According to Richard Mortland, manager of the Washington state- owned liquor store in Ellensburg, li­ quor sales can go up as much as 25 percent as students return to cam­ pus each quarter. Mortland estimated that liquor sales go up 20 to 25 percent each fall as students begin a new academic year. He said that while liquor sales are high all year, fall is the heaviest selling period. Likewise, a significant drop oc­ curs in sales each June at the end of spring quarter. Mortland said that on the average, sales go down 18 percent during this period. Mortland also stated that liquor sales experience a very slow period at the end of August and the begin­ ning of September when summer quarter students have completed their courses but fall quarter has not yet begun. Alfred Teeples, Central's campus police chief, said that his staff gets many calls each Wednesday, Fri­ day, and Saturday night complain­ ing about noise and mischief related to parties in which alcohol is served. Teeples estimated that 90 percent of the problems considered malicious mischief, which often in­ volve vandalism, stems from an over-consumption of alcohol. Teeples said that the main pro­ blem is that residence halls are not large enough to accommodate par­ ties. Soon the people start to spill in­ to public areas, he saidrand that at­ tracts more: partjr-goefs, as Well asv minors. Teeples said that even local high school students find their way to CWU parties. When minors are caught con­ suming alcohol they are written a $170 ticket, and then they must ap­ pear before District Court, Teeples explained. The ticket is also reported to the Dean of Students' of­ fice. Mike Lopez, associate dean of students, said that upon a first of­ fense of a minor consuming alcohol, without other violations such as vandalism, a CWU student will be sent a letter stating that such repeated behavior, if caught will warrant punishment mm® % 3 UPPING THE PERCENTAGE — Here another CWU student helps contribute to the 25-percent rise in alcohol sales in Ellensburg each fall. On second offense, or first offense which included other violations, a student is usually interviewed by the Dean of Students' office and put on probation. Students may then be expelled from the campus or from the university upon further of­ fenses. Teeples said that minors pro­ bably obtain alcohol from people who are of legal drinking age, or they may successfully purchase beer from local supermarkets. He doesn't feel, however, that many minors are successful in purchasing hard liquor from liquor stores. Mortland agreed. He said that within the first two weeks of fall quarter in particular, when the greatest number of new students begin attending Central, he en­ counters problems with minors try­ ing to buy alcohol. He said, however, that fake identi­ fication is usually easy to spot so af­ ter a trial effort, minors stop at­ tempting to buy hard liquor in his store. Teeples assured that problems with students becoming intoxicated are not exclusive to the CWU cam­ pus. As a matter of fact he stated, "Probably our problems are somewhat less" than at other schools.

Page 2 — The Observer Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 Are CWU students welcome here? XSN\N I Make The Call By MATT MASSEY When in one of the area's super­ markets or other local businesses, does it ever seem as if someone is giving you the "up and down" eye. Well if you're a student at Central I'm sure you've felt that way at least once since coming to Ellensburg to further your educa­ tion. Many times the townspeople of Ellensburg give CWU students the feeling that "students in general" are just a nuisance or are trying to take over long-time residents' ter­ ritory. Just that look of discern­ ment in the townsperson's eyes at­ tempts to lay a heavy paranoia on those students receiving an educa­ tion at Central. This feeling given to students welcome and like part of the com­ munity that surrounds the univer­ sity. It is those owners, that want to be associated with the college, that bring the town community and the university community closer.

But without this institution of higher learning, this town would be headed for economic despair and possible ruin. Many businesses would shut down and the townspeople would have to do without many of the lux­ uries they might have today. What would happen to King Videocable Company? It wouldn't exist here. Burger King, Dairy Queen, Arby's, Pizza Hut, and some of the other chain corporations would pull out of town, most likely.

Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 The Observer — Page 3 Psst! 'Please be quiet man, I'm trying to study' To the Editor: We all encounter complica­ tions in our lives that serve to make it more difficult to get through every day. Because many of these complications are unavoidable, we accept them and work with them. When these complications are avoidable, however, they become less ac­ ceptable. This is the case with the excess noise in the library. . The library is supposed to pro­ vide a quiet, studious atmo­ sphere, not' a place for social inte­ gration. This seems to be pro­ moted by such areas as "The Fishbowl" on the second floor. What complicates the situation even more Is that very few mem­ bers of the library staff seem to be willing to ask many of these thoughtless people to quiet down for the sake of others. Library staff aren't the only ones that should attempt to control the noise. Each individual in the li­ brary needs to take on the astro­ nomical responsibility of keeping their mouths shut when study­ ing. There are "no smoking" signs posted in the library, why not "please keep relatively quiet" signs? I'm not asking for a morgue, but less noise would help not only me, but countless others, by providing much more productive time. I realize it is not likely that any signs will be posted or library staff will take responsibilities be­ yond their assigned duties. This leaves it up to each student to exercise self-control in the library. Please think of the purpose for the library before you go into it. If your main objective is to B.S., go somewhere else — I've got work to do. Signed, Hugh Carney Librarian ASCWll on choice of Costa Tb the Editor Yesterday (Nov. 11) I attended the ASCWU-sponsored lecture by Alexandra Costa. 1 would like to compliment the ASCWU on their choice she was interesting and thought-provoking, and could hardly have been more timely. However, in casually dis­ cussing her remarks with other listeners, I was struck by how often readers and hearers of things Soviet often seem to have heard entirely different things. Predisposition and back­ ground reading seem to be ex­ tremely influential along varying filters of information. Costa pointed out that the main difference between the USSR and non-socialist societies is the great emphasis "we" place on the individual. I think it is well to note that this is also one of the great features of democratic edu­ cation: we like to think we are educating citizens to acquire and evaluate information indepen­ dently. With this in mind, I would like also to concur with her evalua­ tion of some of the recent writings on Soviet life by Western visitors, and offer for those interested in a bit of independent reading, or those who had to leave early, or who could not attend, the follow­ ing list of excellent books in the CWU library. •The Russians (1976), by Hedrick Smith. •Russian Journal (1979), by Andrea Lee. •Russia and The Russians (1984), by Kevin Klose. •Moscow Conversations (1972), by Susan Jacoby. •An American in Leningrad (1982), by Logan Robinson. •Russia: Broken Idols, Solemn Dreams (1983), by David Shipler. Of course, there are many others, including quite a few by Russians. These, however, are readable, non-specialized, and fascinating. Thanks again, ASCWU.

W: Page 4 — The Observer Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 NEWS After accident, Lemert draws up mall bike plan By TIFFANY McCUTCHEON Staff Writer Scott Lemert, representative to the Faculty Senate, has a plan that would save students a lot of need­ less pain and suffering. No, the plan does not involve the cancellation of finals. His plan is the next best thing. He has drawn up a plan to designate a bike path along the main north-south mall of campus. According to Lemert, many stu­ dents have complained to him about the number of bike-pedes­ trian accidents and have asked why something hasn't been done to solve the problem. Lemert got personally involved in finding a solution when he was the victim of just such a mishap at the beginning of fall quarter this year. He spent the first part of the term with his left arm in a sling, as a re­ sult Ironically, in class he was seated next to a cyclist who was also recovering from a collision. His first step, Lemert said, was to talk to an architect with the facilities planning staff. He was encouraged when the architect told him that the university had a plan in the works to take care of the problem. Unfortu­ nately, the plan would not be opera­ tive for eight to 10 years. In addition, the funding which would have to be approved by the State Legislature would amount to several thousand dollars. KRcWivlvX'W! :SSSr - ' , v~ xs. iiifs? CROWDED THOROUGHGFARB — Bikers and pedestrians have had problems using the main mall walkway at the same time. (Thus, Scott Lemert, representative to faculty senate, has devised a plan to alleviate this crowded mall scene. Lemert decided to take the re­ sponsibility for bike and pedestrian protection on himself. He brought up the problem with the other members of the ASCWU Board of Directors and asked if he might form a committee to study the pro­ blem. They assented. The beauty of the plan, says Lem­ ert, is that it will be fully operational by spring quarter and could cost under $500. Lemert says that the ASCWU is willing to finance half of the cost funds have already been al­ located. He is asking that the uni­ versity match the funds and supply the labor. Lemert's strategy involves paint­ ing a lane along the left-hand side of the main mall and placing signs designating it as a voluntary bike path. He estimates that if just 65-70 percent of the bikes on campus use the lane, it would relieve 30 percent of the congestion on the mall during peak traffic periods. Lemert stresses that using the lane would be voluntary. There would be no tickets issued for not using the lane. However, he is hop­ ing that cyclists would use it as a courtesy to fellow students and as a safety precaution for themselves. Anyone having suggestions or opinions on the proposed bike lane is encouraged to call him at 963-1693 between 10:00 and 11:00 a.m. daily. Alexandra Costa: A Soviet defector reflects : S V , {if- By ERIC LUNDBERG Staff Writer Expressing a great love for her homeland, Soviet defector Alexan­ dra Costa explained she had to leave, or "lose my respect, my sense of self-worth." Addressing Central students at McConnell Auditorium Nov. 11, Costa explained how a citizen of an Eastern-Bloc country can get so de­ pressed "living a life of lies." For Costa, defection was the only answer. Costa became the first person to defect from the Soviet Embassy in Washington, D.C., in 1978. Her de­ fection came three years after she and her family came to the embas­ sy. She and her two children sought asylum in the U.S., but her hus­ band, first secretary of the Russian embassy, refused to join them. Costa's presentation consisted of telling the audience about her life behind the Iron Curtain, why she felt the need to defect, and the differ­ ences between the two countries and their systems of government Costa then began to give the McConnell audience a glimpse into the Soviet Union through her perso­ nal experiences. V'v. • ^ COSTA — A strong voice Costa defected after what she call­ ed "living as a little part in a huge machine," where the economy is basically "run by incompetents . . . and where success is measured by one's abilities to compromise one's beliefs, self-conscience, and values to be in a total compliance with the system." Costa went on to explain that in most of the talk shows she has done since her defection, she is usually asked to explain her leaving the Soviet Union in 30 seconds or less, a task she says is impossible because of the complexity of her reasons for leaving. "The Russia I loved was not the Russia I was living in," Costa said. "It was the Soviet Union." During her speech, she did not disguise her feelings of hatred for a Soviet structure of government that "discourages individuality, acts like a huge train never changing course, and always ready to roll over the top of anyone or anything that gets in its way." The loss of individuality, Costa said, is why so many Russians wish to leave their homeland. "There are no rewards for personal accom­ plishment There is no threat of los­ ing your job. This creates the illu­ sion of a healthy economy. It is not ready to collapse, but it is falling apart." It is this kind of atmosphere — the total ignorance of management in the Soviet economy — that makes the second economy in Russia (the black market) so profitable, and "necessary for the regular economy to survive." "On the black market," Costa told the audience, "a pair of blue jeans costs about 150 rubles... the salary a teacher in Russia earns in a month and a half." Speaking about the finality of de­ fection, Costa emphasized that its the most drastic step a member of an Eastem-bloc country can take, with less than 700 defections in the past 20 years from behind the Iron Curtain. "You can't go back, ever," Costa said. Her father, a retired officer of the Russian air force, was expelled from the communist party after her de­ fection, but later was reinstated af­ ter he denounced her actions and disowned her as his daughter. Her mother, a journalist whose writings were controlled by the So­ viet government, started writing children's stories under a pen name. In regards to American journalist Nick Daniloff, she said, "probably the KGB felt that it needed to send a message to all the Russian-speaking Western journalists running around Moscow and to all the Russians talk­ ing to them . . . QUIET DOWN." Costa was a teacher at a special school in the Soviet Union, a school that taught Marxist ideals to com­ munists of foreign countries. The students who attended the school il­ legally — those students being from countries where communism was outlawed — were taken out of the classroom one day a week and taught guerrilla warfare tactics.

This new "alternative" to tradi­ tional birth control, is a device "about the size of a quarter-inch of a cotton swab" that is placed in the "cervix and anchored like an intra­ uterine device or applied by attach­ ing it to a diaphragm."

MEChA encourages minorities to attend CWU By JUNE MAW Staff Writer Encouraging minorities to attend Central and keeping them here is the goal of MEChA, a recently formed Hispanic organization. Ac­ cording to Carlos Reyes, advisor, this club's 42 members meet once a week to discuss concerns, needs, and issues of minority students. "We generate activities that keep students interested in the club by sponsoring field trips and speakers on cultural awareness," said Reyes, who is also assistant director of ad­ missions. "But we also want to keep students interested in school and enrolled at Central." Many students belonging to MEChA have parents and other family members who are migrant workers and have only completed elementary school. Because of this background and because of low in­ comes, Hispanic students often do not get any encouragement to com­ plete high school or to attend col­ lege. These two causes are the main reason for the low number of minor­ ities enrolled at Central. "We have too few minorities," said Mike Lopez, dean of students and minor­ ity affairs. "I'd like to see the percen­ tage increase from six percent to 10 percent of the total student popula­ tion in the next couple of years." The number of Hispanic minori­ ties, however is increasing. This year Reyes expects the number (not yet available) to exceed the 182 from fall quarter 1985. "This is partly due to the College Assistant Migrant Program (CAMP), a grant given to the university to sponsor students from migrant families," said Reyes. "It gives us the money to sponsor more eligible Hispanic students." MEChA serves the interests of pri­ marily Hispanic students but is open to anyone interested in His­ panic heritage and culture. The club meets on Tuesdays at 5:15. World Hunger Week gives rise to activities here for first time By NICK BEAUMONT Staff Writer Saturday, Nov. 15, is the first day of World Hunger Awareness Week, and there will be three events over the week whose purpose is to build an awareness of the fact that hunger is a harsh reality for many nations of the world. Saturday, at 10 a.m., there will be a ten-kilometer run/walk. Persons who wish to participate can either pay an entry fee or have sponsors pay them for their efforts. Sponsor forms are available in the SUB, at Jerrol's, the First Lutheran Church of Ellensburg, at Dairy Queen, and at the Chamber of Commerce. The entry fee for those who decide not to get sponsors is $10. Monday and Tuesday there will be a hunger banquet at which a large meal will be made and divided among the participants in propor­ tions that represent the unequal in­ come among the First, Second and Third Worlds, the decisions being based on per capita income statis­ tics. Thursday, Nov. 20, is National Fast Day, when around the nation people will fast as a symbolic means to show they are aware of the strug­ gle of the poor and hungry in many parts of the world. Other activities of World Hunger Awareness Week include films, speakers, and an availability of ma­ terials on world hunger. There will also be a food drive. The ASCWU is doing the promotion for the Week. This is the first time that World Hunger Awareness Week activities will take place here. The driving force behing World Hunger Awareness Week here at CWU and in Ellensburg is Dana Belkholm, who has supporting him groups and individuals of the col­ lege and the city. The proceeds from the events will be split between na­ tional and local hunger organiza­ tions. Thirty-five percent of what is collected will go to Friends in Ser­ vice to Humanity (FISH), 40 percent will go to Oxfaiji America, and the last 25 percent will be distributed to other hunger organizations. Sponsorships need not bring in a large amount, says Belkholm, stat­ ing that any money collected would be readily accepted. Organizations that are sponsoring and participat­ ing in Hunger Week are the ASCWU, the Lutheran Campus Ministry, the Catholic Campus Mini­ stry, the First United Methodist Church, and the First Lutheran Church. Central's Residence Hall Council has chosen to sponsor one dollar per person up to 200 people who walk or run the 10K. RHC has also chosen to walk the race together to prove their interest, and they agreed also to have a competition between the halls to see which hall misses the most meals on the day of the Hunger Banquet, which is the day the dining halls are having the Thanksgiving feast. A trophy will be awarded to the hall which has the most residents who can hold out until dinner. More information is available where the sponsor forms are avail­ able, and, if you wish, Dana Belk­ holm can be contacted at 925-2844. % 1206 Canyon Road 925-6922 Over 170 Locations To Serve You Les Schwab Credit Plan Twist Link Passenger Chains For Regular or Radial Tires 155x13 » 23 08 165x13-$26.25 165x14—$26.21 175x14—$26.74 P185/75R14—$27.62 P195/75R14--$29.73 P195/75R15-$29.73 P205/75R14-$29.73 P215/75R14-$30.79 P215/75R15~$30.79 P225/75R14—$32.77 P225/75R15—$32.77 P235/75R15—$43.06 CHAIN RETURN POLICY Applies to passenger tire chains only.

Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 The Observer — Page 7 Campus complaints Outside By ERIC LUNDBERG Staff Writer For the week of Nov. 6 through Nov. 12, 1986, the Campus Safety Department handled 25 criminal complaints. They break down as follows: Four thefts, including one bicycle theft, four malicious mischiefs, four harassment complaints, three noise complaints, three traffic infractions, two property damages, one DWI, one overdose, one hit and run acci­ dent, one alcohol violation,and one warrant arrest. •Sometime Nov. 8, 1986, a hit and run property damage accident occurred in the Nicholson Pavilion parking lot near the entrance to 14th Ave. The driver struck a stop sign causing considerable damage to the sign post. The vehicle involv­ ed is dark green in color and should have damage to the front portion of the vehicle. If you have any informa­ tion regarding this incident, please call the campus police at 963-2958. Alley Cat of the Week •A Central student and three friends claimed to be bored one night last week. They decided to combine the numbers of former Seattle Seahawks and Supersonics to make a phone number that they proceeded to call on this campus. They then called their first number, apologizing about calling so late, but telling the answering party that the Sonics, "have retired number thirty-two." The fifth time they called the same party, who was a residence hall manager in the Bassettis. The recipient left the phone off the hook, then proceeded to contact Campus Safety from another phone. The safety officers traced the call to a dorm room on campus, went to the room, and received a confession on the spot.

But for the people who create and drink these potions of blood and/or brain matter of the "freshly dead," it may be fatal. In France, a lawsuit brought against the largest chain of ham­ burger stores, QUICK, by the Gen­ eral Association of Users of the French Language, ended last Wed­ nesday. The French government ruled that English words, such as "milkshake" and "Bigcheese," can't be used on any menu in Costa France. The ruling was based on a 1975 law which states that, "In the offer, presentation or advertisement — written or spoken — use of the French language is obligatoiy." Lastly, when you need an excuse for being late to class you can use Walter D. Miller's story. He claims a mouse jumped out of the dashboard of his car when he turned on the heater. The mouse proceeded to jump onto his chest and then dive into his clothing. This so surprised the driver that he lost control of the car. Actually, this wasn't a claim. Miller has the "squashed" mouse to prove it. Continued from page 4 the way Marx intended it to work, is Sweden." Costa said. "Your system here in the United States is based on the individual, his accomplishments, and his goals. In the Soviet Union, the state is every­ thing. The individual doesn't mat­ ter." Another difference between the two countries, Costa mentioned, was that in the USSR, there are about 250,000 employees working for the KGB. Most of them are paid informers — some in the workplace and others in social groups. "Americans have the ability to live here alone, without relying on anyone else, if need be. In the Soviet Union, there are about one to two informers for every 100 people," she said. "Once you find someone you can trust," Costa said, "you immediate­ ly make friends with that person. I was surprised at how much longer it took to make friends in this coun­ try." Very few people in the Soviet Union believe in communism. Most of the people memorize what they have to in order to get through school. At first people try to be crea­ tive in the workplace, but after awhile, discouraged with the gov­ ernment's way of thinking, "they just give up trying and follow direc­ tions," Costa said. Surprisingly, Costa said, the Polit­ buro, an organization of 13 to 15 men at the very top of the Soviet structure of government, find Rich­ ard Nixon and Ronald Reagan their two favorite American presidents. Kennedy was made a Russian hero and victim of the capitalistic society, and Jimmy Carter was the presi­ dent they disliked the most. Soviet Chairman Mikhail Gorba­ chev, younger than most of his pre­ decessors and definately more dy­ namic, does not have the confidence of all the Russian people just yet she said. "The country can't be fed slogans anymore. They don't plan to overthrow the system, but they won't buy the slogans," she added. Costa hopes the defections from the Soviet Union will continue and that it will become easier for others to defect in the future. "I was one of the lucky few with a chance to es­ cape. It's like a prison," she said. Boozin' Continued from page 1 responsible student body, and that only about five percent of the students account for 80 to 90 per­ cent of the problems.

Page 8 — The Observer Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 BOD discusses endorsements tables issue By ERIC LUNDBERG Staff Writer "The joint was a rockin', goin' 'round and 'round." Mick and the Stones were not singing about the ASCWU Board of Directors meeting that took place in the SUB Kachess room, Tuesday, Nov. 11, at 3 p.m., but their song titled, "Around and 'round," describes it well. The board members were not able to come up with a workable solution to the question of whether or not the Associated Students of Central Washington University's Board of Directors should offer en­ dorsement to all organizations, movements, or groups seeking it. The choices the board discussed were: Have a policy leaving endorse­ ment up to the board to decide in each individual case, endorse none of the organizations asking for it or offer sponsorship to all groups, en­ dorsing those which the board feels the students of Central endorse, also. Karen Henninger, board representative to clubs and organizations, felt that she had benefited from the wide spectrum of events that ASCWU has brought to this campus, but endorsement should not be part of ASCWU's obligation. Mark Johnson, ASCWU Presi­ dent, handed his gavel over to Duane LaRue, vice president in order that he, Johnson, could pre­ sent a set of guidelines the ASCWU might follow when a particular organization asks for ASCWU en­ dorsement. The guidelines would allow the board to give endorsement to certain organizations or events that the board felt represented the students as a whole. Apartheid, nuclear disarmament, and ending world hunger were given as ex­ amples of this. Johnson told the board, "The boan^has never had a set policy in dealing with handing out its en­ dorsement." He made it clear to fellow board members that the policy was needed to give the board and future boards something to look to when the need arises. Objection after objection was voiced by Scott Lemert, represen­ tative to club senate, who felt that the board was not acting in the students' interests if they were giv­ ing themselves the power to give en­ dorsement out to some groups, but not all. "We represent all the students on this campus, not just some of them, and if we give our en­ dorsement to some of them and not all of them, we are not acting in their best interests. I feel we should en­ dorse no group, organization or movement, but give our sponsor­ ship instead," Lemert stated at the meeting. Both LaRue and Johnson did feel it was in students' interests to have a set policy when it came to the en­ dorsement of certain groups on this campus. Every board member voiced their own opinion of what the board should consider, but no conclusions were drawn. After twenty minutes of lively debate on the matter, the board decided to table the policy un­ til the next board meeting. In other board business, Vice- President of Student Affairs Ed Har­ rington and his computer fee pro­ posal to Central's Board of Trustees was discussed. John Drinkwater, director of student activities, asked, "At what point do students start saying, no, no, no, to more fees? You pay tuition already, you should receive some services for it" LaRue also commented, "We [the board of directors] should try to be involved directly with the proposal." President Johnson said, "Within the last year we've been hit with all these fees and policies ... maybe it would be a good idea for a large number of students to show up." That meeting will take place at 2 p.m., Friday, December 12, in Bouillon, room 143. In other matters, Koeen Lindberg was appointed to the Teacher Education Council, David Housh to the Athletics Committee, and Timothy Carr to the Affirmative Ac­ tion Committee.

Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 The Observer — Page 9 Boning up for some heavy duty research By GREG RICE Staff Writer Ask any good cop about solving real-life mysteries and he'll tell you that if a solution isn't apparent within 24 hours, chances are cut in half that it will ever be solved. And with each passing hour the chances decrease even more. Cold cases can be very intimidating. But the age of a mystery doesn't dissuade Dr. James C. Chatters, associate director of the archaeo­ logical survey team at CWU. He sel­ dom deals in hours or days or mon­ ths when he pursues the solution to a mystery. Even a matter of a few years is insignificant Chatters thinks in terms of decades, cen­ turies, even thousands of years. One such mystery that began to unfold this summer took Chatters back 3,000 years, give or take a few hundred years. Chatters and his archaeological team were conducting a dig in the barren land of the U.S. Army's Yakima Firing Center southwest of Ellensburg when they found what they believed was a temporary winter hunting camp with some unique features for a site dating back 2,500 to 3,000 years. The site of the dig was an area where the Army is now construct- s ting a multi-use range. By statute, before an area of possible historical significance can be disturbed, the Army must conduct an en­ vironmental and cultural impact study, and it was the findings of this study that resulted in the govern­ ment funding that supported Chat­ ters' exploration of the area. Based on findings at the site. Chatters speculates that the camp was used by nomad hunters, most likely from the Yakima or Wanapum Indian tribes, who had ranged north from their permanent camps near the Columbia River in search of meat for the winter. He said that closely concentrated patterns of bones and other debris found at the site indicate that it was a virtual "meat processing plant" with an established, organized assembly-line procedure. The site, which was oval in shape, included a circular placement of stones that probably served as a cooking pit. In another area there were a couple of milling stones used to crush bones. In another spot piles of deer and sheep bones had been discarded, often in layers, suggesting years of repeated use at the same site. Chatters feel the site is unique because evidence suggests that rather than being a pithouse camp common to that era, it appears the site was at ground level and was contained in a shelter-like structure, most likely a tepee formation covered with animal skins. Although the excavation team was unable to positively determine the presence of walls or support posts, the suggestion of such a structure adds an interesting piece to the never-ending puzzle of the nature of Native American life in the Pacific Northwest. Excavation of the site was com­ pleted in August, and now Chatters is engaged in the next phase of his Please see Dig page 10 wmm 2-YysZ-.

'' s. : Play based on myth explores childhood fear and fantasy By JUDY KIRK Staff Writer "The Ice Wolf," an Alaskan Es­ kimo myth, is the basis for the stu­ dent-produced children's play be­ ginning this week and continuing through Saturday. Marva Holmes, director, who chose this play as her senior project, says it is the story of Anatou, a blue-eyed, blonde girl born to isolated Eskimos. Brooke Thomas plays Anatou, learning courage and forgiveness upon being rejected by villagers after her parents' death. Her par­ ents, Karvik and Arnarqik, are played by Alan Lain and Sarah Thompson. Terry Uppenberg is Kiv- ioq, the village spokesperson, and the Storyteller is played by Krys- toffer. Ken Sims plays Tarto, Anatou's (dose friend, whom she saves after she becomes a wolf. Leesa Thayer, Sarah Barnes, Daniel Herron and Terry Uppenberg play other vil­ lagers and two children, Jessaca Leinaweaver and Reed Secunda, play a fox and a raccoon. Sandra Doyle plays the Wood Goddess who turns Anatou into a wolf. Her extraordinary costume and mask, as well as those of the others, was designed by drama in­ structor Jim Hawkins. Kathleen Yepes as costume assistant helped in the creation of these intriguing costumes which liven up the barren Arctic stage. "Holmes has done an excellent job of directing this play," said Haw­ kins. Her work with her cast "tells the story with a good group spirit." Tony Smith's lighting is also good, said Hawkins. "The lighting sets a lot of the mood in this play."

Chatters express some frustration that the results would not appear in a popular publication targeted for the average reader. Even though the Yakima dig only gave up a few of the many secrets that land holds about the Native American life in this region, Chat­ ters is not intimidated by the vast mystery still to be unraveled.

RQCK'N' REVIEW] It's your turn to judge By WALT HAMPTON Staff Writer MADONNA, "True Blue"— (Choose the appropriate number of stars according to our rating system) Due to the torrent of criticism of Mr. Webster's article last week, I, Walt Hampton, have resolved to write a review that is palatable to all of you. The concept is one we are all familiar with: we dwell on what we like (i.e., popcorn, hamsters, and rock 'n' roll), and we ignore what we don't like (i.e., old lovers, tests, and fat girls in stirrup pants). You will be given a choice of words at each crucial point in the review, so that you can gloss over the words which you deem inappro­ priate. Hopefully you will finish this review feeling refreshed, satisfied, and generally a happier CWU student. READY? Madonna's new album, True Blue, is (great, trash, pan-dimensional). If you don't have it, you should run right out and (buy, puke on, crawl under) it. From the first song to the last. Madonna further demonstrates her flair for (singing, bovine torture, under­ garments). The album is produced by a man whose talent is outweighed only by his (experience, paycheck, coke habit). As usual, the drummer and bass player keep a good (beat, nap, court case) going through the whole album, which is sure to make you feel like (dancing, wretching backwards, Mexican food). The keyboards have that (hi-tech, '58 Volkswagen, Mexican food) sound, which is sure to make the album popular with (college stu­ dents, dogs, Mexican food). The album's hits have already earned it a place on the (radio, U.S. frisbee team, music faculty), and are sure to be remembered for (years, future reference, the good of mankind). Yes, Madonna has (done, botched, dyed her hair with) it again, and eager teens are (rushing, stumbling, kissing up) to mom and dad for the money to buy (this album, earplugs, contraceptives). So don't miss out! Madonna's new album is sure to (please, offend, give gas to) even the most (discriminating, shell-shocked, buck- toothed) listener.

Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 The Observer — Page 15 SPORTS It's AppleCup time and the Fuskies are hucked Calling The Shots By DAN The Apple Cup is upon us and, as usual the Washington Huskies are nationally ranked. The ques­ tion that arises in my mind at this time each year is why can't the Huskies win a national champion­ ship and, for that matter, why can't they beat the Washington State Cougars? Answer: because their weakness is their strength. It is Don James conservative brilliance that produces the year- in and year-out dominance of the Husky defense. It is also Don James conservative stupidity that produces one of the most boring, ineffective offenses in the country. Hold on. Before you deluge me with letters to the editor, listen to some evidence. At last look, Warren Moon, Steve Pelluer, Tom Flick and Hugh Millen were NFL quarterbacks. All were Husky quarterbacks, and none was a star during their time at the UW (in fact, I'd be surprised if any of them with the exception of Moon, even made all-Pac 10). To play in the NFL, all of these guys must be tremendous athletes. So why weren't they great in college, you should ask. Simply put, it was James's offense that stymied them In Rick Fenney, the Huskies cur­ rently have one of the best fullbacks in the country. He rarely carries the ball Brilliant, Don. Come to think of it, the Huskies haven't had a good running back since Joe Steele (don't try and tell me that Jacques Robinson was good — two great games and a history of obesity don't cut it). With the caliber of athlete that a school like the UW can attract, Charisma Don ought to be able to get a top­ flight back once in awhile. But what great back would want to play in this offense. As WSU wide reciever Mike James said, if his brother (Chiis, a former UW runn­ ing back) had gone to WSU, he would have been an Ail-American. In other words, James doesn't know how to utilize a good back when he has one. In preparation for the Cougar game last year, Don, ever the sly one, tried to put one over on the Cougs. He put some option plays in the game plan. That a boy, Don. That's like trying to throw a steak past a pack of hungry wolves. First of all the Cougars are an option , team, which means their defense goes against it everyday in prac­ tice. Secondly, the option is a high- risk offense that can't be im­ plemented overnight. Jhe result of James's supposed offensive trickery was yet another Apple Cup loss. It has now been shown that the Husky offense wastes quality quarterbacks, doesn't know how to use quality running backs, and can't put together a quality game plan. In other words, the Huskies don't have a quality offense. There are two solutions to this problem Either James jumps into the '80's and hires a good offensive coordinator, or James starts tak­ ing pre-game bong hits to loosen up his imagination. Don James high on pot Sounds interesting. Maybe he'd become in­ teresting. Basketball season has arrived Men outlast alums By LOREN WOHLGEMUTH Staff Writer Led by the 24 points of Tom Pet- terson, the Wildcats held off a pesky Alumni squad, 116-106, Saturday night at Nicholson Pavilion. Petterson, a burly 6-5 senior, shot eight of sixteen from the field and a perfect 8-8 from the charity stripe. He also grabbed 10 rebounds in the free-scoring affair. The Alumni, paced by former standout guard Reese RadlifFs 24 points, were a dismal 10 of 34 from the field in the first half. Joe Harris added 23 points for the 'Cats, and Ron Vanderschaaf had 22 in the fast-paced victory. Sophomore Dave Biwer, up from the junior varsity team last year, ad­ ded nine points and nine rebounds, as the 'Cats enjoyed a 54-49 edge on the boards. For Head Coach Dean Nicholson, the game offered a look at many dif­ ferent player combinations in a game situation. For the fans, the game allowed a glimpse of some of ths former Nicholson charges that helped create the NAIA powerhouse that resides in the Pavilion, such as Radliff, Bob Kennedy and Mel Nin- nis. Kennedy added 14 points and Ninnis had 13, as the Alumni had five players finish in double figures in scoring. Next action for the 'Cats is Satur­ day against Brewster Packing in Wenatchee. J, mmmm mmm •ysss.ssftsX-y/, mmm TOP NEWCOMER - JC transfer Lanette Martin adds excitement to the Wildcat backcourt. AIRBORNE — Jeff Leary threads the needle with a pass to teammate Monty Chellis. Women crush ex-'Cats By GEORGE EDGAR Staff Writer some The CWU women's basketball team scored a runaway 68-44 vic­ tory over the Central Alumni last weekend. The game started slowly, but the pace picked up quickly when a Lanette Martin basket gave the cur­ rent 'Cats a 17-5 lead at the 12:03 mark. The alumni's rustiness show­ ed in their 17 percent first half shooting percentage. The 'Cats took a 35-16 lead into the locker room at the half, and things got no better for the Alumni in the second half. They couldn't come within less than 20 points, and made numerous bad shots and turnovers. On the Alumni's bright side, Colleen Hail scored a game- high 12 points, followed by Marcia Byrd's 10 points and 10 rebounds. And how did some of the graduates feel after the game? "Winded," summed up 1986 grad Debbie Jollie. "These girls are a lot quicker." Head coach Gary Frederick added that, "Half the fun is being here. It's a way for them to keep in contact with us and the school. It's a good situation for both of us." Forward Kristelle Arthur led the regular 'Cats with 10 points, while newcomer Lanette Martin added nine. Of course, it doesn't count," said Frederick, "but it gives us the chance to play everyone and an idea of who plays." ih •aranMMUM a ^
Paget* The Observer Thursday, Nov. 20,1986 Wildcat gridders end season on a high note By BRIAN ZYLSTRA Staff Writer All football teams try to end their season on a high note. Well after its very strong performance against Eastern Oregon on Saturday, the Wildcats probably caused a few glasses to shatter around the La Grande area. Displaying an offense that ate up chunks of yardage and a defense that recorded its second con­ secutive shutout, the Wildcats rip­ ped EOSC, 42-0. The easy Northern Division win gives CWU a final division record of 4-2, placing the 'Cats in a three-way tie for second place with Puget Sound and Simon Fraser. UPS end­ ed its season with a 40-25 victory over Whitworth, while SFU finished the campaign with a narrow 43-42 triumph over Western Oregon. Central ends the season with a 6-3 record. The Mountaineers close their season with an 0-5-1 division mark and a 0-8-1 season ledger. The Wildcat offense once again displayed exceptional ball control, collecting 459 yards in 76 plays. CWU offensive coordinator Scott Ricardo was pleased with the play of the offense. "Our players were fired up for the last game . . . We pretty much dominated them," Ricardo said. Ricardo said the Mountaineers used an eight-man front in an effort to stop Central's rushing attack, but he pointed out that the 'Cats were able to exploit weak spots in the defensive scheme. Central did this well enough to collect 280 yards on the ground. Ed Watson led the barrage with 108 yards on 22 carries, while Jimmie Dillingham had 98 yards on 17 car­ ries. Dean Bumgarner carried the ball 15 times for 69 yards. Ricardo was pleased with the rushing balance. "That s pretty good, getting three guys nearly 100 yards each." CWU's defensive unit was as ef­ fective as the offense, limiting Eastern Oregon to only 142 yards, all on the ground. The Moun­ taineers were unable to complete any of the seven passes that they at­ tempted. The 'Cats were barely able to hold running back Craig Henderson below his average of 131.4 yards per game, as the 5-9, 185-pounder finished with 127 yards on 31 car­ ries. Henderson ended the season as the CFL's leading rusher with 1,183 yards. UPS's Mike Oliphant finished just behind Henderson, collecting 1,137 yards. Oliphant averaged 9.3 yards a carry. Bumgarner opened the scoring for the Wildcats with a five-yard run with 29 seconds remaining in the first quarter. Craig Warmenhoven's extra point gave CWU a 7-0 edge. The 'Cats wasted little time in padding their lead, thanks to Ron Nelson, the 6-0, 190-pounder returned a punt 75 yards for a TD with 13:24 left in the second quarter. Nelson's score marked the second straight game that he has returned a punt for a touchdown. Last week against Southern Oregon, Nelson scored on a 54-yard return. For the season, Nelson set school records for most punts returned (25) and punt return yards (344). Warmenhoven's PAT made the score 14-0. Central scored again minutes later when Jim Hill reached the end zone on a one-yard run.

Central's offensive machine had no difficulty getting cranked up after intermission, as Dillingham reached the end zone on a two-yard run with 11:20 left in the third quarter. You-know-who kicked the conversion, building the Wildcats' lead to 35-0. Watson provided the final nail in the Mountaineer coffin with an 11-yard touchdown gallop with 4:55 left in the third. The TD gave the school's all-time leading scorer 194 career points. Warmenhoven's final extra point gave him 186 career points, locking up his posi­ tion as the second-leading scorer in Central history. Hill completed nine of 17 passes for 179 yards.

Thursday, Nov. 20, 1986 Preview :-W£& The Observer Page 17 CWU, ranked ninth in the 1986-87 NAIA pre-season poll, has the necessary pieces for another ex­ cellent basketball team. Now it's up to master craftsman Dean Nicholson to mold them all together. "Hopefully, we should be improv­ ed," Nicholson, who has guided CWU to 491 victories and 19 na­ tional tournament berths in 22 seasons, said. "Whether we will ac­ tually do better is hard to evaluate at this stage." Last year, the 'Cats finished with a 27-6 record and reached the quarterfinals in the NAIA national tournament before losing to even­ tual national champion David Lipscomb. Four starters, six of the top seven scorers and nine of the 12 players on last year's natioanl travel roster return this winter. Honorable mention Ail-American Ron vanderSchaaf, Rodnie Taylor and Joe Harris will provide the nucleus for the 'Cats title bid. Last year they combined for 43.2 points and 19.8 rebounds per game. VanderSchaaf led the team in scoring averaging 16.4 points per game, while Taylor averaged 14.0. VanderSchaaf also led the team in field goal percentage, free throw percentage and rebounds. Taylor ranked second in rebounds. men s Harris and Tim Durden also return off last year's starting unit. Harris averaged 12.8 points, 4.6 re­ bounds and 4.9 assests. Durden averaged 9.2 points and 3.4 re­ bounds. ed," Nicholson said. "They were both excellent practice players and were team leaders." Harris, all-district last year, will be a key player. An off-guard in 1985-86, he'll see more duty at the up V V FREE ADVICE — The Dean offers some tips to Washington State coach Len Stevens before the alumni game. Also back are Tom Pettersen, Doug Burge, Israel Dorsey, Bill Veliz, and Jeff Leary. The key loss was at guard where starter Joe Callero and top sub Brad Evenson completed their eligibility. "We can replace their numbers, but they are both going to be miss- RENTALS SUN - THURS VCR RENTALS SUN - THURS Ask afeeitf mt mmmtim mtete twl ? days a eek point this winter. "He looks to be improved. Certainly he will be a very key player," Nicholson said. "The guard position will certainly be adequate and it could be a strength," Nicholson said. Burge, Leary, Veliz and newcomers Tim Brown, Bobby Felder and Dave Reischmann are among the candidates to join Harris in the backcourt Burge was a starter early in the season, and he scored 21 points in a 75-73 win over PLU in December, but saw little action in the second half of the season. It now appears as though he'll be redshirting this year. Leary is a good outside shooter and has improved his ball handling and defensive skills. He may be able to take advantage of the new three- point rule. Veliz had some great moments of­ fensively, coming off the bench to spark the 'Cats to a triple-overtime win over Whitman, but needs to im­ prove his consistency and defensive skills, Nicholson said. Brown may be the top new guard. He averaged 15.8 points and shot 52 percent from the field at Cen- tralia CC, earning him second team NWAACC Western Region honors. "He is a good shooter and smart player. He can play either the point or at off-guard," Nicholson said. Felder averaged 15.5 points and 6.0 assists last year at Shoreline CC. He's rated an excellent shooter and good all-around player. At small forward, the high-flying Durden is the incumbent. "He's a great athlete who needs to learn to stay under control," Nicholson said. Dorsey is one of the most improv­ ed players on the squad. An ex­ cellent defender, he could give the 'Cats some rebounding punch at the position. VanderSchaaf and Taylor, along with Pettersen, 1986 redshirt Mon­ ty Chellis, freshman Sam Baumann and Dave Biwer should give the 'Cats one of the best inside games in the country. The sky's the limit for Taylor. "In the district playoffs and the national tournament, he played like an Ail- American. We're hoping he can put together that level of performance over the full season," Nicholson said. Pettersen was CWU's third- leading rebounder last year, despite playing less than 20 minutes a game. He's also improved and should be more of an offensive force to go along with his defensive and rebounding skills. Chellis, who is coming off a stress fracture, is a good rebounder and scorer. Baumann is the best freshman on the squad. He earned all-state honors at Juanita HS last year, and, at 6-7, he has the poten­ tial to contribute this year. Biwer, who also played at Juanita, averaged six points and 4.9 rebounds for the junior varsity last year, and is one of the most improv­ ed players on the team. CWU opens its 32-game schedule on Dec. 3, hosting Alaska-xJuneau. The Wildcats will be without the services of Taylor and Dorsey for at least the first five games of the season. Both are ineligible due the the NAIA's 24-hour rule. — con­ tributed by Sports Information Director Bob Guptlll BASED ON A RECENT STUDY, HERE'S A COMPLETE LIST OF KCAT'S COMPETITION: 1.. 2.. 3. 4. 5.

"You take what you can get. With 41 other teams there it made for a lot of scratching to get that good jump from the starting line," head coach Spike Arlt said. "Some failed to cross the finish line." Chris Morton, continuing his late- season surge that saw him finish se­ cond overall at districts, finished as the 'Cats top finisher. He covered the eight kilometer course in 25:39 to finish 49th in a field of 350 finishing runners. Art Clarke, who was a steady and effective runner for the 'Cats all year, coming in as the 'Cats top finisher in every regular season meet, came in a disappointing 107th with a time of 26:12. Clarke's performance was disappointing in that he had placed 55th the past two years at Kenosha. The Wildcats were 37 points away from a top ten finish. "The weather was ideal for everyone, we just flat out got outran," Arlt said of his team's average performance. "Chris (Mor­ ton) ran a good race, though," he added. "We ran on grass and the ground was frozen because it was six degrees when we arrived on Thurs­ day. It made for a fast course," Arlt said. Indeed it was, as Adams State and Western State, both from Col­ orado, settled for a first-place tie for the team championship. Individual­ ly, Rick Robirds of Adams State came away with the title, setting a national meet record of 24:10, shat­ tering the old mark by 29 seconds. Finishing behind Morton and Clarke for the Wildcats was Ken Rossetto. Rossetto's time of 26:18 was good for 118th overall. Roun­ ding out Central's scoring were Tim Hyde and Joel Czech, finishing 126th and 129th ,respectively. Chuck Little came in 137th and Steve Jackson finished 237th. Neither of those showings earned team points, as cross-country scor­ ing adds the placings of the team's top five finishers. "Winning the district was certain­ ly a big achievement, and in its way, made our year," Arlt claimed. The district, which had put four teams in the top ten at one time dur­ ing the season (CWU, WWU, PLU and Simon Fraser), failed to glitter in a way they had shown they could, and District Seven had the last laugh on Saturday. The two State's, Adams and Western, accomplished something that has never been done — two teams from the same district tying for first. "I would have liked to have changed four weeks of training. We had no idea weather conditions would have been that good," Arl1 said. As it turned out, the Wildcats didn't use the neccesary time need ed on the Central track, which is £ track favorable to conditions on the Wisconsin at Parkside course (where the national meet was held). "We spent too much time on things we didn't need to, like runn­ ing on hills and strength training, and a lot less time on things we should have done, like run on the track," Arlt said. Arlt said the Wildcats ran a strategical race, figuring the leaders would slow down, but that never happened. "We got off to a good start and were in good position after a mile." Arlt had nothing but praise for his four seniors. "Art was very good. He was consistent and could be counted on. He will be missed. Ken will also be missed, he was a good performer, as were Tim and Steve. Steve fluctuated between our number three and eight runner all year. Heather Lucas was Central's lone women's runner, placing 78th with a time of 19:18 for five kilometers. "I know I could've run better it was sort of disappointing," Lucas said. She added that her experience at nationals as a freshman will help her in the future.
- . The Observer — Page 19 Preview Women's team looks to be quick and aggressive Central's women's hoop coach Gary Frederick hopes his team can make up with quickness and ag­ gressiveness what the Wildcats may lack in size and experience during the 1986-87 season. Only one starter returns from last year's squad that won 16 games and lost 10 and qualified for the NAIA District One playoffs — front court player Kristi Wilson. Wilson ranked fourth in scoring last year and led the team in re­ bounds. She was voted the team's Best Defensive Player and also was named the Most Valuable Player. Only three other letter winners return — forwards Kristelle Arthur and Deanna Sanders and point guard Mary Ann McCord. "We don't have a great deal of size," Frederick, beginning his fifth season, said. "But, we have more team speed and we hope to makeup for the lack of size with ag­ gressiveness. We're going to have to be street fighters." Despite the shortage of returning players, Frederick thinks the team could be improved offensively and he's sure they will be better defen­ sively. "Whether we can improve on our record, I don't know. We have a lot of new players and we'll have to see how they mesh together." Frederick had a solid recruiting season, bringing in five junior col­ lege players to fill in the gaps. Among the JC recruits are three from a Spokane Falls team that went 27-2 — forward Natalie Long, guard-forward Kathy Alley and guard Lanette Martin.

McCord will probably start at the point. Frederick said she has good ball-handling skills, has better than average speed and is a good leader. While McCord is a defensive specialist, Martin could give the 'Cats offensive firepower at guard. "She can shoot outside and with her ball-handling skills and quickness, she can go one-on-one with anyone in the district," Frederick said. Gifford averaged 7.4 points and 4.5 rebounds for the junior varsity and has improved her offensive game. Naught is a very aggresseve defensive player, but needs im­ provement in her offensive game. Elway is the best pure shooter on the team. At forward, the 'Cats have more quickness and more scoring poten­ tial, according to the CWU coach. The top candidates include Alley, Long, Sanders, Arthur, Curnett and Brenda Bongers Alley is a strak shooter. She doesn't have great speed, but makes up for it with intensity and hard work, according to Frederick. Long is only 5-6 but has excellent leaping ability. She's very strong and aggressive. "She'll make herself felt defensively and rebounding wise. Offensively, she has the ability to shoot from the perimeter or go in­ side." Sanders, a two-year letterman, is quick and a good rebounder. She is an unselfish player and doesn't shoot as much as she should. "She could be a double figure scorer for us," Frederick said. Arthur led CWU in rebounding in their first two games last year, but only averaged 10 minutes of play­ ing tome per game. A great leaper with better than average speed, she could be a force if she becomes more consistent offensively. Curnutt averaged 7.7 points for the JV's last year. She worked hard on weights in the off-season, but has been slowed by having her hand in a cast this fall. She is a good shooter. Bongers was Yakima Valley Col­ lege's most consistent player last year, according to Frederick. She has good reflexes and jumping abili­ ty. At center, Wilson will be a force. She's the 'Cats best all-around player and could also end up play­ ing a wing position. "She can pretty much do it all," Frederick said. "She can play guard, she can drive to the hoop, she can rebound and she is our best defensive player." "We've never had an all-district player, but she is capable of being the first one." Whether Wilson ends up at center or forward will depend on the pro­ gress of the other players at those positions. Kim Stevens and freshmen Misty Fenner and Colleen Corwin will also be looking for playing time at center. Stevens, the daughter of Washington State University coach Len Stevens, played two years at Fort Steilacoom CC, where she played outside. "She's capable of being an inside threat because she can handle the ball. She's not afraid to throw her body around inside and she gets good position on the boards," Frederick said.

Business rate $3.75 Kris Morgan and Randy Talvi at 150 — earned All-American honors. Both wrestlers placed third. M«fgan has completed his eligibility and is now a CWU football and basketball cheerleader. Talvi, who had one year left, has transfer­ red to Alaska Pacific and will com­ pete and help coach the first-year program in Anchorage. Ford is being somewhat more cautious this time around, but the former CWU 118-pound national champion still sees bright things ahead for the Wildcats. "We have more experience in the upper weights this year," Ford said. "We're not just only going to be tough in the lower weights. We should have a better balanced team." "You can't lose guys like we did last year (to injuries) and not feel it," Ford said. "No one is ever 100 per­ cent Everyone wrestles with in­ juries, but if we can stay close (to 100 percent), wh should improve on last year's finish." Among the injured in *1985-86 were 126-pounder Lenal Brinson and 1985 Ail-American Mark Peter­ son. Brinson wrestled in one tourna­ ment and one dual and posted a 4-1 record, the lone loss coming on an injury default. Ford had called Brin­ son a potential national champion before he injured his foot. Peterson, CWU's team captain the past two seasons, placed sixth in the national tournament at 126 pounds in 1985. Last year, injuries limited him to 16 matches and forc­ ed him to drop out after one match (an overtime loss) at the national tourney. Three other national meet veterans are also back for another season — Chris Mason at 118 pounds, John Sevigny at 126 and Craig Danielson at heavyweight. The upper weights have been solidified with the addition of 177-pounder Kenny Rucker, a two- time junior college national cham­ pion at North Idaho. Rucker, a former Illinois state high school champion, won't be eligible until winter quarter. As usual, the 'Cats are solid in the lower weights. Mason posted a 19-10 record, won the NAIA District One and Two title and won two matches at na­ tionals last year, but will be in a bat­ tle for his life to retain the 118 spot with Chris Riley, who had a 6-4 record. "They are very similar and are very comparable," Ford said. "They both have good technique and have the potential to earn Ail-American honors." Another solid wrestler at 118 is freshman Mike Graham from Elma, a two-time state placer and former state champion who placed sixth in the Greco-Nationals. "He's going to be solid," Ford said. At 126, all bets are off if Brinson stays healthy. "He will be on of the top-ranked 126-pounders in the na­ tion,' Ford said. "He's a very sound wrestler, both mentally and physically." At 134, Sevigny, who compiled a 15-12 record in his freshman season, Peterson and Matt Swayne, dropping down from 142 pounds, will be looking to earn the starting • berth. Sevigny, who lost two straight matches at nationals in the 126-pound division, has matured. "He's no longer.a freshman," Ford said. "He's bigger and stronger and he's matured mentally as well." Peterson tore ligaments at na­ tionals after being seeded fifth, but has been training all summer. With a 38-23 career record, he could end up among the Top 10 all-time career winners for CWU with a solid senior season. Swayne wrestled at 142, 150 and 158 last year, and compiled a 1-11 record. A return to his own weight could make a big difference in his record. The 142 weight bracket promises to be one of the toughest and one of the most competitive, according to Ford. Among the candidates are Ken Sroka, Eric Idler, Bob Behrens and possibly Swayne. Sroka was injured most of the season last year and struggled to a 10-11 record, but has excellent credentials. Idler posted a 6-5 record, while Behrens, a former state champ at Ephrata, redshirted. At 150, the departure of Talvi has left the spot open, and Jeff Birbeck has the inside track. Birbeck posted a 15-12 record at the University of Montana in 1984-85. At 158, Ford is counting on former state place winner Jimmie Dillingham to fill the void created by Morgan's graduation. Dillingham, CWU's starting tailback in the fall, hasn't wrestled in three years. "He has good basics plus good strength, quickness, and balance and he should be able to get right back on track," Ford said. At 168, the incumbent Dwight Bishop will be challenged by two more football players. Defensive backs Terry Logan and Marlin Johnson will contend. Rucker will hold down the 177-pound position. "He's very strong, very well portioned, agile, quick with good mobility. He has all the tools and he knows what it takes to be a national champion," Ford said. At 190, Bob Halvorson, Bill Rudolph and Tim Paudler are in the running for the starting nod. At heavyweight, Danielson won one match at nationals last year, and the "Mountain" should im­ prove on last year's mark of 9-13. "Right now, he's rated as the top heavyweight in the state of Washington," Ford said. Central's season kicks off Nov. 22 when Ford takes his team to the PLU Tournament. — contributed by Sports Information Director Bob GuptiU Swimmers set to return to action By DAMON STEWART Staff Writer The CWU men's and women's swim teams get back into action to­ day after nearly two weeks away from competition. The 'Cats play host to Whitman College in the Nicholson Pavilion pool. The meet gets underway at 4 p.m. Prior to the meet, time trials will be held for Central swimmers not participating in the meet. The time trials begin at 2:30 p.m. Central last saw action against Oregon State and Highline Com­ munity College on Nov. 7. Central swimmers dominated both meets. The annual CWU relays were held Nov. 8, with Central's men edging Puget Sound, and the CWU women iiiiHiiiiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiisiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiieiiiiig iiiiHBiiiiiiiiHiimiiiimimiiitiiiniiiHiiitiiiiiimiiiiiMiimiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiimitii miuiiiiil finishing second behind Washington State. Central assistant coach Lori Clark says the Whitman meet will be a low-key affair. "We are giving kids a chance to swim who might not or­ dinarily swim in bigger meets," Clark said. "But we are not letting up in our training. We are keeping the yardage up." Not much is known about this year's edition of the Whitman swim team, although, in recent years, they have sent a few swimmers to the national meet. Central will be placing student coaches Rob Phelan and David Wright in charge. Phelan will coach the women, while Wright will take care of the men. Central sees its next action Dec. 5-6 at the Pacific Lutheran Invita­ tional in Tacoma.
