•V' : .\K. i:,.. % v'-V?'-V Editorial Poll indicates students lack awareness Results of The Observer current events poll appearing on page 3A are disappointing, but not surprising. The survey, given to 54 CWU students of all class standings, pointed out that most students don't know much, if anything, about current events. Students were asked five questions - one was about an international event, two were national, one was statewide, and one was local. As might be expected, knowledge of issues rose as class standing went up. But even seniors were woefully ignorant. Perhaps the most disturbing factor highlighted by the survey was the poor showing of women on all questions. Does this mean most women come to college just to earn an Mrs. degree? Also particularly disturbing is that one ASC Board of Directors member couldn't answer any of the questions. Not surprisingly, student familiarity with our president rose with class standing. Those who have been here four years better know who he is. But for that matter, so should the freshmen. Garrity is a president who prides himself on involvement with students. The fact they don't know who he is should be taken as a reflection on the student, not the president. The ignorance of some students was almost as amusing as it was depressing. To the surprise of some, Garrity is not television newscaster Roger Mudd. Henry Kissinger is not still the U.S. Secretary of State. Slade Gorton is not the governor of Washington. And, believe it or not, the Winter Olympics were not held in Los Angeles or Switzerland. Come on, folks. Those were serious responses. As trite as it may sound, today's college students are the leaders of tomorrow. We should keep ourselves aware of what's going on outside the bubble surrounding our campus. There is a "real world" out there.

For the past 57 years the paper has been known as the Campus Crier. During that period of time, it, like most college papers, as well as local and national papers, has had its ups and downs. A paper is only as good or bad as the people who put it out. While the name Campus Crier may not be the most pleasant sounding or eye catching to some people, it is a name that most people associate with Central Washington University. If changing a name would improve anything maybe we should change the name of our football team to the "Central Cowboys" or the "Washington Raiders." I do not mean this as a putdown of our football team. If we really need a new name for the paper I think you could have been more original, rather than trying to play on the name of a nationally-known paper. I also think it would have been nice to survey the students and the rest of the college community as to the need for the name change, as well as for suggestions for alternative names. By doing it the way you did, you have done exactly what you have implied the BOD might do, "to make decisions behind closed doors." I hope this does not mean that every time we get a new editorial staff on the paper we are going to have a name change. „ ^ v - John Dedrick Brooklane Village e €i m a • Observer an honest attempt at professionalism To the editor: I believe that Vol. 1, No. 1 of The Observer encompasses every aspect of the human drama that I enjoy watching play itself out across our "hallowed" campus. For years I have watched editors, ad managers, photographers, writers, accoun­ tants — the works — parade through your offices. To each human wave my heart has gone out. Against all odds, with the barest experience, and frequently without help, each group of students has tried its luck in the campus newspaper business. KELLY MILLER Scene Editor DAVE VOELLER Production Manager GREG KESTER Business Manager I've often wondered if the campus com­ munity as a whole appreciates the massive quantities of caring and work that are devoted to "our" modest paper. In the years gone by, even dismal failure had its own triumphs. Maintaining status quo demonstrated, at the very least, a good effort. Producing a paper with tangible im­ provements really took savvy and a her­ culean effort. But the new Observer represents something else altogether. This first issue represents an honest at­ tempt at professional journalism, aesthetically packaged. Because of the remarkable effort of the en­ tire Observer staff and Gil Neal, faculty ad­ viser, this campus has a first-rate weekly paper. I m very proud of each and every per­ son who, despite all odds, created The Observer. I would also like to caution those who criticize the name change. The name by itself isn't that important. In­ stead, pick that two-section beauty up in your hands. Heft it. Now that's a newspaper! Check out the writing, the credibility, the graphics, the issues! That's what a newspaper is made of. If tradition is limited to the masthead of the paper and not to the effort behind it, then it's not of much value. I look forward to the tradition of fine jour­ nalism at Central which began last Thurs­ day, April 5, 1984.

It is my understanding that the BOD com­ munication class is just that — a class to sharpen communication skills. Nothing is more central to an organization's effec­ tiveness than its ability to communicate ac­ curate, relevant, understandable informa­ tion among its members. This idea is wot a well-kept secret. Similar concepts have been used in the business world for years. Governmental bodies also utilize this the Tacoma City Council has its own class at which the members work on their communication skill. In addition, they invite a representative from the Tacoma News Tribune to observe the class. Sound familiar? We of the BOD are not sharpening our skills to become more efficient at your ex­ pense. but rather, for your benefit. Michael Caine ASC President (Editor's Note: According to Joe Turner, the Tacoma News Tribune reporter who has covered the Tacoma City Council for the past year, the council participates in no such class. He said all meetings of the governing body are legally scheduled meetings or workshops open to the public and that to his knowledge the newspaper has not received an exclusive invitation to participate in a "communication class.") Editor lackadaisical should run for Board with action of Directors To the editor: Commenting on your opinions and over- critical newspaper, why is it you're so free with your words but lackadaisical with your actions? Have you ever been an officer of a commit­ tee or club? Have you ever voluntarily at­ tended a BOD meeting? Well if you have all the answers, maybe you should have run for BOD. Maybe you should have more ambi­ tions to find out what's taking place on this campus. Involvement is what BOD has been pushing ever since this year began. I don't think this university is as inferior as you make believe it is. In case you didn't know. Central is ranked seventh nationally in its category. It seems you're speaking for the entire campus, but you have not the time to listen to anyone but yourself. There is a numerous amount of excellent programs, administrators, faculty and students on this campus. Sure, there are things that need to be changed, but it doesn't happen overnight. Time is needed to make changes successful I'm sure you spent a lot of time changing this newspaper. I hope you can bring yourself to say at least one nice comment every week. The way this first issue has gone, it would be ap­ preciated if you had some compassion for the university. Patrick Henry Caine Quigley Hall Former editor praises Observer To the editor: As a former editor of Central's campus newspaper, it was with great interest that I attended the unveiling of The Observer last Wednesday afternoon. When I stepped down from the helm of the now-deceased Campus Crier following the fall and winter quarters of 1981-82, I im­ agined, because of the unusually high number of extremely talented people that fate had so kindly put at my disposal, that the campus paper had become about as close to being a real "newspaper" as it ever had. Or would. Not so. Even to the most casual Central reader, The Observer must be like a deep breath of fresh air. To one who has endured the long nights, the strangling deadlines and the anxiety of one's soon-to-be-read editorial, however. The Observer is very simply this: a magnificent accomplishment. Yet, there's more. When one watches the interaction of the staff, including the adviser, the reason for . this success is obvious. First, the present editor, like any talented leader, has sur­ rounded himself with talented people. Secondly, he has taken that multi- talented group of people and created an at­ mosphere of unity, of team work, of togetherness — call it what you will — the end product of which is a group of enor­ mously gifted individuals with a burning singleness of purpose, producing the finest paper in the history of Central Washington University. Congratulations, you're there. Matt McGillen Sportswriter Yakima Herald-Republic Tact a key To the editor: Regarding your opinion column, I don't believe these attacks are called for, valid or not. They aren't parallel to your goal of "credible journalism." I am one of the strongest believers in let­ ting our leaders know what we want from them, but that isn't the way. A more con­ structive and tactful form of feedback would probably be much more effective and may even create a little trust and good will. Like many other things in this institution, you're starting off on a new and good idea. Why don't we all work together and help each other toward positive steps, nicely. Doug Pahl Stephens-Whitney Hall Without credibility Observer will go down To the editor: I believe the name change of the Campus Crier is totally unnecessary. Why remove something so traditionally linked to a school as its paper's name? Update the format and by all means improve the writing and editing, but don't change the name. A paper's reputation will only be as good as its credibility in reporting the facts. Without that credibility, the paper's support can only go down, whether its called the Crier or The Observer. If the first issue is any indication of what's to come, I suspect the writing and editing of The Observer will be much the same as its predecessor. A name change will not automatically improve support. Print it blue, if you like, but let's have the name of the Campus Crier back on the front page of our Crier.

Thursday, April 12, 1984 i One year later Ellensburg, Washington Wilkening takeover still haunts local officials Sheriff doubts gunman planned to walk out alive Clad in military fatigues and carrying two automatic weapons, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and a first aid cit, Harvey Wilkening walked into the old Kittitas County Jail one year ago today. He never walked out. According to Sheriff Tom Young, the single bullet that ended Wilkening s life WILKENING 10 hours after he seized the building probably came as no surprise to the 20-year-old former Central student. "For whatever reason," Young said this week, "when he went in there, he went in with the ^iriteftfl8rf r(5f"li' coming out." And the reason Wilkening went in is still a mystery to law enforcement officials—a mystery Young says they never expect to solve. Harvey Frederick Wilkening died shortly before 6 a.m., April 13, 1983. The local man walked into the front office of the old jail through a door left open for visitors. Strapped to his body was a cast-iron vest. A similar helmet covered his head. The jail contained 31 prisoners. The only thing between them and Wilkening was a single electronic gate. Throughout the night, Young said that fact was his biggest concern. "The only priority was to secure the safety of the prisoners," he said. "With little effort, he could have gotten back to those people." Shortly after entering the jail, Wilkening was confronted by unarmed guard Ben Evans, who had walked to the front of the building to see who had entered.- "He pointed the rifle at Evans' chest and said he was taking over the building," Young said. Evans convinced Wilkening to let him go and notified authorities.

At approximately 10:30 p.m., Wilkening began firing at police positioned outside. Police Chief Larry Loveless was hit in the hand during the shooting. He suffered the only reported injury among law enforcement officials. That exchange was all that officials were to hear from Wilkening for several hours. During the next few quiet hours a Special Weapons and Tactics team See WILKENING, Page 12A Young found decision tough to cope with In effect, Tom Young pulled the trigger on Harvey Wilkening's life. And that hasn't been easy for the Kittitas County Sheriff to deal with Young, who had been in office a mere four months when Wilkening made his siege of the county jail, was the chief law enforcement of­ ficer at the all- night stand-off. The decision to shoot Wilkening, which he made at 5:48 a.m., nine hours after the ordeal began, was all his to make. "That was not something you're able to forget the next day," Young said this week. "The one that either does the shooting, or ^-orders the-shot. has to finalize in his own mind what he did. It was several weeks before I was able to settle it on my own and go on to other things. "I didn't want to sit down and relax. When I did, I kept going over and over and over it again in my own mind." Young said that by 8 a.m. the day after the seige he was a nervous wreck. "I had to take 15 minutes to get away from the press, have a cup of coffee, collect my thoughts and call my wife to tell her it was over and that I was still alive." Young said the fact he had only been in office four months had nothing to do with his handling of the incident. "I operated on 18 years of law enforcement experience," he said. "I spent 18 years preparing for this type of situation. "I could have been in office five years or three months as sheriff and I would have handled it exactly the same.

"The safety board believes that sobriety checkpoint and adminstrative license revocation procedures are potentially effec­ tive deterrent measures that warrant broader application by states," said the study, which was completed this week. Officials said Thursday that the report, which was endorsed by the independent panel, recommended that these moves be an "integral part of a state's comprehensive alcohol and highway safety program." The board said that in 1982 alone more than 25.000 people died in alcohol-related traffic accidents and nearly 670,000 suf­ fered injuries. Big Macs cause hassle for hungry pro wrestlers WAUKESHA. Wis. (UPI) — When two large men demanded service at a closed McDonald's, employees didn't hesitate to call police. But the police didn't know the two were professional wrestlers — together weighing 600 pounds. It took 13 officers to subdue the pair, and four of the police officers — including a 19-year-old woman — wound up in the hospital with assorted injuries. Ken Patera and Masonori Saito. both 40 and both from Minneapolis, were booked for battery, resisting arrest, disorderly conduct, obstructing an officer and criminal damage to property. Officer Jacquelyn Hifcbard was held in a headlock. punched and slammed repeatedly against a wall, police said. "It took two sets of handcuffs" to subdue Saito, said a Waukesha officer, and it took six officers to restrain the man while the cuffs were put on.

"Most experts agree that many drunken drivers persist in their behavior because they have a perception of low risk of arrest and penalty." The report cited a recent nationwide telephone survey that indicated between one-fourth and one-third of drivers who drink say they believe the chances of being caught and punished are not great enough to deter them. "While the rate of drunken driving arrests depends largely on the aggressiveness of local law enforcement efforts, estimates of the probability of arrest vary form one in 200 drunken drivers to one in 2.000." the study said.

The club, which annually recognizes the "Bonehead of the Year" for committing a monumental goof, celebrated its 65th birth­ day Friday by applying for Social Security benefits. A group of Dallas businessmen and educators founded the club in 1919 as a way to cheer up jeweler W.C. Everett, who lost a son at the end oi World War I. In the late 1940s, the Boneheads hired big game hunter Frank Buck to find a mate for a lonesome giraffe in the Dallas zoo. They also were the first customers at a Dallas "motor bank." where they tried to deposit a motor. This year's Bonehead award went to an unsung German immigrant who. according to newspaper accounts in the 1860s. was the first man to fly an airplane, predating the Wright brothers by more than 30 years.

I didn't expect anything like this," the 9-year-old said, standing on the Juchem Elementary School's auditorium stage before 200 applauding schoolmates.

(UPI) - Officers who came to a Greyhound bus station to resolve a dispute over a lost rental locker key ended up making the biggest cocaine seizure in ci­ ty history, police said Saturday. When the locker was opened, they discovered 14 kilograms of pure cocaine, valued at $840,000 uncut and between $5 million and $8 million if processed for sale on the street, Lt. Ray Jordan said. Leading to the discovery was an argument between three young people and the manager of the bus station. The three were arguing Thursday night in the bus depot over the lost key and then asked the station manager to open it, Jordan said. When he refused, one of the men offered him $500. but he did not change his mind. The three became so angry that the manager called police, who arrived and supervised the opening of the locker. In it. they found a blue duffel bag containing the 14 1-kilogam packages. The man who had offered the bribe had disappeared, but his two companions, Daniel McCullough. 23, and Laura Sullivan. 22. both transients, were arrested on the spot. They were booked on suspicion of possession of cocaine jfor sale.

Shown this picture, 67 percent of those students polled on Central's campus did not know the man was the president of the university, Dr. Donald Garrity. Only one-third of CWU's students would recognize Cen­ tral President Donald Garrity if they saw him on the mall, accor­ ding to a poll conducted recently by The Observer. Students polled were evenly distributed among all class stan­ dings and between both sexes.. " As part of a five-question cur­ rent events survey, the 54 students polled were shown a photograph of Garrity and were asked, "Who is this man?" Sixty-eight percent of the women and 65 percent of the men polled did not know the president. In addition, just 33 percent knew that George Schultz is the U.S. Secretary of State, 39 per­ cent knew that Slade Gorton is Washington state's senior senator, 39 percent knew that the first Democratic caucus this year was in Iowa and 44 percent knew that the Winter Olympic games were in Yugoslavia. Many of the students queried thought Slade Gorton was gover­ nor, Caspar Weinberger was Secretary of State, the Democratic caucus was in Ohio and the Olympics were in Sara­ jevo, Switzerland. One student thought President Garrity was television newscaster Roger Mudd. This survey was conducted one week after the Iowa caucus and two weeks after the Olympic games had ended. Before being asked the five cur­ rent events questions, the students were asked, "Do you consider yourself well informed?" "Do you watch a television newscast more than three times a week?" and "Do you read a newspaper more than three times a week?" Senior men were the only students who consistently read a paper and watched a newscast more than three times a week. They also got more questions right than any other group. In fact, they were in the only category which got more answers right than wrong. Survey Results QuestioMir*: i ^,ci .** Percentage ofcorrect answers 1. Who is the U.S. Secretary of State? 2.

April 5th. A mystery for the past month. Central Anally observed- the debut edition of The Observer last Thursday. The Observer, which replaced the 57-year-old Campus Crier as CWU's official newspaper, brought mixed reactions. BOD President Michael Caine issued a proclama­ tion stating that "today is a dynamic day for Cen­ tral" at a special BOD meeting last Friday, while Professor Russell Hansen said The Observer "doesn't move me." For the most part, reactions to the new paper have been favorable. Many seem to favor the new format over the Campus Crier's. "I like the color and the new format," said junior Judy Throop. Rich Simpkins, a senior said he thinks the paper is more organized and the stories are better writ­ ten than the old paper. However, the new format didn't meet with everyone's approval. Senior Dan Wood said The Observer was cosmetically fine but it reminded him too much of the national newspaper - USA Today. "When I opened The Observer, it looked like the USA Today in a condensed version," he said. " I'm not really a fan of that paper. I'd like to see more in-depth articles and more of a mixture of opinion in the Innerview section." The Innerview section -- a section where several students are asked for their opinion on a subject ~ however, drew praise from several people. Mary Hughes, a senior, said she liked the way In- nerviews presented different sides of an issue. She also praised the whole editorial-opinion section as a whole. Janet Shove, a secretary in the ASC office, said she liked the paper on the whole but disagreed with Editor Alan Anderson's opinion on the BOD. Several others shared Shove's opinion as indicated by many letters received by The Observer this week. But the general concensus is that most students are satisfied with the change and, according to senior Cynthia Parker, reading The Observer is like reading a college newspaper, not a high school newspaper. .. ft ft ' *• / il m&m Ifflllll v - ft X A •mm. mm —' -" lrrr"rrr^rTTi" ^ " M : K. • Thursday, April 12, 1984 OBSERVING — Copies of The Observer, Central's new student newspaper, were distributed throughout Ellensburg last week.

' • Graduate School For many, advanced degree is a distinct advantage - ^Sy ' V : .Sv : '•' , ^ " : By SUSAN COTTMAN Of The Observer For those students who haven't been burned out by four years of undergraduate school and want to con­ tinue their education, getting a graduate degree can be a good idea. Admission to a graduate program is the first hurdle to overcome and one factor at Central is the Graduate Record Examination (GRE). Central requires appplicants to take the GRE besides applying, have letters of recommendation, a three-point grade point average for the last 90 credits of undergraduate work and a personal statement of educational objectives and professional aims, according to Britta Jo Hammond, administrative assistant in graduate admissions and records. The GRE is the only test Central re­ quires, she said. This standardized test measures language and math skills in two sec­ tions and how well students would do in a graduate program, Hammond said. According to Dale Comstock, dean of graduate studies, the GRE is "pretty reliable." Have a Blooming Good Summer at W (/N\N® MD PTC mi 1 Grow With Us This Summtr at UPS Attmtf SumiM?

"It provides comparative information we don't get otherwise and data with which we can compare the 300,000 students across the country who take it each year," he said. Comstock said one misconception students have is that they pass or fail the GRE. He said the score students receive tends to be confirming of their grade point average.

Grad School From page 7A. marginal, the GRE score will show that," Comstock said. Comstock has been appointed to the GRE board, which is made up of univer­ sity personnel from across the United States, and sets policies and directs research studies for the test. He recently attended a meeting in Princeton, N.J. of the Educational Testing Service which contracts with the board to operate the tests, Com­ stock said. The GRE board also conducted discussions across the country to get student feedback on the test, he said. Students who represented Central in the Feb. 2 Seattle discussion were Catherine Armstead, a psychology graduate student, and Karl Sodt, an art graduate student, according to Corn- stock. Armstead said the discussion focilsed mainly on the GRE information bulletin which goes out to students. The bulletin is a test-taking strategy booklet containing practice tests. Students commented on aspects of the bulletin they thought it could be im­ proved, she said. Proposals, which included changing the format to make the bulletin less monotonous, will be considered by the board before it decides how to design the 1984-85 bulletin, Armstead said. She stressed, however, that no changes are definite. Other possibilities discussed were having forums where students could talk to representatives from different fields they're interested in, she said. Also, the board might add another date for students to take the GRE, but these aren't certain either. Armstead said she thinks it's impor­ tant for students to remember the GRE isn't the only indicator for admission. "If the student didn't do well on the GRE but has * a high grade point average, the average will be looked at," she said. Comstock said he and most people are opposed to using the GRE as the single measure for admission. The test, however, presents the kind of situation students are confronted with in academic and professional lives, he said. "They are similar pressures students have to deal with," he said. Comstock said there has been a rebirth of interest in the GRE as another measure of academic ability along with grade point average and letters of recommendation. According to Hammond, Central re­ quires the GRE except for two pro­ grams—master of science in math and master of science in chemistry, which require advanced tests. A $29 fee is charged for both types of tests, she said. The GRE is offered six times a year and students must register a month before they can take it and receive scores a month after the test, Ham­ mond said. Test-taking strategy books are available in the bookstore, she said.

m Prof calls statement 'an insult' to students By JEFF MORTON Of The Observer Some faculty members have taken excep­ tion to a statement by Faculty Senate Chair­ man Phil Backlund which implied that the B.A. in education degree is inferior to a straight B.A. or B.S. degree. Backlund's remark was reported in the March 8 issue of the Campus Crier in a story about the elimination of the B.A. education degree except in elementary education, ear­ ly childhood education and special educa­ tion. "Calling the B.A. education degree a lesser degree than a B.A. or B.S. is an insult to every student on campus who gets a B.A. education degree," said David Shorr, assis­ tant professor of early childhood education. He said he felt Backlund's remark was not the correct reason and was merely an opi­ nion. "I find Dr. Backlund's comment very silly and very elitist, it doesn't reflect the reason for the degree designation," Shorr said. "It was a flippant statement that the B.A. education degree is somehow not as valuable as a B.A. or B.S. degree. Also given that he is the Faculty Senate chairman and has been involved in the discussion is Unbelievably flippant." Backlund said he made the comment because, under the change, some depart­ ments would have an option to increase the number of credits required for teaching part of the degree. Now. however, Backlund said he can see his critics' side of the debate. "I do see the implications that could have been derived and it was an ill-advised thing for me to say." In 1982 the degree change was proposed but the senate could not agree on all of the recommendations. An ad hoc committee of faculty and administrators was formed dur­ ing the winter of 1983 to study the elimina­ tion of the degree. Beverly Heckart, chairman of the commit­ tee, said it recommended elimination of the degree at the Jan. 23 Faculty Senate meeting. One of the proposals was a 15-credit in­ crease in the elementary education pro­ gram. The senate voted to accept the recommen­ dation for elimination at its Feb. 8 meeting, but the education department contested the proposed increase from 45 tp 60 credits in the elementary education program. The Faculty Senate reconsidered, and passed a motion eliminating the 15-credit increase at its March 9 meeting. The recommendations, which go into ef­ fect fall 1985, will create the following changes for education students: — The B.A. in education degree except for three programs — early childhood educa­ tion, elementary education and special education — will be eliminated. — For each B.A. or B.S. degree program with a teaching emphasis, the education specialty shall be distinct from non-teaching specialties. — Each department which prepares students in subjects commonly taught in secondary schools may offer the following options — one or more majors of 45-60 credits for secondary teachers a 60-75 credit broad area major, with no more than 60 credits from the major department and at least 15 credits from other departments or a 60-75 credit major in which all courses may be from one department. According to Heckart, the reasons for the change were a desire to more accurately reflect a student's course of study and a desire to more closely conform to the prac­ tices of other four-year institutions,. "In most states the B.A. education degree has been eliminated," Heckart said. "I have no qualms about the change if that is what most of the universities are doing, and if that is what the structure of higher education is," Shorr said. "But if we are changing it just because the name will make it stronger, then why don't we just change the students' degrees to a Ph.D?" Students to be offered free immunizations Last Thursday 61 percent of the residence hall managers and living group advisers (LGAs) received vaccinations against measles, mumps and rubella. These shots were the first step in a voluntary immuniza­ tion program to protect CWU students against the diseases. Starting next Tuesday, other students will have a chance to get a free MMR shot. "Measles is one of the most infectious diseases known to man," said Dr. Steve Laney. organizer of the campus immuniza­ tion program. "We are advising students to. take advantage of this opportunity and get immunized even if they were immunized before because there is a chance that the im­ munization did not take the first time." In order to protect against a measles out­ break on campus, the student health center and the Kittitas County Health Department have started a voluntary immunization pro­ gram for Central students. The free vaccinations will be offered at the dining halls. Shots are also available at the "HE'S VI DON FRANCISCO McConnell Auditorium \ Sunday April 15,1984 7:30 pm no charge, free wilt offering sponsored by Cm A Sail Co. Outreach and Concert Specialties county health department (507 Nanum St.) Monday through Friday from 1 to 4:30 p.m., but the usual fee there is $5. Free vaccinations may also be offered to university faculty, staff and their dependents after the students are immuniz­ ed. The times and locations for the free vac­ cinations are: Holmes Dining Hall — Tuesday. April 17, 4:30-6:30 p.m. Thursday. April 19. 4:30-6:30 p.m. Tunstall Commons — Tuesday, April 24, 4:30-7 p.m. Depot Deli — Thursday, April 26, 4:30-7:30 p.m. In 1983.51 percent of all reported measles cases were associated with college cam­ puses. Those with the highest risk are the students who live in college residence halls. Health researchers estimate that 15 per­ cent to 20 percent of the college-age popula­ tion is susceptible to measles because of the lack of immunization or failure of the im­ munization to result in protection. This lack of protection is important because measles is more serious in adults than in children. People 20 and older have had the highest death-to-case ratio in recent years. Complications such as middle ear in­ fection or bronchopneumonia can occur with measles. If a person was Immunized by an early vaccine or vaccinated before he was a year old, the immunization may not be effective. Several outbreaks of measles have oc- cured in Washington state since January. The outbreaks in Snohomish and King Counties still are not completely controlled. In response to the outbreaks, the Washington State Department of Social and Health Services, the American College Health Association and the U.S. Public Health Service have all issued statements urging adl universities to establish an im­ munization program.

The torch will be lit in the Greek village of Olympia and carried by hand to Athens, then shot by laser to a satellite and reflected back to New York City for the beginning of the .cross-country run May 8, organizers said. The relay will pass through 41 of the na­ tion's biggest cities and about 1,000 smaller communities in a route larely deternmined by the controversial sale of one-kilometer sponsorships for $3,000. Although the money will be contributed to youth sports organizations, the sponsor­ ships angered Greek officials who complain­ ed that an ancient tradition was being tainted by "honky tonk" commercialism. The torch is scheduled to arrive July 28 at the Coliseum, the chief venue for the Sum­ mer Games. It has not yet been announced who will run the final leg into the stadium and light the flame in a large torch first used in the 1932 Olympics. "The route was designed to go where peo­ ple indicated they had interest in par­ ticipating in the Olympic Torch relay and where it was Iogistically feasible," Joel Fishman, director of the relay for the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee, said. The relay, scheduled to last 82 days, will begin in New York City and head up the Atlantic coast to Boston. Runners will then pass through Connecticut and New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore en route to Washington, where the torch will be carried past the Capital, the White House and several other landmarks. The torch will be carried through New Mexico, Colorado. Utah, Idaho and Washington to Seattle, then head south through Oregon and Nevada, with former decathlon champion Bruce Jenner carrying the flame across the border into California.

Wilkening From page 1A was flown from Olympia to assist. At 5:10 a.m. a SWAT team member used a bullhorn to attempt to communicate with Wilkening. After several attempts to make Wilkening respond, 12 more gunshots were fired from within the jail. At 5:29 a.m., a radio transmission from police inside the jail to officers outside quoted Wilkening as saying, "I'm here to wreak havoc and hate." A few minutes later, after a SWAT team member called to Wilkening using the name Jim Kincaid (the man police originally thought was inside the Jail), Wilkening was heard saying that Kincaid was not his name. The only other comment Wilkening was known to have made was his message to authorities when he told them his name and asked them to "cancel the surgery and schedule an autopsy." Officials learned later Wilkening was scheduled for a routine apendectomy In Seattle the next day. At 5:48 a.m. a SWAT team sharpshooter radioed that he "could have a shot" at Wilkening. Sheriff Tom Young replied almost immediately. "Take him. Wait for a good shot." Seconds later the fatal shot was fired by the same unnamed sharpshooter. After soft moans were heard from inside and police dogs were sent in two hours later to find Wilkening, the final call came over . the police radio: "Subject is down, wearing a metal vest. All is clear." Young said after a year of investigation with no new answers, the case is now officially closed. But even though the investigation has ceased. Young is still perplexed by the incident. "If we could rationalize a reason -any reason -- we could put a finish to the whole thing. Quite frankly, it will never be finished. "What got him started we still don't know. We'll never know. It will be haunting us until we have the answer." One thing is certain in Young's mind, however - the outcome of the ordeal was his only option. "I'm convinced the acts taken were the only ones left open to us," Young said. 'Tm satisfied they were proper." Young speculates after talking to a psychologist that Wilkening's actions could have been a glorified attempt at suicide. "A lot of times a person wants to commit suicide but doesn't want to do it himself." he said. "In any case, in my own mind, there's no doubt he had no intention of coming out." Young isn't the only person confused by Wilkening's actions of a year ago. Friends, who recall the youthful Wilkening, considered him something of a teen-age "Thomas Edison." Many who remember him said he was constantly involved in chemical experiments and was particularly fascinated with guns. He made several of them, one of which he used at the jail, from scratch. Brent Callahan, a former classmate of Wilkening's at Morgan Junior High, called Wilkening "the smart guy. the kind of guy with the calculator on his belt." Wilkening always had interests other than school work. Probably bored by it. he eventually quit! Later he took the General Equivalency Diploma Test in order to gain admission to CWU. His scores, according to CWU records, were outstanding. He finished in the 90th percentile in all five categories of the test, scoring in the 99th percentile in the reading and science portions. Mike Genson, his eighth grade math teacher said Wilkening was "the type of kid I'd say. 'Boy, we're going to read about that kid someday in the newspaper.'" But no one thought he would be making the headlines he did. jat HOMEMADE MACHINE GUN — One of the two automatic weapons Harvey Wilkening carried into the Kittitas County Jail last year was a homemade, hand­ held machine gun. Young Sv'1:" v- From page 1A restaurateur for 10 years I would not have been able to handle it." Young said the Wilkening ordeal was an extreme, but all part of the job as sheriff. "This whole thing is a stressful situation, eight hours a day. Stress is one of the greatest factors in law enforcement." What made Young's job much easier, the sheriff said, was the cooperation of the five different law enforcement agencies involved. "It would have been very easy for one person to squeeze off a round (of gunfire). That would have made it very easy for five others to do the same. The cold that night, the stress and the frustrations could have easily led somebody to create a situation that would have taken us a long time to gain control of. "Even in the planning sessions there was no argument as to who had command. The SWAT team was brought here to help us. There was no argument that they weren't to move until I gave the go ahead." Even though Young says he has come to grips with what happened, he said he doesn't care to do it again - unless he has to. "It's not something you want to go through," he said. "The odds are that I will not have to go through that again in my career. And that's OK with me. I'm more than able to do it again. I just don't particularly want to have to." « -Vy: / : CHECKMATE!

v:: The Ranch provides practical Experience for Central student 'One mistake and I'm closed' By KELLY MILLER Of The Observer 5:K PM'. •. • • • • - •m: For years we have heard that a college degree will help get your foot in the door, but is no guarantee of success. Practical "hands- on" experience is the key to success in the "real" world. Bob Winn, a CWU student, takes that ad­ vice seriously. Aside from attending college, Winn also owns and operates his own business, the Ranch Tavern on the old Vantage highway. According to Winn, the lower half of the building which houses the Ranch was built around 1943 as a train station for Ellensburg. The top half of the building is part of an old aircraft hangar. During World War I, the building func­ tioned as a "bring your own bottle club" for pilots being trained for the war. After the war it became a tavern and has operated as such ever since. Winn said he got this historical informa­ tion from a 76-year-old man who came in to reminisce over a beer. Winn didn't know the man's name. Winn's association with the Ranch began in the summer of 1983. He worked closely with the former owner, Don Ball, to open the tavern for the Ellensburg Rodeo weekend. He managed the tavern for Ball, who lives in Edmonds. Ball decided to sell the tavern last fall because the commute over the mountain was inconvenient. The building never went to the open market. Rather, a deal was made between Ball and Winn. The tavern was closed for several weeks this winter while Winn was obtaining all legal permits. Winn said the transfer df the : liquor license is what held him up. He finally received his liquor license on March 5 and his doors opened on March 7. Winn plans to open every Wednesday, Fri­ day and Saturday night. He has some of "the most popular bands in the state" lined up for spring quarter. He has a band booked every weekend throughout the quarter, and one on nearly every Wednesday. Winn said he wants to bring in Seattle ~:fii'A '• K:- . '• . - vvi. \ . ' - bands. :Wi. "Ellensburg is a closed market," he said. "Everyone is locked in. Now you have a 'V- y .. -• •' —•" yy--y, yyyi,y -• ' ' 'J'' aa«r:• yV.! • r. is • .•*: • : ... . Profile chance to see top Seattle bands without the drive." Winn books bands through Doug Boad from Seattle-based Far West. The line-up for spring quarter will attract mostly college students. Next fall, however, music selection will be more balanced as Winn plans to bring in country bands, as well as rock bands, "in an attempt to cater to locals," he said. Winn has recently incorporated a Ladies' Night on Saturdays. Cover for ladies is $1. Winn said that the biggest draw on Ladies' Night is the men, ironically, but the ratio of males to females is pretty good. Winn is a part-time student at Central. He said the business has little effect on his grades so far. although the Ranch does come first. He puts in 60 to 80 hours a week runn­ ing the tavern. Winn has four employees who are also CWU students. Daryl Turner, Mike Manship and John Lovitt are full-time employees. Rob Nist is Winn's part-time "do it all" employee. Winn said his biggest problem is watching for minors and fake identification. He is ultimately responsible if a minor gets in. "One mistake and I'm closed," he said. Therefore, his policy is that everyone has to have ID on them and show it at the door. Another problem Winn has encountered is overcoming the tavern's former image. It has been notorious for fights and minors, but Winn said that won't happen anymore. "In the past, the Ranch has been looked lowly upon,"said Winn. "I'm trying to change it to a more respectable place." An often-heard complaint about the Ranch from its patrons has been the sad shape of the restrooms. Winn said he plans to fix them up this summer. Other plans include remodeling to facilitate entrance for handicapped people. Next year, Winn's remodeling plans will include insulating the building, painting in­ side and out, and re-roofing. y,:y Jil® jp- A IIWP mm "liililll SS'sSw-i:.

"For fun." Two of Seattle's top club bands, the Cowboys and the Visible Targets, played EUensburg's Ranch Tavern on March 30 and 31. According to the Cowboys, the two bands have known each other for four years and get along well. The Visible Targets "love the Cowboys." They said that when playing in Eastern Washington it is often necessary to play together. The two bands work together often. The Cowboys originally formed in 1979. Since then they have gone through several band members. Vocalist Ian Fisher and bassist Jack Hanan are the only two original members. The band nearly brol e up in August 1983. But the addition fj ?jg^ guitarist Ernie Sapiro and drummer I ark Watts-Guenther "saved the band fron breaking up," said Fisher. The band attributes ts rise to success to hard work, good player i, good luck and that they "believe in what1 re are doing." Known as strictly^ ^playing band, the Cowboys "play more bi rs, colleges and high schools than any oth r band in the Nor­ thwest," said Fisher.

The Cowboys saia jtHey enjoy playing Eastern Washington and think that Ellensburg "is a great town to play in." They added that they always feel welcome here. The Visible Targets, Formed in 1980, still have all four original members, oarff^! Vocalist/keyboari Laura Keane," vocalist/bassist Rebecca Hamilton, lead guitarist Pamela Golden and drummer Ron Simmons are all Yakima natives. Although originally from Yakima, their base is Seattle, as they have been there since the band formed four years ago. Since leav­ ing for the "big city." the Visible Targets have only played once in Yakima, according to Hamilton. "There is not a market for our kind of music in Yakima," she said. The band's new album, "Autistic Savant" has been doing quite well on college cam­ puses. They attribute the album's success to its promotion and distribution which is done through JEM Records. They said they enjoy playing college towns. This was their first gig in Ellensburg and they, too, said they felt welcome. If you missed this show in Ellensburg, you can most likely see the bands in Seattle next time you are there. In Seattle, however, you may not be able to catch these two dynamic bands playing together in the same club.

Megatrends makes a person think hard Senior Ball fills need for traditional events By KIM STOKES Of The Observer Megatrends, a bestseller by John Naisbitt, is about the current directions American society is taking. Sounds kind of boring, huh? Some of the reading is rather dry, but I found the majori­ ty of the book quite interesting. The 10 chapters in the book examine each of the "megatrends" in-depth. There were three chapters that I found especially noteworthy. Chapter 1 deals with the shift from an in­ dustrial to an information-based society. In discussing this. Naisbitt uses some scare tactics to emphasize the need for such a shift in the economy. Ke states that when faced with a change from industry- to information-based economy, our society will look at it, and then ignore it. "Yet. we do so at great risk to our com­ panies, our individual career, our economy as a whole," he writes. "Out of touch with the present, we are doomed to fail in the un­ folding future." What a pleasant thought for those of us soon to be entering the working world. The "megatrend" in Chapter 3 is from a national to a global economy. Says Naisbitt, "No longer do we have the luxury of operating within an isolated, self-sufficient, national economic system we must now acknowledge that we are part of a global economy." Being the flag-waving American that I am, this was a surprising and difficult chapter ft? itffiYnVi'* ' Hmmmm X for me to read. In this chapter. Naisbitt cites drops in America's productivity growth, world manufacturing and domestic market share. Hardly what you'd call uplifting reading. Chapter 9 concerns the population shift from the North to the South and West. For the first time in America's history, the North and East totaled a lower population. In Naisbitt's opinion, this is because of a combination of three of the other megatrends — a change from an industrial to an information-based society, the move from a national to a global economy and the reorganization from a centralized to a decen­ tralized society. In this chapter, Naisbitt also cites 10 cities (in the Southwest and West) with the greatest opportunities in high technology in­ formation and briefly profiles each of them. Don't get me wrong here. This is not a depressing or boring book by any means. What it does is make you think. That in itself is no small feat and for that reason alone, this reviewer gives it a hearty thumbs up. Megatrends is available in paperback at the University Store. By SCOTT ANDREWS Of The Observer It may not be exactly the Ritz, but Mary Hewitt and Paul Henry suggest all seniors and faculty "go where fashion sits" at Cen­ tral — the Senior Ball. The April 27 event is the first senior ball in more than five years, according to Henry. It is being sponsored by the ASC, the Universi­ ty Store and the Alumni Association. The resurrection began in the spring of 1983 through the efforts of alumni director Gail Jones, who stressed the need for more traditional, senior-oriented events. The alumni association has "helped tremen­ dously" Hewitt said, adding that the group provided invitations and other essential items. Student coordinators Hewitt and Henry agree planning the event was difficult, but worth it. All faculty members and seniors as of v/inter quarter are invited to attend, Hewitt said. Guests are welcome. The cost is $6 per person or $10 per couple. The evening will include a no-host bar, catered hors d'oeuvres and dancing to the band "Janis." Hewitt said the band plays all types of music — from rock to easy listening. Semi-formal dress is required "to make it more special" than a regular dance. Both Hewitt and Henry got involved with the hope that the ball will once again become a tradition. "This is going to be a graduation celebra­ tion," said Henry. Hewitt agreed and added, "We've put four years of our lifetime and learning in here at Central . . . we want peo­ ple to leave with a good feeling." & * foundation ii rider attack.

$ Tonight! \ • . . . ' • " •.: ' ' ,••• •' "" *. . H , - . "' - ,. Huey Lewis brings News to Ellensburg By KELLY MILLER Of The Observer No News is not necessarily good news for Huey Lewis. The good news is that "Huey Lewis and the News" will perform tonight at CWU's Nicholson Pavilion at 8 o'clock. "We are glad to be coming that way," said Lewis during a telephone interview. "It's go­ ing to be exciting for us." Lewis said this is the band's first headlining tour since they formed five years ago. The tour is expected to last five months, with a few weeks off here and there. During that time, they will make approx­ imately 110 stops. Three of those will be in Washington state. During their three-day stay in Washington, the band will play in Seattle, Pullman and Ellensburg. Lewis said they enjoy playing college towns. "I think the audiences are a little more discerning, maybe, in college towns," he said. They look forward playing in Ellensburg, Lewis said. They've played in Seattle several times over the past five years, but this will be their first trip to Ellensburg. Lewis attended college at Cornell Univer­ sity in upstate New York for two years before he "discovered music arid dropped out." He actually became interested in music as a teenager. He said his dad was a jazz drum­ mer and his mother was an artist. "I was always encouraged to do pretty much anything I wanted to," he said. "So I just sort of started in school." After leaving Cornell, Lewis returned home to Marin County, Calif., where he join­ ed the country-rock band Clover. The band went to England in the late 1970s. After Clover broke up, Lewis and former Clover keyboardist Sean Hopper formed the News along with guitarist Chris Hayes, Johnny Colla (guitar and saxophone), bassist Mario Cipollina and drummer Bill Gibson. All six members were originally friends. Lewis said he hasn't been in other suc­ cessful bands before the News. He attributes the News' success to "luck, more than anything else." Although they've certainly worked hard, Lewis said he thinks they were in the right place at the right time. The band's popularity has really soared with their new "Sports" album. Lewis said he didn't expect it at all. "We were just sort of lucky, really," he said. "We've become a much better recor­ ding band than before." They plan to cut another album next fall. Lewis said they have a couple of ideas now, but not enough to talk about yet. Commenting on the increased popularity of video music, Lewis said it is "definitely the coming thing." But, he said he has mix­ ed feelings about video music. On one hand, he said he thinks it is good because it is a new art form, people are do­ ing exciting things with it and it is "shaking up radio play to an extent." "The actor in me loves it we've had a good time with it," he said. But on the other hand, "Much in the same way as a great book is better than the movie, so a great song is always better than the video." Lewis said there is no room left for listener creativity. "A song can be many different things to many different people," he said. "Once a mmmm lilll msm mmmm wmmm wwmm 4MNMN1 tmm. HUEY LEWIS — Will he find his "new drug" in Ellensburg? video is made, it only means one thing because the translation is so literal. "The musician in me feels it is a bit of a shame." He said some bands owe their very ex­ istence to Music Television (MTV). "I don't think we are one of those," Lewis said. Radio started playing them heavily at the same time as MTV. Their success is ac­ tually dependent on a combination of the two. As far as the impact MTV has had on their record sales, Lewis is unsure because he doesn't know what the result would have been without it. Lewis said he feels that today, video music is vital to a band's success. He does enjoy it however. They conceive their videos themselves. "I insist on being in control of the forest," he said. "The trees are left up to a lot of other people." The rumor that the blond woman featured in their videos is Lewis' girlfriend is not true. According to Lewis, their mothers were "pals" and that's how they know each other. Thursday, April 12, 1984 The Observer — 3B •

By Kris Erikson/The Observer Student art in gallery Student work from CWU's art department will be on display in the Sarah Spurgeon Gallery. Randall Hall, April 10 through 20. The display is representative of quality work in a variety of media. A sampling of student works includes a paintstick and charcoal drawing by Fred Sodt. its message evident in content and in title — "A Cold Light and No Wind." The fanciful airbrush, watercolor and col­ ored pencil work by Suzanne Rene Hoefle entitled "Bear Necessity" was impossible to overlook, as was a strong metal/ceramic sculpture by Timm Wauzyski entitled "Arms." A bold oil on canvas by Gaylen Stewart, entitled "It's Hard to be Fair With Only One TV" catches the eye with color and content. Notable among the many excellent com­ mercial quality graphics were several mock magazine covers — particulcurly an untitled serigraph by Bob Gutierrez, and another, titled "Scientific American" by Jim Perry. Photographic renditions ranged from tonal to a graphic shot by Catherine Nisbet featuring stripes on stripes. Jewelry and pottery also were well represented. Of the latter, a decorative plate by Kevin Kruckenberg is ethereal in blue and white. The Student Art Show may be a stepping stone for many of Central's talented students. Sahlstrand said several advanced and graduate students have been accepted into national professional exhibits. "There are many juried exhibits around the country. A lot of our students have sub­ mitted to those shows," he said. "Ex­ perienced, sophisticated artist jurors and museum curators have seen their work and accepted it — rejecting, at the same time, hundreds of other works. "That is an indication of how artists — professional artists elsewhere — view a lot of student work from Central," Sahlstrand said. "It's a very positive thing and it in­ dicates strong work in the department." The Sarah Spurgeon Gallery is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. There is no ad­ mission charge.

Low IQers gather WASHINGTON (UPI) - A fun-loving group organized to offset MENSA, the high IQ organization, had its first national con­ vention in Texas on April Fool's Day. The counter-group calls itself DENSA, but don't let that name fool you. Being dense is not necessarily the same as being dumb. Or slow-witted. Or stupid. Or any of the other synonyms for a low IQ. You can be as smart as a whip and still be dense, in the sense of having a brain that is easily boggled by high technology. A new book. Ah, Bewilderness, touches on this meaning of dense. Subtitled Muddl­ ing Through Life, it calls attention to the thousands of "tiny crises and glitches" that are so much a part of everyday living. "The dense get in the wrong lines, lose the instructions, spring forward when they should fall back, get stuck on line 2A of the IRS form," says the author, Mary Gray, a former White House speech writer.

Sports Record no concern to Ehler By DAVE COOK Of The Observer NOT CONCERNED — Central leading hitter Troy Phelps isn't con­ cerned about the Wildcats' current los­ ing skid. "I'm not panicking," Phelps said. Winning is always nice, as Central's baseball team will attest to, but losing can have its good points as well. The Wildcat baseballers will attest to that as well. Struggling early with a 2-16 record (not in­ cluding yesterday's doubleheader with Gon- zaga University), Central's team has both profited and suffered from its shortfall in the win column. But with the season barely a third over, the team is not about to give up the ship. Including first-year Central coach Dale Ehler. "There may be some people out there who have labeled us as losers," Ehler said. "We may have lost a lot of games, but I think this team is far from being losers. "I'm not concerned about the losses at all. This team does have some character and some pride in ourselves whether we win or not. I still feel once this ballclub does put it all together they're going to be hard to beat." Ehler's lack of concern is because the lackluster record fortunately has no bearing upon the team's post-season playoff chances. Central is 1-1 against NAIA teams (excluding Lewis-Clark State College), and is still in the hunt for one of three District 1 playoff berths. The Wildcats' record against NAIA teams is the record the playoff berths are based upon. Central still has 11 scheduled NAIA games .to play, and may also make up four others that were rained out earlier this season. Games played against Lewis-Clark, the defending national NAIA runnerup, do not count in Central's NAIA record. The War­ riors will not play in the district or area playoffs because they are hosting the na­ tional NAIA tournament this year and gain an automatic berth into the tourney. "I'm sure there are also a lot of people who see our record and think we're out of the playoff picture," Ehler said. "We're a long way from being out of it." The team's losing season has been the result of Ehler's philosophy of playing the best available competition. In Central's case the best available competition has been teams in the Pacific 10 Conference's Nor­ thern Division. Of Central's first 16 losses, 11 have been to Pacific 10 teams, four to L-C State and the other loss to District 1 member Whitworth. f "We're going to take our lumps," explain­ ed Ehler. "But this is going to make us tougher. One of this team's goals was not to go undefeated but make a good showing in the playoffs." Team captain and leading hitter Troy Phelps agrees. "I'm not panicking," he said. "Some of the guys are concerned, but I don't think it's anything to worry about. "Down the line we're going to be better in the tougher situations. Sooner or later we're going to have to play the tough teams anyway. We're just going to be prepared for it." "The bigger schools don't make a lot of mistakes," Ehler explained. "They act as a model to show our team that you can't de­ pend on the other guy to mess up. That's ex­ actly what has happened to us. Instead of other teams giving us runs, we're giving them runs." Ehler admits that he didn't expect wins to be so hard to come by. He thought his scheduling was sound, but a bit of bad luck has cost his team those wins. He scheduled a pair of doublehe aders against NAIA teams earlier in the stason, but in both instances the Wildcats were rained out. In one of those doublehead ers. Central was leading Pacific Lutheran 5 0 in the first game, but the games were called because of rain in the third inning. Ehler just hopes the combination of bad luck and the team's win-loss record doesn't hurt the team's confidence very much. "I hope the losing doesn't get our ballclub down," he said. "I'm worried that they might think if they can't win now ihey can't win later. If we let this thing get to us, we're in trouble. "Losing is tough on the guys," added Phelps, offering a perspective from the player's standpoint. "He wants us to put the record behind us, but that's pretty tough to do." But both Ehler and Phelps expect the team to break out of its predicament very soon. With most of its remaining games against NAIA teams, both think the ex­ perience playing against tougher competi­ tion will pay dividends when playoff time rolls around. "We can pull out of it real fast." Phelps said. "Winning is going to take care of a lot of things. I think we have a chance to peak at the right time once we get into a few winn­ ing situations." help each other out By BRENDA BERUBE Of The Observer . How well can a Crowell jump if a Crowell can jump well? Well, it depends on if that Crowell is Tom or Katie. Tom and Katie Crowell, Central's brother- sister jumping team from Tacoma, have both already qualified for the NAIA District 1 meet in Ellensburg May 11 and 12. For Tom, a junior, competing in the district meet is old hat to him. He placed third in the triple jump in 1982 with a jump of 46 feet, 2 XA inches and again in 1983 (44-11 Vi). He qualified this season with a jump of 43-7. Tom has also qualified in the long jump with a jump of 21-9. Katie, a freshman, qualified for the district meet with a long jump of 16-5% earlier this season. But she had a personal best of 16-10 in last Saturday's CWU Invitational track and field meet. Both took up track and field when it was introduced to them in the seventh grade. They are the only two family members who have seriously participated in the sport. Katie said that she had been watching Tom jump and when track season rolled around she wanted to take part too. They agree support from each other has been the key factor to their success. "He's helped me a lot, especially this year." Katie said. "He always stands at the board and watches everything I do. He'll tell me to 'get your head up' or 'get your legs down' and then I try, but get them all turned around in my .head." "She can tell me if I've got the height L need and I'll ask her questions like how I hit the board," Tom said. "She tells me what she thinks I've done wrong and that helps out a bit." Support from Tom and Katie's parents is also important, the jumping duo said. "Our parents are thrilled that we're both doing something at the same time," Katie said. Tom and Katie's decision to come to Cen­ tral was partially due to Fife High School track coach Steve Slavens, who graduated from Central in 1972 after setting records in the 100- and 220-yard dashes and the 440 relay. According to Mrs. Crowell, they are Slavens' pride and joy. "He's just so proud of them," she said. "My high school track and football coaches went here and they both talked about my coming here," Tom said. "I came more or less for both. I like football and track." Fife didn't have a long jump coach so Tom took over the job and coached Katie along. Katie was always following in Tom's spikes. "I kind of had to do well, but it was positive because I wanted to be as good as Tom," Katie said. Tom and Katie still find time to return to Fife and pass on their knowledge in the field of jumping. Katie works with the girls and Tom with the boys, giving them the pointers that have gotten them this far. But Tom and Katie don't leave everything to skill. According to Mrs. Crowell, Katie is on her third 'lucky' Mickey Mouse shirt and Tom still wears his 'lucky' sweats from the m • llliPi® «8li liiiiiii llliill — , I • 1111 ?** WWW si By Jeff Leak/The Observer JUMPING FOR JOY — Katie and Tom Crowell, Central's brother-sister jumping duo, have a lot to be happy about. seventh grade. because you know you have to catch up to As for the district meet, both are looking to them," Katie added.

. . . - - - - ^ - • x.f: Intramural Spotlight v. Intramural softball off to a grand slam start By KEVIN ROEN Of The Observer Another quarter of throwing errors and wind-blown pop-ups — a.k.a. intramural softball — is under way, and league coor­ dinator Jerry Findley says things are going quite well. There are 96 teams and between 1,400 and 1,500 players taking their cuts at the round white object this spring. Of the total number of teams, nearly half — 42 — are coed. Originally there were to be only two coed leagues, but those filled up so fast that Findley was forced to add another league. The league officially opened play Monday as the first pitch of the pre-season tourna­ ment was unceremoniously thrown out. Semifinals and finals of the tournament will be today. The men's semifinals will be at 3 p.m., with the coed semifinals at 4 p.m. The finals for men's and women's leagues will be at 4 p.m., followed by the coed league final at 5 p.m. Findley said he was surprised by the number of students and teams who are will­ ing to take their cuts at intramurals. "The response to softball has been outstanding," Findley said. "We have many more teams than we expected." However, just because intramural softball has been immensely popular does not mean all has been errorless for the organization of the league. For a time, because of an unusual set of circumstances, it appeared as if intramural softball was going to lose the use of two of its six fields. The football team, holding its first spring practices ever, lost the usual practice field because the physical plant deemed it necessary to re-seed it. That forced the foot­ ball team to relocate to a pair of intramural softball fields when football practice starts April 30. Findley said he and physical education department chairman John Gregor talked with Wayne Jackson, the maintenance supervisor of the physical plant, and con­ vinced him to postpone the re-seeding until after the intramural season. In the wake of this near intramural disaster, Findley calmly referred to it as, "no big deal." The only major difference between this yeiar's diamond doings and those of past years is that umpires will now be present for coed games. In the past, umpires were used only for men's and women's league games. Findley said this is definitely a turn for the better. "In the past it has been a real headache. • 7-"-'--7'--7 • •*. • ' - : . • te: JE" 'V. • .... -7 F®D •V- v., /7.::..:./ 77 7.7- •7777. * ''Mb .. m 7- .. 7i® :• 7"-:f'v 7,5 7777*7. ,777' - 77i 7 :7T mm:, mm?- .77 7-P .v77777 nsm &i.

Teams must be comprised of 10 coed members, five of each sex. There is a $10 entry fee for all teams. Intramural Coordinator Jerry Findley said there are plenty of openings for interested teams. He hopes that between 10 and 12 teams will test their aquatic skills. The deadline for sign-ups is 5 p.m. tomorrow. Events will vary from swimming to div­ ing, including the coed double bondage 25-yard swim. In this event, two swimmers are bonded at the wrist, thus requiring a cer­ tain amount of swimming proficiency. Other events include the belly flop con­ test, inner tube relay, T-shirt relay and the multiplying kickboard relay. Distances of the races will be from 25 yards up to the 200-yard relay event. A stroke judge will be at poolside to enforce fairness. The belly flop, expected to be the highlight of the day's festivities, will be judged on the basis of the height of the splash created by the entry, the sound of the entry into the water and the crowd's response. A three-person panel of judges will score the event. CWU hoop game on TV tonight Central's first-round victory in the na­ tional NAIA basketball tournament will be televised tonight at 7 p.m. on KCWU Televison.

Men's coach Spike Arlt will be looking for more members of his team to qualify for the District 1 track meet at Central's Tomlinson Field May 11 and 12. Arlt's team has qualifiers to district in all but the 800-meter run, 400 hurdles, 3.000 steeplechase and the shot put. He also hopes several tracksters will also qualify for nationals May 24-26 at Charleston, W.V. "We're running in the top three in district, but we still have a lot of quality and depth that we have yet to see," Arlt said. The 'Cats qualified five more tracksters last Saturday at the CWU Invitational to boost its total number of district qualifiers to 26. Team scores were not kept at the meet. James Hasty and Tony Johnson led the first-time qualifiers at Saturday's meet with times of of 11.0 and 11.1 seconds, respec­ tively, in the 100 meters. Other qualifiers in­ cluded Scott Smith (high jump), Tom Crowell (long jump) and Pierre Crockrell (triple jump).

Other qualifiers include Joe Imhof (200 and 400 dashes). Paul Harshman (1,500 meters), Steve Bator (110 high hurdles). Mike Spurr (pole vault). Bill Patrick (high jump). Keith Winkle (high jump). David Bales (long jump), Dave Barta (hammer), Scott Londino (hammer), Mike Powell (javelin) and Rick McElwee (discus). Harshman is Central's only national qualifier, having turned in a time of 4:00.6 in the 1,500 meters earlier in the season. Crockwell's performance in the triple jump in his first meet of the year Saturday was especially noteworthy. His jump of 47 feet, seven inches was second behind defen­ ding national NAIA champion Tommy Stewart from Whitworth. Stewart jumped 48-10 in Saturday's meet and 50-3Vz in win­ ning last year's national crown. Bruce Dudley was Central's lone male winner in last weekend's meet, turning in a time of 32:24.4 in winning the 10.000-meter run. There is no district qualifying time established in the 10.000. Women's coach Tim Clark will also be looking for improvement from his team this weekend in Bellingham.

'National Qualifier Baseball Central's baseball team hostd hard-hitting Lewis-Clark State College this weekend in a three-game series at CWU's baseball field. Central plays the Warriors Friday in a single game starting at 2 p.m. Saturday's doubleheader will start at 1 p.m. The Cats. 2-16 going into yesterday's doubleheader with Gonzaga University, have already played the Warriors four times this season. L-C, last year's national NAIA runnerup. scored 51 runs and pounded out 48 hits in downing Central in all four games. The closest of the four games was a 7-5 loss to the Warriors March 18 at the Banana Belt Tournament in Lewiston. Idaho. Central pitcher Greg Fry held the War­ riors to just four hits, but his 13 walks and five wild pitches all but decided the outcome of the game. The game was tied at five late in the game, but L-C scored two runs in the seventh inning to pull out the win. Central lost its other three games to Lewis-Clark at Lewiston last weekend. Cen­ tral was bombed 16-2 in the opener Friday, but led in both games Saturday before losing its eighth and ninth games in a row. Central lost the games by 17-8 and 11-7 scores. Senior centerfielder Blake Johnson led Central in batting last week by going 7-for-19 (.368 batting average). He was 2-for-4 in both Saturday games with L-C, but suffered a dislocated thumb in his final at bat. He is questionable for Friday's game.
