C * SUB food costs rise by Kris Bradner feature editor Students ordering food in the SUB last week have been an­ noyed by long waits while their orders were being filled. Hun­ gry customers have been puz­ zled as cooks dole out exactly lour ounces of french fries, checking their accuracy down to the last fry with a scale. Upon ordering a sundae one student was amazed that every­ thing from the ice cream to the chocolate and nuts were carefully weighed. The cafeteria has other prob­ lems: Prices have gone up, hours are shorter and many burger items are not being offered yet. The SUB, like everyone else, has been effected by the drama­ tic 20 per cent increase in food prices and like many schools is suffering from a smaller enroll­ ment. | SUB Director, Don Wise said that the "entire SUB is opera­ ting on fewer dollars and the cafeteria cannot offer the same services it used to. We are trying to make it as good a service as possible." Last year the SUB food service lost money. This year it must be "run well enough so that it will be around next year," Dean Wise. HOW CAN I IMPRESS PEOPLE WITH THE NEED TO BE MORE CAREFUL WITH FIRE THJS5AR? 85 He added that "we are not ex­ pected to make money" and said that he would be happy if they broke even. This means that labor and food costs must be cut back. Hours must be cut to conserve on the labor force. If students wish to eat in a clean environ­ ment they will have to pick up after themselves, Dean Wise said, adding that it is expensive to hire people to bus the tables. As it is, the cafeteria will not be open on weekends and only from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. during week­ days. A careful eye must be kept on food prices and portions. It is difficult to say how high prices will go until the beef bid is in (the SUB is currently operating on last years beef). Many burger items are not being offered pending the bid, but Dean Wise said he hoped they could be offered next week. Portion control Is insured by having cooks carefully weigh servings which they will continue to do until they have an accurate idea of an "honest portion," said Dean Wise. In previous years ice cream cones were so large that the SUB lost up to 200 per cent and bags of french fries were so over­ stuffed "that they were spilling out all over the counter and grill" added cafeteria supervisor Nancy Hubbard. In spite of all these problems and conditions, Dean Wise said that "there is no question about surviving. We are going to make it because we are going to try very hard." And they are trying. The SUB supervisors Micky Thayer and Ms. Hubbard have come up with several special features that are good buys for students. Good breakfasts are available from 7:30 a.m. at very reasonable prices. For a quick lunch on the run the SUB has created the "brown bag special." Priced at 99 cents students receive a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, a balogna sandwich, cookies, an apple and half pint of milk carefully pack­ aged in a brown p&per bag. Stating that "canned soups taste like canned soups," Ms. Hubbard has added homemade soups and chili to the daily lunch menu. Ms. Thayer is working on a new selection of inexpensive sandwiches and salads. Students can look forward to. openface sandwiches and such sandwich concoctions as grilled balogna, tomato and lettuce, and cheese, dill pickle, tomato and lettuce. A hot entree will also be served daily. Prices compare favorably with other food business in the area and like a famous chain of burger stands, lunch may be bought for less than one dollar. Students may eat in either the regular cafeteria or in the special dining room, formerly Uncle Marsh's Place. Here diners will help themselves to the daily special pour their own soups and make their own salads in a quiet atmosphere. Inspite of the small budget the SUB this quarter is trying to "please students and give them fast service" concluded Ms. Thayer. It is one place that you can still get a 10 cent cup of coffee.

All Put » Thursday, Oct, 4y 1973 —CAMPUS CRIER—Psge 3 Natural childbirth classes planned by Smitty editor-in-chief Having babies may be a natural miracle that has been going on since the beginning of time, but some people believe that today's parents-to-be need all the help they can get. The result is a class in "prepared childbirth" being offered this quarter on campus through Yaki­ ma Valley College. Taught by Barbara Bledsoe and Dena Freeman, the 10-week course will offer two college credits and cover such topics as body-building and ' exercises, emotions during pregnancy, value systems, the actual deliv­ ery process and the role of the future father. It's good therapy for the husband to know what he can do to help, said Ms. Freeman, a registered nurse at the Kittitas Valley Hospital. She stressed the importance of building a strong father^baby relationship "to make the father more than just the checkbook." M£. Freeman is a strong advocate of the father's presence in the delivery room and added that until about three years ago this was not the case in Ellens- burg. According to her, «ne couple through sheer persistance were able to convince their doctor to allow the husband to be present in the delivery room. "He had to stand by the door, ready to leave the moment anything went wrong," said Ms. Freeman. But the birth went smoothly, she added, and soon the word spread that one doctor did allow men in the delivery room. In describing the course Ms. Freeman said that it basically tries to prepare couples for the total experience of giving birth and the months after. While she reported that unoffi­ cial records show that class graduates have had smoother births and required less medica­ tion, "in every class there is someone who has an experience totally different from our prepar­ ations." Persons interested in attend­ ing the classes should register at the Continuing Education Office in Peterson Hall. Cost for the course is $16, the first class is to be held tonight at 7 in Grupe Conference Center. Cathy Spada, chairpersons for the event, hope to coordinate it so that "a mixture of old and new activities will interest everyone" and "appease" those who are dubious about the value of homecoming. More activities are in the planning stage now in conjunc­ tion with the Alumni Associa­ tion, the Ellensburg Chamber of Commerce and the Residence Hall Council. Attention f !Record Buyers!

NBC This week the Political Affairs Commission and the League of Women Voters have sponsor­ ed a voter registration drive, the success of which will depend on Central students, their opinions and their roles in this small community. It may be merely an interesting fact to some that the college makes up approximately one half of the Ellensburg community and obviously could be the deciding force in local elections and city government proposals. But for others, this fact could be a call to action, especially in light of the fact that local elections will be held here, in addition to the monumental state issues to be decided next month. Initiative 282 will deal with the matter of legislative and judicial salaries and will decide whether the people shall have the power to reduce the paychecks of state officials. The infamous youth drinking law will be given over to the people for a decision, a decision which every voter under 21 with half a brain should want to take a part in. Locally, a long-standjng disagreement over a new well of enormous quantity and quality discovered on college property is still being fought overi and public pressure might decide the outcome. Decisions are the menu for the future, and if this campus considers itself anything more than a conglomeration of bookworms, jocks, drunks and paranoids, it should see the obligation it has to come out of its ivy-covered shell and become part of the real world. r Admission forced NATIONAL BANK OF COMMERCE MEMBER F.O.I.C. • ACCOUNTS INSURED TO S20.000 EACH DEPOSITOR. by Smitty editor-in-chief In a story this issue about the athletic admission charge at Central, Adrian "Bink" Beamer, the director of athletics, said the de­ partment was forced to charge admission because the ASC and the Joint Student Fees Committee (JSFC) had cut the athletic budget. Let's get the record straight on a few things. First, the way I see it, the Joint Student Fees merely recommended that the athletic depart­ ment be cut along with every other department. To refresh a few memories up there in Nichol­ son's land. James Brooks, college president, restored a $7000 cut for athletics two years ago that the JSFC had recommended. Another example: that same year it was dis­ covered that using state money to pay for pre­ season training of the football team was illegal. The ASG has no say whatsoever in the budgetary alotments of Joint Student Fees money. Further, after the college president is through going over the budget with Edward Harrington, vice-president for academic affairs, the recommendations must then be approved by the Board of Trustees before the loot-splitting is official. No dear friends and enemies, the students in the ASC office didn't do the jocks in. And neither did the Joint Student Fees Committee, made up of administrators, faculty and non-ASC connected students. If there is blame to lay on this mess, look to the athletic directors and personnel who have allowed unethical and outrageous practices to go on year after year. Look towards those responsible for money squandered on gifts to lettermen, over $4000 last year, resulting in Beamer and tennis coach Dean Nicholson having to come before the ASC to obtain money so they could send some outstanding tennis players to nationals. Picture if you will, those two athletic giants standing before the ASC legislature, lavishing praise on the tennis team and its chances in the upcoming nationals. While in some dark corner of the pavilion, the girl's athletic department is struggling to put on a poor excuse for a women's track team not because the talent isn't there, but because they don't have the money to buy new equipment or send their teams to many competitions. While the men have been getting all the glory, the women have been paying their own way to competitions and just managing to make ends meet. And so now in the name of community spirit, high school students are being allowed to get into games for the same price as college students. The hell it is. It really called the heck with our students, we need more money. It s a shame that things have come to this, because they could have been prevented a long time ago. For years now, the ASC has been suggesting that the athletic department charge a small admission price, to games and I don't think students would have minded paying 25 or 50 cents to see a football or basketball game. But the words just seemed to tumble like so many gymnasts off the shoulders of those in charge and it was figured that somehow the department would be taken care of. Well, reality has hit and now it seems like the athletic department is overreacting and thus overcharging. Maybe when some of the injustices within that department are rectified, you guys might get some sympathy and support. But the only sympathy I have is for some of the athletes- the women because of the recognition and funds at have been denied them- the men because the unfair admission charge may keep students rom attending home games. And thats a shame because no matter how unfair the management of Nicholson Pavilion, we ve got one helluva fine assortment of talent on the field and in the gym and they might turn + Un- j losers when the final score is tallied. y

Desmond Jr. 19491 Box 1000 Steilacoom, WA 98388 Locals excluded To the editor: We represent a group of local off campus new students who feel discriminated against for the following reasons: 1) We are local students (who have lived in Ellensburg most of our lives.) 2) We live off campus and live at home. 3) We are new students. We are referring to the "New Student Week" that is supposed to allow us to become "familar with campus, faculty, college and fellow students." Sure. All through our elementary, junior high and high school education we have been looking forward to and preparing for college, only to find that Central was not prepared for us. We have lived in Ellensburg most of our lives. We have grown up around the college, and we and our parents, as well as the community support all Cen­ tral activities. But in return for this we have received nothing. And yet we pay the same tuition as those who live in dorms. We have tried to participate in the "New Student Week" activi­ ties but found that for the lack of a dorm name and meal card we were excluded. However, we received in our mail pamphlets and newspaper inserts listing the scheduled activities for the week with paragraphs encouraging "student" participation. Nowhere did the college state the tug of war was for dorms only. It states "AH College" tug of war. Nowhere did it state you had to have a meal card for the, western dinner at the rodeo grounds. Where do off campus students go to listen to academic adminis­ trative speakers who are sche­ duled for the dorms? How can we be proud to be a part of Central when in the eyes of other people we aren't? You must include and involve off campus students from Ellens­ burg or you will continue to lose interest from the community and local students. We no longer want to feel or be considered second class students. Action has been started in solving this problem with the help of Dean Wise but we encourage other off campus . students to get involved. Cyndi Cross Sharon Colwell new students New method tested by Civil Service Nationwide /field testing of a new method for evaluating fed­ eral white-collar jobs for pay de­ termination and other purposes will begin later this month, the Civil Service Commission' an­ nounced today. The new method, called the factor, ranking-bench­ mark approach, calls for break­ ing a job into factors then mea­ suring those factors against a previously approved benchmark position description. Point values are assigned to each factor, and then the points are totaled and converted to appropriate grades ranging from GS-1 through GS-15. Objectives of the field test are to help the commission deter­ mine whether the new approach will result in accurate and consistent grade levels for the positions tested whether it will be understood and accepted by program and personnel man­ agers, supervisors, employees and unions and whether it will be administratively feasible. Approximately 5000 jobs will be evaluated in tests at more than 100 field activities. The nationwide test is to be complet­ ed by mid-December. The commission emphasized that no changes in existing grades will be recommended as a result of the nationwide tests. Comparisons between existing grade levels and those indicated by the tests will be made only by the commission, and the jobs tested will not be identified with individual employes. Supervisors, employes and personnel specialists who take part in the field tests are being asked to complete questionnaires that were designed to elicit their views on the new approach to job evaluation. The results will be used by the commission in assessing the understandability, acceptance and feasibility of the new method. pi § m li ps B § DEAN'S T.V. & APPLIANCE WELCOMES YOUIJfe g§ Headquarters For.

Peart - 925-1828 Request denied To the editor: The following quote attributed to Dr. James Brooks, Central president, that Central must pro­ mote "cooperative work to better serve students" and the quote attributed to both he and Dr. Edward Harrington, Central's vice president, that the "college must learn to react faster to the need for change," has evident­ ly not yet penetrated the thick walls of the education depart­ ment. Perhaps the education depart­ ment is not aware of the growing number of returning students coming to college campuses and of the number of new programs that are being initiated to help those students in most other colleges. I am particularly concerned with the position of women with children. I am married and the mother of three children. I came to Central to work on a master's degree in history and to obtain certification as a high school teacher. I asked Dr. Robert Carlton of the education department if it would be possible for me to do my student teaching for two quarters on a half day basis rather than in one quarter on a full day basis. I was told no. No attempt was made to look up my files, to check on grade point, previous work record, etc. If this is an example of the college attempting to "serve students" then the college is in real trouble. Attempting to serve such students with programs innova­ tive enough to meet their needs could only help to alleviate the present "enrollment decline" which Dr. Brooks states is the real "problem" of the school. Certainly a student willing to enroll for an extra quarter can only be counted as an economic plus for the college. Karen A.

We're hoping this new arrangement will add a lot more convenience to your dining schedule. Like for instance, when you've only got a few minutes to r grab some chow between classes and you've got to walk from the Psych Building to Commons to eat and then walk back again. Or from Shaw-Smyser all the way to Holmes. Now you can catch a meal at whichever dining hall is the most convenient to your location or schedule. In addition, Commons will no longer serve the traditional full course prepared meals. Instead it will be more of a do-it- yourselfer's kitchen with a deluxe hot and cold sandwich and salad bar where you can put together a virtually unlimited number of combinations to suit yourself. On weekends Commons will host elegant buffets so you can put together whatever kind of meal you want. And there will be special dinners served at both dining halls like the 'Wild Boar Dinner.' We've made these changes for some very good reasons. We hope the new arrangement at Commons will make it easier for you to get a good meal when you're really in a hurry or when you just don't feel like eating a full meal. Or for when you just want to get together with friends from upper or lower campus for any meal. And with the high cost of food, we have to watch our budget. We don't think you'd want us lower the quality or quantity of your food so we could keep both dining halls fully staffed. ^.

The show is called "A Period of, Exploration and Experimen­ tation." It represents a group of artists of the U.S. who began a major art movement in the Bay area from 1947 through 1950. Dr. Stillman was reared in Southern California where he developed an early interest in photography and art which brought him national recognition when he published at-the age of 12. Since then he has received such awards as the Fletcher Award, the Anne Bremer Painting Award and the Bender Grant. He has taught and shown throughout the Americas.. One of his many distinctions was his appointment in 1964 as Communications Media Officer to Bolivia which is the largest audio visual and motion picture center in Latin America. , As a result of his Bay area showing a painting of his was purchased for the Oakland Museum's permanent collection. The painting, "Untitled, 1948, Oil on Canvas," was the third sold to permanent collections in the last year by Dr. Stillman. The other two were recent works and were sold to the High Museum in Atlanta and the Columbus Museum of Georgia. Music thesis direction A musical production of "The Entertainer" will be staged . tonight and tomorrow at 8:30 p.m. in McConnell Auditorium. The play is under the direction of graduate student Donald Reich. Contemporary art showing "American Art: Third Quarter Century," an exhibition of 74 modern masterworks is currently on view at the Seattle Art Museum Pavilion at the Seattle Center. The exhibition, sponsored by the Contemporary Art Council in honor of Dr. Richard E. Fuller and the 40th Anniversary of the Seattle Art Museum, is the most important showing of recent American art to reach the Northwest since the World's Fair in 1962. The 74 artists represented demonstrate the full range of post-World War II art from Abstract Expressionism through such innovative phases as Pop, Op, minimal, conceptual and Neo-Realist art. Painting, sculpture and constructions in all media are featured. An outstanding catalogue containing detailed comment on the individual artists and their works shown is the recent publication, under the same name as the exhibition, American Art: Third Quarter Century. The catalogue written by Dr. Jan van der Marck of the University of Washington, who also organized the show, includes a complete bibliography and biographical treatment of each of the artists. It constitutes a valuable and major new addition to the art-viewer's library.

E-BURG by Kris Bradner feature editor In the past freshmen and. transfer students attending Central for the first quarter could expect some kind of orientation-initiation more commonly known as hazing. New students were the recipients of practical jokes and tricks fre­ quently humiliating and occasion­ ally painful. Recently Central has done away with this type of ,harass­ ment. Under the title "Student Week," freshmen this year were introduced to the college" with little or no initiation. Kamola Hall, a women's dorm, stuck to their traditions while welcoming students. Dorm offi­ cers taught girls their dorm song and various humorous melodies to be sung while marching through men's dorms or touring the campus. Nancy Mcollum, dorm presi­ dent, said the first night all the girls had to be in bed by 10:30 p.m. with lights out. About 20 minutes later we woke them up and went on a walk to upper campus and into a couple of men's dorms. The girls were all wearing ""purity feathers" which they had to retain in spite of all the n? m quite willing to abscond with them. Ms. Mcollum added that there was a tea for parents, dorm meetings and skits to complete the week. Sue Lombard kept a few tradi­ tions adorning all the girls in garters in conspicuous places. Dorm manager Rich Rice, said that they did not hold initiation ceremonies, but were orientating the girls within the dorm. He said that they participated in the tug-of-war and volleyball tourna­ ment. Rice said that some initiations were good because they were aimed at "giving frosh a feeling of accomplishment of being brought into the group." When he came to Central in the 60's hazing was in full swing. Male students could expect to partake of the "happy apple," a raw onion on a string worn around the neck. Then there was the "kangaroo court," a campus march of male freshmen dressed only in their skivvies. Some events were quite cruel. One male dorm awarded a prize to the guy who could pick out the ugliest girl and escort her to dinner. Other events were physically exhausting. One co-ed remem­ bers an exchange where ker partner was asked what color her shoe laces were. He said white, they were orange and he had to do 50 push-ups. Rice said that in the dorm he lived in then, the upperclassmen shut all the shades and had the guys strip down to nothing or next to nothing. They were blind­ folded and told that they were going to sit on something quite warm." What they sat on was a block of ice. The extreme cold naturally made them think it was scalding hot. In his dorm incorrect respon­ ses were greeted with the command "tilt your head back and have an egg!" Another good trick was to sur­ reptitiously slip a pill into food that would turn their urine blue, green or bright orange. This type of initiation is no longer allowed by the adminis­ tration. However Beck Hall, a men's dorm, got in a few old tricks this year before they were stopped. One frosh said he had to eat 14 "happy apples'' Some dorm members had to stand at attention for one hour. The upper-classmen reportedly'start­ ed a collection for the least attractive girl in a near-by dorm. The majority of dorms, like Quigley and Meisner, partici­ pated in the tug-of-war and the volleyball tournament but re­ stricted orientation to instruc­ tional dorm meetings and class advisement. Most dorm managers seem to agree with Rice that "people are more independent today and ready to come into a dorm." Be­ cause they are more prepared to attend college, most frosh do not need or want forced social contact and prefer to meet other people on their own. .

Open to all students the event will run from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. with competition in steer riding, wild cow milking, calf- dressing, cow riding and a greased-pig chase. A 50 cent fee per person, per entry is required. Those interest­ ed may sign up in the ASC office located in the SUB where they will also be required to sign a liability form. Spectators are charged no admission and will be awarded with a lot of free laughs. Winners will be rewarded with trophies (and the mandatory souvenir, black and blue marks). The animals for the steer riding competition are small and it is usually a female event. For calf-dressing the women team-up and clothe the calfs hind legs with a pair of pants. Cow riding and wild cow milking (requiring a team effort) are events usually done by the men. "The Student Rodeo is one of the more popular events of the week. It is a lot of fun for partici­ pants and spectators both," said Mike Taylor, chairman of new student week. It is sponsored by RHC and ASC, but-would not take place without the Kittitas County Calf-Roper's, the organi­ zation which supplies all the animals and help. ARCTIC CIRCLE'S -THURS.-FRI.

Co-rec budget cut Thursday, Oct. 4, 1973—CAMPUS CRIER—Page 9 Mike McLeod, the new direc vtor of recreation at Central, is ^ facing a challenge this year of trying to operate a co-rec pro­ gram on a budget that has been cut 43 per cent from last year. His department must operate on a budget of $16,000. McLeod is cautiously optimis­ tic that the program can operate to the satisfaction of most students. "We won't be able to subsidize programs as in the & Mike McCleod past, but if we can get some help from student and faculty volun­ teers we can have a good overall program," he said. McLeod graduated in recrea­ tion from Central in the spring of 1972. Since then he has been working on his masters and plans to take his oral examinations in November. In 1971 he created the Tent 'n Tube Rental Shop. While study­ ing for his MA degree he worked in an internship program with Don Wise, associate dean of student union and activities, on student union management. Concerning his new position, McLeod said, "I'm happy to be connected with Central, to live in Ellensburg and to be close to the Yakima River." McLeod has been an avid fan of river floating and has produced a pamphlet of rules of safe floating. The new director plans to operate the co-rec program at Nicholson Pavilion for under $5000 for the next three quar­ ters. The co-rec hours at the pavilion have been reduced be­ cause of funding cutbacks. There will be four paid stu­ dents operating the co-rec pro- gram at the pavilion. One of the members of this staff will be a graduate assistant who will act as supervisor. This also satisfies the liability requirements that call for a faculty or staff member to be present during operating hours. Also on the staff will be two lifeguards and one student to check out equipment. McLeod emphasized the fact that volunteers, especially rec­ reation majors, could possibly get college credits for helping in the co-rec program. Along with his duties asDirec- tor of Recreation, McLeod will be teaching six hours of recreation classes. He will instruct Recre­ ation Leadership and Recreation and Leisure Education. Concerning the reduction of co-rec hours at the pavilion, McLeod said, "Rather than being able to go there anytime and use the facilities, the students will have to plan their schedule for the open hours." If enough faculty members and students volunteer to help in the co-rec program the hours will be expanded, he stated. Other areas in McLeod's de­ partment are the Rental Shop and the Games Room. McLeod said he was forced to raise the rates for items in the Rental Shop. The rates will be the same as they were when the shop first opened. He said the Rental Shop must be self-supporting. The hours for (he Games Room are also going to be reduced, but the exact hours have not been determined yet. One of McLeod's goals this year is to provide more activities for married students and their children. He stated that, "if a group wants to get some kind of activity organized, I will help them in any way that I can." He went on to say that if anyone is interested in a particular activ­ ity/club or would like to start a new club, they are welcome to come to him for assistance. If the members of the college community respond to McLeod's request for volunteers, the rec­ reation department might be able to operate as it did last year.. This is what Mike McLeod is hoping will happen. Voters! The voter registration drive conducted this week is drawing to a close tomorrow. Students planning to register are reminded that Saturday is the last day a person may register if he or she wishes to vote in the upcoming elections. At the registration table in the SUB Pit area, the voter regis­ trars are also able to transfer a persons voting district to any city in the state. Persons who registered last year and have since moved some­ where else within Ellensburg should contact the voter regis­ trars to transfer to another voting precinct if necessary. Dorm suit awaits rule compliance A former Central co-ed whose legal suit against the college housing policy is still pending, has re-enrolled after a year of non-attendance. Now she must decide again whether or not to live in a dormitory in compliance with rules which she claims are illegal. Judy Talman, a 19-year-old from Orcas Island, was prohibit­ ed from re-enrolling into the college last September when she refused to live in a dormitory according to college housing rules. She had asked for the ex­ ception because her doctor had deemed dormitory life detrimen­ tal to her health. Last week she received a letter from Wendell Hill, director of auxilary services, informing her that she would be permitted to register for classes this quarter. Earlier in the week she had been told that unless she dis­ missed the suit and agreed to live in a dormitory she could not enroll at Central Her suit charges that the college housing policy is in violation of her rights under the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution and discriminates on the basis of age, academic achievement and choice of living arrangements. Hill said that this year Ms. Talman is being given the opportunity to re-enroll in spite of the pending suit. She can also request to be allowed to live off campus. Her request, he added, would be examined "with the same open-mindedness and considera­ tion as would a similar request from any other student." Ms. Talman said that if she accepts the offer and is granted the right to live off campus the decision would nullify the pend­ ing suit. 11 IN SEAM Ellensburg Floral Shop SAV IT ALL it Flowers For All Occasions 307 N.

Page 12 -CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, Oct. 4, 1973 Africa changing but still dark by Karla Stakston It had been named the Dark Continent for it was a land shrouded in mystery. These words evoked the calli of throb­ bing village drums, the eerie trumpeting of vast herds of elephants, the myriad sounds of exotic jungle animals, the eternal lure of instant riches in gold and diamonds, anguished cries of natives shackled for lives of slavery and the grandeur of pyramid studded ancient Egypt. Today's Africa contains these wonders still, but she is a land changing quickly. One of Cen­ tral's educators, Dr. John Wesley Crum, his wife Jennie, and fourteen graduate students from our state visited Africa this summer. They embarked upon their African safari tour June 15 and returned after a month of fascinating experiences July 17. Most interesting adventure Dr. Crum, who has also visited the Orient and Europe, recalled his trip as being "the most interesting, varied, stimulating travel adventure I ever had." The group began their tour in the Republic of South Africa. They stayed in Johannesburg, and their first afternoon were introduced to the city, viewing the line of the fabulous gold reef and driving through beautiful residential suburbs. When the tour bus stopped at the edge of Soweto township, members became acutely aware of the official policy the Republic practices of racial segregation, termed apartheid. It was illegal for any Caucasian to enter Soweto, for it is the vast complex housing all the black citizens of the city. The Afrikaan (language which is a mixture of tribal and Dutch) word for all black peoples is Bantu. Bantus living in the Republic's cities are restricted to their own living section. Within their townships they have their own schools and hospitals staffed by their own people. Those peoples not pure black are considered colored people. Colored people are under the same regulations as the Bantu, but unofficially have a higher status than the Bantu and may be placed in more highly skilled jobs. The last group includes Indians, Orientals and all others who are not Caucasian. They are parallel to the colored people in status. The only exception to this classification system are the Japanese people. Mainly because of the financial status in the country, the Japanese are legally considered "honorary whites." This entitles them to associate socially and professionally with the white community. The non-Caucasian segment of South Africa is required to pay taxes, but they are much lower than the taxes of the Caucasians. Government housing, education, bus transportation, jobs and clothing (if the job requires a certain style) are provided for the non-Caucasians. The apartheid system is en­ gineered in such a way that contact with people of another PIZZA IfUT TUESDAY NIGHT IS SMORG NIGHT AT THE PIZZA HUT ALL YOU CAH EAT 49 $ 1 5 pm - 8 pm PHONE 925-5001 HOME AND DORM DELIVERY SIND1T-THURSD1T 5 TO 1 FRIDtV-StTURDlt 5 to 1 race is not usual. In fact, Dr. Crum said that the only Blacks he saw were porters. Tourist visas The Republic of South Africa is sensitive, as are all governments, to any adverse criticism they might receive and consequently any association with foreign media must be stated on the tourist's visa. In Kruger National Park and Eastern Transvaal, a province of the country, the tour bus took the members of the safari through the hiveld, an area somewhat like Eastern Washing­ ton, and down into the pretty subtropical lowveld, an area like Southern California. They spent three days in the park observing the beautiful wild scenery and the thousands of free-roaming impala, giraffe, warthog, monkey, antelope, zebra, wildebeest and other animals populating the 8 000 acre preserve. Original dances Rhodesia was next, where they stayed in a lodge adjoining the majestic Victoria Falls. That evening the group was driven through typical bush country to the Shangaan Musha village. After treating their guests to a barfreque dinner, the villagers performed a number of sponta­ neous original dances for the tourists. While traveling through the countryside, the group met with some members of the Masai tribe. This tribe has maintained many of their old ways, despite government attempts to into- duce them to an industrial civilization. The Masai seen were wearing robes of predominantly red, and had adorned their hair with red clay and butter. The loose robe, open at the sides, reached the ankle in front, but stopped at the V* 38 THE I Kegs To Go $1850 Halloween m Party Coming Soon! Get Your Costume Ready! (Includes 50 Cups) waist in the back. Nomads and cattle breeders, the Masai are famous for their shepherding of lion herds and their custom of drinking cow's blood mixed with milk. Ababe Kasaye While in Addis Ababa, the group was invited for dinner to the home of Ababe Kasaye, who is a student at Central. Ababe was attending summer school, but his father, a former imperial bodyguard for Hailie Selassie, and sister entertained the travelers. They headed on by plane to a few primitive villages, Bar Dar, Gondar and Asmara. While in Asmara, the site of a U.S. space-tracking station, the tourists viewed a native home. The adobe thatched roof home consisted of a kitchen, a store­ room and a living room. Most of the furniture was made of sunbaked mud and dung. The children slept in the kitchen, and the parents shared the living room with their animals. In the last country the group visited they witnessed the con­ trast of the ancient beside the modern. They stopped at Khar­ toum in the Sudan, flew over the Sahara Desert, viewed the merging of the Blue Nile and he White Nile at Lake Nassar, and followed the river to its mouth, eventually landing in Cairo. They took in the major sights of ancient Egypt—the Valley of the Pharoahs, home of the famous Giza Pyramids and the Cheops Pyramid. Alert military Besides touring historic churches and museums in Cairo, the group was exposed' to the feeling of being in a city on an alert military status. The streets were filled with soldiers and military vehicles and the airport was surrounded by trenches filled with military personnel. All members of the safari adventure experienced a cultural shock while in Africa. Besides being a place of completely different customs, sounds, sights,^ smells and experiences, there is the extreme difference within the continent itself. Dr. Crum concluded that although Africa is not the mystery it was once, it has lost none of its exotic appeal to those with a sense of adventure.

Well, most of a six-pack, about two gallons of gas, a hamburger, a large tube of toothpaste and now, for the first time ever, admission for a Central student to a Central ball game. The move by the athletic department to charge admission to sports events this year is one that will affect a large number of students on campus and should be clarified for those people. Adrian Beamer, athletic director, explained, "The way this move came into being was, of course, due to a largie cut in o.ur budget. Last spring when we were involved in the budgeting process the ASC and the Joint Student Fees Committee cut us back quite severely. "They said we could generate additional monies by charging students, a move which we were against from the start. We requested a budget which we felt we could work with, and it was cut quite severely. We were forced into this move to aid in financ­ ing our program," he continued. According to Beamer, the figure of one dollar per game was not set arbitrarily and without some thought, but was the result of an attempt to reach a fair amount for both the students and the program and make the rate as low as was possible and yet practical." Beamer also noted that "the pass which the student can purchase for $3.50 allows them to get into the fall quarter contests for half price. . The winter quarter pass will be sold for $6 and will allow the student to attend 16 events. At present there are no plans.to charge admission for any of the spring quarter events. Another aspect which has. been mentioned is the fact that high school students possessing a valid ASC card are allowed into the games for the same price as that paid by a student without the season pass. "We decided to charge the one dollar admission price for high school students in an attempt to encourage more of them to attend our ball games and provide a bit more support, both financially and spiritually, for our athletic programs." Beamer stated, "As to continuing this policy of charging admis­ sion for games, we have no real idea yet. Of course, it will be based upon enrollment, attendance and other variables. We do, however, anticipate a slight decrease in attendance this year due to the initiation of the admission charge." "We have always had the philosophy that the athletic program is here for the enjoyment of the students and we were against the initiation of an admission charge from the start," the athletic director concluded, "however, we were faced with a financial problem and we had to do something. Unfortunately, the initiation of an admission charge to Central ball games for Central students was that something."

'Cats quarterback C&en earns additional honors s$SwW5 John Coen, Central's Ail- American quarterback, has garn­ ered three more honors to add to his already long list of accolades. Coen was picked as Player of the Week by the Evergreen Confer­ ence and the Northwest Sports- writers Association and was selected as Wildcat of the Week for the week of September 23. Paul Madison, publicity direc­ tor for EvCo, announced the choice of Coen as the EvCo Player of the Week on the offense. Coen shared the honor with Jay Milton, a defensive halfback from Oregon College of Education, who was selected as Player of the Week for the defense. Milton intercepted three passes in OCE's 19-8 victory over Eastern. He also returned his first interception 35 yards to set up the Wolves first score. Central head football coach Tom Parry announced the Wild­ cat of the Week honor and expressed ~ his pleasure with Coen's performance against Lewis and Clark.

"The meet is an opener and we will get a good look at the cross­ country team Saturday," he said. "We definitely expect to be in the thick of things. The squad is training very hard and has a good positive mental attitude." According to Lionvale, Central and the squad from Oregon College of Education will be the two top contenders in the college division of the meet. In the community college division the freshmen and sophomore team from Central go in as favorites. Oregon State University, a Pac-8 school, has the team which is picked as the favorite in the university division. The following personnel werte listed by Lionvale as probably making up his harrier squad for the inaugural meet: juniors Bob Johnson, Paul Slichter, Jim Christenson and Kevin Taylor sophomores Claton Belmont, Gary Cinotto, Stan Clayton and Ken Turner and freshmen Reese Colbo, Louis Boudreaux, Mike Christensen, Bill Ardissono Mike Anderberg, Mike Wold, Rich Johnson and Gary Zasi- moulch. The meet will be held at a location about 11 miles out of Ellensburg, and there will be a car caravan leaving Nicholson Pavilion at 11:00 for the meet, said Lionvale. He advised people interested in attending to "dress warmly and wear old clothes." Field. Coen generated a heart- stoppingf fourth quarter come­ back to stop the Lewis and Clark Pioneers of Portland 14-9. With less than 10 minutes remaining on the clock Coen led the Wildcats down field and scored the first touchdown with a seven yard strike to Bob Harvey. That drive was highlighted by two fourth downs and long yardage situations where Coen hit his receivers for the first down. The final Wildcat drive was climaxed when the All-American plunged over for the score from four yards out. A 67 yard toss to Mike Halpin set up the score. The stocky Hawaiian complet­ ed 21 of 33 passes for 228 total yards in the air, and helped out the 'Cats sputtering ground attack with over 30 yards rushing to his credit. Coen failed to see any action in the 17-7 win over the Red Raiders of Southern Oregon College last Saturday due to injuries suffered in the game against Lewis and Clark. He is expected to start against the team from Eastern Oregon college in the EvCo game Satur­ day. Head coach Tom Parry stated that he was "really pleased with Coen's selection. I feel the honors are well deserved." Oct. 6 CWSC Invitational at Ellensburg Oct. 13 Seattle Pacific Invitational.

The concrete work has been completed and is nearly dry, he stated, and the interior has been painted in bright pastel colors which have brightened up the in­ terior of the place considerably. The next and final phase of the renovation will be the application of a three eights inch layer of pro-turf over the prepared con­ crete floor. According to Sor­ enson, the floor will be com­ pletely smooth and will not be "grass-like" as is the popular astro-turf. The pro-turf floor will replace the dirt floor which was in the facility previously. Basketball, tennis, volleyball, and other sports are listed for the fieldhouse. A weight-lifting area is also planned. "There will be a priority set for the usage of the building," stated Sorenson,"and activities that can be scheduled will be determined by the P.E. department here at Central." This facility will be primarily a physical education area and its control will be under the P.E. department according to the facilities committee chariman. "Care and maintenance of the new facility will be an expensive and time-consuming operation, and in view of that its care and usage will be closely supervised," Sorenson concluded.

Fall '73 m Catalog of Values ELLENSBURG 408 N. Pearl 962-2830 PULLMAN S. 805 Grand Ave. 567-5922 WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT MUSIC SYSTEMS? All of us at STEREOGRAFT are into music, and we've been told we know what we're doing. We have tested literally hundreds of com­ ponents from well over fifty manufacturers, and have picked up valu­ able knowledge and experience that enable us to put together well matched, high performing, sdul satisfying music systems at moder­ ate cost. WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM A STEREOCRAFT SYSTEM? Honest value! An overworked phrase, to be sure, but true, and we can tell you why. The large manufacturers — Pioneer, Sansui, Kenwood, Marantz, Sherwood, Sony, JVC, etc. — all produce good sounding receivers. Among models of comparable power, we venture that you couldn't tell any difference in sound through a given speaker. (There is one excep­ tion: the Harman Kardon receivers, in models from the 630 upward, sound better than other receivers, due to their advanced design.) Thus, in choosing receivers for our lower-priced systems, where fea­ tures, warranties, etc. are much the same, we've been guided primarily by dollars per watt i.e., we pick the most powerful receiver or amplifier for the money. Since most modestly powered receivers do sound the same, the difference between a fair and a great system obviously depends on the speakers. We firmly believe we have chosen the best speakers avail­ able at various prices. The Advents, included in many of our systems, are a case in point. Time and time again they have been compared favorably with speakers costing over twice as much. (They are, for example, audibly superior to the AR3a's at over V-h times the Advent price.) Very few dealers are allowed to sell Advent, though almost all would like to. The Advent profit structure is not as advantageous to the dealer as other speaker makers, bat they offer unmatched value to the customer. We could substitute other name-brand "promo" speakers (with fictitiously high list prices and extremely low costs to dealers), but that would be a bad trip. For example, we could use the Altec 886A speakers in our Advent systems and make the retail prices of the systems increase by $130, thus making the discounts to you appear even more impressive—and our cost would drop by $16! However, the Altecs don't hold a candle to the Advents, which go a full octave lower in the bass and are much better balanced. Another example is the Electro Voice ETR series (14,16,18). The ' 'top of the line'' ETR 18' 'lists'' for $149.95. The Larger Advent lists for $105, but costs us 67% more than the ETR 18! It's obvious that we could show you a much more impressive' 'savings'' using the former. Just as obvious, however, is the superior sound quality of the Advents. A final example is provided by speakers such as the KLH 30. This is not a regular KLH speaker—as a matter of fact, it comes as part of a KLH Compact. Yet some outfits will claim they are a "favorite among the critics." Balderdash! No critic has ever even heard of the KLH 30!! Do you begin to see our reasoning? You don't listen to inflated markups and phoney discounts—you listen to speakers! We genuinely believe our systems offer the best sound for the money. Anywhere. Read on!

SYSTEMS CAREFULLY MATCHED FOR BALANCED PERFORMANCE. THE MOST SOUND FOR YOUR MONEY! SYSTEM 1: THE SMALL-ROOM SPECIAL *179°° This is the highest quality low-priced system anywhere, perfect for a small room or a small budget. Indeed, some people say you can't get a quality component system for this price, but they're all wet! For $1 79, the price of this system, you could buy an appliance-store compact with' 'component styling,' a built-in clock, snorkel, hibachi, backscratcher and vacuum. Or. .. you could buy our system. The difference is that with ours you'll get no snorkel, etc. and no problems. The Superscope A-235 amplifier, with a FULL THREE YEAR PARTS AND LABOR WARRANTY, has plenty of inputs and outputs for adding an AM/FM tuner or tape deck later (but no hibachi input!). There is ample power for the STEREOCRAFT II speakers, built for us by a California firm which supplies many so-called "name" speakers. They incorporate heavy-duty drivers in an attractive walnut-look vinyl cabinet. The turntable we've picked is the Garrard 42M-S, introduced only a year ago, but already one of the best-selling turntables of all time. It includes a high quality Shure elliptical diamond magnetic cartridge and we include a base and dust cover. The 42M-S is considerably better than, the BSR 31 OX, a popular choice for "economy" systems. This system won't give you the highest highs and lowest lows, but is is nicely balanced, and that, friends, is important. Compare these warranties and features with any appliance-store compact, but above all, COMPARE THE SOUND!! SYSTEM 2: THE STARTER SYSTEM *249« Our Starter System, priced only $70 above the Small Room Special, adds an AM-FM tuner section, and a more powerful amplifier to the STEREOCRAFT II speakers and hard-to-beat Garrard 42M-S turntable. The Sansui 210 AM-FM receiver is a genuine bargain at its separate price of $149.95. It delivers 20 watts RMS* of power and has Inputs for a tape deck plus an extra tape player. The speakers are STEREOCRAFT ll's, custom-made to our own exacting specifications. They are by no means "economy" speakers. Not only are they efficient, but they'll also handle lots of power. We've yet tp hear anything better in the under $100 a pair class. The 8 inch acoustic-suspension woofer and 3 inch tweeter are housed in an attractive walnut-look vinyl cabinet. Because of the acoustic suspension design, the bass is deep and clear. (Indeed, they compare quite favorably with KLH 17's at $160 a pair.) The complete system lists for $340.75, but STEREOCRAFT'S buying power enables us to bring it all to you for $249.95. (Two yen revaluations have increased the Sansui's price by $20, but we've held our price the same for two years. That makes this system a better value than ever!) *RMS is the most demanding and least flashy way of rating amplifier wattage. For comparative purposes, 300 watts of meaningless "peak music power" would be at best 8 or 9 watts RMS. We suggest that if a manufacturer or dealer doesn't quote RMS ratings, you should avoid his products like plague.

SYSTEM 4: HEAR EVERY NOTE If you think we're enthusiastic about the preceding systems, you're right! Each is an out­ standing buy, the best performance available at its price. However, the performance of each is slightly compromised in order to meet its price. Our fourth system, however, sacrifices not a shred of outstanding performance. Just five years ago, it would have cost at least $200 more to even approach the performance of this system: that's the kind of "inflation" we like! This superb performance is made possible by the Smaller Advent Loudspeaker, of which Stereo Review said, "Any preconceived ideas you may have had about the limitations of sub-compact speaker systems will, we think, be shattered ... in respect to balance, low-frequency solidarity, clarity and definition, the Smaller Advents ranked with some of the best." Most inexpensive speakers cannot produce the lowest octaves of music, the lowest strings of a double bass or the pedal tones of a pipe organ. The Smaller Advent can. In fact, in most rooms and at all but the most ear-shattering levels, the Smaller Advent Loudspeaker is the equal of any speaker system available. It can reproduce every note ever recorded, no matter how low or high—a remarkable achievement at any price, and astounding in a speaker priced so low! The unique value of the Smaller Advents is made even better by Stereocraft's lifetime warranty*. To adequately drive the Smaller Advents requires a receiver or amplifier having out­ standing performance over the whole audio range, especially at the low end. The Sherwood S7100A is just such a receiver. It supplies the Smaller Advents with a solid 54 watts RMS, and has direct-coupled circuitry for an outstanding power bandwidth of 15 to 50,000 Hz. Distor­ tion at fairly loud listening levels is an inaudible 0.2%. The FM section is so good that it would justify the entire price of the receiver. With ceramic I.F. filters and FET's, the sensitivity is a remarkable 1.9. Front-panel switching lets you drive two sets of speakers, separately or together. Besides the usual tape monitor facility, Sherwood offers a unique front-panel tape jack for simultaneous recording on two recorders or dubbing from one recorder to the other. No wonder the 7100A was rated a "best buy" by the leading consumer testing magazine! With such an auspicious speaker-receiver combination, you need a turntable which adds no annoying low-frequency rumble. We suggest the Dual 1214 with the ADC 250XE ellip­ tical dtamond cartridge. Tracking at only 1 'A grams, this combination will treat your records as gently as you should your girl you'll get the same undistorted sound on the fiftieth play that you did on the first. The total retail price of these components is $547.90, a bargain for this kind of perform­ ance. However, the STEREOCRAFT price is only $454.50, presenting you with unexcelled value. This system will satisfy the music lover who is new to components, as well as the con­ firmed audiophile. *For as long as you own your Advent loudspeakers, Stereocraft will replace, with no charge for parts or labor, any defective Advent Speaker. ADVENT Dual '454™ SYSTEM 5: MARANTZ MAGIC /,, -' - r- • ' z'vz " £ 1 ' / • ^7 "ft •* / ''*• , ... n cx V\fe sound better 03 The Marantz rrame has always stood for quality, reliability and performance. The Marantz units in our $529 system continue this fine tradition. The Marantz 2220 AM/FM receiver has an amplifier section conservatively rated at 20 watts RMS per channel, both channels operating, from 40 to 20,000 Hz. There are inputs and outputs for every conceivable source, and either or both of two separate pairs of speakers can be selected. The 2220 has the same velvet smooth flywheel tuning and fine workmanship as the most expensive Marantz receivers. Attention to detail is evident through. The Marantz Imperial V loudspeakers are fitting companions to the 2220. They have silky smooth, extended response, and are so efficient they can be driven to ear-shattering levels by the 2220. A leading consumer magazine recently rated the Imperial V among the very top group with respect to accuracy of reproduction. We would tend to agree. The perfect changer to mate with the Marantz combination is the new PE 3012. Its advanced features are truly amazing in a unit of its relatively low price. Anti-skating, variable pitch control, and damped cueing are sometimes found in units of this price, but PE's exclusive • . . . "fail-safe" function, which prevents stylus descent to an empty platter, sets the 3012 apart from all its competitors. Fitted with one of our favorite cartridges, the ADC 250XE, the PE will track cleanly and efficiently at a record-preserving Vh. grams. The total retail price of our "Marantz Magic" system is $639176 we sell the complete system for $529, a reasonable price for a firie system. •529 00
SYSTEM 6: THE SUPREME '599 00 Our Advent, Harman-Kardon, Pioneer, ADC system is unique among all possible stereo systems. It is a stereo radio-phonograph system that is the right, completely satisfying system for most people with a demanding interest in both music and sound—at a price far lower than such a system would have cost just a few Vears ago. An ambitious claim, to be sure, but one which, from experience, we are not afraid to make. Our $599 system will do the following for you: 1. It reproduces the entire frequency range of all music, without annoying coloration or distortion, at levels which will comfortably fill your listening room with sound. (Wagneriansand acid-rock freaks not excluded!) 2. It sounds convincing not only on the best recordings, but on the great majority of recordings and broadcasts of all kinds. 3. It has enough controls and features to satisfy your needs, without making you pay for unnecessary frills. (There's ample flexibility for adding such niceties as a tape deck, additional speakers, a quad­ raphonic adaptor, or even an FM Dolby unit.) 4. Its performance and durability are such that it's highly unlikely you'd want to change any of the components for a very long time. The Supreme System is built around the Advent Loudspeakers. Tliey are meant to be compared directly in every aspect of performance, including frequency response, to the most expensive and elabor­ ate speakers available, and they sound clearly and dramatically better than many far more expensive systems. They provide that final, lowest (and most satisfying) octave of bass offered by only a handful of the most expensive speakers—and by none anywhere near their price. The Harman-Kardon 630 twinpowered AM/FM stereo receiver is yet another example of the wonderful way your inflated dollar still buys much more real performance in hi fi equipment than ever before: well over 60 watts RMS, with less than 0.5 percent distortion, into 8 ohms, across the entire audio range. ("Staff", a West Coast underground newspaper, recently picked the Harman-Kardon 630 as far and away the best receiver in the $350 class, and they tested well over a dozen of the most popular brands.) One reason for the 630's audible superiority is twin power supplies. Not to be confused with dual power supplies, which are inferior and less expensive to produce, the twin powered Harman-Kardon has a separate power transformer for each channel, as well as separate power supplies. The Pioneer P112D manual turntable does exactly what a turntable is supposed to do—and does it well. It spins the records quietly at constant speed, and introduces absolutely no audible rumble, wow or flutter. The combination power switch and cueing level is smooth and foolproof. We equip the PL12D with the rugged, high performance ADC 250XE elliptical cartridge. The Pioneer-ADC combination will track all your records at a groove-saving 1 Vi grams. Individual rgflylar prices of these components total $728.90. STEREOCRAFT offers the complete system for only $599, with free local installation if you wish, and guaranteed for two years (except for the Advents they're guaranteed for as long as you own them!). Come in and hear what we think is the best value in home music systems available today. AMPLIFIER OPTION If you don't need or want an AM/FM tuner, then we highly recommend the Marantz 1060 amplifier, with an extremely conservative rating of 60 watts RMS over the entire 20-20,000 Hz range. (Tests show consistent actual performance of 80 watts!) The 1060 also has a useful midrange control. With the 1060 instead of the Harman-Kardon 630, the system price is $5 1 5. AUTOMATIC TURNTABLE OPTION If you'd rather stack your records, or play them singly with automatic shut-off, we recommend the Dual 1214 automatic turntable. For the 1214 with base, cover and the ADC instead of the Pioneer PL12D, add $25. £ mmmmm ADVENT CtO PIONEER- harman SYSTEM 7: THE OLYMPUS '795 00 jbrflllt 1 z-if O.IK&S Wo J? 1 INFINITY SYSTEMS. INC. ® KENWOOD a To audibly improve on the performance of our Supreme System, you have to spend almost $200 more. The extra cost, however, buys you several very tangible benefits, including a better tuning section and an upgraded turntable. The receiver we've selected is the Kenwood KR6200, a superb, high quality, high powered unit with all the features you'll ever need. Supplying 45 watts RMS per channel from 20 to 20,000 Hz, the KR6200 can accommodate two tape decks, and features a sophisticated tuning section with Kenwood's exclusive DSD for out­ standing stereo separation, a sensitivity of 1.7 microvolts and a capture ratio of 1.5 db. There is also a midrange tone control. The Philips GA212 with "electronic brain" offers more performance and fea­ tures at moderate cost than any other single-play table we know of. Because all switching functions (starts, stops and speed changes) are accomplished electroni­ cally, noise of any kind is kept to an absolute minimum. Constant speed is ensured by combining a D.C motor with a tacho generator which regulates itself with a mini computer. The slightest deviation in speed is corrected instantaneously. A light-tracking, highly compliant cartridge is a must with such an out­ standing turntable. The logical choice is the Shure M91ED. The Philips-Shure combination will track the most demanding discs at a record-saving one gram force. The virtues of a good turntable, cartridge and receiver would go unnoticed with any but the best speakers. The Infinity 1001's, though moderately priced, are out­ rageous performers. The transmission line enclosures and 12-inch woofers provide incredibly deep, taut and well-defined bass. We'll go so far as to say that the bass detail of the 1001 's is unrivalled by any speaker we've heard of at any price. (On most speakers, the lowest notes of a bass tend to sound like an elephant with gas. Not so with the 1001's—you can almost see and feel the plucking of the strings.) One reason for this is the absence of any crossover from the speaker system. Instead, e woo ©r ro so naturally and blends smoothly into the frequency range covered by the two tweeters, one direct-radiating and the other a rear-facing "ambient" tweeter. e 1001 s are covered by a unique, five-year warranty which is [anS —7 *° ' e new owner should you ever take leave off your senses and sell them! Retail prices of these audio delights total $917.40. The STEREOCRAFT system price is " *795 00 a savings of $123.40.
System 8: The Outlandish No "ultimate" system is possible without the ESS AMT 1 . Until ESS markets the full-range Heil speaker (at a considerably higher cost) the AMT 1 is the state of the art loudspeaker in every respect. When compared with any other speaker of any size or price, the AMT I's superiority, especially in the upper midrange and highs, is clearly evident. One of the beauties of the AMT 1 is that it can be driven well by as little as 30 watts RMS per channel. A superlative system, however, requires more than minimal power. The finest stereo receiver available in the under $500 category, without a doubt, is the new Tandberg TR 1020A. Of the original TR 1020, Audio Magazine said "Amplifier sound is superb at every listening level, but we were particularly impressed at how transparent and clean the sound seemed to be at very low, background listening levels. This, by the way, is a good way to test overall amplifier performance since it often shows up flaws that would be masked at higher listening levels ... If the Tandberg TR 1020 sold for around $600 we'd say it was competitive with other receivers in that price class and still has a few features going for it that other $600 units omit. . . . The xguys from Tandberg' have done it again." The 1020 A has all of the virtues of its distinguished predecessor its most significant improvements are in the tuner section (it's virtually impossible to improve the amplifier section!). The introduction of sophisticated phase-iock-loop multiplex circuitry is the most noteworthy. Tandberg's reputation for conservative specifications is well known, but it's hard to imagine how you could improve on these: capture ratio 0.9 db! FM distortion only 0.2% in mono or stereo! Selectivity 100 db! Sensitivity 1.5 microvolts! The 1020 A also has a new integrated IF amplifier with phase linear ceramic filters. The tuner alone justifies the price of the 1020A ($499.90), but you also get the truly complementary power amplifier which is itself a superb performer. It easily supplies 45 to 50 wafts RMS per channel over the critical 20 to 20,000 Hz range. Another useful feature, not to our knowledge found on any other receiver at any price, is a "preamp record" switch which allows you to record a signal after it has passed through the preamp. This allows the taping of a "corrected signal" thus the serious recordist can brighten, filter, boost, cut or otherwise rebalance an old recording for transcription onto tape. The magnificent Thorens TD-160C is the logical turntable choice. This Swiss- made beauty (second only to Ursula Andress!) is fitted with the TP-16 tonearm— the same arm used on the TD 125AB Mark II at $400. Extremely gentle cueing, gimbal suspension, and magnetic anti-skating are just a few attributes of this delicate but durable arm. The belt-driven TD 160C has inaudible rumble, wow and flutter. When coupled with the superlative ADC XLM cartridge, tracking at Vz gram is a snap.

Here's what they said: "The Harmon- Kardon 630 was our pick of the litter. Simply because it sounded the best. Remember, music is what hi-fi is all about. No sound, no good. The Harman Kardon is magnificent and at only $359.95, almost an unbelievable buy. The sound is so clean and well defined that when it's used with good speakers and a good phono cartridge, the violin section of an orchestra is revealed as, 30 separate instruments instead of that one large string mass so many receivers produce. The bass was clean, full and tight. Organ music was exciting even to non-organ lovers. The kettledrums used in DGG's recording of Beethoven's Sixth Symphony by Maestro Von Kaajan resembled the thunder of a good spring storm. The high end was brilliant, diamond sharp, and exquisitely well defined, yet not a hint of harshness. A cymbal crash passed through this receiver spotlessly and the Moog was startling.

BE SURE TO HEAR ALL THE ADVENTS THE ADVE\T LOUDSPEAKER ADVENT Both the loudspeakers shown — the originial Advent Loudspeaker and the Smaller Advent Loud­ speaker — are intended to be compared in audible perform­ ance, including frequency band­ width, with the most elaborate and expensive speakers avail­ able. That may be difficult to accept, we realize, but it is true and verifiable in the listening. The original Advent Loudspeak­ er, which costs $105 to $120 depending on its cabinet finish, can withstand absolute, no-holds- barred comparison with any speaker of any price, and sounds obvious­ ly arid dramatically better than many far more expensive speakers. The Smaller Advent Loudspeaker ($72.50) sounds the same as the original, but will not play quite as loud as the* original in as big a living room. What They're Saying About the Advent Loudspeaker "The shape of the curve above 6 kHz corresponds almost exactly to the calibration curve of our microphone, which indicates that the true response of the speaker is virtually flat to well beyond 15 kHz. "The low-frequency performance of the speaker system is even more impressive than its high end. The flat, extended response to. below the lowest audible frequencies is genuine, not the result of added distortion products which can make an inferior speaker system seem better than it really is. ". .. It has a silky smooth, balanced sound with well-dispersed highs, and lows which can really be felt, rather than merely heard. We can't recall having heard another speaker in its price class that can match it." —ELECTRONICS WORLD (Julian Hirsch) ". . . The frequency response was flat, with only i 3 dB variations over the major portion of its range. What is more important is that the 45-degree off-axis response follows the on-axis response to a remarkable degree, denoting excellent high-frequency power response . . . "One could say that at twice the price the Advent speaker would be a good value, but at $120 it is a bargain." —AUDIO "After several weeks of listening (to the Advents) we still haven't found anything to complain about. We couldn't even find any sonic characteristics to hang adjectives on, in order to try to describe their sound. They were, in fact, the least- colored loudspeakers we have ever heard, and this includes the highest-priced systems currently available. "Probably for just that reason, the Advents proved eminently easy to live with, and sound equally comfortable and natural at low or room-filling listening levels. Dispersion was excellent and so, as a consequence, was stereo imaging. Driver blending, too, was excellent and speakers did an outstanding job of reproducing the front-to-back perspective in stereo and mono program material ... "By all the accepted standards of evaluation... the Advents are as accurate reproducers of sound as any top-line system we have heard." —THE STEREOPHILE "The lows ... remained strong and clean all the way down to 20 Hz with very low distortion... Without a doubt, the Advent is one of the smoothest and widest-range speaker systems we have had the pleasure of testing . . . "The tone-burst response was excellent throughout, ranking with the best we have seen from any speaker ... "The extreme low-bass reproduction, which is one of.the most expensive characteristics to build into a speaker system, sets the Advent speaker apart from anything else in its price class. In this respect, it can only be compared to the best acoustic-suspension speakers selling for twice its price—or more." —STEREO REVIEW The Advent/2: (Available late October) ADVENT DOES IT AGAIN See the exciting Advent/2, a new low cost loud­ speaker system designed for unprecedented performance-per-dollar. Housed in a molded thermo-set plastic cabinet, this new speaker uses drivers associated with speakers of twice the cost to produce wider range, higher efficiency and greater power handling than other systems in its price class. This feat is accomplished through use of an acoustic suspension woofer and two direct-radiating tweeters. The stylish molded plastic cabinet is less expensive than a wood cabinet of equivalent acoustic performance, allowing more of the cost to be invested in the drivers. The magnetic structure of the woofer, for instance, is as massive as that of the original Advent Loudspeaker! THE DOUBLE ADVENT SYSTEM The Absolute Sound is a magazine written by and for advanced audiophiles, and in this sense it is very different from other audio publications written for a broader audience. Absolute Sound tested the Double Advents (two Advents on each channel) and, in a mind-blowing review, picked the Double Advents as one of the four best speaker systems in the world! (The other three cost between $1,000 and $3,000.) The reviewers had this to say: "The spaciousness of the two working in tandem suggested that of a huge Bozak system, but without its considerable frequency deviations. The bass, if anything, had that certain low-end sock you hear in a good hall, and the upper strings, massed violins in particular, began to sound like massed violins. "We must say that we really had no idea of just how good the Advents were until we tried them with the ... combination of the Citation 11A and the Phase Linear 700. Each improvement in the amplification chain of the reference system made considerable differences in the way we perceived the performance of the Double Advent System. At present, with the ADC XIM, the Citation, the Phase Linear and a ReVox A77Mk III, the Double Advents sound more like good electrostatics than any other cone-type speaker we have ever heard. The Double Advents, however, sacrifice nothing in the way of bass response and they are capable of handling volumes pf sound that will make your ears feel as if they are watering. At the very high end, from about 10kHz up to approximately 15 kHz or so (you actually extend the sense of upper-end response with the Advents in tandem), the Advents are very smooth. They are somewhat superior in imag ing to most speakers and they reproduce the sense of overtones and the upper harmonics better than any cone speaker that we can think of." HP (reviewer) Another reviewer comments: "I can add little'to HP's review except to say that you have to start at $250 per speaker to have anything to compare the Advents to, which means that $240fora pair of Advents is really quite a bargain. I can also confirm the adjectives used: firm, detailed and transparent." —HFL OTHER EXCELLENT ADVENT PRODUCTS THE ADVENT MODEL 201 CASSETTE DECK Features: —Dolby noise-reduction circuitry —Fast fast-forward and rewind —Record and output level con­ trols —Heavy-duty tape transport —Settings for chrome and regu­ lar tape —Single VU meter shows maxi­ mum of 2 channels Some exceptionally clear quotes from reviewers on the Advent Model 201 Cassette Deck: "The Advent 201 easily met its specifications and established itself—at least for now—as the best cassette recorder we know of.

HIGH FIDELITY "It is difficult to restrain our enthusiam for the Advent 201.

ESS HEIL AMT 1 $299°° Loudspeakers •SS HEIL AMT 1 The loudspeaker of the future . . . With an entirely new principle in sound propagation. With five times the clarity and delineation of an electrostatic. With absolute, non-resonant fidelity. With distortion as low as that found in modern electronics. With a moving system so weightless it accelerates instantly to capture the airy sheeri and transient power of the live performance. With no "piston" surface, no voice coil, no plastic suspension devices, no significant mass, no forward-backward motion, no resonance. Here are the first 2 reviews of the AMT 1: From Music World, Feb. 1973 ". • • • it's one of the most efficient things around (requires little power), will handle very high power, presents a constant 6 ohm resistive load, drivers are consumer replaceable in less than one minute and dis­ perses 360 degrees. "After all of that, how. does it sound? Accurate! That's the best way I know to describe it. Terms like-open, detailed, transient response, depth, clean high end, and natural are merely words used to describe the lack of the same and are inappropriate in this case. The Heil sounds like music. On every type of music from a moog to a sitar to hard rock, the music passes through in the most precis'e form I've ever witnessed. "And by the way, record companies, you'd better get your stuff together, your products are about to be very carefully scrutinized by Heil owners." From Stereo Review Here is what noted audio critic Julian Hirsch had to say about the AMT 1: "Its measure frequency response alone (± 1 db, 50-20,000 hz) would invite the use of superlatives... overall frequency response and smoothness are comparable to a good high fidelity amplifier. We were glad—though hardly surprised to note that the AMT 1 sounded as good as measurements indicated. "Overall the AMT 1 's transparency, definition and clarity were *state .,of the art' in every respect. Perhaps the best way to convey our total impression is to say that the AMT 1 has just the listening qualities one would expect from a speaker with a +. 1 db response over practically the entire range of musical frequencies."

FOUR CHANNEL HAS ARRIVED! After several years of confusion, it is safe to say that quadraphonic sound is here to stay. We'll discuss briefly the two types of 4 channel sound, and then give you our feelings on the way to go. MATRIX RECORDINGS SOFTWARE AVAILABILITY * On a matrix record, the four original program sources have been encoded into two ordinary audio channels. The method of encoding varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, so that the SQ system (Columbia records) differs slightly from the QS or regular matrix system developed by Sansui. To recover four separate signals, a "decoder" is needed but even the best decoder cannot recover completely the original four channels. Thus, some cross-blending among the four channels is inevitable. Even a small amount of separation, however, provides a degree of spatial perception to the listener, so that matrix recordings can and do present a very satisfactory "surround sound" impression. DISCRETE DISCS The CD-4 system, developed by JVC in Japan, is beginning to make inroads into the record market. A CD-4 record actually contains four different signals. Two are inscribed on each wall of the stereo groove—one in the usual manner and one by means of a variable high frequency tone, called a "carrier." The carrier contains high frequency information from 20,000 to 45,000 Hz. For a cartridge to recover this "carrier" information, it must have a virtually flat frequency response to 45,000 Hz. This is a strong requirement, and only a handful of today's cartridges are up to the task. In addition to a special cartridge, a demodulator is needed to unscramble the four channels. At present there are over 300 4-channel matrix records, and about 40 discrete Quadradiscs from RCA. The Warner-Elektra group, however, has recently signed up for CD-4 discrete recording, and this-will provide almost as many discs as the matrix systems. Stereo discs can be played through a quad de­ coder or demodulator with no harm (in fact, the stereo record will sound better than through a conventional system!). Quad records can be played on a stereo system with no harm so compatability is not a problem here. WHICH SYSTEM? Both matrix and CD-4 will be around far into the foreseeable future. There are advantages to each. The CD-4 system has superior separation, and gives a "truer" 4-channel sound, but there is at present no way to broadcast discrete FM. On the other hand, no special equipment is required to send matrixed FM recordings. All the recent 4-channel receivers have some form of built-in matrix circuit, and a few have CD-4 demodulators. Any receiver or amplifier worth its salt can accommodate optional "outboard" or add-on matrix decoders or demodulators, so there is no real obsolescence problem. Remember: no matter what system or systems emerge as victorious, you will need two stereo amplifiers and four speakers and MOST IMPORTANTLY, ORDINARY STEREO RECORDS PLAYED THROUGH ANY MATRIX SYSTEM AND FOUR SPEAKERS SOUND DRAMATICALLY BETTER AND FULLER THAN THE ORDINARY STEREO RECORD PLAYED THROUGH TWO SPEAKERS. RECOMMENDATIONS: If you are interested in four-channel (and you should be!) then you have two clear alternatives: I. If you have an existing stereo system, then you can add another amplifier and either a matrix decoder, a discrete demodulator or both. We offer three such add-on packages on Page 9. II. If you have no stereo system, or if you do and want to sell it or trade,up, then you should consider a complete four-channel system, or a stereo system which can ~ be expanded into four channels with the flick of a switch and an extra set of speakers. Four-channel receivers and amplifiers that feature "bridging" or "strapping" circuitry allow you to combine the built-in rear channel amplifiers with the front amplifiers to produce more than double the ordinary stereo power. For example, the Harman-Kardon 900+ produces .a conservative 32 watts RMS into each of 4 channels with all channels operating, from 20 to 20,000 Hz. Strapped for use as a stereo amplifier, it produces over 90 watts RMS per channel from 20 to 20,000 Hz. Strapped or bridged receivers are the perfect solutions for those who want four channel someday but can't afford the extra set of speakers now. We recommend three good "strapped" four channel systems. kardon © g 11CHANNEL RECEIVERS •0 MULTI-CHANNEL RECEIVERS WITH BUILT-IN SQ AND "UNIVERSAL MATRIX" DECODERS MAKE IT EASY TO UPGRADE TO QUAD! HARMAN-KARDON's multichannel receivers have a unique bridging circuit tffot give you stereo or quad with the flick of a switch. But unlike other quad receivers, when you switch to stereo you don't lose the rear channel power. In fact, you more than double it! The 75+, 100+, and 150+ differ primarily in power output and tuner sensitivity. They share these features: * • Two separate power supplies permit power amplifiers to generate full RMS output with all fpur channels driven simultaneously even under musical str® s conditions. The power supplies are separated into two sections: left front and back and right front and back. Each side of the receiver, therefore, is fed by its own supply voltage. This enables the receiver to maintain absolute left-to-ri^ht separation regardless of mode of operation, or type of program material played. • All circuitry follows the Citation tradition of design with close tolerance components and conservatively rated specifications. • Ultra-wideband power amplifier and preamplifier stages yield precedented phase linearity from 1 Hertz to beyond 75kHz. • Bass and treble controls for front and back tone adjustment permit exceptional flexibility, especially in the stereo mode with remote speakers in another room. Each set of speakers now has its own tone control setting. • 360 degree joystick sound field balance control enables user to set stereo or quad sound source anywhere within the listening area. Unquestionably most versatile control ever designed for a home music system. un- System 9: The Boggling Horn THOR£N5 • WHY TWIN POWER SUPPLIES? Harman Kardon receivers feature twin power supplies (not merely "dual" power supplies). Twin power supplies have a separate power transformer for each channel. This results in audibly superior sound, especially at the frequency extremes, since strong power demands in one channel cannot rob the other channel of power. Concerning the amplifier section of the Harman Kardon 930 receiver (same design found in the 630, on Page 5 and the new Harman Kardon multichannel receivers, shown below). Len Feldman of Audio said: ". . . but it's the amplifier and pre-amplifier section that leaves this reviewer wide-eyed and somewhat awed. This is the kind of amplifier performance we tend to find (and then only rarely) in the very best separate pre-amplifiers and {Power amplifiers. "We're the first to admit that it's very easy to become 'brainwashed' by highly promoted engineering design features and while 'two independent power supplies' sounds like a sensible idea, we wondered whether or not we would be fible to hear any advantage. When we really began to pump power and used truly dynamic source material, we knew, instantly, that there was something better about the sound we heard. ^ Now, of course, this apparent improvement might be due to the excellent rise- time and square wave response, it might be due to the wide-band frequency response (which Harman-Kardon has espoused for years and years), or it might even be due to other design features which still elude us, but whatever the eason(s), this was our kind of sound — and our kind of sound, dear reader, is the ind that makes us feel like we are there — at the performance!" i A division of Jervis Corporation For $3200 you can buy 1,600 pounds of T-bone steak, or even a VW and 100 pounds Qf ham­ burger. We've got a better idea! (Where have you heard that before?) You can buy our Sys­ tem Number 9: The Outrageous, Mind- Boggling, Home-Wrecking System. The control center for this ultimate among ultimates is the fabulous new Phase Linear 4000 preamplifier. After the job Phase Linear did building the Models 400 and 700 power amplifiers, we (and everyone else!) eagerly awaited their first preamplifier. They've out­ done themselves! The 4000 has three new cir­ cuits which audibly do more to improve sound than any other devices we've seen. Two of them, the "peak unlimiter". and the "downward ex­ pander," make up for the compression and •gain-riding done by recording studios. These dastardly techniques rob records of dynamic. range. The result, compared with a live per­ formance, is a loss of "punch" at the musical extremes. The sizzle of a cymbal is lost the near-seismic impact of a bass drum is dimin­ ished. This is one area where high fidelity has been lacking, but no more! The peak unlimiter and downward expander restore the dynamics lost during the recording process.

Mill! The TANDBERG 9000X, Tandberg's first three motor machine, is even better than everyone expected — and that says a lot! Stereo Review said of the 9000X "The performance was as nearly ideal as any we've seen . . . represents the current state of the art for consumer tape recorders." Stereo Review found that the response at 3% inches per second (not 716) was 30 to 22,300 Hz, ±2 db. This is better than any other machine we know of at 7!4 i.p.s. Think about this: the differ­ ence in price between the 9000X and a typical $300 machine will be more than recovered after making only 60 tapes! TANDBERG "The Norwegian Products with a World-Wide Reputation" TANDBERG Features: • Three motors * Three speeds: 714, 3%, 1% i.p.s. • Mixing • Sophisticated logic-controlled transport with 15 IC's (equivalent to about 700 transistors!)

Improvements include: • Lower wow and flutter • 4 dB better signal to noise ratio • dynamic range increased by 20 dB • mixing capabilities In fact, the 3300X will out-record any other machine made except for the Tandberg 9000X, and the perform­ ance characteristics of the two are virtually identical.

When Tandberg makes a cassette deck, you know cassettes have come of age. Tandberg decided that they just wouldn't produce a cassette machine until they could engineer one that could meet the same stringent standards imposed on Tandberg's famous reel-to-reel recorders. And that's just what's been done with the fabulous new TCD 300—Tandberg's first cassette tape deck. If you're familiar with tape recorder specifications, just listen to these: Three motors, including one hysteresis synchronous drive motor and two DC reel motors that can wind or rewind a C- 60 cassette in 40 seconds. Dual capstans for precise tape handling and a wow and flutter reading of 0.15% RMS. Dual peak-reading record level meters that also show play­ back level. Built-in Dolby system and a Cr02 tape switch, allowing an incredible 63 db signal to noise ratio! Standard features include electronic push-button controls, linear motion input level potentiometers, electronic endstop, built-in micro­ phone preamps, an automatic tape counter with push-button reset, and constant wind and rewind tape speed. Difficult to believe? Wait until you hear the sound of the TCD 300, and feel the precision of its controls. Then you'll know what we mean when we say that the Tandberg TCD 300 is the first cassette recorder built to stand comparison with the finest reel-to-reel machines. All for just w wnai we mean '399* STEREOCRAFT emphasizes Maxell Maxell tape, for all the right reasons. Maxell is demonstrably superior to all other tape, both mechanically and in recording performance. The Maxell cassettes are so phenomenally. reli­ able that we've had only 4 returns in over 5,000 sold! College audiovisual centers, with their high-speed dupli­ cating equipment and need for precise length of tapes, are sending unsolicited praise to the Maxell company. These details of cassette construction put Maxell way ahead: a pressure pad that's clamped in place by a metal frame, not just glued a leader tape that's maHced exactly 5 seconds ahead of the actual re­ cording tape, for precision in starting tape and record together the leader tape is also a non-abrasive head cleaner. Also, the new Maxell UDC-46 cassette is exactly twenty-three minutes per side, which very conveniently happens to be the approximate playing time of your average long-playing record. These features and performance are reason enough to buy Maxell. At these prices, it's irresistabJe!

Why you should buy the best turntable you can afford. Chances are you've already put more money into your record collection than into the rest of your entire component system. That's reason enough to make sure that nothing happens to your records when you play them. Remember, records are made of soft vinyl, and they're played with a diamond-tipped stylus. And there's nothing harder on this earth than a diamond. If that stylus can't respond easily and freely to all the contours of the record groove, there's trouble. Especially with the sharp and fragile curves which produce the high frequencies. Instead of going around these peaks, the stylus will simply lop them off. And with those little bits of vinyl go the high notes, your record and your investment. There's still more to consider. The. record must rotate at precisely the right speed, or pitch will be off. The motor must be quiet and free of vibration, or rumble will be added to the music. In short, the turntable should neither add sounds to a record, nor take any«away. And that's the kind of turntable you should want. To get that kind of turntable, we suggest you ask someone you know and trust who really knows components. A friend. A record reviewer. An audio engineer, or a good audio dealer. We'll leave it to you to decide if you can afford anything less than a Dual. H* A STABLE OF DUAL THOROUGHBREDS . . THE BEST DUAL OF THEM ALL . . . THE DUAL 701 THE 701 FEATURES TWO IMPORTANT ENGINEERING BREAKTHROUGHS The DUAL 701 is the quietest turntable ever made for two reasons: A new electronic, low-speed DC motor, with feedback controlled'speed precision. DUAL's exclusive design of overlapping coils simulates an infinite number of poles and thus eliminates even the minutest pulses during rotation. DUAL's exclusive anti-resonance filters are built into the counterbalance. They are tuned to remove parasitic resonances derived from the tonearm/cartridge system and the chassis. Each filter effectively cancels out the resonant energy that would normally cause distortion. In practical terms, this means that disturbances caused by record warp, dust on the record, feedback and excessive floor vibration will be eliminated. FEATURE-LOADED TABLES AT MODERATE PRICES!
