| Compus Crier Control Washington University Thursday, Moy 14. 1981 —- 3 Handicapped services may be crippled by Reagan's budget cuts By ALAN ANDERSON News Editor In two short years, Central's Handicapped Student Services pro­ gram has become what many con­ sider one of the best in the nation. But as a result of the recently ap­ proved Reagan administration budget, the successful program may come to an abrupt halt. According to Ann Thompson, HSS director, the budget calls for a 45 percent slash in all money to Department of Social and Health Services programs, and the money that remains will probably not be used for the handicapped. "I just don't see provisions for the handicapped as a high priority," she said, "which could be the death of our program." The HSS is funded by what is known as a block grant for voca­ tional rehabilitation. This includes any program which rehabilitates people in the community, from alcohol and drug prevention classes and juvenile delinquents to the handicapped. The entire block grant, after it is received by the state, is then divid­ ed up according to regional priorities. Central's HSS program region includes Yakima, the Tri- Cities, Eliensburg and outlying areas. "This region places a much higher priority on juvenile delin­ quents than it does any other group, like university students," Thompson said. "This is simply because handicapped people are not a problem to society. The delin­ quents create social problems, which are in the public eye." Thompson's concern is that with less money to work with, the DSHS won't get to handicapped services before it runs out. "Our only hope is for the legislators to specify the percen­ tages of money that must go to par­ ticular areas," she said. And she's seeing to it they understand that, as she's sent letters in that regard to all of Washington's represen­ tatives, both Senators Jackson and Gorton, and Speaker of the House "Tip" O'Neill. As yet, she has received no response. "We have asked that the money not come through the block grants, but that it be set aside allowing it to come through the way it always has. If that can't be done, it should at least come with some specifica­ tions," she said. "If things continue the way they are going," Thompson said, "I see the absolute death of rehabilitation programs for people with disabilities." It really means back to dependency for them, she stated. "It's just taking away what was given to them in the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and saying that's it. There is no longer going to be any rehabilitation services set aside for in this (Reagan) administra­ tion." "It's depressing," Thompson said. "It's just darned unfair that the one program that gets return on its money is going to get cut. This program helps to prepare peo­ ple to go out and get a job on their own, and to be a productive, in­ dependent member of society. Without the specialized training, they won't be able to do that." What's going to happen to these people? "I have no idea," Thomp­ son said. "I don't even want to think about it. But if they don't put in a grandfather clause (allowing those people already in the pro­ gram to continue), then they may not be back next fall." CWU student already effected One person already effected by the cuts is CWU student Lennard Smith. "I've already lost my monthly income compensation of $900 per month," said the junior who is con­ fined to crutches or a wheelchair for the remainder of his life as a result of a logging accident. Smith and his wife, who is employed in Central's Handicap­ ped Student Services office part- time are existing on savings, two real estate contracts, and a small social security disability payment. LEN SMITH . tomorrow may never come.' Photo by George Way "We figure it costs us a little over $1,100 per month to live, and I have about $750 in income. So somewhere I'm going in the hole — fast," he said. "The DVR (Department of Voca­ tional Rehabilitation) pays for my schooling, and that's very shakey right now," he said. They also pay him $70 per month for books, which Smith said also looks like it will be cut down, if not out. Approximately three weeks ago, he received a letter from the regional DVR director in regard to his summer session. "He implied that they would try to get me through summer quarter if they could encumber the funds," he said. "This is the first letter of this type I have received — which shows we are on shakey ground." Smith, who said he doesn't dare project into tomorrow, believes the only reason he's holding on as long as he is, is because of his high g.p.a. (3.3). "At least I hope that is the determinant," he said. Injured in August of 1972 when a log crushed his lower back and right leg, Smith believes he's not capable of finding employment with his present background. "I'm an ex-logger. Unless I finish my education and obtain my degree, my chances for employment are "almost none." Prior to the accident, Smith en­ joyed very strenuous activities. "I liked logging, backpacking and mountain climbing," he said. "Every available weekend and vacation I was up in the moun­ tains." "The things I enjoy doing, I'm no longer capable of doing," he said. My media is the out-of-doors. Now I write poetry, am involved in. a lit­ tle photography and I coordinate slide shows with music and poetry. But I don't even get much time for that, as I study most of the time. The campus life has fulfilled a big need in my life." "I believe my prime objective now is to obtain my degree and enter my field. But I haven't work­ ed for eight years, I don't even know if I could handle an eight- hour-a-day job." "I'm only able to stay on top because I'm a very positive per­ son," he said. "I always apply myself in a positive manner. But one wonders, at this point, how much longer he, and millions of other handicapped people across the nation will be able to maintain a positive outlook. "All I can do is wait and hope," Smith said staring into the distance. "I can't project myself into tomorrow because tomorrow may never come." Scott From page one His major problem in fact, is not with himself, but with others. "Other people have a harder time with my being blind than I do," he said. "Too many people won't say something because they're afraid it will hurt my feelings because I'm handicapped " Scott said the hardest thing to get from other people is corrective feedback. "This happens all the time, like when I'm talking too much, or if I interupt someone. People use a lot of visual cues that I just can't pick up. The problem is, most of the time they just let me go right on rambling, rather than telling me to shut my mouth." "And people are always afraid to ask questions," he said. "I try to get across that there is no such thing as a dumb question. Most of the time, someone is going to learn from them." Some of the more popular ones are, 'What's it like to be blind," or "If you could see tomorrow, what would be the first thing I would want to see." One friend of Scott's quoted him as saying probably the strangest question he's ever been asked is, "Do blind people have sex?" She didn't give his response. To make up for his loss of sight, Scott claims he relies mostly on his hearing. "Not that my hearing is that much better than anyone else's, it's just more attuned. I can be sitting here talking to you, and hearing a conversation half-way across the room at the same time. Now those people over there," he said pointing to a coOpteffte tables away in the SUB cafeteria, "are having a semi-humorous conversa­ tion." Does he feel he misses very much being blind? "Not much," he said. "I could see until I was five years old, so if you describe something to me, I can associate it, as I remember most of the highlights. I can remember colors for the most part, but bear in mind, that's been 16 yeans ago." One thing in particular stands out in Scott's mind from the days when he could see. "One time the Goodyear blimp flew over our house, and my mom pointed it out to me. That was pretty interesting." How does a blind person spend his spare time? Not sitting home doing nothing, at least where Scott is concerned. This leisure services major en­ joys such things as horseback riding, sailing, and mountain clim­ bing. Yes, that's right, mountain climbing. "A friend and I climbed Mt. Whitney last September," Scott boasted. "We had a helluva time. And we got a lot of media attention, too. KCBS radio in San Francisco covered the thing from start to finish. We must of done hundreds Support ^roup aimed at improving women's roles of interviews." His interest in the out-of-doors was also utilized when he reached the ultimate in Boy Scouts, the Eagle Scout. "It isn't easy (earn­ ing an Eagle Scout), and it takes a lot of hard work. The average per­ son does it in three to five years. And I earned mine in two-and-a- half," he said proudly. "It took my mom having to read all 24 merit badge pamphlets to me so that I could braille them,"he said. "And that's no easy task. She earned the Eagle right along with me. In fact, I'd swear at times she got more out of it than I did. When he wants to relax, Scott plays the piano, which he taught himself to do several years ago. "I enjoy doing that when I really need to unwind," he said. "I do enough as it is, without my sight," he said. "I don't want to guess what all I'd be up to if I could see." By CINDY PHIPPS Of the Campus Crier For centuries women of the United States have been in­ timidated, ignored, and have met monstrous obstacles in their quest for equality. Although much pro­ gress has been made there are still many discouraging aspects for working women everywhere. The new support group at Cen­ tral, Women Professors in Alliance, is ready to face the issues close to home. The organizers of this new group are Lillian Kanzler and Dorothy Sheldon-Shrader, both of the education department. They believe the women faculty at Cen­ tral have legitimate concerns, especially in the areas of promo­ tion and recognition, and it is time they do something about it. "Women come up with ideas and then the men take the credit," said Lillian Kanzler, Assistant Pro­ fessor of Education. She explained that a common oc- curance at department meetings is for a woman to voice an idea and have it completely ignored, only for a man, maybe some fifteen minutes later, to express the same idea and have it readily accepted. "It is simply a case of men not listening when women speak," she said. Sheldon-Shrader, as Associate Professor of Educationn agrees. "It's discouraging for a woman because the hard work is futile," she said as she further explained the lack of recognition for effort and production most women facul­ ty recieve. According to Sheldon-Shrader it is not uncommon in a group situa­ tion for the woman to do most of the writing only to find when awards are given it is the men or the administration who recieve all the credit. Often times the women aren't even notified there was an award given. Besides the lack of credit for hard work, the Women Professors in Alliance, which may be shorten­ ed to Women in Alliance for the future, believe there are not enough women being promoted. On a campus where only one- seventh of the professors and staff are women, with many depart­ ments having no women at all, this puts women as a definite minority in rank. For this reason the group feels they are passed over each year in promotions. Promotions are carried out once a year and begin with the chair­ man of the department submitting a list to the dean of those he sees qualified. The dean then sorts through the names and submits his list to the vice president, who in turn further narrows the list down and it's the president who makes the final decision. The women see this lack of representation in the promotion process as a reason for their being least considered for promotions. "We just get passed over," said Kanzler, "and particularly at the deans level." The only woman to be promoted this year was Madge Young. See ALLIANCE, page 15

Letters """IftftibtC 1 «teeflnsMS(6*ij9|OT|| Readers defend rock thrower's motives To the editor: I'm writing concerning an arti­ cle published in last week's Crier entitled, "Helicopter target of rock thrower." In reading this article I was given the impression Mr. Johnson's violent act had ruined an otherwise peaceful, scenic day. Your article does not take into account that Mr. Johnson's day, and that of many others, was ruin­ ed by the fact a crowd of people, who supposedly are enrolled in an institution of higher education, could sit back and enjoy watching machines fly through the air, whose sole purpose is to destroy other people in a vain attempt to prove superiority. It would seem to me that in this new age of complex technology, in which humanity actually has the power to literally destroy itself like the snake who consumes its tail, that the tendency should be toward abolishing the age-old concept that violence is the way to achieve a goal. The military machine is a clum­ sy, awkward beast that sucks our economy dry. To me, the crowd's response to the "prestigious' 'show of force is a direct reflection upon our society's, and the world's need to obtain a more rational way of dealing with our present problems. If we allow the concept of fighting a limited nuclear war to exist for too long, it will surely con­ sume us. I do not condone Mr. Johnson's act, I am only saying that I can understand his frustra­ tion. Kevin Halley 603 S. Pine Ellensburg To the editor: I happened to read your front page article on the rock hurler and the helicopter. Your opening line was "the mar­ ring of an otherwise quiet day-long sky diving and helicoter exhibition , by the National Guard." My reac­ tion is, what of the marred lives of the Vietnamese and the could-be El Salvadoreans.? You did not extend any credibili­ ty to Mr. Johnson, even to ask him why he would consider rock hurl­ ing.

Effie Mae Cedarberry Rt. 4 Box 186D Yakima To the editor: I am writing in reference to the incident covered in your last issue of the Crier entitled "Helicopter target of rock thrower." Mr. Johnson allegedly threw a rock at a helicopter. He was ar­ rested. His action is considered by many to be contemptible and malicious. The helicopter is a war machine. It is part of the huge war complex whose purpose is to kill and destroy. Yet, this helicopter and what it represents is welcomed at CWU with open arms. I see a contradiction of values. Your article cites the potential danger of the rock throwing. Yet the real, though hidden violence that the helicopter represents goes unnoticed. What can I do to stop my country from perpetrating the insane, endless, competitive military build-up? Why would Mr. Johnson want to throw a rock? Luaine Magnuson 603 S.

I cried myself to sleep last night By MATT WlcGILLEN , Of the Campus Crier I cried myself to sleep last night. 1 know it's silly, certainly unmanly. But sometimes I like to cry. It makes me feel good. It makes me feel... well, clean. Kind of a car wash for the soul. I don't get to cry much anymore. Not that there aren't enough things to cry about if a person needed a reason to cry. A friend of mine has cancer and the doctors say that even with surgery, he only has a 10 percent chance of living. I suppose I could cry about that. But I think he's probably done enough crying for both of us. No, I usually cry for no reason at all. Something totally uncryable will happen and the faucets spin open. That's what happened last night. I was lying on my bed listening to an old song on the stereo. The words touched me. And the tears began to flow. And I love you so The people ask me how ' How I've lived'till now I tell them I don't know The singer's voice is calm and sincere, yet strong and emotional, if that's possible. But there's no girl where the singer is singing. He's pour­ ing out his song to the whole universe from a hilltop on the edge of the world. I guess they understand How lonely life has been But life began again The day you took my hand And as the singer soars into the chorus, the tears really start to come. And yes, I know how lonely life can be The shadows follow me And the night won't set me free But 1 don't let the evening bring me down Not while your around... me The singer's voice becomes soft and steady again as he floats into the se­ cond verse.

Compters urge to express fulfilled on Central stage Campus Crier Central Washington University Thursday, May 14, 1981 5 New Pizza Mia owner makes major changes People have been watching Chris Compte. He says they probably think he's schizoid and wryly ad­ mits that there are little people running around in his head wan­ ting to get out. But it's okay Compte is a drama student at CWU, a performer of longstanding. "I've always had an urge to ex­ press myself in front of other peo­ ple," says Compte, a junior from Longview. When he was younger, Compte said, he did a lot of imitating, most­ ly cartoon characters like Yogi Bear. He says he easily picked up people's personalities," he said. In the past three years, Compte has often brought his collection of "little people" to the CWU stage, most recently appearing in the stu­ dent production of "Shadow Box." Compte says what he enjoys most about acting is taking a character from a script and turn­ ing it into someone the audience, can believe in. "There's a challenge!" he said. "If you can make it real to you, then it will be real to others." Compte has spent most of his drama time on stage crew this year, indulging his interest in behind-the-scenes activity. He pro­ vided the sound effects for the re­ cent play "Seascape." Compte has already earned a mass media minor at Central and he has spent four academic quarters working as a disc jockey on the campus radio station, KCAT. While in high school, he also did some promotional work for KB AM, a top-40, country-western station in Longview. "I guess I was your average, fairly successful high school stu­ dent," said Compte about his years at Kelso High School. In 1978, Compte graduated in the top five percent of his class, was president of the honor society, voted outstanding drama/history student and was on the golf and cross country teams. "I'm a lot less involved now," said the 1978 Central Investment Fund scholarship winner. Compte is currently focusing his CHRIS COMPTE . My mother already thinks I'm a starving artist." energies toward his dramatic future. He said he spends a minimum of three hours a day in the the drama department and that it is not unknown for him to devote 30 hours at a stretch when involved in a production « . His mother and stepfather, the F.W. Flinslies of Longview, sup­ port him in his ambitions. He says they feel he has enough brains so that if he makes a mistake he can live with it. "My mother already thinks I'm a starving artist," Compte said. "She keeps sending me food in the mail." As for his father, Thomas Comp­ te of Alameda, California, Compte says he's all encouragement. "My father is something of a frustrated artist — he wanted to be a writer," Compte said. "He feels I would be a fulfillment of things he wanted to do." Compte plans to work for his father this summer in California. During his stay he intends to look at graduate schools and theatre companies. Compte says the people he most admires are the ones who have made a living from television — his career aim — with top billing to Alan Alda. "Alda has really done it. He's taken a fictional character, one portrayed by another actor in the movie version, and created a real person." And Alda's working in an actor's paradise, Compte added. "He's able to do everything — writing and directing." But Compte also feels he's work­ ing in a great atmosphere, the CWU drama department and the town of Ellensburg: "Ellensburg has a well-grounded arts community," Compte said, adding that was one of the reasons he attended Central. "They really support the school."

According to Dick Nodlinski, new owner of the restaurant, the "big change" will take place after the Labor Day Rodeo. The restaurant will close for remodel­ ing and, when it reopens, will feature a new menu, increased seating capacity and perhaps a dif­ ferent name. Nodolinski has been associated with the Round Table Pizza chain for approximately five years, but the Mia will have to meet certain criteria before he can convert it in­ to a Round Table. But people will start noticing a difference right away, he said. He plans to have the exterior re­ painted by next week and within two weeks, the kitchen will be dominated by a high volume oven which has the capacity to cook 48 pizzas at once. Nodolinski sees the changes as a vast improvement. "You'll have a more open feel­ ing. It'll be a nicer place." It may also be a better place to do your homework, esepically if you happen to be stuck on a math problem. Nodilinski is a retired professor mathematics and com­ puter programming. He said he'd be "happy to help anyone." Pizza Mia has always catered mainly to college students, and Nodilinski doesn't forsee any changes in that, although he would like to bring in more family business. "This place is a college town... that's the way it should be. A lot of the college people who aren't com­ ing in here now will be coming in here (after the changes)." Symposium probes '80s lifestyle "FUEL for Life" is the theme of the fourth annual Helen McCabe Memorial Symposium, May 21-22 at CWU. "Finance," "Unemployment," "Energy," and "Leisure" will "FUEL" Pacific Northwest lifestyles in the 1980s and the com­ ing decades, according to sym­ posium organizers. The student seminars will address these con­ cerns anid their effects on recrea­ tion and leisure professional plann­ ing. The McCabe symposium is dedicated to the founder of Cen­ tral's Leisure Services Program, and is designed to perpetuate her lifelong ambition to bring students into close contact with leisure ser­ vices professionals, awakening students to professional challenges and enabling both groups to share ideas and insights. the symposium is composed of four sessions, each featuring recreation specialists from state and federal government, the academic world, counties, businesses, and the cities of Yakima, Redmond and Grand- view. The first Thursday session features Charles Odegaard, former Washington State Parks Director, presently head of the Regional Office of the National Parks Service. He will discuss the financial and political implications involved in leisure planning as the country enters an era of fiscal con­ servatism. Representatives from state government and the King Countyj Parks and Recreation- Department will give their reac­ tions to the current economic climate. Later Thursday, Gerald Pelton of Washington's Interagency Com­ mittee for Outdoor Recreation will present "Leisure Opportunities — Jobs or Careers?" exploring future recreational employment oppor­ tunities in the Northwest. Five respondents will focus on the pro­ spects for careers in churches, cor­ rectional institutions, com­ munities the military and the Washington State Parks System. Friday morning the emphasis will shift to the energy crisis and its impact on America's leisure lifestyles. CWU Geography Pro­ fessor Otto Jakubek will discuss "Energy, Lifestyles and Land Uses in the Pacific Northwest: Some Scenarios for the '80s." A panel of representatives from the Yakima City Parks, Whatcom County Parks Department and a private consulting firm will discuss how cities, counties and the business community can re-orient their programs to cope with the continuing crisis. John Couch, Redmond Parks and Recreation Director, will sum up the symposium with "The Real Purpose of Life," a discussion of the individual concerns and needs, noting how leisure services pro­ grams can add meaning to lives. The two-day session costs $5 for students and $10 for professionals, with registration between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Thursday, May 21 in the SUB.

Y-v-v ,,. • - '?• -.v. v Arts/Entertainment 6 — Campus Crier Central Washington University Thursday, May 14, 1981 Western art show ranked among nation's best By ALAN ANDERSON Of the Campus Crier "One would have to travel bet­ ween six months and a year to see all the artwork coming here to us," said Western Art Association President Darwin Goodey of the association's annual show here in Ellensburg this weekend. "We believe this show," which is in its ninth year, "offers a very uni­ que opportunity for those in­ terested in art to view anywhere from three-and-one-half to five million dollars worth of very fine western art," Goodey said. Ellensburg's show is known as one of the top in the nation, accor­ ding to Goodey, who is a professor of psychology at CWU. "The ma­ jority of artists that will be here are ranked among the top 10 per­ cent of the commercial artists in America. "In comparison," Goodey said, "if we were having a baseball con­ ference, most of those in at- tendence would be major leaguers." The show, which begins Friday at 10 a.m., takes in all rooms available at the Ellensburg Holi­ day Inn, making the hotel an 80-90 room gallery displaying some of the best art in the world. "Ellensburg has developed a reputation for being the friendliest show in America," Goodey said, "because we place the interests of the artists as the very top priority." Sponsored by the WAA, a non­ profit organization, the show is divided into three separate areas. First and foremost is the in­ dividual galleries set up for artists from throughout the country to display the best of their work. "Most artists are very thrilled at the amount of people that come through to view their art," Goodey said. "They learn a lot from these people." Also a big part of the show is the main auction, held Saturday at 7 p.m., and the second auction held Sunday at 1 p.m., where Goodey estimates $100,000 will change hands. Every year there are between 600 and 700 pieces submitted for the auction. "We select 130 to 140 of the very best of those for the auc­ tion," said Goodey, who guarantees the quality is just that — the very best. "An artist may submit several really good pieces, and we may on­ ly take three of them," Goodey said. "Our job is to help perpetuate art, not to be a sales outlet for everything they (the artists) pro­ duce." "A lot of times we'll accept a piece we know won't bring in as much (money) as many of the others, but we understand a $300 sale to that person is just as impor­ tant as a $2,000 or $3,000 sale is to someone else," he said. The WAA receives 35 percent of the money changing hands in the auction, and it's donated to the Kit­ titas County Developmental Center, a training center for han­ dicapped adults. Admission to the Saturday auc­ tion will be $17.50 per person, as "we just don't have all the room for people we would like to have," Goodey said. The Sunday auction is free to the public. The third part of the show is a display gallery for art that is not for sale. Included this year is a $250,000 Remington. Work such as this is what is known as dead art, meaning by artists who are no longer living. "Your two and three million dollar auctions all feature dead art," Goodey said. "Those don't help live artists a helluva lot." In the last 10 to 15 years, western art has been on an increasing slope for investment potential. Why? Goodey believes something that's very interesting about western art, like many other forms of art, is that what one person may turn up his nose at, the next person may come in and say, "Ah ha, I've found just the right piece." "Most of the scenes in western art are pretty understandable," he said. "You don't have to pretend you understand them. "If you have a piece of western art hanging on your wall, most peo­ ple aren't going to snicker at you for paying $300 for it. And then there are some who will say, 'Wow, you got that for only $5,000." Very few people buy western art with the idea to turn right around and sell it, according to Goodey. "But the thing is, you know you can always get your money back if you need to. If times get tough, the art will always be worth as much, if bought properly, as any stock you could have bought.5' What makes a person such as Goodey, who is not an artist himself, interested in western art? "I suppose because I admire the personalities of the artists," he said. "They're doing something they like doing, yet they have the courage to hang a price tag on it. It takes a certain amount of fortitude to say, 'Okay, I've got this, and it's the best I can do , so I'll ask this much for it.' "In very few positions do people put a price on their work after they do it. The umpire doesn't wait until the game is over and say well, what do you think it was worth, or what will you give me, and then take it or leave it," he said. "If someone does a piece of art that doesn't appeal to anyone it just hangs there staring back at them. Nobody ever buys it," Goodey said. "And it happens to nearly every artist." "Art on the one hand is wor­ thless," Goodey admits. "You can't eat it, you can't write it and you can't defend yourself with it, so there's practically no purpose. But I think most of us have some asthetic values. For some it's kind of nice to be able to join the quote "rich" and say 'I have some original art.'" Goodey said he was doing a pro­ fessional workshop in Idaho when a female school district superintendent asked about his connection with western art. "She asked if I was an artist, and I said no. She asked if I did sculptures, and I said no. She ask­ ed if I was a dealer, and I said no. She then asked, 'well, what, do you £tll Western art Photo by Scott Schuller Two CWU students dressed in western attire model the $7,000 "Two-gun-white-calf" bronze and a $1,500 Don Preschtel historic painting.

Not knowing exactly what she was getting at, Goodey asked, "Do you mean how many pieces do I have?" Well, no," the lady answered. "Do you mean what kinds of things I collect," he asked. "Well, no," the lady answered. Goodey then realized what she was getting at and said, "Do you mean. how much (money) do I have into: it?" "Yes," she said. "After thinking for a moment, I said, something less than a half-a- million. You should have seen her face light up. Then my wife poked me in the ribs, and said, ya, about $495,000 less. "I don't collect to be somebody," Goodey concluded. "A big part of collecting western art is just the pride of ownership."

Dance... dancer.... dancing From lyrical modern dance to the rhythm of jazz to the musical dance of Broadway, Central's dance troupe Orchesis is creating them all. The 30-member student dance group is presenting a dance concert called "Dance... Dancer... Danc­ ing" in the Threepenny Playhouse tonight through Saturday. Those attending will be entertained by the dancers performing such pieces as "Enter Into the Light," a lyrical modern number "La Rosa," a jazz dance with a Spanish flavor and "Broadway Encore" to the tune of "A Chopus Line." Evening performances will begin at 8 p.m., with doors opening at 7:30 p.m. Tickets, at $2 are on sale at the SUB Information Booth on campus, at the Ellensburg Daily Record and Shapiro's in the Plaza. A matinee will be presented at 2 p.m. on Satur­ day. Sharpe said the afternoon performance, iden­ tical to the evening show, has been added this year so younger children may attend and learn about theatrical dance. "This has been a very exciting year for us," said Sharpe, "and we think this concert will be a fitting climax to a highly successful dance year."

Without having to sit through "the boring parts," opera lovers and those who are just curious can enjoy some of the finest music the art form has produced, Nesselroad said. Nesselroad will begin the even­ ing with the prologue from Leon­ cavallo's "I Pagliacci," in which he explains the nature of musical drama. Music professors Gordon Leavitt and Lynn Dupin will also sing roles during the evening. The program continues with Mascagni's tale of Sicilian jelousy, "Cavalleria Rusticana," with Monica MacDonald, Seattle, sing­ ing the part of Santuzza and Nesselroad as Alfio. Mozart's 18th century "Cosi fan Tutte," a comedy about two fellows who wager about the faithfulness of their girlfreinds, features MacDonald as Fiordaligi, Susan Bray, Wenatchee, as Dorabella, Leavitt as Fernanado, Dan McNeeley, Seattle, as Guglielmo and Richard Ydstie, Richland, as Alfonso. The tragic story of a young nun and her secret past, "Suor Angelica" by Puccini, stars Jackie McLachlan, Kingston, in the title role, with Dupin as La Principessa. The biblical "Sampson et Dalila," by St.-Saens, features McNeeley and Shelley Byrd, Ellensburg, as the famous pair. The Opera Workshop, in its third year with Nesselroad at the helm, has launched annual productions — "Gianni Schicci" in 1979, "The Marriage of Figaro" last year and "La Traviata" this spring. Another evening of opera scenes is scheduled May 26, Nesselroad said, featuring students in "Falstaff' by Verdi and "Rip Van Winkle" by the American George Frederick Bristow. Buy Crier Classifieds Central singers make third trip to Europe For the third time in five years, the Central Singers have been selected to perform at the St. Moritz Festival in Switzerland. According to their director E. Gordon Leavitt, the Singers are one of six choirs chosen for the summer festival from a field of 40 applicants. "It's a prestigious music festival, and it's fantastic we were asked again," said Leavitt, who directed the choir during the 1977 and 1979 tours. Completely student-funded, about half of the 55-member choir will travel to Europe this year, leaving Seattle May 29 and return­ ing June 22, Leavitt said. The Singers will stay in St. Moritz five days, attending workshops, concerts and rehears: ing. They will perform Austrian composer Joseph Haydn's "The Seasons" for festival audiences. June 5, the six choirs will arrive in Zurich to begin a series of con­ certs that will take them to the cities of Modena and Reggio, Italy. The following Monday, the Singers will begin an individual concert tour to Denmark, Sweden and Norway. Leavitt said students will spend a good portion of their time sightseeing. "We'll be visiting cathedrals, absorbing the acoustics and the style," Leavitt said. "The students will be able to really see how much the 17th' and 18th century songs were perform ed." Traveling by rail and boat, the Singers' tour will lead them to Copenhagen, Stockholm, Oslo and Kristiansand. The choir will spend three days in London before their return flight to Seattle. Only one Central Singer will be making a return trip to St. Moritz this year — senior Leslie Lewis from Yakima. She performed at the St. Moritz festival in 1979, and this year she will be staying on to study in Germany, Leavitt said. Community choirs gather for fest Four community choirs will join Central's choral group, the Central Singers, for the CWU Community Choir Festival and Wayne Hertz Festival on campus May 16 and 17. Spokane Falls Community Choir as well as Tacoma, Wenatchee and Yakima Valley Community Col­ lege choirs will gather Saturday morning for a day-long rehearsal and music workshop with' guest clinician Wayne Hertz, emeritus professor of music. The free Saturday concert will be presented in Hertz Hall at 8 p.m. Each choir will be showcased, performing material from its own repertoire, said Music professor E. Gordon Leavitt, festival coor­ dinator. According to Leavitt, who directs the Central Singers, the day will be rounded off with a cour­ tyard dance for the choir members, weather permitting. Sunday afternoon the choirs will gather at 3 p.m. in Hertz to par­ ticipate in the seventh annual Wayne S. Hertz Festival. MEMO: From The Desk Of.. ° T rOZ.

10 — Campus Crier Central Washington University Thursdoy, May 14, 1981 Men qualify four, women three for national meets * Men Although the Wildcats didn't win the NAIA District I track-and-field meet — they lost by the barest of margins to Western Washington University, 200-194 — they did qualify four athletes for the na­ tional meet. One of those, Phil Phimister, who holds the fastest NAIA time in the 10,000 meters in the nation this year, will be gunning for a national track title — something no other CWU track athlete has done. Phimister's time of 29:46.5, which he set in the Oregon Invita­ tional in a 12th place finish against some of the world's best runners, will send him into nationals as the favorite. Also qualifying were John Freeburg in the 5,000, Roger Howell in the marathon and Dan Smith in the highjump. As for the battle for the 26th an­ nual district meet, which Central hosted last Friday and Saturday, the Wildcats weren't edged out un­ til the final event, the 1600 relay. The Vikings took second, while the 'Cats could only manage fourth, to set the eventual score. "We had our chances," CWU Meyers Coach Spike Arlt said, "we had a little difficulty in the 100 meters and we elected not to double Phimister in the 5,000 meters. Western did a super job. They won it in the 1,500, the relay and the field events. I thought we perform­ ed valiantly. We had outstanding performances all the way through, but we were just a little bit short. In the 100 meters, Central's George Steele and Dennis Cadra took the first two places with times of 11.0 and 11.2 respectively, but Western took the third, fifth and sixth spots. Ellensburg's Bob Beaver Messinger false-started and was disqualified, costing the Wildcats some sure points. Central won five district titles Saturday to add to the 10,000 meter and long jump crowns they won on Friday. Darrell Charles scored a double victory, winning the triple jump with a leap of 46-2V2, after taking the' long jump on Friday. Dan Smith won the high jump with a jump of 6-8, Freeburg was timed in 15:08.5 in the 5,000 and the 'Cat 400 relay team posted a 44.1 in Central's other wins. Christensen In the shot, Jon Smith and Tom Bourque placed fourth and fifth, while the Wildcats took four of the top five places in the high jump. No district records fell and only one stadium mark was eclisped Saturday. Whitworth's Doug Lar­ son set a new best in the high hurdles, breaking the old standard of 14.6. Two records fell on Friday, Phimister's 10,000 time and Western's Bruce Cyra 3,000 meter steeplechase mark.

Christensen (Fr., Langley - Lohrville, Iowa HS) and javelin thrower Lorna Beaver (So., South Bend) are entered in the AIAW na­ tional track-and-field meet, which begins Thursday in Indiana, Pa. Qualifying in the javelin is scheduled for Thursday at 2 p.m. (EDT). Christensen will run in the 5000 meter semifinals Thursday at 3:50 and Myers is entered in the 3000 meter semifinals Friday at 12:15. Finals are slated for Saturday with the javelin and 5000 meters getting underway at noon. The 3000 will be run at 3 p.m. Beaver, who has a best of 145 feet, 8% inches this spring, won the Northwest College Women's Sports Association javelin title last weekend in Bellingham with a toss of 134 feet, two inches. Central finished fourth in the 23-team meet with 45 points. The Wildcats picked up a pair of seconds and two thirds. Jill Palm- quist (Sr., Ephrata) finished se­ cond in the shot with a put of 40-4. The CWU 400 relay team of Alice Pleasant (So., Yakima - Davis), Denise Steele (Fr., Sumas - Nooksack Valley), Sheri McCor- Welcome to Our New Look! mick (Jr., Seattle) and Sheri Pos­ ter (Sr., Bellevue*- ^elievue CC) also finished second with a time of 50.1. CWU's other point scorers in­ clude McCormick, third in both the 100 meters (12.6) and the 200 meters (25.9) Brenda Allenbaugh (Sr. Ellensburg) fifth in the hep­ tathlon (3740 points) Palmquist, fifth in the discus (131-0) and Christensen, fifth in the 5000 meters (17:52.5) and sixth in the 3000 meters (10:20.9). Christensen's 3000 meter time was just one second off national qualifying and her 5000 time easily bested the national standard. "Carol missed a couple of pace timets jp the 3000, but she ran just like it was charted in the 5000," coach Jan Boyungs said. "We had her charted at 42 for the first 200 yards and then 87 second laps. She ran a 41 and a pair of 85 second laps, then sat on 87 until her last lap when she came through with a 71." Myers, who had qualified for na­ tionals prior to regionals, took the week off in order to be fully rested for nationals. She has a best of 10:04.8 in the 3000, which ranks her among the top 10 nationally and would have earned her a third place at regionals. Lyons tops golfers Jay Lyons (So., Ellensburg) finished the 1981 golf season with the lowest stroke average for the Central Washington University golf team. Lyons averaged 80.9 shots per 18 holes. Mark Nelson (Fr., Del City, Okla.) averaged 80.5, but he com­ peted in just two of CWU's six tour­ naments.

Campus Crier Central Washington University Thursday May 14. 1981 Vl istrict champ: I want to be respectable Lorna Beaver will be seeking respectability this week when she .represents Central Washington University in the AIAW national track-and-field championships at Indiana, Pa. "I just want to be respectable," the Northwest Collegiate Women's Sports Association district javelin champion said. Beaver, a sophomore from South Bend, won the regional title Satur­ day with a throw of 134-2. She has a best of 145 feet, 8 % inches this spr­ ing. Beaver will be one of three Cen­ tral athletes competing at the na­ tionals She will be joined by distance runners Laura Myers from Edmonds and Carol Christensen from Langley. The preliminaries in the javelin will be Thursday (May 14) at 2 p.m. (EDT). If she qualifies for the finals, she will compete again Saturday at noon. Beaver, a 5-6, 140 pounder, doesn't seem to have the typical body frame for a nationally-ranked javelin thrower. "She needs more strength work," CWU coach Jan Boyungs said. "We've changed her ap­ proach this spring and that has helped her, but for her to really im­ prove she will need to improve her strength." Beaver agrees that her strength could be improved. Therein lies, somewhat, of a delima for the CWU physical education major who also plays basketball for the Wildcats. "In one respect, basketball has hurt my javelin performances because I was afraid to work on the weights too much during basket­ ball because it might throw my shot off." "However, basketball helped develope my speed which is very important. It's your forward momentum that helps carry your (javelin) throw," Beaver said. Beaver says she hopes to im­ prove her strength this summer and fall before next winter's basketball season, but right now her major concern is her mental approach. "If I am mentally prepared, I will be ready. Before I throw I try to picture the perfect javelin throw. If you are mentally ready, you can develop a psychological advantage and it can make you feelstronger." Beaver, who finished fourth in the state high school track meet during her junior and senior seasons, improved her best throw by 15 feet this spring. While she has been pleased with her progress in the javelin, she has been unhappy with her progress in basketball. "I wasn't happy with my basket­ ball season," Beaver said. "I need to improve my offense and get some more confidence." Beaver completed the season with a 4.7 scoring average. She ranked fourth on the team in assists frith 36 and hit 32 percent of her field goal attampts. But, while she enjoys basketball more than track, her thoughts this week will be on the javelin. "I will just be concentrating on trying to qualify Thursday for Saturday's finals," Beaver said. "But, you never know. On any given day..." Track not Meyers main aim CWU hosts power! ifters By GRETCHEN STOHR Of the Campus Crier Central will host its second- annual powerlifting championship May 16 in Nicholson Pavilion. The powerlift meet is designed to demonstrate each lifter's overall power. Upper body strength is tested with the bench press leg strength is tested with the squat and the combined upper and lower body strength is tested with the deadlift. Guest posers Andy Jenkins, Shawn Barber and Gretchen Stohr will demonstrate body-building techniques with a dual and a single posing routine during intermis­ sion. The meet is sponsored by the CWU Body-Building/Powerlifting Club and the Intramural Depart­ ment and will involve competitors from around the state aged from 16-30. Weighins and rules explanation will start at 7:30 a.m. and the con­ test will get underway at 10 with the bench press, followed by the squat and de&tilift M amateh bet­ ween iron and muscle. When Laura Myers enrolled at Central Washington University in the fall of 1978, running track was not one of her priorities. "I thought there was no way I would be good enough to compete at the college level," the 1978 graduate of Meadowdale High School in Edmonds said. But not only has she been able to compete she has developed into one of the best small-college distance runners in the Pacific Northwest. Myers, along with CWU team­ mates Carol Christensen (5000 meters) of Langley and Lorna Beaver (javelin) of South Bend, will travel to Indiana, Pa., this week to compete in the AIAW na­ tional track-and-field meet. Myers qualified for nationals in both the 3000 meters and the 5000 meters, but will only run the shorter race at nationals. She has a best of 10:04.8 in the 3000 which ranks among the ten best times nationally. "I'd like to finish in the top six and make All- American, the junior sociology major said. "I'll need to just sit back and run the proper pace." Myers admits running the pro­ per pace has been her biggest pro­ blem. "I have a tendency to break out (from the pack). I guess it's from my old 800 days," she smiled. She finished 12th in the state meet as a sophomore, 36th as a junior and 63rd as a senior. "It wasn't that I was getting worse, but the competition was getting better," she said. Myers, however, skipped her final year of track at Meadowdale and had no plans to turn out here. "I was about 15 pounds overweight and I really didn't think I would be able to compete." "She is a remarkable worker," CWU coach Jan Boyungs said. "She has become a lot more dedicated this year." Myers agreed her mental ap­ proach has been better than in her first two years at Central when she enjoyed moderate success (in­ cluding qualifying for the 1979 na­ tional cross-country meet). "Running is so mental. If your head is not together, you are not going to do well." Apparently, does have her head together and she is hoping to run in the 9:45 range at nationals. "Part of my problem is I don't know when to push myself. I have a good strong kick, but sometimes I don't start soon enough." "I expect to find out just what I am capable of this week. That is part of the excitement of com­ peting in nationals. If I am pushed that is all I really care about. It will be fun just to see what I am capable of doing." And she wouldn't mind if an All- American certificate came her way. TONIGHT G O I I) I 1 * U A \V N ritiKv R RESTRICTED- : " NEXT WEItr WW. I : : 'Country Rock* SUE THEATRE & 9:3© IP-/H.

12 — Compus Crier Central Washington University Thursday. May 14. 1981 School strives to make students feel 'special* By LEANNE LaBISSONIERE Of the Campus Crier "I try to make each student feel special not just like a number," says Kathy Hatley, coordinator of Ellensburg's Alternative Educa­ tion Program. j The alternative school is located in the center of Student Village in the multi-purpose room. Unknown even to some of its close neighbors in the complex, the school houses 30 students, who for a variety of reasons, are out of the regular school setting. Ranging in age from 14-21, the students fulfill requirements and take electives to earn a regular Ellensburg High School diploma. "We can work on our own level says 18 year-old Mark, who will graduate next June. According to Hatley, all academic classes are individualiz­ ed and 80 percent attendance is re­ quired. Students take from one to five half-credit classes per day. The alternative school began two-and-a-half years ago after Hatley and a co-worker looked at alternative schools in Wapato and Yakima. Original funding was through a federal grant until Ellensburg demonstrated a definite need for the program, which since then has been main­ tained by the district. Ed, who will graduate in June, says he prefers the alternative school's emphasis. "I like how it is- goal oriented instead of disciplinary oriented. The goal lor every student is graduation.*,' Students can take classes at Ellensburg High, do individual projects or earn credit through work study. This session three students are enrolled in driver's ed. and one takes a shop class at EHS. Students may also be involv- 1~ed in any other program the high school offers. Custodian honored for 25 years "I'd like a few more electives," says Hatley. "I'm working on some for next year, but to get them together takes time, energy and money." The atmosphere at the school is relaxed and easy going, although according to Hatley everybody keeps busy throughout each ses­ sion. "We like our teacher, sometimes," says Mark jokingly. "You have to have a good teacher in a program like this." "Most teachers would have got­ ten out a long time ago," adds Jim, who has been in the program a year-and-a-half. Hatley says you need to have a real feeling for young people to be an alternative education instruc­ tor. She also emphasized the im­ portance of having counseling training. "You have to be able to deal with a lot of problems that come up,' says Hatley. Most im­ portantly, she adds, "You have to like kids."

Ruby Tripp, accounting assis­ tant in the CWU business office ac­ counts payable section, and Residence halls to sponsor carnival The Residence Hall Council along with the residence halls, various campus clubs and the ad­ ministrators will be conducting a carnival in the concrete area out­ side of the SUB on May 16 from noon to 5 p.m. According to RHC treasurer Keith Olson, the carnival isn't in­ tended to be a money making event for RHC. He said they wanted to put on some kind of spring event in place of Casino Royale, which will not be held this year due to legal problems. Residence halls and clubs will be entering booths such as pig kiss­ ing, dart throwing and weightlif- ting. There will also be booths with games and food. RHC will receive 10 percent of each booth's total revenue. This charge will help cover the cost of security, and other miscellaneous expenses in connection with the carnival. Birth control topic of meeting By CATHY PETERSON Special to the Crier There are an astounding number of myths surrounding birth con­ trol, and according to Sally Thelen, director of the Health Center, there is "never any excuse for not using some method of birth control" to avoid unwanted pregnancies. Birth control was the topic of the "Issues in Women's Health" lunchtinie meeting sponsored by the Center for Women's Studies April 29, at which Thelen was the guest speaker. Thelen said that its failure and side effects are usually related to ( other chemical or physical factors, and that a complete physical and consultation are of the utmost im­ portance. She cited diabetics and those with any history of blood clots as not being good candidates for the pill. The pill is still the most effective method of contraception available, at about 99.9 percent. However, the pill isn't for everyone for a number of different reasons, it is a "drug which effects every cell in your body." The IUD, about 97 percnet effec­ tive, was discussed as an alter­ native, as was the diaphram. Both methods required doctor's supervi­ sion and have advantages and disadvantages which, according to Thelen, are related to each in- dividai case and should be dealt with as such. There are also a large number of birth control methods which can be obtained in stores without a prescription. Condoms, foam and inserts are included in this category, and, with proper use can be as effective as the IUD of diaphram. Thelen said that she has seen an Washington map guide available A guide to purchasing maps of Washington state is now available for $1 from Central's* Library Documents Department. The 18-page guide lists more than 50 different kinds of maps currently available from a variety of map publishers. The booklet, "Purchasing Maps of Washington: A Popular Guide," was produced by Peter Stark, CWU map librarian. Arranged by subjects like topography, National Forests, Willard New, steam engineer at the CWU boiler plant, were cited for 20 years at the university. The honored employees and retirees were presented cer­ tificates of appreciation by Court­ ney Jones, CWU vice president for business and financial affairs. Eleven employees who have completed 15 years of service, 22 who have worked at CWU for 10 years, and eight persons who recently retired were also honored at the 2 p.m. reception in the Grupe Conference Center. Those who have completed 15 years at Central include Kennie Doering, Eugene Plaster, Rex Potts, Bill Erickson, Marie Lan­ caster, Chloe New, Kathryn Wyatt, Floyd Bentz, Mae Morey, Dorothy 'Bottle Babies' Anderson and Esther Wall. Honored for 10 years at CWU were Bill Romaneski, Federico Masuccio, Richard Munroe, Ron Harris, Charles Fischer, Kenneth Poage, Evelyn McClure, Elva Ackler, Ruth O'Conner, Elmer Osenbaugh, Will Garnich, Leland Cervine, Harold Umland, Justin Stevenson, Donna Volland, Nick Heinz, Phillip DeBusschere, Peggy Holmes, Don Heavilin, Margot Fit­ zgerald, Barbara Mann and Joanne Stevenson. Those who retired within the last year after 10 years or more at Cen­ tral include Warner Storms, Hobert St. Aubin, La Verne Barkley, Bill Charles, Keith Hamilton, Jack Mettler,, Mae Bloomfield and Bill Wilson, i increasing number of cases where both partners come into the Health Center to make decisions involving birth control. She also suggested that those interested can find a great deal of information in books about birth control, and that the facts should be checked out with an expert. The third and final "Issues in Women's Health" lunchtime meeting is scheduled for Wednes­ day, May 20, at noon, at Sam's Place in the SUB. Susan Hill, CRN, family nurse practicioner will speak. geology and Mt. St. Helens, each map listing contains a short description and a letter which is keyed to a map publisher's adress where the map or price informa­ tion may be obtained. Also included is a directory of map reference libraries and retail map outlets in the state. Funding for the guide was pro­ vided by the CWU Alumni Associa­ tion and CWU's College of Letters, Arts and Sciences. t BOD to vote on boycott By JAN SOLOMON Special to the Crier If you've seen the film, "Bottle Babies", on campus this year, you've seen how millions of infants in Asia, Africa, and Latin America suffer every year from the inap­ propriate use of infant formula. In areas where clean water is inac­ cessible and poverty & the norm,v contamination and formula dilu­ tion lead to "baby bottle disease," — diarrhea, malnutrition, brain damage, and even death. Studies show death rates are 2 to 3 times higher for bottle-fed babies than from breast-fed infants in developing nations. So why are mothers choosing formula over a more nutritious (and free) product (mother's milk)? Aggressive marketing techni­ ques help convince mothers to abandon breast feeding in favor of the more "modern," western bot­ tle public service nurses are hired by companies to promote their pro­ ducts in hospitals and clinics. So why boycott Nestle's? This giant Swiss corporation controls about % the infant formula sales in the third world. Despite a decade of health worker's reports to Nestle's show­ ing that its practices contribute to the baby bottle disaster, the com­ pany has refused to abide by World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF recommendations that they suspend direct promotion to the consumer in areas where ex­ treme poverty and lack of educa­ tion lead to product misuse and in­ fant disease. The issue comes down to a con­ flict of economic interests and public health. In 1978, Senator Ted Kennedy stated it this way: "Is it enough to establish a code for pro­ duct use and disown or turn away from the realities of product use?" Many people don't think it is enough. INF ACT (Infant Formula Action Coalition) is a national coalition of concerned individuals and groups mobilizing to stop what they con­ sider to be the unethical promotion of infant formula by multi-national corporations. The boycott is gain­ ing momentum in the U.S. now. Close to home, Nestle's has been put on notice at the Universtiy of Oregon, where students voted 2-1 to boycott Nestle's products. The bookstore BOD also voted to place a notice next to the candy display explaining the boycott. Central's BOD has been ap­ proached by concerned studei. 3 who would like to see our campus make a public statement as to how we feel about this issue, £^d tiie board is ready to take a vote on the endorsement. Students and' other citizens of Ellensburg have had the chance to see the film "Bottle Babies" and listen to several speakers on this subject both this year and last year. j An endorsement of the boycott means our student body is willing to publicly support INFACT'S Demands (which happen to coin­ cide with the recently-approved marketing code established by WHO and UNICEF reps) which are: 1) An end to direct promotion to the consumer, including mass media promotion and direct pro­ motion through poster, baby care literature, show, wrist bands, and baby bottles 2) An end to the use of company "Milk Nurses" (Public Health Ser­ vice employees paid by Nestle's to promote their products) 3) An end to distribution of free samples and supplies to hospitals, clinics, and homes of newborns 4) An end to promotion to the health professions and through health care institutions. How we, as individuals. Wish to pursue this endorsement is open, but if you're interested in working on this campaign, or just want mc: e information, you can write IN- FACT, 1701-Universtiy Ave. S.E., Minneapolis, MN, 55414. If you choose to honor the boycott, it's urged that you send a note off to David Gurrant, Presi­ dent, Nestle's Company, 100-Bloomingdale Rd., White Plains, NY 10605, telling him why you're boycotting his company's products. The Central BOD will be voting on this issue May 20, so if you'd like to speak to them, either in support of, or against the boycott, please attend that session and make your feelings known. : •• '

KCWU TV offers series on off-campus adult education Campus Crier Central Washington University Thursday, May 14, 1981 — IS Alliance from page three Young, an Associate Professor of men and women alike.

These plans are sure to include a salary study and a study on the length of time men worked and what they had to do in order to get promoted in comparison to women. Sheldon- Shrader believes these studies are necessary in order to accurately define their situation. The group at Central is in touch with other alliance groups at Eastern and Western Washington Universities. Central is probably the last to form such a group, but according to Kanzler it's not that it wasn't needed, but just a matter of deciding to organize it. "We just want to be more visible and don't want peope to write us off," she said. From page 12 Hatley and her students agree they often feel others in the com­ munity may be critical of the school. "Some people have an at­ titude about this school-that we're a bunch of 'druggies'", Ed points out. "Anybody that doesn't know about the program tends to criticize it more than compliment it," adds Hatley. "Basically everybody here gets along," Hatley said. "You can get closer to people down here because you're with them more," Mark says. "You can just be yourself around here." KNOW OF A GOOD SCOOP?

T6 — Campus Crier Central Washington University Thursday, May 14, 1981 New greenhouse modern, sophisticated :! :i: i 11' By DENISE EHLIS Of the Campus Crier Imagine lush vegetation, a hot humid climate and green everywhere. Sound like a trek down the Amazon River? Well it's not, for we have a place just like it (minus the screeching birds and slithering snakes) here at CWU. The newly opened greenhouse of the Botany and Biology depart­ ments was officially opened last Friday by Central's Board of Trustees. Actually, the greenhouse has been in operation for the last few months but according to John Carr, Assistant Professor of Biology and greenhouse director, they are still receiving pieces of equipment. It should all be here sometime in June, he said. Basically, what a greenhouse is for, is to maintain a controlled, simulated environment, Carr said. Generally the climate simulates summer in winter. CWU's greenhouse climate is a tropical one, maintaining a 72 degree temperature and about 70 percent relative humidity. Carr proudly explained that Cen­ tral's greenhouse is the most modern and technologically ad­ vanced in Washington. Some may be bigger, but ours is more sophisticated, Carr added. The approximate cost of the greehouse is $400,000, but its uses are numerous. Besides being an obvious teaching aid in biology and botany course, its uses will include experiments with plants, aid in research projects for the faculty s,v Photo by Scott Schuller CWU's new $400,000 greenhouse has been called "the most modern and technologically advanced" in the state of Washington. and, as Carr explained, it's also a public service. Already tours of in­ terested, amateur botanists have gone through the greenhouse. The greenhouse is home for literally thousands of plants, in­ cluding a special collection of an orchid group and a bromeliad (pineapple) family. A general public "open house" is planned for later this month or ear­ ly June but will definitely be before the spring quarter's over, Carr said. The Amazon has nothing over Central. Public issues subject of summer symposium Meetings outline water rights The Washington State League of Women Voters is sponsoring 12 in­ formational meetings to assist Department of Ecology personnel iii explaining and advising those needing to file water rights claims by the August 1 deadline. There will be four meetings held in Ellensburg at the 1st Presbyterian Church cm May 18 and June 22 with an afternoon and evening session on both those dates, 2-5 p.m. and 7-10 p.m. The Department of Ecology is the litigant representing the State of Washington to determine all ex isting water rights on the Yakima River System and how those rights relate to others within the system. This includes all surface waters, all tributaries to the Yakima River, springs, ponds, lakes and in volves more than 5,000 claimants in both Kittitas, Yakima and Ben ton Counties. The CWU Department of Com­ munication will sponsor a summer symposium on current public issues in Washington State, June 23-July 21. Offered as a series of four, one- week, one-credit modules, the symposium will consider "Nuclear Power: Where Do We Go From Here?" June 23-29 "Prisons: Pro and Con," June 30-July 7 "Public Education: How Good?" July 8-14 and ''Human Rights/Equal Rights," July 15-21, with emphasis on women's rights. Each section of the symposium will feature several outstanding speakers. On nuclear power, Ron Rodewald of the Bonneville Power Administration, John Hippely of the Washington Public Power Sup­ ply System, and Ruth Weiner of the Washington Environmental Coun­ cil will speak. On prisons, Donald Garrity, CWU president and expert criminologist, and James Spalding, deputy director of the division of prisons in the state Department of Corrections will be featured. On public education, Robert Carlton, chairman of the CWU Education Department and Bill Daley of the Superintendent of Public Instruction Office are scheduled. On women's rights, Linda Clif­ ton, president of Washington Women United and Judy Turpin, state president of the American Association of University Women will share the podium. Readings, films panel discus­ sions among guest experts and open dialogue among symposium attendees will also be featured each week. According to CWU Communica­ tion Professor Corwin King, sym­ posium coordinator, the sessions will be valuable for students in the liberal arts, as well as for career teachers. It should be a valuable source of ideas and information for use in their own classrooms, he said. Students may register for any one or all four weeks of the sym­ posium. Pre-registration is recom­ mended, but students may register the first day of class if symposium sessions are not full, according to King. For more information, call King at 963-1066. i PBL members take top awards Members of Central's chapter of Phi Beta Lambda made an im­ pressive showing at the PBL 1981 State Leadership conference at Grays Harbor Community College last week by taking 28 out of 55 awards.
