FRIDAY,DECEMBER 4,1987 Campus cash Bank machine slated for VU By SANDRA TREECE staff reporter Abank machine is likely to be installed in the Viking Union lobby in February, Western's Fiscal DirectorMary Carlson said Wednesday. A joint student-administration committee will submit arecommendation to acting Vice President for Business and Financial Affairs Peter Harris by the end of next week. If Harris agrees with the recommendation, bidding will open to local banks Jan. 22.Western officials have approached three area banks, Bel-lingham National Bank, WhatcomEducational Credit Union and U.S. Bank Corporation, parent company to ONB, with tentative proposals. While BNB representatives expressed no interest in the venture, Carlson said, WECU and ONB andother interested parties are expected to submit proposals to Western. Carlson said bidding has beenpostponed until next year to give banks that are busy during the holiday season the opportunity torespond and to have Associated Students representatives present to review the bids.

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

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

The board approved five recommendations at its Nov. 11 meeting, which will bepassed on to the state legislature's special supplementary budget session agenda in January, ASPresident Dan Wood said. "(This action) does have an impact," Wood said. "It tells legislators whatstudents want. All issues are addressed, but not all to our satisfaction." The Legislative andCommunity Affairs Council, an advisory body to the AS, began researching university needs in Octoberand came up with nine position statements. The only item proposed for the legislative agenda at theAS meeting that wasn't accepted was a $250,000 request to begin construction of a new campusdaycare center. Board members said the legislature is already committed and the request would onlybother the legislators. Approved by the board were: a proposal allowing disabled students to park free on campus; a request to increase the per-student budget allocation for Western to a level comparable toother state-supported universities and a proposed increase of minority students through recruitmentand retention programs. Also sought from the state were: an increase in the legislature-imposedstudent enrollment lid and a change in the state definition of an "independent student" to the federaldefinition, thereby relaxing the current standards of financial aid eligibility. Wood said the AS will lobbyduring the special session. "We're working on another Descend Olympia," he said, adding, last year'spilgrimage to the state capitol was a success. "We're not likely to get money out of them." Woodsaid. About 50 students wearing Western sweatshirts distributed information packets to legislators, he said. "It looked like hundreds of us were there," Wood said. "A mass of Western students swarmingon the capitol." Despite the planned lobbying efforts, Wood was not optimistic about the chances ofsqueezing the desired funds from the legislature. Trustees delay decision on guns for University PoliceA decision to arm University Police won't be brought to the Board of Trustees until after January.Because of the Nov. 4 plane crash, killing President G. Robert Ross and two vice presidents, theTrustees have postponed the decision to arm the officers, said Lt. Chuck Page. The Trustees coulddecide the matter at the next meeting, Page said. The meeting would probably be toward the end ofJanuary or beginning of February. Associated Students President Dan Wood said at Wednesday's AS Board meeting the decision may be made later if students are called to vote on the issue in a s p ec i al referendum. The students' vote would be submitted to the trustees to assist in their decision-making. University Police presented a nine-page report to the trustees at a Sept. 3 meeting requesting the police be armed with guns. Western's Public Safety Assistants, known as greencoats, are notincluded in the proposal. The campus force made a similar request in October 1980. The Board ofTrustees denied the request. Trustees consider AIDS policy By ALANA WARNER staff reporterStudents or teachers with AIDS won't be kept from Western's campus according to a policy adoptedby the Board of Trustees Thursday. Two related policies concerning AIDS and other communicablediseases were presented to Western's acting president Al Froderberg at the meeting at EverettCommunity College. After consulting health associations, the Safety Committee, which prepared theAIDS policy, found that because the AIDS virus cannot be contracted from casual contact, victimssuffering from the disease should not be excluded from campus employment and activities. The policy states that victims infected with the deadly virus "do not represent a threat to the public health of thecampus community." The Safety Committee's policy on communicable diseases proposes thatWestern provide "accurate and objective educational information" on communicable diseases, aswell as clinical services and referrals. If Western's president approves these policies at anundesignated future date, the responsibility of implementing the policies will be assigned toWestern's vice presidents. In other trustee business, a report on a proposed one dollar contribution to the Student Loan Fund as part of students' total registration fee was also read to the board. Afterreviewing the current status of the Student Loan Fund, Vice President/Dean of Student Affairs SaundraTaylor and Associated Students President Dan Wood discovered that the fund is meeting its needsand does not require increased financing. The proposition was dismissed. Also on the agenda was a $39,000 land acquisition, which the board passed. The property, l o c a t e d at 25th and Bill McDonald Parkway, will be financed by funds appropriated for real estate purchase. The board approved theproposition that both the men's and women's tennis clubs be given varsity status on a two-year trialbasis. Funds for the teams will be extracted from the club sports budget. ^JS^Uo^tmonJon^Buyaprinterwit^ Sft1115!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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