May 30, 1985 Volume II, Issue XXIV CENTRAL WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY ELLENSBURG, WASHINGTON Visiting professor compares U.S., China By GUY PACE Contributing Writer Ding Q-Peng is getting ready to go home after two years in the United States. Ding has been teaching ^ Chinese Culture and Language at Central and will be returning to Anhui Province of China and his family in July. "I like it here very much," he said. "I find the experience here 9 very helpful and very rewarding. I learned how the checks and balances work in government. And I pay close attention to school systems." Ding said he especially liked the 9 credit system in the universities and thinks China's universities should weave the idea into their own systems. "The best thing about it is the student has greater freedom and q choice," he said. "Now, the (Chinese) student does not have a choice of study. Sometimes it is just a waste of time. If you choose a course that you like, then your time will be better utilized." Most of his contact with Americans is through students studying Chinese courses at Central, and he has made some comparisons of American and Chinese students. # "American students don't work as hard as their Chinese counterparts. Some are good and work hard. I don't understand. They paid a lot of money and they don't do the work," he said. # "It reminds me of the new generation of Chinese student and the ones who lost the chance (to attend universities during the Cultural Revolution in the late 1960s)." # Ding explained that during the Cultural Revolution, all the universities in China were closed and those students who were in school or were planning to attend were frustrated. When the # schools were reopened, those Who returned "worked very hard" to complete their educations. "In general, the Chinese students work harder. Students in the English department (at CWU) work very hard and are eager to express opinions," he said. While in the United States, Ding has had the opportunity to travel and has visited New York, Washington, D.C., and Canada during summer and spring breaks. As a result of his Visit here he feels he has come to' a • * better understanding pf Americans. "I understand you very well, now," he said. "I am very happy to have this chance to be here. I, find the second year especially1 rewarding." Ding said the ties between the United States and China will continue to grow and mature. "Chinese society is more open these days, despite some movements against spiritual pollution which have been abandoned," he said. "Anybody can choose his own (lifestyle), there are no taboos. There are some lifestyles that I don't like. I don't understand rock-and-roll. The singer's hair is all disheveled. There is sex and violence in it. I don't understand how people like it." On government, Ding commented, "In some programs, the United States is bogged down in a dilemma, like teenage pregnancy. The United States stands highest in the world in teenage pregnancy." He explained there were people and organizations working to "educate and discourage the phenomenon, but movies and television encourage it. No matter how hard good-intentioned people try to help, the effects of their efforts are offset by these movies and commercials." One benefit of open relations between the United States and China, according to Ding, will be trade. "I think the Chinese people will like American oranges. I love Sunkist!" He pointed out that oranges are scarce in China. "Few are produced and many people like them." Ding's home, Anhui Province, is an agricultural province, he said, that produces wheat, sweet potatoes and rice. There are some industries, large iron, steel and coal centers.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 Page 2 The Observer Graduation brings anxieties, excitement By KARLA MILLER Editor "Are you ready to graduate?" Just about every graduating student has probably been asked this many times. I know I have. And, you know, I don't know if I'm ready to graduate. Oh, sure, I have taken all my classes, I have enough credits, I have an internship lined up for this summer, So everything like that seems to be in order. But, am I ready to face the "real" world? I am relatively sure that I can do the work required of me. I feel my classes have prepared me for that. Am I ready socially? I think so. Throughout my college career, I have been active enough in groups, both formal and informal that I think I can mix with people well enough to manage socially. But, what about other things? What about moving to an unfamiliar area, not knowing about the people, surroundings, places and cultures? What about setting up a routine where I don't simply go to class for three hours a day and skip when I want? What about the friends I'm leaving behind? Will I be able to find a job? What if I don't succeed? I'm sure most of us, as graduates, have experienced several of these fears and many others. But they can be overcome. Moving to a new place opens new doors. It lets you see life from a different perspective. When I came to Central, no one else from my high school was here. But I adjusted. It was quite different here than high school, but as soon as I became accustomed to the differences, I loved it. Why should moving to another town be any different? And why should starting a new job be any different than starting a new quarter where you have new classes and new professors and new students in those classes? All right, so why should I be scared? Maybe it's good to have a few butterflies in the old stomach. It keeps you from getting bored with life — not knowing what to expect later on. And a new routine? Will it be different than, going to classes only three or four or five hours a day? Of course it will. But, you have to start sometime. This will be different because you can go to work from 8 to 5 and then come home and not worry about your job (with any luck!). You don't have to bring work home with you like you do with school work, and you don't have to worry about a test coming up that you need to study for. LETTER TO THE EDITOR Study sites lacking To the editor: The end of the year is coming to a close once more and although most of us would rather not think about it, we'll be studying for finals soon. Usually the weekend before finals is the most intense. During this time I need a quiet place away from distractions to get a last minute studying in. But where? The library opens late and closes early. The SUB is noisy. Dorms and apartments have too many temptations. I know I'm not alone because last quarter I counted 50 people waiting for the library to open the Sunday before finals. When the staff opened the doors it was a stampede. If professors and school officials want students to obtain good grades a place should be provided on weekends for them to study, especially the weekend before finals. I feel the solution is keeping the library open for its regular hours. PAM SCHWANDER b \N So, I think I can handle that But (and this is a biggie for social people), what about the friends you are leaving behind? Or the ones that are going a different direction? We'll make new friends wherever we go. Not to replace the old ones, because they will always have a place in our hearts. What if we feel that we are "ready to graduate" and we go out into that big world, and we don't make it? What if we do that horror of horrors and don't succeed? Okay, let's think this through rationally. Can we really.fail? Maybe we won't be happy in the job we end up in. Maybe the people we are working for aren't happy with us. That doesn't mean we're failing. It just means we aren't right for that job. Keep trying. There's something out therefor you. Along these same lines, what if we can't handle the work we're supposed to be doing? Okay, then we possibly and probably aren't cut out to be doing this work. Look for something else. Like I said before, there's got to be something out therefor you. This brings us to the fear that we won't be able to find a job. All right, I'll grant you .that this is a well-founded fear. But, it, too, can be dealt with. Most of the faculty or staff at this school are very willing to help anyone find a job. The job market is not an easy thing to just walk into. It takes a lot of perserverance, a lot of guts, and a lot of patience. I won t go into all the things to take into consideration when applying for a job (like being willing to relocate, being willing to start at the bottom of the organization, etc.), because I'm sure most of us have heard these things many times. Just be patient, be prepared to be humbled and turned down. If you are turned down, that doesn't mean you're an awful person it just means the employers feel you wouldn't fit into their organization. And chances are, if you had been hired, you wouldn't be happy. Yes, we the Graduating Class of 1985, are sharing fears and element about graduating.

a Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — Page 3 NEWS Solomon behind the scenes: PR director helps others run the show By PAM PUTNAM Staff Writer Even after 20 years in the business, Guy Solomon, Jr., director of public information for the University Relations office at Central, really enjoys university work. "I really like working in colleges and universities and working with students. They keep me thinking young and don't take anything for granted," said Solomon. Students who work in the university relations office gain practical, hands-on experience. "We use a lot of students in this office as interns," Solomon said. Solomon also emphasized the quality of his staff. "No manager's any better than the people who work for you. They tend to make you look good." G Four key people work in the University Relations office: Greg Kummer, publications director Robert Guptill, sports information director Barbara Radke, news bureau director and Linda Dihel, program assistant I. Solomon is a graduate of Kent State University with a bachelor of science degree in radio & television, and minors in journalism and English. He came to Ellensburg six years ago from Youngstown State University where he was the news bureau director. Part of Solomon's present job includes doing what doesn't fall into someone else's area. Examples are The Central Today television program, public service announcements for radio and television, slide shows or visuals, special event programming and general public relations. However, Solomon charges Central President Donald Garrity with the strongest public relations responsibility. "The main public relations person. fund-raiser and spokesman on the university is the president, and it should be." Solomon said his office's visibility is pretty low, but that's okay. "University Relations people and public relations people should operate behind the scenes. A lot of our job is getting things set so people can operate without worrying about the little details," he said. Recently Solomon has been spending time preparing for graduation related events, soliciting funds for the Central Investment Fund (CIF) scholarships, helping with organization of the athletic department's hall-of-fame program and preparing four public service anouncements for television to increase the general public's awareness of Central. In addition, the university relations office gets Central in the news. They keep the radio stations, television stations and newspapers current with what's going on at Central. According to Solomon it has been a good year with the media. "We've done a lot more, and there's been a lot more interest," he said. When asked what was the most exciting job he'd ever had, Solomon answered, "being a father." He has two boys, Chris, a junior at Central, and Brady, a junior at Ellensburg High School. He continued by saying parenting was a 200-hour-a-day job. Solomon then responded seriously. "Your most exciting thing is what you're planning next." In addition to work, Solomon enjoys handball and tending his rocks. "I've got the best crop of rocks in the valley," he boasted. Solomon also spends a great deal of time "hewing a lawn out of the wilderness," which he sees as a lifelong endeavor. Solomon lives about eight miles out of town and appreciates the driving time. "In the morning it gives me time to think, time to re­ adjust and make my schedule for the day. In the evening, it gives me a chance to unwind. I don't like to bring home problems." The self-described "short, bald headed dude with a mustache," is often the master of ceromonies for programs, including being the emcee for the original Lipsync. He said this is separate from his job. "Frankly, they didn't have anyone else to do it." mi Hm Iltif* ipw^ AM M wmm 8tm I* SB GUY SOLOMON — "A lot of our job is getting things set up so people can operate without worrying about the little details." Tuition to increase by 20 percent for fall By MAURICE D. HANKS Staff Writer - The price of education is always on the minds of parents and students alike, and here at Central, the cost of a college education is once again on the rise. "We plan to have approximately a 20 percent increase in the overall price of attending Central next fall," said James Maraviglia, director of admissions at CWU. Dean of Admissions and Records James Pappas said "The cost for tuition and fees for the 1985-86 year will be approximately $1,212." This year Central students paid $1,047 for the year in tuition and fees. The price breaks down to $349 per quarter. The expected increase will bring the $349 per quarter to $404 per quarter, an increase of $54. The 1985-86 actual budgeted expenditures for the nine month school year — that is, the cost for one year for an undergraduate state resident — will be approximately $5,750. For non­ residents, the cost will be about $8,740. "I feel that college may become only for the elite, the people who have the money to pay to get it," Pappas said. "As the state legislators make up their minds about higher education and what the prices should have to be, they should think about the students who will not be able to get the education they want," Maraviglia said. "Central has many people trying to get in even with the expected price increase." Pappas seemed to have the question that is at the heart of the tuition increase issue: "Where is the cost of higher education going to stop?"
Page 4 — The Observer Thursday, May 30, 1985 Greenpeace speaker warns of dangers at Hanford nuclear site By ELLEN A. HIATT Staff Writer The issue of nuclear energy and waste goes beyond the boundaries of student or citizen, according to Tom Buchanan, a member of the Greenpeace Hanford Project. "Anybody that breathes should be interested," he said in a personal interview. Buchanan spoke at the Hal Holmes Center after a film presentation on May 22. The film, "Breaking the Nuclear Chain, "is being shown on a statewide tour. Buchanan said the film gives a sense of the whole as it goes through the nuclear cycle. "It covers Hanford reprocessing and links up the whole world process." In discussing the film, Buchanan said it explained how the Soviet Union facilities underprice other uranium enrichment facilities, "then enriched uranium ends up in warheads pointed towards the Soviet Union." He called it a "huge irony." Buchanan said the PUREX facility in Hanford is "pumping out a huge quantity of microscopic radioactive materials. They are a military installation so they can classify stuff that is embarrassing to them," he said. Plutonium is a man-made element produced from uranium-238 by operating a nuclear reactor. The half-life of plutonium-239, the time required for one ounce to decay into one- half ounce, is 24,000 years. Thus, Buchanan explained, plutonium emitted into the atmosphere can cause cancer for 250,000 years. "It is very important that students get emotional about the issue," said Buchanan. "They are expected to be working around it. Our factories are tied to Hanford whether we like it or not," he said. Buchanan said his organization advocates an end to the Hanford site. He said there are other, more efficient means of energy production like hydro or clean- coal energy. "Stop production," he said. "It is very wasteful and produces very little of the national energy." i " ' * T vr-^xas,' . mm m v -i TOM BUCHANAN — "It is very important that students get emotional about the issue. Buchanan said students can have a study group around the issue. He recommended some materials that can be obtained from Grassroots Citizen Involvement Alliance (GCIA). "Plutonium Blowing in the Wind," published by Hanford Education Action League in Spokane and "Radiation in Eastern Washington," by the League of Women Voters, were some of the materials he mentioned. Teacher exchange benefits students as well as teachers By PAT BOYD Staff Writer . H • .: A 'first' has taken place over the past three weeks, when a unique teacher exchange took place between six elementary education instructors at Central and four teachers and two principals from Bellevue. The exchange in classroom settings was the idea of Education Professor Neil Roberts, supervisor of Central student teachers in the Bellevue-Seattle area. "It's critical that public school teachers and administrators become part of the teacher training process," said Roberts. "They're a valuable resource we should use." The exchange could be the first type of program between the classroom preparation and the real world practicalities of teaching, and was a learning experience for both groups.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — Page 5 Light project to save eyes, cash By PAT BOYD Staff Writer A Washington State Energy Office model program designed to save eye stress of the campus community and money for the tax and ratepayers is now underway at Central. The conversion of 65 percent of the facilities exterior lighting from the older, incandescent and mercury vapor lights, to the new, high pressure sodium lamps Teachers should save the college over half a million kilowatt hours per year, according to Steve Dukelow, engineer with the Central Physical Plant. The cost of the project is $160,(XX) with the state energy office paying $127,000 of the bill. "At the older power rates, which are being changed, there is a savings of more than $10,500 per year," Dukelow said, noting that the pay-off period for the new Continued from page 4 elementary schools in Bellevue visited the educational classrooms at Central, they found "The students asked questions that were very positive," said Glenn Madsen, Special Education instructor, who added "We (at Central) let the students be open and free." Last week, a group of six education faculty members reciprocated by visiting the two elementary schools in Bellevue. The six included Madsen, Helen Rogers, Doris Jukubek, Joe Schomer, Lillian Canzler and Cal Greatsinger. Madsen, Schomer and Rogers were visitors to Sherwood, while others in the group attended Spiritridge for a day-long session in classrooms that was, "a real eye-opener," according to Schomer. "I noticed that there were computers being used by fourth grade kids who were using them to write poetry." Sherwood Forest is a school that has a wide range of students from those in the special education department to those in the school's regular courses and those who have problems with the reading skills and require special instruction. The special reading classes include a Chapter 1 program which aids the students who are behind in these skills and need extra help in catching up with their classmates. Emphasis of the special education classes of Sherwood Forest is in 'mainstreaming' children with physical, emotional or mental problems by putting them into a regular classroom where the child can handle the material presented, part of the day. The program also teaches the child such skills as social awareness, early development and physical therapy. Madsen was surprised at the size of the classroom noting that, "There was a first grade class of thirty children that one teacher taught by herself." Equally impressing to Madsen was the "quality of teacher's and the instruction, along with the sincerity of the teachers involved. "There was none of the incompetancy you hear about," Madsen continued, adding "I thought it was a neat experience." Schomer echoed Madsen's appraisal of the exchange and added that he would like to see the teachers from Bellevue teach classes at Central next year. Also, as educators, the instructors should take a turn teaching in the Bellevue schools for a day. "We (the instructors at Central) get away from the public schools," said Schomer. "We often forget what the classroom is like." lights will be about 25 years. The savings will come as a result of the new lamps using less energy than the incandescent lights or the mercury vapor lights. The high sodium lights also offer a more uniform illumination which will be easier on the eyes. Non-uniform illumination can be seen by anyone walking from the intense lighting at the library and Instructional building into the dimly lit area behind the Dean science building. Dukelow said that a campus lighting committee was established at Central to set up uniform candle power requirements for each area, and that funding for the program requires all lights in the area to be up to the committee's requirements. In addition, safety and security will be taken into consideration. "The Central community will notice the biggest lighting changes at the Walnut Mall, 10th Ave., in front of Hertz Auditorium and the SUB, and south of the Dean Science building along the Mall," Dukelow said. Other areas around the campus where lighting changes will occur will be the reduction of the lighting intensity between the library and the Instructional Building, changing the lights at Parking Lot B, and replacing some of the big lights behind the library and reinstalling them behind Bouillon Hall. There will also be new lighting installed at Nicholson Pavilion, as well as areas in the Bassetti's living complex and at the Short- Getz apartments. The state energy office which is funding a large part of the project is doing it so that other state institutions will have a guide to follow in similar projects. Central's project eliminated some of the major stumbling blocks, and Dukelow feels the mistakes made by Central will guide others attempting similar projects. "The initial construction completion date is listed as July (1985), and we hope to have all of the construction completed by August, with clean-up expected after the summer break," Dukelow said. 1*11 pay you for your empty boor bottles and cans.

Page 6 — The Observer Thursday, May 30, 1985 CWU grad speaks on AT&T's past breakup By RICHARD CHRISTY Staff Writer One hundred years of telecommunication history was reviewed and the largest corporate restrtucture in history was explained by Larry L. Pinnt, Pacific Northwest Bell's vice president and chief financial officer, during his annual visit to Central Washington University last week. Pinnt, a 1956 Central graduate, discussed the 107 years of technological advances that preceded the court ordered divestiture of American Telephone and Telegraph (AT&T). From the invention of the telephone in the 19th century to intercontinental communication to the oncoming of fiber optic transmission, the Bell System, comprised of 23 AT&T operating companies, was the telephone company. At midnight, December 31, 1983, those 23 companies were officially divested from AT&T, completing an order for the breakup of the Bell System by the Department of Justice. After the breakup, Pacific Northwest Bell joined U.S. West, which is also the holding company for Mountain Bell and Pacific Bell. Pacific Northwest Bell is no longer "the phone company." The phone itself is no longer their business, but the telecommunications network that makes the phone work is. According to Pinnt, the monopolizing nature of the Bell System is gone and Pacific Northwest Bell is now a cdmpetitive, market-driven company. "Marketing and technology combined are going to impact consumer action," Pinnt said in regard to people's choice of telecommunications companies in the newly created open market. Pinnt feels competition will curb costs to the consumer, even though "required service (pre-divestiture) has an upper dollar limit, but unrequired service does not." Pacific Northwest bell relfects the U.S. West mission: to create the highest possible value for investors through long term capital gain while providing high quality service for customers. As a member of U.S. West, Pacific Northwest Bell has a stronger corporate stance than before. "Currently PNB is 25 percent of U.S. West," said Pinnt. "Before we were only two percent of AT&T."

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer Page 8 NEIGHBORHOOD Country bakery has 'pizzazz By KARLA MILLER Editor This must be it, we thought. There's no sign at the front of the house, but it fit the description. A brown house with a wooden fence, about a mile past Damman School, on a road winding into the hills. Okay, if it isn't the right place, we can ask here where we should go- As we walked around the back of the house, the smell of freshly baked goods drifted up, encircled our heads, and found its way into our nostrils. This had to be it. Yes, we'd found it — Pizzazz, a bakery on Damman Road, run by Patti Beard and Gina Weldon. Pizzazz has been in operation since October, when they started making baked goods for Safeway. Currently, they make cakes, pies and other desserts for several restaurants around town as well as still baking for Safeway. Patti Beard is the wife of Kelly Beard who was a caterer in Ellensburg until February when he began working in Yakima. Patti is an interior designer. She enjoys working in the bakery, but said she cannot cook. "I go straight from baking during the day to opening ajar of Ragu spaghetti sauce at night," she said. Although the business doesn't advertise, they have quite a clientele. Beard tells of a lady who comes over from Bellevue and buys six cheesecakes and stores them in her freezer. "When those are gone, she comes back for six more," Beard said. People come up from Yakima to get baked goods from Pizzazz and wedding cakes are often taken out of town, Beard said. On an average, Pizzazz makes 70 desserts a week, said Weldon. The Safeway requests are continual, constant, day-to-day, but the restaurant has special orders, she explained. Weldon is a nurse and a baker. She works at the Kittitas Valley Community Hospital one week and then has a week off, which she spends at the bakery. The Beards have four children, ages 4, 3, 1, and 11, and the Weldons have one child, age 3. "Gina and I were enthusiastic about the business at first be use there were four little kids and we wanted something we could do with them around," Beard explained. Then they got so busy, they couldn't keep more than one around at a time, she said. As if to prove a point, I noticed Kathryn, the Weldon's three- year-old daughter, happily playing with a frosting tube. The future for Pizzazz holds growth. Beard said. "I can see it growing once the kids are in school. Right now it can't possibly get busier withour stress to our persons." Goals for the business are worthy ones. "We want to make food that looks good and is good." — PATTI BEARD "We try to provide Ellensburg with quality food that is different," said Weldon. "We try to be innovative." Pizzazz uses no preservatives, no mixes and all their food is handmade. "We want to make food that looks good and is good," Beard said, proudly. "We aim for things you don't ordinarily see on a bakery shelf," Weldon added. Something Pizzazz aims for that is different from other baked goods is cutting down on the shelf-life of food. "We strive for freshness," said Beard. "That's important to the customer," she said, explaining that although most bakery goods have a shelf-life of two weeks, Pizzazz has a shelf-life of only two days. This insures freshness in their product. Before starting the catering business in Ellensburg, the Beards lived in the eastern part of the United States where Kelly worked for Stouffer's. When he got to Ellensburg, he worked at McCullough's restaurant. Then both couples began the catering business. Kelly began working in February in Yakima, and the two women began the bakery, ending the catering business. "It just got to be too much without him," said Beard. Well, that was it. Pizzazz Bakery.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — P«ge9 Hospital offers many services to community By PERRI BIXLER Managing Editor People helping people. That's what the Kittitas Valley Community Hospital is all about. According to Leah Kliger, hospital administrator, it took a lot of hard work from the community to create this facility. Historically, Ellensburg has had its fair share of hospitals. During the years of 1906-1960, the area had four. Two of those buildings are still standing. One was the Ellensburg General Hospital. This building is on Craig Hill near the castle. The other is the current Health Department Building on Nanum Street. There used to be a hospital where the current Safeway parking lot called the Valley Clinic Hospital and the County Poor Farm was the site of yet another hospital for lower income families. According to Kliger, there used to be two groups of physicians in town. The Taylor-Richardson group had as many as eight physician specialists affiliated with the Ellensburg General Hospital. They now practice out of the Medical Building, downtown 200 E. 6th. The Valley Clinic physicians were in the Valley Clinic and Hospital. There are currently five family practitioners who have a clinic on the corner of the hospital's land, Manitoba and Chestnut.

In its 21 years, this hospital has been able to offer a wide range of services. The typical medical or surgical patient's problem is taken care of. There is an obstetrics department for new moms and babies as well as a birthing room where an entire family may participate in the birth of a baby in a home-like setting.

Page 10 — The Observer Thursday, May 30, 1985 Alaskan students opt for E'burg Students give reasons for choosing Central By JILL HANKS News Editor With non-resident tuition reaching $4,206 for the 1985-86 school year, it is hard to imagine why so many students from Alaska choose to attend Central Washington University. Yet, they do. Each year, Central attracts more Alaskan students. Many pass the word on to brothers, sisters and friends. According to James Pappas, Dean of Admissions and Records, Central currently has over 350 registered alumni living in Alaska. These students give a variety of reasons for attending CWU. Jim Fox, a senior majoring in English education, is from Palmer, Alaska, which is approximately 2,500 miles from Ellensburg. "I mainly wanted to spend the winter outside of Alaska," Fox said. "I wanted to get away for a while." Fox came to Central because of its reputation for the teacher education program. He explained that many students can afford out of state tuition because of the state loan program in Alaska. When the state loans the money, they add an incentive — if the student returns to Alaska, 10 percent of the amount due will be forgiven. Fox, a third generation Alaskan, said that people's feelings toward driving long distances are completely different here than in Alaska. "Many people commute 50 or so miles to and from work every day," he said. "That's why many of the Alaskan students don't mind the trip home so much." Fox said that people from Palmer have been attending Central since the 1940s, and the Bagley said she came to Central because it wasn't too far from home and it was less expensive than the University of Washington. "There weren't any schools in Alaska that had a medical technology major," she said. "Central has a good program." John Linquist is an All- American swimmer from Eagle River, about 14 miles outside of Anchorage. He is a senior majoring in health education. The influencing factors bringing Linquist to Central included the education program and the success of the swim team. "My coach from high school "It's good to get away from home — but not too far." — PHIL NELSON word has been spread around. The parents of four students currently here from Palmer all graduated together, so it's becoming like a family for them here. Doris Bagley, a sophomore majoring in medical technology, is from Soldotna, about 150 miles south of Anchorage. She is also involved in the cross country progam at Central. used to go here, and so I was recruited," he explained. Linquist said he chose the Northwest for college because he wanted an area that showed a definite change of seasons. Linquist does some recruiting of Alaskan students for the admissions office on campus. He recruits by phone and has spoken to students at his home town high school. Phil Nelson is a sophomore majoring in public relations. He is also from Palmer. "I didn't want to stay in Alaska because there isn't a broad choice of colleges or programs," Nelson said. He chose Central because "it's close to home and I have a lot of friends here." Nelson's younger brother will be attending CWU in the fall. Nelson said that one of his track coaches recommended Central to him, and that helped in his decision. "It's good to get away from home — but not too far," he said. Nelson said he recommends the Northwest in general for students in Alaskan high schools. For him, however, Central seemed the best choice because of the atmosphere. Other Alaskan students who have built up reputations for themselves at Central include Robin MacAlpine of Chugiak. MacAlpine is a top-notch wrestler, placing second in the nation in 1983 and capturing the title of national champion for his weight in 1984. Three past and/or present Central cheerleaders from Alaska are Lisa Mason, Wrangell Lisa Taylor, Ketchikan and Maria LaMarsh, Ketchikan. Academic All- American and co-captain of the 1984 Wildcat football team, Dennis Edwards, is from Juneau. •W/A-A/WWAA', illi •mm A i mm mm W/'/sk / j , ' I'-'-' C '• Y.yy^'-, llisisss ft'- 7-v . ' .

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — 11 Central couple can talk to the animals By PAULA JOHNSON-LENOIR Staff Writer The chimp lab no longer gives tours, says Roger Fouts, the labs' chief psychologist. He said bringing an unknown person into the lab would be like a stranger walking in on you while you're using the bathroom. "The chimps deserve a little privacy too," he said. Because chimpanzees' natural language is largely gestural, they have "built-in" signs for many communications, researchers have found. The Fouts study con­ firmed this observation — the • subject Loulis, a five-year-old male chimp, used ASL in 16 per­ cent of both his play and social in­ teractions with his best buddy Dar, another young male. A year previously, the four- year-old Loulis had directed 90 percent of his ASL toward his mother Washoe (the first chim­ panzee to learn ASL gestures, 19 years ago). With another year's maturation, Loulis was directing 17 percent of his signed conversa­ tions to his mother, while 55 per­ cent of his ASL gestures were signed in conversations with Dar. The Fouts study categorized llllli AUDREY CRAMER AND KATHLEEN BEACH — These volunteers have worked for four years in the chimp iab. six different kinds of chimp in­ teractions — play, grooming, social, reassurance, discipline and eating/feeding. There are 15 students currently working with the chimps. One graduate has been accepted at State University of New York at Stony Brook, a very prestigious school according to Fouts. Part of the criteria for working with the chimps is scientific competency, but also the chimps have to like the students. "The students must have a good attitude about the chimps," says Fouts. This means looking at the chimps as equals. "This is a top notch research program," Fouts said, adding that he is surprised that more psychology graduates don't take advantage of the program. "After all," Fouts said, "what's more important: where you are at or who you are with?"

Several ways the hospital facility keeps current include a critical care unit (to be constructed next month) and ultra sound, which is used in the diagnosis of organs and to check the fetal age of unborn babies. The hospital also offers a full lab and up-graded x-ray service. The hospital has 50 beds, 140 different people providing services, 20 physicians and 50 nurses. It is governed by a five member elected board of commissioners who serve a six year term and work with a four million dollar budget. The area the district covers starts at Vantage and ends at Elk Heights, a few miles east of Ellensubrg, While the hospital has had its image problems in the past, Kliger said things have been done to change all that. "Some folks feel small hospitals don't provide the quality of care larger ones do. They think bigger is better," she said. "So in the last five or six years, 10 new physician specialists have been added, which the community wanted in order to upgrade medical care." The hospital staff also uses specialized skills and equipment through agreement with regional hospitals of larger size and resources.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 Thursday, May 30, 1985 rhe Observer — Page 13 Page 12 — The Observer Graduating seniors look forward to new careers with excitement By CHRISTINE TYRRELL Staff Writer Time's up. What are you going to be when you grow up? 1985 graduates making this phenomenal decision will find the job market greatly improved from last year because of the overall improvement of the nation's economy, according to college placement experts across the country. "Opportunities are up, and the economy is definitely a contributing factor," said B. Dean Owens, director of the Career Planning and Placement Center. "The job outlook is good for most fields, particularly business and industrial." Owens went on to say that 1985 will be even better than last year. "In 1984, of the students registered with us, 78 percent in the arts and sciences obtained jobs, while 91 percent in the education field were placed in teaching positions," said Owens. Owens believes that a student can never start too early in researching the placement center for job possibilities. "Beginning your senior year, you should establish a file with us," Owens said. "It's a great advantage to the student since we hear of many jobs that the potential graduate wouldn't f- ^ ' V fWBilijil COMMENCEMENT — Walking through the commencement exercises is an honor for graduating seniors. know about." Through attrition, the federal and educational work forces give an optimistic outlook for new and recent graduates.

"It feels good to be graduated," said Comstock. She said she has had a lot more freedom since she finished college. "I feel ready to face the world now," she added. Comstock feels her experiences at the Thunderbird count just as much as actual classroom skills if not more. Fashion Merchandising major Jolene Nixon will also be going through commencement exercises this spring. Nixon, thanks to the Placement Center, has a job as assistant manager at Jay Jacobs in Bellevue lined up for this summer. "I'm very excited about graduating," said Nixon. "Next year is going to be full of new experiences for me." Although she is anxious to graduate, Nixon, like many seniors, feels sad about leaving, her friends and boyfriend here at Central. The Placement Center does their best to find jobs for all graduates with a registered file. However, some graduates are still awaiting job oportunities. Business education major Wes Benjamin won't find out where he'll be teaching next fall until this coming July or August. Still Benjamin has a positive and bright outlook on graduating. "I'm excited about graduating but there's always the nervousness," said Benjamin. "I'm looking forward to getting started in my career." 41 r m m A'."'- • •«* 4s learned to good use." Fridlund is a flight technology major and also plans to go to California to get started in his career. U.S. News & World Report recently published a nationwide survey conducted by Michigan State University of 658 employers in various fields. These employers expect to see an increase of over 9 percent in hiring bachelor's graduates. Starting pay is expected to reach, in over 3 percent of those hired, to an average yearly figure of First, and probably most obvious, is work experience. This experience includes internships, summer jobs, and part-time jobs during the school year. Unrelated work experience is also an advantage because it shows the employer that you understand the meaning of work and that you appreciate having a job. It also helps demonstrate that you used your earnings to help pay for college costs. Second on the list is the ability to communicate well with others, both orally and in writing. Third, be thoroughly prepare for job interviews. Try to become as adept as possible in your ability to communicate by developing strong eye contact and being confident. It is also suggested that the prospective graduate practice interviewing techniques alone before going to an interview. Finally, it is suggested the potential graduate establish clear, realistic career objectives. Let the employer know what you want from your job and why, and if necessary, be willing to relocate. Jennifer Minnich is a leisure services major and plans to work with the Mercer Island Parks Department as Recreation Leader this summer. Minnich is also happy about graduating and getting started in her field. "I'm excited about going on to something different," explained Minnich. "I've got to move on now but it's scarey." After working this summer Minnich plans to travel to Los Angeles, California to search out job oportunities. Minnich has also been a dancer for several years and she anticipates furthering her studies in dance and seeking dance oportunities as well. Although she looks forward to graduating and moving on, Minnich will miss her friends here at school. She feels the hardest thing to deal with is leaving so many close friends behind. People aren't going to be as close as they were before. "Meeting people at Central is so convenient and easy," she explained. "Then suddenly you won't be right next door to them anymore."

V.. •v'-.i- •.* \ Page 14 — The Observer Thursday, May 30, 1985 t Rambo' brings up MIA issue By JIM MASSBY Staff Writer "Rambo: First Blood Part II " starring Sylvester Stallone, Richard Crenna, Charles Napier and Steven Barkoff directed by George P. Cosmatos rated R because of violence. Review The Vietnam War has been the basis for a wide variety of films. Because of its controversial nature, Hollywood largely ignored the war until the late '70s, when filmmakers found the anger and despair of many vets to translate well onto the screen. Major filmmakers like Francis Ford Coppola (Apocalypse Now) and Michael Cimino (The Deer Hunter) found in the war a, metaphor for madness, and used this to explore human nature itself. But lately, with the national mood swinging to the right under the conservative momentum of the Reagan administration, Hollywood has often forsaken Vietnam as a forum for exploring vital issues and turned it into a fantasy playground of shoot outs and special effects explosions. Latest Sly Stallone flick opens to mixed reviews Films like Uncommon Valor and Missing in Action (I and II) take the important issue of still- unaccounted for American soldiers in Vietnam and turn it into an excuse for lots of stabbings, shootings and explosions. Now, please understand that I believe the missing-in-action issue is of great importance. Something should be done about these missing Americans. But Hollywood, being such a wide- reaching and opinion-forming medium, should try to tackle the problem with thoughtful, serious films that engage our sympathetic emotions, not just churn out more and more gut- wrenching action flicks. Hollywood feels it is dealing with the problem with these action films, but it takes more than that. At any rate, Rambo: First Blood Part II opened nationwide last week, bringing bad and good news. The bad news is that it also fails to seriously address the missing-in-action issue. The good news is that it is a fast- paced, high-tension action thriller. In First Blood (1982), John Rambo, a Vietnam vet in search of a way of life in an America that didn't want him, had a run-in with the sheriff of a small Northwest town that escalated into a one-man war against the town and the national guard. At the end, Rambo gave himself up to the authorities, a desperate man abandoned by his own country. Rambo picks up where First Blood left off. Rambo is offered his freedom if he goes on a mission in Vietnam to get photographic evidence of missing-in-action Americans. But the mission is set up to fail for political reasons, and Rambo ends up taking on the Vietnamese, the Russians, and the Bureaucracy with muscles, bow and arrow, knife, missile and other assorted weaponry. The film is out to please everybody. It caters to the left by having as its hero a trod-upon vet up against the heartless government bureaucracy, and gives a nod to the right by having its hero beat the hell out of the Vietnamese and the Russians. Rambo and Sylvester Stallone are trying to create a new myth, an indestructable champion of justice, and the character never gets much more than a scratch. Director George P. Cosmatos is a fair action director. He knows where to put the camera to capture a good explosion, but he is a bit too obvious. You always seem to realize that there is a camera between you and the actors. Stallone is, of course, Stallone. He is very good at playing withdrawn, explosive personalities, what with his curling lip and surplus of beefcake. He does little more that shoot and stab a couple hundred enemies and then give a burst of emotion toward the end. And that's all that's expected of him. Suffice to say, the film is a slam bang, kill-a-minute action flick, a rolicking good time for those who like a bit of violence without having to worry about thought- provoking issues. Is this good or bad? It's great to have quality action films, but sometime shouldn't we turn our time and money to more important things?

Central's drama department will, on June 7 and 8, present a cold-war spoof bearing the lengthy title, And To My Nephew Albert I Leave the Island What I Won Off Fatty Hagen In A Poker Game. Performed by Drama Professor Betty Evans' spring Reader's Theatre class, And To My Nephew... was adapted for the stage by Evans from a story by Nigel Forrest. "The play concerns an Englishman named Albert who sets out to inspect his newly- inherited island off the south coast of Britain," said Evans. "The island, he discovers, is little more than a chunk of rock, but while he's there a Russian spy ship wrecks itself on the beach. Albert is persuaded to lease the Russians half the island so that they can establish a listening post directed at England," she said. Albert's fortunes continue to improve when the U.S. Marine Corps takes an interest in the Russians activities, renting the other half of the island to keep an costumes, and prepared the eye on them.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — Page 17 Students feature fashion designs Collection '85 highlights 'best program in state' By CONNIE BLODGETT Staff Writer ' To present to the public the latest fashion direction and developments in pattern-making, Central's Fashion Merchandising Students' Association (FMSA) will stage Collection *85 a week from today. The Third Annual Fashion Design Student Show takes place June 6 at 7 p.m. in the SUB Ballroom and is free, according to Celia Hyman, program coordinator. Hyman, a senior fashion design and construction major, said the show will feature a variety of apparel including sportswear, dresses, menswear and suits. All garments are designed, made and modeled by fashion design and construction students, Hyman said. Collection '85 is more than just another fashion show. Hyman said it will be as much educational as it will be fashionable. "We want the show to be a community service," Hyman said. "We want to get people excited about sewing and to give an impression on the engineering of garments, explaining the • technical decisions involved." With Collection '85, FMSA members are getting helpful background for their careers. FMSA is designed to educate and prepare members for careers in all aspects of the fashion industry, Hyman said. "The production of the fashion show is good experience for FMSA members," Hyman said. "It's also a lot of fun clothes are fun and sewing is fun." Central's fashion design and construction program prides itself on the placement of its graduating students, according to Carolyn Schactler, professor of clothing and textiles. "There are lots of original and talented students in our program," Schactler said. "Our students who graduate go on to work in the professional field. A few are accepted into the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York." Kristy Watson, a graduate home economics student, said there's a reason for good placement for graduating students in the fashion industry.

According to Marge Powell (RN) of Smith and Dietrich Clinic in Sedro Wooley, one form of skin cancer caused by prolonged sun exposure is basal cell epithelioma (BCE). Other factors such as family history and skin type determine a persons chances of developing skin defects. However, sun exposure is a main cause. Treatments include surgical removal of the lesion (tumor). If that's too heavy, too far away for us to worry about, how about premature aging. Wrinkles, folks. The Central Health Clinic offers these suggestions to students to help promote a healthy tan. Here's a tanning schedule: iil mmm mm* SUNBATHER — Little marmot peeks out to catch some rays for a safe, dark tan. C.J. Nelsen/The Observer If you burn easily, begin your tan with 15 minutes of sun-time every day for a week, add five minutes per day thereafter. If you tan some, start with 15 minutes the first day, add five minutes each successive day. If you're one of the lucky ones who tan easily, 20-30 minutes the first day, then add 10-15 minutes per day thereafter. According to Lia Schorr, a skin care specialist at Lia Schorr Skin Care Salon in New York City, there are three major skin saving tips. To soothe burning, spread plain yogurt all over sunburned areas and rinse with cool water. To bring down swelling add a tablespoon of baking soda one quart of milk to cool bath water. To heal, use body lotion containing aloe. Always replenish lost moisture by drinking lots of fluids. Next time in the sun, wear sunscreen with a high sun protection factor (SPF) and watch the time. Some suggested products to use if you burn easily and tan poorly are the ones containing PABA (para-aminobenzoic acid) and Benzophenes. All products containing PABA should be applied 30-40 minutes prior to going out in the sun, and reapplied every two hours and after swimming. Enjoy the sun, remember the effects are cumulative and gradual exposure is the best and safest way to tan. 26 FLAVORS OF FROZEN YOGURT Coming Junel Fresh fruit toppings or dry toppings - Waffle cones - No additives or preservatives - Very low in calories and cholesterol - New taste sensation From the place that gives you fresh gourmet pizza and pasta You never know who you'll meet at ADELINE'S ATTIQUE y -r'i V? 8th and Main !*• # 962-8877 - , '••V • Remember the pizza - Free delivery in Ellensburg 315 N.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — Page 19 SPORTS Former Central wrestler to coach Wildcats By KEVIN MARTY Staff Writer Co-coaches will be directing the 1985-86 Wildcat Wrestling squad. Scott Ricardo, who ran operations for his first time last year will be sharing duties with former National champion Greg Ford.

CO-COACH — Greg Ford, former Central wrestler and national champion, will co- coach the 1985-86 Wildcat wrestling team. Ford was an assistant coach last year. wrestling program and to continue the standards that Coach Beardsley and Central Wrestling have established," said Athletic Director Gary Fredericks. Ricardo also coaches football, and in the fall can't devote full- time to wrestling. "He will be helping Tom Parry (Head football coach) more, so will spend more time with football, The wrestling team needs a full-time coach in the fall, and I was recommended," Ford said. Gabe Damiani of Jamestown, N.D., may also be part of the staff next year. "If Gabe gets a graduate assistant job at Central, he would be a great asset to the team. He was a national finisher at 177 pounds, and could work with the heavyweights," Ford said. Ford, 28, attended high school in Mill Valley, Calif. Throughout his 12-year wrestling career, he has qualified for many national exchange teams, and won many honors, including Freestyle and Greco State Champion his senior year at Tamalpais High School, and was namedr California Collegiate State Champion at the University of Berkely with a 42-0 record. But an injury prevented him from attending nationals while at Berkely. Ford gave his national hopes another try, this time at Diablo Valley College in California, but injuries plagued his career again. The next two years were spent coaching, then in 1979 he had a shot at the U.S. Olympic team. "I took a whole year off and trained hard for a spot on the 1980 Olympic Team," Ford said. Then the Games were boycotted so they didn't have them, which was a big letdown for me after all that training," he said. During his layoff from college competition, he lost all NCAA eligiliblity. The NAIA provided new hope for Ford. "I contacted a few NAIA schools, including Central, and Coach Beardsley was the only coach who stressed education along with wrestling. He was honest and showed he cared, so that's why I picked Central," he said. Ford attended Central in 1982, and reached his dream in 1984 with a first-place finish at nationals. "I can't say enough about Coach Beardsley," Ford said. "He did a lot to get me there, and I wanted to win nationals so bad for him." "We are recruiting guys from Chicago, California, Idaho and Washington now," he said. "I'm also coaching the Eastern Washington National High School Team this summer, which will be a great opportunity to recruit," Ford said. "I want to compete in the top tournaments next year to prepare us for districts and nationals, so Central can remain one of the top 10 teams in the nation," Ford said. "I love working with kids, and want to prepare them for a college education and wrestling career," Ford said. "I owe much to the sport, because I got a lot out of it, and want to put a lot into it. But right now, I want to take the Wildcats to another national finish next year," he said. KEEPIN' SCORE Standing eight count for boxing By JOHN MERRILL Staff Columnist Boxing is a joke. There was a time when I was a fan of the sport. Remember Ali- Spinks? Ali-Spinks II? Leonard-Duran? I wouldn't have missed those for the world. Then something happened. I think it started when Roberto Duran said "No mas" to Sugar Ray Leonard. He claimed later that he had eaten a big meal before the fight and had developed a case of indigestion, but the simple fact is that he made enough money as the loser of that fight to live comfortably for the rest of his natural life. Or maybe it was when Larry Holmes beat the stuffing out of a badly overweight Muhammad Ali to squelch Ali s final comeback attempt. It was then that fans realized that there would be no more Ali, and that a new era of boxing had begun. Holmes is still the champ, and will probably remain so until he breaks Rocky Marciano's record for most consecutive title defenses without a loss. Carl "The Truth" Williams proved last week that it takes a knockout to beat the champ. Holmes can't be knocked out, so no matter how bad a challenger pounds him, he will retain his title by simply staying on his feet for 15 rounds and landing a few timely blows, both of which he can do. That's why he's the champ. Another factor is the growing concern over the boxer's safety. It has reached the point where Leonard has retired and Howard Cosell, the voice of boxing throughout the 1970s, has disassociated himself with the sport. Too many fighters have come away from the sport with oatmeal for brains, and referees have beeen alerted to stop a fight before it reaches the punishing stage. Ali's slurred speech is Exhibit A of what the sport can do to its participants. So let's look at 1985's version of professional boxing. The greatest heavyweight of all time, Muhammad Ali, is ancient history. One of the greatest lightweights of all time, Sugar Ray Leonard, retired fearing further damage to his injured eye. The champion can't be knocked out, and fighters are being stopped before they get the chance to work up a lather. So why bother? Wait up, Howard, I'm coming with.

Thursday, May 30, 1985 The Observer — Page 21 Athletic director looks back on first five years By MATT MASSEY Staff Writer Gary Frederick is the kind of person people can't help but like. He does as people do to him — and then some. And look what he has done for the Central Washington University athletic program since he took over as athletic director beginning in the fall of 1980. The CWU athletic department was already on its way to stardom and headed for success when Frederick took over the reign, but nevertheless the sports enthusiast has taken the program to newer heights — both on and 'Cats get 15 grid recruits Mike Ellis of Olympic High School in Bremerton heads an impressive list of 15 high school players who have signed letters- of-intent to play football for the 'Cats next fall. Ellis, a six-foot, 225 pound offensive guard, will play in the Washington All-State game August 3. Ellis was selected Most Valuable Lineman in both his junior and senior seasons and Most Valuable Player his senior stanza. Two junior college players have also announced intentions to bang helmets for the Wildcats, Parris Drake and Brian Van. Drake, a running back from Mountlake Terrace, by way of Spokane Falls CC, earned honorable mention all-star honors while at Spokane Falls. Van, a 1983 graduate of Kelso High School, attended Lower Columbia CC this past year. LCC does not have a football program.

"This (sports) program was well established when I took over," said the 47-year old Frederick, who is nearing the end of his fifth year at the athletic director post. "I think we maintained what we had going and maybe improved." Improved indeed. With five of its 16 teams finishing in the NAIA Top Ten, Central had the most top ten finishers ever. A new high. Also, off the field Frederick has helped bring the student population closer to the sports teams at CWU, thus drawing more money through tickets and booster club donations. Frederick created the CWU Hall-of-Fame, got the CWU Booster Club on its feet, and started the end of the year Night of Champions banquet in the five short years as athletic director. The banquet has run the last three years. See Frederick page 22. Taking care of your health is our business! moneii /aver/ k SOS N.

Page 22 — The Observer * Thursday, May 30, 1985 Frederick Continued from page 21. "We've gotten the Central athletic program image out to the public," said the former Wildcat offensive center on the 1957-58 Evergreen Conference championship teams. "The public knows about the CWU success. Sports information (Bob Guptill, director) has done a great job for the programs, as has the Dally Record, and the Observer." Frederick has also set up after­ game functions for teams and the parents of team members, in the last five years, as well as barbecues before the Homecoming football games. Numerous post-season rallies for successful sports teams have taken place since he started as athletic director. One way Frederick might have helped the Wildcats in competition is by lightening the coaches' load of burdensome busy work. He knows how that can take away from a coach's teaching, as he was one for many years himself. "My main function is to give the coaches time to use their coaching skills/' said Frederick, who has headed various sports for the past 28V£ years and still coaches women's basketball. "My job is to try to get enough money for coaches to run their programs. The students have supported well in the last few seasons. The sports program couldn't function without the money," he added. Essentially, Frederick allows the coaches to concentrate primarily on coaching and not about the "menial tasks" of budgeting money and the like. Frederick has that done himself. Frederick compliments the entire community for part of the success of Central athletics. "The increase of the amount of money we get from outside sources has been great," says the 1955 graduate of Raymond High School. "The school itself can only allocate so much to the programs. Our booster club is starting to move with its work ($2,000 dollar donation at the banquet). "I'd like to maintain the level of success we've achieved," Frederick ascertained. "If we get the money, I'd like to add men's and women's soccer." He sets the latter as a goal for the near future. Although right now, Frederick feels CWU's overall success is as good as anybody in both Oregon and Washington at its current level of competition in the NAIA. He ranks the Wildcats' overall program and Pacific Lutheran University's as the top in the region. "We have some great academic programs," Frederick attributes to part of CWU sports success. "That makes it easier to sell Central athletics." Frederick has worked himself up the ladder of success, going from player to coach to athletic director. The 5-foot-8 Frederick was an all-conference football and baseball player at Raymond High, and also played basketball from 1952 to 1955. At Central he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Education in 1959, and picked up a Masters of Education in 1965 and a Doctorate in Education at the University of Idaho in 1974. At CWU he was honored as an all-conference center for two years and one year at linebacker, playing from 1955-58 under Abe Poffenroth. Poffenroth helped Frederick get his initial jobs at CWU as an associate professor of Physical Education, head baseball coach, and assistant football coach. Directly upon graduation from Central, he spent IV2 years coaching at Thorp High School and continued on for eight more years at the high school level. Frederick has put in his time, coaching various sports at Waitsburg (1960-63), Central Kitsap (1963-67), and Silverdale (1967). He then moved up to Central that year. In all, he was an assistant coach for the Wildcat football squad for 17 years and was the head baseball coach for 11 years (1968-78) compiling the best record for a CWU basbell coach (234-147). He was NAIA District 1 Coach-of-the-Year three times. Frederick is the only baseball coach to ever guide a CWU team to the NAIA College World Series. He did that in 1968 and 1970.

CWU shut out at National meet • 1 Ghoulies 2 co-f«atura 0 • CREATURE • §••••••••••••••••••••••••«» Ends Tonight By LOREN WOHLGEMUTH Sports Editor 21 years. Not since 1964 had a CWU track team failed to score a point at the national track-and-field meet. The 'Cats were shutout at the 1985 NAIA Track-and-Field championships at Hillsdale College (Mich), last weekend. The four Wildcat entries, Kim Burke, Katie Crowell, Charles Chandler and Mike Pace did not fall completely flat, however. Chandler recorded a 14.5 time in the 110 high hurdle preliminaries, but was eliminated in the semifinals with a 14.7 clocking, three-tenths off his personal best of 14.4. Chandler also ran a 55.2 in the 400 intermediate hurdle race. Crowell, Central's record holder in the long jump, turned in a 16-3 effort in the event, well off her 18-4V2 record-setting mark. Pace, entered in the 1,500 run, was clocked in at 4:01, almost seven seconds off the '3:54.05 mark that ranks him fifth on CWU's all-time list. Burke also faltered in her quest' for a top-six finish. Burke had a personal-best 18:03 going into the national 5,000 meter run, but crossed the finish line twenty-two seconds off that mark in 18:25.2. frmnAcifiPlTg 'THEIR FIRST ftSjgfgiMS is GOTCHA The Purple Rose off Cairo Phone for Show Times p • OPEN FRIDAYtSATURDAY'SUNDAY « • THE ELLEN DRIVE IN j Showing May 31.
