CINTKAl WASHINGTON STATE COlllGI rier January 24, 1974 Vol.47 No. 13 J Art department reverses decision on Indian exhibi IlilSlill iHlillili llltiifllt TT" • } " A 1 , , What is discrimination? What is reverse discrimination? What is racism? These questions were raised here recently by some members of the Art Department's faculty who are of the opinion that the Contemporary Indian Art Exhi­ bit, created by the Ethnic Studies Program, is discrimina­ tory, as the exhibit is open only to "All North American Indians." At its Jan. 9 meeting, the Art Department faculty passed, by five to two with four abstentions, a rcommendation to the Gallery Committee to "withdraw all support of the Indian Art Show and that the Indian Art Show not be held in the Fine Arts Gallery because it is illegal and immoral for the Art Department to support any form of racial discrimination as passed by the Board of Trustees on November 12, 1971 in the Human Rights Policy (Resolution No. 71-13) which states that it shall be the policy of the Board of Trustees... to prohibit discrimination based on race, creed, ethnic origin or sex. This prohibition applies to all aspects of the college's functions, program and activi­ ties, the utilization of its facilities and the official use of the college's name." When he learned of the recommendation, Alex Kuo, dir­ ector of the Ethnic Studies Program, wrote to Larry Omo, chief of Higher Education Branch Office of Civil Rights asking for ns Fired faculty interview • • • • • • page 6 i i AV i & w. 1 w. w I Police in questioned search page 8 'Cats dump league leaders 0 . 0 • • # page 14 Photo feature page 5 % M % W I i p | I I an opinion. As of Monday, Jan. 21 Kuo had received no reply from Omo. The motion was summarily withdrawn at the Wednesday Jan. 16 meeting of the Art Department faculty. George Stillman, Chairman of the Art Department, said at that time the recommendation had not been passed by a "real majority," as some faculty members had been absent when the vote was taken. There are 17 voting members of the faculty and only five had voted for the recommen­ dation. Stillman said also that such recommendations are never voted on by the department concerning any exhibit that has been scheduled. Many felt that the question had not been squarely answered by Stillman, and the suspicion was voiced that someone outside the department had told the department to "cool it." Stillman said that although there had been no meeting concerning the matter, either formal or informal, apparently the matter had been discussed "in the Coffee Lounge" and the "educational process" had appar­ ently continued during these discussions as it had been decided to drop the recommenda­ tion. Stillman denied that anyone outside the department had told the department to drop the recommendation. John B. Housley, dean of arts and humanities, said that he had been aware of the situation, as he likes to "keep abreast of things," and said that he was pleased the recommendation had been drop­ ped but he had no way influenced that decision and he considered the matter to be closed. When asked by the Crier for his opinion as to whether or not the Indian Art Exhibit constitu­ ted illegal or immoral discrimina­ tion, Steve Milam, the school's assistant attorney general, was at first reluctant to comment, saying that as the recommenda­ tion had been withdrawn, any opinion of his would be merely academic." However, Milam fi­ nally did agree to comment, and on Jan. 18 sent a copy of his opinion which cites the Washing­ ton State Human Rights Com­ mission Policy and Recommenda­ tions on Exclusionary Club as well as the case of DeFunis V. Odegard. Milam's opinion reads as fol­ lows: "...It is my opinion that the Contemporary Indian Art Exhi­ bit and the limitation of partici­ pants to North Americah Indians does not violate the Washington State nor United States Consti­ tutions. The purpose of this activity clearly appears to be that of perpetuating the North American Indian culture and fostering pride in the heritage of North American Indians and has a membership limited to persons of-North American Indian origin. It also appears to be the purpose of such an exhibit to alleviate inequality rather than promote or enhance it. Such action is in keeping with the Affirmative Action Policy and Human Rights Policy of Central in that this is a governmental action which, al­ though involving a racial or ethnic classification is aimed at achieving factual as well as theoretical equality between the calsses involved. Such an action does not constitute discrimina­ tion nor unconstitutional action." The Contemporary Indian Art Exhibit is scheduled for Feb. 20.
Page 2 —CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, January 24,1974 Mock legislature set for Spring PoliSci project Students from two and four year colleges and universities throughout Washington State will be on the Central campus for a mock mini-legislature March 28-31. The mock legislature will be used to present the students' views on current state issues plus act as an educational exper­ ience. The mock session was origin­ ated by John Presson and Cal Marschall of the Political Action Committee in conjunction with Central's Political Science De­ partment. Between 200 and 400 students from most of the public and private colleges in the state are expected to be in attendance. Each school's delegation will be assigned one or more legislative districts and individual delegates will take posts on various committees. All state legislators have been invited to attend the three day convention. In addition, invi­ tations have been extended to Gov. Dan Evans and to US Senator Warren Magnuson. It is hoped that the government lead­ ers would be able to take a reading of the tone and temper- ment of college students from their attendance at the sessions. The legislative bills that are passed at the mock legislature will be submitted to the state legislature at their next session, remarked Larry Brown, who, is a \ member of the organizing group. Brown said that to organize the session a political science class has been set up with the assistance of Dr. Yee of the political science division. These students are directly organizing the event. Those Central students who might be interested in attending the session are urged to sign up in the ASC office in the SUB or attend the organizational meet­ ings held on Thursdays at 7 p.m. in the conference room of the ASC office. Brown said that, as of this time, no charge is antici­ pated for Central students who wish to attend the sessions. Those delegates from off-campus will be charged $19 for college food and housing. Weston's prints on display here Original prints by famed American photographer Edward Weston wil be on display in the Fine Arts Gallery during the weeks of Jan. 21 through Feb. 1. Noted for his sharp lines and clarity of forms, Weston, who died in 1958, was the first photographer to receive a Guggenheim Fellowship. His reputation as a photographer led to shows in major American, Mexican and European galleries. Weston sought to emphasize vitality as he photographed organic shapes. He was one of the first photographers to use the glossy photo finish. He believed that the glossy finish minimized competition between paper textures and photographic subjects, letting perfections and flaws of his camera work show more clearly. Gallery viewing of Weston's prints will be from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. Grievance positions open now The newly authorized Academic Grievance Committee needs students to serve on committee positions. Five positions are open, according to Bob Atwell, ASC administrative vice-president. Students interested are urged to obtain application forms as soon as possible from the ASC office. The committee is -designed to resolve disputes arising between students and professors. Need for ASL revision seen The ASL agreed at its regular Monday night meeting that there is need for revision of the legislature's structure. Legislators reacted to accusa­ tions that they are ineffective in bringing about meaningful changes that would affect the students they represent by de­ signing a committee to study possible revision of the ASL. The legislators also heard a A PERFECT BLEND OF FORM AND FUNCTION The Beogram 3000 Turntable *265 Rosewood base, cover and B & O SP-12 A Cartridge included From STEREO REVIEW. Jan.

Pear! 962-2830 report on possible redisricting of the ASL. Under present rules there are 20 legislators, 10 to provide for the needs of off- campus students and an equal number for representation of students living on campus. These legislators have no specific con­ stituents, however, and the study will be made in an attempt to make the ASL more accessible to those represented. According to some of the student law­ makers if each legislator had a specific constituency it would be easier for students and legis­ lators to communicate. Also discussed at the meeting was the tuition increase for state colleges which can be expected to be implemented in the fall of 1975 or earlier. The increase will be based on a charge per credit hour and will come in the amount of $7.50 for full time students who are residents of Washington. Mall construction to begin Construction will begin this summer on a new shopping mall at the present location of Zittings Family Center, 500 E. Mt. View in Ellensburg. Space for 28 to 40 stores will be leased by the Wenatchee based Zittings & Sons, Inc. The firm presently has stores in Omak, Othello, Wenatchee and Ellensburg. The manager of Zittings in Ellensburg feels the town can support such a venture, saying, "A lot of residents now drive out of town to get things to fill their individual needs and wants." . Ski races set for this Sunday Ski competition for recreational skiers is slated for this Sunday at Snoqualmie Summit. The Doral Citizen Race Series in the Pacific Northwest is jointly sponsored by Doral and the US Ski Association and is open to amatuers over 21 years of age. Entrants must not hold a current race classification above Class C nor can they have lived at a winter sports resort for the last three years. In addition, they cannot have made their living on skis or have been a member of, or a candidate for the US ski team. According to Northwest Skinews Service a number of other competitions have also been scheduled for this season and divisional winners wil go on to national championships.

When will it end? UFWworkerscontinue picketing Picketing by the United Farm the boycott due to stories that it week, weather permitting. Construction of library half through completion The chairman of the library building committee, George Fad- enrecht, said that the library is about 45 per cent completed. The library, along with the anthropol­ ogy and sociology complexes, will be completed by Oct. 1, 1974. Fadenrecht, who "can only talk about the library building," said that the $4.8 million complex has been in the planning stages since 1964. "The new library is not in excess of current needs," Faden­ recht stressed. "A college library should be able to seat 25 per cent of the student body," he- added. The new library will be able to Workers Union (UFW) against the Ellensburg Safeway store entered its second year this month with another UFW infor­ mational picket against the local store last week. The Ellensburg picketing is an out-growth of the California lettuce strike and nationwide had ended, stated Riojas . . According to Riojas, the num- Inside the store, business bers involved in the picketing appeared to be going on as usual have varied from 28 in Jan. of last year to a summer time low of six to ten. Approximately 15 protesters were walking the picket line last week. The Friends of the Farm Workers boycott in the farm employes have attempted to picket once a unionization attempt headed by Ceasar Chavez. The Ellensburg protests start­ ed in January of 1973, according to Pedro Riojas, member of the Ellensburg Friends of the Farm Workers, sponsor of the picket­ ing. Nationwide, the strike and the resultant boycott has been going on since 1970. Riojas gave the aims of the picketing as an attempt to economically force the national store chain to buy only UFW with store manager Max Faris saying that it's "gone *n into its second year. We don't like it but we live with it." Faris ended by saying that the picketers are "a bunch of basical­ ly nice people." LoHoCo supports housing bill The Washington State Low Income Housing Coalition (LoHoCo) held an open board meeting in the Grupe Conference Center last Saturday. LoHoCo haVvested lettucefThe picteting voted to support House Bill 783, to reinforce the W"1C" would set statewide hous- is also set up union's demand for the use of union harvested grapes. He said that "Safeway is the largest chain of grocery stores in the nation, and that their accept­ ance of the union demands would benefit allfarm workers.".Riojas added that he believes one of the reasons Safeway has not given in on the union's demands is that some members of the chain's board of directors have financial interests in the striking fields. Another bone of contention between the union and the store is Safeway's purchase of Team­ sters Union produce, including lettuce. The Teamsters are ac­ cused of breaking an agreement ending the strike, thus hurting ing standards and force govern­ ment agencies to enforce these standards. In the event that the bill does not pass, LoHoCo decided to with rental agencies throughout the state. Rental agencies list houses for free for the landlord. However, they charge the con­ sumer to look at their listings. LoHoCo would like to research the problem and find a solution to the problem throughout the state. The development committee, headed by Pat Libbey, recom­ mended that the LoHoCo rede- submit suggested housing stand- fine its goals and objectives in ards to the State Board of Health. LoHoCo recommenda­ tions would not be enforcable by law but the standards may enable people to ask the govern­ ment why it is ignoring housing standards. The board also decided to work with members in Seattle to deal order to give the organization a sense of direction. "The board does not have a planned format," Libbey said. "LoHoCo hasn't said where they want to go." The development committee will meet in Olympia, Wash. Feb. 23 to redefine the goals of the coalition.

It was first sighted near the orbit of Jupiter. But as early as October, data received by the physics depart-' ment from the Smithsonian In­ stitute showed that the comet would not be nearly as bright as first estimate. Both the press and Dr. Ko­ houtek took the most optimistic views of how bright the comet would be. Unfortunately it was even less visible than the most pessimistic projections. Dr. Mitchell expressed sur­ prise that this comet received so much attention, when Bennett's comet of 1970 and Ikeya-Seki in 1965 were much larger, but got very little press coverage. Ikeya- Seki (named for the two Japan­ ese scientists who discovered it) was particularly spectacular. Dr. Mitchell explained that the brightness of comets is calculat­ ed by comparing them to comets which have followed the same orbit. Kohoutek was far less bright than any other comets which had followed a similar orbit.

Page 6 —CAMPtJS CRIER— Thursday, January 24,1974 Foreign language department loses faculty and program JHo-ChinYang In keeping with the Reduction in Force some faculty members have been notified that, they will be laid off at the end of this academic year. Among them are Ho-Chin Yang and Roger Winters. Ho-Chin Yang is the sole proprietor of Central's Chinese language and cultural pro­ gram which began and will end when he leaves. Yang said he believes that the program, which he said doubled in enrollment this year over last, was never given the chance to grow that it deserved. He said that smaller classes are necessary for teaching a foreign language effectively and the inclusion of a Chinese program here gives diversity to the Anglo-Saxon educational exper­ ience. "How can we ignore the 800 million people of the East?" he said. "The foreign language department fully supports the Chinese program," said Dr. Bilyeu, chairman of the department, "however, with the present funds available, the Chinese program could not be kept without doing irresparable harm to other programs within the depart­ ment." The initial proposal to include a Chinese program here came from the Council on Asian Studies, an interdisciplinary organization which acquired state innovative funds to set the program up. The foreign language department, although it had not initiated the original proposal, then acted in conjunction with the Council on Asian Studies to acquire the Chinese program. The program was taken in by the foreign language department where it will have lasted two years. A petition, carrying 600 signatures urging that the Chinese program be retained, brought no formal response, said Yang, from any of those to whom copies were given, including the governor, the state legislature and Drs. Brooks, Harrington and Bilyeu. "There's still a lot left, the basic college is still here," said Dr. Brooks, "The minor cutting has not altered the school. There are a lot of places calling themselves universities that don't have an Asian studies program." Brooks had been asked whether the college should rightfully call itself a university when programs like the Chinese program are being dropped due to the necessity of the Reduction in Force. "There are a lot of schools calling themselves universities that don't offer as much as we do," he said. Roger Winters is an assistant professor of political science and is now looking for other jobs. Winters said that he is concerned over the basis of the cut-backs. He sees them as based on "a simple worship of the large class." "It's based on the idea that a college should be run as a business, it's success being measured by the amount of products turned out. That's the classic diploma mill theory," he said. "I'm concerned that no one has said in public that it's an educational advantage to have smaller classes. If the state is out for quality education across the board, then the determination should be made differently as to how the funding should Roger Winters go. Obviously quality should rule over quan­ tity." Winters said that less time should be spent over "what the place is to be called and more time in dealing with the problems." Although he said he thought ample time was being devoted to the problems. Winters said that he sees the "Last-in, First-out" policy for layoffs as a way of dis­ couraging faculty from prestigious graduate schools who would be reluctant to sign on for an insecure job. He said he finds it a curious irony that the state will take his job away and then support him, although he neglected to mention that there would no doubt be a considerable difference between his present salary and unemployment compensation. "I find it difficult to accept that idea," said Dr. Brooks, in reply to the question of the last-in, first-out layoff policy being a way of discourag­ ing quality faculty. "It's a buyers market," he said. "This country is still producing a great number of quality Ph.Ds. every year." Dr. Brooks said that he views the governor's revised budget position as reasonable and a cause for optimism. The governor's plan is now before the legislature.

Consumer News Thursday, January 24,1974 —CAMPUS CRIER—Page 7 Seasonal huvina Students' rights vs. Campus Police / W bv David Schell Chief Pifiklcs added these hv dorm officials, not hv 1 often confusing Now that winter is upon us, there are many seasonal consumer' practices and buying decisions that frequently appear confusing. Many consumers have recently purchased new snow tires, with or without studs. The protection given by snow tires or studded snow tires is generally dictated by the winter conditions: snow, ice and low temperatures. Concerning winter tires, a recent issue of Everybody's Money" states: "Tests by the National Safety Council and Canadian Safety Council show that studded tires perform best on glare ice when temperatures are near freezing." When US tests were taken at 25 degrees with new studs on all four wheels, it was concluded that there was 218 per cent more traction and 31 per cent shorter braking distance^ These same studies showed that the effective­ ness of the studs decreases as the temperature drops. Further­ more, with temperatures at 0 degrees or below and on icy roads, the benefits are negligible. Due to the road damage caused by studs, their usage has been limited. In some states, and in Ontario, their usage has been pro­ hibited while most localities have restricted their usage to winter months. The effectiveness of snow tires is limited also, even though in some areas they are required by law. "Everybody's Money" reveals:"National Safety Council tests show that on loosely packed, new fallen snow, traction is improved by 51 per cent, and brakage by 13 per cent." However, the brakage appears slightly worse than regular tires on glare ice at 25 degrees or in packed snow, but the traction is 28 per cent improved. Tire chains seem to be the best bet for winter driving, where the traction is 630 per cent increased and the brakage is increased by 50 per cent oh glare ice at 25 degrees. Also, on loosely packed snow, the traction is 313 per cent better and the brakage 37 per cent. Unfortunately, the tire chains have many disadvantages that few drivers can tolerate, such as noise and inconvenience, which accounts for their unpopularity. It is also good to note that, according to "Everybody's Money," radial tires are adeqirate on wet pavement and in light snow. So, what if you don't have a car and have to deal with ice and snow on a one-to-one basis-man against nature? The following are some typical situations you may face during the cold season and recommendations for coping with them, taken from "Consumer Reports." 1. The temperature is within a couple of degrees of freezing, wet snow is falling and the forecast is for a total accumulation of two inches: Spread rock salt or calcium chloride at about one cup per square yard to melt the snow as it falls. Or, shovel. 2.The temperature is within a couple of degrees of freezing and sleet or freezing rain is falling: Spread rock salt or calcium chloride at about one-half cup per square yard reapply if the rain continues to freeze. 3. The temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees and two or three inches of snow has fallen overnight: Apply calcium chloride at about one* cup per square yard, or a 50/50 mixture of calcium chloride and rock salt at about one cup per square yard. Or, shovel. 4. Your entire driveway is.coated with about one-quarter inch of ice: Apply rock salt or calcium chloride if the temperature is above 20 degrees, calcium chloride if the temperature is below 20 degrees, at about one cup per square yard. Scrape away the coating as soon as the ice is free. If you're in a hurry, also apply sand, at about one cup per sqyare yard, to gain traction. Or, just sprinkle with sand. 5. You have a thin sheet of ice on your front steps: Use table salt at about one-half cup per square yard. The small particles, which will present a lot of surface to the ice, will do the melting job in a hurry. Scrape off as soon as the ice is melted to minimize tracking of white residue. Or, just sprinkle with sand. 6. The temperature is well below freezing and dry snow is falling: For get about the de-icer. SHOVEL. 7. Your car is stuck in eight inches of snow: Again, skip the de-icer and shovel out enough to. get the car started and put sand under and in front of the driving wheels for traction. Set the front wheels as straight as you can to achieve -maximum forward thrust. by David Schell staff writer It's 4:30 a.m., on any weekend, in any dorm on Central's campus. A student, who feels it's necessary to unwind after a long week of serious study, is jiving to the latest sounds of his favorite teenage combo, when he is in- terupted by a knock at his door. He opens the door only to be con­ fronted by a Campus Policeman who, unfortunately, does not share his view that Saturday nights and Sunday mornings are wholly intended for "getting loose." After a brief altercation, in which his pleas of innocence fall on deaf ears, the student is arrested and booked on charges of Illegal Possession and Con­ sumption of Alcoholic Beverages. It seems one of his fellow dorm inhabitants naively, felt Sunday mornings were intended for sleeping. There have been some ques­ tions on the part of dorm-dwell­ ing Central students as to their rights and the jurisdiction of the Campus Police. When asked about the rights of students living in dorms, Campus Police Chief, Alfred H. Pickles said, "The rights of stu­ dents living in dorms. are the same as any other citizen, noi more and no less." "Although the officer must re­ spond if called upon," he continu­ ed, "he does have options within the performance of his duty." The options are: 1. Refer the situation to someone within the dorm. 2. Issue a Citation. 3. Arrest and book the indivi­ dual. The Campus Policeman can enter the dorms at free will but cannot enter the individual rooms unless: 1. He is invited. 2. He observes a crime occur- ing inside the room from outside the room. 3. A felony is occuring within i the room. 4. A misdemeanor is occuring within the presence of the officer [within sight, sound, etc.] 5. The officer has reason to believe the occupant is in im­ mediate danger. Chief Pickles added these restrictions were no different than anywhere else on campus. In summarizing the general policy of the Campus Police, Chief Pickles said, "We do not enter rooms with the intent of exploring or looking for viola­ tions." Starting this school year all re- sident halls on campus establish- by dorm officials, not by the Housing staff, according to Mr. Hollister. If the student is not satisfied with the results obtained in the Screening Committee discussion he can take his complaint to the Area Judicial Council and make a formal charge. There are three Area Judicial Councils on campus. Each C.oun- "The rights of students living in dorms are the same as any other citizenj." ed Screening Committees to handle petty crimes and com­ plaints in the dorms. Director of Housing, Jim Holl­ ister, said the committees were established to encourage dis­ ciplinary action within the dorm itself in order to avoid legal pro-, blems. The committee has no legal power but depends on infor­ mal discussion to solve any com­ plaint a student may have. The Screening Committee members are elected by resi­ dents of the dorms or appointed cil is responsible for disciplinary action in approximately six build­ ings. If the student feels the Area Judicial Council has not met his needs he can appeal to the Campus Judicial Council, the highest and most powerful rul­ ing committee on campus. Both Chief Pickles and Jim Hollister urge the students to work within the dorms govern­ ing bodies if they have a com­ plaint, in order to avoid police action. Alpine club sponsors show, seminar, outing The Mountaineering Club of Central will be presenting a slide show and talk by noted mountain climber Barry Prather of Ellens- burg. Prather was a member of the successful American Mount Everest expedition of 1963. The slide show will be held at 7:30 in room 101 of Black Hall on Tuesday, Jan. 29. Admission will be 50 cents for students with ASC card and $1 for those people without cards. On Feb. 7 the club will sponsor a seminar on Alpine sports in the south banquet room of the SUB from 7-10 p.m. Discussion during the seminar will center arourxd ski and snow shoe equipment, winter survival and first aid, winter shelters (tents and ig­ loos), clothing, nutrition and maps and compass readings. On the weekend after the seminar, Feb. 9 and 10, a weekend outing is being planned to give the students involved in the seminar a chance to apply the classroom instruction to outdoor use. Those one the outdoor experience will have the chance to build themselves an ice cave and then spend the night in it. There will be a one dollar registration fee for events over the three days. Preregistration will be at a table in the SUB on Feb. 1 and from Feb. 4 through 7. r*/^\: r i L J 6 f ^ fi i i? MEN!—WOMEN! JOBS ON SHIPS! No ex­ perience required. Excellent pay. Worldwide travel.

Find out why. Call the Fidelity Union College Masters" Field Associate in your area: CbllegeMaster 700 Nortfi Sprofue A FA MARIETTA NEVVE Got a gripe? call the Crier by Scott Lewis staff writer Last Thursday morning, two members of the campus police force, armed with a search warrant, entered C-9 Moore Hall with the intention of finding "marijuana and controlled sub­ stances," according to the war­ rant's wording. What they found was Don Berwold, alone in the room he shares with Jim Pells, Rick White and Fletcher Scaife. Offi­ cers Thad Lindquist and William Paulman proceeded to systema­ tically go through the students' room, leaving it in complete disarray, while Berwold sat, watching. The call that had cast suspicion on the students had come from an informant. Whether it was a telephone caller playing a practi­ cal joke on security, with the. four roommates being the scapegoats, or whether the information had come from a known informer, is unknown at this time. Al Pickles, chief of campus police won't talk about that. Chief Pickles had earlier asked the four victims of the incident to help cover it up, but later the police chief issued a formal statement, that began by saying, "We goofed." It went on to say that "we took action on bad and. insufficient information. It appears we were mislead into what must have been a room containing students least likely to violate the law. We apologize deeply and sincerely for this error. The students involved have been very gra­ cious." Reflecting on the events of that morning, one of the four residing in that room, Fletcher Scaife, said that when he got there, the place was a mess, and LS M£ i the 925-9511 [OPEN 4:45 STARTS SUNDAY Shows At 5:00 & 9:00 "Pat Garret & Billy the Kidd Co-Hit 7:00 ELECTRA GLIDE IN BLUE 925-4598 OPEN 6:45 Shows At 7:00 & 9:00 "The Long Goodbye" Starts SUNDAY OPEN~6:45 Shows 7:00 & 8:50 Short Subject Plus |"SIDDHARTHA" R Student Prices Foreign Car Repairs and Parts he called the traffic and police office for an explanation of why the officers hadn't left it in better condition. "He (the person at the campus police office) told me .it wasn't that^ad, that there were just o,g|§two things out of place. I kind of said 'uh' and he said 'well, maybe three or four.' I counted to eight before he stopped me." According to a campus police: spokesman, officers are under obligation to leave searched rooms as they were found. Scaife and his roommates aren't holding any grudges. "It'd be like kicking a dead horse," he said. They don't plan any legal action. The two officers are unavail­ able for comment. As they went through the things in the room, one officer reportedly repeated, "This has gotta' be the wrong room...this just can't be right." The other seemed to be more convinced, and made allegations like, "We've been watching you ., smelled it under your door...you just hid it too well this time," according to Scaife. Scaife maintains that he and his roommates are all straight. "I'm a Mormon," he said, "and the other three are Christians." There has never" been any pot or dope in the room as long as he has been there, he said. Chief Pickles did not confirm it, but the possibility exists that campus lawmen are making a concentrated effort to crack down on local pushers and suppliers. Fletcher Scaife said Pickles had apologized to him, and used as a partial excuse things that Scaife "was not at liberty to discuss." Informer's secret is well-kept Tips regarding drugs, law­ breakers and other crimes are handled by police departments frequently, and the informer is one valuable asset every police­ man cultivates and protects, much as newspapermen cultivate and protect sources or salesmen cultivate and protect certain territory. There are two basic types of informer. There is the citizen who knows or sees something and calls in, without leaving his name, and there is the "known" informant, the kind that is protected by the police he or she talks to. This variety of source may be called upon to give testimony in court, if need be, but unless it is absolutely neces­ sary, his name is kept secret. There are, apparently, both types currently operating here at Central. The campus security police won't tell reporters whe­ ther or not an informant was known to them or not, to eliminate chances of his being traced. In order to secure a search warrant from a judge or magis­ trate, the officers or department seeking the warrant must affirm that the chances of a bust are 99 per cent sure. The opportunity for receiving a search warrant on an anonymous tip is slight.
by David Wasser staff writer Three proposals from Central have been turned in to the Fund for the Improvement of Post Secondary Education, a depart­ ment of Health, Education and Welfare. Two more proposals are in the preliminary stages and will be turned in soon. The three programs already submitted come from the educa­ tion, biology and audio-visual departments. Of the two pro­ grams to be submitted, one will come from the Career and Technical studies department, and another from the Education department. If passed, the three submitted programs would involved a greater choice for students in these departments, giving them more field experience and maxjU Blind organization solicits local campus memberships A student group associated with the National Federation of the Blind is being organized in Washington State, with mem­ bership open to blind students at all educational levels including vocational training. Coordinator is Raymond Angel, a graduate student in English at the UW who is an officer in the National Federation of the Blind of Washington (NFBW). Focus of the new division, according to Angel, will be on special problems facing blind students such as library services, employment and career gui­ dance. Membership in the student division includes membership in Impeachment 'Teach-In' scheduled •MM emmm wJ/wlmvl': liliti the state and national federations. These groups work actively, Angel said, for the equality of the blind in society and offer assis­ tance and counseling in a number of areas. Community and legisla­ tive programs work to remove legal, economic and social dis­ crimination, and to educate the public on the concept of the blind as useful, talented individuals. "Other agencies and founda­ tions provide services," Angel said, "and they do excellent work. But through the Feder­ ation and its affiliates it is the blind themselves speaking for themselves." There are 15 local chapters of the NFBW in the state. Anyone wishing information on the near­ est chapter of the new student division may contact Raymond Angel at the central office of tyFBW, 1318 Second Avenue, Seattle 98101 mum flexibility in planning ttfeir education. The program submitted from the Biological Sciences depart­ ment is concerned with bio-tech­ nological aspects, according to Dr. Philip C. Dumas, chairman of the department. This program would allow a student to pass certain competency tests, neces­ sary to pass each class in the program, at his own pace. The student would be able to acquire these competencies anywhere, not just in the classroom. Dr. Dumas describes the pro­ gram as applied learning assoc­ iated with industries and other fields interested in recruiting technologists. It would give the student more practical exper­ ience in his field. The Education program, ac­ cording to Dr. Jimmie Applegate, is also designed to increase practical field experience and allow each student additional input. Dr. Applegate outlined three sections of the proposal. The first would set up a cooperative effort with 22 school districts through­ out the state. Most of the practical experiences would take place in these districts. The second phase involves a commitment to switch the edu­ cation programs from campus oriented situations to programs concentrating more on field experiences. The Education de­ partment has been moving in that direction for quite some time. The third feature of the proposal would be to develop a national model in the state involving Central, the 22 school districts and five off-campus education centers. Dr. Charles Vlcek, of the Audio-Visual department, says their program, like the others, would make more use of a competency-based education. The program would also offer a wider range of avenues to pursue their educational objectives.

Page 10 —CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, January 24,1974 Answering Gerry Ford: 'Yes, sir, it's war!' Vice-President Gerald Ford recently accused the nation's press of "waging total war against the President of the United States." Sir, that is exactly what we are doing, and it's about time it was done. For month after month we have watched investigators pain­ stakingly extract bit after bit of information from an administra­ tion that publically denies any wrongdoing, then makes every ol'lort to prevent the truth from being discovered. But each day brings the truth a little closer to the eyes of the nation. The evidence is drawing the investigators increasingly closer to the White House, and to the President himself. Mr. Nixon should not face impeachment proceedings because of his stands on certain historical issues. The conduct of the war in Vietnam, the.bombing of Cambodia, Phases one through four, and political favors for big business all add up to what Mr. Nixon feels is best for the nation and indirectly, for the world. Impeachment proceedings must be initiated because Mr. Nixon has lost the faith and trust of the nation, and only a formal trial by his peers can resolve the matter. Crimes have been committed, there can be no doubt of that. All along the administration's chain of command, examples of payoffs, "laundered" money, secret funds, illegal surveillances and illegal entry have been discovered. Whether Mr. Nixon is found guilty or innocent of being an accomplice to the Watergate affair will not be answered for a long time. Rut the issue of withholding evidence is drawing closer all ihe time. The President cannot be tried in the same court as an average : iti/.en. His peers are not our peers, at least in theory. Thus, he • nisi submit to impeachment to resolve the matter of his guilt or nnoeenee, and only by such proceedings can he hope to success­ fully convince the American public of the innocence he so often •proclaims. That is our way Mr. Vice-President, one designed to force Mr. .Nixon to follow the laws within the Constitution he has sworn to protect and submit to a trial by his peers. Mr. Nixon fell that "Operation Candor" was sufficient for his defense, although that is like a man accused of a crime saying "I didn't do it," then expecting his statement to satisfy the police. What did "Operation Candor" and Rose Mary Woods have to say about the fact that one section of one tape was erased, not once accidentally, but five times? The time has come for justice to be done, now more than ever. IBlill m ism iiiiii ••• PRES Mission to IQ r Editor's parting thoughts •\ Who gives a damn ? by Smitty editor-in-chief It ends where it began almost two years ago in this same sorry excuse for a newspaper office. It's late at night, I'm here alone, and can think of no better time or place to bid this paper adieu. Like most who have been suckered into this job, life has passed by faster than 120 words per minute. We are so busy telling others what is happening and what is coming up, that we never get to enjoy that which we labor so hard to make public. Education takes a back seat to this question­ able form of practical experience in the newspaper business. I began my love affair with this office about two years ago, and now I realize that two years of knowledge has slipped through my fingers while I proved how little I knew every day. Perhaps future editors should be required to state that they have fulfilled all personal educational learning objectives and will have absolutely no regrets about missing all that booklearnin' going on around them. The obvious question is, if we don't like the sacrifices, why in the hell do we do it? Because we are hard-core masochists who enjoy busting our tails for people who don't know what is going on around them, and even more satisfying, who don't care. Things on campus were getting so bad that we almost walked around seeing if students could identify a photo of James Brooks. (Remember him? He's the school president) It was never done due to the widespread fear that the results would show the student body to be apathetic beyond the point of help. The situation is even more sad when the size of this college and the surrounding community are considered. Ellensburg's survival depends on the college, whose survival depends on its students. Do I really have to say more? Students in the late sixties cried out against the status quo forces hidden throughout the social spectrum, demanding that youth have a voice in decision-making. Now must we accept the tragic fact that students of the sixties marched and had their heads broken by cops and National Guardsmen, just so students of the seventies could walk on by the voting booth, or read only the sports and comic sections of the newspapers? Do you not see what is happening around us and to us? We are becoming so wrapped up in finding a good job that we have placed that consideration above the responsibilities that youthful pioneers laid at our feet. They fought for us: now we're fighting for the Almighty Buck. The faculty cutbacks have been implemented and those who are being "riffed" have been notified.We all say it's a bummer, then hustle off to find out how we can save our precious degrees in case a prof in our field gets the axe. In one case, a few students don't see it that way. They feel that the rest of the foreign department will mean an actual cut in the entire Mass Media Program of 33 per cent, while other more powerful programs are being requried merely to cutdown on the frequency of the times a class is to be offered. And yet from that department, which should have some of the most persuasive and articulate student writers on this campus, not a sound is heard. The Crier has not been used for fear of perceived favoritism by the general student public. We probably had no need to be afraid. During my term as editor of the Crier the paper has attempted to encourage some, chastize others, and make a few folks mad just to keep them on their toes for a change. Hopefully, some good has come of our efforts. If nothing else, it has been apparent that lately, students have started READING the Crier, not merely skimming through and looking at the 'Ellensburg depends on the college, whose survival depends on students. language program heads have joined forces against the Chinese program, the smallest in the department. As a result, the program is being discontinued and its prof forced to find another job. The students are trying to gather support for their professor because they feel he has been wronged and as a potentially powerful influence on decision making at Central they must come to his aid. I wish the same could be said for other students. In my own field, journalism, a grave error in judgement seems to have been made, one which warrants an investigation at the least. The cutback of one faculty member for that pictures. We are getting more letters to the editor, a small measure of proof that at least some people are at last beginning to react to things they read in the newspaper. But reacting does not automaticaly lead to acting. If my successor can lead the student body to the latter stage, it will go down in history as a major achievement for a college publication. I wish him and his staff the best of luck for all our sakes. Now if you will excuse me, I think I'll go help my wife have our baby. It's due today and that's one local event I'm going to cover myself.
•k«-:-X«» mmm Y&'A m... tm immi mmm Thursday, January 24,1974 —CAMPUS CRIER— Page 11 Facilitators turn opponents Urge action, not apathy To the editor: Much talk about somebody's idea to abolish student govern­ ment at Central has been going around the campus the last two weeks. Actually, the idea in question was more a public criticism of ASC, recently pub­ lished in the Crier's OPINION column. Naturally, such an un­ ethical, below-the-belt (maybe even criminal?) act produced the flair of some tempers, public rebutals (like this one) and some honest-to-God confrontation. If the principle involved weren't so serious the whole situation would make hilarious comedy. The very simple fact that if even one, formerly "sick" student became involved in some issue that effected him/her, then the whole ruckus was and is worth it. Those that don't believe that APATHY is a sickness are the sickest. Student government at Cen­ tral has been hopelessly inef­ fective in those areas thaDeffect students the most. It has already been pointed out (in last week's Crier) that the demonstrations, hard work and sacrifice that ended U.S. participation in Viet Nam and the draft weren't carried out by a small group of people. Sometimes it took a few hundred thousand at once to make any impression. Issues like RIF, JSF, courses, housing, recreation and seemingly count­ less others do effect the students of this campus. ASC has ap­ parently realized this for a long time and does not appear to _ always have been content with the situation. The question of. whether the faculty /administra­ tion hierarchy in general realizes this or not is debatable. Their policies and attitudes, however, have been such as to exclude students from affecting those policies that prohibit the consid­ eration of student rights and needs. The student body in general bewilders me. Students would appear totally oblivious to the way they periodically get stomped on until it gets real personal, as in the Hatch's case. But, when I talk to students and faculty about the situation at Central, they seem generally knowledgable, and dissatisfied. Then nothing happens! The solution is quite simple, in spite of the enormity of problems facing us. It is time for the Board of Trustees, Administration and Faculty to wake up to the fact that Central's days may be running out. No state college or university can hope to survive in • this country and time that fails to respond to its clientel. ASC is asking to be able to help with the real work and responsibility of running this college. The student body of Central must overcome the dreaded sickness. Students campus-wide must wipe the sleep from their eyes. The students have the most work to do, but they have the greatest resource of all—sheep numbers. The resource is useless in- enough students don't give their roach clip and/or beer mug a vacation and pitch in, however. If enough people stop in the ASC office and ask what they can do to help, then things will start to happen. These are the keys to effective student government.Some highly desirable side benefits might be realized if these changes are implemented. We could begin to develop a cooperative, smooth running campus, possibly a rise in enrollment and a simple pride in our ability to care for and respect one another. Larry Brown Letters to the editor and guest editorials are welcome. Letter must be typed and limited to 250 words. Editors reserve the right to edit all letters for space and libel. Letters must be signed. To the editor: It is with a certain tragic amusement that we must ob­ serve recent actions of our ad­ ministrators in the cases of Ms. Crews and Ms. Talman. In each case, those entrusted with ad­ ministrative areas of responsi­ bility have, by virtue of their duties, placed themselves in the improbable position of enemies of learning. Ms. Talman, who wishes only to. exercise her right to live where she pleases while attend­ ing school, has been opposed by the administrative imperative to uphold the tradition of paternal guardianship, combined with the apparent need to guarantee occupancy of dormitories so the buildings can be paid for. When the welfare of buildings and the desire of some to refuse status of adulthood to grown men and women run contrary to a genuine desire to learn, one can only wonder what sort of "higher edu­ cation" is going on here. Ms. Crews, by any measure a prodigy, beyond ber own age group in maturity, common sense and intellectual skill, is denied the opportunity to learn Chinese and Latin because of the absence of documents. As a teacher, I would be delighted to have more students capable of correct use of the English language, driven by an inner impulsion to study and truly thirsting for knowledge. But, her age and level of previous education, it seems, prevent her from pursuing this knowledge as she. wishes. It is the nature of bureaucrats that they protect their "author­ ity" in every way, even when the reasons for that authority be­ come outdated or when the pursuit of their duties contra­ dicts the basic principles of the institution for which they work. I suggest that we all take a good, hard look at the administration of the College, in hopes of ridding ourselves of those rules and regulations which undermine, rather than support our "prime directive," the pursuit of learn­ ing. When buildings, rules, docu­ ments and other impersonal things supplant the learning experience of real persons as the things to be served here, we are well on the road to making colleges the opposite of what they should be...opponents, rather than facilitators of learn­ ing. Roger L. Winters Assistant Professor Political Science Federal government monies carry avai To the editor: Readers of. the Crier may be interested to know that the "Opinion" on page 5 of the Dec. 6 issue of the Crier was based par­ tially on incomplete information. The Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education, a brand new federal agency, did send its guidelines for applica­ tions to the College early in December. Dissemination of this information to faculty was made as soon as the guidelines were received but - faculty got the information no sooner than one week before the announced dead­ line of Dec. 15, quite insufficient time for faculty to respond. FIPE, recognizing its own goof, later in December extended its deadline to Jan. 15.. Numerous potential applicants from among the faculty have inquired about EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Phil "Smitty" Smithson MANAGING EDITOR Paddy Cottrell NEWS EDITOR Rick Dalvit SPORTS EDITOR Rafael Gonzales COPY EDITOR Mary Rennie COPY READERS Janis Taylor, Scott Lewis, a I w.V'.'.'O'. 4 COttKrf pier BUSINESS MANAGER Craig Lyle AD MANAGER Tom Shapley ADVISORS Calvin Johnson AD REPRESENTATIVE Marge Langenes Jim Fouts SECRETARY Kathy Kilgore TYPE SETTERS Teresa Mesplie, Julie Klamm, Marian Cottrell REPORTERS Byron Vandergrift, Nancy Chott, Ron Fredriksen, Greg Manuel, David Wasser, Jaclde Humphries, Clint Anderson, Steve Ryan, Bill Kirby, Jim Christenson PHOTO EDITOR Terry Mullins PHOTOGRAPHER Chang Po Jay the Fund and three pre-proposals have been submitted to Washing­ ton, D.C. The chances of any given institution receiving even one grant are slim enough and two applications generally in­ sures that no more than one could stand a chance of funding. In the "Opinion" it was stated that there was an "offering of money to people with imagina­ tion and courage to try some­ thing new in education." That was the overstatement of the day. The "offering" of money by the federal government always carries strong limitations of availability of funds, political considerations and limits of geo­ graphical distribution. Faculty members are carrying heavier classroom loads this year in an attempt to uphold program offerings for the benefit of the students. These heavy loads are hardly encouraging to those wanting to apply for outside funding because it is a long, tedious and often disappointing trail. Those who apply generally have to make personal sacrifices during the proposal writing stage. If funds are awarded, the project director always must accept personal satisfaction as' his primary reward since no federal grant monies can be used to give pay raises. So, in my opinion, Central's faculty has gone its second mile already in attempting to get funding from FIPE. Let's hope the time spent and the headaches of federal bureaucracy associated with the whole application pro­ cess pay off! Central's students will be the winners if they do. Jerry L. Jones Academic Grants and Contracts 'Standards' questioned To the editor: The defense I would like to make for Ms. Crews does not involve a questioning of her qualifications or lack of the same, but rather the issue is Central's standard. At a time when many educators are questioning the validity of the public school experience and Central's propos­ ed cutbacks due to decreasing student enrollment, it would seem that hiding behind a facade of rules, regulations and stan­ dards indicates an administration not concerned with meaningful change. I agree that Ms. Crews prob­ ably should not attend Central. Contrary to Ms. Sands, the pro­ posed reductions in staff (regard­ less of the number) will have a substantial effect on students. It would be unfair to Ms. Crews for her to attend an institution which seeks university status yet re­ fuses to acknowledge the needs of the people by entrenching it­ self behind antiquated notions. All letters to the editor cannot exceed 250 words, yet we stu­ dents of Central (which might one day include Ms. Crews) are obviously in the presence of the super-natural: Mr. George Gross­ man in rebuking Ms. Crews ex­ ceeded the 250 word limit by 207. I realize this may seem trivial yet failing to exercise his responsi­ bilities as editor of the Crier, the editor has continued to give tacit support to the idea that adminis­ trative staff are entitled to all the rights, privileges and status that pertains to being a Diety. For this reason it will indeed be re­ markable if Ms. Crews has the opportunity to demonstrate that ability to matriculate is not conti- gent upon a successful comple­ tion of putting in her time nor in tests which are designed to mea­ sure quantities of knowledge, rather than quality of ability.

Page 12 —CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, January 24,1974 Honors program and director terminated Director reports RIF vilolations To the Advisory Council of the Vice President for Academic Affairs Dr. Edward Harrington, Chairman I address you corporately as the implement­ ing agent of the Reduction-In-Force (RIF) policy, approved by the Board of Trustees on November 9, 1973. Posthaste on the morning of November 15, I was informed, by the dean to whom I as Director of the Honors Program report, of your decisions to terminate the General Honors Program and my employment. I was told by him, officially, I was given to believe, to expect a letter of termination by December 12 (effective nine months later) and an additional third of my yearly salary. I was subsequently sent a copy of a memo exchanged between two of you dated December 5, confirming your decisions against my program and employment. I did not receive the promised letter by December 12. Upon inquiry, my dean told me, unofficially, that my name was at the last moment but only provisionally removed from the cut-list submit­ ted for approval to the Board on December 7. His answers to my questions about this move were indeed obscure. Since I am left dangling with still no official word from you to the contrary, I must assume that I am to be terminated as per the conditions outlined above and shall set my course accordingly. My present grievance has to do with infraction of the RIF policy. I will not join argument with you over the loss to this College of its General Honors Program or my termination. These decisions have, I suspect, been in the air at Barge Hall for some time. So be it. Maybe they were necessary now, assuming institutional financial exigency. I cannot say, since, contrary to the safeguards of the RIF policy, I have been systematically excluded from every phase of the process by which they were derived. Which brings me to the hub-your method in these matters. The RIF document guarantees to every academic unit inclusion in the decision-making process, at the input, review and recommenda­ tion stages prior to closure. I, nevertheless, was kept in total ignorance of what was taking place. You sought neither input nor recommendation from me. Nothing was presented me for review prior to closure. Indeed, at the moment when other academic units were sent a plan to review, I was served notice of "deeds accomplished" by administrative fiat. Even then, at my own asking, was I given but meager, guarded indication of your reasons. No mention was made of any effort either to relocate me laterally within the institution or to protect against the loss of a program-both in contradiction of RIF policy. I am given the impression you think the disposing of my program and employment is not really my business. What has become of "mutual accountability" among colleagues? Where in this is compliance with either the letter or spirit of RIF? The RIF document suggests that each faculty member has a hand, at the departmental or program level, in deciding his or her destiny. I laud the recognition of human rights and feelings here implicit. But, gentlemen, you have denied me that right. When I asked my dean, upon notification of impending dismissal, if I was voice or vote, totally excluded from the entire affair-except as recipient "after the fact" of your unilateral will. "Once again" I say, because this has been too frequently the pattern of your dealings with me in recent years, in events ranging from budget cuts to the curious handling of my tenure. Three of you have had complaints from me on this score, one of you repeatedly-alas, to no avail. What stock would you have me place in "participatory governance" at this College? For me it reduces to a problem v either of principle or of administration. The principle is: Those whose lives are directly affected shall have the right to input, the right to review other input, the right to be privy to and participate in deliberations, and the right to one vote on the question. Otherwise, say I, it is oligarchy not participatory governance. It is oligarchy any­ way if administration ignores principle. You have the principle (most of it) written plainly into the RIF policy. Here I give you a case of its violation. This letter is not an appeal for reconsidera­ tion. It is a protest against misadministration and, more specifically, infraction of the RIF policy.

Once again, I have been bypassed, shunted aside, made a spectator of actions impacting me, without knowledge of input and without input myself, not consulted at any point, not privy to deliberations, without concur ana will join in method of these actions.

It was the article in the Jan. 10,1974, page 4, which prompted me to write this letter. I get upset each week with the Crier as I see where people in the ASC are either misquoted or where the facts are not true. I cannot recall one instance where a writer or editor of the Crier has checked out the facts in an article where they have affected the ASC. (I wonder if this same pro­ blem is encountered by other people.) I will not comment on any specifics, as there is no way in Hell that I could keep this letter under 250 words as required by the Crier. (This is probably one of the few letters that will be.) I would invite any student and the Crier to come or call the ASC and check out the truth of their articles before or after they are printed. Dean M.

CA-" '»C^' To the editor: In this day of rising energy: place costs and lower energy supplies, it seems that Central has hit upon an ingeneous plan to con­ serve electrical and fuel energy. One may not recognize this conservation plan immediately but with some closer attention to detail it begins to come into focus. It is indeed a unique long range conservation enterprise. It is important to hote before proceeding that long range ener­ gy needs are the real concern. A couple of short duration, heavy energy usage periods now are justifiable in view of the long range goal. Let me illustrate. Take the way that the last week of Pall quarter developed.

That academic probation. seems innocent enough at first blush, but let's look at it from the fuel energy point of view. Many students were faced with the out­ rageous task of taking four or five finals on the last day of classes. While that may be viewed by some as a character not.

While Mr. Hill may be thinking in terms of poodles and small dogs, we foresee Great Danes, German Shepherds, and other "status" pets. There simply is no place for animals in the college housing area. Even with rules such as leashes and fences the animals would become nuis­ ances. Has Mr. Hill even con­ sidered the impossibility of en­ forcing such rules? When we moved' into Brook- lane Village we were impressed with how clean and quiet it was. All the children could play outside without watching where they step. Many small children are terrified of dogs. If you were 272 ft. tall how would you feel after being knocked down by a St. Bernard that "just wanted to play?" And pets have been known to bite! It certainly seems ridiculous to risk the safety of everyone's children for the "en­ joyment" (?) of allowing animals. There are many problems to be considered with this proposal. Who will quiet the neighbor's animal at 2 a.m. when they are gone for the weekend? Who will prevent the animals from fight­ ing in our yards where our children are playing? Who will clean up the messes in the yard? Who will reseed the grass after the lawn has been destroyed? Who is going to take in the puppies and animals left behind when their owners move? What about the worm spores that remain for years, long after the animal is gone, just waiting for contact with a child's hand and eventually his mouth? The an­ swer to all of these questions will be, "Not I, it wasn't my animal!" We are not the only residents of college housing that feel this way, many of our neighbors object also. We feel that if a family has a pet they cannot part with they should arrange to have it cared for by friends or BEAR MNCH THIS PRESENTS KICKIN' One Of Seattle's Finest Rock And Roll Bands THURS.

Page 14 —CAMPUS CRIER—Thursday, January 24,1974 Cagers sweep weekend action 'X by Rafael Gonzales sports editor Last weekend, the Central Wildcats reaffirm­ ed their bid for another EvCo basketball crown by sweeping two conference games in action at Nicholson Pavilion. The 'Cats gained a tie with Western for the second place berth in the con­ ference with the two wins. Eastern is currently leading the league with a 4-1 conference mark. Friday night, the 'Cats came across with one of their best shooting performances of late as they toppled the league-leading Eagles of Eastern 80-76. The 'Cats were aggressive on defense and were able to slow the vaunted Eagle attack enough to earn a 36-30 lead at the half. The Eagle press couldn't stop the 'Cats enough to make a real difference early in the game, and Central also put the visitors into foul trouble early. In the first half, the cold shooting hosts could manage only 12 of 31 field goals for a 39 per cent mark while Eastern clipped the nets at a 52 per cent rate, clicking on 12 of 23 tries. Free throws were the difference, as Central had 17 free throws and converted 12 while the Eagles made the trip to the line only nine times and put in six. Tim Sandberg and Steve Page each had ten points for the hosts in the opening stanza. Les Wyatt, EUensburg Frosh, had seven points and four rebounds, leading the hosts in that category. Bernie Hite had nine first-half points for the visitors and Ron Cox, younger brother of former Central Ail-American Mel Cox, had seven rebounds. Three Eagles, including Cox, were burdened with three personal fouls in the first half. After the half, the 'Cats stayed in front of the Eagles by six to 10 points most of the way, with Delmore and Wyatt leading the charge. With 5:01 left in the game, Eastern came to life as Cox and John Alaniva reeled off five straight points to bring the Eagles within four at 67-63. Guard Page came back with an outside shot to put the 'Cats back on the track and they held their lead until the buzzer. The Eagles managed to get within four at 67-71 and, with less than 15 seconds left, Hite sank two consecu­ tive baskets to bring the Eagles up to their final total. ' Playing a tough and aggressive game on defense played a big role in the EvCo win for the 'Cats according to coach Dean Nicholson. The visiting Eagles committed 26 turnovers to Central's 14, an important factor since the hosts were only able to manage one more rebound thanthe league leaders. Ned Delmore led all scorers with 21. He was followed by Page, who tossed in 18 counters for the 'Cats. Wyatt and Sandberg each added 15 for Central. Dave McDow and Bill Eldred led Central rebounders with eight apiece. Cox and Hite each had 15 for the losers, with Rocky Heutink adding 13, freshman Ed Waters 11 and Alaniva 10. Cox led all rebounders, pick­ ing off 11 loose balls. "We played well overall against them," commented Nicholson. "We ran the floor well and got back on the defense to stop their break." "There was a lot of talk and people were tell­ ing others what was happening," - Nicholson further commented. He felt it was his team's "scrap and intensity, which allowed us to get some loose balls." CENTRAL 93-EASTERN OREGON 71 Saturday night, the 'Cats completed their weekend sweep by running away from the visiting Mountaineers of Eastern Oregon College in the second half to chalk up their third EvCo win against a lone loss. After falling behind 8-4 in the opening minutes of the game, the Wildcats took their second lead of the game at 23-22 and,were headed again on their way to another win. After leading by as many as six points, however, the 'Cats gave up six straight points just before the half and were only able to manage a one point lead at the mid-point break, 46-45. After the half, Greg Nutt sank a free throw to" knot the game at 46-all, but Central came back with six points of their own, four by Wyatt, and claimed the lead again. After that, the 'Cats were in command all the way, with EOC getting no closer than six points the rest of the night. In the first half, the Mountaineers potted 19 of 39 attempts while Central managed only 18 of 45. Central pulled down 27 rebounds in the first half compared to 19 for Eastern Oregon. In the second half, the visitors went stone-cold and could only manage 3 of 22 shots from the field as they helplessly watched the 'Cats steadily pull away. The 'Cats were led by Page with 17 tallies, with Wyatt adding 15 and Delmore 13. Mike Mann poured in 14 points in the second half as he came-off the bench and dropped in six of eight . attempts from the field. Dave McDow, usually a starter, also came off the bench to turn in a strong performance with eight points and 11 rebounds. Wyatt and Eldred added 10 rebounds apiece. Ron Townsend led the Mountaineers with 14, Greg Nutt added 13 and Jay Crittenden and Doug Fry scored 10 _ apiece. Crittenden, Townsend and Jim McKay, who also added nine points, snatched six rebounds apiece for the losers. The loss dropped the Mountaineer con­ ference mark to 1-4. "We played a good second half," commented the Central cage boss after the win. "We are happier than heck. It was a good win and we feel we are coming along." He also singled out a lack of defense in the first half as being a "bit of a problem." Next weekend, the 'Cats travel to Klamath Falls, Oregon to meet the powerful Owls of Oregon Tech on their home court. "Against OTI, our prime concern will be to stop their offense," Nicholson commented. "They have some really good ball players in Dave Carrigan and a 6'5" freshman named McEachin." "We are still very much in it and this week will be a real challenge, playing three times on the road. Our guards are playing well and we are looking a bit better I believe, but this will definitely be. our toughest week for a while," he concluded. The Wildcats met the team from Seattle Pacific in an away game Tuesday, but results were not available at press time. They will face the Owls of OTI tomorrow night and will meet the Southern Oregon College Red Raiders in Ashland, Oregon, Saturday night.

Both players scored 15 points.. [Photo by Gonzales] by Jim Christenson sports writer Central's swim team met head- on with a strong University of Puget Sound squad last Thurs­ day in Nicholson Pavilion pool and dropped a tightly contested meet by the score of 61-52. The 'Cats, returning to action for the first time in over a month, established an early lead behind the first place finish of its 400 yard medley relay. Central's relay team comprised of Dick Green, Joe White, Mike Miller and Ed Walstead was timed in 3:47.1, one-tenth of a second slower than UPS, but was awarded the victory through the officials ruling. The score volleyed back and forth throughout the competition as Central held five and eight point margins early in the meet, only to see the Loggers come, back and take a 12 point advantage into the waning min­ utes. Freshman standout Jerry White contributed to the 'Cats effort with two victories in the 200-yard individual medley and the 200-yard breast stroke. In the medley, White recorded a season-best time of 2:06.1, then came from behind in the breast stroke to win in 2:19.6 and help pull Central back into contention. Down 53-44 with only two events left, Central divers', Bill Campbell and Dave Cotton were called upon for some heroics to keep the 'Cats in contention going into the final relay. Both responded with a one-two finish in the 3-meter dive to set up the showdown. Campbell captured first with 270 points followed by Cotton's 252.75. The meet-deciding 400 yard free style relay saw UPS jump off to an early lead and hang on to capture first with a time of 3:22.1. Central's team, Walstead, Fred Gasparach, Green and M. Miller, touched in 3:24.5 'Cat coach Bob Gregson ex­ pected the meet to come down to the last relay and is already looking ahead with optimism towards Central's second meet- . ing with UPS later in the season. "A lot of good early season times came out of the meet," Gregson said. "We were a little bit tight, but we are ready to go now." The 'Cats got a taste of victory in high fashion as.they dumped host Lewis & Clark, 90-9 and Portland State, 75-38 last Friday in tri-meet action. Leading the team in victory were double winners Bill Miller and Craig Brown. Miller splashed through the water to take firsts in the 200 yard butterfly and 200 yard free style, with Brown touching first in the 200 yard breast stroke and 1,000 yard free style. Other first place victories were performed by Walstead in the 200 yard individual medley Green, 100 yard free style and Gasparach, 500 yard free style. Walstead also bested the na­ tional gualifying standard last weekend in the 400 yard individ- ual4medley at an AAU meet in Tacoma with a time of 4:34. Central will next travel to Idaho for a meet with Idaho State and Gonzaga starting to­ morrow, then will wind up the trip in Spokane on Saturday with a meet against Eastern Washing­ ton and Gonzaga.

Gymnasts travel to Montana Invitational "A good performance" is Coach Dee Johns' prediction for her women's gymnastic' team's first season showing at the University of Montana this Saturday, Jan. 26. Johns anticipates some good individual displays from Sue Sullivan on the uneven bars and Jane Moser in floor exercise. "Andy Carton may be a bit behind as she had a late start, then had the flu. Sherry Burr lacks competitive experience but has worked hard since she began the season," commented Johns. The coach continued, "We . don't have depth in the areas of floor exercise, vault, or uneven bars." She attributes this to the season turnout. The team which started with six members is now down to four full-time partici­ pants and one part-time partici­ pant. Saturday's meet will include a number of schools from Montana, at least one from Idaho and Central representing Washing­ ton State. Several of the Central gym­ nasts participated in a dance workshop held last Saturday in Nicholson Pavilion. The work­ shop included one session de­ signed for gymnastic dance. The workshop was taught by Ms. Carol Ricks, a dance specialist now teaching at Sealth High School in Seattle. She is also a performing member of the com­ pany with Dance Theatre Seat­ tle. Matmen lose first EvCo dual meet ever Thursday, January 24,1974—CAMPUS CRIER— Page 15 by Clint Anderson sports writer The Wildcat grapplers flirted with victory last weekend but came away empty handed in two matches with WSU and Eastern on their opponents home mats. One Friday night the 'Cats fought and lost to the Cougars in Pullman, 21-15. Bob Pierce, a sophomore from Highline C.C., won an exciting match over Paul Bartlett, recording two take­ downs in the final period for a 15-14 win. Central forfeited-the 142 pound class, knotting the score at nine. John Burkholder grabbed a victory at 150 pounds, outscoring his Cougar opponent 6-1, putting the Wildcats in the lead, 12-9. In the following three matches Central went scoreless as Dewey Parish, Dan Older, and Rich Burkholder all went down to defeat. Rocky Jsley closed the gap to 18-15 with a 7-4 decision over Russ Rogers. Isley earned an escape, takedown, and a three point near fall in the final period for the win. Central heavyweight Ned Nelson dropped a 3-1 decision to Pat Bell to end the scoring and the match. On that losing note the Wild­ cats traveled north for an Evergreen Conference match with Eastern. For the first time in EvCo history, Central lost a conference dual meet as the Screamin' Eagle edged the 'Cats 18-16. Central led in team points, 16-15 until the final match Eastern's Darrel Shaw decision- ed Ned Nelson 4-1 to steal the victory. The Wildcats trailed 12-2 after the first four matches with Bob Pierce picking up the only team points on a draw at 134. John Burkholder and Dewey Parish each scored major decisions, 12-1 and 12-2 respectiveley. Dan Older then added on three more team points with a 3-0 decision. Following a loss by Rich Burk­ holder, Rocky Isley manuvered for a 4-2 win to- set up the deciding heavyweight match. Central wrestled both matches at partial strength due to the absense of three of their top performers, 'Willie Guy (118), Greg Gowens (134), and Kit Shaw (142), the defending NAIA Champion. Head coach Eric Beardsley, in expressing his disappointment over the losses explained, "We could have defeated or tied Washington State and beaten Eastern if we would have had just^one of those three men in the line-up. I know they would have been winners. Guy suffered a slight leg injury, Gowens wasn't fully ready to wrestle again and Shaw aggravated an earlier shoulder injury.

A high scorer in the game with the Yakima team Saturday morn­ ing was Terri Short, who came off the bench and made 13 points shooting 5 out of 7 field goals and went 3 for 3 at the free throw line. Another high scorer was Brenda Carter who had a tally of 10 points. Central played a good defen­ sive game and much ball-hawk­ ing provided them with some good fast breaks. The women shot 48 per cent from the field and 60 per cent from the free throw line. The second game, against Seattle Pacific, gave the Kittens another chance to display their good defensive play. Julie Hoff, making nine out of 11 field goals, was high scorer with 18 points. Marsha Gulla scored eight points. This Saturday Central plays a team from Tacoma at 10:00 a.m. at Nicholson Pavilion. Coach Pat Lacey explained this team de­ feated Central twice last year, so it should be a good game. The Kittens continue their league action at 3:00 p.m. when they meet Eastern at the Wildcat's Den. There is no admission fee. WIA Sports Central's Women's Intramural Association has opened its win­ ter basketball season with nine student teams and one faculty team slated to compete twice a week in Nicholson Pavilion.

Small claims court has solution to legal hassles Thursday, January 24,1974—CAMPUS CRIER— Page 17 by Paddy Cottrell managing editor Editor's note: The following is the second story in a two-part series on small claims court. The first article was carried in last, week's Crier. The quick, cheap form of justice offered by the small claims court seems to be received pretty well by people that have had experience with the court. The judges, clerks, plaintiffs and defendents interviewed by this writer, in general have had quite favorable exper­ iences with the "do-it-yourself" style of justice. This court is a means whereby people having a dispute over money can take their arguments before a judge, without lawyers present, to have their disagree­ ment settled in open court. One party must file a claim against the other party for any amount under $300. Both parties are notified of the trial date and the court will rule, on the dispute. The beauty of the small claims court is its simplicity. It only costs $1 to file, plus a small sheriffs service charge to serve the other party with notice of the complaint. The sheriffs charge is usually under $2 and is refundable along with the filing fee if the person wins his case. In Kittitas County the small claims dis­ putes are heard on Mondays at 10 a.m. and are open to the public. According to Kathy Christensen, civil deputy, about 5-15 cases are heard each month. . Ms. Christensen is the person who helps people fill out small claims forms. She .advises persons wanting to file in small claims to bring with them the name of the person they are suing, his address, the amount the person wants to collect and the reason he owes the stated amount. "The address is especially important, so that the sheriff can know where to serve the papers," says Ms. Christensen. The civil deputy explains that after the plaintiff files the defendent must make an appearance before her and formally deny the charges brought. After that Ms. Christensen says it's approximately one month before the case is heard. Judge John Thomas is the man that hears the cases in the Lower Kittitas County District Court, as the small claims court is called. He advises that a person need not be experienced in law to win a case in small claims. "About the only thing that's really neccessary is to be able to tell a connected story," explained the judge. "Oh sure, it would be much more ideal if every person that came before every court had a legal education, but it's not that neccessary," he said. In addition to his law practice, Judge Thomas presides over the small claims court, the justice civil court and traffic court. "In small claims court the judge intrudes himself much more than in regular court to explain to each party what he can and can not do," said the judge. The law officer says that all the same rules of evidence apply that apply in regular court, though they're not quite as stereotyped. He says he does not allow heresay or letters that are from a third party. The letters cannot be cross-examin- ed he explained. Judge Thomas observes that the small claims court serves a purpose "where the amount involved would make it unfeasible, to have an attorney prepare the case." "Small claims is no panacea though," adds the judge, "its decisions are purely advisory." The county lawyer explains that small. claims court decisions are not legally enforcable until they become a decision of the higher, regular district court. From his experience, Judge Thomas roughly estimates that 80 per cent of the court's decisions are paid without further action. A small claims decision says only that "the judge believes that the one party is indebted to another in an certain amount," said Judge Thomas, who terms the small claims judgement, "a debt with a blessing." For the small amount of people that don't pay the judgement, the plaintiff can fill out a form at the court house that makes the small claims judgement a judgement of the district court, according to Ms. Christensen. The fee for this is $6. Rod Lalley, director of the alumni office, is one person who has had experience in small claims court as the defendent. He was sued by a wrecking company that wanted to collect a fee that Lalley thought was injustice. In court, Lalley accused the wrecker of "attempting to steal my car, overcharging me by $30-40, using a dolly unnecessarily, and driving recklessly." In summary, Lalley's story went like this: His car had a flat tire on the Yakima highway and he could not change it because the lug nut was on to tight. He called a towing company, who estimated the job would cost $35, so the alumni director went with him to the car. From there the towing company used the wrong tool on the nut and then according to Lalley put a dolly on the car, drove at excessive speeds and dropped the car causing approximately $30 damage to the paint job. Lalley was a bit perturbed at the action of the towing company, but not half as much as when the man announced that Lalley's bill would be $75. After checking with other towing companies in the area and getting an estimate on the damage to his car Lalley stopped payment on the check for the bill. As a result the towing company tried to take Lalley's car from the company that was painting it, only to be stopped by the VSSAV. Mi j c wwmm* •:WK®:WS 1*1 smm mmm §Wt|jIg •fiWW. proprietor of that company. After no mutually acceptable deal could be worked out between Lalley and the towing company, the company sued in small claims. "On paper we lost the case, but we didn't really," said Lalley who was very pleased with the out come of his case. The towing company had sued for $75, but they only received a small part of that, about $15 recalls Lalley. The judge had ruled the fee was too high and lowered it to a more reasonable figure and then subtracted $30 from that for the paint job Lalley had as a result of the towing company's carelessness. "The judge was very fair," said the alumni director. 'It's my personal re­ commendation that anyone who feels they have a case should not be intimidated, if they have the evidence and support for the case." Lalley says that people have an obligation and a responsibility to stand up to store owners, car dealers and the like who take advantage of the public. He urges people who have the need, not to be afraid to use small claims court. This writer fully concurs. An exper­ ience with a boss that did not pay the wages that were due, made this writer a convert of the "do-it-yourself' style of justice. A boss that announced a bonus system that meant a reduction in the agreed upon wage was the source of the rub. Later when this writer and his wife quit, his wife- was informed that she was going to have a bonus deducted from her salary in her last check. This was the first time such a "bonus" was ever mentioned. A small claims judge ruled that not all of this was fair and gave us a judgement for a portion of our claim. We were both satisfied. Small claims can give one a great sense of accomplishment, that he can participate in the system of justice, that he need not accept unfair treatment, that not all the cards are stacked against the little guy.

Thursday, January 24,1974 —CAMPUS CRIER— Page 19 I " f" „ wmmMmum wmmmmm , J """" 1 "uauiu. *, ' ' t in ' ® ' * .4fe~ :•:&&£: Skid row is gone and in its place rises an environmental world's fair-Expo '74, which runs from May 4 to Nov. 3. They will all have space on two small islands in the Spokane river and along its banks, in a 100-acre, half water-half land area that once typified inner city decay. All this has disappeared. Where once locomotives chuffed into two obsolete sta­ tions on a sprawl of tracks, an opera house, new pavilions and a new city park are materializing. The impulse to clean up the area came about three years ago and first thing anybody knew the project grew into a world's fair sanctioned by the 36-nation Bur­ eau of International Expositions in Paris. Through purchases, lease and outright gift, the Expo 74 Corporation (a non-profit firm) obtained the island-and-river- front site. Construction got underway early in 1973. Expo '74 has been designated as an official Bicentennial Cele­ bration event and it is said to be the first such fair to have a theme: Celebrating Tomorrow's Fresh, New Environment. "We want the exhibits to be environmental in thrust," said King F. Cole, president of the Expo '74 Corporation. The site is bristling with new buildings-the temporary ply­ wood and metal modules for concessions and foreign exhibits and the two permanent build­ ings, the Washington State pavil­ ion and the US pavilion, all more than 85 per cent completed. Total expenditures are expec­ ted to amount to about $76 million. The showpiece will be the $13,000,000 US pavilion-a gigan­ tic big-top of coated vinyl stretched up 145 feet on a center pole from two semi-circular base buildings. The Commerce De­ partment will sponsor exhibits in it. Expo '74, operating as it is under BIE rules, rates a US Commissioner, and President Nixon gave the job to Philadel­ phia lawyer J. Welles Hender­ son. The prist carries with it ambassadorial rank. One of Expo's problems: "Spo­ kane? Where's that?" Moreover, there seems to be a universal proclivity to mispronounce the word [it's Spo-can, not Spo-cane], even among Americans. And there's a tendency to confuse Spokane with Seattle, which ran one of the few financially successful world's fairs anywhere, in 1962. Canada at first announced that it would set up a pavilion on the smaller island in the river (Cannon Island) at a cost of about $1.8 million, but in July, much to the dismay of fair officials, Ottawa backed out. The provincial government of British Columbia took exception, however, and ultimately succeed­ ed in getting Ottawa to bring Canada back in. Remote though it may be, Spokane was no mystery to the Russians-they were among the first to agree to take part and their pavilion will be the biggest foreign one at the exposition, 52,000 square feet. This is the first time the Soviet Union has participated in such a fair in thjp United States since the late 1^30's. Officials estimate that about 4.8 millioii people will come to the fair. That compares with about 50 million at Montreal in 1967 and With about 9.6 million at Seattle in 1962. Requests for information about lodging are running to nearly 20$ a day~25 per cent from California, 13 per cent from Washington State and 32 per cent from ekst of the Mississippi. Latecomers will be able to get accommodations, Edmunds said, but they will have to drive sometimes ai far as 75 miles from Spokane to find them. Hospitality Services is acting as central reservation agent and there is no. charge for the services. Edrfiunds urged the public to order space early. What the visitors will see when they get there will be the latest in what the establishment is doing about cleaning up the environment. The US pavilion will set the tone: exhibits will show the dimensions of the problems and describe solutions industry and government have come up with. Visitors will be able to frolic in what will be the world's most modern and spectacular amuse­ ment park. Rides and other equipment worth $2 million are now being built in Europe, and when the Expo fair is over, it will all be sent to Israel, where it will be set up as a permanent amusement park. Top-flight entertainers will also be appearing throught the fair-Bob Hope, Lawrence Welk, the Carpenters, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Gordon Light- foot and many others. Van Cliburn has also signed. When it's all over next year, Spokane will have cleaned up the inner city and it will have gained a downtown park, an opera house and the two ultra-modern build­ ings of the US pavilion. And Spokane's place on the map will be more secure and maybe everybody will learn to pronounce it Spo-can. it out.
