C|NT*Ai WASHINGTON STXTt COtltGI rier January 17, 1974 Vol. 47 No. 12 \ u Sen. Henry 'Scoop' Jackson Senator says'Just talking common sense7 In a breakfast-speech fund-rai­ ser before Kittitas County Demo­ crats last Saturday morning, Senator Henry M. (Scoop) Jack­ son spoke of a wide variety of national interest events, from Congressional oil , company probes, to the Russian wheat deal. Sen. Jackson did not talk about the possibility of a forthcoming Presidential impeachment, or his own aspirations to that office. - Jackson did say that the current oil shortage would be the subject of an in-depth probe to be started when Congress recon­ venes. The investigation will be carried out by the Senate Per­ manent Subcommittee On Inves­ tigations, which he chairs. The Washington Democrat said he isn't out "to get anyone, I. don't believe in making them (the oil companies) a scapegoat just because they're big-that's just demagoguery," "What I want are the facts," Senator Jackson said, "I'm tired of these stories and rumors." Jackson continued that the U S cannot continue it's role as "a viable world power" as long as it gets 35 per cent of it's annual oil supply from abroad. He said that the nation must seek out new sources of energy, and expedite the building of the trans-Alaska pipeline. Because oil is an important "all pervasive ingredient of our daily lives," Jackson said that the oil business is a business affected with the public interest. Being so, he will introduce a bill next Monday during the first new session of Congress calling for the international oil companies to be federally-chartered, with a representative of the United States Government sitting on the Board Of Directors. Oil compan­ ies, under the charter proposi­ tion, will be made to disclose their business activities, and their Holdings. Senator Jackson, on a whirl­ wind tour of the state before going back to Washington, D.C., said he believes that the country can have both a good environ­ ment and economic growth. The senator has sponsored much of the environmental legislation that has gone before Congress in previous years, and called for an "energy czar" years before the Nixon Administration implemen­ ted such a program. "There's no job too big for our country,"Jackson told the crowd of about 200 at the Ellensburg Holiday Inn, "and if we had the trans-Alaska pipeline in opera­ tion now, we would not be in the pickle we're in." Receiving questions from his audience, Sen. Jackson said that there was no fair way to ration gasoline, but it was, in his opinion, the only way to go. He also said he thought the wheat deal with the Russians perpe­ trated by Secretary of Agricul­ ture Earl Butz was a "raw deal." He said he looked forward to the time when "we won't have any more Butz to kick around." Jackson also said he favored the Federally Insured Student Loan program. "I think it's a very good program. I want to assure the students that we'll do everything we can. The problem is the blockage of it by the Administration, and the im­ poundment of funds to support it, but we'll do everything we can."

Filing for ASC begins ^ HoCo p' an^f!!zi The Low Income Housing Coalition (LoHoCo) will be Candidate filing began this week for the Associated Stud­ ents of Central offices, the election of which is slated for Feb. 12. Bill Gillespie, who was in charge of conducting the election last year, will again direct the election process, and had some comments for the Crier about this yfear's outlook. Concerning general student involvement in the campaigns, the nominating convention, and the voting on election day, Gillespie remarked, "I really hope students get involved this year, but I have a feeling that they might not," he remarked. Last year, approximately 110 students voted on election day, out of a possible 6800. "I think there are a lot of reasons for it,*' he added. "Some students are here just for school, some are here to party, some feel it's useless, some feel they have no chance, and some iust don't care." He said that things "are running really smoothly right now. All we need is more candidates to file." His staff is cutting corners this year, having been forced to operate within a $600 budget, compared with last year's budget of about $1000. One important change initiat­ ed this year is a mandatory disclosure of all campaign disclo­ sures, the amounts of which will be made available to the Crier. Candidates are being limited to about $90 for campaign spending. The rule is an attempt to adhere to Initiative 276, passed into law last year in this state. Another change in the election process this year will be that 'absentee ballots must be speci­ fically requested by students, rather than being routinely sent out. Filing for candidacy ends Monday. Positions open are for ASC president, executive vice- president (who also serves as chairperson to the student legis­ lature, ASL), the administrative vice-president, and positions on the ASL. Other positions open are on the college faculty senate and the campus judicial council. The ASC nominating conven1 tion, which some consider to be the highlight of the election process, will be held Jan 25- 26. Officials answer ASL questions Various college officials ap­ peared before the ASC legis­ lature Monday night to answer student questions on a multitude of topics ranging from ways in which studehts could influence quarterly schedules to catsup container styles in the dining halls. The topic drawing most com­ ments from the students was the fact that this quarter began the day after New Years Day, and created a number of problems. ASL members questioned the necessity for beginning the quarter so early. John Presson, a legislator, asked Jim Riffey, Central's busi­ ness manager, and Paul Bechtel, physical plant director, why the student parking lots around campus had not been cleared after the heavy snowfall during Christmas vacation. Bechtel answered that a num­ ber of circumstances combined to prevent snow clearance. The snow fell during the college employe four-day vacation for New Years Day (also the week­ end just prior to the return of students), cars left in the parking lots over the vacation were situated in a manner which prevented the use of the heavy A PERFECT BLEND OF FORM AND FUNCTION The Beogram 300 Turntable $26S Rosewood base, cover and 380 SP-12A Cartridge included From STEREO REVIEW, Jan. 74: An important benefit of the innegrated arm/cartridge design is the low mass of the system.

Other maintenance questions concerned lighting on campus, removing ice from potentially dangerous walkways and ramps, and the possibility of establishing some sort of evaluative commun­ ication between students and Riffy and Bechtel. Riffey remarked that while he frankly didn't welcome sugges­ tions from 6,000 students, he would welcome advice from a unified group representing the student population. At one point in the discussions, Bill Gillespie, RHC chairman, remarked that students must accept some of the responsib­ ilities for problems occuring during periods of heavy snow­ falls. He cited examples where he observed students parking their cars illegally in service drives, then taking as much as two and a half hours to Unload their per­ sonal belongings before moving their cars. He mentioned that he observed more female violaters than male. ASL members expressed an interest in helping the admin­ istration decide when the begin­ ning of a quarter should begin. Lou Bovos, college registrar, said that final decision is made by the vice-president for Academic Af­ fairs and it is to him that members should approach. The informal meeting ended with a comment by Larry Brown, a legislator, who told the admin­ istrators, "Anytime the student government doesn't live up to its responsibilities, please criticize us. We, more than any other body on this campus, needs it." The Low Income Housing Coalition (LoHoCo) will be holding a state-wide meeting here this Saturday to discuss its strategy for this session of the legislature. , T1 . ,, According to Jim Maloney of the ASC Tenant s Union, the meeting will take place in the Grupe Conference Center from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. this Saturday. # . "We'll be discussing strategy for the upcoming legislature, said Maloney. "I haven't seen the agenda yet, but Im sure well be discussing federal law in relation to low income housing among other things." The Tenant's Union chairman said that LoHoCo was the only organization that represents the people that have to live in low income housing. j A 4 Maloney attributes the passsage of the landlord tenant law to LoHoCo's lobbying effort. The law gave new rights to occupants of rented housing. Anyone who is interested may attend, says Maloney, who expects about 40 participants from across the state. PE Dept. presents workshop A performing member of the Dance Theatre Seattle will serve as guest instructor for a special one-day modern dance and dance for gymnastics workshop on campus this Saturday. The intermediate level workshop, to be held in Nicholson Pavilion from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., will be a participation and demonstration session. Modern dance techniques and creative composition work will be the subject of the morning portion of the workshop. The afternoon session will be devoted to gymnastics dancing. Cost of the workshop is $1.50 for both sessions or $1 per single • session, according to Lana Jo Sharpe, of the Central Physical Education Department. Ms. Carol Rix, a member of Dance Theatre Seattle and teacher at Chief Sealth High School in Seattle, will be the instructor. She has served as a gymnastics coach as well as dance teacher. Information about the workshop is available at the Physical Education Department. Co-Rec schedules 2 trips Two ski trips and the receipt of 20 pairs of ice skates were announced by the office of Co-rec this week. According to A1 Robinson of the rental shop, Co-rec will be sponsoring a ski trip to Mission Ridge this Saturday. The cost of the trip is four dollars for transportation and the vans will leave at 7:30 a.m. and return when the lifts close at 4 p.m. Co-rec is also scheduling a trip for Wednesday of next week to Snoqualmie Pass. The evening trip's transportation cost is $2 and information on both trips may be obtained in SUB 102 or by calling 963-1511. Robinson also announced the Rental shop received ten pairs of ladies ice skates and ten pairs of men's ices skates. The going rate is 50 cents a day or one dollar for a weekend and a deposit is required. State offers internships The Washington State Department of Personnel announces that there will be approximately 100 summer internships available this year, almost all of which will be in the Olympia area. These afford opportunities for students to get practical experience in governmental fields related to their academic training or professional interests. Students must have senior year standing at the end of this academic year to apply.

Wendell Hill, director of auxil- ary services, said that students living in the College Duplex housing area, located just north of the psychology building, might be allowed to have dogs this summer. "We'd like to have a trial in one area so we could see how things turn out," said Hill. . He said that the duplex area was most suited for the experi­ ment because each living area has a small back yard enclosed by a fence. At the summer's end, an evaluation of the experiment would be made, hopefully result­ ing in a formal housing policy. "Were dogs to be allowed in college housing," said Hill, "I think we'd have an extra damage deposit for people having pets. Part of that deposit would go for fumigation of the units when the occupants left." He estimated the additional deposit to be between $25 and $40. POOCHES NOT ALLOWED - That's the sad dogs may be allowed in some off-campus housing fate for this fellow now, but if a new experiment complexes. [Photo by Chang P. Jay] tentatively slated to begin this summer works, Kechi study blends two worlds Anthropology and environ­ mental studies major Ella Sohier has discovered how to beat the misery of an Ellensburg winter. She's leaving for Central America. "I'll be stationed in British Honduras 45 jungle miles from the nearest village," she said. "The government there says it might be able to provide me with quarters, but I'm afraid that won't mean much more than a hut and hammock to sleep in." Ms. Sohier's expedition is in pursuit of an inter-departmental Master of Science degree. She will be studying the Kekchi people, an Amer-Indian race of Mayan descent and is taking $2,000 worth of medical supplies for whatever health care she is capable of dispensing. The sup­ plies for whatever health care she is capable of dispensing. The supplies were donated to her by the Cowlitz General Hospital. Her area of study involves the blending of two fields, anthropol­ ogy and medicine. "A good doctor or nurse must learn to treat more than just bodies," she said. "We must understand the living culture of which the patient is a part if we're to treat the whole person. Too often we'll tear an Alaskan Eskimo out of his natural envir­ onment, put him in a modern hospital where he is surrounded by white coats and flourescent lights, and wonder why he doesn't heal." Ms. Sohier, a nurse of 16 years experience, has seen her practice take her to countries as varied as Belgium, Holland, Canada, Scot­ land and England. Still she admits her few months with the Kekchi will be a real first. "To tell you the truth I'm a little scared," she said. "But it's going to be an experience!" - Security name change The individual titles of Central's Campus Security Officers were changed to Campus Police on January 1st. The changes of title are: Security Officers to Campus Police Officers, Security Officers II and III to Campus Police Sergeants, and Director of Security to Chief of Campus Police. The Civil Service reclassification was made in order to better describe the duties performed by the officers, according to Chief of Campus Police, Alfred H. Pickles. Chief Pickles emphasized the changing of the officers titles will not include a change in their function. In the past there has been 'confusion on the part of some Central students as the authority of the Campus Security. Chief Pickles and a majority of the officers feel the change in title will be an improvement in that it will clarify the officers role on campus. However, Campus Police Officer, Adolph Brickley, feels the change in title will not make his job any easier. When asked about the title change, he said: ".I don't like titles, to me a job is a job no matter what you call it." r f tmtm FRESH MILK 63° V2 fiallo it OPEN 4 00 to 7 PM DAILY Siyders Bread, Walkers Farm Fresh Eggs, Butter, lea Cream.

FOOD STAMPS ACCEPTED 419 W. 15th Ave. 8 blocks West of the Pavilion Cats will be at least tempor­ arily left out of the experiment, and Hill doubts that cats will be allowed as pets. He claims that kittens are more apt to be abandoned than puppies and that cats have "scent piles." Student-owned cats were seen to have been "playing" in the childrens' sandbox. Soon after, one child contracted ringworms and the malady was blamed on the cats. Hill fears this type of incident could arise again. However, one cat lover at Central disagrees with Hill on his final point, and she claims that cats very rarely transmit di­ seases to humans. She cited Felicia Ames, author of "The Cat You Care For, A Manual of Cat Care. Ms. Ames writes, "...diseases transmitted by cats are so infrequent that these words are meant as a reassurance that cats are not the disease carriers that some say they are. When you consider the amount of disease passed on from human to human, cats really turn out to be much safer friends." He did point out that prohibi­ ting cats in college housing was not an absolutely final decision, and that constructive suggetions would be welcomed. One student suggested that persons owning pets in housing complexes should compile a list of all pets, including the animal's name and a brief description, along with the owner's name, address and phone number. "This would greatly reduce the number of pets which are lost simply because the animal wan­ dered to a nearby apartment and its occupants did not know from where it came," she said. "The list could be posted in central locations around the complex, and as new pets were acquired, additions to the lists could be made." • Whether the dog and cat controversy is ever settled, two things are certain. First, if you live in a dormitory, reading this story may have been a waste of time because as it now stands, the housing authorities have no intention of allowing any pets in the dorms. Second, dogs and cats may be in doubt, but birds and fish are not-Hill said that housing "has nothing against fish or birds." the 925-9511 IOPEN 6:45 Shows At 7:00 & 9:10 G and now the film...

An incident arose last! September between a Central professor and a student couple, t&e Hatchs, that has resulted in a very frustrating quarter for One, and the discontinuance of the other's education. [For details, see page 7.] The crime is not the conflict which arose, but the fact that the administration conducted a farce of an investigation into thje matter, then for one reason or another, refused to forthrightly deal with the matter. The buck was passed from administrator to administrator, each coming up with an origiorial reason for not accepting responsibility for dealing with the. situation. It is interesting, for example, to note that Albert Poffenroth, who stated that "the Hatch's grade problem was the direct responsibility of the education department's director, considered it last quarter within his powers as dean of professional studies (which includes education), to change a P.E. student's grade. It was assumed that the professor had made a mistake and confused one student with another. The only real difference between the two cases was the complexity of the problem. v . Edward Harrington, to whom the case was finally brought to by • the frustrated Hatchs, has met with the couple on numerous occasions. He asked for documents to support the Hatchs claims. He later stated that he had received two letters, and that they both told him nothing he didn't already know. The Crier has received copies of four letters sent to Dr. Harrington, all of which fully support the Hatchs stories, thus raising serious questions as to the motivating factors behind Dr. Harrington's actions. Our investigations have uncovered evidence of false statements, discrepancies, and attempts at covering up the truth of what happened that week in Wenatchee. The overwhelming majority of our facts leads us to believe that the Hatchs" have been mistreated once by the education department, then again by the college administration wishing to keep the matter quiet until it can be quietly resolved. We urge this administration to again investigate the matter and this time, deal with it in a direct and responsible manner. Why blame the medium ? Sometimes the messenger gets blamed for the message. Though this paper makes decisions on handling of facts placement of stories and the opinions expressed, these are based on what happens on campus. At least two administrators have expressed concern over coverage or tried to impede coverage of the reduction-in-force policy which is really an administrative euphimism for the firing of faculty, or faculty layoffs. By most standards the reduction-in-force story is the biggest on campus in a long time. If anything, this newspaper has not had enough coverage of the story that will affect course offerings, the job status and work load of every faculty member here, student career planning and most probably the long range thinking and philosophy of the college. Yet the administration has held a secret meeting on the subject, told this newspaper it would not be "helpful" to publish to names and reactions of the people being fired, and indicated in an open forum that this paper was over playing the reduction-in-force issue. This newspaper has not created the reduction-in-force problem but it will continue, to cover, to the best of its ability, all the information of the subject, not just the news the administration believes would be helpful. This college certainly has enough instruments of public relations and college promotion without the student newspaper becoming one. Attempts to influence the messenger will not change the message. Likewise, an opinion last week in this paper, on the growing disinterest in the ASC and ASL was based on the failure of the groups to address important issues, lack of organization, petty personality conflicts at meetings, and failure of the group to be able to stir enough interest to even hold Fall Elections. Not on something that was just dreamed up. This opinion was expressed in hopes it would bring the problem in focus, rather than the messenger of the problem. Some phone and personal criticism was also levied at the investigation of campus security by the police chief and the editor of this paper. It detailed how would-be thieves could have a field day on lower campus. Some asked how we dared print an explanation of the campus vulnerability. It seems last quarter, someone found they could steal $2,000 worth of video tape equipment. It was over a week before the equipment was even reported stolen. Again, some people were concerned the Crier had printed the information and yet expressed no concern over solving the problem. As Katharine Graham, chairman of the board of The Washington Post said just last Saturday, the press would become "the nursemaid of a weak and immature society if it surpressed bad and unsettling news." As a newspaper we have a fundemental belief that the people have a right to know what's going on. To the best of our ability, we will continue to offer news and opinion on what's going on. Though it's entirely possible the messenger can be at fault, by and large the message is what deserves attention. FACULTY GRm. smwrs Hunt conditioning takes odd turn She was a beautiful animal. A pure-bred english pointer with light brown saddling and finely sprinkled ticking that shone like ermine fur, an achievement in breeding, an epitome of configur­ ation but she had been severly mistreated. The object of the experiment was to condition her to overcome her fear of nearly everything, and especially to condition her to develop a fondness and even an eager anticipation for loud noises, because she was to be used on birds and indeed she had a fine nose for them and they were the one thing she was not afraid of, her blood being true. The experimenter set out to cure her, thusly a heavy leather belt was to be the noisemaker. It was doubled and grasped at either end and the hands held close together so that a space was created between the doubled length of the belt. With a sudden outward move­ ment of both hands the belt was made to produce a sharp snap in simulation of a gun report. At each snap of the belt the subject was given a two inch square of Safeway Boneless Holiday ham. The test lasted three days, each testing period being approxi­ mately twenty-five belt snaps and a like number of ham squares in duration. The test was discon­ tinued with the following results. The subject was now terrified of ham, particularly Safeway Boneless Holiday ham diced in two inch squares. University status ? OK, but... To the editor: I was pleased to read that the State Council on Higher Education has deemed us worthy of a "university" title, and I wish to commend President Brooks for his efforts toward that end. However, I must respectfully disagree with Dr. Brooks' suggestion that we be called "Central Washington University." What we need is a name that will help us achieve rapid fame and money. How about "Harvard"? The old Harvard has an endowment of $1.5 billion they'd hardly notice the difference if, in their confusion, some donors mistakenly sent a few million our way. Consider the possibility of our hiring some confused Nobel laureates. The benefits would be enormous! If the ethics of such a move seem questionable, there is another way to achieve instant status-by-association: 'University of California at Ellensburg, Washington."

To the editor: While hundreds of unanswered questions lie dormant in the Senate Watergate Committee files, and the possibility of major oil companies fabricating the energy crisis makes the gossip circuit, students here at Central and all across the country sit back and immerse themselves in the draft free, tranquilized exis­ tence that has become the 1974 college lifestyle. Yes, it's even gotten to the point where the Vice President of the United States, Spiro Whats-his-name, can resign from office because of criminal charges concerning income tax evasion and remain nearly unmolested by radical student groups. What happened to the Stu­ dents for a Democratic Society? Where is the dissent that so marked the Viet Nam war? Where are the marches on the Federal Court Houses? Why have the students chosen to remain silent on issues of such magnitude? "But that's not so!!!!" cry ex-left wingers who now spend much of their time rolling joints down at the Ranch. "We just need a big issue! Take the draft, man, now THAT was a big issue!!" So, we finally come to the real crux of the matter. The resigna­ tion of Agnew, and the Water­ gate mess does not strike close enough to home to really get the students excited. The draft, on the other hand, was a very big threat to each and every male student, in a very real and personal way. Yes, it seems that students everywhere have finally become infected by the most deadly of all social diseases, APATHY. The one disease that they bravely and unselfishly fought when their own security was at stake, but now that the danger has passed, the curse of the fifties has found a home in its most adamant adversary, the college student of USA, 1974. This writer, for one, thinks that it's about time that the students here at Central and across the country get off their fat posteriors, throw off the bonds of the dreaded disease that has infected the ranks of the left wing vanguard and make them­ selves heard. Let us not allow the apathy that we so quickly This letter is in response to Mr. Gorman's letter on the Nixon cartoon. First, on vulgarity, a good percentage of students at Central feel that the president's actions make a cartoon like that one to be a comparative example of excellent taste. As for being uncalled for, most of the people I talked to felt it was 100 per cent called for. The editorial page is the space for opinions to be expressed. If the editor's opinion is such, then the cartoon is logical. If people feel that this is wrong, they understand it, is to help develop journalism by providing a real paper to put out. In "real" news­ papers, strong opinions are quite often expressed. In "real life", a newspaper that puts out an unpopular product goes out of business and the editor loses his job. Likewise, on a student paper, the editor is accountable to both his clientelle, indirectly, and directly to his employer. Most such school newspapers are bland and non-controversial. Personally, I would much rather see something strong, even if I don't agree with it. What Mr. Gorman wants would seem to policy which includes the use of -such cartoons. William J.

The presentation by Central's Drama -Department will be directed by Dr. Milo Smith with assistence from stu­ dent director Breece Bowen. The musical is derived from the book by Burt Shrevelove and Larry Gelbart with music by Stephen Sondheim. The play opened on Broadway in 1962 starring Zero Mostel. Mostel then recreated his role in the movie version of the play in the late 1960s. The rollicking comedy gained national critical acclaim for both its merry music and near-slap­ stick huniQr.,. The play centers around the connivings of a slave, Pseudolus, a Roman version of Sergent Bilko, who will be portrayed by Bellevue sophomore Ted King. Pseudolus is promised freedom by his master, Hero, if he can obtain for Hero the beautiful girl, Philia, whom he has seen from a window. The Part of Hero will be played by Paul O'Conner, an Avondale Pensylvania sopho­ more, with .Ellensburg senior TVlariann Mahurin Cashion as the beautiful girl. The part of Erronius, a kindly but confused charactor who is hunting for his children that were stolen by pirates, is being portrayed by Dr. Wayne Hertz. Dr. Hertz, chairman of the college's music department, will be making his first stage appear­ ance before retiring at the end of the year after 35 years at Environmental workshop emphasizes legal decision m Slade Gorton, Attorney Gen­ eral, announced last week that his office will present a workshop in Seattle on Feb. 1 to explain re­ cent legal developments - with emphasis on state Supreme Court decisions -- to persons in­ terested in planning an environ­ mental law. The workshop will include an overview of recent state and federal environmental protec­ tion, with detailed presentations planned on the state Environ­ mental Policy Act and the state Shoreline Management Act, par­ ticularly as those laws have been interpreted by the Supreme Court. The morning session will be led by Gorton and Senior Assist­ ant Attorney General Charles B. Roe, Jr., chief counsel to the Department of Ecology. Jerome L. Hillis, Seattle attor­ ney, will discuss environmental impact statements at the lunch­ eon session. The afternoon session will be devoted to the subject, "Con­ flicts of Interest - The Public Offi­ cial and Recent State Supreme Court Teachings." Senior Assist­ ant Attorney General Robert F. Hauth will lead that discussion. Attendance at the workshop, to be held at Seattle Univecsity is by advance registration. Any interested person may obtain a registration form by contacting Gorton's office, Temple of Jus­ tice, Olympia, Washington, 98504 The state Department of Ecol­ ogy is co-operating in presenting the workshop. Central. Dr. Smith said that he and Dr. Hertz have worked on musicals since "Carousal" introduced the musical format to Central in w 1957. Smith said that he suggest­ ed the part to Dr. Hertz who readily accepted, and that Dr. Hertz has been greatly enjoying 9 himself in his role. Dr. Smith also stated that he expects a large number of adults from through out the Central 9 Washington area to come to the play especially to see Hertz's per­ formance. i • Award established An award for the top broad * caster of the year at KCWS has been established in memory of James Conrad Morrill, according to Roger Reynolds, assistant pro- • fessor of mass media. Morrill, a former disc-jockey at KCWS, was killed in a tragic boating mishap last spring near* Wanapum Lake. The award is part of a $1000 memorial donated to the Mass Media program by Morrill's parents, Mr. and Mrs.* James K. Morrill of Bellevue. Besides having his name en­ graved on the memorial plaque,^ the recipient of the award will also receive the interest from the $1000 memorial, approximately $65. m The inscription on the plaque reads, "Given annually to one who brings vitality and dedica­ tion to the pursuit of excellence^ in student broadcasting at Cen­ tral Washington State College." Reynolds says the program has not yet decided on the criteria for a choosing the recipient. The first winner of the James Conrad Morrill Award will be announced this spring. m Clayton receives award Officer William R.

Jpl® ' ^ iwss Glen Hatch by Smltty editor in chief When the newly approved Board of Academic Appeals is officially established and ready to review its first cases, Glenn and Karen Hatch may be standing at the front of the line. Both are Central graduates, studying for masters' degrees, Glenn in math, Karen in history. Both worked as teacher's aids in their respective departments. They have three children. They claim that a personality conflict between a Central professor and them resulted in a grade of "Incomplete' for a course, and that the college administration has not attempted to adequately investigate the matter, but has instead sided with the professor and his department. The incident arose on Monday, Aug. 27, one week prior to the beginning of September Experience. This is a mandatory course which future teachers must complete and involves approximately three weeks of observation of a classroom situation in a public school. Odin Westgard, a Central professor living in Wenatchee area, is in charge of the student teaching September Experiience programs for The Hatch's vs. the college gency," reads a statement written by Hatch to Edward Harrington, vice-president for academic affairs. Glenn remained in Seattle with their three children until her return the next day, Wednesday. Upon returning to Ellensburg that day, they discovered that classes for the remainder of the week had been scheduled. They contend that these meetings were scheduled on Tuesday and that other students have told them that Dr. Westgaard said the only reason the classes were being held was because the Hatch couple had cotfiplained, then "left for Alaska." Dr. Westgaard told the Crier that the activities held during the Hatch's absense were planned ahead of time but not announced until Tuesday, the day of the Wenatchee High School tour. "I don't know, maybe it didn't occur to me to announce the week's schedule on Monday. Professors don't always have to announce everything ahead of time," said Dr. Westgaard. He also said that on Monday, he told the students that only for the Tuesday tour would attendance be required, because some students had to report to their respective schools for observations the following day. The meetings on Wednesday and Thursday were designed to "sharpen up (the students') observation skills." One student who attended the pre-Experience activities that week described the meetings as sessions during which "silly games" were played. She said they were supposed to give students practice in observing, but that she learned "nothing" from them, and "nothing really important" was discussed. She said that the students met for about three hours Wednesday and on Thursday, for an hour and a half on Friday. They allege Dr. Westgaard informed them that unless they observed four additional days of classes to make up for the equivalent of 52 hours of course work which they missed, they would be given grades of "Incomplete." Dr. Westgaard said that the Incomplete grades were given because liot only did the Hatches miss the pre Experience activities, but they were "either absent or unaccounted for every single day of the September Experience." Karen Hatch called this "an absolute lie," and urged the Crier to consult teachers at Wenatchee with whom, she worked during the September Experience. She ^dded the Dr. "Westgaard informed them of the four extra days Hatch s claim a bureaucratic run around the Wenatchee area. It is between the Hatches and he that the conflict arose. According to the Hatches, those who signed up for September Experience met at Wenatchee High School and were told which school they would be assigned. They were told that the next day there would be a tour of Wenatchee High and that nothing further was planned until the next week when the classroom sessions would begin on Sept. 4. After the meeting, they say, they went back to Ellensburg and among other things, spoke to Robert Carlton, director of clinical studies, who. handles all student teaching activities, about their annoyance with having to leave California a week early to "hear our names read off a list since we already knew we had been assigned to Wenatchee High." "The next day, it was necessary for Karen to leave for Juneau, Alaska on a family emer- they must observe immediately upon their return to Wenatchee High School, and thus could not have used the excuse that they were late every day, even if it had been true. They stated the only reason the makeup work was agreed to was because they felt they could have misunderstood about the scedule for that week. However, after talking to other students attending the September Experience, they claim to have learned that not only were about six hours work involved instead of 52, but that the change in schedule had been announced by both Dr. Westgaard and Ernest Chan-nui, also a student teacher supervisor at Wenatchee High' School, and that on Thursday Dr. Westgaard made a statement concerning the Hatch's conversation with,Dr. Carlton. Upon learning this, they decided to reject Dr. Westgaard's stipulation for making up the mmmmm :::vss MX# •fort ' '' Dr. Edward Harrington missed meetings, and have since attempted to get help from the administration in settling the matter. They also contend that personality conflicts arising from this and later incidents resulted in harsh behavior towards the couple by Dr. Westgaard throughout the September Exper­ ience. Their travels through the bureaucratic maze at Central have led them right back where they started—facing Dr. Westgaard. Immediately after the Hatch couple left Dr. Carlton's office where they had complained about leaving California early only to find nothing substantial scheduled for the week prior to September Experience, Dr. Carlton ^called Dr. Westgaard, asking him if this was true. Westgaard replied that it was not, that a full schedule of activities had been planned by Dr. Chan-nui and him. Conrad Potter, chairman of the education department, and Dr. Carlton's" immediate supervisor, told the Crier that he has "been informed of the situation," and concurs with the findings of an "investigation" supposedly conducted by unnamed persons within his department. When asked why he was not directly involving himself in the matter because of his position, he said, "the matter has been put in the hands of Dr. Harrington." He was referring to the fact that Glenn Hatch, after being frustrated in his efforts to have the matter settled within the department, took his case directly to Dr. Harrington. Albert "Abe" Poffenroth, acting dean of professional studies, is alleged to have told Hatch that although his professional studies include the education department, he (Poffen­ roth) "Had no authority over the department." Poffenroth, in denying the allegation, wrote to Dr. Harrington stating "...Dr. Potter was director of teacher education. As such, he was responsible for the teacher education program." Hatch contends the second statement is merely a reiteration of the first, clouded in bureaucratic language and the refusal to accept responsibility. Dr. Harrington, in whose hands the matter has been placed, said that his position does not give him the power to arbitrarily change a grade given by a professor, nor does he have the Continued on Page 8 Page 8—CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, January 17, 1974 Oil companies are fueling around Is our oil crisis a fraud? by John S. Knight Detroit Free Press In discussing the energy crisis I dismissed as "nonsense" Ralph Nader's statement that short­ ages were "orchestrated for political and economic benefit by the oil industry and that it chose to place the country in a short-term energy scare to gain dividends." It now appears that I was wrong, or at least partially wrong. I had overlooked "Oil - The Created Crisis," a three part series by two outstanding inves­ tigative reporters - Donald Barlett and James B. Steele - which appeared in the Philadel­ phia Inquirer last July. That was the period when independent gasoline dealers were being forced to close their stations, and major refining companies limited the amount of gasoline a motorist could buy. The Philadelphia Inquirer want­ ed to know why. IN ABRIDGEMENT repor­ ters Barlett and Steele uncover­ ed these facts: (1) American oil companies some years ago made deliberate, long-term policy decisions to sharply expand operations in foreign countries to meet spiral- ing demands for oil products in Europe and Asia. (2) The Nixon administration failed to lift oil import restric­ tions after taking office in 1969, and gave assurances last winter that there were no oil supply problems. (3) At the same time American oil companies with worldwide operations were telling their customers at home to cut back on consumption, they were urging their customers in Europe and Asia to buy more oil products. [4] The American taxpayer is subsidizing the sale of petroleum abroad through a variety of tax allowances and benefits granted to American oil companies. (5) Contrary to the claims of the oil industry and the govern­ ment that last summer's gasoline shortge was caused by an energy-guzzling American public and unreasonable demands by the environmentalists, it was created through default and administrative bungling by the oil companies and the federal government. (6) Late last spring, the oil industry launched a massive advertising campaign designed ' to make the American consumer Hatch case remains unsettled Continued from Page 7 power to waive the September Experiences as a required course for the Hatches. He claims that a "thorough investigation" has been conducted, and that the results show the entire matter to be nothing more than a problem in communication. He added that the Hatches had been given what he considered to be a fair method for resolving the matter (attending four additional class sessions) by the education department, and that the option was still open to them Hatch wrote to Harrington, stating that the solution was unfair because the missed sessions were the result of an unethical act by Dr. Westgaard. Dr. Harrington has replied that he had received two letters from students who had attended the same September Experience and that their recollections of the week in question "support fully the information I have received from the college staff members involved in the case. The letters have added nothing to what I already knew." He would not tell the Crier who wrote those letters, nor would he relate what their exact descriptions of the week were, saying that the authors had asked for confidential treatment of their letters. The Crier contacted some students of the September Experience and obtained copies of letters they mailed to Dr. Harrington. All letters state that on Tuesday, Drs. Westgaard and Chan-nui announced to the students that there would be a change in plans and that classes would be held that week. One letter states that on Thursday, Dr. Westgaard told his group that the only reason the classes were being held was because one couple had complained to Dr. Carlton, and then left for Alaska. This would have occured the same day that the Hatches had called Dr. Westgaard to explain. Returning to the department and Dr. Potter, the Crier was told by him that the "invest­ igation" had been done, and had satisfied the department that there had been no wrongdoing on the part of either Dr. Westgaard or Dr. Chan-nui, and that "they didn't take the time to notify anybody of their change in plans. Nobody else had difficulties." He added that Dr. Carlton, not he, was "directly responsible." Dr. Carlton felt differently about who had direct responsibility. He claimed that the problem was strictly between Dr. Westgaard and the Hatches, and that he was only attempting to act as an intermediary in settling the matter. He could not settle the dispute, thus the problem was referred upwards—he believed to Dr. Harrington where it remained. Thus, they have returned back to Dr. Westgaard, after over four months of appoint­ ments, letters, and harsh language tossed back and forth. The effect of this on Glenn Hatch has not been too substantial, according to him. He had not intended to student teach until next year anyway, and continues to serve as a teacher's assistant in Central's math department. Karen, however, had intended to student teach this quarter, and would have completed her Master's Degree this year. She has since quit school, having fallen out of the sychronized educational process of courses in the graduate program. They are asking that the matter of recommendations for certification by the State Board of Education "be left in the hands of our respective departments to be handled inde­ pendent of the education department." They also believe "a financial settlement would be acceptable."

Yet for every barrel (42 gallons) of oil products sold in the United States, the five largest companies (Exxon, Mobil Oil Corp., Texaco, Gulf Oil Corp. and Standard Oil of California) sold nearly two barrels in other countries. [7] The percentage of crude oil refined in the United States has steadily declined, and has stead­ ily risen in foreign countries. (8) The demand for crude oil has increased 110 percent in the United States over the last 20 years. In Japan the demand increase is 2,567 percent in West Germany, 1597 percent and in Italy, 1,079 percent. The oil companies were not slow in meeting this demand, and in fact pushed the sale of their products in Europe and Asia even as they were offering the American consumer advice on how to cut down on the use of gasoline and home heating oil. REPORTERS BARLETT and Steele dispute published statis­ tics on US oil reserves which indicate that our reserves will be depleted in "about 20 years." They say that "today, as in the past, the United States is in no danger of running out of oil."^ However, there is considerable disagreement among geologists as how much oil may be ultimately recoverable from US. A figure of 100 billion barrels is offered as conservative, al­ though some studies place the figure at several hundred billion barrels, excluding shale oil. The Philadelphia Inquirer ser­ ies is most critical of govern­ ment's role in failing to provide a national energy policy. In fact, we have not had a definitive policy since the first oil well was drilled more than 100 years ago. In the late 1960's,the Canadian government wanted to negotiate a North American energy policy, encourage exploration in Canada and ship more oil into the United States. But the United States wasn't interested. In 1970, President Nixon slapped restrictions on oil imports from Canada," our most secure source of foreign oil. Later, when the US could use more Canadian oil, the Canadians retaliated by clamping restric­ tions on oil exports to this country. ACCORDING TO BARLETT and Steele, our government does very little research of its own since it gets its advice from the oil companies. For instance, the Office of Emergency Prepared­ ness told the Senate slightly more than a year ago: "We don't see a shortage in fuel oili and we . don't see a shortage in other products either." In other words, the government people couldn't predict a fuel oil shortage three months in advance. It is evident from the Philadel­ phia Inquirer's studies that the American people and at least one editor have been conned into believing a lot of things about oil and gasoline shortages that just aren't so. If you would like to know more about this fascinating subject which touches our personal lives so directly, write to the Philadel­ phia Inquirer, c/o Post Office Box 8255, Philadelphia, Pa., 19101, for a reprint of the Barlett and Steele studies. Unfortunately, shortages in petroleum products do exist because the Arabs are playing their trump carci as an economic and political weapon. Everyting else falls into the category of "what might have been." Unless Dr. Kissinger can rescue us, that's cold comfort for the wintry days ahead.

Steve Haas, new chairman of Central's Political Affairs Commission (PAC), serves as a link between stu­ dents and the Washington State Legislature. . Haas will provide students with copies of any given bill, give the pros and cons of a bill, tell you who is supporting or oppos­ ing it and be the means for more effective action concerning any issue. He can also help anyone in­ terested in lobbying in Olympia. Many bills of special concern to students will be considered by the state legislature in session starting Jan. 14. House Bill No. 1166 provides for the legalization of the "private possession by any Shedding clothes becomes pastime Central's 17 degree below zero weather isn't something that would facilitate the latest college fad-streaking, running around in the nude. At the University of Maryland (UM) at College Park this pastime has become particularly evident, although according to the campus police chief only one nude runner has been arrested so far this year. The runner was charged with assault and dis­ orderly conduct after hitting a resident director who tried to make him go inside. The record for mass running in the nude was set at UM by about 125 sprinters, mostly male, who circulated a dining hall while spectators urged them on with shouts, music and firecrackers. A group of coeds claim they held the most bizarre nude event, a mock wedding in which the participants wore only hats and headdresses. One student claims he started the nude activities by taking off his pants in front of a girl's dormitory. "It wasn't premeditated," he notes.

A bill presently on the docket will raise tuition per credit hour, with the 15-hour student paying approximately the same amount as he does now. According to Haas this is a "fair bill", and the PAC will be supporting it. Haas is interested in forming a student lobby. Washington State has a total college enrollment of approximately 100,000 students, possibly the only faction of this size that does not have a lobby in Olympia. There are many bills coming before the legislature concerning funds to be given to state schools. These are of special im­ portance to students and the PAC. The PAC is working against the reduction-in-force plan for Central and has sugges­ tions for concerned students. A collective bargaining bill, which would in effect, unionize faculty, will also be before the state legislature. There will be a lecture about this on campus today. Haas is also working on the possibility of arranging for a student working extensively on a bill to receive credit through the Political Science department for his work.

Open one soon. National Bank of Commerce Member F.D.l.C. Instructor offers new course views on feminist movement Dr. Marie Madison One of the first courses offered by Central that focuses ex­ clusively on the women's move­ ment is being offered this quarter through the continuing education program. The two credit class being offered on the Yakima Valley Community college campus is entitled, "Women in Business: Feminist Perspectives." "There is a feminist movement going on across the nation," says Dr. Marie Madison, an associate professor of the Business Ed­ ucation and Administrative Man­ agement Department, who is instructing the class. "But Central has not knitted into this....as you know we don't have a women's studies program here, though many colleges a- cross the nation do," continued the associate professor. She does however, credit a number of departments within the college for including topics of the feminist movement in class discussions and lectures. Teaching the class with mone­ tary compensation, Dr. Madison formally describes the class as, "An open forum seminar for persons desiring a broader a- wareness and a deeper insight into present-day trends and possibilities for the advancement of women in the world of work." She welcomes men to the class and says she .would be glad to teach the class on campus if enough interest was shown. Shuffling through dozens of magazine articles, books and reports Dr. Madison said, "prac­ tically every piece of literature today contains some reference to the women's movement." Through exposure to the dif­ ferent literature on the subject the instructor hopes her students will be "exposed to the many different flavors of the feminist movement." "The main thrust oi the course is an awareness oi the rami­ fications of the feminist move­ ment," explained the associate professor. She said one of the rami­ fications of' the women's move­ ment was that "increased aware­ ness of discrimination can bring about a greater sensitivity to hurt." "One girl came into my office and was really down in the dumps because a professor had really put down women in a lecture." The instryctor said that as a result of the knowledge the girl had, she took the comment as a put down, where another girl's response might have been, "Wasn't that a cute comment." Dr. Madison said her class was also trying to look at some of the fallacies surrounding the fem­ inist movement. As an example she said there was a fallacy in the work world that "all women in management are bossy. Well this simply isn't true, there's scientific evidence that completely disputes this fallacy." Several times in her interview with the Crier, Dr. Madison emphasized that there was a lot of fear and apprehension about the women's movement by both men and women because they did not understand what the move­ ment was all about. "Initially the feminist move­ ment was radical and that was probably good. But now it penetrates all factions of soc­ iety." She attributes much of this penetration to legislation. She said the radical tone the movement took on at first has also caused apprehension on the part of many people. "Now many women are active in the movement and are encour­ aging women to discover their possibilities, but they are not very visible." The business instructor said if a person were to ask these women if they were "women's libbers" they would probably say no. She said, through government legislation women had made great strides in the area of job discrimination. "We need to get away from the idea that there are women's jobs and men's jobs," she explained. Dr. Madison, who has hired a male office assistant, hopes the idea of job stereotypes is on the way out. "Qualifications are the most important thing to consider," said the college teacher. Dr. Madison said that women should not be hired just because they are women when they are not wualified. She said that this would not be helpful to women at all. The instructor pointed to a study in the "U.S. News and World Reporter" that showed while 99 per cent of the secretar­ ial positions are held by women, only 9 per cent of the lawyers are women. The statistics also showed that 96 per cent of all nurses were women while only 9 per cent of the doctors were women. It was noted by Dr. Madison that it was often difficult to get women to apply for jobs that traditionally nave been men's jobs. "As you know Central is an Equal Opportunity Employer and there is a position open for a new dean, yet I doubt that there will be very many women apply," she said. "Surveys show that women do not apply for or are not interes­ ted in high level mamagerial jobs." Dr. Madison also expects changes in family roles as a result of the feminist movement. She says that it's not really fair for the husband to have to pay alimony, any more than the wife. She would like to see less stereotyping of family chores,. Survey shows sophomores lead drop-outs The vast majority of students who have left Central did. so either to enroll at another insti­ tution, or for financial reasons, according to a survey conducted early last year by college admin­ istrators. Of 484 questionnaires returned by departed students, or "drop outs" as they were termed in a report of the survey's results, 123 or 46 per cent left Central to attend another college. Of that number, 97 students entered either Washington State University or the University of SALE Sweaters, Turtlenecks, Wool Cardigans.

Dr. Bruce Teets became a charter member of the new society while attending a Modern Language Association Convention in Chicago. Teets also was a panel member for a convention seminar dealing with Conrad. It was learned in Chicago that an annotated bibliography of the writings about Conrad co-authored by Teets has been sold out and will be reprinted soon. Teets, in addition, was a seminar participant in Chicago for a program dealing with thesis in English and American literature from 1894 to 1971. Among the books discussed were some including masters' thesis produced by students at Central. Page 10 —CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, January 17, 1974 17 WELCOME BACK Stop In And Visit. J & J JEWELERS in the plaza Washington. Most of the remain­ ing students entered either four- year or two-year colleges within the state. The second most prevalent reason for students leaving Cen­ tral was financial considerations. Thirty-five per cent gave that as the motivating force behind their departure. The highest amount of attri­ tion occured at the sophomore level, with 33 per cent of the "drop-outs" leaving at that time. The study, conducted by the college's Testing and Evaluative Services, has also revealed that while fewer women than men transfer to Central from other schools, once here, the women are more likely to stay than men. The report continues to state, "More males dropped out of school because of academic diffi­ culty, 16 per cent of the male group as compared to seven per cent of the female group." Marriage seemed to affect womens' education more than men. The report states that 17 per cent of the female drop-outs left Central due to marriage, while the same was true for only four per cent of the males. An additional five per cent of the women said that they left school "because they (1) trans­ ferred-with their husbands who had either finished school or gone on to graduate school elsewhere, or (2) were taking care of children. Only one male reported dropping out because of family responsibilities." The report concluded the following: 1. Central loses ap­ proximately one-half of its drop- • outs to other institutions, prob­ ably due to the school's limita­ tions in program and course diversity. 2. More women than men are dropping out of college because of marital responsi­ bilities. rf Ii iri i. !! ri! i H = TENANTS UNION An open board meeting of the Tenants Union will be held on Saturday, wJan. 19th in the Grupe - Conference Center from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Plans for the upcoming legislative session will be discussed.

This article deals with the "how-to" of small claims court and next week's feature-will contain the personal experiences in small claims court of the author and others. Any citizen can sue in small claims court for a filing fee of one dollar, and there's only a few qualifications. Two qualifications are that neither side is allowed to have an attorney appear with him in court and a person must sue for an amount under $300. Sometime in their lives most anyone has en­ countered somebody that needed suing. But for the amount of money involved it just didn't seem worth hiring the attorney. As a result the person is out their money and the huckster continues to cheat others. Small go to the Kittitas County Court House to the office of the traffic court judge. The Legal Services Bulletin states, "You'll have to know the name of the defendent, his address and the amount you want to collect. A fee of one dollar is charged and a court date is set." The court clerk for small claims at the court house stated that the wait for a court date is about one month. Court is held on Mondays. The first question the clerk will ask is, "Is the amount under $300?" If the amount is over that it must be either lowered to an amount under the $300 or transfered to Superior Court where lawyers are generally required and court procedures are formal. A second question will probably be, "Did the action take place in this district?" If it takes place in. another justice court district you must file in that district. The clerk can provide information on- this. Also, according to D. Roger Reed of the claims court is a type of "do-it-yourself - justice.

It is being directed by Dr. Roland Shook, Assistant professor of biological science at Central. Four Central students are do­ ing the work. Sophomores David Mack and Dennis Hicks and senior Carl Barrentine live to­ gether in Ellensburg and share their home with a pet hawk. . Barrentine recently caught a Snowy Owl that had migrated from the Arctic tundra. He and his roommates made the capture in the nearby Columbia Basin. The capture was considered unusual because the owls move south only every four to five years when their food supply has reached a low cycle in population. They used a technique called a dig-in to make the capture. The . first attempt failed. Because the ground is hard, Barrentine modi­ fied the dig-in technique some­ what. He laid on the ground and pull­ ed his coat up over his face to hide himself as much as possible. A tethered pigeon was used as a decoy. The o,wl swooped in for the pigeon, killed it and escaped without becoming entagled in the tethers as was planned. Frustrated at not making the rare capture, the students had to improvise once more. Barrentine grabbed another pigeon and held a piece of sage brush in front of himself and wiggled the pigeon above it. The owl once again fell for the trap., When the owl made contact with the pigeon, Barrentine grabbed the owl's leg. They brought it in for inspection and banding. It was dusted for para­ sites, fed well and released. Barrentine is conducting a sparrow hawk banding project during graduate study this year. Mack is making a behavioral study of shrikes, a small bird of prey. Hicks is doing research on parasites of owls and hawks. Ted Smith, the fourth student under Dr. Shook, .has a study go­ ing of a colony of Great Blue Herons. Dr. Shook, who holds a federal license for such work, said there are many reasons for banding birds. "It is primarily for getting an accurate record of an indivi­ dual bird." Longevity and travel or migra­ tion can be recorded and used in conjunction with information gathered from other birds of the same type in order to learn some­ thing about the lives of that specie of bird. Migratory waterfowl is best suited for these studies because they move from north to south and back again each year. It is about these birds that the most information is obtained. Dr. Shook said bird popula­ tions can be estimated quite accurately through the informa­ tion gathered from banded birds. The students and Dr. Shook are working only with birds of prey. The state game depart­ ment handles game birds. He said Kittitas County is exceptional for bird study be­ cause it is close to several differ­ ent types of habitat. He mentioned the Columbia Basin as one area. The terrain graduates from the Basin im­ mediately into sage brush pro­ viding a different type of habitat. The sage brush region gives way to dry forest, and on the west side of the Cascades there is wet forest. The last habitat is the coastal terrain where the Pacific Ocean meets land. Dr. Shook said there are about 200 species of birds within traveling distance of Ellensburg. There are approximately 8600 species of birds in the world. Dr. Shook is conducting a non­ technical "Beginning Birding" class on campus winter quarter for one credit. The class will meet from 7 to 9 p.m. in Dean 262. There will be two Saturday field trips for bird observation. Hoeschen's gallery display of drawings to end today The first in a series of winter shows at the Fine Arts Gallery of Central continues through tomorrow with a photographic exhibit to follow. The gallery currently is showing drawings by Seattle artist Louise Hoeschen. On the sequential drawings, splashes of water-color are superimposed to emphasize action and emotion. Following the Hoeschen exhibit, original prints by American photographer Edward Weston will be displayed for two weeks. Viewing of the Weston work will begin on Monday, Jan. 21. Ms. Hoeschen teaches at North Seattle Community College. She received a bachelor's degree in art and a master's degree in drawirlg from Central before attending WSU where she was given a master of fine arts degree in painting. Her work has been exhibited in the Seattle Art Museum Pavilion, the Minnesota Museum of Art, Southwest Texas State University, and the DeAndreis Gallery of St. John's University.' She also has shown at the Cheney-Cowles Museum in Spokane, Everett Art Association and the Portland Art Museum. Central's Fine Arts Gallery is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

Butkovich later injured his elbow and lost the match to the Canadian freshman. [Photo by Gonzales] by Rafael Gonzales sports editor The Wildcat hoopers had a tough time of it on the road last week, as they dropped two games to run their season mark to 8-4. The hapless cagers got off on the wrong foot Friday by dropp­ ing a 75-50 decision to the Clansmen of Simon Fraser and followed it with a 61-53 loss to the Vikings of Western on Satur­ day night. N Friday night, Central had their problems in the first half as they were able to manage only 18 points to the Canadian team's 37. The 'Cats also had first half problems in the Chico Tourna­ ment, where they were able to manage only one win. "We came back pretty well in the second half and were within eight at one time, 48-40, but then we hit on a few problems with the Canadian officiating," head coach Dean Nicholson commented. /'They (the officials) were about as bad as we were. The officiating was very bad. We've gone up "there two years and shot only five free throws." "We broke Les Wyatt loose on the baseline once and he really took a shot and was called for charging. It was one of the worst calls of the night," the coach stated. The 'Cats were only able to put in 24 of 64 shots from the field, and were simply unable to hit the bucket according to Nicholson. The Clansmen poured through 32 of 66 attempts from the field. Ellensburg freshman Les Wyatt led the 'Cat scorers in the NAIA District I loss with 14 and Ned Delmore added 10 in the losing cause. Steve Page put in eight points. Rick Kazanowski, a 6-7 for­ ward, led the Canadians with 18 points. Jim Ciccone added 16 for the Clansmen, John Olynyk 14 and Bryan Stewart 11. The next night, Central lost a 10-1 lead and went on to lose an EvCo conference tilt 61-53 to the Vikings of Western in Belling- ham. After they seized the early lead, the 'Cats were able to stay in the lead for most of the half, although some ball handling miscues helped the hosts to tighten the score. The Vikings finally caught up with the Central club when, with 2:47 left in the half and the score knotted at 29-all, Dick Bissell dropped in a hook to put the Vikes ahead to stay. Taking the lead, the hosts stepped out to a 35-29 halftime advantage and were never be­ hind again.. After having some shooting problems in the first period, Western got hot and ended up with 24 of 45 shots in the hoop. Despite their hot shooting from the field, the winners were never able to completely dominate the contest, with their eight-point final margin their biggest lead of the night. "We played a bit better against Western, but we are still not playing as well as we should," commented Nicholson. Les Wyatt led the 'Cat scorers again, this time with 20 points. He dropped in 13 of his total in the first half. He was the lone Central eager in double figures. Tim Sandberg garnered eight points for the 'Cats.. Guard Chuck Price led West­ ern with 16 points and Dick Bissell added 13 to the more balanced Viking totals. "We, have our work cut out for us this week when we meet Eastern," noted the Central cage mentor. "They are tough and are currently leading the league." Last Friday the Eagles pushed the Oregon Tech Owls out of the EvCo league lead by edging them 61-60. The Eastern Eagles will face the Cats Friday, with Eastern Oregon visiting Satur­ day. Ski Lift KCWS, the Central radio station, has initiat­ ed a new service known as the KCWS Ski Lift, announced J.P. Leghorn, station spokesman. The idea of the pro­ gram is to encourage car pools for local skiers by providing a place for those skiers who have cars to contact skiers without cars. The pro­ gram will encourage the formation of car pools to get to and from the local ski areas on weekends. A box has been set up outside the KCWS stu­ dio located in the SUB lounge adjacent to the bookstore so prospective drivers or riders can leave their names and phone numbers. The names and num­ bers are then aired on the college radio station on Thursday and Friday at 7:45 a.m. and 4:45 p.m. Central matmen win three, drop two by Clint Anderson sports writer Winning 3 and losing 2 on their recent road trip, the Central wrestlers exercised their domin­ ance over the Oregon schoolis. The 'Cats however couldn't garn­ er a win in their competition with the Golden State institutions at the Oregon Tech Tournament in Kalamath Falls last weekend. In the first day of the weekend tournament the 'Cat grapplers handled the Southern Oregon Red Raiders 18-15 before bowing to San Jose State 27-21. In the Sourthern Oregon match the 'Cat's fell behind 12-0 before John Burkholder, Central 150 pounder, decisioned Terry Thomas 12-1. Thomas was last year's Evergreen Conference Champion. Burkholder's team­ mates quickly adopted his winn­ ing style as Central dominated the following four matches. At 158, Wildcat Dewey Parish manhandled his opponent 15-4, and Dan Older decisioned Jim Manneneach 10-1 cutting the Red Raider lead to 12-11. Rich Burkholder, wrestling in the 177 pound class for the 'Cat's, boost­ ed his team into the lead on a major decision over Dave Gille­ spie, 11-0. Central's Rocky Isley then added frosting to the cake, defeating Jerry Stidham, last years second runner-up in the NAIA National Meet, 5-0. In the final match, Ned Nelson suc­ cumbed to SOC heavyweight Charley Taylor, 6-3. Quickly thereafter the Wild­ cats were on the mat again, facing San Jose State. Central came up on the short end of a 27-21 decision. San Jose racked up 17 of their team points in the first four matches before John Burkholder once again blazed the way crunching San Jose's George Jaeger 14-4 for a four point major decision. Dewey Parish then battled Jim Niskanen to a 9-9 tie. Dan Older took a close win over Dean Prescott 7-6. Rich Burk­ holder and Rockey Isley each won by forfeit, knotting the team score at 21. In the final match Central's Ned Nelson found his shoulders against the mat in 3:20, choking the Wildcats hope for another victory. Saturday the Wildcats tackled Eastern Oregon College at 11:00 a.m., coming away with a con­ vincing 37-8 win. The Central lightweights add­ ed some team scoring power when 118 pounder Mark Arima won by forfeit, Lee Reichert won by decision, 5-0, and Gene Viernes quickly pinned his op­ ponent to set the scoring pace at 14-2. Wildcat 142 pounder Ben Butkovich dropped a close 4-2 decision to George Waterlund before John Burkholder pounded Eastern Oregon's Mike Engle- gau, 9-0. In the following match1 Dewey Parish completely mas­ tered his foe for a 15-1 victory. At 167 pounds Dan Older duti­ fully nailed Eastern Oregon's Randy Lewellyn to' the mat for six more team points and a 27-5 lead. Wildcat Rich Burkholder was edged 5-4 before Rocky Isley came on strong with a pin and Ned Nelson gained a major decision to end the scoring. At 1:00 the 'Cat's took on Oregon Tech and smashed the Owls 42-6. Gene Viernes, John Burkholder, Dewey Parish, Dan Older and Ned Nelson all collect­ ed pins in the Wildcat's rout. In Central's third match of the day, at 3:00, the Wildcats lost out to a tough Sacramento State squad, 23-20. The first six matches found Central behind 14-11. In the seventh match, at 167 pounds, Dan Older recorded his third pin of the day, squelching Rod Harvey to the canvas in 3:15. Older's pin tossed his Wildcats into the lead by three. Rich Burk­ holder then dropped a 5-3 decision but Rocky Isley made up the difference with a 4-3 win, maintaining the 'Cat's three point edge. In the final and deciding match, Ned Nelson, while leading in the final period, sunk a leg in a little too deep on Sacramento State's 325 pound Bruce Fowler and suffered the consequences the deciding pin. Head wrestling mentor, Eric Beardsley felt his team had the potential to defeat either of the California schools if they had been fresh. Each time the southern schools had full rest while the Cat's were just coming off a previous match. Beardsley's Wildcat grapplers, currently rated second nationally in the NAIA, found out alot about themselves in their five matches in two days. "We know we're going to have to work harder," explained Beardsley. The Central wrestling coach is expecting bigger things from his team in the future with the return of nationally ranked Greg Gowens and Kit Shaw. Willie Guy, 'Cat 118 pounder, missed the Oregon trip because he failed to make weight. Dan Older, junior college transfer from Highline, was named one of the tournaments outstanding wrestlers on the strength of his three pins, one over last year's EvCo champ, Jerry Reaves. This weekend the Central grapplers will face WSU and Eastern Washington, both on the road. Beardsley considers WSU and Eastern to have much im­ proved teams over last year, but hopes to have his own squad bolstered up by the return of either Gowens or Shaw at 142 and he is also counting on Guy getting back down to 118 pounds. Tankers host UPS in dual meet tonight Thursday, January 17* 1974 —CAMPUS CRIER— Page 15 Field house floor nears completion Central's Wildcat swimmers return to action for the first time in over a month as they play host to a strong University of Puget Sound swim team, tonight at 7:00 in the Nicholson pool. The Loggers, eighth-ranked in the NCAA, will be sporting two strong distance swimmers in John Sheekly and Morey Rude, plus a school record-holding diver. Central, always noted for finishing in the NAIA top-ten standings, is hoping to counter balance that attack with some strength of its own, according to Bob Gregson, 'Cat swim coach. Leading the Wildcat team into action are All-American Joe White in the breast stroke events, distance swimmer Craig Brown, Mike Miller in the butterfly and diver Dave Cotton. Local ski area to open Saturday Sun East, a local ski area located 12 miles north of Ellens- burg on Reecer Creek, will open officially for the first time this season on Saturday, according to Gary Rennemo, area director. The ski area has two handle- rope tows to get to the top of the 1,000 foot slope, a geodesic dome for a warming lodge and lighting for night skiing. The corporation plans to open their night skiing Saturday also. They plan to open the facility Tuesday through Friday from noon until 10 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 9 a.m. until 10 p.m. "Our times may change as the season progresses," Ren­ nemo noted. The group recently purchased two snow-making machines to add to the available snow cover, he further commented. Detailed maps are available in the SUB Rental Shop, along with ski school brochures detailing instruction and facilities. The cost for ah all-day lift ticket will be three dollars, with an additional three dollar charge for a night ticket. No rental facilities are available at the ski area, warned the area manager. In previous competition be­ tween the schools, dating back to 1963, UPS has savored 12 victor­ ies to Central's 11. "This meet looks like it could go down to the final event," coach Gregson said. "We are matched very closely with UPS, so there should be many exciting swims." Gregson pointed out that the freshmen recruits will be repre­ senting Central for the first time in dual meet competition. Some of the freshmen expected to show well are Dick Green, back stroke events Ed Walsted, sprints Jerry White, breast stroke and individual medley Joe Terhaar, back stroke and Bill Campbell and Gary Allison, divers. Following the meet with UPS, the Wildcats will travel to Oregon for a tri-meet against host Lewis & Clark, Portland State and Portland Community College on Friday. The team then travels to Tacoma to represent Central in an AAU invitational slated for Saturday and Sunday. , , .• tff Kittens win openers at home by Jackie Humphries sports writer Central's womens' basketball team defeated Flathead Valley Community College 50-35 and the University of Washington 49-40 in Nicholson Pavilion Saturday. There was balanced scoring in the Flathead game. Julie Hoff led the scoring with 13 points, followed by Anne Bogardus with 10. Central held a half-time lead of 30-19 and with a strong zone defense the hoopsters held Flat­ head Valley's scoring to only 11 field goals. Central's first effort was some­ what hampered when the kittens committed 26 fouls. The afternoon game against the U of W was a close contest. The U of W had a man-to-man defense which contained Central to only 7 points the first quarter. The team adjusted in the second quarter when the Central guards made some good steals and broke the game open to lead at half-time 22-18. High scorers for Central were Mary Flint 13 points, Marie Sather 9 points and Brenda Carter 8 points. Quick steals and good defense were the keys to the Saturday successes. Next Saturday's action begins at 10 a.m. the Kittens take on Seattle Pacific College. Spectators are welcome, admission is free. Anyone happening to wander into Nicholson Pavilion over the last feM mbnths might have noticed a sign posted on several of the doors leading into a large cement-floored gym that read, "Field House closed to ALL PEOPLE!!! Workmen using equipment." The signs are still posted and the field house construction, ori­ ginally slated for completion in the middle of October, is finally coming to an end. The initial work on the field house began last summer after Central was allocated $100,000 from the stale to cover the entire construction. That money has gone towards the excavation of the area, the sub-floor work and the final coatings on the floor. The first step of the construc­ tion was the removal of the dirt floor that covered the field house and replacing it with several layers of gravel. The next process involved placing a plastic vapor barrier over the gravel to prevent moisture from seeping through. Finally, a five inch layer of cement was laid. The concrete caused all the problems and delays when it didn't cure as fast as expected. So it wasn't until Christmas vacation that the problem was VSS/Vjf •VM*tfW:':'- CO TAKE A SHOT' was what Central teammates encouraged Gene Viernes [left] to do during his free style match with UBC frosh John Cipolato in the 134-lb class.

According to' Stan Sorenson, chairman of the departmental building committee, the floor will consist of a substance called pro- turf, 3/8 inches in depth. The pro-turf will be covered by a pro­ tective plastic layer and then lin­ ed for intramural basketball, volleyball and tennis. The actual pouring^ of the pro-turf got underway Jan. 9th with the new completion dead­ line set for Jan. 26th. "Rules and regulations towards priorities and use of the field house are being established," Orenson said. *&he moftCH OF Dimes THE PLEASURE of o special friendship awaits you thru DISCOVERY, the fastest growing nonprofit, non* sectarian people-meeting service in the Northwest.
