WA Thursday, January 19,1995 Central Washington University Vol. 13 No. 12 Taco turmoil still festers by Ryan Feeney Staff reporter What would cause the Ellensburg community to get steamed at CWU? The commercial debut of Central's own franchise. About 1,800screaming CWU stu­ dents seem to disagree with the outlying businesses and community. If you are in sup­ port of the fast food kiosk, you are possi­ bly one of many stu­ dents to sign peti­ tions in favor of Mexican fast food in the Samuelson Union Building, said Rich Corona, Central's business manager. That kind of support can­ not be ignored. "All the things that go on in the SUB we feel are there for the con­ venience of our students and be­ cause they are requested by our students," Corona said. If there was no student support for the Mexican food franchise, the he said. The Ellensburg community has different views altogether. Local business owners pay taxes, which in turn fund the university, said Ellensburg Chamber of Com­ merce President Mary Kraft. When Central engages in commercial activities, the tax dollars intended like, Corona said. Mexican food was the top choice but not neces­ sarily a Taco Bell! "Everybody keeps calling it a Taco Bell, that hasn't been determined yet." The taco turmoil began when Central commenced a series of meetings with the Chamber of Commerce to discuss suggestions and consider- "All the things that go on in the SUB we feel are there for the convenience of our students..." -CWU Business Manager Rich Corona university would not be doing it, to support the university end up taking business away from the pri­ vate business owners. Because of this, Kraft said, "some business owners have said they will stop giving money." The idea of a fast food franchise began last year when the univer­ sity issued surveys as to which type of food the students would ations from the community. The commu­ nity stressed "very loudly" that they did not want the fran­ chise tc happen, Kraft said. "In the end the message was that the stu­ dents' wants, not their needs but their wants, were more important than our (the community's) feel­ ings," she said. "The' university is there to educate students, not to be in the business of business." But the intent, Corona said, was not to harm community relations. Nevertheless, a lot of people are upset about this, despite the university's attempt to be as open as possible, he said. "The university needs to be able to respond to the needs of its cus­ tomers. The students have a cer­ tain right to request services in their building," Corona said. Could this be a prelude of what's to come? The community seems to think so. "When does it stop? When does the university quit doing it (adding other commercial businesses)? They indicate that there could be more," Kraft said. "We don't have any plans to turn it (the SUB) into a shopping mall," Corona said. The kiosk will be funded initially by money from the Dining Ser­ vices, which in turn is funded by the room and board rates that stu­ dents pay, Corona said. The food booth is expected to be self-sup­ porting, and all extra funds will be allocated to improve equipment of the Dining Services. Leftover money will then go to the improve­ ment of the SUB, he said. "The Dining Service people would like to see it operational fall quarter 1995," Corona said. control of tuition by Gregg Roulst Sports editor The proposal from the state Higher Education Coordinating Board to allow colleges to raise their own tuition has met little support and left colleges and the Legislature questioning the plan. The legislation would give state institutions, like Central, the power to raise and lower tuition at least 3 percent annually for the next two years. Institutions would, in addition, have the option of seeking an addi­ tional 5 percent increase in tuition each of those years. If the Legislature agrees to the boards' recommendations, it could mark the first time that state insti­ tutions and colleges would have the ability and option to raise their own tuition. Central spokespersons have stated that CWU was supporting the mea­ sure in light of the financial short fall after Initiative 601 undermined tax support. See TUITION/page 3 g professor receives life-saving gift by Nicole Best Staff reporter Accounting professor Pat O' Shaughnessy received a miracle. O'Shaughnessy, 59, received akid- ney transplant at Spokane's Sa­ cred Heart Hospital. He recalls the December morning that changed his life. "On the 19th of December, my wife and I didn't get home from shopping in Ellensburg until after midnight. I had unloaded the car, done an exchange on my dialysis and got to bed at about 2 a.m., intending to sleep in." Little did they know their tele­ phone was out of order as people tried desperately to contact them. And at 7:15 a.m., the doorbell rang a rare and unusual sound at the O'Shaughnessy residence in the remote area of Pomeroy, Wash. It was the Department of Natural Resources ranger's son. "Sacred Heart has a kidney for you," the ranger's son said. Without wasting a minute, O'Shaughnessy grabbed his over­ night bag and was out the door, driving 125 miles north to the hos­ pital. "I listened to music, trying to get my thoughts in place," O' Shaughnessy said. "I wasn't ex­ cited, I wasn't scared. I wasn't nervous at all, I knew they'd put me out and I'd wake up with a kidney." The donor, whose identity is unknown, pro­ vided two healthy kidneys one of which went to O'Shaughnessy, the other to an unknown recipi­ ent. He was very thankful to the donor. "Those kidneys im­ proved the life of two people," he said. Kidneys are the body's sani­ tation system. Designed with 140 miles of tubes and millions of filters, the O'Shaughnessy began dialysis in kidneys remove waste products from November 1994.

Chris Urrutia/The Observer removal of waste products and ex­ cess water through blood cleansing. Transplant hopefuls must take part in a spe­ cial blood test called tissue typ­ ing. This test reveals information about white blood cells and determines the compatibility of a donor's kidney with the patient. Each person's body contains in­ herited proteins called antigens, three from the mother and three from the father. Tissue typing identifies which antigens a person has. The donor's kidney must be com­ patible with the recipient's. "We matched on four antigens, but they do transplants with one antigen," O'Shaughnessy ex­ plained. Before becoming a candidate for a transplant, patients must en­ dure a multitude of physical tests. Any weakness may manifest into a muchlargerproblemafter the trans­ plant. "I had to have three good teeth pulled because there was danger of having an infection later on," he said. Although the transplant was a success, the body won't receive its new organ without a fight. Trans­ plant rejection may occur at any time. Most transplant patients experi­ ence at least one rejection episode. During this time, the body's im­ mune (defense) system recognizes the new kidney as different from its own. The immune system may begin to attack the new kidney with white blood cells. O'Shaughnessy currently takes nearly a dozen various drugs to prevent rejection, while simulta­ neously treating the inevitable side- effects of these drugs.

O'SHAUGHNESSY: Accounting professor beams with hope and gratitude From page 1 O'Shaughnessy beams with hope and gratitude. "A lot of people were praying for me before the transplant, and as well as everything went for me, I have to think these prayers were answered," he said. "A lot of kidney patients suffer a lot of pain in their treatments. Basi­ cally, I didn't have much of this. The care I got at Sacred Heart was unbelievable, I was in awe, it was a totally pleasant experience," he said. O'Shaughnessy plans to resume teaching at Central for his 32nd year. Because dialysis is costly, trans­ plant recipients save money. As an accountant, O'Shaughnessy appre­ ciates the economics of his treat­ ment. "After two years, you're saving $22,000to $25,000a year in costs." When asked if he received a woman's kidney, O'Shaughnessy laughed.

The Observer Thursday, January 19,1995 TUITION: Proposal could raise tuition 16 percent From Page 1 Central's Board of Directors have adamantly opposed the local con­ trol of tuition increases, but say since the Legislature has raised tuition nearly 25 percent over the last two years an 8 percent in­ crease wouldn't be so bad. "With these drastic increases, a moderate increase would have been much more attractive to me as a student," ASCWU Vice President for Political Affairs Shawn Christie said. The BOD has reserved judgment on the proposal until they see what type of budget proposal the state would come up with. "We're taking a look at these and seeing which is the less of two evils," Christie said. Already 32 community college and technical college presidents have voted unanimously to oppose the policy. The community col­ lege system believes it's the re­ sponsibility of the Legislature to fund higher education adequately and set tuition. If the 3 percent tuition increase were in effect, they would raise about $ 1.2 million each year. An 8 percent increase would raise an estimated $3.3 million per year ac­ cording to Courtney Jones, Central's vice president of Busi­ ness and Financial Affairs. The proposal could raise tuition by 16percentinthe 1996-97 school year. At the University of Wash­ ington this would be a jump in tuition from $2,907 to $3,390 for undergraduate resident students, an increase of $483 per student. The proposed annual 3 percent increase would be for inflation while another 3 percent would cover additional shortfalls and the remaining 2 percent would give institutions the ability for institu­ tional priorities, according to the Higher Education Coordinating Board. Pages Central CARES about the community by Nicole Best Staff reporter A new program at Central can help students get practical career skills while helping the commu­ nity through volunteer work. The Central CARES program promotes community service and volunteer activities, which provide help to the needs of the environ­ ment and society. Developed through contributions from the AmeriCorps National Service Network, the Washington State Campus Compact and CWU, Central CARES serves as a direc­ tory channeling volunteers to agencies. Volunteers take part in service learning, a method by which stu­ dents learn and develop career skills through active community service and participation. Service learning integrates com­ munity ser- v i c e proj ec ts into aca­ demic cur­ riculum. Eve Altizer, an Ameri­ Corps member, is the volun­ teer coordi­ nator of Central CARES. "Some of ililililil •« Bertha Hernandez volunteers her time to a Mexican tutoring them in English. Chris llrrutia/The Observer family, the benefits of volunteering are developing career skills, strength­ ening one's service ethic, support­ ing the community, and enhanc­ ing an education," Altizer said. The Ellensburg Headstart Child Development Program has worked successfully to obtain a volunteer. "I called the Office of Coopera­ tive Education and they were very helpful," said Headstart family ser­ vice worker Cami Bello. Bertha Hernandez, a social ser­ vices major, used the Central CARES program to become a vol­ unteer for Headstart. "I'm going to be tutoring a His­ panic family in English. I'm doing it for my ben­ efit and to help the family," Hernandez said. Altizer en­ courages any­ one interested in becoming a. volunteer to visit the Coop­ erative Educa­ tion Office and' explore the community ser­ vice directory. Volunteer po­ sitions are also posted on the vol­ unteer bulletin board in the Samuelson Union Building next to the espresso bar. "We've had a considerable amount of student and faculty in­ terest. We still have volunteer op­ portunities available for winter quarter," Altizer said.

Unsigned editorials and cartoons represent the opinions of a majority of The Observer editorial board. Transfer of tuition control is an ill-conceived plan Tnating he recent decision by the Higher Education Coordi­ Board to recommend to the Legislature a plan that would give public universities and colleges the ability to raise tuition at least 3 percent annually should not sit well with students. Central has seen great jumps in tuition over the 1994-95 and 1993-94 academic years — with 14.5 percent and 10.4 percent increases, respectively. As 32 community and technical college presidents said so strongly in their rejection of the proposal, tuition should be set by the Legislature. The proposal will apparently allow state institutions to raise tuition as high as 10 percent over the next two years. And much of that money would be set aside to fund $80 million in salary increases. Already students are finding it hard to make ends meet, even while working summer jobs and jobs during winter break. Many students are forced to hold part-time jobs while taking course loads in excess of 18 credits. Students born after 1971 are not eligible for financial aid unless their parents don't claim them for the previous two years on their tax returns. Now is the time for action. Write or call your student government leaders on campus and the legislators in Olympia to convince them not to proceed with this damaging legislation.

Unit No. 31530 APOAE 09833 Recent violent incidents question how laws are applied to terrorist acts To the Editor: Last week in New York, six men went on trial accused of conspiracy for planning to bomb the United Nations building, the Holland and Lincoln tunnels linking New York and New Jersey, and otter land­ marks of the Big Apple. The trial is an outgrowth of the World Trade Center bombings of 1993. The accused, all Islamic funda­ mentalists, are accused of waging a "jihad" or holy war against the United States. The most infamous of the accused, the blind cleric Sheik Omar Abdul- Rahman, never took part in the planning of the attacks. Nonetheless, he is included in the conspiracy because he gave spiri­ tual guidance to the others telling them their actions were sanctified by God. Coincidentally, last week John C. Salvi was arrested for the killing of two people and wounding five oth­ ers at Boston area women health centers. On Dec. 30, Mr. Salvi walked into Pre-Term Health Care clinic and asked 25-year-old receptionist Leanne Nichols, "Is this Pre-Term Clinic?" When she replied yes, he took a rifle from his dufflebag, said, "In the name of Jesus" and killed her. He then turned on three men in the waiting room. Men whose loved ones were seeing doctors. These women may have been get­ ting PAP smears, receiving treat­ ment for yeast infections, or they "There is nothing wrong with John Salvi other than he killed a couple of people," said a friend ofSalvi's. ... The day following his arrest, "Pro-Life" demonstrators in Virginia carried signs reading "Thank you for what you did." may have been having an abortion. John Salvi didn't know or care. He shot them anyway. Salvi then went to a Planned Par­ enthood Clinic a mile away and killed the receptionist there in the same manner. He was finally arrested two days later after spraying indiscriminate gunfire toward a clinic in Virginia. Today, some people defend John Salvi. "There is nothing wrong with John Salvi other then he killed a couple of people," a friend ofSalvi's said. The day following his arrest, "Pro- Life" demonstrators in Virginia carried signs reading "Thank you for what you did." Donald Spitz, director of Pro-Life Virginia, a Pentecostal minister, said of Salvi, "He's a hero." Fortunately, more reasonable voices were heard. "Obviously this is murder, terror­ ism, call it what you will," said Senate majority leader Bob Dole. After these incidents, one must wonder what separates the Donald Spitzs of this world from the Shiek Abdul-Rahmans? Why does America have one set of laws for Islamic fundamentalists who promote terrorism and another for Christian fundamentalists who execute it? Jayson Ringel student
The Observer Thursday, January 19,1995 Page 5 'Celestine Prophesy': A student's view To the Editor: "The Celestine Prophesy" cer­ tainly is worth reading—who could deny? I happened upon it while taking a course in miracles at the Unity Church in Spokane last year. The reviews there were varied to mute-depending upon your 'affiliatory index'(the belief poll). Being a veteran of the 'down un­ der' (south of the border/equator), the book had a very special appeal to me. However, no one appears to have a clue toward the meaning of the book! Sure, the view of the Millennium from the very top of the Andes Mountains was indeed spectacular and I would not have been sur­ prised to see Don Juan and Carlitos watching from some distant bluff. And that rendering tug-of-war be­ tween the authoritarian 'doubters' and the struggling 'believers' would pull anyone's heart-strings. Actually, historically there may be more to the idea of the book than meets the eye. The recent probable discovery in Egypt that the age-old Sphinx was a remnant temple of a Lion King culture, which the Egyptians merely carved their effigy upon and raised the pyra­ mids as a tribute to it. While the theme of 'that', story was bor­ rowed by Walt Disney from the Japanese (who extracted it from Confucious) makes it all the more believable. Of course Edgar Cayce, the 'sleeping prophet', fortold this discovery long ago for those who believe it, but who knows for sure? In any event, the facts of "The Celestine Prophesy" are entirely different. The purpose of the book'is not to expand the horizons of the past, but rather to create the per­ ception of perception. This was done by a method of insights, which like a tuning fork once struck, continues endlessly. An insight which caught my eye after the author had closed the book, concerned the domain of thoughts, feelings, emotions, desires, wishes and wants. These items may not be 'per­ sonal' baggage at all, no more 'interior' than the forest or the sky. As Plato said, these items dance like shadows upon the walls of the 'cave', ensnaring the soul with their charms. Magic, sorcery and moonlit dreams dwell here, lorded by the god of fear. And what is beyond the vanity of 'the fire within'? The light without... no doubt.

Page 6 Thursday, January 19,1995 The Observer Why do they call it "rush hour" when nobody's moving? Columnist Opinion new and exciting A conversation with a famous actor by Kevin Cowherd The Baltimore Sun The thing about doing a column on celebrities is, right away you come off looking like a name- dropper. So at first I was a little reluctant to reveal my recent conversation with Danny Aiello. But then people said: "Oh, you've got to tell that story and I said "You think so?" and they said "Absolutely." So I changed my mind and, in a moment, I'll tell you what Aiello and I talked about, which is pretty cool, you just.wait. Whatever you do, don't look at me with a stupid face and say: "Who's Danny Aiello?" Because I'll smack you so hard, they'll be picking up pieces of your head with a vacuum cleaner. Fine, let's assume you really are that dumb. Danny Aiello is a big Hollywood star. His most recent film (I think) was "The Professional" and he's appeared in lots of other movies such as "Hudson Hawk," "Radio Daze," "Purple Rose of Cairo" and "Fort Apache: the Bronx." He also starred in "Do The Right Thing" with Spike Lee, and his portrayal of a volatile pizzeria owner absolutely stole the film, if you want my opinion. So the man is a bona fide star. Plus he seems like a very nice man and we had a nice chat, which, as I said, I will detail in a moment. This conversation with Aiello, by the way, tookplace at a Nets-Knicks game at Brendan Byrne Arena in New Jersey. I was at the game because my brother-in-law is a season ticket- holder, and I was able to leech onto hjm and sit in one of his great seats, three rows from the floor. Anyway, we were sitting there during the warm-ups when suddenly I noticed that the burly guy in front of me was Danny Aiello. God, he looked like a million bucks, too! He was wearing a black leather trench coat that probably cost more than my car, and an olive suit and white silk shirt with no tie, which is very cool. Plus he was wearing those little round shades that only cool people like Yoko Ono and Keanu Reeves wear. Frankly. I was dazzled, and I am not some rube who just fell off the See AlELLO/page 8 Tush push your way to line dancing fun FAST FACTS WHO: Sun Country Shufflers. WHAT: Country line dancing lessons.

Page 7 Thursday, January 19,1995 The Observer First rock show held at Hal Holmes Center in three years beckons good crowd Concert brings /Seattle sound9 to Ellensburg by Shay McGraw Staff reporter With Ellensburg police officers, circling the Hal Holmes Commu­ nity Center in their cars like a school of hungry sharks last Saturday night, one might never have guessed that things were going well for the first rock show held at the center in nearly three years. However, according to club events organizer Joe Wolf, "We have a really good crowd here tonight. The kids are well behaved, and really appreciate R E V I E W being able to listen to their kind of music in a live setting." The show's promoter, Jarred Hamlin, echoed the sentiments of Wolf and has plans of putting on at least one show a month at the center. The center's grand re-opening show featured Ellensburg locals Divided Sky and Blind Tribe from Seattle. Both bands were well-received by the crowd and delivered top-notch perfor­ mances. The night got off to a late start as Divided Sky hit the stage more than an hour later than scheduled, warming up the crowd for Blind Tribe. Divided Sky singer and CWU senior, Matt Millikan, said he enjoyed playing the show, but had hoped for a larger turnout. "Other than that and some problems with the sound system, I really liked playing the show and would do it again," Millikan said. Divided Sky ended their set with an impressive instrumental jam session, which served as a proper introduction for the headliner, Blind Tribe. After a few short songs, Blind Tribe turned the once near- dormant community center into a makeshift mosh pit of about a dozen. The hall came alive as Blind Tribe played a long set of their own numbers, including a couple of impromptu cover tunes. By this time, the crowd was broken-in and problems with the sound system seemed to have subsided, allowing Blind Tribe to let Ellensburg taste a little bit of Seattle.

Page 8 Thursday, January 19,1995 The Observer Club favorite proves not all lemons are sour Shay McGraw Staff reporter I n nature, the lemon is universally accepted as a bitter, yellow fruit. How­ ever, its recent application in music has denied the lemon its conventional attributes, resulting in a debut release which is anything but sour. Seattle club favorites, the Lemons, have finally squeezed out their long-awaited debut release, "Marvel". The album arrives at its title and comic-like cover art from the band's preoccupation with comic book superheroes and the values they represent. The album segeus its way from one potential chart-topper to the next in the same straight- ahead tradition of punk/garage icons, the Ramones. Notably, the two have drawn a considerable amount of comparison. And although similarities between the two do exist, to lump them together as indifferent would require the addition of every vital punk outfit of the last 20 years, from The Stooges to Green Day. The Lemons have certainly carved their own niche with the aptly titled "Marvel". The vocals snarl with pop sensibility at issues such as girl trouble and self-doubt, and are backed up by short, choppy guitars and smooth harmonies that will have you singing along. From the opening track straight through to the closer, "Call It A Day", "Marvel" is a non-stop ride worthy of its title. Surefire hits include the title track, "Circle K Girl", and the beckoning "Come Ta Grips". Unless they manage to keep themselves well-hidden, the Lemons are destined to become "Seattle's next big thing." Central senior nominated for long list of impressive academic studies and credentials Anthropology and Spanish major bids for All-USA team CTrujillo entral has nominated Ellensburg senior Mike for inclusion on the 1995 All-USA Academic team, which is published by USA Today. "In a way I was surprised, but I also felt I had a pretty good chance," Trujillo admitted concerning his nomination. "The main reason I was surprised was because I went into it with the feeling I probably wouldn't get it, but it would be nice if I did." Sixty students nationwide will be honored by USA Today. Their names will be announced Feb. 3. iP- The 20 students selected for the first team will each receive a $2,500 cash prize and will be honored at a special awards luncheon. Trujillo, who is majoring in both anthropology and Spanish, has a long list of impressive academic credentials. He's maintained a 3.7 cumulative grade point average at CWU. Trujillo was also awarded a V.I.P. scholarship during the 1990 school year the Douglas Honors College exchange scholarship in 1992 the Douglas Honors College scholarship last /."S riU o. t % * r. . ... « 3AO ^CEMSfc*! *2 The One & Only Blizzard" Is Now Better Ever!

Trujillo spent last summer as an intern in the Archives Center of the American History Building of the Smithsonian Institution. While there, he studied the role of gender in advertising. He's written three essays on the subject, along with making presentations on it to Smithsonian researchers as well as at CWU. "I initially wanted to understand the role of gender in the Marlboro, Pepsi, and Covergirl advertising cam­ paigns," Trujillo said. "I found they package and sell 'the West,' youth, and the 'All-American girl,' respectively. I'd like to continue my study cross- culturally, emphasizing Hispanic advertising both in Latin America and the United States." Trujillo has already studied extensively in Latin America. He was a Rotary Exchange Student to Guaymas, Mexico during the 1989-90 school year. Trujillo also took part in an exchange program to Buenos Aires, Argentina in 1992. Additionally, Trujillo has been a volunteer in both Central r -COUPON i i i i i i and South America, working with a community improvement project and as an English teacher in Argentina, and as an assistant with the Flying Doctors of Mercy in Mexico. "They would fly into Mexico bring in artificial limbs, and distribute them — for free — to people who needed them," Trujillo said. "They also brought in a dentist for a free dental care program. What I did, mostly, was translate." After graduating from Central, Trujillo says he'll either volunteer for the Peace Corps or go to graduate school to get a master's degree in cultural anthropology "Eventually, I'd like to be a college professor, and teach cultural anthropology," Trujillo said. , Trujillo already has a leg up in that regard as the teaching assistant for Central's Introduc­ tion to Cultural Anthropology classes. If he does return to the college classroom as a teacher, he'll be the third Trujillo in the family to be working in higher education. -University Relations We Treat You Right® CAM DO Corp '1995 ® Beg U S P»i Ofl AM O O Cosv Dairy Queen's Nefworx Telethon.

Oh, I've been around plenty of celebrities. Look, I shook hands with Jesse Jackson once at a picnic to bene­ fit the homeless. Unfortunately, I also was eating a hot dog at the time and managed to smear mustard all over his hand. Jackson was very nice about the whole thing, though. He could have made a big scene. He could have pulled his hand back and screamed: "Man, what are you doing ?! What is that, Gulden's ?" At which point, I would have had to wrestle the knife away from the guy cutting the pit beef and killed myself. (Yes, yes, the conversation with Aiello. It's on its way, I promise.) Anyway, I also met Mick Jagger years ago. OK, I say met. Actually, I was a sportswriter at the time and attending this big soccer luncheon at a New York hotel. Jagger was an in vestor in one of the teams and was also at the luncheon, during which he apparently consumed more than a few cocktails. Shortly after dessert, I went out to the hallway to use the pay phone. Which is when I noticed this skinny guy with long hair coming down the hall toward me. As he came closer, I could see it was the lead singer for the Rolling Stones, the (Greatest Rock 'N' Roll Band in the World, who promptly rapped on the phone booth and mumbled: "Where's a bloke find the men's room 'round 'ere?" In any event, I promised to tell you about my conversation with Aiello, and now I will. At the end of the third quarter — the Nets were getting waxed by 30 points — Aiello suddenly turned around in his seat. This is it, I thought. The great man wants to speak. He senses I'm a big fan. He feels a sense of noblesse oblige and has deigned to shoot the breeze. This is what Aiello said: "Seen the beer man?" Andlsaid: "Gee,he wasjusthere." And he said: "Huh."

The Observer Thursday, January 19,1995 Page 9 SPORTS Wildcats rebound against Simon Fraser by Brad Lathrom Staff reporter After losing seven straight games, Central found a spark when they upset Simon Fraser 93-74 in the conference home opener. Central was able to trap the Clans­ men and create turnovers, which were converted into points for the Wildcats. Leading the way for Central was senior guard Ryan Pepper (6-3, 190), who shot 12 of 17 from the field with five from 3-point range. Pepper had 30 points for the game. Junior forward Leon Johnson (6- 7,190) also contributed heavily to CWU's win, shooting 8-14 from the field for 16 points and leading the team with five steals and six rebounds. Also scoring for the 'Cats was senior guard David Rockwood (6- 2,180) and senior guard Jay Short (5-11,175), each with 4-5 from the field combining for 24 points. This was a very important game for Central. After losing their first conference game to Lewis-Clark State in Lewiston, the Wildcats needed a win. in their conference home opener to get on the right track. To do this, an attitude adjust­ ment was needed, head coach Gil Coleman said. "We had a team meeting," Coleman said. "I think we've been on the road so long that we were getting on each others nerves." CWU is now into conference play, where each game is very impor­ tant. Even though Central is only 7- 10, they can still win their division. "It's league ball now, it's a whole new ballgame," Rockwood said. "We started on the wrong foot, but now we've picked up." An even bigger challenge faces CWU tonight, when the Wildcats face off against the conference lead­ ing University of Puget Sound Log­ gers. UPS is similar in size to Simon Fraser, so the smaller, quicker team of CWU should be able to exploit the slowness of the bigger Loggers. "We're going to trap the big guys, we're going to try to make it a fast- break game," Coleman said. CWU is going to try to keep the ball out of the hands of the Loggers. "We're "going to pack in the zone and go for steals," Rockwood said. "Our whole goal is to not let it get into the big guys."

Bad luck seemed to rub off on the 'Cats as they lost their first confer­ ence game to undefeated St. Martin's University, 73-50. Junior guard Shannon Crocker said they didn't really think about the day affecting their play. "We were just hop­ ing it would be bad luck for them," she said. The Wildcats got off to a slow start in the first half, shooting only eight of 31 from the field. Behind by 21 points at the half, Central needed a morale We were just hoping it would be bad luck for them." -junior guard Shannon Crocker boost. Head coach Nancy Katzer gave it to them. "We talked about the need to refo- cus and start over," she said. "We beat oursel ves in the first half. We dug ourselves into a hole by shoot­ ing only 26 percent." Central came out strong in the secondhalf, improving their shoot- ingpercentage to44 percent. How­ ever, the Wildcats couldn't make up the 21-point deficit they built up in the first half. Crocker led Central with 15 points, includingtheonly 3-point field goal made by the Wildcats. Freshman forward Natalie Hutcheson came off the bench to add 13 points, four rebounds, and two steals. Crocker was happy with the way the team played in the second half. The Wildcats scored 30 points and held St. Martin's to only 32 points. See BASKETBALL/page10
Page 10 BASKETBALL: Women's basketball team enters league play confident From page 9 "We were more aggressive," Crocker said. "We realized that we could play with them. I felt like we really wanted to try and win this game." Although Central came back from the half with a new determination, they couldn't shut down St. Martin's junior guard Olivia Carrillo, who led the Saints with a game high of 21 points and 13 assists. Katzer said, "She could be the best point guard in the confer­ ence." Playing on a sore ankle that had been twisted in practice earlier in the week, Central freshman center Molly Mickle was held to eight points and four rebounds. St. Martin's crashed the boards, grabbing 42 rebounds to Central's 30. The Saints' fast-paced, trap­ ping defense forced the Wildcats to turn the ball over 27 times. "We tried to slow their pace down," Katzer said. "St. Martin's is a guard oriented team that likes to push the ball hard up court. The game wasn't as fast-paced as they would have liked it to be." Despite being unable to close the gap of the first half, Katzer was happy with their second half ef­ forts. The Wildcats played tough de­ fense and Katzer was "pleased with the overall performance of the team." The loss to St. Martin's gives the 'Cats a conference record of 0-1.

Sophomore Jon Walker was a double winner in the 200-yard freestyle (1:48.09), and 500-yard freestyle (4:59.81). Winners also include freshman Cory Ferencik for the one- and three-meter diving events (163.75 and 157.80). CWU's women edged the Lutes 109-105. PLU led 103-94 going into the final event, but CWU fin­ ished first and second in the 400- yard freesyle relay to win the meet. Freshman Kara Jacobsen was a double winner in the 200-yard indi­ vidual medley (2:16.34), and in the 100-yard freestyle (56.19). Central didn't have any new na­ tional qualifiers in the meet, but many season-best times were es­ tablished, including junior Jason Hart in the 1,000-yard free (10:22:92), senior Kevin Daniel in the 200-yard backstroke (2:04.18) and junior Kris Kluthe in the 200- yard breaststroke (2:18.00). Wildcat400-yard medley and400- yard free relay teams set season- best marks. Carianne Davis swam a 2:32.43 in the 200 breaststroke against PLU. Anna Granberg's score of 211.40 against PLU in one-meter diving was also a season-best. The next meet is Friday when the Wildcats swim against the winless Geoducks of Evergreen State Col­ lege, but they are already looking forward to the championships. "We're looking ahead to confer­ ence, we're using these next three meets to get some cuts," Corn said. The next chance to see the Wild­ cats is on Feb. 10-12, when they host the PNWAC Championships.

The Observer Thursday, January 19,1995 Page 11 C entral quiets league opponents by Jason Koontz Staff reporter The Wildcat wrestling team had reason to celebrate" as senior Brett Lucas went a perfect 4-0 at the Clackamas Invitational Saturday, and finished first in a field of 20 schools for the 150-pound division. Lucas is now 21-9 on the season. Lucas wasn't the only successful Wildcat in Oregon that day. Kevin Pine took third place in the 158- pound class, while Jason Vose (177) and Dan Hamilton (190) each took fourth place in their divisions. Pine won five matches and now has a 23-10 record. Two of his wins came via the pin route, increasing his season total to a team-leading six. Pine is tied with Chris Dockter (134) for the team lead in victories. Dockter, who was 1-2 at Clackamas, is 23-13. Earlier in the week, Central beat Yakima Valley College 31-10 in a dual meet. Improving their record to 5-2 with six duals remaining, the 'Cats won five of eight wrestling matches and picked up a couple of forfeits for the win. Chad Hendricks (126), Lucas, Adam Scanlon (158), and Andy Boe (190), all wrestled to victory. YVC coach Bob Spain was so impressed by the 'Cats perfor­ mance, he speculated Central could finish in the top two or three at nationals. Spain also commented favorably on the depth of the Wild­ cats. "I think we have a good chance at making a run at the title if we have everybody healthy, get some good draws, and wrestle to our poten­ tial," Wildcat head coach Nick Dougherty said. The mat-men have plenty of time to savor their success, for they are idle until next Thursday, when Simon Fraser comes to town for a dual meet. WILDCAT NOTES: CWU wrestlers have two more chances to qualify for the NAIA national meet. These chances are Jan. 28 at CWU's invitational and Feb. 25 in the Pacific Northwest regional championships. So far, seven Wildcats have qualified for the meet. Central's record is now 5-2 in duals. They are 1-1 against four-year schools and 4-1 against junior colleges.
