Teaches Flute Lessons To Daughter As Hobby By Lela Kaufman "My hobby right now is trying to teach my daughter to play the flute,'' said Mr. Creighton E. Hayes, social science teacher of West Seattle high school, who is pihch-rHttihgfor Dr. GrimTfor thesummer session of the training school. He spends the week-end with his family at his summer home on the Stillaguamish river where his wife and daughter, Beatrice Jean, stay when they are not taking care of the lawn at their Seattle home. As yet the flute teaching has been indifferently successful, and Beatrice Jean is still just an excellent piano player for a 12-year-old. Interested in the history of Asia and Central America, Mr. Hayes offers an elective course entitled History of the Pacific Rim to seniors at West Seattle high school. For one semester they orient themselves to a study of Russia, Japan, China, and the Pacific islands; for the next they study the history of Mexico, Central America, and Canada. He finds that most of the people he meets are quite ignortant regarding the history of these nations which he thinks will become increasingly important to Americans, especially dwellers of the Pacific coast. One of his ambitions is to visit United States' neighbors about which he reads and thinks so much. Asked about his other interests, the young - looking, gray - haired instructor smiled and said, "That's about all. Occasionally I play a very mediocre game of golf and once in a while I crawl up with fear and trembling on a horse." Having received his undergraduate education at Washington state college at Pullman, Mr. Hayes, has, ACE Plans Lunch At Edens Hall WWC's Association for Childhood Education has planned a luncheon to be held next Wednesday, July 10, at 12:00 noon in the Edens hall club-room off the main dining hall. Informal talks will be given by students from various ACE groups both in and outside the state. ACE members and .anyone interested in primary education, are invited to attend. Tickets may still be obtained for 35 cents at noon today in the main hall, and. also next Monday at noon and from 2:00 to 4:30 p. m. July 8, 9, and 10, there will be a display in the main hall of ACE publications including the "Childhood Education" mag«*me and various pamphlets. Anyone wishing to purchase any cad of these publir cations iWf do so at this time. as he expressed it, "Kind of smat-tered my education over the Pacific coast." He has studied at Stanford, University of Oregon, and the University of Washington. A typical Washingtonian, and proud of it, he was born in Olympia. All of his teaching has been in Washington, much of it at Lincoln high school in Seattle. Somewhat overwhelmed by an interview to which there was no word limit, he kept declaring that there was nothing about him to make good reading, that this was the first time anyone had cared about the life of a simple school teacher. He volunteered . that one of his most vivid impressions of Bellingham has been the way everyone has gone out of his way to make it easy for a newcomer. Mr. Hayes visited Dr. Grim this spring to learn what the program was to be. Then Dr. Grim spent the first week of summer school doing all he could to make his work easier. "Of course it isn't necessary for everyone to be so kind, but i appreciate it," Mr. Hayes said. Twelve More Get Positions Twelve more students have been assigned positions through the appointment bureau as reported by Miss Hopper. They are the following: Ralph DeBruler, Ocean City, fifth to the eighth; Helen Griffith, Lake Burien, music; Leonard Rod-land, Bay Center, seventh and eighth; Alice Molenkamp, Sedro- Woolley, seventh and eighth; Kenneth Bernet, Sultan, seventh and music; Blanche Campau^ Sultan, fifth; Eleanor Wfflison, Oak Harbor, third;,Jean•Cowie, Marysvffle- Shoultes school, first to third; Marie Beebe, Port Gamble, primary; Doris Woodcock, Sequim, sixth and sev-enth; Frank Anderson, Maple Valley, fifth and sixth; Lois Reid, Maple Valley, second and third, and music. Eighty-six Students Take Mantoux Tests on Monday Mantoux tests were given, to 86 summer students Monday morning between 10 o'clock and 12. They were administered in the college health department by Dr. Earle Gibb of the Gibb clinical laboratory and assisted by. Miss Dorothy Run-die, nurse. Miss May Meade- had general charge of the procedure, with Miss Helen Hostetter and Miss Nadine Toler secretaries. The college bears all costs of the tuberculosis indicating tests. Many took advantage of this opportunity because a state law requires that each teacher have a Mantoux test. Wednesday, 48 hours later, a follow- up reading was given by Miss Meade and Miss Rundle. Questionable cases were referred to the Gibb laboratory and all persons showing a positive reaction are required to have an X-ray follow-up. The cost of the X-rays must be taken care of by the student. Health Exams Completed Health examinations were given to approximately 400 new students. The entire first week and Monday and Wednesday of the following week were devoted to the routine inspection. Supervised by Miss May Meade, the examining was done in the PE building. . Physicians who were employed by the college health department were Drs. William C. Keyes, Donald C. Keyes, Howard C. Keyes, C. L. Long-streth, F. C. Rykken, and A. M. Son-neland. Only two students were eliminated from enrollment because of ill •health. "The students as a whole are in pretty good physical shape," stated Miss Meade; ''although they need more rest." ' There are to be no general checkups of the summer health examinations, although where such cases showing a need for it, will be fol-lowed- up.. Regional Meet Draws Near Final Climax Kefauver, Ogburn Speeches Summarized; Sessions End Today By Victor Dickinson "Democracy is on trial. The threat to democracy is not all in Europe but lies chiefly in the United States and our ability to meet the challenge to make democracy work," was the key statement made by Dean Grayson N. Kefauver of Stanford University in his address before the regular assembly Tuesday morning. Dean Kefauver's speech was a part of the three-day meeting of the Educational Confer^ ence of Pacific Northwest Affairs which concluded this morning. Tells Experiences Dean Kefauver recounted his experiences in the European capitals of Paris; Berlin, Moscow, Stockholm and London, and his conferences with leading educators of these cities. Maintaining that education cannot be understood unless it is seen as a part of the social and cultural patternofc a country. Dean Kefauver searched for the social aims behind the educational system of each country he visited. He pointed out the striking contrast in the thinking of the. educational leaders of Berlin and Moscow as compared with Paris.iand London^ The importance of democracy in education was1 outlined by Dr. Kefauver who placed emphasis on the concept of democracy within a staff of teachers' democracy in student life and control of the school;j-Jde^- •-. mbcracy in the classroom andftd£^: mocracy as it affects the community. Dr. Kefauver's address ended in a note of optimism but he stated, "We haven't fully arrived in America. We need to have faith. We must capture the imagination of youth. We cannot present pessimistic faces and teach democracy. We must have trust for we cannot afford to fail.

A SUCCESSFUL CONVENTION has just been concluded here at WWC. It is the first of its kind ever to be held on our campus. It marks another milestone in the college's march toward national prominence. Dr. Haggard is deserving of praise for his hard work and diligence in bringing this program to our doorstep. Many worthwhile subjects and points have been discussed and passed on to you. Do with them what you will; you are the best to judge. May the Collegian express itself as representative of the student body in thanking Dean Kefauver, Dr. Ogburn, George Yantis, Kenneth Warner, Julia Tappan, Anne Raymond, and the other prominent educators who were here, for the time they have given us. We hope that this visit will not be their last. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WAS THE RECIPIENT of an open letter on June 3 signed by thirty-five editors of college newspapers in twenty-four states throughout the country demanding that America remain at peace and that "this generation, born into the first World war, shall not die in the second." The letter was released from the national office of the American Student Union, 874 Broadway, through which the joint signatures were gathered. "Will our diplomas be turned into bayonets?" the editors ask, charging that proposed loans to the allies, the President's armament program, and his speech to the Pan-Scientific Congress "indicated clearly the road you have chosen—the Wilsonian road to war." The editors stated that they had learned a lesson from the last war and that "this nation will serve humanity best by solving the problem? of our own people, by building a forward-moving democracy, by refusing to aid and abet in any way a war which serves no justice, no people, no true progress. Walter Lippman in a current issue of the Reader's Digest expresses himself in a different frame of mind. "The only practical plan for American defense is to organize at once —with government subsidies if necessary—a vast expansion of our plants and personnel for making instruments of war. What those facilities can produce immediately we should sell to the allies. With those weapons they may be able to withstand the attack. Their successful defense will provide us with the indefinitely precious time to develop our capacity to produce adequate armaments. Then if the allies fall, we shall at least have made a start toward preparing ourselves for the emergency which will confront us." With the entry of Russia into the Balkan situation and possibly into the second World war, both of these philosophies may have their chance to rest as we grab grandstand tickets to watch two dictatorial monarchs fight their duel to the death in the arena of the world. To have a safe and sane Fourth of July—don't be insane! TEGENFELDT, WWC ALUMNI, BURKE BRINGS CLASSROOM LEAVES FOR BURMA 'FILM TO WWC Rev. Herman Tegenfeldt will leave sometime this fall for Rangoon, Burma, India, where he will be in charge of two large native high schools. Tegenfeldt was graduated from this institution in 1933, and taught for three years in the Seattle schools. He has since been graduated from the Bethel Theological seminary at St. Paul, Minn. Mrs. Tegenfeldt, who attended WWC as Ruth Pierson, and their small son will also go to Burma. AMrMOVN J. W. Burke will bring the entire set of Erpi films to the college on July 15, where a program will be arranged for their showing. A list of the titles may be found in Dr. Haggard's outer office. Those interested should look over the list and make requests for those which apply to them. Paramount short subject films of a recreational-amusement nature will come sometime during the summer. There will be no charges. Opening Saturday Dear Ma: Reporter Reviews Conference By Victor Dickinson Having as its theme "The Role of Education in Utilizing Pacific Northwest Resources," the Educational conference on Pacific Northwest Affairs opened in the College auditorium Monday morning, July 1. Dr. Kenneth O. Warner, of the Northwest Regional council, spoke briefly on the trends or directions of the council's work. He stressed the implications of the many social and economic" problems of the Pacific Northwest and pointed out the need for experts on human and natural resources to refresh the thinking and determine how materials of value could be fitted into the school curriculum. Rettie Speaks' Following this short introduction James C. Rettie, Portland, senior planning technician, discussed the subject, Social and Economic.Problems. Cultivation Traced C. C. Johnson, Spokane, of the soil Conservation service traced the history of soil cultivation and development of machinery to the present day. Mr. Johnson pointed out that land in the U. S. is being destroyed at the rate of 200 forty-acre farms a day by misuse of the soil! Concluding the morning session,, George Griffith of the U. S. forest service discussed the dependence of this region on forest economy and assured his audience that under a plan of "sustained yield" management our forests should last forever. George P. Yantis of Olympia addressed the conference in its Monday evening meeting on the subject "A Challenge to the Pacific Northwest" in which he outlined the use and misuse of our material resources without thought of the future. Mr. Yantis, president of the Northwest Regional Council, pointed out that the real test of government and the economic system comes in times of' depression and economic stress. The real problems we have to deal with are those of making a living. The speaker's closing remarks dealt with the importance of meeting the challenge and building a scaffolding for the real America by the solving the problem of consumer demand.' NOW Dear Ma: Summer school ain't so bad after all. It ain't no harder to get here at 7:35 than it was at 8:05 last • quarter. There's a lot of teachers here now. The only way you can tell them is that they wear stockings. Yon know, it used to be that women who wanted to forget men went to a convent; now all they have to do is go to WWC. I tried to get the principals of education, like yon said, but they all had wives or girl friends. It's sure a bad business when people ask if I have a teaching position. When I say, "No,* they're sorry for me. When I say, "Yes," they're sorry for the kids. It's time for my beauty sleep and you know I need it. Love, BABY. DOROTHY PETERSON INJURED Injured while playing in the snow, Dorothy Peterson was admitted to the school hospital Sunday morning. The accident occurred Saturday evening during the Church mountain, expedition. Examination by Dr. Ralph Taylor showed a dislocated cartilage in the knee. While the injury is not serious, convalescence takes some time. The Teacher and The Public By W. W. Haggard, President In a democracy public opinion is not shaped by a governmental department, such as found in certain European countries. In the United States the government or party in power attempts to justify its program but the opposition is privileged to point out the weakness of this program. The individual citizen is free to appraise the pros and cons^ of the argument and votes accordingly. In other words, sovereignty resides in the electorate. This situation, subject to certain limitations imposed by the state, exists in the school district. Every year the voters of the school district elect members of the board of education, which may be a phase of appraising the school. It is very evident therefore that the school cannot be thought of as separate from the public. The American people have great faith in their public schools. Exceptions in the local district are found occasionally but the explanations of the lack of faith are usually Dr W. W. Haggard related to the particular type of school program offered or the lack of understanding of that program on the part of the people. Blind support of the schools by the tax payer will be found less prevalent in the future than it has been in the past for the reason that the competition for the tax dollar is becoming increasingly necessary as a part of a long range program. There are several ways in which the teacher may participate in a program of school interpretation. Doing a good job in the classroom is of • first importance but not enough. To mention a few aspects of the teacher and school interpretation, a very human approach to the problems of the child always enlists the support of the parent. Participating in community affairs never fails in creating a bond between the school and ihe people. I n intelligent presentation of school problems through the press, the radio, a ^ ^ a ^ t e a c h e r association in which the individual teacher may have a very important part enhances understanding. EoIrVnoL: This is the first of a series of articles by President Haggard in regard to teacher relations with the public. Fiftv-Seven Student Teachers Enrolled Assisting the Campus school supervisors for the summer schoo are fifty S t u d e n t teachers.

The stunt in this show is to get the greatest amount of suggestion with as little stage setting as possible. Two tables and a few chairs convert the stage into the respective dwellings of the Webb and Gibbs families, while Main street runs along behind these groupings of furniture. Kathryn Smith as Mrs. Webb, and Margaret Rabb, as Mrs. Gibbs, prepare breakfast in pantomime going busily from imagined kitchen sink to the make-believe cupboards. Carolyn Kuhn as Emily Webb, Paul Glenn as George Gibbs, and Beverly Walker as small sister, Rebecca, eat hurriedly in gobbling pantomimics WE CALL FOR . AND DELIVER and hurry up center and off to school. The most important character, is the stage manager played by Gordon Morton. In a rather flat, matter- of-fact' New England voice, he genially comments on ' the doings of "Our Town." He acts in various roles; first, the village druggist, and later as the village preacher. Early in the play he calls on Victor Dickinson,, as Editor Webb, to explain "Our Town" to the audience and gets fussy Professor Willard, portrayed by Marshall Bacon, to give facts and statistics about the place. "The short and simple annals of the poor"—this is the stuff of "Our Town."

WHATCOM COUNTY DAIRYMEN'S ASSOCIATION BELLINGHAM LYNDEN WWC Softballers Drop Games To University of Washington With bad luck stalking- them all the way, an ill-fated WWC all-star softball team dropped a doubleheader to the University of Washington last Monday. The University won the opener, 7-2, and again walloped the Vikings in the nightcap,. 9-3. The games were played in Seattle. The ill-fated nemesis first struck when Sam Carver's 1938 Buick plugged up and burnt a few necessary items that usually keep the vehicle rolling. This strange act of fate occurred in Everett and the boys had to hail a taxi to complete the trip. The return trip to Bellingham was made by bus. In the first game the Vikings' big inning came in the sixth'when Sou-kiip beat out a roller and Landon, next up, hit a home run. Landon hit another earlier in the game that was tabbed for four bases, but he couldn't locate first base and was held to a double. Big Charley Erick-son from Arlington pitched fine ball for Bellingham, but several unearned runs led to his defeat. Butch Dombroski pitched the second game for the Vikings. It was again Landon who paced the WWC gang. The dark-headed youngster collected a double, a home run, a single, a walk, and struck out once for his day's total. ' Dick Johnson, former Husky football end, pitched the last three or four innings for the Washington team and struck out five of the Bellingham outfit.

Striking Washington Public Employes Associationmembers returned to work yesterday after Gov. Dixy Lee Ray met with WPEA Executive Director AnnQuantock. The 3,000 member WPEA struck at selected locations Tuesday and had planned" to callout all its members yesterday. Wednesday night Western's 280-member Washington Federation ofState Employes local (AFL-CIO) passed a resolution calling on the Federation's Executive Council tocall for an immediate strike vote by the 14,000-member union. The Federation's Executive Council met last night, with results unavailable at press time. The WPEA was seeking a 20 per cent salaryincrease. Quantock said she was satisfied with a 10 per cent increase included in the House versionof the proposed state budget. In return for an end to the strike Gov. Ray promised to establish a panelto study state salary scales and benefits for all the state's 50,000 employes. BY CLAY HARTL Acomplaint was lodged about last week's election by Doug Scott, candidate for Position 9, at Tuesday's meeting of the AS Board of Directors. Scott contended that both the voting ballots and the votingmachines "failed to contain my party affiliation (Liberal)," and that if left on, he might have receivedmore votes, thus winning the election. Tony Mauhar, election chairperson, said that it had been"inadvertently omitted from the ballot and the machines." When asked about compensation atMonday's meeting of the Election Board, Scott replied, "I want a re-run." At that meeting, MartinReeves, the winning candidate (by 91 votes) said, "I see the re-run as a senseless exercise, given thesubstantial margin of the results." There was considerable discussion about whether the word "liberal" was used as a philosophy or an actual party affiliation. Dave Marchbank, AS vice-president, said theword couldn't be used to relay a philosophy because election platforms aren't allowed within 25 feet ofthe voting booths. He also pointed out that Scott, as a single candidate, didn't make up a "party." Thisview supports the argument that inclusion of the word liberal wouldn't have made much difference. Mark Gramps, board member, said the use of the word could have run the votes the other way, also,taking more votes away from Scott. Scott admitted this was true but the possibility that the liberal tagwould have gotten him more votes still existed. The board's final decision was to vote against Scott andto ratify Martin Reeves as the Position 9 board member for next year. Student health insurance rates go up for next year by JAN WALLACE Student Health Insurance will cost either $34 or $79 a quarternext year. The $8 increase in single coverage and $18 jump in student-with-dependent coverage are part-of Western's negotiated contract with Whatcom County Physicians Service. The changes are aimed at limiting use and abuse of the health plan, Mary Robinson, associate dean of students, said. Robinsonpointed to dependents as the heaviest users of the plan. Abuse, she said, has included using theinsurance to cover elective surgery. Robinson listed other changes in the health plan. Next year, it willbe mandatory to apply for student health insurance upon entering school. That is, if a student wantsinsurance he has to get it his first quarter of the 1977 school year.

Bettis, other administration members and students generally agree the changes are needed. ,When Fairhaven first opened, it was a small, tightly-knit community governed by an unwritten "folk law,"one administration member said. But as the college grew, some of this feeling was lost and questionsarose as to the lines of authority. "In the early years, the administration was run like a family andimportant decisions were made by the committees," Fairhaven Admissions Director Hannah Wegner said. "This system worked while Fairhaven was small," she said. "At that time, students took a strong interest in Fairhaven's governance. But there has been a change in student attitude. Now we have to coercepeople to serve on the committees." Fairhaven has never had an officially accepted charter or by-laws.Thus, Bettis said, responsibility and definitions were not clearly spelled out. A set of by-laws currently isbeing formed by John Bremer, ot Western's education department, who, along with Beth Powers, is thetemporary associate dean at Fairhaven. A charter was set up last winter by a group of students andfaculty which states Fairhaven's purpose and its relation to Western. When completed and approved bythe Fairhaven community, the by-laws, along with the already approved charter, will be sent to Western'sBoard of Trustees for official approval. "The old system was a headache," Wegner said. "There was noone to pin down for certain actions. It tunneled all responsibility to the dean. The new system will delegate lines of responsibility. "This doesn't mean Fairhaven's turning into a bureaucratic monster. Our intentionisto form a sensible structure to hear and channel student concerns more effectively." Another factor inthe need for. change has been community reaction to Bettis. Bettis' contract was renewed for four yearswinter quarter, but not until a heated community referendum questioning his rehiring was settled. "Bettishas met with a lot of controversy and opposition," Doug Leber, a member of the associate dean searchcommittee, said. "We had to use some governance procedures and they turned out to be an ungodlymess. He enabled us to see the flaws in the system." "Bettis has faced mistrust by the community,"Wegner said. "The new system will provide more checks and balances on the dean." The new systemalso will give Fairhaven some protection it has never legally had before. "If Fairhaven has an officialgovernance system, then it will be able to deal with Western's administration and they, in turn, will beable to judge Fairhaven," Leber said. "If we don't have an official structure Western can deal with, theycan tell us 'This is the way it's going to be.' If we have a structure, then we have a say so, a protection,"Wegner said. The new system also will include the position of associate dean, which previously had noofficial status with Western. The position, which was held by Dick Norris until his resignation winterquarter, is responsible for "non-academic" activities, such as housing and dining and student activities. A search committee is now reviewing applications for a permanent replacement. Leber said it is criticalthat Fairhaven define its purpose and direction so the new associate, deaii "will have a set of rules to dea. with when he starts working." There are several problems in establishing the new system, anadministration member said. Fairhaven is a place of creative freedom and administrators don't want tostifle this with a lot of red tape. Also, there is a conflict between the idea of "central authority" and theFairhaven community, which views itself as governed from the roots up, he said. Finally, there is no clearprocedure for approval of the new documents. It must be approved by Fairhaven, he said, but who isFairhaven? That's defined in the new documents!

She said if a person has a complaint, all they have to do is report it to thecommission. The commission will decide if there gt; is reasonable cause for a follow-up. She said if the state takes the case, it will pay all legal fees. She said the commission will first try to settle itinformally.

Faculty comments to theFront regarding the Handbook centered on the subject of tenure and promotion of faculty. David Pervear,geology, said the Handbook was needed "to facilitate the administration, hiring, shuffling and firing offaculty." He explained that if the level of funds at Western drops, due to declining enrollment, the statewill not provide money for retention of faculty. In that case, he added, the administration must have amechanism for dealing with the problem. A different perception was expressed by Pete Steffens,journalism. "I was not persuaded by the administration, that is Talbot (James Talbot, vice president foracademic affairs), that the changes were really in the interest of enhancing the educational qualities ofWestern, but were out of economic considerations." Steffens said the Handbook "puts the brake onindividual teachers' chances for advancement to permanent status." He said qualifications for promotionhave been stiffened to save salary money and hold back people from permanent position in the college.Americole Biasini, music, approved the Handbook. Biasini said the Handbook "more clearly definesscholarship and process necessary for attaining advancement." Referring to procedures for promotion, he explained, "We in the College of Fine and Performing Arts have a preference for creative behaviors over the more traditional publishing routes." He added he personally prefers "supplanting thepublication route with composition or performance." Other comments addressed the procedure foramendment of the Handbook. A faculty member, who wished to remain anonymous, was opposed to thenew procedure. He said the document gives an unconstitutional power to the Board of Trustees to change faculty hiring procedures. He said the nature of the hiring rules is a faculty process and "ratification bythe faculty is essential to the legitimacy of the rules." Ruth Weiner, Huxley professor and acting Dean of Huxley College, agreed that "formal amendment procedures should come from faculty." She assertedthat the Handbook is a good document but that no adequate legal protection for faculty is included. Sheexplained that the Faculty Handbook is not a contract, although it is commounly referred to as one. Shesaid there needs to be a "good legal opinion on whether this is a contract or not." Weiner also expressed dissatisfaction with parts of the Handbook relating to termination of programs. She said there is nocriteria at all for deciding continuation or discontinuation of pro-prams. Weiner was unhappy with themethod of ratification of the Handbook. She said faculty should have been able to vote on each sectionof the document. Although Weiner is currently a faculty member, she did not receive a ballot for voting. "Maybe they just forgot me," she said. James O'Brien, English, was a member of the committee thatdrafted the new handbook. He said the work entailed compiling and editing various processes andprocedures that had been established over the years. O'Brien claimed no essential changes in anyparticular faculty member's case had been made. He emphasized that the Handbook is "a matter ofcompromise. It's not a.perfect document, but it's the best agreement to get out of the Faculty Council atthis time." He said the important thing was to get some policies established that are up to date.Otherwise, he added, "There would still be a lot of loose procedures that allowed people to do what theywant." by PEGGY WATT The marijuana decriminalization bill has been amended to keep possession acrime, but with a lesser penalty, under cnanges dy the Senate Social and Health Services Committee last week. The measure is now in the Senate Rules Committee before going for a vote by the entire Senate.House Bill 257 passed the House on its second try after much controversy. It decriminalized possessionof up to 40 grams of marijuana. The Senate committee's amendments would consider violations ascriminal offenses but with a $25 fine and payment of up to $50 for mandatory enrollment in thedrugeducation program, for the first two offenses only. The records would be purged after two years if therewere no more offenses. "It's not decriminalization," said Sen. H.A. "Barney" Goltz (D-Bellingham),sponsor of the Senate decriminalization bill which died of neglect in the Senate Judiciary Committee. "It's not too much of a bill. I'm not completely satisfied, but I support it as being the best bill we can getthrough this legislature," he said. The bill passed the Senate committee May 5, with 7-4 margin. Aproposed amendment by Sen. Kent Pullen (R-Kent) failed, which would have set a mandatory two-yearimprisonment for sale of marijuana. Goltz said a change in laws is necessary because current laws donot work. He likens the use of marijuana to that of alcohol and tobacco, which were not curbed byprohibition or health threats. "It could be the public really wants marijuana part of the environment," Goltzsaid. "But the present law is not being applied or enforced and should be changed. This is our. change."U Applications are beinp taken for WE STERN FRONT editor Summer, 77.Seven copies off the resumeplus any supporting material due in HU 340 by Monday Noon, May 16 Selection will be Wednesday,May: 181977 in HU 101 at 2:00 PM Applications are being taken for WESTERN] FRONTeditor FALL1977!- Seven copies of the resume plus any supporting material due in HU 340 by Monday Noon, May i16 Selection will be Wednesday, May 181977 in HU 101 at 2:00 PM -Â£ *v* ^p rtfr A.

Four bills of interest to students may diea quiet death if no noise is made soon. The bills â€” the university name change, collective bargainingrights for state instructors, marijuana decriminalization and term paper sale reform â€” are currentlystuck in the Senate Rules Committee. This is the last stop before they go to the Senate floor, and ifpassed, on to Gov. Dixy Lee Ray's desk. The Senate Rules Committee is known for holding up bills. Asone legislative lobbyist puts it, "Senate Rules is the . graveyard of legislation." Now that the legislature isbusy with the several budget proposals, it is questionable whether they will even be acted upon.Questionable, that is, unless some pressure is put on the committee to get the bills to the Senate floor.This is where students can help. Simply by calling the legislative hotline, 1-800-562-6000 (toll free),students can urge their legislators to put pressure on the rules committee. It only takes a little time andenergy. These bills all should get a chance on the Senate floor. They've gone through what seems like an endless maze of committees in the House and Senate. To have them curl up and die in the rulescommittee would be a waste. Guest commentary Publishing important In a series of thoughtful articles,Beth Barrett has examined the relationship of teaching and publication to tenure and promotion. It is wellto remember the tenure qualifications defined in the 1969 Faculty Handbook: "Tenure should be granted to faculty members who possess such talent as scholars and teachers that the college can employ themfor the remainder of their academic careers." Similarly, for associate professor, the qualifications include " . . . strong evidence of high attainment in teaching, or research, or in other scholarly endeavor. Usually,accomplishment in more than one of these areas is expected." In the new version of the handbook thedual role of the professor as teacher and scholar is retained. There is a long and established tradition inthe academic world that a professor must be an active scholar as well as a competent teacher. Thequestion is more one of evaluation. How do we recognize a good teacher? What are the signs of an active scholar? We have a system of evaluating teaching although it is currently under review by a committee of the All-College Senate. Evaluation of scholarly activity is not easily refined to fit an evaluation form, butfaculty committees attempt to distinguish between the various types of activity, and recognize thatnot all scholarly activity results in publication. Nonetheless, in those fields where publication istraditionally the measure of the scholar, the committees look for publications in refereed journals asthe most obvious mark of success. In other fields different criteria are used but are agreed upon beforethe evaluation takes place. For example, an artist is expected to put on shows in centers where work iscritically evaluated; an accountant, to write for professional journals; a planner, to educate other plannersthrough symposia, and through distribution of work for critical review. Most faculty achieve the goals setby the academic community, remain professionally active, and become competent teachers. As Ireviewed the files of all those faculty who were applicants for tenure and promotion, I was impressed bythe high level of activity of the faculty at this institution. Faculty are publishing, performing, andcontributing to symposia at national meetings of learned and professional societies, while also gettinggood reviews of their teaching. The importance of scholarly activity is clearly recognized here. Problemsoccur only where faculty have ignored early warning signals. Annual evaluations will point to deficienciesin teaching and scholarship. If these warnings^ are ignored, promotions are delayed and tenure may bedenied. The faculty and administration at Western work together to maintain a high quality environment.Publication by faculty is an important element in our efforts but it is not the only factor and should not beover-estimated. â€” James Talbot Talbot is Vice President lor Academic Affairs and Provost.. Torn overporn First Amendment threatened JAMES TALBOT Larry Flynt and Al Goldstein publish smut. Somewill say that what they publish has no literary value whatsoever. This would be hard to prove otherwise.Yet, does anyone have the right to tell them they can't publish whatever they want to? Essentially, thisis the main question involved with the obscenity issue today. It amounts to a supreme test of our right tofreedom of speech, guaranteed under the First Amendment. Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine, andGoldstein, publisher of Screw magazine, both face possible long jail sentences for obscenity-relatedconvictions. Their decisions are being appealed. Their convictions are a result of a 1973 a lt;M -Hoe.Juefo*? TCS ouer m 4/5/e 4 . "3 Supreme Court ruling which left obscenity regulation up to "communitystandards." The vagueness of this term has allowed such conservative cities as Wichita, Kan., forexample, to convict Goldstein. Goldstein and Flynt offer no excuses for the smut they are publishing.Both Screw and Hustler are known for their explicit crotch shots and unsophisticated sex stories. "Iwanted to talk about sex the way we talked about it on the farm, at the factory and in the Navy," Flyntsays. Goldstein, in an article in New York Times Magazine, is described as "being as offensive aspossible, as often as possible to as many people as possible." In a recent issue of Screw, he ran acartoon depicting the nine Justices of the Supreme Court having sex with animals, vegetables and miner-als. These same men might someday try his case. Offensive? Yes. Poor taste? Yes. But should anyone be jailed for being offensive and showing poor taste? Rolling Stone magazine Editor Jann Wenner saysno. "A guy is being jailed by a law promulgated by the Nixon Court," he says of Flynt. "It's an outrage.Since when has bad taste been a crime?" Apparently somebody thinks it should be. Flynt has beensentenced to 7 to 25 years for "pandering obscenity," Goldstein faces a possible 60 years in jail forsending obscene material through the mails. A frightening situation would face us if their conditions areupheld. Two men may go to jail for exercising their First Amendment rights. More importantly, the FirstAmendment would be severely damaged. The door would be open for censorship of true literary works.Regardless of their literary content, Hustler and Screw have a legitimate right to exist. It would be nice to let all the things labeled "good" exist, and all the things labeled "bad" not exist, but it's not that easy.With the First Amendment at stake, the bad has to be taken with the good. â€” John Nelson hoof-in-mouth Editor's Note: This is the second half of the Hoof-in-Mouth column on tenure and promotion. Inaddition to more specific tenure criteria, the Front also offers some ideas to enhance the system'sefficiency. First, all cluster college and departmental tenure and promotion committees should bedisbanded. They are a waste of personnel and time. Vice President for Academic Affairs James Talbotshould serve as a one-man committee since he, according to himself, must ultimately agree with all T P standards. Why expend energy on numerous committees (and the increased bureaucracy they cause) when one man can handle the job so efficiently? In addition, professors applying for tenure should lay afolio at Talbot's feet containing the following items: 1} Publication notices 2) Poor student evaluations 3)A short, philosophical poem praising the Olscamp administration and the quality of education. The Frontsuggests the poems be submitted to Pulitzer Prize winner Annie Dillard or the Jeopardy editor for finalapproval. Once Talbot has granted tenure, a wondrous ceremony will ensue on the sidewalk in front ofOld Main. All campus administrators will line up in descending bureaucratic order, facing Old Main andwith their backs to the sidewalk. Talbot will stand at the top of the entrance stairs. The honoredprofessor, to the measured grandeur of "Pomp and Circumstance," will walk slowly up the sidewalk.Starting with the lowliest administrator, he will systematically kiss the central rear anatomy of eachbureaucrat. Once he has graced Olscamp with a peck, he will ascend Old Main's stairs and bow atTalbot's feet. Talbot will chant a prayer to the House Higher EducaUonCommitteo and then bless theprofessor in Latin: "Grantus tenurus!" The professor will arise with tears in his eyes and orate a copyof his longest published article. Professors who are denied tenure will be sent to a corrective institution,such as a community college, in hopes they eventually will see the errors of their ways. Praise be to the father (Olscamp), the son (Talbot) and the holy ghost (the spirit of readin', writin' and 'rithmetic.) â€”Greg Hoofnagle staff EDITOR; Greg Hoofaagle NEWS EDITOR: Bruce Hyland FEATURE EDITOR: LizVerdier PHOTO EDITOR: Bill Slater ARTS iENTERTAINMENT: Liz Rust SPORTS EDITOR: BruceStinshoff OPINION EDITOR: John Nelson HEAD COP?

One in four Americans will develop cancer in their lifetime and one in five will die from it. Ifyou happen to be living in a highly industrialized area, your chances are even greater of developingcancer, and if you happen to be a long-term asbestos insulation worker you have a 50 per cent chanceof dying of cancer. Instead of chastising the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for enacting theDelaney clause, we ought to thank them. The argument that the scientific data derived from animalresearch is invalid and is at best ignorant criticism. Every chemical known to be carcinogenic tohumans (with the exception of Trivalent Arsenic) is also carcinogenic to animals. Many chemicals now recognized as carcinogenic to humans were first identified by animal testing. Also, I believe theargument for administering large doses of potential carcinogenic material to test animals is valid.Industry has perpetuated the myths about such testing to minimize the significance of the effects ofhuman exposure to particular carcinogenic or toxic chemicals. If the sugar addicts want theirmethadone then let them buy it as a drug, but don't routinely expose innocent people to carcinogens.A recent Environmental Protection Agency study found Dieldrin in 80 per cent of the milk of nursingmothers nationwide. (Dieldrin is a known carcinogenic pesticide). We ought to be damn mad atindustry for polluting our environment for the sake of profits, at government for covering it up and at the press for blindly perpetuating myths about cancer and the safety of industrial products. This letteronly scratches the surface. Look around you: one, in five will die from cancer, and the rate is increasingannually. We have to start cleaning up somewhere! Pat Byrne Senior, Biology-Chemistry Editor,western Front: Kevin Raymond's opinion (Front, May 6) in regard to U.S. payments of war reparations to Vietnam is misleading and is inconsistent with the true facts. Raymond attempted to reason that theUnited States has a moral obligation to "heal the war wounds." Raymond states, "America forgetsquickly . . . the Vietnam nightmare is almost forgotten here," but what about the families of the 56,000 U.S. servicemen who were lost in the war? How fast will they forget? No, the moral argument is tooweak to be used as a negotiating crutch.

A quick assessment of postwar events would be more appropriate.After United States withdrawl, North Vietnam completely disregarded the agreement initialed on Jan.23, 1973 by Le Dec The and Henry Kissinger. Within a year and a half, Communist forces had taken the country in direct conflict with the Paris Accords. North Vietnam kept no part of the agreement. Closeexamination shows that "in fact" the context of the agreement contains no requirement for the UnitedStates to pay any reparations to Vietnam. Why then, should the United States be obligated to payeven $1 in aid to Vietnam? As Henry Kissinger pointed out in a recent press conference, "U.S.economic aid priorities should be kept in alphabetical order."

Work-study offers summer jobs by JESSIE MILUG AN There is not an overabundance of jobs in Bellingham, but financial aid eligibility or a willingness to try manual labor-areattributes that may open doors when looking for work this summer. The summer work-study programprovides full-time work for students who are eligible for financial aid next fall, Cathy Dudik, coordinator for the Student Employment Center (SEC) said. Applications are still being accepted. Most work-study jobs are with public service non-profit organizations, particularly "summertime industries working with children, such as Whatcom County Parks Department, Bellingham Park Commission, theYMCA or the YWCA," Dudik said. These types of jobs can also be applied for through the SummerYouth Employment Program (SPEDY), 115 W. Magnolia. SPEDY has low-income eligibilityrequirements similar to the financial aid program here, except applicants must be 16-21 years old, Dudik said. "This is the time to look for a summer job," Susan Wolfe, interviewer at Employment Security,said. "Production increases this time of year. Construction, landscaping, canneries all step up. Kidsare going to be out of school and then there are tourists," Wolfe said. Bumblebee Cannery, Squali-cum Waterway, and Peter Pan Seafood, 207 Harris, begin hiring for the fishing season in late June and runthrough October, plant managers said. "We've put many people through college," Wes Fahls-trom,Bumblebee manager, said. Both canneries have wages starting at approximately $4 an hour and bothmanagers said work includes cleaning or unloading fish and production-related work aroundmachines. Janitorial work and retail sales are also in demand here, Betty Willert, of EvergreenEmployment Center, said. The center, 119 Broadway, does place clients in part-time and full-timesummer work, Willert said. Both Wolfe and Dudik said berry picking in the area could provideopportunities for students needing extra cash this summer. Employment counselors say job huntingwill take a lot of initiative. "It is important to be there when the job opens. Employers don't necessarilykeep applications on file because people are continually coming in to check," Wolfe said.

Lade, who also had apowerful voice, led the stable men's chorus in what became the "show stopper," "Blow High, Blow Low."The choreography and dance performances were the strongest point of the production, with beautiful,graceful performances given by many dancers. Louisa Ward, who played Billy and Julie's daughter,Louise, performed with great form in the beach ballet, with the help of dancers David Berkey, Nora Martin, Jody Mallahan and Dan Weber. Another traditional high point of the show, "You'll Never Walk Alone,"was performed with the serenity and quiet power it deserves, by Martha- Benedict, who played NettieFowler. Benedict's performance probably left many tearful eyes in the audience. Dennis Catrell, of thetheatre and dance department, gave an unusual, humorous and believable performance as Enoch Snow.Catrell played the role with a slight modesty, which was a pleasant contrast to the overbearing treatment it has received from other actors. Joining Catrell was Charlotte Mickelson, who played Carrie Pipperidge. Together, the two successfully provided the necessary humorous aspects of the otherwise heavy-hearted play. Three other performances of note were turned in by James A. Korski, of the theatre and dancedepartment, who played the Starkeeper; Randy J. Karl, who played the Heavenly Friend, and Giuli EtteCasciopoppo, who played the scheming Mrs. Mullin. All three roles were strictly dramatic and wereplayed convincingly. A slightly slow beginning and a slowness in two full-cast numbers, â€” "A Real Nice Clambake" and "June is Bustin' Out All Over" â€” were the only drawbacks to the production. Timingseemed to be the trouble here, as a lot of people moving around on stage produced a somewhat clumsyeffect. As usual, the theatre and dance department created imaginative sets and costumes. Althoughnot overly elaborate, they fit the New England setting. Understudies for the roles of Billy and Julie areSteve Deines, student, and Ruth Pratt, of the speech department. Deines played his role oppositeMcCauley in the Thursday performance, Pratt will play opposite McKinney in tonight's performance.The cast encored with a reprise of an upbeat song, "June is Bustin' Out All Over," which was fortunate. In the midst of the emotion this play left, a gay note was needed.

The person largely responsible for it is Tom Patterson, a graduatestudent in performance and new coordinator of the music department's guitar program. A nativeCalifornian, Patterson studied for five years with Michael Lorimer, while at the University of California,Berkeley campus. "The Bay area is one of the most exciting centers for classical guitar in the world,"Patterson said, but he doesn't plan to move back in the near future. Patterson said he finds theNorthwest a "healthy place to be." Not only does the natural beauty of this area appeal to the hermitstreak in him (he lives in a house outside Bellingham which has neither electricity nor hot water), but hefinds it useful to him as a musician. Trees make useful conductors of sound and allow him to hear hisown music far better than he could in a city atmosphere, he said. The quiet fc H atmosphere alsoscreens him from disrupts noises from the outside, which allows him concentrate on his art. WatchingPatterson play his instrument is tender experience in itself. He has an unspok language with the guitarthat conveys his love it.' Patterson is a busy individual. He instructs well as performs. He will receive hisMaster degree in performance in a few. weeks recently performed his graduate recital at th WhatcomMuseum of History and Art. Although classical guitar is his standar instrument, he plays baroque guitaras well. Th baroque differs from the classical instrument that it is smaller and is equipped with 10 stringIts tone is lighter and more intimate than that the more familiar instrument. He sees Bellingham as "being a fruitful aret full of potential, which can become a garden or garbage dump." He and his talent will stay t push the city towards the former.

Patty Tork and Joanne Kautz are competing with eight other women for the title of MissWhatcom County, to be named at this year's Blossomtime pageant May 19. The winner will receive a$500 scholarship and represent Whatcom County at various events throughout the state, including nextyear's Miss Washington pageant. The contestants will be judged primarily on talent and appearance.Tork plans to do a jazz-dance to "I'm Gonna Fly Now," the theme form the movie "Rocky," for the talentcompetition. She is originally from Morgantown, W.Va., and moved here after attending the University ofUtah last year. She is a sophomore at Western, majoring in dance. Krautz is from Seattle, and running in her second pageant. She ran unsuccessfully for Miss Des Moines, Wash, three years ago. Kautz is ajunior majoring in music, and a resident aide at Alpha. She plans to play "Rhapsody in Blue" on thepiano, in the talent competition. In an interview Tuesday, both, said that running has been a goodopportunity to get to know the Bellingham area better, and meet more people in the community. Torksaid she is running because of the scholarship, and pointed out that it is technically a scholarshippageant. Kautz said she is also running because of the scholarship, and because it is an opportunity toplay piano in front of an audience. The contestants have been meeting for the past nine weeks, inpreparation for the pageant. Tork explained, "They (the people running the pageant) teach us how to walk, talk and sit." Being in the pageant is fun, they both said, but they expressed displeasure in the publicappearances they have made as a group. Tork commented, "They have us show our faces and getout." Kautz added, "Sometimes you feel like a herd of cattle . . . we never get invited to lunch, we're justherded in, looked at and herded out." They said they like working with the people involved. Kautz said, "Itis hard trying to keep jealousy and pride under control, but when you forget the competition the peopleare great." In response to those who criticize beauty pageants as sexist Tork said, "The beauty partdepends a lot on how you take care of yourself." Kautz said, "I have the right to assume any role in life Iwish." Bob Stevens, the executive director of the Bellingham Chamber of Commerce, said this is the first time in many years non-high schoolgirls have been allowed to run. He said this was to give the pageanta "more mature air." Kautz said she would like to see more Western women compete in the future. Alsorunning are: Kim Curtis, Sehome High; Gina Folsom, Bellingham Tech. School; Lisa Fladd, BellinghamHigh; Diane Hardin, Nooksack Valley High; Leanne Dwight, Meridian High; Laura Sibillia, Blaine High;Lori Lagerway, Lynden and Stacey Provias, a Sehome graduate. Two runners-up will each receive $250scholarships. The pageant will be held at 8 p.m. at Bellingham High School. Admission is $2.00 foradults, $1.00 for students.

Six other Western students (who wish toremain anonymous), and I went by boat to the waters off Sucia Island (about 15 miles west ofBellingham) in search of the not-so-elusive cod. We were specifically after rock cod and ling cod. Rockcod are short, round, spiney, have large bulging eyes and are generally ugly. Ling cod are long, slender,slimy, large-headed and tend to get uglier as they get bigger. Both are found in deep water, near rocksand near the bottom. Cod fishing requires very little patience, and practically no skill, a perfectdescription of our crew. We sent our "rigs" (fishing jargon) consisting of herring or smelt bait (chickenbones have been known to work) on two large hooks, with a large weight, to the bottom. Once our lineshad reached bottom, we jerked them up and down to attract the fish. Less than 15 seconds after my linetouched bottom, I hooked a fish. At the same time, two others had hooked the bottom, and were trying to pull the plug on Puget Sound. They had found the foremost danger in cod fishing â€” rocks that reachout and grab your line. By the time I had brought in my fish â€” a rock cod r~ and the others had theirnow hookless lines in, we had drifted out of the fishing area. We drive the boat back to the original spotand dropped anchor. During the next couple hours we caught several fish at this spot and did have oneexciting moment. I caught a 20 pound ling cod. This fish exemplified the greediness of cod. I hadoriginally hooked a small rock cod, but the ling swallowed it, and held on. After a brilliant(?) display offishing skills, I brought the ugly thing to the surface, where it was gaffed and hauled into the boat. After a severe beating with the handle of the gaff-hook, the ling spit out the smaller cod which left me with adouble catch. - The remainder of the afternoon was spent fishing at Parkers Reef, (off Orcas Island) andin the waters off Matia Island. By the end of the day, we had caught 16 cod and one rock which wedetermined to be sandstone. In addition to the fish, Mother Nature provided us with numerous ups anddowns. Occasionally, a couple of our crew members felt momentarily compelled to donate their half-digested lunch to the local marine life. After our trip, we prepared the fish for eating. We filleted the fish(some still alive) by making a slit along the gills, and running a knife along the backbone. After separating the skin from the meat, we were left with the best fish for fish 'n ships the sea has to offer. scoreboardSchedule Golf May 13 Women's Tennis â€” Northern- Eastern District Tournament at Pacific LutheranUniversity Men's Tennis â€” Evergreen Conference Meet at Southern Oregon State College, AshlandWomen's Track â€” NCWSA Regional Meet at University of Washington May 14 Women's Tennis â€” Northern- Eastern District Tournament at Pacific Lutheran University Men's Tennis â€” EvergreenConference Meet at SOSC Women's Track â€” Regionals at UW Lacrosse â€” University of Washington Lacrosse Club at UW Rugby â€” ; -Aside ment, Burnaby May 15 Lacrosse â€” Boeing Club atUniversity Sound NAIA District I at Spanaway May 9-10 Team Scores â€” Western 779; Simon Fraser795; Central 800; Eastern 801; Pacific Lutheran University 804; Whitman 818; Whitworth 828.

On throwing days, Reimer said, "I work on my speed and technique. I practice following through and bringing the javelinall the way back. I need to use my whole body to get my best throw." Beth Barrett gives a bit ofincentive to Reimer. Barrett also qualified for nationals in the javelin with a throw of 136-0. She is theonly other person to qualify for nationals on the women's track team. Reimer makes the javelin a priority during the season, but does not train during the off season. "If I trained more it would help. I had a latestart this season. I played basketball on the junior varsity this winter and play softball in the summer.Maybe next year I will train the year around," Reimer said. "Before a track meet, I think about mygoals," Reimer said. She will have an excellent opportunity to surpass those goals at nationals, May 19-21, at the University of California at Los Angeles. The finish of an odyssey o NOTE: This is the secondand last part of the evin Charles Hitchhiking story. At the end of le last segment, Charles and his sidekick, the iano Man, arrived at Moses Lake, the sister city f Purgatory. by KEVIN CHARLES We hadtaken the last ride with these rangers and it was beginning to look like we ad indeed taken the Last Ride. They hadn't quipped us with cement overshoes and dropped 's in the river, but after an hour in MosesLake, ve were beginning to wish they had. The first Irregular Western Front Mainline \drenalin Marathonfor Hitchhiking was eight lours old and showing signs of birth defects. The only thing biblical about Moses Lake is the mount of religious faith it takes to hitchhike out. loads run conveniently in all compass direc-ons, as do the drivers, straight, speedily, and nstoppably. he only thing biblical about Moses .ake is the amount of religious faith it akes to hitchhike out. An automotive catalogue could be filled with he carsthat passed us by. Pick-ups, sedans, ports cars, Jeeps, stationwagons and vans all ad one answer toour thumbs-up plea: cceleration. After three hours of this, the Piano Man began react helpfully to ourproblem. "Oh man, we've got to get out of here!" "Great thought, how do we do it?" "Oh man, we've got to get out of here!" I persuaded my partner to come out of the oad, frustrating his kamikaze instinct. Weleaded for the truckstop across the freeway. Any consideration of Moses Lake as a vacation pot ended,inside the truckstop restaurant. The vhite-on-white patrons gave us the quiet looks of listaste usuallydrawn by Mongols on their way a beer-blast with the horde. My long hair and he Piano Man's skin colorweren't smash hits in his town. At our request, we received service, though mietly, rude, and inexactdirections to the bus tation. Discomforted, we went back to the oadside. "We're gonna get out of here."The Piano itfan's voice had dipped into hysteria. "It's okay," I assured him. "If we don't get a ide within an hour, we'll leave." By that time, ve'd probably be arrested. Stranded one short hitch from Spokane, in aillage resembling the leavings of a cattle drive, decided upon a cowpuncher's solution, foisting our packs,we stumbled eastward oward the deeper darkness and our destination. Something scurried with us as we strode along he road beside the freeway. "Piano Man, there's something moving over here." "Right,next thing you're gonna be telling me ou're seeing snakes." We arrived at the next intersection uneaten. It melled of cow manure, and was equipped with a w stationary tumbleweeds. In a few years, we redicted, it would be a whole lot like Moses ake. The desert mice got another thrill as we hiked le three milesback to Moses Lake. The shift had hanged at the truckstop eatery as we went back and struck death-like poses. Different, younger waitresses poured the coffee. They gave us sympathetic advice, having beentrapped in Moses Lake longer than we. Still enshackled by our luck, we reeled out to the roadside again. A trio of state patrol cars were parked fender to fender in a deserted gas station. Within their sight, thePiano Man and I were about to become the accomplices of a wanted criminal. He swung out of thetruckstop and then braked as he saw us. His Japanese pickup was filled with blankets and children'stoys. "Yeah, I know what a bitch it is to be stuck in this town," he said, shifting his domestic cargo. "Ijust ripped off a guy for $300. Sucker was cheating me blind," he said. The criminal's name was Bill. Hehad spent the day working at a carnival and made off with the day's proceeds. He was helping his ex-wife move to Spokane. The state patrol had two warrants for his arrest. His ex-wife, her girl friend and he had stopped for coffee at the truck stop where he stole $10 from the cashier. Gratefully, we became part ofhis get-away. "I probably shouldn't be telling you guys this," Bill said. The caravan stopped at anothertruckstop on the eastside of Spokane. Bill bought us coffee and he was soon in motion again. By now,the police will have caught up with him. Bill gave the impression of a luckless, though enterprisingoutlaw. The truckstop in Spokane was bigger and just as'depressing as its cousin in Moses Lake. About 50 trucks slept standing up with their drivers inside. Soon we learned the truckers weren't obliged tohurry, or in some cases, even arise on Sundays. Just as quickly, we surmised that Spokane on theSabbath has all the bustle of a petrified forest. Desperate again, we stupidly accepted the first ride offered to us. Our benefactor dropped us off in the middle of the freeway. Sunrise struck as we hiked back to the truckstop along Nixon Avenue. Thirty minutes later, we abandoned the truckstop and began walkingagain. Still later that morning, the Piano Man had led us to a Denny's while I scouted the area for apromising freeway entrance. I selected the on-ramp for our last stand and we went inside to fortifyourselves. . . . the Piano Man and I were about to become the accomplices of a wanted criminal. Thethree customers already there were laughing as we sat down. They listened to our account of our mileage and self-destruction. Finally, one of them offered us the passenger section of his Honda Civic. The driver was a graduate student in geology, a sacreligious pagan-barbarian (Lodge 362) and very good company.â€¢* -V gt; We drove back through the North Cascades on Highway 20, viewing the coming ecologicaldisaster. Eyery lake and reservoir we saw had high, dry banks and very low water. The Marathon endedat our doorstep where our barbaric friend dropped us in a heap. I was 36 hours older and my body was700 miles more traveled. Some day I might again set out after a new record, but I don't think so. Justthinking about it makes my frayed brain weary.

No. "Austin Harley and I arrived in Seattle at 6:30 a.m.,Saturday, February 19, 1977. We took our positions along Avenue of the Cascades, precisely where theRainiers would appear at the height of their run-through. Some old-time tavern guzzlers tried to push usback among the green-beers, but we held our ground. (Pic A) Then the Rainiers arrived in a rush, and itwas too late to do anything but run.with them. Austin (at X) had his camera along, but he quickly realizedthe inadvisability of stopping to snap pictures. I grasped the traditional long-cup (marked by Y) to catchany Mountain Fresh run-offen route. (Pic B) The groves of academe certainly proved tame by comparison.Almost immediately, some other bottles moved in behind us â€” their apparent intention to "cap" a few ofthe spectators along one wall. Austin (again at X) began to show signs of worry, but I was too busyascertaining that one cannot run well backwards. (Pic C) Then we were in the thick of it. While Austinpeered down the neck of 90 gallons on the hoof, I searched for a way out. But as my Philosophy ofEngineering 201 professor was wont to say, "A man's reach must exceed his grasp, or what's a machinefor?" (Pic D) One second after this, we both went under. Getting sloshed, however, really wasn't as I hadanticipated. It seems that Rainiers really are fresh and friendly. I suppose if Austin and I were to visit theNorthwest a second time, we might choose to run again. Since our return to Princeton, our fellowstudents have persisted in asking us to explain the Running of the Rainiers â€” the fascination of man and liquid beast for this annual spring occurrence.

Dear Mr. Simpson;What is the purpose of going to college? Most of us probably feel that the purpose is to obtain aneducation. In order to obtain this education it is necessary to study, often using the facilities oi' theLibrary. Activities also are important. The importance of learning to live with others in the dorms orhouses cannot be denied either. Part of this living together is the attendance of house meetings. Doesthis mean that house meetings should come before studies? I think not. It does not seem right, therefore, to impose a punishment on a person who was studying at the Library just because this person misseda house meeting. This happened to a girl at Edens Hall. She had not come in later than the regularclosing hours of 10:45 pirn. She had done nothing unbecoming to a lady. Her studying instead ofattending the house meeting drew her the severe punishment of nine campuses. Punishment forstudying is a violation of the purpose of college, and is unfair. Perhaps other readers might have some comments on this situation. Sincerely, Elva Naff (Ed. Note) Amen. I'm on your side. To The Editor;Judging from Homecoming Skit Night's primitive exhibition, am I to be led to believe that Americanhumor has descended into a morbid state of unhealthy degradation? Or has American humor alwaysbeen sick? The seeming inability of the audience to discern between the decent joke and the crudeone was a most disappointing observation. Shall I bring the news back home to the Philippines thatAmerica is the "Trail's End"? Perhaps we need more people like Jerome Glass who can lift us to ahigher level of culture, and less pipe-smoking Ivy Leaguers who with their constant wailing and moaningdrag innocent tribal natives with them. Sincerely, Myrna Gill Homecoming was a great success lastweek! There was more planning put into that one week than for any activity last year. I have never seenso many activities coordinated and operated with so few problems. I think that Jerry Caton and KarenJohnson deserve a personal word from each ot you. Many people have approached me in the past weekor so, which if nothing else, proves that the space in the paper is not going to waste en total. It must besaid that most of those people are either on one side or the other, and very few don't care for a marchingbaiid. The only people against the issue seem to be the band members and their affiliated groups. I'mstill looking for your comments in a letter. How many of you saw the parade on Saturday? If you are oneof those who noticed the floats as they went by, you undoubtly saw the winning float by the sophomoreclass. This entry was a covered wagon built out of tin foil that had a rather professional look about it. It has always been thought, at least in this quarter, that the floats were to be limited in cost and built byamateurs. From the unconfirmed rumors echoing about, it would seem that this work was insured for$2000 and would not have been taken out in the rain. Perhaps I was misinformed. If not, it may benecessary to issue rules limiting the amount of monies to be used in the construction of floats. Nextweek is National Education Week and there are going to be big doings on campus. Among the benefits of the week's activities will be a little quiz to enable the student to find out what his T.Q. is.

Page 2WESTERN WASHINGTON COLLEGIAN November 4, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 4 - Page 3 ---------- Editorial SCIENCE BUILDING Something Missing Many visitors and passers-by of our campus look inawe and admiration at our massive and impressive new Haggard Hall of Science. Outwardly it is beautifuland graceful in spite of its massive size. But inwardly something is missing. The Building is well-equipped, and strides are being made to make it even more so. A planetarium is being worked on, andbefore too long the structure will contain a seismograph. The classrooms are comfortable and well-lighted. But still something is missing. Walking in the halls or sitting in class, a student can't help but feel asthough he were in a bomb shelter, or a prison at best. The dark-grayish walls, ceilings, floors andstairwells give a depressing atmosphere to an otherwise splendid new building. I realize that atmosphere is less important than adequate facilities. I also realize the great cost of painting the majority of thisbarren, empty interior. I could understand not painting the interior for a year or two due to limited finances. However, to postpone this project indefinitely would be a great mistake. And I understand that no plansare being made for future painting. We have a wonderful building. Why not make it even more wonderful?Science is cold and hard as it is, without having a cold, hard atmosphere. I'm sure I speak for the majority of the students when I appeal for something to be done to liven up the interior of our wonderful newScience Building. Next Tuesday is election day, and it is important for those of you eligibles to exerciseyour voting privilege. Government cannot be representative unless each individual makes it so. TheCollegian is supporting the local Civic Field issue. All of you have by now seen Bel ingham's best facilityfor football, that ancient, weather-beaten, mud-bogged, Battersby Field. Last year (the Civic Fieldproposal would have passed had all the College eligibles voted. It lost by a scant 50 votes. Let's notmake the same mistake this year that we made last year. Vote! (Ed. Noteâ€” Several letters came in toolate for publication, and will not be used until the next issue on Nov. 16. Monday at 5 p. m. is the absolute deadline for letters.) CIVIC FIELD RALLY Eill Zagelow and Gary Norman have been appointed co-chairmen of the Norsemen sponsored Civic Field rally, Monday, Nov. 7. The rally, to be conductedthroughout the city of Bellingham, will serve as a reminder to the voters of Bellingham to vote lor theCivic Field proposal. All clubs on campus have been invited to take part by the Norsemen, who areacting as organizers only. The rally will begin at 7 p.m. in front of the Industrial Arts Building and willproceed downtown with a police escort. "Both Bellingham and Western will profit by a Civic Field,"stated Zagelow, "and a strong showing by the College will show the people of Bellingham thatWestern is willing to help out in this respect." All interested persons are urged to contact one of theoificers of the Norsemen Club or leave their names with the Dean of Men.

D'Andrea's stand comes as a result oi. the recentLegislature battle with Jerome Glass on the marching band de-emphasis program, started at the adventof Dr. Jarrett's administration last year. When asked to comment on the program Glass replied, "I feelthat I would be asking entirely too much of the band members to require that they spend five to ten hours every week drilling for halftime entertainment, when they could be spending that time furthering theirown musical ability." "Not only does a marching band require time," Glass continued, "but it isexpensive." As to the expense, it was found that the greatest single cost incurred by the band in thepast has been the purchase and maintenance of uniforms, which are only used four or five times eachyear, according to D'Andrea. There has been a good deal of furor raised about "The Letter" which Glasswas supposed to have written to all the local high schools telling them that Western would not participate in any of their functions, because we (Western) no longer had a marching band. According to Glass,this is not so. "I wrote only one letter and that was to the Band Chairman for the Bellingham BlossomFestival informing him that we would no longer have a marching band at Western, and that we wouldnot actively participate in the parade." Later Glass offered direct services, "as the band would be morethan happy to play as a concert band." Extra-Curricular Activities It happened that the man who waschairman of the bands Cor the Blossom Festival, is also the man in charge of all the Bellingham Public School's music curriculum, Dr. Clifford Leedy. When asked by the Homecoming committee to marchin the parade, Leedy refused on the grounds that he felt it would be a detriment to the marching bandpolicy at Western, and Glass, if he accepted. Leedy had a different viewpoint on marching bands, "I don't know how it is in college, but we have different phases of curriculm to take care of in high Page 4school. The regular curriculm is the concert band, which gives a public recital once every year. Themarching band makes up the greater part of the extra-curricular activities." For precision drills, Leedysaid, the band spends one hour every day practicing for a period of two to three weeks before an event.This is a total of ten or fifteen hours of drill which manifests itself in ten minutes of slopping about on thesoggy turf at Battersby Bog for the amusement of a few fans who are more concerned with staying drythan with watching halftime entertainment. This is not to say that Leedy should not have a marchingband. Rather, it brings up the question, do the results prove worthwhile? It would be proper to here tosample the opinions of those who are involved. Commented Dr. Jarrett; "I've taken the position that theexcessive re-hersal time required is not worth the results." From Band Director Glass: "We have neverrefused to play for any high school or college function as a concert band. But aside from immediatecollege activity (such as Homecoming) we do not have a marching band." Dr. D'Andrea: "It is thefunction of the halftime show to satisfy the students. We try to do this with as little time, and damageto equipment, as possible." Said Dr. Leedy; "The marching band is certainly one of the most effectivepublic relations devices a school can have." The Legislature: "Everybody else has one, why can't wehave one too?" HOMECOMING The Western Roundup will go down in Western history as one of theschool's finest Homecomings. "This has been the best Homecoming in my four years here," commentedone Western senior. A 'Western' Legend A iScene From Skit Night The Queen's Ball last Saturdaynight was the climax to a flurry of activities. Steve Loughery provided soft music as well as some oi therompingest, stompingest music heard in this area in a long time to the transient crowd of students,royalty and faculty in the Gym. The College Dance Band played its usual fine brand of music in theViking- Union. Announced at each dance were the winners for the various competitive activities. DanielsHall won the award for the best men's house display for the. third consecutive year with an array ofcartoon characters reacting to a Bayview's Winning House Display WESTERN WASHINGTONCOLLEGIAN November 4, 1960 ---------- Western Washington Collegian - 1960 November 4 - Page 5 ---------- Burma Shave slogan. Bay vie w had the best girl's house display with its "Up Down Saloon." A "wishy-washy" commercial in a satire about television earned Todd Hall the award for the best skit. Bob'ssinging and Jim's piano playing enabled the Brown brothers to win the best in-between act at SkitNight. Announced at Skit Night were the winners of the beard-growing contest. Cal Graham and DuaneOlson were the fellows with the finest fuzz. The sophomore class won two honors by having thebest float and the best window display. The float was a covered wagon drawn by four paper machehorses. Kluane Hall had the best decorated car. Barbara Logsdon, lovely Queen Sig-rid XXIII, wasgraceful in the traditional dance with President Jarrett. She and her Royal Court concluded thefabulous weekend with the Last Roundup, after which the Western Roundup became a Western legend.AVERILL HARRIMAN Democratic Mudslinger by Frosty Billingsley The auditorium was packed lastTuesday with anticipant listeners intent on hearing the words of the ex-governor of New York, AverillHarri-man. Whatever it was all those people were waiting to hear from this noted personage, I don't thinkthey heard it. Instead they heard sarcastic generalities which seemed to this reporter to bedesigned for a political rally composed of high school reactionists. Perhaps it couldn't even qualify asa political rally. At a function of that sort, the party sponsoring the rally usually presents its plans andstands, and gives an intelligent, reasonable look at the failings of the opposing factor. This wassomething different. What the honorable Mr. Harriman presented was a Democratic mud-sling at theRepublican nominees, the present administration and the Republican Party in general. Mr.Harriman stated, "Unhappily, we have lost the image abroad of a nation that is interested in people. Wehave been demanding military alliances and the use of bases. It's 'what's in it for us militarily?' We areagainst Communism, but we haven't made it plain what we are lor." I would think that this comment could have been amplified during the course of the speech, but it wasn't. I still November 4, 1960 "KennedyLooks Forward" don't know what "we are for" or what Mr. Harriman's faction is for. "Lodge . . . ATelevision Star" I do know however that "our impartial correspondents have reported from abroad thedecline everywhere in our prestige," and that "There is no doubt that this (devastation and dislocationcaused by war) would have happened, had it not been for our (Democratic) inspired leadership in theMarshall Plan," and that "Nixon claims to be an expert on foreign affairs just because he had a kitchen debate with Khruschev," and that "Mr. Lodge is a nice fellow, but he's a television star . . . " (whateverstain on a man's character this implies). For one, I should like to have Mr. Harriman back for anotherspeech to elaborate on the only truly positive statement he made all evening, "Mr. Kennedy looksforward." AMERICAN EDUCATION WEEK American Education Week will be observed the week of Nov. 7-12, with three lectures slated for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and several discussions andmovies also planned. Jim Boyles, President of Student Washington Education Association, announcedthat Dr. Jarrett will be the first speaker Monday at 4 p.m. in the Viking Union. His topic will be "Religion and Higher Education". Mr. Roy Mumme of the Education Department will speak later in the week. A series ofi movies during the week will deal with the aspects of education, with showings in the morningsand afternoons followed by discussions. : The five organizations which are sponsoring the week'sactivities are SWEA, the Association for Children's Education (ACE), Music Educator's WESTERNWASHINGTON COLLEGIAN National Committee (MENC), Kappa Delta Pi and United Campus Christian Foundation. The first four are pre-professional student organizations designed especially for teachereducation students. SWEA is the future teacher's professional group. It assumes responsibilityfor improving the quality of tomorrow's teachers by offering opportunities to learn about problems andchallenges in the field of teaching, as well as the ethical and legal responsibilities of teachers. Oneprogram planned for January will be a mock placement interview, which could be invaluable to manystudents who fear such interviews. The Western chapter, which was awarded a trophy as the topchapter in the state last year, will send eleven delegates to the regional conference tomorrow in Seattle.^ ACE, geared for working with children from ages two to 12, has planned â€žne topic "The Child andthe Com munity" for this year's programs. Among the activities offered to college students are practice in preparing units in drama, reading, arts and crafts, music or games, or directing a unit of activities inany of a number of youth clubs here in town. MENC offers valuable programs for anyone interested inmusic education. Membership in the club provides opportunity for an active part in planning andoperating music festivals and contests as well as providing vital experience for aspiring music teachers.Kappa Delta Pi is a national honor society for education majors. Membership in the club requires athree-point gpa and is invitational. The club offers recognition for scholastic achievement as well assupplementing the teacher preparation program with further consideration of the teaching profession.STUDENT RECITAL The first of a series of student recitals under the auspices of the MusicDepartment is scheduled for 3 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 9 in the Viking Lounge. Performers to bepresented are soprano, Carolyn Fichter accompanied by Sheila Simpson; pianist, Beverly Carr; anda violin duo composed or Sally Cooper and Linda Lawson accompanied by Sharon Minge. This newcampus facility provides an ideal setting for the informal presentation of students for whom thisexperience is an integral part of their training.

Last week, 3000 people saw evidence of this. With 24 seconds left in a tie ballgame, WWC quarterback SteveHansen faded back and fired a 34 yard strike to freshman halfback Roger Schmidt for the winning TDand a 13 to 7 victory over the Eastern Washington Savages. The game, until that point, had been adefensive battle between the two teams. Offensively, WWC dominated the first half while Eastern tookcharge in the third stanza. The fourth quarter was a standoff for 14 minutes Ladines garners 8 yards asRingenbach blocks Coach Abe Poffenroth's charges run from the multiple offense, using variations off the T and single wing from an unbalanced line. Their all-everything back, sophomore Harvey Rath, is justabout as big an offensive threat as is found anywhere in the Northwest. Running from the tailback sloton the single wing formations, Rath shines on the power sweeps with an occasional running pass.Rebounding from a first game loss, Central began to pick up steam. They knocked over three opponents,including Western, but were suprisingly upended last week by PLU. Obviously the Wildcats will befired up and eager to make their Homecoming a complete success with a victory over the Viks. ViksImproving Every Game However, Jim Lounsberry's Vikings are going to be out in full force to get sweetrevenge for their earlier loss to Central. The Viks, becoming more and more familiar with Lounsberry'sofiense, have been improving and 36 seconds until the big payoff. Almost all the Viks had their moments to shine on defense. Ron Ladines, Leland Wolf, Mike McVay, Roland Siggs and Jerry Beringer allturned in crunching tackles at one time or another. Steve Hansen accounted for both touchdowns as healso hit Doug Ringenbach in the end zone Cor six points. Ladines, Leroy Fuller and especially littleDale Johansen all ran very well from their backfield slots. "It was a sweet win." RUGBY Rugby Clubdrops 1st game by Ray Devier Last Saturday afternoon the Western Washington ruggers sufferedtheir first defeat at the hands of the UBC Physical Education team by the score of 8 to 3. The defeat, inthe words of Al Mathieson, player-coach, was due to the fact that "the team still lacks unity in its rugbyfundamentals." Experience was the major factor according to Mathieson. For the Viks, Gary Tangen scored the lone try. This week the Viks have been busy as they prepare to meet the Mara-loma RugbyClub, last year's second division champions. The representatives of this club later placed second inlast spring's California tourney. The game will be played in Bellingham at the Shuksan Junior HighSchool playfield at 1:30 p.m. SWIMMING Intramurals to begin All interested swimmers are invited toparticipate in the annual Intramural Swim Meet, which will be held at 4 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 9 in theCollege Pool.

Swine flu is a respiratory disease that causes symptoms similar to the seasonal flu, including fever, cough, sore throat, , body aches, headaches, chills and fatigue. Swine flu can also cause people to be more susceptible to other diseases, such as pneumonia. Dr. Emily Gibson, director of West-" ern's Student Health Center, said the health center has conducted rapid tests for more than 100 cases of flu-like symptoms, but all of the tests "came back negative. "They are coming in with classic flu symptoms," Gibson said7"But it is another virus, and is not something that is out of the ordinary for this time of year." Gibson said nurses are available by phone at the health center 24 hours a day for those who think they might be infected. The nurses ask callers to describe their symptoms and then determine if they need to come in for a test or to see a doctor. To minimize waiting time, the health center is encouraging students to call prior to coming in, unless it is an emergency. She. said if someone tests positive for swine flu, he or she would be quarantined and asked to avoid being on campus so they would not be in.contact with other people.

TUITION INCREASE Bleak outlook for student finances Jenny Farrington THE WESTERN FRONT Western students and Associated Students (AS) Board Members are concerned about future financial difficulties for students after the state legislature's recent approval of increasing Washington state universities yearly tuition cap to 14 percent for the 2009-11 academic years, AS President Erik Lowe said. The increase in tuition is designed to help Western offset the state's decision to cut its operating budget by $17.5 million. If Western's Board of Trustees approves the increase, students should expect to pay an extra $600 each academic year. "I mostly rely on financial aid," Western junior Glaire Russell said. "A lot of my tuition money also comes from grants. I haven't had to take out any loans yet, but now I will probably have to." The AS board tried to maintain the 7 percent tuition increase, AS legislative liaison Morgan Holmgren said. "The 14 percent increase is tied with the largest in the past decade," Holmgren said. "This dramatic increase will force more students to take out larger loans, and more students will have significantly higher debts." ' In 2002, the Board of Trustees voted to adopt the president's university op see INCREASE page 3 mmmm Western purchases energy certificates to create 'green1 production in Iowa Anne Maertens THE WESTERN FRONT Western has completed the purchase of its first 10,000 renewable energy certificates from its new provider, the EarthEra Renewable Energy trust, a part of NextEra Energy Resources. Western buys the certificates, which support "green" energy, to offset greenhouse gases emitted from its electrical use. In total, Western will purchase 40,000 certificates, which are optional, in 2009, totaling $140,000. The certificates are paid for through Western's $7 Renewable Green Energy Student Fee, one of the many fees of a full-time student. The certificates represent the difference in the cost of producing renewable energy versus the cost of traditional energy productioni like coal, said Ron Bailey, operations support manager at Western. Each certificate equates to one megawatt- hour of electricity produced. While Western will continue to purchase all of its electricity from Puget Sound Energy, they will spend an additional amount of money in certificates to support EarthEra's Endeavor Wind Farm in Iowa. For EarthEra, the excess cost for one certificate, or one megawatt-hour of electricity produced is $3.50, Bailey said.

NASA awards grant for Western project The 13 students from Western's College of Sciences and Technology who were selected to receive funding from NASA's Space Grant Consortium for a research project earlier this year will present their results during Scholars Week, May 18-22. The NASA Space Grant Consortium is designed to give students a more in- depth understanding of academic research espe-. dally for those students planning to teach science at any level. Western's College of Sciences and Technology was one of 16 organizations to receive funding from the NASA's Space Grant Consortium. Waterfront forum seeks public input on Western future Western will hold a public forum to receive input and reactions to ideas for potential waterfront development on Tuesday, May 12,from 4 to 5:30 p.m: at the Academic Instructional Center West room 210. The forum, offers the opportunity for faculty, staff, students, alumni and members of the community to comment and contribute new ideas to the physical elements of the waterfront campus and its relationship with the surrounding area. Input generated during the forum is necessary to prepare for future steps of the development. Northwest Native art evolution lecture Native American artist Shaun Peterson will visit Western's campus on Thursday, May 14, to present alecture entitled "Switching Current: Examining Northwest Coast Native Art's Accelerated Evolution in the 20th Century and Onward" from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. in the Science Mathematics and Technology building room 150. Peterson's lecture will focus on his integration of digital media into his work and the resistance of fellow native artists. As a member of Puyallup/Tulalip tribes Peterson began as a printmaker but in the past few years has branched but into many different mediums including wood, metal and glass sculpture, digital media and writing.

The presentation, which is free and open to the public, is part of the Huxley. College Speaker Series and will be taking place at 3 p.m. in Communications Facility room 125. News Briefs compiled by Elizabeth Hanson and Megan Jonas Western estimates reducing 164 jobs Western President Bruce Shepard released a draft of the operating budget for the 2009-2011 biennium Wednesday that projected 164 employee positions will be eliminated due to the $18.9 million reduction in Western's operating budget. The impact of the decision will be lessened by cutting vacant positions first and by trying to find other positions at Western for some employees whose positions will be eliminated. Still, Shepard estimates 40 people whose contracts expire at the end of the academic year will not be re- hired and 25 additional people will have to be laid off. Apublic forum regarding the biennium budget will be held May 14 at 2:30 p.m. in Academic Instructional Center room 204.

Currently, the average student at Western owes roughly $18,000 in financial aid debt upon graduation. With the 14 percent tuition increase, students could expect to graduate between $23,000 and $25,000 in debt, Holmgren said. "I'm going to be affected because this is my last year being supported by my parents," Western junior Amanda Waugh said. "So it's definitely not the perfect time for the increase, and I just don't know if financial aid will cover all of my costs." While this dramatic increase in tuition is upsetting to many students, some understand the reasoning behind it, Holmgren said. "I understand the college doesn't really have a choice," Western junior Andrew Bethman said. "I'm just glad I'm go-ing to graduate next year. I've been taking 20 credits every quarter to get out of here as fast as lean." With the tuition increase, diversity in Western's student body could also be impacted, Lowe said. "People who are going to be the most affected by the increase in tuition are students of color, first-generation college students and students from low-income backgrounds," Lowe said. Essentially, the university is going to shut out those people they are supposed to be serving as an institution, Lowe said. "It's upsetting because the economy is going downhill, and I don't have the money to pay for this even though it's necessary," Western senior Sharon LeB-eau said. "It's hard to have to think about ture; we need people in office who realize the value of higher education. "No one cares about the future educa- " I understand the college doesn't really have a choice. I'm just glad I'm going to graduate next year. I've been taking 20 credits every quarter to get out of here as fast as I can. paying more when we just don't have the money." . Lowe said the tuition increase is a result of the crisis in leadership the students have when it comes to the state legisla- - Western junior Andrew Bethman tion of the state. It all boils down to getting re-elected, and no one is holding them accountable," Lowe said. "We did the best we could as students. We need a legislature who understands the importance of photo illustration by Brandon Kays THE WESTERN FRONT higher education." When things get bad economically, education is the first thing to get cut, Lowe said. "The university doesn't have a choice; we are past the point where we can advocate for more money," Lowe said. Most students will see the value of higher education and will end up crippling themselves getting that education, Lowe said. However, making that choice ends up having some negative costs after graduation that many students are unable to anticipate now, Lowe said. "Some will say 'I can't afford.it,' but more will put themselves in that debt," Lowe said. "This means it will take them longer to afford homes, start families and people will be taking jobs that pay the bills rather than finding that job that's important and meaningful to them." Western freshman Patrick Shelton is a first-generation college student and said the tuition increase seems unfair. "My family and I didn't even really know what we were getting ourselves into with this tuition increase," Shelton said. "It's just going to make it even harder on us now with me having to take out more loans." However, Lowe said there is a silver lining and learning opportunity with the tuition increase. "Students need to realize how important it is to be knowledgeable of and participate in state politics," Lowe said. "Relatively few people participate, and the result is a situation like this where the legislature is not held accountable and everybody suffers." NOW PRE-IEASING FOR FALL QUARTER!!!

By supporting a wind farm in Iowa, Western is chipping away at the overall production of non-renewable energy. Producing wind power creates a lower demand for coal, which is the main energy generator used in Iowa, Bailey said. Bailey said Iowa is in greater need for green energy production than Washington because the Pacific Northwest predominately uses hydropower, which produces significantly less greenhouse gas than coal. "The general belief within the scientific community is that greenhouse gases cause climate change, and it is necessary to take steps to reduce [the gases] in order to stop the change," said Rose Woofen-den, president of Students for Renewable Energy. Influencing a region of the United States in need of cleaner production was one of the criteria considered by a panel made up of Students for Renewable Energy, faculty and staff when they evaluated the nine possible certificate .providers, Bailey said. The panel used a formula developed by Western economics professor Dan Hagen to analyze the companies. It determined that EarthEra had the greatest greenhouse gas offset while costing $100,000 less than PSE, Bailey said. "The formula is unique to Western and unique to the whole process," Bailey said. "We came out with a method to purchase [certificates] based on their environmental attributes." The local environmental impact, negative or positive, created by the facility, was another determining factor. A wind Eckankar presents !!!!Â§ Satutclay afternoon sessibn is FREE fop ^; tKeentire Weekend. farm in the middle of a farmer's field will have a different environmental impact than a wind farm in the middle of a city, Bailey said. Finally, the panel wanted to support "additionality," which means Western's financial support will help the certificate provider go beyond its normal development and create more green energy through wind or solar power, he said. Not only was the decision to use EarthEra unanimous, Woofenden said she was pleased with the process as a whole and hopes to improve the process further over the years. Students had a say in nearly 60 percent of the decision. "They came to us and said, 'You're the students, how would you like to do things?'" Woofenden said. "This is our future, our money, and they were here to assist us, which we really appreciated." Many schools in the U.S. buy certificates to offset their environmental impacts, said Blaine Collison, director of Environmental Protection Agency's Green Power Challenge. Holding the most certificates out of the nine schools in the Great Northwest Athletic Conference, the EPA has recognized Western.as an individual conference champion in its 2008-09 College and University Green Power Challenge. The challenge uses athletic conferences as a means of comparison because . the conferences usually contain colleges of similar size, Collison said. It highlights pockets of leadership to encourage other schools to join in and help create more demand for green energy, he said. "We're trying to leverage the demand side of the market in order to stimulate the supply side," Collison said. "We want to show producers that people care about where their energy comes from." pfctocpurtesyof University Communications These solar panels are located on top of Western's Viking Union, they are examples of Western's efforts to use green energy to reduce its carbon footprint and help the world by using power sources that produce less greenhouse gas than other energy sources, such as coal. ---------- Page 5 ---------- westernfrontonline.net I Friday â€¢ May 8,2009 NEWS I 5 Huxley professor gauges demand in energy major Tristan Hiegler THE WESTERN FRONT When Western professor Andy Bunn checked the sign- up for his energy and the environment course during winter quarter, he noticed the. class filled up within the first couple minutes of registration. The demand from Western students for a renewable energy program is over* whelming, Bunn said. The few classes offered in the department of environmental science that are focused on energy have filled up immediately, he said. Bunn, an assistant professor of environmental science,.is working to introduce a renewable energy major. He said the project is still in the works, but he is optimistic about its eventual success. Western junior Casey Pape has designed his own environmental science major at the Huxley College of the Environment with the emphasis on energy. He said he was surprised at the lack of an energy curriculum, but remained hopeful about the progress the creation of such a curriculum could bring. "In my opinion, it's a way to bridge a lot of gaps and to tie a lot of departments together," Pape said.' Bunn said the major would combine teaching science, policy and business. He said the major would draw on these elements to turn students into professionals well suited to work in the current renewable energy field. "We're trying to.build a program to span the range," he said. Western alumnus Orion Polinsky said when he attended Huxley in 2008, no comprehensive curriculum existed in. renewable energy. As a student interested in the field as a potential career path, he had to design his own major. He said he would like; to see the process streamlined for.future students interested in the field. â€¢T wish they had it when I was going to school," he said. v : Polinsky is currently the co-founder and director of research at Whole Energy Fuels Corporation, which produces biod^ iesel'for the Pacific Northwest. He said there is a definite need for a streamlined training process on renewable energy both in the Pacific Northwest and around the world. Bradley Smith, dean of Huxley College of the Environment, said he thinks the world needs leaders in therenewable energy field. The creation of the major would involve bringing together the needed expertise and packaging and reshaping photo by Katie Greene THE WESTERN FRONT Huxley environmental science associate professor Andy Bunn is working to create a renewable energy major at Western. Bunn said a course program on renewable energy would bring together science,, policy and business. it into the knowledge and training that the world needs in the field right now, he said. Smith said the feedback for the program from the administration, faculty and students has been positive. "This is an area in which Western could be a leader," he said. Western senior Tyler Llewellyn said Western's involvement in the emerging renewable energy field would help the university expand its reputation as a sustainable campus and bring in new students and faculty from across the nation. Llewellyn, who will be going to the University of Washington for a master's degree in environmental science, said students would benefit from an interdisciplinary renewable energy major because it would give them the scientific, engineering, policy and business knowledge they would need to be successful in the field. Bunn said the program is still a few steps away from actually being created, because many steps at the university level and the state level are needed before getting a major approved. Demonstrating the need for the major and acquiring funding are two of the most important steps. Bunn said the need has been identified, but the tricky part will be to get funding for the program. Bunn said the next step is to create a workshop over the summer during which renewable energy professionals who would visit to the university. These professionals would study the current curriculum and how it can be synthesized into something complete. He said they will be looking at the holes in the current curriculum and work to build a complete energy curriculum from the ground up.. "There's a lot out there, what we need to do is to focus it," he said.' President Barack Obama has pledged to triple production of renewable energy in the next three years, Bunn said. The stimulus bill contains more than $30 billion for renewable energy. Much of the development will take place in the Pacific Northwest, andthe area does not have the work force to meet the expected demand yet, he said. In addition to the work on the renewable energy major, Western is addressing sustainability in several other ways. Seth Vidana, coordinator for Western's Office of Sustainability, said the office is campaigning to reduce electricity, water and natural gas consumption and solid waste production on campus. The effort is called the 10x10 Campaign, which aims to reduce consumption and production by 10 percent by the end of 2010. "Sustainability takes the long view," Vidana said. "Our investments now can reap significant benefits for this year's budget and for years to come." The renewable energy major would train students in clean energy practices. Western already cuts the impact of its greenhouse gas emissions and electrical consumption by buying Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs): Ron Bailey, operations support manager with Western's Facilities Management, said the university switched to a new provider, NextEra Energy Resources, in January. RECs are certificates the university buys that allow the provider to put back into the power grid the amount of energy Western uses, all from renewable sources. Currently, the RECs are used for a wind farm in Iowa. Western buys enough RECs to fund the wind farm, which contributes the same amount of electricity Western draws from the Washington power grid to the Iowa power grid. Bailey said the certificates do not mean Western is powering itself with renewable energy but is neutralizing its impact on the environment by funding a pro-cess* that gives back what it takes in terms of power.

She said it is possible for swine flu to transmit from animals to humans, but it is specifically successful at transferring between humans. Swine flu can be spread by germs released from coughing or sneezing- Western senior Laura Binder said she is constantly in contact with other people as she works the front desk at the Wade King Student Recreation Center. "It is.definitely a little scary," Binder said. "But, I think it is a normal flu epidemic that's.been-blown out of proportion." According to the Centers'for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an average of 36,000 people die from the seasonal flu each year, whereas only two swine flu-related deaths have occurred in the U.S., compared to 42 in Mexico. Gibson said the first swine flu-related death in the U.S. was a toddler from Mexico whose family was visiting Texas. The second death was a 33-year-old woman who lived in Texas near the U.S.Mexico border. "We don't know why Mexico had all the deaths, but it certainly put everyone on notice that this could be a more virulent virus," Gibson said. The CDC has confirmed 23 cases of swine flu in Washington; the total number of states with confirmed cases is now 41.

Many suspected Swine flu cases are" simply seasonal influenza and students are advised to take the same precautions they would to avoid any form of influenza. 200,000 people are hospitalized each year from flu-related complications. As of May 7, there are 896 confirmed cases of swine flu in the U.S., according to a CDC update. "Swine flu is the most overblown, ridiculous paranoia," Western freshman Darren Veit said. "The public just goes crazy over what the media hypes up." Western freshman Drew Plommer said he is not worried about swine flu because it has not yet affected him personally here at Western. - None-the-less, Binder said she is concerned about getting sick and is washing her hands more often to try and stay healthy. Gibson said it does not take much to prevent infection of swine flu and seasonal flu. Currently, no specific vaccine exists for swine flu, but she strongly encourages students to get the seasonal flu vaccine because seasonal flu is also dangerous, she said. Another prevention method for swine flu and seasonal flu is the use of face masks. However, Gibson said while the masks are ineffective for people who are not sick, it is important for people who are coughing or sneezing to wear a mask. But she said the best prevention is what we doourselvesbystaying heajthy in general. y^^^^^g^^gj^^g^^^^^M _. ixfiksKKiii D I P H OTDTI m WARNING: ALL PATRDN5 DF CDSMIC BiNGD ARE ENCDURAGED TO BE LOUD.

The study shows that 92 percent of recent college graduates have at least one credit card and carry an average outstanding balance of $8,612, up 10 percent from 2003. Because of such a growing concern, Western will offer Finance 215, a three-credit course designed to give students a basic understanding of their finances this summer. This is the first time Western has offered this class since spring 2007. The summer course became necessary in response to a survey showing Western students lack understanding of major personal finance concepts, said Pam Hall, associate professor of finance and marketing. "Arm yourself with knowledge," Hall said. "Know what you're getting into when you borrow money." Last fall, four Western students conducted a survey for a marketing class with the goa^ of educating students on how to manage debt. Western alumnus Spencer Covich, along with three Western seniors, presented their findings.April 16 to Washington Sen. Patty Murray on their Financial Literacy Project survey. The survey results, which will be submitted to a financial education journal, showed women scored significantly worse than men in every category, except for money management, where they out-scored men, Hall said. The worst category overall was retirement, followed closely by understanding debt. PamWhalley, director of the Economics Education Center, said it is becoming more vital for students to understand basic personal finance concepts because of the economy. Students can go wrong and fall victim to things in many ways, such as identity theft, which can result as simple as students neglecting to check their credit report regularly. "The demands that are being placed on people in regards to their financial knowledge are growing astronomically," she said. Whalley said she had to learn about money the hard way. College students need to understand leasing, renter's insurance, car insurance and choosing benefits in their first job. She said the most important thing students need to understand is credit. "Your credit record is your permanent record," Whalley said. Lee McClain, a Western professor of decision sciences who will likely teach Finance 215 this summer, said employers are beginning to look at applicant's credit scores as they make hiring decisions. Credit scores can disclose personal hab- ' ' A rm yourself with knowledge. Know what you're getting into ^helriybu^ftd^rbWn^Wey: ' - Pam Hall, associate professor of finance and marketing The survey participants scored an average of about 60 percent overall. Hall . said she was appalled at the results and knew she had to offer the personal finance class again. . Hall said she helped students develop questions based on the survey's six broad categories: understanding debt, insurance, investing, money management, retirement and taxes. ; Hall said she wants to get the university to offer the class as a general university requirement (GUR). Of the nearly 1,70.0 students polled in the survey, 75 percent said they would be willing to take, the class as part of the GUR, Hall said. Covich said 97 percent of student participants said they believed personal finance was important to study. its, such as whether applicant's have paid their bills on time, which employers use as a measure of the candidate's character and reliability, he said. Hall said the class is geared toward non-finance majors and requires basic high school math skills including addition, subtraction and multiplication. "[Math] shouldn't be something that scares people away from taking it at all," Hall said. Topics covered include basic concepts, such as budgeting and how to select and appropriately use a credit card, to the different kinds of stock and what types of insurance a person needs, Hall said. The class is relevant and addresses financial goals from a personal standpoint instead of a corporate one, McClain said.

Amanda Pile's credit card at trje Viking Union Market, May 7. He said everyone has made a financial mistake at some point. "They're not alone,'.' McClain said. "They're not the only one who has screwed up a budget." * Hall said students will be asked to do a fair amount of critical thinking in the class, and students will calculate their budget and net worth, compare renting versus buying, find how inflation plays a role in their saving for retirement and evaluate different kinds of mortgages. Hall said she believes financial illiteracy is one of the factors that led to the current economic crisis. If people had a â€¢basic understanding of financial concepts, they could have made better informed decisions, she said. Money causes unnecessary stress in peoples' lives, and understanding basic financial concepts could reduce it, Hall said. "We had people taking out mortgages they couldn't afford," she said. "If they'd known they couldn't afford it, then they would have never done it." McClain said whether students take the class or not, they can educate themselves in" basic finance by simply picking up a book or magazine on personal finance at any local book store. Although, he said he thinks students would be doing themselves a favor by educating themselves now before they get too far down the road. gt; Whalley said she wants students to be informed so they can make smart decisions and avoid making preventable mistakes. "We're.not trying to make everyone hedge fund managers," she said. "We're just trying to give them the knowledge and skills they need."
