Thursday November 29,1990 Central Washington University Vol. 9 No. 8 Rugby loses club funding Punishment triggered by telephone theft from Oregon restaurant by Jonathan Modle News editor Central's rugby club lost Club Senate funding Nov. 15 after school officials discovered a club member stole a telephone from a Portland-area restaurant during a game trip, said Russell Johansen, BOD representative to clubs and organizations. Johansen announced the action to Club Senate representatives, saying it was in concurrence with the Club Senate constitution. ^According to Article IV, Section B of the constitution, "Any club or organization not following Washington State, Central Washington University, Associated Students of Central Washington. University, and ASCWU Club Senate laws, rules, regulations, and guidelines must return the appropriated funds to Club Senate and will lose the right to request funds for the remaining academic year." "Fortunately, the constitution very clearly spells out what happens," Johansen said. "It doesn't leave any room for softness. We decided they had broken Washington state law in the least."

"We're fighting to try to get Mr. McMillan's contract reinstated," said senior Mary Graham, president of the Law and Justice club, which led the protest. "He's been here (at Central) 16 years and he's got contacts and street experience." McMillan was given notice earlier this year that as of June 1991 his contract will not be renewed. The reason, according to the dean of the College of Let­ ters, Arts and Sciences, Donald W. Cummings, is the strengthening of the law and justice program that requires fully-credentialed teachers with terminal degrees, such as a Ph.D. McMillan does not have this degree. McMillan, 47, has taught on and off at Central since 1975.

When the suspect opened the door, one officer tried opening the door further and got his finger caught in it when it was slammed shut, the report said. ~ The officer then entered the room through an open win­ dow and the suspect was caught fleeing out another window, the report said.

"We have to specify a Ph.D. for a tenured track," Cum- mings said. "It was a difficult decision." The students at the protest carried signs that read "Field experience vs. Ph.D.," and "McMillan's not the villain." They also gathered signatures on a petition that read, in part,"Without Mr. McMillan's contributions to the law and justice program, it will be lack­ ing the present high standard that is now enjoyed." "He's got experience and he cares," senior Kevin Lawson said. "He's willing to work with us," senior Kelly Jensen said. "He's the only one in our department who will give me the time of day." The students left Mitchell Hall and carried their protest to the SUB cafeteria to garner more signatures. Graham said the next move will be to talk directly to Dean Cummings but they won't stop there. "The ball just started rolling," Graham said. "We're going to raise hell all year." McMillan, who is the adviser of the law and justice club as well as the Alpha Phi-Sigma honor society, said the students did this all on their own. "I'm really touched within my heart that people would do that for me," McMillan said. "I wish somethingcouldbe worked out. I'm trying to take a view of acceptance." McMillan said the students coming together for this, or any other cause, was a positive thing. That thought was one also expressed by Cummings. "Anytime students do these things,. it's positive," Cum­ mings said. "Anytime they find rational ways of doing things. "(But), I find it incredibly un­ comfortable to be the target." Cummings said the protest wasironicforhim sincehe was a part of protests in the 60s. "It wasn't that long ago that I carried the sign," Cummings said. "Whatgoes around comes around."

A boy was arrested Nov. 22 by campus police in con- r nection with driving through the Student Village parking f lot crashing into cars and driving away» a campus police report said. Five parked cars recieved -r' an estimated $4000 in dam- age when the suspect, driving a borrowed Cheverolet Citation to give a friend a ride home, collided into them. Officers responding to the incident tracked down the suspect's car by matching taillight pieces found at the scene, the report said. Skid marks and body : damage to the cars indicated the impact by the Citation hit three cars parked next to each other, and they collided in a chain reaction. The man then backed into another car, and hit a fifth car as he left the parking lot. Witnesses, including the owner of the Citation and the .friend of the suspect who received a ride home, indi­ cated he was driving the car "wildly," the report said. The suspect gave five ver­ sions of the incident when questioned, but then said he didn't remember the incident. The suspect was arrested in connection with the incident and was later released into his father's custody pending contact with juvenile au­ thorities, the report said. Three Beck Hall resi­ dents were cited for possesion of marijuana Monday night after campus police, responding to their room on a noise complaint, smelled the drug, a campus police report said. When questioned about the suspected marijuana, one man admitted to smoking it and gave the officers a pipe that contained a charred bit of marijuana and a plastic bag containing traces of a green substance. When asked where they got the marijuana, one man told officers they bought it in Seattle, the report said. The three men were then cited for possession of under 40 grams of marijuana. 11 p.m. — one week only! From LIBRARY / pg. 1 - rooms in the SUB will be designated a "quiet room." Meanwhile, the search for a temporary librarian continues. Frank Schneider, dean of library services, said an advertise­ ment for the position would run soon in Seattle, Spokane and Yakima newspapers. It was announced Oct. 16 that Schneider would immediately begin advertising for a temporary librarian to fill an opening on the library staff. The library closing hour would be moved from 10 p.m. to 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday if a librar­ ian is found. Schneider said the one-month delay in placing the ad was caused by "misplaced paperwork in an office somewhere on campus." Robert Edington, vice president of academic affairs, said although one month is a long time for action to be taken, believes "Dean Schneider has acted, in good f^aith." in the matter. ' v': A temporary librarian would work until a permanent staff member is hired, Edington said. The national search for applicants to fill the permanent position will take about six months, he said. i iisif iill Illlifa Attend RIGOS CPA Review 0UT StUuheSEHeens^^ 59.9%.ol ^ ,, cpA & Cm i 100% LIVE Instruction for the May 1991 CPA Exam Our 42 class program is offered in Bellevue beginning December 2nd.

Thursday, November 29,1990 Shake, rattle (the rock) and roll Radio students may lose KCAT credit by Darla Hill News editor The money monster strikes again. Come spring quarter, credit for practical on-air radio experience through the mass communication de­ partment will no longer be available, if a proposal sent Nov„ 14 to the department's dean and to the vice presi­ dent of academic affairs is approved. The proposal, said Dr. Phil Backlund, chair of the mass communication department, outlines a plan to focus the broadcast journalism major toward television and away from radio. That doesn't mean KCAT, the student-run, campus radio station, will be going off the air, said senior Mark Lawson, currently the station's general manager. It just means "the student's only opportunity to have on- air practical experience for credit is gone," he said. The practical radio news class, which includes on-air time at KCAT, as well as academic credit for student- staffed position s at the station will be cut, Back­ lund said. Also going would be assistant professor Alan Taylor's radio advisoiy role, he said. Taylor would work strictly in the television area of the broadcast major. "As a department," Back­ lund said, "we've been told by program reviewers that we are trying to do too many things with too few resources. "We can't continue to do a mediocre job with a lot of things. We'd rather do a good job with fewer things," he said. Robert Edington, Central's vice-president of academic affairs, said he has several proposals from the depart­ ment before him, of which the changes in the radio program are only a part. "(The dean, Backlund and I) are discussing several possibilities and will arrive at a conclusion about all of them together," he said. "Any decision to discon­ tinue a program would be a phased-in kind of thing." Lawson said, "The commu­ nication department just lit 30 firecrackers," referring to the number of student volunteers at the station. "After they go off, we're going to light 7,000 more," he said. "We (at the radio station) encourage freedom of speech on campus and this- is the best source for that freedom." Ruggers plan appeal Page 3 From RUGBY / pg. 1 will appeal the decision. He has written a letter to the Council of Probity, which makes decisions on conflicts within Club Senate. "That's really the course of action to take to try to get our money back," Smith said Mon­ day. "We hope to get a meeting before the end of the quarter." Club Senate's action stems from an incident Oct. 26 in which a rugby club member, before a game in Portland, stole an antique telephone from a table at a Biggs Junction, Ore. restaurant, Smith said. The club member left school to train for military duty in Saudi Arabia before he could be dismissed from the club, but Smith said he eventually was. The telephone was eventually returned to the restaurant after its owner called John Drinkwa- ter, Central's .director of stu­ dent activities, "to see if he could help him get his phone back," Johansen said. Drinkwater then talked to the rugby club's adviser, Mark ' Zetterberg, who then informed the club's president, Tom Jackson, of the call. But according to Johansen, Jackson wanted to wait until Central took action against the club before coming-forward to Club Senate with the incident. Jackson said he wanted to arrange for the phone's return and apologize to the restaurant's owner in person and by letter in an attempt to 'Leave it to Beaver* reruns now at the Ganges nearest you by Jonathan Modie News editor The beavers are backhand they're out for bark! A family of beavers which destroyed a half dozen trees on the banks of the Ganges canal and built a dam in the canal north of Quigley Hall will be removed, said Bill Engel, Central's custodial and grounds supervisor. Engel said the beavers occu­ pied a dam in the same area a year ago, but didn't cause as much damage. "They're giving us some real problems thisyear," Engel said. "We're leaving their removal strictly up to the Game De­ partment." The state Department of. Game set live traps last week in areas the beavers have been found and plan to relocate them to other water areas nearby. Engel said the agency had problems catching the animals because students were delib­ erately springing the traps. "We want people to leave the live traps alone," he said. "There has been a couple of occasions where the trapshave just been sprung. "If (the Game Department) has no luck, they will have to go to a kill trap." Engel said the beavers cut down many valuable trees, including a graduating class tree, and some ornamental and fruit trees. "They worked a little bit on a small mountain ash tree, and they've been working on a lot of willows," Engel said. Grounds crews wrapped soiae birch trees near the banks of the canal with chicken wire in hopes it would keep the bea­ vers from chewing on them. Engel said they have been ef­ fective. "Beavers are great animals and really have a pi rpose for ecology, but they real !y need to be in the hills where they be­ long," Engel said. "Hopefully, we can do the (removal) the live way." resolve the situation before Club Senate could consider it. Jackson said he stopped at the restaurant to apologize to the owner and arrange for the phone's return on the way to a game in Ashland, Ore. After leaving a note and his phone number with the man­ ager on duty at the time, Jackson said the manager later called Drinkwater again in­ stead of him, and Keith Cham­ pagne, assistant director of student activities, informed Johansen of the incident. "We didn't want to call atten­ tion to ourselves," said Jackson, adding he was aware of what action Club Senate would most likely take, but that it would hinder the Ashland trip and he "wanted to avoid the politics as much as possible." "Without the money, as a team, we would not have been able to go down there," he said. Smith said he wasn't aware of the incident until Jackson told him about it. "Most of the team didn't even know about it," he said. Smith said until a decision is made on the appeal, funds will have to come out club mem­ bers' pockets and through fun- draising. Jackson said the action hurts his club. "People who had nothing to do with the incident are being penalized," he said. "If it was $40 or $50, big deal. But we're talking $400.

For a group of 23 dedicated students, Christmas vacation this year will mean a lot of hard work. The students, representing three different campus Chris­ tian groups, are bound for El Florido, Mexico Dec. 8 to build houses for families in needLThey will work in connection with Amor Ministries, a missions organization. "The reason they need houses is because (of a homesteading program) where, if you get a piece of land and develop it, then you own it," said Scott Smartt, an intern with Cam­ pus Ambassadors, who is or­ ganizing and leading the trip. "If they don't develop (the land) the government takes it away (from them)." The other groups sending students down are Salt Com­ pany and Central Christian Fellowship. This will be Smartt's fourth working trip to Mexico. "Before I did this, I didn't have a clue to what life in other places was like outside my culture," he said. "College is a place where you can get away from the things you grew up with and develop your own world view." Smartt said each student has to raise about $375. Fundrais- ing effortshave included "slave days" through sponsoring churches, where students do yard or house work for dona­ tions, and abooth at this week's Ware Fare in the Samuelson Matt Waggoner/The Observer Students Wendy Richardson and Mel Rylander, both from Campus Ambassadors, hired out as "slaves" to raise money for their Mexico mission trip costs. Union Building. Smartt said they are drawing from club members and host churches for the tools and other supplies they'll need. In addition to food and travel, they need to raise money for the materials to build each house. They will build three of them while they're there. "We send down money for the materials, (the family) buys them and finds a place to build the house, then we go down and lay the foundation and put up the walls," Smartt said. Students are not doing all of the work. While in Mexico, they'll get the families involved as well. "People (in Mexico) have this idea of the American house with a peak. If we build half of a roof, Amor Ministries en­ courages them to build the other half," Smartt said. The Mexico-bound group will should return Dec. 20, in time for Christmas. Sophomore Marcy Cox, of Campus Ambassadors, said: "College is a place where you can get away from the things you grew up with and de­ velop your own world view." — Scott Smartt "Travel time is about a day and a half with one night spent at a church along the way. On the way back we'll drive straight through. Most people (will be) anxious to get back." "I went last year and it was one of the best experiences I ever had," said Cox. "I think it's great that the different groups are going together." Junior Lee Williamson, from Salt Company, is going for his first time this year. "It's going to be a great grow­ ing experience for me," he said, "and I'm looking forward to going down and helping those people who need it." 'Bells are ringing...' by Joe Butler Staff reporter If you've been late to class regularly this quarter, you may have noticed. The chimes atop the Samuel- son Union Building are ring­ ing again. The Maas Rowe Carillon, reminding the campus hourly of the time since its installa­ tion in 1963, broke last spring quarter. John Horton, Central's build­ ing and grounds supervisor, completed repairing the chimes last week after replac­ ing broken parts. The machine is similar to a player piano: the music comes on rolls of perforated tape which is fed into a roller equipped with a timer. There is also a piano key­ board attached to allow for manual playing. "A lot of the other schools have gone to electronic music, but I like the sound of these chimes better," Horton said.

Student and staff military reservists or National Guard members with campus hous­ ing, employment and classes hanging in the balance need not worry. Those who have been alerted to possible active duty status for Operation Desert Shield in the Middle East will have their jobs, housing and admission guaranteed upon their return, thanks to two resolutions passed Sept. 14 by the Central Board of Trustees. The first resolution, concern­ ing students called up to active duty, guarantees a complete refund of all tuition and fees paid and a guarantee of re- enrollment — regardless of future admissions closures or state-mandated enrollment lids — if a request to return to Central is made within 180 days of release from service. The second resolution guar­ antees that Central faculty or staff called up will be rein­ stated at their former job or one of equivalent pay and sen­ iority. Both resolutions also guaran­ tee that unused portions of Central userfees, such as park­ ing and meals, will be refunded on a prorated basis. Central President Donald Garrity told the trustees the resolution was necessary. "Current policy does not al­ low us to respond as we think we should,1" he said. "No stu­ dent or employee should be penalized because they were called to active duty." The resolutions, restricted to Operation Desert Shield—the influx of more than 250,000 active and reserve U.S. mili­ tary personnel to Saudi Arabia in response to Iraq's invasion of neighboring oil-rich Kuwait in July—should be modifi ed to become standing university policy to cover all U.S. military deployments, Garrity said. 3 students: 'The waiting is over' From STUDENTS / pg. 1 and then inform the chap­ lain." $ He said he may be involved in driving to the front lines and giving services in the field, and he also may have to give last rites to those who need them. "It's not something I look '4 forward to," he said. "I hope it doesn't come to that." "I'm majoring in psychology, and I'm learning to relate better with people," Kerr said. "I'm not an avowed religious person. I could be # there to help somebody relieve their stress." Masters, Lewis and Killian may already be feeling the stress. "I don't want to go there and sit on my butt," said Masters, 3 of Both ell. "The troops down there are really bored, and they're not allowed to go into the cities because of the cultural differences." The families of Masters and Lewis knew their sons 1 % were off to the Middle East before their sons were even told. "Our families had four months to adjust to the fact," said Lewis, of Redmond. "They're not happy about it, n # especially our mothers and girlfriends. "But it was a relief when it came down to it," he added. "The waiting is over. It was hard to concentrate on schoolwork when at the drop ^ of a hat you were gone." "It's even harder now that we know we're going," Mas­ ters said. "There's so many things to get done. Bills to pay, wills, powers of attor­ ney, car payments, insur- H ance. It's stressful." Killian, of Seattle, said his parents "don't like my going over there. My mother's very nervous. It's kind of hard because I will be gone for Christmas." # Another student, sophomore Kurt Woods, has already come and gone from Desert Shield duty. Woods, who served in the 82nd Airborne division, was among the first group of # soldiers to be sent to Sauid Arabia. While there, Woods, a combat medicine specialist, said the threat of chemical warfare made him afraid he would never return home. "I thought I was going to die...My father had fought in the Vietnam War, became a prisoner of war, then es­ caped. Then I went to Pan­ ama and now to Saudi Arabia.*' Killian, Masters and Lewis- depart for Camp 29 in Palms, Calif. Dec. 12 for desert training in the Ml Abraham tanks. "These are the top tanks in the force," Lewis said. "They can go 70 mph, and we're safe from chemical warfare inside the tank." "That's one of the pluses I see in going there," Masters added. "We've got good equipment." Masters and Lewis shared their concern about the fact that all sides involved in the crisis have similar arms. "Because Iraq has some U.S. made M-60 tanks it's going to be hard telling who's who when this all hits the fan," Lewis said. "A lot of Syrians have the same type tanks as Iraqis and Iraqis have the same type tanks as we do," Masters said. "There's going to be Americans killing Americans and allies killing allies. You're gonna eyeball for whatever moves, and if it looks foreign, you have to shoot or the/11 shoot you first." "In the desert, a lot of dust will be kicked around," Lewis 'Why does the U.S. always have to be the world's fly swatter?" — Bob Kerr said. "There'll,be a lot of misinterpretation. It's going to be hairy. Really hairy. That's why I'm glad I'm in an Ml tank. They look like no other tank." As for reasons why the U.S. is involved in the crisis, the opinions vary. "My personal belief is that the world couldn't handle a united Arab power," Masters said. "If the Arabs unite like what Iraq is trying to do, they would be a strong, strong force with more terrorist capabilities. It would be a big threat, and they'll die for Allah." Lewis said: "Hussein is a nut case. If he gets control of the Arab states, we'll have more problems with his trying to expand like Ger­ many in World War II." "I don't see why the U.S. has the majority of forces in Saudi Arabia," Kerr said. "There should be more involvement from the allies rather than as just military advisers. "Why does the U.S. always have to be the world's fly swatter?" he asked. hinder Chiropractic Center Located next to campus 1011 N.

He was smoking a cigarette and when he leaned back against the wall with the cigarette in hand, he acciden­ tally burnt a hole in the poster. He was executed. Ibraham does not believe Saudi soldiers will attack Iraq if President Bush chooses an offensive plan. "Blood is thicker than oil," he said, adding the uniting factor among the Arab peoples is not Hussein, but Islam. An attack by the United States against Iraq would not be seen as an attack on one country, but on the entire Islam world. Originally, Ibraham said, Kuwaitbelonged to Iraq. Be­ fore the invasion by Great Britain in 1914, there were no boundaries in the Middle East. Great Britain granted inde­ pendence to Kuwait in 1914. Its northern boundaries were agreed upon by Iraq in 1923. Ibraham said Iraq lost its last free port when Kuwait gained independence. In past years Iraq has asked Kuwait to lease two small islands off the coast of the smaller country. Kuwait refused, provoking Hussein's invasion. Ibraham said he does not agree with Great Britain's division of the Middle East, but he respects the sovereignty of Kuwait because the Kuwaitis are his Muslim cousins. If war were to break out the actual war might only take three months, Ibraham said. It's useless, he said, to fight against an enemy who doesn't care how many losses he must suffer to win. Iraqi soldiers are just emerg­ ing from a nine-year war with Iran, Ibraham said. They are tired of fighting, but Hussein has given them no choice. Ibraham was born in a village outside Baghdad and lived in Iraq until the 1960s. He re­ ceived collegiate education in Holland before returning to Iraq for a few years. He re­ turned to Holland, later immi­ grating to the United States. He married a Catholic and lives in Yakima, where he owns a trout farm. Ibraham has one son in the U.S. National Guard and his sister, an Iraqi citizen, has three sons in the Iraqi army.

Each Christmas a non-profit organization secures Christ­ mas baskets of donated food and other items for families in need. "Volunteers from the commu­ nity. . . gather up food, brand new toys, blankets, and clothes for needy families in the area," said Karri Matau, a public relations major volunteering with the program. Matau said the organization has a goal of supplying all the families that apply for baskets enough food for a complete dinner. Last year 500 families benefitted from the program. "As far as I can tell, the col­ lege is not aware of this pro­ gram because... the students are gone before it even kicks off," Matau said. "We thought that this year we really wanted to make (students) aware of the program and give them a chance to donate."

Teacher Education, MmiHIBHHn r BE A PLASMA DONOR ^ l!if|§l|!!^ Northwest computer whizzes compete in contest at Central by Shannon Downs Staff reporter The second floor of Hebeler Hall was filled with the sound of clicking keyboards and mumbling voices Nov. 17. Eighteen teams and advisers from 13 northwest colleges competed in a five-hour com­ puter programming contest. Each team was made up of four students, of which two were required to be undergraduates. Graduate students on the team were not allowed to have more than two years of graduate study and could not have their master's degree. Central's team members were sophomore Daryl Moore, jun­ ior Craig Fischer, senior Peter Watje and senior Tory Zundel. Senior Rod Hansen was an alternate. The contest involved six pro­ gramming problems which each team had to solve in the least amount of time possible. As each team completed a problem they would submit it to a judge on a disk. The judge would copy the program onto a different disk and take it into another room to run the pro­ gram and see if it actually solved the problem. "If the format is not correct or if something is left out, then the program does not solve the problem, " Central's adviser George Town said. Faculty advisers from the schools served as judges. The contest was sponsored by the Association for Computer Machinery and was underwrit­ ten by AT&T. Central hosted the north half of the Pacific region, including Washington, Oregon and Idaho schools. The south half, mostly Cali­ fornia schools such as Stan­ ford, the University of Califor­ nia at Davis and the Univer­ sity of California at Berkley, simultaneously ran a contest equal in size. The two regions were connected by computer and ran as one large contest. Participants finished at ap­ proximately 6:15 p.m. with Stanford University winning the contest.

Just the word. No where your personal or political ideologies stand, consider very carefully the prospect of having to take a gun, raise it, aim it and fire it at another person — someone who will do the same to you if you don't move first. If that still doesn't move you, consider very carefully that one of those people may be you — or someone you know. In growing numbers, young Americans in the active military or military reserves are being sent to Saudi Arabia, ostensibly to serve their country by defending U.S. interests against aggressors from Iraq. Among them are a handful of Central students. Not only do our nation's pundits almost unanimously agree that armed conflict in the Middle East is inevitable, but just this week a United Nations resolution clearing the way for an attack on Iraq was approved. The action removes most of the roadblocks — international reluc­ tance to support U.S. military policy in the area — and in effect, gives the go-ahead for fighting. If that still doesn't move you, if you still think all that's going to happen in the Middle East is boring ma­ neuvers and CNN footage of pickup volleyball games, consider very carefully two things: 1. As of Monday, more than 50 U.S. servicepeople have died in Operation Desert Shield, according to the Associ­ ated Press — and no shots have yet been fired. 2. Before departing for duty, all servicepeople must com­ plete a last will and testament. They must settle their bills and debts. They must say goodbye to their friends and loved ones as though — and just in case — it might be the last time they see each other. This is serious. Most of the people in the college-age generation have never experienced a war, vicariously or otherwise. Vietnam is ancient history, as incomprehensible as fifth- century Punic to someone born in 1971 or 1972, someone who remembers little outside the Reagan/Bush era and its Grenada and Panama police action-in-a-can conflicts (just heat 'n serve). Most of us have never personally experienced the ag­ gressive, boozy patriotism that is unique to wartime — and the thin veneer of fear it camouflages. Most of us have never experienced the nail-biting that occured each time the phone rang or the mail arrived, making us think of the uncle or cousin or brother or son off in combat, doing the locals proud. Most of us have never experienced the solemn pageantry of a military funeral, wincing each time the guns roar in wordless tribute. And most of us don't know wholesale death. These are the realities of war for most of us. They're also the realities of war for them. We at The Observer talked to some of the departing servicemen. They said they're excited. And they said they're scared — for their families, their girlfriends, for what they can't see waiting in store for them.. And whether or not we support or vilify President Bush or Saddam Hussein for their policies, their rheto­ ric or their actions, no matter what our armchair opinions might be, we should be scared for them.

It is, however, about reality. In these troubled times, issues become so confused. This decade's emphasis on just treatment, equal opportunity and nondiscrimination has gone so far many have forgot­ ten what it's all about. I don't know for sure, but I haven't see anybody around campus with their head shaved talking about bashing gays. I think we have all learned to accept that homosexuals exist — whether we like it or not — so why the special treatment? Personally, I think the sup­ port group available to these people is an excellent use of our university's limited re­ sources. It's no secret their acceptance within society is troubled at best. The support this group pro­ vides may help them cope with the many uncertainties which lie ahead for them. However, I haven't seen any campus clubs dealing with heterosexual behavior. Why not? Probably because it's an asinine idea. I can see it now—let's start a club for men who enjoy having their way with women. They can get guest speakers like Larry Flynt (publisher of "Hustler" magazine) to discuss their sexual inclinations. How realistic does that sound? The point is, state money, and ultimately money not available to other clubs on campus, will be used to fund activities re­ lated to sexual preferences. It is my understanding and hope these funds were ear­ marked for the pursuit of higher education — for such things as bringing in speakers and trips to seminars address­ ing subjects related to the many courses of study offered by this university. Let's put things in perspec­ tive — these people don't need a club of their own. They're welcome to join any club on campus. Because when the dust settles they're busi­ ness, psychology, math, phys­ ics, etc., etc. majors just like everyone else. John S.

Monopoly on flight training unfair to some In the article about Midstate Aviation (Oct. 25), I feel my comments were misinter­ preted. First, I do not have a prob­ lem with Midstate's billing policies. I do have a problem with their attitudes toward students. Examples include remarks such as I shouldn't be in the profession if I don't have the cash, being askedif I would like to buy the equipment, and being told to "get a job" be­ cause I can't get financial aid. Midstate is a business and we students, as customers, deserve better treatment. The quality of flight instruc­ tion at Midstate is extremely good. However, I'm tired of Midstate's attitude and there are others who feel the same. Dr. Envick, when the con­ tract comes up for renewal, please give this some thought: Students should have the right to fly with whichever flight school they choose. If the FAA recognizes it, why isn't it good enough for Central?

So we plan to keep doing what we're doing — ex­ cept occasionally libeling you kind people — and do a few new things as well. For one thing, I'm not going to write this stupid column anymore. Why, you ask? Well, first, I don't have anything interesting to say, as you might have already guessed. And second, I don't want to. Instead, well turn this space over to anyone who wants to fill it — staff re­ porters, editors, and students in general. The criteria for acceptable submissions are few — you must be interest­ ing, campus-relevant and current. True facts would be nice. A good sense of humor will give you an edge. More changes are in store — the redesign we did this quarter was a good start, but we still could be putting out a better-looking paper. We'll try to improve in our coverage as well — the letters we sent out to quoted sources the past few weeks asking how we've been doing have revealed a not-very- shocking ambivalence in student, staff and faculty attitudes toward The Ob­ server. More than a third said their quotes were inaccurate or out of context. A few said our reporters were hide or ill-pre­ pared. One or two have decided they're not going to chat with us any longer. That's disturbing. All I can say is, we're trying to get it right. Really. We're not just dicking around up here in Bouillon 227, eating Taco Time take­ out and reminiscing about Mike Bush. Sometimes some­ thing that passes for profes­ sional journalism occurs. Once or twice a week, even, if we get really inspired. Well, enough of that. I thought that since we spend all our time prying into your private lives, you should get some insight into ours. So here's us, your Fall 1990 Observer editors: Jim Thomsen, Editor-in- chief. Living proof that the description "6-1,180 pounds, blond hair and blue eyes" is extremely deceptive and should you encounter such a profile in the personals sections of The Weekly, flee for your life. Darla Hill, News editor. Darla is heavily involved in Campus Ambassadors, a Central Christian group, and in an attempt to be sensitive to her personal beliefs, we try to keep from blaspheming in the newsroom more than eight or nine times an hour. Jonathan Modie, News editor. Jonathan's wild, un­ predictable, thrill-a-minute lifestyle has earned him the colorful nickname "Jon." Maria Pugh, Scene editor. Maria is our resident cheesehead...sorry, Cana­ dian. She could be heard on KQBE-FM throughout the quarter saying "Steve...what are you doing with that pillow?" Phil Hoffman, Sports editor. Phil, who stepped in when our original sports editor went to jail, is best known as the guy who mooned the religious fanatic near the SUB Amphitheater last spring. Those of you who were there gave Phil high marks for artistic merit and technical difficulty in a truly unforgettable triumph of the spirit. Jay Pulliam, Copy editor. If there's any particular use for somebody who keeps a copy of the original "Multipli­ cation Rock" (as seen on ABC Saturday mornings) album at home, let us know. Corey Fisher, Copy editor. Anybody seen him lately? Colin Whitely, Produc­ tion manager. He hates the Lovin' Spoonful but loves Simon and Garfunkel. Huh? Wendy Myott, Produc­ tion assistant. Another irony at work — Wendy, by far the quietest among us, displays a definite affinity for high-voltage "butt rock" — Aerosmith, Van Halen and the Scorpions. Christopher Stone, Photo editor. The Observer runs a "dead pool" of people we think are going to die soon. Everybody else listed celebri­ ties, but Chris put down his ex-girlfriend. That's it for me.

GET AN EDUCATION IN SCHOLARSHIPS WITH AIR FORCE ROTC. Page 10 Thursday, November 29,1990 The Observer Scene Home for Christmas A family is reunited for the holidays by Maria J. Pugh Scene editor F aye Williams only has 13 days until she sees her husband and youngest son again. A senior in community health, Williams comes to Central from her native Ja­ maica on a scholarship for in­ ternational students. In or­ der to come here, she had to leave half of her family be­ hind for almost two years. Williams says that she keeps in contact with her husband and son through letters and phone calls. "I used to have phone bills over $100 a month when I first got here," Williams said. "Now, I've managed to keep them around $30." Williams, 37, admits her husband isn't as good a let­ ter writer as she. Still, he calls often for advice on important family decisions. Likewise, she calls whenever she has problems with her classes. Her eldest son Dave came to live with her this September. Williams said Y\is transition to a new country, seperated from half his family and all his friends,was not easy. She describes one incident shortly after he arrived, when he took a ride around town on his bike. "He rode and rode until he was so exhausted he couldn't remember where he lived or what his phone number was," Williams jaid. "It was a very frightening experience for him." "Dave is not one who adjusts very well," Williams said. After almost a full quarter here, Dave is adjusting much better though. He has made many friends and has mixed feelings about leaving them to go home for Christmas. He still misses his dad and little brother, Steve. Dave, 12, and Steve, 10, are so close in ages they have become good friends over the years. "They share their clothes and everything,"Williams said. Steve, who stayed in Jamaica, has had an easier time adjust­ ing to the family's temporary break-up. Williams describes her other son as more sociable and easy-going. "Of course, he had familiar surroundings as a comfort to him, too," Williams added. Williams credits communica­ tion as the major reason her family stays together despite the miles that separate them. When Williams'husband was offered a promotion 100 miles away from their home he called her at six in the morning to discuss the decision with her. Luckily, Faye and Dave will be reunited with their family for the Christmas holiday. While Thanksgiving is not cele­ brated in Jamaica, Christmas there is very similar to Christ­ mas here. "Everyone does a lot of cook­ ing," Williams said. Instead of drinking egg nog, the Jamaican s have their own traditional drink called sorrell. Sorrell is a short shrub with buds that bloom in November and December. The nector is usually mixed with hot water, flavored with ginger and some­ times rum. "We can drink egg nog any­ time," Williams explained. Gift exchanges are also com­ mon with the Jamaican tradi­ tion. Williams says gifts are given at work and church, as well as in the home. Williams describes herself as someone who has "always been studying." She is a medical technician in Jamaica, but still wishes to gain more knowl­ edge with her education here. Consequently, her decision to study in a different country wasn't a shock to her family, but something they were pre­ pared for. Her husband, an accountant for the Bank of Nova Scotia, told her to take the opportu­ nity to come to Central. Williams* trip to the states, now almost a year ago, was not an easy one. After plane de­ lays and trouble finding a bus, she went to her hotel to find out that the restaurant was not open because of the New Year^ holiday. Without any food, she decided to go to Ellensburg early. Once in Ellensburg, she spent most of the day trying to find her international adviser,to no avail. Finally, residence living let her stay in one of the dorms overnight until she was able to reach her contact the next day. For most, the experience of being alone in a strange land Russ Burtner/The Observer Faye Williams and son Dave look at pictures from their lives in Jamaica. would have been terrifying, but Williams says she thought of it as a challenge. Her first two quarters at Central, she lived on campus, an arrangement she didn't enjoy. "I did not like going down the hall or stairs to go to the bath­ room or take a shower," said Williams. Eating at the dining hall was also a chore for Williams. "In Jamaica, we season our food," she said. "Here the food is very bland." Since her arrival almost a year ago, Williams has moved off campus with two other roomates, where she can cook her own food. Even with these conditions See JAMAICA /pg. 11 The best By Maria J. Pugh Scene editor M arcia Pinto sees the best and worst of both her native land of Brazil and her new home in the United States. She sees the poverty of her country, and the lost ideals of this country. But most importantly, she has the ability to take what she sees and share it with others who might not have the opportunities she's had. Pinto, 22, came to Central from Rio de Janeiro almost a year ago on an Alpha Delta Beta international sorority scholarship for women in education. She was one of 18 women out of thousands to be picked for this scholarship. Her sponsors placed her at Central because of of its education department. Pinto has declared a major in English and eventually wants to teach and translate in Brazil. Pinto said that the images she had of America and the real picture she has now are very different. and worst of both worlds • -M I % t * ti'ii Marcia Pinto paints memories of the white sandy beaches of her home in^lq6^6 °bserver "The image we get of Amer­ ica in Brazil is mostly from movies. We see huge cities like New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, along with huge nightclubs and supermarkets — everything is huge," Pinto said. "Families are shown to either have lots of problems or no problems at all. There is no middle ground." Pinto goes on to say that it was a surprise to find that problems in her country also existed in the United States. "There are poor people here and there," Pinto said. "Quality education is a concern in both countries." Despite America's failure to meet the ideal standards of the movies, Pinto says the American dream is still alive. "Inflation is constantly rising in Brazil," Pinto said. "You save and save for something for a long time, "The image we get of America in Brazil is mostly from movies." —Marcia Pinto only to find out that it is now much more expensive. "Here, you are able to save for what you want and buy what you want. That is really very impressive." Coming from Rio, a huge city, to a small community like Ellensburg proved to be a culture shock for Pinto. "Coming from a city of 11 million to a town of 11,000 could be enough to drive me what you people call cuckoo," Pinto said. She has adjusted quite well, l owever, thanks to people like her host family in Selahj who Pinto refers to as her "American family." "They are very sweet,"Pinto said, "and are always there when I need help." It was her American family who introduced her to her first American Thanksgiving. See BRAziL1/ pg.12 * The Observer 'Noises Off for musical 'How To Succeed' failed — not enough men by Samantha Swain Staff reporter Those who were cast for the abandoned musical will have u , J . , . the opportunity to take to the How to succeed in producing stage in the p]ay that has a musical without enough people really trying out? No easy matter. Surrendering to casting and staffing difficulties, Central's drama department faculty agreed that the winter quarter show, "How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying," couldn't go on. "We started off with enough women and some good danc­ ers," said director and chair of the drama department, Richard Leinaweaver. The course of events after the initial auditions moved with the same frustration of musical chairs. "It started with 10 men casted because 10 men audi­ tioned," said Leinaweaver. The musical originally calls for 22 male roles not includ­ ing the pirate dancers. "Two men were added the day after auditions but dropped because they found out they would have to cut their hair," said Leinaweaver. "A non-university couple was added but one had to go to the hospital, so they dropped out. We had gained four one day and lost three the next." The audition turn out was not the only problem affect­ ing the production. The department's set design shop had already been a week behind schedule and the construction work needed for the musical required 14 sets. In addition to that, there was no accompanist or stage manager to create the proper rehearsal atmosphere. "We were choreographing something that would take serious alteration. We were going ahead, but limping," said Leinaweaver. Music director Sid Nesselroad, choreographer Christine Patterson, and di­ rector Richard Leinaweaver met and decided they could not go on with the produc­ tion. It was brought up with the faculty in the drama de­ partment and the decision was accepted. Canceling the production has not hindered the motiva­ tion to work towards a sucessful musical for next year. " We are counting this as an abberation" said Leinaweaver, "The music director and I will meet to determine what did not happen so we can see what to do next time." The drama and music de­ partment are working to­ gether to hopefully create a joint musical theatre major. The process is expected to take two years to go into effect but according to Leinaweaver all but three courses are already in exis­ tence. "The major will incorporate a lot of music, dance, and the­ atre," said Leinaweaver. been scheduled to fill the empty slot. The farce, "Noises Off," by Michael Frayn was agreed upon by drama faculty as the new winter production. The cast includes six men and four women. "I hope to cast it out of the "How To Succeed" cast, an act of fairness and kindness," said Leinaweaver. "The play is a real ripper, it's not an easy ripper though. I have seen produc­ tions that aren't very funny and some that are absolutely hilarious. I think the cast will be capable of carrying it off," said Leinaweaver. The newly scheduled show, "Noises Off," can be seen Jan. 25, 26 and Feb. 1, 2. Thursday, November 29,1990 Long distance family celebrates overseas What's Happening From JAMAICA /pg. 10 resolved though, she is finding this quarter very difficult because of all the basic and breadth require­ ments she is required to take. "I would like to try to finish by the end of sum­ mer," Williams said. Meanwhile, she is enjoy­ ing the difference of an American university. "In Jamaica most tests are essay," Williams explains. "Because of this there is always room to improve so it is rare that you get an 'A'. Professors feel that if you want to learn you have to learn the hard way. In Jamaica, the text books are also very outdated, so you have to get information from journals. "But the profs here seem more interested and nicer. They want you to do learn and it is easier to do well." Williams also said she has not been the subject to the "You have to know what you want, where you are going." —Faye Williams prejudices that many Afri­ can-Americans have. "In Jamaica we don't see racial differences. Everyone is one race," she said. "Color means nothing." Williams recommends stu­ dents study in other coun­ tries, even though it may mean being separated from family for awhile. She stresses though that it may not be for younger people. "You have to know what you want, where you are going," she said. For now, Williams concen­ trates on going home and reuniting with the rest of her family. She will spend 18 days there before return­ ing to school, and plans to make the best of them.

"It's a nice opportunity that every country should have in order to look at life and find things they can be thankful for — there is always some­ thing to be thankful for,"Pinto said. "And of course the food is GREAT!" Pinto was amazed at size of the turkey her American family had. "It was HUGE!" she said. "It was at least one foot high and two feet wide!" The people of Brazil do celebrate Christmas, Pinto said, in much the same way Americans do. They have a tree, and of course, Santa ClauS| who they call Father Noel. There is never any snow in Brazil though, and their sea­ sons are reversed so that Christmas is in the summer. "We have summer and less summer in Brazil," Pinto said. Another holiday Brazil cele­ brates differently is New Year's Eve. Pinto said they too have the usual parties as Americans. The difference, however, is that they also have a huge meal on that day, afterwhich most will go to Copa Cabana beach to watch a grand display of fireworks bring in the New Year. "Everyone dresses in white, the color of peace," Pinto said. "They are allowed to tYiTcyw three coins into the water, each representing one wish to the mythical goddess of the sea. Each morning, children pick up the coins. If yours isn't picked up, your wish comes true." Pinto said that another part of the tradition is offering white flowers to the goddess of the sea, as well as washing your hands and feet in the salt water as a bless­ ing. "It is a very happy time," Pinto said. Unfortunately, Pinto will not be able to spend Christ­ mas or New Year's Day in her homeland. Because it is so expensive to fly back she is spending the holiday with relatives in Chicago instead. She finds this is especially difficult because her family is going through a hard time and she misses being close to them. "My mother cried and cried when I left (the first time),"she said. "I cried^too." "My father is very proud of what I'm doing even though he mentioned that this thing is getting a little expensive," Pinto said. She even misses her 19 year-old sister Aline, who she's shared a room with all of her life and argued with a lot when she lived at home. "My sister is a very funny person," Pinto said with a smile. Meanwhile, Pinto plans to get her degree this summer and then attend graduate school, hopefully at Central. She said she may consider a job here, but hopes to go back to Brazil and teach university students and adults. "I hope to give people insight to what I have expe­ rienced here," Pinto said. "I hope to have a chain effect." Pinto explains that in Brazil there are many children who never even dream of going to school. "Education isn't for every­ one like it is in America," she said. With seventy of the popu­ lation of Brazil making up the poor class, they are more concerned with surviv­ ing than education, Pinto said. "Some of my friends get frustrated with me because I see bad and good in every­ thing," Pinto said. "I like both countries. Some things are bad here, some things are bad there — I see both." It is this ability in her she hopes to share with others in the future. "I want to teach people who want to be teachers. People are sometimes narrow-minded and need someoneto shake them up."

Perhaps the greatest source of musical offerings is Central's own music department via Hertz Recital Hall. At least once or twice a week you can hear music per­ formed—from classical to jazz—either for free or for a nominal admission charge. If you are a classical music aficionado, there'll be a concert for you at Hertz this Sunday at 3 p.m. This is a Christmas con­ cert featuring the University Chorale and Chamber Choir, both under the direc­ torship of Geoffrey Boers. During this concert, the Chamber Choir will perform "Masque of Angels," a work composed by Dominick Argento with libretto by John Olon- Sciymgeour. This features nine principal parts, the chorus and orchestral accompaniment. The Chamber Choir will also perform the "Masque" tomor­ row at St. Paul's Cathedral in Yakima, at 8 p.m. If you possess eclectic musi­ cal taste, how about a guitar ensemble concert? Tomorrow night, Tom Bourne will direct the late night Guitarchestra concert at 11 p.m. in Hertz. For jazz buffs, two upcoming concerts will ensure your sat­ isfaction. First, tomorrow at 8 p.m. Central's Jazz Band I will perform with Steve Allen in Yakima's grand Capitol The­ atre. Allen is a comedian, writer, composer, lyricist, actor, con­ cert artist and lecturer. He has written 34 books and composed several thousand songs. His accomplishments also include creating "The Tonight Show," creating and hosting the PBS Series "Meeting of the Minds," and beinginducted into the TV Academy's Hall of Fame. Second, the quarterly favorite Jazz Nite happens Saturday at 8 p.m. The doors open at 7:15 and Jazz Nites are usu­ ally standing-room only, so plan to arrive early. The Hertz concertthis^uaij ter features three jazz bands and two vocal jazz choirs... that's mucho music for only $4 admission! For more info on any of these events, you can call the Hertz office at 963-1216. In the SUB is Papa John's, a Wednesday night free enter­ tainment program sponsored by ASCWU. This is an excellent chance to see and hear bands from the local club scene, such as The Divining Rods who opened the quarter's line-up on Sept. 26. While Papa John's is finished for fall, the entertainment will be in frill-swing next quarter. And one off-campus item: tonight there will be a Vat Nite, (translation: live jazz music at The Tav). The featured group is the RuelLubag/JonWikan Jazz Trio, both Central students, with Brian Kennedy on bass, from Seattle. Moreover, spe­ cial guest Jay Thomas will also come over from Seattle to blow his sax and trumpet.

PUGH Scene editor O scar Wilde once said, Til be a poen a writer, a dramatist. Somehow or other Fll e famous, and if Fm not fa­ mous, 111 be notorious." But whatever crystal ball filde was peering into at the time, he was right—right up to lis last and possibly most popu­ lar play, "The Importance of ieing Earnest", now available r enjoyment at Central's tower Theatre. ?his comical stage production, lirected by James Hawkins, |pened Nov. 16 to a packed louse. The audience wasn't disap- jinted. Playing on the script's tatural sense of wit, both lirection and acting was lique and fresh. Hawkins chose to update the llay by bringing it into the L930s, as opposed to the origi­ nal 1890s setting. Costuming id make-up gave the time phange a fantastic authentic- thanks to the work and cachings of new faculty de­ ter, Philip Signorelli. From Lady Bracknell's ex- ravagance to Cecily's simple rnty, Signorelli's touch made "these character's seem to jump Ifirom the history books, acredit |to the research and time in­ vested in the creation of cloth- DRAMA REVIEW ing and make-up. The scenery itself was equally amazing. Mark Zetterberg created an effective and versa- tileset composed of four arch­ ways on each corner of the stage. These archways trans­ formed from scene to scene, from a filigree-carved study, to arbored garden archways, and stained glass windows. All archways were placed on a raised platform, having an appearance of a marble tiled floor, giving the audience a better perspective for viewing on-stage action. But possibly the best part of the set, was the audiences ability to see its transforma­ tion. Lane, the manservent, played by Sean White Me rrim an, a butler, played by Jeff Moisen and maids Rose and Daisy, played by Kim Herron and Danielle Cherry stole the show during intermissions. Work­ ing together, and playing to­ gether, they transformed the set in front of on-lookers eyes. Jeff Moisen as Merriman, amused the audience with his Tim Conway-like portrayal of an aging and deaf Merriman, drawing some of the biggest laughs of the night. White and Herron were equally as charming as the ever-flirtatious help. Perhaps the strongest aspect of the play was the way all the cast worked to­ gether. Alan Peet as the love-stricken John Worthing, and Gregory Goessman as the trouble-lov­ ing Algernon Moncrieff worked ideally together. From argu­ ments over love and muffins, to discussions of literature and marraige, the two played per­ fectly. Not for a moment was their relationship unbeliev­ able. Likewise was the newfound bond between Gwendolen Fairfax, played by Monica Scriven, and Cecily Cardew, played by Gina Franchini. From love to hate and back to love again, these two were able to capture the strengths and charms of women in any time period. Supporting the humor was Elise K. Brinson as Miss Prism, Cecily's governess, and Chip Simmons asRev. Canon Chas­ uble. The pair were the most believable and warm romantic interests on the stage, even compared to the lead romantic parts of Peet and Scriven, and Goessman and Franchini. Both these lead couples had charming and quite lovely moments. There were lulls, however, where their devotion was less than convinc­ ing. One example of this occurs in act one, when Gwendolen returns to speak her undying love to Jack, despite her moth­ ers refusal to permit their en­ gagement. The electricity be­ tween these two actors was not as prevalent in this scene as it was in others. Such was also the case in the final act be­ tween both Gwendolen and Jack and Algernon and Cecily. One actress who radiated elec­ tricity was Christina Jones as the domineering and social- conscious Lady Bracknell. Her performance was riveting, and incredibly convincing. Her fa­ cial expressions, voice and deliveiy all combined for an effect that would frighten any young person with a similar aunt or mother. Another striking feature WMM Photo courtesy of University Relations Monica Scriven as Gwendolen Fairfax and Greg Goessman as Algernon Moncrieff in Oscar Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest." of this play was its devotion to detail of movement and expression, a credit to the work and directing techniques of James Hawkins. As prepara­ tion for the performance Hawk­ ins included rehearsals in movement, diction and style to add to the overall effect of the production. This was especially noticedbecause of the full arena style the play itself was pre­ sented in. "Full Arena" is a technique where the audience is seated on all sides of the stage, with all action going on in the cen­ ter. This is an extremely effec­ tive style considering the al­ ready casual and friendly atmosphere of Tower Theatre. Central's production of "The Importance of Being Earnest" captures all the wit and style of playwrightOscar Wilde's origi­ nal script. Director James Hawkins, along with cast and crew, lend their own original­ ity and flare to give the play an added uniqueness not found in many productions. The plot is a rather un­ likely one, the wit rather complex, but as Algernon ex­ plains in a line from the pro­ duction, "The truth is rarely pure and never simple. Mod­ ern life would be tedious if it were either and modern litera­ ture a complete impossibility." The play is dedicated to the memory of James McGiffin, late publisher and avid sup­ porter of Laughing Horse summer theatre, as well as a greatly respected theatre critic. You can see "The Importance of Being Earnest" at Central's Tower Theatre at 8 p.m. Nov. 29,30 and Dec. 1. Special Invitation to the Community I ,c & J:- PRESENTS: Wed.-Sat.

Central will tangle with Pa­ cific Lutheran at Sparks Sta­ dium in Puyallup on Saturday at 1 p.m. in a NAIA quarterfi­ nal game. The Lutes are coming off a 37- 3 win over previously unde­ feated Concordia, Wis. "We feel good about facing PLU again," said Central linebacker Marc Yonts, who was recently named the Mt. Rainier Defen­ sive Player-of-the-Year. "We need to get back to Puyallup and win one there." Yonts was referring to Central's semifinal loss to Westminster, PA., last year in Puyallup. The sixth-ranked Lutes are 9- 1, and the only blemish came against Central earlier in the season when the Wildcats raced FOOTBALL 'CAT TRACKS Last week: Defeated Greenville, III., 43-13 in NAlA first round playoff. Record: 1-0 in playoffs Stars: Quarterback Terry Karg threw for 'a s£Ircol record 409 yards. Karg also threw four XD passes. Centrales Greenville to (-5) passing yards. Next: vs. PLU at Puyallup Radio: KXLE-AM 1240 out to 28-0 lead and held on for a 31-20 victory. Central's biggest concern is PLlFs multiple-formation of­ fense, engineered by quarter­ back Mark Weekly, who passed for more than 1,000 yards this season and scored six touch­ downs. Weekly's main target has been first team All-Conference wide receiver selection Mike Welk, who caught 44 passes for more than 700 yards and scored seven touchdowns during the regular season. Not only will Central have to contain Weekly, the Lutes running back corps are among the strongest in the league. "They've got an excellent crew of running backs," said Dun­ bar of the Lutes ground attack. Central has two of its own explosive running backs in Kenny Thompson and Tyson Raley, but the passing game under the direction of quarter­ back Terry Karg has created offensive balance for Central. Despite all the offensive threats each team possesses, both have been equally impres­ sive defensively. The Lute's defense led the Columbia Football Association with 23 interceptions, and in­ tercepted at leaist one pass in a CFA record 17 consecutive games. The defense is led by defen­ sive back Peter Gradwohl, who picked off eight passes during the regular season, and tackle ne iMorem, jr J rne Observer Central quarterback Terry Karg (14) celebrates touchdown pass to Scott Chamberlain. Ed Jolly, who recorded 11 quarterback sacks this season. Central's defense is led by Yonts, Keith Ross, who led the team with 85 tackles in the regular season, and defensive back Daryl Clark, who had six interceptions. Central's offense was run- oriented in the firs part of the season with Thompson and Raley, but the passing game has flourished under Karg, who threw for a school record 409 yards against Greenville. Karg*s main targets this sea­ son have been junior Eric Boles and freshman James Atter- berry, who each caught 26 passes. In the win over Greenville, Karg threw TD passes to four different receivers, including Raley, Boles, Scott Chamber­ lain and Dick Gallaher. "It was a long time coming m (the touchdown) "said Gallaher of his first touchdown. Central rolled up more than 500 yards of total offense in dominating Greenville from start to finish, and the 'Cats hope to do it again against PLU. . "We know what they're going to do and they know what we're going to do," said Gallaher, "whoever executes the best is going to win the game." Winless Wildcats to add 3 starters by Phil Hoffman Sports editor Central's men's basketball team has been struggling lately at 0-5, but the return of three potential starters may ease some of the worry. Central has been forced to play withoutNorm Calhoun, Jason Eckert and Terry Britt, but Britt and Eckert may be eligible as early as Dec. 8. However, Calhoun won't be eligible until the start of win­ ter quarter classes on Jan. 3. Centra! did receive a big boost when junior college transfer Larry Foster decided not to redSshirt this season. The 6-4 Foster, who led the junior college ranks in scoring last season, decided to play this year because he wasn't satisi- fied with just practicing and attending classes. MEN'S BASKETBALL Central coach Gil Coleman said the addition of Foster would improve the team's out­ side shooting and provide stronger rebounding support for their inside game. Foster averaged 23.6 points and 6.7 rebounds last season at Tacoma Community College, and also converted 40 percent of his three-point attempts. By playing this year, Foster is giving up the possibility of playing at the NAIA national tournament in Kansas City. Foster started Tuesday's game at Seattle, joining backcourt mate Brian Link. Central entered Tuesday night*s game with an unchar­ acteristic 0-4 record, marking Central's worst start S3 years when it began the season 0-7. It didn't get any better for Jason Eckert Terry Norm Calhoun Central, as the Chieftains pulled away from Central in the final five minutes to pull out a 93-87 victory. Foster connected on just 6 of 22 shots in his Central debut against the Chieftains, and Central dropped to 0-5 this season. Jason Pepper led Central with 25 points and eight rebounds. Central played three road games last week on consecu­ tive nights in Montana, and depth became a problem for the winded 'Cats. "Physically, we were drained," Coleman said. "We played hard but nothing seemed to go right." Central lost to Montana Tech, 85-80, and then dropped a 92- 77 decision to Carroll College the next night. In the road finale against Western Montana, Central built an early lead behind the inside play of Greg Sparling, who scored nine of Central's first 11 points. However, Western Montana responded with a 27-3 run and Central trailed by 17 at halftime and never got closer than 16. Otto Pijpker and Jason Ped- erson each scored 15 points for Central, and Pijpker also pulled down a team-high 12 rebounds. Sparling added 14 and Pep­ per had 11. Central will host Brewster Heights Packing in an exhibi­ tion game tomorrow night and will open the regular season next Saturday at home against Simon Fraser. The Observer Thursday, November 29,1990 Page 15 'Cat matsters win tri-meet WOSC next by Greg L. Miller Staff reporter Central's men's wrestling team won a mini tri-meet tour­ nament against Highline and PLU last week. Central finished the tri-meet with 48 total points. Nick Nastri, competing in the 118-pound weight class, won both of his matches along with 190-pound Mark Bonithuis, and brothers Jason and Sandy Stevenson at 142 and 150 pounds also won matches for Central. Joe Peterson and Craig Iver- son also contributed victories for Central, which lost only three individual matches. Ed Rossich, competing in the 126-pound weight class, in­ jured his ankle in his first match and 134-pound Mitch Fairchild pulled a hamstring in his second match. Neither injury is considered serious and both are expected to return to action soon. Central physically dominated both PLU and Highline. "The team's conditioning was much better than the other teams competing in the tri- meet, even though half the team was fighting colds," said assistant coach Eric Idler. The team will travel to face Western Oregon State College tomorrow and will then com­ pete in the Pacific Lutheran Invitational on Saturday. Teams create winning splash Men's, women's squads each win two of three to kick off season By Greg L. Miller Staff reporter Central's men's and women's swimmingteams each won two of three matches last week to both improved their records to 2-1 on the season. Central beat Whitman and Whitworth at home on consecu- tive days before losing to the University of Puget Sound. Coach Bob Gregson attributed the loss more to the fatigue of his swimmers after competing three days without rest. "There were just too many meets scheduled in a row," Gregson said. Gregson said he's happy with the progress the team has shown this earlv in the season "We're a young team, and we need improvement, but the season is going good," Gregson said, "I'm optimistic." Despite the early loss, both the men and women qualified swimmers for nationals dur­ ing their matches last week. The new pool facility seems to be helping the swimmers as WPII t.Viis vpnr Head assistant coach Lori Clark said the new pool is faster and is helping the swimmers post faster times than in the past. The men's and women's teams will take a week of from com- peition and will compete next in the Pacific Lutheran Invita­ tional next Friday and Satur- dav in Tacoma. HURRY.... SALE ENDS FRI.

Hiebert named Ail-American scholar-athlete Central junior Michelle Hiebert has been named an NAIA Ail-American Scholar- Athlete for her accomplish­ ments in the classroom and on the volleyball court. Hiebert was the only District 1 selection and one of only two West coast players selected. A minimum grade point of 3.5 is required to make the team. Hiebert led Central in assists with a school-record 1531 and in serving percentage at 97.3, guiding the Wildcats to a 34-12 recordand was also named the team's most valuable player.

ACA-AC Page 18 Thursday, November 29,1990 The Observer Athletic trainers: 'And I thought accounting majors had it tough' from TRAINERS/ pg.17 The hours can be completed within five years, but not un­ der two years. This requirement is satisfied mostly by working in the train­ ing room or by working under a certified trainer in other ath­ letic related fields outside school. "Shucks, and I thought that accounting majors had it tough," Smith said. There is no formal athletic training major offered here at Central, but there is a minor offered in athletic training. According to Smith, the most difficult time of year for the trainee students is during fall quarter, when many outdoor sports are in session. Smith says that every stu­ dent trainer must put in at least 30 hours per week, but that doesn't include the extra five to ten hours of work put in each week at football and vol­ leyball games. In addition to the 30-hour requirement, the students also attend school full time. Because there is no athletic training major available at Central, Smith stresses the im­ portance of getting an educa- tion in teaching. grimage to the training room Many students end up gradu- to be taped up for practice, ating as physical education "Then it's utter chaos," said majors andbecomeboth health student trainer Kristi Gauntt. and P.E. teachers, as well as In addition to the football coaches. players there are also volley- Others have completely sepa- ball, basketball, soccer, rugby rate dreams altogether, such as Jeff Hansen.

Oermann The Tennessean There's nothing new about phony-baloney pop acts Milli Vanilli is practically part of a tradition. Over the years, there have been many hits credited to one entity, but sung by another. Here are a few of the better known: • 1959, Bill Parsons "The All American Boy" — This No. 1 hit was sung by Bobby Bare, who was in the Army while Parsons was reaping pop fame with Bare's voice •1966, Ike and Tina Turner "River Deep, Mountain High" Ike and ? •1967, The Box Tops The Let­ ter" — Alex Chilton sang, but there was no group until after the record was released. Many touring bands of the '60s did not play on their hit records, most notoriously those of the early Monkees and the Byrds' Mr. Tambourine Man. • 1968, The Ohio Express "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy"— producers Jerry Kasenetz and Jeff Katz assembled this group, the 1910 Fruitgum Co. It was not a real act. •1969, Diana Ross and the Supremes "Someday We'll Be Together" — The "farewell" Supremes song did feature La Ross, but Supremes Mary Wilson and Cindy Birdsong were nowhere near the studio when "their" distinctive backup vocals were recorded. •1978-79, The Village People "Y.M.C.A./In the Navy" — Vic­ tor Wills (the cop) reputedly sang, but the Indian, construc­ tion worker, leather man, cow­ boy and military guy were props. Many disco acts were studio concoctions. •1989, Milli Vanilli "Girl You Know It's True" — Brad How­ ell, Charles Shaw and Johnny Davis were the actual singers in German producer Frank Farian's studio. But Fabrice Morvan and Rob Pilatus appeared on the album jacket, toured lip-synching the vocals and picked up the Best New Artist Grammy. • 1990, New Kids on the Block "New Kids on the Block TV Show" — the cartoon voices aren't those of the group. David Coburn (Donnie) Brian Mitch­ ell (Danny), Loren Lester (Jor­ dan), Matt Mixer (Jon), Scott Menville (Joe) are used. • 1990, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles — 'Nuff said? ©Copyright 1990, USA Today I Apple College Information Network n vr T3 ' 23 • 56 66 63 ACROSS 48 "If I Mould Leave You" 1 Sunrit 49 Street, for short 5 Highball Ingredient SI Ending for profit 10 "Look I" 52 Pert of TOT 14 Blunder 53 Claire.

"frying to stretch dollars when you're computer shopping doesn't mean you're willing to make sacrifices. That's why you should consider the new, affordable Macintosh® Classic® computer. It has everything you need—including a monitor, keyboard, mouse, 2 megabytes of RAM, and a 40-megabyte hard disk. Just plug everything in and the Macintosh Classic is ready to run, because the system software is already installed! And, thanks to the Macintosh computer's legendary ease of use, you'll be up and running in no time. Like every Macintosh, the Classic can run thousands of available applications that all work in the same, consistent way—so once you've learned one program, you're well on your way to learning them all. And this is one cheap roommate that doesn't have trouble sharing. The Apple® SuperDrive—standard equipment with every Macintosh—reads from and writes to Macintosh, MS-DOS, OS/2, and Apple II floppy disks, which means you can share information with someone who uses a different type of computer. See the Macintosh Classic for yourself. It'll change your mind about cheap roommates.
