The CWU Board of Directors kicks off a well-planned, campus- wide petition drive today with hopes of obtaining the student support necessary to precede with incorporation. The measure deserves the support of the campus community. Regardless of the public relations tactics employed, it would seem impossible to generate a tremendous amount of student interest on this issue. Admittedly, it's difficult to get excited about incorporation with the possible results of the action as uncertain as they are. This first key step will simply open doors for the future. As a corporation, the ASC will have the ability to generate additional revenues, which will in turn, provide more for students. What is particularly attractive about the idea is that it will cost nothing ~ no taxes, no surcharges, nothing. Additional revenue .can be generated through donations, land acquisitions and even the establishment and operation of student-owned businesses in the Samuelson Union Building. Other incorporated student bodies have opened cocktail lounges, bowling alleys, hair salons and travel bureaus on campus for student use. While none of these are planned here in the immediate future, the options if the measure is approved are limitless. The BOD has taken a responsible stand on the incorporation issue. A simple election was originally scheduled. Three favorable votes in a turnout of five voters would have approved it. Realizing the historically low turnout of voters in student elections in recent years, the board opted for a petition drive, requiring the signatures of 51 percent of the CWU Ellensburg population. The members want to be certain incorporation is what the students want. . The BOD has done its part. It's time for you ~ the students - to do the rest. We urge you to sign the incorporation petition - today. RHC members in the wrong Since it developed four weeks ago, the Residence Hall Council controversy over chairman-elect Doug Pahl's eligibility has been a thorn in the side of virtually everyone involved. But in retrospect, the most disturbing part of the entire fiasco was the way Pahl was treated by several members of the organization. At last week's meeting the elected-then-ousted chairman was placed in an awkward and uncalled for situation. Pahl was put on the spot to defend his qualifications for a position to which he had already been elected. For nearly 30 minutes, Pahl was forced to defend his integrity. At times the, line of questioning became intentionally antagonistic. He fielded questions so diverse as whether or not he plans a snow retreat for RHC next year and whether his goal in college is to obtain a degree or to become chairman of RHC. Another issue that surfaced was Pahl's involvement in ASC committees. For some reason, two representatives seemed obsessed by the idea that Pahl was using RHC simply as a stepping stone to a position on the ASC Board of Directors. At one point, a Quigley Hall representative asked him directly if he planned to run for the BOD. The question related in no way to the topic at hand and it seemed that it was asked simply in hopes of undermining a man already under obvious pressure. To his credit, Pahl exhibited great poise. With the aid of his enemies, he displayed his ability to maneuver and control a situation which he, at first, seemed to have no hope of winning. The point is, Pahl should never have been placed in that situation. The question should have been whether the election four weeks prior was valicj, not whether Pahl would be a competent officer. The members made that decision the first time around. • "• •••'» '-J' • T *':* * • *• . . ,V •vI'RJ:' R"-". • - ' - I Editorial & Opinion f i 1 . .... .• .J .

I think it would really benefit the students. 1 do think that an apathetic attitude in the students will result if there aren't any visible kickbacks. Jennifer Caliison Junior, Off-campus It's a good idea, mainly because it'll produce more money, which means more ac­ tivities. Hopefully incorpora­ tion would bring more con­ certs, like the "Huey Lewis and the News" concert. 0 » $ J « t * * Lisa Gilbert Senior, Off-campus It sounds like a great idea.

Saundra Hundtoft Junior, Off-campus Incorporating the ASC would be more of a true-to-llfe situa­ tion. It would set up a fund for donations that can be used ef­ fectively for the students. Sparks innocent in RHC ordeal Editor: i After reading the past two issues of The Observer, I feel it is time to clarify a few things about the RHC situation. First of all, if all of the facts would have been gathered, one would have found that I knew nothing,about the at­ tempt to "oust" Doug Pahl until 4 p.m. Tuesday, April 17. When the council voted April 18 to add missing facts to the minutes, which caused Doug to tem­ porarily lose his position, I was no more pleased than Doug himself.. The cheerleader cartoons represent Something that is definitely untrue. It seeems to indicate that I am power hungry and will go to any length to ob­ tain a position already filled by Doug. I had no idea what was taking place behind the scenes, until I received a call from Leslie Bethards, RHC chair. I do know that The Observer has been hav­ ing fun at the expense of me and has been leading some people to believe things that are far from true. Doug may have been a victim of an unstable con­ stitution, but I was a victim of a •reporter who failed to collect both sides of the story. Sue Sparks Meisner Hall Officer disagrees with RHC coverage Editor: I am writinjfto you in reference to the April 26 Issue of The Observer. $ Your article outlining the current con­ troversy of Residence Hall Council has generated some hard feelings with me as an executive officer. It has been the goal of this year's ex­ ecutive officers to improve the struc­ ture and reputation of RHC to the best of our capabilities. I feel that we have come a long way in that challenge, and I am disheartened by the negative results your article has produced The notable achievements of RHC-this year have been masked by redicule from various groups on campus. These groups are ignorant to the positive aspirations of RHC because of lack of participation in the council The controversial meeting of April 18 presented a need for stronger organiza­ tional skills. I do not see this as a major problem because of..the funcional suc­ cess RHC has had this year. i As a learning organization there is always room for structural improve­ ment. These improvements are con­ structed upon detection of major pro­ blems in the system of RHC. The Observer's aggressive exploita­ tion of RHC as well as other university organizations leads me to question the level of professionalism you, as the editor, seek to achieve. I urge you to regard the campus newspaper not as an independent outlet for ill-disposed journalism, but as a cooperative component of the universi­ ty environment. John Bash RHC Public Relations Chairperson Editor developing National Enquirer Editor: For the past several weeks I have opened up The Observer with some hesitation. The reason for this feeling is that what I have been "observing" each week is you and your staff turning a campus lab newspaper into a college Na: tional Enquierer. Asja former Campus Crier staffer and current journalism major. I am appalled by your sensationalizing articles and headlines and obvious bias on the editorial and opinion page. Layout of articles is an important feature of newspapers that most readers aren't aware of. By strategical­ ly placing letters critical of your jour­ nalism tactics buried in the page, readers won't take the time to hunt for them. I am specifically referring to your coverage of the RHC situation. It's only obvious how you feel about the matter. Why not let us, the readers, make up our own minds. Where was your feature and four-column picture on Sue Sparks like Doug Pahl received? The only coverage Sue received was two ridiculous and un­ professional cartoons that totally misrepresented her involvement in the RHC matter. In future issues I hope you can be more journalistic in youf approach on controversial matters. Journalists have a responsibility to print both sides of an issue, not just the side the editor agrees with. Perri Bixler Meisner Hall Director appreciates internship article Editor: I particularly enjoyed the article in the May 3 issue of The Observer about Theresa Greco, who is currently work­ ing as an Air Traffic Control Co­ op/Intern in Yakima. Hers is an excellent example of the successes of the Co-op/Intern program for students. There are about 400 other similar stories each year. For example, you also had an entertaining story about a wine-tasting tour of several wineries in the Yakima Valley. If you had toured the Woodinville winery of Chateau Ste. Michelle a couple quarters ago, your tour guide would have been a CWU Co-op/Intern who was majoring in marketing. These students' placements are all quite fascinating and rewarding because of the way they tie students' academic areas directly to gratifying career opportunities — with some earn­ ing for them also. There really are a lot of opportunities available right now, as Theresa said. Things look better now than they have for several years. There are quite a few positions open right now in almost all areas, and we welcome students to con­ tact us. We are in Barge 307, telephone number 963-2404. V.

Thursday, May 10, 1984 Eilensburgi Washington Reinstated RHC reverses its decision in Doug Pahl controversy By MELISSA MBTZLBR Of The Observer By a two-thirds vote last Wednesday, the Residence Hall Council decided to reinstate Doug Pahl as its 1984-85 chairman. Pahl had, in effect, been ousted April 18 when the council retroactively inserted into the minutes of a February meeting a constitutional amendment which required that RHC officers live on campus at least two quarters before elections. He had lived on campus less than one quarter at the time of his election and to the council at the May 2 meeting in Munson Hall where it was the main order of business. After nearly 45 minutes of sometimes heated discussion, Sue Lombard representative Shane Inch moved to retain Pahl, based on a two-thirds vote* of representatives present. Inch also stipulated in his motion that whatever the outcome, it was to be the council's final decision. Before the vote was taken, those at the meeting were given a chance to question Pahl on his background and future plans for RHC. With 34 representatives present, 23 'I've got all this quarter to gain confidence.' — Doug Pahl had attended only one RHC meeting ~ the one at which he was elected. What followed was two weeks of controversy and confusion. Pahl said he still was chairman because the amendment had not gone through the-' proper channels to be adopted. The RHC, however, said he wasn't chairman because he hadn't met the new standard. Part of the mixup can be attributed to the fact the council currently is in the process of writing a new constitution, and there was confusion over whether the amendment applied to the proposed constitution or to the current one. Under the current constitution, officers must live on campus one quarter before taking office and during their terms. Pahl formally appealed the decision needed to support Pahl in order for him to be retained as chairman. But two representatives abstained, lowering the number of required "yes" votes to 21. Twenty-two voted to keep Pahl as chairman. * If fewer than two-thirds of the representatives had supported him, Pahl could have appealed the April 18 decision to the campus judicial council, which has jurisdiction over all student organizations on campus. After the meeting, Pahl said he was relieved by the council's decision. "It's nice not to have to worry about that," he said. Pahl also said he doesn't expect any problems getting support from other officers and representatives next year. "I've got all this quarter to gain confidence," he said. • y ': k?

Observer RHC RHC The method of reinstatement bothers some The Residence Hall Council has retained Doug Pahl as chairman, but some think it took the wrong route. Still others think it took the only route available. "You're focusing on entirely the wrong issue," Pat D'Amelio said at last Wednesday's RHC meeting. "You're worrying about his qualifications when you should be questioning whether your original election was valid." The council voted by a two-thirds majority to retain Pahl, who had been elected a month earlier at the first RHC meeting he ever attended. Two weeks after the election, someone pointed out that Pahl didn't meet the new eligibility requirement which had been set forth at a February meeting. The current constitution requires that the officers live on campus one quarter before taking office and during their terms. The new requirement stated that officers must have lived on campus two quarters before being elected. But when the council tried to find a record of the amendment, it couldn't. There wasn't one. The council's record-keeping problems have since been solved and minutes are read at every meeting. But that didn't help in early April, when the question over Pahl's eligibility arose. At the April 18 meeting, the RHC voted to insert the amendment into the minutes of a meeting two months pievious ~ a meeting before the election. Based on the amendment.

Nationally Smokeless Consultants help firms eliminate possible health hazard SEATTLE (UPI) — Giving up smoking is as hard for a company as it is for an in­ dividual. The difficulties of creating a smoke- free environment for workers concern­ ed about inhaling nicotine, fumes from their co-workers' cigarettes has produc­ ed a new group of experts: consultants who show firms how to quit. They are still a small fraternity, but they expect to grow as health problems to workers and the costs to businesses from smoking force more corporations to adopt smoke-free workplaces. The experts say they are needed because corporate smoking bans and limitations are fraught with pitfalls for the unwitting employer. Some -companies, noted one consul­ tant, have suffered worse morale and productivity problems from their draco- nian smoking policies than they had before taking any action at all. "You ,can get yourself into a lot of trouble by making moral judgments about smoking or by unintentionally turning one group against another," said Robert Rosner, who developed a smoke-free policy for Group Health Cooperative of Seattle, the nation's largest cooperative health maintenance organization. Rosner, who originally was the butt ot antagonism from smokers at Group Health, says corporate quitting must be planned and must involve smoking and non-smoking wprkers. Ten months of planning, discussion and meetings with worker groups went into the Group Health policy, which bans smoking in the cooperative's hospitals, clinics and offices by con­ sumers and the organization's more than 5,000 staff members. Rosner had no experience in no- smoking policies when the Seattle co-op hired him. He soon found there were few places to turn for help. "The morning after I was hired I got out of bed and started calling all around the country and found almost no one knew more about it than me. So J just had to do it myself,'Mie said. Putting the policy in place and getting it to work took more than sticking a notice in a pay envelope, he said. It took a combination of firmness and finesse. "The issue must be presented as a health and safety issue, not a moral one," Rosner said. "Smokers don't need guilt trips. Smokers, in fact, normally want to cooperate once they understand their habits are endangering the health of othersT "But you just can't suddenly expect to announce a policy and have people quit the same day." Rosner set up planning committees composed of smokers and non-smokers to decide how best to implement the policy in their areas at Group Health. Four of Group Health's 16 medical centers already- had begun voluntary no-smoking policies. Six others decided to^implement the ban earlier than re­ quired. "The key is not to make one group the enemy and give the other group the white hats," Rosner said. "I took some heat when I walked down the halls or spoke before employee groups. Now I even get a few pats on the back." Some of the pats come from ex- smokers who quit because of the policy. Rosner made speeches, had question and answer sessions and developed an audio-visual presentation to educate workers. Group Health also sponsored stop-smoking classes . "We aren't telling smolcers they have to quit. We're telling them we want our buildings to be smoke-free for the health and comfort of everyone in them," he said. "But at the same time smokers don't just stub out their cigarettes the same morning a smoking policy goes into ef­ fect. If someone did that to me, I'd be out there ripping down the no-smoking signs." Violations of Group Health's no- smoking policy could lead to termina­ tion. "But we're not out to fire anyone over this," said Rosner. More than a month after the ban went into effect, Rosner reported things had gone surprisingly well. "We do have some people sneaking cigarettes in the bathrooms and stairwells," he said. "We still have some problems." That comes with any policy change. "But the news is that we have not had the problems we anticipated. It's gone incredibly smoothly." Med student charged for beheading goose SEATTLE (UPI) — A member of the University of Washington crew team who plans to attend medical school was given a stern lecture by a Seattle judge after he was convicted of chasing a goose with a power boat and later decapitating it. Seattle Municipal Court Judge Norma Smith said she was outraged by the inci­ dent, and told James A. Dahl he should respect life. Dahl, 21, has been accepted into medical school. Dahl received a six-month deferred sentence and was fined $50 after being convicted of deliberately running down the goose with the power boat, then later decapitating the bird with a sword. Dahl, who did not contest the police report, received a deferred sentence on the misdemeanor conviction on the con­ dition he stay out of trouble during the six-month period, said assistant city at­ torney Vicki Toy ohara. The incident gained attention because it had been connected to a "Rookie Night" initiation ceremony for new crewmen. _ Dahl and Husky crew coach Kick Erickson said the decapitation occurred an hour before the initiation, and wasn't related to the ceremony. Dahl said he killed the goose to put it out of its misery, stating he used the sword because he happened to have it in his-ear. He was planning to sharpen the sword for a friend, he said. 201 East 8th a & BAKERY • Danish Ice Cream Cones and Sundaes 25c off with this coupon 21 flavors of ice cream to choose from! |X Ma* tJiili ® • » * • • • ««»«»»» T • • • • » T « •.• • • •••«•• I • • • • • « i»li VilliK- I / JO crnt WnlrtlliM O Kettle [RESTAURANT LA— Stop In Anytime!

The Second Front W-: r Incorporation BOD kicks off campus-wide petition drive this week By ALAN ANDERSON Editor of The Observer Currently, Central's associated stu­ dent body is the only one of the state- supported schools in Washington that hasn't incorporated. But a petition drive that begins today could change that. At a noon forUm in the SUB Pit Tues­ day, members of the ASC Board of Direc­ tors told students the main advantage of incorporation would be an increased revenue base for the ASC. Daren Hecker, BOD vice president and director of finance, said the ASC is so restricted by its current allocations from the services and activities (S&A) budget that, at best, it can only main­ tain current programs. Starting new ones is virtually out of the question, he said. "We can't, generate any more S&A funds, but we could generate funds through incorporation that could be us­ ed exclusively by the ASC," he said. "Any funds generated through incor­ poration could be controlled directly and solely by the Board of Directors of the corporation — the ASC BOD." Hecker pointed to Western Washington University's current move to place a lounge in the student union building. While he said there are no current plans for such an establishment at CWU, incorporation would make it — or similar student-run businesses — possi­ ble. One means for building the ASC revenue base is through donations, ac­ cording to Jeff Morris, BOD director of external affairs. He said that with a corporation, dona­ tions to the student government would become property of the students, not the state, as is currently the case. "If someone were to donate a van to us for our use, it would become property of the state of Washington," Morris told The Observer. "The ASC would not have control over it." Hecker said incorporation would also give the students a legal identity. "A corporation is an actual living, breathing thing in the eyes of business." he said. "It would be con­ trolled solely by students." The student's involvement in the cor­ poration would be electing the BOD members. There are easier routes to incorpora­ tion than a petition drive, which will re­ quire the signatures of 51 percent of the on-campus students. Originally, the BOD planned a campus-wide election on the issue. Under that structure, a simple majority of the voters turning out would h&ve been sufficient to pass the measure. However, at a meeting April 16, the board decided that given the poor tur­ nout of voters for previous ASC elec­ tions, the signatures of the majority of the students would show stronger sup­ port for the move. "We need to establish that this is the course of action that the students sup­ port," Hecker said. Petition booths are located at both Holmes and Tunstall Commons Dining Halls during lunch and dinner hours, as well as on the main floor of the SUB and the lobby of Nicholson Pavilion between 6 a.m. and 5 p.m. daily. BMP lISMa By Jeff Leak/The Observer BOD VICE PRESIDENT DAREN HECKER: "A corporation is an actual living, breathing thing in the eyes of business, it would be controlled solely by students." McDermott Senator will direct campaign toward incumbant governor By MELISSA METZLER Of The Observer State Sen. Jim McDermott, Democratic gubernatorial candidate, says Gov. John Spellman "had no record to run on" in 1980 and was elected because of his popularity. But now, he says, it's time to look back on the past four years and see if Spellman delivered everything he pro­ mised. "We've all had four years to watch closely what has been done, and to determine if it matches up to everything promised," he said. "I don't think it does." McDermott says he won't change his campaign strategy much from his first unsuccessful bid against Spellman, who officially announced his candidacy Mon­ day. The announcement came as no sur­ prise. For months, nearly everyone had assumed the incumbent would seek re­ election. "In 1980, he had no record," McDer­ mott said in Ellensburg Saturday. "This time, we'll both have to run on our records." While in Ellensburg Saturday, McDer­ mott spoke at the Third Annual Washington State History Contest. Later that day, he addressed the Yakima County Democratic Party. In an interview with The Observer, he said he will run a campaign directed against Spellman, despite some tough opposition within his own party. Piere County Executive Booth Gard­ ner was the first Democrat to announce his candidacy and has gained strong support — especially financial support. Gardner has raised eight-and-a-half timfes more money than McDermott and has more money now than McDermott and Spellman combined. He has $340,000, compared with McDecmott's $40,000. But Gardner, like Spellman four years ago, has "no record," McDermott says. "He hasn't shown us what he's all about." But McDermott is quick to point to his own record. During the recent legislative session, he sponsored bills to create a public works trust fund, to im­ plement teacher excellence plans in See McDERMOTT, page 5A. SEN.

McDermott From page 3A. RHC school districts, to create a bipartisan negotiating team to settle the com­ parable worth lawsuit, to prohibit on­ line lottery games in the state and to prohibit utility cut-offs betweeh Nov. 15 and March 15 of each year. Rep. Bob Williams, a Republican, call­ ed McDermott "probably the most effec­ tive member of the Legislature in 1984" and he has been praised in newspaper editorials throughout the state. ASC Board of Directors member Jeff Morris, former president of Central's chapter of the Washington Student Lob­ by, said McDermott has been particular­ ly effective on higher education issues. Also Saturday, McDermott blasted Spellman for supporting a timber tax rollback while opposing a tuition freeze. "The governor made a choice to give a break to big business instead of to students," he said. "I think that was the wrong choice." Some legislators have suggested using money from the higher education budget to replace the revenue lost by the timber tax rollback. He said he supports the idea of a stu­ dent on the board of trustees of each state-supported college. ".In 1958,1 ran for student body presi­ dent on a proposal to put a student on the board of trustees," McDermott said. "And I still think it's a good idea." From page 1 A. retained by the council, based on a two- thirds vote of representatives present at the May 2 meeting. It was the manner in which Pahl was ousted, then reinstated, which bothers D'Amelio. "The whole thing was a comedy of errors," he said. "It's a miracle they ended up how they did." Sue Lombard representative Shane Inch disagrees. Inch sponsored the motions both to insert the missing amendment into the minutes of a previous meeting and to require a two-thirds vote to retain Pahl. "I think the situation was handled in the best way it could have been," he said. "I think it was the best solution that could have occurred." Inch said that he thought it was important to have a "large majority" support Pahl and that by dealing with his appeal in the manner it did, the RHC took care . of the procedural questions D'Amelio raised. "Had Doug not brought that petition (appeal), then we might have had to take a new approach," he said. Inch stressed that everything the council did was legal and the actions were proper under its constitution. He also said the council did deal with the issue of the validity of the election. "That's really all we were dealing with, as far as I can see," he said, adding that by retaining Pahl, the RHC had decided that the original election was valid.

Machine reads to visually impaired students By PAM SCHWANDBR Of The Observer His name is Ray. His job is to aid the blind, visually impaired and learning disabled by reading books to them and helping them with math problems. It sounds like a job for a human, but Ray is far from living. He is the mechanical creation of Raymond Kurzweil: an optical scanner designed to read aloud most printed type­ face up to 250 words a minute. "Hello, everybody. I am the Kurzweil Reading Machine," he reads from his introduction sheet. Ray's masculine voice is produced when materials — either bound books or typed pages — are placed on a glass plate similar to the one on a copying machine. With the press of a button, a scanner — a moving short focal camera — converts the printed material into a coded electronic signal and sends it to a minicomputer within Ray. The microcomputer separates the images into letters and groups the letters into words. The words are sent to a separate microprocessor which computes the pronunciation of each word and creates a synthetic voice that is natural sounding. Sometimes Ray may mispronounce a word because he reads "logically," according to CWU Kurzweil coordinator Pat Davis, but a reader can make Ray return to the word and spell it aloud by using a 30-button keyboard. The keyboard also allows the user to change the rate, pitch and volume of Ray's voice or to make him read by letters, words or sentences. In addition, Ray can communicate with a computer so information is read orally rather than printed. Ray, originally priced at $30,000, was donated to Central's library on a grant by the Xerox Corporation and was installed fall quarter 1983. To operate Ray, students or community ijiembers take an introductory course through the library. After training, a person gets a Kurzweil certification card allowing him access to any of the machines in the United States, England, Australia or Canada. Everett Barney, a CWU junior, claims Ray and the library's Visualtek machine, a print and graphic enlarger, has helped increase his freshman grade point average of 2.5 to his current 3.16. Ray allows Barney to do his homework without relying on ,tapes or others to help him. *'It gives you access to everything in the lbrary," Barney said. "One of the big problems I've found is for professors to know this equipment is in a private area and is available for testing." Ray is located on the library's second floor behind the copy center in an enclosed glass room. Davis encourages other students like Barney to use Ray. Although the machine has helped many, Kurzweil hasn't stopped working since Ray's introduction in 1976. He has been perfecting a typewriter that takes dictation. It will be out within two years, according to the February 1984 Science Digest. But for now Ray will continue to fool people with his human qualities. Or are they really so human? "I can read X-rated books, but I don't get excited about them." ASC Incorporation Special Petition Drive Thursday, May 10- y-T The five-member Board of Directors for ASC has endorsed an amend­ ment to the ASC constitution authorizing the formation of a non-profit cor­ poration within ASC Proper.

A select ensemble of 28 singers, the chamber choir will perform a variety of works under the direction of CWU music professor Judith Burns. "Rejoice in the Lamb," a festival cantata by Benjamin Britten, will feature the choir's accompanist, Carol Cross, on the new Hertz pipe organ. "Four Pieces After the Seasons," by Ron Nelson, was described as* "instrumentally interesting" by director Burns, who is completing her doctoral dissertation on the choral music of this contemporary composer. The choir will be accompanied by a toy piano, sleigh bells and other unconventional percussion instruments. Other works on the concert program are "Ave Verum Corpus," a renaissance motet by William Byrd "Magnificat," by Leanardo Leo "Willow song," by Ralph Vaughan Williams and the finale from "The Gondoliers," by Authur Sullivan.

What's on tap at Central? 'Vitamin R,' according to poll By SCOTT ANDREWS Of The Observer "Central," I answered about one year ago when a classmate asked me where I intended to go to college in the coming fall. Immediately, the . snickers and hassling started. I- cah still hear my yearbook adviser. Miss Cooper, asking, "Why on earth are you going there?" Her voice demanded an acceptable answer. •'Parties," one of my friends volunteered. Central Washington University is a college which has progressed from being rated as one of the top 20 "party schools" in the nation by Playboy magazine a few years ago to being ranked as one of the top scholastic universities west of the Mississippi River by U.S. News & World Report last year. Yet the party reputation hangs on, at least in some areas. What's the case today? Central's bad academic reputation has been shattered, but what about the drinking one? A survey recently cqnducted by The Observer indicated far less alcohol consumption than one might expect at a school which was topped by only a few nationwide in the Playboy survey. According to many CWU students, excessive drinking isn't a highly- popular, often-performed event. Although some confessed to drinking up to 18 drinks per sitting on an average of twice a week, most interviewed had an average intake of three to four drinks at one time. While the freshmen and sophomore crowd seemed to fit the heavy drinking, "get wasted" attitude, the majority of respondents of every other class standing said they drink socially and rarely get drunk. "I do it to relax, not to get 'smashed,' " said Valerie Stamps. Most upperclassmen agreed. Though more than 50 percent of freshmen men surveyed drank anywhere from eight to an astounding 18 drinks, other brackets claimed far less intake levels. Freshmen women and sophomores seemed to hover around an average five drinks per occurrence. A steady decrease continued toward seniors, particularly senior women. On the average, senior women, indicated they drink two to three times . a month, consuming two or three drinks at each sitting. None of the 32 students polled was a non-drinker. Why does one start to drink? Approximately 33 percent admitted they began due to peer pressure. - "If you drink you get more respect and more friends," said Garth Nestavel, a freshman. "I think that's why most people start." The other two-thirds, however, mainly noted a natural curiosity in discovering the effects of alcohol as the major reason. After the curiosity is satisfied, what . is the purpose of continuing to drink? By J«ff Leak/The Obeerv# TONIGHT IS KINDA SPECIAL' — reasons. Once again following the stereotype, many younger males simply said their main reason was "to get drunk." Many also said that boredom and a lack of other activity play a large part in their decision to "tip the bottle." Chuck Haddock's statement, "There's nothing better to do," adequately summarized the feelings of 15 percent of the respondents. All who said that were either freshmen or sophomores. Central students consume a variety of alcoholic beverages for a variety of The junior/senior crowd, on the other hand, said they drink because alcohol promotes "togetherness" among friends and provides a social outlet. Many simply stated that drinking is "the thing to do" when getting together with friends. "."Drinking gets people together and makes it easier to communicate," said John Bryant, a Junior from Carmody- Munro. Moreover, two reasons — relief of pressure and a good taste — were widely distributed among all age groups and both sexes, comprising one-third of the total answer. Some had unique replies, such as Frank O'Brien's, "I drink to replenish my carbohydrates from running. ' Many men said they drink to relieve school pressure, while most women said they like the taste of liquor. Another trend was revealed during the survey: women are much more See ALCOHOL, page 4B.
Fashion major hopes for the big time in the 'Big Apple' By KELLY MILLER Of The Observer The letter said that his interview appointment was scheduled for March 8 at 10:30 a.m. in room C-610. In one week he arrived at La Guardia Airport in New York. After circling the airport for one-and- a-half hours, stepping off into heavy rain and taking a bus which broke down on the way into the city, he was in the "Big Apple." Profile The following day, Tuesday, March 6, he had an orientation of the school. Two days later was the appointed interview Confident, yet at the same time scared of rejection, Donald' Goodale walked into his admissions interview at. the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) ready to show them his stuff. * The interview was successful for Goodale, who will attend the acclaimed institution next fall. Goodale, a CWU sophomore, is currently in the fashion merchandising and construction and design programs here at Central. He has been in the programs since he began at Central in the fall of 1982. He first became interested in fashion in^high school. "It's very expressive," he said. "It's a way to stick out in an appealing way." When he graduated from. Kent- Meridian High School in Kent in 1982, he decided to come to Central because of its fashion program, he said. He also looked into the program at Highline Community College, but chose Central because it is a four-year school. Back then, he had no idea of attending FIT, he said. Goodale is presently the secretary of Central's Fashion Merchandising Student Association (FMSA). He said his club involvment has given him good exposure to the fashion industry. Goodale is also a member in Central's Douglas Honors College. "Exposure to other options in the whole fashion industry" has been his highlight at Central, Goodale said. He decided to transfer to a fashion institute because he "wasn't satisfied with Central and the social intercourse here," he said. He said that Ellensburg is small and to get as far as he wants to in fashion, he needs more exposure. He looked^into several other institutes before deciding on FIT. Among the others were: Fashion fW MHIMMI ? 4. ' WS-: :. § By Randy Anderson/The Observer CREATIVE — Donald Goodale expresses his creativity through pattern drafting. Institute of Design and Merchandising, Los Angeles Bassist School of Fashion, Portland Parson's School of Design, New York City and Los Angeles Pratt Institute, New York City and Rhode Island School of Design, Providence. "I dug and dug and dug," said Goodale.. He chose FIT because everyone talked of it. His adviser and others encouraged him to apply there. k After deciding on FIT, he began with the preliminaries. He sent an application in January to the State University of New York, of which FIT is a part. He also sent an in-depth essay to FIT. The essay, which Was about him, his . goals, why he had those goals and his achievements, took him three weeks to. complete. * "In writing you have to show in this essay all your energy and enthusiasm," said Goodale. "You are selling yourself on paper." Along with the essay he sent three letters of recommendation. On Feb. 27, less than one month later, he heard from the admissions office at FIT. The letter told him when and where his interview was. "You don't mess with them," he said. "You get there when you're scheduled." " -- C w See GOODALE, page 5B.

Winners? Jazz band possible victim of 'polities' By KELLY MILLER Of The Observer Politics seems to weave its web into many activities in our daily lives. Situations which, on the surface don't tend to warrant such practices, often receive an uninvited visit from political activities. Such political practices seemed to have interferred with the Central jazz band's chances at a first place trophy at the Pacific Coast Collegiate Jazz Festival in Berkeley, California last month, according to Director John Moawad. In the four-year college division. Central's jazz band took second behind Cal- State University, Northridge of Los Angeles. Many band members share Moawad's sentiments, even though the vocal jazz ensemble and the jazz band, both under Moawad's direction, collectively brought home three of the five trophies awarded to performing groups. Ken McCormick, trombone, said, "It was a real political situation." Mark Adamo, lead trombone, agreed and pointed out that the competition judges "were under the instruction of California jazz judges." Bruce Babad, lead alto saxophone, said, "It's irritating to get second place. I'm still getting mad. It was a highly political decision. Four hundred people booed when Northridge won." CWU's vocal jazz ensemble took first in its division. The group also received the Sweepstake award, given to the best overall performing group — the group that had the "greatest impact (on the crowd) over anyone there," Moawad said. The jazz band was also runner-up for the Grand Champion award, once again to Northridge. "Fabulous," said Moawad, regarding the performances of the choir and band. "They've never sounded better." Central's choir and band were the only two groups, out of'more than 100, to bring the audience to their feet, according to Moawad. McCormick said, "We wailed. The crowd was on their feet before our last note. That was the best I've ever felt about playing." Adamo said, "It was a musical climax. We won for ourselves." Moawad said there were "very strange happenings down there," which may have affected the outcome of the competition. First of all, none of the solo trophies were awarded. They were simply left sitting on the table. Secondly, none of the final performances were taped, so there is no' recording to hear. Also, no rating sheets were issued to the performing groups. Perhaps the strangest happening occurred during the sightreading competition process. According to Moawad, there are three judges for each performance. Each judge rates the group on a 100-point scale. Each band then goes on to a sightreading competition. One judge issues up to 60 points in this event. After each group has performed, the score is posted. Moawad said this usually takes approximately 30 minutes. This time, Moawad said, it took close to five hours for them to post Central's score. Since Central's was the only score not registered, Terry Hill, a student teaching assistant, went to see what the delay was. Hill was "less than forcefully removed," Moawad said. He said he had a "gut feeling" that the break in the pattern of the sightreading scoring process was deliberate, and that Central had "either beat or tied Northridge, so they weren't going to give it to us. Our choir just blew them away. "CWU won the battle but lost the war," said Moawad, meaning that we won in the minds of the audience, but lost first place. According to Moawad, Northridge was a clean, precise and disciplined band, but lacked soul and personality. The band didn't "turn on" the crowd but received a "polite" applause, he said. Moawad said unlike Northridge, Central is a swing band. "It's like comparing apples and oranges," he said. "What they did, they did well. What we did, we did well." According to several band members, the audience was so sure that the CWU jazz band had won that many of them left before the announcement. When Northridge was announced the winner, the audience which remained booed. The choir and band had just completed a four-day high school tour before competing in Berkeley. Moawad said the tour did not physically affect the band's playing. If anything, he said the tour helped both groups, especially the choir. Moawad said the tour made the choir "an exciting, viable entity. With each performance they became a tighter and more cohesive group." "We're into jazz — not just singing," said Moawad. He said that California groups, in general, haven't conceptually found vocal jazz. Moawad quoted one judge as saying, "CWU gave the audience a vocal jazz clinic." Moawad said that both the choir and the band strive for communication, integrity, humor and honesty in their performances. Central's jazz students think they were victims of 'politics.'

Country-Western star Johnny Cash to appear at Kittitas County Fair This year for the first time, the Kittitas County Fair and Ellensburg Rodeo weekend will feature a special concert performance by a nationally- known entertainer. Johnny Cash, a country-western singer, composer and actor, will play the 9 p.m. Friday night concert in the rodeo arena. The fair and rodeo are Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Labor Day each / year. This will be the first time the arena has been used for such a special performance. Ihe junior rodeo that usually is -conducted on that fair-rodeo Friday night will be advanced to August 17, two weeks before the rodeo opens. The decision to bring Cash to Ellensburg was the work of the county fair board and a local entertainment promotion firm, C & J Professional Resources, which is operated by Alcohol Central's ASC director, John Drinkwater. Drinkwate'r said he took the Cash concert because most of the promotion will be done during summer break and thus won't interfere with his CWU job. "We have sold more than 500 tickets so far," Karen Startt of the fair office said. "There will be 6,000 tickets available. We haven't promoted it too heavily yet but the ticket sales so far look promising." The Cash concert will include a number of the songs for which he has become internationally recognized: "Ring of Fire," "A Boy Named Sue," "Folsom Prison Blues" and "I Walk the Line." Tickets for the Cash concert — priced at $10, $11 and $12.50 — are on sale now at the Ellensburg Rodeo Office between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. Monday through Friday. They will soon be offered for sale through a number of other outliets. From page IB. likely to drink distilled spirits by choice than beer or wine. Most stressed, however, as Laura, a junior from Meisner did, that they preferred it (liquor) in mixed drinks. Of the 15 women surveyed, nine chose the hard liquors, usually rums and vodkas, as their first choice. Four of the other six chose wine, and they were infrequent alcohol consumers. Popular wines proved to be red Cella or most any white wine. Men, on the other hand, overwhelmingly were beer drinkers. Eleven of the 17 interviewed chose beer as their favorite alcoholic beverage. Favorite brands included nearly everything from Killian's to Budweiser to Polanar. Six of the seven remaining enjoyed hard liquor — usually the whiskies — while only one claimed wine as his favorite drink. However, when asked what kind of alcohol was most often purchased here in Ellensburg, the runaway choice was beer — Rainier Beer. Twenty of the 32 polled said they usually bought "Vitamin R," while six of the 12 remaining frequently purchased Budweiser. Asked why they bought Rainier, most students said it was because of economic reasons. "It's less expensive than the others," O'Brien said. Most also said that its taste is "OK" for the price. A reliable poll? According to the liquor distributors questioned, the results parallel the Ellensburg buying habits. Mark Furnish, an Oak Rail Tavern employee, said that draft beer is the most popular drink among the college crowd. He also said that the average spent per person is $5 or less. Zandra Harrison of the Tav said Rainier was definitely the most popular among the 21 to 25 age group and that three drinks was the average comsumed. "If they get too loose, I won't let them have anymore," she said. A state liquor store employee said its biggest sellers are the vodkas and then the Canadian whiskies, both in the fifth size. Retail grocers also backed the findings. Bryan Nielsen, Albertson's manager, said Rainier is the overall biggest seller, while a 7-11 employee also said Rainier is the winner in sales, especially when -no specials from other brands are on. Both also said the half case is the most popular purchase. "Students are price conscious," Nielsen said. A senior summarized the findings when she said, "Most people here at Central are good about not pressuring others to drink. I've gone to parties before, not feeling like I wanted to drink, and no one really pushed me to do it. A person pressures himself to go along." So, another possible shattered reputation. Apparently, the old normal school is more conservative, responsible and normal than many believe.

ooouaie From page 2B. With one week to prepare for the interview, he scheduled his flight, planned his wardrobe and took care of school arrangements here at Central. He was rushed but said that it was better than sitting and waiting. He arrived in New York City on March 5. March 6 was an orientation to FIT. The orientation consisted of a slide presentation on each of the 18 majors offered at FIT, the city and the benefits and demands of the school. Next was v a question and answer session which was followed by a self- guided tour of the school. According to Goodale, the school occupies one city block. It has five buildings ranging in height from nine to 11 floors. The school has approximately 4,000 students. On Thursday, March 8, he went to his interview. He felt confident because "that's what I've seen for so long — me in New York," he said. He said he feels that you have to have faith in yourself before others can. While waiting for the actual interviews, a total of three, he had to fill out several forms, fill in Identification sheets and do three spur-of-the-moment design drawings. "The whole thing was very deinanding," he said. The first interview was on creativity, the second was on "why you want to attend FIT" and the third was on business knowledge. The third interview was conducted by Jack Hyde, who is very reputable in the fashion Industry, according to Goodale. After completing the final interview, Hyde told Goodale to call him in two weeks to speed up the process. Coming from Seattle, Goodale was the applicant coming the longest distance. "I left there drained," he said. The whole process lasted three hours. On March 22, he called Hyde. Yes, he'd been accepted. Two weeks later admission details and other information began coming In the mail. Goodale plans to leave from Seattle on August 8 and take the train across Canada and down through Upstate New York, arriving in New York City on August 15. New student orientation is August 20 and classes are scheduled to begin August 26, he said. Goodale plans to reside with a friend in Brooklyn. Since FIT is a public institution, Goodale will have to pay out-of-state tuition. He has already applied for financial aid and feels confident he'll receive it. At FIT, Goodale plans to obtain a degree in men's wear design and marketing. After graduating, he hopes to stay in New York or somewhere back East. He said he's not "dead set on men's wear. You can't close off any options." Therefore, women's wear design is a possible alternative for him. "My ultimate goal is to be heavily involved with men's wear design in some way and to go where it leads me," he said. Having his own line is another goal. Before leaving Central this spring. Goodale will be involved in a fashion show put on by upper level construction and design students and the FMSA. The show will feature original as well as commercial designs. Goodale's work will be modeled during the show, which is scheduled for May 31 in the SUB pit at noon. Hard work pays off for Orchesis dancers By KATIE ROGERS Of The Observer " A group of exhausted dancers posed arm-in-arm in a McConnell Auditorium dressing room for a photo destined to be pasted in a scrapbook. The Orchesis Performing Dancers had plenty to smile about last Saturday night after the final performance of their annual spring concert. The concert represented six months of hard work by 50 dedicated dancers to present 16~original and two repertory works to responsive and appreciative audiences. Saturday night drew approximately 400 people — the largest and most boisterous crowd of the three-night run. The two-hour performance opened with a high-energy jazz dance choreographed by Junior Jennifer Minnich to the song "Don't Go" by Yaz. Dressed in maroon and black, Julie Burke, Malia Hee, Heather MacDermott and Minnich set the pace for an energetic, lively evening of jazz, modern and ballet dances. Solo performances by Cecelia Cross- Wenger, Anna Maccarrone, Minnich and special guest JoAnn Dukes, a former Orchesis member and teacher in the Tri- Cities, were excellent. Each dance, choreographed by its respective dancer, was performed with confidence and emotion. "Expansion," a lively, fun-filled dance backed up by the impressive CWU Gospel Choir, had the audience clapping along while Corliss Esterly-Albright, Christie Coffing, Beverly Shotts- Ombrek, Julie Prather and Katy Reeves, dressed in plaid skirts and white bobby socks, danced enthusiastically. All the glamour and glitter of a Broadway show was shining when "Broadway Encore II," choreographed by Cross-Wenger, had dancers in silver tuxedos strutting in the Chorus Line tradition, tipping their top hats to the audience. The final dance of the evening, "Fiesta Commigo," choreographed by Maccarrone, was a bright, colorful performance with a Mexican theme. Confetti filled the air as the dancers, obviously having a great time, danced to the words, "We're gonna have a party — all night long." Lana Jo Sharpe, the show's producer and manager of Orchesis. said that the dancers, who usually practice two to three hours a day. increased their practice time to five hours a day the past two weeks. All the hard work has paid off and the Orchesis Performing Dancers are proudly smiling — and they should be. At the End of the Rainbow.

60 seconds: What's the point? By KIM SlOKES Of The Observer Get a Job In 60 Seconds, by Steve Kravette, is a step-by-step account designed to help you get the job you want. I was prepared to like this book. From my, initial perusal of the book, it sounded like Kravette knew what he was talking about. There was just one slight problem. This guy kept using such outrageous examples that I got sidetracked from the purpose of the book. For instance, when talking about a list you might want to make for reference concerning what you wouldn't want them to find out about you, Kravette uses these examples: "Your fear of elevators or snakes or intimacy your nosepicking your jailbird father the time you stole something from the five and ten or from your last employer." OK, so maybe that's not so bad — I was Just priming you for his next eloquent example. While still talking about these good and bad lists, Kravette makes this oh- so-wonderful statement, "For instance, I personally would find it a lot more interesting to hear about the time you wanted to make love with your cat than to hear abdut your fourth-grade penmanship award. But that's not the point." What is the point? That he's some kind of pervert or any other social-deviant type? I really don't think I would be inclined to give a job to someone prone to such bizarre habits. Now here's his advice to those of us who may not be Christie Brinkley look alikes: "You might say (to the interviewer) something like, 'I've got to tell you this. I may not be the best-looking person in the world. Some people even think I'm sort of ugly. But, boy, am I ever willing to work to do a great job here. You can count on me for that.' Do you know what honesty like that gets you? It gets you hired." You know what I think honesty like that gets you? It gets the interviewer to agree with you! "Gee, she's right," he might think to himself, "she is ugly. I don't want a dog like that working for this company." The author also offers some sterling advice about lying to get the job. "Lying creates an atmosphere of furtiveness, of withholding, of hiding the lie, and then lying even more to hide the lie about the lie, and lying still more to hide the lie about the lie about the lie." Well, he sure covered that topic thoroughly, didn't he? The moral of Get a Job In 60 Seconds is that once you get to the interview, you should get or lose the job within one minute. Actually, the majority of the book centers on the time spent and the butt busting it takes getting you to that all- important interview. This is an inappropriate title for an inappropriate book, and I'm giving it a thumbs down. Parents Weekend • , : . 'V. . V-. v • • • • y .*• %-.'•••- v ' - , "v: .' . • A Top-Notch Performance . • .

I'm not going to run for I'm going to win, but I've got a shot and second or third — I'm going for first." By BRENDA BERUBE Of The Observer "Do what you enjoy," . is the philosophy of Central distance runner Paul Harshman. And considering what he's accomplished this season, he couldn't enjoy running any more than he is now. Setting school records, preparing for nationals and being No. 1 in the country is just the beginning for the talented track star. Harshman has qualified for nationals in two events and will probably run them both at the NAIA national meet in Charleston W.Va. His time of 14:20.0 in the 5,000 meters and his record time of 29:30.76 in the 10,000 will be times to beat for other runners at nationals. Harshman currently is the No. 1 runner in the nation in the 10,000 meters and third in the 5,000. "I'm running pretty well right now," he said. "I figure I have as good a shot as anybody to win. I've only lost to one guy this season. "I'jn not saying I'm going to win, but I've got a shot and I'm going for it," he added. "I'm not going to run for second or third — I'm going for first. I'll hang back and kick past them in the end." Nationals are not new for Harshman. •He's been there the past four years for cross country and once for track. And he has come away with top placings. His marks in nationals irk cross / country over the past years include a 99th placing in 1980, a 42nd in 1981 and a 58th in 1982. In track he "was 14th in the national NAIA meet in the 10,000 meters in 1982 and third in District 1 that year in the 5,000 meters. All of his time and training has /paid off for Harshman, who has set two school records this year. He broke the 10,000 meter record two weekends ago at the University of Washington with a time of 29:41.5 and the 3,000-meter record earlier in the year with a clocking of 8:18.4. "My biggest goal of the year was breaking that record," he said his 29:46.5 clocking in the 10,000 meters which broke the record previously held by Phil Phimister in 1981. Harshman has placed himself on a strict training program since he redshirted last year. He formulated the program, which includes running 85 to 100 miles a week and swimming in the pool twice a week. "I read a lot of running books the year I redshirted and formulated my own training program," Harshman said. "1 ran 85 to 100 miles a week and did some training in Canada. "You don't get there by inspiration, but by hard work," he added. Harshman's program was so successful that he's been helping with the training program for the rest of See HARSHMAN, page 10B. Olin in tough company against District 1 foes By KEVIN ROEN Of The Observer Being one of the best javelin throwers in the Northwest apparently means being one of the best in the nation. And one of the best in'both categories is right here at Central. .She is Donna Olin, who hails from the v small peninsula community of Port Townsend. A sophomore, she has cleared the national standard of 130 feet four times this season, including three times in one meet. Olin is currently rated as the ninth best Javelin thrower in the nation. Incredibly, the top three throwers in the nation all compete in District 1, and three others in the top ten compete in District 2 in Oregon. Including Olin, that means seven of the top nine are from the two districts. However, just because Olin has topped the national standard doesn't guarantee her a trip to nationals May 124-26 at Charleston W.Va. Central's policy has always been to only send athletes to national competition that have a definite chance at earning Ail- American honors (top six). But Olin said she has been told it is "99.9 percent sure" that she'll get to go this year. Last year Olin qualified, but did not make the trip to nationals under the school policy. Olin's performance this season has not surprised the people in CWU's track program, including head coach Tim Clark. "She came in with the idea that she was going to get to nationals," Clark said. "To get there "you have to work your tail off, and Donna has." Last year, with the national standard at 125 feet, Olin threw the javelin a season-high 129-5. This year she has thrown it as far as 137-8 feet. Olin has a simple explanation for her improvement. "Things are just starting to click," she said. Actually there is more to it than that. For example, a great deal of hard work in the weight room under the watchful eye of coach Clark. "She came in on a regular basis at 7 in the morning," Clark said. "It has helped Donna a lot. She's made all sorts of progress, and she's still lifting." Olin said she could see the correlation between the weights and the javelin. "After I dropped off the weights for a while, and got my strength back, my distance really went up," she said. Olin got started on the javelin via the shot put. She was exclusively a shot putter her freshman year at Port Townsend High School. In her spare practice time she would toss the javelin.

Beardsley finally granted retirement By DAVE COOK Of The Observer It wasn't exactly what he had in mind, but 59-year-old Eric Beardsley is more than happy with his new status on Central's athletic coaching staff. Beardsley, CWU's only wrestling coach in the 25-year history.of the sport here, has finally been granted the retirement from coaching that he's sought since the end of last season. Sort of. at least. Beardsley's head coaching job has been filled by 30-year-old-Scott Ricardo. buv Beardsley will remain as the team's assistant mat coach. And while Ricardo is still coaching football next fall, Beardsley will be in charge until the end of the football season. "I was going to help with the program anyway," said Beardsley following the annoucement made by Central Athletic Director Gary Frederick last Friday. "I didn't want to divorce myself completely. If I can help Ricardo, I want to help. "He's going to be really wrapped up with football," Beardsley said of Central football's offensive coordinator. "That's a time when he's not going to have a whole lot of time to be with the kids. I'll be happy to help out." Beardsley's retirement from the head coaching Job comes nearly three months after he unofficially announced his retirement from coaching at the end of the wrestling season. The availability of Ricardo was a chief reason for his decision to step down. "This was a pretty well-planned situation," Beardsley said. "It wasn't something that I had decided in a short period of time. "We needed a younger guy in there who has a lot of energy. I'm sure he's going to make some changes. And he probably has some ideas that will benefit the program. Hopefully that's what will happen." Recruiting and traveling are two things Beardsley is most happy to have off his back.

Part Two Big-league ballfield top priority of Ehler (Editor's note: This ts the second in a three-part series on Central baseball coach Dale Ehler. Thts week's article looks into what he has done for Central's program and some of the problems he has faced as a "new kid on the block." Next week's conclusion will provide insights into his future at Central, as well as outside opinions of Ehler. By DAVE COOK Of The Observer Central baseball coach Dale Ehler insists that all he's done to improve CWU's baseball field this year is put the finishing touches on an otherwise completed job. But seldom do finishing touches take as many hours of time and grueling physical labor as this project did. When Ehler first came to Central last summer as the new baseball coach, upgrading of the playing field was one of his first objectives. It took time and labor to do it. but today Central has one of the best college baseball fields in the state. Last year — because of the condition the field was in — no games were played on CWU's field. This year all of Central's home games have been played there: In addition, Ellensburg High School has rented the field and the Mid-Valley AA League has approved the ballpark as a playoff location. "The game can't be played on a lousy ballfield," Ehler said. "We have to provide our players with a top-notch facility." Former coach Mike Dunbar shares in the same philosophy. He started the project by replacing the grass with new sod, fencing the field and installing a scoreboard. That's when Ehler took over. "He's done a lot to improve the facility," Ehler said of Dunbar. "He started it and we finished it up." Last fall the work began when Ehler and his players sharpened their gardening skills. The group made cutouts for the bases, edged along the fence, built bullpens and constructed a pitching mound. Then they filled in the cutouts with dirt and crushed red brick to give the field a big-league appearance. Ehler gives most of the credit to the players, as he realizes he couldn't have done it himself. He also said he thinks they benefit the most from the project. "Players who are willing to spend more time working on their own facility have a tendency to fall back on the old philosophy that people tend to support what they create themselves," Ehler explained. "If they take a part in building the facility, they also take pride in the way they play on it." Later in the season Ehler embarked upon a project that didn't cost the school a cent, but helps the team immensely. He spearheaded the consruction of three batting cages and two half-cages for the team to use. The $3,000-plus project was funded through Stottlemyre's Baseball Camp which uses Central's facilities during the summer. The camp provided the money the team provided the manpower. The work on the field has been Ehler's main objective for Central's program this year. His other contributions are currently in the planning stage. "Of course what .we're mostly doing Central athletic trainer chosen for tournament wzm'Mm mm. my/. WmM wmm GARY SMITH Gary Smith, Central's athletic director since 1968, has been chosen to be the head trainer for the NAIA College Baseball World Series May 28-June 2 in Lewiston, Idaho. Smith downplayed his selection somewhat, claiming the importance of his selection was that a trainer of an NAIA school was selected. He said in the past, trainers from larger NCAA schools were given the honor. "We've been trying to get NAIA- certified trainers to be trainers at NAIA national events for some time," Smith said. "There wasn't a big, long selection process. They try to select trainers from areas where the event is held, obviously to hold down expenses." Smith will be assisted by Steve Bellande of Western Washington University and Jerry Krummel of Lewis and Clark College in Portland. Bellande is a graduate of Ellensjtmrg High School and CWU, Smith is vice president of the NA,tA Athletic Trainers Association. Next year he will be president of the organization. /He graduated from Northern Michigan University in 1964 and earned his master's degree from Indiana University in 1965.

We have to facility." • } right now is planning," Ehler said. "A lot of people look at a project and let it stymie them from the beginning because they think it looks a little expensive. "I believe you attack projects with a five-year plan. So instead of going five years with no improvements, you have something accomplished in that time. You Just keep chipping away at it and in time it will be finished." Ehler hasn't had any major problems with his field renovation, except perhaps the abscence of bleachers. Last fall the stands behind home plate were removed because they were deemed unsafe. Other problems have cropped up over the course of the season — both on the field and off. Off the field, recruiting has been one of Ehler's biggest headaches. As new man on the block, there were a lot of things he didn't know. "Without me knowing exactly who we had coming back, it was difficult to recruit and make promises I couldn't keep," he explained. "I hated to recruit a lot of people last year without assuring them that they'd be playing. "It's a whole new realm with recruiting. It's a selling process and you have to be knowledgeable about what you're selling," he said. "Things like eligibility rules, financial aid, school policies, academic programs, costs and housing are all areas that a coach needs to be very knowledgeable about." The result was a small group of Ehler recruits playing for the 'Cats this season. He gives Dunbar much of the credit for the team's success this year. "I was really fortunate that we have a great nucleus of kids back from last year," Ehler said. "A lot of the credit goes to coach Dunbar for getting players of the caliber that we have." Because Ehler still is not assured of a teaching job for next year and thus may not return to coach next season, he sees problems in recruiting for 1985. But on the chance that he will be back, he has started light recruiting. "Even though there's a chance: I won't be back, I have an obligation to the program to at least get a start. But the heavy recruiting would come after a decision is made." Budget problems are also evident this year, Ehler said. "Budgets have stayed about the same but inflation has gone up," he explained, adding that the situation was virtually the same at Davis High School where he coached for 11 years before coming to Central. "Schools that have had pretty good progams in the past haven't had that supplemental increase to make up for the rise in inflation." Making up for that increase through fund raising is one of Ehler's plans. But he sees problems in that as well. "It's another distraction from the field," he said. "The players are trying to play baseball and they're trying to go to school, yet they're also trying to make money for the program. That's very difficult." On the field, Ehler and his team faced severe problems earlier this season. The 'Cats struggled early with a 2-16 record, although most of the losses were to NCAA schools. The low point of the season appeared to come during a 16-2 loss to NAIA power Lewis-Clark State College. That night a disappointed Ehler hardly slept, wondering what was wrong with his team. "At that point in the season I didn't know if the early losses were going to have a negative or positive effect on the season. That was the first time that I thought they had just given up on themselves and me. I guess I was questioning our team's character." But Central quickly turned things around, defeated the same L-C State team exactly a week later. Since then Central has won consistently and earned a spot in this weekend's NAIA District 1 playoffs. "It's great to see a group of players struggling early turn it around like they have," Ehler said. "They've overcome a lot of adversity. "And they've been playing with quite a bit of pride in themselves," he added. . "When you get pounded pretty good you seem to have trouble getting back on' your feet. It didn't seem to bother this team. I think that has helped u& improve. ' "I guess every time we score a run or win a ball game or watch somebody improve it makes it all worth while. The problems cton't seem to bother as much.'' i Thursday, May 10, 1984 The Observer — 9B
Alumni swimmers at CWU this weekend By DAVE COOK Of The Observer Nearly 200 former and present Central swimmers will help celebrate 25 years of CWU swimming when they gather Friday for the first Alum­ ni Weekend here on campus. Central swimming coach Bob Gregson said the school has had alumni swim meets in the past, but never a reunion. "When I go to swim meets I'll see some of my former swimmers," Cen­ tral swimming coach Bob Gregson said. "They ask me when we're hav­ ing a reunion and I'll say 'this year' but never do it. We just decided to do it this year." Originally the reunion wasn't going to be such a big affair, but Gregson said response to the idea has been great. "I don't know what it is, but ex- students always want to come back to the campus," he said. "Just a chance to come back is the biggest reason for the swimmers returning. We've had such good response that we've added a few things." The fact that the reunion falls on the swim team's 25th anniversary comes as sheer coincidence, Gregson said. "It wasn't planned that way," he said. "We just looked back and found that it was 25 years." The reunion is being organized by this year's swim team. Gregson and John Sayre, a member of this year's national championship men's team, have done much of the work. The reunion will kickoff Friday with registration and a casual get- together in the Mary Grupe Center. A buffet dinner and dance at the Thunderbird Inn highlight Saturday's activities. Also planned is a river float Satur­ day afternoon. Harshman Central's distance runners. "He has really affected the runners here at Central that he's been in contact with," a teammate said. Harshman says men's track coach Spike Arlt has been a major factor in his success. "Spike is really good about training. He's given me a lot of leeway and is good about getting us to the bigger meets. "Travel is limited because of the small track funds. There's a lack of emphasis on the minor sports programs here at Central, but Spike does a good job of getting us to the bigger events," Harshman said. "I think Spike is the greatest. He's so understanding and cool. I've enjoyed all the time I've spent running for him," Harshman said. Harshman started his running career in high school. He had been a football player, but moved on to track after an injury forced him to quit playing football. Cross country running came as a natural extension of track, he said. Originally a high jumper and sprinter in From page 7B. track, Harshman came across distance racing pretty much by accident. "I ran the mile in a junior varsity meet one day just for fun and won," he said. "That led me to think about running distance." Harshman, a graduate of Nathan Hale High School in Seattle, had offers from several community colleges and Whitman, but Central's music program led him to Ellensburg. What does the future hold for the track sensation? A music education major, Harshman plans on teaching in the Seattle area after graduation this year. But he says running will still be a big aspect of his life, but not a life or death situation. "I'd like to make the Olympic trials," Harshman said. "And keep running. There's money to be made at it. I've lined up some shoe sponsors and I'm looking into some clubs." He says the 1984 Olympics are definitely out except for the trials but, "the '88 Olympics are in the back of my mind." Olin From page 7B. .meet, Olin stepped in and threw 96 feet. So long shot put. At Central, one thing both Olin and Clark concentrate on to measure improvement is setting goals. "We set some goals for her this season." Clark said, "So far she has met every one." One of goals for Olin was to surpass the 130 foot mark with her throws. That goal was met early in the season, and became obsolete. The new goal is 140 feet. "If I can Increase ten feet every year, then I can hit 140 this year, 150 as a junior and 160 as a senior." Olin said. The 160-foot mark is a magical one since it is the school record plus 11 inches. The record is currently held by Lorna Martinson, a 1983 Central graduate who is now pursuing a spot on the U.S. Olympic team. When Olin was a freshman, the senior Martinson became somewhat of her personal javelin idol. "I really envied her," Olin said of the Olympic hopeful. "I looked up to her a lot. "She helped me tremendously. She showed me my mistakes and helped me with what I was doing wrong. She helped me get my form down. She showed me different types of exercises I could do to improve my throwing. "She was a big help. A big asset to the team." First-year coach Clark did not have a chance to coach Martinson, but he can see the effect she has had on Olin. "Whatever Lorna did I'm sure helped Donna." Clark said. "When you have somebody like Lorna around it helps everybody. Lorna is just that type of person. I'm sure she had some influence." So when Olin is on her way back to Charleston. W.Va., for the national meet, she will have, among other things. Lorna Martinson and a lot of hard work and dedication to thank for it. "I didn't think I'd get to go," she said. "It still hasn't sunk in." ill r ' • - v . : V V.:V-"' " ' •' THE AVENUE TO AN EXCITIN6 CAREER STARTS HERE!

Central hosts District 1 meet Central's men's and women's track team will host the 1984 NAIA District 1 meet Friday and Saturday at Tomlinson Field. Competition in the two-day team scoring extravaganza begins Friday and Saturday at 11 a.m. with field events starting at 1:30 p.m. Saturday. Western Washington University is the favorite to defend both its men's and women's district titles. Two events — the marathon and the heptathlon/decathlon — have already been run this spring. Western is leading both the men and women's standings, but Central is at home for this weekend's meet. "We have 18 out of our 22 girls competing this weekend," head women's coach Tim Clark said. "Plus we have the home track advantage." Men's coach Spike Arlt also is convinced that the home track and the weather will make a difference. "We're playing catch-up already," he said. "But if the wind blows we'll be tough. "We've learned to adjust to the wind here, whereas the other teams haven't. We also hope to haye the home crowd." Carol Christensen, the only returning champion for Central's women, is one of the favorites and will be looking to better her time in the 10,000-meter run. * Lona Joslin, Jackie Conn, and Julia Criffith are first, third and fourth respectively in District 1 in the shot put going into the district meet this weekend^ " . Clark said he expects all of them to place and raise Central's point total. The women have an average of three participants in each event. Long jump, shot put, and javelin will be some of the stronger events for the 'Cats, Clark said. Joslin, Katie Crowell, and Qina Baccetti, will be long jumping for Central. All three are in the top ten in the district entering the district meet. Joslin will not be-competing in all of the six events she qualified for because she will be competing tn the heptathlon at the national NAIA meet May 24,and 25 in Charleston, W. Va. Donna Olin is a strong contender to place in the javelin. Her throw of 137-8 places her fourth in the district. Paul Harshman will lead things off for the men. The top 5,000-meter runner in the district said he will pace himself for the event. "He also has the No. 1 district 10,00 meters time, but will not compete i that event so he can rest for the national meet. Rick McElwee, No. 1 in the discus in the district, is 13V6 feet ahead of the nearest contender. Central's Jumpers are expected to be give a good showing this weekend. Tom Crowell, the No. 2 long jumper in the district, will compete for a top spot along with teammate Pierre Crockrell, who holds a No. 2 notch in the triple jump. Crockrell is also 5th nationally in the triple jump. Heaving the hamnjer for Central will be Dave Barta, the district's No. 3 man. Barta was noted as a point scorer by Arlt, along with Greg Hinrichsen in the 800 meters. One of the major factors that will be to Western's advantage is the 10,000-meter walk, an event many schools do not have a competitor in. Although Western seems to be favored, each of CWU's coaches is optimistic about his team's performance. * tPllP* IMmmm m&m IB pBpm SAFE? — Gentral baseball player Blake Johnson hopes to lead the Wildcats to a district championship this weekend. "Western has the depth and point advantage already, but Simon Fraser is the team to beat, if they bring everyone," Arlt said. "In the past not all their runners have shown up because they're out of school," he said. "We're a young team with the home field and anything can happen." Clark expects a respectable finish from the women. "We should finish in the middle of the pack." he said.

'National Qualifier Baseball Central baseball coach Dale Ehler is looking forward to this weekend's NAIA District 1 baseball tournament in Spokane for reasons other than the sheer excitement of post-season playoffs. He is looking forward to the double- elimination playoff format. The first-year Central coach spent 11 years at Davis High School in Yakima where playoffs were always single elimination affairs. He saw his share of "no tomorrows" while he was there. But this year there will be a tomorrow if his team happens to have an off day and lose a game. "I had some pretty good teams at Davis that had one bad day and that was it, our season was over," Ehler said. "The whole season you've been working for can end awfully abruptly in a single- elimination tournament. "It's a nice relief to be in a double- elimination tournament. There's not as much pressure on the players because their season doens't depend oh just one game." Central takes on Pacific Lutheran University in the tournament opener at Whitworth College in Spokane. Whit- worth, a 6-2 winner over Central earlier this week for the right to host the district tournament, plays the loser in Friday's second game. The tournament continues Saturday and Sunday if necessary. "Some people are going to point at our record and wonder how we could be in the tournament," Ehler said. "We're go­ ing to take the opportunity and run with it," Central enters the PLU game with a 14-22 record and 12 wins in its last 18 games. Central finished second in the regular season district standings with a 10-2 record against NAIA teams. Both losses were to Whitworth, which finish­ ed first with a 19-3 NAIA record. PLU finished third. Ehler said righthander Greg Lybeck will probably start for Central on the mound against the Lutes. Lybeck is Cen­ tral's hottest pitcher of late, winning liis last four starts while compiling a string of 14% scoreless innings. He is 4-3 with a 7.46 earned run average. "I think the things that win tour­ naments is solid pitching, good defense and a lot of enthusiasm," Ehler said. "The rest takes care of itself." Ehler also figures Central's offensive hitting attack to be a key to the game. The 'Cats take a .310 team batting average into the tournament. "If we hit the ball like we're capable of, we should be very, very competitive in the whole tournament," Ehler said. "I think we're very capable of winning it." Central's 6-2 loss to Whitworth last Tuesday lost the 'Cats the home-field advantage in the district tournament. Central managed just seven hits in nine Innings off Pirate pitching. "If you don't hit, you don't win unless you get great pitching," Ehler said. "We got darn good pitching. They got great pitching." Central's Greg Fry turned in the "darn good" performance on the mound for Central. He gave up 12 hits, walked seven and struck out four in going the entire nine innings. Brad Carlson, Central's hottest hitter in the last two weeks, was 2-for-2 in the game to lead the 'Cats at the plate. He has^seven hits in his last 13 at bats (.538 average) including two home runs and a double. He is now hitting .273 on the season. The Whitworth game also marked the return of shortstop Greg Mooney who broke his right index finger two weeks ago. Mooney hit a home run in the first inning in his first start since suffering the injury. Third baseman Troy Phelps con­ tinues to lead the team in hitting with a .4261 batting average, just two ten- thousandths of a point better than Ron Balxaer's .4259. Ehler feels Phelps and Mooney, both seniors and the team's co- captains, could be key performers in the tournament for Central. "Phelps and Mooney are the two guys the team will rally around," Ehler said. "That could help us." —by Dave Cook CWU BASEBALL STATISTICS Through May 10 Hitting AB R H HR BI SB BA Troy Phelps 115 37 49 7 41 21 .426 RonBalmer..... 54 17 23 0 14 3 .426 Mike Mlnnltl 103 22 38 4 29 5 .369 Blake Johnson 85 20 28 1 11 7 .329 Greg Mooney 89 19 28 2 17 4 .315 DaveBozett 75 16 23 1 19 8 .307 Greg Douglas 75 7 23 2 13 0 .307 JoeSmith 20 3 6 0 3 1 .300 Eric Brebner 118 28 35 2 17 14 .297 Darryl Johnson 69 16 20 1 12 5 .290 Brad Carlson 44 11 12 2 4 1 .273 ClayHouck 24 7 6 1 8 2 .250 Mike Elsen 8 15 2 0 0 1 .250 MarkStem 49 12 11 0 2 4 .224 DanKain 28 3 6 0 2 0 .214 Jeff McShane 66 5 14 1 8 0 .212 Pitching W-L IP BR BB SO ERA Scott Morgan 1-2 25.2 10 15 11 3.51 Scott Polrier .7. 2-1 33 23 12 18 6.27 Greg Fry 1-4 43.1 32 46 23 6.65 Rod Gibson 3-6 45.2 36 31 28 7.09 Greg Lybeck 4-3 41 34 26 24 7.46 Mike Voelkel 2-4 30 28 19 18 8.40 Gregg Guidl 0-0 3 4 4 1 12.00 Mark Fisher 0-1 9 13 14 1 13.00 Eric Shultz 1-0 ~ 16.1 25 11 4 13.78 RonSkogstad. 0-0 2.1 6 2 2 23:15 Dave Williamson ...0-1 3 , 9 2 1 27.00 Mark Remington .0-0 3 9 3 1 27.00 Golf - For the second time in three years.
