Thursday February 9,1989 Central Washington University Vol. 7 No. 15 Admissions for fall '89 may close early by COLIN McNAIR Staff Writer Increasing enrollment pressure is forcing Washington suite universi­ ties to move up deadlines for appli­ cations and close admissions ear­ lier than ever before, university authorities said this week. According to James G. Pappas, dean of admissions and records at CWU, four of the six baccalaureate institutions in the state—including Central — are resorting to such actions in an attempt to control enrollments. The others are The Evergreen State College, the Uni­ versity of Washington and Western Washington University. Central has. been receiving an increasing number of applications from new students since 1981, Pappas said. This has forced admis­ sions for winter and spring quarters to close early the last two years, The pressures also apply to Central's extended degree centers, where there are waiting lists for several of the more popular pro­ grams. The Early Childhood Edu­ cation Program at the South Seattle Center has a waiting period of from eight to nine months, Pappas said. As of Feb. 4, according to Pappas, the total number of applications for fall quarter *89 is well ahead of last year, and admissions may be forced to close early again next year. In a letter to members of the uni­ versity community, Pappas listed several reasons for the early clo­ sures. They include enrollment limits, or caps, set by the legisla­ ture, an increasing number of appli­ cations and a significant increase in student retention rates. The enrollment limit the legisla­ ture has set for CWU is 5,877. This has been the same for the last three years and the university has met or exceeded it each of those years. CWU is trying to persuade law­ makers to raise the enrollment lim­ its. In its latest budget proposal, the university asked for funding for an additional 343 on-campus students and 500 more in the satellite pro­ grams. Pappas said several factors will affect the number of new students the university can accept. These include the number of University News—College stu­ dents from Oregon and Washing­ ton take on the duties of United Nations representatives this week­ end at the northwest regional model United Nations conference here on campus. Organizers expect more than 170 delegates from 14 Oregon and Washington universities and com­ munity colleges. "This gathering is really a work­ shop to help us prepare for the annual far west area conference in Seattle in April," said Tom Nation, student coordinator. "The delegates can learn the rules, see what meetings are like, and get experience." Delegations range from one to 20 members, with each university tak­ ing on the task of representing one or more member countries of the UnitedNations. Students often write to foreign governments for official position papers about important issues, and conduct extensive re­ search about its leaders, policies and concerns. "You try to learn about the country's issues and politicians so you can represent your country as well as possible," said Nations. CWU's delegation will represent Columbia and Syria. The model U.N. members will meet in general assembly and in committee meetings, where they will discuss specific topics like the Palestinean conflict, a Middle East nuclear-free zone, international drug-trafficking, and the world­ wide spread of AIDS. By the end of the weekend, a series of proposals will be adopted by the delegates after much debate, students that pre-register for fall quarter, the number who graduate this spring, the retention rate — or number of students who remain enrolled at CWU—and whether or not the legislature will be able to provide fiinding. The retention rate at CWU has been an important factor in deter­ mining the number of new students, he said. "For whatever reason, more and more students are staying at Cen­ tral," Pappas said. "The quality of the students is getting better and better here." He said this is evident in the high school G.P.A. of freshmen, which has been steadily increasing since 1981, and the increasing admissions standards for programs at CWU. This is particularly true of the popu­ lar programs such as business administration and education, ac­ cording to Pappas. Students who transfer from a community college are finding it increasingly difficult to get into CWU. "We can say no to transfers a little easier, I feel," Pappas said, "espe­ cially if they don't have an associ­ ate of arts degree." University officials urge prospec­ tive students to apply early to the college of their choice. Drunk test demonstrated caucuses, voting, and negotiation. Some of the proposals drawn up at the Seattle U.N. conference are eventually sent on to the real United Nations in New York City for con­ sideration. "This is an interesting way to see how the world community inter­ connects," said Nations. "You also see the futility that the U.N. is up against, as well as how responsible they are to the world community." Nations said most model united nations clubs suffered a decline in interest in the 1960s and '70s. How­ ever, along with the notoriety the real U.N. has received recently— such as the Nobel Prize for its peacekeeping force— the popular­ ity of the model U.N. has grown. The northwestern region sent the largest delegation to last, year's far west area conference. "Students get to know and realize that people everywhere are just the same," said Rex Wirth, CWU po­ litical science professor. "They deal with problems in an abstract way, which creates and understanding of what the U.N. is and what it does." Keynote speaker for the Saturday luncheon is Dr. Urban Whitaker, emeritus professor of international law at San Fransico State Univer­ sity. Author of several books and a distinguished expert on the United Nations, Whitaker will evaluate whether today's United nations has the potential to be the kind of or­ ganization its founders envisioned CWU Provost Robert V. Edington, a published author in the field of international relations, will wel­ come conference participants and introduce Whitaker. by MARK WAVRA Staff Writer In accordance with drug and al­ cohol awareness week, Jack Baker coordinated a visual lesson about the effects of alcohol on the body. Volunteers Jill Goedde, T. J. Sedgwick, Shan Sedgwick and Glenn Nielson consumed various amounts of alcohol and then, per­ formed manual and mental dexter­ ity tests in front of a crowd of on­ lookers in the SUB pit. Under supervision, the students started drinking beer and wine coolers at Frazzini's Pizza Place at 8:30 a.m. and stopped drinking at 11 a.m. State Trooper Dave Standish led the volunteers through traditional police tests that determine if a per­ son is too drunk to drive. He had the students perform such feats as standing on one foot, touch­ ing fingertips to the nose, walking heel to toe, and reciting the alpha­ bet He also administered abreathal- izer test to each of the consumers. Nielson, the designated over- consumer who pounded ten beers and had a .09 percent blood alcohol level, faltered during all of the tests. "If we found him driving in this condition, we would definitely take him to jail," said Officer Standish. T.J. Sedgwick, who drank six beers and a cooler and registered a .075 percent blood alcohol level, also tripped up while performing dexterity tests. "I would say he is feeling pretty jolly. I would suspect we had a good one here," said Officer Standish. Shan Sedgwick consumed seven beers but only had a .03 percent blood alcohol level. Jill Goedde registered at .02 percent blood alco­ hol level after drinking two wine coolers. They both performed their tests fluently and would not have been booked for a Driving While Intoxicated violation. The common belief that a person has to register at .10 percent blood alcohol level to be charged with a DWI was proven wrong by both T. J. Sedgwick and Nielson. "I think that the myth of the magic .10 percent was proven wrong to­ day," said Baker. "This proved that you can have less than .01 percent and still be arrested. The myth of the magic number was dispelled iiiiiiti mm WM ilitl# 2, ! * „ -iN \ V ^ J 1 •mmmmmw- mM, » Sliii 11181ft iipi liliii TJ.

Officer Staiidish also expressed that the breathalizer is only one of the many incriminating factors that can be used to prosecute a drunk driver. "It's sort of an icing on the cake," said Standish. He also expressed that DWIs are expensive, embarrassing, and a permanent black mark on your rec­ ord. There is no Warning ticket for a DWI and you can be legally intoxi­ cated for drugs other than alcohol. Officer Standish concluded by saying "If you are pulled over and tested for a DWI, nine times out of ten you will be taken to jail."

Page 2 — The Observer Thursday January 9,1989 Lighting added near l\install by DAINA MURRAY Staff Writer Installment of new lights is one of many campus improve­ ments planned this year, according to a Physical Plant spokesman. Other improvements include con­ struction of newly-paved parking lots and a new swimming pool. Street lights were installed along the walkway between Tunstall and the SUB after a winter nighttime survey by the lighting committee pinpointed that area as one of the darkest areas on campus, Bill Ross, director of Facilities Planning and Construction, said. The lighting survey team walked the entire cam­ pus with a light meter to determine the darkest spots on campus. The other areas they found to be in need of lighting were Eighth Avenue in front of Shaw Smyser, Barge and McConnell, and the area around Grape Center, between Black and Bouillon, he said. These areas will receive lighting by the end of spring quarter, at the latest, Central students produce comedy by BENJY MOGENSEN Staff Writer A new comedy show hit the air this quarter. "University Comedy Television" is 30 minutes of skits in the style of "SCTV" and "Monte Python's Flying Circus," according to Doug Wilson, one of the show's creators. Mike Wilson and Tom Harn complete the trio of minds behind the program. All three are working toward film and video production degrees at Central. Conception and production of the first program started last quarter. They are now in the process of producing the second show which will air Feb. 15 at 9:30 p.m. on KCWU-TV Channel 2. The third and final show for the quarter is scheduled for broadcast on March 15 at 9:30 p.m., but D. Wilson said they are pushing for an earlier date so it will not coincide with finals week. The three students act, direct, produce, run the equipment and edit the show on their own. Other stu­ dents are cast in supporting roles where they are needed, but the trio does most of the acting. "It takes a lot of hours writing the skits, and with preproduction and actually taping, editing, putting in sound and other types of effects," said D. Wilson. D. Wilson said sometimes he gets ideas for skits while sitting in class. They also make comic situations out of every day subjects like class lectures, where they film a class in session and then review it. The skits are different for all three shows. In the next two shows you may not see two male foreign ex­ change students performing water ballet, a music video about dog food or communications professor Len Williams suggesting that you "Just say what" to drugs. The "Ed and Wilbur Used Fruit Emporium" may be carried over into the other shows, but no final decisions have been made. Production equipment belongs to the university, but funding comes out of the trio's own pockets. D. Wilson and Harn said "UCTV" is an excellent way to gain valuable experience for the job market. After a show is broadcast, it may be rerun until the quarter is fin­ ished. "UCTV" may continue next quarter with the possibility of run­ ning two shows a month, but it is to early to decide. according to Paul Pearson, mainte­ nance and construction coordina­ tor. Another facelift project is the construction of a new Olympic- sized pool behind Nicholson and the conversion of the current pool location into a dance studio, a Physi­ cal Plant spokesman said. Bidding for the new pool begins this week, and construction commences in the spring. But don't expect to be able to use the new pool for awhile, he said, because "it is a long ways from completion in September." The current pool will be open for use until the new one is finished. The final change during the academic year is the upgrading of gravel parking lots with pave­ ment this summer, Wendell Hill, director of Auxiliary Services said. The 4F'lotbehindQuigley and the basketball courts, the 'J' lot behind Barto that services Ander­ son Apartments, and the 4A-1' lot east of Bouillon that serves faculty and staff, will all be paved this summer. The' A-2' lot east of Black Hall and the lot north of the 'F' lot will remain gravel, but all lots will receive planter boxes to improve their appearance, Hill said. Also, a sidewalk will be installed through some of the paricing lots for pedes­ trian traffic. Additionally, a cul-de-sac will be installed in the T lot for easier U-tums on the narrow park­ ing strip. The connecting road be­ tween the 'J' and 'F' lots will have ' •:: X v. igffll ***** w, ^ ** Ne wly installed lights around Tunstall Commons brightens the outlook for late night pedestrians.

Elvis sends 'bad message' A proposed postage stamp honoring the late pop singer Elvis Presley would send a "bad message" to young people, says California Democrat Ed Roybal. Roybal, the chairman of the appropriations subcommittee which approves postal subsidies, says Presley's drug use is the reason behind his action against the stamp. Private campaigner Pat Geiger of Vermont, who is pushing for the stamp, says Roybal is exaggerating Presley's use of drugs. "If you're going to wait for the perfect man, you will never issue a stamp," says Geiger. "Elvis had one failing and a million good qualities."

Page 6 — The Observer Thursday February 9,1989 Opinions Romance and the '80s Oil and water or peaches and cream? Editor's note: In an age of equal treatment of the sexes, romance may seem inappropri­ ate. At college where spending money is often scarce, roman­ tic gestures may be cut from the budget. Have feminism andfinances hardened the hearty or have new doors opened for expression? Editors of The Observer do some soul searching in time for the Valentine'sDay celebration. She makes killer lasagna by SUSAN MONAHAN News Editor "Anybody who believes that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, flunked ge­ ography." —Robert Byrne. I love this quote because my grandfather, who worries daily about whether or not I'll get married, is continually telling me if I don't learn how to cook I will never get married. I, on the other hand, don't worry about things like getting married. I worry instead about important things such as getting through college — one thing at a time please. I have always wondered what cooking and marriage had in common and Robert Byrne ap­ pears to agree they have nothing in common. Back to getting to a man's heart through his stomach — realistically, who wants a guy who finds nothing better to do than eat? Charlie got dogged by MIKE ELIASON Scene Editor When I conjure the image of romance, the first thing that comes to mind is Charlie Brown. I remember how, on Valentine's Day, Charlie Brown expressed his "like" for a "little red-haired girl" in the form of a romantic valentine. In turn, the "little red-haired girl" dogged Charlie hard. She wouldn't speak to him. She wouldn'tlook at him. She would not acknowledge his human ex­ istence in any way. In an effort not to become an­ other Charlie, I am cleansing my life of any such romantic en­ counters. Until I can fully ac­ cept being trashed, I won't set myself up for the fall. In short, romance stinks. There are too many things to worry about than some woman burn­ ing your ego at the cross. Then again, my thoughts on the subject may mature some­ day. Valentine's Day is the time for romance Talk before by M. SCOTT THOMAS Forum Editor Ah, romance — that blissful feeling that turns ones knees to Jell-O and starts the heart thump­ ing. Yes, it's that time of the year again — Valentine's Day. Time to show that special some­ one just how much you appreci­ ate his/her affections. Friends of mine tell me that romance is distracting while going to school. I disagree. While it is time consuming to involve one's self in a romance, the rewards far exceed the draw­ backs. I've found that my grades rise and I am more productive than usual when I am romancing someone. I constantly think about the person — where they are, what they are doing and what we can do next It is a won­ derful feeling that sometimes makes school worth attending . Some have said that I am ad­ dicted to romance, but I believe there are worse addictions. Valentine's Day is die perfect opportunity to express these feelings. Just try to overlook the blatant commercialism of the holiday and let yourself go. Years ago, Valentine's Day was a time of stress.

We were treated in a most unwel­ come way — being seated in the high gallery away from our team. The tickets were over-sold, leaving many of our fans packed in the aisles or standing along the balcony railing for the entire contest. After squeezing together and trying to make the best of this risky situation, we were nearly sweptfrom blasted in the 110 db range before the game, during time-outs, half time, etc., which terminated all conversation and made instructions to the team a shouting match for coach Nicholson...

After the game, someone sug­ gested to coach Nicholson that we could place our band behind Western's team and a few other "improvements." Nicholson's reply to these jests is worth repeating: "We will do no such thing," he said. "We will treat Western as our guest in the same manner as we treat all our oppo­ nents at Central. Their fans may sit where they like and will be assured seats. Although our fans have been the best supporters, they have al­ ways been decent and I expect they will continue to be so. I would be very disappointed if this tradition were to change." The game will be won or lost on the floor. Our team will be ready and our coach will be ready to give their best arid do it with class. Our fans can do no less, despite any provocation.

Especially upsetting was the neglectful treat­ ment of student writers and artists. Several professional artists from outside the local area gave presen­ tations and were well received but some talent from inside the local community was not promoted. Student poets were to give readings on Wednesday Jan. 25 in the SUB — staff in the building were pre­ pared for an entertainer to appear later in the evening but were un­ aware and unprepared for the stu­ dent reading. A student art exhibit was to begin on Monday Jan. 23, but arrangements were not settled and the exhibit did not appear. This lack of coordination and promotion came in spite of the evi­ dent policy as presented on page 8 of the Jan. 19 edition of The Ob­ server. "'Festival of the Arts' is a yearly event celebrating the fine arts at Central. It is designed to provide students, faculty members and regional artists a forum to dis­ play their creativity."

Page 10 — The Observer Thursday February 9,1989 w WSs \\vvv s555sss\ New games break up winter monotony Knowing who's undercover wins this game by DENISE DAHLAGER Copy Editor Hot-Pursuit, a game designed to bring excitement to winter quarter doldrums, is coming to Central Feb. 23. At registration on Feb. 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8, you are given a task-card. On it you are given the name, class schedule, residence and physical description of your target. The ob­ ject is to "take-out" your target with a plastic toy-gun. If indeed, you succeed in shooting the target, you take their task card and begin to hunt for the person on their task- card. There will be referees available in case of disputes. Both the last person alive and the person who "takes-out" the most people will win. There is a $500 prize which will be split in the event that these winners are different players. Pat Otter, PRSSA committee chairman of Hot-Pursuit, said "This is a fund raiser for PRSSA. We wanted something new for winter quarter. It's safe, fun and exciting. Everybody can do it — not just an athlete, a brain orpartyer." PRSSA anticipates a large num­ ber of participants. Their goal is 600-700 people. "I think it will be big in the dorms," said Otter. The cost is $18 per person. For this price players receive a toy-gun, a handful of darts and a 100% cot­ ton Hot-Pursuit T-shirt. The game has many rules. To begin, there will be no shooting in classrooms. Hallways are accept­ able. Residence hall rooms are off limits, but residence hallways are fair game. Any shots in the dining halls, the SUB or the library are illegal—and those guilty of break­ ing the rules will be disqualified. Sidelining is a term used to de­ scribe the following situation. You are after your target, and before you are able to fire, your target shoots you. At this point you are sidelined for 24 hours. You are unable to make any offensive moves, but are open for attack. There are many other rules to be explained at the time of registra­ tion. These will be further elabo­ rated upon in an official rule book available at registration. Hot-Pursuit will only be played between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. during weekdays. Play stops at 5 p.m. Fri­ day and begins again at 5 p.m. Sunday. There are many strategies to win Hot-Pursuit, Otter said. For instance, If Dick and Jane decided to work together as a team they could help each other out. If Dick is trying to take out Spot, Jane will pull a "lame shot" on Spot. Spot will then let down his guard, assuming that Jane is sidelined for 24 hours. It is at this point that Dick can easily shoot the unsuspecting Spot. The process is somewhat confusing, but the player who masters the strategy will surely do well. PRSS A has been workingon Hot- Pursuit for a little more than one quarter. According to Otter, the biggest faculty concern was the gun. However, when they actually saw the gun, they laughed. It is adver­ tised as being safe for 3 to 4-year- olds. "They are plastic, ugly neon col­ ors, the darts are neon orange, and you simply can't mistake it for anything other than a toy," Otter said. The game runs fromFeb. 23-March 8, Tbe?winner is declared March 9.

Photo by Gina Myer you too can experience the beauty of true romance. Unless, of course, you are an emo­ tional iceberg, you may wish to dazzle your Valentine with thetried- and-true love poem. It's more sin­ cere than a Hallmark, and should be sealed with a kiss — the mark of a hopeless romantic. If you are a bit reluctant to woo your Valentine with poetic charm and eloquence, a single rose may be your option. It will only cost you a dollar or two, but the effect is un- measurable. It's sweet, sentimen­ tal, romantic and possibly even bor­ derline passionate. For those Sweethearts who shy away from the erotic side of Valentine's Day, Betty Crocker may be your ticket. Cakes, sugar cookies or brownies are quick, inexpensive and thoughtful. Add a heart-shaped pan for a romantic twist If, however, you enjoy a bit of spice and are looking for adventure this Valentine's Day, you might try silks, satins or lace. Sure, it costs slightly more than a Hallmark, but "the silk nighties give you certain advantages that a card just can't get you," said Thor Rude, junior. For those Sweethearts who have hit financial desperation and still want to experience adventure, try wrapping yourself in a big red rib­ bon. Your Sweetheart couldn't ask for a more personal gift. by DAINA MURRAY Staff Writer Theirs is the first face you wake up to in the morning and the last face you see before you close your eyes at night. You share the same tiny dorm room, but do you know them better than simply that head under the blue, flannel covers? For instance, you've rummaged through their wardrobe, but could you say for sure what their favorite color is? You've eaten with them, but can you name their favorite dining hall delicacy? If you can answer these, you may be a perfect candidate for the Roommate Game. Sponsored by University Recrea­ tion and ASCWU, it is the first-ever campus-wide Roommate Game. Katy Crowell, coordinator of the game, said all 16 residence halls are involved in this event. Each hall will have its own game by Feb. 26 to determine the team that will rep­ resent the hall in the preliminary Feb. 28. The preliminary will consist of four rounds of four teams, one team going on to the final March 7 to compete for the grand prize of a hall river float, she said. Both the preliminary and the final are at 7:30 in the SUB ballroom. Emcees for the show are Sara Deli- gan, assistant coordinator of the Roommate Game, and MattBraden, otherwise known as the man behind the polyester Travolta suit in Friday's Lip Sync. Fashioned after the TV gameshow the Newlywed Game, contestants will try to predict the way their roommate will answer to detailed questions about their preferences and habits. The Roommate Game seeks to answer such vital questions as how many pair of white under­ wear your roommate owns. Deligan said it was important to her to get everyone who was inter­ ested to participate in the game, even if they don't have a roommate. For instance, North Hall (which consists of all single rooms) had teams of neighbors in their compe­ tition. She said that even in halls with double occupancy, singles can pair up with a friend. But you'd better know them pretty well, Deligan warns, because some of the questions are really "off the wall." She declined to name any, because the whole operation is top- secret Thelist of sample questions that University Recreation sent out to all the residence hall managers will be compiled, along with any questions the LGAs might have made up, an3 destroyed 16e?ore the preliminary. This will insure that no questions will be repeated, so no team will have an unfair advantage by having heard the question be­ fore, she said. Interested roommates should con­ tact their LGAs as soon as possible to sign up for the hall game. ja v tn ctatisi Breakfast in bed will pamper your Sweetheart. Try a warm note on your Valentine's pillow, an inviting one tucked in a notebook, or a steamy one waiting in a dresser drawer — or all three. Granted, few students are able to afford two tickets to Paradise, or an expensive night of fine dining — but there is nothing more romantic than an intimate dinner for two with candle light and a warm, home- cooked meal — even in a dorm. With all the money and the hype aside, Valentine's Day is aday to be spent with someone you love.
Thursday February 9, 1989 The Observer — Page 11 'To protect and to serve it's my job' by JON MAHN Staff Writer I've grown up in the television age and my idea of a policeman's job is one of shoot outs, car chases and a world where crime doesn't pay- As I discovered when I went to follow an average CWU campus police officer, the main job of the police is quite different from the picture Hollywood has painted. Scott Phipps, 25, an officer who has worked for the CWU police department for almost 4 1/2 years, had a lot to say about the job of law enforcement during his Wednes­ day night beat. "We drive around to be a deter­ rent and show the criminal element that we are out there, and to show the public we are there if they need us," Phipps said. "A lot of times we just go and take information after the fact, but even if we only catch one out of 10, that one is one more criminal off the streets." For me, it was an interesting evening because I noticed all the nervous eyes looking our way. Students who were probably doing nothing, all of a sudden, became quiet and just stared at Officer Phipps and me. It was a unique experience being on the other side of the law enforcement fence. "I don't know why students are so afraid of the police element. I mean, we are there to help them, not hurt them. We are not looking to put people away, we just want to keep everything within the parameters of the law," said Phipps. "This is a very rewarding job at times. For example, I received a call a few months back about a boy causing some problems down at the old Tower Theater. This boy was banging his head against the wall and telling me that the walls were talking to him. I took him into the mental health authorities and they committed him. "I ran into him at a 7-11 store months later and he thanked me for helping him and told me a story about how he was supposed to take care of his little brother one day and his little brother was hit by a car and from then on his mental health began to slowly worsen. What a feeling of accomplishment," said Phipps. Phipps also told me about the other side of the coin. "One evening after I took a walk through a building, I went outside and discovered my car had been trashed and the tires slashed. That really hurts, because we are there to help and make sure they and their property are safe. All they did was slap us in the face." Then all at once, a bit of excite­ ment came our way. A call came in and we were on our way to check out a possible prowler. We sped to lftll§§§ Campus police officer Scott Phipps shows Observer reporter Jon Mahn what life is like on the night heat. Photo by Steve Douglas the scene with lights flashing, and I could feel my heart pounding. Phipps' job was to search the area and either make sure that the prowler was gone or question suspicious characters. Once again, the element of time was against us. "We have to go to every call just on the chance that we may stop a crime in progress and catch a crimi­ nal," Phipps said. That evening I learned many interesting facts about the campus police. Campus police give dorm ill talks on such things as personal safety, crime and rape prevention. "This helps us get to know the students and teach them to help by stopping crime before it occurs — such as bike registration Fall Quar­ ter," Phipps said. An example of helping students out occurred that night as Phipps and I were driving through the Stu­ dent Village parking lot. A car had its lights on. Phipps took down the license plate number and had dis­ patch, a person back at headquar­ ters that gives them information when needed, call the owner and tell him his lights were on. The officers are given extensive psychological training that helps them deal with a variety of situ­ ations. For example, a woman about 40 years old called the police that evening and reported a prowler in her house. Phipps rushed over and could find no one in the house. When he was about to leave, the woman screamed. He went back inside and she had changed her story. She said a man, about three feet tail, jumped up on her table and began dancing with her potted plants on his head. Officer Phipps found no one. He calmed her down and re­ ferred her to the mental health au­ thorities. "The one thing I love about this job is that it's never dull and always changing," Phipps said. "I've done everything from changing an eld­ erly lady's tire to stopping a rape in progress. If a person wants a job that's not routine, being a police officer may be something to look into." When I asked Phipps what he thought was the biggest problem here on campus, he didn't even hesitate when he said "alcohol." "Ninety percent of the time, al­ cohol is the reason we get called some place. People get out of hand or angry and the alcohol intensifies the emotion and that's when we have to come in," he said. "A lot of times it's just a boy­ friend and a girlfriend having alively discussion and the alcohol brings on a fist fight. Party all you want— just don't go outside the parameters of the law, or you'll have to talk to us." Noise is a big problem, he said. "They don't want to tell them, so they send us in to be the bad guys," Phipps said. Phipps' last day on patrol was Feb. 7, as he took a job with the Renton police force. "I hate to see him going—he's a good officer, but so are all of the other officers here at CWU," Sgt. Tim Stowe said. "I wish him the best of luck." After the beat was over, Phipps took me back to the station. I thanked him for the experience, and told him that it seemed to be a very reward­ ing job. "Its just like I tell my son every day before I go to work," Phipps said, "I'm out there to help people not hurt people. To protect and to serve — its my job."

Page 12 — The Observer Thursday Febrary 9,1989 * * Campus Coping 'I'm resorting to drugs to help me' fi Dear L.B. Lately I've been very depressed, but the problem is that I'll never let it show. My friends only see the happy side of me, but deep down I'm very sad and lonely. I've been resorting to drugs to help me, espe­ cially when I go to sleep, but I'm afraid things are going to get worse. I don't want to have to rely on drugs for the rest of my life, but I don't want anyone to know how sad I am. Secretive Dear Secretive, Even though you write that you don't want your friends to know how sad you've been feeling, I sense that inside you're crying for some­ one to talk to. Many people, when alone and sad, resort to alcohol or drugs to combat the accompanying depression. The down side of this is that the aloneness and sadness don't disappear, they just get superficially hidden.

'It's old bugle lips' Greg Goessman Let's start out by getting one thing extremely clear — I am fishing ignorant. With fishing season running up on us, there is no doubt in my mind that I know as much about fishing as I do about open-heart surgery. Only difference is, I know where the human heart is. As far as fishing goes, I can barely find a lake that has even the remotest chance of holding within its depths even the tiniest, wimpiest minnow. This is why I started watching Fishin' Shows on The Nashville Network. Along with my roommate, Chris, I now have a steady diet of he-man type outdoors programs, designed to turn even the most ig­ norant would-be fisherman into a backwoods hero. My current idol, besides Mark (the guy who can fix any computer problem at the drop of a hat, while I would rather punch the computer right in its big ol' fatty screen rather than look at it), is Babe Winkelman, the host of "Babe Winkelman's Outdoor Secrets." Babe taught me that No, it is not possible to fish in your own back­ yard pond with a bamboo pole and a jar full of worms like Andy and Opie used to do in Mayberry. To be a successful fisherman, you need the following: Money. This is necessary to buy the boat, the motor, the anchor, the rod, the s, v,3... L & 9 aum. £ asm* *- reel, the orange vest with two bil­ lion pockets, the hat with two bil- lion lures, the scientifically designed underwear and the scientifically designed, sight-tested, smell-tested, taste-tested, "You can't catch me because you're fat and ugly" fish­ ing lure. Babe also taught me the impor­ tance of the place where you fish. Never, ever, fish in a body of water called "Lake Baxter" for instance. There are no fish there. All of the fish hang out in lakes like the one Babe earns his money on—"Lake Oppachobie." As far as Babe is concerned, fish only live in lakes g with more than eight letters in their names. Another thing I became aware of is the importance of Scouting Your Spot. This is important because you need to know the best place to fish, the depth to fish at and the place where the game warden is least * likely to see you when you dump your beer bottles into the lake. Fishin' Shows, while they usually show rugged, bearded men with no visible sign of employment catch­ ing ridiculously large fish, occa­ sionally have shows when there are * no fish to be caught. This is the fun part, when these men, who by their appearance couldn't sign their name legibly* start spouting off bizarre facts like they were going out of style. "There are 30 or 40 different types _ of dragonfly out here," said one such outdoorsman. I did not make this up. The very best part of the average Fishin' Show, however, is listening to Babe and his macho friends dis­ cuss their various catches. During this part of the show, it is nearly * impossible to not hear one of the following: "There's a beauty!" "That's a monster bass!" "It's old bugle lips!" "OH, SON!!!" These are standards in the Fishin' v World and no trip is a real trip without them, so, before you head for the lake, turn on the tube and learn from Babe. He's as important to the experience as the maggot you put on the end of your hook. And a lot less icky. f
Thursday February 9,1989 Sports Sports Sports i"» i Western in the 'Cat house Saturday by TAMISCHRANK Sports Editor Seahawks vs. Raiders, Lakers vs. Celtics, Wildcats vs. Vikings. Saturday's men's varsity basket­ ball game against Western Wash­ ington is the epitome of the classic sports rivalry. In the first game at Bellingham in Januaiy, Central protected a seven- point halftime lead to win 67-64. The victory, in front of more than 3,000 fans, snapped the Vikings' 16-game home win streak. On the line Saturday night are Central's eight-game win streak (before Tuesday's game at Puget Sound) and bragging rights for a year. The intensity of the rivalry and interest in the game were evident when the earlier game was sold out the Tuesday before the Saturday showdown. The game actually was over-sold. Sam Carver Gym, the Vikings' home, officially seats 3,000, but 3,311 tickets were sold. Nicholson Pavilion holds 3,200 officially but has never sold out, according to Bob Guptill, CWU sports information director. "We have never turned anyone away," Guptill said. However, this may be the game to reach the sellout maik, as it prom­ ises to be a good match-up. Tickets will go on sale at the Pavilion at 4 p.m. Saturday. The gates will open at 6:30 and tipoff is set for 7:30. Western is presently tied for first place in the district with Lewis- Claik State with a record of 11-1, its only loss coming at the hands of Central. Western has already clinched a playoff berth. The Vikings, however, have lost 24 straight against the Wildcats since their last win ill the Pavilion Feb. 4,1972, which they won 76- 71. Central is also doing well as it is in third place in the district and has won its last four games without starting forward Carl Aaron. He was sidelined because of minor surgery, but will be in uniform Saturday. In last year's match-ups, the regu­ lar-season game went into overtime with the 'Cats prevailing 82-78. In the playoff game, Central handed Western a 72-51 beating. Spirits are already running high as was evident by the Lip Sync crowd's response last week to the special act "The Wildcat House," by Robin Mac Alpine and the Mi­ nority Student Association. The song, wriiten by Mac Alpine, is expected to be performed some­ time during Saturday's game. The words are printed here so ev­ eryone can sing along: The Wildcat House This is the House, the House, the Wildcat House Who * s House, Our House! The Wildcat House!

page 14 — The Observer Thursday February 9,1989 Wrestlers finish up dual-meet season by MARK WAVRA Staff Writer Central's wrestling squad kept busy last week with two dual matches and a tournament. The Wildcats faced Pacific Lutheran and Simon Fraser in dual meets, then hosted the Washington State Colle­ giate Championships on Saturday. "I was pleased with the team. We had a lot of fine efforts," head coach Hedj Nelson said. Washington State Tourney CWU hosted the Washington state championships in Nicholson Pavil­ ion Saturday. Simon Fraser deci­ sively won the tournament with 110 points, almost double the points of second-place Eastern Washington, which finished with 56. Central finished with 45 1/2 points. Central grapplers placed six wres­ tlers in the top three of their respec­ tive weight classes. "They all (the Wildcats) wrestled really well. We wrestled Simon Fraser last night and we pulled together really well today for some nice efforts," Nelson said. Curran placed first in his weight class by defeating Selwyn Tam of Simon Fraser in the finals. "Last night I pinned him in the first round, so when I was behind 6- 0 in the second round I just asked my self, 'What's going on?'" Cur­ ran said. "Luckily I pulled it through." National qualifier Chris Mason finished second at 126 pounds. He lost 4-2 to Norm Spence of Simon Fraser in the finals. "I've got the same guy at districts in a couple of weeks, so I hope I can get things turned around before then," Mason said. Ellensburg native Sandy Steven­ son lost a tight match to Simon Fraser's Craig Roberts, finishing second in the 142-pound class. The final score was 1-0, but nu­ merous people on hand argued that Stevenson executed a maneuver in Presented by CWU Dining Services mo "SALT OF THE EARTH" We are constantly hearing "avoid foods high in salt", or "put down that salt shaker." Why? Salt is not a fat, it contains no calories, so why must we restrict our intake? The connection of salt and high blood pressure is well known. High blood pressure is linked to heart disease. There is an on-going debate on whether a high-sodium diet causes hyperten­ sion and conversely, whether a sodium-restrictd diet can prevent it. The evidence is inconclusive. The value of a low-sodium diet in the treatment of established hypertension is unquestioned, however. Studies have shown that even a mild restriction of sodium can produce a modest but definite fall in blood pressure in many peo­ ple. One favor you can do yourself, especially if you have heart disease in your family, is to learn to control your salt intake. Stop salting foods in cooking and at the table, limit your intake of canned and process­ ed foods, and read tables. Sodium intake is one risk factor we can ail control.

"It was a tough call and I didn't agree, but then it wasn't up to me." Matt Hume, 158 pounds, defeated EWU's Mark Cook for third place honors. "I wrestled him eaiiier today arid he beat me—he got lucky," Hume said. "I knew I could beat him if I kept good positioning." Shoup placed third at 167 pounds by defeating Tim Burgman from EWU, 5-3. "I wrestled 100 percent, but it was still closer than it should have been," Shoup said. LaCross earned third place hon­ ors at 190 pounds, defeating Pa­ cific Lutheran's Wayne Purdon. CWU vs. Simon Fraser Central faced Simon Fraser, the No. 1 ranked team in the nation, last Friday at home. Central lost, 30-11, winning only two individ- "They are ranked No. 1 and I re­ ally didn't expect to win," Nelson said. "The boys did really well though, so I wasn't disappointed." Curran defeated Selwyn Tam at 118 pounds and Shoup beat Kevin Pine, 5-3, at 167 pounds for the Central victories. CWU vs. Pacific Lutheran Central soundly defeated Pacific Lutheran, 24-14. Six of 10 Wildcat wrestlers beat their Lute rivals. "I wasn't too worried about that one," Nelson said. "They aren't a tough team in dual matches." Brian Curran, 118 pounds, started out the evening by gaining a techni­ cal fall over his opponent Rob Simpson in the third round. Chris Mason then defeated David Bosone, 9-2, at 126 pounds. Other winners were Sandy Ste­ venson at 142 pounds, Roger Shoup at 172 pounds, James Jolly at 177 pounds and Ed LaCross at 190 pounds. by KEVIN DEKOSTER Contributing Writer Central Washington's men's and women' s s wim teams travel to Port­ land for the Bi-District Swimming and Diving Championships Feb. 16- 18. The men are seeking their sev­ enth consecutive title while the women are seeking their fifth straight crown. The teams concluded the dual meet season with defeat at the hands of Puget Sound last week in Ta- coma. CWU vs. UPS The Loggers won every event as the UPS men beat Central 138-67, and the lady Loggers overpowered CWU 146-58. Leading the 'Cats was freshman Scott Ericson. He finished only three seconds behind Puget Sound's Ian Lee in the 800-meter freestyle. He was also second in the 400-meter freestyle. "It was hard to tell times with the pool being meters, but Scott proba­ bly swam his best dual meet of the season," head coach Lori Clark said. Mike Platte also had a strong per­ formance for Central. He finished second in the 100-meter freestyle (56.56) and 200-meter freestyle (2:04.21). "Mike keeps telling me that all he can swim is die 50 and 100, but his 200 freestyle has been a nice sur­ prise," Clark said. ^ Central also finished well in the 50-meter freestyle, as Kenny Smith (24.90) and Scott Yates (25.53) teamed up for second and third place, respectively. On the women's side, Central was led by freshman Allison Walsh. ^ She placed second in the 800-meter freestyle (9::38.72) and third in the 400-meter freestyle (4:47.89). Senior Lorijo Claunch contrib­ uted to the Central effort with a second place finish in the 200-me- tfr. ter backstroke (2:37.42). "This year's UPS team is one of the fastest NAIA squads of the decade," Clark said. Clark, who took over for long­ time mentor Bob Gregson who is ^ on one-year sabbatical, inherited a young team, but guided the men to an 8-4 record and the women to a 6- 5 record. The winning seasons marked the 27th consecutive winning season for the men and the sixth for the women. CWU at Wash. State Open Freshman Shari Mars led the 'Cats as she took fifth in the 1650-yard freestyle (18:27.96). Andy Platte was the only other £/ Wildcat in the top six as he placed sixth in the 200-yard butterfly (2:00.48). The meet lasted three days, but Central was only able to compete two days.

Thursday February 9, 1989 Basketball player exchanges big-city life for Ellensburg The Observer — page 15 Win streak broken Junior varsity splits games by ROY ELIA Staff Writer Transferring from Seattle Uni­ versity to Central Washington Uni­ versity, exhanging the big-city atmosphere for that of a small farm­ ing community, has proven to be a positive step, according to CWU women's basketball player Kajsa Clark. Claik, a Colville native, whose father Ray competed as a diver at Central in the 1960s, said constant crime around theCapitolHill neigh­ borhood of Seattle, where she and other university students were housed, put a damper on her first college experience. "I did not realize what kind of campus it was,*' Clark said. "I did not like die environment at all. I did not feel comfortable or relaxed." Occasionally, security personnel would walk students to thecampus, Claik noted The sophomore guard was an active participant in Colville athlet­ ics, earning three varsity letters in volleyball and four each in basket­ ball and softball. Both volleyball and basketball required more intense pre-game preparation, Clark said, while soft- ball provided a more low-key set­ ting, but "when the time came, we went out to win," she added. Hie biggest victory of Claik's athletic career at Colville came in Frederick said. "She is getting bet­ ter every game and getting more confidence. She is upbeat and al­ ways working hard." Clark sees herself as more of a play-making guard rather than a shooter. "I like to get a lot of assists in­ stead of score," Claik said. "Once I get more confidence in shooting, I'll be able to contribute more."

CHS finished sec­ ond to Hartford. "Cheney and Colville were ri­ vals," Clark remembered. "There was personal pride on the line. I was enthusiastic about it (going to state)."

CWU vs. Spokane CWU was unable to overcome a 20-point halftime deficit as the vis­ iting Sasquatches held on for a 90- 82 victory. CCS shot 75 percent from the field in the first half while building a 53-33 lead at intermission. Central responded with the first eight points of the second half and gradually worked its way back into the contest Spokane, however, made clutch free throws and layups down the stretch to squelch any thoughts of a Wildcat miracle.

YVCplayed without guards Brian Hall and Jeff Staten. Neither of the backcourt performers made an appearance at Sherar Gym Satur­ day or at a Friday practice session. The no-show prompted YVCC coach Pete Jarvis to tell a Yakima newspaper reporter, "Maybe they made a decision (to quit) and didn't tell me." The Indians were also without forward Carl Iverson, who rested up for a community college game at Walla Walla last night, according to the Yakima publication. Despite the absences, Olwell was not about to down-play the victory. "Our man-to-man pressure keyed everything," Olwell said. "We ran the break well and played defense well in the second half."
