* D H Observer Income tax assistance page 2 Thursday, January 19,1989 Central Washington University Vol. 7 No. 12 Financial aid requirements may change by DAINA MURRAY Staff Writer Good news for financial aid re­ cipients —they could be receiving more money as early as next fall, said Mary James, local Higher Education Coordinating (HEC) board representative. The HEC board has proposed revisions in the Washington State Need Grant program "to more ade­ quately reflect the needs of a chang­ ing student population while con­ tinuing to target money to very low income individuals," according to a HEC board report. James said the proposed revisions would raise current state appropria­ tions from 24 percent of die state general fund (or $5.1 million) to 35 percent (or $9 million). Money for the general fund comes from a pool of all the tuition and fee money from all public higher-education institutions in Washington. The 24 percent allocation toward state need grants was created in 1969 when it was estimated that 24 percent of all students attending public higher-education institutions were considered "needy", James said. The HEC board has concluded, after a 14 month analysis of public colleges and universities in Wash­ ington, that the current estimate of "needy" students is closer to 35 percent. ^ Revisions in the need grant pro­ gram would take the form of a base grant for all students with an ex­ pected family contribution of less than $900 (or less than $20,000/year family income), and grants for stu­ dents with special situations that are Central reflects on... I Chris Marshall (left) Wendy Cochran (right) not currently covered by the Wash­ ington State Need Grant. The maximum base grant would be "no less than 15 percent of the cost of attendance," according to the HEC board report. Additionally, students with spe­ cial situations would receive addi­ tional grant money. Four areas were identified—part- time students, fifth-year eligibility, a modest child care allowance for single parents and increasing the grant amount for students who wish to attend more expensive private colleges and universities. The first priority would be those with family contributions of $900 or less, who would receive 15 per­ cent ofthecost of attendance. When all those students have been served, the next step would be to increase the base amount to 20 percent of the cost of attendance. The last people to receive a grant would be those with an expected family contribu­ tion greater than $900. James said she is sure the base grant will pass, but she is unsure about the other proposals. Improvements in the need grant program are just one of many pro­ posals outlined in the HEC board's master plan for the 1989-91 bien- nium, which it brought before the Senate Higher Education Commit­ tee in Olympia last week. Otherproposedlegislation include faculty salary increases, increased funding per student, development of new and/or expanded branch campuses, higher education assess­ ment and employee evaluations for graduates, higher enrollment lids and "freezing" of current tuition and fees. Governor Booth Gardner should be signing anything that passed in June or July, James said. Items that pass will be imple­ mented in either the 1989-90 or 1990-91 academic year. grants Central $2500 by MIKE BUSH MANAGING EDITOR For the large part of most college students politically-aware lives, only one name has been associated with the title of President of the United States — Ronald Reagan. Tomorrow, Reagan will step down and hand that title over to a fresh, yet familiar face, that of George Bush. Reagan, what many experts have termed a "product of the media," has been more than a leader. In the past eight years, he has become a symbol of the United States on the same level as Lady Liberty and the bald eagle! This extremely visible com­ mander-in-chief also has a very visible second half, as Nancy Re­ agan came to the forefront, first redecorating the White House, then heading the "Just Say No" anti-drug campaign, until finally playing an intricate part in the hiring and firing of high-level cabinet officials. Bush, on the other hand, does not have the widespread media adora­ tion the president has enjoyed throughout his term. His wife, and soon to be first lady, Barbara Bush, is a long stretch apart from her predecessor, as she has described herself as one who shuns high fashion and is content to stay in the background to support her hus­ band. . In President Reagan's farewell address on Jan. 13, he proudly told a nation of television viewers, "My friends, we did it." Did President Reagan do it? Will President Bush be able to do it better, or are we looking forward to four years just like the last eight? What do the students and faculty at Central Washington University think? "Reagan was good for the coun­ try in some ways and not good in others. He was good to bring con­ fidence to our country when we really needed it. In a lot of ways, though, I think he was such a good actor that he clouded the real is­ sues and tried to hide behind them. As for Bush, I hope he surprises me. I'm not expecting a lot of great things, but if he can keep the coun­ try from falling apart, I think he'll be doing a good job." Todd Adkisson senior, education "Reagan did a lot of overseas work to build relationships with other countries. Not necessarily always good, though. Like Libya, with the bombing — he showed them that we won't be pushed around." Brent Allen soph., law and justice "Unlike Carter, he put his money where his mouth is. He strength­ ened the country by bringing it together, bringing it closer. Bush will be different because he has that stigma of being just another Reagan. I think he'll want to get away from that. He'll try to get his own programs going so he can say 'Yeah, I was on Reagan's team, but this is my administration now.'" Chris Marshall junior, law and justice "I see Reagan standing for a lot of war, a lot of secrecy in the gov­ ernment. I also haven't seen a lot of progress in the past eight years. Reagan said he was trying to get rid of secrecy in government, but then comes Oliver North. I see Bush as a small imitation of Re­ agan. Bush used to be head of the CIA — How can you trust someone like that, someone you know will screw us over?" Wendy Cochran freshman, undecided "I was young, so it didn't affect me too much. I liked Reagan's defen­ sive plans — I like a defensive America. Bush will be about the same as Reagan. He'll just continue Reagan's plans. Hopefully, we'll have better picks in four years." Kathy Sample freshman, drama "How he's remembered depends on his successor, Bush, and on those who follow in the next 20 years. I have the opinion that the Reagan years set back the country seriously in a number of areas and it will be very difficult for us to recover from that setback. He set back civil rights and race relations to the point where, I think, 20 years from now, we'll be back to the point we were at eight years ago. The area I think the most damage has been done, and incidentally, I think damage has been done in lots of areas, is in the budget for defense. I think Reagan has succeeded in militarizing the United States to a degree that I wouldn' t have believed ' possible. Reagan's great success is that he was nice looking and that he looked presidential, talked presidential and was photogenic, 'media-genic' I guess is the popular term. Whether he'll be seen as a great president, that's impossible to say. I don't know.1'' Daniel Ramsdell professor of history, CWU JENNY MATHEWS Staff Writer Kevin Simmons and Todd Pow­ ell will soon receive hands-on expe­ rience thanks to a $2,500 grant from HESCO, a new company in Everett. The two Central students will be testing a newly-invented device for about a month. Simmons, a mechanical engi­ neering technology student, and Powell, a power technology major, will be testing a device that func­ tions as both a motor and a pump. The device operates as a motor when power is put into it, providing a high pressure flow of fluid. As a pump the device takes in fluid and produces power. HESCO is a new business de­ veloped in what is known as an "incubator." The incubator is an organization set up by the new company' s local community as help. It provides the company with space, some management and mar­ keting aid so the company can start up smoothly. Professor Walter Kaminski, head of the mechanical engineering pro­ gram, sums up the idea by saying the incubator actually "hatches new businesses." The $2500 grant from HESCO will be divided between the me­ chanical engineering program and power technology program headed by Professor Robert Wieking. The tests that Simmons and Powell will conduct on the motor- pump are to determine its endur­ ance, performance and efficiency. There also will be work in design improvement and finding market­ ing applications. Essentially, ac­ cording to Kaminski, the job of the university is to "make sure it works like they (HESCO) think it does. If we want to make any improve­ ments, we can." The tests will take place in the power technology lab on campus. Wieking and Kaminski will be in charge of the tests and experiments. If things go well in the first month, there may be some phase two test­ ing, meaning more work from HESCO. Kaminski sees the grant as an opportunity to attract more stu­ dents to the power and industrial technology program. "This has pretty good potential for us. What it does is allows two students to work with real equipm mt and get paid." Testing should begin within the next two weeks.

Many students have problems fill­ ing out tax return forms. Central offers a tax assistance program for students who need help filing. The Volunteer Income Tax Assis­ tance program helps students with tax returns. The VITA program is held in room 104 in the Shaw-Smyzer Hall on Mondays from 7-9 p.m. and on Saturdays 9-11 a.m.. The volunteers are students who have taken special topics in taxa­ tion. The VITA program is coordinated with the Internal Revenue Service. Deborah Medlar, Assistant Pro­ fessor of the Department of Ac­ counting at Central, said when you come for assistance with your tax return, you should bring your 1099 and W-2 tax forms with you. If you do not have the tax forms the forms will be provided for you. Medlar said, "It is simple and only takes about 30 minutes," Medlar said, "students are real happy to help." According to Medlar not enough people are using this helpful pro­ gram. The program will run from Janu­ ary 5, through April 17. There is a two day extension because the regu­ lar due date of April 15, falls on a Saturday. There are some things to consider when filing a tax return. Students receiving scholarships after August 16, 1986, should be aware that part of their scholarship may be taxable. Scholarship pay­ ments made for things other than tuition, course fees, books, supplies and equipment is taxable income, says the IRS. The tax packages that you receive from the IRS contain envelopes and a preprinted label with the taxpayer's name, address and social security number. If you need to make a correction, make it directly on the label. The label is designed to accelerate the processing and also speed up the issuing of your refund check. It also helps to file your return early. You are less likely to make mistakes and you may also be more relaxed, says the IRS. You may even get your refund faster if you have one coming. If you do expect a refund and it does not come within the allotted time of eight weeks after the return has been filed, then contact the IRS by calling toll free, 1-800-554-4477. Make sure to have a copy of your completed tax return to provide all necessary information that the IRS will need. You should also double-check to make sure you have signed the re­ turn. If you do not receive a tax return form, you can pick one up in the li­ brary on campus or the public li­ brary in town, at your local bank and post office. If you do need help or have any questions go to the VITA programs in Shaw-Smyzer. The volunteers are knowledgeable and more than happy to assist you. If nothing else remember these tax tips from the IRS. Use the peel- off label and pre-addressed return envelope. Double-check yourmath. Use the correct tax table and sign and date your return.

According to the New England Journal of Medicine, "The consumption of as little as one or two fish dishes per week may be of preventive importance in relation to coronary heart disease." Fish are a leaner protein source than many animal foods and, although protein levels and types may vary among fish, all fish provide high levels of high- quality protein. Fish are a good source of B vitamins they also provide minerals such as calcium, potassium, and phosphorus. Only its iron content is lower than in meats. Fish is also low in sodium and is more easily digested than most meats. Increased consumption of fish will 1) significantly lower fat consumption, 2) lower saturated fat intake, and 3) lower cholesterol intake. ARMY ROTC News News News Thursday Januaiy 19,1989 Nearly four weeks after a massive oil spill in Grays Harbor, the damage is being felt as far north as Vancouverlsland. Officials cannot yet say what the extent of the damage along the Canadian coastline is, but they said the spill will take a definite toll on crabbing and other fishing in British Columbia. The Canadian government plans to go through international channels to recover damages from Sause Broth­ ers Towing, the company responsible for the Dec. 23 accident. George Bush, who moves into the White House tomorrow, will be welcomed on inaguration day with a $25 million gala party. Com­ pared with past inagurations, Bush's will be the most elaborate ever. Ronald Reagan's cost $20 million in 1985 and $15.5 million in 1981, while Jimmy Carter's cost only $3.5 million in 1977. "I have no apologies for the way we're doing it," said Bush, "the country deserves a celebration every four years." Officially listed as questionable for Sunday's Super Bowl, San Francisco wide receiver Jerry Rice, according to head coach Bill Walsh, will be fine for the game. Rice, who has been selected for the Pro Bowl and has been a star in the playoffs with five touchdowns in two contests, sprained his right ankle in a practice session Monday.

Bilyeu, a professor of Spanish at Central, received an award at the annual Washington Association of Foreign Language Teachers conference in Yakima. He was awarded a certificate for his continued notable service in the association. Bilyeu has been with the association for 18 years. "I imagine the reason I received this award for continued service was the 18 year intern I've been active with the association and they know I always attend meetings and participate in all the meetings and occasionally present papers or in­ troduce a section," said Bilyeu. Bilyeu was on the executive board for three years, serving as the president for one year. There is one side note to Bilyeu winning the award. He was not present at the award presentation meeting. Bilyeu said that he was totally unaware that he was going to be presented an award. Bilyeu has been nominated twice for teacher of the year by his col­ leagues, once at the University of Colorado, Boulder Colo, and here at Central. Actually Bilyeu did not declare a Spanish major until he was a senior at the University of Colorado. "I started out as a music major and a math major. I had as many credits in Spanish and a fine profes­ sor who urged me to go to graduate school in Spanish." Bilyeu started his major teach­ ing experience at Purdue Univer­ sity, W. Layfayette, Ind. and then moving on to the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colo. Bilyeu come to Central in 1970 as the new chairman in the Depart­ ment of Foreign Languages. "A friend of mine had a friend teaching here and came to an asso­ ciation meeting at Denver. This friend called me and said their look­ ing for a chairman at CWU State College and said would you object if I gave her your name?" said Bi­ lyeu. Bilyeu did not object and was hired as the new chairman. He served as chairman from 1970-78.

One week added to vacation * by JENNY MATHEWS Staff Writer During discussion about start­ ing classes one week early next year professor Betty Evans said, "I have an idea! In order to clarify put the bloody thing on the black­ board and then we'll know!." After much discussion, many questions, and numerous explana­ tions the members decided the 1989- 90 school year will begin Septem­ ber 21. Winter break will be three weeks long and start six days earlier, with students returning January 2. The schedule change will have no effect on Summer quarter. Approval of the proposal was not unanimous. Despite repeated explanations of how the new sched­ ule will operate, there were several nays. There was some concern that the earlier timing of the school year may affect summer quarter. Public schools end later and many summer quarter students are public school teachers. According to a letter by Don Schliesman, dean of undergraduate studies, there are several benefits to an early start. Students will be able to find Christmas jobs sooner, substantial fuel savings, savings in the athletic budget for the care of football and volleyball players, and savings in the library. The library uses less employees over breaks. Other events at the meeting in­ cluded the appointment of profes­ sor Philip Backlund as the faculty legislative representative. Back­ lund will serve as a "united voice" for Central during the legislative session in Olympia. President Don Garrity gave his President's Report. He stressed the importance of year's legislative session and urged students to keep an eye on the rising cost of tuition. • • 0 0 0 9 0 0 0 0 • • • • ••••/ I • • • « • ••••••••••• • •••••••••••••» • •••••••••••••••••• • • • •••••••••• • ••••• o • »jl i* • • • • • • • • ••••• • • • • • • • t • • ' • • • « »••••••••« »••••••• • •••••• • • • • • " • • .

The Observer—Page 6 Thursday, January 19,1989 Opinions Parental guidance Ode to hicks in the SUCKS suggested by SUSAN MONAHAN News Editor While attempting to watch a Central basketball game, I noticed there were several unsupervised grade-school-age children there. Throughout the game, these children were free to run up and down the bleachers, nearly wiping out an unsuspecting woman returning to her seat. They also yelled obscenities at the referees and opposing team, and were otherwise generally obnoxious. When the opposing team was shooting a free throw during the first half, these youngsters yelled things I cannot repeat in print. I was bothered by the distraction and first won­ dered where these children's parents were and then secondly, where was security. If parents want to bring their children to a game, great—we appreciate the support—but make them sit in a seat with their folks. One way the college could solve the problem is to disallow children under the age of 13 into a game without parental supervision, and make the kids sit with mom and/or dad. The alternate is to lose fans or possibly be sued if the child hurts himself jumping off the bleachers. By MARK WAVRA Staff Writer "Where are you from?" "Bellevue. How about you?" "Ephrata." "Ephrata! Ha! And where in the heck is Ephrata?" Why is it that whenever a person mentions that they are from a "small town" they are treated like a leper? Is it all that bad to grow up outside a metropolitan area? I, speaking from personal experience, think not. In fact, I'll go so far as to say that it is just as beneficial, if not better, to grow up as a hick. For one thing, small towns tend to be surrounded by nature. You don't have to go far to be in a place where you can't be seen, heard or bothered. In fact, you can walk for miles in one direction without having to contend with anything except a few barbed-wire fences and some rambunctious livestock. Rural life also presents the opportunity to experience nature firsthand. If you have never helped deliver calves or piglets or watched geese migrate through your neighbor's back yard, you really don't know what you're missing. It tends to make a person a bit more of a sentimental nature freak ("Oh, look at the duckies..."). Smaller towns don't have to battle with a lot of metropolitan inconveniences. Traffic jams and backups aren't too prevalent in three-stoplight towns. The only air pollution in a rural community is aromatic hints from dairy cows blown into town by our local chinooks. Surprising to big-city visitors, our water tastes like water and not chlorine. Noise pollution is non-existent in a town that rolls up its sidewalks at 6 p.m. And tourists — they merely pass through and take up space at our local drive-ins. Fashions, like tourists, just blow through. Not many sensationalistic buying fren­ zies seize hold of local pocket books — unless, of course, Levi's action-slacks are 50 percent off at J.C. Penney. Shopping malls, parkades and over-commer­ cialized fast-food restaurants are just hogwash. I can also safely say that we would be the last target of a Soviet nuclear attack. There is also the "home" factor. You've walked down every street and alley in town so you know the entire place inside-out and backward. Almost everyone knows your name and you know theirs. It's really handy to know someone's name when you don't have exact change for a purchase, "Ah, come on Maybelle, a few pennies out of the till ain't gonna kill you," and especially when you're getting pulled over, "Oh, come on Bud, didn't you do a little bit of screwing around when you were young?" You don't get to see quite as many people in a small town, so you get to know the ones you see really well. Best of all — you can always get out of town in a hurry. There are numerous "disadvantages" that I have inten­ tionally neglected, but that is because I consider them to be advantages. This is in response to the excessive condemnation I and other hicks have endured from city-slickers. To all the people that enjoy poking fun at small towns, what in the heck are you doing in Ellensburg, Wash.? Letters ftrtel'StsKiS? L ir | — ' '•'ssssSsnSin Letters to Bravo forum, but smoke in your own space To the forum editor: We congratulate you on your choice of a very controversial sub­ ject to begin the "Forum" commen­ tary. Despite the statement of the to­ bacco industry, smoking is hazard­ ous both to smokers and non-smok­ ing bystanders. The surgeon gen­ eral of the U.S. reports that 375,000 deaths are caused by smoking each year in the U.S. alone. These deaths are preceded and accompanied by the tremendous pain, discomfort and grief of the smokers and their loved ones. Any rules which will assist smokers in curbing their habits should not be looked on as an in­ convenience, but as an incentive to quit. Individuals must adopt many self- controlling behaviors so as to be thoughtful of and courteous to oth­ ers. Other behaviors must be adopted so as not to injure others. People do not speak loudly in churches or classrooms, cut into lines, run indoors, intentionally run stop signs or take many other ac­ tions which would be discourteous or potentially harmful to others. We learn to curb our selfish, childish impulses as we age. Smoking is not a childish impulse, but is nonethe­ less a behavior which should cour­ teously be restricted to homes where permission to smoke has been ex­ pressly requested and granted. Many smokers attempt to be courteous to non-smokers. But smoke in one room, however courteously ex- of smokers, but to benefit the gen- pelled, is harmful and offensive to eral public and it does just that, as many people even in the next room, do laws governing speed limits, The law restricting smoking was pollution control, food additives and not created to infringe on the rights manufacturing safety. We choose to live in a civilized society, and a of home economics ban against smoking in public places Carolyn Schactler, asstistant supports such a choice. professor of home economics Signed, Deborah L.

"How can this be?" I ask myself. This toll is an institution in my life. Every morning as I run to my first class, I hear it toll eight times. On my way to my second class, I hear it toll nine times. And as I walk as fast as humanly possible with an extra-big cup of coffee from the SUB cafeteria sloshing on my wrist to my third class, I hear it go the full 11 rounds. Considering the number of times I hear it each day, how can there be so many people that do not know a bell tower functions on campus? After much speculation, I found the answer to my query in the fact that I have been running to these classes be­ cause I am late. The bell tolls the top of the hour, two or three minutes after the top of the hour. With this in mind, let's examine th tone of the bell—tone being used h the sense of disposition, rather thai musical quality. As the bell tolls now, it comes acros to the scurrying students as saying "Ha-ha! Caught you late again, yoi toad! If you go into that room now you'll disrupt the whole class ant your professor will be bugged in th» worst possible way!" If it were on time, it would reflec accuracy on the part of the school, an( the message would be one of: "Leave a few minutes earlier and you won' irritate your professors!" If the clock were to go to the othe] extreme and be a few minutes early we would get an even more positive message: "Pick up the step a bit— you're almost there!" Apparently keeping time is a low priority. I can't pretend to be offendec by this, since I'm a compulsively late person, but I do feel guilty that those who are consistently on time ma never experience the joy of hearing the resonant BONG!

Not to worry, though, there are still some package deals available if you're willing to pay a little more. If Fort Lauderdale has always been your dream, maybe it's time to wake up. Oh, you can still go, for about $500 per person, for air fare and hotel. That doesn't include food or entertainment. Besides, the offi­ cials in Lauderdale have really tried to stop the party atmosphere—no more drinking on the beaches. If you're more concerned with exactly how much you'll be spend­ ing, then maybe a cruise is for you. For about $800, per person in a four person cabin, you can tour the Car­ ibbean. That includes round trip air fare, seven nights at sea, and all your meals and entertainment. You buy drinks and souvenirs. Norwegian Cruise Line offers brand name entertainment, and even has theme tours—the 50s, the Wild West, Soap Operas — which in­ clude celebrities associated with the theme. You can also save a little money, and cruise the Mexican Riviera, round trip air fare from Seattle to San Diego is included and costs about $668 per person. And don't think cruises are just for old­ sters! They offer separate tours for the younger crowd. Many people who haven't already been, want to visit Hawaii, although, it's usually more for families than students. A package deal, which usually includes car rental, will run you about $449 to $475. Be warned, however, the entertainment can get pretty expensive. Good meals at a reasonable price are rare, but can be found at the Hard Rock Cafe. It's the souvenirs — everything from the traditional T-shirts to bomber jackets — that will cost you. But, if Paul Hogan is your dream date, you're sure to find plenty of aussy men at the Hard Rock in Hawaii. Mexico, which has often been considered the inexpensive vaca­ tion, isn't as good a price as it used to be. For about the same money, you can take advantage of some really great deals through Eastern and Continental airlines and see the Bahamas. About $476per person in a triple room, will get you air fare, hotel and transits. Bring your own mixer, though, because a six-pack of Coke could be as much as $17 in the grocery store. For the student who loves to ski, spring break might be the time to do it, but it's not easy to guarantee snow. Your best bet is probably Montana. And there are package deals still available if you take the train. Five days of lift tickets, five days' breakfasts, five nights' ac­ commodations and round trip train tickets for four people is about $300 per person. Don't be discouraged if you're really on a tight budget because Reno and Lake Tahoe, popular vacation sites for students from Washington, are still quite reasonable. For ex­ ample, if you leave mid-week, round trip air fare Seattle to Reno with two nights accommodations is only about $169. If these prices are still a little high, try taking the train to Califor­ nia. It's about $149 round trip and you'll be in L.A. in just 11/2 days. If a weekend trip is all you're looking for, drive to V ancou ver, B.C. Take at least $50 per night for a hotel. Something else close by that you might enjoy, is the highly-ac­ claimed Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, Ore. Or, if you're like me, you'll stretch the budget to its limit and see how much fun you can have with a sun-lamp and a wading pool in the back yard. Special Thanks to: Global Travel Service 434 N.

The program begins today and will run through Jan. 29. The festi­ val features a variety of fun-filled and educational activities that will have a little something for every­ one. Starting tonight and running until Saturday, is an all-student drama production titled The Thin Line. The play is written, directed, and performed by students. Suspense is the key word for this play, as it deals with an original schizophrenic theme. Admission for the drama is free and it begins at 8 p.m. in the Tower Theatre. Highlighting the week is a breathtaking performance by the Peking Acrobats. Their spectacular show of tumbling, balancing, and acrobatic technique is open to the public and starts Sunday at 7 p.m. This acrobatic team has received raving reviews at every stop of their world tour. It is a rare appearance you won't want to miss. Tickets are available at Shapiro's, and Berry's for $4.50 for students and $5.50 for general admission. In conjunction with Central's Classic film series, feature films from the Vision and Voices series will be shown everyday during the noon hour in the SUB. Student and faculty art work will also be on display daily. In addition, guest lecturers, poetry and literature readings, dance Tina Jones and Troy BlendeU rehearsing for the student-produced drama "The Thin Line." mmmmm Discounted vacation packages offer Central students a world of traveling choices for spring break. Scales presents the other side of Shakespeare productions, slide demonstrations and music performances through­ out the festival will illuminate the SUB. Festival of the Aits is a yearly event celebrating the fine arts at Central. It is designed to provide students, faculty members and re­ gional artists a forum to display their creativity. All events are open for the entire public to experience the aura of the arts. Northwest actor and director Keith Scales will present a free Jan. 24 lecture/performance atCWU entided "This Ever-Living Man: The Life and Times of William Shakespeare." His 4 p.m. Tuesday presentation in Hebeler Auditorium is sponsored by the CWU Douglas Honors Col­ lege. The lecture is part of the "The Inquiring Mind" speakers program underwritten by the Washington Commission for the Humanities. Scales, bom and raised in Lon­ don, has been busy in the Portland and Seattle theater scenes for 20 years as an actor, director and organ­ izer. He has acted in more than one hundred plays and has directed more than thirty. Using modem readings as well as selections from Shakespeare's own work, Scales recreates the life and times of the English bard. His lec­ tures are based on extensive research and are intended to distinguish be­ tween fact and fiction. "I try to stay neutral and to present the truth," he said. "Most of the information is complimentary." Scales' performance also sheds light on die people who played a part in Shakespeare's life, including Christopher Maiiow and Queen Elizabeth I. Scales chose the lecture title from a line in Shakespeare's "Henry V." *1116 titles reflect the changeless presence of Shakespeare in our lives, Scales said. "In many ways he's not dead, while the actors and audiences of his time are lost to history." Scales credits part of Shakespeare's universal appeal to the playwright's colorful descrip­ tions of family life and relation­ ships. "His characters are as familiar to us as our own family," Scales said. "We have an instantaneous feel for his characters, since we all have relatives." Besides Shakespeare's art, Scales will discuss his domestic concerns, political preferences and financial and professional success. "Shakespeare was a public fig­ ure in his time and at die top of his career," Scales said. "He was well- known, very good with his money and for about 20 years was riding a wave of popularity." The rumors that Shakespeare's work was authored by another writer started in about 1856 and included several candidates, includ­ ing Sir Francis Bacon. While ex­ plaining the controversy in his lec­ ture, Scales contests that Shakespeare was the sole author of those works which earned his repu­ tation as the greatest writer of Eng­ lish literature. "The texture of our civilization would be that much less rich if Shakespeare had never lived," Scales said. ft m ^ The Observer - Page 9 Thursday, January 19, 1989 Drury shoots for 1992 Olympics By DAINA MURRAY Staff Writer When you tune in to the next Summer Olympics, you might see a familiar face on the screen. A Cen­ tral Washington University student and former Wildcat swimmer has been invited to try out for the U.S. Olympic Team in the modern pen­ tathlon event. Tom Drury will be flown to the Olympic Training Complex in San Antonio, Texas for a week-long evaluation session in June. If cho­ sen, he will train with the Olympic team for the Goodwill Games in Seattle next year. International competition will follow, and finally the '92 Summer Olympics. For those of you who have never heard of the pentathlon, it consists of five events — fencing, pistol shooting, English riding, swimming and running. The sport has tradi­ tionally been dominated by the Europeans. The Olympic Committee would like to change that fact by pumping a whopping $3 million into the pentathlon program. The Pentath­ lon Chapter is currently recruiting talented young athletes like Drury with good swimming and running backgrounds. The philosophy of the Olympic Committee, Drury said, is that "rid­ ing, fencing and shooting can be learned in a relatively short time, but the natural God-given talent that it takes to be a good runner or swim­ mer is something you can't train for — it takes years to develop." He will start from scratch in two areas, fencing and riding. Of the two, he is most worried about learn­ ing how to fence. The key to success in riding, he said, is merely finding a good horse. "There are horses that will pull you through the ring — you really don't have to do much but stay on the thing," he said. Cross-training is nothing new to Drury, who has competed and placed in many triathlons, such as the Wash­ ington State Championship last sum­ mer. In that event he placed 1 Oth out of about 400 men, even beating out a couple of professionals. It was after a triathlon last sum­ mer that he was approached by a delegate from the Pentathlon Chap­ ter who asked him to try out for the U.S. Olympic Team. Swimming is Drury's specialty, a sport he has competed in most of his life. His parents first sent him to a swim club during his elementary school years to keep him away from the television set in the summer. He went on to become a state champion his junior and senior years at Shorewood High School and an Ail-American three years in a row. After graduating in 1981, he went to the University of Florida on a swimming scholarship. Florida was a swimming powerhouse that boasted three world-record holders. He was one of two freshmen re­ cruited that year. Training was intense, according to Drury. He practiced five hours a day during the school year, and six to eight during the summer in prepa­ ration for the World Games trials. He decided to quit the team just before the meet. "When I left Florida, I was so disenchanted with swimming. I was burned out," he said. He spent the next year red-shirt­ ing at the University of Washing­ ton, a team that was less than inspi­ rational for Drury. "The UW program was a big let­ down from Florida's," he admitted. So, when the offer came to work on a fishing boat up in Alaska, he accepted, leaving behind a promis­ ing career in the water for one on top of it. He worked seven days a week, 18 hours a day, for four months at a time. He said that three years and many crabs later, going back to school seemed very appealing. "I'd left swimming with a bad taste in my mouth. I wanted to go to a small school that didn' t give schol- ^i§§ gglgpgg. .... ppS : : m&v.

I picked Central." Drury was an asset to the power­ ful CWU men's swim team. He was the national champion his first year in the mile, and has placed high at nationals in other events both years. His name can be found among the other school record- holders in men's swimming on a board displayed in Nicholson Pa­ vilion. Now that his eligibility is used up, Mia.

Ruby Across from Safeway The Observer - Page 10 Thursday, January 19,1989 Central back in sync for winter quarter Student experiences Japanese culture By GEORGE EDGAR Contributing writer It's that time of year again. A time when many students put aside their inhibitions and make total fools of themselves in front of friends, fam­ ily, and faculty. It's that time during winter quar­ ter when students gather in an audi­ torium to raise hell and get relief from the academic rat-race. It's time for the Lip Sync the closest thing to a sellout concert Central can get without going in the red. The sync has been a mainstay at Central for some time and provides some of the best entertainment this side of a beating Western in hoops at Nicholson Pavilion. The purpose of this article is not to persuade you to attend the Lip Sync, you should do that anyway, it is to push you to enter the contest. And with a little bit of advice, you could be a winner or at least save your dignity. Let this story serve as a guide to all you daring to enter the Feb. 3 event. Follow this advice, have some fun and save "face", all while becoming a celebrity. Learn how to dance: If you are a member of Orchesis please skip this section and move on to the next. Most of the acts in the history of the Lip Sync have had some rhythm, or have looked good faking it. If you 're lacking rhythm, go to a dance in the SUB to brush up on what little rhythm you have. Better yet, if you know someone from Orchesis, have them teach you how. But please, if you are going to dance to music while lipping it, no Michael, Janet, or any other member of the Jackson family. Be Current: "Bad" was a big hit last year, however so were the Cali­ fornia Raisins. Actually anything can be a good sync if done right. Look Outrageous: Do this only if you are not afraid to make a com­ plete fool of yourself. A classic example of this was the Village People's YMCA/Macho Man medley last year. Not only did they dress like the disco kings of the 70s, they acted like them. They performed some maneuvers, ques­ tionable in taste, that got them dis­ qualified. The crowd liked them though. Be creative and daring: There have been a lot of groups that haven't been performed because people didn't think they would go over too well with the crowds. Be bold. Do Julio Iglesias, or Kenny Rogers. How about a Cher, the crowd might appreciate your costume ideas. If you go alone, don't look stupid: Enough said. There you have it. A makeshift guide to Lip Sync success. Probably the biggest success would be if you entered it. By ERIK SOLBERG Contributing writer wrote an ar- turned it in too Many students dream of an op­ portunity to live and studyin a for­ eign land for a year. Many students dream of this opportunity but few get the chance to actually do it. Melinda McCourt, a senior at Central majoring in international business had that opportunity, spending a year at Central's sister school, Shimane University in Matsue, Japan. Even with two and a half years of studying at the Japanese language here at Central, McCourt still had a hard time with the language. "I had to carry my dictionary around with me for the first six months I was there," McCourt said. "The best way to learn Japanese is to get out and speak it." Being an international business major the trip also helped McCourt learn firsthand how businesses were run differently in Japan. "They (the Japanese) think in­ credibly different," she said. Student life in Japan was differ­ ent, too. Most college courses there meet once a week for 90 minutes and most homework is done in class. "Everybody studies, but not like we do here," McCourt said. At Japanese universities the emphasis isn't on academics, as most would belive, but instead on student clubs. "Clubs are taken very seriously. That's the student's peer group. Students don't talk with people in their classes, their friends are the ones from the clubs." McCourt said, "(however) The college you go to is very important there as far as get­ ting a job with a good company." During her stay, McCourt lived with a Japanese family and found out just how friendly the Japanese people really are. "They feel a strong sense of indebtedness. If you do something for someone they will want to do something for you," she said. When asked what she misses most about Japan she said, "the excitement of daily life there." McCourt looks forward to a re­ turn trip to Japan in a year or two for work as a graduate student. flSCUJU Special Programs presents: The Peking Acrobats Direct from the Peoples Republic of China Sunday, January 22, 7:00 p.m. Nicholson Pavilion, CUJU Tickets: $4.50 students $5.50 general Tickets Available at: Berry's.

I'm a sophomore and I live in the dorms. I have a roommate who has totally different habits than I do. She gets up early every day and makes a lot of noise. She also goes to bed early. I, on the other hand, am very busy and can't go to bed until late. I try to be quiet, but I still wake her up often. I don't know if it's to get back at me for waking her up all the time, but she is rude to all my friends when they call. This has gotten so bad that my friends won't call un­ less they are sure I'm home. The whole situation is frustrating me and I don't know what to do. Can you help? Frustrated Night Owl Dear Frustrated, One of the greatest obstacles col­ lege students face is learning to live with a variety of different people. We all bring with us a variety of different values, ideas, hopes, goals, and yes, even schedules. Attempt­ ing to mesh these differences into one happy home often leaves us with a shattered shack. One way you may be able to reconcile this conflict is to tiy putting yourself into her place and see how she may be feeling. Openly discussing your differences might also help clear the air and give you both room to build your relationship, as well as your home.

Last quarter, I moved into a house with two guys and a girl. After a few weeks in the house, I found that I was falling in love with my female roommate. I tried to put her out of my mind, but nothing works. During Winter vacation, all I did was think about her. Last Saturday night, we had aparty and became very intoxicated. In the middle of the night, I went down to her room and crawled into her bed. One thing led to another, but a good time was had by all. Now she refuses to talk to me and treats me strange. I still love her. What should I do? Smitten on Sampson Dear Smitten, While reading your letter, I no­ ticed that you didn't mention how your female roommate felt about you prior to your "night of aban­ don." This seems to be an issue present in much of your relation­ ship: lack of communication. This Mike Bush channel may have been opened and/ or altered when the two of you were under the influence of alcohol. The cost of this is confusion, embar­ rassment and possibly guilt. Since it appears that neither of you knows how the other is feeling, openly, honestly and sensitively discussing your concerns may help clear the air and clean the slate between the two of you. Even if she doesn't feel the same as you, at least you will know this and be able to move on. L.B.

Symbol for nickel COLLEGE PRESS SERVICE Solution to puzzle on page 15. Growing up in a family where sports are just slightly more impor­ tant than life itself, I naturally spend large portions of my life with the tube on ESPN and my body in front of the tube. For a change of pace, I thought it would be fun to see a live game. Paying my dollar and going to see the Wildcats play basketball, I sud­ denly realized, about four seconds into the action, why I prefer watch­ ing television. Next to me was seated a man— the exact same man who sits next to me at every sporting event—the man who yells "SHOOT!" This guy follows me everywhere. He changes clothes, of course. He even goes to the extent to change his height, weight, hairstyle and some­ times even sex, but I know it's the same fellow. At Seahawk games, he's the one telling Dave Krieg to "PASS!" and Curt Warner to "RUN!" At Mariner games, he tells the outfielders to "CATCH IT!" I've even seen him at bars, where when Mike Tyson is fighting on the big screen, he help­ fully tells Iron Mike to "HIT HIM! HIT HIM!" You know the guy—he sat next to you once, too. Maybe you know him personally. yUM4i The reason I don't like to go to games and sit next to this guy is because he makes me feel so infe­ rior. I know as much about sports as the next guy—I can debate with anyone over who the greatest quar­ terback of all time is—but I can't hold a candle to the Man. This guy is the reason certain teams win and certain teams lose. The players can hear Him way down on the diamond, field and court, yelling down advice, the advice they couldn't win without. Through my vast journalistic sensing abilities, I can tell what those athletes are thinking the moment they hear the Man yell down, over the screams of thou­ sands, from His seat out in the middle of nowhere. "CATCH IT!," he yells. And at that instant, Steve Largent's ears, the same ears that are related to the hands that will someday be in the Hall Of Fame, perk up to the Voice and sends a message to his brain that says "Golly Steve, He's cor­ rect. You should catch this ball!" First down, Seahawks. Thank you, Man. Now you can see how He is directly responsible for wins and losses. If you still fail to see the light, He, Himself, will be happy to show you, as is evident from his com­ ments after the game, especially after His team loses. "If only Carl Aaron would have grabbed that rebound," He will say, disgusted, "we would have won." And He's right—if only Carl, a man who has played countless games of basketball since shortly after birth and has scored more points than the United States owes dollars, would have listened to the Man... So next time you find yourself seated next to the Man, reach over and shake His hand, for we all owe Him an awesome debt of gratitude. Then make an effort to discreetly pour your cola into His lap—We would all thank you. Thursday, January 19,1989 The Observer— Page 12 Sports Sports Sports Sports Diving coach inspires team to improve By KEVIN DEKOSTER Contributing Writer If you have been in the upper gym of Nicholson Pavilion lately, you have seen seven individuals practicing on a trampoline in hopes of getting some respect. The seven individuals, Gitty Geisler, Barbara Gunnell, Marilyn Quinto, Tim Barlow, Kurt Fletter, Alan Lagervall and Tom Wright make up the 1989 Wildcat diving squad. The team is one of the larg­ est in the school's history and prom­ ises to help CWU's swimming and diving program maintain its national powerhouse status. However, like many other ath­ letic programs, success begins with a quality coach — and Central has one in Terry Forrey. Forrey, who started diving at the age of eight in Redmond, received a diving scholarship to Brigham Young University. Unfortunately, he broke his back in his first season with B YU, and later broke it again after recovering from the first inci­ dent. Although BYU coach Stan Curnow was willing to honor Forrey's scholarship, Forrey de­ cided that two broken backs was enough and left the diving scene for almost three years. "I never went to a diving meet, nor did I get on a diving board during those three years," Forrey said. "Basically, I got away from diving completely." Following his absence from div­ ing, Forrey took a trip to see a friend in Ellensburg, former CWU diver, Mark Donaldson. During Forrey's visit, head coach Bob Gregson (who is currently on a one-year sabbati­ cal) persuaded Forrey to give div­ ing a try at Central. "If I was going to get back into A Sea World photographer captures diving coach Tom Forrey during an exhibition this summer with the Great American High Dive Team. diving, it was necessary for diving to be enjoyable," Forrey said. "Gregson told me that there was no pressure in diving at Central and that I would be diving for the fun of it. That is just what I wanted, so I came to Central." Forrey's experience at Central proved to be successful. He placed third in the one-meter springboard competition and fifth in the three- meter springboard contest at the 1986 national meet, despite suffer­ ing his third serious back injury on Jan. 18, 1986 —just two months before the big competition. "Basically, I broke my back again at the Puget Sound meet," he said. The BYU transfer, who im­ proved on his 1986 performance with a second-place finish in the one-meter contest and third place in the three-meter competition at nationals in 1987. His perform­ ances helped the Central men's swimming and diving team to na­ tional championships in 1986 and 1987. Women win two of three in district By JON MAHN Staff Writer The Central Washington women got back on track this week by winning two out of their last three games, boosting their NAIA Dis­ trict 1 record to 5-3 and their overall record to 9-8. CWU vs. Northwest Breaking open a close game early in the second half, the lady 'Cats pulled away for a 96-63 victory over Northwest College of Kirkland at Nicholson Pavilion, Saturday night. Leading 44-37 two minutes into the second half, Central canned 19 * unanswered points and had a 27-2 '?tim. Ellen Kernan, who finished with 13 points, hit three buckets from three-point range to spark the 19-point eruption. Darci Riley came off the bench to score all 14 of her points in the second half. "We're passing better and we're getting more people open under­ neath for the easy shots and re­ bounds," Riley said. CWU vs. Pacific Lutheran Causing 21 steals, the lady 'Cats beat the Pacific Lutheran Lutes despite the first-half loss of starter Tabatha Shields Friday night. Shields, a junior guard, went out with a strained ligament. She should be back in a few weeks, according to doctors. Leading 23-22, Central scored 13 straight to build a 36-22 lead with 1:55 left in the first half. The 'Cats went into the locker room at halftime with a 40-27 lead. The Lutes, however, closed to within three at 57-54, with 9:05 left in the game. Central scored the next eight points, four by Kathy Brumley, to open an 11-point lead. Central was paced by the 17 points of center Lynda Laughery. "The team had more control, patience, and the passing game im­ proved," Laughery said. CWU vs. Seattle Wednesday, Seattle University got 30points and 13 rebounds from Michelle Hackett in the rematch of last season's co-District 1 titlists and handed the lady 'Cats a loss in a 72-66 battle. The loss spoiled a 21-point, 16- rebound effort by Central center Sonia Swan, the lone returning starter off last season's team. Ta­ batha Shields added 12 points for Central. Andrea Albenesius added 15 points and Karen Bryant 10 for Seattle. "For the three games overall, I am very proud of the way my team is playing. But we can't afford to lose anymore good players like Tabatha Shields," Head Coach Gary Frederick said. With the women's title in 1986, Central became the only school in NAIA history to win men's and women's national titles for the same sport in the same year. Forrey's experience in diving enabled him to take over as diving coach in September 1987, allow­ ing Lori Clark (head coach during Gregson's absence) to focus more on swimming. "Terry is totally involved in div­ ing," Clark said. "That is his spe­ cialty and it has worked out ex1 tremely well." Forrey dived professionally this summer with the Great American High Dive Team from San Diego. His routine included 85-foot tower dives and 50- foot fire dives where his cotton sweats were ignited as he leaped toward the pool. The stint, which included a show at the Puyallup Fair, resulted in Forney's involvement in a world record "mass dive" with 18 divers in the air at the same time. In addition to three hours of strength conditioning and 10 hours of board work per week, the diving coach has his team spend two hours every week on the trampoline. Tom Wright had a personal best score after only one month under Forrey's direction. "The trampo­ line allows the diver to work on repetitious movements more eas­ ily," Wright said. "Terry is really helpful with his instruction on the trampoline." Karen Crain, a national diver last year, said, "Terry realizes prob­ lems that occur in diving. He is a personal coach." Barbara Gunnell echoed that thought. "Terry is more than a coach, he is a friend. He helps us to remove the fear in attempting to make a difficult dive for the first time." Forrey equally praised this year's divers. "This group is dedicated and hard-working," he said. "There is a positive competition between the divers." With Alan Lagervall having al­ ready qualified for the national meet and Wright diving his best, Forrey added, "I think all seven have a good shot at making the trip to nationals this year." If the whole team qualifies, it would be the most CWU divers attending the national meet in the history of the program. There are too many variables to decide on the long-term future of CWU diving. Yet, with Central's new $3.4 million pool scheduled for completion in January 1990, and the success of this team, Forrey believes CWU should maintain the diving program for the next few years. "The swim team is good," For­ rey said. "In fact, they are great. What we need to do now is to build up the diving part of the program." Saturday's meet was the last home contest for the diving team. The national competition is sched­ uled for March 1-4 in Milwaukee.

The men's margin was only the fifth time in 331 meets that a contest has been decided by one point. The men's team, which will be without the services of two of its faster swimmers for the reaminder of the year, drove their season rec­ ord to 7-1 while the women fell to 5- 3. The men's score never varied by more than 10 points or the equiva­ lent of the points awarded for first place in one event. "The score bounced around quite a few times. It created a lot of strat­ egy changes on the part of the coaches," CWU head coach Lori Clark, who had predicted the men would win by one point, said. Central went first and second in the men's 400-yard medley relay, 200-yard butterfly and 200-yard backstroke while the Lutes swept the top two spots in the 500-yard freestyle. The Wildcats were paced by freshman Andy Platte who was victorious in the 200 butterfly (2:01.82) and was second in the 200 backstroke (2:09.42) to teammate Buzz Vickery (2:09.14). "Andy (Platte) swam the 200 (butter)fly and 200 back(stroke) within a five-minute span, so his 200 back(stroke) was a good swim considering the circumstances," Clark said. Senior Frazer MacDonnell, one of six seniors swimming in their final home meet, placed first in the 200-yard individual medley with a time of 2:06.32. Although not placing first, Clark cited the swims of two freshmen, Mike Sandbeck and Marc Vuylsteke, as exceptional. Sandbeck was second in both the 1000-yard freestyle (10:43.22), which is 40 lengths of the pool, and the 200 butterfly (2:05.58). Both times surpassed lifetime bests for Sandbeck. Vuylsteke had a lifetime best while placing second in the 200- yard breast stroke. "Marc (Vuylsteke) keeps get­ ting better each time he swims. He definitely has a good shot at mak­ ing national qualifying times in the 100 and 200 breast (stroke)," Clark said. The meet, however, came down to the 400-yard freestyle relay. Central was behind by nine points going into the final event, but pulled out first and third places to win the meet by a single point. The women's team, meanwhile, came up against a strong PLU squad. Central was led by junior Chris Hayden who had a first in the 500 freestyle (5:28.62) and a second in the 200-yard freestyle (2:01.87) as well as swimming on Central's winning 400 freestyle relay with Tyann Youngquist, Allison Walsh and Shari Mars. Hayden's times in the 500 frees­ tyle and 200 freestyle were good enough to qualify her for the na­ tional meet. Walsh was second in the 500 freestyle (5:29.02), also qualifying for the national meet. Shealso placed second in the 1000 freestyle (11:24.13) while Youngquist was second in the 50-yard freestyle (26.32) and 100-yard freestyle (56.50). Both swimmers are fresh- mmm m&m mm Following an obvious false start by Central's Scott Yates (lane 2), PLU's crowd in the background responds in protest men. Senior Audra Hammerschmidt missed qualifying for nationals by four-hundredths of a second in a second-place finish in the 200 breast stroke (2:41.52).

SFU is in Ellensburg tomorrow night for a 7:30 game at Nicholson Pavilion, while the Saints entertain CWU Saturday night in Lacey. The Wildcats overcame an eight-point, second-half deficit for a 68-65 win over St. Martin's in their last meeting Dec. 3. Central is hoping to regroup after having its seven-game win­ ning streak snapped over the week­ end by Lewis Clark State. CWU vs. Lewis Clark The Warriors won for the first time in Ellensburg since 1912 and broke a 16-game Nicholson Pavil­ ion losing streak, posting their eighth straight district triumph without a defeat. Four Lewis Clark players scored in double figures, including Mike Moscrip, who tickled the twine for 22 points. "Moscrip kills us everytime we play," Nicholson admitted. Another significant Warrior contribution came from Victor Wells. The 6-foot-5 forward scored 18 points (16 in the second half), and was a factor in LC's 39-33 rebounding edge with 15 boards. Perhaps the biggest surprise came from the Warrior's 7-foot-2 center Freik Beij, Nicholson indi­ cated. The Holland native scored 12 points and seized 10 rebounds. "His stats (on the season) are horrible, he never does much," Nicholson stated, "but the two games we've played against them, he's been all-world." Despite the loss, which broke a 17-game-home winning streak, Nicholson expressed quiet confi­ dence that his club would rebound. "We're still going to be heard from," Nicholson warned. "We're a better team than we showed to­ night." Aaron was the only Wildcat in double figures with 29 points. Dave Biwer pulled down 11 boards in the losing effort. CWU vs. Puget Sound Behind 25 points from forward Carl Aaron, CWU denied Puget Sound's Don Zech his 400th career coaching victory by a score of 77- 64. An aggressive defense was led by center Van Beard, who blocked five shots in the contest. Beard only needed two more blocks going into the contest to break Rodnie Tay lor' s single-season blocked shot record. The new record was set at 52 and Beard is continuing to build on it. A 15-0 Wildcat run midway through the second half broke open a close game and gave Central a 66- 45 advantage. "We created some excellent break opportunities and we were capitalizing," Central coach Dean Nicholson said. "Our defense was starting it (the fast break). I thought Van was a force in there. So was (Central forward Dave) Biwer. We had good team defense from every­ body." The tough defense made its presence felt in the second half, Nicholson noted, limiting UPS to 31-percent accuracy from the field.

First, the good news. The junior varsity squad hosted a pair of games this past weekend at Nicholson Pavilion. The bad news is that the younger Wildcats dropped both decisions by a total of eight points to Pacific Lutheran's junior varsity and Ya­ kima Valley Community College. CWU vs Pacific Lutheran Though four Wildcats scored in double figures, Central was not able to overcome a four-point halftime deficit in losing to the Lutes 70-65. Central center Wendy Blair tied PLU's Beth Deatherage for scoring honors with 16 points, and paced both teams with 17 rebounds. Other top Wildcat scorers in­ cluded Gretchen Chronis with 14, Dorothy Allard (12) and Desiree Sackett (11). Both teams suffered from poor shooting and an inability to protect the basketball. The Lutes made 31 of 77 from the floor, while the Wildcats managed just 26 field goals in 67 tries. PLU turned the ball over 24 times. The Wildcats were guilty of 33 miscues. CWU vs. Yakima Valley The Indians out-scored the jun­ ior 'Cats 40-28 in the second half to post a come-from-behind win. Danielle Wingerter's layup off an offensive rebound with 28 sec­ onds remaining proved to be the winning basket. Michelle Hiebert iced the win for Yakima Valley, hitting two free throws before the final buzzer. Allard had 16 points for Central. Sackett added 11. The Wildcats shot poorly once again, connecting on only 25 of 76 shots from the field. The men's junior varsity squad dropped a close decision to the Puget Sound junior varsity team, then came back to down the team from Walla Walla College on its home court Saturday. CWU vs. Puget Sound Inexperience and lack of confi­ dence proved to be fatal Thursday as the team lost, 70-66, to the UPS junior varsity squad. Ahead by one at halftime, the team only hit 39 percent of their shots from the field while UPS hit 50 percent of its shots. Brian Link led the young 'Cats with 23 points. Tim Helgeson added 18 points and seven rebounds in the effort. CWU vs. Walla Walla The junior varsity Wildcats won only their second game in 12 out­ ings when they beat the Walla Walla squad 93-75 Saturday night. "We really needed that win," head coach Jeff Olwell said. "It should give us some confidence." CWU had five players in double figures, led by Link who had 20 points. Helgeson dumped in 17 points, Brian Kinnaman added 14, Bill Tonge dropped 11 and Craig Wise had 13, along with eight as­ sists.
