Paid leaves being investigated & By DAVID P AYSON Paid administrative and faculty leave policies of Central and the five other state institutions of higher learning have come under investigation by two State Senate committees. According to a Jan. 20 Seattle Post-Intelligencer article, the leave policies of state-funded col­ leges and universities are costing the state more than $2.5 million annually.

Attorneys are not cheap and criminal records are not healthy to have. Palethorp said, "33 million A- mericans are using marijuana and law enforcement officers are doing very little prosecuting." On college campuses about 85 percent of all students have tried marijuana. Removal of all criminal penalties for the private possession and use of marijuana has been endorsed or recommended by the American Bar Association, the American Public Health Association, the National Council of Churches and the National Education Associa­ tion. By mid-1978 eight states had changed' their laws and no longer treated possession of a small quantity of marijuana as a criminal act.

When asked of his feelings on the State Senate investigation into this matter, he responded, "If the legislature is concerned I think the investigation will be a good thing, because it will demonstrate, at least in the case of faculty leaves, that the colleges and universities have been following the CPE guidelines. I have no fear about our program standing up. We've followed legislative intent." But Edward Harrington, vice- Harrington said the purpose of president of academic affairs, who faculty leave is to keep faculty is the administrator in charge of members on the "cutting-edge" of faculty leaves at Central, disputed this report that the CPE guide­ lines have expires. "They're wrong," he said. "Somebody got it wrong, and now it's being reprinted wrong all over the state. The CPE guidelines still exist, and we're expected to follow them in our faculty leave policies. And we do." He explained that as a safeguard these CPE guidelines have been "built into" the Faculty Code, part of which contains this college's rules for faculty leave policies. "If there ever was any question or investigation, we wanted to be in a position to say we followed them," he said, speaking of the CPE guidelines. With that investigation now a_ reality, Harrington said he thinks the brunt of the legislative scru­ tiny will fall on the state colleges' and the universities' administra- openings JCC Central's Joint Committees on Committees (JCC) will soon be peti­ tioning for members to participate in its near 22 various committee openings on campus. Founded in 1974 by Tom Dudley, the then administrative vice presi­ dent of Central's student govern­ ment, the JCC's main purpose is to recruit and appoint students to com­ mittees and other student body positions. The adminstrative represen­ tative of the JCC is Don Wise. He acts as an advisor and carries voting rights in matters concerning the committee. Usually a member of a comm- mittee serves for a full academic year. However, should a student leave and vacate his position, the spot often goes unfilled for the remainder of the year. Number of people involved in the committees vary due to the need in a specific area. For example with the Joint Student Fees committee, there are three faculty and four students who participate in the decisions of that committee. Other committees may lend themselves only to two or three members. In order to participate in a com­ mittee on campus, the student must have at least a 2.0 gpa and be a full- time student. The person's interests and past activities are also taken into account when a student applies for one of the committee openings.

Following .are some pertinent points concerning Central's faculty leave policies, as taken from the (Cont. on pg. 7) Rich Dietz, chairperson of the BOC said that his experiences in working with the BOC and other committees has been a "growth period, where there have been chances to make mistakes and grow by it." He added that the work has been an education through the prac­ tical and field experience involved in his job with the BOC and associa­ tion with the JCC. Dietz also said that the com­ mittees "tie three facets together on campus the students, faculty and administration." Information pertaining to the different committees is forwarded to Dietz from President Brooks* office. A lot of the information arriving at the BOC office has no value to many of the students, ad­ mits Dietz,.but that which is impor­ tant is then forwarded to the various committees. The committee meetings are gen­ erally open to the public, however, many are not publicized. A new committee in the JCC is the ASC Committee on legislation and political activity. Its purpose will be to maintain student involvement and awareness of current legis­ lation and political activity within the student's interest realm. The number of people involved will be determined by the JCC upon the committee's need. The chair­ person will report to the JCC, as much each chairperson, the ac­ tivities and their findings and con­ cerns. The various listings of committee openings will be posted at a later date in the Campus Crier. * w&m mm HIGH STEPPER — Jay Ollred has his own special way of repairing the roof of KCWS radio station.

Campus Crier Feb. 10, 1977' page 2 U status bill goes to floor THE BIGr NAME CHANGE frift Begone By ROSEHULSMAN Central is, by definition, a uni­ versity, and for 12 years now President James Brooks has been working on a proposal to obtain university status. There are several reasons why Central should be called a univer­ sity instead of a college. First of all, the students would benefit from the name change becausetheir post-graduation move into the job market would enable them to secure jobs more readily. Secondly, non-state or federal funding of state colleges and their instructional programs and re­ search would be enhanced through the university title. Another advantage of the change would be student and faculty recruitment and retention at state colleges. Also, community or junior col­ leges have dropped those clas­ sifications from their titles, thus, providing them with better sound- ing'status. This being the case, students and out-of-state institu­ tions find it difficult to differen­ tiate between educational institu­ tions when all are named colleges. For example: Centralia College, Olympic College, Clark College, Highline college and Yakima Val­ ley College have all dropped the "community." In this country, the term college is used to describe community colleges, schools within universi­ ties, or four-year schools with no graduate work. This proposal, Bill 20-85, has been passed by the Senate higher education committee and went to the floor on Monday. It is not yet known when the bill goes before the House and Senate, but if approved, Central should have University status by Sept. 1,1977. When asked why the American Association of State Colleges, and Universities (AASCU) had withheld the university title from Central, Brooks said, "Because of U//l5^/0S7a/v) -STatc c»u«.. A ffer...

Vocational Students today seem reluctant brainwashing has aided in fixing but put up a defending action and try to maintain what he's got," said Larry Lawrence, who served between 1972 and 1976 as chair­ person of the english department at Central. Lawrence referred to the lack of funds "for new people and new programs. I had to act in letting four people go from the faculty and couldn't replace them because there wasn't any funds and the* enrollment in. the department is declining." "There isn't much challenge in the job because you are just trying to maintain what you've got," he said. "The chairman is kind of a middle man bringing bad news from the . state legislature and Central administration to the fac­ ulty. "Four years is enough of that sort of thing," Lawrence said, and added that the rising amount of paper work that must be done by the chairperson also "makes the job less attractive." He explained that most heads of departments "are academic people and the statistics and information demanded by state agencies" isn't adding- to the enjoyment of the office. "However, no one is to blame because money is short in this state," Lawrence said. "Tljere seems to be a declining interest paid to humanities by both the students and the government.'* He no immediate benefits as far as qualifying them for a job," he said. According to Lawrence, there is a greater sense of helplessness in the job and tedium in the work to be done "but it is important and someone has to do it.

Another problem noted is that the faculty member can teach less in his specialties than in the past. "The teacher has been prepared to teach specific subjects but with want to serve beyond one four year term." "There is unpleasantness in the fact that the chairman must de­ fend the actions of the administra­ tion before the faculty and also the importance of the faculty before the administration." He said the travel budget for the department "went' from $3,000 when I began four and one-half years ago to $50 in my last year."

"And if the money is available, the chairman can do some good for faculty members in-getting pro­ motions and merit increases for deserving teachers."

Reed, however, said there By CLINT ROBBINS Calling the system a co-sponsor­ ship, Central Board of Control (BOC) Chairperson Stu McMullen, said the BOC works with any recognized club at Central in the allocation of funds to the club. "As long as the club is non- religous and non-political," Mc­ Mullen said, "it can approach the BOC and request sponsorship in its event. "Some years ago when the clubs were recognized as an element of the BOC," he continued, "a few of the clubs were misusing their funding, so the Board of Trustees decided to institute the system we have now." McMullen said $4000 is available this year for the clubs and ex­ plained, "We have two areas in which the money is divided to be drawn from, a $2000 pot for advertising and events less that $20 and another $2000 pot for requests of over $20." "The first pot may be drawn from by a club as often as it likes throughout the year as long as it dosn't exceed $60," McMullen no­ ted. "This can be used for advertising and must show that the event is co-sponsored by the BQC and the club." "The second pot allows the club to make a profit and most of the events are on a net profit basis," he said. "If there is a loss for the event, it will not hurt the club." McMullen pointed out that co- sponsored events such as the showing of films by a club enables the club to get the theater rooms rent-free. "Sometimes we don't make or get all of the money back from the event but we try to provide entertainment for stu­ dents." He said there is no set budget for the clubs because of the Board of Trustee's decision several years ago. "We wanted to give the money on the basis of the size of the club but we were unable to do that," McMullen said. "It is gettingfough now to get money from the BOC," he said, "but any recognized club can certainly make a request." cashier takes in all of the money," An Inter-Club Council exists to McMullen said.

He said the prices for the bands performing range between $350 and $1000 and that $625 "is about the average price for a good band to play at Central."

"This. new parking lot was constructed mainly for pick up and delivery zones," said Charles Gruhl, acting director for the facilities, planning and construction depart­ ment. "There are approximately 35 metered zones for students who wish to use the library facilities," said Gruhl. Last year petitions were passed around campus in favor of devel­ oping the land north bf the library into a parking lot. At the time the closest parking lots were on "D" street or in front of the Pavillion. The petitions said that when a student checks out equipment from the library there was never any legal place to park within comfortable walking dis­ tance. while. "The meters are very reason­ able: one cent for 12 minutes on up to a dime for two hours," said Gruhl. "The lot is not for students who do not want to purchase a parking sticker." In addition to the meters at the north lot, parking meters have been reinstalled in the lot across from Shaw-Smyser, so access to Mitchell Hall will be easier. Thelot formerly was only for faculty and handicapped persons. "The parking facilities are "ex­ pected to be stable for about five years now," said Charles Gruhl. "We have long range plans for new parking facilities but for now Central is looking good in that area." Schliesman, dean of undergrad­ uate studies, V. Gerald Reed, director of the adademic advise­ ment center and Rich Dietz, chairman of the BOC. Reed has already completed a survey of over 140 faculty re­ sponses "on various amounts of academic advisement they recom­ mend" and is currently seeking the opinion of students by means of a questionnaire to be circulated in the near future. Schliesman, Reed and Dietz have expressed concern over many students' problems and dif­ ficulties directly related to a lack of academic counseling. They said students are often unaware or confused about mat­ ters including undergraduate re­ quirements for their particular majors, sequence courses and gen­ eral college requirements. The coordinators believe with added advisement most of these prob­ lems could be eliminated. The Western Washington State Col­ lege, Washington StateUniversity and the University of Washington all have some type of required advisement, ranging from advise­ ment at certain points to man­ datory advisement every quarter for each student. Some of these schools employ professional counseling staffs to perform the advisement function, whereas other schools rely on faculty for the bulk of the counseling workload. Schliesman prefers a faculty oriented advise­ ment program. The final policy confirmation of any proposal now being considered will rest with the Faculty Senate and the Vice-President's Advisory Council, said Schliesman. He said the Board of Trustees would probably not be involved unless President Brooks, for some rea­ son, specifically requests the issue go before them. l | *DELl| 7th I •»» Great Sandwiches hrs- M-Th 11 am-8 pm 925-4779 F & S 10 am-9 pm Next to the Liqour Store •I THE * ! &S& t * * { * * * * * * * « * * * •t * BURGER Buy 1 and get second burger for only ^ 0Q so bring a friend Expires March 27, 1977 HICKORY SMOKED CHEESE Reg. 2-49/16 NOW 1.99/16 % k * A * ****** AAA*********••••*•••»•••••••••*•**••••J !

Plea for students to unite Like students everywhere, we at the Univ. of Washington are angry over the proposed tuition hike and are determined to fight against it. It will force many of us at the UW out of school altogether, and for those of us fortunate enough to remain in school, we will, in many cases, have to work more hours or go more into debt to pay for it. We won't sacrifice our education to the interests of Boeing, Weyer- hauser and the rest of big business and industry that the legislature represents. For them, every dollar more that we pay in higher tuition means one dollar less that they have to spend on education and can use for something more profitable. And particularly now, they are forced by the economic crisis to do this. As part of our fight against the tuition hike, the Revolutionary Stu­ dent Brigade (RSB), along with other groups and individuals, is building for a big "Speak Out" against the tuition hike. This will be held on Wednesday, Feb. 9th at 12:30 in the HUB. This "Speak Out" will enable students from the UW to speak out against the hike and see that they are not alone in their opposition to the attack on our education or the willingness to fight it. By presenting an organized show of strength and opposition to the hike, the "Speak Out" will put the legislature on notice as to what students think and what we intend to do about it. But even more importantly, the "Speak Out" will show fellow students that we do have the strength and unity to fight back, and rely on ourselves to fight for what we need. We hope, too, that this "Speak Out" will help build for something much bigger, like — demonstrations in Olympia and on our own campuses, state-wide arm­ band days, etc. If possible, we would like to see students on campuses throughout Washington plan to hold similar actions to mobilize students where you are, and to make a greater impact in uniting students state­ wide around our common fight. Only by uniting and mobilizing as many students as possible and tak­ ing unified action can we stop the hike. (We are having press cover­ age for these events and we have notified the legislators, but they said they are too busy.)

Students of the ' Revolutionary Student Brigade DofvT vou cocR&y '&OHT A THf/vCr wdRB5 Of A 50t\(r..^(5 J0WO BR0u)riiidh_ Stu McMullen State's students I ucky This state really understands the importance of higher educa­ tion! They are so aware of the necessity of keeping costs low so that all people are able to attend, that they haven't instituted a tuition and fee increase since 1971. In fact, tuition for university students in this state ranks as low as 33rd in a national comparison. The state colleges rank 24th in the nation. There are some sound argu­ ments for having the state main­ tain this fervent committment to low tuition levels. Some people simply believe, even in the ab- sense of tangible, engirical evi­ dence,. that a more educated society makes for a better, more aware democratic society. Those who are more concerned about long-term economic impact. realize that those who finish college in this state, return the investment the state made toward their education six times over!! In addition, there are many citizens of this state who are concerned about continuing to break down past barriers to op­ portunities such as post-secondary education/Most specifically, some 9,000 students fit state criteria needs for money last year, but were not able to get it because of lack of available state support. The state realizes there are many needy students here who would be hurt by any increased costs. Financial aid isn't the only answer—low tuition levels insure continuation of breaking down discrimination barriers. The present system allows stu­ dents to openly converse with legislators about their financial circumstances. This means that elected officials are able to keep in touch with students' concerns-a group that makes up a good percentage of the voting age citizenry. Students are now able to get valuable information to legisla­ tors—such as the fact that while the average cost of living increase in Washingtori since 1971 was 3$ per, costs affecting students went up 43 per cent. (CPE report) Students in Washington State feel extremely fortunate. The}* live in a state that places high priority on the value of higher education. We're likely to stick around after we get our degree? and reinvest our talents, income and mindn for many years to come' in gratitude for this committment. AFT gives scholarship A $300 scholarship, to be awarded each year to an outstanding stu­ dent for use in his senior year, has been established by Central's divi­ sion of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT). The scholarship is designed to aid the outstanding student active in college affairs, according to Cen­ tral AFT. Members of the federa­ tion said they hope the scholarship will prove another way by which the college's most serious and con­ scientious students might be recog­ nized: The Financial Aid Office wil£ receive applications and present the AFT with the names of the quali­ fied candidates, explained the federation. The scholarship recip® ient will be chosen by a committee of Central's AFT. Further details of the selection, process will be announced later bj£ Central's AFT.

.Campus Crier Feb. 10,1977 page 5 To the editor X-rated is sinful After a few days of diligent thought, I came to the realization that a stand in opposition to x-rated movies being shown in the SUB was not only necessary but required of all Christians. It is time to stop shaking our heads and proclaiming how deca­ dent our nation has become and start manifesting this opposition in the hope that something positive for mankind will come out of it. The showing of x-rated films in the SUB is totally a mammoth step for the opposition. It's almost unbelievable that this type of trash is being allowed on the college campus. What makes it believable is the power the op­ position can wield to what's good. What was once assigned to a few sleezy sections of suburbia is now a part of the rural college scene. What we are experiencing is not only a moral decay, but most critical of all, a spiritual decay. X-rated movies may come under the guise of freedom of expression, but this freedom won't guarantee anything but instant, indecent , gratification. The time is now to halt this decay and to speak out against this obvious evil element. Blake D. Martin Political Science BOC jobs are open Early last year, the student body of El Paso University elected their student senate, a hamster. At first, this may seem funny but the fun doesn't, stop there. At the University of Wisconsin, a young man by the name of Peter Wagner formed the Tupperware Party. Wagner ran on a campaign that if he won their election for student body president, he would immediately leave town. Upon being elected he quickly trans­ ferred to the University of Min­ nesota. At first this seems to be a rather funny and quite comical way of showing lack of concern for stu­ dent government. When you stop to realize these incidences are becoming more and more regular t on campuses across the nation, one should begin to wonder why. Don't students give a damn about what their student govern­ ment is doing? Or, an even better question: do students know what their student government is doing? We may never know the answer to - these, or many of the other questions asked by students and those elected by them. We (at Central) have an unusual system of government. Three years ago the students voted to change the more traditional stu­ dent roles to what was felt to be a more representative form of gov­ ernment. At Central we now have a Board of Control (BOC). The BOC serves as a representative of the students in administrative, legislative and policy making ways. There is a B0VC representative at many of the administrative meet­ ings including: Presidents Advis­ ory, Board of Trustees and meet­ ing of the Faculty Senate. Stu­ dents fought hard in the past to get these positions so students have something to say about what happens on this campus. Students also serve on many other committees which have a direct influence on this campus: There are students serving on: Student Publications Committee, Joint Student Fees, Campus Safe­ ty, Campus Site and Development, Campus Judicial Council, Traffic and the Board of Academic Ap­ peals. Yet there are still many other committees asking for stu­ dents to help them discover stu­ dents' needs and desires, as well as those who would simply like input on their ideas. Committees are not the only place where students who care and have interests can provide input. The BOC, for example, meets regularly. This quarter they will hold meetings once a week on Thursdays at 2 in the SUB. Another very important way students can become involved is through the student government programming agency. The pro­ gramming agency is involved on a daily basis, in preparing programs for the students of Central. Help is always needed in preparing the activity as well as the need for student input into ideas for what to bring to this campus. The programming agency is divided into five major areas: Concerts Committee (Ben Smith), Special Events Committee (Jeff Threatt), Films Committee (Dale Garrison), Dance Committee (Sylvia Luckett) and Publicity Committee (Karie Hamilton). Students are chosen to serve as chairpersons of these committees not to do all of the work. Currently, nearly all the work being done is by the commit­ tee chairpeople. They need stu­ dents to help out, to get things done as they ought to be. After all, with more input we could have a greater variety and more social activities on this campus. This article cannot help student government hear you, it cannot give the input you've wanted to give for so long. All this article can do is to show you how you can put forth the effort, if you want to, and any one who goes to Central should want to be involved in the making of decisions that can have affect on them. If you are interested, if you want to help, get up off your apathy and visit the ASC office in the SUB or call them at 963-1691. Anytime you can spare would be time well spent. Dave Thomason ASC BOC Dorm life is groovy This letter is in rebuttal of an article written by Stu McMullen in the Jan. 27 Crier. •- He stated in his article that there was no educational value in the dorms, and that the dorms were not conducive to the educa­ tional process. He went further and stated that if the housing policy had been changed, one Central student would not have died in a fire last year. First, I'd like to know how McMullen, who has never lived on campus at Central can even have an opinion that is credible and second, McMullen made several statements that were totally er­ roneous. . To make you aware, McMullen, there are dorms on campus that are working on growth and educa­ tion, i.e., working with the senior citizens in Ellensburg, also work­ ing with the youth in the com­ munity by helping with youth basketball programs and earlier in the year by sponsoring the Ellens­ burg Haunted House. There are also dorms that have speakers come and give insight in their related fields. In this respect, I feel that the dorms are doing a better job than ASC. Campus living can, be a very educational experience, both in the areas I have spoken about and also in learning about ourselves, and how to relate and live closely with other people. Chances are, the person you are living with off campus is a close friend that you met while living on campus. Sure there are parties on cam­ pus, but there are parties off cam­ pus too. There are parties in "Olympia", parties at "Mt. • Rainier". People get blitzed in "Heidelberg" and sometimes they get "Lucky". So McMullen, tough "Schlitz". Maybe next week you can go hunting for the elusive "Sidehill Dodger" with Mickey Rooney. At least then you could write about something that you have experienced. Finally, it is my feeling that if the housing policy was changed to allow students to live off campus, you would still have students living in rundown housing because of pure economic reasons. It is my opinion that you should redirect your efforts to where they are needed. Get the city to inspect housing around the city and force the landlords to make these houses suitable and safe for our students to live in. It is my opinion that a person should be free to live where he chooses, but dorms offer a viable alternative and offer educational and living experiences that you will never receive elsewhere. Re­ member a wise man once said, "What you learn in the classroom of this institution will get you through college, but what you learn outside the classroom will get you through life." Thank you, Barry Baker Drugs a no-no Articles recently appearing in The Ellensburg Daily Record, Cam­ pus Crier, and The Ellensburg High School Alutant cannot be left unan-. swered. The point at hand is rela­ tive to the subject of drug ab -se. Some of the greatest frauds afoot today would like us to be duped into believing that drug usage is a proof of "freedom" (see Jan. 20 Crier, page 2) or doesn't "hurt anybody" (see Dec. 10 Alutant, page 8). Both articles contain clear and subtle — even hidden — overtones of defi­ ance to the laws of the State of Washington as well as federal laws. I urge all citizens concerned about drug abuse and related crimes to begin a letter writing campaign this week to state legislators, congress­ men, and Governor Ray opposing the legalization or lessening of pun­ ishment for crimes related to drug abuse. Washington is a "target state" and Feb. 7 is "D-Day" as an­ nounced by state and national pres­ sure groups (NORML and the ACLU) stated in the articles appearing in local newspapers. What the United States and Wash­ ington in particular doesn't need are more wasted minds, mangled bodies and homes and families im­ paired or destroyed in the guise of freedom. Please write today. Thank you, Blair L. Gleed Gym use unfair An incident happened on Satur­ day, Jan. 29, that I would like to bring to the immediate attention of the student body at Central. Allow me to set the stage. The women's varsity basketball team scheduled to play a game around 12:30 p.m. on the aforementioned Saturday. Meanwhile, in the up­ stairs gym were approximately 50 people, among which I was one, who were going to play their regular weekend pick-up basketball game. This approximated number is very deceiving because on a typical Saturday when the main gym floor is open, some 150 players pass in and out of the gym. But one thing stood out to make this particular Saturday different from the rest — we weren't allowed to play basket­ ball because of the women's game. But my question is why ? Granted, that women should have equal rights and equal privileges the same as those of the men. Granted, that they should also be allowed to schedule and use the main gym floor for their home games. But why should a minority group of people have such total control and dominance over a majority group in another part of the gym who aren't affecting them? There were less spectators than there were basket­ ball players. (Cont. on pg. 15) DON'T FORGET!!!

jricnnni /|H,VES./tl\iaTH£R. QMWKiknoi.) Qampus Crier Feb. 10,1977 page 7 (cpneff u ire (Coht. from pg. 1) m Faculty Code: (1) To be eligible for professional Jeave, a faculty member must have been employed by the college for m six calendar years and have served eighteen full-time quarters during that time. (2) Replacements for persons on • professional leave should ordinar­ ily take place within existing -faculty. (3) No more than 1.0 to 3.5 • percent of the faculty shall be on professional leave at any one time. (4) Professional leave may be granted for one, two or three quarters and must normally be taken in consecutive quarters of the same academic year. • (5) Faculty members on profes­ sional leave must return to service for at least one academic year following their leave. If they do » not, they shall be. liable for repayment of the salary and fringe benefits paid them during the leave period. * (6) A Professional Leave Com­ mittee (PLC), composed of ten­ ured, full-time faculty members and selected by the Vice President of Academic Affairs in consulta­ tion with the Academic Dean and the Faculty Senate Executive # Committee, shall evaluate applica­ tions for professional leave and decide upon the eligibility of can­ didates. * (7) The PLC's final recommen­ dations for faculty members re­ questing professional leave shall # be presented to the Vice-President of Academic Affairs, who in turn shall present the recommenda­ tions to the college president and # the Board of Trustees (BOT) for final approval. Harrington said once the PLC has made its final recommenda­ tions and these have been passed through him to the president and the Board of Trustees for final approval, the BOT takes more than just a passing interest in the leave candidates. "They've never just taken a list and approved it," he said. "They've always asked me questions, very specific questions about what the faculty members are going to be doing on leave and where they're going. The BOT takes a great interest in this process." Harrington said 24 applications were filed this year for leave and 12 were approved. "The PLC. recommended them in priority order," he said. "We could give 12. We took the top 12." " Figures provided by Harring­ ton's office show that these 12 people will receive a total of $156,365 while on professional leave for this school year. This figure represents the actual cost to the college. It does not include any outside funds that the faculty members may be rewarded while on leave. The Faculty Code shows the salary scale for faculty members awarded professional leave to be as follows: 1 quarter-50 percent of salary 2 quarters-66 2/3 percent of salary 3 quarters~75 percent of salary In most cases, this college's Faculty Code for professional leave closely follows the CPE guidelines. But there is one difference, con­ cerning the salary ceiling awarded to faculty members on leave. The CPE guidelines' item num­ ber 12 reads: "The sum of the pro­ fessional leave salary and addi­ tional funds in the form of grants SUB fire may cause budget curtailments and stipends shall not exceed the amount of the normally contracted salary for the period of the leave." Regarding the same subject, Central's Faculty Code reads: "The sum of the salary during the professional leave, together with remuneration for any other ser­ vices, grants, scholarships, etc., received during professional leave, shall not exceed 135 percent of the salary the faculty member on leave could have expected to receive had he not taken profes­ sional leave unless approved by the Board of Trustees." In other words, this college's Faculty Code shows a 35 percent high salary ceiling- than the 100 percent ceiling set forth by the CPE guidelines. When Harrington's office was contacted about this difference, he was out of town and unavailable for comment, but his secretary agreed to help. Obtaining copies of the CPE guidelines and the Faculty Code, she made the com­ parison herself and arrived at the same conclusion-that Central's sal­ ary ceiling was 35 percent higher than the CPE's.. "It's true," she said. "But I don't know why. I'm not aware of any cases where members of our faculty on professional leave have received more than 100 percent of their normal salary." T. ** On Feb. z, members of a Senate-House Higher Education Committee held a hearing. Ad­ dressing their questions to Ever­ green's Board of Trustees, the Solons wanted to know the details behind the hiring of Evergreen's new president, Dan Evans, as well as the conditions of the liberal terminal leave awarded to out­ going president, Charles McCann. By GARY FISHER The fire in June that damaged the SUB may cause budget cuts. At that time, damage was estimated at a half , million dollars. But later estimates have pushed the figure past the $7,000,000 figure. According to preliminary proof of loss statements, the insured loss for the SUB is about $600,000 and the uninsured loss about $102,000. Bill Allison, business manager for Central, said, "These estimates are preliminary. We won't know the final damage figure until the final proof of loss statement is submitted to the insurance com­ pany in late March." President Brooks requested e- mergency funding from Gov. Ev­ ans, but Evans turned down the request saying, "The SUB is a sell-supporting auxiliary enter­ prise activity, and therefore does not qualify for emergency fund- in*. Restoration of the SUB and the bookstore was done in two phases. Phase One involved scrubbing the walls, painting, taking down draperies arid hauling out junk. Phase Two involved the actual reconstruction of the SUB and bookstore. Charles Gruhl, facilities and construction officer said, "Both phases of reconstruction are being handled by the Division of En­ gineering and Architecture, coor­ dinated by Arden Steinhars. The actual work is being done by a private contractor." According to a claim filed with the insurance company, the pre­ liminary damage estimate to the bookstore is $194,039. Tom Hruska, bookstore man­ ager said, "We are covered by stock insurance. After the fire our staff went through the store and tried to reconstruct an inventory of stock consumed by the fire." He continued, "We arrived at an estimate, submitted the dollar fig­ ure to the insurance company and they accepted it." In a letter from Wendell Hill to Bill Allison, Hill said, "Equipment and fixtures in the bookstore were not insured, and the replacement will have to be paid from book­ store funds." According to insurance records, the bookstore had a $40,000 unin­ sured loss. Hruska said, "Yes, we did have a loss but we bought back the fire damaged merchandise so we could make it available to local patrons and try to recoup some of the loss." He added, "The bookstore is going to incur a loss, how much, I don't know at this time. I will have to wait until the sales figures come in from the fire sale before anything can be determined." "As it stands now, financially I don't think we are going to have a problem." A final damage estimate for the bookstore won't be known until late March, when a proof of loss statement is submitted to the ' insurance company. Don Wise, associate dean of students activities, said, "Many of the things lost in the fire are not going to be replaced. "Since we did not get any emergency funding, money used for replacing lost furnishings will come from the equipment reserve fund," he said. Wise added, "Because the e- quipment reserve fund will be depleted, we will have to take money from the joint student fees and put it back into the equipment 1 reserve fund to bolster it." Allison agrees, "We will have to take money out of operating incomes from the auxiliary enter­ prises at Central," he said. "These enterprises include the SUB and bookstore operations." "We don't expect any money from Gov. Ray because of her recent budget and spending freez­ es," Allison said. JohnDrinkwater,executive man­ ager for ASC, said, "There will be a squeeze in joint student fees budget to put money back into the equipment reserve fund." Drinkwater added, "A reality ot it, yes, there will be budget cuts. How much I don't know. It will depend on spring quarter enroll­ ment and how much money is budgeted to joint student fees." To further complicate matters. Gov. Ray clamped down on state spending, throwing the budget sys­ tem into a state of confusion. What and how much money is going to be cut from budgets is not known yet because of the freeze. The only thing to do is wait until spring quarter and see what hap­ pens — hopefully not much will.

Campus Crier Feb. 10, 1977 page 8 Arts & Entertainment Few gather for Jazz Night By MICHELLE BRUNSON To coin a phrase, "save the best for last," was certainly true for Jazz Combo Night held last Friday evening. Of the four groups, the last to per­ form, "With Ears," lead by Bob Panerio, had a definite ear for music and captured the most applause from the audience. Their set of five songs included four com­ positions from members of the group. Chuncks by Bob Panerio, incor­ porated an excelling saxophone solo by Greg Burhe and a bass solo by Wally Ausser. It was the most popu­ lar song of the set. An effective use of lights enhanc­ ed the flow of the composition of Dave Aaberg, keyboard artist, en­ titled Spock with Ears. Despite the rag in his saxophone, Greg Burhe added flavor to the melody with his solo. Smooth transitions and an excel­ lent blend of instruments carried the tune Palms composed by Wally Ausser. The changes in mood made for easy listening pleasure and caught the wandering ears of the audience. The emotional trumpet playing of Bob Panerio added a lot of feeling to the number Fruit Loops by Dave Aaberg. A bass solo, which is some­ what rare, enriched the quality of the song. All of the members are musi­ cians of exceeding talent. "With Ears" seized and held its audience for their full set. The other groups had trouble sustaining the atten­ tion of the audience and many spec­ tators literally fell asleep. "The Jazz Pirates," consisting of three members: Steve Fisk on key­ board and synthesizer, Mike Brum- mel, vocal and woodwinds, and Dave Christianson on percussion, offered the most unique and un­ usual sound in jazz. Bossanova Poison by Steve Fisk was the best arrangement the group played that evening. The audience immediately identified Steve, as he has quite a reputation for produc­ ing fine sounds. "Jazz Pirates" was also the most enthusiastic group and obviously enjoyed themselves and their music. Another composition by Steve Fisk, Suburban Folk Song, was a very unusual tune with a blend of special effects. The song was written about life in Los Angeles and held a deep meaning behind the cluster of notes. "Calico" was a disappointment, never catching the full attention of the audience until their last arrangement Masquerade. The rest of their set was too repetitious The piano playing of Duane Franks was by far the most enter­ taining aspect of the group. His solo opening of the song Masquerade brought the audience back on their ears. Sam Dossett, lead vocalist and saxophone player, also con­ tributed to the success of the song. Vocalist Pam Morris offered a little variety in the evening's events as she sang her version of the song Body and Soul. The song, arranged by Dave Aaberg, was a good exam­ ple of the blues. Pam's style was reminiscent of jazz singer Delia Reese. Showing a great deal of emotion, she came across as if she had real soul. Poor publicity and scheduling put a damper on attendance and full capacity of the recital hall was never reached. The entertainment to those who did attend must not have been worth the dollar paid, for most of the audience left after the first half, leaving Pam Morris to sing before endless rows of empty chairs with a look of disappoint­ ment on her face that was shared by many. e 9 Music Menu By Reese Colbo G%&-8 STEAK DINNERS Wednesdays and Thursdays Buy one steak dinner and get a second dinner for | Q0# 0 # # SO bring a friend Expires March 27, 1977 i i George has done it again, folks. Mr. Benson, who has had Central jazz enthusiasts enthralled with past performances here, has a new solo LP out entitled "In Flight". The album indeed does elevate George to new heights in jazz prominence. What I know about George Benson is alas somewhat limited. But upon hearing the cuts on the album, I found a pleasant sensa­ tion overcoming me. I may not know much about jazz, but I do know that music of any style that another in a series can make the listener feel down­ right nice has got to have some­ thing going for it. The album has some very im­ pressive and talented people per­ forming with George. Ronnie Foster, (who plays with Gary Wright), supplies electric piano and mini-moog synthesizer quite tastefully. Also on the keyboards Jorge Dalto, one of the finest jazz sidemen. On rhythm guitar is the capable Phil Upchurch and on bass is Stanley Banks. Harvey Mason offers drumming support, along with various percussion instru­ ments by Ralph Macdonald. The musicians all blend together well, and the lead guitar and vocals of Benson further enhance thfe album. On a couple of the more mellow tracks, Nature Boy and Everything Must Change, George excells with some tasty guitar riffs. Being tuned to basic rock and roll, I find the mellowness of George rather refreshing. George digs out of his repertoire an old war tune, The World is a Ghetto, and it comes off well done. The album is a very fine statement of mellow, light and expressive jazz by one of the finest in the business today.

The cast consisted of five mem- 3 bers with dance experience, four from Orchesis, the dance club at Central and three that had no dance experience but had been in 9 drama before. Payne said, "There were no problems in teaching the dance steps. The five experienced • dancers caught on well and the other three really concentrated on what they were doing." Rohn consisted of a variety of • dances including modern and jazz, and displayed interesting lighting techniques such as strobe and colored lights. "Everyone worked very hard," Payne said, "and got along well considering we practiced four to five hours a day, six days a week." One member of the cast, Migue- lito Snyder, said, "This was my first production in college and though I've danced for a lot of people before, I couldn't have asked for a better director." "Ronnie had to change a few things from the way he had them choreographed in Seattle," Snyder said. "There were supposed to be backbends, walkovers and forward rolls, but those had to be left out because there wasn't enough room and the floor was too hard." Snyder added, "We had to sand the floor by hand to work out the rough spots and splinters." Another member ol the troupe, Linda Ocker, said* "Ronnie kept very calm during rehearsals, es­ pecially when he sometimes saw that we were too tired to practice. He would let us go early, but the next night1 he would really work us." Ocker said, "Nobody had a negative attitude. Everyone was really excited about doing Rohn." Lands of Rohn, free to the public, played to a full house, every night at 3-Penny Playhouse. Each night the play received a warm and t enthusiastic applause. Kevin Goodwin, a member of Friday night's audience, said, "I thought the music and dancing was excellent, especially in the last dance. The last scene tied every­ thing in so well. It was really good, I liked it." Payne had choreographed only one other dance before Rohn, which was for Orchesis in their spring production last year. Payne commented about choreo­ graphers in this way. "Choreo­ graphers watch other choreog­ raphers, not to copy each other but to try and capture those feelings that go into their work." All the poetry in Lands of Rohn was composed by Payne. It's just a small sample of what he has written. "I've had one Doem Dublished in Washington Verse and have turned in poetry manuscripts to a few publishers," Payne said. "I guess it all started in third grade when I had a story published in the Oregon PTA Journal," Payne said jokingly. Payne hopes that in the future some of his work will be published and plans other dance pieces like Rohn. "I would like to organize a dance troupe somewhat like Anna Wy- man, and travel around perfor­ ming works, such as The Prophet," Payne said. "While I watched the dancers perform Rohn," Payne said, "I just couldn't believe that I had written and choreographed all that I was seeing." Drawing show is exciting By BECKI HOLLAND Since the time Marcel DuCamp created an upheaval in the modern art world, everything else chaotic has followed. This excitement is indicative of the 1977 National Invitational Drawing Show at Central. From Feb. 7 to Mar. 4, the Art Gallery at Randall Art Building is hosting an opportunity to see some of the foremost avante-garde drawings in the country, par­ ticularly from California. The large drawings may be some of the best sensitive articulate por­ trayals by young artists of modern life, ranging from "horrorvacuii" to still life. Most of the drawings are con ceptual in nature. To the general viewer, Conceptual Art may be loosely defined as an irrational intellectual approach to elements of modern society. These works employ the use of visual puns — the choicest 'piece of meat' for Conceptual Art. Some of the best renderings are works by Irv Tepper, Robert Kelly Detweiler and Jack Backstrand. The "loudiest" of the show, Ann Frick Vernon's work speaks for itself. Her "horrovacuii" scenarios David Storey's drawings deal with geometries juxtaposed either in front or bake — THAT is the visual pun — of busy symbols, both abstract and representative. Rohns' dance is weak By JANE SNYDER Q It was good to see a student- written show but it would have been better if Ronnie. Payne, writer- choreographer and director of e Lands of Rohn had started with a more original concept. The Lands of Rohn are a group of islands (somewhere near Atlanta * presumably). The audience was ac­ quainted with the islands via a tedi­ ous series of maps on slides. The lands have been beset by evil 6 and the show is divided into eight, dances showing the forces of good struggling with, and eventually triumphing over, evil. Between * dances there was a verse narrative written by Payne. The show's main fault lies in the use of rock music for the dances. It * would be asking too much to expect Payne to write music also, but Rick Wakeman and Led Zeppelin music has been heard in other contexts. * Remember Jethro Tull's "Thick as a Brick" album? All the songs used had those kind of pseudo- prof undo lyrics. Payne should have * avoided them for their "easy" effect. Instead, he employed lyricless, less trite music by the same com­ poser for the whole show instead of relying on the steel guitars and mystical pap familiar to us since junior high. He should not have relied on the song lyrics for his verse narrative inspiration. It was pretentious and a c few of the readers made it more so. I suppose he owes a debt to Tolkien, too, but he may not care to claim it. Some of the dancing was good. OVERTONS Tropical Fish Ail aquarium & fish supplies Hours: noon to 6 pm 962-9166 Rte.

Per­ haps Payne should not have relied so much on the circle formation he- employed several times. The characterization of the last dance was marred (with some char­ acterization lacking in the previous dances) because the dancers appeared to be characters men­ tioned in the song lyrics. In other words, they acted a song when they were supposed to be acting out Payne's idea. A student production has little money available for costuming. Even so, some sort of addition, even a little shift should have been made • to the dancers' leotards (different colored but matching for each dance). Payne was aiming for some sort of uniformity but the dancers, both in level of skill and body type, were unable to meet it. There are not enough dancers at Central to supply uniformity, it's fair to say, but the lack of it was made too obvious. If Payne did not want this uniformity he should have made more char­ acterizations. It was too bad blinking lights were used in "The Fire Dance." They did not contribute to the overall effect and besides were annoying. The dancers, all of whom danced several times, were Therese Enslow, Lori Rohr, Barbara Beden, Patrick Radford, Lisa Gartshorn, Linda Ocker, Ellen Pritchard and Miguelito Synder. Dave Strand, John DeMerchant and George Spel- vin narrated. Lands of Rohn was advised by Milo Smith and Lana Jo Sharpe. SKI INVENTORY CLEARANCE 40% off—ALL SKI ITEMS WILLIE STRANGE 506 N.

The rooms in question were 427, 433,436, of the east wing and 405 and 412 of the west wing. Rooms 405 and 412 were closed down in the fall of 1976 and accord­ ing to housing, will remain closed. Room 436 was evacuated approxi­ mately 14 days ago and room 433 was evacuated January 28. The residents of room 433 moved to Quigley. James Hollister, director of hous­ ing, said, "We have no plans for those rooms. Earlier we were going to put up fire walls or vacate them, but we have since decided to leave those rooms vacant." According to State and National Fi re Codes, one room cannot use the fire escape of another, but must This week is Black History Week and the Black Student Union (BSU) is commerating it with displays of people important in back history, African dancers from Yakima, a potluck dinner, movies and musi" On display near the SUB gam,s room, are examples of African art, books on Black history and the progress in a white dominated America. Also in the showcase is a photo exhibit of prominant black such as Martin Luther King, Jr., Frederick Douglas, Booker T. Washington, Jackie Robinson and many others. "The object of Black History Week is to make the people on campus more culturally aware of the contri-butions of black people throughout history," said Gilbert Petitt, BSU member. According to Petitt, Central did not have anything planned for Black History Week, so the BSU decided to organize their efforts and make Black History Week known on campus. The Black Student Union does more than show the progress of black people through history, it helps Black students at Central with whatever problems they may have., Michael Timmons, sergeant-at- arms, said "The BSU is designed to encourage Black people to attend college and to help them make a good transition into college life." According to Timmons, the BSU received funds to operate from a "reluctant administration. We've been struggling in the past but now we are strong in ideas." "The BSU held the most success­ ful disco dance so far this year. About 240 people participated where the usual attendence is 80 to 90," said Timmons.

tampus Crier Feb. 10, 1977 page 11 faced threats • on duty as iceman By MICHELLE BRUNSON V A product of the depression, a young man searched for a job that would provide him with financial security. As a result he signed on with the New York City Police Department (NYPD). After serving 21 years as a policeman and a detective, Adolf Brickly now resides in Ellensburg as the chief of campus police at Central. Seventeen years with the 68th Detective Squad in Brooklyn, yeildedcountless numbers of cases "You just remember the humorous things which seem to lighten the job," said Brickly. The more serious and deadly times a person seems to put out of their mind to help preserve their sanity. Brickly was threatened verbally many times but nothing ever came of them. If a policeman believed all the threats he received and was fightened by them he would not be able to function. "The natural human thought," said Brickly, "enables you to carry on. The docks of New York City are primarily controlled by some "preety unsavory people," said Brickly. Tieing into a ring of hijackers at the local dock, Brickly found himself in the midst of organized crime. The jihackers know exactly what items were in which truck and it's destination. It was highly organized the merchandise was sold before it was stolen. -Many of the people in organized crime have become "legitimate businessmen," said Brickly. This is one reason why organized crime is kept so quiet. Contacts are found in high places of government, yet there have not been any contacts in the police department. "When you go to work in the morning you have no idea what will happen," said Brickly. The system used by the NYPD involves two shifts. One day the detective reports in at 1 am and works until 6 pm. The next day he works from 6 pm to 8 am. Everything that occurs during that time becomes the detective's case. The remainder of the-week is left for pursing these cases. The concept today is that the only time a policeman can draw and use hisTevolver is to protect his life or the lofe of another. "There are some exceptions but 99 times out of 100 there must be some compelling act, not just his own thoughts," said Brickly. When he does shoot, he should "shoot to kill as it is the only thing left to do at that point." When an officer has killed a person he is brought before a grand jury. If no cause for action is found, the officer was justified in his course of action. Otherwise he is put on trial like any other offender would be. In his years on the force, Brickly had been shot at but never hit. "I was riding a horse at the time with the mounted police," said Brickly. "I was astonished as I saw a gun in his hand and heard it go off." It was a very unnerving experience Brickly said. An ideal policeman in the eyes of Brickly is one who regards the whole thing as a job. He is not in it for self recognition, he is a man who realizes there is a job to be done. A policeman is also warned about becoming emotionally involved with his cases. He must divorce himself from emotions and hold on to firmness. "Technology is the greatest asset the police force has for crimes of great magnitude," said Brickly. Yet there still must be the human element. A policeman or detective deals basicly with human beings and they must deal on that level. "You can't solve crimes by pushing buttons," said Brickly. The advantage of working in a large city is it's specialists. As detectives uncover information, they turn it over to the proper specialists. When information on drug sales is turned up, the narcoics squad is informed. These specialists act as funnels for information. The super hero - type policeman or detective portrayed on television does not exist in reality. The television version of cop and robber are far more glamourous. In reality, for every three hours of excitment on the job there are three months of "sheer boredom" said Brickly. Serpico, a legend of the NYPD, was "misguided" according to Brickly. He apparently made accusa­ tions and was unable to prove them. "The movie was a fair portrayal of his actions which I don't think were too wise at all," said Brickly. Serpico tried to root out crime from the bottom up. To root out crime, the top must be the starting place said Brickly. "Any long time resident of New York City realizes that they're probably a unique people," said Brickly. They are totally disinterested in each other and have no spirit of togetherness. Brickly feels it must be a "mutual mistrust", as the people don't mingle or make friends. "The thing that immediatly strikes you," said Brickly concerning the professional adjustment, "is that the amount of activity is sharply reduced from 50 to 60 cases a week to three or four here." The adjustment of coming from a large police department to a small college force did not prove to be a big problem for Brickly. Ten years ago an ad in one of the Seattle newspapers brought Brickly and his family to Ellensburg. Chief of Campus Police Brickly has not departed from the profession he entered 31 years ago. Though on a smaller scale, Brickly is still working at the job he truly enjoys and does so with the utmost enthusiasm. *H.A,—Believe it or not * In one half of all murders com- •mitted in the United States, either the. murderer or the victim Have been drinking.

Campus Crier Feb. 10, 1977 page 12 Impact of Ray's freeze examined By GARY FISHER If Governor Ray's executive order were to be applied then 1984 has arrived. Instead of a big brother, citizens now have a big sister. This idea was conveyed by Burton Williams, dean of the school of social and behavioral sciences, to faculty members at­ tending last Thursday's meeting. The school of social and be­ havioral sciences meeting reviewed progress of several faculty com­ mittees and outlined the impact of Governor Ray's recent executive order on Central. One committee reported on grading practices at Central. According to the committee's report, grading practices are grad­ ually beginning a deflationary trend. Although the level has gone down, the most common grade given in the institution is an A'. Williams briefly outlined the impact of Ray's executive order on Central. Because of Ray's order, there is a freeze on hiring and spending except for critical areas. Another committee worked on the question of English proficiency at Central. A result of this report has been the creation of a new skills center and the English department's offering a course for students to improve their writing skills. A committee worked on the proposal of establishing an honors college within Central. A pro­ posed curriculum has been de­ veloped and is now going before the Faculty Senate for approval. Williams said, "We have and are involving other schools within the college to help guide the school in its initial beginnings. I hope to begin the program by fall quarter 1977." There is now an attempt within the faculty of Central to identify the outstanding assistant, asso­ ciate and full professor who would be honored at commencement in June. "This is being done so students and parents would see Central respects and singles out its faculty for an exceptional job," he said. Another committee worked on the question of how to improve student advisement. One of the suggestions made was that faculty should be promoted and rewarded for the support of student ad­ visement. Williams said, "Certainly we ought to promote faculty support for the student advisement sys­ tem. As for rewarding it, I think advisement is a faculty responsi­ bility that goes with the job. I think advisement is a vital func­ tion of any faculty member." A committee dealt with the question of faculty morale. The committee recommended there be greater opportunity for faculty development, reduce the number of teaching and preparation hours per week, more feedback on committee work, and seminars for faculty and students. "Central is suffering from the public school image. I have worked diligently to counter 'the factory approach' towards higher education," Williams said. Another committee reported on the problem of faculty credibility with legislators. According to the report, restrictions on faculty au­ tonomy, identity and sense of personal and professional respon­ sibility interfere with the mission of the college and faculty. The committee recommended it would be helpful if legislators were informed about what the faculty should do in order to increase faculty credibility. Williams said, "A good job has been done by members of the administration to increase faculty credibility with legislators." A committee then reported oil student recruitment. "We didn't have enough people to get the work done. Now there is ad­ ditional help being placed in the admissions office to 'help with student recruitment," Williams said. Another committee worked on the question of what this college could do to establish an endowed chair. The approved concept could begin to set money aside to bring distinguished faculty and persons here to visit, teach or address students. Williams said, "I believe this college is worthy of this kind of undertaking." In regards to the Presidential search, Williams said, have paused in their search. They are going to wait until the new board of trustees is sworn in so they can appraise them of what they have done and to see if they like it." Williams said, "I look upon this order as a kind of impoundment of legally appropriated funds. This business in the name of efficiency and nonduplication is actually go­ ing to control curriculum and intellectual directions in exactly the same way every totalitarian system see's its educational sys­ tem." ~~ "We are being deprived of basic academic choices," he said. Council moves on K-AAart © \ B It if c 4 4 Central Washington State The future of a proposed K-Mart in Ellensburg has taken another step forward as a result of the City Council's 5-2 decision to enter into a contract zoning agreement with the company. The vote was the first positive move the council has taken to­ wards K-Mart since the debate began over 15 months ago. K-Mart would like to build on South Ruby Street. Planning commission member Alice Yee, argued that allowing K-Mart in the commercial housing zone was "incompatible" with the zoning laws as stated in the zoning ordinance. Councilmen Darrel Curtis re­ plied that "Maybe this isn't com­ patible with the commercial hous­ ing zoning in other peoples minds," adding that the council was elected by the people to make these type of decisions. The argument centers around the city's comprehensive plan which, according to City Attorney Tom Dohn, "is not a zoning ordinance, but simply a flexible guide for the orderly development there was ever a comprehensive of a community." plan written that was ever changed Curtis added, "I don't think once it was written."

Cats soar to EVCO 8-1 Central improved its Evergreen Conference record to 8-1 last week­ end with a pair of wins on the road. On Friday night in Bellingham the Wildcats held off a tough Western club to win 83-72, while on Saturday in Oregon, Central coasted to a 78-65 victory over Oregon College of Education. All-Confernece forward Dave Oliver was the sparkplug in Friday's win with a game-high 29 points and 10 rebounds. Oliver had some help by his running mate at the other forward, Les Wyatt, who contributed 19 points and seven boards. Guard Dave Olzendam put on a fine floor show with eight assists. He was the key to starting many fastbreaks against the Vikings, es­ pecially three straight ones in the second half that put the game away. Western held a 33-31 halftime lead before Central broke it away in the second half. With 7:09 left on the clock and Central ahead 62-61, the roof caved in for the Vikings. Central reeled off 10 unanswered points, with Oliver picking up six. The Wildcats shot 71 percent from the field the second half and 58 per­ cent for the game. On Saturday night a strong se­ cond half performance propelled the Wildcats past Oregon College of Education. Ahead by only three points at the half (31-28), Central hit on 61 percent of its field goals in the final period to pull away from Oregon College. But Oliver hit two 15-foot jumpers and A1 Roberts add­ ed a pair of buckets from the out­ side to help send Central into a 11- point lead. Roberts paced the winners with 17 points. Oliver chipped in 13 and Wyatt added 12. Oliver also pulled down 10 boards. Central is now locked for the Evergreen Conference lead with Eastern, both with 8-1 marks.

Campus Crier Feb. 10, 1977 page 14 Swimmers prepare for EvCo meet The Central men's swimming team is busy preparing this week for the Evergreen Conference Championships this weekend in Ashland, Oregon. The Wildcats finished their sea­ son with an 8-2 duel mark. One of the better showings by the team was a 71-41 win over the Univer­ sity of Puget Sound two weeks ago. Central Coach Bob Gregson feels optimistic about his team's chances this weekend at the conference meet. "We are swimming well now and should do alright," said Greg- son. Gregson also said the Wild­ cats have surpassed 29 national qualifying standards. Following the conference meet, the Northern Pacific Champion­ ships will be held at the U of Washington Feb. 18-20, followed by the national meet March 3-5 at Marshall, Minnesota. Ice skating tips Sudden thaws in the weather make it presently impossible to skate regularly in Ellensburg but there are sure to be a few cold days this month. When a skater takes ad­ vantage of a freeze, however, he should take time to observe safety rules. Unless one has reason to believe the ice is frozen clear through (i.e.. several weeks have passed without a thaw) he should never skate on anything deeper than his knees. p R E This is because, though he might not drown in a deeper area, he might find it difficult to reach the shore if he could not regain the sur­ face of the ice and had to struggle through both deep water and ice. A skater should never skate alone. Since ponds and rinks are not likely to be sheltered, the skater should guard against overexposure by wearing several layers of loose, comfortable clothing. Since most heat escapes through the head it should be protected, too. Lip balm and sometimes a moistur­ izer for any exposed skin, especially around the eyes, is necessary. Although frequent skating stren- thens the ankles, the novice skater with weak ankles might develop mU n + i • u i a n weak ankles unless one limits the ( The Central women s basketball timp nn thp inp team suffered a loss to an impres- sive Western Washington team, ... 1 - v s - - :• * V , v v.

Senior forward Joni Slagle lead the Western attack with 16 points. The Vikings shot 40 percent from the field and outrebounded the Wildcats 53-29. Central's leading scorer was Kim Grant with nine points. Central held a one point lead the first four minutes of the game. Western was charged with a technical foul for not informing the referees of the changes in the starting line-up. Minutes before the game, Kim Grant was chosen to make the shot. That was the only lead Central ever had. Neither team got off to a very impressive start. Then Western began their explosive scoring drive. At one point in the first half they lead 20-7. Central made a lot of good shots but couldn't get the ball through the hoop. The 'Cats had a rough going as they got into early foul trouble. Central will travel to Belling- ham on Friday for a rematch with the tough Western team. On Saturday they will be in Seattle to take on Seattle Pacific. ,100% cotton denim in sizes 28-36, available Button fronts CONTACT: Major Richard E.

To the editor continued (Cont. from pg. 5) If the answer to my question is only because they women's athletic program wants to assert its new found constitutional authority by showing to the men how powerful it is, then they're going about it in the wrong .way . Don't get me_wrong—I am all for women's athletics. But not to such an extreme extent that they can control the entire gym without any apparent or justifiable reason. If were in any way prohibit­ ing them from continuing their basketball game, then I could understand their logic — but we weren't. I have to wonder what makes our women's athletic department the way it is!! Sincerely yours, Mark. B.
