The bill is an addition to a current Revised Code of Washington and calls for pro­ grams that would deter un- $ derage drinking and strategies for combating alcohol prob­ lems both on and off campus and at communal student residencies, such as frater­ nities and sororities. ' "It all stems from the inci­ dent at the U.W. last fall/' said Jack Baker, advisor to the Drug Abuse Prevention Program Education Referral at Central. "A lot of people are taking heat for that." Last fall a University of Washington student was hit with a bottle outside a fra­ ternity house during a party that got out of hand, leaving her blind in one eye. The new bill requires com­ munal student residencies to register with the state de­ partment of licensing and submit such information as the number of students liv­ ing in the house, delegate a communal residence opera­ tor, who is responsible for the actions of the house, and sign an affirmation stating no liquor will be allowed on the premises. Also by registering with the state, the communal resi­ dence must consent to in­ spections by the department of licensing. According to the bill, the discovery of liquor on the premises will be prima facia evidence that liquor was consumed. "It is a very strict bill," Baker said, "the penalties of which could really deter such actions at fraternities.'' The penalties range from a $1,000 fine for first offenses, to revoking the operator's li­ cense for a third offense. Also, the operator of ve­ hicles can be held liable for accidents or damages that mayresultfromliquorrelated incidents. The bill also prohibits any liquor on campus, meaning all residence halls and uni­ versity housing. Previously, the use of alco­ hol on campus was restricted from minors and allowed for persons of legal drinking age. Now it is illegal for anyone to have or consume alcohol on state university property. "They're trying to deter people from drinking," said Baker. "It has become a big problem, people shouldn't have to rely on alcohol to have a good time." Wellington the Wildcat... MS WM&. wmm •mmm. mmm. •A-VSSA WMm it mmmmi * i s.

Northwest espresso rage influences dining hall by Courtney Daisley Staff reporter Central's Dining Services has allocated $17,400 for the pur­ chase of an espresso machine to be installed in the Studio East dining hall. The machine was purchased from Dining Services' annual $75,000 furniture and equip­ ment budget, which is used for repairs and replacements in addition to new purchases. "We knew espresso was a heavy item in Ellensburg and on campus, so we decided an espresso machine in the din­ ing hall would really benefit customers," said Tom Ogg, di­ rector of Dining Services. "We're enthralled with it. It's a good quality machine, effi­ cient and sanitary. It will make a nice enhancement to the campus," he said. Rumors that jobs would be cut or reassigned due to the purchase of such an expensive machine are false. "No jobs will be cut. If any­ thing, well have to shift more staff over here. We are antici­ pating at least 300 more cus­ tomers after it's installed," Ogg said. Dining Services' reached a decision to purchase an espresso machine last quarter. After research and a field trip to Seattle to examine prospective machines, the Acorto 990 proved to be the best choice for Central, Ogg said. The 990 can make up to 240 shots of espresso, 150 lattes and 120 cappucinos per hour. Aside from adding milk and emptying coffee grounds, the machine is completely self- service. The espresso machine will be the centerpiece of a new take-out breakfast system Dining Services is planning to implement beginning in March. Students will be able to se­ lect breakfast items from Snapple and Poptarts to Nutrigrain Bars and espresso. "People want to eat on the go. They like to be able to graze throughout the day. Take-out breakfast will fit these needs," said Ogg. He said the abilities of the Acorto 990 far outweigh its cost. "Food service equipment isn't cheap," said Ogg. "This machine will pay for itself in the long-run. The consistency and quality of it far outweighs anything else we looked at. We were look­ ing for a machine that was sanitary, speedy, and of good quality. This machine fits." Faculty Senate attempts to halt CLAS restructuring by Jill Johnson Managing editor The proposal to restructure the Col­ lage of Letters, Arts and Sciences has met with some resistance from Central's faculty. The restructuring, which would re­ duce the number of autonomous de­ partments from 22 to 13, would involve a series of consolidations. In a recent faculty Senate meeting the faculty voted to recommend the restructuring process come to halt until Central's str ategic plan is complete and there has been sufficient time to consider and evaluate specific proposals. "We are in the midst of a major plan and I rather object to any restructuring which will presume what that plan will be," said Ken Hammond, professor of geography. "I am not persuaded that there is any economic advantage (to the restructur­ ing) and I see distinct academic disad­ vantages," he said This was an unexpected response to Donald Cummings, dean of the college, who days earlier spoke of the positive feedback he had received on the pro­ posal, although acknowledging a level of free floating anxiety among faculty. "So far the reaction has been positive, people seem to be more satisfied than with any of the preceeding proposals," he said, "but universities are notori­ ously stable and when you try and make a change, people get upset." Cummings is optimistic about the restructuring and views it as a step in the right direction for Central. "Done well, restructuring and merg­ ing should help us define special strengths and niches for Central, " Cummings said. " My intention is not to weaken but to strengthen the col- See HALT/Page 2

Restructuring aimed at enhancing strengths From HALT/ page 2 lege." Students are hesitant to ac­ cept Cumming's enthusiasm regarding the restructuring. "I came to Central because I didn't like Western," said Ja­ son Walling, 20, a future pub­ lic relations major with an ad­ vertising minor. "I would like to be able to get the major I want with the specialization I need,* he said. But Walling and other stu­ dents are leery of the new prop sal because it contains langauge which appears to eliminate programs. Students who are getting a major in these programs should not be alarmed, Cummings said. "There is no intention here to leave a bunch of students high and dry," he said. "These are tough times and we are simply going to have to find more ways of doing things more efficiently." Phil Backlund, associate dean of the College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences, concurs with the dean and re-emphasized that students who have a declared major will have the opportu­ nity to complete the program. "It doesn't keep any student who is here now from finishing under the catalog they came in ' on," Backlund said. The curriculum will change duringthe course of afewyears, he said. Cummings says the restruc­ turing has the potential to be­ come something very positive for the university because it allows it "to consolidate and prune around its strengths. "Without this type of restruc­ turing you are in danger of becoming mediocre," Cummings said. "With the re­ structuring we are building off our strengths and creating some uniquely strong pro­ grams." ' But Hammond disagrees and refers to the restructuring as an administrative convenience a reason he says does not war­ rant a major restructuring of this kind. ,Ji| S!& iliMllill VAW^wAv/ArWV^WWlv.''V-VAWAVAV.y^W%%V.

the Observer Restriction Thursday, February 18,1993 Page3 by Bill Burke Sports editor Faculty Senate members attacked In­ terim Provost Don Schliesman's rec­ ommendations to limit the number of one-year professional leaves awarded, ^aimingit was in direct violation of the faculty code. Geography professor Ken Hammond said the manner in which the four choices were selected violated the code. "It's not a matter of who got them,'' ^fammond said. "It'sfirst, the way the- policy reduced the iiumber to four, and second, a procedural matter when they ( Schliesman and other deans) added new conditions quite arbitrarily." Schliesman said the number of leaves recommended was reduced in response two separate.proposals by Gov. Mike Lowry to limit the amount of money spent on sabbatical leaves. The money is being spent even when no classes are taught, Schliesman said. i - - 11 1111 TTTI-rr II i. i 11 m::n:nn:.1^n~.::ini~T|i'rjgiwiif w ini r ~» ntrririn~i*Tnrrnirni'-'-'" The section 9.35 of the faculty code states that up to 75 percent of a faculty member's salary will be paid to the person on leave depending on the posi­ tion and description of the leave. Schliesman said he looked at ways to reduce the number and consulted with other deans before deciding to make the new restrictions. "I felt those who have never gone on leave before should have priority," said Schliesman. The other restriction imposed by Schliesman limits departments to one leave per year. Schliesman said that if more than one leave was given to one depart­ ment, students and other staff would suffer. "One of three things could happen," he said. "The professors' colleagues could pick up the extra classes, there would'be minimum funds available to hire a part-time professor, or the courses would be cancelled." Schliesman said the expected increase in enrollment at Central also contrib­ uted to his decision.

"But, if 10 or 17 professors take a leave, youhave too many students for the amount of faculty." Schliesman said Washington State University made similar cuts in leave last year and other state universities have to make their own decision con­ cerning leaves and budget. Psychology professor Warren Street was on the FacuTty Research and De­ velopment Committee which ranked the 17 leave proposals based on crite­ ria outlined in the Faculty Code of Personnel and Procedure. "The Senate expressed its strong dis­ pleasure with the reduced number of awards," Street said, "but primarily with the way the provost and deans were applying a new set of rules." Street said the applicants and com­ mittee used a certain set of criteria in making and judging the proposals and in making his recommendations, Schliesman ignored the standard pro­ cedure. "It never happened this way before and they're applyinga new set of rules," said Street. Hammond said the restrictions vio­ lated section 9.10 of the Faculty Code of Personnel Policy and Procedure by adding two new criteria not in the code. Sections 9.10 and 9.15 of the code ate that leave eligibility is based on a faculty members status at Central and the merit of the proposal to the university, professor, and state. "I don't see it as a violation," said Schliesman. John Brangwin, student representa­ tive to the Faculty Senate said it's a matter of sour grapes. "If 17 people apply and only four are selected, the people that don't get ac­ cepted are going to get ruffled feath­ ers," he said. The proposals were submitted to Schliesman in an order ranking them from one through seventeen. The ranking was based on the merit of the individual proposal. Schleisman recommended numbers two, three, nine, and thirteen be ac­ cepted. Schliesman said the number one merit-ranked proposal eliminated it­ self because the professor had already taken a leave. "The faculty is concerned this type of procedure can discredit faculty leave," said Street. Schliesman said leaves are often seen as a vacation, but they serve an im­ portant part in the faculty program. "The information and skills learned by the faculty on leave is fed back to the students," he said. "I make a recommendation the presi­ dent can do what he wants with," he said. "The final decision is up to him." Also a special "mystery"guest artist!

Silent majority in need of wake-up call It is difficult to say what motivates an individual, what causes them to think, what prompts them to react. No one wants to take a risk, and that's understandable, risks are scaiy especially when they involve your opinion. However, it is impossible to experience personal and intellectual growth without occasionally stepping away from the crowd. Central is considering some major changes— changes which will drastically impact the quality of education avail­ able at this university. A proposals is out calling for the restructuring of the College of Letters, Arts and Science, and a conversion from a quarter to a semester system. There is a bill in the legisla­ ture requiring a student be appointed as a voting member on Central's Board of Trustees. There is also a bill that would allow individual universities to set their own tuition. These are proposals which directly impact you as students, faculty and staff. A few of you have written to voice your concern or support regarding these changes. No matter what your opinion, congratulations for having one. Apparently you are in the minority on this campus. To the rest of you who are operating on the wait and see approach, this is your wake-up call. Today these issues are proposals— they are open for discussion and up for revision. In the future they may become reality, and at that point your opinion will mean nothing. College is a time to gain independence and step out on your own. Just because there is an administrative or legislative proposal to make a change, does not mean it has to be accepted or enacted. Kick, scream, holler...do what ever it takes! Use your voice and take a risk. If you can't take a stand in college— a self-proclaimed haven for diverse thought— chances are you will neyer take a stand any where else in your life. It is possible that these issues are not significant enough to warrant a reaction. It could be that EVERYONE is in favor of EVERYTHING Central has proposed during the past year-but not likely. If you are not happy with the direction this university is heading, now is the time to speak up. If you don't know what direction this university is heading, now is the time to find out. No one will benefit by your silence or you ignorance—not even you. REAUY?MYPOH&} wmoor TOO,LAST WEEK, LOST A rm PAPER OH MY COHWEK. MY mF tMT EtEH GIVE ME A BREAK1. Ymimn?

The Washington Student Lobby enthusiastically sup­ ports House bill 1005 and Senate Bill 5296. We feel it is essential that students be voting members of the Board of Trustees of our public universities. Thirty other states have stu­ dent trustees. They have brought an additional and necessary perspective to boards and have been generally well accepted. The most compelling reasons to include student trustees is that students are the univer­ sities consumers— every deci­ sion made by the governing boards had a direct or indirect impact on those consumers. Therefore,inclusion of students in that decisionmaking process makes sense. Student trustees would pro­ vide a clear and focused voice . on behalf of those paying (up to) one third of the total cost of a higher education through tu­ ition and fees. They would also have direct input on a variety of quality of education and quality of life issues in the university envi­ ronment.

That's right, 13-0. Did you know that the men are now 22-6, with a seven game winning streak? Maybe you should take some time out of your busy schedule to care. I went home, to a high school basketball game. I was amazed to see the stands packed. There were easily three times as many fans at that game than at the last Wildcat game. Mind you this was not the night of a big dance, or a big rivalry, in fact the team is in 5th place with a losing record. V But that high school has more pride in its program than Cen­ tral has in its very talented men's basketball team. Take a look at the wild times that the fans at Cameron In- £ door Stadium have at Duke games. They camp out in front of the gym several days before every game in order to get seats.

Eric Sawyer Prices ring up high phone bills To the Editor: I recently decided that 1 am paying too much for long dis­ tance phone service to the Se­ attle area. 1 contacted Ellensburg Tele­ phone (AT&T), their rates to the area 1 call most frequently were: $.17 per minute during the day, $.13 at night. They offered one calling plan, Reach out Washington which costs $4 to connect and $8.50 per month to use, plus time beyond the first hour. 1 contacted MCI, they have a plan called Easy Rate. The rates for this plan are $.22 per minute during the day, $. 10 at all other times. This plan has a base cost of $4.50 per month. The problem is that I live in a dorm. Currently MCI cannot service me because of a con­ tract Central has with AT&T. This contract is costing stu­ dents money. Calling 245 minutes a month with AT&T costs about $38, with Reach out Washington $32 and with MCI $28. I would like to go with MCI. But because I live in a dorm I don't even have a choice. This is an issue that needs to be looked at. Loyd Moore No skirting Gays in the military To the Editor, I live in fear of turning on the television and discovering that the new Marine Corps uniform is a flowered sundress and high heels. Zachary L. Smith Homophobia not result of fear To the Editor: TheletterinFeb. 11 Observer titled,"Homophobia Blamedfor animosity," and other recent newspaper accounts of gays inferring that straight soldiers fear them, or that they will be outperformed by ahomosexual indicates a misunderstanding concerning the hostility di­ rected at them. Young, aggressive males don't think gays are superior just the opposite is true. The ani­ mosity is areflectionofthefact that heterosexuals find the thought of any kind of sexual contact with the same sex re­ pulsive, and this repulsion ex­ tends toward people who emu­ late that orientation. The aversion is not the result of fear of homosexuals as im­ plied in their coined word, "homophobia," it is an instinc­ tive species-preserving factor. No amount of lecturing, train­ ing or punishment will change such an ingrained sentiment in young aggressive males. Just as women would resent having to live in the same bar­ racks as men, so heterosexual men resent having to live with gays. The heterosexual will take offense at any attempt to assume a role toward him which he reserves for himself toward women. Older, more experienced people are less inclined to dis­ criminate, so if there is ever to be a friendly socialization be­ tween heterosexuals and out- of-closet homosexuals, we'll have to establish it in other segments of society first. Then if it becomes common enough, perhaps aggressive young soldiers might accept it, but let's not make them labo­ ratory animals in a new ex­ periment. Having compassion for people who have a problem of being different is commendable, but let's have compassion for the untold number of young mili­ tary personnel, both straight and gay who will suffer the consequences of our folly.

Central is requesting this money from the state government to fund a new, techologically-updated science facility. "Science is changing in the way it's taught," said Duane Skeen, administrative assis­ tant, provost and vice-presi­ dent for academic affairs, indi­ cating the transition soon to come. Skeen said the science de­ partment has gone through a lot of change in the way it has been housed. Dean Hall took its place, being built in 1968. Skeen said Dean Hall "was never intended for a new addi­ tion." Dean Hall was built to func­ tion as a single unit. Initially, administrators planned to add on to Dean Hall, but structural constraints posed by existing designs proved to be a stum­ bling block, Skeen said. He also said there is a lack of a good location around the building for a new addition. A brochure soon to be released —in • i • ii i 111 i *11! 1 1 » ! ii ri tNTOY UBS SC1KNCX COUK1YAW PORTAL explaining the new building shows pressing concerns with Dean Hall. Among them, the brochure cites that "current building codes in energy use, accessibil­ ity and seismic/safety stan­ dards are not met. ..An obsolete air handling filtration system stands in potential violation of OSHA, WISHA, and federal standards for science instruc­ tion." Skeen said, "As long as we exercise caution (in the use of the air handling system) things should be O K " The Washington State Capi­ tal Project Request for the 1993-95 fiscal period says that another major problem with Dean Hall is that the current laboratory configuration limits program access for people with disabilities. Recent studies by members of the educational community resulted in the proposal for a new science facility to replace the current facility in use. In 1991...chemistry, physics, and biology experts from West­ ern Washington University, the University of Washington, and Eastern Washington Univer­ sity commented on the existing condition of Central's Science building. Together they developed a list of essential needs. According to the Capital Project Request, the structure will contain approximately 185,000 Gross Square Feet of floor space. Dean Hall's exist­ ing floor area is 68,702 square feet. The additional space in the new building allows for present needs plus future enrollment flexibility. Also, according to the Project Request, the estimated total cost for the building stands at roughly $87.2 million. Skeen said the state appro­ priated $193,500 toward the project to develop preliminary floor, site and interior space plans. Skeen said correct budget es­ timates for the project are es­ sential. If a mistake were to occur in funding, the budget would likely not receive a sec­ ond hearing. Skeen said there are two main phases to the process of design­ ing the building. There is a pre-design phase, involving what is known as a Program Document. This in­ volves input from the affected faculty, in this case the science department, who will be using the actual structure when it is complete. This document then goes to the architect, who translates the Program Document into a building plan. The formal schedule outlined in the Capital Project Cost Es­ timate said the pre-design phase started in January of 1992. The actual design work will start in July of this year. The formal start of construc­ tion will occur in November 1994, and it is scheduled to be completed by Januaiy 1998. The Project Request said the natural science disciplines will be affected by the transition to a new facility. These are the biological sciences, chemistry, physics, and science education. Changes set for the new fa­ cility are wide-sweeping. For example, in both the biologi­ cal sciences and chemistry sections there will be "...in­ creased capacity for students and instructional equipment plus added space for safer working and teaching condi­ tions." Physical equipment will also be greatly improved. The Project Request said the project will replace the move­ able equipment now in use, most of which has not been replaced since Dean Hall was occupied in 1968. Parking for the duration of the project is undoubtedly a concern on many people's minds, and this will be taken care of, Skeen said. Student lends a helping hand in the community by Tracy Veness Staff reporter In college there is little time for anything but studying, see­ ing your friends on occasion, work, and more studying. Rarely do you find a student who has time for all of this and who also helps in the local community as well. Kathlene Fujiwara, 22, a law andjustice msgor, is one of those students who in her four years in Ellensburg has managed to not only involve herself in campus activities but in the community as well. As a Guardian Ad Litem, a court advocate for troubled youth in Kittitas County, Fujiwara has involved herself in a program that represents youth who are a product of abuse and/or neglect in our area. To be a Guardian Ad Litum, Fujiwara had to go through several months of training and classes covering such topics as child abuse and sexual assault. "My role is to provide support to the child," said Fujiwara, "I would defi­ nitely recom­ mend to anyone who is seriously interested in working with kids that the Guardian Ad Litum or any of the thing I men­ tioned are good programs to get involved in." Debbie Reynolds / The Observer Kathlene Fujiwara "I investigate the situation, get to know the family in some cases arid the child, physically represent the child in court, and make recommendations as to what should be done with the child." If the youth does not go home, Fujiwara said he or she is placed in foster care, group homes, day-care treatment, or various other programs. Fujiwara also recently com­ pleted an internship in St. An­ thony, Idaho where she worked at the Idaho Youth Service Center. The Youth Service Center, a group home for troubled youth, practices a rare form of coun­ seling called "Positive Peer Culture," Fujiwara said. This therapy deals with liv­ ing for the present-day, and is know as "reality therapy," she added. "Their therapy is there own group If a kid is acting up or causing trouble they have the other group members to deal with," Fujiwara said. As an intern in Idaho, Fujiwara was able to facilitate her own group, observe group sessions and work one on one with kids who needed her help. Fujiwara has also partici­ pated in Students and Staff in the Education and Prevention of Sexual Assault as an advo­ cate for victims of sexual assualt, and Circle K, which works with underprivileged children. Fujiwara feels good about her contributions to those children who were less fortunate than herself when she was growing up, and she also has "come to realize that you can't give up on kids that are hopeless " "I would definitely recom­ mend to anyone who is seri­ ously interested in working with kids that the Guardian Ad Litum or any of the things I mentioned are good programs to get involved in." As s e s sin g Black History Month by Thuy Luu Staff reporter Black history month ob­ serves the accomplishments and struggles black Ameri­ cans have experienced, but what does it mean to an av­ erage black student at Cen­ tral? One student sees it as a step to real change, and gives a positive outlook on the future of black Americans. Donnis Henry, a 20-year-old sophomore and public rela­ tions major, grew up in an interracial community in Federal Way, Wash. The running back for Central's football team at­ tributes his positive outlook to his upbringing. Henry's parents and grand­ parents lived through the civil unrest of the 1950s and 1960s. See HENRY / Page 8 by Mark R. Temple Staff reporter After only four years of exist­ ence, Central's Society for Human Resource Management has become the second largest student chapter in the North­ west. SHRM is an organization de­ signed to help get students in­ volved with professional ac­ tivities. According to James Nimnicht, Central's faculty advisor for SHRM, students are paving the way for their own careers. "Students involved in SHRM learn that they can make a difference in what they do," said Nimnicht. Human resource manage­ ment is a new field that has evolved in the last 15 years. "The growth prospective for population in this countiy is enormous," said Nimnicht. He said because the population here is changing and growing so drastically, diversity is something we need to learn to deal with. "Human resource manage­ ment actively promotes people being the best they can be while at the same time challenged," said Nimnicht. SHRM's aim is basically the same. According to Nimnicht, SHRM is an international or­ ganization with chapters in every city of any size around the world. "There are chapters in every four-year university in this state," said Nimnicht. SHRM gets students involved by helping them get to know professionals. According to Christine Mobley, the chapter president of SHRM here at Central, "Shadow Days" is one of the more interesting pro­ grams. This program gets students involved with professionals by allowing them to spend the day with an actual professional in the working world. M. m • t) Society for Human Resource Management experiences rapid growth ^We get to sit and be involved Q with them in the field" said Mobley. "We get to be hands on." Nimnicht said this program, among others, is of great ben­ efit to students because it pro­ motes internships and net- ^ working. Students actually begin do­ ing what they are learning in the classroom. Nimnicht be- See SHRM / Page 7
• The Observer Growing club is one of Northwest's largest Thursday, February 18,1993 Page 7 From SHRM / Page 6 lieves this is his "hands off approach to the student's learning. "It is vital in the employee market to be attractive and equipped," said Nimnicht. "The best way to learn is by doing it themselves. It helps be a bridge to a career." Central's SHRM program has grown fast, and it is so successful, said Nimnicht, he considers it amazing. "We gained national acclaim last year from our National Chapter by winning the Merit Award for all the activities we have participated in," said Nimnicht. "That is something that most chapters just don't achieve in four years." Most of Central's SHRM ac­ tivities include research projects, fundraisers, presen­ tations to their parent chapter in Yakima, and participation in the blood drives that are held here at Central "The students plan and or­ ganize all aspects," Nimnicht said. "We always tiy to provide our time and services." Through their recognition nationally, Central SHRM students have been granted many opportunities. "My goal," said Nimnicht, "is to get students to excel in this field and make a difference." Nimnicht said any one is welcome to join the organiza­ tion. It is not limited to just business type majors.

"Their goals should be how and in what ways they can serve, how they can help." Nimnicht encourages people to take a position and stand up for what they believe in. As president of SHRM, Christine Mobley believes that joining the human re­ source major was the best academic decision she ever made. "I love it, and SHRM supple­ ments it so well," said Mobley. SHRM at a local, national and international level is or­ ganized to promote people in organizations. As a professional organiza­ tion SHRM stresses the im­ portant contributions people can make. "People go to college to learn a career, and there they have to deal with people," said Nimnicht. "Any and all majors would be greatly benefited by attend­ ing SHRM andlearningto deal with people." \ \ \ ® Plasma Donations __ Needed!

Page 8 Thursday, February 18,1993 The Observer Student recalls the past to see the future From HENRY / Page 6 His grandfather, a Baptist minister from the South, marched on Washington, D.C., saw Martin Luther King make his famous WI Have a Dream" speech, and witnessed cross burnings. Henry's parents also experi­ enced the overt racism of that era. Though they want him to know about the historical struggles of blacks, they hope he won't have to deal with the situations they did. He has had positive experi­ ences at Central since he transferred here from Walla Walla Community College this fall, but he still has to deal with being a black man everyday. When people first meet Henry, they tend to stereotype him as an athlete just because he's black, he said. "I'm a student first and an athlete second," he added, say­ ing that education is the key to success for minorities. One form of education is black his­ tory month. "It needs to be celebrated. People of other races need to know what Black History Month is about." ' Henry respects all of the black leaders, including modern leaders Rev. Jesse Jackson, and Nelson Mandela of South Af­ rica, but he said minorities, blacks in particular, have to unite to affect change. Leaders are nothing without support­ ers. "Things have improved to a certain extent," Henry said. "There's room for improvement for all minorities." In his opinion the Los Ange­ les riots could happen again, though, in retaliation against the system. "It'll keep coming 'till something's done," he said, but he doesn't see violence as the answer. "You have to go through the system. Not beat it, but be the system." MUMBLEYAK not just another "mere image" of the past by Elizabeth Maw Staff reporter When local band Mere Image changed their image, members decided a new name was also in order...and MUMBLEYAK emerged! The bandmembers named themselves Mere Image three years ago when they played the Ellensburg circuit, singing songs, called cover songs, writ­ ten and performe by other art­ ists. "Now we don't do cover songs. We write our own music, so we needed to change our name," said Chris Curtis, who plays bass and piano, and singsback- up vocals.

by Jason Goldner Staff reporter The 17th-ranked Central men's basketball team (22-6, 6-2) begins the final week and a half of the regular season in Lacey tonight, against St. Martin's. The Wildcats routed the Saints 107-72, on Jan. 28 in Ellensburg, but coach Gil Coleman said he realized to­ night will be a whole new ball game. "We need to start with this game," Coleman said. "We need to win by starting one game at a time." District 1 leader, University of Puget Sound (16-8, 7-1), hosts third-place Western Washington University (15-9, 5-3) in another divisional ri­ valry. The game will move Central two games past Western in the standings should Puget Sound win or place Central in a tie for first if Western upsets Puget Sound. In either case, the Wildcats must win. Coleman said the team un­ derstands the importance of the Western/Puget Sound game, but he stresses the Wildcats' game comes first. "We keep the other game in mind, but our main focus is on our own team," he said. "One of those teams will win, one will lose, but it won't matter either way unless we do our part by winning," he said. Central's remaining sched­ ule includes two consecutive games against Puget Sound. The Wildcats host the Log­ gers at Nicholson Pavilion Saturday at 7:30 p.m., then travel to Tacoma to play them again next Thursday. The Wildcats wrap up their regular season Feb. 27, at Western. On Dec. 18, during the height of Central's 13-game winning streak that opened the sea­ son, the Wildcats defeated Puget Sound, 85-71 on the Loggers' home court. Two months later, Coleman „ ,, , - ' ... * Mike Spence / The Observer Central's Heath Dolven (21) shoots over Simon Fraser's David Stromwall's block attempt. the road." Central plays its final regular season home game Saturday against Puget Sound. Coleman said he hopes to see more fans cheeringon the team and wants to remind students how impor­ tant their support is. "Home crowds can make a difference," Coleman said. "We want to see more student sup­ port at our games. We're a ranked team and we want students to know and come watch us play." Central won by its biggest margin of the season, 44 points, by defeating Simon Fraser University 131-87, at Nicholson Pavilion last Thurs­ day. Forward Jason Pepper tied his career-high 31 points which boosted him into second place on Central's all-time scoring list with 1,708 points. Pepper needed 17 points to pass Ron vanderSchaafs 1,693 points set between 1984-87. Coleman said he was im­ pressed with the team's offen­ sive play. • The Wildcats hit 46-72 (64 percent) from the field, 28-30 (93 percent) from the foul line and 11-17 (65 percent) from three-point range. Central outrebounded Simon Fraser 39-26. The Wildcats had 26 assists, to the Clansmen's 14. Chad Boyer led Central with 11 assists. Central collected 12 steals, to Simon Fraser's four. Aside from J.

Page 10 Thursday, February 18,1993 The Observer Women's fast-pitch in a "League Maria Brose Contributing writer Nancy Katzer and her team of devoted Central women are working double-time to pre­ pare for the debut of Central's first-ever fast-pitch Softball team in the spring. As the new coach in the ath­ letic department, Katzer has taken on the duty of putting the new varsity team to­ gether. The team was established in the first few weeks of Oc­ tober. Katzer, a Central graduate hired last spring, is the assis­ tant women's basketball coach and teaches in the physical education program. Central's fast-pitch team has a core of 12 recruits from Washington community col­ leges. Katzer said most of the recruits are from Wenatchee. The rest of the members are students from Central who tried out in early October. "They are very competitive and very dedicated," said Katzer. aFm very excited." Central's athletic department decided last year, when they hired Katzer,. to invest in a fast-pitch Softball team. Gary Frederick, director of athletic^, said gender equity, which makes women equal beneficiaries to the opportu­ nities of the Central athletic program, was one of the rea­ sons the team got started. A budget of $10,000, accord­ ing to Frederick, to get the program off of the blueprints -and onto the field shows just how serious the department is about fast-pitch softball. c This beginning budget sup­ plies the team with new uni­ forms, necessary equipment, and a field. The field is next to the men's diamond and alongside Stu­ dent Village apartments' parking lot. Katzer said the addition of the team was also attributed to students who expressed an interest in the popular colle- Swimmers lose giate sport. Katzer explained that fast- pitch softball is closer to base­ ball than softball. The pitch sends the»ball through the air at about 60 mph. With that kind of speed there is no time for the calcu­ lated hits in softball she said. Katzer said that like base­ ball, there are three fielders to softball's four and bunts are allowed. "Fast-pitch reaction time is much less than softball's,'' said Katzer. Central will play in the NAIA District 1 league which con­ sists of five teams.

Coach Lori Clark said the results of the meet reflected several Central swimmers looking forward to districts and nationals. MI think well do well at dis­ tricts," said Clark. "We'll defi­ nitely have a better showing against the University of -meet to Loggers Scott Kelley Puget Sound then." The times were different in Tacoma due to the short course meter pool said Clark. Central swimmers are not fa­ miliar with the meter pool since they have competed on a yard pool all season Clark said "The meter pool threw the swimmers off a little and the times are hard for us to grasp," said Clark. Central swam well last week­ end and as a result, it was harder for them to stay up at this meet said Clark. Top swimmers for the Wild­ cat women were: Nicole Lindstrom in the 200-meter breaststroke, Nikki Wilson in' the 200-meter fly and Tyann Youngquist. Ben Olszewski and Kris Kluthe reeled in good times for the Central men. Going into district play Clark said her swimmers are at dif­ ferent stages in preparation. Some are resting and others won't start resting until na­ tionals. "The swimmers who qualified for nationals will be tired go­ ing into district play," Clark said. Districts will be at Evergreen State College in Olympia, Feb. 25-21. Clark said she will be taking 37 swimmers as a result of their achievements during the season. The pool at districts will be yard length which should help Central, Clark said. During the next few weeks before districts the Wildcat swimmers are going to swim regularly with some doing a little different workout than others, Clark said. Following the rest and work­ outs, Clark expects the Wild­ cat swimmers to look crisp and strong going into districts. After districts, the Wildcats who qualify will be travelling to San Antonio, Texas for NAIA Nationals Mar. 10-13. ing the defending fast-pitch national champions from Pa­ cific Lutheran University. Katzer emphasizes the im­ portance of academics for her team. Katzer said she makes sure the women know that aca­ demics come first. "I sent them all a Christmas card reminding them of their main objective,"said Katzer. The season last's from March 6 to May 22. The first game is March 6 at Western Washington Univer­ sity against the Vikings. Katzer said she "expects hard work and dedication. Together they should equal success." Wildcat notes.. .

The Observer Central women lose two playoff hopes still alive Thursday, February 18,1993 Page 11 by Billy Wagner Staff reporter There is no rest for the weary. Central's women's basketball team found out how tough the road can be with two losses during President's Day week­ end. Central lost to the Simon Fraser Clansmen 78-54 on Valentine's Day despite strong play from Central junior Karla Hawes. Simon Fraser, winners of eight of their last nine games, beat Central with solid team play. "Simon Fraser has the best balance of any team we have played," said coach Gary Frederick. Hawes closed out a strong weekend with 19 points and seven boards. "She has really played well the past few games," said Frederick. The Wildcats lost at home Feb. 13 to the Seattle Chieftans 75-71. District I player of the year candidate LaShanna White led Seattle with 15 points and 20 rebounds. • a Frederick said good defense by Central held White under her usual 20-point average. "We focused on the guards this time and zoned under­ neath to hold White and it worked," said Frederick. Hawes led Central with 18 points and 10 rebounds. Junior forward Barb Shuel, playing on her bad ankle, contributed 17 points and eight rebounds in the loss. Freshman Missy Thompson added 11 points and 10 boards for the Wildcats. Central stayed close through­ out the game, but Seattle pulled away in the last two minutes behind two quick bas­ kets by White. Central will be in the playoffs with wins in the last two games.

Temple Staff reporter Key returners and a strong freshmen class will help Central's tennis team gear up for what looks to be another promising season said head coach Mark Morrill. The men's team is hoping to improve on last season's 15-10 record and their sixth place finish in Districts last year Morrill, the men's and women's coach, is hoping to see the teams match or even im­ prove on last year's record. "We have a good team this year," said Morrill. "The men's team achieved its best finish in three years last season. We hope to improve," he said. Two key players returning from last year's team are seniors Daren White and Justin File. Third year player Justin Caldwell is also looking to improve on his record. The three freshmen players finishing the Wildcat line-up are transfer Cory Pickerell, freshmen Rich Kemp and Ro­ man Rodriguez. The women's team is coming back from a 10-15 season last year. The team finished eigth in Districts and also hope to improve their record and move up a few spots. "How you place in Districts is the key to the season," said Morrill. The return of the best doubles team in the district will help the women's chances said Morrill. Number one Nancy Cole and number two Amy Templeton both are looking to fight for the top. Morrill said Lisa Dirks, Dorina Dizon and Kim Keller also look very promising for this year. Morrill said both teams look to be adapting quite well and he hopes to see both teams im­ prove. "We hope to break even this year," said Morrill. "Again I think this is going to be a prom­ ising season." CLASSIFIEDS FUN SUMMER JOBS!
