Changes" long lines greet students by Kristl Thorndike Mast Projects Editor Electric saws o':ued and hammers pounded as students rushed to make their dorm rooms homey before settling into studies. The bunks went up, the carpets went down. and posters brought the bare • waUs to life. BO.l85, beds, and lumber for bunks lin­ ed the resid\\,nts' hallways .8 they fran· r belongings in place. tically put tfiei Stereos were hooked up and clothes shoved in closets and drawers. The Kent of fresh paint fUtered through the dorms. Students will experience some chonges in their sleeping and eating habits because policies concerning bunks and food service have been changed. This year rooms will look much dif­ ferent. All bunk beds must be free standin8. "The reasoning behind it," said Hous­ ing Coordinator Jan Maul·Smith, "is safety." According to Maul·Smith, no bunks will be allowed that incorporate clo9Cts or bookshelves.

"They could give way lit any time -' ' she said. Bunks cannot be bolted into walls this year and bunks from last. year that arc not free standing need to be rebuilt. to fit. new Sl.nndards. St.udents also have different food ser­ vice options. Three options for meals on campus are now available. Students . may choose option one'full meals seven days pet" week; option two'lunch and dinner seven days pet" week; or option three'breakfast. lunch. and dinner Mon­ thru day Friday. Traffic into the UC Commons has been rerouted also. Now students enLer and exit through what used to be the exit. All students must show 10 cards to TCC1!ive meals. Due to these variations in food ser­ vice, 10 cards need special validatton. This sent lines t.ralling hom the U.C. Commons to the Information Desk earlier t. h is week. Many studenta found them9Clves wait.4tg in other lines too. The Bookstore was swamped with studenta eagerly purcl1asing books and the Administration Building was crowd­ ed due to last minute i08tiiml of class

schedules. Some students experienced othcr com­ plications when moving in this year. Beth Bevan, junior from Pflueger said when she moved into her room there were no beds. "We had to sleep on the floor. We're looking for our bunks," she said. Living in a different hall from last year, Alpine resident. Terry Kyllo said he's excited about his new dorm. He had Lrouble rmding his roommate and had to hunt. around for over two hours to find hin•. I'm going through stress," said Scott Campbell, sophomore from Ivy. "I hate not being unpacked," he said. Moving to school "was so different from last year," said sophomore Jim Bekemeier. "I knew what to expect. It's exciting in a different way-a confident excite­ ment,"hosaid. Though students expressed mixed feelings sbout being back, everyone will soon be settled the excitement will fade. Think of it UJs way.

PLU . has enrolled more full- tUne students, raised more money, and com­ mitted itself to moNI capital construc­ tion projects in the past. few years t q an st any otber period in the university's 94-year history_ With the theme of 'It's our University-Lets Nourish It' President William Rieke reported on the growth of PLU's facilities and financial and academic PfQgtaVlS over the past decade in his State of' tbe University addrCS!! to the Faculty Conference last week. In the past. decade, the Office of Development has increased its total funds raised a year by 445 pet"cent, from 5680,ISO in 1975-76 to 13,760,001 in the 1984-85 school year, Rieke stated. "The Office of Development has become very competitive, and presently has surpassed Lotal funds raised a \ear by many similar universities. It has rais­ ed more money than St. Olaf, Seattle University, Gonzaga, or the University of Puget Sound." said Rieke. He stated that the Q Club, a universi· ty fund raising organiz.ation in tbe development office, surpassed its 116.5 million dollar goal last year by raising 117.4 million. "No one knows how grateful I am to report that our external auditol"S found us in positive fund balances," said ( Rieke. Along with the successes in fund rais­ ing, Rieke reported that full·time student.s have increased 10.2 pet"cent over the past decade, from 2,853 in 1975-76 to the greatest ever number of 3,144 fc.f the present school year. "This student increase in overall stu­ dent enrollment has allowed us to say that we are the largest. privsta institu· tion, not only in WashingtOn state, but in the entire Northwest," Rieke exclaimed. "This growth would not. have occurred if the university program were being perceived by all those involved in the growth as being valued," he said. Rieke stated two trends that are predicted for PLU's future student body. l) There will be an increasing number of internationsl students on campus. which is now 5.5 percent of the student body. 2) There will be an in­ creasing amount of older and part-time students. Presently, 30 percent of the Undergraduates enrolled st PLU are 25 years or older.

The Mast, September 13, 1985

Campus Beggs resigns ASPLU e�ecutive position by David Steves Mast News Editor ASPLU is without II program direc· tor. following Kevin Beggs' Sept. 10 resignation. Beggs said he could no longer justify remaining II Pllrt of ASPLU. pointing to constant opposi· tion by PLU's Student Life office lind ASPLU's inllbility to affect university policies. "I felt my involvement with ASPLU should have been an opportunity to deal with some of the policies and issues at PLU:' said the former ASPLU ex· ecutive in a recent interview. "Instead, rnost of my time and effort was directed budgetary at administrative and matters. " After taking office, Beggs said, he began to realize that students have little influence on university policies. "With the rules and regulations at PLU it's very hard to express an opinion or strive fOT change." said Beggs.

"And that's very hard and frustrating for students, when you feel like you real· ly can't make a difference." In his letter of resignation Beggs said ASPLU's goal of "significant change that will enhance the learning environ· ment at PLU...is not shared by the Stu· dent Life administration. I sought to work around this obstacle but found it virtually impossible." Beggs was elected to a one-year term as program director last February. "When I wok the oath of office, I felt I could effectively take that position and achieve some positive things for PLU and ASPLU:' he said. "Tlllngs went well at f1l"st, but it became more and more apparent that there was a lot of op­ position among the staff of Student Life to what we wanted to do in ASPLU. I felt I couldn't effectively do my job any longer ...! didn't want to compromise and do a halfway job." Poor communication between ASPLU and �ary Lou Fenili, vice-president of

KCC R airs on FM dial, offers students 'new music' by Susan Eury

PI-U students will be running their own FM rlldio station when KCCR begins transrnitting on the FM blind over PLU's campus cable system. The student-operated station should begin transmitting Oct.. 1, said Scott Williams. faculty advisor. KCCR is ....aiting for broadcasting equipment to be installed. All FM receivers hooked up to PLU's cable system will be able to receive KCCR's signal on 94.5 FM said Williams. KCCR began a year ago as an audio production clIlSS' experimental project. The student,operated station transmit. ted along the campus television cable system last year. airing on chanel 8 on .... eeknights. The format included rock lind radio dramll.

Despite the cost of new construction, university administrators expect PLU's income to increase by 82.5 million over last year's budgeted revenue. The increase is due in part to higher tuition revenues which should LOtal over S21 million, SI.4 million more than last year. This year's total budgeted income is expected to be S36.4 million, a 9 percent increase over last year. Building expenses were not included in this year's budget, approved by the Board of Regents on April 29, bec.�use capital outlay is not considered as in· come or expense. Vice-president for Finllnce and Opera· tions Perry Hendricks Jr. said construc· tion costs are not a specific part of the budget. A bond issue was floated to provide funds for summer building renovations. Hendricks said a bank loan was aT­ .ranged to pay for immediate construc· ·tion costs but bonds to pay for the im· provements will not be sold until later this year. The sale of tax-exempt bonds, totaling SII.5 million. was approved last winter by the WashingtOn State Supreme Court. The 20'year bonds will be avpilable to the general pUblic. The largest expense included in this year's budget is salary cost for faculty, staff and students. This expenditure equals 54 percent of total expenses. For the past two years equipment costs have been a major expense, due mostly to new computet aquisitions. This year's budget. though. places a freeze on t.'quipment purchases. said Hendricks.

"There's been too much animosity built up between her and a lot of reo­ ple. She should be relieved of her posi· " tion. That would be wise decision on the part of Dr. Rieke. t think a lot of students would agree with me," he said. "We're very sorry to see Kevin go,"said Fenili. "I knew he wanted to be near his fami· Iy in California. We'll miss his en· thusiasm and new ideas. "she said. Fenili said Beggs had never made any of his grievances known to her or the Student Life Office while he was a stu· dentat PLU.

Beggs said he believes resigning from office and transferring to a different school (he is cUIl't'ntly enrolled at the University of California at Santa Cruz) was the most effective way to protest ASPLU's ineffectiveness, "It's kind of like, I could stay and pro­ test, but they're still getting your tui· tion money. They won't care. Another way to protest is to stop financially sup­ porting the school and if a few students protest policies in such a fashion. maybe administrators will take notice,"said Beggs. "I regret that I'm leaving ASPLU in a bind,"said Beggs, "but I wouldn't feel right going through my term without being able to do the job as well as I'd like." Beggs doesn't blame any of the other ASPLU e:z.:ecutives or senators for his decision to leave. "They were an ex' cellent bunch. I couldn't ask for a better group," he said.

KCCR received PLU media board recognition and eligibility for school fun· ding in April. This also allows students participating at KCCR to be eligibile for a pracitum credit. The format at KCCR will be "college radio-·new music," said KCCR Program Director Dan Merchant. "We'll play groups that are not traditionally commercially-orient.ed." he said, listing R.E.M" The Talking Heads and The groups that would get airplay on

In addition to music. KCCR will a,l.so carry campus news. comedy sketches, contests and prizes. said Merchant.

Student Life. was a major roadblock in the plans of PLU's student government. said Beggs. "She's a nice person, but from myex· periences with ASPLU. the way she handles her job is more counterproduc· tive than productive for students' lives," said Beggs.

Although enrollment has not increas· ed since last year Hendricks believes the increase in tuition rates will make up for the lack of growth. Although enrollment increased by over 4 percent from 1983·84 to 1984·85 that trend has stablized. The total enrollment figure forecast for this year is 8,695 . virtually the same number as last year. When asked about the general decline in enrollment at universities due to a decrease in the college-age population, Hendricks said PLU does not seem to be affected by that condition. "It doesn't necessarily hold for in· dividual institutions." he said. Hendricks said the stable enrollment at PLU indicates that the school is offer· ing students something other institu· tions may nOlo The cost containment plan, blanket tuition coverage for 35 credit hOUTS per year, was raised this year by $585 to 56535. Room and hoard fees increased by S170 per student over last year's cost. Hendricks said the university does everything possible to keep tuition in· creases minimal but ultimately the addi· from corne must funds tional somewhere. expenses in "We can control increases , only to a certain extent, . he said. Income from residence fees and food service revenue should provide the university with nearly S5OO,OOO more than last year. Room and board and tuition fees pro­ vide PLU with 73 percent of its total revenue. Since enrollment is not expected to in· crease within the next few years the university may find it necessary to find II.lternative sources of income.

ASPLU to be 'issueoriented" concemed with student opinions

by Kathy Lawrence Mast Staff Reporter

Characterizing PLU's senate as a "perfect mesh," Laurie Soine, president of ASPLU, said it is time for PLU's stu· den� government to "expand." Soine explained that the group redefined its goals for the upcoming semester duriug iUt fall retreat, held September 4, 5 &nd 6 at Camp Burton on Vashon Island. She said the senate decided that its major goal is to become "Issue-oriented." "We've decided to take some stands and start wnny..ng about the state of the institution," Soine said. She added that ASPLU wants to b6.:0me more in tune with the CODCerns and opinions of PLU'I' student body. In order to improve !his communication, ASPLU needs to build better channels between its executive officers, the senate and studl!nta, Soine said. She cited ASPLl"a retreat as a step in this dirtoCtion. She said Dot only were a number of goala establiahed, but an "ex· tremely positive" fre.mman orientation was organized. ExpoSing the freshmen to the iSenate's enthusiasm helps promote freshman in· volvement, Soine said. Jennifer Hubbard, vice president of ASPLU, agreed that ASPLU's retreat helped improve communication. S!'Ie said a great deal of prqgrsm planning and goal setting was accOmpliShed.

"I can't compliment the senators eDoug!\," Hubbard !laid. "They are so get to willing enthusiastic and involved." To become more "iasue-oriented," the senate needs to work on its ability to choose an issue and take a stand on it, Hubbard said. Although most issues will deal strictly with PLU, she said, ASPLU is looking for ways to help im· prove PLU's awareness of national issues. An example of such an attempt m..igh t include sponsoring forums or political panels, Hubbard said. "Their (the senate's) willingness to discuss iaauea ia incredible," she added. Soine pointed out that ASPLU was handed two additional "challenges" this fall: the los! of Program Director Kevin Beggs and the arrival of a new ASPLU advisor, Dana Miller. Although Beggs resigned in the mid· die of his term, Soine said Beggs helped complete scheduling for the upcoming semester before leaving PLU. Miller, new to PLU, has brought many new perspectives to ASPLU, and is do­ ing a "fabulous job," according to Soine. Miller replaced Teresa Garrick, ASPLU's advisor for the past six years. Soine is optimistic about PLU's stu· dent government. PLU's students want to be aware of wha� ;:; happening in the senate, she said. Senators are going to emphasize communication with their dorms, thereby further increasing stu' dent awareness, Soine said.

C onstruction not need increased acreage by Carta T. Savalll Mast stafl reporter If all the buildings PLU needed were built tomorrow, there would be little n i · crease in total campus acreage. In this way the university can main, tain a steady one or two percent growth without expanding beyond ill! needs. said Jim Phillips, Phy.!!ical Plant director. Very few existing buildings will be .!! acrificed, he said. In!ltead, new buildings will be erected on hilsides like the area between the Rieke Science Center and the back sides of Kriedler HaU and Eastvold Auditorium. To maintain the delicate balance bet· ween the 01 and the new, Phillips and hi.!! crew of 80 must spend a.!! much time maintaining existing buildings as they do planning for new ones. During the summer when campus traffic is light, the work is constant. Ingram Hall, vacated by the School of Nursing. is receiving a $325.000 facelift before the art department expands in· side and the communication arts depart· ment moves from Blomquist House. Cost estimates (or the project fluctuated betw«8n a low estimate of 5100.000 to a high of $400.000. Phillips said. After reviewing three separate plan.!! for In· gram. PLU President William Rieke ac· cepted the $325.000 bid. "There are some concessions, Phillips said, "but it will be to code, comfortable and adequate." Rieke. who will begin his 11th year

this fall. .said the university's construc· tion "priorities depend on where the money falls." The addition of 49 computer terminal stations in Memorial Gym for student use was one of the top priorities, PhiWps

oaid.

Cost for the project is $42.000. Similar terminals wlli also be pvailable for studenll! on Ramstad's fifl'lL noor. East campus. the former elementary school which is leased to PLU by the Franklin Pierce School District. will also be upgraded. Phillips said- a Wellness Center for the School of Nursing i.!! also . planned there. In other projects. the Physical Plant's heating and utilities division is replac· ing cracked sewer lines. The 5250,000 job will pay off in the long run. Phillips said. because the cracked lines were allowing rain water and other debris to seep in. which in· creased the cubic feet of sewage PLU was paying for. PLU is charged 12.50 per hundred cubic feet, Phillips said. Immediate plans call for the replace­ ment of only two buildings: Haavik House. used by the School of Nursing. and \\'beeler House. used by the School ofBusin�. As other facilities are either built or renovated. the use of those two houses will be absorbed. he said. Another major project on campus was the addition of three student parking lots: the University Center extension lot. a Stuen Hall resident lot on 120th

Renovatlon,from page 1

A fire started by a welder's t.ofclt ig' nited aome combustible materials last may and caused severe roof and water damage, he said. The fire, which beg.n in the basement, did not delay the renovation. Absher Construction Co. of Puyallup, contractol' for the project. was covered for the loss through fire insurance. The University normally accepts bids from severaJ construction companies before choosing an .ffordable offer. That process was eliminated. however. and a contract negotiated directly with Absher because of their past work for PLU. he said. "They had such a good track record,'" Phillips said. "The did a good job on the Science Center." Absher also built Stuen and Ordal Halls and the library. The interior of the building was gut· ted and replaced with new walls, win· dows, an elevator and electrical wiring. There had bee n no other work done on the building since the completion of ad· ditional c1a9ll rooms on th wesL side in 1958. The addition was originally fitted with a nat roof even though the main building had a pitched roof. The nat roor

was chosen because it was cheaper in the short run. PhiWps said. Now that both sections have been remodeled. pitched roofs have bee n add ed because of long·term durability. The buildiOS's mechanical equipment will aJafJ be stored in the roof. he said. The renovations has given Ramstad a longer life span, but that is not the ease in Harstad. Phillips said. AJthough 1586.000 worth of wm-k WI.." done to both the inside and outside 0r Harstad. the historic building atill re­ quires a new plumbing system and otber renewal projects. Energy consumption in the building has been reduced by 40 to 50 peroent since the light fLXtures were rewired and outdated fusebo:r.es were replaced with circuit breakers, he said. "In many projecta there Is a IXISt payback." he said. "In aeveraJ years the cost of lightios -)in Harstadjwil.l be reduced."

Because the building is on 'he Picrce County Historica1 Register, all projects must be approved by the Pierce County

Council.

Phillips said he has budgeted Harstad renovations the past 12 years. but either the lack of money. or the priority of other projects kept the work on the shill until now. Prior to this summer. the installation of an elevator in the 1940s was the last major renovation project in Harstad. Rather than risk wiring problems by repairing the outdated elevator. a new system was installed by Sound ElevaWr. The Seattle-based finn aJso replaced the elevators in Tinglestad. The Tinglestad elevators were an ex· ample of q:.1ality sacrifices made in order to complete a project, Phillips said. When Tinglestad was built in l&967, there was not enough funding to install a superior elevator system. AJthough safety was not jeopardized, allowances were made in the type of mechanicaJ equipment. Governing each elevator to stop at either odd or even·numbered Hoors also cut costs.

RLO relocates in Harstad, enjoys additional office space by Krl.t! Thorndike M a st Projects Editor

"A minimal amount of money W89 spent" in relocating the Residential Life Office to first Hoor Harstad from the Administration Building, said Lauralee Hagen. director of Residential Life. "We moved into what was there and made it work," said Hagen. "We painted the waDs and put carpet down. but that's "bout it." she said. The space was previously occupied by the hall director's apartment. the RHC office, Associate Dean for Student Life Kathy Mannelly's office. and a classroom. The main RLO office. and Housing Coordinator Jan Maul Smith's office are now located in Harstad. The classroom is being cooverted into an RHC meeting and office area. said Hagen. The hall director apartment has been moved into the assi.!!tant hall director's . quarters and the a.!!sistant director's room has been reloca� to second floor Harstad. The Student Life Office has e:r.panded

into RLO's old space in the Administra­ tion Building. Mannelly's DeW office is with located Student Life. "Residential Ufe definitely needed more space." Hagen said. "Eighty·five people work for Residential Life. It will i ha re to do their jobs better," she said. "The new Science Center had the big· gest impact on campus n i terms of the domino effect," Hagen said. "People started talking about shifting and relocating." she said. When referring to the move, Hagen said. "1 love it. I think we all do. rm e::&:' cited about the opportunities. I'm really thrilled." Hagen said she thinks the new loca­ tion is more centraJ and this will cause more interaction between upper and lower campus.

Lifelong leaming goal of higher education by Brian DalBalcon

Mast Ed itor

"Education is what remoins after oon­ tent has been forgotten:'soid Dr. Pat Cross of the Graduate School of Educa· tion. Harvard University,in her keynote address to the Fall Faculty Conference last ....ook "'Fortunately, students don't remember the content of what we work so hard to teach. fI they did remember, they would be candidates for early retirement, in favor of college students ....ith new up-to-date information."' she said. In her spooch. Cross suggested what faculty and adminstrators can do to create ex::ellence in higher education. '"Universities should prepare their �tudents for life in the 21st century. The one thing we can predict is that th..ings ...i11 change and that education is the best way we can prepare people to odapt to change," Cross said. She cited a report entitloo., A Nation At Risk. wh..ich criticized the American eduCiltion sy�tem. The report kickoo. off a movement which resultoo. in the formation of 300 state educational task forces and com· mti tees which made recommendations of how to improve the national educa· tion system. But many of the solutions by educa­ tional reformers do not remedy the pro­ blem. '"State reform.:! that raise entrance requirements may at their best be call­ ing for improved learning for high school students. But they avoid the issue of improved education for college students.'" Cross said. '"Where we should be clammering for better colleges for students, we are demanding better students (or our colleges." Cross said that the task of educators is not to prepare students for life in the computer age, but to prepare them to adapt to a world of change.

Harvard UnIversity professor PatrIcIa Cross delivers her keynote address to the Fall Faculty Conference.

' " What students know when they leave PLU is not nearly as important as what they are capable of learning.'" Cross said. She stated that the explosion of knowledge is so great right now that scientific and technical information doubles betwoon a student's freshman and senior years in college. '" So one way to approach educational planning is to ask 'What do we hope re­ mains after content has been forgotten?' fI we phrase the question that way, it casts a new light on what we mean by excellence in higher education.'" CroSll explained.

'" Education is far more than the transmission of knowledge. fI we were to content ourselves with only this,then we would move backwards, with each generation reinventing the whee\."' CroSll said. '"More importantly is how our students think about learning,,. Cross quoted one scholar who said, "Schooling- basic or advanced- that does not prepare the individual for fur­ ther learning, has failed in no matter whot emphasis it succeeds in doing. '" What educators should be doing is to teach students to think, to analyz.e, and to create their own methodology, Cross said.

"A good idea todoy can be worth millions. Idea power is the most important economci stimulus of all.'" Cross stated. She cited from the book, In Search of Eltcellence, which called this kind of mental power, 'productivity through people'. Productivity comes from knowledge and from people who know how to generate it and use it, ahe said, "Increasingly people are asking ror students who can invent new products. interpret trends, and anolyze pro­ blems, '" said Cross. The change from voluing information to valuing ideas hos been elttroordinari­ Iy ropid. The chaUenge of today's stu­ dent is not to locate relevent informa· tion, but to put it together into new perspectives and ideas, Cross eltplained. "The well stuffed mind has been outclassed. It simply has been replaced by the comput.er,"she said. The Nationollnstitution of Education recently issued a report entitled ' In· volvement in Learning' which said that undergroduate education could be great­ ly improved if throo conditions were applied-O student involvement 2) higher expectations of students and 3) ossessment and feedback.

Student involvement was defined as "The amount of time,energy, and effort students devote to the learning process," "Involvement in learning is critica!:' said Cross. The NI E report drew the conclusion that the amount of student development, learning, and personal development WiLh any program is direct­ ly proportional to the quantity and quality of student involvement in that program. The study concluded that students who are involved in almost anything on campus are more likely to learn and less likely to drop out than those students who live on the periphery,

"What we really need to take away from this conference is a real determina­ tion to be involved. Loyalty to learning translates in the long run into loyalty to the institution," said Dr. Janet Rassmusen. associate professor of languages, in her opening comments on the faculty panel discussion held during the F'all Faculty Conference last week. The panel discussion was held with PL U faculty and administrators to discuss the Five-Year PIAn with par­ ticular emphasis to Excellence in Educa· tion and facully involvement in teaching. Members of the panel answered ques­ tions submti ted by fellow colleagues on topics ranging from institutional plann­ ing to evaluation methods of outstan­ ding teaching. The panel was composed of Dr. Will iam Rieke, PLU president; Dr. Janet Rassmussen, associote professor of languages; Dr. Ernie Anrkrim, usociate professor of economics: moderator Dr. Davis Carvey, professor of busineSll administration; and Dr. Pat CroSll. chair of the Administration, Plan­ i the n ing and Social Policy committee n Graduote School of Education.

S -Year Plan to follow familiar gameplan by Brian OalBalcon Mast Editor

THE FIVE YEAR PLAN

The following nterview i U'(J1j held /Cilh PLU Pruident William Rieke aoout hill Fioe-Year Plan. a propfJllal which Iftaielj the unioerlJilll i! plam and educational phiiol/Ophi('1j unlil itlf centennial n i 1990.

What will PLU be like in the year 1990' "The major strategy or gameplan is to keep building on the strengths that have brought us this far- build on the proven record. The last decade brought us a long way in terms of quality and numbers of st.udents, faculty, and facilities. How will PLU balance its liberal arts curriculum with tbe demand for more proCessionallicboo!lI? "By the intention of the majority of the people on campus. liberal arts is still, and will remain. the core. The teaching of the liberal arts, meaning those things which teach us to reason and com­ municate, are those things which best prepare us forlifelong learning. On the other hand. the professional schools that we have are good, strong schools and thf'..re will always be tension between them and the liberal arts. For example, in the School of Nursing there is barely enough time to satisfy core requirements because the cur· riculum is so crowded with professional requirements. There will always be that tension and I see that problem getting worse, not-.better There is also outside pressure for the professional schools. The short·term market is demanding more specializa' tion. When you graduate with a specialized education, you are going to be snatched right up. But five to ten years down the line, I am not sure that specialized education will serve you as well when you go through midlife. Look at my case. I have a specialized education (in mediciriel. Much of what I learned is speciali7.ed information that is now outdated and obsolete." With all the new construction and renovation on campua, is the university ell:panding too faat for its fiscal support b_' "We went through a period from 1970 to 1985 without the contruction of any new major building. We built only the physical plant and a smaU math/com· puter .science bui l ding. That's 15 years without a capital project of any significance. That's too long because the rest of the world will pass you by. If you don't keep up your facilities, you lose the ability to deliver & quality education.

*�

President WHllam Rieke

Then there is the question of why we don't put more money into salaries. In my mind, the university's real strength is its ablity to draw a quality studenL body. If you lose that ability because you have outmoded facilities you have lost the whole ballgame. 1 hate to say that facilities have greater priority than faculty, they are almost equal. but it is sometimes easier to move in one direction than another. What has happened is that we have expanded the number of faculty very rapidly and in greater proportion than the number of our students. The conse­ quence of that is that we are unable to do as much salary-wise as we would like. If the primary source of income is our students and our primary expense is payroll. If that expense is greater than your income rate, then that restricts you from paying personnel as much as you would like." .... How doea the university plan to regain that balance between payroll ell:' penses and revenue from students? , . Rather than fire or layoff faculty and staff. it is better to reverse that im· balance by attrition. After someone leaves the university, we must ask 'Do we really have to fill that position?' In· stead, we will look to see if there is any way that that job can be done by some present staff or faculty member. If we are really serious about getting better pay, then we have to get our sut­ denufaculty ratios closer.

An 8-person senior facwty panel will be appointed by the pres.ident to study the university's curriculum and method of delivery and recom­ mend possible strategies to decrease total facwty demand on payroll.

Regents and 21 To give us a new group of corporate owners whose sole concern is PLU business. Right now, if there is a good candidate we want for a new Regent we cannot get him because we don't have enough con­ trol with our corporate owners and it gets lost in the system. But. with the New Lutheran Church, we will have a group of corporate owners whose sole concern will be PLU. We will also work closely with them for the selection of our Regents. Then PLU will have greater control selecting those Regents who can really open doors with their contacts."

Within the past few weeks PLU's 100,00 watt National Public Radio af· filiate station has begun broadcasting 24 hours a day. seven daYIi a week. Last spring the station initiated overnight jazz programs on Friday Bnd Saturday but did not have the funds to do the same on weeknights. Now stereo jau continues until 5 a.m. Sunday through Thursday. Music is heard 28 hours each day on the weekend. "The introduction of a 24 hour broad· cast day is the result of requests and funding support from the listeners," said FM·88 Program Director Scott Williams. KPLU's weekend jau offerings in· clude concert programs and six hours of blues on Sunday night. Overall the station airs over 119 hours of jau each week and over 48 hours of news and public affairs programming. In addition KPLU's signal has been extended.

KPLU currently uses the Westar satellite t(o record programs from Washington D.C. The station's own reporters must still use telephone lines to transmit stories back to the newsroom. This causes sound distortion. The miCfownve will also enable KPLU to simulcast programs with public television station KCTS· channel 9. Live concert broadcasts will be possi· ble with the system. Such broadcasts are currently impossible due to the break·up of A.T.& T. and the increasing price of telephone line access rates. Williams said FM·88 is also trying to reach more people and be more visible in the community by sponsoring concerts (see related story). KPLU is represented at the Western Washington FaiT n i Puyallup this year by a booth located inside the Blue Gate. Program schedules and window stickers are available at the booth. The number of people Usfening to the station has been steadily increasing for tbe pa.!lt two years. said Williams. The most recent radio ratings indicate that more people tune in to FM·88 than'to some commercia] T0p-40 radio atations.

Modest Fair grows immense, but still down-home fun BO)'II. are scheduled to appear this weekend. Products on display range from slicer­ dicers and juice-o-matics to computers, pre-fabricated homes and the latest "Rambo" paraphnnalia. In fact while visiting some of the Fair's hundreds of exhibita. you can buy a car, join the Washington Stale Trap­ pen;' Association. bring home a grand­ father clock. or enlist with the U.S. Marine Corps. Artists and craftworkers can be found sketching, photographing, painting, blowing glass and pounding horseshoes. What makes a day at the Fair com· plete is the food.

But it's grown inl.O much more. Millions wilJ "Do the Puyallup" thi, fall and the Fair has something a little different to offer each one. For some the Fair means great food. Others go to the Fair for its wide voriety of entertainment. And there are plenty of exhibits through which to browse. Of course for kids. the Fair means playing daredevil on the roller coast.er, seeing the sights from atop the Ferris wheel and munching on pink puffs of cotton cand),.

raspberry jam and melted butter and hamburgers topped with a healthy mound of fried onions. The food fare at the Fair has enough variety to tempt even the choosiest tastebuds. For those not n i the mood for hot dogs, popcorn or piua wedges, there is takc-out Chinese food, seafood. deli­ style sandwiches, giant cinnamon· covered elephant cars. barbcqued ribs. Italian pasta and even "Mellican hotdogs." Doing the Puyallup in 1985 is quite a bit more than it wos at the turn of the cl!ntury. With the wide range of sights to see. places to eat and things to do. there's something for eVCf)'one.

When it comes to enLCrtainment there is D little bit of everything. All over the fairgrounds visitors can find traditior.aJ rodeo entertainment. jazz musicians. country·western bands. folk dancing. kickboxing and even a little rock 'n' roll.

The ride was rougher than expected, but all the small kids were strapped on and holding tight. The most thrilling ride at the Fair is the wooden roller coaster' built n i 1935"the tallest of the three roller coasters at 70 feet. It has both the sharp curves of the Monster Mouse, a 52 foot·high roller coaster, and the steep grades of the Wildcat. "That was a 10," said Crystal, still laughing after the ride ended. "It's one of the better rides I 've ever been on, "she said. Heidi said " It's the best ride III the Fair." The Fair also offers several spinning rides including The Rotor. the Squirrel Cage and the Zipper. The Rotor is a speeding cylinder·like ride that spins around fast enough to suspend riders to the walls when the floor drops out. The Squirrel Cage is a metal mesh two-seater that resembles a gerbil's exercise wheel and the Zipper, with a dozen metal cages shaped like :r.ipper teeth, rotates at blurring speeds around a long narrow structure.

Occasional showers could not dampen the spirit of the crowd that attended Bob Hope's show last Friday evening at the Western Washington Fair n i Puyallup. The evening's rain merely gave Hope more material for his jokes as ushers provided trash bags to keep folks dry. Hope entertained as the first act of this year's fair. Although the show began about 20 minutes late, the grandstand's capacity audience was pa· tient and greeted the veteran enter­ tainer'a first Puyallup appearance with a standing ovation. Singer Patrician Price. a cross bet­ ween Loretta Lynn and Pia Zadora. was the comedian's opening act and received a �oderate reception from th\! crowd. The best part of her performance was her accompaniment· the Art Doll Band_ This group is composed of musicians from Puyallup and Sumner and they did a terrific job of warming up the audience for the main attraction. When Hope took the stage 30 minutes later he hod the audience laughing with the first thing he said. He poked fun at Puyallup and his old partner Bing Crosby who was born in Tacoma. DUring the hour of songs and snappy patter Hope managed to include some subtle pop philosophy and social commentary. Probably the low point to his perfor­ mance came near the end when he began a series of anti·homosexual jokes that were particularly unkind. The crowd reacted with little enthus.iasm to these gags. Fortunately he steered clear of most controversy and kept to stories about everday life. Hope is in his 80s but the

an encore of his theme song "Thanks for the Memories." But really it should have been the au' dience saying thanks to Bob Hope for providing a truly enjoyable evening at the fair.

Waylon Jennings' recent concert at the Western Washington Fair in Puyallup proved that country music has gone beyond the twangy tunes and cor­ ny ballads for which it has come to be known. Cowboy hata dotted the crowd at last Saturday's performance but for the audience members most pa:t represented all ages and styles. Members of Jennings band opened the show with a traditional slide guitar solo followed by a rendition of the country· rock song "Who'll Stop the Rain." It is to Jennings cnd.it that he allows his musicians to perform alone because they art'! accomplished artists in their own right. Singer Jessi Colter took the stage next performing several tunes including her hit single "I'm Not Lisa.'" Jennings and Colter, who are also hus· band and wife, often appear ,ogether. Their songs reflect the good and bad times in their relationship. Colter said, "'We just got to tell all our business in our songB." After 20 minutes she left the stage and Jennings entered to whistles and applause. The crowd seemed to tum on to the man who has won two Grammys and four country music awards. This share-cropper's 50n he! certainly broken more ground in country music than he ever did n i his West Te:us home. Jennings got his start in the music business after meeting Buddy Holly n i 1958. By 1965 he was rooming with Johnny Cash in Nashville and had sign. ed a record contract with RCA. The conservative image of country i in the 19605 was changed forever blending of rock rhythms and in·

struments with the traditionaJ country sound. Late in 1976 Jennings and Colter released an album with Willie Nelson caJled "Wanted: The Outlaws". That album was to become the pioneer recor· ding of "contemporary country". It became the first ever Nashville­ produced platinum seller. Jennings' opening piece last Saturday characterized that new style of music. "Are You Ready For the Country?" aptly displayed his rich, often·gravelly voice. Jennings set n i cluded an anti-drug song, once again highlighting the per­ sonal nature of his music. He spent much of his career battling the effects of whiskey and other drugs. Jenning's performance featured some selections that the crowd recognized from the first chords, "Only Daddy That'lI Walk the Line"', "Basics of Love"' and "Goed 01' Boys" - the theme to the television show "'The Dukes of Haz:r.ard.·· Jessi Colter then jOined her husband for a few tunes and some good·hearted teasing. In reality Jennings credits his wife with his renewed direction n i life. " She stuck by me. She saved my life," he said. Finishing the concert with "Good Hearted Woman"" Jennings received a standing ovation and returned for an en­ core of"I've Always Been Cra.:r.y". The audience responded with another standing ovation. The crowd seemed to appreciate the couple's warm attitude and creative lighting added to the intimate feeling. In fact, the only problem with Jenn­ ings' concert was its length · 40 minutes was far too short a time to appreciate this country music pioneer's talent.

Viewpoints Editorial Involvement. That Is the single most important factor for the student who wants to the get the most out of his education. Invovlement In education was the theme faculty and administrators discussed for three days at the Fall Faculty Conference last week. Getting Into your studies, taking an active part In life; that Is the best way to get the most out" of your college education. Student Involvement, as defined by Dr. Patricia Cross, chair of the Graduate School of Education, Harvard Unlvelsity, Is "the amount of time, energy and effort students put Into the learning process." Involvement In learning Is critical. A National Institution of Education report found that 1) the amount of student In'/olvement, learning, and personal development Is directly proportIonal to the Quantity and Quality of student Involvement In that program. The study concluded that students who are Involv­ ed In almost anything on campus are more likely to graduate and less likely to drop out than those living on the periphery. Involvement In your education does not all have to be sullen and In the classroom. One of the most 1m· portant aspects of college Is the social life-going out for a pizza with friends, poppIng popcorn In the dorm, or spendIng time with a special friend. It simply means engaging In some activity related to campus that you grow from In some way. PLU has more campus organizations, part·tlme Jobs, scheduled and non-scheduled events to keep person busy alt his hears In school. Go out. Discover them. And live life to the ful lest­ every day.

" I think it will be a good alunmi team, and I think we are in for another great game," PLU c.)8.ch Frosty Westering said. Westering's varsity squad returns eight defensive starters and sevcn atarters on offense. Two out.atanding players from last yelU's team will play for the alumni: AIl·American guard. Bruce Larson, and Safety Don Colt.om. "The alums always bring a lot of guys, ' and they are really tough on defense. They hurt because they don't get to practice on offense, so they are limited," Westering said. The Lute varsity is very deep at runn· ing back. linebacker and deftmsive back according to Westering. However he says they ha\'e some holes to fill in the and offensive defensive lines. Two of the top plllyers returning for the Lutes ere full back Mark Helm Ilnd Honorable r-.lention AIl·American defen· sive end Jeff Elston.

Jeff Yarnell will call the signals at quarterback for the Lutes. The 6'3" sophomore from Medford, Oregon, should be much improved because of the experience he gained starting the second half of last seuon. Tran9fer Mike Vin­ divich, a High School All-American, pro­ mises to add depth at running back with Jud Keirn. The defense will return a handful of veterans including defensi\'e tack1es Mike Jay and Tim ShanDOn.

F B Sq uad Wins F rench Riviera Classic Many football teams dislike playing their games on the road because of the unfamiliar surroundings of their op­ ponents home fields and fans. But following a recent PLU football Learn road trip. I don't think you'll hear any Lute footballers complaining. The Lutes tour of France to play n i the French Riviera Classic July 16·30 was one of football and ambassadorship. both jobs done well by the squad. On the football side of the coin. the Lutes fared very well sweeping a three­ game series of the Paris Blue Angels by scores of 40-12, 09.0. and 36-13. "We experienced a range of emotions dropping in on a different culture." said PLU head coach Frosty Westering. "It started with frustration. but the upward spiral brought excitement and .. inspiration. The squad struggled the 11rst. few days in Nice !pronounced "Neece"l with the language barrier. trying to clear up lodg· transportation and ing. meal. arrangements. When the int.erpreter arrived. things began to fall n i to place. "Throughout the trip. our body llinguage was betl,cr than our literal delivery:' claimed Westering. "We learned more moves than a dancer n i a disco." The Lutes acted as ambassadors for the U.S. in all that they did. They put on a passing drill prior to a soccer game in Nice before a crowd of nearly 30.000 people. At the Promenade de Anglais tParade of Flowers) n i Nice. one of the biggest in France. the team marched. did go-drills and passed out flowers to spectators. They represented PLU and the U.S. well which drew nothing but high praise from Westering. "Our visit transcended football and PLU." he said. "We represented our country in other ways and 1 was proud of our ambassadorial performance. We certainly weren't perceived as Ugly Americans." The Lutes visit La France originally was to play a French and an Italian all· star team. along with the Paris Blue Angels, in the French Riviera Football

The Lutes, on their recent trip to FranCil, fared vary well capturing the French Riviera Classic title. But the trip wasn't all football. The team did find time for sight·seelng, and one of the backdrops for the trip was the scene here In Nice_ Classic. But because of a jurisdictional dispute between AMERFOOT and the French Sports Federation, the two teams had to bow out, leaving just the Blue Angels and the Lutes. "The Paris Blue Angels are probably the best football team in Europe, " claimed West.ering. "To improve, the Europeans will need a coaching nfusion i from America." '. "They can deal with power, but not finesse." Westering continued. "On bootlegs and count.ers. the French couldn't find the hall. They play like Gladiators "

'But football wasn't the only thing on the Lutes agenda in France. The team found time to go on a buying spree at a

perfume factory outside Cannes, along with trips to the Cannes Film Festival Theatre. Monte Carlo and the beaches.

Mortvedt Library Simplifies System by Miriam aacon

Mast reporter

The Mortvedt Library is installing a new coding system, hoping to save time and impr.)ve H.e facility's IJervice to students, The present system is too time­ consuming, according to Edith Landau, the library's project manager, With the present system everything is doneby hand, said Landau, citing handl· n i g overdue notices and fines for over­ due books as examples. There is a lot of checking, counter-checking and detailed clerical work, she said. According to Landau there will be more available personnel to work at the desk. " More time to help people," she said. The new system is totally electronic. Each book will have a bar code number and studenta will have a bar code on the back of their ID cards. The upcoming system will U96 both bar codes to check out materials to a stu·

dent, said Landau. The system is "in· capable of ma.ki.ng errou, " she said. "It will save a lot. oftime." The system works much like the elec· tronic system that most grocery stores use. The library will have a pencil·type intstrument which will read the bar code on the material being checked out and the bar code on the student's 10 card. The system will then automatically register that material with the ID bar rod•.

The system will come into use as soon as all the books and materials n i the library have ben assigned bar codes. This new system will eventually bring a new card catalog system using com· puter terminals. The new terminal system will help students find books and tell them if the book is in the library or if it has been checked out. Landau said the transition period will take one to two years. She expects the new system to be n i full operation by next September, butis optimistic thatit could be in use by this spring.

Runnin' Lutes Fare Wel l I n Scandanavia The Pacific Lutheran University basketball team just completed a 19�y tour of Scandinavia and the Lutes fared wdl, capturing five of eight games. "It was a real awakening," said head coach Bruce Haroldson. "coming out of our shell to visit countries not dominated by television of Americaniz· ed sports." "It was a marvelous experience," claimed Haroldson. "The level of basket· ball play was 'about what I expected. The best teams such as Ammerud and Alvik are close to U.S. Division I caliber. The other teams could be liken. ed to our Division II or NAlA schools." "Our contact in Norway was Arne Stokke, a political science professor at the University of OBlo, who introduced

DOM INO'S

" It took a while to get used to interna. tional rules, which includes an advantage-disadvantage concept," Haroldson said. "If contact creates no dissdvantage for the offensive or defen. sive player, no foul is called." " fhere is a t.endency for the games to get a little rough." continued Haroldson. "The only thing tougher was the sugar withdrawl pains. I think we O.D.'don Scandanavian pasties."

Choosing a long distance company is a lot like choosing a roommate.

It's better to know what they're like beforeyou move in.

Living together with someone for the first time can be an "educational" experience. And living with a long distance company isn't any different. Because some companies may not give you all the services you're used to getting from AT&T. For instance, with some companies you have to spend a certain amount before you qualify for their special volume discounts. With some others, voice quality may vary. But when you choose AThT, there won't be any surprises when you move in. You'll get the

same high-quality, trouble· free service you're used to. With calls that sound as close as next door. Guaranteed 60% and 40% discounts off our Day Rate-so you can talk during the times you can relax. Immediate credit for wrong numbers. Operator assistance and collect calling. So when you're asked to choose a long dis­ tance company, choose AThT. Because whether you're into Mozart or metal, quality is the one thing everyone can agree on.

the library, the time-saving system is to be expected by FaU 1986 at the latest. The delay now is programming the tapes, which list aU the books owned by the library, into the computer terminal.

PLU's judicia1 process has undergone major changes for t.'le second straight y..... Faculty leaders, atudent government officials and key administrators hope the Dew aystem will eliminate some of the problems of lut year's judicial procedure. "In a lot of ways we took a step backward (last year) and now we're back to wbere we were...but a little bit further than we were two yean ago," said A$PLU President Laurie Soine. "I like the new system in general It's a vast improVemeDt over last year," said Residential Hall Council Chairman Student Judicial . over -the summer by Mary Lou Fenili, vice presi­ dent for Student Life, and Associate Dean for Student Life Kathy Manne1Jy. "It onawers a lot of questions that came up. It's much more of a peer raview system, and that's what I like. I tbinlt a lot of students will like it," Dun­ mire said. Mannt'Uy said the new system serves to "basica.1l.y refine and streamline, to make the system more workable and more fair to students." She said PLU's judicia1 system of a year ago was a "working draft," and that most of the bUg! should be eliminatod by thenew system. Last year, PLU made acme majO!' changes in it'a judicial policies.

Regents discuss future at retreat by Kathy Lawrence Mast stall reporter

On returning from a two day faU retreat with PLU's Board of Regents, Laurie Soine, ASPI..U president, com· mented that she learned an important

l�n about the regent!!. She said they are an ene-getic and innovative group who take PLU very eeriousiy. Some explained that students think of regents as "removed. unaware in­ dividuals who have been around for- hun­ dreds of years." She said that anyone who had the pri\'i1ege to attend the retreat received a much different impress.ion of the board. The event was held Sund.y evening t hrough Tuesday Kft.ernoor. «1 the t\!dl'rbrook Inn 0:1 Hood Cnnlli.

In addition to Soine. two other stu­ dent representatives. Jennifer Hubbard, ASPLU vice president, and Scott Dun· mire. chairman of the Residential HaU Committee, attended the retreat. Three faculty representatives, Davis Carvey, Marlen Miller and Janet Rasmussen, also attended. Eight adminisu-ator.J participated in· cluding Pre3ident William Rieke, Mary Lou Fenili, vice president of Student Life, and Perry Hendricks, vice presi­ dent of Finance and Operations. Hubbard explained that a retreat gives both the regent!! and PLU representatives an opportunity to discuss not only present iss;ues, but also ones that deal with the future of the uni\"crsiIY.

the theme of the retreat: 'It's our univer· sity; let'a sustain it.' Ra.!Jmussen agreed that the retreat's t:mphasis focused on the future. She said the r,egenta seemed very willing to in­ clude PLU faculty and students in the planning process. "The retreat was very valuable in terms of establishing and renewing rela­ lionships,"Rasmus.sen said. "It was very refreshing to confront the en­ thusia.!Jm regent!! have for PLU." Pastor David W"!� chairman of the Board of Regents, said the basic pur­ pose of the retreat was to give those who attended some time to reflect on PLU's bigger issues, such as PLU's Five Year Plan.

Campus Measles still danger for unimmunized C

by a rla T. Savalll

Mast staff reporter

A measles epidemic that caused three e i t i: rei��o :; : e� �h�� datory college immuniza�ion laws are desperately needed. Unfortunately, it may take another major outbreak before colleges and universities nationwide adopt man· datory laws, said Sharon Boroski, direc· tor of the Health Center at Gonzaga Univerisity in Spokane. Immunizations are not required at PLU. only strongly recommended. Carlyn Wold, a registered nurae at PLU's Health Center, said "we (PLU) don't have anything mandatory becauae there is nothing mandatory n i the state." Gamaga University is just one of several Washington slate colleges who have either adopted or are considering mandatory immunization laws. Whitworth College, also in Spokane. has a mandatory program. Washington State University and Seattle University are considering programs. Wold said PLU is hoping for a statewiae law, but until then, the Health Center will continue monitoring im· munization records of all incoming student5. Should a mandatory law pass, PLU would have to devise a system for en· forcementof the law.

Wold said she guesses the Admissions Office would be in charge of monitoring immunization records and turning away those who do not comply. CurrenUy, entering students are ask· ed to fill out a confidential health history which is kept on me in the health Center. If immunization records are found incomplete students are asked to come to the Health Center for a vaccine which covers hard measles, mumps and rubella. Compliance is voluntary. By acanninng student health histories, the Health Center is able to immunize 95 percent of all studenl:.8 needing shota, Wold said. Gonzaga's Boroski said ahe believes a mandatory law for college atudents should have been included in 1I law passed by tbe Washington State Legislature flve years . That law requires all school children through the 12th grade to be immunized. Boroski asked Gomaga officials to lobby for inclusion of college students, but the effort came too late. "I tried to get them to nclude i the col· lege age group, but it wasn't until 1981 that they started seeing the outbreaks." she said. The law was passed in 1980. Recent measles outbreaks are due to a red measles vaccine many children received between 1963 and 1968. The shot was not designed as a long term vaccine, and as a result, those children who are now n i college are contracting

ago

measles, BO!"oski said. PLU requires only nursing atudents and athletes to be regularly immunized. The University of Washington, which runs a volUntary program, also requires ita health sciences students to be � perly immunil.ed. The Pierce County Health Depart' ment provides PLU's Health Center with serum for the vaccines. That enables PLU to offer the shots at no cost. Should that service stop however, the university will charge for immunit.a, tions, Wold said.

ThePierce County Health department also gives vaccinations for the cost of ... While a statewide immunization law is possible, Boroski said it is DIOn likely that individual institutions will imple­ ment their own programs. The same is true for other states. The Washington State Board of Health recently passed a resolution en' dorsing a mandatory college program but the resolution has no legal enforcement. Larry Brown, senior public health ad· visor for the Office of Preventive Health Service in Olympia, said he does not understand why there is no statewide legislation. "I don't know why becauae in the last three years colleges and universities have been measles target populations," be said. Several agencies have joined the fight

for mandatory legislation, among them the American College Student Health Organization and the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta. Both Wold and Boroski said college students aN! reluctant to get immunized because thoy either lack education about the seriousness of an outbreak n i their age group, or they are fearful of needles. Boroski and Gonzaga were nitially i met with reluctance from students but publicity over the Illinois University in· cidentcreated positive publicity. Not having a mandatory immuniza· tion prtlgl'alll could end up costing a university a lot mon money in the long run, especially if it has to aet up emergency services to handle an out­ break, Boroski said. Many universities, including PLU, do not have infirmaries, 80 students with communicable diseases would have to be housed somewhere other than the dor­ mitories, she said. PLU had a measles outbreak in 1979, Wold said. Five cases were reported and one st,udent was taken to the hospital. Ann Miller, a nurse practitioner in the Health Center for the last 11 years, said the epidemic "was something that hap­ pened without warning. When we got our flrst case it quickly spread to flve." After the fl rst day of the'epidemic, the Health Center was able to immunize over 1,000 students which helped con· tain the problem, she said.

PLU computer center expands; Bandy appointed computer dean by Mark Reys Mast reporter Many areas of the PLU curriculum have been changed or upgraded recent· Iy, but none so prominently as the university computer center. With money allocated this suInmer. the center was able to add to its already expanded facilities and to its faculty. The computer center is trying to establish a slandard or common com· puter forum. The school recently purchased about 30 new IBM·pc micro-computers. With these, the 28 VAX terminals and the three recenlly obtained computer pro­ jecting systems, the center staff hopes to make it as easy as possible to learn basic computer functions by limiting the types of computers the school uses. "By doing so, the slaff would be able to concentrate on just the selected few and not spnad themselves thinly among the various makes and models'-'said Bandy. " It will give U9 a year or two of stabili· ty:' he aaid. Starting this year, there will be a com· puter lab fee. Compiled hourly, th", charge will be included on the student'a PLU account. The fees are 75 cents per hour for use of micro-PC's and $1.25 an hour for the mini--computers.

The two user labs are louted in room 109 of Ramstad Hall and in Memorial Gym, room 105. The hours of both rooms are 6 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week. These times will be chang· ed at a later date. The fees will not go into effect until Oct. IS, 80 students now have a chance to become familiar with the university's computers at no charge. . When asked why he felt the Ad· ministration was eltpanding the com· puter center, the n.ewly appointed Dean for Computing, Howard Bandy, replied, "There is an unmet need and the em· phasis in this area is an attempt to over· come that." Howard Bandy is new to the dean position, but very experienced with com' puter operations. He has been in the computer business since 1959, spending half of that time in computer center management and the other half in teaching on the college level. Bandy came to PLU in the fall of 198-4 as a professor of computer acience and still retains that title n i addition to the dean's seat. Other faculty added to the roster this aummer were Academic User Consul· tant Robert Paterson and co­ adminiatrative User Consultant Sally Hilberg.

Food service changes offer new foods, options By Judy Van Hom Mast staff repo rter

Food Service went through many changes this summer, to make the cam· pus a better place to eat, according to Food Service Director Bob Torrens. Students eating on campus now have a choice of what kind of meal plan they would like to have, and some new choices for food selection. For years students have been asking for a new rlan, said Torrens. It starteo\ picking up intensity about 8 years a�"', he added, then faded out with time:1 hen about 5 years ago the re­ quests for different Oleal plans cegan again, he said. " '!'wo years ago, was the strongest it's ever Ucen."Torrcns said.

With the requests came three dif· ferent meal plans available to students this year. The first is the full meal p�n. With this option the students have the same plan as the previous year. I t includes all meals on campus. The full meal plan seems to be the most popular, Torrens said. Quite a few students: have choaen this option. The second plan includes lunch and dinner seven days a week. Students pay 5675 for the two meals a day on campus, compared to the 5730 a semester for the full meal option. The least popular meal plan, according to Torrens, is the Monday through Fri· day full meal plan. This includes breakfast, lunch and dinner only during the week for 5625.

Torrens said he has received only favorable reactions on the policies so fu. He added that he's not sure everybody likes it, but everything he has heard 80 far hu been positive. The new meal plan was not the only change food 9ClVice undertook this summer. A bagel and deli bar was added to the list of main couraes offered. Now deli sandwiches and bagels are available for lunch and dinner every day, Torrens said. The added selection serves as another entree, Torrens added, and it provides an alternative to the other entrees served. Another additioq to the University Center Commons is the lo-foot salad

bar. In the put, the salad bar was located where the dessert and fruits are now. The seperate salad bar, which of· fers a lot more room, is at the e&3t end of the d.ining hall. The Food Service ataff rearranged the cafeteria in what they found to be a mon logical order, Torrens said. Now, when theatudents come through the entnance, (the exit in previous years) they can go directly to the salad bar. In previous yeara, the first item students picked up was the hot entree, Torrens said. With the new arrangement, the hot en· trees being the last item to be picked up, food can be eaten while it is still hot. However, if the food does get cold, the two new microwaves Food Service pur­ chased this summer are available to heat up the food.

Loan defaulters to have tax retums withheld Education department hopes to recover $250 m i l l ion

ICPS)ln itl! latest efforts to dramatize how tough itl! getting, the Education Department last week said it would sic the Internal Revenue Service on current and former studentl! who do not repay their student loans, The department says defaulters won't get their 1985 or 1985 tax refur.ds until they repay their loans, Department officials predict the agreement with the IRS ....ill . recoup 550 million to 5250 million in past due finan· cial repaymentl! next year, They hope to corral almost 80 percent of the ecofflaws, The department has publicized am' bitious recovery programs before, in· cluding ongoing media events like im· pounding defautler's cars and tem· porarily kicking IIOme schools out of aid programs, financial , Tms time, officials add, the recovered money probably won't go directly back into student aid, In all, current and former students still owe anywhere from 51 billion to S5 billion, according to various estimates. "This is the largest single effort in lel'ms of money to be returned to the U.S, Treasury," contends Dick Hastin�, the department's director of debt collection and management assistance services, " About 82 percent of the defaulters on our data ,base get income tax refunds," he claims. Hastings plans to mail final payment notices to about one million defaulters tms month, giving them two months to pay up or lose their 1985 refunds. _ State agencies will threaten to withhold 1996 refunds from another million defaulters.

'�We've agreed to accept 2,3 million referrals from the Education Depart­ ment.. accounting for 53,1 billion in debtl!," affmns IRS spokesman Steve

'll take a tape from ED with defaulters' names to match with our tllpe of people getting refunds." he explains

During the two-year program, the IRS can withhold defautlers' retums untill all loan obligations are paid. for example, if a defaulter expects a S500 1985 refund and owes 51,000 the IRS will withhold refunds n i 1985 and 1986,

Loan agreements worked with Lute defaulters Mast repOrter

by Gerd,Hann. Fos.n

It might not always be easy to make repayments on loans, Most PLU students meet their responsibilities, but there are slways some exceptions to the rule. Pat Hills. who is responsible for collec­ ting repayments on student loans at PLU, says there are always a few students who don't want to pay back their loans, "Mostly those are studentl! who quit school before getting s degree and !Wmehow feel they do not owe anything, but rather that society owes them something," she said, "Normally, however, it s i possible to work out an agreement when students have pro­ blems paying them back." Due to the ract that PLU is a private, comparatively small university, Hills believes that the students feel more responsible to the school. "It's not like

when you go to a uniller:..ty with about 20 to 30 thousand studer.ts. Where all you are is a number," she said. PLU's default rate 83 of June is ap­ proximately 5 per-c.ent, Compared to the national average of more than 10 per­ cent, this is very good, said Hills, Although collecting unpaid loans s i alwsys a matter of great concern, PLU is not very aggressive in doing so, said Hills. Before a collection agency is con· tacted, the defaulter receives selleral notices and Hills said she might also call the former student to work out an agreement. If repayments are still not made, a col­ lecting sgency will eventually have to take over. In certain cases, for eJ:.8mple when the debtor cannot be found. the case will be returned to PLU and then go to the Federal Government. Since 1979. when the Federal Govern­ ment offered itl! assistance in collecting debts on loan defaults, it has handled less than 44 cases, Hilla considers· th.i..s "Dot bad at all."

saying where the money went," Pyrek reports. "It's not only not likely the money will go back into student aid funding, but it's most definite it will go to the U,S, Treas�" Hasting said, "That, after all, is where student aid comes from," To get loan paymentl! back in 1982, federal attorneys in Philadelphia im­ pounded the cars of 17 area defaulters as collateral against their ollerdue loan payments, That same year, then·ED Secretary Terrel Bell temporarily withheld stu· dent aid funds from 400 schools .nth default rates Oller 25 percent, Last year, Congress authorized ED of· ficials to hire private credit rating agencies. "The credit agency program was eJ:' tremely successful," Hastings said. "It has doubled the amount collected since 1981."

Some states let schools withhold defaulters' college transcripts. A Kan­ sas bill would have prevented defaulters' children from getting stllte financial aid. Despite the high Don·payment rate. a spring 1985 study by the Higher Educa· tion Services CorporatioD suggestl! most defaulters are unemployed or ig· norant of repayment schedules, Most want to repay the debtl! but are financially unable, the study says. "There's a phone Dumber on top ofthe final notice," ED's Hastings counters, "We can work out arrangements for par­ tial payment if the defautler can't pay it allatonce."

Uncle Bonsai returns to play by Susan Eury

Mast stall reporter PLU students will have the chaoce to catch Uncle Bonsai n i action in Tacoma this weekend, The Seattle-based vocal trio, who opened for the rock group Toto at PLU last May, will play their contemporary musical satire tonight and tomorrow at the Tacoma Actor's Gui l d in downtown Tacoma. Although the group's name has no special meaning - their music does. Andrew Ratshin, lead vocalist lind rhythm guitarist, writes song1l that parody today's "Yuppie" lifestyle. "Cheerleaders on Drugs," "Visible Pan­ tyline," and " Penis Envy" would not be as easily aoct'pted if they wer;! not couched in the sweet three-part har­ monies provided by Bonsars other members, Ashley Eichrodt and Ami Adler. The three have gained notoriety in the Seattle area, performing at the Seattle IIrts festival Bumbershoot to standing room only crowds, Their music has been given airplay on Seattle radio sUltions, including KEZX and KCMU. the U ofW campus station. But the group is being heard more throughout the country and may be destined to be one of the most popular blinds to come out of Seattle.

The remaining part of the tI'lllUlition is technical, which is the responsiblitity of the Pierce County Library and another company assisting in the transition. The new system works much like the electronics system used in grocery stores. A pencil·type instrument will read the card code on the student's 10 and the bar code on the library material. The system will then register that material with that student's bar code number.

Dorms commemorate PLU's history; provide recogn ition by Becky Kramer Mast reporter Each dorm at PLU has its own per· sonality. lifestyle and design. Think of Harstad and you envision a variety of ancient high--ceilinged rooms. Tingelstad makes you picture utilitarian· styled accommodations and Pfleuger brings thoughts of living in a cracker box to mind. The residence halls at PLU also have another image to convey. They bear the names of nine people from PLU's history, Haratad Han waa originally known as "Old Main." Built n i 1894, it housed the entire campua for many years. There were cl8ssrooms, the library, offices, donnitory rooms, apartments for facul· ty members snd their familit's. a chapel, l! social center. food serv ice, a laundry, dres'ling rooms for athletic teams, (I. heaLing plant, and a bookstoro:l. At the time it was a coed donn. containing scparste livingquarters for ·'Iadies·· and "young men." In 1960, Harstad was renamed n i honor of Bjug Harstad-founder of PLU {Pacific Luthersn Academy st the time) and the school's first president. Nils J.

I n itiations pull dorms together by Clayton Cowl Mast reporter To most people, a college student wearing a Glad trash bag and serenading in the University Center or lugging a thirty·pound green rock may seem a little strange, but for over 600 entering Lute freshmen, the sights were commonplace as the newcomers were united through tradition and welcomed to the PLU campus. Originality and organization are two aspects of n i itiation that make it better each year, says Ivy Hall Director Bryan Stelling as activities wind to a close this weekend. "The main thing to keep in mind is that activities should be kept fun. It may be embarrassing, but initia· tion does bringpeople together." Most freshman find it hard to believe that being jarred from a peaceful rest at 3:30 in the morning or strolling to dinner with a pig nose on could bring on social responsibility and unity with one's peers. but many like the idea of initia· tion and have found it a positive ex' perience to remember. "It was really cool. We had a great ti�e after looking hack on it,"

remembered Rainier resident Cameron Swift, s freshman from Columbia Falls, Montana. "It was great when it was all over and they officially accepted us as a part of the dorm. It seems like some of the other freshmen never know when they can be accepted and feel like dirt. " Most campus initiations occurred dur­ n i g the flTst four days of school with the n�ost popular activity being the campus tour. This activity involved severa1 hun· dred freshmen receiving toure of the PLU campus at early hours of the mom· ing with varied levels of sound. Some dorms concentrated on alarming its freshmen sightseers. while others at· tempted to wake the entirecampus with various noise-making devices. Other dorm initiation projects includ· ed a 3 a.m. painting project by Alpine, a wet Harstad chorus line, a male scavenger hunt by KreidJer and an obstacle course and a plastic bag perfor­ mance in the dining halls by Foss Hall. Ivy plans a tour of the Parkland com· munity this weekend, while Cascade will feature their annual freshman talent show tonight in the Cave.. Some of the most tested freshmen were the new "Men of Rainier." Four

straight days of rigorous initiation ac­ tivity �ted the Q'ew of over 70 freshmen as the ooly all·maIe dorm of PLU toured the campus. e:r:ercised on the front lawn at 5 a.m. with tM help of the sprinkler system, and displayed their bodies with a wet T-shirt contest lit Harstad. Despite dowsings with water, elthibi:' tions in the University Center and road· trips to unknown localities. most freshmen still encourage initiation for next year's enteringciua. "It was rea.ny fun, but it would have been even better if we had more ac· tivities earlier so we could get to know each other better," explained Tonja Doepke, a Haratad freshman from Tacoma. Chris Reitan of Rainier agrees that in· itiation was a positive experience now that it is over. "It really served more than one purpose," he noted. "It helped us get a real good taste of dorm life and also gave us the chance to meet all the other guys in the dorm. It may have seemed like a pain at the time, but you can look back and see that it was a good experience."

of past leaders Nesvig. "I had forgotten what an all men's dorm sounds likt: after a footbaU victory. I did get enough sleep, however. so that's that:' Tingelstad Hall was dedicated the next day, homecoming SundllY, November 5, 1967. Pfleuger Hall was named after Jes.se P. I'fleuger. a religion and philosophy professor. Pfleuger is best remembered by Nesvig for h..is booming voice. He never used a microphone when speaking in chapel and was notorious for yelling at the referees during athletic contests. Pfleuger is said to have defended himself with the words "They're getting paid, and it's our duty to let them know when they're not dOing their job right." Hinderlie has the distinction of being the only building on campus named after staff members. Originally named South Hall. the name was changed in 1966 to !lonor Bere"lt Severin Hindcrlie and his wife Ragna. Hindcrlie served as a janil.or lor 31 years and Mrs. Hinderlie worked in l..aundry and Food Service from 1923·28.

New system better able to handle overloads

USRB, from page 1.

been "overloaded with relatively minor cases while more serious cases were handled administratively without the benefit of peer review." Sel;;ondly, that lower peer review boards were being "virtually excluded from participation from the judicial system." Thirdly, that too many students were being written up and :lent through a long judicial hearing process based on a guilty by association rat ionale. Egan, who is returning for another year on the Faculty Student Standards Committee, hopes that these and other grievances against PLU's judicial pro­ cess will l?e eliminated by the new Stu­ dent Judicial System. The new system brings about many changes, including the dissolvement of the USRB, which consisted of the three members of the Faculty Student Stan­ dards Committee, three students and an advisor. The USRB, fonnerly the university's highest judicial board, will be replaced by the Student Judicial Board. The Student Judicial Board will con­ sist of nine students and three non­ voting faculty advisors. In the past, faculty served 85 voting members on the USRB. "This puts faculty more in line with faculty roles in other student groups such as clubs and committes, where faculty are seen more as advisors," ex­ plained Mannelly. Egan agreed that there is no need for faculty to hold a voti ng role. "Students can handle the administra· tion of certain types of academic policies and faculty don't need to sit in on these types of cases." she said. The SJB will review cases n i four­ person panels. This will allow the SJB to review more cases. Mannelly said using three small boards will allow the SJB to review more cases. She ezpects it to make hear-

ings easier to schedule, and lessen the anxiety of students by putting them in front of smaller boards. First·time alcohol and visitation in· fractions will once again be heard by lower boards. Last year only 27 of PLU's 156 hear­ ings were heard by lower peer review board. This imbalance resulted from the new policy of sending first-time alcohol and visitation violation!! straight to USRB. Egan said she is pleased to see the lower boards being utilized, She said her biggest frustration last year while servo ing on USIiB was "my time being con­ sumed with cases that weren't of a serious nature coming to the highest

boani "

"It was ridiculous that last year so many cases went to the USRB," agreed ASPLU President Laurie Soine, one of the students who served on USRB last year. "This puts the power back in the donns and RHC." she said. Halls may opt to fonn a combined

board. Mannelly said because some halls hear substantially less cases than others, they should be allowed to com· bine their review boards and handle more cases. Hearing officers will be appointed to offer students an alternative to board hearings. This position was borrowed from the judicial program at the Univer· sity of New Hampshire. where the judicial system is very similar to that used at PLU, said Mannelly. She said this will replace administrative hearings. Hearing officers will probably be hall directors, RHC staff members, and possibly faculty members. and atudents. said Mannelly. She said she will nuake recommenda· tions to Fenili. who will appoint the h�rinp; officers.

Students may choose to have their case brought before a hearing officer rather thon a board. Mannelly said there are several advan· t.llges to utiliz.ing hearing officers. She said this format allows cases to be handled more quickly, and that it is much more appropriate wnen cases in­ volve private or possibly embarassing situations that are too sensitive to bri.Jog before a group of people. She also ex­ plained that in some cases students can benefit from the one-on-one situation, and betm understand why they were written up.

"Students can ezpect penalties to be comparable to those of last year." said Dunmire. He said the Student Judicial was not organized "so people will get off any easier. They probably won't. But they've cleaned up the system, Things are more organized, more uniform. " MannelJy said she has received only positiVe responses to the new system, but said it will be a long time before sbe's ready to declare it a success, " Wben we actually get into implemen' ting the system- that's when we find out if there are bugs in the system," she said

'Alive in the Lute Dome' features Ventrella, comedy by Katherine Hedland Mast reporter A new program is in the works for PLU television viewera. A comedy/interview show hosted by students Dan Merchant and Rick Larsen. entitled "Alive in the Lute Dome," will air at the end of this month. Merchant came up with the idea over the summer and'then enlisted the help of Larsen. The two have a variety of plans for the program. Episodes will include i!l�' views with well known personalities. comedy sketches. and music videos, as well as on·location. "people on the street" spots with PLU students. . Merchant. a senior broadcast lOur­ naliam major, calls the show "a sort of junior leaguer David Letterman.: ' He . aims for it to be a fun and entertaining, college-oriented show. The half·bour segments are taped live and will be shown bi·weekly. The premiere episode. taped on September 11, features an interview with Tony Ven-

trella, a KING-S TV sports-<:aster. Merchant described Ventrella as a "real card," saying the interview went very well. The show will also include two

comedy skits festwing Merchant and Larsen and a David Bowie video. Future guests may include Ross Schaefer, also from King-S TV. and Cin­ dy Reinhart, the soap opera know-it·all from "Northwest Afternoon." Contact has been made between the two and plans are still being discussed. So far they have had a great time on the show, said Merchant. Of his partner. Merchant said Larsen. a junior majoring, in political science. "is really fun to work with and we collaborate really well. We just sit around knocking heads until we come up with ideas. It's silly but fun, We don't really take it seriously," The two are anxious to see student reactions as nothing like this has ever been 10ne on TV here before. There will be a 5lleU preview in the Cave before the init.ial airing, Watch for the premiere of thia unique new sbow at the end of September.

Lutes crush Loggers 54-1 3 in Dome Duel 111

How "Sweet" it was;

Vindivich rushes for 139 yards in opener

by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter Who says football is a game for rough guys? To most Lute fans, grid ball is just a game of sugar snd spice - and very Sweet, PLU middle linebacker Tony Sweet collected seven unassisted tackles, had three assists and turned a blocked field goal into an 84·yard touchdown run as Pacific Lutheran drubbed cross·town rival Puget Sound, 54-13 in a Columbia Football League skirmiah held last night n i the Tacoma Dome. With the Loggers in scoring range on the Lute 17·yard line, Sweet blitzed on a Jim Beclunan field goa] attempt, block· ed the kick and sprinted untouched for a score that left UPS stymied for the en· tire game. '" just blitzed inside and the ball hit me in the chest and face mask." Sweet remembered. '" just started running with the ball and didn't know I would go all the way until ' got to about the 20." The blocked kick was the shot that tlrake the dike n i a rivalry traditionally wedged on momentum. The Loggers fai l ed to score again in the game, while PLU ran up 41 points in the final three frames. "This always has and always will be a game of momentum," explained Lute head coach Frosty Westering. "We could tum around and play those same guys tolnorrow and it would be a one touchdown game. Tony is a big.play player for us. The score really doesn't tell the whole story." Offense was the big question mark for PLU this season, but a young front line keyed a 432'rard attack that saw junior transfer Mike Yindovich race for 139 yards on 15 carnes.·including a 46-yard run from scrimmage. "Our offensive line needs to mature, but they did play well tonight," Wester­ ing continued. "Everyone showed high energy and were ready to play. We were setting goals for a fourth-quarter surge and we got that, too." Sophomore quarterback Jeff Yarnell went 8 for 16 n i the air for 102 yards and one interception ss the Lutes took con' trol early. Yindovich took off around right end for a 28-yard touchdown burst to start the scoring spree, while Puget Sound responded with a Mike Oliphant touchdown dash n i the some period from 29 yards out. Senior Jud Keirn broke into the open for a 26'yard touchdown run in the se­ cond frame before UPS fullback Alain Patton bulled his way into the end Ulne from 10 yards out toequaJ the count. Sweet's blocked field goal attempt and touchdown combo made way for Yarnell to crank up on the next Lute drive and hit receiver Jeff Gates for a l5·yard score with 1 : 1 1 remaining in the first half. Pacific Lutheran pushed the ball downfield 61 yards in five plays on their second possession of the second half as Yindovich scored from a yard out. Yarnell found wide receiver Steve Welch open n i the end :wne from four yards out to start the final quarter, while Craig Puzey slanted into the end tone from three yards out to cap a 57-yard drive in eight plays. Stu Smith intercepted a Logger pass at the UPS 36 to set up a Steve Yalach touchdown run from five yards out. The Lutes travel lo WiUamett.e for their game on Saturday, Sept. 28.

"The 12th man: Lute Fans!'" read the banner draped across the second level of the Tacoma Dome at last night's PLU vs. UPS footbsU game. "Lute Spirit!"' hollered the mob of PLU fans waving "00 Lutes" signs. Lute supporters colored the crowd wearing gold and black head bands, baseball hats, PLU sweatshirts and Tee shirts, and even gold socks and neckties. Some of UPS's banners decorating the Dome r;;lad: "Prey on the Lutes," "Nuke the Lutes,"' " Ood's on our side too." "Go home Lute scum!" PLU signs read: "Shine Lutes Shine."' " Total Relesse," and "Energize." This is exac�ly what the Lute fans did. Miniture footballs. stufft.>d nnimals. and toys were nung through the air as Lute fans jumped to their feet after the

first touchdown. Fans screamed and swung gold towels overhead as PLU made the eItra point. PLU students clapped, cheered and jumped on top of the bleachers as their team led 34·13 in the middle of the third quarter. When the Loggers had the ball, "Oet 'em, �t 'em, get 'em!" screamed a fan. The Logger got tackled and the crowd erupted, "Yah!"' '"I'm 90 excited!'· said another Lute fan. " 1 just love foothaU.·· When the Lutes raised the score to 40-13, Logger fans began to leave like someone had yelled "FIRE!: on their side of the stadium. Laughing nnd cheer· ing. Lute fans waved goodbye across the Dome.

The PLU banners accurately depicted the outcome of the game. "Yes we can!:' one of the Lute banners read. and the fact of the matter is... YES WE DID.

New shorts have been ordered for the team. but it's the old jerseys that may present a problem for the Lutes.

ASPLU comptroller resigns position, withdraws from PLU by Kathy Lawrence Mast stall reporter ASPLU officers announced Wednes­ day that sophomore Ty Oekofski resign­ ed his post as ASPLU Comptroller. Altho\lgh two ASPLU officers have resigned since the beginning of the semester (Oekofski and Program Direc­ tor Kevin Beggs), Vic�President Jen­ nifer Hubbard said that ASPLU on the whole is mOfe stable than she has !K.-en it ' in past years. She added that a strong senate and good advisors will help ASPLU through its temporary crisis. In his letter" of resignation. dated Sept. 23. Dekofski attributed his deci­ sion to personal circumstances. He said that although he took his oath of office seriously when he was elected. he could no longer devote sufficient time or energy to the position. Hubbard commer.ted that while -Dekofski!sPer�nality -is -"it· replaceable", resignation is more positive than failure to perform adc< quately. She said that not only is Dekof· ski presently training to join the Seattle Pollee Department, he also dropped his fall semester classes. Mary Lou Fenill. vice president of Student. Life, said she was disappointed to hear of Dekofski's resignation because he was one of the hardest work­ ing st.udent leaders in recent years. Fenili added that despite her regret. she applauds Dekofski 's decision. She said that it is important for students to assess their situations and admit when they are in over their heads. By admit­ ting he had too much to do. Dekofski adoo n,:.ponsib1y, she ::Iai.:l.

In an interview last week, Dekofski said that during his term 88 comptroller he became frustrated with PLU's ad­ ministration. He said the administration fails to take ASPLU or student opinion seriously. People need to be made aware that ASPLU haa the potential to be a atrong student organization, said Dekofski. H e added that last semester the senate made a move in this directon by taking stands on certain issues. "ASPLU needs to exert some power and show we have a strong student government on campus so that the ad· ministration will take us seriously." he said. He said that Fenili is the only ad· ministrator with an "open door." "She probably won't do anything. but she always listens," Dekofski said. Fenili said that PLU administrators are interested in student opinions, but things can't always change because of that. She said it is like saying God does not answer our prayers because He said no. President Rieke ha.s an open door policy, Fenili added. She said perhaps Dekofski thinks she is the only accessi· ble person because she allows Tuesday tnrough Thursday walk·in periods. Anyone may come into her office from 4 to 5 p.m. and talk about anything. " 1 don't want to take more credit than what's due," she said. Laurie Soine. ASPLU president. said a special election to fill the vacant com­ ptroller position will be held Thursday. Applications for candidacy must be i to the ASPLU office by today. turned n

Campus Safety left shorthanded after budget cuts by Carl a T. Sayalll Mast reporter

Campus Safety is in a parodolcicni position this year. Their manpower has decreased and PLU's fllciliUes have expanded. That leaves Ron Garrett. Campus Safety director. with a fe..... people and a lot of ground to cover. The reason: insufficient funds. "A lot of departments in the universi­ ty got squeezed in the budget process." he said. "Megabucks have been spent uPb"l"ading buildings and on the Rieke Science Center. We got squeel;ed. We have everybody out there we can afford to have." Currently there are only two Campus Safety officers on duty during each shih. Last year there were four officers duro

ing swing shift. 4 p.m. to midnight. and three on duty the rest of the time. Despite staH shortages, Garrett said he and his crew have managed to police the area and provide priority service� like escorts and emergency assistance to students. While the shortages cause their share of problems during the day, problems in· crease at night when outgoing phone calls jam the phone lines.

..... beoii spent upgrading . buI_ and on the _ Science Center. W. got _ We ..... � out there we can afford... Ron Garrett, campus Safety DirectOf Until recently there was only one stu­ dent worker operating the phone system. That shortage created a back· up and many calls were put on hold until they could be connected.

Brad McLanc, assistant director of Campus Safety, said that Campus Safe­ ty was able to reorganize their budget and hire another operator to handle the overflow.

Computer equi pment stolen, UC burglary attempt this summer

by Carla T. Sayalli Mast reporter

Among Campus Safety's respon· sibilities is to assist the Pierce County Sheriffs Department in the investiga· tion of felony offenses on campus. Campus Safety recently collected in· formation on two incidents which occur· red over the summer. The Enst Campus Microcomputer Center was broken into over the Labor Day .....eekend, said Ron Garrett. Cam· pus Safety director.

Approlcimately $7,000 worth of (.'Om· puler equipment was stolen. The computers were on loan to PLU from various businesses, according to Brad McLane, assistant director of Campus Safety. The university 's insurance will prr>o bably cover the loss, Garretl sa.id. In another incident, stolen tools from the Ramstad construction site were us· ed in an attempt to break into the University Center safe in June, Garrot.t said. The safe was not opened and nothing else was talten.

"We find when student's can't get through to an operator, they call the emergency number:' McLane said. " We tell them to call back the operator and keep the line dear for emergencies." Deciding to add another operator is one example of the kinds of choiccs Cam­ pus Safety is making n i the faee of per­ sonnellimilDtions. "'There is only so much we can do given the IImount of manpower and ser­ vices we have to provide." McLane said. Swingshift is one the busiest periods on a Campus Safety officers shift. There are buildings to inspect and lock and students who need escorts and after hours admittance n i to buildings. An officer will escort a student anywhere within the following boun· daries: north to 119th Street; south to 1\J.le Lake Road; east to Pacific Avenue; and west to L Street.

Providing escorts will remain a priori· ty serv ice regardless of the shortages, . McLane said. Other services such as patrolling park­ ing lots and walking tnrough campus at night will become lesser priorities. "We try to do it (.....alk the grounds) but we get interrupted wi�h so many things." McLane said.

S u rvey to poll attitudes on visitation by Katherine Hedlond MaSI reporler The on'going battle to change PLU's current visitation policy, which pro­ hibits members of the opposite sex to be in each others' dormitory rooms bet. . ween 2 and 8 a.m., continues. The next step in the process is a stu­ dent survey delving into the matter. The survey will be conducted by Matt Taylor. parlimentarian for ASPLU Senate and other committee members from ASPLU and RHC. I t will contain specific questions per. taining to student behavior. With it,

they hope to accomplish two things. First, they will determine if students really do want the rules changed. Taylor said that from all the informa, tion they have received.!lO far. it appears that about 75 percent of the campus supports the change. Of course, if the survey shows dif­ ferently, he said they will abandon their efforts. Student opinions tend to vary on the subject but many appear to support the change. Sophomore Lindsey Stizrud said, "I think the rules should be changed 8CI that friends of the oppo�te sell: can be

together when they want, just to study or talk." Stixrud added that it would be more i portant that roommates be con· m siderate of each other if the policy were abolished. Student Erik Runyan commented. .. ] think it should be left up to roommates whether or not they can have people in their rooms after hours." The problem of mutual respect between roommates has consistently been brought up. But, 89 Marti Denison pointed out, "The current policy isn't always a sure way to protect a roommate. Sometimes one has to be just as ASser-

tive at 2 s,m. to kick a visitor out of the room as at any other time." The survey will give more conclusive answers on student feelings toward the idea of the change. Secondly, the survey will explore what kind of activity is taking place now, and what would or would not change with a different policy. Taylor said those favoHng a change in to reasonably policy need to be prep argue against critical attacks from those who say that without the policy there

Overexpenditures, budget cuts plague ASPLU b y Kathy lawrence Mast stall reporter ASPLU was informed in Augu�t that it overspent its 1984-85 budget by $6,280, said Ty Dekofski, former ASPLU comptroller. Dekofski, who resigned his ASPLU position Monday, said he was told by the PLU administration that the overex­ penditure had to be cut from this year's budget before ASPLU could open any of its acrounts. He said ASPLU cut 5 percent from'all committee budgets and 10 percent from all accounts, except intramurals, ad· ministration and the Cave. In addition, Dekofski said grants were cut $4,000 and special projects $2,000. He said all the cuts, approximately $12,146, were put into a deferred payments account. After COV(lring the overexpenditure, Dekofski said $5,866 remains in the deferred account, serving as a genera] slush fund. He said the comptroller will then determine when the money is need· ed throughout the year. I n actuality, he said, the committees are loaning ASPLU part of their budgeted funds. He said the loans shouldn't strain any of the committees. considering 60 percent of those commit­ tees do not use all their allotted funds.

"We're just going to move money around," Dekofski said. He said that although ASPLU was told they overspent !6,28O, his records showed only a $5,300 overexpenditure.

"I am trying to find it," he said. Mary Lou Fenili, vice president of Student Life, said the university's auditors came up with the $6,280. She said ASPLU simply lost track of �r..ending.

Dekofski: 'Budgeting system in need of revision' ASPLU's budgetin g system " stinks" and needs revising, said Ty Dekofski, former ASPLU comptroner, prior to his resignation this week. "The budgeting system for ASPLU stinks," Dekofski said. He e.plained that all other univeraity budgets are based on proposals. ASPLU, he said, is simply given an allottment of money and told they can use it however they want to. Starting this semester, Dekofski said, ASPLU will put together a budget pro­ posal in the fall. He said this change in procedure win provide PLU's administration with a guideline of ASPLU's needs when they prepare the university:'s budget. "By showing them what we need. we will help change their attitude of 'We don't care what you need, this is what yo� get'," Dekofski said.

Mary Lou l-'enili, vice president of Student Life. said that the change in ASPLU's budgeting system is a positive move. She said that since ASPLU has failed to submit a budget i past years, PLU's ad· proposal n ministration was forced to simply guess at a figure by looking at past spending trends. "If ASPLU submits 8 budget pro­ posal like the rest of the university, they will have far greater input," Fenili said. "That way everybody has a chence to say what they want to do and how much money they need," She added that obviously not everybody receives what they want, but at least they have a chance to justify their programs. Dekofaki said PLU's administration thinks ASPLU does 'stupid, silly thing!' with its money.

"The overexpenditures show that ASPLU was not on top of everything," Fenili said. She added that Dekofski told her that he was not on top of things as much 8S he should have been. "He took responsibility for it,"' she said. Fenili said that since spending sum­ maries do not come out until the middle of the next month, it is easy to lose track of spending. Trent Ling, OrdaJ's ASPLU senator,' said the senate was not adequately in­ formed about financial matters last semester. "We didn't know we overspent $6,300 so obviously we weren't kept infonned," he said. Jennifer Hubbard. ASPLU vice presi­ dent, said the overexpenditure cannot be blamed on any one group. She said executives, the senate, committees and ASPLU's previous administration all played a part. Since ASPLU usually has an "ex­ tremely" large amount of money left over every year. Hubbard said, the $6,280 cut from this year's budget will not cause ASPLU any problems. Laurie Soine, ASPLU president. agreed that the cut will not have any negativc effects on ASPLU. She added that the overexpenditure was a "deflllite lesson" for ASPLU.

'Yuppie vs. Yippie' to debate student concems by Susan Eury Mast staff reporter

Today's college students may be more concerned with their GPA than with LSD, but both will be topics at next Tuesday's Jerry Rubin/Abbie Hoffman debate in Olson Auditorium. Both speakers were activists in the 1960s and members of the Chicago Seven, a group of demonstrators ar· rested for inCiting to riot during the 1968 Democratic: Presidential Conven· tion in Chicago).

Jazz ensemble ready to blow their own horns by Jenna Abrahamson Masl reporler Depth is the word used to describe this year's University Jazz Ensemble. Director Roger Gard, along with many members of the group, stress that this is what ensures all sections are powerful. And jazz fans will be able to see if the description is accurate at Thursday's 8 p.m. concert in the UC. · "The jazz band is a strong, but young group," said bass player Liz Walczyk, "only the rhythm people have been around a while.·Lead trumpeter Darryl Abrahamson believes even this early in the year the band works well together. "We have a good groove." he said. Members are still trying to get used to oneanother's musical style.

Gard !! . .lid when new players are brought togt:ther this is "one of the big· ge�t obstades." The new personnel will have to live up to the reputation of Illst year's group. With the loss of Illst year's alto and tenor sllxophone pillyers. said Gard. there are " big shoes to fill.'" But he con· siders many of the current musicians to be " state solo quality people." The quality of the rhythm section re­ mains consistent and there is an abun· dance of strength in the horn section. Gard believes any trumpeter is capable of carrying the lead and soloing. The trombone and saxophone section each have only one returning member. Gard said he is pleased with the new talent filling out these sections. Most of these people are freshman or transfer students. "The success of last year's group set a

Flawless concert blemished by hal l by Daye Howell Mast reporter Tuesday night's guitar recital in Chris Knutzen Hall displayed the talents of Jessica Papkoff and Hilary Field - but to poor advantage. It was the 'Chris Knutzen' part that was unfortunate about the concert. The performers' chairs were placed on a piece of orange carpet facing over 200 empty chairs. But only 22 people attended the concert. The performance itself was technically excellent. The concert started with Vivaldi's Concerto in D, originally com· posed for wind and string instmmenLS. If you think you've never heard of the Conccrto in D, think again. Sesame Street had a segment where they show' cd II rose close-up (first a dewy leaf, then a petal. etc.) The center section of the composition (the Largol of the Vivaldi was the music that accompanied the rose.

Bach, Beethoven, and Scott Joplin were represented during the concert as well. The unfortunate aspect was the room in which the concert was held. Even sit-

ting near the front of the hall, I felt as if the performers were lost. The constant feeling of space to the rear was very distracting. It would have been nice to have had a cup of something hot to enjoy during the concert. I found myself wishing that the concert had been in the Cave, with a murmur of quiet conversation for background. Even if the artists wouldn't have been comfortable with that. the performance could have been in the music building, or one of the small dining rooms. The music begged for a more intimate setting. The concert is not part of a planned series. Field, a member of the PLU music faculty, and Papkoff. a former music instructor at PLU. regularly per· form as a guitar duo in the Northwest. Field thought that a concert at PL U would be a good idea. Field will perform again in March. for anyone who missed Tuesday night's concert.

REVIEW

New film offers confusion, not comedy by MIke Holf Masl reporter One way to populariz e a movie is to advertise its funny and cute side and pass it off as a new comedy. Such is the case with Peter O'Toole's new picture, "Creator", which stars Mariel Hem· ingway and VincentSpano. When it comes to laughs "Creator" is second rate. But if you are soft:hearted or newlywed you may enjoy this pseudo­ romantic comedy. Peter OToole portrays an absent· minded professor trying to create a clone of his late wife. OToole is obvious· ly playing the same eccentric character he brought to life in another recent film "My Favorite Year'". This time he is not 11 down-and·out film hero but a meddling scientist, Nevertheless an over·sexed coed. played by Hemingway. finds him attractive.

Viewpoints Editorial

Several Mast headlines the past two weeks have dealt with the resignations of two ASPlU executive officers, Kevin Beggs, former programs director, and Ty Dekofski, former comptroller, For one reason or another. they decided to quit their posi­ tions before fulfilling the ful l·term they were elected and committed to serve. Both left office with criticisms of the university's ad· ministration and how they view ASPlU. Beggs said, "With the rules and regulations at PlU it is very hard to express an opinion or strive for Change." Dekofski said, "ASPlU needs to exert some power and show we have a strong student government on campus so that the administration will take us seriously." Beggs also stated, "When I took the oath of office, I felt I could

effectively take that

position

and achieve some

positive things for PlU and ASPLU... but it became more amd more apparent that there was a lot of opposition among the staff of Student Lile to what we wanted to do in ASPLU." If both resignees were really committed to the reasons they originally ran for office, they would have stuck it out and given their best efforts to work with staff and ad­ mini strators to bring about a student government that is powerful and well respected by its peers. Quitting in the middle of a term has only reaffirmed ad­ ministrators students

. . . and the beat goes on by Susan Eury Rock 'n' roll is here Lo SLay ' that's a fact. But there are some who have dredged up the past insults hurled at America's most popular music. It encourages rebelliousness. It glamorizes drugs and promiscuity . l t promotes satanism. But it's not so much the music that of· fends those who would protect us from the demon "Rock"; it's the lyrics. These complaints are nothing new. What is new is the threat that legisl(l. tion will be passed to censor rock music lyrics, The Parents Music Resource Center, a b'TOUP orgllniz.ed by congressional wife Tipper Gore, has largeted rock lyrics as dangerous and would like ratings placed on cerLain albums. But there's the catch . which albuftls should be rated, which left alone. and which banned altogether !for .surely that must be the next step). The leading spokesman for the defense (rock music, that isl has been Frank Zappa. While not known for his political sway, he has been one of the feV! to approach the problem logically. Zappa has presented solutions rather than excuses, reasons rather than accusations It was he who suggested placinglyrics on the outs.We of albums so parents could preview their children's pur­ chases. And the PMRC agreed. But again this presents a problem. If the PMRC is trying to shield children from what they view as offensive why would they want those very same word.!! freely available in any record store's racks. And this preview of the lyrics may induce people to buy the albums by creating a sensation.

The probl�m is not that a viable way to censor rock music cannot be found but that any way is being attempted. Nothing is ever as clear cut as it seems and rock music will never be the source of complete debauchery that some would make it out to be. Tn fact. rock music recently has been i por­ the driving force behind the most m lIInt charitable efforts of all time. U.s.A. for Africa, BandAid and the Live Aid concerts raised over 5100 million for famine relief in East Africa. The same lyrics accused of ruining children's lives are saving thousands of them. LnSl weekend's Farm Aid benefit con· certs raised millions to help the American farmer. And the trend doesn't stop there. IndividuaJ performers like Bruce Springsteen and Prince (one of the PMRC's prime targets) give tens of thousands of dollars each year to food banks and other charities. No one is for· dng them to do this, tJut they do. And no one is forcing teenagers or others to buy or listen to rock music. Anyone can turn the dial on a radio or change the channel on a television. The price one pays in a free society is the price 01 choice. There are words in the world that affend some people hut they never have to listen. The real effort should not be aimed at censoring rock music lyrics but at chan· neling the energies and resources of rock 'n' roll to beneficial ends. Parents need not fear the effect of questionable lyrics l dren's minds. on their chi What they do need to fear is that their children may grow up in a society that prohibits freedom of speech,

Lutes show class i n Dome by Clayton Cowl Mast Staff Reporter Football is only a game, but it seemed to be more than that last week as I left the vast confines of Tacoma's biggest clamshell-the Tacoma Dome, It was more than a game. It made a statement about PLU. It made a state• went of class. - .' 'AjiYon� can go to a college football game and see the big crowda, the color· ful bands and the talent on the field, Anyone can go to just about any university in the country and scan the cheerstaff. down a hot dog, some beer and add a little support to their school team. Excitement is always in the air. But not everyone can say that every time their team steps on the field. they have something to be proud of-a state­ ment of class, Class oozed from the Lute cheering section last Thursday night when PLU nailed UPS. Just a glance around the stadium was enough 1.0 convince me who came wil.h class. PLU signs were all positive. while UPS concentrated on buildingegos by negative moronity. Actions speak louder than words, and Lute actions were heard in the cheering sections the entire evening. Sure, it's easy to cheer when your l e. but it's team wins by n country mi sometimes just as hard to be a good winnner as it is a good lOSEr, Cheerleading was approached in a spirited, but professional manner and the team . . . well. that .!!pcaks for itself.

As PLU players knelt-in prayer after the final gun sounded, a tingling feeling of pride worked its way up my spine. There, after dispatching one of the top grid powers in the Northwest, PLU payers were thanking the one who made it all possible. It was a humbling experience.

PLU was a winner because they had 5,000 players on· their side. Everyone is a part of.. the yictory. The Lutes shin� with a certain class that leaves people on the outside in awe. When the football squad thunders out onto the field on crisp autumn Saturday afternoons and evenings, Lutes can stand up and shout. They'll be yelling for a stdtement of class in action.

Students seek academic quality and reputation by Krist! Thorndike Mast projects editor Students consider many fllCLorS when selecting a university, James Van Beek, Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid SIlid.

The mos'. often expressed reason students choose PLU is its academic quality and reputation he SIlid. '" wanted the academics to be more personal.iud," said Lynnette Shaw, PLU senior who transferred from Wcst.ern Washington University two ycnrs ago.

'" wanted to do more writing and not just take comput.eri:r.ed tests," she said. "\'U know I·ve learned something when I get out of here IPLlJ)," Cothy Walters, junior. who spent a year at the University of Hawaii. ' · V of H is a joke of a school," she said, "It (Hawaii) has a high illiteracy rate and they (V of H) sort of compensate for it." "Here you have to deserve the grade to b'Ct it.. At the U of H you didn't have to work for the classes," Walters said, Many students also said they think PLU is academically more challenging and more studying is needed than at some state schools. PLU junior Craig Forstrom, formerly a University of WashingtOn student said, "People here are more into their studies than at the U, It seerns like stu­ dying comes before everything else here:· "I knew I'd have to .atlldy a lot more here," Forstrom said, "Up at the U. I probably studied 4 hours a week." Beth Brown, PLU junior and former Seattle Pacific University and San Hose State student, said "Academically I think PLU is tougher. Classes are more difficult compared to the state schools," Four months ago in an article in the Los Angeles Times UCLA seniors com­ plained that their school prides itseJ[ on being among the top five universities in the nation but they nre not forced to think or write. They said that most classes were large and impersonaJ and that the professors seemed far more in­ terested in resenrch than teaching undergraduates. At PLU 85 to 90 pt'rcent of the students are studying: at the undergraduate leveJ said Van Beek. This is where the main focus is, he said.

"A typical experience" at. UCLA said SIO.'ati Adarkar. a senior honor student. "is that you sit passively n i a lecture hall with 400 students. You take notes for 10 weeks. have two multichoice ex' ams and get a final grade. "You are not forced to think. You don't have to write, and you don't discuss anything or question the professor-all the things you would ex­ pect to do in a college," said Adarkar, Jill Jones. VCLA senior. said in her first two years her smallest class "had about 100 students, The largest had about. 500. In fact, most. of them were near 500." At PLU the average class siU! is bet­ ween 12, 29 Van Beek said, "Student. body lJU:.e should mean more personal contact with fellow students. not just professors," Van Beek said. PLU students say the student body siM! was an important fact.« in choosing this institution, Van Beek said. This year enrollment is almost 3,700. Forstrom said he came here for the broadcasting: department, "I didn't get any hands-on experience at the U.(of WI, Here it's a lot smaller, not so com­ petitive," Forstrom said. Academic programs piay an impor­ tar.t roll in students' college se1ection Van Beek said. PLU offers 42 majora and 38 minors, "I feel like I'm getting a good liberal arts education," Deniee Suuc. a juruor from Eagle River, Alaska, said, "I feel really good about graduating from here." _ ... � Freshman James Elwyn from Salt Lake City. Utah. said that "out or all the schools I viaited. PLU was the most hospitable and friendly. "There is a lot of spiritual life here." Elwy�, said. PLU makes "you feel at home. Recommendations from parents, pastors, alumni and friends also in' f1uences students' decision to attend PLU Van Beek said. Rick Broha,,!gh. freshman from Orin' da, California. said that he was looking for a small Christian school when hun' ting for a college, "! wanted to get away from Cillifor· nia, from school, from my parents. , . I wanted a new start. "My parents encouraged me t.o come here, They supported my decision." he

Brown said, "The students t:lr'e are nicer than at other schoola.

" We didn't have as much interaction with the guys in the donna (at SPU) as we do here. Our IPLU's) football players are real cuties." Brown said.

"' like it here better. but I just like to shoot hoops. go watch the game and kick back." �aid Corliss. He said PLU offers a more casual and laid·back lif{'style. one that appeals to him.

Rules and regulations "It's easier at PLU to he your own person because of the regulations," said !jHnior Mark Esteh. who spent part of

his freshman year in the Alpha Tau Omega House. a fraternity at Washington State University. Regulations against ('xcess noise. and on-eampus use of alcohol keep students from denying others their individulIl rights. slIid Esteb. who has lived the past two years in Alpine Hall. "If you didn't have the regulations over alcohol and noise, these dorms would be like any other." he said. " Peo­ pie respect other people's individual rights here more. whereas there was more pressure to comply La other peo­ ple's norms at WSU, " "The alcohol restriction takes the peer pressure off freshman. At Wazoo it was kind of Iikc drink or clse." sliid Est!!". PLU's regulations may keep campus life calm. but after spending time in dorms and fraternities at other schools. most of the students interviewed found that most of the rules and regulations arc not adhered to very strictly. "Truthfully, with the rules you can get around them if you want La. I wasn't against them. because I knew I could get around them if , wanted, so they didn't affect me too much," said Rock. "I don't think they were too bad. a little strict, but they did keep you from get· ting too carried away. " Corliss agreed that PLU's restrictions "have a part here. but you and I know that if I want to have a few beers in my room I'll have some. If you want to get away with �mething you can."

Partying

Students also agt'eed that the regula· tions and general lifestyle at PLU tend to keep partying tem� as compared to other schools. However, they also agreed that alcohol and parties arc definitely available here. on campus and

off.

"When I look back to second west (a wing in Pflueger HaUl. that was a big party." said Rock of his two years at PLU. "I don't think it was that different than here in a frat. it's just that it was il· legal over there. so you had to try not to get caught or go off campus." Rock noted. however. that dorm life at PLU doesn't necessarily have to be "a big party." "In the dorms. if you're not into the party scene, it's not something you have

La do. You have to seek it out. The op· tion is there." said Hock. Corliss said PLU seems like much less of a party school than the UW. but he said he's "seen just as big messes in the dorms down here liS I ever did at the ·U·. ..

Good and bad points Like any college, PLU has its pre> blems, but most of the students inter· viewed were able to find a few aspects of PLU's campus lifeto praise. "PLU has a good program for in· itiating freshman into the dorms." noted Lisa Sigurdson, a fifth'year

She transferred to PLU after two years at Waldorf College in Forest City. Iowa. "The initiation program is really fun and positive. It makes the freshmen feel welcome." she said. "�lost friendships are made in the dorms. which is really good." Rock said he liked the individuality of dorm life compared to life in a fraternity. "It's not like a functional unit. like a frat. If you wanted todo something. you did it:' he s<tid. "It didn't matter so much what everyone else thought. When you're part of a unit of 55 guys. there are things you just should do. like attend functions and help keep the place up," "It's more dog eat dog up there. more intense: said Corliss of the UW. . . It·s more homey here. more relaxed." . . At PLU you have more of the sheltered. everybody help everybody idealist world." sllid Jeff Peterson.

Coffee Shop remodeling . creates relaxing atmosphere by Laura Newkirk Mast reporter Walking through the doorway I am em'eloped by the quiet swirl of KLSY's "eatles, the hum of diverse conversa· tions and the busy talk of the cash register. !\len in suits discusp school policies. Toast and milk accompanies a psychology text. With a Diet Coke in one hand and the other on her forehead. one student balances her checkbook. Relaxing in wicker·backed, blue cushioned chairs. students. staff. and faculty linger over coffee and a sandwich. This is no remote island of comfort. but PLU's OWn NEW coffee shop. Rumors of remodeling had drifted around campus last spring but this sum.

mer they were actualized. Plans for reconstruction lx!gan in January of this year and through the hard work of Food �rvices' Bob Torrens and the design frm of BargTeen and Ellingson, the cof. I fee shop evolved. Once the design was completed, the proposal and cost estimate were submit. ted to Perry Hendricks. President Rieke and the Board of Regents. Approval for the project was given in April. In the week and a half after graduation. the coffee shop shed its 15 years as a "coffee and grill" and put on the mantle of a Yuppie deli and salad bar. The 563 thousand remodeling cost may seem steep. but change was long overdue. Bob Torrens admitted "I never did like how it was built. too much red. Complaints about the room's design went beyond just the color.

The wall divisions weren't conducive to conversation and the bussing station was awkwardly located. lt·s desigu was 10 years behind many school's coffeeshops. Most included a deli sandwich counter and salad bar. Now. in addition to servo ing the PLU community as a refreshing place to eat and study. it. hosts banquets. Since its completion in June. the cof· fee shop has housed four banquets and a wedding re<:eption. Such after·hours use was previously impoSSible.

They are being careful not to offend anyone, but because they're looking for "cold. hard facts." the questions must be to the point. Taylor stre5SCS that above all. hones· ty is their main concern.

Demolition work has begun on the In· gram Hall remodeling project. which will become the new home for the Com· munication Arts department. T e remodeling will take place in .the se<:tlOn of the building located on the corner of I and 121st streets. It was formerly occupied by the School of Nursing which has since been moved to Ramstad Hall. The Comm Arts department is presently located in Blomquist House. The space will be utilized in the follow· ing ways: two classrooms devoted to journalism. offices. a debate room. a lounge, and storage areas. Also being constructed are a perfor. mance video studio and an art gallery. The old gallery will be used as a student art gallery. Dean Graduate and Sum· mer Studies. who is involved in art in· terests. will also move into Ingram Hall from the Administration Bui l ding. The rerr.odeling project requires rewir· ing, changes in me<:hanical systems, new lighting, and new floor-covering. The en· tire effort is budgeLed at approximately 5325.000. said Jim Phillips. director of the Physical Plant. Another remodeling projoct is ill the planning stage. A third floor will be add· ed to the Library. The structure. built in 1967. was designed to accommodate three floors. The foundation is strong enough and only slight modifications on the cle<:· trical system and elevator will need to be made. Those will mainly to deal with changes in construction methods and materials since 1967. According to Phillips. the construc· tion poses one interesting problem; car­ rying on work quietly while the library remains open. To relieve this somewhat, it is hoped that the roof and wall work will be accomplished during the summer or 1986 or 1987. The entire proje<:t will take eleven to fifteen months to complete. One other proje<:t is in its final plann. ing stages. The Computer Center was

Taylor says he feels more positive about the situation with the more people he talks to. Some of the staff that he has spoken with seem to have been helpful. Whi le Mary Lou Fennelli. Vice-President for Student Life, does have to support the rules whieh are set by the University. .she has admit.ted to Taylor that she feels the policy is ineffe<:tive. Taylor is waiting for official letters from Lauralre Hagen. dire<:tor of Residental Life. and Jan Maul·Smith. coordinator of Student Housing. Although he said that though they both support the policy as it stands now. they seemed open to a trial period with a different system. Of the administration. Taylor said. "They haven't shut any doors on us yet and try to be as positive as they can." Taylor realizes that the changes would affect more that just visitation policy. It would change the roles of RAs and others but he feels they are changes aU students and faculty could handle.

Men booters minus scorers fall to U PS, 3-2

by Mike Condardo

Mast sports editor The PLU men's soccer squad played host to the University of PugeL Sound Wednesday, and the Logger's were very rude guests handing ! �e Lutes a 3-2 defeat. The first half saw very little scoring with the only goal coming lute in the period when Logger Matt Smith beat the PL U defense for the first tally of the game. The Logger's scored at the opening of the second·half to go up 2·0. but the Lutes answered back with a score by Andy Johnson on a penalty kick to close the margin to 2-1. Another Logger goal upped the score to 3-1, but the Lutes were not finished yet. Another J>f'nulty kick, this time from S\'end I.cirvaag closed the margin to 3·2. but time ran out on the Lutes, sending their season record to 6-3, "We were missing by only a fraction of a step."' said head coach Jim Dunn. "We had posession and ran play most of the game, but doing that doesn't meun you're going to win. , . The Lutes oULshot the Loggers 20-10, but it was the inability to put those shots into the goal that lead to the Lutes fall. The Lutes were also without the ser­ vices of their leading goal scorers: Kevin Iverson, Anie i\l assaglia, (lnd Kevin Martin, Dunn didn't want to use that as an excuse though, "We gave them some incentive by giv­ ing them the first goal:' said Dunn. "We've beat them two straight and that , has given them some motivation. . The Lutes beat UPS n i the opening game of this year's series 3·2 with Mark Ambucher hitting the winner in the 85th

minute. In the seeond game, Iverson hit all three goals as the Lutes roileD to a 3·0 shutout. The Lutes were coming off a second· place finish at the Redwood City Tour· nament in Arcata, California. which the were handed only their second loss of the season, a 2·1 loss in the champion' ship game to host Humboldt State. in the Arcata tourney, the Lutes won their opener 1.0 over Sonoma State with Tor Brattvag picking up the goal. In the loss to Humboldt State, Kevin Martin picked up the lonegoal for the Lutes, The Lutes have eight starters back from last year's team which finished 9·4·3, who were knocked out of the 1985 district playoffs in triple-overtime to the 1983 national champion Simon Fraser. Dunn, who WIlS selected as the NAIA District 1 soccer Coach of the Year in his first season. has built around an all-star goalkeeper in Rose and a talented collec· tion of midfielders. Rose, who earned aU·league honors und had a 1.33 goal yield per game last season, has recorded four shutouts already in 1985. matching his total season performance of 19d4. The Lutes have a strong midfield led by Iverson, who was selected aU·league and aU·district in 1984, will try to beller his 12 goals and 8 assist performnce of last season. Other Lutes in the midfield will in· clude seniors Svend Leirvaag and Marty Ambacher, junior Ed Brown. and frosh DlIve Sorenson. At forward, PLU have juniors Artie Massaglia and Mike Keene. along with sophomores Kevin Martin and Tim Steen, and frosh forward Bill Rink. The Lutes next action will be tomor·

Women's soccer team has young,

prepared squad

by r:red r:itch Mast reporter The PLU women's soccer team is abun· dant with new faces this year as nine of the 17 players are freshman. Only one senior is on tnis year's squad. The Lutes got off to an early start, reporting on August 25. The team reported early to prepare for the Santa Clnra tournament. "Reporting early ended up being a real plus for us," said coach Coleen Hacker. "It gave the team a chance to come together as a group. The Leam got to know each other off the field as well as on the field." "Returning players ha'le come back in the best physical condition that we've ever had," said Ibcker. This year's captains are senior mid· fielder Pam Semrau and junior goalkeeper Knthleen Ryan. Ryan earned aU.league and all·district recognition last year.

Junior Stacy Waterworth. sophomore Beth Louthain, and freshman Sonya Brandt make up the forward line. Brandt is Oregon's aU·time leading prep scorer. She was a two time high school all·american. Sophomore Ruth Frobe was the team's leading scorer last year, Frobe changed postitions to sweeper, "She has been outstanding," Backe said of Frobe. "She has been defensive leader in three of our first five games. She has been one of the most imprO\·ed players on the team." Junior Sandy McKay is the central midfielder, She has never playoo there before. "She has been really controlling the tempo of the game, " said Hacker of McKay. The Lutes started the season by tra,'elling to San Francisco to par­ ticipate in the Santa Clam tournament. In the first game of the tournament the Lutes lost to Westmont 5·3. The LULes fell behind 3·]. but came bUl·k to tie the seore Ht 3·3 before giving up t.wo gemls in the last ten minutes. The Lutes took on NC,\A OJ''jsion I

Santa Clara in the next game of the tour· nament and lost 2.0. In the same day the Lutes faced the defending N A J A na· tional champion St. Mary's and lost again 2"(). "We enjoyed getting toplfly the tough competition," said Hacker, "It was also exciting to gel to spend. a week in Sun Fr&ncisco.'· Brandt and goalkeeper Gail Stenzel were both selected on the tournamnet ali'Slar team. Brandt and Stenzel are both freshmen. As a team the Lutes brought home the Sportsmanship Award. PLU was cited in the six teum LOurnamenL for good sportsmanship and inspiration. "Nothing could make us prouder:' said Hacker. "The uward reflects the PLU spirit." The team came back from the tourna· ment and beat the alumni 4·1. " It was exciting LO bring back some of the old players," l>uid Hacker. "We had a good opportunity to work on passing and ball control." Last Friday the Universitiy of Porland fell victim to the LutC5 1·0. Brandt scored early in the second half of an assist from Waterworth for the only goal.

The Lutes finished with a 4·24 mark last S{'ason. and after three outings in 1985. PLU has a record of 4·5. In their last match at the University of Puget Sound, the Lutes dropped three straight games to the Loggers on their home court 1'uesday night: 15·7. 15·4. and 15·3.

In the first game. Lute Dana Hinman opened the game by serving the Lutes to a HI lead, but the Loggers bounced right back with four quick points to go up 4·3 and never looked back. Game two saw the Loggers open up an early 7. () lead which was never threaten· ed in the Lutes 15,4 loss. But in game three, the Lutes were determined and willing.

Moore predicts that this ratio win continue to decrease as runners who got a late start training move up and challenge the leaders. Two of the top five runners for the men's team were freshman. Placing third alld fourth for the Lutes were Alan Giesen and Ken Gardner. two freshman with strong high school crosso(:ountry backgrounds. "This is the strongest group of

Mast news editor

Lynnette Shaw turned back the threat of 11 last-minute write-in candidate to capture the ASPLU comptroller posi­ tion in yesterday's special election, Shaw, who has served the past seven monthll as an off�mpus senator, received 260 votes to defeat write-in can­ didllte Matt Taylor, who received 147 votes. Taylor is currently the ASPLU parlimentarian. Up until Wednesday morning, Shaw W89 oppoged in the race by senior Rick Dujmov, who withdrew from the elec· tion that day. In a nOle to ASPLU Presi· dent Laurie Soine, DujmoY said an ex· pected internship would prevent him from serving all comptroller, Taylor s�id his decision to run was hn�C(1 on OuilllOv's .. .oithdrnwl.

"I'd thought about runnmg mlllally .....hen Ty resigned, but Rick Dujmov, a good friend of .mine, wa!!! running, " Taylor said. "so I decided to keep my name offthe ballot." Taylor aaid his decision to campaign was based on Dujmov's withdrawl from th., comptroller race. Hill decision was, finalited around midrught Wednesday ni�ht. " I feel I'll be competent in the position," said Shaw, "For the last !leven months I've been researching the budget. Right now there are a lot of inside problems that students may not know about," she said. Shaw said her decision to run for com· ptroller was made "as a political state­ ment to let the admirustration know there is a student whO'll willing to ques· tion the system and the process of how we gel our money and how it's handled." "She'!!! very competent," said ASPLU President l..al,.rie Soine. "She's very in· volved, "('rv C(Immilted, When she ,�larts something lIh., really gets involved."

The special comptroller election was held to replace Ty Dekofski, who of· fidally resigned his position Sept. 23, Soine said ASPLU has been without a comptroller "since we've been back to school, and for two weeks, officially." "I'm excited," Soine said. "The other officers will appreciate having the posiLion (comptroller) filled, It'll be good to have help with bills, budgeting, and other financial matters at ASPLU,"

Soine said ASPLU has a few money matters to be cleared up, and hopes Shaw's move into the comptroller's of­ fice will speed things up, "The major bills have been paid, but the little ones keep coming in." said Soine. "We still have money matters that need to be cleared. up." Shaw's election left an opening in th...

Campus

Anti Apartheid Day to coordinate protests by Emily Morgan Mast reporter

A nation-wide Campus Anti Apar­ theid Protcst Day has been designated by the American Committee on Africa forOctober I I . 1985. i being organi.zed by At PLU the rally s Phyllis Lane, director of Minority Student Programs, and Pastor Ron TeUef90n of Campus Ministries. The purpose of the rally, Lane said, is to protest the discrimination policies of South Africa with other campuses throughout the nation. This summer Lane went to Nairobi, Kenya to attend Forum 85, an int.enla· tionaJ conference on South Africa. Lane said that while there she met some black women from Africa that asked her to tell

Americans their government shouldn't support apartheid in South Africa. Lane said she didn't know if these women are alive today or imprisoned, but added that "Yes, we do have a global r.esponsibility here at PLU, and we can't turn away from it any longer." In response to increased unrest in South Africa, the American Committee on Africa has recommended severaJ ac­ tivities for October 11, 1985 as an avenue of protest. Students and faculty are encouraged to wear a black arm band 'to show solidarity. The ann bands will be distributed that day. The 10 a.m. chapel service will focus on peace and justice as it relates to South Africa. Information about South Africa will be distributed 8S well 85 petitions to de­ mand the release of Nelson Mandela,

leader of the African National Con­ ference, an outlawed black resistance group. Mandcla was sentenced to life im­ prisonment 23 years ago for treason and sabotage. The petition will also call for the release of students arrested for leading demonstrations at their schools, and other political prisoners. Observers of this day are also asked to write their Congressmen and other government officials to demand disinvestment of South Africa. (Current­ ly there are about 300 U.S. companies in South Africa with a total investment of some $2.5 billion dollars.) Apartheid is employed by the white ruling class of South Africa to keep its black population from sharing govern­ ment powCJ", wealth, OJ' education with the whites.

The black.'1 of South Africa make up 71 percent of its total population and through a recent "homelands" program, have been transported from their homes to live on 13 percent of the nation's more desolate lands. These "homelands" are called "states" by thegovemment. Apartheid also takes the form of segregated toilets, workplace cafeterias, and railroad coaches. Passbooks are required for blacks to enter the cities to work during the day. Defense spending to protect apartheid has - inCl'6ll5ed by 800 percent in the past decade up to $2.15 billion dollars. Some experts have estimated t t ry s count the apartheid, without economy could grow at a 12 percent an­ nual rate rather than the 2.S percent rate of the past decade.

New UC art causes shock, controversy among students, staff 'Sunday Morning' loaned to PLU after Tacoma Museum exhibition by Miriam Baeon Mast reporter

When Bob Torrens, food service direc­ tor, talked to the art department last spring about displaying some art in the University Center, he got what he ex· pected - and a whole lot more. He expected pictures or paintings. He got the painting, but it came on an approximateJy 18 x 15 foot piece of sculpture. The first introduction Torrens got to the new art was when he saw the scar. folding being brought in by a maintenance crew. Torrens wanted some art to cover up some of the white wall on the west end of the dining room above the windows, but the art piece ended up being displayed high on the waU on the cast end of the dining room. "The immediate reaction was that I spent food service money on it," Torrens said. He did not. The sculpture painting is on loan from the artist. Barbara Minas. Minas is an assistant an professor at PLU. '"How much did it cost'?" Bruce Usndel!. II senior asked when he first

suwit

"'How long has it been up there'?" was the que�tion many students asked when they camE' to dinner that Monday night last week. The piece had not been up long. only a few hour� when student�

first noticed it. "I thi nk it was a shock" for students to see. Torrens said. " 1 think it d!)ec'j add

something to the dining room" "Sunday Morning" was exhibited last

May in the Tacoma Art Museum's UniversitylCoUage Arts Faculty exhibition.

Sunday Morning is in the shape of a

big cross surrounded by things that noated upon the beach at Commence­ ment Bay. Minus said. Things thrown out by factories or industries. Things "yuppies throw away" that arc not old but just cast off. . , I'm interested in reOecting culture as I see it today," Minas said. Sunday Mar· ning is not "ba�l!d on th{' pasC' but is :"1inus' perception of the current interest in Christianity. the corporute industry. und Tacoma. "Sunday Morning is II piece of

religious art. It ill an altar screen made to express a deep spiritual aearch through the mire of our times" wrote Warren Wotton of the TacomaNews Tribune in a review of this three­ dimensional piece. The entire review is posted under tbepiece in the U.C. It's a seasonal piece of winter and winter COIOfS 85 Minu 800S at Com­ mencementBay. The painting lICulpture breaks down to severaJ sections. Mina! worked on each section by benel!' She did not lIDC it together until it waa displayed at tbe Tacoma Arts Museum. "It was really exciting for me. I had only seen it insections, Minas said. Student response was not positive. "That is not an appropriate art piece to be displayed in an eating area," said Junior Ken Ryals. Another student compared the work to that of s child. "If I had a kid who was six years old Ihel could probably do it with no instructions needed. " saio a senior in the art department. "'This does nothing for me," he said.

"I eXp<'Ct a lot of controversy." Minas said. "I don't eXp<'Ct people to like it Ilt first. " It makes her nervous when people in· stantly like her work she said. "I'm hop· ing they 'U (justl respond to it." she said.

Students should "stop worrying if they like it and start looking at it." Minas said. SU:1day Morning was created last in· terim. Minas worked on it during after· noons, nights and on weekends. She works in an unlighted mini·storage warehouse. The cost is extremely irrelevant," Minas said. "Not one penny" was fund­ ed by PLU and " an is really expensive," she said. A group of people "active in art wanted it displayed on campus," she said. They were looking for a place to display it when Torrens requested some art for the U.C. Minas hsd nothing to do the the resulting negotiations. She said she hopes it will be up for most of the year. Don't be surprised if you come to like it. .. Art tends to b'TOW on you." she sliid.

Hoffman said the debate was about growing old. priorities and values. "'It's about a strategy of social change. It's a debate that goes on n i every people," he said. Hoffman criticized Rubin's Yuppie movement as a "mythicaJ creation. A lifestyle created by the media to sell Mercedes and Rolexes (watchos)." "For every entrepreneur driving around in a Porsche, c85hing in on the stock market out there, there are three single mothers with kids sucking the glue off food stamps," he said.

If felony charges against two Tacoma adult bookstores come to trial in Pierce County Superior Court. ' the cases will become the first to test Washington state 's obscenity law. Employees of Sportland Amusement. 13022 Pacific Avenue. and Show World. 9] \5 South Tacoma Way. were arrested July 17 and charged with promllting pornography after sheriffs deputies seized '·Iewd·· magazines and video tapes frern, the two stores. Trial dates have been set for the cases. bUI defense atlurneys will likely seck dismissals at preliminary hearings scheduled in October. The obscenity law. passed by the Washington Stale Legislature in 1982. has never been challenboe(l in the state court system, but has been heard in Federal Court and the United States SupremeCnurt. After the law was passed. several Inwsuits were instantly filed claiming that several aspects of the statute were unconstitutional because the First Amendment prOtects freedom of speech. The Federal District court in Spokane upheld the statute in 1982, claiming the obscenit}' law \Oo'as constitutional because ob!ICenity is nOI a protected form of speech. After that decision, continued con· troversy over Washin�:"1.on·s ob!ICenity law focused on the definition of " prurient-" Prurient is defined as ,. that which in· cite!l lasciviousness or lust." I n 1984 the 9th Circuit Court of Ap' peals in San Franci!ICO ruled that the definition of prurient in the Jaw was too broad because it included the word " Iust:'

Defense attorney for the Sportland Amusement case, Victor Hoff of Seattle. sa id that the word lust '"made thedefini· tion too broad because it implied an ap· peal to a normal. healthy everydlty in· terr'st in sex and was not limited to a shameful. morbid interest in sex:' That decision was appealed to the United States Supreme Court wruch decided this year that the definition was too brood, but that the 9th Circuit Courl of Appeals was wrong when it in· validated the entire statute. The law was bounced back to the 9�h Circuit Court which has issued no new decision on the word ··Iust."

Supreme Court William Brennan

Justice

Pierce County Superior court is IIble to try the cases because it was not nom' ed in an enjoining order prohibiting King County, Spokane County. Yakima County and the attorney general of Washington from prosecuting anyone under the obscenity law until the 9th Circuit Court decides on the "'lust" definition. The primary issue in these cases is whether the material sold at the bookstores is obscene as defined by the United States Supreme Court. The Supreme Court has said obscene ex, pressions are not protO?Cted by Ihe First Amendment.

as unything- that the aVl!raj,(e pt'rson. tip' plying "contemporary community stan· dards:' would find as lin appeal to prurient interests. Deputy prosecutor for the Spo�t1and Amusement case, Ed Murphy, said the Roth v. U.S. case was "'a landmark deci· sian and all the cnses since have sprung from that." "'It·s a very compiicated IIrea because there lire !lOme �irst Amendment , . aspects to It, We re 1M an area that no one has worked with as far as the statute," Murphy said. Bec:ause of the . compICltit� of both . cases , Murphy said he antICipates the final decisions will be challenged · 'all the way up the courts." Defense attorney Hoff said he will move for dismissal of the Sportland , Amusement case when It comes before Pierce County Superior Court Judge Waldo F. Stone at a preliminary hearing Oct. 16. Hoff said the search warrant sheriff's deputies used to enter the store was im· properly presented and did nol meet constitutional requirement that states the warrant must describe the person or persons being searched and the articles to be sei:ted, . Hoff said the warrant only " specified one publication:' "Chains and Whips:' and contained general information that sheriff's deputies used to · ·embark on a massive seizure. They took everything they wllnted: ' Hoff said. Hoff said he will also argue the legali. ty of a last·minute emergency clause the Washington State Legislature tacked on to the law before ratifying it. Under the Washington state constitu· tion. all laws passed by the legislature are subject to referendum (direct popular vote) by the peo �le. .

The constiluli"l! OlltLlnes two excep· . tions to the clause, neither of wh'ch ai'"

plies to the obscenity law. HoH said. If a lnw is nC(:essary to support the state government or existing insUtu· tions, a public vote can be bypassed. Th� same is true if a law is necessary for immediate preservation of public wl'lfare. It is trus exception legislators claimed when they ratified the ob!ICenity law without a public vote. Hoff said the trurd reason for his dismissal motion would be whether the law is constitutional under Washington state's frccspeech provision. "'There are more protections for citizens in our provision:' he said. "Our Istate) Supreme Court will have to decide that:' The original preliminary hearing was scheduled for Sept. 25 but the prosecuting attorney's orfice asked that a new hearing be set for Oct. 16 beclluse the arresting officers could not be in court. Murphy said the Show World case in· volves the some issues but will be tried before Pierce County Superior Court Judge Nile E. Aubrey in December.

Pom case reaches court Preliminary hearings for Sportland Amusement manager Byron Reece. 4\, and employee Terry Styers, 44. are set for Oct. 16 in Judge Waldo F. Stone's chambers in Pierce County Superior Court. Should that case go to trial, it will be heard by Stone on Feb. 3, 1986. Jesus Longoria, 42. manager of Show World. and employees John Pate. 20. and Daniel Mum, 29, are scheduled to appear in a preliminary hearing Oct. 29 before Judge Nile E. Aubrey and in court Dec. 2.

The Parkland Theater, an area eSlablishment and haunt for PLll students since the 1950s. has a new look this year both on the screen and in the lobby. Major improvements in style and ser' vice were made over the 5ummer. accor' ding t..o Theater House Manager Rich Palamidess. These changes include stronger efforts to discipline patrons. new furnishings and a selection of newer films. The Pacific Avenue theater was becoming a kid's hangout, said Palamidess. and the management wanted the moviehouse t..o appeal to all people. He said last winter problems with school·age children were especially bad. But a new policy system hBS curbed much of thl! unruly behavior. Smoking is no longer allo.....ed inside the theater partly due to a recent Pierce County ordinance prohibiting smoking in public places. On weekends a sheriffs deputy is stationed outside the bolt office LO deal with Unruly or disrespectful people on the premises. Woody Long. the theater's assistant manager said that the community children just need II plllce togo. "We'd like to have them here, but you must put your foot down," he said. Providing a smoking area outside the building has helped La keep people hap· py, said Long. Paiamidess hopes La "clean up" the house. The lobby has heen redecorated already and a new set of chairs will be in· stalled shortly. He recalls the " 1950 's" furnishings in the theater when he was employed three

years ago and thinks II more modern look will uplift the theater's atmosphere. Slar Cir.emas. a small local chain of moviehouses, now owns the Parkland Theater. As one of three theaters in the chain, the Parkland is able to acquire more recent films at bargain prices. "We're still a second·run house," said Palamidess. But the new owners have made a prac· tice of renting films as soon as they are available at a reasonable price. In turn. a lot of people wait just a little longer to see a movie and can save a little mone)'. he said. For each evening, or 99 cents dur­ ing the afternoon. patrons may view a double feature. "E.T., the Extra Ter· restrial" and "D.A.H.Y.L:· are current­ ly showing at the Parkland. Movies are screenro at the theater us long as attendance remains steady and the decision La change rilms may not be made until a few days \)cfore lh(' picture' arrives. With the acquisition of better films. Palamidess is hoping to attract more PLU students. "We're counting on that." he said. "especially !,e('ause the theater hus UPb'Taded its appearance." The manager said PLU students usually attend the Parkland on SundaY5. "It really depends on what we're play. ing.·· he said. Although the Parkland area has undergo!!e major changes in the past 30 years, the spirit of the lheatl!!' still reminds o!!e of the people who attended Saturday matinees for 10 cents. And both managers hop(! it remains II place for families and other communitv . members to enjoy II good movie.

Kracht said after seven full rehearsals and several sectional practices the sym· phony is sounding better than ever. "I'm really pleased with the whole or· chestra this year.

"We're going to field a stronger team this fall," he said. The 7S·member !'Iymphony is the universities only outlet for orchestral music. according to Kracht. and he hopes to garner more support from the PLlJ community this year.

_The Mast, �ober4, 1965

Viewpoints Editorial The "Yipple vs. Yuppie" debate Tuesday night was more of a hindsight look at student activism in the 60s than a discussion about what colleges In the 80s have to say about the world. Nonetheless, the event raises the question whether today's colleges are stili platforms for student activism. With PLU's Anti Apartheid Potest Day a week away, PLU students will get the chance to answer that question. Let's hope we use the opportunity to show that college students In the 80s do have a social conscience, and that we are willing to shout out against Inhumanity In South Africa the way 60s activists Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin st?Od up against legal segregation in the South. If we do not take the opportunity. Hoffman's assertion that PLU Is nothing more than "Yuppie turf"may be true. I�offman criticized today's students at his press conference Tuesday as "Nice little rich ladles and 'genliemen trying to be bigger rich ladles and gentlemen, and not concerned with social Issues, not concerned with U.S. foreign policy. More conservative than the general pOpulation." Sure, limes are different than they were In the 60s. As Hoffman analyzed, the 60s were unique years. It was a time of legal segregation In the South, of an immoral war In Vietnam. Together with low tuition rates and a newly developing rock culture, the Umes were rlghl for college students to shake the mighty fist of activism. But students today sllil feel outrage over human Injustice. As Hoffman said, apartheid Is an obvious target because II Is so easily Idenllfled as a moral crime. Hoffman said student activism Is "waking up" all over the c untry. and . "It's anti·apartheid that's doing It." Next week Is PLU's big chance to be a part of that "waking up." Anti Apartheid Day, organized by students through the American Com­ mittee on Africa, will Involve universities throughout the nallon. Hoffman ekpects over a million students to participate. PLU will offer a Special chapel service so that students opportunity to spiritually contest apartheid in South Africa. By signing pelltlons and writing congressmen, students can oppose apartheid pragmatically. And by participating In Anti Apartheid Day, PLU students can sym­ bolically take a stand against apartheid. Just as Importanlly, PLU can show Abbie Hoffman that PLU Isn't a sheltered p�ce of �yupple �urf," but a body of students that are capable of saying something about human InJuslice.

Search

for the elusive Lute

by CI.yton Cowl Mast staff reporter

I think there may be an internal pro­ blem here at PLU. It all stems from our beloved mascot, The Lute. After &9king administrators, alumni and professors from every department (including anthropology and ultimate frisbee), after interrogating the presi· dent and contemplating the Good. I give up_ What the heck s i a Lute? I can' t figure it out. It's frustrating. Who in their right mind would bless a school with a mascot that looked like a fatal reactiorl between an Eddie Van Halen guitar and a violin that looked like it got caught in a prune dr ier? Most universities have "norm81" msscots. Auburn totes Tandy the Tiger around at their home games. The University of Washington dresses a poor freshman up as an eskimo and makes him cart around a sled full of stuffed husky dogs. The University of Puget Sound Log­ gers have it e&9y. They just dress in their nonnal casual attire. For those who think the " Lutes" is 'just short for Lutherans, English ma· jars have news for you. It's redundant. Trite. The Pacific Lutheran Lutherans. Cmon. PLU students have been pu.z.zling long winter nights trying to decide exactly what to bring to the games as a mascot. There's a rumor that a Lute is a furry little neosaccharine galvoslab with black horns and a gold body. However, I've yet to 500 one plastered on a t·shir t or hat. at the bookstore, so it can't be right. No one seems to know what a Lute is. Okay, this is the 80s and change is be­ ing preached every de:,.. Why not a change for ole Limpy the Lute? The University of Minnesote Golden Gofers

Of OQune, we could stay with the reputation of being Mr. Nice Guy. The PLU Optimista. Nope. Sounds too much like a club. "Ladies and Gentlemen...lntroducing the Pacific Lutheran University Eternal Bliss." No. Aristotle and Plato couldn't figure out what eternal bliss was, so how can we feeble-minded oafs do it? Maybe the PLU Polymers or the Free Radicals. The chemistry department would be proud. Oripnality should be a must. The Golden Rules? The Amy Grants? What sbout the PLU Projectiles? Not catchy enough. The PLU Kangaroos! Go Roos! The PLU Pastors? Can you picture the PLU Pomegranates? The varsity football helments lined with a huge pomegranate with muscular legs and foreanns projec­ ting from its torso along with a huge grin. Or maybe the Gorfballs with a capital hairy "G". it seems that it really is a big problem. What does a Lute look like? What in the world s i a " Running Lute?" We need to solve such pressing issues as gelting a mascot now instead of spen­ ding valuable time replacing defaulted ASPLU officers or trying to balance a buget after such fiscal masterpieces such as sockhops and giant concerts in 8 pre-planned money·losing effort. Pursuing financial and other pressing matters needs to be intelligently dealt with, or PLU's litudent government will sink to new ull·time lows. niceguysl).

H udson loses AI DS baHle, remedies for control suggested by Lyl. M, Jenn... The media's hype 01 aclor Aock Hud· son's recent death after his lullle struggle with the killer disease AIDS has done more than /usl boost nelwork ratings and sell newspapers. In addition to conlerrlng a coarse new implication to the famous Pruden­ tial Insurance Company slogan, the Hudson saga has been the catalyst lor unprecedented public alarm over this yet Incurable plaQue.

OPINION

Thus lar, the disease which once thrived within the homosexual enclaves 01 urban America, has claim­ ed the lives of 100 percent 01 lis vic­ tims; Hudson being the most recen!. Anyone who contracted this virus in 1980 and 1981, l s aiready dead. At this lime Iwo years ago, 1,631 people had AIDS. As ol lasl month the figure has Jumped to a staggering 12.932 wllh stilt no end or cure In sight. However, most of the panic has stemmed from the epidemlc'S mallg­ nanl proilleration Inlo a predominantly heterosexual populace. As of Juty 1983, there were 109 unex­ plained AtDS cases. These victims homosexuals nor were neither members 01 one of the other high risk groups, but · rather unsuspecting heterosexuals who, even up to their deaths, had no idea as to how they contracted the virus. Lasl week, the Center, for Disease Control had reported this ligure to be a disquieting 814. an increase 01 nearly 800 percent in lust ov"!r two years.

ThiS lethal enigma which was once wrltten·olf under the auspices of being an exclusively "gay plague'" has r.ow become an explosive religious and political issue. Many theologians adhere to biblical scripture from the BI­ ble's Genesis (Chapter Two) which clearly slates, "Adam and Eve" nol, "Adam and Sieve." Furthermore, they go on to say: There was no mlsprtnt, no mistaken Identity, and the latter clear· Iy Is an abomination against the almighty God and they (The Homosex· uals) will surely be condemmed to hell. Others are like Port Commissioner Jim Wright, a worthy candidate for King County Execullve, who made headlines when he advocated the Quarantine of AIDS carriers. Health officials in San Francisco and New York evoked the wrath of gay activists when they closed down cer· tain bath houses. long believed to be the spawning grounds for AIDS and other diseases and determined. to be public health hazards. The U.S. Armed Forces have begun screening all of theIr new recruits for the disorder and children with AIDS have been barred from attending public schools. Many gay rights groups have viewed these and other equivalent measures by government as an Infringement upon their civil liberties. Although we are guaranteed numerous rights and prlvlloges under our constitution, It Is important to remember that these freedoms are af· forded only 10 those activities that do not seriously endanger oneself or one's fellow citizens.

Enrollment slipping

In short. government has no right, constitutionally or morally, to dictate the se)l:ual orientation 01 Its governed. However. It not only has the right, but indeed the obligation to protect Its citizenry from any potentiat threats to Its health and welfare. To contain and eventually eliminate the hazard that AIDS transmits throughout our society, the following steps should be taken: l.Increased funding lor AIDS research. All other containment will prove Ineffective unless we lind a cure lor the epidemic before It can afflict a large portIon of our society. 2.Screen all potential blood donors and require them to sign a statement regarding their health . and sexual oriental Ion. 3.Establish firm guidelines to pro­ tect public servants and others who have 10 deal with the carriers. 4.AeQuire physicians to report the names and addresses of AIDS victims 10 stale health boards. We should be skeptical of the demagogues and the alarmists who e)l:ploil the AIDS Issue to carty out their own hate campaign against homosexuals. The fight Is against AIDS, not homosexuality. This killer disease can be. overcome with a pragmatic policy of contain· ment and an accelerated program of medical research.

jCPS) The Census Bureau says a lo-year decline in ootsl school enroll· ment may forcast slipping college enroll· ment, but returning adult students pushed up college populations 45 per. cent between 1970and 1981. College enrollment went from 7.4 millionon 197000 10.7 million on 1981. At the same time. students' median age climbedfrom 27.9 years to 31.2. and the number of students younger than 22 slipped to 48 percent

Measle risk increases New ooUege students stand a 15 per­ cent chance of catching the measles by the end of this school year, said resear­ chers in • recent College Press Service article. They blame the epidemica of recent years on a weak vaccine distributed bet­ ween 1957 and 1967 and the large number of unimmuniz.ed young adults.

PEACE CORPS

Dr. E. Grey Dimond of the U. of Missouri's med school says the U.S. and the Soviet Union ought to exchange about 250,000 college students a. year. The presence of the "'hostages" would deter both sides from starting a nuclear war. he reasons. and fear for their citiz.en·s welfare would reduce friction between the two countries.

University Plan to give guidance, refinements Faculty input emphasized by Jonathan

Feste

Mast reporter

President Rieke's recently published ';-�r t"cul· .. five-year plan for PLU f' ty input to control PLl olperating costs while still maintaining current academic standards. Provost Richard Jungkuntz said that an eight·member faculty group, compos­ ed of members from each school and divison, will work in tandem with university administrators to realize the five-year plan'sgoals, plan's Jungkuntz described the foremost question as being, " Are we still aware of our main purpose and w!lat we want to be?" The year 1990 will be the university's centennial year. Between now and then, PLU will be "balancing the mobile" of university operations, Jungkuntz said. The initial statement in Rieke's plan emphasized PLU's strong Lutheran roots. Jungkuntz compared the vision of the Rieke report to the days of ex-PLU President Seth Eastvold. before PLU became a university. Students and faculty at that time knew exactly why they were here, he said. PLU is once said focus, its again ' sharpening Junkkuntz, Future emphasis at PLU will'be on maintaining current enrollment. It also

will continue to be an institution where the faculty know each other and where jJrofessional programs have a sturdy position atop PLU's foundation in the arts. he said, l iberal

Defining PLU's goals is just On(! part of the plan, The " nuts and bolt.s" of im· plementing measures to keep university costs down and academic standards up definitely requires faculty input, the provost said. . In general the plan seeks to give university administrators a "firmer grip on the rudder," Jungkuntz said. But, he added, PLU would not be a "first closs school" without good facul· ty and staff. "We need a balanced faculty point of view," he said, "We tthe administrationl don't want to be stupid.. ' he said, em­ phasizing the need for CQst control while remaining concerned about academic excellence. The largest expenditure in PLU's budget is payroll demand, he !laid. Though the faculty group will be ind ""ays to reduce responsible to f payroll costs. none of the means to do this have been set yet and they will only be implemented after much study, he said. But the possibilities, the provost said, include reducing the amount of non· required courses, re<:onfiguring existing

Mexican quakes create concerns; local officials are tremor-ready by Jonathan Feste Mast reporter Re<:ent Mexican earthquakes have i once again rocked Northwesterners nto tremor awareness, The last big Washington quake, registering 6,5 on the Richter scale, hit in 1965. Its effe<:t on PLU was noticed three years later when an engineering in­ spection determined that a cracked Harstad Hall chimney required removal. according to Physcial Plant Director Jim Phillips. No other damage was reported. Since 1965, the Northwest's soil has been relatively unshaken. Yet Charles Pearson, the principal civil/structural engineer in the City of Tacoma's building department, believes the area may be overdue for another big quake. citing the 16·year span between the 1965 tremor and an even large one that reached 7.1 on the Richter in 1949. But sure of that statistical he's nOl possibility, He has no doubt that the destruction in Mexico City was catastrophic. But doesn't expect earthquake damage to be repeated on a similar Olagnitude here. to a recently· referred Pearson announced statistic which projects that people could die in the after· up to Olath of a Puget Sound earthquake. He calls that 'doomsayers' talk. Pearson said area construction stan· dards and inspe<:tion practices are geared toward high life-safety stan· dards, Contractors, designers, and of· ficials in his office work closely together tu create buildings that won't collapse in ellfthquakes, he said. That doesn't mean they can't bedamaged. he added. Though his office is conscious of ear· thquake safety. Pearson said it is hard to statistically pinpoint potential earth· quake damages because there are so many possible variables. PLU's Phillips said he would not guarantee any campus building's struc· tual integrity in the midst of an earth· quake. Rut both Ph:llip!I and Pearson emphasized that sinc.."e the early 1950s (most PJ.U campus stnlctures have been built since then) earthquake safety has been emphasized in building dE'siglis. Harstad Hall is really the only older

An important goal of the faculty plan is a 15 percent increase to the average professor's salary in addition to year·te>­ year cost of living increases. This added amount, to be implemented by 1990, will their for professors compensate A normal teaching load is 24 credit "losses" during the years of double-digit hours each year. he said, Facully who inflation, said Jungkuntz. Faculty salary increases will also enable PLU to retain excellent faculty and attract competent candidates for open teaching positions. �re we still lIlDCJTf! 01 our Jungkuntz said the majority of the faculty renlain at PLU because they arc purpose' mtIin dedicated to what it represents.

masonry building at PLU, the kind which Pearson said tend ' to be most susceptible to earthquake damage. Yet Pearson quickly added that Harstad, as well as other 1890s Tacoma buildings, such as Old City Hall, have survived big tremors. Phillips said Harstad's brick facing underwent restoration this past summer and that a structual examination is planned for it within the next few years. Pearson said maintenance is a big part of a structure's earthquake safety. Most of PLU's newer buildings are constructed with' a brick veneer facing, but underneath, Phillips said, is rein­ force concrete and steel. If a quake t'ver hit PLU. Phillip� said people should try to stand under door­ way arches and avoid being near win· dows and under overhanging light fixtures. Pearson emphasized thllt one should never run from nor to a building during an elirthqUllke, Phillips said PLU is prepared to han· die an earthquake. Structual im· pro\"ements are always being con· sidered, particularly during remodel· ings, such as the re<:ent one in Ramstad

New ideas instated in food service operations DeUbor

by Krlstl ThomdIke, Projects editor and MIrt.m Bacon, Mast reporter

"The deli bar is a good idea,"said Grant. "It adds another aIternative to the regular meals, " he said. "I'm finding I eat a lot more bread with the new bagel bar," said Suunne Arensmeyer, sophomore. "I never eat any of the other stuff," said Ruth Foster, sophomore. "It's a strange day if I do. Every night I eat a bagel," she said. Tim Fonken, sophomore. said he only saw one thing wrong with the deli bar. Food service is using the fact that you can go to the deli bar as an excuse for serving poor food," he said. Many students said they found that the microwaves complimented the deli bar. "I'd rather just have hot sand· wiches sometimes," said Ken Ryals, junior. "It's nice to have the option:'

Reacting to student requests, PLU's food service recently underwent the most extensive changes in fifteen years. Some of the changes include the addi· tion of meal plan options and a greater variety in food selection. Microwaves, an ice machine, two juice machines, and a ten·foot salad bar are other additions to the UC this year. The MfI3t asked severa] students their opinions on the "new and improved" food service. Reactions were generally favorable, although students were not completely satisfied with the results.

Mealp/4m

The new meaI plan options range from the full meal plan at $730 per semester to three meals a day Monday through Friday for $625 a semester. "The difference in cost doesn't justify "I like the way it's set up. It's not in going for the cheaper plans," said junior the middle of everything the way it used Rod Reed.

room, Sheryl Bennett, food service � checker, said. "Having the entree lines in front of the drinks is utterly stupid," Grant said, "Especialy when most of the glasses are by the lines."

Students have been rerouted to enter the UC in 'the same area as they exit. Students must also present their 10 cards to the checkers in order to be allowed in the dining facility. This has caused miIed feelings among students. " I don't think it's much of an inconve­ nience," said Hanson. " I think it's a better system than what we had before. There are a few flaws, but it's more accurate," said Bennett. "It makes it so the right people are eating, and not those visiting or sneak· ing in the back door, It's fairer to everyone," she said. " I think it {food servicel needs some way so we don't have to have our 10 cards, Kristin Weinman, senior, said. "The number system was a lot better," she said. Using ID cards is the only real way food service can keep track of things, Ryals said. "I haven't lost my ID card yet this year because I carty it with me wherever I go," he said. "I don't like the new line system," Gleason said. "You have to keep swit· ching directions' and everyone gets stuck in front of the drinks," she said. "It seems like everything is a lot more congested now," Arensmeyer said. " I hate havillg to fight for my food" The whole rerouting "looks more con· fusing but it runs faster," Bennett said. "Overall it's a little better than last year," said Ha.naon. The lines were recently shifted away from gl.a.sees and drinks at the north side of the eer-viJ!g area to allow more

Destefano said she felt food service has come a long way n i improving the menu. "Five years ago students used to get a bowl oflettuce for salad," she said. "We're trying to change our m i age. We're working toward a positive m i age here at fOod service by treating the students as customers," Destefano said. "We hope :hey treat food service with the same respect, " she said. "We want to treat the students as customers and hope the students act as if they were in a restaurant," she said. Destefano gave examples of picking up napkins, food messes. and tearing salt and pepper shakers apart. "We are trying to create a homelike atmosphere 88 much 88 possihle," Destefano said. Every month food service is planning a "special event." A costume contest will be in October near Halloween. Thanksgiving will feature a pie eating contest and a tree decorating party will be at Christmas time. Interim will feature a theme dinner every week. "We're getting nothing but favorable comments," said Destefano. Overall, reaction was positive about food service's strives to please the students. They seemed satisfied with the food service meal options and varie­ ty offoods.

H igher costs, budget freezes trap colleges

College Press Service

.

For the second strwght year, officials of Michigan's 15 state colleges and universities faced a di l emma: raise tuition and risk losing state funtling or accept Gov. James Blanchard's offer for II bigger slice of the state budget by freezing their tuition rates. The schools said they needed both more tuition money and more state money to operate. "We have inadequate resources, even with the generous action of the (state) government." Michigan State President John DiBiaggio complained. But MSU and the others finally accepted the offer last week, rolling bac� planned tuition hikes of about nine percent. "Some have not completed their moves to rescind the tuition increases," says Tom Scott, Blanchard's deputy press secretary. "But all have indicated they

will."

Students elsewhere won't be that lucky this school year. A College Board report released last week found it will cost students nationwide much more to go to col· lege this fall. Tuition and fees will rise eight percent at private four-year colleges, nine percent at public four·year schools, eight percent at two-year private schools and nine percent at public two-year colleges, the College Board found. Tuition alone will increase an average of about seven percent at all schools, says Jack Cox of the National Associa.tion of College and University Business Of· ficers (NACUBO). "Colleges are playing catch·up from the dOUble-digit inflation periods of the seventies," Cox explains. Administrators say college costs have to keep rising faster than the current n i flation rate to raise faculty salaries and pay for increased operating costs and school nforms.

Catching up means increases of 11.9 percent at Miami, percent by 1986·87 at Big Bend Communi· ty College (WA) and percent at the U. of Washington. Texas tripled its tuition, whi l e Southwest Missouri State's rose 10 percent, Yale's percent and Minot State College's (NO) 15 percent. Though higher education may be the only industry n i America still raising its prices at a rapid rate, some see a slowing.

"The f igures show a slowdown (in the rate of in· crease), and that's a hopeful sign," asserts Bill McNamara of the National Association of Indepen· dent Colleges and Universities. "But the question of cost containment is beginning to bother people." It especially bothers students, who are tired of being "treated like dollar signs" as schools "become more like businesses than learning institutes," says Col· orado State University student Jim DeFede. "All we're good for s i to squeeze as much money out of us as possible." DeFede led a summer protest of a planned tuition hike by distributing to CSU students applications to cheaper schools, writing legis1ators and staging rallies and class boycotts. "We ended up with a percent increase anyway," DeFede says. "Tuition has nearly doubled in the past five years." " They say they need to increase faculty salaries," he adds. "but the best faculty 8T& leaving."

"In the seventies, colleges couldn't raise tuition as much as the inflation r£.te," Cox recalls. "and salaries still aren't where they should be."

Lehigh, South Dakota, Pacific Lutheran, West Georgia College, North Dakota State, Nebraska. Georgia and Penn State. among others, say their tui· tion hikes are to cover needed faculty and benefit increases.

Big schools push students to smal ler col leges College Press Servlca

Enrollment caps and tougher ad· missions requirementS designed to force more fOUT'year public college students into smaller public colleges seem to be falling short of their goals this fall, some observers say. Administrators and lawmakers have been trying to convince students to switch from more popular large. four· year campuses to smaller state schools. In recent years, the popular campuses have had trouble paying for enough facilities and classes for the increasing numbers of students who have enrolled. Smaller four- and two-year campuses. on the other had. have struggled to enroll enough students w pay for facilities they've already built. This fall. some states have raised ad· missions requirements and limited enrollments at the popular schools, figuring shut-out students would enroll at the smaller campuses. Initially, it hasn't wcorked out that way. "The more you put caps and re­ quirements on enrollment, the more eager students are to go w those institu· tions." says Bert Ockerman. of the American Association of College Hegistrars and Admissions Officers iAACRAO). "The plans aren't doomed to failure," he adds. "but they're certainly less than successful. " "People still clamor to "et in o these schools Ockerman explwns.

Controlling attitude decreases student stress

Student stress may reach high College Press Service Students entering school this fall will encounter stresses they've never dealt with before, and will ' probably endure regular "acedemic calendar of stress" periods before they finish college, a new University of Utah study reveals. "Students are away from home. many for the first time, and dealing with pressures and responsibilities they've never had before," explains study co­ author Neal Whitman. a researcher with the university's Department of Family annin . At the same tim('. though. stud('nl.s experience less serious stress because control over their they have lives than their non·student peers in the real world, according to the summary study of over 150 major stress r£'POrts. to how "Stress is directly much control you have over your life," says Whitman.

Sports Iverson . Decisions to be made, a career to be decided by Mike Condardo

Mast sports editor

Most athletes dream of one day making it to the pro­ fessional levels of athletics. For college athletes. the dream becomes even morE' vivid as college is the last stop before making it or not making it. The percentage of athletes playing big·time college sports that make it to the professional ranks is less than five percent. For the smaller colleges like Pacific Lutheran University. the percentages decline even more. But PLU senior Kevin Iverson may break down the statistical barrier and make the dream come true. Iverson has been approached by pro soccer teams. among them the Los Angeles Lazers of the Major In· door Soccer League (MISL]. asking him to play on their clubs. But that means Iverson had a difficult decison to make. Should he leave PLU for the life of the professional sports world and test the .....aters of having a successful career there? Or should he stick it out and graduate next spring with a business degree? Iverson's decision was nota hasty one. " In my sophomore year, I sat out (of PLU soccer] and tried out with the Tacoma Stars and then ....ent . down to LA and worked out with some pro players there," said Iverson. "I could'\'e possibly signed a con· tract with them then, except it wasn't for very much money, so I came back to school to play." But by staying at PLU, that could prevent Iverson from being seen by the professional scouts. '"J "ve been told by the Fe Tacoma coaches that if I stayed at PLU. it's just going to hold me back," he said. "Very few scouts come out and watch a small school like this, and that's rough on me." Along with that aspect of his decision, Iverson also must choose what he will be most happy with. " It's my senior year and I should graduate, but I'm offered a contract and it's a decent contract,"' said Iverson. "But the soccer wages compared to other sports are tremendously low. You're paid a lot if you get S60,000 u year, which is a minimum salary in other sports." " It's just the fact that I have one more year to graduate, but I've been planning on graduating (from college) since I was real little," said Iverson. " I never really gave any thought to (playing pro) socce� until the last couple ofyears." Iverson realizes that by not accepting an offer he is limiting his chances of ever playing pro soccer. But that hasn't effected his decision. "'I figure if I'm good enough now, I can't do anything but get better," he said. "If I just went out there (with a pro team) and got hurt, I'd have nothing. Whereas if I went down there after graduation and got hurt, at least I'd have a diploma tofaU back on.'" Iverson is confident with the dedsion he has made in

Iverson's decIsion wasn't an easy one-lhe world 01 prolessklnal socceror a college dipbna not accepting a contract. but he can't help but think. '"Did I make the right choke?" " It took me a whi l e to make the decision, and I was at the point where either way, I knew I'd regret it someday," he said. "It was a good opportunity and I regret not taking it, but then I'd regret, years from now, not finishing schoo1."' I verson's future plans do not totaUy rule out a soccer career. Currently. he is training with some local pro players who are helping him prepare to play in England or n i Europe. Iverson wants to go to Europe to play because they play outdoor soccer., whereas in the U.S. the outdoor league is almost defunct. exc�pt for a team here and there and the only alternative is indoor soccer. Iverson has set some goals for himself as he finishes up his career as a Lute. Iverson's main goal is "just beat Simon Fraser." The Clansmen beat the Lutes last year n i the district playoffs on what Iverson terms a "nuke call," which gave Simon Fraser a triple­ overtime victory and knocked the Lutes out of the ' playoffs.

As far as how far the Lutes will go in 1985. Iverson's expectations are high. "RealisticaUy, we have a shot at the national tournament, but it is sort of slim because there are better teams, talent·wise than us. like Warner·Pacific and Simon Fraser,"' said Iverson. "Those are the two teams that can keep us from go­ ingm to nationals. '" What about the chance of playing before his hometown fans with the Tacoma Stars? He sat out his sophomore season with the Lutes to try-out with the Stars. Why not? "I would (play for them) with a decent contract,"' said Iverson kiddingly, "Even if it wasn't a decent con­ tract, I'm going to be 21 when I graduate. and I figure I could spend a couple of years on it, just to give it a shot:'

"The girls should feel real good with their performance. They're digging balls and that is something that hasn't been soon III PLU before.

'"She is consistent in her play. and she doesn't muke errors. Dand Hinman is also playing well." She also spotlighted the Lutes bench for their dedication and hard work. "The poople on the ben{'h have had a wonderful attitude," she said. "It's encouraging to know that they·re there." "And they're playing hard in pruc' lice," added Sullivun's assistant coach Carolyn Fuller. The Lutes may not be winning as much as they like, but Sulli\'an notes that they are just on the verb'\! of breaking through that obstacle. . "We're losing the c�ose rallies, she

suid. " but if we can win 1.1 couple gumes of say 16'14, they'lI get the confidence and then they'll know they can do it." Teams around the leab'Ue are also noticing the strong play of the Lutes.

Lutes forced to tie with Willamette; Linfield next byClayton Cowl Mast sports editor Pacific Lutheran University head football coach Frosty Westering was puffmg on his proverbial cigar in the second-half of a Columbia League battle against Willamette with a 26-2 lead, when it blew up in his face. The Bearcats went on a scoring spree in the fourth quarter, !l('oring 24·unanswered ' points in the fo�h period to post a 26-26 deadlock and send the Lutes home in second place in the conference standings. A combination of injury to star­ ting signal-ealler Jeff Yarnell. a total loss of offensive momentum and a driving wind halted the PLU attack in the final frame. Willamette, on the other hand, capitalized on virtually every scor­ ing opportur ity they had n i the final ten minutes of the game. A record-breaking 51-yard field goal by Bearcat Pete Smith with 44 seconds on the clock tied . the game and left the Lutes with their first tie since 1968 when they knotted Lin­ field at 7-7. PLU, ranked No. 4 in last week's NAIA Division II coaches' poll, face No. ranked Linfield (2·0) tomorrow night at Lakewood Stadium with a 7:30 p.m. kickoff. PLU started the game in proven fashion. much in the way the Lutes dispatched Fugat Sound the week before, 54-13. A solid scoring drive n i the first quarter, combi ned with a fine defensive effort gave the Lutes a 19-2 lead at the hall.

The credit was handed out by Ottawa IKansas) University and the class was taught during the summer of 1979 in Sepulveda. California-a class they never attended.

The Bearcats broke' within 10 points at 26·16 after reserve quarterback Tyler Trunbull fired an interception that helped baclrup quarterback of DeLuca Andy Willamette crank up and hit Jeff Jones for a 9-yard scoring strike with just over five minutes left in the contest.

DeLuca went wild in the passing department, connecting on 11 of 20 passingperformance for 103 yards.

Poor field position, an inspired Bearcat defense against the run, and the gusty wind set up a Lee Sherman inter'ception from deep in his own territory that Wayne Epps picked off and sprinted untouched for a 2.f-yard touchdown.

PLU also offers its own scholar­ athlete award each year and the qualifications are pretty stiff to be con' sidered. You must participate for two years in a varsity sport, and have a minimum grade point average of3.30. Last year, 50 athletes qualified for consideration of the award and of those fifty athletes, the GPA came out to an outstanding 3.61. The male scholar· athlete was Mark Helm, while Bobbi Jo Crow received the female schoJar.athlete

eward

Along with those awards, PLU also has many Academic AlI·Americans, so many that space doesn't allow me to honor them. It is important to recognize these a�hletes because the athlete does spend a lot of his or her time on the field, in practice, or traveling. Yet they keep up their studies. How do PLU athletes do as teams? Last year, 12 frosh men's basketball players had an average GPA of 3.62, while the combined cross country :.earn of 30 athletes had a team GPA of 3.35. How about the women's tennis squad. They had an average GPA of 3.16 and the combined swim teams had an average of 3.04. Why all this attention to PLU athletes? Take a look around you n i col· lege sports Sure they hav� their

ef£ort was thwarted as three runn· ing plays and a delay of game penal­ ty netted eight yards.

Craig Mathiasen's punt from the 32 ended up traveling only seven yards from scrimmage, and sfw four plays, Willamette sent out the field goal team. Smith's boot was high and strong and smashed the former Willamette University record of 48 yards set in 1979.

The Lutes roUed up 365 yards of· fensively compared to Willamette's 200 total yards. All-American runn· ing back Mike VinG..ivich ran for on· ly 42 yards afw a 139-yard rushing barrage against UPS.

Mark Helm carried the ball 12 times for 35 yards, while Jud Keirn rambled for 35 yards on seven car­ ries. Steve Welch was the reception specialist for the Lutes with seven grabs for 132 yards. while Keirn had two catches for 13 yards.

Westering was reserved about picking up his lOOth win as a PLU head coach. "It really doesn't mat­ ter how many wins or losses you have out there," he said. "It's just a by.product of doing the best you can every baUgame."

For Linfield, the guys ought to be really motivated to win," he con­ tinued. "It'll be a heclruva game. But in this league, you have to motivated for every game." .

Black college enrollment drops in state, nation by Gerd·Hann. Fosen Mast staff reporter Fewer black students find their way to college today than they did a few years ago. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, this is a nationwide trend, and statistics show the same holds true at PLU, U.S. Census Bureau statistics show that between 1965 and 1983 black enrollment has dropped. In 1976 blacks constituted 34 percent of the nation's total college enrollment. That figure has dropped to 27 percent. A decade ago there were 3.1 percent (l061 blacks attending PLU. The latest stutistics from this fall show that of the toUlI enrollment, only 73 students are black, constituting 1.9 percent of the school's total enrollment. "However. these numbers might not be accurate:' said Joann Jones of the Minority Affairs Office at PLU. "8<Jme students choose not to identify themselves as belonging to a special ethnic group. and this makes it hard for us to tell exactly how many blacks there are here," she said, adding that the st.atistics stiil show the general trend of declining black enrollment, SWtcwide statistics show a drop in black enrollment at both public and private institutions. According to the council for Postsccondary Education, there were 1,418 less blacks attcndillg college in the stale in 1984 than there were n i 1974 " I n the late 60s and early 70s there was a focus on black education:' Jones said. During those years the k>dcrul government launched financial aid pro­ b'TamS for minority students and sup·

ported recruiting, Jones said, In the 80s there have been drastic aid cutbacks and not as much attention is paid to black education any longer, ac· cording to a recent Newsweek article, . "Education in the U.S. right now is in trouble, and black education even more o,·'Jones said. Looking at PLU, in particular, Jones said, "The fir5t reason studf'.nt.5 give me for not wanting to come to PLU i5 that is is too expensive." She added that some of it has to do with the fact that prospective student.5 do not get enough information about their possibilities. "Many blacks do not kn<>w about the finacial aid they possibly could obtain." Jones said. adding that a growing number of student.5 today aren't willing

to put themselves deep in debt by tak: ing out student loans to fillance their edul:ation. She doubt.s the situation will change under the Reagan administration. However. she predicts "the number of blacks in coUege will increase someti me n i the not too distant future." She bases her prediction partly on st.atistics showing the ethnic enrollment trend for Tacoma high schools: the percentage of white students has decreased whi l e that of minority students has increased during the last 10 years. Jones suggested since the university's title refers to the Lutheran church, which is predominantly white, black

(bIatkportionalIOIa! PLU.,rollmtnt) ..,

students might shy away from seekin� enrollment. She adds that "this is pro­ bably because they do not know 8.!lything about what is going on here," The majority of PLU blacks live in the Tacoma area, Jones said that proximity is the major reason why many of them are here. James Van Beek, dean of admissions at PLU. pointed out that the MESA (Math. Engineering, Science Achieve­ menU program PLU has been involved in for the past two yeliTs is designed to recruit minority students from four of Tacoma's public high school5. It is designed to encourage minority students to consider math, engineering. and science for their careeu. Jones 5aid the response to this pro­ gram has been very good. Kevin Moore, a senior. questions whether PLU really wants more blacks to come here. "I know they go out and recruit and all that, but 1 don't think they really make a strong effort:' he said. He suggested that a reason for thi5 might be that the university "might not get the rich, while students to come here [if·there are too many blacks.I The parentS""'1Would perhaps send their kids to other schools, and th�� way PLU would lose a lot of money. Phillis Lane. director of Minority Af· fairs, said that the mpression i she gets from most blacks at PLU is that they feel comfortable in the university en· vironment. "It is a protected environ· ment. and you feel safe here:' she said.

Campus Ministry organizes relief effort by Miriam Bacon Mast staff reporter

PLU students have an opportunity to help victims of the recent earthquakes in Mexico by contributing to a campus· wide clothing drive. The offices of Minority Student Pro­ grams and Campus r-.Hnistry are organizing the relief effort. which con­ tinues until 1\i�sday. "We need usable clothes plus blankets and quilts, " said Joann Jones. student advisor for Minority Stude�t Programs. "We have students here (at PLU) from the area affected by earthquakes. she said. Sylvia Estrlldll is one such student. The PLU senior was bom in, Arteaga, Mexico in the province of Michoacan, just west of Mexico City. Her mother and father grew up in Mexico but moved to the U.s. n i the late 60s with five-year-oid Sylvill and their other children.

"Everybody outside of my immediate family is still in iliexico," said Estrada. So when earthquakes shook Mexico City she experienced fear and IInxicty o\'er the welfare of her relatives. Estrada's uncle. a diplomat living in Mexico City, called soon after the quake to say he was all right. But news from her other reilltivcs in the area was slow incoming. It WIIS two weeks before Estrada had any word from relatives living n i the coastal areas of Mexico. Finally the family was notified thllt no one was hurt and the only damage was done to Estrada's grandmother's house. "She was on her way to Mass when the roof tumbled." she said, "I always kind of felt that everything would be OK I had a lot of faith." Estrada said she was surprised and frustrated that many people at PLU were unaware of what had happened, " it upset me that a lot ofpeople didn't even know there was an earthquake. I would have thought people would know," she said.

But there were those who knew of her ties to Mexico and tried to relieve some of her worry. "I appreciat.e all my friends that have asked about my family. I can study now and I'm thankful that everyone is safe." said Estrada, " I hope people will remember that things lire happening outside of PLU and keep people in their prayers. " Meanwhile, relief efforts continue both at PLU and elsewhere. Campus clothing drive organizers are asking each student to donate one piece of clothing. Donations may be dropped off in the Minority Student Program office or the Campus Ministry office. All donations be picked up by the Salvation Army and shipped to where they are needed.

Which college is best for you?

An estimllted 500 high school students swarmed the campus when PLU hosted its annual college con­ ferenceday Monday morning. The students. mostly seniors from eight area high schools. had the oppor­ tunity to meet representatives from 26 colleges across the state. The conference is the first n i a two­ month series hOlited at a number of col· leges statewide. It was sponsored by the Washington Conference on Iiigh School/College Rela· tions, an organization of aU Washington colleges. "Throughout the slate they have regularly scheduled conferences," said David Gunovich. assistant Dean of Ad· missions at PLU. allowing students in the area tomeet college representatives. Wendy Manning, a senior at Rogers High School. saw presentations by UPS, Wester Washington University, and PLU. "I don't know much about colleges," she said. " so I'mjusl tf}'ing to fmd out anything." She said she is locking for a college with a tennis team and is planning to study business and recreation management. Another Rogers student, Lisa Williams. said the conference " helped a lot" in finding out what different schools had to offer. Williams said she wants to study theater. Through the conference. she said she discovered that the Cornish In·

stitute " has a lot to offer of what I'm in· tere in." Her ne:r.t step, she said. " is togo to my counselor and get more information." Gunovich said PLU hosts the con­ ferences both because it is near a number of high scnoois, and because it may help recruit students for the university. "I can't say for sure it gets any students. but it is nice to have the university sponsor the event," Gunovich said. " It does give us II chance toshow off. '·

'C' average may be required to receive aid College Press $erllce College students moy have to main· tain a "C" average in the future in order to get financial aid. The grnde requirement is jU5t one change in the aid system Congress is now debating as it tries to pass the Higher Education Ileauthorizntion Act of 1985. The grade meaS'lre. proposed by senators Don Nickies IR-Ok) and Clair· bome Pel! IO·R.I.), has been proposed unsuccessfully before. But chances for its passage may be good this time. sources say, because legislators are looking for relatively painless ways to cut the federal budget and because of recent publicity a\:onut bad students who get financial aid. Currently, students only must be in good standing and make "satisfactory academic progress" toward a degree to receive federal aid. "Unfortunately," Nickles said during a hearing earlier this month, " there have been problems with this open-ended defutition. "Because of this open-ended oppor· tunity for abuse, I believe we need to have a more specific standard" Nickles originally advanced his idea after a 1981 audit found nearly 20 per­ cent of the students who got aid had less than a "C" average. 10 percent bad a cumulative GPA under 1.5. Congress also is debating a bill to let graduate students, who generally face higher education costs that undergrad.s. borrow more federally·guaranteed loan money and pay it hack over a longer period of time. The reauthorization process, which ef­ fectively sets federal higber education policies for the ensuing five years, usual­ ly ' a slew of proposals that law.

'Because of the open-ended opportunity for abuse, I believe we need a more specific definition (of satisfactory academic pI'O' gress fOf students to receive financial aid) .

during these congressional revIew sessions. The grading bill would put aid reci­ pients whose grades fall below 2.0 on probation for a term. If the student doesn't improve by the end of the probation period, he or she will be denied federal aid. Administrators would be empowered. however, to extend the probation period for hardship cases. such as extended illness.

The new break for graduate students who want a Guaranteed Student Loan (GSL) program came up during a House subcommittee hearing. Georgetown University law school dean John Kramer. speaking for a coali­ tion of law school associations, said grad students needed the break. "Over time, middJe class students in particular are just not going to be able to afford a graduate education." Kramer

PLU students and financial aid: 'No problem here' says Hendricks

by Katherine Hedland

Mast staH reporter

Approximately 70 percent of PLU's students receive fIll8.lcl iaJ cid from the university. But n i order to continue receiving that aid, there are reo quinments they must meet. The student catalog outlines these rules as Academic Requirements and Satisfactory Progress. It states that students must remain in "good stan­ ding", while completing at least 24 credits during the course of a year. If their GPA is unsatisfactory, they will be put on academic probation. This does not mean their financial aid will stop, but they will be put on Finan­ cia! Aid Probation. If a student remains on probation for two consecutive, or three total semesters, they will no longer be eligible for aid.

Moroo\'cr, unless debt repayment lire changed, many l,"I"aduate students will feel obligated to take high· paying johs after they get their degree. instelld of going into teaching or com· munity work. Kramer predicts. Kramer's plan would let graduate students borrow more than they cur' rently can. and. if they borrow more than SIS.OOO. repay it over iO to 20 years. E"tended repayment periods current· Iy are made at the discretion of the len· ding agency. policies

"There is n o regular problem here. Besides, it's too expensive to go to school here and be flunking out," Perry said. Perry does not foresee any changes in t.he present requirementa as there is no need for change at PLU. Albert Perry, Director of Financial Aid, explained that as long as the Registrars office allOW8 students to stay in school in good standing, they will receive financial aid. Perry stated that it is uncommon for his office to have pfO' blems with students on probation.. There are currently only a few students in that situation. but tbey have no major problems. Perry said students at community col· leges and others on differtmt levels than PLU add to the large numbers of students with low IU8des.

In part because the plan calls for graduate students to pay the interest on the loans beginning with the 10th year after graduation, Kramer calculates that the changes will save the govern· ment between 1200 and $SOO million a year. Students would assume the cost, but Kramer thinks they ultimately should be making enough to keep the payments from being too much of a burden. Current law allows the administration to adjust loan limits, but Kramer says recent law schools' requests for ad· justments have been rejected.

Although Kramer's proposals were only for graduate students, he says they could be just as easily applied to all students. In fact, the American Council of Education, the most prominent higher education lobbying group, wants to in· ouse loan limits to $3,000 from $2,500 for fre8hmaen and sophomores, and to SS,OOO from $5,000 for graduate students. As yet, Reagan administration of· ficials have not commented publicly on either the grade requirement or the grad students differential proposals. Education Secretary William Bennett is expected to unveil his own proposals for the reauthorization of higher educa· tion laws later this year.

Arts

M usicians seek place to cal l own Plan altered to lower cost by Jenna Abrahamson Mast re porte r

Firs t of two parts

School of the Arts administrators are still trying to fund and build a new arts facility at PLU - the same facility that has been on the drawing board since

1983.

Construction of the building has been hindered due to lack of funding. Univer­ sity Development personnel are actively pUrsuing funding from PLU alumni and friends of the university, said Music Department Chair David Robbins.

And for the time being, plans for a new theater facility have been put on the backbumer.

Howevf'l", the Dian Foundation did not approve the request. Robbins said the corporation ''was not interested in fun­ dinp- a project in the Northwest region."

"We are optimistic that the alumni and friends of PLU will be sufficiently generous to contribute cash and pledges so that construction can begin no later than.fall I987," said Moe.

"Ea.stvold was created as a multi­ purpose facility," he continued, "and it doesn't really work well for anything."

Next Friday's Mast will present part two 01 this story detailing �hy students, faculty, and staff believe a new music building Is needed.

In the process, the plan for a visual arts center has been abandoned. Ingram Hall s i currently being renovated to ac· commodate the art department.

Now funds are being soughtonly for a new music building. Richard Moe, Dean of Fine Arts at PLU, said the music section was the greatest part of the plan eJ[pense-wise, so it "seemed the most fundable." He added that "the pressure of student needs for practice rooms and teaching studios" was also a consideration. The design for the building, by ar' chitect Ralph Johnson, won several prizes, and was submitted to the Dlan Foundation for funding consideration.

Campus to host fol k dancers

S i lver b e l l s r i n g i n g e a r l y

The u,niversity's original plan, ftnlt proposed in January of 1981, was to con­ struct an entire arts center to satisfy the needs of a growing arts program. The expense of such a facility has caused the plan to be broken down into three smaller buildings.

Traditional folk dances of Nicaragua will be performed at 7 p.m. Sunday in the UC by members of an award· winning troupe, Grupo Flor de Sacuanjoche. Members of the group are 14 to 20 years of age and study folk dance, music, and other arts at Nicaragus's Ns· tional Sd:.ool of Dance. Admission is $2 for students and senior citizens and $4 for the general public. Another perfonnance is schedul· ed for tomorrow at 8 p.m. n i Seattle University's Pigott Auditorium.

has

Despite tbi.s set-back. Moe believes President Rieke s i still strongly commit· ted to the construction of the new facility. "The music building is the number one priority for the university to build," said Moe.

i n Taco m a Dome fest i va l II may not be Halloween yet but al1la merchants and craUamen ara already getting reedy for Chrlatmas. The Tacome Dome will be the alte of one of the largest holiday food and gilt festivals on Oct. 23 to 27_ The main arena will be crowded with Christmas crafts and marchandlse before most retail stores have put up Ihls seasons decorallons.

Many of the Items al1l only anllable at craft festivals and the artists trtlval to Tacoma sometime. Just once a year. Everything from Chrlstma. tree decorations to children's toys to holl· day SWHtS will be for sale. Admission Is 54 for sdults, $3 for seniors and those 12 to 17 years old, and children under 11 ere admitted free.

So, if current plans are reallz.ed, the building may be finished by PLU's centennial - in 1990.

Museum shows Northwest art Works by Northwest artist Kenneth Callahan are cuttently on display at the Tacoma Art Museum, Pacific Avenue and 12th Street in downtown Tacoma. The show will continue through Nov. 30. Callahan was curator of the Seattle Art Museum for 20 years and this new exhibit of his work is in honor of his BOth birthday. The artist'llI paintings and drawings relfect the grandeur and violence of the landscape of the Northwest.

Student input needed by Movies CommiHee by Susan Eury Mast stall reporter

The ASPLU Movies Committee wanLs to make your day. Two fdms featwing Clint Eastwood as Dirty Harry will be screened tomor­ row night in the CK.. Admission is 11.50. "The Gauntlet", scheduled for 7 p.m., and "Sudden Impact", showing at 9 p.m., portray Eastwood's character 88 a renegade police detective with • huge .367<aliber mapwn pistol. "Hany" tracks and captures criminal5 - usually walking a thin line between Iega] p� cedurtl and vigilante justice. . TolDOTrOw's presentation is part of the trend that Movies Committee Chair­ man Matt Misterek hopes to continue. Miaterek wants to feature more popular films this year than were shown in 1984·86. The committee will move away from movies like "Diva" and "The Secret Policeman's Other Ball" in favor of boll office successes. Two other fllms have been reserved for Halloween night and will be shown n i the UC during ASPLU's Spooktacular, a celebration featuring movies. dancing and food. "Terror ", described by Misterek as a "s1asher movie", and "Death Race 2000" will be screened. Ad· mission will be $1.

Train

i clude Other possible upcoming films n "Silverado" and "St. Elmo's Fire" Each cost about $700 to rent. The committee can afford these more upensive rentals because Misterek has been able to work out a "package deal" with the movie rental agent. If five or aUr; moviea are rented from the same !Ie!"­ vice: aaid Misterek, then the price may be decreased by as much 88 11,500. Tbe committee received 14,500 this year to acquire moviea. While Mi8t.ere.k does not ezpect to make a profit, any ex­ t� funds at the end of the year will be used to rent a major second·run feature. He I18id it may be possible to show "B.werly Hills Cop" if ticket sales re­ main good. MisteTek was surprised that the com­ mittee was able to break even on last month's showing of "The Kar1Ite Kid". The committees problems now are not economic, but democratic. Misterek said not enough people are providing input about what fUms should be shown. "I don't want this to be a dictator­ ship," he said. " we need people to show up and say this is what I want to see." Misterek said any student may voice an opinion without being obligated to join the committee. Those interested in providing input should watch for movies committee meeting notices n i the cam­ pus bulletin.

by Susan Eury Mast staff reporter

The weather outside may be br�k but the Motown sound will take the chill off the Chris Knutzen Hall tonight with a hot mill of rock 'n' roll, rhythm. and blues and Top 40 music. The bearer of aU these musical tidings is Seattle's premiere blues vocalist Sam Smith. Raised in Seattle. Smith graduated from Roosevelt High School and receiv­ ed his early musical training in church. His music retains that gospel feeling provided by his Baptist rooLs and hie past membership in the Total ElI­ perience Choir. Although Smith's material is com' pletely secular, he sings with the joyous enthusiasm inherited from gospel music. The 26·year-old singer has appeared ex­ tensively at Seattle clubs and he per­ formed at this year's Bumoorshoot Arts Festival at the Seattle Center during Labor Day Weekend. Smith appeals to (I varieLy of musical LDSt.cS and he incorporates several styles in his performances. Everything from the Carpenter's "Close to You" to Mar· vin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" is fair game for this versatile performer.

Tonight's performance is billed as a dance-concert and students are invited to move along with the music.. Smith. himself, sometimes uses a few dance steps to liven up the stage. Appearing with the Evolution, a sil:· member group, Smith has been con­ sistently trying to hreak down stereotypes placed on him as a black performer. In a recent interview with The Rocket Smith said he approaches music with an appreciation for all styles and he hopes people will not try to eatagorize him. Smith said he hopes to make a dif­ ference with his music. Drawing on his gospel background, he war;Ls to get a certain feelins across to his audience. "It's the message in the song, but even more. it's the spirit. that gospel thing," he told Th. Roeht, "Attention is energy - if you put enough attention and energy into a thing, you'll definitely get a reaction." Tonight's concert should surely evoke a reaction from the PLU community.

Viewpoints

Editorial Declining black college enrollment is no less a problem at PLU as it is anywhere else statewide or nationally. Unless federal college aid programs make more grants available, our universities will continue to fill their campuses with less minorities. Over the last decade the federal government has reduced the number of grants ava;lable to college students, Although Na­ tional Direct Student Loans and Guaranteed Student Loans are still widely available, many students and would·be students are often hesitant to put themselves as much as $1 4,000 in debt to finance their education. a recent survey shows that a continuing reliance on loans over grants for the last decade, along with skyrocketing tuition rates have forced students to borrow more money in recents than did students of a decade ago. In the early 1970s, nearly two·thirds of all student aid money was awarded in direct, non-repayable grants to students. Today, nearly two-thirds of all aid money is loaned. This trend in the federal government's financial aid structure is directly parallel to the decline in black college enrollment at the state and national level. Unfortunately, the black population is being pinched the . hardest by the diminishing'avai lability of grants,

Letters Yuppie capitalism accomplishes more than political protest

Wealth and Power , then what? by Bennett Sondker

To the editor

I'm afraid that the slogan " become Ci­ ty Hall" isju9t a catch-phrase used to give the impression that Rubin is ad­ vocating something besides political apathy. He does not seem to actually mean that y�u should " become City Hall" for any reason besides gaining prestige and the opportunity for greater self-indulgence. In reality, his message appears to be simply: practice self·indulgence while patting yourself on the back for doing the most you can (in Rubin's eyes) to help your neighbor and the world. It is ironic that Rubin wasC8st as a realist and Hoffman as an idealist, for Rubin recommends having complete faith that an economic model will solve l e you the world's problems for you whi practice self·indulgence. Hoffman ad­ vocates being skeptical of every economic model, and producing change through hard work using legal, proven methods that he has used effectively in recent years.

Jerry Rubin, in his debate with Abbie Hoffman, made a very appealing case. The idea of millions of us from the baby-boom generation amassing wealth and power and becoming City Hall las opposed to continuously fighting City Hall) sounds very e.citing. It sounded

OPINION like he had a very definite plan of action, and I wanted to learn more. I asked him (after the debate ended); " Attempting to change the status quo could easily conflict with acquiring power. Once you've 'become City Hall' it could jeopardize your position. How much wealth and power should you amass? When should you riskjeopardiz· ing your power and begin devoting money and energy to social problems?" Rubin answered that you never need to, for the change will come from within the economic system.

Anyone who listened intently to what Abbie Hoffman said last Tuesday would think that uruess students let their hair grow long, wear fatigues and Berkenstocks. and spend their time picketing political conventions, they are i our political system or con' not active n cerned about public justice. When will "yippies" grow up and learn that to get what they want, they must take active, positive roles in socie­ ty, and stop crying on street comers. This is the essence of conservative change, and it is preferable and more ef· ficient than the liberal idea of radical abandonment? If students would be students and stop being demonstrators, if they would study history, political science, and economics and attempt to understand

He grew up with Jerry Rubin at a time when the general public was under the opinion that the establishment in this nation was out of its mind. As feelings have changed and times have moderated, Ab­ bie Hoffman has been passed by. These days students realize that to get what they want they must take an i society.

"A moderate amount of stress makes you alert," Judy Wagonfeld. self care-wellness coordinator from the health center, said, " It gives you a great energy spun," she said.

ASPLU staff back to nonnal operations by Kathy Lawrence Mast staff reporter ASPLU President Laurie Seine and ASPLU Vice President Jennifer Hub­ barel are glad PLU's student govern­ ment is more than just a two-woman show anymore. After administering the four ASPLU executive officer positions by themselves due to the resignations of Kevin Beggs Hnd Ty Dckofsky. the two are relieved that Ann Christiansen and Lynette Shaw will be laking over the positions of programs director and comptroller. Hubbard said prior to the elections she and Soine joked about their situa· tion, saying it was preparing them for the crises of life. Soine added that if they can handle running ASPLU by themselves, they can handle anytrung. Seine said that not only did !he and Hubbard learn a great deal. but they also discovered how much work it takes to run ASPLU. She said they both spent many \lIte nights and eight·hour days in the ASPLU office. Despite all the work, Soine said that their situation WIl9 not a negative ex· perience. She said the fact that there were four candidates for program direc· tor and two for comptroller shows ASPLU is ··not dying:' She added that through support and hard work, the senate helped ASPLU through its crisis. Christiansen, elected program direc· tor Sept. 25, sold that although she had to jump right into the responsibilities of her position, the positive attitudes of Hubbard and Soine made her transition much easier.

"I want to get a system n i here that is continuously working," she said. Hubbard said that ASPLU's first and

most m i portant task is to become ad· justed to their roles. She said that the of· ficers have to learn to work as both in· dividuals.and team members. Then, Hubbard. said, ASPLU needs to follow the path of pursuing the best rela· tions with the student body and supply­ ing PLU with programs. Soine sold that ASPLU is working on earning respect from both the ad· ministration and the student body. She added that respect is something which needs to be earned and therefore cannot be accomplished in one senate term. "Students have to fight extra hard for respect,·· she said. Shaw said that improving ASPLU·s image is a goal that everyone in ASPLU shares. She added that with such a positive group of student leaders, she foresees PLU's opinion of ASPLU changing in the near future. ., ( trunk ASPLU has a lot to offer:· Shaw said, " We·redoing good trungs.··

Choosing a long GlStance company is a lot like choosing a roommate.

It's beHer to know what they're like beforeyou move in.

Living together with someone for the first time can be an "educational" experience. And living with a long distance company isn't any different. Because some companies may not give you all the services you're used to getting from AT&T . For instance, with some companies you have to spend a certain amount before you qualify for their special volume discounts. With some others, voice quality may vary. But when you choose AT&T there won't be any surprises when you move in. You'll get the

same high-quality, trouble-free service you're used to. With calls that sound as close as next door. Guaranteed 60% and 40% discounts off our Day Rate-so you can talk during the times you can relax. Immediate credit for wrong numbers. Operator assistance and collect calling. So when you're asked to choose a long dis­ tance company, choose AThT Because whether you're into Mozart or metal, quality is the one thing everyone can agree on. Reach out and touch someone�

Sports Women booters grab first district victory by Fred Filch Mast reporter

The PLU womens soccer team booted their overall rocord to 7'-1 Wednesday with a 6·2 win over Evergreen State in their first district victory of the season. Freshman Sonya Brandt continued on her scoring spree with four goals. Brandt's season total is now at 15. Stacy Waterworth and Sandy McKay added two other goals. It was the Lute! third consecutive win. A pair of wins over the weekend gave the Lutes sole posession of first place in the NCIC with a 4-0 crmference record. Friday PLU Loppled Lewis and Clark 10-1 in what head coach Colleen Hacker called the best team effort of the ge8SOn. The Lutes scored goals on 10 of 29 shots. Brandt, Waterworth. and Beth Louthain each had three goals. "It was a tota1 team effort," said Hacker. "The intensity and passing were outstanding." Hacker made five position changes for the game. Freshman Gail Steru:el started as goalkeeper, which allowed Hacker to move the Lutes staring goalie Kathleen Ryan to right wing. Ryan con· tributed to the Lutes cause with a goal and an assist. The following day, the Lutes beat Willamette 2'(). Both of the Lutes scores were within the first 20 minutes of play. Brandt and Waterworth picked up goals forPLU. "It was a real unusual game," said Hacker. "The passing and ball control were real atrong, but we had trouble keeping our intensity throughout the game." The victory was a wstly one for the . Lutes as PLU forward Louthain suf· fered a knee njury. i "It's doubtful that she'll be back for the season," said Hacker. It came at a time when our for· wards never looked better.

The following day, the Lutes dropped a four·gamer to Linfield, 15·9,7·15, 15·9, and 15·12. but the Lutes salvaged a match out of the four·game weekend set by beating Willamet.te 7·15, 15·12, 15·13, and 15·10.

"We still have to work on the mental game. " "Vivian Hill was consistent all weekend. She put the ball down and had a lot of kills," said Sullivan. . , F'reshman Janet Holm is emerging as our most consistent player. her passing was on target seventy percent of the time last week:' The Lutes are on the road tonight playing Pacific at 7 p.m. They return homll Monday to play Seattle Universi· ty at 7:30 p.m. in Memorial Gym, and then play Lewis and Clark Wednesday at 7:30 p.m.

Although the skirmish was only II cross·divisionlll gnme in the Columbia Lca,,:ue standings, the conte�t meunt much more. PLU snapped the current single-longest NAtA win string n i the country at 1 5 games. The Lutes also returned the favor of a 24·10 loss last season at McMinnville, The Lutes climbed in this week's poll after knocking off Linfield, previously No. 2 in the nation, Since post·season playoffs are deter· mined by being one of the top eight teams in the poll at the end of the season, the victory for the Lutes was crucial after the 26·26 tie at Willamette the previous week. Turnovers hurt the Lute offense the entire game as drives to the Wildcat 12, 18, and 24·yard lines on three successive drives were cancelled by a fumble or an interception. PLU quarterback Jeff Yarnell con· m�cted on 16 of his 26 passes for 165 yards in the aerial department, but also tossed four interceptions, including: two to Wildcat defensive back Damon Liles. The offense did the job, but the defensc 8hined for PLU. While trying to stop Linfield passingace D8Vid Lindley, stunts and blitzes to the Lutes shut down both the run and the pas8. Linfield collected only 54 yards at halftime, while being halted for a mere 26 yard!! rushing for the game and 211 tow yards. There were an impressive 11 sacks recorded on Lindley for the evening, Mike Jay led the defensive surge for the Lutes, while defensive end!! Jeff ElstoD, Doug Zoutte and Jon and defensive lineman Tim Shannon added he�thy support. After a see-saw first QuarteT, the Lutes got on the scoreboard flJ'st when running back Mike Vindivich stutter· stepped one tac.kler at the line of scrim· mage on a counter and picked his way through the Linfield secondary for a 51·yard touchdown scamper.

Linfield finally got on the board in the final frame after Lindley engineered a 64·yard scoring drive in six plays with a 27·yard swing pass to wide open Scott Stapleton. John Gray's point ofter at· tempt was no good. It looked like the Lutes had things under control with less than two minutes remainig in the contest. but a Vindivieh fumble at the Wildcat 12'yard line gave Linfield one last hope.

Peace Corps volun!eers are people pretty much like you, Peo­ ple wilh commitment and skills who have assessed their lives and decided they wan! 10 be of service to others in a troubled world, The problems our volunteers deal with overseas aren't new. Such as the cycle of poverty Ihat traps one generation after another because they're too busy holding on to get ahead. The debilitating effects of malnulrition, disease, and inade­ quate shelter. Education and skills that are lacking, and the means to get them too. Your college training qualifies you to handle more of these prob-­ lems than you might think. Suc� as teaching nutrition and health prac­ tices; designing and building bridges and irrigation systems; working on reforestation and fisheries pro-

grams; in!roducing better agricul­ tural techniques; advising small businesses and establishing coopera­ tives; or teaching math and science · at the secondary level. The number of jobs to do is ncarly as great as the number of vol· unteers who have served since 1961 : Nearly 90,000. More volunteers are being chosen now for two-year assignments beginning in the next 3-12 months in Africa, Asia, lalin Amcrica, and the Pacific.

Yes baseball fans, it's that time again. The playoffs. Where every college fan's fancy is to make it home from that 11-11:50 class to catch the opening pitch of the 12-noon playoff game. To let that assignment that's do tomorrow sit there on th(! desk until 15 minutes before class is to begin. The interesting twist to thi9 year's i major playoffs is for the first time n league baseball, a team from Canada. namingly the Toronto Blue Jays, have made the breakthrough moving the playoffs outside the United States. Along with the "Star Spangle<:i Banner" also comes "Oh, Canada," the Canadian national anthem. But don't stop there. Many other in­ teresting twists come into play. For ex­ all the ample, if the Toronto should way and win the World Series, who calls the team to congratulate them first: President Ronald Reagan or Canadian Prime Minister Brian Mulroney? How about the propect of a freeway series between the Kansas City Royals and the St. Louis Cardinals? Or a batUe of the birds (Cardinals and Blue Jaysl. Before the New York Mets and Yankees were knocked out. we had the possibility of a subway series. And before the California Angels were knocked out. is looked like we could have aD 1-5 series with the Angels and the Los Angeles Dodgers. Some people complain that it is too Toronto with cold to have the playoffs the snow and all. But if those fair­ weather fans take a good. look at the map. Toronto is only 100 miles to the north of Detroit Tigers, who had the World Series in their park last year: Detroit. Cleveland, Milwaukee, and Toronto are all anout the same come fall and winter. What about those people who want a baseball team in Denver. Colorado.? At last look. Denver had to cover their field at Mile High Stadium from the notorious white powder for their football game with tha Dolphins. Personally, I like the thoullht of

go

i n

Toronto in the playoffs. People- going around saying, "So "hat do ya' think of the Jays chances, eh? Those Cardinals off. eh! look pretty tough?" "Oh, The World Series will be won by the team from the Great White North. Beauty." l Canadian crowds are much ike England soccer crowds. They bring huge flags out to the games and wave them. and they do simple chants like "Go. Jays. Go" or simply "Blue Jays. Blue Jays." The Canadian fan also has a sarcastic sense of humor. When the pennat races . were heating up. Toronto went to New York to play iun Yankee stadium. and while they played "Oh. Canada," the fans from the Big Apple booed. So when the Jays returned to Toronto'a ElI:­ hibition Stadium to play the Yankees. the fans stood and cheered throughout the playing of the Star Spangled Banner. "Eh." That's a funny thing. The Cana­ dian's always want a response to make heard. so they say sure they've everything. "Shall I take out "eh" the trash. eh?" "Shall we take a walk, eh?" But however the playoffs go, it's nice to know that the American pasttime can make some room for its neighbors to the north. Good day, eh? Beauty.

None oi these? ··Welfare: Who Should Be Entitled to Public Help?'·, presented Oct. 10, was the fir�t of three Nlllionlll Issues Forums organized by PLU and the Domeslic Policy Association this year. The DPA was formed to bring citir.ens togelher to discu!!s urgent public issues and share their ideas with local and na' tional policy makers. The format of the forum was unusual bt.'cau5C the audience was directly in, valved in the argument.!. Dr, John Schiller. PLU Professor of Sociology and Social Work. said the idea of the forum was for people to change from "p"rsonlll opinion to educated judge­ ment." He also said the meeting would ··help the public learn the public husiness of general welfare," A OPA article staLed that people tend to have different attitudes toward pr()­ gT!lms such as Social Security, Medicare and t\·ledicaid, programs for children n i school. and unemployment, The DPA hilS categorized these attitudes into three groups. Each involves a decision to which an individual must come. The first attitude holds that the government."We the people . " should guarantee that aU othera have certain basic neccs!!ities of life: health care,

minimum wages. a pension, education, and some housing. These would be pr()­ vided for out of tax money, A second point of \'iew suggests pro­ viding some social benefits to some pe0ple. Public assistance would be avai l able for those who really need it and benefits would be cut for everyone else. Finally. some believe that the welfare state should be trimmed back and the private sector. personal savings plans and charities. should onct' again assume the major role in providing social assistance, The panel consisted of five local per· !IOns from social services or other social organizations. Schiller acted as moderator, helping give information and evidence on the issue of public help, The first apeaker was Luanne Fox­ ford, of Washington Womens' Employ­ ment & Education. Inc.• a program that has operated for four years and has plac­ ed "500 women in jobs and taken them ,. off of welfare, she said. Lyle Quasim. Director of the Mental Health Division of the Department of Social and Health Services for the state of Washington, said, "welfare was a result of the corporate capitalistic system n i our economy," and suggested (people) "deal with the attitude of Social Security and make it a graduated tax."

In Washington State, 62 percent of the general popUlation and 51 percent of black children are in the poverty level. Next year the Social Security grant is expected to be "cut to 52 percent." Howard said. From PLU's Sociology department Diane Davis. who previously researched these issue!!, !laid we need to "focus on scarce fesoUree!I and the necessities of

food, shelter and jobs." She suggested that we stop the benefits to the cor­ porate and wealthy. as well as "digging into our own pockets" in the middle class, Tom Hilyard. acting Director of the Pierce County Human Services Depart­ ment stated, every citizen "deserves or has the right te adequate (ood, shelter. medical care. clothing. and the securities of life, " He said.

Tom Jones. a senior computer science major, has not been happy with the new hours. "I love working on a computer all night long." he said. " Particularly when I'm working on a deadline." He said the new hours do not give computer users nexibility. "When working on computer problems you will sometimes run into problems you don't expect:' he said. " Now if that happcns latedt nightyou're sunk." And being able to get back on the computer the next moming doesn't always help. he said. "especially with closs a t 8 a.m." Bondy said the new hours will encourage better pro�:ramming. ·'There is II feeling in the way programmers work that the:e is an advantage to working more on a yellow pad and less on the terminal,'· he said.

Mast reporter A new student puss n;guiation at PLU has already been alteredalthough it has been in effect only seven weeks. Originally n i troduced in a memo from the Campus Safety office dated Aug. 26, the pass system involvt's " 1111 students requiring after hours access to buildings for the duration of the term tfa1I1, either foremployment or academic reasons." The only exception to this ruleare those students working under con· tinuous supervision of a staff or faculty r: l ember.

ministrotors have decided to make all current passes nulland void II!! of Oct. 31. In addition, no new passes will be issued prior to the 31st. According to a memo from the Direc' tor of Campus Safety. Ron Garrett. datea Oct. 9, University Officers have become concerned that "!;tudent safety as weU as security of our facilities is at risk." In order to tighten security on cam· pus, building passes will require the al>' proval and signature of the appropriate University Officer(President William Rieke, Provost Richard Jungkuntz, Vice Presidents Mary Lou F'enili (Student Life). Luther Bekemeier (De\'clopment). or Perry Hendricks (Finance nnd Opera· tions). New applicntions mu!!t be sub­ mitted by the student's employer or . supervisor.

Garrett said if there is a great need to have a building open. the building hours will probably be extended. MCLone feels that Campus Safety's handling of the pass system was beneficial because the admittance pr!> cu!! waa sped up and fewerprofessors were c:alled at home in the evenings. He said that for the fIrst time a statistically accurate reading of student demand for after,hours building usage was obt.8lined. Campus Safety did not anticipate that student demand would be so great, said McLane. In addition to the 300 posses issued, about 100 other requests for pllSseS were submitlA.od but had not been approved.

One minute vigil recognizes apartheid struggle by Emily Morgan Mast reporter

History professor Jock Bermingham gave a lecture at noon explaining the nature of apartheid and the com­ pJextity of the problem in South Africa.

For one silent minute last Friday mor· ning, college students around the na· tion, including several at PLU, focused on problems f.ther than studies and grades. AttentiG,1 was instead focused on the racist apartheid policies of the South African government. The American Commitee on Africa had designated October 11 9S Campus Anit·Aparthcid Prol.cst Day. and PLU also planned a day of protest activities for students and faculty. The morning chapel service, con­ ducted by University Pastor Ron Tellef· son, focused on injustice in South Africa and �amibia. a neighboring country. Enc Bean, a PLU alumnus, rend a ser· mon given by black Namibian Lutheran pastor. Zephaniah Kameeta. In this sel mono Kameeta described the apartheid problem as a religious one, not a political Is.que.

Robert Hoffman. a junior. said PLU's small size forced people to become the actual "instigators of action." which was more uncomfortable than being a follower among many in a mass movement.

The three cases of chicken pox reported last week may turn into an epidemic on campus. said' Judy Wagonfeld. self core-wellness coordinator of PLU's Health Center. . She said the disease is transferred by respiratory and oral secretions. If a person notices a sore throat, some fatigue. a slight fever. or coughing. the best thing to do. according to Wagonfeld. is to call the office to determine if an t!lt­ amination is necessary. Usually it is a 14 to 16 days for the incubation period from the first exposure until the noticeable rash will occur, mostly affecting the upper b<xiy with little red bumps. A person can not be m i munized against chicken pox, But for people who hllve already had them, it is highly unlikely to get them agotin, noted Wagonfeld. For those who haven't had chicken pox before, Wagonfeld gave some sug�� • e 10 u: a� �m� )!:� t���� :4���� di �;o� ��� � � ; r � "

blowing their nose. Other precautions include covering the mouth when coughing, and using disposable tissues. Also, drinking glasses should not be shared. Students that have chicken pox must find off-campus places to stay or they are sent home when possible, noted Wagonfeld. After five to seven days when the last lesion appears and scabbing has 0c­ curred the student may return to PLU. It is especially dangerous for adults to contract chickeu pox because it can turn into pneumonia. To date, the chicken pox outbreak seems to be confined to the PLU com­ munity and has not affected the gen&ai population of Pierce County. Wogonfeld explained.

PLU Family, Kids Center offers services to low income by Gerd·Hanne Fosen Mast stall reporter PLU's Fami l y and Children's Center was not con!lidered newsworthy to local television stations one year ago. But this week, Dn NBC film crew visited the center to film a television documentary. The center is located at East Campus and consists of four programs that pro­ vide services to people from all age groups in our community. Primarily. the services are offered to low income families in Parkland. Faye Anderson. the representative from the Division of Social Sciences to the Family and Children's Center. said that it is unusual for a university as small os PLU to have a presti!,-lous pro­ gram like this. Bob director Menzel. of CHOICE, Center for Human Organiza· tion in Changing Environments, launch· ed the project four years ago when star· ting a feasabili y study. Unta collected through this study in· dicated that PLU is located in a "'high

risk area," Anderson said, meaning that there is a high number of people in the low n i come category, a high crime rate' and ma.ny single parent families. Growing up n i single parent families, many children are home alone several hours in the afternoon. Helmi Owens, director of the After School Enrichment Program, �ASEP) at East Campus, said about her program that, " It is here primarily for kids from single parents families in Parkland. However. it does not exclude anybody." ASEP is cooperating closely with Franklin Pierce School District. I t offers the children from the Parkland schools a place to come after school and attend ac· tivities under supervision by adults. Owens said the kids get outdoor recreation. they write. draw, play and make things PLU students majoring in education are directly involved with the program. Owens pointed out that it is a great opportunity for the students to see a real life situation. Katrina Gilmer, a senior working in the program. said,"1 reallyke il it. I have

ASPLU ordered to repay $6,280 debt by Kathy Lawrence Mast sta ll reporter Although university organizations rarely forl;ed to repay budget overexpenditures, ASPLU mus� repay its 56.280 debt so it can learn from its mistakes. says Vice Presi· dent of Student Life Mary Lou Fenili. At their Sept. 26 meeting. Senators Trent Ling and Lynette Shuw (now ASPLU comptroller) said they believ· ed the university was deviating from its policy by cutting the overexpen· diture from this year's budget. They said their understanding of university policy was that posit�\'e and negative budgets wiped each other out at the end of the fiscal year. Shaw and Ling said if their understanding was correct. t.he senate should find out why the}" were being dealt with differently. Both made a plea to the senate to \..able the issue of passing u budget until the following meeting in order to allow them enough time to research the issue. The senate then vot.cd to hold off passing the budget until the following week. "I'd rather table the budget until we can answer these questions," Shaw said. During their next meeting, held Oct. 3, Ling and Shaw told the senate what they had found out. They said that Perry Hendricks. vice president of Finance and Opera· tions, told them that it was not university policy to carry over debts, except under very rare circumstances. Ling said they also approa.ched Fenili. He said Fenili, who oversees ASPLU's budget. told them that car· are

rying over their debt was necessary because they nceded to learn from their mistakes. After seeing Fenili. Ling said they spoke to President Rieke who sug· gested that the senate pass a budget of 5135,720 in which the 56,280 debt was subtracted. Ling said Rieke add· ed the provision that if ASPLU nced· ed money in the future for an impor' tant project. he would consider help­ ing them out. "He didn't make any promises." Ling said. "nut. I think we came away with a good feeling." After Ling and Shaw presented their findings to the senate, the group voted to aCl;ept Rieke's sug· gestion. Ling soid that by question· ing the budget and actu.ally resear· ching the polic)', the senate made its point that it did not want to Ue treated u!lfairly. Fenili told the MQlJt that it is not atypica1 for her as a budget head to request repayment of a debt. She added thlit she did not think it was atypical for the rest of the universit.y either. "I had to cover their overexpen· diture and I just wanted to be reim· bursed." she said. Hendricks, on the other hand. said he was not sure why Fenili requested ASPLU to repay their overexpen· diture. He said general policy is that debts are wiped out in May at the end of the fiscal year. Technically, he said ASPLU's debt has alteady been paid. If a gross overexpenditure occurs. Hendricks said it is sometimes car· ried over as a disciplinary nction. But, he said, sucr. an action hns only occured a few times in the 12 years he has been at PLU.

groups. McDougall also added that students doing work study at the center helps lowering the costs. The Marriage and Family Counseling Center serves families and individuals in the community, according to Dr. Charles York, director of the program. The center is the clinic of the PLU master's program in marriage and fami· ly therapy, and the counselors are students in this program. There is also a program for seniors called,"Second Wind." T:lis provides an opportunity for seniors to take classes in nutrition, computers, Dnd physical ex· ercise for a very inexpensive price.

CSO offers more jobs with additional funding by Katherine Hedland Mast reporter PLU's Career Services Ortice has severa1 off-campus job openings available through its state work study prog!'am. Because state funding was greatly increased for the program this year, it is possible to supply more work study students with n i teresting and . .....ell·paying jobs.

Beth Ahlstrom, Assistant to the Oirector of Career Services, said employers who hire students to work for them must follow four requirements. First of all, the position must be either I;arcer or academically related to Lhe stu· dent. Employers must pay salaries com· pDrable to what anyone else would receive. and student employees must be in nddition lO. not n i place of. their regular staff. Also, jobs cannot be politically or

religiously affiliated. These requirements make it possible for students to be hired by companies in their fields and receive much higher wages than if they worked on campus. Because the employers are reimbursed by the state for two-thirds of the salary they pay. the program appeals to them. There are currently 76 contracted employers, and over 100 students work· ing in jobs through CSO. But there are stiU many jobs that need to be filled. Some available positions include an of· Hce assistant n i a social services agency for 55.90 per hour. an accounting assis· tant that pays 56.49 hourly, and some tutorial positions in local sl;hools for 55.65 an hour. �\any other positions arc listed in the office. Ahlstrom encourages anyone in· terested in these [lOsiLions to contact hcr office. located in Ramstad, Room I l l .

Captain Bluntschll (Jay Craig) explains to a reticent Raina (.Anna laurls)what soldiering Is like In real llle.

PLU production satirizes the glory of battle by Susan Eury

Mast slatl reporter

Arms that kill and arms that caress are both featured in the PLU Theatre Department's current production, George Bernard Shaw's satire, "Arms and the Man." This tnree .act play, set one hundred years ago in Bulgaria, might. have been difficult for a lesso(!"peril'nced group of actors to realistically present, But PLU's accomplished thespians have once again provided a solid. though not spectacular, performance. Leading the troupe is freshman Theater major Anna Lauris who por· trays the melodramatic young woman. Raina. Compared to such proven PLU talents as Jacqueline Bonneau and Ja,y Craig. her performance lacks the range of e�on-ttrar- tt1rtWoJveterans bring to their roles · bULber character re­ quires much less.

Review It is Craig, as Captain Blunt.s<:hli, who delivers Shaw's message. As a fugitive Serbian soldier taking refuge n i Raina·s bedroom, he excuses his cowardice and. at the same time, analyzes the history of warfare, by explaining, "It is our duty to live as long as we can." Shaw's sarcasm seeps through most of the dialogue as he compares the clean romance of batt.le with the messy reali· ty. His characters thrill to the glory of war but cover their ears to drown out the gunfire. Bonneau portrays Raina's mother with her usual care to detail. including expressive face and body movements. Depicting a woman in her fifties is no easy task for any younger actress, but Bonneau is able to rely more on iitter· pretation of the character and less on make up to achieve the desired effect. Guest director Richard Edwards. cur· rently the Acting Artistic Director for the Empty Space Theatre n i Seattle, keeps the actors moving throughout the play to compensate for Shaw's typicaUy wordy ialogue. He is aided n i Act 2

when the action and humor increases with the entrance of Raina's father, played by Robert Gahs'gan, and her fiance Sergius. portrayed by Jonathan Greenman. Shaw uses these characters to entrench his self-effacing humor into the play and the actors respond with perfect complianc;!, Greenman's interpretation, cspeciaUy, captures the arrogance of a young soldier. Gahagan. like Bonneau, must realisticaUy portray a much older per' son. He docs so, although not quite so adeptly as his female counterpart, Sparse settings testify to the restraints which PLU Theatre produc­ tions are forced to comply.

Unfortunately, scene changes create more action than most of the production itself:- � - --".. . .. are intermissions minute Ten

necessary between acts to eel the stage and !ohey must be done in full view of the audience seated onstage. This in itself would not be too troublesome if scene flats did not faU over and minor characters did not appear between scenes to help the crew.

New band director expands into new areas by Jenna Abrahamlon Masl reporter

The University Wind Ensemble is venturing into areas not often traveled by traditional bands. This eJ:cureion from the ordinary has been caused by Robert Ponto, PLU's new bind director. Ponto said he wants to encollrage the wind ensemble and their audience to eJ:. perience aU forms available to this medium. He said he wanLs to gradually e:r.pand the music program to better suit the variety of students wilIhing to play Ponto said there are many unique "cerebraJ·type Waf"" available to the speciaJ. instrumentation of • wind ensemble that he will utilize in his

He believes people tend to take a short glance at what's going on around them. Ponto compared music to compositions of art. He said segments of a picture don't give a view of the entire work. "The best therapy ia to listen," Ponto

oaid.

With each composition on a program, he said he plans to discuss what can be heard Often. Sousa marches or other overplayed pieces are ex.pect.ed. Ponto said he wants people to know the pas­ sion created. in each of his varied selections.

Included on the ensemble'e Tuesday ni�ht concert are full wind works, such as Fanfcue by Paul DuC&.S, 88 well as familiar band pieces. Also featured are separate compositions for the wood· winds and brass. The biggest strength of the entire group s i their energy and awareness of the music, said band member Steve Hagen. "The cohesiveness is stiP a little shaky this early in the year." Ponto said he selectively chbse to come to PLU because "it rang absoluteIy right." He came here after completing graduate school at the University of

Alcohol and drugproblems

Students trained to advise peers on drinking by Lance Kuykendall

Mast reporter

PLU atudent.s may soon be bette!' in· formed about alcohol and drug problems. Oan Coffey. director of the Health Center. said five students have been .selected to form a committee to help others with such problems. 'i'he students were chogen because they are considered approachable and comfor· table with helping others.

'Their role Is to act as Information and resourae people. not 8S counselor,'

-Dan Coffey, dIrector of the Health C�nter

"Their role is to act as information and resource people," Coffey said, "not as counselor." He said their training would allow them to direct atudents who need infor­ mation or help. Joe WoUe, SUpervUlor of family aft«'­ care at the Puget Sound Alcoholiam Center, led an aD-<iay workshop for the students Oct. 12. The workshop dealt with alcohol's effects on the body, the symptoms and progression of alcoholism, and the waya family and friends of alcoholics suppn-t and protect alcoholics from the consequences of their problem. Wolfe also instructed the group in in· tervention. which he dellCribed as "the process of motivating chemically depen' dant people into treatment," Finally, he directed thegroup through rol�playing and intervention situation. Wolfe said he haa 1 5 yeara uperience " in the field of alcohol and chemical dependence," snd speciamea n i the treatment of families of alcoholics.

He said he has taught similar workahops at the Universityof Alaska. Seattle University and Fort Steilacoom Community ColJege. By the end ofthe workshop, be said. the five students would hopefully be able toidentify the &igm and aymptoms of the diseases, 1ln81VeS' student concerns about drinking 'With 90me kind ofinfor­ mation, participate 1Vith inter"ventiona, and "promote others to do eomething about drinking and drug taking." ASPLU President Laurie Saine, one of the 8tUdents wbo attended the workshop, said it was "very worthwhile, very informative," "I don't drink and wasn't really aware of the prob-Iem of alc:obolisru," SoiDe said. " Programs such as this help people be aware and DOt immune to this," T. Bud McKinley, who alao attended the workshop, said the program was in· tere8ting, but felt Wolfe �t too much time talking about the extremes of alcoholism and getting alcoholics to ab­ eolutely refenn. "He should have addressed individual perSOrnll ' dependency and why people our age drink," she said. It was important for people toknow e involved with the pro­ that all the peopl graiQ. are not abStinent. she said. " I drink, and smoke pot sometimes, and I'm responsible when I do."

But ahe thinks there is a need. " A Jot ofpeople won't handle drinking responsibly. It's important they can have a peer to go to." ahe said. Coffey said the Heatth Center will be evaluaUng the training and finding ways to improve it.. poasibly by pro­ viding half-d.,y .;essiona dealing more directly with the needs of PLU.

These rules should ffiake the formal evening, spent with a member of the opposite sex, an enjoyable ex· perience. They will guide you through the night's beginning, the pick·up from your date's house, through the dinner and dance. and finslly the drop-off back at home. Miss Black states,"Ir you're a wise young man, you've taken care to learn whst girls expect in the way of etiquette, and you've practiced it so thoroughly that your manners seem second nsture instead of something put on for the occasion. Hsving that 'easy, casua1 manner' that all fiction heroes seem to possess is simply knowing: etiquette so will thatyou never have to atop and think what todo!'" When pickingyourdate up for the evening, don't sit in the car and honk. It is proper to walk up to the door and knock. Your date, will not answer, of course because she is not ready yet. Don't be disturbed. This is a common ritual before any date. Instead of worrying. talk politely with the friend or relative who opens the door. When your dale does ap­ pear, offer a compliment about her apparel. Lead your date to the door afLe!' pinning the precarious corsage to the left side of the chest. A man should walk to the left of his date and open the car door for her. Then close it

Just be friendly and everything will work out. Upon arriving at the restaurant. drop your date off in front of the building if there s i a long walk from the parking lot. She will wait inside for you to return. AfLe!' parking tbe car, lead your date to the lobby and go to the reception desk alone. The head waiter will lead you both to the table.

you need them. Food is placed n i the mouth with the fork. Eat all the food on the large plate with the fork, never" with the back of the !!PO(1n or the knife's edge. Tender food may be cut. with a fork.. The fork can be held in the right or left hand. When nOl in use, it s i placed with tinea up, the bowl in the cent.er of the plaw. . and the handle on the edge of the plate.. When eating soup, try not to make noiae. You can tilt the spoon so that the soup will enter your mouth without a gurgling noise. Bread is placed on the bread and butter plate or at the aide of the service plate. To be proper,one should break it, on the plate,and butter small pieces separate­ ly ju!Ot before you eat them. Bak.oo. potatoe8 also have a rule of their own. Break them open by using your fork. Insert salt and pepper and eat right (rom the shell Don't let your food run together. An orderly plate is nicer to look at. Chewing and talking with your mouth full s i also a no-no. This ugly habit may give the daLe a whole dif­ ferent view of you. After dinner draw your date's chair back and assist your friend with her coat. You should follow your date while leaving the restaurant. Remember, it's the little things that catch that special person's eye. At the dance, never leave your daLe !ltranded for a minute. This may make your her feel uncomfortable. If you decide to dance with another per80n, make !lure your date is dancing with someone. Upon leaving the dance, you may want to·go get the car while your specia1 friend waits inside, Again. open the car door and close it for your date.

Viewpoints Editorial

There Is something wrong on campus. But the problem Is··sludents just don't care. The past few weeks have been filled with anli·apartheid pro· tests, hljackings, earthquakes: yet how much related discus· sion was even mentioned among PLU students over the dinner table? Every campus has its own personality, usually determined by the backgrounds of its students; and PLU students reflect their conservative, sheltered upbringing, Universities were designed to be forums for the intellectual discussion of ideas. Student conversatlons at other unlver· slties may concern President Reagan's Star Wars system, U.S. Involvement in Central America, or the dilemma of earthquake victims in Mexico. But for some reason, any issue greater than thai night's dance does not surface among most PLU :>tudents. Anti·Apartheid day came and passed tne PLU campus on Friday with barely more than a whisper among students and the display of a few black armbands. Around the country, unlv�rslties held silent vigils, active protests, and plenty of discussion. The casual observer is left to think thai sludents could care less about national and international issues. There is nothing wrong with coming from an affluent, con· servative family. The problem lies with people who get 100 comfortable to care; too comfortable to raise their heads, look at the ugly world outside and reach out a hand to help. But why should students care? Many of the world's pro. blems will most likely never affect PLU's students. But we should care, if for no other reason, than to realize that those suffering are real people just like ourselves, It Is our duty as Christians to help them.

Stress hits all of us at times, but now University orficia19 are determined to in· crease anxiety levels. Can you believe they are letting a student plan a food ­ service meal? Recipe contest? This ly should be interesting. I'm sure it will be a growing experience to hKve something normal - like a Twi.nltie on a sesame need bun or a mystery hotdish. What about the poor PlU football squad?

Federal deficit must be 'brought down' by lyle M, Jenness Bringing the mammoth Federal deficit under control will be the biggest political issue for the 1988 Presiden­ tial election, President Ronald Reagan's red nk i s i now flowing at. an annual rate of 210 billion, according to the White House's upwardly revised estimate. The deficit can be reduced n i two ways-budget cuts and I.aJl increases. No one, with the most ideological "supplysiders," really believes President Reagan's campaib"ll assertion that economic growth will dose the huge gap between revenues and spending. Reagan's own treasury debt has pre!ICnted tax in· creases to Congress and the public under such euphemistic labels as "tax reform:' "tax simplifica' tion," and "revenue enhancement." Just recently in Congress, various "flat tax" bills were introduced. One proposed by conservative "supp·

Iy side': Congressmon Jeck Kemp IR·NY) would vir­ tually dismantle the progressive income tax system based on ability to pay. A Democratic "modified flet Lax" propoaal by Richard GephardL ID-MO) would pre9Crve the basic structure of the progressive tax while lowering tax rates formost taxpayers. In exchange for lower tax rates for individuols and businesses, flat tax propoaals would close many tax deductions, exclusions, credits, preferential tax rate and deferrals of tax liability. Taxes would increase for many wealthy ndividuaJs i and corporations that now pay little or no taxes through skillful use of tax loopholes. Since the 1950s, a proliferation of tax breaks caused the corporate share of federal revenues to plUnge from about 25 percent to 8.5 percent. Over this period, the average company's effective tax rate, the percentage of its domestic income actual­ ly paid to the 45 percent to 27 percent. The statutory rate for business stayed at 46 percent. Corporations which in some recent years have avoid· ed any taxes include General Electric, which last year earned 52.4 billion butdidn't-pay a dime. Corporations got their biggest tax break in 1981 when Congress enacted Reagan Ad.-.ninistration's "supply side" Accelerated Cost Recovery System IACRS).

Vompanies were allowed rapid tax .....rite offs for their capital investmenLs instead of depreciating them to the traditional "uscful life" concept. One person's loophole, of course is another's legitimate tax relief. Most people agree, for example, t.hat the long-standing deductibility of mortgage in­ terest by homeowners serves as a good social and econommic purpose. The CongrC:9sional Joint Committee on Taxation released a study showing t.hat tax breaks allowed cor­ porations 'and individuals to escape $322 billion in taxes in fiscaJ 1984. These tax breaks, also called "tax expenditures" and "revenue forgone," were $247 billion for individuals and $75 billion for corporations. President Reagan's "trickle down theory" is to pro­ vide corporations with these tax breaks, t.hus creating room for added invest.ment for t.hem to expand and grow, as a result trickling down to you and me the future possible workera to benefit by the newly created jobs. Organized labor created opposition to this theory saying that it only benefits the rich while workers are being taken advantage of. In short; Tbey simply say, "They are tired of being trickled on." Most people assume that it. s i RonaJd, Reagan's fault t.hat we have a 2� trillion dollar deficit. We need not look further than to the Congress and the Senate. for the President can only push a bill to passagewith his political weight. The Congress and Senate have the POWCT of passage while the President only bas that of veto. So why do we have this defi�t? It comes down to one simple statement: Government spends more than it takes in, and tongress is divided over what the needs are of this country. Why is there division? In the final analysis, it comes down to " Guns or butter." Why the "guns?" Some point to the unprecedented military build up over the past 20 years by the Soviet Union. Other question how much is enough? and how much is too much?

Why the "butter?" Without the social programs some feel that if we don't have a solid nfrastructure i the whole system will collapse. They contend that so much money is going into the military budget that not only the fat from the social­ welfareprograms is being cut, but also the muscle. There are still those that contend that "Guns will make us strong, and butter will make us fat." Others insist that it's not just muscle they're cutting into (the social programs), but bone. A closer look at the facts shows in 1960, 32.3 cents of every federal. state, and local tax dollar was spent on defense. while major social·welfare programs took 20.6 cents of every tax dollar. In 1983, expenditures for defense took 16.9 cents of every tax dollar, whi l e the social programs �uired ' 33.1 cents. It isn't hard to see where the greatest. growth n i spending really s i . In 1960, John F. Kennedy. our 35th President of the United States, stated in his Inaugural Address. "That for only when our arms are sufficient beyond doubt, can we be beyond doubt, that they will never be employed. I also firmly believe that t)'Tants are only tempted when the forces of "good" are weak. case in point, December 7, 1941." Last week senators voted on a federallimitation bill which would act as an attempt to solve this nation's 2� trillion dollar deficit. These senators voted in favor of a deficit·limitation bill. The bill which would require a balanced budget hy 1991, with deficit-reduction targets set for each year beginning in 1981, s i more or less throwing up a hope and a prayer. That's what the senatol's did by exempting Social Security from the freezing or cutting which might be necessary to reach the deficit-reduction goals. Social Security and related benefits account for 30 percent of federal spending. Interest on the national debt, the ceiling which was rai� as the deficitlimita­ tion measure was passed. accounts for another 10 per­ cent, and is an uncuttable experuw, unless the debt is reduced,Yo Therefore, under the Senate bill, some 40 percent of government spending would be eIempt from cuts, and the house if likely to exempt even more. The only big·ticket item left vulnerable to cuts would be defense, whi l e it might be argued, there are areas in the defense budget which could be trimmed, it looks like the old scenario, " more Wes.

Letters Students Against PLU Apathy call for peers to apartheid stand Did you happen to notice some flyers that. were plac­ ed on the cafeteria tables last Friday that had the let­ terhead, Stl4denl$ Again�t P. L. U. Apathy? Did you take the time to read one? Did you wonder where it came from? Did you wonder what campus organization sponsored it? Did you even know it was Anti·Apartheid Day on campus and around the na· tion? (It was). Well. I have some answers. First of all, 1 am the one who placed those flyers on the tables. If you read the flyer, you would know that it was basically an c.ppea1 to all students to take a stand against apartheid. I wanted students tom.ail the bottom half of it to Dr. Relke and the Reg1lnts as a way to let them know t.hat we feel PLU should d ivest ilgeif of all its holdings with companies that do business n i South Africa. There s i no campus orga�tion sponsoring this, the idea came from my head. I am tired of apatby at PLU I am not saying the entire campus is apathetic. There are several really active groups that aremaking a difference, such as Bread for the World and certain programs of University Congregation and InterVarsity. Hut these ate not enough. We have over 3,000 students, and yet the total Dumber of active students surely does note.xceed 100. Students should be the ones who try and change the apathy of the public toward injustice, not t.he ones who are themselves apathetic. It is past. time for PLU students to make a subst.an· lial moral statement against apartheid. We need to be pUlting pressure, both indirect and direct, on the ad· ministration and the Regents to divest. Letters expressing our concerns need to be sent to administrators and Regents Ithe Regl"nts' addresses are in thec.atalog pages 118-119). Proposals need to be passed in ASPLU Senate recommending divestment to the Regents {any senators reading this please take notel.

And finally, banners need to be made and demonstrations 8taged during Regents' meetings to show that we are serious·about this (more about this at a later date). I think that Abbie Hoffman put it very well when he said to Jeny Rubin during the recent debate. "You can say whatever you want, Jerry, but what s i really Un· port.ant, and what makes a difference, is the way you live your life." Does this sound familiar? Perhaps it should, since it y a f .J a life o! empty cliches and listening to words on Sunday morning. He called us to a life of service; he exhorted. us to "hunger and thirst for righteousness"; he called us to follow him in ushering n i the kingdom of God. In closing, I have a few questions to ask each ofyou. I hope that you would take them !lCriousiy, think about them, make some decisions, and then act on these decisions. The fll'st question I ask is, do you think apartheid is a legitimate form of government? If you answer "No" to this, tben ask youself whether Jesus would have felt aparthied was a legitimate form of government. If you answered "No" to this one, then ask yourself why PLU, a Christian college, s i supporting apartheid by investing in companies that do business with Botha's white-minority government. And finally, if you cannot think of a good reason why we should support this government, then ask what we as a community should do about it.· These are the kinds of questions I have asked myself, and Stv.dent$ Again$t P. L. U. Apathy is only my fll'st. step in trying to change the world for the better. Please help be tQeliminate the truth in my letterhead.

vide constant reassurance and support. Last season, the Lutes had pro­ blems drawing fans due to their poor record, and that can hurt the con­ fidence of a team. But this season, the Lutes are drawing rowdy, vocal fans, which helps them stay pumped up during the game. All of this positive backing is not to say the Lutes don't stumbled once in a whi l e. After soundly thumping Lewis & Clark in their first game Wednesday night, the Lutes came out flat in the second game, allowing their op­ ponents a 10-0 lead without a posses­ sion change. But the only way to find ou� about the real Lutes voUeyball team is to see them in action. It may nol be the same caliber of volleyball as America saw in the 1984 Summer Olympics. but it is exciting and captivating in­ teresting to watch ITOm a stat.egists viewpoint.

Stacy Waterworth scored early for the Lutes on an assist from Kathleen Ryan. ryan began the season at golakeeper, but started at right wing against Pacific. "I was really pleased with her perfor­ mance,"said coach Colleen Hacker. "I thought she did a good job." Pacific rallied with 16 minutes left to tie the score. The Lutes are now 4-0-1 in conference and 7-4-1 overall. "We controlled the ball for about 80

minutes,"said Hacker. "We totally outplayed them." T}.e Lutes outshot Pacific 30·10. "We certainly had our opportunities. ·· said Hacker. "There were times ....e . held onto the ball too long."

Just a quick comment about the football polling ayet.em. Yes, the Lutes fell to No. 8 in this week's NAIA Division II poll and it just goes to show how worthless the poll­ ing system really is. Here is PLU, who goes and blows out Oregon Tech 55-14_ Yet the Lutes fall to eight and Lin­ field, who barely got by Willamette, hangs right in there at No. 9. I realize that all the teams ahead of the Lutes have played. more garoes are still undefeated, but upset the previous No. 2 team. Doesn't that account for anything? In the pollsters eyes, it must not.

The PLU men'a soccer team had an 18 game conference winning streak snap­ ped with a 1-0 loss to Willamette last Saturday. The Lutes gave up the lone goa] in the 718t minute of play.

Women's soccer conference record remains unblemished

Sportswrap What a difference one season makes. Last season, the Pacific Lutheran University women's volleyball squad was the laughing stock of Northwest small colleges. It had the spirit and the talent, it's just that the results never seemed to \;!ad to victory. This season, the Lady Lutes lOOK like a totally different team. They have already bettered their 4·24 mark of 1984 with a 9·14 record 8.!1 of Wednesday. Many of the faces are the same. but it's as if they've taken off masks and have begun to live up to their potential. The newest face in the Lutes preseason volleyball camp this year was that of coach Marcene Sullivan, who took over the reigns from Kathy Hemion WteI' she resigned last spring. Sullivan brought some pret.ty im­ pressive credentials with her_ She played her college volleyball at ShOl'eline Community College where she earned regional AACC all·star honors. Sullivan also competed in seven national tournaments with the University of WashingUln and the United States Volleyball Association teams. Sullivan was the head women's coach at Shorewood High School captained Lhe 1982 European Tour team. Now Sullivan's task is to coach the Lutes, a strong and willing squad. The spirit and drive of this squad is unmatched by any volleyball oppo­ nent entering the confines of Memorial Gymnasium. No matter if they are winning of losing, these gals are intense in both their play and their determination_ The Lutes were hurt early in the season, losing sophomore Libby Allen and senior Linda McBain to temporary injuries. McBain is back no.)V and Allen's coming along, add· ding to the bench atrength of the Lutes. The bench strength. There's something not to be overlooked. Sure, the starters are important, but so are the players who not only give their teammates a rest, but also p,?"

There's :I new piece of solid gold muchinery at PLU, The only thing special about it is that it takes eleven m�n to drive it. Eleven men? A piece of machinery? Yep, It's the PLU steamroller. After some gear-jamming and grin­ ding, PLU put the roller in gear and squashed Oregon Tech, 55·14 in a Col· umbia Football League cross-()ver game at John F, Moehl Stadium in Klamath Falls, Oregon.

Foru m focuses on i n fo systems by Kathy Lawrence

Mast staff reporter

PLU held its finlt Presidential Forum in E8lItvoid Auditorium on the issue of "Technology and Uberal Art&: a Dialogue in Transition." Robert Stivers, professor of religion, said the forum was constructed around the idea that a tiberaJ arts education should promote a student to question everything, including technology. Stivers, project coordinator for the forum, said President Rieke wanted PLU to deal with the issue of technology. Therefore, Stivers said that PLU and the Consortium for the Advancement of Private Higher Education, a gl'Oup of foundations wich help small colleges fund such projects. set up three presidential forums. 1\I.esday's forum dealt with informa­ tion syatems. The other two forums. to be held in JanulU}' and April, will focus on biomedical technology and the ef­ fects of Weatem technology on the deveJopment of third world nations. Stivers said that technology is one of the most important forces in the modern world, yet people do not seem to quea· tlOn it. "'We pay absolutely no attention to it." Stivers said, " But, those n i volved in s liberal arts education should question it." Stivers said that although there ia no measure of success and failure for the forum, he had hoped for a larger faculty and student turnout. "I am puuJed why a subject of auch importance doesn't attract more t.ur­ nout,"' Stivers said. (See related editorial on page 4).

Tuesday

President Rieke said the forum was a lIuperior event with a high quality in­ teraction between the disciplines. But, he said he was disappointed in faculty and atudent turnout considering classes were cancelled so that everyone could attend. He added that perhaPII the forum was scheduled too close to mid-terms or was not sdvertised and explained well . enough. Whatever the case, Rieke said, students not only lost a lot of tuition dollars, but also missed a ricb, unique opportunity. Classes were ::ancelled in order that faculty and students could attend the varioull presentations. The fust address, entitled "Informa· tion Technology; Promises and Paradoxes," was given by Steve Thrasher, associate professor of business administration. Thrasher discussed the co-eristence of man and machines. He said that machines can enhance the quality of life by m.eing man from " mental and allowing him more personal time. Yet, Thrasher said there are some things which man does better than a machine. He said it is important to establish a "balance" between tbe two. Thrasher said that some bad side ef­ fects come with technology. For enmple, Thrasher said that although the automobile provides mobiliy and personal freedom, the pro­ blems of pollution, noise and urban con· gestion were not predicted. "We aren't that amart," Thrasher said. He said one must consider the idea o("no pain, no gain." Michael Bananan and Christopher Spicer of the communication arts department compiled the second forom

address entitled "Technological Overload: Paradoltieal Influences on the Communication of Culture." Spicer, who read the pr8gentation, identified the two major side effects be and Bartanen flOd with technology. First of all, he said that technology blurs the distinction between informa­ tion and knowledge. Information is a pattern of stimuli. Spicer said. but knowledge is the actual application of information to solve pro­ blems. Confusing the two. he said. can

PLU's financial aid office awarded, nearly SI million more student aid than is in its budget, but AI Perry, director of financial aid, says it's PLU's practice to award more than is in its budget. He also anticipates that the financial aid office will recover the S908.000 dif­ ference by May. Perry said the university will award several hundred thousand doUars more in financial aid each year. projecting that t.he sum will be "recaptured" through students that, for several reasons, don't use the aid swarded to them. , The $908,000 difference in financial aid awarded and actual funds available was caused when the university under­ estimated the number of students who would accept financial aid from PLU this year. At the time awards are made in the spring "we estimate how many students are not going to show,·' Perry said. . Nearly $600,000 of tbe $908,000 has already been recovered througb no-show students who decided not to attend PLU this fall Perry said. More of the money will be recovered from people who don't come back in the spring, and from students who don't take enough credits, The fmancial aid office also recoverll funds when students fail to sign for their loans. The financial aid office tends to be le­ nient about tbe time atudents have to sign for their loans, Perry said. Most loans are signed during the fust two weeks of scbool in each semester, Those students who have not signed during tbose first two weeks are then personally contacted.

Too few seats l ose Koo l a n d G a ng concert by Kathy Lawrence Mast stall reporter

A difference of 4,000 Beals caused PLU to lose out on a chance to hOSl a concert with Kool (l;.nd the Gang and said 52,000, approximately earn Cameron Clark, ASPLU's entertain· ment committee co-chair. Clark explained that the Alaskan pro­ mOler for the band's tour. Dynamic Pro­ ductions, had booked a concert at the University of Washington for Oct. 31. He said that due to an athletic event which took precedence, the university cancelled the concert. It was then that Sandra Gardner from Dynamic Productions called ASPLU and asked if PLU would be interested in providing a facility for the concert, said Clark. He said that he and Gardner discuss· ed a 51200 fee for the use of PLU's Olson Auditorium, a percentage of ticket earnings and a number of student discount seats.

Unfortunalely. Clark said Kool and the Gang laid Gardner they war-ted lO i a larger facility. perform n ASPLU Program Director Ann Chris, Olson explained tiansen that Auditorium seats only 3,000 people. She said the band usually performs sold out concerts for audiences of 8.000 to 10.000. But, said Clark, PLU would still have played host to the band if the SeattJe Arena had not bumped another act in order to accommodate Kool and the Gang on Oct, 31. He said PLU was the only other facility available for that date. The SeattJe Arena, seats 7,000 pe0ple, he said. Since the concert would have been profitable for PLU, Clark said it is un' fortunate that the band made other ar­ rangements. He added that Gardner told him she hopes to work with PLU me. another ti "They're IKool and the Gangl one of the hottest bands in the country right now in album sales," Clark said. Although ASPLl' suffered a substan­ tial fir.ancial loss last year when it

brought the rock group Toto to PLU, Clark said he would like to see another in Olson big·name band perform Auditorium. He said the problem with the Toto concert was ASPLU's inexperience. He added that ASPLU was so excited about bringing the group to PLU, that they failed to pay attention to the fact that the band was having difficuJty sell· ing tickets nation-wide. "It was a learning experience," said Clark. "I don't consider the concert IToto) a failure. The public numbers were low, but 900 to 1,000 PLU students showed up and had a good time." Ideally, Clark said he would like to see ASPLU bring one big-name band to campus this semester and, if the first concert goes well, another one in the spring. He added that his hopes depend and upon the senate, the executives . ASPLU's budget. After the financial losa of Toto, Clark said a number of students complained that they wouJd rather see ASPLU bring a few small bands than one big­ name band. Clark said that on Oct. 12,

ASPLU brought Sam !:)mith, a popular Seattle singer, to campus and only 150 students attended the concert. Clark said perhaps the low turnout in· dicRtes that it is better to bring a big band that students are willing to see. He added that Mary Lou Fenili, vice president of Student Life, attended the Sam Smith concert. He said that Fenili told him she loved the concert and that she supports ASPLU undertaking such projects. "Wh� kids don't come and support ASPLU's events and Mary Lou does, there is something wrong," Clark said, i very supportive, he said. If Fenili s ASPLU comes up with a reasonable pro­ posal for a good concert, Clark said he doubts that the administration wouJd oppose it. Clark said he receives phone calls every day from entertainers and pro­ moters who are interested in PLU. He said he bas to wait and see how the financial issue works out before he can act on anything, "We (ASPLUI know what we have to do next time," Clark said.

AID, from page 1 " Fali loans have to be signed by the end ofOc­ tobe�." said Pat Hills, supervisor of student loan collections. If a student does not sign for his loan, it. is taken off his account and he is billed for the amount, Perry said. There is no problem with freshman who attend financial aid orientation, Hills said. They are told they have to go sign, There are more problems with the upper c1assmen, 5he said. Finding off-campus studenLS may be a pro­ blem. said Hills. Hills said only about two or three students per year don't receive their aid because they don't take lime to sign for it. "Those students are the ones who " really need it andiL hurts," said Hills.

He said technology emphasizes content and ignores the rela· tionship aspect.

Spooktacu l a r adds ' s p i rit' to H o mecom i n g by Oavld Steves Mast news editor

Next week's homecoming celebration will resurrect a Lute Halloween celebration, while burying "The , Homa:omingeve dance. Stomp." the traditional "Spooktacular." a Halloween celebration, will be one ?f l e major events of "Let's Go Crazy, Homecoming Set for Thursday from 8 p.m. to midnight, 85. SpookLacular events will include a masquerade ball sponsored by J-Iinderlie Hall and a spookhouse, to be run by the homecoming commitl€e. The ASPLU movie committoo will host "Monster Movies and Munchies. " Kriedler Hall will sponsor a Polaroid picture booth and other campus groups ....iII host additional events and booth�.

The Spooktacular Halloween event originated at PLU in the late 1970s, but hasn't been held here for about seven years, recalled Marvin Swenson, director of the University Center and Student Activities. While the homecoming committee is taking a step toward tradition with the revival of Spooktacular, it is breaking tradition by replacing "The Stomp." In the past a live band bas played for The Stomp, but this year recorded music will be played at the event, " Rock the Casbllh." set for Friday between 10 p.m. and 2 s.m. in the University Center. Dance music will be programmed by KNBQ disc jockey Mark Mayo. The dance will include a laser light show and a fog machine. Stradling said. "We tossed arourd the idea of using taped music rather than a live band, and felt that we could put on a ,

better show with the laser light show as opposed to a live band," Stradling said, He added that hiring a KNBQ personality to host the dance will cost ASPLU 5500, about 51.000 less than a band would cost. Casino Night is also on the agenda for homecoming week. Tuesday from 7 to 9 p.m. the Cave will be transformed into a "Las Vegas·style gambling casino," Stradling said. Play money will be used, and a variety of prizes will be offered for those with the largest winnings. Homecoming week will culminate Saturday with the homecoming parade at 11 a.m the PLU·Whitwort.h " football game, and homecoming entertainnlent and royalty announcements at the game's halftime.

H a l loween History

Trick or treat replaces human sacrifice rites Long after the church had triumph­ ed over organized paganism, country people everywhere in Europe oon­ tinued their ancient practice of placating local spirits. The parish pricsts tolerated these goings even jf they did not approve of them. But soon the church stepped in and took 8 stand on this issue.

Among all the festivals celebrated, few have stranger histories than Halloween. It is the eve of All Hallows - or Hallowfn8s • or All Saint's Day. And as such it is one of the most solemn festivals of many churches. Although Halloween has become a night of frolic which people take only half seriously, its beginnings were quite solemn. The earliest Halloween celebrations were held by the Druids in honor of Samhain, Lord of the Dead, whose festival fell on Nov. I. Horges and human beings were sacrificed at this time. The hUl:'lan victims were usual­ ly criminals who had been rounded up for tl:.e occasion. Those to be spcrific­ ed were confined in wicker cages made in the fonn of huge animals. The cages were set afire by the priests and the prisoners w'ere roasted alive. This practice was outlawed by Roman command after the conquest of Britain. In spite of this suppression. the old rites surviv­ ed. For centuries the Druids con­ tinued their sacrifices. but with black cats. They believed that these cats were the familiars of witches. or even witches themselves. since it was believed that they would transform .into black cats.

The result was the emergence of witchcraft as a cult. defying the church. In turn. the common people possessed a fear of this now· abolished practice. Over the last few centuries, from the 1500's to the present, this fear has diminished quite thoroughly.

Editorial This year's first Presidential Forum held Tuesday showed four times more faculty than students in crowds that only half filled Eastvold auditorium. But this didn't come as any surprise. Academic lecture presentations have never been well attended at PLU. The speakers presented their materiai in a lengthy, in depth, rather dry manner which would have held the attention of only the most dedicated students. After listening for a white, It seemed that the lec­ tures were geared more for faculty than students. University professors make their living Indulging in and searching out this kind of intel lect. But students think in practical terms. The majority are looking only lor knowledge they can use in their first job after graduation. If the Forum was mainly for faculty, then why cancel a full day of classes in the university to hold a program that could have been given to faculty on their own time. If it was just as much for students, then present It In a manne, that will better attract and hold the interest of the students. The idea for the forum was good. The subject and material were good. The speakers had researched their material extremely well. But the presentation of the In­ formation was hopelessly dull. We live In a visually exciting society where students have been born and raised on television. No matter how good the content of an event is, it simply will not draw a crowd unless it is visually exciting and entertaining. Faculty members could have included many more elements into their presentations to make them ex­ citing and better hold the attention of the audience. In fact, professors teach their students to include audio visual materials in their public presentations. Speakers could have shown slides, movies, diagrams, or anything visual, rather than simply stand behind a podium and talk at the audience. It is nol thai a presentation must be light and humorous to get a high student turnout, but, for the most part, students will not come to an event that pro­ mises to be as entertaining as a classroom lecture. Another reason for the Forum's low student turnout was the publicity it received. Though there were plenty of flyers placed around the university, professors could have taken more time to explain to students what the . Forum was all about. A lthough students were encouraged to attend by their professors, It was obvious that many chose not to go simply because they didn't understand what It was all about. Is there any way to attract a high student turnout at such an event that holds so much potential. It seems fairly simple. Make It something the students will be excited to at· tend; that promises to be enlightening, informative, and stimulating. The same subject matter and content can be suc­ cessfully presented, but In a much more visually ex­ citing format.

"College students don't know what stress is," a friend of mine said. What does he mean? College students are stressed. We have finals. We have term papers. Our days are booked solid from the time we step out of bed. But then I thought about what else he said. "Just walt till you have three kids, house and car payments, and then your paycheck runs out." He was right. The pressures we feel are real, but they are not critical matters that would destroy us or cause us to lose our Jobs If we failed. When midterms and flnala come, we must keep them In perspective. There Is plenty of time to worry about real dangers after we graduate.

Fitness Center offers daily show by Clayton Cowl

Mast staff reporter

Bored? Looking for amusement? A new facility on campus is sure to cure those mid·semester blues. Dubbed the Names Fitness Center, PLU's newest addition is an offspring of the fitness revolution pointed at m.a.kiDg every individuaJ a life-like represen· tative of the Incredible Hulk or Christie Brinkley. I've been in the fitness center every day of the week. aearching for either one, but all I found was one Incredible Sulk and a rude mode! of a lumpy Jane Fonda. Naw, not really. But at certain times, the fitness cneter appears to be a comedy show rather than a workout ""''''. The idol of every beginner is the established athlete. Athletes come in different molds-different shapes, dif­ ferent styles and different qothing. The m08t conspicuous, of COUr.ge, is the football player. Sweatshirts and sweatpants are a must. They never forget to slip on their pair of Adidas turf shoes and some loose-fitting socks. The objective of every football player s i to bench press enough weight to make the bar bend, or at least crsck. But after that, it's all right to stand around and scope out the femaJe athletes Of the pseudo-aerobicizers plopped down on the stationary bikes reading a Harlequin romance novel.

The

Soccer players are spotted rather easi­ ly, too. Just check for some dirt on a gold PLU soccer sweatshirt, some Nike all-sport. cleats tied together and slung over the shoulder and a couple of go!d teeth in t.he jaw. They'll be the ones do­ ing a few leg presses or kicking a soccer ball (most soccer balls will be surgically attached at .the toe). Swimmers have chlorine-infested eyes, ""hile crew members ploP down on that funny looking seesaw with a bicycle wheel on one end and crank away for hours on end. Baseball players and basketball players have it hard. Sn i ce they can't figure out what they use more-their up­ per or lower body, they are forced to work out on both. The telltale factor will be the high·top court shoes for hoopsters and a hat for baseball players. Baseball players would crumble without a hst on their head. The aerobics class is always a happy addition to the fscility for if nothing else, comic relief. PLU women somehow suck themgelves n i to a pair of lavender or pink tights and I�g-wanners and the XXX-large "I'M AEROBICIZED!'· sweatshirt until total fitness levels have been attained. Ultra-fitness levels are reached when the sweatshirt proclaims Pacific Lutheran University football with their boyfriend Harry Csnary 's big number 95 plastered on back.

Dear Editor. I would like to comment on your editorial in last Friday's issue of The Mast. I think student.!! do care about what's going on in the world around them, regardless of whether or not they talk about it during dinner. Also I resent your stereotyping of PLU students as ·'affluent, conser· vative and sheltered." With over 70 per· cent of the student body receiving finlln· cial aid I find it hard to believe that we are "affluent." As to being conser­ vative, so what? Should we be embar­ rassed or ashamed that we are not liberals? No les9 a conservative than President Reagan has condemned spar­ theid and hijacking and sent aid to ear· thquake victims n i Mexico.

What about being sheltered? Perhaps you're right on this point. If we put on black armbands and protf!9t llpartheid while ignoring genocide in Afghanistan, the use of slave Isbor n i the Soviet Union, and the torture and imprison­ ment of political prisoners in Cuba and Nicaragua, then we are indeed 9helt.ercd. Finally I would like to borrow frOln your last editorial " ... we should care, if for no other reason than to realize that those suffering are real people just like uurseives, it i9 our duty as Christians to help them."

How students afford college by Carla T. Sayalll Mast stall reporter

The studentdollar. It is a pNlcious commodity in the current age of rising tuition costs. Some students still receive coll� money from theirparents, a rich aunt or grandmother. Most however, rely on a variety of loans, scholarships, and work study programs. PLU students are no different, according to A1 Perry, direc· tor of PLU's flllancial aid office. Seventy percent of PLU's students receive some type of financial aid, he said. That percentage proportionally average compared to past years, Perry said, but the figure is sure to rise. "At this point in time it's probably the same. As we along we'll probably add some more and it'll go up:' he said. Most students are eligible for a varit'ty of aid money, but 2ach requires a different level of need. perry said most aid alloca· tions are based on family income, assets, number of family members. and number of students in college. Financial aid geta a dirty name becauge of the word " need," he said. Some studentscome from families who can afford to put ther.l through school but have an m i mediate cash flow pr� blem. Those parent.s can apply for a Parent Loan which allows them to borrow up to $3,000. The averagefamily who applies for aid has an income of $32,000 a year, he said. The university also offers a variety of scholarships programs. Funding for these programs comes from unrestricted gifts aDd donation� from PLU Q Club members. The mODey is channeled into an annual fund which underwrites tuition cost.s, provides scholarship money and helps maintain the university budget. In the years Perry bas been at PLU, he said he bas seen profile of an average coUege student change considerably. Some enter college much later first time around. Others wait and retum after raising a family or switching careers. In almost all cases, Perry said, the averagecoUege student "dDell not have a lot of ea:tra money." Spending money is figured into a fmancial aid award. "We give them reasonable spending money for theyear. .. he said. $1,020 for pe!'aorW To meet theirebd of the financial aid bargain student.s must contribute a portion of their aummer job money to the aid award.

"With any kind of reasonable summer job they should be able to save. We anticipate most of tbem are living at home," Perry said. 'The availability of financial aid s i not always the main deter­ mining factor in chOOsing a college or university, to Perry. Students aregenerally attracted to specific academic programs, tho peraonality of the institution and other campus aspects. Students generally negotiate for aid based on the coats of a particular institution which offers an appealing program, he said. " The programs that schools have to offer have a bearing They really wantthe program and as long as the flgUfes we of· fer are in the baUpark, they'U take it," he said. There are those students, however, who apply several places, collect aid offers and then make their decision based on available money, he explained. "There are books they can buy that give a brief de9Cription of school, types of aid, number of student.s and so on," Perry said. PLU's tuition is in the middle of the cost spectrum. Tuition costs generally mirror the cost of living in various geographic regions. he said. While education may cost more in general Perry said he believes it is still available to students who are willing to go to a community college, for either aU of their education, or a portion of it. "I don't see any barrier at a community coUege. Anybody who really wants to go to a community college can do it," he said. " The tuition gap is between private and state schools." Perry said the sterootype which portrays PLU as a haven for student.s with wealthy parents is not completely accurate. EtlCh college or university has a percentage of wealthy students in its population, but most como from the middle class. PLU may be different n i respect to its Christian heritage and strong family support, Perry theorizes. "The kids here probably have more fSmi l y resources to help them through school as a whole but that doesn't mean they have a lot of extra money to throw around." Aid usually does not stop with a financial sward or scholar· ship. Most students also work some type of work stody program. Beth Ahlstrom, assistant career services director. said there are plenty of jobs svailable in the state work study program because state funding increased over last year. Through the program, employers are reimbursed tw�thlrds of the salary they pay. Pari,. of lhe finaneial aid awsrd comes n i the form of work study eligibility. The two are balanced between what students can earn snd parents can afford to pay. "Students I see make it very clear to me that they have to work in order to stay in school.'· Ahlstrom said. Work study students usually work 19 hours per week during Bchool and extnl hours during Interim and vacations.

Band Aid. Farm Aid, Live Aid, and now - Anti.Apartheid. With the release this week of the single "Sun City." rock music joins with its cousins jau, reggae, and rhythm and blues to continue its hreak from the 70s disco malaise into a new style of politico­ =k. This composition Lakes a much more controversial approach than its predecessors "Don't They Know it's Ctuistmas?" and "We are the World." In addition. the rhythm and blues feel of "Sun City" presents the anti'apartheid message more intensely than the sweet harmonies Of " We Are the World." The lyrics speak for themselves: "relocation to phony homelands," "peo-

The lyrics force the listener to think about the causes of discrimination and what role each person plays n i it. It is not purely political. though. Apartheid affects human beings who live. breathe; and laugh; it is not simply a matter of political boundaries or propllganda.

Blacks in South Africa comprise 75 percent of the population, but they are allowed only 1 3 percent of the property. The average monthly industrial wage for whites is S701...for blacks it is S186. Between 30 and 50 percent of all black children in South Africa die before the age of five. Listening to "Sun City" or purchasing the record will not solve South Africa's problems. but perhaps if enough people hear the message this song offers, they will be motivated to act. This was true for "We Are the World" when millions reafu..ed innocent children were starving. Well, innocent children are dying far more violent deaths in South Africa everyday. It is up to us to make a difference... to put pressure on legislators and policy makers to work toward II viable 5Olution to the problem of apartheid. If we do not then the lyrics of" Sun Ci· ty" may one day return to haunt us. "We're stabbing our brotbers and sisters in the back.. "

SO-O to break a school winning margin record in a contest held last Saturday. Oct. 19 in Lakewood Stadium. PLU's 50'point \'ictory margin sur' passed the 4S·point previous mark set in 1982 against Lewis and Clark when the Lutes pounded out a 48-0 shutout. The win puts PLU in an uncontested top spot in Columbia League standings at 2·0 and 4-0·1 for the season as the squad rolled up 405 yards of total of·

fense and held Eastern Oregon to a mere 63 yards offense for the entire afternoon. "The best thing to watch was the tot.al team effort." explained PLU head coach Frosty Westering. "The first unit came OUt and played so efficiently. but the backup players also did a fine job at a lot of different positions. " The Lutes scored on their first five possessions for 21 first.quarter points and 14 second·period tallies as they led 3S·0 at the halfway mark before calling upon the reserves. On Pacific Lutheran's first posses· sion. the Lutes drove 62 yards in 8 plays for an early score. The drive was keyed by a 24·yard screen pass from Jeff Yarnell to Mike Vindivich that took the ball to the Mounties 5·yard line before Mark Helm bulied into the end lone on the next play. On the next drive. Jon Kral pounced on a loose football at the Mountaineer 16·yard line after quarterback Jeff Winters was hit and sacked. Three pl9Ys later, Vindivich slammed into the end zone from one yard out. while Mark Foeg1!'s PTA kick made il 14·0. Yarnell hit Vindivich for a 2S·yard pass play to the EOse 3, while Jud Keim carried the ball into the end z.one from three years out neor the er.d of the fU"8t period. Vindivich sprinted for a 21·yard touchdown with 12:29 left n i the second period, while Steve Senna angled into the end wne from 9 yards out with Pat O'Grady adding the conversion. In the third period, a S2.yard fwd goal attempt by Mark Foege hit the left crossbar u the hold was muffed after a poor snap. But PLU got thinp back on track when Tyler Trumbull ended up on the receiving end of a 14·yard touchdown pass from Lee Sherman at the conclu· "!!lion of the third quarter. Steve Valach broke two tackles en route to a four·yard touchdown run with 2:S8 left in the game. After a broken play on the point after touchdown at· tempt, kicker Pat O'Grady picked the ball up, pump faked and angled for the corner of the end wne to give the Lutes a two-point conversion and break the school victory margin record. " I picked the ball up and one of their guys was JUSt mirroring me along the line." remembered O'Grady. "I pump faked and he sucked back in. so I just ran as fast as I could into the end zone. I t was scary," he grinned. Westering seemed pround of his

defensive squad's accomplishments. "The d'lfense had another powerful game," he said. "They did a heckuva job moving guys all over. But it was the reserves who kept up the fine tempo of the game. When Steve {Valachi scored his touchdown, he did it with second ef· fort and that kind of play is what total ,. team play is all about. Individually, Jeff Yarnell passed six times with four completions for 74 yards, whi l e Lee Sherman went 2 for 3 for 45 yards. PLU had five ballcarriers with over 30 yards as Mike Vindivich led the list with 62 yards on 9 rushes, while Craig Pu:rey ran 49 yards 0:1 9 carries, Mark Helm went 35 yards on 8 carries, Jud Keim toted the ball 7 times for 33 yards, and Eric Krebs ran 8 times for 32 yards. The Lutes will need total team play this weekend as they face Central Washington University in Ellensburg this Saturday, Oct. 26 for a 1:30 p.m. kickoff.

The CWU Wildcats 13·2\ are coming off a 31-18 win over Lewis and Clark after rolling up a school'record 659 yards total offense. Quarterback Matl Brklajacich threw a nine-yard scoring strike and Tan for a seven·yard touchdown of his own in the victory.

The PLU women's &OCCer team main· tained eole posession of fll'st place in the NCIC by defeating previously undefested Whitman 3·1 on Saturday. Whitman 8COred the fll'st goal four minutes nto i the fll'st hall. Ruth Frobe came back a minute later to tie the score. The Lutes went on to score two goals in the next 15 minutes. Sonya Brandt and Stacy Waterworth ac· counted for the Lutes' final two goals. "We really rolle to the occasion." said coach Colleen Hacker. "Whitman i.s a very physical team." On Fridsy, Brandt booted in three goals in less than 20 minutes of playill8

time to lead the Lutes to a 4-1 victory over Lewis & Clark. Brandt bad limited playing tlme because of a sprained ankle. Waterworth added the other Lutes' goa1. "11lere wa9 lots of bench contn'bu· tion," said Hacker. "We proved to ourselves we can play with Jots of dif· ferent people." Hacker said the Lutes probably played the finest back·to-back games of the season last weekend. "We're teIilly pushing hard and plly. ina well as a team," said Hacker. PLU improved their overall record to 9-4·1 and t.hcir conference record to 1)-0..1.

Good news thill week for the PLU football learn and its post'5eason playoff chances. Four teams ahead of the Lutes in the NAJA Division II col· lege football poU lost games this past Saturday. giving PLU a more secured position for the playoffs. Probably the most important loss smong the Top 20. as far a.s the Lutes are concerned, was WesLern Mor.tana's 35·14 win over No. 4 Carroil ipreviously 6'()) of MonWna. That game had a special significance for PLU as Carroll is n i the same region for the playoffs as the Lutes. The rcason that is important is that the number onc team (i.e. the rugben T8nked team in the November 16 paUl from each region receives an automatic berth n i to the playoffs.

There are some chances for more of these top ten teama to fall before the f mal poU on Nov. 16.

Dorm damage decreases as student responsibility grows by Miriam Bacon

Mast stall reporter

Gum jamml,."<i into dorm room locks. torn window screens and broken mirrors are some of the dormitory damub'C incidt'nts reported this year at PLU. said Jim Phillips, director of the physical plant. But despite there predictable rooccurance every yeW'. dorm damage is on the decrease, said Jan Maul Smith. hOUSing coordinator. "Students art' taking pride in their dorms." said Phillips. "There is considerably less damage than five years ago," Maul·Smith reported. "We mostly deal with dorm damage during student checkout (at the e:.d of the semester)." Maul·Smith said. This usually n i volves only minor room damage. she added. " If an incident occurs during the year the parties in· volved are charged at that time," she said. "Student.a are a.5king the administration t.o be more accountable for student's money," she said. "We try to hold individual students responsible." Ninety·five percent of the time individual students are held accountable to pay for the damage, said I.auralee Hagen, director of Residental Life. Very little dorm damage ends up being paid for by an entire wing or dorm. she said. It usually is paid for by thll people who caused the destl1.lction. "Students are good about paying for damages," Phillips soid. They are also real good about admitting their fault. he added. When damage occurs in public dorm areas and can· not be attributed to an n i dividual, members of the wing on which it occurred arecharged. Last year, students living on Stuen's second south I<'ing were each char�'Cd 510 becausp. those responsible

for spraying paint on the carpet did not confess to the crime, /laid Jim Mischler, Stuen hall director. Ivy Hall was flooded last year when drains in the showers were plugged and the water was turned on, said Scott r.lonson, preS{'ntly hall director of Ranier who was an Iv)' RA lastyoar. Damage is prioritized according to how immediately it needs to be repaired. Phillips said. The less hazar· dous the damage, the less priority it's given. Hall directors are required t.o mark on the maintenance form the immediacy of the damage. Jill Christensen, a sophorr.ore in Alpine. was charged for room damage last year. She and her roommate had put a cork bulletin board on the wall. When they took it down at the end of the year all of the cork did not come off the wall she said. When they tried to scrape it off the wall, the paint was damaged. She said she was expecting maintenance t.o rlX it over the summer. But when she came back to her room, she said she was disappointed that it had not been repaired. Steve Roth, an RA in Ivy, was charged $40 for damage done to the bookshelvea in his room last year. He and his roommate had put bunks up using the bookshelves in their Alpine room. "It was our fault the ....y the bunks were put up," Roth said when the end boards on the shelves came off. The RA t.old us that we would each be charged SIS, he said. But when he received his account balance he noticed a 140 charge. "It's unusual that they were billed more than what the room condition report says," Hagen said. "That's not normal." The room condition report lists an estimated charge she said. An RA can only estimate the cost of repair. Estimates aN! made from a list the physica1 plant

has issued, Maul·Smith said. Or students are charged the actual cost repair, Christensen was originally quoted $7. Her account balance showed she was charged $17. 9he said. She took the malter to Maul·Smith. A clerical error wa9 found. She was credited the difference. "If it was a mistake we would be happy to credit the difference," Hagen said. Roth said he did not. take the ti me to find out why he was charged more. H 9tudent.s come in they will not be auo..omatically credited the difference, Hagen said. " It depends on the circumstances. " "We would be happy to Cllplain the difference," Hagen said. "We're not intentionally ripping off studenta hoping they won'tcome in," she said. Accorrung to Roth's room condition report, the $15 was crossed offand the '.0 was added. "There was a lot Ie" atudent vandalism la.st year and cert.ain.ly this year than previous years," Phillips said. "There's a lot of vandalism from outside people. Vandalillm from out.aiden is about the same and may be on the increase," he said. "Recently $5000 worth of windows were broken on the north end of Rieke Science Center which was done by outsidera," Phillips said. Last year a bathroom in Olson sustained $3000 worth of smoke damage, he said when kids outside PLU lit a bunch of paper towels. Damages such as these are absorbed by the universi· ty in two budget accounts used for donn im· provements, Phillips said. Maul·Smith stressed that student tuition pays for tuition and buildings. "Money they pay for housing goes back nto i hous· ing," she added.

Faculty committee tenures new colleagues with 'good reputation' by Jonathan

Feste

Mast reporter

The faculty tenure committee, headed by English profe950r Paul Benton, are bebrinning its annual deliberations on the b'fllnting of tenure to PLU instl1.lc' tors who have taught at the university for at least six year8. The selection pro­ cess will be complete by December. Every sixth'year faculty member must go through the process, said Benton. Benton described tenure lIS the univer' lIity's commitment to faculty members who have established good reputations as teachers and scholars. Tenure is a job guarantee. barring serious university financial problems or gross faculty in· competence or moral depravity. "This is the big thing because there is noin betwllt'n," said Hent.on. He added that faculty not tenured are given a on�year final teaching conmct. But he also said that generally PLU faculty members know whether or not they will be tenured. The university has no faculty tenure quota, he pointed out. PLU's tenure process. Bent.on said. emphasi;tes teaching effectiveness. .. No faculty member with a poor teaching record will likely be tenured, " he stated. Excellence in teaching can compen· sate for shortcomings in another area of evaluation, publillhing articles. But he said it is more difficult to evaluate teaching capabilities compared to publishl'd articles. Once a faculty member s i tenured, the drive that kllt'ps the professor's pursuit of ucellent:c, is three-pronged, said Benum. FaCUlty complacency s i not likely, he said, because tenure 8110w8 academic people to continue de\'eloping their curiosity. By the time most faculty reach the tenure point. ther'�'e made it throu2'h tht' "sifting" of faculty ho constantly

enter and leave PLU. The importance of tenure itself, Benton said, is that it "keeps the university from being distorted from outside forces." Tenure sllows academic freedom without fear of reprisal from ad· m inistrators or out.side people, he said, referring to what he called a misuse of power dur it:g the 1950s McCarthy era and its effect on colleges. As of last ThUrsday, the eight faculty members to be considered for tenure this year were required to aubmit evidence and recommendations detai l· ing their abilities. A recommendation from the commit· tee, lIS well as a separate repoTt from the Provost on each individual, will be sent to President Rieke for his final decision. Benton said the I.ormal assumption is that anyone up for tenure will get it. Though he said there are "tensions" in hoirung his tenure committee, he thinks "it is an extremely important faculty runction." "No good person has been forced to leave because there is no tenure room," Benton said. From nearly a dOUln faculty members considered for tenure last fall. one was rejected. This fall the ei5ht seeking tenure are: Edwin Clausen, Assistant ProfeSllor of History Constance Hansen, Assistant Professor of Nursing Sharon Jansen·Jaech, Assistant Pro­ feS50r of English Bradford Moore, Assistant Professor of Physca1 Education Dick Dlufa, ASllistant Professor of Political Science Rochelle Snee, Assistant Professor of Languages Steven Thrasher.

Leg sled trims student fat

by MIrIam Hacon Mast staff reporter

PLU students may have more shapely hips and legs this year thanks to the latest addition to the Names itness Center. Scott Westering, fitness consul· tant for the center and staff assis' tant lor the PE department, said the new hip and leg sled exercises the lower bo$iy. "It uses every muscle from the waist down," he said. " It's becom· ing real popular. It's the safest machine you can use on the lower body," The sled puts the exerciser in the most advantageous leverage position (on the back) which takes stress off the lower body, said Westering. 800 pounds of new free weights have been added as well this year. Other logistical changes have been made at the Center, as well. The exercise bicykes were mov· ed to the center of the room to be closer to the monitor. which

simulates a ride through Yellowstone Park. There are three different tours shown. said Westering, and each tour lasts 20 minutes. The multi·station unit, formerly located in the center of the room, h,,-s been moved to a corner. On an average day, nearly 300 people use the fitness Center, said Westering. The heaviest usage time is from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m., he said. "Usage of fitness center is nor· mal wear and tear," Westering said. " Students are real good about not abusing the facilities. What they're not good about is deaning up after themselves ileav· bg weights lying around)." Westering s i available in the fitness center from noon to 2 p.m., Monday through Thursday for anyone who would like IISsistance with a weight·training program. He is also teaching several weight training classes which help students establish a program or help improve a current one.

Tax system scrutinized; no easy answers

by Lance Kuykendall Mast staff reporter Most people agree that their own taxes are too high, but at Tuesday's Na­ t.ional Issues Fomm. the audience found it more difficult to agree on improving the tax system. Who should pay taxes and how they should pay was the topic of a National Issues Fomm held Oct. 29 in the R.egen· cy Room of the University Center. The two-hour fomm studied three questions: Should tax loopholes be eliminated in favor of a simpler, fairer tax system: How should the tax burden be distributed between different income levels: and should more of the tax burden be placed on other revenue sources such as corporations. , The forum was sponsored by PLU's Division of Social Sciences and the Center for the Study of Put-Iic Policy in conjunction with the Domestic Policy

Association (DPA), a nation-wide net· work of colleges, libraries, churches and civic groups organized t::t bring citizens together to discuss public issues. The forum featured a panel of experts including State Representative Linda Thomas, Charles Hodde, fonner revenue director for Washington state: and Ed McMillan, former chief economist for Rainier Bank, and a former advisor to the U. S. Treasury Commission. The panel also n i cluded Norris Peterson. assistant professor of economics at PLU, and Bob Stivers, associate pro­ fes90r of religion at PLU,.

Ernie Ankrim, associate professor of economics at PLU moderated the discussion, The panel discussed the topics by briefly stating their opinions and then opening the floor to audience questions and opinions, Fay Anderson, director of special pro-

jects for the division of social sciences, said the fomm was intended to infonn people of tax issues. By hearing the views of panel member� and other citizens. she said. people can be moved from an initial judgement to a well· considered and more knowledgeable cond opinion. Over 60 people attended the forum. mostly older non-students. Prior to the tax program they were in\'ited to fill out a survey on their opinions on tax issues. At the end of the forum they filled out another survey. "That's one of the things the DPA likes to do," Anderson said. "They try to measure if people's ideas change as a result of the fomm.·· She said the results of the surveys will be analyzed by a mao jor research organization, and the resulting report will be shared with na­ tiona] policy makers in the spring. The forum was the second in a series of three scheduled this year. The next se­

National ]""ups fomm will be held Nov. 14. It is titled "The Soviets: What is the conflictaoout?" Panelists scheduled are: James Taulbee. professor of political science at Emory University: Bob Lamson. vice president of Northwest Region Business Executives for National Security: Lt. Colonel Gus Schwartz iRet.): and Cmdr. Tom Donnelly mSN-Ret.) vice president of Sixth Sense. The moderator will be Donald Farmer, professor of poitical l science at PLU. Anderson said PLU became one of the 200 members of DPA n i 1983. a year after the DPA was formed. She said the division of social sciences was looking for a way to get students t e community together to discuss �s��es� " We heard about the DPA and the community fomms," she said. They joined as a way of getting students and the communitty together.

Campus TV expands programming by Mark Reys

Mast reporter

This year PLU's on-campus television network, KFCS, has added. three new programs to its lineup, as part of an ef· fort to upgrade last year's format.. In addition to new programming, KFCS is trying to acquire a satellite dish, in hopes of improving even further the station's programming format. KFCS is a student·run news and .entertainment stat.ion. Transmitting on channel S over PLU's cable system, the station telecasts a variety of programs in conjunction with the Focus news pro­ gram, which airs for 15 minutes at 7 p.m.• repeating at 9, and 11 p.m..

There are also football, and soon basketball games aired Tuesday nights. KCCR, the student·run radio station on campus, was sharing channel S with KFCS TV until their modulator was in· stalled.. Now KCCR is at 94.5 on the FM

dial.

In addition to adding three programs to the format, KFCS General Editor An· drew Pollard said he is currently trying to acquire a satellite dish, which he said would allow the station to provide viewers with a much wider program selection. KFCS is made up primarily of volunteer!!. ani the five Focus ex·

ecut.ives, Pollard, News Director Tanya Jang, Production Manager Steve Anacker, Business Manager Deanne Addy, and Director of Promotions Heidi Bray, receive compensation for their ef· forts. All other positions are filled. on a volunteer basis.

The entire process for the completed. news program is carried. out by student crew members. The first st.ep is gather· ing information on various issues and writing the ensueing news stories, which ' are then edited. A camera crew shoots footage ap­ propriate for t.he news stories.. Video cameras filin the anchorpeople reading the stories and the previously·shot. footage is dubbed into the program. Dispite the lack of monatary compen· sation, most. staff members any theyen· joy working for Focus.

"Several thousand late nighls... · · That's how senior debater Matt Taylor sums up his last four years on PLU's debate team. "In some ways, debate is a type of sporting event. We put as much effort into it mentsUy as any other athletic team puts out physically,"' explained junior Tim Evanson. Together, Taylor and Evanson are PLU's senior debate team, competing in the championship division against other top-noLch college teams. Last week, they placed in the quarterfinals at the University of Oregon InvitationaJ Tour· nament, while two weeks age, they finished second in a tournament at Lewis and Clark College in Portland, "',. The two see t!ebate as an outlet where people get a chllnce to express their idell5. "It can get pretty exciting when aU the adrenalin is going,"" Taylor said. "Even the worst college speakers blow you away with their talent."" Evan· son pointed out. Evanson became interested n i public speaking n i 9th grade. "I gave a speech for a group caUad the Optimist Club," he recalled. "It was on ctel'ping socialism in the U.S ...you kind of had to do it on something patriotic like that." Evanson, aJong with most of the other debaters. came to PLU because of ita debate team. Many of PLU's visible alumni, including Dr. and Mrs. Rieke, were once debaters. The team is con· sistantly ono of the top 50 in the coun­ try, keeping up with tho Harvards and YaJes, althougtl PLU's debate team is funded less than those at most other colleges.

In spite of all their involvemen't and commitment, Taylor and Evanson say debate isn't accepted as a valid com· petitive activity by the rest of PLU's students.

Two PLU det>.Le.team members plac· ed in the quarterfina1.8 of the Oregon In· vitational Debate Tournament two weeks ago. Senior Matt Taylor and junior Tim Evanson were quarterrmalists in the senior championship division, and Freshman John Lapham and Dan Dan· nen made the quarterfinals in the in­ termediate division. Taylor also finished second in the senior extemporaneous speaking divi­ sion, while Evanson placedd second in communication anaJysis. Freshman Stacy Underland and sophomore Chip Upchurch were both finaJists in their respective events of oral n i terpretation and informative speaking.

Last year Taylor and former PLU stu­ dent Peter Schweizer teamed up to place second at the nationaJ Pi Kappa Delta Tournament held in Arkansaa. The en­ tire team finished 16th in the National Small Cpllege Sweepstakes. The students compete in a variety of speaking events, ncluding i debate and individual event!!, such as oral inter·

pn:tation, oratory and m i promptu speaking. During a typical debate, the team has one hour and 20 minutes to make its arguments, back them up with evidence . and refute the other team's argument!!. Each team has six preliminary rounds to try to advance to the rmaJ round. The current national college debate topic concerns whether "signirlCant government restrictions on coverage by the U.S. media of terrorist activity are justified"" The teams are divided into three cateories. "Championship" teams are those that have won eight or more trophies in previous tournamentS. The "Experienced'· division is for those with three to eight trophies. and "In· termediate" teams have won less than three events. PLU's debate team left today to com' pete in a tournament at Lower Columbia Community College in Longview, Wash.

Nurses happy with new Ramstad home Mast reporter

The lack of sufficient space in Ingram forced a certain number of claasell to meet in other buildings, which was often confusing to student!!. Mansell also said that students are DOW offered greater access to campus rtl80urt:eS sech as the library, and the UC, in addition to the department's faculty who all have offices in Ramstad.

Another nursing student, Jodi Min­ nick, also likes the building change and said that she thinks that, "when the newness wears off, they will let people eat there. I hope,". People are allowed to eat in the Writing Center, which is also carpeted. Roberta McMullen, nursing student, pointed out that there were no screens or drapes for film viawing.

Since the School of Nursing was established at PLU in 1956. the depart· ment's homl! has bounced among several buildings on campus. The ""Classroom Building" that formerly stood. where the UC now exist!!. was the first home of the Nursing Department. When this building was removed, the department moved to the lower campus Ivy building which has been recently tom down to accomodate a growing PLU. Ingram, once the "Col· lege Union Building"" ICUBI. became available once the U.C. was built. and the department has remained there until thill year. The new addition of the Rieke Science Center moved science classes to lower campus and left Ramstad to be rennovated for the School of Nursing.

Norsk students

seek friendships by Gerd·H.nne Fosen

Mast st�fI reporter

Norwegian student!! at PLU want to socialize more with Americans. They have decided to make a strong effort to change the idea that Norwegians are not . interesUd getting to know

Americans.

President of the PLU branch of the Association (or Norwegian Students Abroad IANSA-PLU), Staale Stoove1and, said i' is now possible for all students to become aasociate members of ANSA·PLU. The association wilt arrange various activities open to all PLU students. he said. The first event, scheduled for November, is a ski day at White followed by an after-ski pany in Tacoma. Stoeveland added that associate members will enjoy a considerable dis· count on all event!!. He hopes the idea of 'adopting' Americans in the association will pro­ vide an opportunity for Norwegians to meet more Americans as well as for Americans to get to know Norwegians. "We think that one of the important parts of being a student abroad is to learn something about the country you are in and make friends there, not only studying," Stoevebnd said. Stoeveland admitted that IDOst Norwegians have some American friends, but said that, "As an organiza' tion we can arTange larger social ac­ tivities and maybe also show American student!! how things are done in Norway."" The plan is to organize more than just social gatherings, he explained, referr­ ing to the ski day, "Nisseballet", and other activities planned for next semester. "It is different from having a private party to which you tend to invite only friends," Stoeveland said.

The decision to discontinue the escort service was made because of the university'S cuts in Campus Sale­ ty's budget. As a result. Campus Safety's manpower has been left shorthanded and needs every available hand to insure the safety of the campus. Of all the places to cut costs, the safety of the students should be the last thing to be sacrificed. Rather than discontinue the very valuable off cam· pus escort service, other options are available. Simply cut money from other "fat" departments on campus that could afford the minor cuts that proved critical for Campus Salety. Escort service courd be made into a work study job where

FROOT OF LUTE

Students , donns match identities by Clayton Cowl

RecenLly a friend of mine scrawled a note to me from Battle Ground High School (down in the rolling cow pies of beautiful southwest Washington). Un­ fortun ately. his message included a question about where he should lh'e once he started school at PLU. "Hey. where is the 'cool' place to live on campus." he asked. Immediately the problems started. What's "cool"? Upper or lower cam· pus? Radical dorm or Stuen? Oops! Time to give this problem some serious thought. Thinking is involved here. What makes a good dorm? Initial thoughts of a great college dorm to most high school seniors consist of II fairly nice-looking house with beer poster wallpaper nside. i brawls. parties and women, or men, {not necessarily in that order or sex). But they are rudely awakened when Mom and Dad drop them in Lheir bare cubicle in Kreidler called a room and bid a MsLy farewell before they change their minds and grab that job al Joe's SuperGrease Burgers back n i Spokane and call it a life. Things get even worse when freshmen check out the showers. It's one thing to have to put up with pink tile and fluores­ cent lights that flicker like a strobe light when you peer in the mirror to shave. but try getting shot with II blast of frozen water when the showerhead has been removed. This rather tfllgiC pr()o as probably the sole reason for blem ..... the formation of the Biconcave Chest Club which meets twice a month n i shower sLalls across the campus. Where does the poor unknowing freshman hope to live? Every dorm has its pros and cons. yet to ench resident their home is the best. Many freshmen. and even some upperclassm£'n ate swept awa\' with sterootypesof \'arious dorms.

Look ilL SLuen. Here is Il dorm thaL oozes nerds. The question that has been plaguing most of the campus is whether or not Stuen will ever have an all­ campus dance that turns ollt more peo­ ple than can be counted on two hands. The lasL attempt was reported to feature one 3S·year senior disco-dancing on the John Travolta carpet for a record four hours straight. Ordal is a great example of a dorm witl. special enthusiasm. It ·s special in that no one knows about it. Key dorm activities include painting the halls dif­ ferent color trees, chasing people away from dorm barbeques and throwing giant rolls of toilet paper down the lobby balcony during dances. Kreidler is another sorry case of the dreadful mistake made when the PLU founding fathers shoveled the fIrst lump of gravel from the rocky PLU soil-an aU·female dorm. Strange things happen in Kreidler. 1'welve new male students were reportl.."<i entering the facility and never leaving. Reliable sources say they were forced to move in for unknown reasons. Now that's scary. Hong is a dorm that no one ever hears about. The lights are on, but no one is home. Unoffical counts say Hong has the second·largest number of alcoholic paraphernalia hanging n i its windows _ next to Rainier. But Hong seems confus­ ed as to what beer to offically sponsor. 'I'taditionally. music majors were reported existing in the confines of Hong. but no one knows. Residents are never seen. Rainier is considered the lower cam­ pus dorm of upper campus. The building is filled with 120 all·male holdouts-guys that they wouldn't let stay anywhere else. The latest roster includes a few chemistry majors that got lost in a big storm. a freshman with the funniest­ looking haircut ever worn. ex-cons. drug addicts.

Letters Escort service leaves students stranded To the Editor.

NormaUy if I stay that late on campus I take my car, but this ,wening J had a friend drop me off by Harstad. Being a person who metamorphosi7.es into a studious per50n once an assib'llment is due. T felt it urgent that J visit the com· puter center. , accomplisht>d my duty just before I I p.m. It was cold. dark lind raining as I stepped ir,to Campus Safety to ask for an escort home. The person who grccted me shook her head as she asked where I lived. "127th and C," , said. "Sorry we no longer give escorts off campus. There was an article in the .. Mooring Mast. J didn't happen to read the Jl.last this week. I missed one edition and look where it left me-out in the dark. "Could someone give me a ride to at least 125th1," I asked. I found out that if I wait.cd 20 minutes I might have gotten an escort but being an impatient per50n longing for the lux· ury of sleep I decided to walk. It was the perfect night for a horror movie: the on­ ly sounds were the drumming of the rain and the rustling of the wind. Remem· brances of all the stories of attacks that have occurred in the area ran through my mind. I was no more relieved when a swerving car passed me and an obvious· Iy n i ebriated passenger opened his door and yelled either "Get out of the way." or "Do you waut a lay?" Since I was walking on the gravel I began to walk much faster.

Anger over lost mail

I made it home untouched except by the rain, thank God, but I wonder why I couldn't have made it home without any fear involved. !f I had lived on campus it would have been no problem for them. Being a person who could no longer tolerate the dorm. the food, or dorm life with its abundance of tasteless restric· tions and deficiency of privacy, I decid· ed to limit my expenditures and live off campus. I never knew by doing so ! would be limiting the privileges I previously thought innate to being a member of this university. As it is, the explicit services of Campus Safety are reserved for students coming and going within the campus sector. which. thereby largely limits it to the students who pay (the school! for on-campus room. I can understand that Campus Safety must work within a limited budget. something we all must do. Duringthe past six yeara trus university has receiv· ed almost S17.5 million in donations alone. This ia not considering the rise in both tuition and enroUment and their ef­ fects on revenue. Yet it still seema odd to me when I consider the expenditures that go into relocating leavea outside the path of those savage Lutes who would not think twice about mercilessly trampling those helpless creations of God on their way to clan. But then again, those poor leaves are living on campus. Leslie Koski

It's caUed life of the party and it takes It lot of work to keep that reputation going. There has never been silence recorded in this dorm.

It may just be animal magnetism. but there are apparently more young gentlemen in Foss than in all other dorms combined. Foss ill a big visitor atrraction since it includes Foss Ml!morial Courts and the lovely Foss Memorial Mudbowl used for interim mud·wrestLing tournaments. The problerii. is epidemic, indeed. A lot of thought aCluaUy goes into classing dorms on campus. but there's really a message for new students to any donn, or any living situation for that matter-it may not be the dorm or its location or its reputation, but the people who live there that make or break a housing situation. Stereotypes cut Like a knife. but in this case the blade needs to be put back ir. its sheath.

I was informed you wanted to be sure I wrote it. I totally agtCC. but I never received a phone call. How do you confirm a letter? It is my guess that you phoned only once, and I was not home. It is my hope that you would try again until you finally reached m•. Yes. my letter was "inflamatory" and controversial, but that's the way ' wrote it. I hope you did not make a judgement and decided not to publish my letter because of it contents. Okay. I can live with that-the letter

ooska.::y affected only one person, me. However, my second problem affects a lot of people. About two wccks ago I spoke with you about running a story in the Oct. 24 issue regurding try-ouLs for the bowling: teams I am forming in conjunction with the university. You told me that since this is not " news" I would have to write up the article myself. I took the time, wrote the article, und turned it in before your specified deudline. I did not see this artide in the paper. I don't unders· tand this. My repcner friend told me that there probably was not enough space. However, if I may be so bold, might it huve been too much to ask to cut down the sport editor's column (which happened to be a whole page last wcckl? J counted on you. and the whole university was affected due to your decision. J t is my hope you will be more con· siderate and cureful in the future. Sincerely. and truly written by Tom Jones.

Make budget cuts elsewhere Tothe Editor.

It has recently come to my attention that Campus Safety will be discontinu· ng i off-campus escort service due to "budget cuts." Aa an off-campus stu· dent I must protest this acton. It is well known that Parkland is not a very safe place to live. There have been rapes and assaults of PLU students liv­ ing off campus. There is absolutely no good reason to sacrifice the safety of our students for the sake of saving a few dollars. Is student safety such a low

priority for PLU's administration that basic escort service is cut when there are budget problems? What will they cut next time · all escorts? I would strongly encourage aU students. especially those who use or have used the escort service before or those who are concerned for the safety of people who depend on this service, to write a letter of protest to Ron Garrett. the director of Campus Safety, and send a �opy of it to PTesident Rieke·soffice.

The Knights lost 13-0. "Usually the alumni just came back (for Homecoming)." said Gloria Pederson, who attended Pacific Lutheran "College" (PLC) from 1939 to 1940.

Arts PLU gallery features first video art exhibit by Daye Howell Mas! reporter There's something new coming to PLU. nnd it·s on TV. The "Video nnd Media Arts" show. featuring works from five arlists. will .lptn in In�'fam Hall's Wekell Gallery on Sunday. The aft on display will feature or involve video in one form or another. The show is th(' h.rb<est gallery exhibi· lion of its kind in the Northwest and it's l'oming to PLU. The fin' artists showing works (It the galler)' ure Norie Salo. Gary Hill. Mark I.eonllrd. Izumi Kuroiwa, and Bill Hichie. Each of t.hem hilS chosen to use video technology to interpret reality in different ways. s..w·s "'orks will undoubtedly arouse the most comment. She constructs video " 1r s. consisting of a rectangular steel �t.and from four to silt feet tall. topped by long slivers of glass. Inside the steel shaft is a television, fllcing up, running a videotape made by the artist. a local sta· lion. or something else. The volume is turned down so vie.... -ers cannot hear what is being said. and the only way to see the picture is to look at the reflections in the glllss shards. It is m i possible to see the entire picture this w to recently displayed her work in the Seattle Art Museum: it can also be secn at the prestiJrious Linda Farris Gnllery in Seattle.

Gary Hill's work is something of a mystery. He was recommended by Sato to photography at PI-U.

B. Geller. assist..n nt professor of invil.ntion when

He accepted the

he was contacted.

However. Geller said, because she was not very familiar with Hill's work. his part ?f t�e show promises a "lot of surprzses Leonllrd and Kuroiwa are married. nnd, as a result. they have collaborated in the past. But the)' are showing their work separately !It the Wekell exhibit. Both majored in printmaking at the University of Washington. and became acquainted with video art from n i stl'\lC' tor Bill Ritchie. Leonard's work involves pulling new concepts from familiar reality. and he uses videotape as a medium of change.

"Painting is direct, from the artist's eyes to the brush, but video. like print· making. can be used as medium to modify the original image. With print· making it's a copper . . . plate. with video it's the videotape," he said.

Leonard does not consider the images on the videotape to be the completion of the work. He uses the vi(leo image as "clay" that needs to be shaped. He uses as techniques, such several photographing a television picture and working with the pbotogTllph, videotap­ ing a videotape, or using a camera to record what II television is showing. When Kuroiwa majored n i printmak· ing at the University, ahe didn't want to work with video, but she was aware of its capabilities. She began to use video as an art medium after helping Leonard videotape some artists for an educa· tional program. She likes video now because it gives her "more dimension

than prints," the ability to use move­ mentand sound. She also enjoys getting "art from II box." Possibly the most interesting person at the show is Ritchie. Last year he retired from leaching at the Univ. of Wash. he taught printmaking for 20 years. He instructed Sato, Leonard. and Kuroiwa, and confesses that he is proud of their accomplishments. "Norie W88 one of the first students that I introduced to video. A number of students, when I would bring up video as an art medium, wouJd ask me if it valid, printmaking, or significant. None just said OK We grew together Un video art), " said Ritchie.

Ritchie, himself, had his second en· counter with videotape at PLU. He was helping tape a seminar on "Artists and New Technology," and one of the artists was interviewed at PLU. It was while he was taping the video for the seminar that he became interested in the uses of the new technology. The work he will display at the gallery will be twofold. 'I'nere will be a videotape running, predominantly (perhaps only) of himself. There will also be a series of 36 computer prints of the video images, modified to varying degrees. The works are entitled "36 Views Of The Locus of Beauty" and represent the concept of beauty as something one can identify only by the trail it leaves, as opposed to the 19th century concept of beauty 8.!1 a static eUect. Ritchie said this will be his fourth or fifth show at PLU. In 1972 he did a one­ person show, and nearly ten years later he participated in a multi·artist gallery display. He also lectured on campus last January. He feels that PLU offers a good en· vironment for artists, citing the diverse art department and room given for in· dividual freedom as some of the reasons. He said that from his point of view PLU has the "longest history of supporting new ideas." Geller is enthusiastic aboutthe show. "I get really excited when I can see how artists are using new teChnology to create innovative work," she said.

The show will run from Sunday to Nov. 27. Gallery hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays. The public is invited to the exhibit opening Sunday at 6 p.m. A reception will follow.

Review: Two movies offer strange byMlke Holl

Mast reporter Searching for an off·the-wall comedy but tired of Pee Wee Herman? Then two movies. which recently opened in Tacoma. may be just the ticket. "Better Off Dead," featuring John Cusak who also appeared in "The Sure Thing" and "The Journey of Natty Gann," is funny in a weird way. "Aft« Hours," the latest black comedy from director Martin Scorcese, is just In both movies, a young male is persecuted by a mixed bag of challlcters and must overcome some tough pro­ blems. Neither film is your "run-of·the-mill" movie.

weird

humor

"After Hours" presents an "average Joe" who winds up in the downtown of a large city late at night.and begins his quest to return to suburbia.

The second flIm, "Better Oil Dead." uses every obvious trick it can to elicit laughs. including animation and gross· looking food.

Three things distinguish this movie: the ensemble cast of rising st.ars, in· c1uding Linda Fiorentino and Catherine O'Hara: the rarity of the star (Griffin Dunne) also being the produc«; , Martin Scorcese at the helm, which means almost anything could happen. "After Hours" differs from most com· edies because the audience is never quite sure whether to laugh or scream at the misfortunes befalling the main character. It'a not big on laughs, mostly

due to a cluttered plot that dwells too much on itself to flow smoothly.

Although not a perfect comedy by any means, "Better Off Dead" is still the better of the two.

to present new image this year

Wendland has spear·headed the publication's campaign to branch out beyond the actual published work to in· clude activities that encompass the non' printart..s. "We're trying to make Saxifrage more of a process than a proje<:t." said Wendland. And part of that process i� getting student..s interClIted in the creative arts. Saxifrage plans to sponsor poetry readings. arl exhibits. and tours of Seat· tie art galleries this year.

Wendland said another goal this year is to work more with students who sub­ mit their works for publication, rather than just accept or reject the piece. Anything that can be photographed or print.ed will be accepted to considera· tion in the magazine. including seulpture. Wendland hopes to receive submissions that go beyond the usual. Among other things, she is looking for "a poetic math problem" or poetry writ· ten by a foreign student to be printed in his Or her language, The official invita· tion is for poetry. prose. artwork, photographs, musical compositions. and all creative works. Some other changes in this year's publication may be a change in the shape of the maga%ine and the addition of color prints.

The first S�ifrage was created in 1975 by Megan Benton, who cUlTently lectures in PLU's English department and runs the Elliott at the univer­ s ity. Benton s i the magazine's advisor this year and she guides the ten·person staff, which includes student..s of English. graphic arts and other creative areas. Wendland, an English major with a publishing minor. said five staff members will judge each work and those chosen in this preliminary round will be forwarded to one of three independent judges in Seattle. There will be three judges in art. poE"' t·y, and prose. Students should submit their written work in triplicate and all entries may be taken to Room 220 in the Administra· tion Building. 1.200 copies of Saxifrage will be printed in early May and the issues will be available free of charge.

College enrollment planned to drop half million by 1 993

(CPS) There will be llbout 575,000 fe....er students enrolled in college by 1993, the National Center for Education Statistics predicted last week. I n its mo�t recent long·range enroll· ment forecllst, the NCES projected enrollment nationwide would fall from the current estimated 12.25 million studentg to 1 1 .68 million student na· tionwide over the next eight years. \Vhile the decline would leave II number of colleges-especially smaller four·year private colleges-gasping for students and survival. it is a much less severe enrollment drop than the NCES hilS predicted in the past. Starting in the mid'se\'enties, the

NCES ond other agencies predicted precipitous enrollment plunge!! for 1980, 1981. 1983 ond then 1988. Experts foresaw as many as 200 cui· leges closing during the 80s. The doomsday predictions stemmed from a marked decline in the number of 1S. \'ear-olds in the U.S. from 1979 to 1 9 2, CoUeges, of course. hllve always recruited most of their new students from that age category. "From that, people deduced that higher education would lose enrollment. provided the same demographic mix as we had in the early sixties, " said Elaine EI·Khawas, research director at the American Council of Education. Administrators have avoided the big drop by rt.'Cruiting huge numbers of "non·traditional students," people older than 24 who may attend school part time. "It's such a wide ag� group Inon· traditiO:lal gludentsl. It·s hard to work out a meaningful relationship between an age group that large and colle",e at· tendance," asserted Vance GranL the NCES's chief statistician. In 1980, the center projected total col· lege enrollmelll ".amld fall to a lillie more thun I I million students by 1988.

While there are now about 15 percent more "older" students in college than in 1979. thr 22·to-34·year-olds are also a much bigger percentage of the total population than they used to be.

Michael O'Keefe wrote in a recent Change magazine article. As a result, colleges really have temp­ ted only 2.6 percent more of the "non· traditional"' student age group to register, a less,thlln'speclacular n· i crease, O'Keefe said.

A woman in the front row stares at the wall in front of her while shc blocks, kicks and punches. Thcre is power in every move and it is all coordinated. A man in the back row stops and looks at the others. He has his lert leg n i a front position while the others have their left leg in back position. He swit­ ches his stand and tries again. That's beuer. Lieu checks everybody's position. He stops in front of a woman doing a high block. "Look at your hand. 15 it blocking your head?"' The woman looks up and discovers she could have been hit hard had this been a 'fight.' She lowers her hand until Lieu nods his approval. He gives the order to repeat the exercise one more time and as the woman blocks, he makes a move­ ment illustrating why the block needs to be n i a certain spot right above her head, Lieu started PLU's Tae Kwon Do Club last January after Campus Safety Director, Ron Garrett, promoted the idea. Garrett has a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and said he considers martial afl a spOrt PLU should offer,

There was a martial arts club lit PLU for several years, but it folded when the instructor enrolled at UPS, Garrett said. Garrett also pointed to the fact that there is a self-defence class at PLU, but said it is no martial art class,

Kelly Slo&n, one of the women in the club, added,"grace, power and beauty is all encompassed in Tal' Kwon Do."

Self-discipline is a very important ele­ m�nl of practicing Tae Kwon Do, said Sloan. ·'Self·discipline is what this entire thing is built on, You nee<! to discipline yourseU to concentrate and go beyond what you think are your phySical limits," she said. She believes this is necessary in order to fulfill her personal goal to strive toward 100 percent perfecton in the sport. Garrett agreed that Toe Kwon Do re­ quires personal discipline and added that self-discipline is som�lhing everybody should have. Although the number of women join· ingTac Kwon Do clubs is increasing. the sport is still male dominated. Lieu sug· gested that muny women avoid it because they huve the misconception that is a very violent sport and therefore not feminine. Sloan sllid, "There is a big difference between really losing your femininity and society thinking you lose your femininity." She does not think femininity has anytrung to do with whether a womlln practices Tile Kwon Do. Per50nully she said she does it for the art and addt.'<i.

"I wanted to see what it was like and then I liked it," she said. "'t does me good both physically and mentally. It is a good way to take out stress, and when I go home after practice I am really relaxed." The social aspect also plays a role, Habash said. "We all get to know each other really weU." After a pause she grinned and continued, "It's a good way to learn what the weak points of each perSOn , ", Lieu agreed that because of the small size of the club everybody involved knows each other well, Ideally, however. he would like to see about 20 people in the class in order to add inspiration and a little more competition to practices, Commenting on the fact that the PLU Toe Kwon Do Club is extremely modest in size, usually eight to ten people prac­ ticing on a regular basis. Garrell said it requires enormous time commitment. "Not many people do anytrung ten hours II week unless it is school spon­ sored," he said. On an international basis the interest for the sport is increasing rapidly now that Tae Kwon Do has become a recognized sport by the Olympic Committee. "In the summer Olympics in Korea in 1988, Tal' Kwon Do will be an exhibition event, and then, n i 1992, it will lpr" bablYI be an official �vent," Lieu said.

Waterworth nails three goals in Lutes 5-1 victory

by Mike Condardo Mast sports editor Here's today's trivia question: What do Dwight Gooden. Sleve Carlton, and Nolan Ryan have in common with Pacific Lutheran sports? Here's 0. hint: Special 'K: I knew you would give up. Gooden. Carlton. and Ryan are aU famous for striking out their oPPOsition, which reads on the scorecard o.s a 'K.' But whaCs that got to do with PLU? Take a look o.t this year's women's basketball (Yes, it's that time of the year againl roster. We start out with first·year coach Mary Ann Kluge. Kluge comes fresh from Idaho Stale University where she served as assistant coach for the women's basketball squad. Kluge graduated from the University of Rhode Islsnd in 1977. and received her Master'. from Oregon in 1978. She was a four·year basketball starter- (or URI, and had offers to play professional hoops for the Milwaukee Does and the New York Stars. KJuge also was a two-time AU America softball player. and she played profeMionaily for the Buffalo Breski's. She served as assi!Lant basketball coach at Idaho State from 1981·85, and now she has taken over the reigns from Kathy Hemion, who resigned following the close of the Lutes dismal 1·24 season last year. Not only did Kluge bring some sound coaching background with her. but some of the players she was in contact with at ISU followed her to the confines of Parkland. Adding to the Kluge K-Korps is a pair of 6·2 junior•. twin towers Kerri and Kristy Kom of Kalispell Ino pun intend· ed). Montana.

The Lutes will get their first test of t� season when they travel to UPS Nov. 26 for a 7 p.m. tipoff with the Log, gers, followed by a Dec. 3 meeting with the Vikings at Western Washington University, and then playing Central Washington Dec. 6. before returning home Dec. 14 to play a 3 p.m. game with Willamette in the freindly confines of Memorial Gymnssium.

A correction from last week's "Sport· swrap": If the polls were have to ended last week. PLU would not receive then automatic regional bid for Region I as Azusa Pacific remains undefeated and is ranked No. 3 in this week's poll, ahead of the Lutes. If the Lute5 are to receive the automatic regional bid, PLU must re­ main undefeated and Azu!'la Pacific must pick up a loss within their next three games. AP's opponents: at San Diego, San Francisco State. and Califor­ nia Lutheran.

If that wasn't enough to mess up up a typewriter's 'K' key. try Kris Kallesud. the 5·10 junior who scored 419 points: for the Lutes last season, which i! a school record.

A lwO'alarm fire caused approximate­ ly 5150,000 in damage to the Parkland Piggly Wiggly supermarket on Monday afternoon, said Gary Hauenstein, assis­ tant fire chief for the Parkland Fire Department. Quick rcuctions by the Parkland Fire Department "saved the b'TOCery store from being destroyed." said Fire In­ \'cstigutor Floyd Keller of the Pierce County Office of Fire Prevention 8nd ArSQn Control. "When a fire breaks out in II super market, �here usually isn'� much left to rebuild, " Keller said, explaining that na· tion wide, firefighters haven't had much luck in containing blllzes in grocery stores. "The Parkland Fire Department should be commended for its fast ac Lions," Keller said.

"We're certam it could havc been , worse, . Hauenstein snid. "There was cerwinly a big potential for u bigger fire. It wouldn't have been IInothcr minute or ,the whole back room would have been gone "

The blaze broke out Monday after· noon, with a 4:05 p,m, atann calling fire engines and firefighters from Parkland, Spanaway, Summit, Lakewood and Tacoma. When firefighters arrived on the scene there wcre flames in the storage room iLL the south end of the store and the entire building was filled with smoke, Hauens· tein snid. The store had been evacuated by store employees when firefighters arrived. There were no injuries rcsulting from the blaze, Hauenstein said, Keller estimated damage at S50,000. Hauenstein said S15,000 to 520,000 of the damnge was structural. the rest was in smoke damage to perishable goods, Hauenstein said. The structural damage was contained to a portion of the store's south wall nnd the south portion of the roof, "If you were to go in the store, you wouldn't have known it (the fire) had hnppened except for the smell of smoke and a few empty shelves, " HAuenstein said. The fire's cause is still under in· vestigation by the Pierce County office of Fire Prevention and Arson Control.

Keller said "natural causes" such as problems with electrical and heating systems have been ruled out. Human error is the suspected cause, Keller said. " We feel at this point it is an acciden· tal fire," Keller said.

Campus· Poor study habits cause for low grades by Emily Morgan Mast reporter Students discouraged by midterm grades may be suffering from the effects of poor study habits. But Rick Seeger. PLU's director of adviSing. believes it is never too late to learn how to study. Seeger said there are tWI.'(! sets of necessary skills that enable students to do well in coUege. These include: 11 background skills treading. writing, and math abilities); 21 study skills [understanding study techniques. note taking. and exam preparationl; and 31 self management lability to prioritize and budget time wiselyl.

Seeger said motivation s i essential to the study process. If this is a problem. the student should evaluate why he or she ha.s chosen t.o attend college. Is the student here to please the family or to remain with friends? How does the stu· dent prioritize his or her values? The studying atmosphere is also an important consideration. said Seeger. "The best place to study is where you can do nothing else," he said. PLU student Lynn Smith believes that making a study area barren. "like a monk's celL" using earplugs. and taking practice tests with a time limit are all very helpful. Student Tina McKin1ey said that tur­ ning orr all the lights in a room except for the one over the desk helps 1.0 keep attention focused on books.

Seeger suggests finding a place wnere your friends aren't likely t.o find you. If you do get interrupted. leave your study area and talk elsewhere. This way you distinctly separate where you study and where you socializ.e. Student Stein Nielsen SUgge9�S get· ting off campus for 0 change. He gOC8 to Dash Point Park to study in the car with the radio on. "If students are having trouble. the (Academic Advising Center) should be their first resource." 9aid Seeger. The Academic Advising Center, located on the bott.om noor of Ramstad, provides tutors, pamphlets. and counseling for students. A general study method is available, as are papers on eiam preparation, the

differences between objective and essay exams, time management, and how to mark your textbookS. The Academic Advising Center �gan in a small library room in 1973. Today it consists of 17 student tul.ors, two pro­ fessional staff members, an ad· ministrative assistant, and a recep­ tionist. Last year there were 1,000 ap· pointments made for advice and counci L 2,500 students were tutored, along with walk-ins who sought pamphlet information. A cla.ss designed to help students with their study habits is offered during the first six weeks of every semester" for one credit. Five sections were offered this semester to accommodate about 90 students.

Outdoor Rec uses new eq u ipment, ideas to attract students

by Katha rine Hedland Mast staff reporter

New equipment and new ideas will be used t.o attract more people to activities sponsored by ASPLU's Outdoor Recrea­ tion Committee, said Mark Cook.sley, the committee's co-chair. Outdoor Rac plans outings for students to discover the natural beauty of the Northwest, said Cook.sley. Already this year, hikes were taken in areas such as the Olympic Mountains,

Mount Rainier. and

rafted

dl)wn the Skykomish Rjver at the base of the Cascades. Mid·semester break also gave six students the opportunity to spend the weekend in Port Angeles. "It wasn't really that well attended." said Cooksley. "but it was an awesome trip." The group stayed at a beach cabin near Hurricane Ridge on the Olympic Peninsula. This trip was the most expen· sive, so far. Cooksley said. The cost for food. lodging. and transportation was 525 per person. Cooksley said Outdoor Rec provides plenty of interesting trips, and said he wishes more students would take the time t.o try some of them. "We're getting a lot of returners, but we'd like new people. too. We want pe0ple who haven't come n i contact with the committee before tojoin," he said. Cooksley explained that most of the outings are geared toward beginners or those with litUe experience, and he en· couraged aU to participate. He added that most of their day trips, particularly hiking or skiing, cost from $4 to '6. Included among Outdoor Rec's up­ coming activities, hi a new activity call·

ed Orienteering. Cooksley said. This is the art of "route finding, using a rom­ pa89, and finding your way," he explained. "We're very excited about this," said Cooksley. . Outdoor Roc member Kaj Fjelstad . "Everyone should definitely try out orienteering. " The fl1'St meeting for this new activity w Saturday, from 1 p.m. t.o 4 p.m. at Fort Steilacoom Coinmunity College. . . Cooksley said this will be an "informal introductory se9sion." He said the group plans to make an at· tempt to compete in an orienteering meet sponsored by the Northwest Regional Orienteering Club on Nov. l'r. Other upcoming activities include a snow "play day" on Sullday at Mount Rainier National Park. Students will gather with inner tubes and cross coun· .. try 9kis and "have a party in the 3no.,,-. A snow9hoeing trip is scheduled for Nov. 16 and various ski trips will occur all semester as well as every weekend during Interim. Outdoor Rec has existed for 12 year9. " It started out with a bunch of people who were intere9ted in getting together t.o ski and being able to rent equip­ ment," Cooksley explained. Now the office is capable of equipping anyone for an outdoor eJ:pedition. This year the group purehased a dozen new pairs of Rosignol cross country skis. "We rent just about t:verything for tbe outdoor8 except bikes," Cooksley said. "People who have been on the trips have fun. Lots of people hear about them but never come and they should. It's a good time," said Fjelstad.

''It'8 one of those that people don't seem to be taking advantage of on cam' pus. The majority of the campus is not involved and that's the whole purpose of it," Cooksley 9aid. "Besides, the Nor­ thwest is world renown for its outdoor8 and people should be taking advantage

of it. At other schools their outdoor p� grams are just nourishing." Inter-ested student.a nuIIy attend Out­ door Roc meetings' on 1\!.esdays at 6 p.m. in UC 128 or call the Games Room at exten9ion 4013 during Outdoor Roc office hours, 6 p.m. to 7 p.m. eVery night.

Hours added to Ramstad com puter user room by Lance Kuykandan Mast staff reporter �omputer students can bang away at their keyboards for an extra two hours a night thanks t.o new hours in the Ramstad computer userroom. Howard Bandy. dean for computing, said the hours were changed last week in response to requests to keep the user' room open Later. The Ramstad room s i now open from 8 a.m. to 2 a.m. The Memorial Gym userroom hours will con· tinue to be open from 6 a.m. to midnight. "We got requests in reasonable and sufficient quantity, BIUldy said. to justify shifting the hours. "Some of the pro fessors got re­ Quests." Band\' said.

Consultant.a in the user :-oems also relayed students' requests for later hours. The desire for different hours was brought to Bandy's ottention by stu­ dent members of the computer advisory committee. Band}' said the COllll }uter center has bc!,'Un collecting data indicating when dcnlllOd for tl'rminals is heuviest. They

plan to complete the study in several weeks and wiU be publishing the results in the computer center newsletter and the campus bulletin. The results will al90 be P09ted in both user rooms so students will be able to avoid peak use hours. The results wiU help students deter· minf: when terminals are most likely to btl :\vuiluhlc. Bundy said.

Bandy said the computer cente:- has begun getting resulte from the study already, and has found that the heaviest use i8 in the early afternoons until din­ nertime. "Use is li&ht in the mornings," he said. "People might try the mOming hours if they have the time free." In past years the computer userroom was open 24 hours a day. The hOur8 were cut this year because PLU didn't have the re.3urces to 8tay open around the clock, Bandy said. At the 88me time the number of termin8ls were increased ond another usefToom was opened. An hourly usc charge is also being en­ forced for the first time this year. Students arc charb'Cc $1.25 an hour for using VAX terminals. and 75 cents an hour for th� IIJ�I l'er9Onui Computers.

Foreign students learn English, gain American experience by Katherine Hedland Mast stall reporter

Bader AI·qabandi plans to study police science and security sometime in his future. At age 26 he decided to fur· thur his educaticn in America. AI.qabandi is just one of 50 foreit:n student.!! currently studying English at PI.U. Through the Intensive English Language Institute UELII, these students learn English lind gllin skills that will enable them to attend and do well in American universities. "It's basically geared toward English for academic use," said IELI director Tom Magc. In four clllSseS reading. writing, speaking, and listening comprehension, students learn the basics such as note Ulking, lecture preparation. and how to write research papers. Every class has three levels: beginn· ing, n i termediate. and advanced. Students that go through the entire pro­ gram here will usually ,pend three semesters-fall, spring, and .!!ummer. To better serve .!!tudent.s ' individual needs, Mage explained there ill a split·level idea.

In addition to meeting academic needs. the Institute attempts to get foreign students :nvolved in activities on and off campus. IELI plans field trips, sets students up with converso· tion partners. and gives them 0 variety of living situations from which to chose. IELI encourages most foreign students to live either in a residence hall with an American roommate. or with an American host family, Mage said. "In dorms they can get involved with other students. and host families often take students in as if they were a son or daughter, developing excellent reiation· ships." he said. He added that they usuaUy will discourage students from the same country from living together. as it becomes too euy to speak their own

Univ Congregat ion holds 30th an n iversary service by Oerd·Hanne Fosen

Mast staft reporter

A number of students attending last Sunday's II a.m. University Congrega· tion service in Chris Knut.ten Hall seem· ed surprised w find the room already filled and the service approaching an end. They had either forgotten or did not know that all campus servicC!l had been combined for the 30th anniversary celebration University the of Congregation. John Larsgaard, university pastor at PLU from 1958 to 1969, chose "Do You Remember?" as his theme for the ser· vice. He reminisced about the years when he was at PLU. A number of alumni and former 'PLU employees in the congregation nodded, acknowledging the memories. For students it was a chance to learn what their congregation was like 30 years ago. Following the service a brunch was at· Lended by about 60 people. most of whom were alumni. Jackie Jensen Clark, the author of "Remembering. Celebrlltion and Hop­ ing, A History of the PLU Congregl!.­ tion," gave a speech bllsed on the con­ tent of her book whilt! Brent Uample. president of the congregation. spoke ou the congregation today and its hopes for the future_ Milton Nesvig. Vice l:>resident Emeritus at PLU. is one of the few who

has had the opportunity to follow the development of the University Con­ gregation from its start in 1955 to today. "It has been a vital factor in the life of the u niversity right from the beginn· ing," he said. He pointed out that PLU emphasizes education n i a Christian contell;t. He said the university congregation has "set a tone for the school and shows that we care about the spiritual welfare of the students." Attendance at the University Con· gregation has nuctuated from year to year, said Ne.!!vig. " I t kind of catches on. Sometimes be­ ing nvolved i with the congregation becomes the'in' thing to do." he said. He added that over a period of many years. it has been pretty stable. Nesvig believes that Christians should be living their Christianity every day and that this is what the University Congregation is all about_ "It is OK to go to church." he said, "but if you don't live what you hear and preach, it loses its emphasis_ " He quoted this suying to underline his point. "Your action speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you are saying." Current University Pastor Iton Tellef· son said the University Congregation is the most significant COnb'Tegation in this region. referring to ·.he fact that it has produced a Inrb"C number of pastors. music leaders. and other church leaders.

languli�. Students at IELI come from all over the world and for all different kinds of rea50ns. This semester there are 27 men and 23 women enrolled n i the progrlOm. The majority come from Japan. Many Malaysian students also attend PLU, t:lOd there are student.s from Kuwait and Zaire. AI.qabandi comes from Kuwait. He camll to America to study after being out of high school and working for seven years. The adjustment has been dif· ficult. he said. but his education is very important to him. "Suddenly I decided I wanted to con· my education. I dropped tinue everything to come to school. It's the goal of my life," he said. Kotoyo Yamamoto, 20. is from Japan. She has been at PLU for four months and will complete the advanced level this semester. She commented on the differences between universities here. and in Japan. "CoJlege is different here than in my

country. In Japan. it is very hard to enter a university. but very easy to l,'Taduate. Here it is difficult to get through the work of college." she said. BC(:ause of trull, IIhe believes she will ret:eive a better education in America. She plplUl to attend PLU for at leut two more years and study history and com· munication arts. When students complete the program, they are equipped with skills to help them at any college. While many stay on at PLU, others transfer to other schools to see different parts of the country or save some money. Both AI·qabandi and Yamamoto expressed their difficulties. Yamamoto said she "still gets confused when peopie talk fast," and Al.qabandi. l ike the majority of students, according to Mage, has the most difficult time w ith writing. Both praised �heir instructors and the program. "They're fine teachers. They always help you," Yamamotocommentcd, JELl is administered by an umbrella organization.

Mannelly handles sexual harrassrnent cases by Carla T. Savalll

Mast staff reporter

Nearly all of the sexual harassment complaints heard at PLU are handled in· formally, according to administrative grievance officer Kathy Mannelly. Speaking at Friday 's Brown Bag lun· cheon. Mannelly said 98 percent of the complaints heard each year do not in· volve formal grievantes. One formal grievance was filed by a student against a sUlf{ employee last year, but Mannelly declined to give details. Mannelly handles all complaints level· ed against non·faculty PL.U empluyees. lUck Seeger, director of Academic Ad· vising, and Judy Carr, associate dean for special academic prOb'Tams, are the academic gric\'lInce officers in chllrl,"C of complaintsngainst faculty. �Iannelly said she is ohen the person students go to when they do not know

what else to do. "I listen to what a person has to say and determine ""hether it's a complaint they feel better talking about or whether they want to press charges." she said. PLU's revised sexual harassment policy for students sUites "harassment s i a form of misconduct that violates the integrity of human relationships." Sex­ ual harassment is characterized as inap­ propriate personal or sexually-oriented attention by anyone who is in a position to determine a student's grade or other· wise adversely affect the student's academic performance. The current policy was revised by the Student Life Executive Committee last year because there was not enough Stu· dent emphasi.!!, she said. The original policy was an adaptation of PLU's employer'lllT'ployee sexual harassment policy. "We spent II lot of Lime on ter· minology. What kind of gestures con· stitute harassment and so on. It was

basically a brainstorming exercise. Vice President for Student Life Mary Lou Fenili put it into understandable ter· minology that we all reviewed and com' mented on," she said. The policy was printed n i to the Stu· dent Handbook for the first time this year becllUse it was not a well known policy and students needed to know about it, Mannelly said. Two students have been involved in hllrassment cases in the last eight years, said the faculty member n i volved in the two students' counseling. One incident was handled formally. the other infor· mally through a letter of reprimand and conversation. Both involved PLU facul· ty and neither was fired, she said. "I'm not aware of any cases invol\'ed with a grievance which have resulted in a firing. Some critics of our system would say we're too forgiving. It's more imporlunt to teoch new standards of bcha\'ior. Legal repercussions aren't enough .0 keep standards ups." suid

Another session is planned but no date has been set. Out· side consulUints presented the informa· tion which O'Conner thought was quite good, although she had heard it before.

Semrau given Senior Econ award Community college students just as dependent on aid College Press Service Contrary to popular belief. communi­ ty college students an: as dependent on financial aid as their counterparts at four-year institutions. a recently releu· ed survey indicates. The survey, conducted by the United States Student Association (USSAI, shows that about 30 percent of com' munity college students say they would be forced to drop out of school if they didn't have financial aid. Because costs are lower at two-year schools. many state and federal lowmokers assume fi",,"cial oid is not as important to community college students. But the report's authors say that because community colJege students have less income, they are as dependent on financial aid as students attending

more eltp<lnsive four-year schools. USSA legislative director Kathy Orer says the survey results will be used in the group's federal lobbying effort, and as part of the plans to eltpand organi�· ing acth-ity on the nation's 1,300 com· munity college campuses. " The results of the survey didn't sur· prise us, but we are encouragNf by the extent to which community student say they want to get involved more," Ozer says. "A lot of people told us this is the first time anyone had asked them what they thought about higher education issues. " The survey, funded by about $40,000 in grants from the College Board, the Ford Foundation and the American Col· lege Testing Service, is based on the views of about 100 community colJege students who testified at five hearings USSA held last year.

Garrett said he does not know where the money to support the program wilJ come from. Perry Hendricks, vice president for Finance and Operations, is currently studying the university budget to det.ermine where the additional funding will come from. Garrett said. Although for the time being off-campus escort.s are being reinstated, Gar­ �ett said the service is still under study. He said Cnmpus Sorety will be receiv. 109 packets on escort programs from over 400 universities, and that will be correlated for the J nternational Association of Campus Law Enforcement Ad. �inistratim. This information, along with Campus Safety's statistics concer­ mng PLU �s escorts illst year. will be used toevaluatethe program. Garrett said PLU is in a real minority of schools that provide students with off.eampus escorts. ?lore than 90 percent that do are public schools, he said. Verr few private schools will do so because they do not wont to den! with the liabIlity, he said. Garrett said he is seeking funds to provide the service for the rest of this year, adding that "nothing at this university is set in stone."

by Emily Morgan Mast reporter Pam Semrau was recently recognized as this year's winner of the Senior Award n i Economics. Semrau, a senior at PLU, attributes her 3.96 grade point average to "keep' ing busy, along with a lot of faith in God." "This may sound funny," she said, "but I think being really involved has helped." Semrau has played 0:1 the PLU women's soccer team for four years. She

has also worked with a Lutheran church youth group in Puyallup. She said that being busy in athletics has carried over into her academics. forcing her to budget her time and increase her desire to do things well. The Senior Award in Economics is given to the PLU economics major with the highest grade point average after three years. She decided to attend PLU ftfter ap­ Western Whitman, plying to Washington University, and Seattle Pacific University. She originally plann. ed to major in mathematics.

Provost's son dies of pneumonia William K. Jungkuntz, 30, son of PLU Provost Richllrd Jungkuntz, died Tues­ day in New Y ork of complications from bacterial pneumonia. The younger Jungkuntz graduated summa cum laude from PLU n i 1917 with a bachelor of arts degree in music.

Retired PLU profs pass away on same day

Two of PLU's retired professors died on the same day last month. Arnold Hagen, an education profeS90r emeritus and Olaf Jordahl, a phyaics professor emeritus, both passed. away on Oct. 20. Hagen was 79 years old at the time of death. Born in Elbow Lake, Minnesota, Hagen earned a bachelor's degree from Concordia College n i Moorhead, Min­ nesota in 1931, a Master's degree from the University of Montana in 1941 and a doctors degree from the University of Oregon in 1955. Hagen was a member of the PLU education faculty from 1955 until his retirement in 1971. Survivors include his wife, Eva, sons Ardy of San Francisco and Frank of Los Angeles, one grandson, two sisters. and four brothers. Jordahl died at the age of 83. Born in

Sioux Falls, South Dakota, he earned a bachelor's degree from Luther College in Decorah, Ia. in 1935, a masler's degree from the University of Pittsburg in 1927 and an Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin in 1933. In 1940 be became PLU's first full­ time physics professor, serving until h.is retirement in 1969. Jordahl took a leave of absence for a year in 1944-45 to work on the Atomic Ene:gy Commission's Manhattan Project. A faculty research laboratory in the Rieke Sc ience Center is named in his honor. Survivors include h is wife, Catherine, Sons Eric of Portland, Ore. and Peter of Austin, Tex., four brothers, two sisters and five grandchildren.

AU RA gives college credit for real world experiences by Carla T. Savalll

Mast stall reporter

When the idea of granting college credit for prior non·academic learning was sugt,'1lsted at PLU in the late 70s, Rick Seeger, then director of the Lear­ nign Center, WD!l taken back. "It's rl;!ally a rather radical idea for PLU." He said. "PLU s i not really a radical instiLUtion academically." Nevertheless, seven years later. the Undergraduate Re-entry for Adults Pr0gram (AURA) is showing no sign of fail· ing interest. In fnct. Seeger, now direc­ tor for AURA and the Academic Advis' ing Center, said there are ot least a halfdozen students waiting to enter in the fall. The program is open to anyone 30 years of age or older who has not been enrolled in a baccalaureate degree pro­ gram within the last five years. The pro­ gram works beu, he said. for people who have had one year or less of college experience. AURA students can 5eCk advanced placement up to junior standing. They are granted a one-year provisional ad· mission and must complete a minimum of 12 credits with a grade point average of2.50r higher. They are required. to design a portfolio of essays and biographical information illustrating the non·academic learning they have acquired. Seeger said the portfolio is a "learning autobiography" in which the students highlight their in­ volvement in work, family, church and community. The portfolios are initiated in Psychology 401. Roots to Adult Lear­ ning. AURA students have one year to complete them. From a rotating faculty committee. three faculty members who best repra­ lICnt the academic interest areas of the AURA students are picked to review the portfolios and evaJuate the prior learning ellperiences for college credit. The faculty must reach consensus on the number of credits awarded and number of general university ra­ quiremf'.nts waived. Seeger said AURA students arc re­ quired to complete 128 semester hours for graduation like all other students. However, they pick up a portion of those hours outside the classroom. A max· imum of 38 credits can be granted for prior learning, he said, and they are transcripted as general elective credits. AURA students must still complete all requirements for a major or minor, "same as any other student." Seeger said. The success of the program direcUy relates to its lIClectivity, Seeger said. There is an enrollment limit of 15 students per semester. "There are enough adults in midlife who want to go hack to college but the selectivity has paid of(. Ask teachers here what they think of the AURA stu­ dent," he said. Robert Stivers. religion professor. said that although no one ever identifies himself as an AURA student. he can say generally that the program "turns out really excellent students." Stivers said he is not as familiar with the program as he was six years ago when he was closely n i volved with it.

"I haven't been a s n i volved with it since the last time I went on sabbatical, but I'm tickled pink with the students we get. It adds a dimension of maturity to the classroom, I can generally say that older women as a whole almost uniformally make excellent IItudents becaUllC they have such a de.!lire to learn," he said. Seeger said AURA 9tudenl.S pay a fee for their portfolio assessments which covers the CO.!lt of the program. "If it stays small, we can do it welL From the beginning there's been a feel­ ing that this program should be a special program fOf special people, I don't think it would be a good idea if PLU were to go wholesale in granting credit for prior learning. PLU has work­ ed hard to build a strong academic in­ stit1..!tion with accreditation," he said. The program was initially funded through a three-year federaJ grant, Fund for the Improvement of Post Secondary Education. The gTant, available from 1976 to 1979, also funded the Middle College, Project Advance, Cooperative Education and Global Studies p� gTamS. After 1979, the funding was in­ t.emaliu!d and PLU began paying for AURA and the other programs. which stilleJt1st. Seeger said about 75 percent of the entering AURA students say they want busineS! degrees but over half change their minds before they graduate. The majority of students are women. The motivaiton behind returning to school usually comes from withln, he said Many have raised families and sud· denJy have time on their hands. Others planned to go to college but interrupted those drums to raise families and are just now getting around to their goals. Seeger said there are AURA students who attend PLU with their undergnlduate children. "Most are in college for intrinsic reasons. They have no motivational p� blems," he said.

6 .!he Mast, November " , 1985

Viewpoints Editorial

Within the past couple weeks the PLU community has seen a rash of thefts of student possessions from dorm rooms, tounges, and outside cafeterias. Yet, it Is student irresponsibility that is the chief cause for most of the thefts. Stereos, TV's, and computers worth thOusands of dollars are kepi In dorm rooms, yet st .,--4enls go entire weeks without ever tacking their doors to properly secure their rooms. Students teave backpacks filled with expensive tex· tbooks, compact tape players, and wallets with credit cards lying around the floor i n Iront of the cafeteria as il they were the morning trash. Since students cannot lake their backpacks into the cafeteria and have little other choice than to leave Ihem unattended outside, one suggestion is that the university establish a checkroom in one of the UC rooms outside the cafeteria entrance where students can check their belongings and be assured of their safety. The position could be a work study job thai work to benefit both students and the university. "Ninety percent of all thefts are caused by the owner simply not taking the proper precautions," said �on Garrett, director of Campus Safety. Unlocked cardoors result in rapes from someone hiding in the backseat. A door left open Invites anyone to wander in and take whatever he desires. We in the PLU community believe too often that we are living under the 'Lute Dome'; all protected, all safe. We leave our doors open day and night. We leave our possessions unsupervised for hours, and expect them to be there when we decide to return. In reality, PLU Is an open campus and anyone can choose 10 wander through the dorms and buildings. The campus is actually located in an area with one of the highest rape and burglary rates in Ihe state. Students are lucky Ihat more has not been stolen. Anywhere else in the world, we would take the care to lock up our bikes or bolt our doors. Why Is it that when we get to PLU we think that crime will not affect us? If only we would not be so naive and make the effort to lock our doors and keep an eye on our possessions, we would have far fewer things stolen.

Students, proper English not best of partners

by Clay10n Cowl

Tragic, but true. it came like a shot out of the dark and hit me hard as a rock. Colder than a mackerel. Stiffer than a board. J was suddenly a victim of what near· ly every college student contract.s at cer· tain point.s in rus or her life-destruction of the English language. It's scary. It looked like another tragic case of bhlbimosis, the term for the latest college craze. Though we try hard not to admit it, we are easy prey for new slang words or, worse yet, worn out. bellt up. mutilated. stamped on and stretched out cliches be­ ing slung at us from every direction. Uow many times do you find yourself repeating a canned phrase over and o\'er- iJne you would trunk would be ab o solutely moronic if you knew whal you were actually communicating? Take for instance. the average passing conversation. "Hi Jerryr· '·Ui Christine!·· . . . " How are you doing?". .·'Oh. just line.·· . . . then walk away. Do you ever trunk about what you are saying? You would feel terrible by say· ing you are just fine when in reality you fell out of your loft and ran late to class wearing two different socks and your shirt on backwards. .. But if you ever screamed out, No! I'm not fine! I'm having a TERRIBLE day! I got my jagging sweat.s stuck in the .....asher and my sister is going out with the star of 'Revenge of the Nerds". you would simply be written off as a manic depressant. a grouch or just un· sociable lor all three).

But a passing conversation gets away with everytrung. There's a new string of coined words in the hearts and minds of PLU students. . How about the classic word "sweet. , The word has taken on a whole new meaning since Webster first put it in rus dictionary. Now the word is used in every form of the English language. "How did you do on your test, Joe?" ··Sweet, man. Sweet,'· ·'That WIiS sooo sweet to have real let· luce at lunch today." There are other linguistic master· pieces, including ··toast: ecore," '· gorfball, · · and ·· whipped.·· Most people can score booalS, hoops or points, but scoring on women? It gels even worse. Several research teams are currently working in unison at Harvard and Cal tech trying to determine exactly what a ··gorfball" is, but early reports confirm it's something be:woon II Lute �a neosac· charine galvoslab with gold horns) and a baseball with it.s outer skin ripped off. Invariably, girls and guys are ··wrup­ ped" by each other. To most parent.s and people from the 'old school,· it sounds a little violent, but the blabimosis bug strikes in nem-Iy every situation. The problems of blabimosis are multiplying daily. Someday a bright young college graduate will donate rumself to science and find a vaccine to stop AIDS and blabimosis all in one shot. But until then, we just have to endure. So, it's time to hit the road. Take off. Boogie. Later on. Catch ya.

Veteran'S Day time to pause, remember by Gregg SmUh

Today is a special day on our nation·s """"'. On this day, we will pause to honor the veterans of all wan and pay tribute to those who won our independence and guarded our freedom for the past 200 years. During that time, more than 40 million Americans shouldered arms to provide for our national security. Today, the 24 million living veterans and their families ' plus the living dependents of deceased veterans · number about one­ half of our population. Many of us see Veteran!! Day as just another day for lpeeche.s. music, and parades. But it is more than a time for celebration. It s i an opportunity for Americans to honor the vetersn's memory and to rededicate ourselves to the cause of freedom. We owe our veterans respect and gratitude. They have earned it by their patriotism, courage, and sacrifice. This feeling about the American veteran has been shared by most Americana since the early days of our Republic.

American veteran.s are members of a patriotic group. They liave proved in the most concrete terms their love of Coun· try. They have .sacrificed time, energies, health, and life that we all might enjoy the blessing of liberty. Tribute to our veterans has a deeper significance than a mere upression of gratitude for a job

COMMENTARY well done. We cannot discharge our .solemn obligatioD to them and their comrades with mere words of homage. George Washington lpoke up for the veterans of the American Revolution in these words: "We mUlt give gratitude to men who have rescued UI from the jaws of danger and brought UI to the honor of Independence and Peace." The meaning of the first Armistice Anniversary was broadened n i 1954, after World War II and the Korean War had demanded additional service and sacrifice, when President Eisenhower redesignated Annistice Day as Veterans Day to honor the veterans of our wars.

They are heirs to a proud trodition of the 40 signatories of the Constitution, 23 of whom served in the Army. Twelve were members of the militia, and 11 had served in the Continental Line. Yet they vested :.n the Congress of the United States the power to raise armies and provide a navy, to declare war, and to levy taxes. Those 23 men proceeded to hold multiple offices · II served in the Senate; seven served in the House, one became Speaker; two becameCabinet of· ficers; four became ministera for foreign countries; eight became judges; eight became governors; and of course, Genera] Washington became President of �he Unit.ed States.

ly to a.ssess its accomplishments of the past, but also to determine its duties and respon.sibilities of today and of the future. It is therefore fitting that we honor our veterans today for their efforts in preserving and upholding America's ideals. In doing so, we eXpress apprecia.· tion for the great achievementa of the past. Beyond that. however, we rededicate ourselves, renewing our strength to meet successfully any re­ quirements: which lie before us.

We could not in honor stand here to merely say thanks and nothing more. We now enjoy liberties that our veter-ana fought to pruerve. In return, we must fight as valiantly as our veterans did to ensure these same blessings for our posterity.

Thus, Veterans Day 1985 is not only a commemoration of the past, but a pledge for the future '"' we work together in the caU8e of world peace. In pursuit of this goal. the nation has to pay the price for freedom and security. There are burdens which must be borne, but Americans bave Willingly borne them before · and they will not flinch from the task now.

So, in a eense, Veterans Day affords the entire nation an opportunity not on·

Letters School of Business scheduling policy questioned To the Editor

Thanks again must go to certain in· dividuals in the business department for anticipating ,he academic needs o( the students in regards to the interim scheduling of Business Policy IDA 455). Again this year SA 455 land its equivalent BA 4561 are very popular classes for us business students to enroll in during Interim. This year's expected enrollment in these classes was to at least approach 90·100 students. But yet the business 'department only scheduled one class of BA 455 and one class of BA 456, with the student enrollment limit being 24 in each class. So. what to do next? Well, if you follow the business department's business policy, then you "weed out" the students who haven't met the prerequisites of SA 455. As it turns out in my case, they did this, and said that I hadn't met my math require­ ment (which wss incorrect). So, 10 and behold, I'm not eligible for BA 455. Pointing this error out after receiving my tally card, I was told that this pro­ blem was probably the registrar's fault (which it wasn't). Additionally, I was told that even though a mistake had been made, that I was out of luck n i regards to getting into the more convenient SA 456. Instead, I was allowed to sign up for another hBstily added SA 455 class that will probably be taught three nights a w�ek dUring Interim lagain thinking of the students' needs). What is even more shocking is the fact that I personally talked to at least three other students who hBd this same thing happen to them. They were declared ineligible for BA 455 wrongfully. It really mtokes one wonder whether these mistakes were in· tentional or accidental. I would think accidental-but what does this say about our business administrators' com' computer's lor petence their competence)?? Of course. it may be pointed out that this .....eeding out process may have caught a few students who didn't possess the prerequisites of BA 455, but this simply cannot justify the erron that ....ere . made-errors that are seeming· ly made on a great number of tally cards each semester. F'or now, what I ....ould . sugge!t is that either the business department add more policy clnss(es) during Interim, bcclluse they knew well aheud of time this year thut o\'er-crowding was going to occur. or liS !l friend of Illine sug·

gested. maybe they should just hand out tally cards to everyone who is n'ght(ully eligible for BA 455. and then let their registration times decide who gets n i to clas:<!. At least this way the process is (air and equitable (by credit hours com· pleted). I mean, who knows how many other students were carelessly bumped out ofclass by some computer mistake. I know that, mo.st likely, a number of rea.sons will surface as to why the business department can se either of my aforementioned ideas, but there is no way that number can exceed the number of students who feel "wronged."

u.s. aggression wrong in Central America To the EdItor

This letter is n i regard to this week's Central America Awareness Campaign. The proponents claim that the massive human rights violations in Centra1 America outweigh the presence of a Soviet threat in the region.

However, wilen one consuJers the 210 million victims of Soviet extermination

Burglars hit off-campus homes Student vents feelings over stolen backpack by Kristi ThC'rndike Projects editor

I ( was the beb-inning ofanother week,

The cinnamon and peanut buller toast and a second cup of coffee got me ready to start the day, I placed my breakfast tray on the conveyor belt and pushed th rough the heavy doors leaving the Commons, My watch read 7:55. Class would swrt in five minutes. I /,"Tabbed my black wool coat and thruSl my arms into the 5Iee\'es, The rain was lightly falling. Luckily I'd remembered my umbrella. I reached for my backpack. A jolt of panic shot through me. My pack was gone. O,K., so who's playing the joke? I glanced around looking for the wiseguy who took my pack. Sleepy students were rushing to their " S o'c1ocks." None of them looked in the mood to play 8 joke. This was a stupid gag to pull on somoon e. Maybe it was picked up by accident. SUrely no one is dumb enough to mistake the wrongpack for their own. A ner vous twitch shot up my spine. My eyes scanned along the bench area. The space underneath was barren. One ycllow pack rested on the seat beside a blue book hag. My black pack wasn't there. The thought of somoone stealing my pack rushed into my head. 1 tried to block it out. and began searching the UC. My fa� heated with frustration, I broke out in a cold sweat, Two religion papersdoneearly were in that pack. A Press Law assib'llment was typed and ready to be handed in. The en. tire semester's worth of notes. assignmenLs, quizzes and tests were gone. Books, a wallet and a checkbook would nC(!(f replace­ ment. I was Illso outan umbrella. T Lutheran Church.

ing. I frantically dug through the closets, searched under the seats. along walls and in the restroom, No pack, Late to class and feeling helpless, I made my way past the In. formation desk and out into the rain- umbrcllaless and without my books. My eyes watched every pack go by, None were black and none were mine. I'd heard rumors about backpack theft. I thought it mostly happened around finols when people were stressed about exams ..elling the teXLS and maybe wanted to make an extra buck hy re. to the bookstore. Wasn't this a 'nice Christian schoo!'? Campus Safety said pack thieves usually steal the valuables out of the packs- money, calculators, books- and dump the rest, A Campus Safety worker searched in the garbab'C Cllns in the UC restrooms and through the shrubbery around the UC shorL­ Iy after I phoned. No pack turned up. On my way to lunch I spotted my black pack against the wall. A wave of relief flooded through me. Someone must have taken the wrong pack after all lind returned it. Eagerly grabbing it, I opened the zipper and pulled everything out. My books were gone from it, my wallet wllsn 't in the front pocket and the pens and pencils were even different, The pack wasn't mine. Flushed and embarrassed over my actions, I crammed everything back in the pack, It looked just like mine. but it wasn't, It'!:! been a ""eek and a half and my pack still hasn't been found. The religion papers had to bt, redone and the media law assignment rewritten and retyped. The e1nss notes arc gone. I took midterms without them.

Theft has struck three student oU,campus homes since school opened In September, One ol lhe IncIdents resulted In the IOS8 01 over $5,000. Two houses across the street from each other on 127th Avenue, were burglarized wIthIn two weeks of each other. According to Sergeant Nlk Dunbaro f Ihe PIerce County Sherltl's Department. the Jobs do not appear to be related, One seems to have been committed by Juveniles, whIle the other may have been II prolesslonal Job, he said. "Anytime you'retalking about sleallng cookies and such, It's usually Juvenile.related. Anytime they·...e taken the YCR, the compuler, the TV" .It's a professional," Dunbar said. PLU seniors Roll Agather, Ke...ln Moore, and Dave Tourtlotte suflered the loss of over $5,000 In stolen property after burglars shattered a bathroom window and entered theirhouse at 421 S, 1271h, The robbery occurred Oct. 19, the night of PlU's lall formal, between 8 p.m, and 2:15 a.m. All ihe residents were at the dance.

Tourtlotte said this led him to believe the thieves were not juveniles. "Juveniles would have taken II," he said. So far the students have not heard any news regarding the recovery of the slolen lIems. "We talk to the sherllfs but they can" do anything unless someone gives them a lead," Moore said. Another robbery took place at 502 S. 127th, about five weeks ago at a house rented by Marl!: Rill, Wall Miles and Aaron Llnqulsl. Rill said a burglar entered through a kitchen window and preceded to take a wallat and some VHS tapes. Nothing else was touched. Moore said the residents 01 the two broken Into homes were unsure who committed the crimes. "We don't know who did II or 11 11's the same people," Moore said.

McLane said a Significantly greater number of bags are being stolen from outside the Universi· ty and Columbia CenteTa' dining toOrruJ than�last year. Some bags have even been taken when they . were inside the dOOl1l near the cashiers. '"' "This is ridiculoua," said Naomi Tribe, who8e pack was stolen about a month ago. " We need to :! ':':.� done. We're not talking lollipop t McLane said that it is not rare for backpacks to be lost from tbe area inside tbo doors. "Things are being taken from right under our noses. Obviously they're being taken by someone who looks like a student.. It probably is one,"

McLane 68id. J\.kLane reported that appro:riroatcly 80 per­ cent of the pecks taken tum up, without the valuables, soon after their disappearance. Tribe's calculator was missing when her pack was found

behind the UC. "This is becoming so routine that now when we get a report of 0 pack being stolen we imm6diate­ Iy send an officer to go and search �hrough gar· bage cans and batbrooms for them," he said. McLane said Campus Safety has discussed with Food Service the possibility of letLing _ students take their bags into the dining rooms.

Scott Groh, third·yeer resident of Hong Hall, is missing two jaekets he believes were stolen from his room. "I never used to lock my door, and it's never been a problem until now," he said. Bookstore· theft is also on the riM, Director Laura Nole said. She said Itudents eteal text books and try to get refunds for them.

" I wouldn't think it would happen at PLU. I don't know who is do­ ing it, but it makes me feel bad. It hurts my feel­ ings, I guess, like someone is slealing from my home.':

Pacific Lutheran campus lies in area with highest crime rate PLU is located n i a district with the h.ighest overall crime rate n i the West Precinct, wh.ich includes all of unincor­ porated Pierce County, said Curt Ben· son, Pierce County deputy in charge of crime prevention. The disLrict leads the precinct in rapes, assaults , burglaries a nd the fts. Pierce County itself is second only to King County, which includes the Seattle metropolitan area, in reported crimes. The amount of crime occurring in the city of Tacoma far surpasses the amoun� of crime occurring in cities of relatively the same size. Rilliegh, NC, Lincoln, Neb., and Springfield . Mass., are all relative in size but have less reported crime.

In 1983, the Tacoma Police Depart· ment reported a total of 15,215 Part One offenses, down from the 11,189 in 1982. Part One offenses include murder, ford· ble rope, burglary. assault, theft. rob­ bery and vehicle theft. As of September 1984. Tacoma's crimestatisties hod already passed the pre\'ious year's Part One crimes t.otnl.

Nationally, reported crime "'"8S down

five percent in 1983.

Despite the national decrease,

sociologin Marvin Wolfgang said in a New York Times article that U.S. crime staListics are still high relative to other civilized populations. "We're two to 10 times more violent than any country in Western Europe. And the comparison with Japan is even Inore drastic." Wolfgang said. The Federal Bureau of Investigation's 1983 Uniform Crime Report cites a n� mber of factors affecting increases in

-Popu.lotion dCflJity. Crime rates in· crease in Pierce County as rural areas give way to suburban and urban areos. ·Popu.latiotl stability. Tacoma, and the Parkland area especially, has a large transient population from the military bases, said Henson.

Sergeant recommends Crime Watch tips Donn rooms, houses 0.00 apartments

are usually poorly protected against

theft. said Curt Benson, Pierce County deputy in charge of crime prevention. Many homes have oruy Iocldng door­ nobs, which Benson described as effec­ tive " only for keeping the door dosed in a stiff wind," and inadequate locluJ on windows and sliding glass doors. Benson recommended the following Crime Watch tips:

·Since doornobs and chain latches are too easy to force open, crime prevention eJ:perta recommend a deadbolt lock with a one-inch throw. Installing such • lock. and a peephole for doors. are basic prevention measures. For windows, install window locks. They're inezpensive and provide some •

extra security. Another idea la to get

wedge devices that prevent windows from being opened, or alJowyou to open them an inch or two for ventilltion but prevent opening them wider, Sliding gla.!9 doorl are a apecia.I problem because they can be forced open lidewayl or simply popped out or the track. There are variOUI inexpensive items, such as a Charije bar or su� plemental locluJ. which will give yOu bet· ter protection. Check with your crime prevention officer, locksmith or hard· ware dealer.

·Never have a name or license tag at­ tached to your house keys. If keYI are lost or stolen you'll liave an unwelcome visitor very quickly. ·Don't welcome burglars by telephone! Burglars often try to find out ifanyone is home by phOning, If you get several suspicious " wrong number" calls or "nobody·at-the-other-end" calls, tell the police. Warn family members, or friends you're living with, not togive out infor­ mation by phone- especially about·who is home. who is out, how long anyone la expected to beout. ·Make it harder forburgiars to "case" your home by phoneby avoiding names on mailboxes or on doors. Your name on display only makes it.easier for the burglar to look your number up in the ",",,-.

repair people and others who claim to have business inside to show poeitive identification and keep the door closed while you study the identification though the peephole. If you have t.he slightest doubt, telephone their superiors back at. work, getting the number from your directory. If you wish to help a lost or stranded motorist, make the call while he or she waits outside, ·When you do admit a worker or a eaieapenlOnyou were expecting, do not leave them alone at .ny time, ·If, deapite these precautions, a burglar does get into your home, don't offer a "bonus" of cash or easily-carried jewelry. Never keep large sums of cash orjewelry around the house.

.Keep a dog at your house if-you can. If the dog makes Doiae(and moat dOg! willI it'l enough to'cauae . burglar to look for easier- and quieter- picking., ·Ifyou can afford it, you might consider a good alann Iystem, but. buy only from reputable, established dealers, and uk for references. -Try to keep your borne looking "lived in" while you're away, even if it's only for the weekend, Soask a trusted neighbor to keep an eye on your place and to pick up papers and mail The neighbor. or an inexpensive electric timer, can tum your ligbts off and on.

.U you'll be.way fromyour home foran extended time. tell your law enforce­ • mentqency.

·Don't open your door to anyone with no business inside. This ian'tjust to guard apinst robbery by force of threat of force; sometimes burglars who have DO intention of using force will fU'St tly toget in under some pretext so they can scout. out valuables and st.udy locluJ, winoW! and other means OfeDLry.

·The best lOck in the world is worthless if it isn't locked. Always lock up. •Any licensed locksmith can chan", the t.umblers in your outside door locks quickly and inexpensively. So when you move into a home or apartment., have it done. If you lose a key, change the lock tumblers.

·Don't be generOUI in passing around i the extra keys. One might end up n hands of someoneyou don't tI1.lSt.. Don't leave an "emergency" key under the door mat, on top of the door frame, or in any other "hiding spot" so well-known to burglara. ·Keep car keyl and house keys separate.

Students put money on the line, play the stock market by MIriam aacon

Business students are playing the stock market and winning, Those involved with PLU's Student Investment Fund (SIFt are taking what they've learned in the classroom and testing it in the the real world. "We have earned approximately 115.000 since 1981." said Charles Brust, chairman oftbeSIF, The fund was created. by Mary Lund Davis, who originaUy endowed $25,000 to the school of business to provide an opportunity for business students to learn about investing in the stock

market, Brust said, "The main PUfPOse is not to make money but to leam how to invest," he said. "How to make smart decisions," "We've made good decisions, We've n i creased our portfolio value," said Brust. There are 10 members on the board Each member keeps track of an industry and prepares a report. "We look at the financial strength of the ctlmpany," Brust said_ "We look at what type of business it s i ." The most common characteristic that all investor! look at is the price divided by earnings ratio WE ratio), he said. "The PE ratio is a reflection of how

HARRASSM ENT, from page 3 ceptable to one person often is not to another," she said, In order to help students deal with the emotional turmoil of an harassment situation, ManneUy often accompanies students who are too ntimidated i to ctln­ front professors with complaint.5, She also helps students write letters of repri­ mand and confront department or divi­ sion chairs on tbe student's behelf, During the Brown Bag lecture, O'Con· ner presented a videotape produced at the University of Rochester. The tape defined sexual harassment as a means of sexual attention to establish power. Both O'Conner and the tape explained that harassment is frightening and defeating to a student becau8e they are weakened by their subordinate position. "It makes it tough to know how to manage,a situation because you're in a less powerful situation," she said. Sexual harassment is easier to define the longer it OCCW'8, according to O'Conn"Or. "If it happens over a period of time it's more abusive, It's a slimy feeling. You say, 'I'm not relu:ed or comfortable as a student,'" she said. The videotape outlined four resu1ts of sexual harassment to women: It Self-esteem usually suffers as a woman struggles to det�e whether she solicited t� unwanted attention.

2) There is a struggle to deal with the fright that often follows a harassment, nducing i stress related illnesses. 3) A woman feels trivial.ized as a mere sex object. 4) Rumors of faculty and ad­ ministrative misconduct spread causing women to boycott particular institu­ tions that have harassment problems. O'Conner said it is a no win situation at' times because women are afraid to complain for fear that they will be blam­ ed for the behavior or will be treated moreharshly in classEven if a professor and student are bot.h willing to enter a sexually intimate relationship. o'Conner said. she does not think it is a good idea while the stu­ dent is in class or enrolled in the university. "All the dynamics of a lover's quarrel come into the classroom. It carries over to other students who fBei cheated It becomes everyone else's problem if it's not handIed because we're in the c said she is frustrated about sexual harassment on college campuses because it threatens to destroy legitimate and healthy relationships bet· ween faculty and students.

One of the most popular Christian rock performers is singer Amy Grant. She began her career as a strictly religious songster.

He said the performers arc simp­ ly using n "di fferent way to com' municate" how Christianity works in their lh'es. "Whether you're a Christian or not, there is a calling to commitment in the message it brings." said Neufeld.

The PLU Coconut Club is not n group of exchange students from the tropics. Neither is it a baking club, nor n group of devoted pina colada drinkers. The Coconut Club is a gathering of students who share an interest in art and want to have fun. according to club president Steve Petrinovich. "We're not artsy·fartsy," said Petrinovich. "and .....e don't want to be .. overbearing. He said the goals of the club are LO expose people to art and "to brenk down the barrier between art majors and non·art majors." Petrinovich said five of the club's 19 members are not art mnjors and everyone is invited to join.. The club sponsors trips to Seattle art gaUeries on the first Thursday of every month. The artists whose work is exhibited arE' often available to discuss their art. Petrinovich describes these outings as " a really nice break from routine." The Coconut Club received its name four years ago after members decided that The Student Art Guild sounded too sluffy, So, on the suggestion of a professor, the gn;:up renamed itaelf after a New Yock night club. Since that time a good deal of tropical and cocoanut paraphernalia has been collected in the club's office. The club originated in 1969 and its membership has fluctuated over the years. . . People have come and gone. the last couple years have been declining years," said Petrinovich. " J'd like tochange that," The Coconut Club has also been involved with raising money to purchase art· ",:ork and equipment for the art department. Although the group receives a sub­ Sidy from ASPLU, it is baSically self·funded. The club's latest fundraising effort was a piZUl sale in the UC on Halloween night, In the past the group has organized sales of student artwork and at this year's Nov. 23 Yule Boutique in Olson Auditorium a booth will be available for any stu· dent artist who wishes to sell artw()fk. Club membera are becoming more involved in setting up and organizing Wekell Gallery exhibits. A scholarship for students interested in becoming a museum curator is being considered. as well. Petrinovich said he believes art students at PLU are isolated from other stu den� because Ingram Hall is on the edge of campus and it is surrounded by . reSidence haUs. Dennis Cox, chair of the art department. said when the com· mu�ication arts department moves its offices and classes to Ingram in the • sprmg, art students may attract more attention from other students. Cox said artwork is very different from nUrsing (the group that previously occupied In�"1'Dm). "Nursing requires a clean and neat area, but art is not neat. 1 think com· munication artswill share some of Our disciplines and practices," he said. Upcoming events sponsored by the Coconut Club include a speaker and a dance. A potluck dinner is scheduled for Friday and any interested students are invited. A faculty and student football game will precede the dinner. Far directions. contact

Peterson lIaid non·Christians often seem disinterested in Christian events. "However," she said. "a shocking amount of people come to the altar calls given:' Audience members nre often asked to dedicate their lives to Christ during public performances. Neufeld said he accepts the music of most Christian artists. "Psalm 100 says 'make n joyful noise unto the Lord,'" he said. "Whatever that noise is. that's the way you need to express yourself."

Lutes' quarterback Jeff Yarnell threw four touchdowns passes and Jeff Gates scored three times as PLU now faces Western Washington this Saturday in Bellingham. Fans should take note of the new kickoff time of 1 p.m., not 1:30 p.m. as previously scheduled. The Lutes look to move up in this week's national poll, following ties by No. I Northwestern of Iowa �O-O) and No. 3 Azusa Pacific (28·281. Azusa Pacific is the only Area 1 team ahead of the Lutes in the playoff chase.

The Lutes completed 19 of 23 passes for 313 yards. The Clansmen were 9 for 26 for only 18 yards. The Lutes got on the scoreboard first with a Mark Foege field goal. Yarnell hit Gates 20 seconds later for the second PLU score of the day. There was more where that came from.

PlU shoots down Pirates' aerial attack, stretches winning streak to 1 0 games by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter It took a third-quarter rally to spark a 35·22 Pacific Lutheran homecoming grid victory over Whitworth in a Colum· bia Football League battle held last Saturday at Lakewood Stadium. A powerful passing attack led by Whitwmth's junior quarterback Cliff Madison, currently third in national NA IA passing. cranked up and con· nected for 406 aerial yards to provide the Lute defense 1tith one of its biggest challenges of the season. The Pirates tied the game 7·7 just before the halftime gun and went ahead 10·7 in the third period, but four PLU touchdowns in just over six minutes in the third period crushed Whitworth's upset hopes. A 12'point fourth'period rally by the Piraws fell short after two fourth down attempts were stymied by PLU. After a scoreless first quarter, the Lutes got on the board first when PLU quarterback Jeff Yarnell hit running backJud Keirn on a Io-yard scoring toss

with 12:30 left in the .second frame. The 58-yard drive was keyed by an ll'yard dash by Mike Vindivich and jaunts of 12 and 8 yards by Mark Helm from his fullback position. Whitworth's Brian Steams picked off a pass at his own 41 and bounced orr five tacklers before finally being hammered out of bounds at the PLU 22. A defen· sive holding call kept the struggling drive going for the Pirates as Madison rifled a touchdown pass to Mark Houk on fourth and goal from the nine-yard line. Madison went back to the air in the se­ cond half, .hitting Larry Kelly on a 29·yard reception to the PLU 39 and 11 36'Yl1rd toss to Scott Ralph at the eight. yard line after I1n illegal motion penalty to set up a 36·yard field goal by Robert Coleman. Facing their flfSl .second·half deficit of the season. PLU responded with four quick scores to put the game out of reach. On the ensuing kickoff. a reverse on the return saw Jud Keirn tightrope the sideline 80 yards to the Whitworth 23 and Yarnell capped the drive with a 19·yard screen pass and run to Mike Vindivich. On the next PLU series, the Lutes scored three times, but recorded only six points on the scoreboard. A 50·yard touchdown run by Vindivich and a 48-yard touchdown pass to Craig Purey resulted colled back on holding and dip­ ping penalties, respectively. A 47·yard touchdown pass to Vindivich on the next ploy finally counted at 6:44 left in the third period as the Lutes went on top21·10. PLU stopped a fake punt attempt on the next drive with the aid of on inelligi' ble receiver downfield call to take over at the Pirate 15. Three plays later, Mark Helm plowed n i to the end wne from five yards out for a PLU score. The first of two interceptions by defensive back Mike O'Donnell of the Lutes set up a 46·yard scoring strike from Yarnell to Puzey to cap a one-play ddve. Mark Foege's extra point made it 35-10. Whitworth got b8ck on the board with 10:39 remaining as Madison hit Kelly on a 55·yard touchdown pass, but a two­ point co.wersion attempt fai l ed.

They outscored their opponents 62·26 this season. "This was probably one of the best seasons our soccer team has ever hod." said Hocker. "The longer we played. the better we got." Hacker said the defense has been elt· cellent. She said Ruth Frobe. Nan Sue and Maria Steves. Ericksen. Schroder have been the defense all season.

Sportswrap by Mike Condardo Mast

Ten cheerleaders climb onto each other's backs forming a symmetrical joins crowd th" as pyramid them in the cheer. "We Are...The Lutes." Following 8 P LU touchdown, one of the male cheerleaders lifts a female copart high into the air above his head. These stunts used to be common-place among cheerleaders including the Lutes eleven·member autumn squad and t.he seven·member winter/spring squad. But things have changed due to a decision handed down by the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAiA). which basicaUy says two things: A.I Pyramids or stacking of bodies by cheerleaders shall be disallowed at NAJA district. biltri-district. area or national events. D.) No external force shall be used by cheerleaders to propel the body a t NAIA district. biltri-district. area o r national events {example: trampoline, springboard, clasped hands). These fe9trictions were handed down only for the post·season in a eport issued by the NAIA. The decision was made after a three year study was completed by the Athletic Trainers Association and the Medical Aspects of Sports Committee concerning the injuries cheerleaders acquire through theactivities they perform. Shortly following the NAJA's decision. PLU Director of Athletics Dr. David Olson and Pre9ident William Rieke reviewed the NAJA's decision and decided to apply these regulations to the entire seuon. The decision to J:arry over to the en' i a memo from Olson to LaUfalee Hagen. Director of tir e season appeared n Residential Life and advisor for the cheer squad. The memo reported that the decision was made "To prevent safety and well· being of our cheerleaders and to minimize the liability of the institution. we feel it is imperative to follow these regulations throughout the year." The NAJA's letter sounded much in the same way. "In that the national body has taken such action. your institution may be assuming certain legal risks in allowing cheerleaders toperform activities deemed unsafe by the association." It sounded asif the most important part of this decision in the NAIA's eyes was their liability in the case of one of the cheerleaders being hurt. The NAJA in the tone of their letter appears to be trying to scare the sense into the athletic i to its directore. When both the NAJA and PLU implemented this decision n athletic policies, the first worry was their liability. What about the cheerlesders? Don't they matter? It·s not that the cheerleaders are just going to up and quit. They are open to some changes. But the matter of the fact is that the squad was not even con­ sulted on this decision until Oct. 24 when Dr. Olson issued the decision. Accor­ ding to some of the members of the squad. Olson didn't even bother to check out what kind of precautions the squad takes to avoid injury. One of the changes the squad is willing to make is to follow the guidelines �ug­ gested by a comprehensive report on "Maximizlng Safety In Cheerleading," written by Gregory Webb (Vice President of the Universal Cheerleaders Associa­ tion), Linda Edwards 1F0rmer Cheerleading Advisor at the University of Utahl. and Gary Sharp, who is a certified athletic trainer. These people have anayzed. the injuries involved in cheerleading and used 1982 as a year for their study noting all the eases that ocurred that year. Of the 14.582 surveyed. the report pointed out that ankle injuries account for 25.7 percent of all injuires accumulated in cheerleading and that 341 of the 604 total injuries in that year came during practice sessions. The report. also lists some guidelines that the squads should follow in warming up for cheering and stunts. as well as strict guidelines for performing stunts and building of pyramids.

i willing to compromise and not totally dispense with the The PLU squad s stunts, but go by the guidelines set down by the "Maximi.ting Safety" report. Another dilemma that was brought about by the decision handed down by Olson and Rieke was that leaves the male cheerleaders out in the cold. DUring tryouts. the male cheerleaders were specifically judged on how well they perform. ed the stunts and pyramids. as well as how their female coparts felt about how they were lifted and how well the male performed the stunt overall. But now that the picks for the winter/spring st.aff hove been made for quite some time. this happens. As one male cheerleader put it, ''I'd look pretty ridiculous out there doing kicks. We would be kind of useless just standing around out there with a megaphone when I could be directing my energies somewhere else." Before male cheerleaders were elected to the squads beginning a couple years ago, guys used to volunteer as cheerleaders for the Lutes. Since men staned be­ ing selected to the squad, the caliber of cheerleading at PLU is extremely high. But now the cheer squad has sort of "Got the rug pulled out from under them"attitude. Sure there are going to be injuries in cheerleading just as there is in any other athletic activity. Look at PLU's football team. Greg Kennedy and Steve Welch have been out for the season due to injuries obtained through their sport. What is the difference between athletics and cheerleading? In every respect, cheerleaders are aU·Jetes. They train just all hard as the athletes do. they practice long and hard hours and they peform athletic stunts just as athletes do. Some consider them a cross between spect.aton and athletes. How could cheerleaders be considered !p6Ctators? Try lifting your roommate over your head and do some of the moves the way PLU's cheerleaders do and then uplain to me how they cannot be considered athletes.

Maybe this situation would be bette!' understood if we compared it to a car. If there is an automobile accident and someone gets injured, do we solve the pr� btem by taking all the cars off the road? No. we take safety precautions so that the next time an accident occurs. there will be a reduced chance of someone get­ ting injured.

To reduce the risk of injUry n i Ii car. you might add safety belts or airhags for protection. With cheerelading stunts. you can add spotters, perform gtunts on mats to cushion falls. or even limit the height of the stunts to minimize the height of the fall. As far as the injuries go. another element to consider is that cheerleading on the east coast is very different from that out here in the west. The eastern cheerleaders moves are much more complicated and can lead to more serious in· juries. Whereas in the ....est. the less risk you take in your mo\·es. the bener you chances /lTe of not being hurt.

Suspect found in pack thefts

by Kathy lawrence

by Katharine Hedland Mast staff reporter

PLU's Health Center treated 91 cases of sexually transmitted diseases last year, sllid Judy Wagonfeld, PLU's self .. cllness coordinator. In September ' re.I Cll of this year. she said. eight cases were treated. While gonorrhea and syphilis may be the most well known of these diseases there aTe many others considered to be sexually tnmsmiLted diseases. Those diagnosed at the Health Center include candidiasis. chlamydia. gurd· lice. herpes. gonorrhea, nerella. trichomonas. and venereal warts, said Wagonfcld. "We get the whole range," she said. Chlamydia and gardnerclla occurred most frequently in 1984·85. Each represented 20 cases last. year. Wagonfeld said both are transmit.t.ed solely through sexual contact 8Qd' they share similar characteristics. The symptoms for males and females are alike. she said, and include discharge, burning, and itching of the genitals. Tn addition, females may suffer abdominal pain. Venereal warts. Wagonfeld said, are similar to herpes because no cure has been found. The other diseases, she said, can be treated with medication. She said that students who are diagnosed with a sezually transmitted disease ari:! asked to bring their suual partners in for a c:heck·up. Students usually only come in when they have a problem and this is unfor· tunate. she said. Some people do not ex' perienc:e any symptoms and by the time they discover the disease, it may have already done severe damage to their reprodUctive system�. said Wagonfeld. She said if symptoms do occur, a stu· dent should come in immediately to pre­ vent damage to their reproductive systems since sexually transmitted di5(>8lIes spread very quickly. She added that there is no fee at the Health Center for checking for infe..:tion. I f a person is sexually active, Wagonfeld slIid. he or she should come in for a yearly check-up. She emphasized that using condoms and decreasing the number of sexual partners are ways to avoid contracting a sexually transmitted disease.

Campus Safety apprehended a youth Wednesday afLernoon who is believed to be responsible for stealing several book bags from the University Center since school began. said Campus Safety Direc­ tor Ron Garrett. Garrett said tne suspect was question· ed and released by Campus Safety. "We have no sufficient evidence to press c:harges," Garrett said, explaining that he believes the youth was involved with the thefts. The youth was described by Garrett as a 16·year-old male, 5 feet 6 inches tall with brown eyes and bro.....n curly hllir. Campus Safety personnel warned the youth that he was trespassing and told him not to retum to campus. Garrett said. "This satisfies our ll'gal responsibili· ty." he said.- saying that the university may take action against the youth if he is again discovered on the PLU campus. The youth had been seen prior to Wednesday on numerous occasions, Garrett said. He said he had determined the suspect was not It PLU student, bas· ed on reports from University personnel who had previous contact with the youth. UC staff members had con­ fronted him before and he had been ask· ed to leave the Games Room. The suspect had been seen carrying two backpacks out of the UC, Garrett said, although it has never been established whether the property belonged to him or not. UC staff members began watching for the youth and notified Campus Safety when he entered the building Wednes· day, Garrett saia. The suspect "sat on benches outside and watched people putting their things down." Garrett said. Campus Safety personnel observed him for 15 minutes before he noticed he was being watched and went downstairs in the lIc. He was followed and confronted.

Parking regulations may be up for revision by Emily Morgan

Mast reporter Parking regulations and areas at PLU may be changing soon now that the Traffic and Appeals Board is in operation. The board will be responsible for recommending policies concerning tmf· fic regulations and parking facilities to Ron Garrett, the director of Campus Safety. Appeals of parkinA: citations issued by Campus Safety will be decided by the board. but Pen"}' Hendricks, vice president for finance and operations. hi.:s the power to revie"" and alter the board's decision under unusual circumstances. " If you are going to have Campus Safety ticket people. you have to have some 30rt of balance there." said board member. Dean Pinto. "In this case. the appeals board."' The board is composed of five voting mrmbers and one non·voting member. Three student.s-Jennifer Hubbard. Dean Pinto. Susie Smith-along with reigion l professor Michael Poellet and personnel' secretary·technican Yvonne Zylkowski comprise the voting members. The non·voting member will be either Garrett or Brad McLane from Campus Safety: they will act in an ad· viY.lry capacity on questions of policy. Curn.'fIt PLU parking regulations of· fer the right of appeal to each student and employee. Violators are notified by Campus Safety of the fines due and may appeal the fine through that office. If the cited driver is not satisified with the decision. he or she may appeal to the Traffi!: and Appeals Board. "It is important that student.s have some place t.o go if they do feel they've been wronged."' said Hubbard. chairper­ son for the board.

Interest has been generated surroun­ ding PLU's tieketing policy because no appeal meetings were conducted last year. In addition, possibly as many as a few hundred parking tickets were lost during ASPLU's last senate term. The tickets disappeared and no other rerord of the citations was kept.. Garrett said Campus Safety does not have the manpower to ticket every violator every time: it has no daily quota to fill and does not benefit by the tickets it renders. "It is really easy to take your chances especially when you're not checked on very often, but if you are In the wrong, you will have to pay the price," said Hubbard. There were questions raised this year about tickets given for violations not mentioned in the parking regulations booklet distributed to students. Doubt.s were expressed &.s to whether some student.s ever received the information. Two meetings are planned within the next weeks to discuss appeals already received since the beginning of the schooJ year. The hoard will then meet as needed. The Campus Safety Office will refer appeals to the board within 48 hours after receiving them. When a deci­ sion has been reached, the chairperson will notify the appellant and Campus Safety within 48 hours of the meeting. If an appeal of a citation is not filed within 10 days and no payment of the ticket hall been made, Campus Safety will process the citation through the Business Office. The board is a university committee appointed by President Rieke. It is not ASPLU related but the ASPLU vice president is responsible for serving as head of the board. Campus Safety and members of the appeals board recommend that parking facility users obtain a copy of the vehicle parking and regulations pamphlet from the Campus Safety Offiee to review the rules and ask questions if necessary.

Chemistry profs team up to teach in China next hear by Clayton Cowl

Mast stall reporter PLU chemistry professors William Giddings and Charles Anderson often seem to work in the urne plaee at t.he StUne time. frrst at Harvard Graduate School then in the ehemistry depart­ ment al PLU. And now. the two plan to team up and teach organic chemistry at Chenl;du University in the People's Republic of China next fall and spring. This PLU·sponsored academic adven· ture is designed to provide students with the opportunity to combine their studies in advanced science with a visit to the Orient. Chendu is located in the central part of China, about 800 miles northwest. of Hong Kong, on a large plain aurrounded by mountains. It is one of the most pro­ ductive agriculture centera in the region. The idea of combining courses in Chinese language and culture with studies n i science was developed. after coordinatol"8 Kwong-Tin Tang of PLU's physica department and Anderson of the chemistry department visited China last apring. The academic lineup will provide a practical background in Chineee studies. Instruction, voiced in Mandarin Chinese. will cover aurvey courses in Chinese art, literature. geography and history. The program will also feature non-cred.it lectures in English on selected hil'!toric and contemporary Chinese topica. Organic ehemistry will be the featured xience class for the 1986-87 school year. The program offers elllenaive course­ related travel throulthout China. in·

Vignec finds challenge i n low income commun ity by Lance Kuyhndall

Mast staff reporter

Reverend Ron Vignec. associate university pastor at PLU the last five years, has left the academic environment of the university for the city streets of the Shalishan community, a low· income housing development managed by the Tacoma Housing Authority. Vignec was commissioned on Nov. 5 as establishing pastor for the Salishan Lutheran Mission at the East.side Community Center in Tacoma. The commissioning service " was the official way the church says 'we are sending you now to begin! ' . . Vignec said. His work actually began last spring. he said. when the church called him to the urban ministry. Vignec said his decision to ac­ cept the position came from a cern· bination of things. After a trip to CentraJ America as part of an American Lutheran Church fact·finding group observ· ing conditions in Nicaragua and EI Salvador, he said " I had a dif· ferent perspective on what I wanted to be doing." "Talking with people of faith amidst the poverty gave me much food for thought," he said. "We love PLU and the work we are doing." Vigtloc said. but the church can always find good pe0ple for PLU. "it's harder to rind people for urban ministry." The Salishan community, located n i southeast Tacoma, has .II population of about 2.700. At the

time of the 1979 census 67 percent of the population was below the poverty line. . Vignec said urban ministry is a change for the Lutheran church. "This is one of t.he rare times the institutional church bas put its money where ita mouth is, said it cares, and sent someone." The Salishan mission is aup" ported by aU three cburch bodies: the Luther-an church in America. the American Lutheran church. and the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. Vignee said he will bring his own urban background to the misaion. "I grew up il, Brooklyn," he said. "My whole youth and adolescence , is ther-e.'· Now. he said. he is coming back to the city. "more mature, to suc:­ ceed and to fail."

Failure. he explained, is part of the mission, Salishan will be more like a parish than a church, he said. Normal means of measuring success, such a5 the amount of money a program brings in, will not be effective. The Salishan Mission will not bring in money, he said, and will serve some people who may never go to church. "We hope to have a

worshipping community," he said, '"but the way we'll do it is really unknown yet." Vignec said his work in the Salishan area '"started slowly." He has been meeting with com· munity leaders as well as going to Lutheran churches to de!ICribe the mission and seek support. He has begun to get a wouhipp" ing community a:..&rUld. He said. "We hope to initiate our first ser­ vice December 1st."' The date is symbolic. he said, it is the Advent, orehurch new year. In addition to beginning wor· ship, he will also be starting an association to provide sports and activities in the Salishan area. He said the program will primarily w(ll"k with adolescents.. He said that n i the Salishan area, where the average age in the com­ munity is 17. there is a need for adult mentol1l to provide responsi· ble adult modeJs. Long-term guals Vignec has for the Salisban Mission would be a "hospitality house'" that would be a plaM for "community programs related to education." Programs there could deal with auch things as "problems with seeking employment," he said. Vignec said he would also l.i.Ii:e to develop links between PLU and the Salishan community. He said this could include having interns from Co-operative Education. a sports program nvolving i the PhySical Education Department. involvement with the University Congregation. and inereued in­ volvement with the achool of

New bu i ld i ng pass system receivi ng m ixed reactions by Jeff aell Masl reporter PLU's new pass system is receiving mixed reactions' from faculty and students. Although it is still too soon to give a fuU evaluation of PLU's building pass system, the two groups cite reasons why they are both for. and against. the restriction to access. For students with passes it meant easier access to campus buildings after­ hours 85 weu as removing doubt about the student's presence in the building. The tightened building security by Campus Safety is favored by Dud Cun­ ningham, a student who works in an Eastvold music office after-hours. She compared the pass system to last year's eecurity by saying " I was never ques­ tioned last year" in reference to her after-hours usage at that time. "I like it, personally, for the ease of use," said Paul Gould. Gould. like many other music students. uses both Easlvold's main auditorium and Trinity Luthersn Church's organ area in which to practice.

Johnson shows concern in work with delinquents by Mike Condardo

Mas t stall reporter

Take a walk around downtown Tacoma and watch the kids pass the day on the street comers. Some are just hanging out or getting together with friends. But others are in· volved in drugs nd prostitution, Most of this second group will end up on the YoTOng side of the law during their childhood years. Some will be >:lent to a juvenile hall. Others may be put on pro­ bation and released, Still others will be put in group or foster homes. Who deals with these kids once they ate caught breaking the law? Most counselors are trained profes­ sionals. But for one Pacific Lutheran University senior, talking with these kids is just another step toward a career in social work as a counselor of juvenile delinquents. Mona Johnson is getting a double dose of field e%perience in this often frustrating occupation ....here a juvenile could be released by the court one day and returned the next, Johnson, a 1982 graduate of Bell­ ingham High school. spends part of her time as a probation officer's aide at Remann Hall, a probation facility in Tacoma for juveniles who have been ar­ rested for committing a crim.e. Her daily work n i cludes sorting out the judicial aspects of juvenile crime. such as warrants for kids who have violated their probation, as well as the masses of paperwork involved with such a facility. In addition to attending classes and working at Remhnn Hall, Johnson also acts as a counselor at Dyslins Boys Ranch . "At Dyslins, I act as a sort of 'live in' parent in that I do many of the things parents do," said Johnson. "I get towels for them, I make sure they do their chores or 'details' and get them together for dinner. I also break up 'wrestling matches·, and I talk with them about their problems." Dyslins' residents require a lot of at­ tention which can be emotionally drain· ing, said Johnson.

In Tacoma.

"I had promised a kid at Dyslins that f i he ever got arrested and brought to Remann Hall I would visit him," she said. "This kid got arrested and was booked in Remann and he made sure that I held up my end of the promise. This relationship has resulted in his truSting me and that's important." Johnson first decided to be a counselor after an nterim i class field trip to Western State Mental Hospital where she observed the Child Study and Treatment Center. This caught her eye right away, she said, because it was social work and not psychology. "I thought it was interesting because I didn't like psychology. To me. it's too thoory oriented," said Johnson, "I took an ntroduction i to social work class and I loved it. That's when I knew what my major would be. I had found an interest that -I liked and it was something that.

was practical, something 'hands on' in helpingpeople with counseling issues.·' Johnson's job is far from the picture some people have of counselors aitting in plush offices meeting with people over a cup of coffee. "It's not like people come to your of­ fice and you counsel them for an hour," she said, "In counseling juveniles, you help them find a place to live, and help them along with their lives. Crisis situa­ tions, that's mainly what you're dealing with. Social workers deal with crisis situations, " Johnson believes the title, "counselor," has a bad name because the image of socia! workers is that of state employees . the welfare department. "People think all we do is hand out welfare checks, whereas social work is much more than that. It can be practical

and I think a lot of people look down on it, thinking 'Oh, you're a social work ma· jor, so you really don't know what's go­ ing on,' or 'You're just helping mothers with babies that aren't going to help themselves in the fIrst place ami you're just wasting your time doing that,' That's the attitude that's developed and I don't think that's true at all," said Johnson. Johnson sees her job as offering kids the help that they never rightfully received. " I see myself as someone there to en­ courage them, to guide and support them along the way and 1'11 use every ability that I have to help them," she said. "They have to lJ19.ke the decisions, but once they reach that point. I see my goal as being one of encouragement and guidance." J"ohnson watches troubled juveniles come and go. But she points out that a lot of these kids have been dealt a serious blow sometime in their life that set them back. "I deal with individuals who have made choices along the way that have dictated how things have ended up for them. But it's not all their fault," she said, "Society looks down upon them, thinking, 'If you work harder, you can get yourself out of that situation.' For some people that's true, but for others they need someone alongside them to support them." For some of these kids, working a lit­ tle harder sometimes means living on the streets to escape being sexually. physically, or emotionally abused. Some want to escape from an alcoholic parent or a family that simply doesn'tcare. "Most of these kids have burned many bridges behind them with their families. They don't want to go and make up and it's easier to live on the streets than to put themselves through the living hell that they might go through staying with their parents," said Johnson. Street life is particularly interesting to Johnson, She has taken the time togo downtown and talk to thekids there.

Residents make req uests for dorm i mprovements

by Miriam Bacon

Mast staff reporter

Dorm residents are asking for im· provements in their haUs through ven· ture capital this year. Recent proposals for dorm im· provements include upgrading �tudy areas, new furniture, new carpeting and adding a main desk. A lot of time is spent on remodeling and the renovation of public areas, said Jan Maul·Smith, housing coordinator, Public areas include thA lobbies of dorms, main lounges and study areas, Venture capital consists of 515,000 set aside by the Residential Life Office for use by students for the improvement of their living environment, The proposals from Alpine, Evergreen, Harstad, Hong, Kreidler, and Ordal are asking for furniture, carpeting, andlor lighting, Carpet is usually ....anted for floors but according to Eric Swensen, sophomore, Ordal is proposing capeting for study room walls, Carpeting will deaden the noise for the rooms, he said, " I had soon it work quite well before in drafting rooms for engineers," he said,

The committee bases It's decision's on the amount and quality of par· tlcipatlon by students, how the changes will improve student life and bring a specific area up to standards.

Renovation of front desks for security reasons is sometimes necessary. Stuen's proposal is for a new de,k in· cluding the relocation of the mailboxes. "We want to make the Ihardly used) bothroom into 8 mailroom to in"rease mail security," said Randy Grant, junior. The bathroom is located nel(t to the desk. Doors for lounges are wanted in Evergreen, Ivy, and Stuen to reduce the noise level. Ivy residents also proposed for new bathroom stalls and a new oven. said sophomore Dennis Peters. Evergreen Court residents proposed for lracklighting and a bamboo curtain for the lounge, Delta residents proposed for kitchen utensils. "We didn't know before that we could gel anything ithrough venture capitaH," soidJanice Farris, a senior, Last year Evergreen Court received new furniture and carpet for the main

Pflueger's proposal is for padded carpeting for the T,V, lounge. But in· stead of writing a dry proposal, said An· dy Rogers, sophomore, a comedy slide show was presented to the committee. Evergreen and Cascade proposals are for improvements to study areas.

Arts PLU sen ior travels to spread happi ness bySutan Eury Mast staff reporter Up With People, the international musical group, has aUractcd members from aU over the world and several PLU students, as well. One of those student!! is Julie Wicks, a senior n i secondary education at PLU. Wicks took a year's leave following her junior year in college and traveled with the group from July 1984 to July 1985. She joined 130 other people between the ages of 18 and 25 to sing and dance her wsy around Europe. Wicks' cast traveled and performed in Italy, Germany, Switz.erland, Belgium, Scotland. and Britain. She decided to apply to Up With People at the encouragement of her father. But after receiving a letter telling her she was on a waiting listto join, she believ­ ed the group didn't want her. " I figured a nice group like Up With People would have B nice way of rejecting . . people, like telling them that they're on a waiting list," she said. But Wicks continued writing to the organization acd flnally received a letter inviting her to the rehearsal camp in Tucson, Arizona. After six weeks, her cast leftfor Canada to begin the tour. Seventeen countries were represented by Wicks'cast, which included people from Japan. Germany, Italy, Norway, Sweden. Mexico, and Costa Rica. A typical day for Wicks began at 7:30 •.m. with a cast meeting followed by three hours of work setting the stage for that evening'.B concert. In the afternoon the group would split up, BOrne rehearsing for four hours and others going out in­ to the community to perfonn at nursing homes and IIChools. Performances were usually scheduled for 8 p.m. Wicks said her day usually ended at 12:30 a.m. Wicks stayed with over 70 different host families on the tour and often didn't speak the same language. Despite the rigors of the tour, Wicks describes it as "strenouous, but fun." Cast members are given two free days a month to explore the culture of their host country. One of Wicks' most memorable experiences occurred while she was visiting Rome. She and a fellow cast member from Britain heard that the Prince Charles and Princess Diana of Wales were to appear at the Pantheon Theater in Rome. The two went to the theater and arrived early enough to be seated in the front row. No sooner had they sat down than the prince and princess walked in front of them. Wicks' friend quickly greeted the royal couple and when he realized they The goal of Up With People, said Wicks, is to bring people from all over the spoke English the Prince asked them what they were doing in Italy.

Ensemble moves in a �contemporary direction by Jenne Abrahamson Mast reporter

Anyon� wal.king past Chris Knutzen Hall wt night- might have heard some unfamiliar sounds corning from the room. Those unique strains were provid· ed by PLU'II Contemporary Directions Ensemble (COE). . Not all music uses sweet harmo.nietll and even tempo!. Some 20th century compositions are a tonal and lend themseJvetl to improvisation. PLU musi· cians, as members of the Contemporary OirectioD8 Ensemble (COE), now have an opportunity to practice reading these often unfamiliar lICOres and technically difficult pieces. But David Robbins, musical diTect.or and conductor of the ensemb)e. said musicians are sometimes hesitant to branch out from restrictive. w..llsical music lICOre3.

"Musicians don't tend to span· taneously create music," said Robbins. The format of 20th century music strips cla.ssically trained musicians of the security blan.ket provided by their scores, he said. w for Lh�"fe�d, !��� racking COE is C\UT'ellUy offered as an elective music cliLss and enrollment is usually small, said Robbins.

Ensemble member Cindy Bwen said, "CDE is a different experience which heeomeu n enrachallenge." Improvisation, she said, requires more practice to diacover the sound that is wanted.

duction as a whole, he said. In contrast, an individual's contribution to the fabric of a classical piece is the prime focus of that type of work. Program notes, written by Robbins for last night's concert, delCribe the musician'l task.

"The challenge to the performell of these diverse compositional approaches is intriguing: to imbue the works of strict control with the spontaneity of improviaation and to bring to the works of improvisation the conviction of IItriCt control."

A similar ensemble will be open to students during Interim 1986. A multi-­ media arts ensemble will be open to everyone. Youtz., the instructor fOf' the clasa, said he anticipatel this to be a fun opportunity for improvisation in addi­ tion to the COE offeN!d each semester.

Mast staff reporter

Jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis, veteran performer and recording artist, brings hil tour of state universities in the Nor­ thwest to the University of Puget Sound Fieldhouse tonight al 8:30. Tonight's concert will be the only date on the tour to include Lewis' trio. After recording 54 albums Lewis has npelienced success in both jazz and popular music circles. His trio went gold in the 1960s with the million·sellers "The In Crowd" and " Hang on Sioopy". Born 50 years ago in Chicago, Illinois, Lewis kick classicalpiano lessons at the age of 4. When he was fifteen Lewis met bassist Eldee Young and drummer Red Holt and the three soon fanned the Ramsey Lewis Trio. After building a reputation in the Chicago jazz circuit the group was signed to a recording con· tract with Chess Records in 1958.

8 The Mast, November 15, 1985

Viewpoints Editorial The PLU Dating Game seems to be vastly different from other universities. In Luteland, a casual dale seems to mean thai wedding bells and the pitter-patter of little feet will soon.follow. There are so many beautiful (and good looking) peo­ ple at PLU thai seldom go on dates because of the fear that It "will lead to something serious." 11 Is normal for a person to want to find that ideal, wholesome, honest person. But the problem Is that there are so many at PLU who fit that description. This leads students to want to find that special so­ meone at PLU, rather than wait, get theIr career started, and take a chance on meeting someone who might not be as wholesome on the outsida. As people look to capitalize on the opportunity of meeting someone at PLU, the result Is a more serious, less casual attitude about dating. This serious attitude destroys the atmosphere of casual dating and takIng someone oul just to get to knowthem better as a friend. As I was Sitting in the barber chair last week, the hairdresser explained that she had hollered at a PLU sophomore who told her that he refused to take a girl to the fall formal because he, "did not want to start anything serious." What ever happened to going out on a date to have a fun time on the town? There is something to be said for going out with a number of people to see how you get along with dif­ feren! personalities. You may be surprised what works and what doesn't. You may find your dream man or woman Is not so dreamy. But life is an education; and if disaster strikes, you learn not to repeat your mistakes. So be willing to experiment and go out wIth different people. When you meet someone, don't make It your first concern to start a serious relationship. You must first gel to know them as a friend.

If you think you blew it, don't worry; You're not the first by Clayton Cowl You are having a wonderful day when you stroll into Econ and your professor suddenly announces, "Today we will go over the tests from last week." No problem. "I aced, it," you say to yourself. The test comes back. You blew it. As you walk out of class stunned and depressed, you catch your new Nordy's fri.zzy sweater on a maintenance cart and the heel of your shoe gets stuck in a sewer grating. Maybe we ell make mistakes, .but most of us have never made four errors on one play, the way Mike Grady of the New York Giants did in 1895. And n:taybe we've all made some poor deci· SLons in our lives, but we didn't invent the Edsel. And how about the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Titanic and the 22 different publishers who rejected James Joyce's Ulysses? Next to them, our mistakes seem tiny. Western Union turned down exclusive rights to the patent for the telephone and IBM twice refused CheSLer Carlson when he approached them with his invention-the Xerox machine. The Oregon State marching band lin· ed up for a Beaver half time football per· formance and featured the the tune by Howard Jones·s. "Thin� Can Only Get Better." If you think they dropped the ball, take a look at Dan Pastorini. In 1973 when he played for Houst.on, he manag· ed to fumble the ball 17 times-an Na­ tional Football League record. or course, error isn't always necessari­ ly bad. Penicillin, photography, electric current and X·rays were all discovered by mistake. And the accidental cultiva·

lion of chiccry roots resulted in a "new'· vegetable, the endive. When you consider that Ibsen, James, Tolstoy and Conrad never won the Nobel Pri.ze for literature. but Giosue Carducci, Rudolf Eucken and Selma Lager-log did, that the British warship Trinidad managed t.o torpedo itself in 1941 and Einstein's algebra in his theory of relativity was corrected three times, thin� don't seem quite so bad. In every field, error and blunder have always made the world go round, even if it goes around a bit shaky at times. We live in a universe which many scientists say began with an explosion_ We live out our days on the remains of that explosion, on a planet which rotates in space not straight but tilted at its axis, a globe which at one time was con­ sidered by everyone t.o be nat and which today is widely believed to be round but isn't (it's slightly depressed /!-L the top and bottom to create a shape officially called an oblate sphe: oid). Is it any wonder, then, that history played OUt on this place called earth-a residue of an explosion, tilted. squashed and populated by DNA mutations-has been affected by error? We may wish to believe that the great forces of h istory move without mistake. but the truth is far different. The vents of history are more often than not characterized by bungling and blunder because people are the ones involved in making history. Human error shapes and colors happenings more than the careful preparation that goes into con­ trolling events. It's a auy world out there. Like former president Gerald Ford said, "If Lincoln were alive today, he'd roll over inhisgrave."

Students can experience hunger, send aid to world's starving To the Editor Wednesday, November 20, Bread for the World is sponsoring its annual alI­ campus fast. It is an opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to experience for a day the hunger that millions have to ex­ perience for a lifetime. By giving their names to BFW members in the ue or CC on the 18th and 19th, and fasting on the 20th, on· campus students can donate the cost of their meals to hunger relief. Off-campus students, faculty, and staff can donate the cost of their meals by cash or check made payable to Bread for the World at the Campus Ministries Office. Last year's efforts raised $2200, half of which was given to Tacoma area food banks, and half to Lutheran World Relief. During las� year's fast, I was con­ fronted by an angry student. "I need my food!," he shouted indignantly over his shoulder, implying that a select few in the world eat out of necessity. Hunger is a human problem, whether its victims live in Ethiopia. Cambodia,

The

EI Salvador, or here n i Tecoma. Few of us are Ethiopian. but we are called to a<..-t out of concern for human life. Martin Niemoller, a concentration camp inmate of World War II, writes of .the urgency for in<tividual commitment: "When they arrested the communists and socialists, I said: I am not a com­ munist. so I did nothing. When they im­ prisoned the Jews, I said: I am not a Jew, so I <tid nothing. When they attack­ ed the Catholics, I said: I am not a Catholic, so I did nothing. When they came for nle, there was no onll left to come to my aid . . . " The question isn't who needs food. We all do. The question is whether we as human being! can ig­ nore those who lack it. Fasting for a day won't solve the world's hunger problems. But it will feed hungry people in Tacoma and some of those ministered to by Lutheran World Relief. It is a beginning to make ourselves more aware and responsible. as for· tunate, but equal human beings. John Batker Co-Chair, Bread for the World

Most men questioned said Ihat lhay fell bOth physical beauty and per· sonallty play an important role In their selection of a "perfect to", "Physical beauty Is what first at· tracts me, but personality Is key," said Joe, a lower campus sophomore. " When Ihey both come together, that's ecstasy." Bob, a sophomore from lower cam· pus, said, " 11 she's got the personalily and hal/ lhe looks then everything else Is a plus." Many men said thai they thought hair and eyes were important aspects 01 physical t>eauty. '" have a feUsh lor stralghl long blonde hair," Joe said.

"What a girl lookS lIk.e Is secondary 10 just who she Is," Paul said. "You can always have a pretty package, but a sour inside. " The biggest things that attract me are someone with a good sense of humor, a diverse personality and a definile value structure," Paul said. "A Christian girl will always be more at­ tractive to me." Frank said that he's "mostly looking lor honesty and consistency in per­ sonality," and whether Ihe girl is herself all the time, Iruthful. "The girl has 10 be able 10 have a good lime but be serlous- curl up by a lire orgo oul on Ihe town," said Joe. "She has to be athletic, but sophisticated- one day be Miss Nord· strom's and the n('xt day wear sweats and be comfortable with both," he said. "She has to be Intelligent, lndopen. dant, out-going and sensitive," said John, a Junior from upper campus. "She can't be possessive, It has to be a challenge." The Lule men Cjuestloned expressed things they see to be "turn oIl's" In women. "Noses can be a real turn oli," Joe said. '" don't like them big." Neal, a lowercampus freshman, said women who smoke "make me sick. That's really gross. 't's definitely a turn-oli to me." Of the men Interviewed, most said that they liked women who try to dress in fashion a:ld wear a modest amount of makeup. "I don't Ihlnk a 'perfect 10' exlsls," Paul said.

"The Soloflex man. Now that's a '10'," said Julie, a freshman from lower campus. Several PLU women described their concept of "the Ideal man," Proper manners, personality and appearance proved to be the most important characteristics when selecting a man, The ideal man has "to be sensitive and have a good sense of humor," Julie said. "He can't treat you like a convenience·· he has to make you feel like you're wanted, go out of his way to make you leel special," she said. "Guys have to have good manners," said Anne, an upper campus sophomore. "They have 10 be polile-· open doorS, lel you inlO the car first:' she said, "The guy has to be considerate and have proper etiquelle." said Karl, a lower campus sophomore.

"Not only Ihe current get out there and shake your tall-end, but also the old dances like wallzing, maybe a polka or two, The dances where you get out there and dance together." Sheryl, a lower campus senior, said her ideal man "can'l be real lrendy. He has to know how to have a good lime." Many girls said that they liked man to be casually dressed,· Levi's and a T-shirt- but others said they preferred men who "dress oJp." "I like light Levi's and tight Guess Jeans," Julie said. "I like cowboy boots on guys- that gives them a good strut." Anne, a lower campus sophomore, said she likes men thai " dress In style, They should care about what they look like." Mosl Lule women Interviewed agreed they preferred athietlc·looking men with big broad shoulders, wide chests, muscular arms and small waists, They agreed that "good legs" are also important. "Totalif deflned Quads and big calves. Now that's what i like," Julie said. "Sometimes the feminine look can be sexy, but he wouldn't be my ideal man," Anne said. "' like straight teeth," said Jane. " I I Ihey're while thaI's even better." If a man has "a cute smile and nice slraighl leeth, lhat turns me on:' Anne said. Many women said hands attract them to certain men. "Sill muscular hands and hairy arms are sexy," Anne said. "Slg strong hands especially." The general consenSU5 on hair color, facial hair and the hairiness of bodies varied. "I like dark·halred guys- ltalian,looklng guys- guys thaI are dark complected," Jane said. "I don'l really Uke Ihe CaUfornia blonde. The guy can't be hairy all over. I Uke a bare chest," she said.

Health Center offers birth control awareness to PL U by Kathy lawrence Mast stall reporter

Most students are unaware that the PLU Health Center offers birth control servicelJ, n i cluding information and presc.riptions. said Judy Wagonfeld, self can�weUness coordinator for the Health Center. In addition, Wagonfeld said, students are afraid that people will somehow find out that they inquired about birth con­ trol. She said this 'fear is unfortunate because all health records are absolutely confidential. "Student.s worry about that." ahe said. "No one can get to the health records, not even parents." When individuals are &e:r;:ually active, (ear and lack'of awareness are inade­ quete reasons for not being protected, said Wagonfeld. She added that it is a sad situation when someone comes in with an unwanted pregnancy. She said last year the Health Center gave 30 pregnancy test.s.

In September of this year, she said, three students were tested and two were pregnant. She added that in the case of an unintentional pregnancy the Health Center provides counsellng and referral Wagonfeld said that of the 370 gynecological visits to the Health Center last year, 53 dealt with counsel· ing and students inquiring about birth control for the first time. In September

When Individuals are sexually active, fear and lack of awareness are Inadequate reasons for nQI being protected. -Judy Wagonfeld, care·wellness coordinator for the Health Center of this year, 15 students were counseled forbirth control. In order to receive birth control through the Health Center, Wagonfeld said a student must participate in a tw� visit process. The flfSt visit consists of a 45--minute discussion with Wagonfeld

about tbe student's health history and the different types ofbirtb control. The second visit, she said, is a <l5-minute physical with either Dan Cof· (ey, health 9Uvices director and physi· cian's assistant, or Ann Miller, a nurse practitioner. Wagonfeld said a physical eumina· tion costs $25 and an additional S6.5O is

charged for a Pap smear, but the counseling is included in the C05t of tuition. The two visits are nece5sary, said

Wagonfeld. so that a student has ade­ quate time to read about the different birth control methods and make a well·

about his/her founded decision preference. After the physical, she said. the stu· dent is given a prescription which she can use al any pharmacy. John50n's Pharmacy, next to the Parkland Piggly Wiggly grocery store, extends a 10 percent discount to PLU students. PLU's ul"jversity board allow� the Health Center to prescribe birth con· rol. but not to give it out, said Wagonfeld. "That's where they dfBw the line," she said. Wagonfeld said that.25 percent of students who come in for birth control choose a non·prescription method. She said that even if students choose a non· prescriptive method, such as contracep­ tive depositories. condoms or contracep' tive sponges. they should still go to the Health Center for counseling on how to use them properly. The Health Center. Wagonfcld 5aid, does not promote one method over another. She said thl! decision depends on a person's sexual prnctices. If a ,arson has only one sexual part· ner, birth control piUs or a diaphragm is suggested. Wagonfe1d said the diaphrogtn is the safest method because there are usually no side effects tothe woman's body. For a person who has several partners condoms and contraceptive foam or birth control pills are suggested. Wagonfeld said these methods are promoted because the condom protects against sexually transmitted diseases and birth control pills sometimes tend to lessen the damage of 5uch diseases. She said that the Health Center does not prescribe an intrauterine device (IUDI sinct'! the rate of infection with its users i5 very high. She said it is used mostly by people who alreudy have children. Wagonfeld said that if students are afraid to go to the Health Ccntcr for pr� lection. they C>l.n alwuYlJ make an ap· pointment at Family Planning at the health department or Planned Parenthood. She added that Planned Parenthood has an information line at 572·FACi'. AI50. students can call the Health Center anonymously or pick up written information. said \Vagonfeld. She said it is very frustrating when a sexually active person gNs pregnant because they do not take the re!lJXln· sibility to acquire protection. " Use it." she sa.id.

Nation State universities in dilemma over revenue

For the second straight year, officials of Michigan's

15 state colleges and universities faced a dilemma: raiae tuition and ruk losin$t state funding, or accept

Gov. James Blanchard's offer for a bigger slice of the state budget by freezing their tuition rates. The schools said they needed both more tuition money and more state money tooperate. "We have inadequate resources, even with the generous action of the fstatel government," Michigan State Prea:ldent John DiBiaggio complained. But MSU and the others fmaUy accepted the offer 1aat week, rolling hllclc planned tuition hikes of about nine percent. .

A Mtional CoUege Board report releued I.ut week found it lrill coat stuc!enta nationwide much more togo to college thisfa1l. Tuition and fees will riM eiPt perceot at private fOW"year oolleges. nine percent at public fOW"year ItCboola, eight percent at two-year private achoob and nine p8Z'0eDt at public two-year colJeges. the Colles-. Board found. Tuition alone will increase an average of about seven percerit at all echools, says Jack Cox of the National Asl!lOciation of College and University Business Of­ ficers fNACUBO). "Colleges are playing catch·up from the dOUble-digit inflation periods of the seventies," Cox uplain.s. Administrators say college costs have to keep rising faster than the current inflation rate to raise facuJty salaries and pay for increased operating costs and achool reforms.

Catching up means increasea of 11.9 percent at Miami, 22.7 percent by 1\186-87 at Big Bend Communi· ty College (WA) and 22 percent , at the U. of Wuhlngton. Te:u.s tripled ita tuition, while Southwest Mis/IOuri State's rose 10 percent, YaJe's 7.67' percent and Minot State College'. fNDI 16 pen::ent. Though higher education may be the on1y industry in America still raisins Its prices at a rapid r.te, /lOwe see a slowing, ' "The figures &how a slowdown fin the rate of in­ crease), and thaf. a bopeful sign," aasem Bill McNamara of the NationaJ Aasociation of Indepen· dent ColIepe and Universities. "But the question of cost CODtainmeDt ill beginD1ng to bother people." It eapeda1ly bothers studente, who are tired of being "treated like dollar aigM" ... acboole "become more like busiDeeen than learning inatitutea." says Col­ orado State University student Jim DeFede. " All we're good for ill to squee:r..e as much money out of u. as possible." DeFede led a InlJlUJ'Ia" protest of a planned tuitiorl hike by diatributing to CSU students applicationa to cheaper schoola, writing Iegialaton Del stagins rallies and clan boycotta. . ; ·"We ended up with a 10 percent iDcreue anyway," _ "TuitJoa � bearly doubled in the put DeF'ede � I .. fiveyeara. . . "They say they need to mere se faculty aalariea." he adda, "but the beat facwty areleaving." "ID the aeventietl, college. couJdn't raise tuition as much as the inflation rate," Cox rec:alls, "and aalaries atill aren't where they ahould,be." Lehigh, South Dakota, Pacific Lutheran, West Georgia College, North Dakota State. Nebraska, Georgia and Penn State, among otbers, say their tui· tion hikes are to cover needed faculty salary and benefit iDcreases.

"Most of oUf 9.1 �t increase in necessary to keep up with facuJty compensation," says Lehigh Budget Director James Tiegenbrunn. "We tend to lag behind in salary increues bec.use tuition doesn't tend to rise as quickly u inflation." Average faculty pay in 1984-86 went up 6.6 pemmt, or 2.6 percent after inflation, the American Associa­ tion ofUnviersity ProfeseofB report.a. But "our i.ncreaee coven . number of needs, " in· cluding computer equipment, climbing maiD� and repair costs and !HIW program, Tiesenbnmn continues.

Frosty

Charismatic coach em p hasizes qual ity i n both the game of football and the game of life

by Clayton Cowl Mast stall reporter

There's something special that emits from a PLU footbail lockerroom. Call it determination, Call it the sense of a positive. winning desire. Call it a feeling of team unity. But most playcrs would call it II spirit of Frosty Pacific l.utheran University grid coach Forrest Westering, to.lost people know all of Frosty's statistics-Northwest College Coach of the Year four of the last six years. in· eluding NAIA Nationol College Foot· ball Coach of the Year in 1983. an outstanding record of 1 15·27·1 during his coaching stint at PLU. in 1982 Tacoma's "Man of the Year," and teams in the NAJA !Iational championship playoffs the last four out of six years. But what many people fail to see is thllt Frosty is not just a cooch. He is a leader. a teacher. a philosopher. a family man, a joker and kidder.

"I used to supply all the frosty malts to all the kids in the neighborhood. " His parents always wanLed him to be o pharmllcist, but somehow Frosty always wanted to be a coach. '" actually coached when I was a junior in high school when the eighth grade team played the freshmen," he said. "I've coached quite a few different sports and I guess I always felt coaching was something I loved and I enjoyed helping people to learn how to play things better and maybe perform at , levels they didn't even know they could."

friend in Iowa and a recent b'Taduate of the University of Iowa, Westering went bnck to the coaching game. He served as a high school coach for eight year in Iowa. before t.nking over as athletic director and head football coach at Par' sons Colleg� in Iowa. He also tackled a short coaching stint in Minnesot.n Ilea College). Westering's success in Iowa grid athletics placed him in the Iowa football coaches Hall of Fame. In his fourteenth season as head coach for the Lutes. PLU lends the Columbia Football League and is a major con· tender for a national NAIA football championship. Westering teaches not just a philo50phy of football. but a philosophy of life. He has been reo.:ogni:ted notional, Iy for his double-win system of the game or footbalL " I 've always enjoyed speaking at .5t'minars and coaching clinics across the notion sharing the double win philosophy," ciLed Westering. "Even though there are people who feel this relllly doesn't work in life or who really f('('l life is a jungle and you hlwe to sur· vive it, I can't buy that.

target points in improving a perfor­ mance on the field or in the mind. "Doing you best is more important that being the best," he said. "Sometimes you won't do your best, but you can always give it your best shot. It's kind of a triple definition of best. When you win you abow BOrne of your class. When you lose, you show it. all." Westering. a Ph. D. in education psychology. says he likes to coach the way he wouJd have wanted to be c0ach­ ed. "I'vo always been a feedback coach. I listen to the kids. In fact, I 'yO p� bably learned more from them that 1 've tlver taught them." One asset Westering possesses and that separates him from many other col­ lege level CO{;Ches is hie Ctuistianity. "I happen to reel I am a Chri.slian coach. Not just a Christian who coaches and not Just coach." explained Wester­ ing. "But a Christian c:oacb." "I have used Matthew 5:16, which is favorite scripture of mine that says. 'Let your light shine before your fellow man that they may see your good wc:rks and glorify not you, but your father who s i n i heaven: I believe that 80 strongly," said Westering, "that thA Lord gives us these wonderful gifts of which we need to usc in our lives to share with others See FROSTY, page 17


FROSTY from page 16 and to rcalil.e the real PQwcr source comes from our Lord." " ) just hope and pray more coaches will understand the gn!st. gift God has given them to go OUl in that arena and represent Him the very best they can," Usually on the delivery side of one-line quot.es of philosophy, he ended up on the receiving end of tributes from seniors Jeff Elston and Mike Jay.

"He's obviously great record·wise:' said Jay, the defensive captain for the Lutes this season. "He has a real con­ cern for each player beyond football. He wants to make, 1,18 not only better athlete, but. prepare us for life," You often put a Learn together by put­ the most. talent together on one but at. PLU it's not like that," con­ Jay. "It centers around ..th."",,; and closeness of the guys. run a team when you have closeness in yOur players.'" Elston, a starting defensive end for the Lutes. echoed his teammate. ''The main thing is that l've IWoed not just about football, but about life,'" he remembered. "You come oUl of a pro­ gram like this a great football player and a great person. Sometimes it's almost beyond words to explain it. Fros· ty baa put a lot into the program and the

seniors really miss it when they have to go." Frosty Westering and PLU seem togo hand in hand on crisp rail autumn after' noons as the pads crack on the practice field. Success often sparks promotion, but Westering has dodged college and prooUel'S to remain a Lute.

" 1 think a Lute is a spirit of challenge and determination. It represents a lot of things," explained Westering. "Things like courage, confidence, assertiveness, determinu.tion, loyalty, teamwork and sportsmanship." "Over the years, I've made e lot of choices and we !Frosty and his wife Don· nal have chosen to come to PLU. We passed up professional opportunities and major universities mainly because we don't feel that's where it is for us," .said Westering. "Donna and I have talk· ed about this many times. My ability to teach and coach and help young people underst.and the concept of life and living and to really get to know young men."

At major universities, it's striclly the X's and O's - the strategy of the game and the recruiting," said Westering. Here you can teach and coacll and really get n i volved n i different faceta of a per· son's life. That's what I love to do and so right now that's what we'lI continue to do."

Runnin'. Lutes to face difficult . seaSon with only four retuming by Fred Fitch Mast reporter In two years at the helm of Pacific Lutheran men's basketball �, head coach BNce Haroldson bas brought home' a pair of Northwest Conference titles and back·to-back 19-9 and 19-8 seasons. But Haroldson has a big challenge ahead. returning only four players from last year's squad. Senior guard Dan Gibbs (6-3, White Salmon) is the only full·time starter who returns from last

year's team... Gibbs averaged 14.4 points per game and was selected to the all·

conference second team in '84. "Gibbs is clearly the most productive player of the returnees." said Haroldson. "He's got speed and 9COring ability. He's an explosive, netting, whirling dervish type of athlete." Center·forward Todd Daugherty (6-5 senior, Puyallup) was an oeassional starter for the Lutes last season and flgllres to play a major role in Haroldson's gamo plan this season. Daugherty averaged 6.4 points per game in 1984, handed out 57 assists, and pulled down 102 rebounds. He also shot 58.8 percent from the field !nst y�. Another front court returnee is 6-4 senior Kurt Nelson, " .. ho saw limited ac· tion at forward last season. Transfer Jon Carr, a 6-5 junior, will see action at center and forward for the Lutes. Junior transfers Scott Lewis and Dan Liehr will Join 6-5 sophomore Jeff Lerch in the battle for the other inside posi· tions. Gibbs will be joined in the backcourt by sophomore Doug Galloway, who

" Tim Carlson may be our surpri!!e player of the year," claimed Haroldson. "Hia effiency level is very high. Tim gets the mos� out of what he's been given. He bas good overall skills and is making a place for himself." Sophomore Eric DeWill. averaged 8.1 points per game for the Lute jayvees last season and should see a lot of play· n i g time. Haroldson said height will be a pr� blem n i side, but the team's speed should counter the height factor. He said tbere will be more run.-ung and pressuring than in the past. The Lutes will play an intersquad scrimn".age when The M..t hosts the " 20120 Black and Gold Challnge'" (see related story on page 201 Wednesday starting at 7:15 p.m. PLU open its regular season on December 3 at St. Martin·s.

Lutes clinch CFL North in .43-8 win over Simon Fraser by Clayton Cowl Masl staff reporter It may have been a chilly afternoon in Lakewood Stadium last Saturday, but when it came to to the gnme, PLU was red hot as the Lutes clubbed Simon Fraser 43-8 todinch the Columbia Foot· ball League's Northern Division with a 5-0 mark (7-0-1 overall). The L�tes turned their last regular season home game into race for the end zone as they piled up MIl total yards, while holding the Clan to 126 yards en route to 22 unanswered first·half points. Quarterback Jeff Yarnell completed 12 l e backup of 14 passes for 190 yards, whi signaJcnller Lee Sherman ended up 7 of 8 for 123 yards passing for PLU, It turned out to be a game of adjust· ment for Pacific Lutheran as the Clansmen attacked defensivel\' with a 52-slide formation, a tactic that places the entire defensive line on the Strong side of the running alignment. When the inside running game was stifled, the LUles look to the air and found clear skies. "We pla�'ed so well loduy in lh!' situa· tion plays. " PI. U heud cOllch Frost�' Westcring explained after his club came up with three big plays to key scoring dri\'e!!. "The defense played relll strong und did wha\. they h!ld to do. "Jeff O'amelll had good rhythm uxiay and threw the ball well:' Westering con' tinued, "Overall. they went to the 52·slide and we had to pass the ball more. Our inside running was stopped, , but our pitchouts were working well. . Craig Puzey had two big grabs for 72 yards, but it was Jeff Gates, a 215·pound junior tight end from Ken· newick. who grabbed the spotlight as he snagged 6 passes for 82 yards, including three touchdown receptions, Mike Vin· dh'ich was held to 65 yards rushing, but came up with two touchdown grabs of 7 and 53 yards. Senior Mark Foege, individually rank· ed third in the nation for NAJA kicks, connected on field goals of 31 and 38 yards, while adding five extra points to the record books. Foege got lhe Lutes on the board n i the first quarter on a 31'yard field goal, while II fumble recovery by defensive back Mike O'Donnell at the Clansmen 7·\'ard line allowed Yarnell to find Gates oPen on an isolation pass in the end zone on the nex:. play from scrimmage. On the next PLU dri\'e, Foege split the uprights with a 38·yard field goal. Defense took over in the second period after Craig Mathiason's punt traveled to the Clansman 7·yard line. Twu plays netted only two yards hefore Mike Grambo, Mike Jay and a host of tacklers dropped Simon Fraser quarterback Daryl Trainor in the end zone for a safety, PLU received the ensuing punt at their own 43-Yllrd line and used only six

plays to move the 57 Yllrds for a score. Vinivich ran for 17 yards to the 36, before Mark Miller held on to a 2o-yard pass to the nine-yard line of Simon Fraser. On the next play, Yarnell cranked. up and hit Gates wide open in the end zone from nine yards out. Giltes caught a 22-yard touchdown ttlrow from Yarnell, while Vindivich pulled in a 7-yard touchdown toss with 3:56 remaining in the tturd frame. Simon Fraser got on the !IC(Ireboard after Trainor h it Dave Taylor for an II-yard touchdown strike on fourth down. The conversion attempt was suc­ cessful as Trainor found Joe Germain open for two points. PLU's final !IC(Ire came when reserve quarterback Sherman hit Vindivich on a 53-yard screen pass that went for a touchdown w ith 12:10 left in the contest. "We stayed with a lot of basic stuff," said Gates, who had to fiU the shoes vacated by injured top receiver Steve Welch, "We tried to keep to our gameplan. We're playing against ourselves every game not just the other guys, SO we just try to get a little biL bet· ter every weekend." The Lutes face an unpredictable

Tips to prepare skiers for hitting the slopes by Jimmy Brazil Mast reporter You spend 5600 on ski equipment, drive two hours to the local mountain and ride a ski lift for twenty minu\..Cs. on' ly to ski down a crowded hill through a maze of people causing you to crash into the never-ending Iirt line. What fun. This routine has become a favorite weekend pastime for many and a winter· long obsession for others. Skiing has rocketed into being one of the most popular weekend activities. More and mON! people are sacrificing their other interests in order to challenge the slopes at their favoriLl: ski area. For many skiers, the season begins in late October or early November with various dry land training activities. Some of the most popular dry land sports include running, cycling. lifting weights and playing soccer. Strength endurance and agility are three impor' tant area,<I that skiers need to de\'elop.

Sportswrap by Mike Condardo Mast

WhereToGoln Wahillgton Living as close as we do to the Cascades means a great deal of ski areas close by. In fact. there arc seven areas within two and a half hours of PLU. White Pass

White Pass. home of Olympic gold and silver medalists Phil and Steve Mahre. offers terrain to please all abilities and skiers who like short lift lines. It is also the training grounds for the PLU Ski Team. which will be living and training there during Interim. White Pass is located 50 miles East of Morton on Highway 12. Elevation: ba.se 4,500. top 6,000. vertical I.SOO. Urta: four doubles, one poma and one rope. There are nine groomed runs on a IS foot base of snow. Ticket prices are 1 I 7 on weekends and SI4 during the week.

Strength

Crystal Mountain

Weight training is an excellent way to m i prove strength. The primary muscles used in skiing aN! the quadriceps and hamstrings. Squats, leg extensions. lunges. leg presses and hamstring curls will do strengthing for those primary muscles. Additionally. doing Homacn and back exercises will prevent leg cramps and various pains after a long day of skiing.

Crystal Mountain 'has it all,' accor' ding to many local ski enthusiasts. Crystal is a N!sort plentiful in vertical feet and backcountry bowls. It offers some tempting extra-curricular ac' tivities such as saunas. hot tubs and swimming pools. Crystal Mountain is located 78 miles southeast of Seattle and approximately 35 miles from Enumclaw. Elevation: base 4,500, top 7.002. vertical 3.102. Ufta: three triples and six doubles. There are 36 groomed runs covered by 2OQ-plus inches of the white stuff. Lih tickets are $19 for both mid·week aml weekends.

Endurance

Good endurance enables the skier to spend more time on the slopes and less time resting. When the heart is not con­ ditioned. skiers get fatigued easily which results in poor and sloppy techni· que. On the other hand, when skit!fS are "in shape." they can ski for a longer period as will as carve clean, round turns. Good endurance allows tnt' heart to pump more blood tQ needed muscles resulting in more powerful and efficient technique. There are numerous sports that can improve endurance. Ilunning. cycling, aerobics and swimming are some of the sports that are aerobically beneficia!. It is imporLant to do some form of aerobic activity four days a week for a minimum of twenty minutes to provide the best N!sult.s. Agility

Although agility s i partially genetic. it can be greatly improved. Agility uses the "fast twitch" (short and quick) fibers of the muscles. Being flexible and agile will improve both quickness and balance skills needed in skiing. Soccer, tennis. racquetball. jumping rope and stretching are aU activities that will im· prove your agility as a skier. Having good agility will make you better prepared for tho.se unexpected oc· curances and challenging terrains that skiers encounter.

Alpental. Ski Acres and Snoqualmie Summit

Alpental, Ski Acres and Snoqualmie Summit are all 47 miles east of Seattle. You can ski Snoqualmie and Ski Acres for one price. or challenge yOUl" skill� on Alpentars sl.et!p terrain. Elevation: Alpental: base 3,200. LOp 5,400. vertical 2.200. Ski Acres: base 2,940, top 3.880. vertical 940. Sno­ qualmie Summit: base 3.000. top 3.900. verticai900. Lirts: Among the three areas theN! are three triples. 16 doubles. 15 ropes and one poma. There are 60 runs covered by a 100 inch ba.se of snow. Lift tickets Be $15 on weekends ar:d 112.50 during the week. Although ski ing can be II reasonably expensive sport, good equip:nent at a reasonable price can be found. There are many pre-season shows auch as "Ski Bonkers" and local ski swaps that sell used equipment. Once you have the necessary equipment, skiing becomes an exciting and affordable weekend activity.

Lutes climb poll to No. 3

Pacific Lutheran got a little help from St.. Ambrose College and San Francisco State University in moving up the Associated Press's NAIA Division II poll this week. PLU is now ranked No. 3 n i the nation going into the Lutes final game of the .season with Western Washington Saturday. The Lutes moved from No. 5 to No. 3 when St. Ambrose, No. 7 in this week's poll, tied Northwestern 0-0 last Satur­ day. That game, coupled with a Azusa Pacific 38-38 standoff with San Fr1lJlo cisco State. Northwestern dropped to No. 4 in this week's poll, while Azusa Pacific fell to No. 5. PLU probably has the toughest game of the final week of the season a.!J they play the unpredictable Western Washington Vikings. Most of the rank· ed teams are finished for the regular .season and aTe waiting for the final poll and playoff pairings to be announced this Sunday morning. No. I Findlay will play at Manchester. a team they beat 48·15 lost season. Azusa Pacific will tangle with California Lutheran, whom they beat 19-10 last season.

An aftershock is being felt throughout the state of Texas from the effect.s of House Bill 72. According to an article in the Nov. 4 issue of Sports 11lust.rated, the law requires public junior and senior high students to pass every subject. during a six·week period or give up excur­ ricular act.ivities for the follow­ ing six weeks. Friday, Oct.. 18 was t.he six·week mark in Texas and that was the day that the penalties for fall term took effect. Wit.h the amount of st.udents who didn't meet. the criteria, many debating teams, cross country squads, 4-H clubs, volleyball teams and school orchestras had to disband. But the hardest hit by the "No Pass, No Play" law is football. Eisenhower High School in Aldine lost 83 players while King High School in Corpus Christi lost. 13 of its 22 starters. In greater San Ant.onio, some 1,070 football players flunked at least one course. Of t.he varsity athletes participating in fall sports, 15 percent, as well as an additional forty percent of the jayvee and freshman football players in the stat.e of Texas, are now . ineligible. Six·man football is common in Texas. Sixty schools play their football six-man style. Marathon High School, a school located in a town with a population of 800, plays this style of football. I n this town o f 800, 3 7 students are enroUed a t marathon High School. October 18 not only marked the deciding day for the athletes of Texas, but it was also Marathon's homecoming. But because five of the team's 10 players are now ineligible. The result; Marathon was forced to cancel the game, as well as the rest of the schedule. Some athletes are t.aking this law seriously like those at.ten­ ding schools in EI Paso's Independent School Dist.rict, where t.he at.hletes and coaches worked real hard to pass classes. But. I can­ not. believe one commenL made by ISO Athletic Direct.or Clay Cox. He said, "They probably spenL more t.ime with schoolwork What. are t.he athlet.es, coaches. and athlet.es· parent.s t.hinking abouL? These kids are supposed t.o be going Lo school t.o learn academics, not the coaches ' playbook. Some schools could take not.ice of the Dallas Independent. School District where t.he athletes flunking out. of athletes were few due to a few precaut.ions t.he district had Laken. The district adopt.ed some new educationa1 practices including weekly grade checks and tutorials. . This wouldn't. be America wit.hout. opposition t.o a law like . No Pass, No Play." Some people are afraid t.hat at.hlet.es who are sidelined by the ruling will drop out. of school. Ot.hers feel that high school athletes will t.ry t.o t.ake courses t.hat. pad t.heir schedules like Underwater BB Stacking, Spice Rack Building 101, and the like. First of all, the argument about. athletes dropping out. can go both ways. While some may att.empt. to drop out. (where are the t.ruancy officers?), others wiU buckle down and st.udy hard to regain eligiblity for winter term. Secondly. if the schools would put down guidelines listing exact.ly what classes the student.s must take to graduate, this would prevent. this "class padding" from happening. The real problem that is created without "No Pass, No Play," is that this non-academia attitude carries over into an athletes college days. Look at. all the problems created in past. by academic standards for athlet.es. Cheating on tests, taking classes that don't exist. and the like. With this Texas law, those athletes are learning an academic disipline that. will hold over to their years in college. Sports Illustrated, following the widespread wrongdoings in the college football. offered some suggest.ions to curb these wrongdoings. Sbarply limit the number or athletes accepted as specal cases. This would require a number of incoming athletes to meet cer· tain standards on national tests such as SAT's, and also have a minumum grade-point average to be accepted to the college. Make rreshman ineligible ror varsity sports. The frosh at.hletes spend much of their time trying t.o learn plays, wathcing game films and studying the play books. If freshman at.hletes were not allowed to play varsity sports, that. would allow them those extra hours to study and become ac' quainted with college. Make it illegal ror a booster to orrer money to coll athletes. I say if a booster is caught offering money to an athlete, what. is to keep from bringing t.hat boost.er up on charges. Too bad all athlet.es don't share this philosophy. Some would just. as soon take ,the money and run. Guarantee Scholarships. I disagree with t.his tot.ally. If athletes choose to be on t.he five­ year plan, t.hen t.hey should scholarships. like t.he other st.udent.s do. By following t.he.'ie steps, colleges can insured themselves of curbing wrongdoings and offer the college athlete the best possi­ ble education possible.

Tellefson plans resignation for May 31 Desires more diverse congregation by Kathy Lawrence Mast s\all reporter Wilh February 1986 marking lhecom· pletion of his ninth yenr as university pastor. Ron Tellebon IInnounced on Nov. 14 that r..'lay 31 ..·iII OC> the end of his stny at PLU. I n his letter of resignlltion. Tellebon said thllL he had a growing desire to return to II more "typical" parish ministry. The letter SUIted that since PLU already lIlust initiate II call to replace Pastor Steve Hieke, who is also leaving in May. it would be a good lime to call a new Illlijtoral WUIIl 10 the university thut will best !Serve the cumpu!! in the late 19805. In an interview, '['ellcfson said that he was not implying that PLU 's congrega· tion b "incompletc" or "atypical". He suid that prior to sen.'ing at PLU . he spent 13 years in " typicu\"' pnrishes in

Lake Chelan, Chency, und Everett. A "typicol" parish, TcUcfson said, consists of a more divcrse congreguLion. with a wider rangc of age and socio­ economic backgrounds, lie said normal parishes also hllvc "'orship scrvices on Christmas and Easter. At

change he said. is the diminishing in· volvement in extra-curricular activities. He said the low turnout at the presiden· tial forum is a good example of this phenomenon. He said that although attendance at Sunday worship services has remained consistent with an a\'erage of 250 to 300 people. the students who are coming to PLU seem to have more contemporary ,·iews o f worship.

When he first came to PLU, students hnd more historic and traditional views of worship, Tellefson said. Now, students worship as if they have learned their pruclices from the organil:ation Young Life.

In order to adapt La lhlS change in practice, Tellefsnn '<niri PLU has addcd Other OPllurlunitic!: for worship such liS the ja1.7. stllling of the Chicago Folk liturgy lit 9 pm on Sundays or the more ··simple· · service held at 9 a/ll. Also. he said the Rejoice service. held Wednesduys at 9:30 pm, developed in the last five years. He said that as auen· dance at weekday chapel servkes decreases, the Rejoice atumdance increases. In addition, he said each dorm not only has Bible study groups. but also a Christian IIctivitiescoordinalor. "We continually need to provide a ,'ariel), of worship opportunities'-· said 'I'ellcfson.

When PLU replaces its paslors, he said it needs to find two people who have open cars for a variety of topics n· i c1uding sexuality. career decisions, rela· tionship5. hunger, justice, sexism, and racism. Most importantly. he said, ",hoe,·er PLU chooses needs to have b'Ospei lo\'(' and forgiveness in their heart. During his stuy at PLU. Tellefson said he has learned to {'ntertnin and accept diversity more readily. He said that as university pastor he has run InlO all sorts of different people wilh different hackb'TOUnds, piety. lind worship styles.

"I've learned to better accept people,'· he �aid.

A church is always a mixed bag of both sinners and saint. God has call upon us to serve all of them." Tellcfson said.

Until recently the stetion has been broadcast over television Channel 8, fitl· ing in around programs on the campus cable T.V. station. KCCR made the switch to cable radio in Illte October when they installed a modulator.

To make money, the station has begun selling advertiSing, Murphy said they hope to soon be able to expand their record library and get some new equipment, In the future, they hope to get an FCC license and a low-power transmitter to free the station from the confines of cable. Murphy said that won't be for some time though because a transmitter costs between 510,000 and 515.000. In addi· tion, obtaining an FCC license takes about two years,

"One thing you want to do in radio is establish an identity," she said. KCcn is targeting their college au· dience with "college rock," which is "sort of IIltcrnative music,"

"When you an a student station it is son of difficult to compet.e with profes­ sionlll stations money·wise and timewise," Murphy said, "We thought it would be bett.er to give li.steners something different. So far, from what we hear, its working."

Murphy and music director Uan Mer· chant determine a play·list of songs from which a third of the station's music is drawn. Merchant said the play·list is from a list of college top-twenty songs, and is updated every two weeks. They don't play all the top twenty, Merchant said. "Some we think will go over and some

We pick what we think will go OVcf here," he said, Beyond the play-list, disc jockeys have freedom to play what they want. Matthew Erickson is a freshman who works as a D.J. for the station once a week. He said he brings his own albums to the station to supplement KCCR's small library, " I play a lot of stuff I listened to in high school," he said. In addition, he pays IIttention to current music. "If I hear a song thllt every,me is play' ing Gnd I can get hold of it, I'll play it."

"If someone tunes in and hearl:! it they'll say, 'Hey, I like this stuff' and stay tuned in," said Erickson. He stays busy in the bootl•. During songs he cues the next record or tape, and writes down what he has played. "Students think it's really fun," Mur­ phy said. "It's an ego trip, they can im· press their friends and gain an audience. Poople are high on the idea thllt 'Hey, I can be on radio.'" There are about 35 students involved with the station, Murphy said. Most of the D.J.s work only two or three hours a

Fund -arive ri ngs up thousands ' for KPtU-FM

by SUsan Eury Masl slall reporter

The sound of telephones ringing was heard in sddition to the usuaJ broad· casts at KPLU-FM last week. AJthough the bells weren't part of the nonnaJ jau and news format they were still music to the ears of station personnel. About 1,687 listeners called PLU's public radio station last week to pledge money during KPLU's biannual fund drive. Nearly $78.000 was raised, making this fall's drive the most successful to date. Dean Zuch, director of develop­ ment a t KPLU, said the station's major

goal was In increase the Dumber of members (those who pledge money). The number of pledges ....s higher this fall than during the same period last year but more members contributed to KPLU during the last fund drive � ApriJ ofthia year. But Zuch pointa out that the DUmber of new n.embers bas il::acreased since that time with 60 percent of the callers who pledgOO last week being first time con­ tributors. In addition tbe average amount pledged incroascd from $39 in ApriJ to 146 last wook. The flllll1 day of tbe drive, last Friday, was the single :nost successful fundrais­ ing day in the history of the station_

Competitors are adjudicated by area musical experts who are invited to ticipate by PLU's music faculty.

Student soloists by Jenna Abrahamson Mast reporter Some of the most gifted PLU music students will soon be given a taste of performing near the professional vir­ tuoso level_ The spotlight will be turned on musi­ cians Tuesday afternoon in Ell9tvold Auditorium when auditions for the an­ nual student. soloist compet.ition will "give outstanding musicians an oppor­ t.unity to perform as soloists with an or­ chestra," said Jerry Kracht, conductor of the University Symphony Orchestra. Winners of t.he competition are deter· mined strictly by their skill, said Kracht.. Four people are chostln to per­ form on a program given in the spring.

The entrants will be judged on their choice of literature and nterpretation i skills, technique, and stage appearance. The concert brings a "special sense of ellcitement and occasion to these young artists who take the spotlight," said Kracht. Kracht said that the total uperience is "eye and ear opening" for the artists. Elltra physical demands are required to project a solo over an orchestra. Soloists are aIso expected to provide nitiative i for the group, which demands a sense of responsiLility, said Kracht. Tho9C audit.ioning must be full-time students at PLU with at least a sophomore standing. Other qualifica· tions state that entrants must be music majors enrolled for private study, who have not previously won the competition. .

Opera worf(shop By Jenna Abrahamson Mast Reporter Human emotion and fantasy are both integral ngredients i of operatic perfor­ mances, said Stephen Minde, director of this fall's opera workshop. The visiting n i structor said producing an opera requires teamwork betwoon the director and performer. Minde said he believes the human attributes of operatic characters appeal to audiences. The 14'year veteran conductor of the Portland Opera said he finds PLU students to be "quite competant. and I,.>ifted, each in their own special way." He said it's fun to work with students, though their activities outside of opera workshop make things difficult.

The performers have developed good stage presences because they are involv­ ed n i several aspects of t.he production, said Mnde. It takes a long time for students to discover what works best for them, he said. He also believes that everyone can and should enjoy this classic form of theater. "Attending the opera is not only' (or upper c1ll3s people," he said, laughing. As a native of East Germany, Minde said he found Americans to be receptive to opera once they give the show a fair chance. "Even when it. is sung in Swahili, opera deals with human emotions," said Minde. He said that people must overcome their fear of unique experiences to enjoy the " strange character" of opera.

There were many memorllble plays during the regular season, but some stood out liS the best. And like every conclusion to II regular season, awards are presented to deserving individuals. The Athlete's Foot Award for 1986 goes to Scott Elston, a sophomore defensive back for PLU and a reserve placekicker. Elston was asked by start.cr Mark Focge to try a kickoff in front of his hometown crowd in Klamath Falls versus Oregon Tech after the Lutes led 3 1·7. Although wary about kicking off after not regularly practicing lit the spot, Elston gave a valiant attempt. Unfor· tunately. after three kickoff attempts sailed out-of·bounds and the ball was finally marked at the 25·yard line, Focge came back in and booted the ball. Academy Award for Best ActOI'" goes to PLU punter Craig �hthiason. After being slightly grazed by a Linfield linemon, Mathiason fell back as though hit by 0 �lIIck truck, causing /I roughing the kicker call and giving the ball back to the Lute offense. RS MlIlhiason kly on the field struggl­ ing to get up after his tumbling routine, tight end Jeff Gilles apparently thought the acting WIIS real. He signliled trainer Gary Nicholson onto the field and �1pthiason was helped off the playing field insisting, "Hey guys . . . I'm all right. Really." The Persistence Award goes to Frosty Westering, the PLU helld coach who in· sisted on staying at PLU when the bus was late to take players to Lakewood Stadium for the Linfield skirmish. Players began filing out to their cars to cram in as many people and equipment as possible. As the gpme time epproach· ed, athletic director Olive Olsen saw Westering at PLU and asked him if he needed a ride. "No Dave. you go on ahead. III take the bus over." The bus never came. Doormat Play of the season goes to middle linebacker Tony Sweet. Sweet not only blockl!d a IIeCOnd·period field goal against Puget Sound, but stepped on and ran over helpless UPS kicker Jim Beckman before !lCampering fOl'" en 8O-yard touchdown run.

Officials Award goes to referee Frank Zurline who signaled an ineligible receiver downfield against the Lute defense against Central Washington. Monday Night Football Trophy goes to Simon Fraser quarterback Earl 8eugelink who tossed the ball out· ofbounds to stop the clock. The only pro­ blem was that it was fourth down. Plays Most Likely to Get on a PLU Highlight Film Award for the pass goes to PLU receiver Steve Welch, who snllgged II 51·yard touchdown pass from Jeff Yarnell against Linfield in the rear right corner of the end zone. For the rush, its 0 tossup between Mark Helm',.

The

84-yard touchdown tightrope spring down the sideline against Oregon Tech and Mike Vindivich's 26-yard TO run i which Vin­ against Central, a play n divirh was counted br�ng six tackles. The Lutes have had an amazing season, but it's the little things that hllve giv� this season special meaning. sad, to bloopers comical From frustrating moments, the Lutes have given people something to be proud of on cold, rainy weekends. Whatever the outcome of tomorrow's game. PLU will do it with class. EMAL-Every mon a Lute

Nineteen percent of all Pell Grant red· pients. for example. are overpaid because of informational errors on the applications. Tupper maintains: By verifying family income informa· lion with thc I RS, institutions can make sure "everyone receives just the right amount of money they're entitled to:' hcaddcd. But as the OM B hurries to complete the proposal before Congress adjourns for the holidays, House members already are complaining the system would invade students' p rivacy. "In an attempt to eliminate abuse in govem!"en t programs. we may also be eliminating privacy and per50nal in' dependence:' said Rep. Don Edwards, · the Democratic chairman of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Civil and

Constitutional Rights,

The withholding will start with 1985 returns. "The OM B is saying to Conl,'Tess. if

your intent is payment integrity, then you must add at least a dozen other pro­ grams (to the verification systems) in· c1uding student aid,·' Tupper said. He said the error rate for all federal benefit programs currently stands at f)

percent.

Allowing agencies access to I ItS and other information-eg., alien status. Social Security files und railroad retire­ ment income-would decrease the error amount by as much as 5 1 billion. Tupper estimated.

Student aid is only the most recent ad­

dition to the Reagan administration's ef·

fort to solve the "payment integrity pro­ blems" troubling federal benefit pro­ grams by bringing in the IRS. Congress has already approved hav­

In August. the administration an' nounced it would also hal'e the InS withhold the tax returns of people who are in default on their student loan repayment s.

Under the new proposal. the Pell Grant overaU error rate would drop "by much more than a few lpercentagel points," Tupper said. Meanwhi l e. the Department of Educa· tion's Office of Student Aid and the American Council on Education say they'll reserve judgment until the pro­ posal makes its way to Congress.

The program evol"ed after PL U physics professor K.T. Tang was invited to lecture lit the universit\· in China more thiln a year ago. Representatives from CUST visited PLU and invited PLU faculty to �ce their school. Last spring. PLU President Rcike IIml Anderson went to China. and CUST sug· gested the exchange program . Anderson said this is the beginning of what they hope will be an ongoing program. The initial plan is for the program to run at least three �'ears. If all goes well. it will be extended. CUST w'as selected asoneof the36 top universities in China. and given special funds, enabling them to btx:ome involved in such a program. Anderson said that the opportunity is open to all United States students, and they and advertising it a t other colleges and in the Chronicle {or Higher Educas h t � �:��i:�::;lk;ti�:s ��� ���;� fer; l c s l' h U i ed S �l � fu � �S: r h st��ents��:�re ac: e cepted to the program will be mainly of

Along with their hectic schoolwork, Anderson said there will be many in· teresting activities and traveling ex­ periences. CUST has already purchased a bus to be used by the American group on weekends and has planned extensive trips· m;gundthe cop,\tfY,. � . . ..... . Each semester a threeweelt: tour wlll take place. In the fall, students will travel by boatdownthe Yangtze River, see the capital, the Great Wall. and many other sights and places.

He added thata fair number might choose to audit the classes: " They might know as much·and more as we'll be ·teaching, but they want to hear it English." Anderson said that the main reason for the association of science with the Chinese studies is to enable science rna' jors to have the chance tostudy abroad. Because of the long sequence of courses necessary for a science major, students cannot afford the time or money t{l take' a year away. This way. he said. they can utilized the science courses and still be able to finish school on time. Costs for the year will be 510,300 which includes tuition, room and board. books, 'and all travel within China: "It's comparable to the cost of atten· ding PLU," Anderson said. Applications for next faU arc due on Febroary 1, 1986. and are avai l able in the Study Abroad Orfice or from the professors.

Students study, work, travel, in foreign countries with local families while studying with American and local instructOrs.

ABROAD, from page 8 'Never has a student gone abroad and nol come back a changed person. They grow, nol only in the classroom, but as individuals. They have a much greater sense 01 independence.'

··Judith Carr. associate dean of academic programs in PLU's Study Abroad Office. PLU hus recently "opened upa lot of programs. but in respect to the students." Jones said. "Muny freshman are planning uhend. They are finding programs to work into their academic plam;.·' she said. Carr �aid students l,Ffeatly benefit from studying abroad. " Never has a student gonenbroad and not come buck II changt.od person." Carr said. ··The.l' grow, not only in the classroom. but as indh·iduals. They • huve a much greater sense of independence." The students "fe-evaluate themselves as Americans. Many don't understand other people." Carr said.

By studying in a foreign country. the students "go much beyond the tourist approach. They learn about the culture." she said. For many PLU-sponsored study abroad programs. students must have knowledge of the lanl,"llage of the COUll' try where they will be studying. Course instruction in English is of· fen.od by numerous study programs available to PLU students. Many of these programs are located in nonEnglish·speaking countries.

Pl.U crt-dit is offere<l fo: PLUspon· sored programs. generally 12 to 16 credits per semester. All financilliaid that a student receives wit.h the excep· tion of work/study and talentllwards may be applied toward these programs. The cost of studylng abroad is com· parable to PLU tuition Jones said. Carr said that living with families (homeSlays) arc the most likely livingar· rangements. Students also live in dor· matories or apartments. Carr and Jones said they want to en­ courage students to stop by the study IlbrO<ld office which has been relocuted in the Administration Building.

Airlines reduce fares for the holiday season by C.r1. T. Saval1l

Mast staff reporter

M.jor reductions n i st.andard coach air f&n!8 will ensble many college awdenl.8 to go home for Thanksgiving­ even those who attend college hundreds of miles from home, Airline price wars began last week when Dallas-hued American Airlinea lowered their prices for the holidayl5. following Almost m i mediately, American's lead, United, Delta, Nor­ thwest Orient. 1'WA and Eastern Airlines, slashed their rat;.ea from 70 to 85 percent. Melody Stein, a travel agent for Parkland Travel Service. said she baa noticed more college student.l making ThAnksgiving holiday reservations in· stead of staying at achool or using leu expensive travel methods. All the airlines involved in the promo­ tion carry the same travel restrictions. Stei.') said. Reduced farea are available for round trip tickets only between cer· tain cities. Travel must ' begin on Thanksgiving Day and end by midnight Nov. 3D. The tickets are non-refundable and must be purchased within three days after the reservation has been made. Stein said the three-day payment stipulation helps weed out those who ac­ tually intend to ny from those who do not. Stein said the only way she knows

which airlines are offering the reduced fares is by calling the airline ticket agent.'!. Seating is limited and places are being filled quickly on thO.ge mghts. "It·s such a recent thing. We really just found out about the promotion. That'a all we're doing," ahe said. Sophomore Heidi Betz said she would not be going home to Fairbanks. Alaska, if sbe had not beard about the reduced

rates. A round trip ticket, which normal­ ly would have cost between $350 and $600, depending on certain restrictions, is now onJy $166.70. "I definitely wouldn't have gone bome if this h.a.dn't come up. I didn't go home told he wouJd have to pay a fee of 25 per­ cent of his tota1 fare, 80 he opted not to stay with his original fare. His $38() fare is still considerably cheaper than regular rates of 1600.

Train can be a 'real trip' by Carla T, Sayalll

Mast staff reporter The great trek home for the holidays i9 about to begin. Some students tr8\":l1 by ('ar, others by bus, and now that most of the major airlines have reduced their fares. air travel is an option for more students. There is another alternative, however, that everyone should try once in tMir . lifetime. preferably while in college when most still have enough nerve to enjoy it the "right- way." Take the train. I have t.ak�n three train trips n i my life. The last two were done the right way. The fi rst time I was with my parents. I was five, I threw up somewhere between Leavenworth and Seattle. I made a promise on the spot to never ride a train again. Never say never in college. It's sur­ prising what a person is willing to do when money is short, parents are lonely, and the only other option is traveling home with a roommate who is a party animal. Trains are modern now, clean and relatively quiet. The rust stained porcelain fountain I threw up n i has been replaced by 9tainless steel wall units, and the hard Buick·like bench seats have been tossed out in favor of in· dividual seats large enough to Sluff backpacks, dirty laundry. a radio and some wine undernesth. Riding a train the right way isn't possible without some good wine. A white variety is preferable-it com· pliments the snow on the mountain pass. The Seattle to Spokane run doesn't pull out of Union Station n i Seattle until close to midnight. It doesn't clear the tunnel until well after 12:30. This is crucial While the train moves ,looowwly through the dark tunnel and the conduc­ tor is busy securing doora and baggage, it's time to go for the wine. There's a good half.hour before the lights go on and tickets are collected. From that point m i bibers must learn to simultaneously dodge the conductor who runs through each car yelling, "Next stop-" whi l e chugging wine on the sly. After a few hours, out of desperation, one d iacovers the "Hey Did You See That." sneak pass. The bottle ia tucked

under the om. on the window side. At a moment's notice, turn deftly to the win· dow, bottle poised. feign excitement at the passing scenery, exclaim "Hey Did You $eeThat?" and take a slug. The problem with this move is convin­ cing the conductor and the people sit­ ting nearby that it is possible to see anything at 3 a.m. going 80 miles an hour. The motion of the train can play a crucial role n i setting the mood for the trip. There are plenty of coordination games to play while moving, including the " Have A Bottle of Wine and Walk A Straight Line" routine. It's not 8 good idea to try this between train cars. I almost lost a roommate in the automatic doors. There is also the adult version of musical chairs usually played on the way to the bathroom. When the train lurches or nausea sets in, sit down in the nearest scat. Extra points are given for sitting in an empty seat. Bathrooms on trains are specifically designed for wean' . . . ahh, drunk travelers. Fi�ring out that the doors open in, rather than out. can get you home free. It's pertinent tl) master the bathroom doors before there is a line or an . . . accident. Once inside the ;>added cubicles. many amusements are available, such as play' ing twister on specially designed diaper changing beds to the beat of the train's sway. Or. for real excitement. stand on the toilet seats, wait for the bUmps and take a fun ride the whole way into town. The real joy of the train. however, is the lazy feeling of just watching the world go by with a good !riend. There is something romantic about the empty. lonely sound of a train whistle and something comforting in knowing you're heading home to spend the holi, day with family. Wine entices the warm melancholy feeling of the train and can abo pass the boredom of a nine-bour trip. J wouJd on­ ly do the train the "right way" once or twice, after that, the magic wears off. it doesn't t.ake long to master the toilet seat ride, and the sneak pass becomes boring. And besides, it's difficuJt to convince your mother, who has been standing in SO degree weather waiting for the train, that your cheeks are red, your roommate is hysterical, and you're happy becaU8C you're 80 glad to be home.

William Taylor, a freshman from Sioux Falls, S.D" made a round trip reservation under a sup«-aaver plan in September that is more ezpensive than the current reduced rates. Taylor said he tried to get his fare changed but was Without the super-saver option, he said he doubta whether he would have gone home for'l'banksgi.ving. "I probably wouJd have stayed be.-" or gone down to California to vi8it family. The rates tbere are pretty cheap," he said. Most o f the reduced f&n!8 are hued on mileage. The farther the distance, the higher the flU'$. American Airlines spokesman Diana Sanders said American's incentive for reducing ita fares W85 to fill tr-aditional­ ly empty 8Cats on Thanksgiving. "A lot of the8C planes go out empty. They figure siriee the crew is going and the plane is going. then why not offer in­ centives to get people to 8y," ahe said. Usually the days before Tbanlugiving are beavy travel days, and. most people return on the Sunday following the holi­ day, she said. A trip of 500 ' miles or less with American Airlines costa 529 one way. Flights between 500 and 1,500 miles are $49 one way, and trips beyond 1,500 miles are S79 one way. American is currently offering a round trip reduced rate from Seattle to Chicago for 1158. Regular coach fare is 1820: A round trip ticket purchased 14 days in advance of departure with cer­ tain restrictions is $420. Currently, American, Delta, United.

Smokers may be 'put out' at U· of Maryland College Press Service

The chancellor's signature is all that is needed for t.he University of r-.taryland to implement one of the most drllstic smoking policies of any college campus. Joseph Gilmour. Chancellor John B. Slaughter's top assisumt, said Slaughter fully supports the tough new restrictions. The policy would ban smoking in classrooms lecture halls. libraries, hallways. one third of the campus 's din· ing halls and lounges and any office in which any nonsmoker objects to smoking. Similar restrictions are already in place at PLU because the university must comply with a Pierce County Or· dinance that bans smoking in public places. While Maryland's measure. initiated by the fuculty-dominate<i Campus Senate, may be extreme, it'J; hardly groundbreaking. Alreadv, hundreds of schools have enacted smoking policies. sometimes in response to new state laws curbing smoking in government institutions, restaurants, public areas and, in some cases, private businesses. Florida's State University system. for example, is hurrying to comply with a June IlIw prohibiting smoking n i public places.

"Students shouldn't have to go out· especially In the winter, II they want to have a cigarette." -University of Maryland student

side,

The University of Southern California and Stanford University, among others. must comply with local city or county smoking ordinances. In all. 35 state! and some counties have enacted smoking legislation affec· ting college campuses, according to the National Lung Association. But the Maryland faculty wasn't responding- to IIny higher Jaw 'when it began di9Cussing its own smoking ban, points out Student Government Association President Kim Rice, Instead. faculty members were arous' ed by the Surgeon General' s 1984 report citing the harmful effects of smoke on nonsmokers,

While Rice admitted "students here fllvor some sort of policy," she said some did object because it had been in· stigated by faculty, but would primarily affect students. Because Maryland students "are in favor of some sort of oolicy," Rice and other SGA members passed a resolution softening the Senatc's measure, permit· ting smoking n i some designated areas. "They !the Ca� npus Senatel didn't recognize that students must be able to smoke somewhere indoors during the day," said Rice. ':Students shouldn't have to go outside, especially in the winter. if they want to have a cigarette," PLU has designated smoking and nonsmoking areas in the Cave and the Coffee Shop. Slaughter currently is studying both the Campus Senate and the SGA resolu' tions, Gilmour said. Once the school's legal department finishes reviewing plans for enforcement, the chancellor will sign Ol'.e of the measures, or a com' bination of the two. Historically. campus legislation rarely is received favorably by faculty, students and administrators alike. but when it comes to smoking, campuses na· tionwide seem to be in concurrence. Stanford. for example, reports "across the board compliance" with its January, 1985 ban on smoking in any open en· assistant vironment. Presidential Marlene Wine attributes such coopera' tion to Stanford's high percentage­ between 80 and 90 percent-of nonsmokers, Associated students member Leslie Leland said the measure "simply hasn't had that much effect because hardly anybody smoked anyway," "All this did was give someone the clout to speak up to someone whose smoke was bothering them," she added. A survey in the Stanford Daily found students had "no complaints" about the smoking measure, Stanford adopted the ban in 1984 when Santa Clara County, n i which Stanford is located, passed a law rjlquir· ing it toestablish written policies, Florida's Clean Indoor Air Act, pass· ed last June, forced the entire Florida State Unviersity system to ban smoking in all public places this summer. Creating designated smoking areas has met with little resistance, said

university spokesman Bill Shade. primarily because students know the state has demanded it. While campus police departments con· sider \iolations of the law a misde­ meanor, University of Miami police, for one, have had no reports of outlaw smokers.

WAIl this did was glv9 someone the dout to speak up to someone whose smoke was bothering them." -Stanford sludenl on public smoking

ban,

At Oregon's Chcmetelut Community College, students complained im· mediately about a campus smoking ban "because there were only two designated smoking areas on the entire campus," said Zach Snow. student body vice president, "A student poll resulted in the crea' tion of many more smoking 1\I'C8.!I," Snow said. Since the policy became ef· fective last spring, "things have been very quiet,"

Snow, who also serves .as president of the Community College of Oregon Stu· dent Association, said practicaUy every school he knows of has enllcted, or at least is considering, similar legislation, "Most schools hllve gone through the same process (of designating smoking areasl and haven't found it a problem," he observed. If anyone finds the new amoking policies a problem. it is usually faculty and staff members who share offices, most obsc:-vers note, Most state. city and campus smoking ordinances ban smoking in offices that have a majority of nonsmokers, At the University of San Francisco and some other schools, smoking is prohibited if only one occupant objects. Faculty and staff members at 80..ton College, all MinnesOta schools, Harvard and Arizona have found the policies try· ing at first. At Arizona, the director of personnel once described the situation as "an arm­ ed truce" among personnel, but he. like most others, now reports compliance, and in most cases, a "happy situation,"

White teammate Shannon Bruil had 14 points, connecting on six"<If-seven shots from the free throw line. The black team was led by the 16 points of Scott Lewis, followed by the 11 points of Dan Liehr. For the women. Kris KaUestad had 19 points for the victorious gold team. all of which came n i a 20 minute game. The white team was led by the eight point of Melame Bakala.

Last week, both teams dropped meets to the University ofWashinbrton and the University of Puget Sound, dipping their records to 2·3 on the season. The women were blown out by the Washington Huskies 66·29, but tmn came within one point of beating cross town Puget Sound 48·47.

Many Pacific Lutheran fans buying tickets for tomorrow's NA[A Division [[ playoff game between the Lutes and Linfield College are wondering why their tickets cost so much. The going rate is $5 for general admission and $7 for reserved seats, and 58 for tickets bought on game-day. Some ticket buyers feel they are being ripped off because the "masses of money" PLU and the NAIA is making off the tickets is just too much. But this is not the case at all. People are going off half-cocked spouting off what they nothing about. The truth of the matter is that the money PLU does make fif any) during the playoffs, goes right back into the national playoff budget. NAIA official Charlie Eppler, who is in Parkland this week helping prepare for the battle Saturday between the Lutes and Lifield took time out of a busy and hectic preparation schedule in explaining the NAIA playoff bidding and budget process. This is how the bidding process works. A couple of weeks before the end of the season, the NAlA reviews bids turned in by schools who felt they have a reasonable chance of making the playoffs and want to host a playoff game. In their bid, the school says that if they host a playoff game, they can guarantee making X number of dollars. If the school who hosts loses money, they make up the dif­ ference. out of their budget. As teams are eliminted from the playoff chase. so are their bids. When the final poll comes out, the NAIA officials once again review the bids and the playoff teams involved, taking into consideration the distance of travel for the visitor and the amount of competition. When deciding what the playoff pairings will be for the first-round, the NAIA takes the geographics of the schools into consideration. If they can bus a team to another site in the first·round, they'll do it. Another aspect of deciding what school will host a playoff game is its track record: has it hosted before and how did it do? In PLU's case, the Lutes have hosted before and the NAIA was pleased with the results. That was one consideration. Another was the fact that Linfield had three home playoff games in last year's playoffs and it was time to have them travel. These recommendations are then taken before an NAIA review _ committee. who accepts or amends the recommendations. The schools are then notified and the pla.voffs are then in motion. A school who's bid is accepted take on certain responsibilities such as preparations for the site. In PLU's case, the school is responsible for renting the stadium (Lakewood Stadium), as well as the people on the "chain gang," alias the guys who handle the first-down markers at each game. PLU is also responsible for clearing the snow. if it's still around come game-time Saturday, and other field preparations. One of the most costly parts of hosting a playoff game is playing host to the guests; in this case Linfield. PLU is responsible for pro­ viding lodging and meals for the Wildcats during their stay. The NAIA picks up the tab for the visiting team's travel costs, which in turn (in a round-about way) comes from the profit PLU makes on the game, if any, as well as paying for the officials and the awards hand· One of the most costly parts of hostmp, aPIayoff game is playing host to the guests; in this case Linfield. 'PLU is responsible for pro­ viding lodging and meals for the Wildcats during their stay. The NAIA picks up the tab for the visiting team's t:-avel costs, which in turn (in a round-about way) comes from the profit PLU makes on the game. if any, as well as paying for the officials and the awards hand. ed out to the playoff teams. This is not to say that PLU makp<l t.housands and thousands of lars and it goes to national travel. Remember at best. 4,000 people will show up for Saturday's game and most are smart enough to buy their tickets ahead of time to save money. That's not a lot of money for the financial responsibilities that PLU has . One last comment on the money aspect of the playoffs and the cost of tickets. Last season, when Linfield hosted the playoffs, they charged $10 for seats under the cover of the sta·dium. while seats in the open part of the stadium went for S8. The NAIA sets a minimum price for tickets and the school has the option of raising the prices if they feel the need to cover their cost$. PLU has kept the cost down as close as they could to the minimum for the game. . ..............................................

For those of you who are wondering what happens when the Lutes make the NAIA national championship game on Dec. 14, here is some insights offered. by Larry Marshall, PLU's assistant athletic director. There is a conflict with holding a championship game in the Tacoma Dome, if the Lutes were to receive the championship bid nce they reached the finals. The MISL's Tacoma Stars soccer team is playing a home game that evening and the problem that arises i . that It takes 16 hours to change the stadium over from a footha field configuration to that of an indoor soccer field. What the two parties are looking at is a change in date of the da the game will be played. which would have to meet the approval a he NAIA first.

Suspects sought in Parkland rape by Katherine Hedland Mast staff reporter

A PLU student was abducted near East Campus by two men and raped on Oct. 26, according to informa­ tion released last week by the Pierce County Sheriff's DcpurtmenL. The 20-year-old woman was taken from the vicinity of South 121st and South C str�t, only II block from PLU's main campus, at about 11:30 p.m. The woman was walking north when she "'as knock­ ed down from behind and dragged into a car. One of her abductors held her in the back seat while the other drove to a secluded area where she was raped by one of the men. The sheriffs department is working in conjunction with the Washington State Patrol to locate the suspects, said State Patrol Sgt. Dave Cassidy. The State Patrol does not usually handle cases such as this, Cassidy said. But. because the victim provided a detailed description of her abductors' vehicle and the State Patrol has access to the Department of Licens, ing's automobile files, the Patrol volunteered to assist in the investigation. The victim was able to give extensive information about the crime, and recalled even minu'te details about the suspects. said Campus Safety Director Ron Garrett, This. he said. gives them a "real shot at doing something about it," See RAPE, page 2

Senate promotes South African divestment by Kathy Lawrence Mast stall reporter

Despite six votes of abstention, the ASPLU senate passed the South African Investment Resolution during their November 21 meeting. Although the resolution passed, for two weeks ASPLU members were under l· i pression their resolution had fai the m ed due to an (lversight concerning parlimentary procedures. ASPLU of· ficers discovered late yesterday after· noon of the resolution's success. Kelly Collins, senator from Harstad, said that although several members of the senate had abstained. she felt the senate dealt with the issue in a hea1thy manner. She said it was important for senators to be bonest and simply admit that they did not have enough knowledge on the issue to cast a meaningful vote. She add· � that the 94:nate needed to spend more time researcbing tbe issues it votes on. "It'll sad to say, but I abstained because I simply did not have enough knowledge on the issue to vote," Collins said. Althougb Jennifer Hubbard, ASPLU vice president, was relieved to learn yesterday that the resolution had ac· tually t-n passed by the eenate, she said she wasn't pleued with the among abstentions widespread

senators.

"I was really disappointed," Hubbard said, "I think by and large m03t of the senators abstained beeauee of a lack of knowledge. By having so many absten· tions on a vote, it carries a lot less weight. It's not a unifonn consensus. It makes the senate's opinion a great deal weaker." i portant issue, and we "Thi3 is an m want to take a Btrong stance, not a half· way stance," Hubbard continued. The resolution, written by Hubbard, makes a plea to PLU's Board of Regents

to look at the issue of divestment in South Africa. Hubbard said that Perry Hendricks, vice president of finance and operaLions, put forward a motion that the regents discuss PLU's position on the possibility of divestment. Tbus far, she said, the regents have failed to look at the issue. "They (the regents) will not look at it un· l the students ask them to," Hubbard ti . said. "This is one place where we could make a diffe:eflce. Yes, it's an ectInomic . decision, but it's also a moral one." In addition to the six abstentions there were six "yes" votes and two "no" votes. Abstentions were believed to count as "no" votes, therefore causing ASPLU officers to believe the resolution had failed

Hubbard said two parlimentafians had been consulted to confirm that the vote bad failed. They learned Thursday that parlimentarian procedures calls for abstentions to stand alOM. Eric Mandt. an off-campus senator, said he was amated at the senate's ig· norance, especially on such a publicized issue. He added that he voted for the proposal because it was well written and that students should tak\. a stand on such an important issue, Trent Ling. senator from OrdaJ who voted "no" on the resolution, said that the question is not whether or not South Africa is unjust, but rather if ectInomic i a constructive policy.

Africa more democratic, but in reality divestment would only promote civil war. Civil war. he said, is not the solution Hubbard disagreed with Ling and said that businesses ar scared of divestment. She said that economic trn-eats promote change. Hubbard's resolution states that the black Lutheran churches in South Africa have asked the global Lutheran community to support them in their plight to be free of oppression. The resolution requests that PLU affirm the American Lutheran Church's stand on the issue, adopted in June, 1985. Prior to the senate's vote. Lynetw Shaw, ASPLU comptroller, told the senate that Hubbard's resolution dealt with a very strong and important issue. She advised senators to abstain if they i formed opinion did not have a strong, n on the issue. PLU students, Soine said, are not forced to face political issues on a daily basis. She said that PLU is politically a quiet campus. ASPLU, she said, has tried to make the students aware of some issues. "Collegea is the one time in our life when we have the time to question things," Saine said. Dana Miller, ASPLU advisor, said that ASPLU's ignorance about the issue of divestment is not oruy a relection of PLU's campus. but also a reflection of today's college student. "It's moved into a me-Istic generation where students are consumers and a col· lege education is something they're buy· ing," Miller said. "They're not so aware of the outside world." Miller added that it is not that they do not care, but that students are just not concerned enough to invest time. in social issues. She said that this lack of is a trend across the naLion. i nvolvement "I was really embarrassed for the senate that night." Mandt said.

AID S may seem irrelevant to PLU' s close-knit communi­ ty, but for two former students it is a part of their daily lives.

Mike Frederickson counsels people with AIDS. David C. Brown is also a counselor, but in the last few months the disease has become more personal to him. Brown is waiting to hear if he has contracted AIDS. Both men now live and work 'in San Francisco, Calif. Both are involved with an organization called Shanti, a counseling and support agency which pro­ vides help to people with AIDS (PWAsl. l and friends or lovers. famiies

He works in the art department of "Sunset" magazine, but the job he finds the most challenging. and yet the most fulfilling, is counseling people with A lOS. Frederickson is an emotional support volunteer with Shanti. He said his role is to Iislen to the fears. thought.!!. and feelings of people with A IDS, He said he i s not there to judb"C poople but to hel them understond and accept themselves and their situation, He began working with Shanti afler his father was diagnosed with a life­ threatening disease - leukemia, "Originally I did it to better undersLUnd the dying pro­ cess my father was going through", I know that someday either J am going to be going through a similar dying situation or pt.'Opie that 1 love will be," he said, Frederickson serves as a counselor to two PWAs, It is not an easy role: he works at least six hours each week, He also makes himself available around the clock should a client feel the net.'<i to talk. lo"rederickson trioo to discuss the rewords he receives in exchange for giving his time and friendship to clients, ient recently who was in his "I guess it was hoving a cl final stage of life call me up at 1:30 in the morning and ask for some pineapple juice, And I ran to the stO«'".and brought it to the hospital.

Frederickson also finds it difficult to explain how he stays motivated to open himself to new friends he knows will die soon. '" guess it'a just knowing thot the lime we're spending together is the only guarantee. J could lose my best friend tomorrow in 0 car occident. You just get liS close as possi· ble and make the lime as special as you cun for them, be there and support them," he .said. Frederickson attended PLU for five yellrs.

I can think of one in particular," he said, "Pastor Jerke... really u wonderful man who showed a lot of unconditional love and understanding." Pastor Don Jerke was Vice Prt.'Sident for Student Life prior to his death in 1991. These are things Frederickson now tries to pas� on to his dients. They are not medicines for the body, but lhey can be powerful healers of the spirit according to health care providers, Physicul conwct is an importllnt channel by which to express coring. Despite medical assurances thot the disease cannot be trtlnsminoo through casual contact. Frederickson said he was afraiu in the beginning. "I certainl�' washed my hands e\'ery lime I got done talking with someone. And I do that occasionally now," he said. But when he washes his hands these days, it is out of consideration for his clients, not feur fN himseU, he said. lie is afraid he may be carrying germs that could attack people with A IOS in their immun�deficient state. Working with A IDS patients has led Frederickson to think about death. That in turn led to his relllil:ation about the finolity of all life. "I know." he said, "whether 1 have Il month. or a yeur. or if I live to be 80·years-old. there's II limit there. There is,n point where I will no longer exist on this earth and I nct.'(i to make it as special as possible." One of the ways he makes life special is getting to know others well, without judging them, he said. He finds it dif· ficult to accept the \'iew thal gay men are contracting A I DS as a punishment for their lifestyle. ' " think of people who smoke a pack of cigarettes a day and develop lung cancer. Do their families suddenly point fingers at them and say 'well, you got what W;JS coming to you'? That atmude is so old·fashioned and bigott'd and totally unneces9ary.·' That's a thought echoed by fellow Shanti \'oluntl'Cr Da\·id C. Brown, Brown, 38. attended PLU during the fall of 1973 whilecompieting his degree in English Literature. He is gay. He is a recowring drug and alcohol user. Ue will soon knoll.' if he is a per!'On with AIDS. Brown first began noticing symptoms of AIDS in himself lust May, lie developed a serious infectIon follow· ing surgery, leading doctors to fear his immune system was not working properly. That is one of the early �ign of AI DS.

Brown said it was difficult to make the choice earlier this mouth to sign up for the barrage of tests necessary to diagnose the disease. "The first day after I made the ap­ pointment I was terrified. I was scared of the thought of dying," he said. •" was not afraid so much of the actual act of dying. but of facing that morning when I hod lagoend have the tests done." The tests include a physical examina­ tion. examinations for infections related to AIDS. and a det.ailed sexual history to establish routeS of infection. It takes about two weeks for doctors to review the initial tests and decide if more are necessary. In the meantime, people like Brown are left in limbo.

PlU graduate Mike Frederickson

counsels people with AIDS

Unlike many men who have taken the AIDS tests, Brown decided to tell some friends and hi! family even before he knew the re!ullll. He admitted he chose to tell only the people he thought would respond with love and support. Although he may not even have AIDS, Brown said he is already feeling the fear of rejection common to people with AIDS.

Brown described his mother's reac, tion: "she took it a lot better than I thought she was going to. There was a lot of silence, but eventually we came back around to discussing it openly." Whether he learns he has AIDS or not, Brown said the experience of facing a life-threatening illness has changed him. He has altered hia sexual lifestyle, using condoms, practicing "safe sex". and limiting his partners. His priorities have changed as well. "Earlier this year there were a lot of priorities n i my life that were piddling things." he said. "Like do people care what I look like. Anymore that doeSn't really matter. I live from the time I wake up until the time I go to bed, not even 24 hours most of the time. I don't plan any farther ahead than when I go to bed." Short-term plans are Brown's way of providing himself and his friends with what he calls a quality life. for however long that may last. "Because I feel that I'm in a bal­ tlezone right now. These are my brothers and sisters dying on a daily basis. And we're fighting an enemy that's even worse than a sniper, because we can't even see where the bullets are coming from," he said. Brown said he is not sure whether his condition gives him special insight into hisclienlll' feelings. He describes how he feel! about facing AIDS: "it's like you're walking n i a room with no Iighlll on. You're struggl· ing with somebody that you can't feel. YOU're fighting against something that you don't know. It's very difficult to put a feel on that knowledge that you might die BOOner than normal aDd for a really stupid reason." The bottom line for both Frederickson and Brown is the comfort and aupport they offer to others. Brown said what keeps him going is the thought of what he is leaving behind. "I might leave a little tiny mark somewhere and people will be able to say Dave Brown helped with A IDS."

Murphy observed what fonner Shanti volunteer coordinator Sea Tracy said ia common to life­ threatening illnesses. The protec· tions and defenses humans use in daily life are atripped away and on­ ly "the essence of humanity" is left. fn a city where many people are terrified of contracting AIDS, Murphy met people like Tracy who see the diSo;l;:;se as a way of ex' periencing life to the fullest. "When anger, fear, love, dignity and courage are closest to the sur' face, we are the most human. AIDS is an epidemic. To some it has also become a way of affirming our humanity."

t began as an unknown inness, striking a small group of people. But now, the Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome is spreading, creating fear in the general population. Although there is still no cure, in· vestigators are now familiar with the virus that causes AIDS. The virus is called human T­ Iymphotropic virus type III (HTLV-IIIJ and it sometimes breaks down the body's immune system_ Infection with the virus does notal...,ays lead to AIDS. T-cells are the fighters within the im­ mune syste� that prevent viruses from overcoming the body. HTLV-III in­ vades the T-cells, weakening them and making the body susceptible to infection_ Once the immune system fails to com­ but the virus about 85 percent of those affected will develop one or both of the rare diseuses associated with A IDS Pneumocystis curinii pneumonia WCP), a parasitic infection of the lungs, and a type of cancer known as Kuposi's Sat­ comaIKS). Symptoms of pcp are similur to other forms of pneumonia. including cough. fever, and difficult breathing. KS develops on the surface of the skin or in the mouth and is characterized by what looks like a bruise or blue-violet or brownish spots. Generul symptoms that may indicate (l weakened m i mune system and perhaps the presence of AIDS include tiredness. fever. loss of appetite. weight

loss. swollen glands (lymph nodesl usually n i the neck, armpits, or groin, and night sweats. But there is not one specific set of symptoms that would n i dicate the loss of the immune system. There are tests, but they are not 100 percent accurate.

AIDS is not as contagious as many fear. No cases have been found where the disease was spread through casual contact. such as shak:ng hands or talk· ingooan AIDS patient.

H omosexual/Bisexual (73 percent)

AIDS is transmitted primarily through sexual contact. sharing in­ travenous needles, or by blood transfu­ sions. the latter being the least common. There is no risk of contracting AIDS by donating blood because blood banks and other donation centers U!'e sterile equip­ ment and di�posable needles. AIDS is transmitted sexually through semen, blood, and feces. So called "safe sex" is possible by using condoms and avoiding sexual practices that damage body tissues �sucn as anal intercourse). Intravenous drug users who share needles run the risk of spreading the disease. Health officials warn that needles or syringes should nOt be shared. Blood and blood products used in tranfusions for hemophiliacs and surgery may be contaminated. but tests are now being used to determine if II. blood donor has come in contact with the AIDS virus. Those . who Clll"ry HTLV·III antibodies in tI,eir immune system are not allowed to donate.

14,125 cases reported since January 1979 6,611 known deaths since January 1979

Although the A IDS virus has been found in saliva and tears. there have been no cases in which exposure to either was shown to result in transmission. Seventy-three percent of those with A I DS are sexually active homosexual men with multiple partners_ Past or pre­ sent n i travenous drug users account for 1 7 percent of those with the disease. �eople _ wi�h . �emophilia or other coagulation dIsorders, and heterosex­ uals, make up 2 percent of all AIDS patients.

Despite the ever increasing number of reported AIDS cases, the generu! population and those who take precal.;­ tions when participating in drug use or intercourse have little risk of contrac­ ting AIDS.

First. many fear thc�· ·.....ill contract AIDS b�' \..lIking com· munion from II common chalice. Second. tho�e who beliew it i� their duty to care for the siCK must come to terms with their fears and bias!!s toward homosexuals. Only one member of PLU's COnb'l"ega· tion has expressed concern about disease spread through the common communion cup used by the COnb'l"ega· tion for the past 15 years, said Universi· ty Pastor Ron Tellefson. That member "'as Tellefson's own daughter and she "'as not particularly concerned about AIDS but about general problems of hygiene Tellcfson said although it is not a pro­ blem yet. and although no one hilS ever contracted AIDS through salh'a. he foresees a time when fear may require him to offer alternatives to the common cup.

" I f il ba:omes II stumbling block to thl' community of faith. pt'fhaps in three months WI' may have to spend money to buy rouring chaliceS Ito uS(' indi\'idual communion cupsl. ·· he said. Tellefson fears the sen'ice may lose some of its symbolism if the common cup is abandoned. But he said the war· ship service and the sacraments are meant to build confidence, not fear. " We want them to come to the Lord 's Supper trusting that He will heal and forgive them. but i f they fear they will not be healed but will become sick, then that purpose is defeated," he said. Some groups within the Lutheran Church have �topped using I.he common cup. The Mid·West Lutheran Theological Seminary decided to discon· tinue its use due to concern over general public health, including the fear of can' tracting AIDS. Some COnb'l"egations never began using the common cup and others have alwa\'5 offered alternati\'es. More and mo�e Lutheran congrega· tions arc dealing with AIDS·related issues. Churches in San Francisco, New York. Chicago, Minneapolis. and Atlan· ta report cases in their midst, some in· volving members. The official opinion ,)f the American Lutheran Church is to continue using the common chal.ice for communion, said the Rev. Robert Keller, director for care of the ALC's North Pacific District.

hI' Catholic Church in San Francisco has begun to take a more active role in the AIDS epidemic. The Rev. Michael Lopes. a Dominican prie.�t. was appointed as the director of a newly created ministry for people with AIDS on August 15. 1985. Lopes has been active as a hospital chaplain to people with AIDS for more than a year. He was interviewed by Eileen Murphy last month for this publication. Lopes spends most of his time visiting AIDS patients in a special ward at San Francisco General Hospito.L He said his presence there lends credibility to the idea that AIDS patients are in God's care. OfficioJ Catholic Church policy con· siders homosexual activity just as it does any sexual contact outside of ma,... riage. The Church frowns upon any such activity beyond the sacramental union of marriage. But Lopes said the Church is also trying to teach compassion f or those with AIDS because they deserve God's healing grace just as much as any other sick person.

must be reconciled with lheir calling to m inister to the sick. Tcllefson said that A IDS patients deserve to be treat-ed with as much con­ cern and respect as any other person dying lit an accelerated ratc. such as a leukemia victim. "My task as a mir:;ster of the Gospel is to communicate solidarity with thnt person. That person is also one fOI whom Christ died," he said. " Human be­ ings tend to rate sexual sins far grCIlt.er than other types of sins. God doesn't rate sins,"

Rabbi Hobert Kirschner, a leader of in San Francisco, ad­ the synagogue dressed the issue this year during ser­ mon on Yom Kippur and compared AIDS patients to lepers in the Old TesLament.

Most church leaders agree that AIDS patients should be ministered to just as IIny olher sick person.

ne of his friends died last month: another died last week. Soon it will be his turn. Craig was diagnosed as having AIDS last July and knows he will die. Now, he tries to make the time he has left as meaningful as possible. The Seattle resident said his life changed greatly after he received the diagnosis. Some of the changes have been a direct consequence of the illness. He tires quickly. Craig said there have been times when he was tOO weak to cook for himself. Craig's concept of time has also changed. He is very aware that A IDS is II life-threatening disease. ,,' don't dare to go vcry far. Even though I feel well today. I don't know what I will feel like tommorrow, "' Craig paused. '" might be a little jealous of people who have II whole life ahead." Craig's priorities have also changed. "Certain things have become unim· portant to me. For instance. I used to Lhink I liked my work a lot. but now. sometimes ' don't feel like going. There are other things ' would rather do." he said. Craig now works with the Aids Sup· port Group in Seattle. He SOlid helping other people who have AIDS and spen­ ding time with loved ones are his top priorities. '"

"We shouldn't become any more scapegoats than we are now " For Bill. the pressures of living with :I life-threatening illncs� began in April. 1984, when he fir�l began to fccl symp· loms of AIDS.

Craig said he has found support and help everywhere. When he first was diagnosed he was nervous about telling people. " I'm very close to my family and I knew it wa� going to throw them into a big Lurmoil. But I told them right away. I needed their support," he said. In addition. Craig said, the gay com· munity in Seattle has developed a good system for taking care of persons with AIDS. Craig refuses to accept A I OS as a "gay" plague. H e explained that the virus could atLllc k anyone's immune system and it happened to strike among homosexuals fir�t. He pointed out that in Africa, AIDS has spread primarily among heterosexuals. Craig said sug· gesting AIDS is God's punishment of gays reflccts narrowmindedness. A I OS has hrought about changes in the gay community. he said. He believes it has slowed sexual activity among gay men and ha� led more gays to monogamous relationships. Craig does not like to talk about using AJDS as a political tool. Still. he hopes that this disease can help change the . of straight population's homosexuality. "We are not trying to get mileage. We are trying not to get pushed back into the closet." he said.

"There were of course the vcry strong emotional responses. 1 talked to my mother on the phone and we cried. I talked to some friends lind cried." But he added, " 1 could not be more blessed with the support I've had. 1 have not lost a friend. in fact. ,'ve gain· ed many." That kind of emotional support is crucial to encouraging people with any sort of life-threatening illness to con· tinue living. according to health profes· sionals. Bill agrees. " 1 think that we have some control in

the matter of whether we want to oon' tinue to fight or whether we just want to give up. Though he tries to work with the disease instead of fighting it. Bill said the things that bring him the most strength . . ...can be just something somebody says". and then I want to be here for my friends." Though Bill has noticed no changes in the way people respond to him and touch him following his diagnosis. he knows that is not the usual case for p2�' sons with AIDS. Many find themselves rejected by friends or lovers who fear they will contract the disease through casual contact. despite the assurances of the medical community that this is not possible. Bill said even though he hilS not per· sonally experienced rejection because of hi5 health. he fears it. "I think on dayswhen I'm not looking good and know I've lost weight, and my face is maybe showing what's going on, that I might go into a restaurant and be refused service. Or people might say something to me. I feel very vulnerable a lot of the time." The challenge of facing rejection as a sexual being looms lllrge for people with AIDS. For Bill. there have been char.ges in his sexullilifestyle since mid·1984. "In the beginning," he said, " I t was casier to avoid sexual encounters where I would have to say I have AIDS and possibly be rejected." Now. he said all his energy goes into dealing with his disease. He no longer has any interest n i sex. What has come to occupy his mind more these days is preparing himself ftlT death. Bill knows he has people who care and

PLU PK's say rowdy image not accurate by Katherine Hedland

Mast stair reporter

They are known to many as " PKs." They are children of pastors and PLU draws many of them as students. What is it like growing up with a parent and a pastor all in the same person? Some PKs from PLU were in· terviewed and revealed some of their feelings on their family life. All the people interviewed agreed that there are definitely slereotypesattributed to PKs. Most of them said there are basically two types of PKs: the "wild and rebellious" ones and the "very straight Christians." These stert.'Otypes aren't always right. Thl'Y commented that they lire usually typecast into one of these roles '!ven if it duesn't fit them very well. "There nrc stereotypes, hut you don't really find them here," sHid Sara Martinson, whose father is a pastor in Anchorage, Alaska, and also serves on PLU's Board of Hegents. "In junior high people would bug me, but no one does here. Saying what your father does shouldn't have any impact on how people see you. They should form their own impressions first," Martinson said. It appears that often people do. "No one ever treated me any different because 1 am my own person," said sophomore Anne Erickson. Jamie Burch, another PLU PK. said. "People haven't put me in a role just because my dad has his." "I never missed anything," said Martinson, "There was no excuse for me not to go to church."

Erickson ngreed. "I was \'ery involved," she said. "I taught Sunday school and played the piano. People ex· pected a Jot without realizing it wus just part of my own stewardship." Often PKs come to appreciate their status with age, "Whell I was younget, I never wunted to go to

Jamie Burch, daughter of a Methodist minister said," I adopted many of my parents' values because they weren' t forced on me. My parents gave me choices and chances to see other churches and I chose to stay with theirs. ,. Carrie Tellefson, senior and daughter of University Pllstor Ron Tellefson said her parents taught her to ap· preciate church. '" enjoy church because of the tradi· tion. When 1 have kids I 'll bring them. It gives you a sense of self·worth," she said, Being a PK, Tellefson said she "feels like I have relatives all over." Pastors' families get to know everyone in the church, she said. and they also move- a lot, creating strong friendships in each parish they leave. "There were always people tak· ing care of us." she said. Her parents' moving, she said, was "always exciting, You learn to adjust to new people and situations." Dave Hillman. a sophomore and PK from Big Fork, Montana, said he developed high standards partly because of his parents. . " I 've got high morals and standards," he said, ex· pluining that if he hreaks them, ' ' I ' m not just letting my parents down, I'm letting myself down, too." Maintaining his high standards sometimes resulted in pressure. Hillman slLid people tried to get him to rebel, but he chose to take "the straight path." "Peo­ ple looked up to me for who I WIIS, If 1 chose not to drink or something, they respet.:ted my det.:ision." Junior Naomi Tribe said she never really felt pressured for not doing certain things just because she didn't believe in them. "People I knew would talk about having problems with drugs or sex.

Food banks face. larger demand by Emily Morgan Mast reporter

Area food banks are faced with distributing a amaller amount of food and clothing supplies to a larger needy population this holiday season, accor­ ding to area food bank administrators. The Tacoma·area emergency food net· work rollected less than one-Courth of what it rollect.ed last year in November. James Brass, head of food alld toy distribution for the Salvation Army, said he has seen a steady increase in the number of needy in the past five years. "The number of needy almost doubled from 1982 to 1983, and this year we are serving another 100 families in addition to what we did last year," Brass said. The Taroma Rescue Mission served over 13,000 meals this October whi l e on· ly serving 9-10,000 meals last year duro ing the same month. "Instead of the numbers (of needy) g0ing down, they are going up," said Mis· sion employee, Diana Jeffery. The Salvation Army distributes 2,600 boxes of Christmas food and toys that reach a total of about 10,000 people. Other agencies in the area accomodate about 5,200 Tacoma families.

Brass said that tbe Salvation Anny has to limit the amount of items placed in the boxes they distribute.. "There are never enough donations," said Brass. "We give out according to what we have.'.' Jeffery said last yeara' donations were a little more frequent and that financial donations and cold weather clothing would be necessary to meet the demand. Besides an increased needy popula· tion, the recent snowy weather hampered would·be donators and volunteers whi l e making clothing and food needs nlore critical. This year's shorter time span between Thanksgiv· ing and Christmas will also make needs harder to fill. Ten percent of this rountry's popula· tion is estimated to be in need. Pierce County estimates are around 45,000 needy thatrely entirely Of" in part on aid from area food banks. While the anow is melting and driving conditions are improving, the public is urged by food bank operators to donate to local aid agencies like F\sb Food Banks, he Salvation Anny, the Taroma Rescue Mission, and S1. Leo's St. Vin­ cent Depaul Service. Other agencies are listed in the front of the phone book.

Travel agency opens near campus

An independent travel agency has moved into the PLU rommunity and opened its doora for business today. Within walking distance from cam· pus, University Travel Specialists pro­ vides fuU·service travel arrangements to students, faculty and administrators. The agency shares office space with PLU'sarchives and ROTC office on Gar­ field Street, near Domino's Piua. Owner Terri Trettin qjd she original· ly approached the Provost. ot opening a travel agency on campus because it would be beneficial to both sides. She said besides being good business for her, she could serve the many travel arrangement needs of students and faculty. Trettin said benefits of a university having its personal travel agency n i · clude door·w-door delivery of tickets, full service vacation and business travel planning, and being within walking distance from campus. " I think it will be a nice addition to campus services,·' Trettin said. "1 want to become a part of the cam· pus and become personaUy involved." she said.

The recent award of the Phi Beta Kappa national honor society chapter to the University of Puget Sound raises UPS one level higher than PlU with regard to national prestige and recognition. A Phi Bela Kappa chapler is awarded to a university thaI shows an outstanding commitment to its liberal arts program. Other than the prestige connected with a Phi Beta Kappa chapter, it shows thaI a university plans 10 develop its liberal arts program so that it can stand on its own, without hiding behind the accomplishments of Ihe professional schools. There are 245 Phi Beta Kappa chapters nationwide. Each year about 10 preliminary applications, among hundreds, are accepted for further review. Among those to, only five or six are granted a new chapter. PlU has applied twice. compared to UPS's five applications. Its application made II into the preliminary round the first time and got a campus visit on its second application. If PlU were to get a chapter of its own, it would mean a catapulting of the university into the big leagues with other first class, academic schools with a serious attitude about ex. cellence in education. There are those who do not think an honor fralernlty system and all its prestige is worth much. Those individuals are narrow·minded to the national education scene. Although II may be true that a Phi Beta Kappa chapter on the East coast is much more of a necessity than in the West, time has come where competition for students, grants the a'nd funds has stiffened. When decisions are made to pick a university to attend or fund, those with "credentials" stand above the crowd. If PlU goes another 30 years without a Phi Beta Kappa chapter. it wJtI no longer be seen as one of the leaders on the West Coast. To gel a chapter, PLU will have to do several things. Loopholes for graduation requirements must be closed and liberal arts majors must be required to take foreign langage, malh and lab science classes. It must also reduce casual talk about how to just get by in classes and take a more serious at. titude about education. PLU is very close to gelling a Phi Beta Kappa chaplet and receiving the national recognition it deserves as a serious In. stitution. But first, faculty, administrators, and students must keep striving for excellence in the liberal arts program. Froot of the Lute

To the Editor: Did anyone happen to read the ASPLU One-Liners the other day? If yu did, you obviously saw that the resolution brought before the Senate regarding South Africa failed. Do you care? Do you know what the resolution was about? Do you know if your Senator voted for, abstained, or voted against the resolution? Do you even know where SouthAfrica i!!? The resolution I am referring to has two basic parts. The first part caUed on the Regents to affirm the church's posi­ tion on Apartheid as stated by the Church Council of the American Lutheran Church. The church's position was to have PLU adopt a policy regal'­ ding South African investment.! and to refuse to do business with banks which loan money to South Africa. The second part of the resolution call· ed on the Board of Regents to adopt a policy of divesting PLU nvestments i with the 12 firms that most strongly support South Africa. T am appaUed that this resolution was not adopted. The ASPLU Senate has proven itself to be a weak organization by its vote last week, The resolution which was before the Senate was intend­ ed to let the Board of Regent!! know that students at PLU do care about South

Africa, By failing to pass it. the Senate showed the board of Regents that apathy at PLU once again won out over compassion. To me, the resolution sounded like a very good idea. I am not so naive as to believe that the South African govern' ment wiU fall because the ASPLU Senate passes a resolution. However, a resolution would certainly be better than not doing anything at all. Unfor­ tunately, the majority of the Senate decided they would be limp dishrags and not take a stand. Can you believe it??l! The votewas 8ix in favor, two against, and six abstaining. I don't agree with those who voted against it, but I know they have strong political biases, so I can under!ltand why they voted against it. At least they took a stand, What I can't believe i8 that six senators abs­ tained, The i8sue is clear, the choice must be made, yet they ab8tained! Con­ sequently, the issue failed. I feel l k i e the students have a right to know who voted which way on the resolution, so here it is: • Fred Simpson-Foss·Abstained • Kelly Collins-Harstad-Abstained • Eric Galameau-Rainier·Abstained • Darcy Cunningham.

I don't believe that the Senate should have almost half of it!! member!! abstain on a critical moral issue such as apartheid. Do you? Bruce Deal

Holiday season brings excitement, final exams by Katharine Hedland Mast staff report er

Snowflake! rall for hours, blanketing I city that rarely sees more than It few of the white, fluffy flakes. Multi-colored strirtg3 of light blink on and off in dorm room windows all over campus. Students pllck into TV lounges to cat.eh their all time favorites: "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," "Frosty:' or "Rudolf" for the tenth !Eleventh? Twelfth?1 time. Tiny packages are slyly dropped off outside friends' room by their "Secret Santas." Christmas i.!J coming quickly, and signs all over PLU's campus show the Christmas "spirit of sharing. caring, and giving. Amid frantic studying for finals. extensive paper writing. and computer pro­ gramming. students find time to enjoy the holiday season with their friends before returning home to celebrate with their families. Decorations went up as soon 88 Thanksgiving break was over. Miniature ar' tificial trees et.and in dorm rooms and huge. fresh pines occupy lounges and lobbies. Parties are planned to trim the trees. and hang stockings. Some students tack Advent calendars to their waUs and open them each day with as much anticipation as they did when they were Others count down the number of days until Christmas with Advent wreaths. lighting candles on each of the four Sundaya preceding Christmas. Stor'es are packed at any and aU hours, and lines are always long. Trying to be efficient snd choosing to shop at strategic hours when shops will be less crowded will do no good. There is no such thing as s "slow day" during the holidays. Impatient shoppers push and shove. fl8'hting to be n i the front of the line or to grsb the wt Cabbage Patch kid off a shelf. Shopping lists grow longer each day. as ....e are reminded to get a gift for Aunt Jane or that old boyfriend. Donn functions give us the chance to act as the we love to be. With our friends. we giggle and sing. frolic in the sno..... and exchange gills. Once at home. we ....ill read all the cards addressed to our families from our "strange" relatives. old high achool friends of our parents, and loved ones who are not with us to celebrate the joy ofChristmas. We will decorate the trees. pulling out each ornament with care. and remembering where It came from. Sent.&! we made from red construction paper n i first grade. and "shrinky dinks' that we baked so Iong that they burn· ed and shriveled, are hung on the tree with the same expertise as the antique angels and elaborate decorations. Stockings for every member of the family will hang on brick fireplaces and await being filled by Sanla on Christmas morning. Food will overflow at Chriatmas feasts: lutefisk. lefse, turkey. ham, rice pud· ding, potatoes, and pie. Many families will enjoy the solemn and peaceful time spent in church on Christmas Eve, singing favorite hymns and carols. surrounded by on!y the flickering light of candles. During these quiet reflecting limes. we are reminded of the reason we celebrate Christmas: the birth of Christ. This aspect of the holiday remains more import.ant to some than others. To some. the simple fact tlull we have a reason to celebrate December 25 is the best gift they could ever ask for. Christmas inevitably brings with it II maJ.-rical aura lOo'hich touchs our lives lind turns an Olherwise ordinary <Itt}' into II. magnificent une.

AS P L U to offer d i n ner theater i n Janu a ry by Susan Eury

f

Mast s ta f reporter PLU will be getting its own nightclub and dinner theater next month - lit least for one night. ASPLU entertainment coordinators, with the cooperation of Director of Food Service Bob Torrens, have planned a dinner/dance showcase forJan. 11 in the UC Commons. Food Service's regular customers will be directed to eat in the Columbia Center. But those who wish to spend a little extra and enjoy a special evening will be attending "That's Entertai· ment"", which will include catered food and a variety of professional stage performers. Longneckers Restaurant will cater the dinner, providing hamburgers, friell, green salad, and brownies with ice CTeam. Scheduled entertainment in· a comedian, a mime. a c1udes guitaristJvocalist, the Seattle vocal quartet Main Attraction and !IOveral rock 'n' roU bands. The Boibs, a popular be featured dUring the Seattle band after dinner dance.

will

The idea to arrange a dinner theater at PLU originated when ASPLU entertain­ ment committee members Cameron Clark and Ann Christiansen and PLU Director of Student Activities Dana Miller attended a showcase of the available talent at a conference. ASPLU hopes to attract many students by pro­ viding a variety of entertainment.

"We hope tltis idea will provoke par­ ticipation from all ends of the campus." said entertainment committee chair Clark. Clark points out that the cost of the entire event is comparable to the ex­ .. pense of odvertising last year's Toto rock concert.

"We are providing all the Toto cynics the opportunity to attend alt.ernative programming," he said. San Diego's Jay Miller will present his mixture of humor, dance, and music in his mime-oriented performance. Seattle comedian Arnold Mukai will also appear on the bill doing stand·up of Master as act and comedy Ceremonies. Mukai is known for his ethnic humor and impressions of John , Wayne and Bruce

Lee

Two musical acts

will be presented during the dinner portion of the evening.

James Hersch, a guitarist and vocalist h'om Minneota, will focllS on original material in what is described as a perfor­ mancewith "a lot of positive energy." The Main Attraction will also appear. This four-man vocal group often per­ forms in Seattle clubs with their up­ dated versions of traditional rhythm and blues hits. Their repertoire indud" hill! from The Persuasions, The Tempta· tions, Sam Cooke. and the Drifters. After the dinner theater. three bands will provide music for nearly five hours of danc{'ing. Opening the concert will be the Seattle group Pop Mechanix, follow·

cd by The Boibs who will perform their

brand of new music. A Portland band, Coolr, will close the show. Admission for the entire evening is $3.50. Dinner will be served from 4:30 p.m, to 5:15 p.m. The entertainment begins at 5:30 p.m. and continues until 8 p.m. The dance will run from 9:15 p.m. t02 a.m. Clark hopes the array of talent will en· courage students to try something out of the ordinary and he beliel'es they won't be disappointed. "This should be an incredible even· ing," he said.

P L U musicians release a l b u m of Bach chorales by Su.an Eury Mast staff reporter For the first time in almost nine years PLU is going on record. A new album containing the music of Johann Sebastian Bach with perfor­ mances by PLU musicians has recently been released. "J.S. Bach and the Chorale" features PLU music professor and organist David Dahl with the university'a Choir of the West con­ ducted by Richard Sparks. "Almost no one has done anything ith BBCh's chontles before." said Mar­ w tin Noob, executive producer for the recording and director of univt!rsity communications. Noob said the ideo for the recording originated this past summer when he led a tour to Leipzig, Germany to "follow in the footsteps of Bach." The tour included 49 people from Washington, Oregon, California, T{'xas, South Dakota, Virginia. and Minnesota. by Neeb and his wife Barbara Neeb, the group .....ent to celebrate the 235th anniversary of Bach's death and the 300th year of his birth. Dahl was able to play on one of the last baroque organs still in tact after World War II in a setting very aimilarto one in which Bach may have played. probably Last summer's,re-creation be the last since a coal mine is echeduled to be dug at the site and the organ must be relocated. Neeb said it was important for PLU to record the album because Bd was one of the most influential Lutherans of aU time. "What better opportunity for a Lutheran university to make a conUibu· tion." he said. He added that nothing comparable to this rocording has ever been done cOm­ mercially before.

The group had hoped to record part of the album in Europe, said Noob, but no money was available. The recording was i Seat­ made at St. Alphonsus Church n tle on a handcrafted Fritts·Richard Organ. The instrument repregents the ideals of the organs designed and voiced in Bach's time. The arrangement Gf the organ and voices on the album is known as alter­ natim praxis: the singers and instru· m e � ur r e i . most familiar Lutheran choral", n

Cassettes of the recording are now available and are being sold by Audio Servic". A special purchase price of $7 is being offered until Christmas for PLU

by Clayton Cowl Mast

staff

reporter

It shapes up to be a n.�ting of blacl: and white with no room for gray as Pacific Lutheran meets No. 1 rank­ ed Fi ndlay. Ohio. in an NAJA Division II semifinal showdown this Saturday at 1 p.m. n i Lakewood Stadium. The Lutes captured the semifinal bid after dumping Oregon·rival Linfield 30-12 and recording a 941 season record. The win gave the Lutes uncontested champion­ ship honors of the Columbia Football Conference. The Findlay·PLU mat.chup fealures a battle not only of notional foes. but of contrasts in style. The Oilers of Findlay thrive on a talented, experienced offense that operate8 out of the wishbone formation and powers over the defense with the run, No one has to guess that the Oilers like to run over opponents as tailback Dana Wright piled up over 1500 yards this year and fullback Roger Darr scampered for over 60 yards per game. PLU, meanwhi l e. fuels on a big·play concept that mixes the pass and run. while keeping spectators guess­ ing what potential of fullback Mark Helm and multiple backs Jud Keim and Mike Vindivich. When the ground game slows down. quarterback Jeff Yarnell likes to go to the air to tigMend Jeff Gates. any player out of the backfield or receiver Craig Puzey, a running back converted to a receiver after starter Steve Welch suffered a severe knee injury. "Our defense is going to have to be ready. They keep coming at. you:' said PLU coach Frosty Westering. "They've got nine seniors at starting positions and they will ga;n a lot of yards in a game. The chains will be moving quite a bit. But how you keep them out of the end zone will be the key." "They don't play a real pretty kind of football in that they are consistent and control the ball well." continued Westering. "They moved a 6'S" 305·pound kid and a 6'4" 275'pound guy together and they like to run bet· ween them or outside them." "The st.ats that say we have the best rushing defense in the country is misleading because we haven't played any rea.! running teams. This will be a real test."sa.id Westering. Defensively. Findlay runs a 52·slide formation similar to the one used by the University of Arkansas. The Oilers can stop teams. as the findlay defensive squad has not allowed a touchdown in the last ten quarters and held six opponents this year to ten points or less. "Two things we really have going for us is the strong schedule we played this season and our sense of character." explained Westering. "Character is something you can't measure or weigh. but just the stuff it takes to do what's needed. Our motto this week . i�. 'Whatever it takes." The Lutes lost a

biz.z.ard l in Ohio. the same year the Oilers went on to win the Division I I national championship. Head conch Dick Strahm is 71 ·26·2 and has won seven of the past nine conference titles with findlay. The Oilers have played in the last two quarterfinal matchups in 1983 and 19S�, but have not advanced to the semifinals since the club claimed the national crown. .. Against Linfield we got into some early jams. but we seemed to pull out the big plays when we needed them." explaint.>d offensive lineman Jay Curlson. "When we st.arted to run against Linfield. we knew we had it going. We wanted to go with a balance of run and pass and that's what we ended up doing. That's what we have to do against findlay."

The low point prW-uction can be at· tributed in part to PLU forward Carr, who spent most of the night guarding Donaldson. "We received a big contribution from Jon Carr in holding Donald90n to 15 points below his average," said Lutes head roach Broce Haroldson. "To me that's a biggW- oontribution than 80meane leading us in ecoring," "Doug Galloway also did a fine job in putting presaure on the defense.

Lutes d riven by v-a thrust of P L U front l i n e by Clayton Cowl Mast stall reporter Some good football teams may have an offensive spark plug or a four-wheel· drive kicking game, but for NAJA Divi· sion II semifinal playoff host Pacific Lutheran. the defensive line provides a V·S thrust that propels all a�pects of the Lutesgame. While many grid squads flaunt a quick quarterback or a stocky running back. PLU prides itself on defl'nse and up front is where it all begins. ·· \t·s been an exciting defensive line this year because you never know what will happen next," explained PLU coach Frosty Westering. " The guys up front make so much happen. We kind of turn· ed them loose this year and with dove­ tailing them with the linebackers. it makes a seven'man unit that's hard to stop." Five PLU athletes see duty up front in the defensive trenches, including Colum· Conference Defensive Football bia Player of the Year Tim Shannon at one tackle. Mike Jay at the other t.ackle and Jeff Elston and Jon Kral at the defen· sive end spots. Chris Lyden has provid­ ed key performances coming off the bench at defensive tackle to add to the power. PLU's defensive line played the key role in snuffing many regular season passing clubs as the Lutes were fifth in the nation in Division II total defense le with 221 yards allowed per game, whi also chalking up top NAIA national honors in defense against the run 147.11 yards allowed). Shannon. Elston and Ja.v make up a senior threesome that has started for the Lutes four straight years. Shannon. a 6-3 240·pounder from Snohomish says it's been the unity of the group up front that makes the defensive line what it is. "Our cohesiveness has a lot to do with what's going right out there,"' Shannon said. "We know each other se well as people besides out there on the field and the coaching staff is great." Shannon says this yelll'" began clicking in PLU's first outing as the Lutes waylnyed Puget Sound, 54·]3 " After the game with UPS. I think we knew we were going to have a real good season," Shannon continued. "We just did a number on their offense that was supposed to be the best in the Northern Division (of the eFL). We took it, not in a cocky way, but a way that gave us more confidence." Leading the chf\rge on the outside is veteran and all·conference senior Jeff Elston. Elston. a 6·2. 21 9-pounder from Curtis High in Tacoma. who also believ· ed in the (ront four's togetherness. " Tim (Shannon). Mike (Jay) and I have started together so long that you really start to blend together well,"' . Elston explaine<.l . . Everyone has a lot of respect for each other which makes the

ingredients for a good line. In years past it's been a lot more struCture up front. but this year we're blitzing a lot more which frees us up a lot more on the pass rush."' Jay, a 6·1. 230'pound senior from Lynnwood, is another aJl-eonference first·team selection this season and has been a standout in the interior of the i Lute line. Jay led the front four n tackles with 31, while adding six assists and nine sacks for 73 yards in losses. But the shy newcomer of the front four is redshirt freshman Jon Kral. Kral is a 6·4. 195·pounder from North Thurston who had to fill the shoes of 24().pound graduate Steve Gibbs and who has turned his size disadvantage in· to an advantage on the turf. .., remembered thinking, 'Hey, who's going to replace Steve after he graduated?'" said Shannon. " The first day of training camp before the team Wl'nt to the French Riviera I locked over at one of the drills lind SIlY; this b'1.ly

working with the defensive lineman. I couldn't believe it. He (Krall seemed so skinny. .But he came out in the first game in France nnd had five sacks. I guess you could soy he's deceivingly strong and quick. He fits in well with what's going on."' Chris Lyden is a 6·0. 230'pound senior (rom Foss who has rotated in defensive· ly at the tackle spot and seems to be in the right plate at the right time. Lyden picked off two passes I!nd recovered three fumbles this year, figures that would make any lineman proud. The PI.U defensive line will face their bigest challenge of the sesson when they meet Findlay of Ohio Saturday at l..akewood Stadium. The Oilers enter the contest as one of the nation's top offen· sive squads with 49\ yards piled up per game with a perfected wishbone offense. "The key for me is to get off the baJJ quickly against Findlay," cited Shan· non. "We have established sets we line up in and we set up our stunts and blitzes off the sets. I like to try to read my man. After a quarter, it's really pret. ty easy to read the guy you are going against,"' noled the veteran. "You can look at the way thtly line up and see where their eyes are. Another good way lO tell what they will do is to check the first fllovementof their head." " Our dcfense hilS the ability to com· pete with those guys lFindIIlY),"' said Elstoll. "We might not keep the rushing average way down, but still we'l! pillY \'cry strong."'

fectionately call "The Refrigerator" found himself in the limelight because, to put it bluntly, the guy is huge. The whole ruckus with Perry began when Bears coach Mike Ditka took a page out of San Francisco 4gers coach Bill Walsh·s playbook, calling for an oversized lineman to line up in the backfield to carry the ball and plow through for a first down. Ditka put his big man in the backfield to block for Walter Payton and it worked pretty well. Probably one of the most memorable plays of the year was' on a Monday night against the Green Bay Packers. Perry lined up in the backfield in a goal line sitlBtion and on the snap hit his defender and knocked him five feet deep into the end zone, allow, ing Payton to score easily. Perry has carried the ball at times for the Bears and has even caught a touchdown pass for his team. Ditka also turns Perry around and uses him on defense where he has chalked up a few quart<:!rback sacks. The Bear's defense has traditionally been tabbed with the nickname of "The Monsters of the Midway" because of its stingy ways against opponents. Perry 's plight should be called "The Media Monster of the Midway. Being thrust into the limelight like Perry has been is earned him some serious advertising dollars. Television ratings for stations carrying the Bear's games are up. due to the fact that "The Refer" is playing and the Bear's were undefeated. The novelty of the Perry thing has become a fad in some ways. Every 5chool who sports a 300 pounder has called its Perry·look· alike "The Refrigerator.·' and there is even a club for these beefy players called, yes you guessed it. "The Refrigerator Club." One school back in the Midwest has five "Refrigerators" on its squad. Mayhe they should be called "The Frigidaire Frontline. "

But what is really ridiculous about this is that a 300 pound typical lineman can come into the game of professional football and create such an air of "silliness" as Perry has. Next thing you know. he's going to lineup at quarterback for the Bears. Not such a funny thought for NFL defenders. ................................................ ** ........... * ...............

From the "For Your Information " department, negotiations continue between the Pacific Luthern athletic department. and the Tacoma Dome staff in hopes of hosting the 1985 NAlA Divison I I National Championship game, under the assumption that the Lutes beat Findlay in their semifinal matchup tomorrow at Lakewood Stadium. Assistant Athletic Director Larry Marshall has been in contact with the Dome and feels optimistic about the negotil:itions. If the championship is to be played in the Dome. the proposal will be to play it on Friday, not Saturday as previously scheduled.

Senators lack knowl�dge of pariiamentary proCedure

He said that not o� l y were those who abstained not. put in' a position where they had to make a stand, but also those who voted "no" were denied their rights , of representation.

by Kathy Lawrence Mast stall reporter

:,fter announcing at the senate's December 5 meeting that their South African resolution had actually passed, Jennifer Hubbard, ASPLU's vice presi. dent, said it is obvious that the senate and its executives lack knowledge con­ cerning parliamentary procedure. The senate originally voted on the resolution, which calls for the university to affirm the American Lutheran Church's stand on South Airica and to review ita mutual fund investmenLs, in itl! November 21 meeting, After receiviYJg a vote of six " yes," two "no," and ailt abstentions, the senate announced that the resolution had failed, Hubbard aaid that two weeks later, just prior to the December 5 meeting, Marvin Swenson, director of the Univer' sity Center and campus activities, in, formed ASPLU that abstentions are blanks, rather than "no" votes. "Luckily, he told us just in time to a\'oid a nasty mix-up n i the senate," Hubbard said. Michael Bartanen, acting chair of the Communication Arts department and PLU's facwty parliamentarian, said that although the senate's resolution technically passed, Roberti's Rules of Order specifies that the proper procedure would be to recbnsider the vote. He said that it ill not legitimate tojust announce that the resolution passed two weeks ago, "A group can do anything they want. But, if it's worth doing, it should be done ri8ht," Bartanen said. BartAnen said that by failing to recon' sider the resolution in their December 5 meeting, the senate abusei:J the rights of the people voting.

Trent Ling, Ordars senator, said that although he voted "no" on the resolu' tion, he does not see any point. in recon' sid;Jring the proposal unless senators 8re wiUing to take a deeper look at the issue of divestment. Due to the lack of knowledge and sup­ port, Ling said, the resolution is not a strong proposal. He a.:!ded that a weak proposal dot's nOldo much for those who pass it,

Hubbard said tnat although the senate lacked knowledge about South Africa when the vote wa� taken, their knowledge has increased. She said that not only did some of the senators research t.he subject, but also Jack Ber· mingham, assistant professor of history, spoke to the senate at the December 5 meeting about the issues of South Africa,

ASPLU, positions now ru n May to May By Kathy Lawrence Mast staff reporter

ASPLU officers will now remain in office from May to May, due to the passage of an amendment by ASPLU at their Dec. 5 meeting. The only exception to the amendment is the freshman senator, who will hold office from-electiontime'in the fall until • the end of the academic year. ._ __ Prior-tO- the amendment, executive and senai:e- terms ran from March to Mitch, with the exception of ASP'LU's comptro� a _ nd programs director who served unti l April.ASPLU's new office terms will become effective in _ the 1987.a8 el.ections. The present office holders and those· of the following year wiU each serve an extra month in order to compensate for the change. . Soine said that all of the university's pla!].nipg occu.ra in the spring, which is when ASPLU office holders are changing. Therefore, she aaid, ASPLU has not been an active part of university planning, Soine said that under the old system, officers began their duties, totally unaware of what they were doing, left for summer vacation, returned for two productive months, and, when they carne back.. from Christma.s..-vacation, thllit term was over,

DOMINO'S

The senate, Soine said, was "whole­ heartedly" for the amendment. She said the new term will enable an experienced senate to pass a budget n i the spring, before they leave office. rather than Jeave the budgeting process LO new members. Th.is way, she said, student govern· ment will have more input into how much money they are allocated, "It (the amendment! is going to make us a Jot more innuential in university planning instead of just being a reac

tionary group," Saine said, Soine said that six Cave applicants were interviewed by the Cave Board and selections were made on December 4. She said the board chose Merry Butler, a junior, as director, and freshman Lisa Hussev 8., assistant director, Soine said Butler has worked in the eave since her freshman year and that Hussey has experience in restaurant management. She said that although the two represent "young blood," they are both very Qualified.

4 TIle Mast, December 16, 1985 To the Editor: A word of comment on and apprecia­ tion for the editorial regarding Phi Beta Kuppa in The MlJ$t. In my opinion. it presented what is. in general. a sober. balanced. and defensible assessment of the significance of Phi Beta Kappa and of PLU's situation in regard to the mat· ter. Phi Beta Kappa is not th� only hallmark of quality education, nor are its standards above dispute: but, like it or not. it symbolizes in the minds of a very large number of people with in· fluence in the academic world the kind of quality which first rate colleges and universities ought to have. What impressed me a great deal about your editorial was the insistence on the

need for an overridinng interest in high standards in education rather than ease and convenience in getting students in, through, and out. Only a clear perception in the minds of constituents of a commitment to quality standards will enable PLU in the long run to maintain and build a credible pr� gram. and to continue to draw good students who will pay the price. Thank you for the editorial. As one among a goodly number here who for years have worked laboriously toward the eventual goal of a Phi Beta Kappa chapter on this campus, I appreciate your understOlnding and concern.

To the Editor: The article entitled, "Senate promotes South African divestment" brings up some interesting points about ASPLU and how they operate. To begin with, do our student representa.ives understand parliamen' tary procedure well enough to be using it? Obviously. the answer isa sad no. When I �ad the ASPLU One-Liners (Yes, Bruce, I did �ad it.1 I had to laugh at their oversight. I am no parliamen· tarian, but it was clear to me that Jen· nifer Hubbard, Senate chairman, sh�uld have declared the resolution as passing. Secondly. 1 have to wonder why Hub­ bard was the one to write the resolution instead of one of the senators. The duties of a senator include writing such resolutions, they are not the ASPLU vice president. Next, I have to ask why Lynette Shaw. ASPLU comptroller advised the senators to abstain if they did not have a strong, informed opinion on the issue. ASPLU officers should be advisors. Shaw should be able to answer any and

all questions concerning ASPLU finan­ cial mutters, which in this resolution. she did not. Maybe this is one reason so many senators abstained. The senators received this resolution the day before the meeting and one has to ask himlherself if that is adequate time to allow the senators to talk with their constituents. I know my senator, Eric Galarneau, abstained not because of ignorance but because he wanted to know how the men of Hinderlie Hall felt about this resolution. Galarneau feels very strongly about this issue, but he s i not in the senate to represent himself. but his constituents. Maybe if the senate followed their ByLaws and sent the resolution to the appropriate Standing Committee none of these problems would have occurred. Maybe this is a good example of why we need to have an election next February instead of yet another popularity contest.

Pig leaves Parkland to reopen as O ' N e i l 's by Emily Morgan Mast Staff Reporter

An era is over-a tradition ended. ''The Pig" has been sold.

.Tbe Garfield Street Piggly Wiggly was sold to O'Nei l 's grocers before January. The transaction will be completed this weekend. Daroid Nadeau, Piggly Wiggly atore manager, said the store waS lIOld because of the limited possibility for growth due to ita location. The st«e is bordered by three streets, Pacific Avenue, Garfield Street, and 123rd St., which creates permanent boundaries and limita expansion. "Tbere is nowhere we can grow in this size of store." said Nadeau. "We can't handle bulk foods or displays for produce the way we would like." 'I'he new owoen, who operate a local family business. aJlIO own a market in Spanaway, "Roee's" in Tacoma, and have recentJy purchued the Portland Avenue Piggly Wiggly.in addition'to the Garfield store.

"The Pig" will be c10aed for a couple of days, beginn­ . ing Sunday, Feb. 9, to allow the new owners time to organiu before reopening u O'Neil's the foUowing . Tuesday. Nadeau said that none of ttie current "Pig" employees will be let go because of the chan.ge, but would be assigned transfer jobs at other Piggly Wigly ,","".

It was !l matter of life and deoLh fO! those in attendance a t th.. Jan. 22 Pr('�idcntial Forum Over 200 studcnt.s. faculty and members of the public gathered in Chris Knutzen I-Iall to analyze and discuss im­ portant prohlems and potentials of biomedical tcchnology during the se· cond of thrL'C PLU presidentilll forums sponsored by the Consortiulll for 1-1igher Education and the Burlington Northern Foundntion. PLU philosophy professor Paul l\Ienzel discussed the moral lim its of suing and dying, while biology professor Tom Cnrlson explained the prospects of humnn gene therapy in the featured ad· . dresses of the day.

Although student attendance was sparce at the fIrst. meeting, the strong publicity of the second forum appeared to draw a large student population. and the use of audio-visual equipment· was one of the ingredients that kept the younger audience n i their seata.

were fitLed in the 40's and 50's when the university expanded rapidly and built Ramstad, Eastvold and other buildings. The old pipes were not removed because of cost. Phillips said the new pipes. which were laid in a '"slightly dif·

Regents delay apartheid decision until April by Kathy Lawrence Masl sIal! reporler Although PLU:s Board of Regents voted at their Jan 27 meeting to delay until April their decision on whether to confirm ASPLU's South African Dive�tment Resolution, Jennirer Hub· bard said that PLU's student.! arebein,; given a chance to "look beyond the Lute dome, " Hubbard, ASPLU vice president, said the regents approved the first pllragraph of the propostll, thereby showing IIgr(>Cment with tho American Lutheran Church 's condemnlltion of Apanbeid, But, she said, the regents did not come to a consensus on wheth('r divestment is a practical policy, The senate's proposal. passed Nov 21. re­ quests that PLU affirm the church's stand on the issue, adopted in June, 1985.

'They (the regents) showed respect for the students by dealing with the issue rather than putting it by the wayside: ...JenniferHubbard ASPLU vice president Although PLU was late getting into the issue of divestment. Hubbard said she hopes that students receive an understanding of the issue regardless of whether or not the regents approve the 5ennte's resolution. Apnrtheid, she said, is still a "hot issue," She said that she does not foresee the regents IIppfOving any type of an agressive poicy, l "I think what you'll see is some kind of affirmation of Apartheid's evils, but I don't foresee any rlldical financial ac· tions because of the nature of the stu· . dent body," Uubbard said. "H the regents decide not to react to the pro­ posal. students will simply let it go by. They won't protest," Lynette Shaw, ASPLU Comptroller. said that although the proposal helped bring the issue to the surface, her main concern is that students need to become educated about South Africa. She said that she hopes students hn\'e an oppor' tunity lo learn the various element.s of the issue. The regent5, Shaw said. have a "gt." nuine concern" about both the morale and the edUClltion of PLU students. She said tpat the regents wanted to wait un' til April so they would hllve time to in· vestigate SOniC of their various policy options. Since PLU invest.s its money in mutual funds through the Prank Ilussell Company. Shuw said the regent!! were not sure if they could e\'en enforce a divestment policy, She added that she is confident the regents will take n serious look at ASPLU's South African Divest· m:mt Resolution, "They (the regent.s) are going to have to make a decision one way or the other," Shaw said. "Students should

know that the regentS are reaUy in· terested in what the student� think. as long as they are approached in a rt'lIpctl' ful manner." Pastor David Wold, chairman of the Board of Regents, said that the regents arc aware of a� forum on campus that is asking for the issue to be dealt with, He

said the regents are elltlmining nll their options in a serious and thoughtful manner. The American Lutheran Church's statement on dh'estment, Wold said, is a blanket statement which, due to PLU's mutual funds, would not be ap­ propriate or effective. He said thut although the regents are still discussing divestment. they are not yet sure whether it is a possible or practical policy, "Divestment is, in almost every case. an impossibility," Wold said. "But, ALC is trying to do so." He added that PLU is just going to hovc to wait until April to find out anything else.

Black H istory events set for month-long celebration by Emily Morgan Mast Reporter Black History l\lonth will be celebrated at PLU and across the nation during the month of February. Dr, Carter G, Woodson, a black man, first created BlIIck History Week in the early 1900s. It has since evolved into a month long event celebrating black history and the contributions of black people. Black Alliance Through Unity UlAN" TU) and Minority Student PrOI,'f"amS are organizing the PLU events for the university'S celebration entitled "Be�,'in· nings: Before the Dream," Also scheduled is a series of brown bag films: a luncheon \Oo'ith local poets. writers and artists; and a program by lin African storyteller. Carolyn Vaughn Young, Mathematics Engineering Science Achievemcnt (MESAl project monllger for Minority Student Programs, said she hopes thllt non·black student.! will also take advan' tage of the programs offered. "White and other non,black students

Draft registrati�n detennines aid eligibility by Susan Eury

Mast stall reporter

College students who have' failed to register with the Selective Service may be denied federal fmandal aid under new guidelines iostituted last week. A memorandum of understanding was recently signed between the U.S. Department of Education and the Selec­ tive Service Adminis'tralion that allows cross-checking of records betweell the two branches of government, Those males over 18 who have not registered will not receive financial aid until' they have complied with Selective Service. "It's nothing new, we've been cross­ checking Department of Motor Vehicle records for years. " said Ed Wei nbrecht. Washington state director for Selective Service. The dcnial of financial aid was approv­ ed under the 1983 Solomon Amendment· to the Defense Authorization Act. Draft

registration was reDctivated in 1980 for the first time since the Vietnam War by then-President Jimmy Carter due to poor enlistment in the armed forces and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Con­ scription was not re-enacted. Since 1980 17 men have been pr� 8eCuted (Of" non.registration, a federal felony offense. The mu.imum penalty for not regist.ef"ing is a $250,000 fine and five years in prison. In addition. any male who fails to register by his 26th birthday will never be ..granted any federal aid or employment. Once the non-registration is detected three con· tacts by letter will be made to give the person the opportunity to register. After that the case will be turned over to the U.S. Justice Department for prosecution. All males who are citizens of the ·U.S. are required to register within 30 days of their 18th birthday. About 5 percent of

We're u pt'Ople int(lnsive institution and most of lhllt money goes to suillries." she said. Jtieke's memo also said t.hut PLU's tuition falls din'Ctly in the middle of \4 similUT universities tuition rales.

James Van Beek, director of admis· sions, said that despite the 8.7 percent tuition increase last year. PLU is 14 to 15 percent ahead of last year's admis· sions offers. CulTCntly PLU has made 800 offers. 9 l.o national merit finalists. "In the past, large tuition increases didn't make a difference to most new students because they don't have anything l.o compare it with. They don't pay attention to those things," he said. Nevertheless he said, the increases will not make his job any easier. "We never have enough financial aid money,"

"PLU does offer a distinct educalion and we'vechosen thut but if it continues people are going to start. leaving Ilnd the Uegents seemed to undcrSU!.nd that." she said, "A lot of it is l.otally nC:Ce9sary. We have bonds we have to continue to pay on · the Rieke Science Center cost us a lot of money - the sewers had to be fixed. These things happened to come up .....hile we were here," Soine said. Being at a Board of Regents meeting you have a real feel for where PLU is really going and that they really care," sne said. "They wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't necessary.

those eligible have not registered. said Weinbrecht. " Every bit of cross-checking will bring us closer to the maximum," he said. The current examination of financial aid recoriis resulted from a Department of Education audit that discovered too many false statements of registration on Hnancial aid fonns. Anyone applying for aid is required to state t.hat he has registered or eltplain why he has not. The cross-checking was originally op­ posed by the financial aid community on the basia that they did not want to be a police force for registration activity. aaid Mark Duris. associate director of finanacial aid at PLU. Duris was unsure whether his office had been notified of the cross-checking but he said it was not necessary for the government to notify PLU or any other uni\·ersity.

Conscientious objection offers alternative to combat duty b y Susan Eury Mast staff reporter PLU b'l'8duaLe student ' Mark Schroeder did not register with the Selective Service within 30 days after .his 18th birthday. Neither did hc register for nearly two years after the ' deadline. But Schroeder was forced to comp­ ly at the end of his junior year ut PLU because he feared hc would lose his federal financial aid. When he did register Schroeder declared himself to be a c:onscientil]US objector. a CO. one ....ho refuses to in combat due to Jlarticipate pacifistic beliefs. Conscientious ob­ jection is oat a recob'l1iu!d reason for non'particiP!ltion in warfare and the Selecth'e Service does not formally accept the CO status. Simply because a person coosiders themselves as a CO he is not exempt from military duty or the draft. Schroeder explains that he did not decide t.o be a CO. "That's just the kind of person I am." he said. .Schroeder said while liviog in Washington D.C. as a-child his family participated in many of the Vietnam War resistance movements. At age 5 he joined n i the 1968 peace march on the Capitol carrying a flower in his hand. His father. a Lutheran minister. was active in anti·war · demonstrations and was accused of being a communist. Even as a child he never fought back when attacked, he said. But it was oat until he took the In­ tegrated Studies Program sequence War aDd Peace at PLU that he found logical evidence to back up his anti· war feelings. Schroeder said the only substantial basis for conscientious objection is a strong religious belief. There is no bolt to check off on the Selective Se,.

pastors. involvement with peace groups. and research into the issue of pacifism are some ways to document conscientious objection. PLU Pastor Ron Tellefson said the Luthetan Church has not historically been opposed to participation in wnr· . fare; it follows Martin Luther's dirC(:' tion on the issue in the Augsburg Confession which condones participa' tion in a "just war'. Lutherans may find it difficult to base their CO SLlltus on religion ulone, Muny other relib';ons �uch as the Society of F"riend.s (Quakers). Amish sects and Mennonites ure usuully recognized as pacifist groups. Tellefson said there has been liltle discussion of reb';suation or objec· tion to it from students at PLU. Schroeder was the last student to consult with Tellefson about the sub­ ject. That over two years ago, Schroeder said he thinks the 'awareness of options to registration and cOmbat is extremely low. He believes pacifism is a "oon·issue" because people no longer think of war in terms of conscripted troops. Peo­ ple think nuclear war is far removed from the traditional soldier io the field. said Schroeder. But, he said. if there is a war troops will probably. be involved. "Any male student on' this campus has the potential of being drafted tomorrow," he said. Schroeder is angry that financial aid records are being chocked and he considers it aD infringement of C()n' stitutional rights. "I think it is very stupid. It's a bad precedent to involve the educational system with a oegative and pro­ hibitive aspect of govi!rnment," he said. Despite his pacifistic beliefs. Schroeder is hoping to work with the Foreign Service of the U.S. State . Department. He wants to try t() ' change the system from the ioside. "I'd like to make sure there is at least one voice of dissent being heard."

6 The Mast, February 7, 1986

Editorial PLU's Board of Regents chose last week to delay untlt April their response to ASPLU's South African Investment Resolution, caus­ ing speculation that they are skirting the issue of dealing with apartheid. The regents reasoned the three·month period Is necessary to pro· perly address apartheid. and we (The Mast) are willing to wait on the condition that PLU does Indeed take a strong stance against apar· theid, including the guarantee thal lhe university does nqt and wilt not financially support U.S. companies doing business with the repressive South African regime. At last Monday's regents meeting, the Finance Committee was to address the ASPlU proposal that the university accept the American Lutheran Church's recommendation for all ALC-related institutions concerning apartheid. This recommendation includes reviewing mutual fund investments and divesting all Investments in the 12 businesses recognized as the main supporters of South Africa. The regents chose not to address the proposal last week, ciUng several reasons, inCluding the need to allow the Committee of Stu­ dent Ufe and the Committee of Academic Affairs to look into forums and other vehicles to educate and inform students. The regents were correct in this decision. recognizing that many PlU students are oblivious to the blatanlly racist crimes of South Africa's apartheid policy. It is a shame that in 1986 a unIversity must take measures to Inform its student population of the evils of apartheid while other Institutions have been dealing with this Issue throughout the past decade. Despite this sound jl.ldgement on the part of the regents, they made absolutely no indication that they plan to take any action toward guaranteeing that PLU will avoid investments that benlfit South Africa. This Is where they failed to show true commitment to opposing apartheid. Many of the regents expressed a concern that they could not af­ fect the type of investments made through PLU's mutual fund, which is managed by the Frank Russell Company. If Investigation shows that this fund does make investments I n U.S. companies dOing business with South Africa, PLU has tile op­ lion of demanding that Frank Russell create an "apartheld·free" mutual fun d. 1f such a req uest is denied, PLU is free to seek another investment firm which can provide a such a fund for morally·; conscious investors.

We applaud the regents for their decision to Inform students 01 the racism of apartheid, but we strongly recommend that they take moral aclions beyond discussing injustices on another continent. ·Oavld Steves

On January 6. I traveled to Mexico and Central America, with my wife. Martis. and six�n others from yarious

Commentary parts of the U.S. We were on a fifteen day s�udy tour sponsored by the Center for Global Service and Education at Augaburg College. We went hoping to find something about what wss happen­ ing south of our paper bor.der. Instead we were found by a' small army of people who captured us snd took us into their lives. Blanca Rosa. 13. lives with her mother, sister. two brothers and a . cousin. in a barrio of about 5.000 people called Apante. in the city of Matagolpa. in the northern coffee growing region of Nicaragua. Blanca attached herself to us almost (rom the moment our group arrived in Apante, as we crowded into a large front room of one of the houses and heard y<arm words of welcome. When we arrived at our assigned place Blanca Rosa entered with us. We assum· ed she would soon leave for her home un' til we realized that this was her home. No adults were there. Just five children. The oldest. Gelen. 18. invi� us to sit down. For the next hour we flll had a great time trying to communicate in signs. looks. sounds. and pen and

. paper

At about 10:30 ,their mother arrived home. Using our makeshift language skills we learned her name was and that she was just returning from work at the hospital in Matagajpa. She had walked home, of courBe, up the steep, rutted dirt streets. She was tired but greeted us wannJy. After a half-hour of" conversation" it was bedtime. I think we displaced Juan Carlos and Noel from their bed. The six of them slept in the back part of the one room house which was divided by draped cloths. The next morning I needed some water for my contact lenses and asked Blanca for "agua," one of the few Spanish words I know. She went to the bad!: room and quickly returned with'a full glass. Now at home. when I effortlessly turn the faucet handle. I often think of her. The people at Apante can fill their water barrels one out of every thrt.'e days 'from a well that serves two other barrios. Water there is aprecious commodity. Later we learned that the community had dreams and plans to develop their own water supply from another hillside source. It would cost over a million cor­ dobas for the necessary plastic pipe and other equipment. much more than they together could coma up with. For us it would be a fairly small amount. about . S2,5OO. I couldn't help but be aware of a bitter irony. My country is sending millions of �ollw:s to Nicaragua. But not to help the residents of cash·poor communities like Apante buy pipe so th�y can have their own supply of potable wster, or puchase books and supplies for their school. Rather. it is used to supply the "Con· tras" who want to kill the revolution in progress n i Nicaragua. The masters of doublespeak n i our government have dubbed them "freedom fighters." Lilian nnd her children know they are not freedom fighters. Here in coffee-growing country vig ilance is essential. b«ause a main goal of the ContTBs is to disrupt t,pc

harvest. Common tactics are to bum villages and kill civilians. So the adults ofApante take their tumspatrolling the community w ith twelve guards on duty throughout the njght. The night we·were there the guard was doubled to ensure that we North Americans would feel safe. Another irony.

Lilian,

And my first day back home I z:esd the administration is asking Congress to in­ crease our aid to the Contras. including millions of dollars for weapons. The pe0ple of Apante are baffled that the U.S. government sends money to b.elp the Contras. . They know that 46 of the top 48 Con­ tra leaders were commanders in Somo;!:a's National Guard. They know what life under Somozp was like and they are determined to prevent a return

to a Somoza style go,:,�rnment. The people of Apa nte will never give up or give in. They lerveJJtly hope that enough Americans will take the message to our Congress to stop funding the Con­ tras. But if the funding continues. even if it is increased. they will oontinue on the path they·vEl begun. Like us, f!.ll they really want is a chance to live. Their determination in the face of incomprehensible and vicious forces is as boundless as their car.e for one another, and amazingly. for us. their main oppressorfl. Blanca Rosa is the symbol for me of trus rich, miraculous, indomitable spirit, that I felt up dose in hundreds of Nicaraguans, Salvadorans, and Mex­ icans. and that I saw from a distance in thousands more. In the next few weeks I want to con· tinue telling their story.

And since it is an Alpha Psi Omega prodUCLion. normal university bureaucratic restraint is absent allowing the per· formers to be a bit more controversial. i much The first half of the drama s better than t�e post·intermission playlets.

He and the produc�!r argue over the writer's belief that ".3 naked man is not sexy _. he is ridiculous.

Craig is a husband trying to save his marriage by preventing his wife from buying twin i a mattress store beds. The scene is set n lind Craig's sop�sticated physical com· edy is the rughlight of the enLire production. But this is not a predictable sex com· edy (e.g. "Three's Company").

The third scene follows a husband and wife who disagree on the best way to deal with their childrens' burgeoning sexual interests. Trus is the least en­ joyable of the (our playlets not only i ton� because it differs so drastically n from what came before. but also because it is acted at a fever pitch throughout . The result leaves audience members with the same feeling as when one listens to high-pitched !;Creams for an hour. The only bright spot in this scene is the performance of Jennifer Bridwell. She brings more emotion to her five­ minute role as the teenage daughter than the characters muster in the re­ maining 30 minutes. The final playlet begins slowly but the audience soon warms up to the two characters, an elderly man and woman who reminisce about past loves. The make-up and e:w:pressions of the actors. Paul Gould and Leah Coloff, realistically oge them sixty years. There is no trouble believing their characters. I t is a sweet scene with little drama in· volved: it simply gives the viewer food for thought about life and what makes it worth Jiving. The only problem with You Know I ('an't Hear You... is the second half. And while that may be a glaring deficiency, the first half of the play compensates for this shortcoming. One of the best things about this pro­ duction is that is being staged in the I'>'lemorial Theater Studio in the Memorial Gymnasium.

It took a lot of fai th and hnrd work but because of those eUortlJ PLU will host itll first annual Northwest Jazz Festival tonightand tomorrow. World renown trumpeter Freddie Hubbard and alto saxophonist Richie Cole will perform tonight at 8:15 in Olson Auditorium. Tomorrow night the Grammy Award nominated vocal quartet Rm-e Silk will be in concert 9:15. Both shows are will be in Olson Auditorium. PLU students may pur­ chase tickets at the UC information desk for 51. In addition. high school and coUege jan bands and choirs will perform for the next two days in a variety of campus locations (see Schedule of Events). Ad­ mission to these performances are free. PLU music student Elizabeth Walcyzk completed the final details to aalisfy the ntricate i demand! of a festival of this scale. It proved an ex· haustive UlSk. she said. · As 'assistant director of the festival. she said, she now . realiUlS the "outrageous" planning that was needed to" c1ean up all the loose ends" and coor­ dinate the performers. Wal�yk has been working with PLU Music Organizations Director Noel Abrahamson ever since Iasl summl!!'. when the major performers began con' · sidering the· contracts offered by the university. The idea for the festival originated· as an outgrowth of PLU's Northwest. Summer Music and Jazz

Cam•.

Abrahamson said that there was a need for this type of festival to be pro­ vided in the area, primarily 88 a means for bringing studeri� to the PLU com· munity, but also as a vital education resource for northwest educators and authorities who work with jau forms. Artist 8eTies previously considered bringing a leading jUt performer to the campus this year, sai(i Marvin Swenson. the director of Campus Activities. That was when Abrahamson presented his idea to the Artillt Series committee and the resulting collabOration made thO! plan a reality.

'Tve seen a positive reaction to the big names that were brought in." said Walcyzk. "Freddie Hubbard is known as one of the great jazz legends," said Abraham­ son, "and Richie (Cole) is capable of outstanding technique as well as pre9Cn' ting a lively. entertaining program." "The group Rare Silk performs with distinct, fun vivacity in vocal singing. which is innovative of the SO's," he continued. In addition. PLU's Jau Ensemble will take ·a prominent place among the per· f.mner! by working with Los Angeles composer and studio sllXophonist Tom Kubis, Abrahamson said. "This is going to be a continuing thing, and our falih is now that aU the grounds have been covered for puUing thi9 off," he said.

Choosing a distance company is a lot llice choosing a roommate.

It's beHer to know what they're like before you move in. .

Living together with someone for the first time can be an "educational" experience. And living with a long distance company isn't any different. Because some companies may not give you all the services you're used to getting from AT&T. For instance, with some companies you have to spend a certain amount before you qualify for their special volume discounts. With some others, voice quality may vary. But when you choose AT&T, there won't be any surprises when you move in. You'll ger the

same high-qualitY, trouble-free . service you're used to. With calls that sound as close as next door. Guaranteed 60% and 400/0 discounts off our Day Rate-so you can talk during the times you can relax. Immediate credit for wrong numbers . . Operator assistance and collect calling. So when you're asked to choose a long dis­ tance company, choose AT&T. Because whether you're into Mozart ·or metal, quality is the one thing everyone can agree on.

Reach aut and touch someone!

The right choice.

� ibbs plays leadership role for 'Runnin' Lutes' .

by Clayton Cowl Mast Star! Reporter

Thirty·six points, a school record of 17 field goals. and rive assist.! in one night. may seem like a fantasy offensive show to most. hoopsters, but Pacific Lutheran guard Dan Gibbsjust takes it in stride. Gibbs. a 6"3"' senior from White &lImon, connected on 17 of 22 field goal attempts and hit 2 of 3 conversions at the fl"1?e throw line en route to a 82-68 drubbing of Whitworth on January 28. "I really didn't know about the record until the last 46 seconds of the game," s!lid Gibbs. a two-year starter for he Lutes. " At that lime, the guys were Lossing the baJJ to me and telling me to :.hool. I thought. 'What for?'" Although citing defense as being the name of the gnme. Gibbs is no stranger t.o the offensive end of the courL "He's a very motivated offensivo pla:,'er, esp<.'cially in the opcn·noor game," explained Lutes head conch Bruce Haroldson. "He has matured con· siderably in the last two-years. He has developed good patience and he knows when to tum it up and when to back off." Gibbs played two years at Centralia Community College before transferring to PLU as a junior. Named a second learn all·NCIC pick last year, he has been an offensive spar� plug the entire season. "A big part of my role is scoring." ad· mitted Gibbs. "But I don't really set OUt before a game an(J try to score 1 8 points. If I'm hitting. fine. But if I'm not, that's okay. too." Gibbs leads a group of five PLU starters who have led the NCIC entire season. Despite lack of size. the Lutes . continue to capitaliu on an unpredic­ table fast break game and a relentless defense.

. "We're really consistent defensively," said Gibbs. "We play a lot of man to man and you don't see that too much any more. A lot of teams will play some type of UlIlC. We play a 'pick up' defense where we make them pick the ball up and force a stick situation with a trap of some kind."

"We figure we should play our best defense every night. Some nights the of· fense might not be there, but the defense will make up for that. Defense is our main conc;ern," ho said.

WE' need oxygen in order to change the hydro�'Cn in our bodies to water and energy. 1 f a person is e:octrtlmeiy overweight. then.' is a huge amount of hydrogen which is unable to burn up. The reason is because in an untrained body. oxygen cannOL be efficient.ly delivered or it is in too shorL of supply. Oxygen is e1so nl!i:essary for the heart.

exercise will reap the benefits no matter what the sport or level of competition. Another foctor often neglected is stress. Stress is clefined as pressure or force exerted upon an organism that tends to cause strain. Stress is pratical· l�' anything ill the environment that causes feelings that arc different from the norm. Consider the countless situa· tions in life thoL cause unsettled fet'lings.

P L U braces for federa l budget cuts

February 14, 1986 Pacific 'Lutheran University, Tacoma WA 98447

Play it again, Wally

by Susan Eury Mast staff reporter PLU President William Rieke believes the newly passd Gramm-Rudman balanced budget amendm<!nt "will im­ pact the whole fabric of our society," But. he said. once the public becomes aware of the costs of Gramm-Rudman changes will be made in the law. The effect of Gramm-Rudman on PLU students could be sub9t.antial, said Rieke. \Vjl,h federal financial aid cuts of 4.3 percenl expected by March I, many student.! will be unable to receive federal loans. Despit.e the ne�live economic impact on the university. Rieke said the t ��:6r!:e��; ��i�{��tDd�i��� will not use tuition increases to offset federal funding losses. "It would be counterproductive to ask for more tuition from students who are having their f ial aid cut already," he said. PLU administrator!! are con!!idering cing plans to help new creative 8tudent.!l compensate for federal aid. University officen are negotiating with loeal banks to provide loans to atudent.!l at lower than market interest rates. These loans would be guaranteed by PLU. This plan was suggested before the advent of Gramm·Rudman, he !!aid. Applications would be analyzed by the PLU financial aid office on the basi!! of need n i a manner similar to the way it currently scholarship makes determination!!. Rieke said he is ' not worried about students defaulting on !!uch loans bccau!IC PLU's rate of default in the past has been four to five percent, com· parably lower than state-owned colleges. The president docs not think state work·study monies or need grants will beimpucted by Gr -Rudman cuts. Despite the n i ing costs of atten· dance, the number of students opplying to PLU has remained steady, he said. Because of this, the president believes any budget cutbacks would be the wrong way to compensate for the Gramm-Rudman. "In these very difficult time!! our ap­ plicant rate is not going down. So for us g or cutting the to consider fl budget. . . would be a great error," he said. Instead, the university will try to be more creative with student bills, offer­ ing various pA)"Tllent plan!! and counsel· ing parent.!l whose children may even· tually come to PLU. University offlcers have agreed to !!tick by the Five-Year Plan announced ot Ian fall's faculty conference. The plan calls for a one to 1.5 percent yearly in· crease in enrollment over the nest five years. One way to attract student.!l, said Rieke, i!! to continue to improve PLU facilitie!!. He believes this is money well spat. Rieke does not espect PLU'I endow· ment to be. affected by federal funding. In fact. fundraising efforts have been in.

The endowment is growing more quickly because of the bullish stock market, he said. But it is still far below what it should be for a university of PLU's size. Rieke said that no faculty or staff positions will be cut if the university must tighten its belt. But, he said, if an employee quit!! or is terminated the responsible administrator must address the n ity of main the posi· t ion. He or she must also e the possible absorption of that position. One area of the university that may be affected by the G ·Rudman cut· backs will be those dependent on grant.!l. Rieke said department.!l such ss the Family and Child Center located at East Campus could lose funding from block grants for community development. Other governmental grants may be unavailable, as weU. No staff or faculty cut or f s i planned, said Rieke. But in a worst case scenario, anticipating full im· plementation of the G -Rudman amendment which calls for a 50 percent funding cut in student aid, it is possible that PLU will have to fll"il some employees, he said.

Co m p u t e r C e n t e r ad opts ' rea l i st i c ' c h arge system by Katherine Hedland

Mast slall reporter

The Computer Center has cha the way in which student.!l will be charged for their computer time.

rtg1!d

The new system 1\'85 effective January I, and Howard Bandy, dean of computing, said he thinks it will be much more effective than the original plan. There are two major changes in the billing sy8tem. Each student is now entitled to 15 of free computer use each month. whereas before there was none. Bandy said he believea this will encourage students to experiment with computers and software.

Student.!l will also be paying less than last year for VAX computer time. The charge will now be 75 cents per hour, 08 opposed to $1.25. Student.!l will be charged .005 cents for each second of use on the central p� cC8Sing unit, .OS cent.!l for every page

printed, and .005 cent.!l for each disk block of storage. "The overall char� won't change, but we want the charges to reflect. actual uses." Bandy said.

The new plan was implemented to establish a more accurate ayltem of charging 9tudent.!l for computer usc. Bandy said that some people had not been paying their fair share, while others were paying more. Bandy said he thinks the new charges are much fairer.

There is no longer I maximum limit of computer cbarges per semC!lter. Last semC!lter, student.!l could not be charged more than $96. Students will not be charged for computer time. however, un· til lfter tl\e Feb. 19, drop/add period. Thi!! new billing system replaces the one previously prinled in the spring schedule, he said. Bandy said he cautions students to review the rules. "The new program is more effective. There are more realistic charges for the resource8 that are being used, �e said."

PLU's Dean for Computing, Howard Bandy, said he asked for the resignation because he and Denning differed in their management styles. When Bandy became dean last June and assumed control over all computers, offices, and faculty, he said it was dif· ficult to get Denning's cooperation. "When I took over. I had a vision of the direction that I wanted the Computer Center to go. It was difficult to get the cooperation of everyone, in particular. resign Jan.

Denning, however. felt it was in poor taste. He said the memo "lacked profe. sional integrity and respect." Altboush Bandy stresaed that no accusations were being made.

Unused mailboxes create postal pile-up in UC by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter Off-campus students may find their on-campus mailboxes are in for a jam. said UC director Marvin Swenson. Approrimately 260 of the 1.240 students who have been issued mai l boxes have failed to pick up their mail Swenson said, and the overload has become tremendous. Off-campus mailboxes were initiated as part of an ASPLU projoct to bridge the communication gap between on' campus and commuter students and to save postage on circulars infonning � l res ider.ts of coming activities. At the end of December, 214 off·

The mailbox system has "been a good way for ASPLU to get flyers out to the off-campus students," she said. "We've been able to do a lot more advertising." Lists of students who have withdrawn or graduated are being reviewed n i order to eliminate some of the overload. snd students who have not picked up their combinations from the UC information desk are being contacted, Swenson said. Items placed in the intercampus mail addressed to an off-campus mailbox are delivered to the UC where they are stamped with the current date and distributed to boxes each afternoon. Unaddressed flyers are stacked and made available to off-campus studen ts. while unaddressed urgent mail is placed in each individual mailbox. The mailbox system. which only operates during the academic year. is swamped at the end of each terln when undelivered first-class mail is forward· ed. bulk mail is eliminated and campus mail is usuaUy returned to the sendcr.

Noted author swaps Israel for Parkland by SonJa Ostrom

Mast reporter

At age 40, journalist/author Lesley Hadeton saye life i. greater than it was in her 20s, "I thoroughly hope my 80. are twice as fun a3 my 403,".shc added, "in which case I'U be dancing in the clouds." Hazleton. an internationally recogniz· ed writer, hal! joined the PLU English department this !lemest.eT as the univer­ sity's second distinguished writer in residence. She arrived from New York two weeks ogo. Life in the Pacific nor­ thwest is "quie.t and peaceful," com' pared to New York, she said. Hazleton spent her childhood in England. and after graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from Manchest.ef' University, she left for what she thought would be a two week trip to Israel. She stayed for 1 3 years. "It was a very long two weeks," she said. Hazleton's reasons for staying in Israel were the sun, rock., hills, and pe0pie , all of which will be included in her latest book, Jerusahm, Jenuakm, a per­ sonal and political memoir about Israel that will be available in hardback thie May. Fonner Egyptian President Anwar Sadet's visit to Israel ie included. in the book.. Haz.leton said the entire country of Israel was gluf'd to their televisions during the event. She remembers being honored and impressed with the vi� because such events happen as often as the ocean drying up, she said. Hazleton said ehe felt a compassion to write about her Israeli experiences. "There is a !lenlMl of excitement when you live in Israel and you become t.er-

Myths, a feminist analysis of Israeli society. The book made the New York Time, best !leller list, and she became infamous overnight in Israel when it was printed in Hebrew. Haz.leton said the book was unpopular Washington D.C. Over 1 .000 private schools ns.tionwide attended the con' ference on federal funding cuts to col· leges. The group met with congressional representatives to express their concern over proposed federal funding cuts. Rieke describes th" NAICU as "an im­ portant lobbying group." In addition, PLU administrators and members of the Board of Regents hsve been writing legislaton about their displeasure over the bill. Rieke said politicians may be hesitant to Oppo98 the Gramm-Rudman bill because many will be up for reelection in the faU.

was written from a personal view, not. a public view. "I feU in love with the desert," she said. Where the MounUJins R()(U was prais­ ed by The New Yorker as being a "first rate book." . TM Right to Feel Bad: Comin8 to TII'n7lS With Normal Depresswn, was Haz.leton's third book, in which she does not diacourage depression, but con· siders it a heaJthy response. "Because "e are human and sen· sitive," she said, "we react to what is go­ ing on in· our lives. We get depressed from time to time. and that is normal If we didn't get depressed." she added, "we would be repressing and there would he something wrong with us." In addition to her four books, i . Hazleton has also published articlee n natio� magazines including The New York Timn Mcgoz:inll', M" Hcrper's, and E,quire. As an nstructor i of two English courses this spring, the freelance and autobiographical writer said she will try to help student.! dicover their own per­ sonal style. Haz.leton's advice to young writers is to "keep writing knowing in aU likelihood they will not be able to do it for a living. Only a IlIIlll11 number of pe0ple are able todo that," she said. "You have to have a strong inner urge to write," she continued. "Do not write fOTglamour. Write for money if you can. but don't upect. it. Above all. write because you have a tremendous curiosity." Haz.leton said she does not consider herself a diversified writer. "I've only written about politics, literature, art. psychology, environment, and some scieuce," she said.

Gram m-Rudman amendment to slash aid (CPS)

Congress' new budget·balancing bill, passed in December, could mean stu· dent aid cuts of as much as 60 percent, some college lobbyists warn. The new law, usually called the Gramm·Rudman law after senators Philip Gramm (R·Te:.:1 and Warren Rud· man (R·NHI, who CO"aponsored it, forces the federal government to balance its budget by 1991. But in doing so, Congress is not allow· ed to cut. spending for Social Security, some welfare prOgTamB, many defense prOgTamB or to pay off t.he federal debL So, unJess the government tries to help balance the budget by raising some ta.J:es. education prosrams will be temp­ ting fiscal targets, lobbyists say. Federal college funding will be cut by some 4.3 percent by March l. Further cuts of up to 50 percent will start n i August. Just the inital 4.3 percent cut, however, translat.es into a $244 million drop in the amount of federal student aid moniea available this spring. Funding of campus research from the departments of Energy, Defense, Education, Agriculture and Health and Human Services will drop by some 5450 million at the same time. Making up for those kinds of losses will not be easy, officials say. Many say tuition increases are in\1vitable. At Reed College in Oregon, for exam· pie, tuition rose 8.7 percent last year, and "it will probably have to go up at least that. much nut year," said Larry Large. vice president for development

S�

and college relations at the school. The college depends on tuition for about 70 to 75 percent of its revenues, he said. Reed, like many other schoola n i re­ cent years, also has been using the in· terest earned by its endowment to loan to students as student aid. But because of the huge site of the coming federal budget cuts, Large is not sure the school will be able to continue meeting all student needs. M811Y schools, other officials add, may have to stall filling vacancies on their staffs 8lld on their facu1ties, raise hous· ing fees, and even cut back the number of courses they offer if they're to com· pensate for the Gramm·Rudman cuts. And to make it easierforpeople to pay higher tuition, more schools may start lending parents money to pay for it. A few-Bryn Mawr, Washington and Penn among them-already have len· ding programs.

About 65 percent of the small colleges have aggresaive fund·raising campaigns to assist students. The U.S. Student Association will be organizing a letter campaign around the country for students to write their representatives. The target time will be the end of March when legislators will be making key decisions. A similar nationwide letter writing campaign helped defeat a presidential proposal to cut federal student aid pro­ gTamB in 1982.

Artists and accountants may both benefit from a newdanceclass at PLU. Improvisation and Composition i9 an uperimental course that focuses on effi·

ciency of movement and provides the student with greater confidence. said PLU dance n i structQr Karen Sherwood. Sherwood is filling in for dance in­ structor Maureen McGill·Seal while the latter s i on sabbatical, She h8ll been an instructor at Evergreen State College in Olympia and has performed u a guest artist with the PLU dance ensemble for the past eight yeus_ Sherwood said her the class uses im· agery to influence the student's internal view of the body. She uses Laban Move­ ment Analysis, • syBkm designed in the 19309 and originally used to adapt fac­ tories in England for greater efficiency. The process involves documenting, notating, and analyzing movements and changes in the body, Muscle opposition and coordination s i studied so that students bettet' understand why their bodies feel the way they do. Sherwood is one of only 350 Laban Movement analysts in the world. " I'm always working to help them im­ provo their physical movement quali­ ty," said Sherwood.

Sherwood wants the students to build a rapport with their imaginations and to not rely so heavily on rational thought in order to act.

The d8lls is a process-or:ented d8ll9, �aid Sherwood. and cla9s members must first relM and trust one another, From there the course progresses geometrical· ly and a chain reaction develops that might appear chaotic to an outside observer, she said, Laban Analysis provides a consistent set of definitions with which to analyze body language. The system has been us­ ed by athletes and businessmen but for tbe past 15 yeara there has been a move to apply it to communication problems and to increase productivity. Two modem dance c1usea will be of· fered this semester n i addition to the Improvisation course, Live accompani­ ment will be provided offering more uni­ que rhythm structures than are available on taped music, said Sherwood_ Although no dance major is offered at PLU, many students join the PLU dance ensemble to tap their creativity,

she said. The ensemble is the most popular dance group and may be taken for credit, independent study, or U a

non-credit course. "PLU students just lova to perform," said Sherwood, "and they have a unique ability to be absolutely genuine on stage." Rehearsals for the dance ensemble will begin in mid·February and group work will be done on Fridays from 3 to 6 p.m. Students nterested i in dancing or choreographing should attend an in­ terest meeting today Ill. 3 n i the East

Both the Choir of the West and the Univet'sity Chorale toured during Interim. performing at Lutheran churches around the nation. The Choir of the West's 1986 Tour Program culmin6ted ....ith .. two local perfor· mances last Sunday and the well·received performance on campus last Tuesday.

At the end of February, the committee hopes to present " Suburbia,"' a feature not released to many theaters. Each movie costs an average of 8400 to rent, said Misterek, and no profit is made on the showings. "Silverado", a western screened last semester, came the closest to breakin even, he said. Usually committee members are happy to achieve a 50 percent return on any film, said Misterek. The movie committee, a small group of students. chooses the f ilms to be shown. About two months ago, PLU students were asked to give their fi lm preferences in a poll. Since few students offered opinions, committee members rely almost solely on their own judgment. Tonight's movies cost 81.50 for both early features. Admission to the mid· night showing of "And Now For Something Completely Diffel'Cllt" is II.

Brass qui ntet encourages student attendance by Susan Eury

While quintet members usually do not arrange their pieces, the repertoire for brass chamber ensembles is very limited. said FlI.lTIer. A large gap exists between late baroque compositions and 20th century writing where music was not intended for brass. The reason for this, IJ8id Farner, is that music chromaticized (followed a scale in· cluding haH·steps) earlier than brass in· struments did. The Washington Brass Quintet s i now n i its 12th year. Farner IJ8id within the past year she has noticed some dif· ferences in the audiences the group has attracted.

Mast staff reporter

The Washington Brass Quintet takes the stage Thursday night in the fourth Regency Concert of this year with a dif­ ferent personality, said hom player Kathleen Vaught Farner, assistant pr� fes90r of music at. PLU. Changing one person in the group changes the group's personality, she said, referring to the addition of tuba player Robert Ponto. Ponto, new con· ductor of the PLU symphony this year, brings to three the number of full·time PLU faculty members in the group. . "There was a period of adjustment," said Farner, "but it's working put ex· tremely well." The most difficult aspect of the quintet's work is finding time to rehearse, she IJ8id. Weekends and early mornings are often sacrificed to fit everyone's busy schedule. Farner said the quintet's concerts do not follow themes. Usually every member of the group suggests certain favorite pieces and those that comple= lJlent one another are selected for the program. Thursday's concert includes Mozart's Divutimento. Suppe's Poet lind Pell' slInt Overture, and Divertimento by Hu",Two other selections highlighting the quintet's two trumpet pbyers will also be on the program. Suite by Boyce is a very challenging work. said Farner, that "puts the trumpets through their paces." The composition includes heavy ornamentation for picoolo trumpets. The other trumpet showcase in the con· cert is Peul's Do.nces. Four of over 100 dances written by the composer will be played The pieces are played once through strictly as written and then repeated with ornamentation added

"Just looking into the audience dur­ n i g concerts it seems as iI more students are attending this year," she said. Encouraging student attendance is one goal of the Regency Concert �ries, IJ8id Farner. Other objectives n i clude showcasing faculty chamber ensembles in professional settings. displaying the high caliber of music teachers at PLU. and bringing the instrumental music program to the attention of the 'com· munity. Two more Regency Concerts are planned for April 24 and May 8. These will feature the Regency String Quartet and the Northwest Wind Quintet, respectively.

At Thursday's concert SeattJe freelance musician George Orme will be filling in for trumpeter Wayne Timmer­ man who will be away at a music educators' convention. A reception featuring three gourmet entrees will be provided after theconcert.

Editorial Jean·Claude Duvaller's rule as self·declared " president for life" of Haiti crumbled in recent days, and Ferdinand Marcos's 20·year reign is near Its end in the Philippines. While the demise of these not-so·democratlc rulers holds major consequences for their own nations, it also Indicates that the U.S. may have learned some lessons from its foreign potIcy blunders 01 past support for the Shah" of Iran, Nicaragua's Somoza and currently in its impotent policy of con­ structive engagement in South Africa. While the U.S. stuck to its commitment to the unpopular dictator­ ships of Somoza and the Shah until they were overthrown, its:. ties to Duvalier and Marcos have been minimal in the twilight of their in­ creasingly repressive reigns. Perhaps the U.S. State Department realizes that associating with an unpopular and crumbling regime results in anti-American senti­ ment and poor relations with the new governments of these nallons. In Haiti, the U.S. steered clear from Intervening to prolong the rule of Duvaller. The only action taken by the U.S. was to fly Duvalier to France. By keeping al arms' length from the festering discontent in Haiti, hopefully the U.S. is preventing the growing rage against Duvalier from developing into rage against itself. Although the circumstances In the Philippines are vastly dif­ ferent from those in Haiti, the U.S. has adopted a similar policy of pressing for reforms from that nation's corrupt leadership, but re­ maining neutral in the country's Internal power sluggle, ill ustrated by the recent presidential election. Even if Marcos emerges victorious from the mire of an apparently fraudulent election, It Is clear thai he no longer commands the allegiance of the Philippine people. The U.S. has recognized that if It continues to cling to Its past support of Marcos, the restless citizens of the PHlpplnes are likely to oppose the U.S. as well as Marcos. The result could be a new anti-American leadership that would force our military bases out of Ihe country. While it is not guaranteed that this American foreign policy will result In strong U.S. ties with the new governments that will replace the repressive regimes in Haiti and Phllippines, It is clear that we ha\'e learned from our mistakes In Somoza's Nicaragua and the Shah's Iran. ·Davld Steves

Froot 0' the Lute G ive a hug for V- Day by Clayton Cowl

Somehow, Valentine's Day just ian't the same any more. Remember the days of tossing and turning on Valentine's Eve dreaming about all the cards you'd stack up by the next afternoon and how many Sweethearts and Hershey's kisses you cowd devour in one 50-minute party period at school? The days of "Valentine, won't you be mine?" are over. The days of cutting out mini-cards from giant valentines cut out books the night before the big class Valentine's party are gone. The plights of sending a card that boasts. "I love you" the the Ugly guy in the back row with steel teeth and a Van Halen outfit have vanished. The Valentine's parties with the ever-exciting Lifesaver on a toothpick race and Winkum have also thankfully disappeared. But even at such distinctive post· secondary educational levels as PLU, people continue to amaze the common man and keep philosophers alive. Why is it that grown college students still shove gobs and gobs of neosac·

Where is U.S. aid in EI Salvador going? by Vem Hanson Associate professor, social work

i i.r tile Jlcond in a four-part ,em, rrh� on CMtrrJl America by PLU faculty member Vern Han,on.}

El Salvador. It means, "Savior of the world." The Ree,pn aclmini5tration Me9 EI Salvador UI the aavior of democrlltic systems of government in Centnll America. This is the strong impression I gained during a three day stay in San Salvador, �he capitol city, as put. of a fUteen day study tour of Mellico and Centnll America lutmonth. The group I wu with interviewed U.S. Embassy eWf, government and churdl leaders, residents of two refugee camps. two human richts orpni:u:tiona. u:d several other lmow1edgea:ble peraons.

Commentary For the readers who have a hard time remebering which country is which (and the confusion i.e uoderst.aDdable given the nearly complete neglect of that region in our educa.itonaJ syst.eme, and also in the media) the U.S. eenda many millions of dollars to Centra America for the purpoaes of: 11 overthrowing the governmmt of Nicaragua. and 2) p� ing up the goVetnmeDt in EI Salvador. Unbelievably larp sums of money, tbe equivalent of nearly 12 million each dDy pours into EI Salvador. The result is that EI Salvador is a country of inaedible contrasta. Con· tra!'!ta that to me were itreconcileable. And obscene. Over 60 percent of the money we provide goes to enable the military to fight their Civil War. Which

Sh U ttl e d Isas ' t er not O n l y tra g edy To The Editor: A9 news covering the space 9huttle tragedy rolled off the press for daya after the incident, I stllpped to ask "why?" Not the same "why" that molt were asking, but wby aU the commotion? In no way do 1 want to belittle the tragedy of the fateful Challenger mis­ aion. but it struck me that there might be a greater tragedy than the loss of the seven livei or even the loss of the zrpace shuttle it.aelf. The tragedy to which 1 refer is the tragedy of misplaced values. I believe the reason the nation reected the way it did was not jUst for the Joaa of the aeven lives, but because of a bruiaed spirit, ego. and pride in OUT apace p� gram.. The general public. including myself. has a great deal of pride in the accomplish menta of our space program, but sometimes the public feels tMt technology is nfallible. i Proof of trul pride and ego was the reaction to the Ibuttleuplosion. Surely, we were not simply mourning the loss of the Mven live-afterall, pe0ple die aU the time. More Lives are lo5t in a single auto accident, or certainly n i a plane accident. I believe the shock wa9 much more than that-it was a brutal awakening to the dream that many people have that technology s i infallible; it was a blow to our U.S. pride. our ego. In short, it 9truck a humiListing blow. It s i this pride that I cannot help but think is the real tragedy of the 9pace shuttle expl09ion. I was shocked. angered, and grieved not so much at the explosion of the space shuttle. but at the reaction that followed. In the hometown of Christa McAuliffe, Concord, NH, the tragedy was compared to the asaaasina· tion of President Kennedy. Worse yet, we are n i 9tilling this pride

means that oruy a tiny percentage of

Salvadorans be:lefit hom our aid, and the rest suffer from it more'lr lesa. The contrast was brougbt home to me in the 9pace of an hour on a Sunday afternoon. We ate lunch n i a pleasant. open-pavilloned area witb about fifty tables bordered on two aides by a dozen fut food places including Taco Bell and Nautilus Submarines. A Mumk version of "Never My Love" lent accompani­ ment to the light chatter of the well· dreaaed. attractive crowd. Clearly U.S. money had funded this biurre vetaion of Little U.S.A.. and 1 guesaed that many of the Salavadorans eating there collected their paycheck from the government or the military. the primary recipients of U.s. aid. Immediately after lunch we drove a few mi1e8 out of the city to a refuaee camp. the permaneIlt home for 700 plus people, 600 of them children. The camp, which was developed and i.e owned by the Salvadoran Lutheran Church site on an area equal to about three city blocks. The family unite NCh have their OWl) amall fiving space in aevenl larae ODe story buildinp at ODe end of the fenced-in area. Other buildings within the compound include lID infumary, a chapel. an OpeD' air cooking and baki.ns area, another for scrubbing clothes by band. The camp is a model of efficiency. Everyone helps. Everyone ehares. S� children cany and care for smaIlet children. with a few more acres the com­ munity could be eelf·sufficient..Aa it i.e they come dollll. They Willi chiclcen.a for food and grow vegetables on part"of the land. The church has even somehow gathered enough money to · bUild a echool for the children, and the camp

in our children with programs like "Pen­ rues for Space-Rebuild our Spirits." Granted. programs like this puled the n."on toge,h" in. m.nn" ,ho,,,..ol. ed huge amounts of care and love, but it. also revealed a tragic misdireciton of values. J wonder why we do not react the same way when people die every day of ma1-nutrition. hunger, lack of proper health care. when people die in ow- own backyard! of AIDS, cancer, Mwtiple Sclerosis. and on and on. If we got the same reaction that the lpace shuttle ezplosion has received for every seven livH lost to hunger, malnutrition or lack of proper health care. 1 think we would have a lot fewel' of the real injustices in the WOl'ld.. There are a whole lot greater t.ragediea out there t''IIIt receive a whole lot lese recognition. That is the reU tragedy of the uploaioD of the apace shuttle.

London

English culture offers some surprises by Jean Zulch Here I am back n i the good old USA. Now, come the big questions: "How was London?," "Did you !lee Charles and Diana?," "Did you see Big Ben?," "How was the food?" "Did you see any punk-rockers? " .. How were the Mar· tins?," "Did you go to many pubs?," and my favorite question, " How was the shopping?" Answers to those questions? London was wonderful. Charles and Diana were very unsociable during our atay. We did see the ClockTower. Big Ben is actually the bell ns i ide. London is not the place to go to get quality cuisine.. Getting water with a meal W89 hard enough. Punk·rockers were a little 8CArC:e.. The Martins were great. They are real people just like you and me. The pubs were okay, but if you aN! expecting the OIee,.. atmosphere. don't go. Shopping W8IJ n i ­ credible. English bone china was the best deal. Our group was called bUIO«ntl Abroad. We were just that. a bunch of innocents goingover to England.

Some of my favorite times were spent

about the tube-that famed underground subway of London. The underground is a totally new transportation experience. The tube is a great way to get around. With the han­ dy Visitor's Guide to Central London, you can go anywhere n i the city, First of all, you must queue up for a ticket. What's a queue? Even though Briti9h people speak Engli9h, there i9 sti1l a language barrier. Time for the Engli9h dictionary and phrase book! ('Queue up' means to fonn a line.) About si,.ty pence buys a ticket, but you are responsible forfinding the right train. Luckily, the direct.ions &re drawn out on a map, selfexplanatory, color coded, and simple to understand. That is uruess you are an American. We try to make thinga much harder than they really are. Whenyou finally fmd the train going ttw right direction, you have 10 second9 to jump on. That's when the fun starts. There seems to be an unofficial contest going on in London tosee how many people can squeeze into one subway train.

The train doonl open and an anonymoU9 voice says, " Mind the gap." Get out thephrase book. Is that anything like mind your mother? To an Engli9hman, it means " Watch out for the hole."

by Karen Brandl Most of the group was already at breakfast when I came downstairs one morning, Kemi was having her usual orange juice, toa9t, and tea, while the others were eating eggs, bacon, and lots of toast, We have a running joke about getting our daily loaf of bread. I think MnI, Davie9 1the hotel owner's wife) had to buy e,.tra bread now that we're here! Dennis handed out our tickets for tonight's show, and we all talked about what we wanted to do today. It used to be that we all stuck together, but now we go wherever we want, sometimes with others, sometimes alone. yesterday, Beven of U9 took a train out to Bath, wber-e the Roman Baths are. I fmd it difficult to really grup how old things are around here-the Baths were made in 47 A.D.! 1 realize now just how young our country is. . Today 1 wentoffon my own. I did some shopping, then I went back to the British Museum-to see the mummies thla time. Surprised? I am. I fiDd that I like these mUgeWDS and art galleries, and I go back to them in my free time. I think Jean and Kristen returned to theTatelGallery) today. I would have liked to do that also, but there is still 80 much to see and do, you have topick and chooge! This evening the group wa9 reunited at the Barbican Theatre, where we saw the Royal Shakespeare Company per­ form The Merry WiuesofWindsor. It W8S so good! My high sc:hool English teacher once told me that 8 cia99ic i9 8 classic because it's story i9 relevantthroughout lime. Well, it"9 true! Thi9 play was written in the early 1600s, but the Company set it in the 1950s. It worked out fantastic! It wu fun to look down the row of pe0ple in the group while theywat.chetl the play. Greg was leaning forward, n i tent Oil what Wll9 going on. Mary and Becki had theirheads together, commenting on the actors. and everyone was having a good time. Well. that was about it for today.

New York City

'Big Apple' interesting, but not all that juicy

by Cheryl Relsdal

After ben i gn i New YorkCity for a week, Parkland, Washington, sure looks good. This Interim, our group of IS PLU students and eight non-PLU adults traveled to the Big Apple and par­ ticipated in the Interim class, "New York! From Broadway to the Met," led by Mira Frohnmayer and Wayne Bloomingdale, The purpose of the tour was to attend and experience Broadway and ofmroad­ way musicals at various theaters and operas at tbe Metropolitan Opera, Those experiences have to be the best thing about New York, The perfor­ mances were top notch, performed by some of the best musicia.n.s and actors.in the world, A person could never see enough culture in New York City-from the fascinating museums gaJore to the pro­ fessional basketball, hockey, football. and baseball to the bums on the street, Some of the museums that the

students saw included the Museum of Modem Art. The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Guggenheim Museum, and the American Museum of Natural History, Manhattan has a lot to offer, especial· ly tall buildings-lots of them, I am sure native New Yorkers could tell we were tourists because we would run nto i them while looking up at the skyscrapers, We all had stiff necks the first day there. TTaffic in New York can be a nightmare, so the majority of people travel by bus, tuj, or subway, Our f1r8t experience in New York was getting stuck in a trafficjam on the way to our hotel WaIki.ng through town, we had to wind our way around street vendortl many times wbo had tbeir wares spread out on the sidewaIka. It seemed like many of the item.s were "hot", because of the great deals theroffered. One day when it was raining, people were selling umbrellas on the street.8 for three dollars, Since most people end up sitting in

half

one place for a hour or more, you could have your windshield washed, or join in a chorus of honking homs. We also watched a taxi remove half a bumper from a bus. Perhaps the cheapest and fastest mode of transportation was the subway, While Steve Petrinovich and I were riding the subway back to our botel, a man caught Steve's attention and said, "Since we have the same kind of sboes, I figure we can talk. Now what. is it you want to know?" Completely taken by surprise, Steve said, "Nothing, } get off at the next stop." The people of New York werein­ teresting, One nigbt after coming outof theplay "Cats," it was extremely cold. People drove up in hont of the theat.erin limousines andyelledout, "Want a ride, want a ride?" They probably would havecbarged $10 a mile, but you would have stayed wann.

Prices were all outrageous. Atone rutaurant we went to, I ordered a

cheeseburger and ended up paying $8. Movie theaters charged at least $6 per ticket, and tickets for normal stage pro­ ductions started atl3S, When we weren't watching operas or musicals, wewere walking everywhere in Manhattan. Many attractions that our tour groups saw n i cluded Central Park, the Hard RockCafe, Greenwich Village, Bloomingdale's, Macy's, Grand Central Station, Madison Square Garden. the Statue of Liberty, Rockefeller Pl.az.a, Times Square, the United Nationa building, and the World TradeCenter,

I think the biggestthrill was to stand next toa monument or landmark that baa been standing there for two or three centuries; or to be in the same theater where 80rne of the top performers got theirst.art.. Most of the people on the tour agreed theycouJdn't livein New York, but.that it was a really good experience to aee it and to take in a little bit of what the city baa to offer,

by Heidi Gebhard This Interim } traveledback east to the "Big Apple," New York City_ This was, needless to say, a very 8lI:citing week forme. Eight days in the City involved three musicals and two operas as part of our required class time. Apart from those, we had plenty of free time to do sight-seeing and shopping. Its hard to pick out highlights of the trip since it seems like we were going non'stop all week, One of the most · ing parts f the trip was that everything we saw was real! We sat and watched Broadway shows in world·reknown theaters and operas in the Metropolitan opera, the ultimate in the performing arts In the museums, we saw actual masterpieces: Rembrandts, Monets, and Van Goghs to name a few, The pace of the city was much faster than Parkland. In some parts of the city all the stores are open all night. The people are all in there own hurried world, but everyone I spoke to was courteous and n i terested in where I was from, why I was there, and wished me a good trip; and a good trip I had! I also had a close brush with greatness when Sara Foss and I glimpsed Ralph Lauren, the designer, walking out of the Russi:m Tea Room. • I didn't have the guts to ask him for his autograph.

We had brought a telescope with us in a large, I�ked trunk.

The next night we remembered the key but. it clouded over a9 we were setting up.

The following night it was clear, and we found the comet in the binoculars. but again we had forgot the key to the trunk. At least we saw HalleY's in the binocs.

Much of the life of our class, however, was centered inside around a vacant firepit, Sitting with our feet on the rocky mantle and drinking coffee, we learned to accept theviews, values, and beliefs of others while challenging unQuestion' ed views of our own, Some say that it is easy to get alan:; with people who are difft!rf'nt: but they usually "get along" by avoiding the dif, ferent people or aVQiding talking about their views,

At Holden Village. we were couedin· toconfronting these differences, Ell»" tions sometimes flared, but overall, respect grew, Also, because of the unique at· mosphere at Holden, the community became part of the class, and the class became part of the community.

Remodeling u pg rades I ng ram H a l l faci l ities by Sonj_ Ostrom Mast reporter

Ingram Hall has slipped n i to the future following a $135,000 renovation project that includes a journalism c1auroom, video machinery, and a new art gallery. In 1955, the original building housed the bookstore, cafeteria, coffee shop, and a student·run snack bar similar to the Cave, said Jim Phillips, Physical Plant director. In recent years the School of Nursing as well as the art department were located there. The renovation project was part of a long range plan dating back several years, Phillips said. " The remodeling involved bringing the building up to ...'Ode. removing asbestos from the ceiling, new wiring and lighting, and a mechanical system to provide heat fnr the building," he

said. "It was also made handicap accessible. .. Phillips said the changes include: a performance/video studio IO:iLh cameras, mm review machines, and 8 viewing room; a journalism classroom with typewriters. work tables. and layout tables; and 8 new gallery, neW'" the building's entrance, with the capacity to display taller art pieces. Phillips said one of the major pro­ blems with the project was the financial inability to re-roof the entire building. A pitched roof was built on the galJery that will eventually extend across the rest. (>f the building. Until then, the re­ maining flat roof will be a high main­ tainance area becaul;;e of the tendency for water to settle rather than run off. "Overall, I am pleased with the pro­ ject," Phillips said. "Hopefully people within the building will also be pleased, , and rmd it functional. .

Culture to be exa mined by Mark Huntington Masl reporter

Celebrating black culture-and helping people understand black American history are the goaLs of Black History Month orgarmers at PLU. The event ill being observed nation· wide by black!'! and non·blacks during the month of February. Blaclr. Alliance Throu&b Unity (BANTU) and Minority Student Programs are organizers for the event at PLU. " The history of black people and other people of different ethnic origins have not been written or recorded accurate­ ly." said Phyllis Lane. director of Minority Student Prog:r&mll at PLU. "When you read black history in America. you never hear about all the atrocities that took place during the slavery period,"she said The purpose for celebrating black history s i simply to help give the full pic· ture to those who do not understand what has happened. Lane said. Black American roots ... ill be retraced througb the use of falms throughout the month. The fUms: "The Ancient Africans" and "The Treasures of 1\J.tankhamen" t.ly to dispeU the fears about Africa while glorifying the nation at the same time. If people are to understand s culture, they must over'" come their fears about it fust. Lane said. Looking into a culture's history is one remedy n i over.xlming fear and misunderstanding of that culture. she said. "WI'! should defy our negative at· titudes about other's history. When you study a culture. you not only learn something about that culture. but more importantly, you learn something about yourself," Lane said. The observance of Black History Month is not to isolate black!'! from the rest of American society, but to celebrate the differences. Lane said. "We do it to reognize each other. What we're really saying to our feUow Americans ill , 'My history is you hbtory: It tell! U!l aU who we really are as a nation. "she said. Lane said racism at PLU does exist to

II degree. but abe added that there are II

Jot of caring people at PLU who have an interest in peace and justice too. . "Raci9m is a part of human nature. , Lane said. "There is generally a refusal to claim racist attitudes because they're not easily dermed. but they're still there. Racism keeps me from knowing others and we all 108e when we're mistreated by iL"

"I believe it's really important for people to under.. tand the differences between blacks and whites, but we must realize we are really alike too."

Lady Lutes - Turn i ng it a round i n 1 986 b y Mike Cond.rdo Mast stalf feportor One year ago, the Pacific Lutheran women's basketball aquad was suffering through a dismal season, which would see them finish with one vict.ory coupled with 24 losses. But all that. has changed this season. A new coach, some new faces, a new al­ titude and winning ways. .. : . ast seoson t.he Lutes finished n i the basement of the NCIC. This year, PLU is in second place t().2). giving chase to first place Willamette (&0). The Lutes two conference loslIes WI! to the con· ference leaders. PLU', problem has been District I games where they are 2·12. next to last in the division. The Lutes are led this season by 5·10 frosh guard Kelly Larson. who 1ed9 the team in scoringl 15.3 points per game), free throw percentage 177.4), and steals (2.1 per gamel. Coupled with those statistics, Larson is also causing ha...oc on the NCIC slats. t.or!lOn is first in free

throw shooting, fourth in the NCIC 900ring race and ninth in field goal percentage. But Largon's role with the Lutes is milch more than 9OOring. "Kelly's a real competitor n i that she is mentally tough." said women's head coach Mary A.m Kluge. "What she brings our team is mental toughness .nd because of that mental toughnes.!l, she produces that statistics that she

has,"

"She is definitely the player we want to have the ball in the tough moments." claimed Kluge, "She gi...es the team of· fensive firepower .nd toughness on defense," But Larson is not the only reason the Lutes h.ve had m.rginal success this season. Twin towers in the middle of the PLU lineup h.ve contributed to the Lutes effort this season. Kristy .nd Kerry Korn, who were ac· tivated I.st month following their transfer to PLU from Idaho State Uni ...ersity, appear to ha...e gi...en the Lutes . new dimension in the fonn of re­ bounding.nd scoring. Since joining the squ.d January 3, Kristy Korn has grabbed 121 rebounds

and is a...eraging 11.5 points a game. Keny, who has recently moved into Kluge's starting lineup, is averaging 6.2 points a game and has a 69.4 free throw percentage. "Kristy is as experienced at the post as any other player n i the middle in our conference," said Kluge, "Defensively, she is very tough. We h....e a definite defensi ...e backbone in her experience out there." "Kerry posts up better than anybody in our whole district or conference," said Kluge, "She has brought us offense in a more dominating position than before." But there is • complitmenting factor when the two are on the court. "Kristy is more mobile. whi l e Kerry pl.nts .nd w.nts the ball to take it and score NOW," noted Kluge. "They are nice to ha...e together and the rebounding we get from the two of them s i important. We can look to them to get 12 to 14 re­ bounds 8 game and that's nice to have." Kris Kallestad, who has led the Lutes in scoring the past two years. has taken on a different role for PLU in that she is a floor leader and Ctln be looked to to score her 12.2 points a game and pull down a crucial rebound when the team needs it, But the most silent member of the squad is in the performance of guard Karen Kvale, She has good statistics for being the Lutes playmaking guard averaging 6.5 points. with a 45 percent field goal percentage .nd 57 assists on the season. Kvale's statist ics just miss the re­ quirements for making the NCIC charts. but that is a point Kluge wants K...ale to notice for herself. "We want Karen t.o be one notch higher than she is now." said Kluge. "She has definitely got the talent and the desire and she is becoming more consistent, She just needs a few more shots and steals to be a playef' who's presence is really felt." The bench has been a real positive point for the Lutes this season with OJ Reed, Annette Kuhls, Kart. Kimple and Denise Bruce being the prime con· tributors for the Lutes. "We are just ha... i ng problems con...er­ ting our opponents turnovers into points," said Kluge. "But overall, I am ...ery pleased with their progress. E...en theone's who don't get to play. They are ...ery supportive of all the players."

Runnin' Lutes sti l l i n pl ayoff chase with victory by CI.yton Cowl Mast staff reporter Pacific Luther.n men's .... rsity basketball coach Bruce Haroldson wouldn't be surprised if he felt seasick last week. The helmsman guided the Runnin' Lutes over the Se...en Seas and into rough waters before finally break· ing out of the storm last Tuesday night in Olson Auditorium. The Lutes, now 13·7 and headed for a district playoff berth with a 72·65 win over St. Martin's on Tuesday, shattered a two-game losing string .Iong with a string of bad luck on troubled w.tera. Agonir.ing the loss of starters Doug Galloway (knee n i juryJ, Dan Liehr lankle injuryJ, and Scott Lewis (...oluntary withdrawal) for the season, the Lutes were shelled by Central WashingtOn (82-60) and Western Wash ington (7()'521 on the road, sn.pping. aix'game victory stroll (including nine of the previous 10 gamesl.

"Gee whiz... lt w.s like someone shot the rudder off the back of the boat," remembered Haroldson, now in his third year as a PLU coach. "It's .Iways hard to �up on the road. If you're at home. you get a feeling of support and that helps. We' ...e taken !lOme great strides in rebuilding the rudder now." Dan Gibbs pumped in a game-high of 22 points to lead the squad against St, Martin's, whi l e Jon Carr collected 17 points and Todd Daugherty had 16. Ilat Bean. Eric DeWitz, Shannon Bruil and David IkMots (up from the JV ranks) responded well to challenges of more pl.ying time. said Haroldson, "Pat and Shannon showed some ex· cellent leadership out there and that's what we need from them more than anything else right now," explainer! H.roldson. "We have much more flow to our game now and our defl"nsive intensi· ty picked up immensely, " "The difference in the game (versus St. Martin'sl was the eFfectiveness of

our press early in the first half and mid· way through the second half," said Haroldson, "The guys are talking to each other and saying, 'Yes. we can," For senior To<'d Daugherty. a 6-5 center for PLU, the loss of three starters was disappointing, but not de...astating:. "The main problem we'...e had is that basically we Dre a new team," Daugher· ty cited. "Our timing has been off together and !IOmetimes the system is mixed up a little. but he !Haroldsonl is still coaching the same way and he's tak· ing a look at a lot of different people n i a lot of different positions." Guiding a craft over stormy wsters was a challenge for Haroldson (now 51·24 as a Lute hoop coach). Nothing comes easy, he insists. "It's kind of like a lesson in life:' he injected, "Not everything turns out the way you'd like it to, You play with the cards that .re dealt to you. Life sn't i alw.ys fair:' "It's a little like Lincoln used to

say..,'1 will prepare myself .nd perhaps my time will come, '" said Haoldson. "Each guy has to reach back inside himself and see if there isn't something more he can contribute." "We're on a roll now and playing well together again," explained Daugherty. "The way I look III things, it may make us come together even more. It just may be the thing we need to get to Kansas City."

"Spud." who has a vertical leap measurement of 42 nches. i has been an over·achiever since childhood The sporn he favored were track and football. but in the ninth grade, he started to develop a potent passion for hoops. Webb was often told he would not make it in basketball because of his bantam-size body. Many coUeges neglected ta recruit rum. wruch gave Webb an added inspiration to pursue his dream: to play basketbaU in the NBA. Spud said that he feels great when he proves to skeptic:u onlookers that he can play and compete at the pro. fessionlillevei. Indeed, many onlookers view Spud as a whimsical novelty, but the ma­ jority of the NBA players respect his athletic talent without paying much regard ta his physical size.

Professional basketball i.s a .sport where phy.sical size means almost. everything. The Atlanta Hawk's 5'5" Anthony "Spud" Webb challenged the OJIds and has emerged as the most recent gene�ic phenomena of professional athlet.ics. Webb. who dunked his first round ball in his junior year of high school. won the 1985 NlJA's Slam Dunk Championship last Saturday in Dallas. He stole the Dunk.()ff title from teammate Dominique Wilkins with two perfect dunks in the decisive final round. Webb. 22. the catalyst on Jim Valvano's North Carolina State Wolfpack National Championship team of 1984. was drafted in the fourth round last. summer by the Detroit Pistons. The Pistons were IIlready overflowing with backcourt magicians in the fonn of 1985 all-star Isiah Thomas. Vinnie Johnson, and first rouund pick Joe Dumars.. Webb was cut by Detroit and immediately picked up by Atlanta. In Saturday 's contest. Webb ac­ complished much more than a Dunk ore victory. He caught the attention of millions of Americans who doubt that ·people without incredible physical tools could compete at the professional level. He sparked a feel­ ing of intensity thllt WIIS ellllmplified by the euphoric crowd at the Dunk Off. His first dunk, a double pump reverse, earned him a score of 46 out of II possible 50. The crowd booed fit the score which they demanded. wu 11 50. In the semifinals. "Spud" received his first 50 for tassing the ball up. catching it afterthe bounce and slllm· ming it with his back to the rim. In the final round IIgliinst Wilkins he hod two perlect dunks that gllve him the victor's crown. The first 50 was II one-handed 360 and the second 50 was achieved by

Dominique Wilkins knew about the underrated ta1ent that Webb possess' ed and encoufllged the Hawks to pick him up. Wilkins is not only a great friend to Webb, but /II big brother as ....ell. . 1 would venture ta gueS! that Wilkins .....as somewhat saddened about losing the Dunk-Off. but. just the same. elated that the crown went to his good buddy Spud. Webb received his nickname "Spud" when he was a young child. He was bom in 1963. which was duro ing the Russilln slltellite years. His mother came up ....ith . the name Spud· nik. EventuaUy the name dwindled ta "Spud" and it has remained ta this day. Webb has been entertaining fans across the nlltion and has proved that dynamite actually does eame in small packages. Spud has inspired everyone from the Ph.D to the grade school pupil with his desire. dedica­ tion and determination that make up for his physical re.straints. which has the tendency to intemJpt our path taward athletic uccllence.

Coach Johnson, who's men's squad

fell to a Central team who finished third

at nationals Ilist year. said the Lutes performance on Saturday WIIS the best he has seen from the men against Cen· tral in four years. The Lutes collected four individual first plllces. with Jon Christensen winning the 200-yard freestyle in 1:29.67 and the 200-yard breaststroke in 2:15.66. John Shoup won the 200-yard ndividual i medley and the 200-yard butterfly. Despite Christensen's performance in the 2OO-yard freestyle and John Lamb's second n i the 5OO-yard freestyle, the freestyle swimming was the weak lpot in the men's team on Saturday. The difference between the first and second place man was too big. This resulted in a loss of 24 points in the freestyle events. The Lutes also gave up 10 points by flliling to show up in the diving events.

The PLU women's team gave Central a bit of a tougher battle than the Lute

The women t.nkers led "ear the end 01 their meet with CWU, but couldn't hang on. men did. CWU was second in last year in national championships and are the odds on favorites to capture nationals -rl again thi� year. T�e Lutes led the meet

until the rmaJ four events. The 4 X lOO-yard med1ey team ltarted out by beating Central by 2.09 seconds to finish n i 4:13.26. Kern Butcher won the 50-yard freestyle in 25.33 seconds followed by �lauma Jamieson 26.25. After four events. the Lutes were eight points up. Wins in the 200-yard in· dividual medley and 200 yard­ butterfly lIod failure by PLU to show up in the 1 meter diving event gave CWU a one point advantage. Butcher also won the lOO-yard freestyle in 54.97, and Carol Quarten:nan won the 2OO-yard backstroke in 2:18.35. With four events remaining, the Lutes were up by three points. A double win by CWU's Thorstenson and Shake in the 500-yards freestyle, lind failure by PLU ta show up n i the 3 meter diving, tumed the tide in favor of Central. Wins by Gray n i the 2oo-yard breast:ltroke. and by the 4 X 100 Yllrd freestyle team of Maal. MaIgarini, Shake. Carroll. and Thorstenson gave CWU a 17 point win.

Better depth io the freestyle events and the Lute'a failure to show up in the diving events were the major causes of the loss to CWU.

Mast staff reporter

Mark Foege never knew his business major would mean so much. Especially when tho product he is marketing is himself. Every athlete dreams about reaching the lop. and in Poegc's case the summit is the professional football ranks. While most college students'are vacationing at the bellenes, enjoying the mountains. or !"Claxing at home during spring break. Foege, a senior placekicker for PLU's NAJA Division II national champion­ ship runnerup squad, will be kicking in front of NFL scouts at the Ray Pelfrey kicking camp in Reno. With the NFL draft coming in the middle of April, many college athletes src chewi ng their nails hoping for a chance to show teams the talent they possess. Fooge is no exception. but with m i pressive stati stics this season, he hopes to have an edge, He led the NAlA in kick scoring with 68 points in nine regular season games fa 7,5 avernge) and claims all-conference and All American honors this year as a Lute. Although Feege left college football with a deluge of honors and awards, the Bellannine High graduate's kicking career started off pretty shaky. A six'year stint in the boys club soc· cer system in Tacoma set the tone for Feege, who starting playing football in the ninth grade. As a kicker and tight end his senior year for Beilarmine, Feege twisted his ankle on a pass pat­ tern and was then asked toperform only his specialty-placekicking, After pocketing an all·league honorable mention as a prep senior, Feege was picked up by the University of Washington to kick behind Chuck Nelson, Two years ns a Husky backup and three weeks into the next UW train· ing camp found the Tacoma native pull· ing up stakes and heading back home. i g to have to "I figured out I was gon transfer if I was going to get anywhere, and J wanted to stay local," Foege ex· plained. "PLU had a good football tradi· tion and my dad had gone to PLU, 80 1 went ror it." Foege's stay at PLU was one of con· tinual success. Not only did he lead the nation inkick scoring, but he also nearly toppled th eschool conversion record with a 38 for 39 mark. When the Lutes advanced to the national grid finals, the visions of a pro career for Foege became more and more vivid.

Cleveland.

"Just about every kid wants to play pro sports of tIOme kind," reOeet.ed Foege, "It really wasn't until the end of the season and until a couple of honors came my way that the thought of trying out for a pro team crossed my mind." r owe it to myself and to the years of hard w<rk to take it as far as I can," said Foege. "A chance like this on1y comes along once in a lifetime. You have to shoot fOr a" high a" you can go." Getting the attention of pro scouts is the first barrier to hurdle, says Foege.

"My concentration is something that

has developed over the last couple of years, " Foege continued. "I wouldn't say I have a terribly strong leg, but I make up for that with quickne� and concentration." "One thing that 1 do have going for me is that kickers can come from just about anywhere," insisi;ed Foege. "When an NFL team really likes II kicker, they'll tend to bang On to them. On the other hand, if they don't like someone, they tend to n nd ways to get rid of them, There', a lot of politiC!! in the NFL and no guarantees. You just have to !let your goals for the top."

After contacting 22 teams by mail, the PLU senior has received wocd from three teams, n i cluding the Cleveland Browns, the Detroit Lions and the Houston Oilers.

A halt was called to the election because of extensive violations of Elec· tion Board procedures and miscommunications between ASPLU, candidates, and students. The officers decided in an emergency meeting Monday night that there were too many problems with the original election. They decided to stop it im· mediately and begin again. with revised procedures. while there was still time. One of the main problems was with

Education Policies, from page 1 visory Committee recommendation. The committee-charged with preparing an application to the Phi BeLa Kappa Liberal Arts Honorary for 8 PLU endorsenlent-fccls our transfer policy is too loose, Wilson said. The committee said the cw-rent policy allows students to get a degree from PLU while taking a aignificant number of courses from com­ munity or other colleges. Wilson said the committee believes the chonge, which wi.ll raise university sLandards. may make PLU a better candidate for a Phi Beta Kappa endorsement. "If it's a PLU degree:' said Joanne Brown, religion professor, "it is impor' t.nnt for core classes to come from PLU, otherwise itis not a PLU educotion. ·· The 01her policy awaiting approval by the Board of Regents involves a change in the current pass/fail system. Wi l son said the new policy will requiN! students to submit a pass/fail form directly to the Registrar's Office, with no instructor signature required. One of the reasons for the change. Wilson said, is that some instructors believe that if they know a student s i Laking a class pass/fail, it may innuence their grading system. "I am not aware of any bias associated with assigning pass/fail grades," said PLU student Tim Reier­ son, "but the new proposal seems good because it forces a numerical solution to pass/fail grades-independent of any in­ tuitive grading criteria." The instructors wi.ll submit letter grades for all atudents and the Registrar's Office wi.ll change the grades for those requesting a pass or fail. "I think that the new policy is a b'OOd idea." said junior Sonya Peterson. "I felt embarrassed to go to a professor with a pass/fai l form. I didn't want the instructor to think I wasn't willing to put forth 100 perceot. or that 1 wasn't interested in the subject." she said. The policy limits the total number of pass/fail options to eight credit.s. Wilson said. This restriction is another way to "tighten up university standards," he said. Keith Cooper. philosophy intructor. said he favored an even more liberal pas5lfail policy. "The pass/fail option is good bE:cause_ it allows Students to explore." 'Tm not sure I'm in favor of the new pass/fail policy," said Michael Bartanen. communication arts professor. "it hurts PLU n i trying to recruit transfer students," he said. Wilson said the new policy will 5ave on bookkCf!ping and paperwork for professors.

AS P L U develops new budget proced u res by Kalhy Lawrence Mast stall reporter

ASPLU', budgeting system s i runn­ ing differently this semester following the arrival of both 8 new budget head . and the use of a spending proposal. Dana Miller, ASPLU advisor, said that her job description mode her N!sponsible for ASPLU spending, but did not provide her with the authority to make checks on their spending. Previously, Marv Swenson, director of the University Center and Campus Ac­ tivities, served 8S ASPLU', budget head. Therefore, Miller .!laid, Mary Lou Fenili, vice president of Student Life, delegated the position of ASPLU budget head to the ASPLU advisor. As ASPLU budget head, Miller said she can work on monitoring the budget with

Lynette Shaw, ASPLU comptroller. She Will also receive management summary report.&. With these added authorities, she said, she can help prevent overspen­ ding from occurring. "Nothing 9 i different.., but there were some fcars." Miller said. "We use the same constraints, but the lIuthority ho.!J just changed hands." Shaw said that t.cchnically the change in budget heads has not changed the way ASPLU runs. "IC, just two dif· ferent personalititls." she said. Since Swenson works out of a different office than ASPLU, she said. sometimes they had problems connecting when she need· ed advice or approval for spending. Ideally.

"They (the administration) let you have enough rope, but not enough to hang yourself with," Shaw said. She said that her suggestion is not an attack on the administration, but rather a com· mentary on how PLU runs. This week, ASPLU submitted its first budget proposal to Fenili. In past years. ASPLU·s budgeting syswm ran out of sync with the rest Df the university. Since ASPLU did not figure out a budget until after the university, Fenili

was forced to give them an allotment of money without having any idea what their spending plans were. Shaw said that by submitting a pro­ posal, ASPLU now has a say in the university's budgeting system. She said ASPLU's new budgeting process makes the student body justify its spending and therefore promotes a higher level of responsibility. Miller said that ASPLU's new budget system, implemented at the request of FeniJj and the approvsl of ASPLU, represents a much more significant change than receiving a new budget hud. When the university receives ASPLU's budget request, Miller said, ASPLU's needs will flnally be con· sidered before money is distributed. "Students now have an opportunity to give more input about their spending needs," she said.

U p-and-co m i n g band rocks PLU ton igl.1J by Cameron Clark Masl

reporler

The Portland·bued band Crazy 8's will bring it5 unusual brand of music and " crazy" antics to PLU's Chris Knutzen Hall lonight. Although the members of the group call themselves a dance band, the term "Think·and·Dance" best band epitomites tltis group. "We're trying to write songs that mean something and take a political stand," said Todd Duncan, sllJ(ophonist. lead vocolist. and principal 5Ongwritcr. " But we're alw a good time band." The band will play music from its new, ly released LP, "Nervous in Suburbia." The album is a follow-up to their first LP, "Law and Order," which has sold over 13 thousand copies in the Nor· thwest and reached number one on (I d07.en college pillylists. In addition to extensive collegiate e;>e' posure. the Cra.ty 8's were contestants on the television show "Star Search" and fell subject to a subsequent fe'lLure in TV Guide.

They will play their !IOmewhat abstract style of progressive pap that has been described as "UB40 meets the Kingsmen on the set of Animal House." Musically, the 8's offer a provocative blend of ska, reggae. rhythm and blues, jllZ7., pop, and rock. all descending from on Oregon SUIte University jan band background. Although the group's various styles gathers cheers for diversity, often the conflict in musical genres results in an unclear and unidentifiable sound. Throw in the political lyrics. and clouds can be seen hovering over the dance floor. The Crazy B's, however. offer much more than most run-of·the-mill lounge bands. "Wherever we go people have fun­ and we have fun," said guitarist Mark Wanaka. The music begins at 10:15 tonight in the CK. Special j,'Uest band "Strypcs" .....ilI be performing until II p.m. The Cra.7.y 8's will take the stage for three hours of dancing and Northwest rock 'n' rotl. Admission to the dance is S3.

Cab Calloway belts out the blues In a recent performance of the Cotton Club Revue scheduled to appear at Tacoma's Pantages Cenlre next week.

A lilLie bit of 1933 Harlem comes to Tacoma next Thursday and Friday at 8 p.m. when Cab Calloway's Cotton Club Revisited comes to the Pantages Centre. The musical revue featuring vocalist and band leader Cab Calloway, known as the Hi·Dee-Ho Man. includes tap and soft shoe dance numbers. burlesque comedy. the blues. and "Minnie the Moocher." AltHough the original Cotton Club closed ita doors over 40 years ago, Cab Calloway has kept its spirit alive with the same style show that mobsters and society matrons went to see in Harlem. Duke Ellington and his band opened at the club n i 1927 and began a tradition of dusic big: band performances there. EU· ington was followed by orchestras led by Sammy Cahn, Ted Koehler, Mary LOu Williams, and , of course, Cab Calloway. Calloway is a veteran performer who has more on' stage energy than his 78 years would lIuggest. Attired in his usual beige tuxedo, he jumps, swings to the music and sings with abandon. He has a;'lpeared in many movies, including the late-70s rum The Blues Brothers Just as the Cotton Club attracted aU types of people in the 308. today aU ages and types attend the Cotton Club Revue. The audience is usually a mix of young and old, white and black. Calloway, along with the others in the cast, perform songs of the 30s, 40s, and 50s. Selections may include song! such as "World on a String," "Heat Wave," "Good Time Charlie's Got the Blues," and "Stormy Weather." Friday night's show has been sold out, but as of yesterday tickets were still available for Thursday's performance. Tickets are $26,50, 522.50, and $19 for adults and $23.75, $l9.50, and $16.50 for students and senior citizens. $4 tickets for any remaining seats will be available on either day of the performance to students and seniors.

believed it would be fun for the students and something different from other entertainment acts at PLU this year. Both comedians have been perfor· ming for several year, in professional settings. Hanna has appeared in con· cert with comediahs Robin William, and Pee Wee Herman. Anderson won the Seattle Laugh-Off comedy contest.

Randell said the roffee shop is be­ ing used for the show to create more of a "night club" effect. Popcorn and mocktails may be sold to contribute to the mood, as well. Admission to the performance is

A video was also done ad Dead Stop, was directed by Ka� Krostad of Seattle and won "1985's Best New Music Video" from the Northwest Film Association.

Comedian Ray Hanna Hanna uses improvisation in his routine. He plays an electric keyboard and pokes fun at pop singers hy changing the lyrics to their songs.

Rec i t a l t o u r p rov i d e s p rof w i t h n ew e n e rg y by Jenna Abrahamlon Masl slaff reporier Many musicians find themselves torn between the need to perform as student.s of music and their desire to teach 8.!1 professors of music. But one PLU faculty member recently found a way to do both. "I was getting a litLle crabby." said Associate Professor of Music Richard Farner. " I find that 1 have a greater amount of patience with studenls now and I'm more fired up." Farner traveled to the e8.9tern United States on a sabbatical leave last semester to perform a prepared piano recital for four internationally known artist·teachers. He was awarded the Regency Advanceme.'lt Award grant l8.9t year that enabled him to continue his studies in piano instruction and technique. Farner performed his NlCital pro­ gram on campus last Wednesday as part of the annual Lila Moe Memorial Scholar!lhip perfonnance. He began working on his perfor· mance pieces last summer and con· tinued practicing until his departure in the fall. He said the music provid· ed a significant addition to his reper­ toire and W09 also used as subject pieces in his advanced music classes. Compositions with a graduate level difficulty by Schubert, Schumann, Soler, and Ravel were included in the program. Each teacher who critiqued his work differed in his opinion of it. said Farner. "They spoke n i very different languages and from different perspectives," he said. He was nut heard by Benjamin

Whitten, a faculty member at the Philadelphia College of Performing Arts and chair of the piano depart· State Westchester at ment University. Another of the ejudicators, Bela Nagy, a former teacher at the Lis%t Academy in Budapest, taught him many techiniques of Romantic literature. said Farner. These can be applied to many other types of music. as well, he said. Farner visited his old music school and played for the new head of the doctoral program there. Theodore Lettvin. "After 10 minUteS he knew me and my playing better than I did," he said. Farner describes Lettvin's teaching as "light.hearted and almost. stream·lined in consciousness... After workingwith Lettvin. he said " it's no small thing that after 35 years of playing the piano I can now play a predictably good tri1l." His final stop on his recital tour was the Cleveland Institute of Music where he met with his first teacher. Marianne Matousek Mastics. Farner said he can now appreciate her exper· tise from the teaching end ofmusic. Farner plans to return to Philadelphia next year to perform a public recital, a result of his sab· batical tour. Farner said the impact of his trip will continue far into the future, affecting his playing and his teaching. " I t took me many miles to rediscover freedom and responsibili· ty lin teaching)." he said. And now, he said, he can pass his experiences on to his studenls.

Dream Academy offers nightm ares, not drea ms by Cameron Clark Masl reporler Under the guidance of former Pink Floyd keyboardist David Gilmour, the newly released album from The Dream Academy falls short of its originally pro­ mising expectations.

The first single released from the album. "Life n a Northern Town." reflects an early 70s, Fifth Dimension "Up, up, and away n i my beautiful balloon sound" masked with 80s hightech synth·programming. The single has been given n i creasingly large

amounts of air-time and sales. The song rCt!ks of depressing nostalgia, "I t felt like the world would freeze. without John F. Kennedy." "As the train rolled out of sight. byebye," ( most of the album does the same thing.)

Loneliness. despair. and a call for social·awareness are common themes utilized by !lOng writer, guitarist and lead vocalist Nick Laird·Clowes. His redundant lyrics play on the mind discouraging happiness, complacency, and apathy. However, any significant message is lost amidst the confUSing ar· ray of instrumentals. I am a true ad· vocate of diverse musical abilities and styles, but this album is silly.

"The Dream Academy" is a tmly abstract adventure that thrusts the listener from the age of 80s synthetic junk to the early ages of jazz (the last cut on the album, "One Dream " com' . bines flashy trumpet licks and acoustic bass with a new wave voice!?). If trying to bore. confuse, and tire listeners were the intentions of the group and its producer, then I must give an "A" for ambition.

Editorial

Better late than never There is no Question that ASPLU's president, Laurie Saine, and the Election Board blew II by not properly handling ASPLU's up· coming elections (please see related story, page 1). Despite Ihis goof, ASPLU's officers showed character by resisting the tempta· tion to sweep the mess under the rug. They, i nstead, openly admlt· ted their blunders and made the effort to correct them before they became a potentially much larger fiasco. Areas where criticism is due include: • The lack of communication between Soine and Dan Merchant, chairman of the election board. • Merchant and Soine's failure to submit election rules to the ASPLU senate for approval. • The Election Board's failure to provide potential candidates with accurale and complete information concerning PLU's student elec· tion process. Taking these shortcomings into consideration, it is still commen· dable that the executive officers recognized that the carelessness could lead to a discreditted election marked by confusion. Calling foul belore the election is much easier than waiting for critics of ASPLU to raise serious doubt of the vatldlty of the·electlon after the process Is over. There is no excuse for sloppy administration and poor planning, but recognizing such errors and correcting them early is a responsl· ble arid commendable action.

RHC has elections, too On the subject of student elections, students shouldn't overlook the upcoming RHC elections. In past years, RHC council positions have been filled by can· dldates who have run unopposed. ScotLDunmire. outgoing RHC chairman, noted recently that not enough stud�nts have expressed an interest In running for RHC positions. ASPLU elections tend to receive much more. allentJon an� notoriety than do RHC elections. The work of RHC exec�tlves tends to be much less apparent than that 01 their ASPLU counterparts. Despite this, RHC positions offer both responsiblity, experience and reward. Students interested in getting involved should not overlook the opportunities offered by RHC positions. •

ASSOCiate professor, social work He looked a little like Fernando Valen· zuela. Left·handed. Barrel chested.. He set up his fastball with an effeetive change. And he stayed ahead in the count. The Mariners could have used him last year. The scoreboard operated manually, and the announcer on the public address system spoke Spanish. Otherwise it was like watching a major league ballgame n i the United States. Only it was a Saturoay afternoon n i January at the ballpark in Managua, capitol of Nicaragua; where "basebul" is the closest thing to a na!-i0na! sport.

What could be more American (or should J say, North American) than to play and appreciate baseball like these athletes and fans were doing? As baseball seems to stand for the United States, the guarantee of basic human rights for all citizens, especially the most vulnerable, s i equally prized in Nicaragua. In the article printed last week an im· portant phrase was inadvertently omit· ted. It should have read, "Our govern' ment says that El Salvador is trying to ensure basic human rights for its people, and that Nicarogua it! a police :ftate.

From what I saw it's just the opposite." IOmitted part in italics.) I emphasize that thought because it accurately captures the experience of our group during our ten days in Central America. While in EI Salvador, we sens· ed a tightness and fear n i the people there. Once we arrived in Nicaragua the con· trast was remarkable. In Nicaragua the people do not fear their own soldiers, perhaps for the first time in their history. In Centra) America tMt's revolutionary! Sitting among the live1y crowd at the ballpark I wondered why my govern· ment is so hostile towards the govern· ment of Nicaragua. Why doesn't my country applause the impressive achievements in health care and literacy? Why do we impose an economic embargo instead? The Sandinista government is not perfect. It has made bad mistakes, such as the forced evacuation of Miskito In· dians from the Rio Coco early in the Revolution. But they have admitted the mistake and are making special efforts to correct it, which in itself is a rarity for any government. The government has expended a tremendous amount of energy since the overthrow of Somoz.a in 1979 trying to reverge decades of wrongs and waste, and tryins to improve the quality of life for the people. The Sandinistas inherited an economy that was n i shambles from the earth· quake of 1972, the draining of the

wealth of the country by Somoz.a, and the devastation of the war. Early successell may have raised. ex· pectations beyond what could realisticaUy be delivered. There is no question that the need to mobiliu resources to counteract the Contra forces based. in Honduras .and Costa Rica has hampered the revolution considerably, There jUst is not enough money around to do what needs doing. For example, public transportation is inadequate. Residents of Managua tire of waiting for buses that often are full on arrival Nevertheleu it appeared. that Nicaraguans generally know that the government is doing ss much as can be done given the circumstances. It also seemed there was widespread awareness and approval of the fact that the government is determined to im· prove the conditions of life for poor pe0ple in the countryside. Having access to all the land the Somoza family had acquired over the years [about eighteen per cent c.f the agricuituraJ land in the entire country) has been a big advantage. Much of that is in the process of being given to landless farm families. We visited a community of 95 people in the hill country above Matagalpa. They had been driven from their land near the Honduras border by Contras, and the government gave them about twenty acres here, plus a loan of 400,000 cordobas to buy seed, build a ctlmmon house, and cultivate the land. In fiv, months they had earned 1,000,000 cordobas from the sale of vegetables they had grown. These people were desperately poor. They carried deep emotional scars from the atrocities dealt to children and spouses by the Contras. But they a1ro now had hope. They eculd see some possibilities. That is what s i new, and what the revolution in NicaTagua is about. Our group had an hour with Cesar Jerl!%, Rector of the University of Cen· traI America, the Catholic university in Managua. He was aware of the fragility of this new thing that is happening there. He compared the revolution to a little flower that powerful winds from the north can destroy, but which many hands there and from around the world are trying to nourish and keep alive. Most of those hands, he reminded us, were from North America and Western Europe, not the Soviet Union. Later I spoke with a member of the faculty at U.C.A. who had received a Master's degree from an American university in 1981. She shared with me her bewilderment at our government's hostile policy towards Nicarngua: " The Sandinistas are trying to heJp the poor people of Nicaragua. I'm middle class myself, but I support what they are do­ ins. Why is the United States so against us?"' I had no explanation. I am as barned lIS she is.

See Dr. Rieke. See his nice suit. Heia II YUppie. He t.alks fast. He is the hero of PLU. My brother told me. I'm visiting

college becat18e it's visitor's weekend. It', nice here, but kioda weird. I like to visit my brother. He', old.. He studies hard atuff like chemistry and math. He's crazy. I like to visit coUep because it makes me fl'd big, too. I like to fee! old. See my dad. He low. PLU. See my brother give him the bad news. "Tuition i going up again. Dad." See Dad frown. s The family is wiped out. Mom understands. "It's okay. We'll seJl the ., washer and dryer. Let's 88e yoUr room.

See my brother's room. What a mess! See Spunky. That's my brothet" s room· mate. He'l Iweaty. His car is a junker. He eells guru. He has a knife. Look at

the girlie posters on the wall. Look at the garbage on the floor. Old holds Mom. She looks scared. My brother aays, "Sit tIown." Oad says, "Let's go aee the other buildings." Spunky winks and I:os8ea his blade in the door. I don' t think Mom likes Spunky. Look, look. See the big brick building. It's the acience center. Look at the lab. It's big. Look at the upper machine.. It's upeDlive. See the profeuor. His whitecoat is funny. He looks like a doc· tor. Look at hil ailly grgen eyeglasaes. He thinka hE! is I frog.

He pushes us away from the count.e!' and down the hall real faat. See the center building. My brother keeps saying that the building ia "You aee," but I don't know what he meanl.

Time to eat... We wait in lin. We wait .orne more. Dad hatel to wait in line. Finally we are served. All they have is mushy goop. I like to eat at rest.llurants, but not this one. At lea.at I can drink pop. I eat fast and leave. See all the people going to the libruy. They are weird. too. Everyone is backpacking. There's DO mountain!

Lelterl Pro-Contra view bl asted To The Editor. I strongly object to Mr. EVllDlOn'l l�t· ter in the Ialt issue. I would like to offer some facta to counter some of the diatribe. In hil lint paragraph Mr. Evanson says, "Nicargua went communist," but later he says. "true communism has yet to take fullhold." Mr. Evanson s i wrong and right at the same time. Nicaragua is not communist. It has no communist party in power; it does not have f. com· munist constitution. There has been no abolition of private property; no one is proposing to take away Blanc. Rosa's i plies. The on' land as Mr. Evanson so m ly people threatening her human dignity are the Contras and they are doing it with American guns, jeeps, and helicopten... Here are a few facu about the Con· tres. The main group is the FON INicarguan Democratic Force, a triple n misnomerl. The FON WI!! founded i early 1981 when Reagan's appointed John Honduras, to ambas5Sdor Negroponte. was instructed to find a local means of interdicting the arms theoretically being smuggled from Nicaragua to EI Salvador. Negroponte was told not to contact ex·members of Somaza'lI Nlltional .Guard. because they were not believed to be a viable political alternative to the Sandinist.lls. Unfor­ . tunately the old guardsmen were the on· Iy ones interested in taking CIA money. Funded by the CIA, commanded by expatriated Argentine military officers, i st.llffed by guardsmen, and based n

Hond�raa. the FDN was neither Nicaraguan, democratic, nor much of a force. Prior to this there was no eltt.ernal opposition to the Sandinistas. Theae democratic brothers all got their start as CIA mercenerieal In hi! new book, Wit"

llIe OMt,..... A Reporter in tile WUtIs 01

NictU'Ofl_ Christopher Dickey, a respected Wu"ington POlt COlTeSpOn· dant and no friend of the Sandinistas. documents how the FON is only good at terroriz.ing civilians and killing each other. They have no planfor Democratic reforms. They have not even succeeded in capturing a Ijng� arms shipment, i what the CIA gave them money which s i the first place. Yet these thugs. for n President Reagan assures us, "are the moral equivalent of our founding fathers." Mr. Evsnson listed a few prominent Nicaraguans who oppose the Sandinista government, but he failed to mention that not one of them supports the FON in any way. And his statistic that "only 10 percent of the Contras are former supporters of SomOUl" is ridiculous! Think how nice we'd all feel if only 10 percent of the Republica'ns were former· ly Nazi S.S. That's how Nicaraguans feel about the old National Guard. Lastly Mr. Evanson does not claim to be more experience.:! in this area. And of the two I think Mr. Evsnson act! like he has the total picture, not Professor Han­ .!IOn. I am not about to tell snyone what their moral or political obligations are, but we all have an obligation to try to test jsrgon against facta and to try to find the truth.

Hanson's view is j u stified To the Editor.

It was nice to be ahle to read how things went for Profeuor Hansen dur­ ing his trip to EI Salvador and Having been to Nicaragua Nicaragua. . myself with 8 similar study group, I could relate to his story attempting to portray II very average view of life in Nicaragua, communicated through a 13'yelU'Old girl, Blanca Rosa. He was obviously very touched by what he had seen in Central America, as anyone who has been there is. But according to a letter from Tim Evan.!lOn (Feb. 141, the only thing the Professor Hansen brough home with him was a giant dose of guilt brought on by a few emotional experiences. True, it i . is hard to look a Nicaraguan womlln n the eye las she tells you of her hu!band who was killed by the Contras. who are funded by our government, while work· i the fieJdsland not feel guilty. But ing n most who have studied Nicaragua and have been there come back with a chsng· ed view of what is really happening down there. Of course it is not the "total picture." but it is a much more complete picture than that offered by the U.S. media Ito which Mr. Evanson seems to have fallen prey). The media. for the most part, regurgitates bdck to us all the an· tiNicaragus Reagsn rhetoric. including his simplt' cliches, like: "totalitarisn reginle," "reign of terror." "betrayed revolution," and the very popular "freedom fighters." If I could borrow s line from �1r. E\'anson, Mr. Reagan "at· tempts to play on our emotions and mislead us." The great majority of Nicaraguans in 1979 lived in desperate po\·erty. Since the revolution. the aim of the San· dinistas has i.oeell to bring these people out of their poverty-to provide ade-

quate health care. adequate education, enough food. and gjve land to the smaI..I farmer-in short. to gjve theae people some long-deserved "human dignity." This hasn't been easy, though. Nicaragua earns about 1450 million in uporta, but iteeds about 1900 million to run the country. The Pr8llent war with the "liberal democrat" Conuaa is coating Nicaragua a huge sum of money in potential export profits (Le., poor cof· fee huvests due to Contra harassment). It is not the least bit clear to me that "we must !Upport the Contras." It is quite clear, however. that we must DOt only resist our government's efforts to supply the Contras with military aid. but also support the Sandinistas in their i efforts to build a just society n Nicaragua. It is our mora! and Christian duty to do so. If we do not. then some day we may be "condemning thousands to a national gulag."

Marte Van Mouwerlk

N o s u bstance to ����!l n rhetoric For me, President Reagan's Stat,e.of· the-Union Address was reminiscent of my childhood. Specifically, my fond memories of eating St.II·Puft mar­ shmallows. Marshmallows really didn't have any substance or nutrition­ they're very artificial-but they were s",eet and kept a kid like me happy. It was nice to hear that "when storm· clouds loom darkest," Reagan's "rock· hard realism" will carry us "through the golden gateways to the farthest star." I .!lee Reagan's speech as a pace-setter of a larger trend in the TV and commercial advertising arena. Have you ever watch· ed the flJ'st 3f4 of II commercial and found yourself unsure of whether the product being sold was a beer, super­ market. financial plan, or diaper brand? Who can tell what the " song wbich rings through the winter night air" is selling? Reagan showed his fondness for one commercial. lelling us to "be all tha� we i the name can be" and called us to "act n of compassion" and "climb the ladder of opportunity," joining the "Americans striding forward to embrace the future" in a "time of rousing wonder and' heroic achievement." What a nice idea. I ",as fooling pretty good until he ask· ed us to "Join me now, and we'U walk t.his las� mile together. " Oid one of his dreams have a finality he didn't tell us about? A president that dreams as much i his address sometimes as he did n makes me worry. I wonder if he eats t,(X) much before going to bed at night... I think there's a les.!lOn for us in all of this. To be a Great Communicator, you dou't need 10gically presented or rele­ vant facts and ideas, so much as a very big list of cliches and trite expressions. If you make your marshmallow big i to it at all­ enough. people can't bite n they just sort of bounce off or else get l e it gets enveloped up by it. After a whi hard to keep swalloing marshmallows.

"The Whales are quick and have an effective running game," Coach Bruce Haroldson said. The Whales capitalized on their quickness which resulted in a close first haJf battle.

Americans are constantly searclting for a slight advantage that. will give them that needed edge that our com­ petitive society demands. The world of sports has recently been revolutionized by another technological innovation: sports psychology. Everyone from weekend golfcu to competitive swimmers are using sports psychology 8S part of their physical training and with remarkable successThe two main ingredients in sports psychology are concentration, which allows the athlete to focus more clearly on the sport. and visualization. mentally practicing the fundamentals of the 'portThe most common source of error in sports is a failure in concentration. Thia single aspect can speU the difference between success and failure in any sport. Applying your mental powers is needed throughout any performance but especially in the key situations. A baseball player must release the ball at a certain point in order for the throw to be . deadly accurate. Concentration is an essential element of sports because it allows the mind to focus on a specific action. All other thoughts, feelings and emotions are tun· "'oue Arnold Palmer compares the concen· tration he attains on the golfcourse to a dreaml.i..ke state that a great musician achieves during a great performance. Learning to concentrate during a workout or compeLition is not an easy task. particularly when there are exter' nal distractionns. The ability to tune out these distractions is the single most im· portant qualification:<lf concentration. Concentration involves tapping the large reservoir of our mental PO\lo"e1"S. Psychologists tells us that we only use around 25 percent of our potential. 1m· agine the amount of improvement and success our performance would possess if we could utilize a small portion of the existing 75 percent. Generally, concentration is focusing on one thing to the exclusion of everything else. The runner thinks about nothing but a smooth foot strike and a relaxed mind and body. The tennis player trunks about nothing but strok· ing the ball exactly where it should go. They do not think about the weather or their weekend plans. The focus ill i'ltrict· lyon the execution of the fundamentals of their sport. '

Another important aspect in sports psychology is visualization or mental i used by a few �ry. Visualization s recreational athletes. most college athletes and virtually aU profeuional athletes. Visualir.ation is a tech�que th4t uses the subconscious and conscious states of mind as information processors. These proceuors rehearse' the fun· damentals of the sport and store them in the memory system. The mind instructs the body to perform these tasks 01 if they were repeat performances it has made many times. Your mind convinces your body that playing like a champion is nothing new. Hence, you play the way your mind instructs you to. Visualization takes many hours of concentratinng on certain physical sen· sations. relaxing the body and focusing on the sport. Countless athletes are lear­ ning about the importance of visuaUza· tjl;m and are incorporating it into their training schedules. These athletes are realiz.ing that mental imagery C8Jl help them to reach their full athletic potential. A person's performance can be enhanced or damaged by mentga! im· agery. Olympic gold medaJ.i.st Phil Mahre is a perfect ezample. He reportP.d th4t when he concentrates on what he has to do and puts negative thoughts out of his mind he does well However. when he thinks about rough COIIfII(' con· ditions or the competition. he usually fails. Scientific rosearch on the benefits of visu.aliza.ion is presently a popular item among psychologists. medical doctors and physical therapists. From weekend road runners to major sports players. baaseball league psychology has become a major part of the American training ethic. Athletes are uncovering their hidden talenLS through this mind 'oriented way of training. A good example of visualization is provided by Dr. Richard Suinn. who is the sports psychologist lor the United States ski team. He instructed team members to use visualizaiton as part of their daily training. Suion found that when many of them skied the course in their minds, their feet began moving as if they were actually skiing. He also found that as an athlete envisioned a jump. his muscle activity and heart rate increased as if be 'd actually taken a jump.

" My dad doesn't push me, but sup­ ports me:' Wolfe said. "One of the reasons I do so well is because he has always come to all my matches." During his senior year at Curtis High School. Wolfe finished fourth in the state wrestling tournament. After high school, Wolfe wrestled varsity as a freshmsn at EIl5t.e:rn Washington University. He trsnsfered to PLU his sophomore year and became one of the top Lute wrestlers. He had a record of 22·7 his sophomore year. wrestling at 142 1bs.

ASPLU advisor's d uties expand by Kathy Lawrence Mast staff reporter An apparent lack of commun ication

and understanding caused a disruption

in ASPLU earlier this week when ex· ecutive officers became fearful over a change in their advisor's role. Mary Lou Fenill, vice president of Student Life, assured The Mast that although changes in the university's ap­ proach to student activities are in the works, the proposed changes will not alter ASPLU's role. Lynette Shaw, ASPLU comptroller, said ASPLU was caught off·guard when posters announcing a Feb. 24 perfor­ mance of a classical guitariat appeared around campus. She said the surprise was that their advisor, Dana Miller, was listed as the host of the event. She said she had never heard of one person hosting an e\'ent. Therefore, she said, she became concerned that their advisor was competing with them in scheduling activities Aftt'f ASPLU discovered that Miller was hoaling an c\'enL. they were oon·

eerned about how the event was flDlllc­ l ed, assuming that Miller had been given a budget ndependent i from ASPLU. "I just wish they would have told us what was going on," Shaw said. Miller was unavailable for comment this week due to illne!l8. Fenili said Miller's concert was not subsidized by the University. She said Miller worked out a deal with the pef" former, William Carlos, in which he played at PLU in m:change for m:posure and admisaion fees. "She IMiller) has not been given an ac· tivities budget," Fenili said. "But the issue needs to be addressed." Student government does !lot equal student activities, Fenili said, noting that one of the reasons Miller was hired was to improve student activities. PLU, Fenili said, would like to give students a larger variety of learning ac· tivities. She said PLU needs to develop a body of student development beyond that of student government. "Dana �liller would be responsible for that," �he said. She added that most universities have an office of student ac· tivities iree from "" tripn! ,lfovernment.

If PLU moves in that direction, she said, Miller would need a budget. The way ASPLU has structured it9ll1f, Fenili said, its executive officers have overwhelming responsibilities, while senators wait to vote on the legislation that is brought to them. This relation. �p, she said, limits ASPLU's produc. tlVlty and perhaps prevents it from tru. ly reflecting the student Iwdy's needs. "Somebody has a rnisperception about what the students really want," Fenili said. It is the responsibility of the university, she said, to find out what students need. She said she hopes PLU can start picking up some of the slack between ASPLU programs and student body needs. She added that although there may be some overlap, the ad· ministration is not challenging ASPLU's programming. "Sometimes students make moun· tains out of molehills," Fenili said. "We all do that." She said the role of ASPLU's advisor is changing because of Mmer's abilities. ASPLU is not being threatened, she said. Miller's educational emphasis lies in student development, the focus that

After saying, "Bruce has my vote and I hope you support him," Bedal gave the spotlight to the remaining candidate for ASPLU·President, Bruce Deal. Veal. a junior, began by thanking the audience for comi ng and then described his experience and outlined his goals for the 1986-87 year. He said that his main goals as president include increasing publicity of ASPLU actions. working with the budget to increase efficiency, fostering student involvement and fostering an awareness 01 worldwide issues such as PLU's economic interests in South Africa.

She said a co-cuniculum s i an im· portant part of the learning process because it gives I!ttudents an opportuni· ty to figure out who and what they are outside of the classroom." Jennifer Hubbard, ASPLU vice presi. dent, said that although she agrees that PLU could do a lot more programming for its students, ASPLU felt threatened because the administration's intentions were not explained prior to Miller's con· cert. She said the lack of l,.'Qmmuniclltion caused the tension in ASPLU.

Medical care available without violating confidentiality by SonJ' O.trom

Mast reporter

Confidentiality is a major concern for students seeking medical care for per' sonal health care needs such sa birth control. sell:uaUy transmitted diseases, and drug and alcohol abuse, said Judy Wagonfeld, seU careJwellness coor' dinator at PLU's Health Center. After an article on birth control ap­ peared in the Mast last semester, Wagonfeld said the Health Center received an increase n i calls from 9tudents who wanted birth control infor­ mation . but were afraid their records would not be kept confidential. Wagonfeld said that some stu�ents in ac­ are afraid their parenLS can obta cess to their student medical files. "Many people are conf�� about . medical records in general, she s8ld. "The Health Cenle!" abides by the same guidelines as other health facilities; records are kept confidential." Health Center receptionist/now coor' dinator Val CaTT said the medical records are kept for four years after a student's last visit lind then are shredded. The only time information in a stu' dent medical record is released is when the 9tudent writes a written request

releasing information to outside hospitals, said Carlyn Wold, a RN in the Health Center. "Students are concerned about con­ fidentiality because of the size of the campus, and because students have always been under their parent's atten· tion," Wold said. "Now to make the transition. many students are sure their parents still have control." Occasionally the Health Center gets requests from parents to release infor­ mation about their daughter Or son, (.an- said, "but we do not give out any information unless we have permission from their daughter or son," she said. The student workers are trained to keep all information confidential, Carr said. "They're so busy here with assign· ed jobs, they wouldn't have the oppor· tunity to sit and look through a stu· dent's medical file," she said. Requesting students to CJl:plain in writing their medical problem is another way the Health Center encourages privacy, she said. When students check in with the receptionist, they are re­ quired to fill out a form with their name, address, and medical problem, which eliminates the need for the receptionist to verbally ask about the problem in front of other students. The Health Center will provide a pro-

Tod� Heclal has been forced to withdraw from the ASPLU presidential race llec!luse he is only a part·time student and the ASPLU election guidelines re­ quite executive candidates to be enrolled full·time . Bedal. who is carrying only eight credits this seme9ter, said he originally thought he would be eligible to run for president because he planned to carry a full load lat lea!lt 10 crediul in September. Bedal chose to withdraw from the campaign because he said that he would not have time for two extra credit hours because of research projects relaled to his major which requires over 15 hours per week. He said that to pick up the additional credit!! would cost $1,400 and that was not economically feasible for him. Bedal sliid that he hoped that the rule would be changed in the future. ASPLU President Lsurie Soine said that changing the rules is "definately something ASPLU should look into nut year."' At this point the rules have not been changed snd it will be up to nell:t year's Election Board to recom' mend changes. "We shouldn't hold back someone who really want9 the job just because they don't ha\'e over 10 credits." Soine said. Soine said there is a discrepancy in the ASPLU Constitution and in the elec· tion rules that wer� passed by the senate last Thursday. Accotding to Soine, the con9titution says that candidates must only be "enrolled" in PLU, however the Election Board Statement of Purpose and the election rules stipulate that candidates for president must be full·time studenta. " I wish I could have run for president. I think I could have done a goodjob." Bedal said. "Other than thst J just wish I could have been a €:andidate," he added.

Wold said, but they di8COurage giving instructors that kind of information. she said. .Pregnancy tests, tests for sexually transmitted diseases, and otber lab work is billed to the student's account and is listed as a "Health Center Charge, " Wold said. Students can pay for lab tests separately so they do not appear on their student accounts.

Wagonfeld said college can be "a co�· fusing time for students because their parents may still be paying the bills, yet students are making their own decisions." "Nobody wants to feel that anyone has knowledge of their personal deci· sioM," Wagonfeld said. "Pa-sonal infor· mation about students stays here just like any other medical problem."

ASPLU cleans shop with six proposals legislation to committee on it first reading. Two of the other four proposals that were passed deal with election rules. One proposal specified the detail9 of how the election would be run while the other proposal outlined the steps a s.ludent needs to take in order to run for an of· fice. "Although they (the two elction proposals) were pretty general, we couldn't have had elections this year without them," Hubbard said. The other two proposaLs delete two accounts, but establish ASPLU another. ASPLU decided that its photo lab and publicity accounts were not run' ning cost effectively and therefore were eliminated, while the deferred ell:penses account was established. Lynette Shaw, ASPLU mmptroJler, 9aid that ASPLU had a budget for a photo lab that was not be ing used. "I think they Ithe photo lab) have done S50 in business this year," she said. "ft's not cost effective to pay a student to sit in a room that is not being used." The publicity account, Shaw said, was

ASPLU cleaned up shop in their February 20 meeting by P..Bssing sill: senate proposals w ith minimal discus· 9ion from the floor. "Cleaning up shop is never fun. That's all we were doing," said Jennifer Hubbard, ASPLU vice president. Hubbard said that although the senate passed sUr. proposals without any debate, the issues thst were voted on are important. Periodically, she said, ASPLU has to make internal changes to ions. keep its policies in tune with operat For example, she said, the election rule changes that were passed are necessary if elections are to be held this year. "Internal changes are not very ell:ciling. but very important:' Hubbard said. The proposal dealt with a variety of internal functions including ell:ecutive compensation, senate legislative process, electon revision9, budget account deletions, establi9hment of a deferred ell:penses account, and changes in the olso idle.

Editorial

...." s..""""

�'1< '� �'�

••

A couple 01 items in thIs week's Opinion page prompt an explana· tion concerning the process of organizing this particular section of The Mast. As Mark Peterson points out in a letter printed this week, the editorial section of The Mast i s one of the more widely read sec· tions (behind pizza coupons and sportS) and those of us on the staff realize Ihis. Peterson's leller provides a timely opport lnity for The Mast to ex· plain to its readers that all leiters are welcome. prOVIded they are signed (preferrably by the individual(s) who author them). Leiters are seldom edited, although laste and length are considerations. The authors of all iellers will always be consulted when editing is required. and they will be g iven the first opportunity to shorten the lellers when available space will nol accomodate the entire leller. The Mast also welcomes students and foculty to contact us In regard to contributing columns to the paper. This week we are printing the final column of a four·parl series by faculty member Vern Hanson, who contacted The Mast prior to the first issue, and proposed that he put together a series based on In· formation gathered during recent trip to Central America. The Mast's edi torial staff appreciates Hanson'S contribution and invites students and faculty who feel they have a special insight on social and political issues of today to get i n touch with us to discuss the possibitities of contrubuting one or several columns in The Mast's opinion section. We do, of course, reserve the right t o determine whether the Quality or topics of our contributors' columns are suitable for Th e Mast. Nonetheless. we do realize that a diverse and insightful opi· nion section is paramount lor any newspaper and hope The Mast can continue to produce such a section through the remainder of the semester. ..

February 2S, 19116, The Mas1 7

by Clayton Cowl

Mast stall reporter

St.rike up • tune! The ever expanding throb of mu! media have jlll'J'ed the PLU campus population again. Huny, hurry, hurry as you, too, can join the thousands of other PLU campaign hopefuls and toss the hat into the ring. Come onel Come alll It's ASPLU and RHC campaign time and evef)'one knows about it this time around.

See the hundreds of glossy, colorful, witty, bland. boasting and brilliant posters blessing the entire campus! b there an election. you ask? Where have you been? A8PLU prepared the masses with 8 practice run in signing petitions.

AS P L U c i rcus has come to town visiting the ASPLU aecreatary and palstering buildings witb megatons of campaign material Yessireel You enD choo"e from a varie­ ty of candidates in every office. In ring one we have the candidates with the eure-fln! way to catch atten· tion. They place posters in every con­ ceivable place that prospective voters may ever want to look. That's right. Everywhere. On building!!. In the halla, aCfOSS trees, in windows, over stairwells and even in toilet stalls. Yes, it's truly an amaz.ing event. Real democrscy in process. There's no doubt 8Omeone has thrown their hat in the ring at PLU. This time it's for real. In ring two are the rare and incredible

Evanson's view is justified To the edilor: Professor Hanson has come away from Central America. having been misinformed ond sadly misguided. He has talked to several people in his travels, but how many of these sup­ ported the Contras, and how many SUp' ported the Sondinistos'! We really don't know from his art.icles. For 1111 we know, Professor Han�n heard only one side of the story. Frolll his IIrticies. that conclu· sion seems likely. \\-'hat do the S(lndinist.as really say? They repeatedly call for II " proletarian revolution." They ask time and again for "help from the MarxistJLeninist vanguards that broughl us to power." Come on! If the Sandinistas were really democratic and peace-loving, why do they spout off like this? True, some of this may be rhetoric. but even this kind of talk s i dangerous and shows a trend to a totalitarian dictatorship like the kinds we see in Vietnam and Cuc.hoslovakia. We do know the difference. Dr. L. Francis Bouchey n i his book Ct:ntraJ .Amerira: ReCtJwtJon in IYfil in 1982 makes it dear. The Sandinistas were founded by Fidel Castro in a 8e(:ret meeting in Havanna in late 1977. and then co-opted what was left of the democratic freedom.fighters in Nicaragua. They delltroyed their fellow rebels who were trying to get democracy, and put in their place Com­ munist leaders like Ortega and Arce. No matter what the Sandinistas clln do for the people of Nicaragua now, in the future they will destroy the country. It is the future the Contras are fighting for, not the present or past. And despite any problem we might have with the Contras being who they are, we can't ask them to be perfect. We must accept our only option to totalitarian Mar:r.ism. Professor Hanson also makes major errors in his analysis of EI Salvador. Notice that no one wrote n i saying how l!T8at they thought that article was. The

truth is, it wasn't so great. The united Nations has agreed: the recent elections there were fair and free. The rebels are on the run, and are reduced to kidnapp­ ing duly-elected officials for ransom. The people don't support the rebels. and neither should .....e. When we asked for S8 billion for economic aid to Salvador, Congress choked. So all we can offer is miliLary aid. And that aid will help keep the rebels at bay while business rebuilds and people can start their lives over again. Sure. there are death squads still acth·e. But they are decreasing in number. and will continue to do so. We can't ask President Duarte to instantly corre<:t a situation years n i the making. He has made tremendous progress-we shouldn't pull the rug from under him now. Funny but no one asks about Hon· duras or Guatemala Iny more. That is because our policies there are working. Guatemala has had free civiliam elec­ t ions now, and not because they had liberal pressure from the US. They fought off the rebels all by themselves. and have democT8cy right now. The Honduran government has been democratic for four years now. and has passed its first Constitutional crisis with flying colors. No military interven· t ion was in the works in Honduras: the military stayed in its barracks. That is the succes story of the US policy in Cen­ tral America. That is what will happen n i Nicaraugua and El Salvador, too, if we will only let t, Interviews and personal experiences are fine. But outside thought and look· ing at the whole picture rather than be­ ing overwhelmed by emotion are also justified as a means of determining American policy. We should look at the long·range impact of what we are doing. If we do. we might see that we should support the Contras, and Duarte-not the rebels and Sandinistas. Karl Jastak

Mast accused of using 'yellow-dog sensationalism' loTheEdltor: There is nothing worse in this wOfld than a liar, and when someone tries to cover up his Iiaa, then there is created a double-sin. Clearly, the MfUlt has lied to us. The MfUlt mu�t be accused of bias and ideological moralisr:l which have twisted your and my ways of thinking. How has this happened? Consider: the editorial page is perhaps one of the most widely read pages next to the sports pages and front page. But it obviously contains inaccuracies designed to force us to think in terma of David Steves. not you and J . Mr. Steves tries t o clearly put h is own kind of editodal articles on the editorial page. not factual or unbiased reporting. The recent headlines of "Letters to the Editor" are an example. Evanson's pro­ Contra article is titled "Contras Not So Uad," ali if they are bad and Evanson

thinks so too, but still supports them. Hardly. Evanson would probably have called his letter "Support the Contras," a more neutral term. And tho follow-up letters are worse, Mr. Steves. Blasted"!? View "Pro-Contra "Blasted." as if it had no merit what· soever! Get real here. Of course it had ' merit, and was well though out and had facts n i it. But oh no, not according to Steves. The other letter was just as bad: "Hanson's view is Justified." As if Han· son couldn't defend his own view point! "Justified"-what a moraUy righteous sounding term! A more neutral title never entered Steves' head! And the editorials themselves show just as much bias and distortion. Steves sooms to think he can subtly coerce you and I into thinking cert.sin ways through media agending·setting. ond thus create opinion more in line with hi�

wallang aDd talking funnelheads. Yes fol.k.a, these unbelievable human Spongel eoak up ever:ything you say before elections, but after the final t.allies are taken, BINGO! They epill out the funnel into the brine of red tape, laziness and utter Itupidity. And dOll't forget the e:r.otic money snatcherl over in ring three. These creature! fde for office to C()llect money to sit at a desk in the University Center and hope that they won't appear to have collected too much dust until their ne:r.t 13,000 or $4,000 paycheck. Step right upl In ring four we have the amuing popularity gntbbers. Yes, without effort these striking individuals can n i fluence votes in their favor. Just beingthere is all it takes.

In the last ring, we have candidltes with many unique futures. Yeeaireel Theae eandidates nlll for office with • deeire to help fellow students by doing the bestjob poaaib1e for an entire term. They do thia in • clusy, effident man­ ner and do not decide to quit immedillte­ Iy following an election victory. They run without ripping down other can· didate's posLers, without filing strictly for money and without intentions of maligning other candidates. Theae e:r.hibits in the last ring are escaping fat, so hurry on down and witness the impossible. rr. by chance, they stey in the ring. you, yes you, may have thechanee to vote for them. Hurry, hurry, hurry! Supplys i lim.ited.

ProSandinista view blasted Tolhe Edilor: There is. unfortunately. on the cam' pus of Pacific Lutheran. a dearth of in· formation concerning Central America. What is even more unforutnate is when people try to make themselves informed on the subject, and end up w ith one­ sided views because they know no bet· ter. Schroeder and Van Mouwerik have sadly fallen into this trap. They want to do the right thing, but arc misinformed. The only source these gentlemen seem to frind to support their conclusions is Chris Dickey's With tM Contnu. But Dickey himself admist at the eDd of his book that he entered Nicaragua with a bias against the Contras, and that he purposefully made no effort to find out about reported Sancfutista- atrocities that have taken place in 1984 and 1986. But the majority of scholarly opinion worth it's salt tells us that Nicaragua is Communist and that we should support democratic alternat ives to tu San­ dinistaa. The Kissenger Commision Iwhom everyone considered non· partisan) seemed to I:ome to the same conclusions as Reagan did. The Council on Inter-American Security, usually a liberal think·tank. believes we should do more for the Contras, not less and much more than Reagan proposes. The U.N. Commissioner for Refugees hardly con· siders the Sandinisw legitimate, and has visited Contra C8l1'.ps five times to offer his support. The list goes on. Maybe people should read the article by Charles Krouthammer, "In Defense of Interventionism," in the Feb. 17 ssue i of the New Republic. Krauthammer lays it on the line there and in the April !. 1985 issue of Time: support the Contras or lose Central America. The Contras are the democrats in Nicaragua. We cannot expect them to be angels. so why apply absolutist stan· dards to them like Mr. Schroeder does? The Democratic Party has socialists and Marxists in it. but people still vote for Mondale. Why should we not do the same for people n i a much more danger­ ous and unstable place like the coun' tryside of Nicaragua-the Contras? The rON has a plan of action: a federated 5tate davoted to democracy. They get

own than what .....e might really think. This sort of yellow-dog. sensationalist journalism should have left w ith the Na· tional Enquirtr and Daily Star in the daily trashI And Steves hardly allows for oppos­ ing viewpoints on the editorial pages. He allows Dr. Hanson to have his leftist way with the e idtorial pages, but when a differ-ent view point than Steves' cornea along, it gets lahed to the m.izzen·Ma.rf and gets forty whippings!! No alter· native view is offered. nor asked for! No one who wants to get a conservative or even mainstream view across can do so because Mr. Steves gets to play God with the editorial pages! Is anyone asked to do a series oppos· ing Mr. Hanson? No! Is anyone allowed to present opposite vie....s . on a regular basis? No! Is anyone even allowed to

help wherever they can find it: Argen· tina, Israel, the US. But they are in· digenous. They rose spontaneously in 1980, not 1981. Reagan aid came to them in 1982, and when it was cut off in 1984. the Contras continued La grow in size and numbers. The former San· dinistas who now are supporting the Contras clearly do not want American domination, but they realize that in order to defend the betrayed revolution. they must accept US funds. But these two students do not quarrel w ith the basic point: The Sandinista revolution is warped, it is Communist, and we must do something to stop it. Even if all the allegations about the Con· tras are true. we must still support them and attempt to topple the Sandinista regime. for it would be the only hope the people of Nican.gua would have. When there is a choice of two evils. Olle does not ch� to stop playing the game. That is called isolationiam. It doesn't work, and historically has gotten WI into war. We must choose the lesser evil. Political Scientist John Spanier in the 1984 Gam., Nariorl$ Pla.JI makes it clear: we must support the Contras. I make no claim to moral authority. 1 make no claim to factual accuracy either. But based on the preponderance of evidence, the argumenta presented in hundreds lliterally) of articles, books, and pamphlets, I believe that the only choice available to us morally and politically is support of the Contras. Our choice is clear: the only hope Ihowever slim) ill the Contras. Hanson does not talk about the political . ideology of the Sandinistll8. He should. They are Mar:r.ist. and they will even­ tually destroy what is left of Nicaragua. We must support the group that 60 per­ cent of the Nicaraguan people do !Gallup figuresl. In the long run, only democracy will truly give the Nicaraguans what they want: peace and prosperity and freedom. It will take time. But in time the Sandinistas will prevail. We must act now to help the Contras.

TIm Evanson

present their own. fully unedited views? No! Perhaps David Steves keeps things from us. Perhaps he keeps letters he doesn't like (rom view. Perhaps he edits letters to remove vital parts, 90 these letters look foolish and dumb. Maybe, maybe not. Who knows but David Steves? Can we let this go on? Obviously not. We must stand up for our rights. We must show how angry we can get. We must not believe everything we see in the pages of this scandal. called the Ma.rt. Perhaps things should ahut down until the Ma.rf galt! appropriate editoriali.z.ing. Media bias and self--censorship to in· fluence opinion is the lowest form of ly.

Cadets test leadership skills during mock combat situations in Field Training Exercise Kim Pec:hoes, ' Junior lit UPS, checks a besrlng on the comp••• and points the dlrec:tlo,,! to the mission destlnsllon. K.rI Bls..n kMJks on In the b.ckground, by Brian DalSelcon Mast projects editor "GOOD MORNING. CADETS," hollers thedistur· bingly cheery voice of rust sergeant Joe Blaney in the dark of the morning. The blinding lights flash on. Groans rise from the bunks all tired bodies pull themselves from their warm """ , The clock reads 0530. Another day of the Field Training Exercise (FTXI has beg\ln for the men and women of the army ROTC Chieftain battallion on North Fort Lewi9. The seventy ROTC cadets from assorted Northwest universities. including PLU, ventured to the training facilities at North Fort Lewis for threedaya last weekend to practice and demonstratetheir tactical knowledge and leadership skills. The FIX is an exercisedesigned for the M5-4's !fourth-year military science student9J topractice their leadership and teaching abilities. It also acts to prepare the M&3's for the ROTCre­ quired Advance Camp they must pass this summer, The entire F'TX is orgllniu!<!, coordinated, and taught by the MS-4's, The younger M&3'. 2'8, and I's are given the opportunity to observe instructional methods lind learn from the mistakes of the older CIIdets, In ROTC training, thecadets (Ire allowed to make mistakes. "It teaches them responsibility for their aelions," said Captain Rick Anderson, who teaches ROTC at Seattle U, " If we taught them everything, they wouldn't learn anything, That's why things haven't gone perfectly,"

The senior cadets did make a few mistakes, such as overordering food and not giving clear instructions on reading a C()mpass at night,

Fieldclasses,were taught by the MS-4'son patrolling and terrain navigation. After classes, the cadets broke iao five groups and moved through TAX rracticaJ Application Exercisel lanes, An MS3 was chosen in each group to lead the squad through simulated combat situations. The exercise was designed La let the cadets practice leading a group of soldiers toward an objective, where they encountered such diversions as snipers, prisonersof-war, barbed wire, booby traps, bunkers, and enemy artillery.

:�::�:�::::�:r�i���?�t ���=�� : ��

In each of the five Janes, the squads had an objective.

n � ' radio station, and secure a postion. Even though the exercise was completely safe from actual enemy fire, a feeling of uneasiness fell over the squad as they slowly moved through the woods. Suddenly, sniper fire cracked in the winter air. Cadet's dropped in their tracks and returned fire, Confusion filled the air as the squad leader barked orders. Eventually, the cadets worked their way to the o!). jective by either bypassing the diversion or ter­ minating it. The exercise tested the squad leader·s ability to make tactical decisions on the run in simulated combat situations. Lisa Manaloules, a third ycar nursing student at

PLU, wasa squad leader on the firatlane when her squad ran into sniper flte, The final objective for the squad was to take over an ammo dump, But when the sniper halted the group's progress, Manaloules pulled the troops back. rather than pushing forward. " My mind went blank when the shooting started." she said. A major problem of many of the cadet sq�ad leaders was that they forgot the original mission. "I learned that you must listen closely to the opera· tions order and get the details straight,·· �lanaJoules said. Between lanes, the squad got a FRAG (fragmentary) order, simulated to resemble updated mission orders a squad would receiv;.: in actual combat. The FRAG con­ tained aU the information they needed for the next leg of their mission. On another TAX lane. the mission was to take a POW. When the squad approached the POW sight. they encountered a bunker with an individual walking around out front.

The squad cautiously skirted the bunker 1.0 observe the scene. but caused a precious deluy of 15 minutes. " Time is precious in actual combat.': said Capt. Easter, an evaluating officer on the scene. " Sometimes you have to be at Q destination at a certain time. You cllnnot afford to get bogged down, You gotta keep on boogyin'," he told the squad. Though not all went perfectly, the ,'AX lanes are designed for cadets to practice and test their leader· ship abilities. And like all training in ROTC. mistakes (Ire allowed so that the}'will not be repeated.

Intelligent, sensitive officers a requirement for the army by Brian DalSelcon

Masl projects editor Hollywood's glamorous portrayals of soldiers in comba� have painted 8 false image of the successful military officer. Such Hollywood heroes liS George C. Scott in "Patton" and John Wayne in "The Green Berets.·· have established a picture in the minds of the public that the best military officer is insensitive, inflexible. and unanlllyticaJ. Dul in reality. modern military of­ ficers are taught that decisiveness, con- ' cern. and sensitivity toone's troops is :""hat will win a war. "If you're nOL scnsilivc. you're not a good looder. An officer's job is towlltch out for his people," said Army Training Commllnder Bryan Cox. a fourth'year ROTC cadet. attcnding St. Martin'S College. Education is paramount to the ROTC program. With such an emphasis, bookwork comes first for the cadets. Two hours in the evening wen! set aside each night at the FTX for homework. And the students do take their homework seriously. I n the quiet of the barracks during study time, the only sound that could be heard was the soft plunking of computer keys on a not·very-portable Epson per­ sonal computer brought by Robert Jory to help him with his accounting homework. Throughout the FTX weekend. the rain fell constantly. A night compass navigation course and an afternoon run on the obstacle or "confidence" course were cancellcd because of dangerous conditions. Though some might be concerned that the army is " going soft, " officers say th·:v life simply working smart. . . 'We arc always safety conscious. I can'( surivive (as an officerl if the troops don't have confidence in me that I will get them through safely." said Colonel Huckabay, lead.:!r of the HOTC pro­ gram at Seattle University.. After a land navigation course was carried out in the rain, officers were sen' sith'e to the health and condition of the cadets. When the cadets returned from running the course. they were �Id to go to a shelter 1.0 gt!t out of the ram. At the Field Training Exercise (F'TX) at North Fort l..ewis last weekend, cadets and instructing officer.q showed II remarkable sense of cooperation lind willingness to help each other out. . "We have a saying in nOTe• He who .. raduates. · The army is cOOperIltL'S. � mOflllike a m(lnagcment thon n dictlltor·

ship." said Andrew Pettit. an M5-4 (fourth·year military science student! "In the military, you must be a unit. There must be teamwork." said Cox. The ITX is designed to give cadets practice their leadership skills by stan· ding before a group and teaching a set of intructions. Cadets waLch and learn from each other. At one field class on tefTain associa· tion. Cadet Joe Blaney, a first sergeant and M8-3, used bad grammar when unswering a question. .. He said, "We got... Tather than, "We .. have... tic was quickly pulled aside and corrected by Captain Gregg Smith, an F'TX observing officer and ROTC in· StruCtor at PLU. " Clean it up," Smith said. "A person doesn't sound like a com· missioned officer if he doesn't use pro­ per grammar. Officers are supposed to be educated. Poor English shows uneducation, or an inability to use it, ,. said Smith. Smith said that 98 percent of all of· ficers in the army have a (our·year degree. He added that 40 percent have master·s. "It is required these days for an of· ficer to have a degree," he said. Emphasis in training is placed on the ability to act quickly and decisiVely. Cadets must also be able to analyze a situation, quickly decide what action is appropriate. and n i itiate it. Cadets de\'elop comunication skills in ROTC by giving instructions to groups as lafj,'C as 120. " If you can't speak effectively lind l,"Cl across what you wont. in any field. you won'tgo very far." said Cox. · ·H.OTC teaches many of the same things that are in the book The Ond/inult' Manger." said Cox. But in the business world. Cox said lin individual will reach the age of 30 or <10 before he reaches a management posi· tion high enough where he can use those tcchniques.

The anny ROTC program at PLU began last year and is work· ing bard to increase its ranks. And as different as the per­ sonalities of the cadets are their reasons for joining the Reserved Officer Training Corp. L inda Gustafson. a four-foot eleven junior majoring in business admil.istration said she joined for the, "leadership training and management experience. I also like the challenge." In her third year in ROTC, her father was a member of the Rangers, the elite U.S. special forces. and fought in Vietnam. Like Linda, many of the cadets come from military families. "I guess you just get used to growing up around the anny Hrestyle," said cadet Robert Jory.

"Our family has been in every war since World War I. My dad was an anny pilot. Did four tours in Vietnam and one in.Kon!a." Jory said he and his family have lived in Germany, Japan, Hawaii, Texas, Taiwan. and Spain. Jory is planning to jOin the special foret's and become a Ranger. if he qualifies, he says. If not. he will jOin the armory divi· sion and wants to drive tanks. "The anny's not for everybody. but it has a lot of great-oppol".! tunities." Jory said. Casandra Gabriel. a sophomore nursing student at PLU, is taking advantage of those opportunities. Mnintaining a 3.76 grade point average, she is on a full army scholarship that pays all her tui· tion expenses. Zelda Jacobs s i in her third year in ROTC. She is majoring in sociology. Before joining ROTC, she wanted to be a social w«ker. She is now majoring in sociology and is planning to become an in· telligence officer. "Most pt.'Ople think the army is all infantry.

Arte Part-time band sustai ns full- time schedule by Susan Eury

Mast slaff reporter

Two lawyers, 8 re5euch ana1yst, a paralegal, and 8 social worker are hardly the types of people one would expect to hear singing together about Hugen Dazs ice cream. But that's exactly what happens when the Right.oous Mothers perform a free concert n i Chris Knutzen Hall Monday night at 7:30. The five-woman group plays a blend of folk. rock and country music. The band has been in great demllnd in the Nor­ thwest since ilS appearance over four years ago at a company talent show. Although the women began playing t.ogether simply 8S 8 " nice outlet from work" , everything changed n i mid·1982 when Lynn Grotsky volunteered to be their manager. " They were different from anyone I had ever heard," said Grotsky. "They ffi.9.de strong political points but used humor to do it.·· The group's acoustic sound is provid­ ed by three guitars. a piano. and a lyriC violin. All members of the band sing. usually around tight harmonies. While performing for groups as diverse as the Seattle Seahawks and vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro, the band uses life-affirming lyrics and humor to sing about subjocts as complex as domestic violence and racism. The main idea illustreted by their music is that women and men can be strong in themselves. The group's goal is "to work for peace and justice throughout th.e world," said Grotsky. But the music is not lost n i the message, judging by the response of au' diences. The band performs for all ages and classes of people and receive warm receptions because its stance is non' threatening. The group's popularity has increased since the reJease of their first album i 1983 on the " Righteous Mothers" n local Nexus record label. The decision facing band members now is whether to devote more time to their music and make sacrifices in other areas. The women may begin to work part·time but the real toU will be on their fsmily life' as the hand begins touring. The group was invited to perform at the National Women's Music Festival in Indiana last year and fowld that their rl!pertoire is large enough now to tour outside the Puget Sound area. This year the band has been invited to play at the Vancouver Folk Festival. The Righteous Mothers' music has grown along with their popularity. They now employ a back·up band for a fuller. more sophisticated sound. The band. featuring Steve Hill on drums. Jon Auer

The new arrangement is part of the Righteous Mothers' new album "Standing Up".

The Righteous Mothers are planning a spring tour of the San Francisco Bay area but they are working toward an even loftier goal The group is trying to arrange an appearance on the nationally broadcast public radio program "A Prairie Home Companion". At the rate they" re going, it may not be too long before the nation gets a sam­ ple of The Righteous Mothers.

Women i n the Arts Wo m e n d a n c e rs p i o n ee r f u t u re sty l e s by Janna Abrahamson Mast slaft reporter The curtcnt tendancy of the post· modernist arts movement is the probing and expression of human emotion. The art of donce is no exct:ption. Thi� contemporary form appealing to the senses rather thun un intellectual conception has be<:'1l influenced by many women pion(.'Crs of dunce. I'I.U dance instructor Karen Scher· wood said the fl!t!! of the movement is very important. "lK'cuuse sometimes . thut is the entire point of donee. · Pro­ blems occur when audiences have a cer· tain notion of what is correct. concrete ideas that have to be spelled out, said Scherwood. "All artists don't pull audiences along,·· she said. When observing. peoplc should have an open attitude. rother than trying to analyze movement.

This impressionism is whAt the first barefoot dance instructor uttempled when she ventured aWAY from classical ballet. Near the beginning of this century. Isadora Duncan ··mude a milestone in the development of contemporary dancc:· Scherwood said. However. her innovations were so unique ut the time. that she was required to go to Ru�sia. the only plar.e where enough funding was uvailable to hcr. Rebellion t.o impressionism in the arts resulted in the present prUClice of ex· pressionism: images which wll stories and display emotion. One early advocate of this form was Martha Graham. who developed special dance techniques. She first began as a classically trained ballet dancer. Scherwood said Graham became very skilled at presenting the darker side of things. Her demands in move­ ment display a great deal of anguish and human dynamics.

From these captivating innovations came other women who bounded into personal aree of n i terest in dance development. Peggy Hackney is a noted Laban movement analyst. who created new styles from the ·'healthy dance t<!Chniques'· taught by the Bill Evans School of Dance, suid Scherwood. Huckney developed un extensive training program in movement, which nnalyzes thc feeling of body and muscle coorrunlltion.

1'wyla Tharp is a New York based choreographer who has often combined various froms of media with dance. to creaW abstract idee relating to her works. Video cameras have been used t.o give different perspectives. and em· phasis on certain body parts. such as the nose or ears. said Scherv.·ood. Not long ngo. Tharp worked on a music video wiT.h the rock IZTOUP TaLkinjZ Heads.

Exhibit features women's images by Shelley Bryan Mast reporter

In conjunction with Women's History Week. the new PLU art gallery in h,· g-ram Hall will preS<lnt a display of work by 23 Northwest women artists. The public is invited to the opening reception with the artists Sunday from 5 t-o 7:30 p.m. in the gallery. The exhibit continues through March 21. Bea Geller, assistant professor of art at PLU. said the show will celebrate women's history through art. Geller said she hns never been discriminated against because she is a women artist but women are often unequally reprE'sented in the field. She pohted out that thc majority of an faculty members at unh'crsities are male and PLU is no exception. There are seven full·time art profeS!!ors at PLU. but only two are women, she said. Geller said discrimination in art may be due to the differing rolcs women and men have had in history. ··Oirferent orientations color onc·s perception of the world.·· she said. A woman. because of dissimilar ex' periences. depicts her art in D diffcrent style than a male artist. Their sen· sitivites are sho..... n in differfnt ways, she explained. The exhibit pieccs range from expres· sionistic to formal. she said. There will also be artists represented who claim no certain style. but rather emphasize ideas. Gallery hours will be 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily.

For women. dance i! a more com' petitive field to enter into. because of the limited amount of openings. Scher· wood said that often. men can enter into dance late. and they o..Iready possess the physical capabilities of strength and en· durance which dance requires. Ac· complished women in dance must com· pete with a large population of fellow colleagues before they arrive at tbnt point. Innovations in dance are oft'!n made by many women. Modern dance :.t the present has a tcndancy to push the limitations of the form. said Scherwood. But new accomplishments are appear· ing rapidly because dance lends itself to enhancement by other types of media.

P L U 's ' Q ueen of the Co u rt'

by Mike Condardo M a st staff reporter The Pacific Lutherao women' s basket·

hall sea�on has drawn to a close. Players have cleared their lockers of shoes. uniforms, and the memories of the 1985·86 season. But one memory will linger on. The Lady Lutes. who finished 1·24 a year ago. rebounded in '86. finishing 1 1 ·15 on the season. A chief contributor to PLU 's success this sellson was 5'10" frosh Kelly Lar· son who led the Lutes in scoring, assists aod steals. In 26 gam es , Larson poured in 406 points. an average of 1 5 . 1 per game and handed out 91 assists. Hllr role as scoring leader is nothing new to Larson. As guard for Puyallup's Rogers High School. Larson averaged 17.5 points per game in her four years with the Rams. and led them to two ap' pearances in the state tournament duro illg her three years there. As a high school senior, Larson was contacted by several colleges including the University of Washington, Universi­ ty of Idaho, Washington Sl..!Ite Universi·

I

ty and St anford U nh'ersi ty .

After I..!Iking a look at P .U . some en· couragemen t by her parents and visits with head coach Mary Ann Kluge. Lar· son decided to give it II go. [t is II deci· sian she has not reb'Tetted. " 1 thought it would be neat to be in II prOb'Tam that was rebuilding; to sl..!lrt fresh in a new program as II freshman'" she said. " I 'm as happy as I can be here I don't know if I could Jxo hflppier anywhere else." Although Larson wus not sought by I'LlJ while she was in high school, there was a flood of othl'r schools that con· tm:wd ht'r. expressing their interest Larson said she sees thuse letter� und conl..llds by colleges us a litt.le disillu· sioning 10 t.he high school alhll'te

Then, with 9 minutes remaining, the roof gave in as Whitman scored a flurry of 10 l'traight points that put up a deficit the Lutes could never overcome.

"The team w«ked hard and deserved to be at the top of the district." Johnson commented. that Karen Fosta' had a tremendous win in the 200 free clipping nine seconds from her 1985 time. Johnson reported that the swimmers have worked hard throughout the wbole season and focused more attention on district and DStionals. "We train hard through themeet season and try to have our best perfonnances at the end." "District (fmals) is to see what you can do, but nationals is the place you want to swim your best." said swimmer Jay Paulson.

'There are bigger and better things to come after district: ·--Swimmer Kerrie But­ cher, a qualifier to the March national 6-8 championship in Spokane.

Indeed, the bi·district meet is past history and all attention is now focused on the national championships in Spokane. " There are bigger and better things to ,. come after district. said Kirsten Olson. " You have to think about your next race. not about how well you performed in the last meet." Kerri Butcher attributes the team's strong finish in the district finals to the unity and closeness among team members. "The team support has helped everybody feel like they are a value to the team." said Butcher. The word " team" is an important asp<'Ct of But· cher's philosphy on competilion.

University to seek 15 percent faculty salary increase C

by arla T. Sayalll Mast slall reporter

I'I.U faculty and staff will receive their employment contracts March 14 with cost-of.living salary increases in· cluded, but they will not be across the board adjustments. The university is abandoning straight pt.'rccnlage increases in favor of a puy. for·pcrfornlllCll e method based on evaluations of individual qualifications. performance, and merit. President William Rieke. in a me:T'C issued Jun. 28 to all employees, s8id the university's goal is to increase faculty .e.nd st.e.ft salaries 15 percent above the cost of living by 1990, PLU's centennial year. Under the merit system, academic department chairs and deans, and non· faculty directors and supervisors were 8sked to rank their employees from highest to lowest based on individual performance and merit. Those deserving merit bonuses will receive raises above the cost of living and all others will receive cost-of,!iving adjustment.!, Rieke 68id at this time I he rankings in· dicate that there are ffiOl"e faculty on the top end of the scale woo received merit bonuses than those who did not. The 1985 cost-of·living figures nation· wide and in the Seattle-Tacoma area were used as the basis for determining aalary increases, Rieke said. Cost of Jiving went up 1.9 percent in SeattJe.Tlltoma last year and 3.5 per· cent nl!.tionwide. "So the nuses would

have to be in that range and anything above that would be considered merit," i · he explained. Overall, salaries should n crease between 2 and 6 percent. Rieke said he fears that e\'en after raising salaries 15 percent in five years, PLU will still not be competitive with other universities nationally. The American Association of Univer· sity Professors has devised a scale which ranks university salaries national· Iy. Level I is the highest, Level IV the lowest. PLU has traditionally hovered around Level III, and at one point slip­ ped to Level IV. Rieke said. By ad· justing salaries, Rieke hopes to catapult PLU into Level II by 1990, "I'm afraid even if we make 15 per­ cent it won't work because other inatitu­ tions will increase salaries at a faster rate, "he said. Two factors contribute to PLU's low suJaries. First, Rieke said, PLU is a " relatively personnel.inttmsive facility," in that there are more faculty per stu· dent here than at many other institutions.

"We have weak lIaiaries and lots of people to pay," he explained. "It's an oversimplification but it'll acxurate. Be­ ing personnel intensive isn't bad until you try to adjust sslaries," Secondly, is the tradition flCtor, he said. "We're coming from behind," which makes it twice as hard to catch· "po Provost Richard Jungkunu aaid the rankings will also include equity ad­ jUstments. indeoendent of mP.ril�

Rather than taking a specific job and paying all employees the same salary, which is what comparable worth adjUsts for, unequitable salaries will be adjusted based on the way a specific job is performed. . Jungkuntz said the university is try­ ing to shy away from referring to the new nlethod as merit pay. "If you are a faculty member and are competent, qualified and deserve to be working at II school like PLU, you are a meritoua per· son. But there are degrees of merit," he ellplained. Regardless of the method used, the university is keeping its commitment to the Five-Year Plan by adjusting com· pensation, Jungkunu said.

This year the faculty and ad­ ministration had a general notion that merit had to be revived but there was no agreement on how to revive It,' - Provost Richard Jungku � tz "Tbe President doesn't want to back off from the commitment and he recognizes that we can't rail to take the first step toward it this year," he said. "Averages have got to be above cost of living this year." The university's ability to pay saluies that reflect cost-of·living increases and employee performance is the key' to at·

The merit system was initially at· tempted n i 1980 and abandoned in 1S82 after it was apparent it was not working. Rieke said. At that time Rieke was responsible for ranking all faculty and non-faculty employees. "Questions were raised concerning who should make the decisions and wOOt the criteria for those decisions wuuld be. " Rieke said. "There was concern about the system'a fairness and how consistent the policy was with PI.U's sense of community." "This year the faculty and administra· tion had a general notion th8t merit had to be revived but there was no agree­ ment on how to revive it." he said. According to Jungkuntz, discussions on the pay,for-perfonnace method were taking place n i December and there were conversations between the President and the Faculty Affairs Committee, which studies and makes policy reccom· mendations on faculty welfare issues. in· cluding salaries, fringe benf!fit.s and retirement plans. Faculty members were considering tbe idea of bonuses. JungkunU said. "I told them let's pick up on it and be more thorough in its application." The biggest change n i the new system ill that President Rieke makes finai ranking decisions for only those people who directly report to him. The rest of the responsibility has been shifted to the vice presidents and those directors. � � �nA?

The Mast, March 7, l\:1:li

Ingram rooftop creates leaky classrooms by Becky Kramer Mast reporter Inngard Miranda has worked under II leaky roof during her seven years as II secreWiry in the Art Department. hous­ ed in Ingram HIlIL "We are so used to it-we just don't tatk IIbout it anymore, " Mirandll said. "We just put out the pots. " The entire building has leaked for 10 years, said Jim Phillips, director of the physical ;1ll1nt, but the leakage is mosl obvious in the remodeled part of the building. Philtips said the university did not ac· cept his recommendation that II sloped roof be put over the remodeled section of Ingram, lit II cost of $100,000. " It was more money than we had availllble," said Perry Hendricks. vice president of finance and operations. In· stead, Phillips obtained permission to put another flat roof over the remodeled area of Ingram during spring break at a cost of!14,200. PhiUips called the roof that Ingram currently has a " high maintenance roof. "' A nllt roof. also called a built up roof system. consists of a roof deck (what you see from the inside). layers of fiberglass insulation. Wlr paper embedd­ ed in hot tar. and a cap sheet. Leaks in the roof are caused by blistering in the cap sheet. improper sealing around vents in the roof. and the extra traffic on thc roof due to the remodeling. Phillips said. The contractor has been out to try and patch up the roof 50 it holds out until spring break. "We can't blame him for everything-the roof was in such bad condition." Phillips said. "They are do­ , ing their best to take care of the leaks. .

" Hopefully in a few years, we will be able to put a sloped roof on the building," Phillips said. "That would be a permanent solution:' Phillips said a sloped roof shedswater better. Water is not as likely to pool on the roof and seep through minute cracks. Dry rot has not damaged the struc­ ture of the building yet, but it eventulIl· If could, Phillips said. Buckets and pails are common sights in the classrooms and offices of Ingram. In the new Communication Arts Depart­ ment. a sheet of pillstic is stllpled to the ceiling to keep the drips off secretllry Joanne EpgeT. Richard Moe, dean of the School of the Arts, traced a stain from the ceiling down the wall where water leaked on1.o a $1,000 print. Fortunately for Moe, a glass frame protected his print from damage. " 1 11m not about to let the leaks ruin my enthusiasm for the newly remodeled School of the Arts,"' Moo said. "But as Dean of the School of Arts, I have II con· cern for drips in the older portion of the building. " We live in hope." said Moe, whose of· fice roof will be redone during spring break, " but the rest of the art depart· ment has lost hope." Dennis Cox teaches print and lithography in leaky class.rooms in the unremodeled section in Ingram. His classroom roofs will not be repaired over spring break. " We push the Wlbles around,"' said Cox. " but the leaks change places every time it rains."' When water drips onto a lithography stencil, it burns a hole in the stencil just as acid would. The whole lithograph and hours of work must be redone. said Cox. "There comes a time when we've had enough drips." Moe said.

Faculty salary increases to remain confidential by Caria T. Savalll Mast staff re;lorter

PLU faculty have turned down a resolution calling for the publication of the names of those faculty receiving higher than average salary increases. Economics department chair Ernest Ankrim introduced the proposal at the Feb. 14 general faculty assembly for two reasons. First, Ankrim said, adoption of the pay·for·performance process happened quic.kly, and although most faculty have a basic idea of who their best colleagues are, publishing the results woukl con' firm them and lend credibility to the en· tire process. Secondly, "Publication would give faculty role models the administration identified as excellent for emulation," he said. Ankrim estimated that 60 percent of the faculty voted against the �roposal.. "It wasn't close but it wasn't like no one voted for it," he said. Ankrim guessed the proposal failed becllUse there "was too much concer-n that revealing ranking8 would cause ten­ sions between colleagues.." he said. Baa­ ed on the comments he heard from other faculty, Ankrim said confidentiality and privacy issues were also concerns. "One of the things 1 didn't do well was separate the listing of faculty na�

'Hopefully If you're running a line Institution, people who are below Iveragfl are very few...' Mary Lou Fenlll, Vice Presi­ dent of Student LIfe

versus revealing results of the final pro­ cess," he said. "Some were thinking my proposal would encourage rankiop, when n i fact it was in response to something that had already been made." Rather thlln publishing the complete faculty list from highest to lowest. Ankrim wanted to reveal only 10·15 per­ cent of the names of those earning higher thsn averab'll raises. Faculty votes appeared to be split bet· ....een . those who did not agree with

publication and those who did but did not know how to implement it adequate­ ly, he said. "To my mind I've never seen a pro­ cedure that s i hurt when information is available to all participants," he said. " Maybe people are hurt tby the informa· tionl if they're not participants." One of Ankrim's criticima of the merit system is that it leaves the faculty feel· ing aa though they have no input in the ranking process. "At the department level we know how well people are doing. It's difficult but we're close enough to this that we can make a pretty good objective rank· ing:' be &aid.

Ankrim said he has "no idea of bow many people took it tthe rankings) seriously. 1 do know that some didn't want to participate n i this," he said. "If I were asked to make a sincere effort, I'd want 1.0 know what the end results were. The school can make a stlltement for types of faculty behavior we should emulate but without the results, it'a hard to do that." President Rieke said that Ankrim's proposal was well intended. "From an economists point of view, it's rationale. However, the university is so complex in terms of personnel, it's not a realisitc idea. The !IOcial costs are too higb,"he said. If the university was composed of faculty who were completely uniform in tbe way they thought and taught, there might be benefits to the publication pro­ posal. be said. "The emulation bit, to me, is secon' dary. We can all learn from good people but that's secondary. I think we're giv­ ing money to those people to recognize their service rather than hold them up for emulation," he said. Religion professor John Petersen, a former Faculty Affairs Committee chair, said that those who do not agree with the merit system in general are worried about political games. "Good guys, good girls are rewarded and you cater to supervisors," he said. On the other hand, "To think of everyone get­ Ling the same salary doesn't seem fair. Some should get rewarded. Quality of course work by faculty overall differs whether you view it subjectively or ob­ jectively. " he said.

"The question is really what is equitllble and what is just. Any system has some built in negatives and that's just the aystem, not people screwing people. The present system that we've followed for quite a few years (straight

percentage increases) has some built in negatives. It'a a case of the rich getting richer, the poor getting poorer," he said. Petersen said he did not agree with Ankrim's propoaai because it was selec· tive and questionable. "We each here as an employee have a confidential rela' tionship with PLU aa an employer about status and salary. Individual faculty have II right to confidentiality as it ap­ plies to salary increa.<Jea because we con't have a unionized shop or bargain.

ing agent." he said. Faculty are more concerned about the merit process in general than non· faculty staff and administrators.. Rieke said. "Faculty tend to be much more process conscience and so they will wonder and debate and think ahout the process quite independent of the results

but that's what makes them so effec­ tive_" he said. The fact that most of the salary n i ­ creases are above the average may be a reflection of the uncm1:a.inty evaluators felt with the new process, said Mary Lou Fenili, vice president for student life_ "It's the fll'st year we',-:e done this and maybe people over compensated_ Hopefully if you're running a fine in­ stitution, people who are below average are very few and hopefully won't be ataying very long," she said. "With the straight across percentage system, you were, in 68gence, rewarding equally those people who were tenibly committed and worked very hard and achieved results with those who weren' t terribly committed o r some who were deadwood," she added. just At this point, the university plans to continue the meritsystem. Rieke said he would welcome an initiative from facul­ ty to sit down and establish specific on guidelines the evaluation process. The question of whether a proposal similar to Ankrim's will surface again neJ:tyear will depend on whether people are satisfied with this year's merit system, Rieke said. If t)-,ere s i a feeling the process was unfair, proposals similar to Ankrim's will surface again, he said.

Rieke said one of the criticisms of the new policy is that there was not enoush time to issue explicit directions and criteria on the actual evaluation process. Faculty evaluations were based on student and departmental evaluations and the Rank and Tenure Guidelines. Those guidelines include: teaching effec­ tiveness,' the exhibition of personal traits such as intellectual n i tegrity, perception and originality, conti nued growth in the field through research and publication. competent participation in committee assignments and non' academic activities. bnd length of ser·

PLU students who receive their meals from the university's food service will no longer be offered "Frank 'n' Stuff' frankfurterl, beef nuggets, or Ihrimp

amy.

Recent changes in menu items, both additions and deletions, are a result of a lUf'Vey distributed to Food Service customers November. The survey, developed by the Student Advisory Conunittee to Food Service (SAC), was designed to measure student satisfa::­ tion with food and service.. '.SAC was asked by Food Servic:e supervisors to collect student opinions. Food Services Director Bob Torrens edited some of the survey questions and added other questions about student satisfaction with this year's new meal plans. But Leona Mason Brown. student supervisor for Food Service and a member of SAC, said the committee did not feel obliged to agree with Torrens' changes and at least one questions that he opposed was included in the survey. Last semester's survey was, in part, a reaction to the survey done during the last school year by the group Quality Preparation in an Edible Context (QPEC), said Food Service supervisor Karen Huber Eshkoftegi. QPEC's survey, she said, included biased ques­ tions and a scale that was not statistically accurate. The chairman of QPEC, Jon Tigges, wrow many of the survey items and did not confer with a statistics expert, Huber·Eshkoftegi nOted. SAC's recent survf>Y was created with the help of PLU psychology Professor Jesse Nolph. No'ph ensured that the

lut

survey questions were non-directional and that the scale was COtTeCt. Of 300 qUestionn&Te8 sent to on' campus Food Service customers, 98 were returned. That 30 percent return rate is enough for a statistically correct survey. Although students were asked to use a scale of 1 to 7 to grade different areas of Food Service the questions were left open ended to encourage written ..... . .... "The oomments aTe the invaluable of the 8Ul"Vey," said Huber Eshkoftegi. Several menu items were added as a result of the survey. During yesterday's breakfast a Western omelette was of· fered for the first time. Egg muffin sand· scheduled to appear as a wiches are breakfast item. The deli bar, which was initiated duro n i g lunches and dinners last semester, is now available during Sunday brunch, as weU. "An overwhelming number of people asked for juice at every meal," said Mason Brown. "but B06 (Torrens' said it wouJd be too apensive." Those students answering the survey indicated that S'lme favorite dishes are chicken divine, philly beefsteak sand· wiches. and hash browns. Huber Eshkoftegi said Fooci Service will try to do surveys on a regular basis, probably once a year. The ASPLU Food Committee ;s currently discussing doing a survey. She added that more input is needed from students and the changes in meal plans and menu items will be an ongoing process.

Grow Up, poster-vandals Is Bella Abzug reatly a communist? Is she actually planning to undermine this patriotic institution's moral value system at tonight's ASPLU lecture by brainwashing the audience with her dangerously liberal rhetoric? Are we to thank a group 01 patriotic vigilantes who have volunteered their time and talents by scrawling the label "Com­ munist" across posters' promoling Abzug's lecture this evening, and destroying dozens more? The Mast thinks not. Abzug Is known for her outspoken feminist views, but it Is ridiculous to believe that students on thi s campus would be so opposed to this former congresswoman's views that they would defile or remove nearly 40 posters bearing her likeness.

According to Bruce Deal, ASPLU lecture committee chair, every poster placed In Ordal Hall had been destroyed, defaced or remov· ed by Wednesday. In Foss Hall, every poster was vandalized within half·hour after going up, As Deal pointed out, the cost of printing the posters was around $200, and was funded by "the students' money." While It Is understandable that not aU students on this campus going to be receptive to a speaker espousing a liberal, feminist view, seems there are better ways to demonstrate an opposing . position than to tear down posters. This poster vandalism Is hardly a well-developed political or It Is more likely the result of thoughtlessness, and esy c and f the an a vandalism to We challenge v r a open grow

Students choose informal worship over traditional religious services by Brian DalBaleon Masl projects editor

The traditional Lutheran seems to be on the way out as modern times bring us more freedom to think, behave, and worship. As shown by II decline in attendance at all formal worship services on cam· pus, students are now opting for alter· nate, more informal ways of expressing their religious beliefs. ·'Students now feel more freedom in the way they can express their religion:· said President William Rieke. PLU held mandatory chapel services three times a week until 1969. The re­ quirement was dropped because of widespread skipping and a radical change in values which ushered in freedom of choice. "Chapel should be an opportunity for those to witness their faith. not somtlthing to run from,·· said Rieke. ·'The authoritarian method ofw<rship is gone. We are now trying to facilitate participation and meet the changing needs of w<rship. The methods for students to express their betiets are now left to their choice," Rieke said. Students still feel as strongly about their religious beliefs as they did when church attendance was higher, but the ways they are choosing to eJ:press them are different.

Bible studies, one-on--one prayer ses· sions, quiet times, and nondenomina·

tional groups such as Intervarsity and Fellowship of Christian Athletes are more infonnal, social fonns of w<rship which students are finding more desirable. ·'Their seems to be a decentralization of worship on campus. Pockets of religious and worship activities are for· ming in all areas,·· said Associate Pastor

Stephen Rieke. Heavier dassloads and increased ac· tivities on campus are also reasons

students are choosing alternate forms of worship. Pastor Rieke said, ··Their are simply more opportunities to be busy and swdents have to pick that worship ser· vice that best fits their schedule.·' One thing that worries President Rieke about the growing desire fnr infor· mul contemporary worship is that pe0ple are not learning the basics of their religion. The freedom of choice movement allows students to study rciigion as they please, but Rieke said he thinks the basics are not learned. "Students now come to school and don't know why they believe what they believe. That makes a per�n 's faith vulnerable," said Rieke. Students must be well·grounded in t heir religious education by junior high, he said. When students reach college­ age and still can't explain his or her religious beliefs, it's too late. "This is a failure of the educational system of the

changed how students worship.

"Families have become more tolerant and less willi.ng to pass judgment on their children. Being tolerant is no good if they don't teach an understanding of theirfaith," said Rieke. So as students come to PLU from families with less stringent religious practices, they bring with them those i vi d t n d i :��: traditional forms of worship.

But as the complexion of religions and Christian denominations changes on campus, there is a decreasing percen· tage of Lutheran students on campus. Because of this, the religious ac­ tivities and services offeNld on campus have and will continue to change with the character of the student body. The increase n i international students in recent years, many of whom are Muslim or Buddhist, requires additional places for non-Christian worship ser· vices, but Rieke said PLU will not offer them use of university facilities. "By Constitution, we are a Christian n i stitution, and we plan to stay that way. There is a difference between say· ing they are welcome to come to our campus and study and saying, 'We al·

Faculty members are looked at in the same light. "Given a choice between an all·Lutheran faculty and one that is diverse, I would choose the latter". They are academically broader and bring a wider perspective to the students,"

Rieke said. A faculty member does not have to be Christian to work at PLU. But when hired, a prospective faculty member is shown the university's Constitution and asked if he or she 'can support, f i not believe in, the university's religious and academic objectives. If yes, no problem. If no, then the in· dividual will have a hard tm i e finding employment at PLU. As times change, SO" will the religious needs of studen18and faculty.

"Quality education in a Christian con· text:· is plastered across the universi· ty's brochures and stationllry. But when discu�sing how religion dusses are taught lit PLU, the subject turns strictly IIcademic. ··The wuy we teach is strictly neutral.

"We are responsible for Leaching peo pie thst there exists a religiOUS aspect in life.

This, she said is critical, especially in a student"s writing. Brown said she grades her papers bas· ed on the validity of the argument presented.

Moslems worship Allah off campus by Laurie Benton Mast reporter

As the sun reaches its meridian. the faithful scurry to their secret sanc· tuaries from various places on campus. It is as if each has heard the horn blowing n i faraway Mecca. the Holy Ci· ty, calling them to prayer. Five times daily Moslem students at PLU meet with Allah in prayer. Their scheduled prayer is just one of many practices that illustrate the "Moslem Way," uprooted in the Middle East and Asia, and transplanted at Western·type citadel of Christianity.

'Qual ity education i n a Christian context?' by Laurie Benton Mast reporter

While the university may project the image of a "Christian coUege", students hold diverse opinions about the label. Students also indicate that the univer· sity's motto, "Quality education in a Christian conted," may be true for one student, but not true for another. Evidence of widespread disagreement among members of the university com· munity about the validity of the mott.o may indicate the school s i experiencing an identity crisis. In�V8r"sity·· staff courisc�or and former PLU student Kelly Pearson said, "Quality education-all the faculty can explain to me-is seeking truth with n i · tegrity. But n i the Christian context­ that's the thing that nobody's been able to explain to me." Employment contracts used to re­ quire instructors to demonstrate they were christians Hut alter droppmg that requirement, the university has ab­ sorbed faculty members with diverse religious persuasions. In the view of some studen(.S, the result has been that PLU's religious orientation has either been blurred or erased alt.ogether. "What's the difference between the philosophy department here and the philosophy department at UPS? No faculty person at PLll is required 10 make a profession of faith in Christ, in· cluding the religion professors," said Pearson. Graduate student Paul Kramer scnses a Christian context at PLU. But he sug· gested it is to be expected that the meaning of a Christian context cor' responds to changing Limes. "I think that's (the validity of the motto) something that may never be en· tirciy settled or defined because the role of religion in our lives and society is con· tinually changing." he said. "Asking the questions and having discussions is really more important than nailing do....n . just what that should mean. specifically, " PearSQn said. Junior Steven McCracken said thOl Christian ima� was what attracted him to PLU, but he was surprised by .....hat he discovered. "1 found many of the faculty to hold \'iews that were far more Hberal Lhan what 1 wa� used to hearing, and because of thut. I sometimes questioned how Christian they were," he said. But he added. "O\'erall, I think that (Pl.U·s motto) it is still an appropriate saying because many of my friends and 1 do like to discuss the Bible and thoology quite often." At least one student suggested it might be the Nlsponisibility of the students t.o create the Christian context. Senior Diana Bankhead "I'm sure it all boils down to how much the students

them9Clves want to take advantage of the Christian opportunities here. I'd say, overall, PLU is a caring bunch, but a caring bunch under a lot of pressure (from beetic schedules)." Dierdre Reardon, a senior, places the responsibility on the faculty as well. "Ideally the administrators of the school may want to see the school taught in a Christian way, but many times that doesn't ftlter down t.o the pro­ fessors. I would say that it may be taught n i a Christian atmosphere, but whether or not it's taught with a Chris· tian rnindset is debatable," Reardon said. Notir.g students are required to receive some religious instruction, senior Sharon Cook said, "I think it would be almost ent.irely m i posible to have all Christian professors." While she said it makes sense that the n i structo�s are not required to be Chris· tians, "they should be able to teach

(religion) objectively enough so they're not slandering the religion." A Guatem&lan student, senior Manolo

Rodas, said he doesn't think the school has a Christian context of any kind.

"Religion s i not emphas� in any of the classes. I don't think it's emphasiz· ed in the rules either. You can come here whether you believe in God or not," Rodas said. Junior Lori Greene indicated the ad· ministration may be fooling itself by upholding the mott.o of education in a Christian context. ng that she i:s not a "hard-core ressi Chiisti a n" herself, Greene said, " I think maybe the school or the administration wants t.o believe that they're teaclling people in a Christian context, but I think the way the students live as a rule s i definitely not Christian." She summed up her view by stating, "I don 't feel overwhelmed by Christiani· ty when 1 come to PLU."

Mast rationale: 'Alcohol ads reflect reality' by LaurIe Bentol)

Mas t reporter

Over the years The MCJ!lt has served as a rallying point for those who hold strong opinions about alcohol consump­ tion at a "Cluistian" university. By publi�hing alcohol·related adver· tisements over the years. the newspaper has indirectly promoted the consump­ tion of alcohol. The editors have often been accused of working against a university policy that prohibits possession or consumption of alcohol in the dorms and regulates off· campus consumption. Staff member Be<:ky Nylander is among those who have protested the paper's pro-alcohol policy, as shown in her letter-to-the-editor. " 1 just felt it was contradictory, because even though a lot of the adver· tisements say 'use with discretion,' it's just that right now PLU has the policy of no drinking on campus, and 1 guess that really struck me as being contradic· tory," she explained. But MCJ!lt Editor David Steves. a senior, said even though the papers position differs with official university policy, it reflects reality. "I think it"s much more consistent with the actual image of the student population at PLU," he said. "I don't feel that the student nev.·spaper is in anyway obligated to serve as a represen' t.ative of the Student Life Office or Cam· pus Ministry." But Nylander countered. "I feel that it's up to the individual. but I (llso feel

that the school. being a respresentative of Cluistian concepts. should stick to the policy of not integrating alcohol with the lunive'l"sityl lifestyle." Advertising Manab'er Mike Condardo said he has noticed another concern. "It's kind of a stereotype that if you have a Lutheran ". school. it's an ethical question whether you are promoting alcohol." "Last year we had several letters to the editor and several personal com· plaints saying that there was kind of a conflict of interests ... on one hllnd. you have this Lutheran school and on the other hand you have ads promoting alcohol," he noted. Matt Taylor. who tOutS as a speaker for MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Drivers) also critici.ud Mast policy in . a letter-to-the editor. Taylor said he objects to the of the n i sensitivity general staff \:.0 the christian community, even though he doesn't object to drinking. Currently there has been a lull n i the controversy surrounding The Mast policy, Steves said, simply because The MalJt ha! not landed contracts for beer advertisements. But Advertising Manager Mike Con· dardo said the resolve of the opposition will be tested soon, because he signed a new beer contract that will take effe<:t this semester.

However, according to faculty advisor Cliff Rowe, the reason the beer adver· tisements ha...e drawn the most opposti· tion is that have been perceived as sexist. Rowe said the decision to publish alcohol advcrtisements has been a mat· tel' of taste, a gray areainjoumalism. " Some people are going to be offended by the content of news and advertis· ing." Rowe noted. "There are a number of values in this country that are always in conflict, and it's up to the media t.o deal with these,"

Rowe said. The staff has the freedom to e.zercise their discretion about n"!attera of taste. said Rowe, and some editor's have chosen not to run alcohol adver· tiaements. But the staff is given guidelines about content in general, par­ ticularily by the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Etbica. "I think the student media on this �pus follow those tguide\inesl tand) take theae responsibilities very 5('rious­ Iy," he said. Sophomore Leuren Paine, however, said that she isn't bothered by the alcohol ads and observed most students do not see m to think drinking conflicts with their Christian convictions.

"The use or possession of alcoholic beverages is prohibited on campus and in the residence halls," is a statement of university policy signed with allegiance by most PLU students, but rarely obeyed. In accordance with the university's religious mission, students are required t.o sign the policy statement in the Residential Life Office's Room and Board Contract before they can live on campus. But it is no surprise thot violations are widespread. Rather than deny drinking on campus, many student.! are outspoken about their justifications for drinking. "By having a n�alcohol policy, IPLU) does not have an atmosphere that teaches students how to make responsi· ble ·decisions about drinking.

"I think it should be a closed door policy. I think I'm mature enough to make my own deciaions," said sophomore Kelly Collins. Despite the student's pr�alcohol at· titudes, Becky Hoffman, a residential hall director in Harst.ad, said that the alcohol policy is impOrtant to help students live together in a community. "If a person breaks policy, he or she is not living in the nonns of that communi· ty. It is a matter of respecting the pe0pleyou are living with," said Hoffman.

Artl G a rden of a rt g row i ng at PLU by Susan Eury Mast staff reporter Many of them have been st.anding in the rain and snow for yeaTS. Most spend their days unnoticed and uneppreciated by PLU students, faculty and staff. But visitors to the university are those who seem to ap­ preciate their beauty the most. They arc the sculptures that have been added to the PLU campus for the past ten years. There are currently five works on display on upper campus and two on lower campus. There are no im­ mediate plans to prepare another sculpture for cam' pus, but a new piece is usually unveiled every two years, said PLU adjunct professor of art Tom Torrens. Torrens has been II sculpture instructor at PLU for the past 11 years and his work n i cludes all but three of the university's exterior displays. Torrens has created the fountain that sits outside of Mortvedt Library, the Rune Stones and the bust of Martin Luther in Eastvold Square, and the sculpture in the Fred Mills Piau near the swimming pool on lower campus. Beginning with the fountain near the administr&tion . building Torrens described the sculptures and theu­ histories. Commissioned in 1982 as a memorial to PLU Library Director John Heussman's son, Torrens knew that the fountain had to be big enough to relate to the open

space of the library plaza. The stainless steel :'I:ulpt� sparkles in the sun and was constructed usmg baSIC principles of design-geometric shapes and straight lines. Torrens said he believes the sound and the natural allure of water attracts people to the fountain. Two student works sit outside the library, as well It was Heussman who initiated the 8Culpture garden that is taking shapeoutside the library, said Torrens. "There is a more intimate feeling to the space direct· ly outside the building that makes the sculptures more inviting due to their human size," said Torrens. The first piece, "Reclining Figure", was unveiled in 1979. The tubular shape reflects an uplifting feeling, said Torrens. Because it is made from bronze, the work is maintenance-free, he added. One of the most recent additions to PLU's art coUec· tion is former student Cam Schoepp's kinetic piece en· titled "What the Parthenon Would Have Looked Like if the Greeks had Ball Bearings". The colored screens of the w()l"k move and were designed w ith the library building n i mind.

"The columns disappear due La : !.<. r r..1tural rusting and the contemporary colors of 1,r'gJt blue and red seem to be left alone."' said Torren.:l. Torrens said most people db nOl con:-n(·nt about the aesthetics of the sculptures, but man.... l."mplain about the cost of acquiring the pieces. But most of the works were donated to the university and PLU's administra' tion is very supportive of campus art, he said. "A college is the place for art because it may make students stop and think: it may challenge them a bit," Torrens said. TOI'Tens' first outdoor sculpture for the university were the Rune Stones he created in Eastvold Square in 1976. The "stones" were made in honor of a visit by the King of Norway and are reminiscent of the Viking monuments. Torrens said he wanted to create a little environment and to simulate the clustered look of most ruins. Many people don't real.ize the Rune Stones spin. Tor· rens said he made them movable to " keep people in· terested" , to catch viewers" attention, and to create a consLantly changing sculpture. The only traditional sculpture on campus is the bust of Martin Luther that Torrens crafted in 1984. Torrens said the figure is a composite of many pictures and paintings of Luther, scaled to be a little bit lara-er than life.

Torrens favorite work his sculpture which sits out. side of PLU's swimming pool on lower campus. He said it represents sport by including images of the Olympic torch and �he winged victory. Other interpretations of the piece ate a bit more concrete, said Torrens. Viewers have described it as a "giant pizza cutter"' and as a "wind generator to heat the pool"'. Providing art for campus is an ongoing process, said Torrens, and there are many more areas that could use a sculpture. He suggests putting a piece in the light well of the middle of the UC and another in front of the Rieke Science Center. Torrens said he believes sculpture is one of the most important forms of artistic expression because unlike painting or writing, it does not deterioralP. rapidly.

PLU band satisfied at jazz fest by Jenn, Abrahamson

Mast staff reporter PerformanCe! at the University of Idaho Jan Festival in MO!K:Ow, Idaho laat weekend were onJy the start of the PLU Jan Ensemble's busy schedule. The band left for the festival on Feb.26 and returned home laat Satur­ day, after attending performances by

many other college and high school groups. professional performers, and giving what band members said were outstanding performances. "It was the most together we've ever played," said bass trombonist Brian Mohr. "We kicked ass," said trumpeter Steve Hagen. "In fact, we were one of the top-mentioned bands." Ensembles from all over the region are allowed' to enter the competition for a critique only, said jan band director Rodger Gard. Other competitive categories include adjudication for com· bos, soloists, and creative composition. Comparing PLU's recent jau festival with Idaho's event, Gard said, "It was kind ofa disappointment. ,.

He said Idaho didn't have the excite­ ment that comes from receiving unique comments and personal attention from the adjudicators, which PLU was able to offer. "So many groups were playing, and it's too crowded (at Idahol," said tnJmpeter Darryl Abrahamson. Although the University of Idaho hosts many groups for its festivaL most are high 5Chool ensembles. Band members said they believe that the pr� fessional performers at PLU's festival related beller to the festival panicipants. One c�tegory of competition that the players hod hoped to win was the combo performance. "Our performance felt great," said bassist Elizabeth Walczyk. Gard said that some "super top-notch groups" appeared in that category. which made it difficult to win. " In ApriL we'lI go on to the Berkeley Festival at the University of Califor­ nia," said Gard, "which is really a tough college competition." "But when we perform, we're not , there tv win. . he added. "just to find out how we can do beuer."

"Technical-wise, it'a one of tbe best pieces I've everwritten," said Walczyk. "The award encourage! Ole to con· tinue composing and it also leta me

With half the turnout of most. of the conference and only a one-man coaching .swH, PLU's men's and women's track squads are definitely looking at quality rather than quantity as their strengths. There are only 33 people in the prl> gram. compared to almost double that number in some oflhe schools that PLU will be competing against. "We have excellent qualit.y this year but not much quantity:' said Cotlch Brad Moore. Moore said that the team is lacking in overall depth. "Most of OUT wiant is in the running events, which have traditionally been the backbone of the program here at PLU," said Moore A primary reason for the small tur­ nout is that track demands a tremen­ dous amount of dedication and commit­ ment. According to Moore, t,-ack is a !port that needs a great deal of training, even in the off·season. "Most of the pe0ple who would be interested n i the field events are committed to the football program, which in itself is very deman· ding." Moore said, Perhapll an even bigger problem than the shortage of track members is the lack of coaches in the program. Although Moore has led PLU track squads to many successful seMons and was named NA1A Coach of the Year by his peers n i 1�85. he knOW3 he cannot do it alone.

"We need a minimum of four to six coaches to do an adequate job with .hese athletes," Moore said. "Most of the run' ners aN! developing and need extra coaching," reported Moore. "They don't come here with a high level of ability. They have to push hard in training and keep their acsdemics up at the same time." Moore has double duty, cosching both the mcn's snd women's squads. This causes him to be concerned about the future. "We lose a lot of people who are not competitive now but could be n i the future," said Moore. "They aren't get· ting enough coaebing and they get di5COuraged," he explained. AII·American senior Karen Bell talks about the problem: "The team. as a whole. is short on coaching, so we arc forced to help ellch other more and even to coach each other," said Bell. "It's created a bond betwoon us which is good hut it can be frustrating. too." Despite these obstacles, this team isn't crying or fooling sorry for itself. The men's team finished scond at the district championships last year and this year they want the championship. They certainly hove the talent to do it. Leading the running events is NAJA AII·American junior Russ Cole. PLU's 800 meter spocinlist. Cole W:.lS 800 lind 1500 meter champion at district. lie went on to place third at NAIA na' lion!!ls l/lst year. Cole does not plan on stopping there. " I plan on \)enting Inst year's times." he said. "I run ngainst the clock. compete against myself. and I"ve alreody set my goals for this yellr." Coach Moore has one of the arca's top jo\'elin specialists. Junior co-captain Craig Stelling hos held the district title in the javelin for two straight years and placed ninth at nationals. Stelling has a lifetime best launch of 216 9.. The 5000 meter race features senior Doug Grider and freshman Allan Giesen. In the first moot of the season, Grider improved his previous time b)! 27 soconds. Giesen ran the sixth best time ever at PLU for that event.

The women tracksters won the district Litle last Mason for the rtrst time in PLU history. AII·Amedcan Karen Bell leads the running events which, like the men 's team, make up most of the talent. She hopes to break the 60 second mark this year in the 400 meter hurdles and is confident that she can do it. Bell's time of 1:01.8 is a PLU record. " I ran a 64.1 in my first meet Saturday, which is my fastest time ever fora first meet," 8ell said. The 4x8oo relay will be strong agtlin this year, with three of fl)ur runners returning from the '85 squad. Junior AII·American Melanie Venekamp returns in the 3000 meter where she is the defending champion. PLU's third solo, AIi·American Carol Wester. would like to improve on a fifth place NAJA finish in the javelin. She holds the school rocord with a 149 5 toss. Coach Moore expects his teams to be successful this year. "We've brotlen off to a late start," he said. "We haven't been to any indoor moots year lind that will hurt us." Moore said that when the senson is over, Pacific Lutheran will be the most improved track team of the conf nc

Women's tennis preview

Lutes seek stolen title

by Jimmy Brazil Mast sports editor The Pacific Lutheran women's tennis team is or: a quest for the conference title this season, a title that was taken away n i 1985 after a five-year hold. Second.year Lute Coach Stacia Marshall has five members back from her 1985 national tournament travel ,quad, plus a standout who sat out last season snd a top newcomer from Oregon. "We're excited about our personnel,"' said Marshsll. "I think we can look forward to anolh<!r good season." Marshall hopes the six senior netters will help her to develop the younger players for future years. The women's team lost their number ttu-ea player to graduation last year, but have n volid replacement in freshman Alise Larson. Larson led Bend High School (Oregon) to two state championships and was part of a state champion· ship doubles duo as a senior. "Lnrson definitely fits into our doublcs plans and will hclp in singles play," Marshall said. Lar�n gives the lady Lutes powerful, developed strokes and a strong men· tal altitude. She is happy to be part of the PLU tennis program and feels that the team attitude is excellent.. " I like the program becau8e they base it on enjoying the game, not just com­ petition," Larson said. The lady Lute netters will be getting ample leadership from seniors Po\lyann Brynestad an'd Tanja Jang. The two are co-captnina this season.

Coach Marsholl noted that they possess a great deal of character and ex' perience. Bot.h players have been nationaltournament qualifiers the pasl ttu-ee seasons. The PLU women's team is known. throughout the district, to have a strong doubles squad and this year's team will play a key role in the team's overall success. said Marshall. Senior Jolene Murphy and senior Chris Dicldnsen teamed up in doubles and recorded a 19·7 mark. They won the NAIA District One title. Marshall said that their styles of play complement each other. "Chris is tall 15·11) and works the net. Marshall said. "Jolene is quick and has a good volley." Senior Carolyn Carlson and Jang had an 18·4 record in 1984. They captured the district title and finished third at the national championship.� that year. The Car!.son.Jang duo will give the lady netters playoff experience in double!" and will be among the top six in singles play. Another player that competed in the Kansas City national tournament a year ago is junior Paula Lindquist.. Lindquist placed third n i 'singles action at the conference match. Strap ttu-oat has sidelined Lindquist so far this spring, but she is slowly on the road to recovery, playing 30 minutes 'a day. Lindquist said that she should be back in acti on after spring break. "I am taking good care of mY8e1f 50 1 can start playing with the team," said Lindquist. The women's team hosts the University of Portland Saturday at noon and Evergreen State next Wednesday at 2:30 p.m.

The women's nordic field W88 dominated by the Midwest region. Twelve out of the fll'St 15 places were captureQ by midwesterners. Brown ill considered throughout the NCSA as a master of the new skating echnique used n i nordic skiing but she was not able to use as much of this technique as she would have liked. "Paula's ideal course s i long. wide open and straight, where she can just stretch out and ,tide," said McCloud. The COUfge tat Killington) only had two straight stcetches."

Brown report..ed that ahe did not seem to have her usuaJ intensity in the Ns· tional Championship race. " I didn't ski aggressive enough which hurt my performance," said Brown. The hilly coune had numerous turns that proved to be a disadvantge to her. Brown. a three-year qualifier to na· tionals, has ended her skiing career at Pacific Lutheran but the memories of a successful season and career will linger on. "At nationals, I reafu.ed how much the PLU team has helped me," Brown said. "By helping to motivate other team members, 1 motivated myself." In the 1966 campaign Brown won two races and took second place on three other occasions. Her season was highlighted by a se­ cond place at the regional champion' ships at WhistJer Mountain, B.C. McCloud said that the Courae at Whistlei' was long, flat and wide open which allowed Brown to skate practical­ ly the entire race. McCloud mentioned that Brown Possesses a love for both sport and pe0ple that is unmatched. "Paula is dedicated to the sport and has a' love for it," said McCloud. "She has a really good team aenge:not only for the PLU ski t� but also other teams n i the NCSA." Brown had some of the most outstan· ding career re!lults this season. McCloud said, adding that she skied as strong as ever in 1986. Brown said that Pacific Lutheran's training program has enabled her to develop both the physical and mental aspects of nordic skiing. "Looking back at my skiing career, I think I'm a more well rounded skiel'." said Brown.

Food Service explores new meal plans

Students to dine with Reagan at nation's capital

by Sus.n Eury Mast staff reporter

by Carla T. Saum, Mast staff reporter, and Krlst l Thorndike, Mast News

Edllor,

Two PLU students will be dining'with President Ronald Reagan tonight in Washington D.C. and meeting with many other lOp government leaders this weekend at a national student sym­ posium 0:1 American security policy. Jennifer Hubbard, ASPLU vice presi· dent. and Lynnette Shaw. ASPLU com­ ptroller, left fOl' the East Coast yester­ day morning and will be returning Sun­ day nig�t. While th'ere�)' wil l b:! !!4'-y­ ing at the Ffya(t Regency ltotef. across the street from Capitol Hill. Hubbard and Shaw are traveling to the nation's capital because they were the only students who responded to the in\'ililtion. not because of their invoh'e­ ment in ASPI.U. Shaw said.

The itinerary include.!! 8 special tour of the White House. luncheon.!!. dinners. and forums. Some of the featured guests scheduled to speak are Attorney General Edwin Moose. Supreme Court Chief Justice Warren Burger. John Whitehead. uepartment secretary' of state. Kenneth Adelman. director of United States anns control and disar­ mament agency. and executives from three of the major television networks. College students. faculty members and adviserl from universities aCTOSS the country were invited to attend the . symposium entitled ' After Gl!neva; CongreM. the Presidency. and National Security Policy," to discuss arms con· trol. media relations. terrorism and foreign policy issues. The Center for the Study of the Presidency. has conducted the conference for the past 11 years. PLU's political science department and President William Ricke received an invitation and student nomination forms in early January. Don Farmer, chair of the political science department. said he thought that the synlposium was worthwhile but that the department .did not have any money for the trip. A copy of the president's invitation was sent to Mary Lou Fenili, vice pti!li· dent for 9tudent life, who then sent it to ASPLU. "We routinely get these invitations each year," Fenili said. "We send them on to ASPI..U and nothing usually hap­ pens. Thia year they thought it would be a valuable thing to do." Shaw ssid. '"Jennifer and 1 were really eIlcited 80 we went through the proper channe19 to get nominated." After meeting with Farmer and Fenili. Hub­ bard and Shaw were told they could at· tend the conference in WashingtOn D.C. if they could find a university office or academic department with enough money to send them. The two of them wrote a proposal listing their qualifications and their nl8.8Ons for l""anling to attend. lind then submitted it to Rieke's office, Shaw said. nue to his sabbatical Rieke was

not on campus during Interim when the proposal came into his office. Rieke's of· fice processed the propoaal, customary policy for special student educational experiences, he said. Rieke said that when students request funds for opportunities like the WashingtOn D.C. trip. he generally agrees to support them if the money is available in his contingency fund which is made up of gift money donated to the university in his name. Rieke said he feels the symposium in Washington D.C. is a valuable oppor­ tunity for the students attending the conference as well for the university. "Anytime the university name ap­ pears through programs auch as this. it increases the visibility of the un iversity nationally," he said. "I feel particularly strong about it !the WashingtOn D.C. conferencel because we !the universityl are so far west." Hubbard said, "Any time PLU can participate in programs with other universities of high caliber not only do the students, but tIM" school. get recognized on a higher level.'" Other" universities wilh students at· tending the symposium are Texas A & M University. University of Southern California, New York's Columbia Univer-sity. Georgetown Univenity of WashingtOn D.C.. Boston College. 'and England's University of Warwick. �haw said that she and Hubbard lire

PLU Food Service customers may find next fall that what they bite will de­ pend on bytes. A computer system to monitor how often a student eats is being proposed. said Food Service Director Bob Torrens. The funds for the system, which will cost between 86.000 anci 812,000, have been budgeted but are not yet approved. Torten$. . said he is oopfident that ' mOney will be appropriated after the system most compatible � with the university's VAX compuler is chosen. The proposed arrangement would in­ clude bar-coded carda. similar to thosc used in library copy machines, that would be read by the comput«. After each use the student's card would have one meal subtracted from it. The new arrangement would include different meal plans, as well. For example. Sludents would be able to choOsc to eDt any meala they wished-within a set number per week. Under the current system students pay for specific mea.ls on specific days... This would ease many of the com' plaints students have with the pre3Cnt Food Service system, said Assistant FoodService Direclor Anne Potasky.

Torrens looks at a la carte

Food Service, from page 1

Most students lire not unhappy with the Ilmount of food IIvailable during meals, but many complain when they must pay for meals they did not eat, said Potasky. Another meal option being considered is thl:! " 11 la corte" pilin ...·here students poy for each item they eat-similar to a cafeteria. Torrens sllid he is not against this plan but thai the problems with its implementation would be extensive. " There an� a lot of students on this campus who don't know what th(' problems ....ith n la carte are." said Torrens. Students ....ould have more choice IIbout how much and .... hen they eat. he said, but they would suffer due to higher meal costs. Those who ....ould benefit would be dieters and tho!'e who eat very little. he said. · · l\.·ly kno....ldege of on a la carte system makes me think the students don't know how lucky they are now," sllid Food Service Super· \'isor Karen Hubcr·Eshkoftegi. "leal prices with the a la carte system would increase by lit leaSt SI per meal, said Torrens No free second helpings would be available. as they are now, and students would have to pay for condiments. Some prices would be difficult to determine, he said. such as how much to charge for deli bar items. Torrens was unsure whether that cost ....ould be based on the number items in·

cluded in the sllndwich oron its weight. Meal COSt9 for those using current meal plans are lower than a 10 carte prices would be because a "built·in vacancy" is figured into the plans' options. said Torrens. Food Service personnel estimate "'hat percentage of students will probllbly not eat meals for which they have alrelldy paid and those savings are passed on to other students. That factor would not be present in an a la carte system. said Torrens. Under a " pay for what you eat" arrange­ ment, students would pay prices similar to those charged in PLU's coffee shop, he said. An a 1/\ carte meal option would also create problems with service logistics, said Torrens. Traffic now into the Commons would have to be changed to accommodate cashiers between the serving lind dining areas. The serving area would have to be enlarged. also. to make room for several cashier stands and the salad bars would hllve to be moved into the serving areas. 'Tm not discounting an a la carte system for the future:' said POlasky, " but I think il woul be a Quantum leap from what we have now. Food Service administrators are currently considering having a trial a la carte day or weekduring the fall semester.

Slowly building turmoil in Haiti camt to a clima.'t last month with the ousting of former president Jelln·Claude DuvaJier. There are still no solutions in sight to the poutical and economic chaos. PLU American dipJomlitic hislory professor Jack Bermingham says weeks later. DuvaJier"s resignation came after a �erie� of riots lind pressure from the military as well as the church and the pt'Ople.

There is presently a great number of Haitians living n i exile.

Elliot Press publishes PLU author's latest book

by Katherine Hedland Mast staff reporter

Distinguished writer·in-residence Lesley Hazelton's book. Ir Shalem: The City of Proce was recently published lit PLU's Elliot Press. IOClltoo behind the Hicke Science Center. Hnzclton, an internationally recogniz· ed writer. spent 13 y�ars in brael und h:ls described thoSt' cxpcrience� in her books. Her articles have also been published in national mngnl.ines in­ cluding the The New York Times MUj.(lUine. Ms, Harper·.�. and Esquire. HOZ('lton's Jat(Ost book is one of man\' project� the Elliott Press has printed. The prCllS is the onJ�' collegiate PrL'5S in the Northwest. �8id Megan Benton. manager of the pres� and parHimc lec· turer in the English department. The Ellioll Press is oamM ..fter J..cs Elliott, a rormer PLV professor who died in Jilnuary. Elliott taught on cam· pus u.nti! 1974. The prells still uses the old·fashione<i system of letterpress prin· ting that was widely u.scd in the newspaper industry before advances in the printing process mode letterpress obsolete. Letterpress printing [nvol\'('5 cretlting raised images of letters n i to metal. coaling the images with ink lind then transfering the impressions onto paper. Benton said that the main function of the press is to serve as a teaching laboratory in which students can learn about printing and publishing. Students in Renton's Lett(lrpress Printing Interim duss seL type for the Hazelton twok and B(lnton designed the cover.

"I encouraged them to be innovative and imaginative. A lot of attention is given to the production and ap' pellt8ncc." she said. Technologically, Benton said the Hazelton book was "a little ambitious' -' Each page of the book had to be set with individual letters wbich can be very tedious, she said. ··Not many people really knnw what we do. 1 think it's a neat pillce. I try LO keep it like a sort of gallery." she sllid. " We have a remarkably nice facility. I deliberately try to make it more thun just a gartlge." The press is cquippt'd to do custom printing work when people want want a cert.oin special look or added touch. Ben· Lon said. The press prints smaller quantities nf fliers and pamphlets for c:lJnpus distribution. and Central Sen'ices. located on lower campus by the Physic(ll Plant. prints calendars. posters. and other information that i� distribuwd campus·wide. " The kind of work we do complements that of Central Service!'.·· she said. Elliott Press can do things in small quantities which .....ould creatc great c,,' penses for Central Services. The Elliott Press has fouT printing presscs and appro"imately 250 cases of type. with 50 to 60 different type faces. which are different styles of lettcring. Most of the equipment has been donated by commercial printers who have modernized their equipment. Den­ ton said. When printers arc forced to Up' date their busincsses, they arc more than happy to giv!:! their old lellerpre�s systems to a place where they will be us· ed and enjoyed. she said.

The press cannot buy their equipment because the university does not provide them with an operating budget. She said they only receive a small endowment to purchase supplie�. like paper and ink. " I 'm proud of the press because it cost so little but we produce so much."

'Sto len' computers found by KatherIne Hedland

Mast stall reporter

Computer equipment worth 513.000. reported stolen from the Center for Executive Development. was disco\'ered Friday. hidden in the basement of Enst Ctlmpus. said Brad McLane. assist.ont director of Campus Safety. McLane said a custodian found the computers in some cabinets in the basement. but did not realize that it was the stolen equipment until later. The discovery was reported to Cam· pus Safety on Monday afternoon. Soon aftcr, officcrs from Campus Saff' ty and the Picrco County Sheriff's department arrived at East Campus and investigated the scene. McLane said all of the equipment was recovered except for a box of computer disks. Campus Safety Director Bon Garrett said the officeu from the Sheriffs De]>llrtment took fingerprints from the computers. "They were able to lift some excellent prints off the equipment." he said.

Garrett and McI.nnc said that the burglars w�re probably still in the building when police showed up on the night of the burglary nnd did not have time to get the equipment out. Garrett said that on Friday evening. two men in a swtion wagon backed up to the' southwest door of the building and asked to use the bathroom. Becau� they pulled up to the samt' door in which the burglar alarm had been disconnected. they believe these could have been the burglars coming back to retrieve the equipment. Garrett said the custodian who let them in watched them carefully and said he could identify them if necessary. He did not get their license plate number. Georgia Papccek, secretary for the of· fice. said. "We're very glad to hnve (the equipment) back. We were surprised . especially where it was." Papccek said that most of the equip· ment was still working. One computer was not working correctly. but it is in the proccss of being repaired. .

The peer alcohol counseling program is " a way to reach �tudenu with alcohol problems who are afraid to go to the Health Center. bUl prefer to discuss it with a peer." Di/:e said. "The annual health fair is the best way to inform the campus about health issues and what the Health Center has to offer." said committee member Michael Adams, who represents the off· campus and adult students. " There is a confusion about health carf! for off-campus. married students. and �heir dependents." Adams said. " so we provide infornlation about the Health Center and insurance in the Adult Student Resource Center." " 1 think there are a lot of people with health problems who don't use the Health Center." Kindred said. "I asked to bean the committee because I wanted LO promote awareness and give the Health Cenlcr some input about wlult the students' health concerns are."' she said. Adams said Coffey :l.nd W3gonfeld are making an effort to reach out to the �tu· dent body. '·The Health Center is listen· ing to the suggestions of the commiu('C and t{'(Icting immediately."

Mental olympians flex their brain-muscles by Sonja Ostrom Mast reporter

PLU hosted its version of the Olym· pies last Saturday, but the 350 par· ticipants flexed their minds instead of their muscles in the regional "Olympics of the Mind" competition. The purpose of th.c competition was to encourage kindergarten ttu-ough high school students to excercise creative problem solving and team work, said Chris Jones. director of the Washington State Olympics of the Mind program. The students filled the UC with their­ make-up, musical instruments alld handmade props and costumes. They were judged on their creativity, imagina­ tion, ingenuity, and n i telligence that they displayed in tht:ir problem solving, she said. The students are judged on lhe creativity, imagination, ingenuity, and intelligence displayed in their problem· solving efforts, she said. "There are two types of problems the students are required to solve," Jones said. "The first is long term problem solving in which the students are to creatively work on a problem for months before they get here." "For spontaneous problem solving, students practice brainstorming as a team before they get here. so they can work together on given problem before the judges," she cxplained. The atmosphere in the UC was chaotic with students rushing from one event to another and parents following close behind, clutching props and other hand· made projects the students had prepared for the competition. Workers at the t-shirt and information stand were busy giving directions and answer­ ing questions between events. One of the projects the students were asked to complete was to design and build a pair of structures to support a specified amount of weight within eight

millutes, using strips of balsa wood and glue, she said. Another probfem had the student.s moving pieces around a square grid on the floor of the CK while a computer in­ structed them where to move the pieces. The computer program was one that they developed themselves before the competition as part of the requirements for a long term problem, Jones said. Outside the Regency Room, a team of young girls were doing last-minute preparations for their live interpretatid'n of an historical event for the "Hhltory The Way It Was" category. Two held a background mural painted on butcher paper while one played the flute and another recited a famous speech. Other categories required students to paint or sculpt replicas of art masters, and to design, develop, and masi'! pro­ duce a creative product as a team. Dur­ ing the mass production excercise, the kids were told to produce 10 identical items, package them, and place them on a shipping dock within 10 minutes, she said. This is the serond year for Washington state's " Olympics of the Mind" program , according to Jones, but the national program has been operating for seven years. Jones said the first and second place winners of the regional competition will · go to the state competition, and the first and second place winners of the state competition will go to a world competition.

DOMINO'S PIZZA DELIVERS™ ON TIME

Richard

Moe, dean of the School of Arts, said PLU was asked to provide facilities for the contest because the "Olympics of the Mind" people wanted a place to have the competition that would be conducive to nurturing creativity, he said. "Jones requested use of our facilities be:cause she knows PLU is interested in supporting creative efforts among high school students and , gifted schoiars," .� Mocsaid.

Evanson qualifies fordebate nationals, bOund for Dallas by B.cky Kram.r Mast reporter "Debate is more e<iucational than competetive," said Tim Evanson, a na· tional debate qualifier. He paused. then laughed. "It's verycompetetive, but that's not why it e:ti.sts. Students debate to learn." Evanson is the first debatot from i PLU who has qualified to attend the Na· tional Individual Events Tournament

{NIET), held n i Dallas, TeXas, April S·7. He placed fourth in informative speak· ing and third in impromptu speaking at the NIET qualifying tournament last weele.end at Western Oregon State Col· lege. The top ten percent of all finalists go on to nationals. Evanson says he feels honored to have chosen to compete at nationals from the Pacific Northwest, an area that hIlS traditionally had a very strong field according to his debat.e coach, Mike

been

Bartantm. Impromptu speaking is Evanson·s favorite area of competition. "It teaches you how to think on your feet. ·· Evanson said. In impromptu speaking. the judge hands the debater a list of three quota· tiolU. The debater has two minutes to chose a quotation and plan a speech. Evanson said he chases the e&.9iest topic, but not the one 20 other debaters have already chaseD. When the two minutes are up. the debater gives a five minute speech. "It's got the pressure on you to really perform," Evanson said. "I like the pressure. When the heat's on. you got to come out with some deep philosophical stuff.'· Evanson has on a debate .team

been

for SlI. years- since he was a sophomore in high school. He said debate has taught how to research. and re­ quired him to keep up with current events. "Debate keeps you informed about everything, "' Evanson said. "We about war, economic growth. star said wars- everything." Evanson being forced to debate both sides of an issue creates open·mindedness. But being a good debater means a lot of work. "You have to love debate' -· Evanson said. Debate requires 20·30 hours of Evanson time, September through April. "It's like two football seasons back to back.·' Bartanen agrees that debate is hard work. "The rewaro.s of debate are internal- not external glory around ,. campus, Bartanen said.

"On the other hand. she is assured that her name, unlike that of all other crime victims. will be kept out of the paper, so that no one will know of her degredation.

The Mast. March 14, 1986

Keep it up, Bob PLU's Food Service has taken major strides In the right direction this year with a number of additions to its !'lelection and service The proposal to switch to a radically new meal plan next year (see related story, page 1) is another promising move toward providing students with a quality on-campus meal service. For years. students have had two major beefs concerning PLU's Food Service: bad food and too much of it. Food Service has added a greater variety t o the menu, Including a deli bar, bagels. occasional omelettes. and an i mproved salad bar. Food Service has also shown much more sensitivity this year to the requests and suggestions of Its customers. One comptalnt lhat still remains Is that despite the addition of a variety of new meal plans. students must commit themselves to eating a set number of meals 'On campus and usually feel obligated to get their money's morth=--- whether they're hungry or not. Food Service has expanded Its serving times. allowing students more freedom to set their own gating schedules. Still the problem exists that binds students to eat lunch on campus at lunch-time and dinner on campus at dl nner·time. Students who miss a meal because they go off·campus to eat, or simply aren't hungry, are sacrificing a meal for which they've already paid. In the past. Food Service has refused to diSCUSS alternative "get what you pay for" formats. because it would cost much more to im· plement such a plan. Now. however. it appears a more equitable meal plan is being explored in which students are allotted a set number of meals per semester, and they may use up thal allottment at their ol/:n chOOSing. This would permit siudents t o a!low for the probability that they will miss a certain number of meals per semesler. and purchase a meal plan accordingly. Hopefully. the un iversity will give the go-ahead for this new for· mat. helping Food Service to continue to recognize student needs and provide an im proved, more flexible on-campus meal service. -David Steves

We goofed In last week's Mast article 'Drinking should be our choice,' the reponer mistakenly attributed Becky Hoffman's name to the quo�e, "I think you should lei your committment to Christ detennlne if YOJl should drink or not. If you are realty committed, then you will hao,;e no problem deciding." The Mast sincerely apologizes for the ener. Although last week It was reported that UPS-PlU Stars Night was scheduled for March 13, il is actually to take place March 19.

loday's college students must face bitter reality by D.rryl Brown

syndicated column While reserching her thoughtful new book lin college students in the 1980s, Susan Littwin talked to a young woman who had recently graduated from college. "I always thought I'd grow up, go to college, graduate and make money," she said. "But it's not working out that way, and I'm scared." She is most frustrated at her low income. but Litt· win is more interested in her reluctance to grow up. She finds an alarming number of young graduates doing the same, and she calls them- and her book- "The Postponed Generation." Littwin t.akes a keen look at college students who were born in the affluent 1960s, under parental attitudes she paraphrases this way: ''If we never told them that life could be tough, it was because we had forgotten it oucselves...For our own chi l dren, ijfe would be rich and rewarding. We en· couraged them to express themselves and fulfill themseJv�s, believing that somehow. sheer abundance would sup-

port them." As a result, their children grew up with much promised to them but little asked in return. They acquired a sense of entitlement and assumed that mean· ingful careers were guaranteeed, that life would be full of options, that they had a right to happiness. "No youth." wrote Newaweek magazille, "not in an· cient Greece. enlightened Europe. nor modern America, has ever grown up under so 1!trong a sun...Never have so many chih:i'ren been such complete strangers to famine, plague, wont or war. theirs are the bleSsings of prosperi· ty, theirs the spoils of peace." Unfortunately, history gI,Ive them a . cold shower. About the time of the 1973 oil embargo. things started down hill. Scarcity was back, inflation soured. job pro�pects plummeted. The generation that came of age n i the 1980s, when there are twice as many oollege graduates as college-level jobs, felt disillusioned if not cheated, so they avoided real life by postponing it. They stay in college longer, avoid com· mitments, live off (and with) their parents I�nger.

Misquoted hall director feels 'grossly misrepresented' Tothe Editor: I am requesting a formal apology from The Ma.st and Mr. Brian DalBaloon for the violation of my rights, opinions, and theology. In the March 7 MlUt article entitled "Drinking should be our choice," Mr. DaiBalcon. MlUt projects editor, quoted me as making two ,'Itatements I never made. In misrepresenting me, Mr. DalBaicon showed unethical and irresponsible reporting. As a reporter, Mr. DalBalcon has a rC5ponsibility to his readeTs to report issues and concerns as honestly as possible. We are a trusting audience-he has violated that trust.

Unfortunately, Mr. DalBaicon did not simply "misquote" me, rath.., he gross· ly misrepresented my position. In our brief conversation, witnessed: by two students, Mr. DalBalcon asked my opi· nion about policies on PLU's campus. I told him I believed policies n i geneTal were necessary to help us live in com· munity and respect those we live with. He has quoted me as saying, "I think you should let your commitment to Christ determine if you drink or not. If you are really committed, then you will have no problem deciding." I am at a loss for where he received this quote. . The issues of alcohol, drinking. and oom· mitment to Christ never entered our

James was thinking the same way: Set up a "moral equivalent of war" such 8S public service that instills the proper in· tincts in young citizens. The United States never has.

Adapting to academe a struggle for some by Brian DslBalcon Mast projects editor After being out of school for II years, Iton Trapp·s aging body told him that working in the trades is II young man's game, As a journeymlln electrician. he always wanted to do .!IOmething creative and constnJcti,'e. He doeided to go back to school and get a Master's degree in sociul science. Planning to finish his coursework at PLU this spring, he hopes to land a job in labor·management relations. For many older students. those 25 years of llge or older, the decision to return to school is one filled with ap' prehension snd doubt in one's ability to adapt tothe " new·' disciplines. After spending so many years outside of II classroom, Trapp said he found his study habits and ability to write research papers a bit rusty.

Some older students said they feel in' timidated by the y.ounger, more "energetic" studenu who, they say, are more used to studying. "You sit there with your gray hair and everyone is bright-eyed and not tired. like you," 58id Delores Davis, II social work major. "It seems like they all know each other and you don 't know anyone. But I have found that the younger students are so friendly and they reaUy make you feel a part of things." said Davis. When older students decide to go back to school, they IIgrOO to make sacrifices for an education they hope will pay off in the long run. When Ron Trapp puts his kids to bed, he pulls out his tCJ(t books. When his family g� skiing, he sits in the lodgt' lind studies. Ilis social life is restricted, too. " There lire times when I would love to be over at a friend·s house on the weekend, but I huveto study,'· Trapp said, Around Dc!orelj Mullen·s household. studying has become a family project.

Several of tho older students inter· viewed said there was a certain amount of guilt they felt after deciding to come back to school at PLU, '" felt guilty spending that sort of money on myself that could be going for the health and welfllr(! of my kids:' !IBid Trapp. "I felt very selhsh about coming back to school.

Because they have been out in the "real world," the mix of older and younger students ..::an benefit both groups. "They bl'ins a good share of their ex' perience with them to class. It s i • springboard for discussion. The eJ:. penances of the adult students aUow us to deal w it h . more reaJ situation." .said education profcssor Carrol.Debower. He deSCTibed some students studying' . educational admin istration who have bOOn n i the military. "They know what will work and what will not. They are using their experience to enhance their education. More Jearn­ ing takes place with the experiences they bring in." Debower said. "They have a broader perspective at an older age and can better relate to what I am teaching:' said Jim Wahlen, assistant professor of business administration. While· adult students are serious about learning, the teaching methods of most college classes they must sit through are geared more for younger . students. "There s i a problem that t.oo many people think thst college students cut! just bigger high school studentll, not adult learners," said·Debower. He added that many college pro­ fessors use basically the same t.e8Ctung methods as jUnior high teachers, even though the ages of students are radical­ I� different. As more older students take college courses. IIJSS traditional teaching methods may have to be implemented which would better geared for older students.

Debower said thut profcssors ' should give students more freedom in their assignments. allowing them to write on something they think · will be most. beneficial. "There should be the opportunity to

go in many directions. This would be more of a challenge to the students and

said Debower.

Adult Resource Center smooths student paths at PLU The Adult Resource Center was developed to provide assist.ance for older students on campus who often need university service.s. but don't know how to go about get· t.ingthem. For example. if a student needs to find something in the library or wonders how w register for classes. he or she can go to the ARC for informstion and assist.ance. The ARC. locsted downstairs in the University Center. is a place. "where older students can hang their hats. It is a place for them to network among themselves and support each other." said Cristina del R058rio. director of the ARC. In the ARC office, there is a message center where students can leave their schedules so they can he located and conlacted in crnergenci�s. The ARC also gives nl0nthly workshops for older students on preparing for \'lIrious caCt.'I8rs. Counselors in the ARC �'II\"e establishro an informal one-t�ne relationship with older students to help smooth their udjustmenl to college life. Thcre are also nlllny reference materials for cun.'('r lind educa· tional guidllnce.

ESl..llblished in the fall of 1984. the ARC is a strong indication of the university·s committmenl to the older student, said del Rosario. In the spring of 1985, it was placed under the responsibility of the Student Life Office. which has given it a more clear direction lind purpost'. Last fall. the ARC was moved from the Knorr house basement to its presently much more visible location in the University Center. "Thllt made a lot of difference. The adult students responded im· mediately," sai d del Rosario.

The ARC now serves an average of 30 students a week. Out del Rosario added that it would be e\·en more it the facility were bi/o:ger.

Review: There's no place like Home hy Emily Morgan Ma::t slaft repOrler The mournful southern blues open· ing of the Tacoma Actors Guild'pro­ duction of Smnm·Art William's "Home" sends s young man sear­ ching for happiness that was never faraway. Cephus Miles. a block man in the 195.05. inherits the family farm in North Carolina where he contentedly works as a "cbild of the land." His happinClls is short·lived. however, as fate takes his farm. his sweetheart, and his youth. Having flO olher place to go. the big city lures Miles into its faSl. free. and easy lifestyle whi l e taking advantage of hill naivete. Finally he returns to the refuge of his cOllntry home along with the promise of a new lire. Director Rita Giomi's simple treat· ment of "Home" greatly enhances a story lhat ' might have seemed pedeslritm·like had there been literal scenery or costumes. Instead, 'sug· gestions of settings and poople allow the audience to add their own im' ab'ery and interpretation whi l e focus· ing on the chuTilclers and story line. Miles' confusion about which path lO take in life is clearly seen in Richard J. Harris' abstract sel desib"Tl.

12 The Mast, March 14, 1986

PLU cast elaborates on 'boy meets girl' story Review by Sunn Eury Masl staff reporter There are six deu.ths (three of them are murders). Throw in .several fight scenes. some racycomment.s, and what have·you got? The latest prime time television series? No. As a malter of fact this script is over 300 years old. But the PLU Theatre Department's new production of William Shakespeare's RomfO and Juliet has the energy required to bring the story to life in 1986. Many people consider this play to be romance-boy meets girl, boy marries girl. boy and girl commit suicide. Although love abounds between Romeo and Juliet there s i a greater abundance of hatred, stubborn pride, and divided loyalty in this production than is expected. With some help from a creative .set designer, several sworo play experts. and a director with fresh ideas, the PLU cast is able to bring out these often neglected themes. The story foUows the family feud between the Capulets and the Montagues and the complications which arise when Romeo of the House of Montague falls n i love with and marries Juliet daughter of Lord . Capulet. The production is set on a bloodied looking sts.ge with collages dripping from the backdrop. Designer Anne Th8J:ter Watson sets the mood for what will be a lesson that the play's characters willieam only after it is too late. The omy major problem with the staging of Romro afld Juliet is tlutt Eastvold Auditorium's facilities con' strict the scope of what could be a majestic production. . The audience must be seated on stage, which means that during the most crowded scenes 30 cast members must share space with over 60 theat:re-goers. Although the cast and director Willia.m Becvar have worked to compensate for these cramped quarters. it is a shame that dueling nobles are unable to move more than three feet in either direction. Adventurous au· dience members may choose to sit in the front row and literaUy become part of the action-dodging . loose sabers and daggers. Many of the smaller roles in the play are performed by nOD'theatre majors in their acting debuts. Most manage to remain in character and several seem to grow more rl8Jr.ed with their parts as the play pro gresses. Party and street scenes could use a little mON! ambience, subdued conversation and interaction. By the middle of Act 1 it is obvious which players are most comfortable with Shakespearean dialect and vocal rhythm. John Gange, as Mercutio. seem s to have been born in Stratford'iln-Avon judging by his enun­ ciation and inflection. Michael Robinson, who plays Benvolio. and Roger Shandelt, as Tybolt. as weU as Gange. all deserve credit for creating three characters with similar btickgrounds who all have distinct personalities.. From Tybolt's fiery pride to Mercutio's cynicism, each character is uniquely fashioned.

These two establish a more believable relationship tlutn any other pair in the play. Anna Lauris, as Juliet, and Michael Heelan, who plays Romeo, perfet."l the teenage romance with all of iUl melodrama and heartache (whether real or imagin­ edl. But the two also aIMW the.ir characters � grow by restrairung the sell:timental nature of their relationship until the proper time. Romeo and Juliet are portrayed as young. implusive. and dreamy-not unlike t.oday's teenagers. Mimi Squires' portrayal of Juliet'a nurse is full­ bodied. She is not a mere servant, but a woman who uses her mind to help her mistress. There is no ques­ tion tlutt Juliet would be lost without her. These overlooked elements of the nurse's per.sonality are brought out by Becvar and emphasized by Squires. The baudy nature of Shakespeare s i not lost OD this cast and crew. The dialogue in never diluted: it is ac­ centuated by physical asides that play on the trapp­ ings of the day-sheathed sworde and Elizabethan slang. Becvar has directed his players to take advan· tage of every nuance. Th.is also helps the average theatre-goer to understand the double entendre of the 16th century.

The fighting sequences are staged appropriately so u not to disrupt the natural flow of a scene, but to add to it. The aword players have learned well from their professional coaches, fight choreographer Tony Soaper and usistant fight choreographers Craig English and David Harum. Oyer-all, this prodUction of Romro and JuUet works weU despite the sometiliie9� Crowded stage ana 'iri'ex: perience of those in the amaller roles. But those looking for a tale of love and beauty are mMe apt to find a play with action, intrigue, and a lesson. But that is most probably what Shakespeare n i tended..

Sword play and sets enl iven Roineo and Juliet by Susan Eury Mast stall reporter

PLU·s new production of Romf'O and Jvlif't is more than an opportunity to act. For many of the students involved in the plu.y it is a chance to learn new theatre techniques and to work with some professional actors behind·the­ scenes. "We tried to create a production that would encourage students to reach and try new things," said Anne Thaxter Watson. scenic and lighting designer for the play. Watson is a freelance designer from Seattle who ans.....ered director William Becvar·s call for help when the position of PLU scenic designer became uvailable. She hIlS worked extensively on other Shakespeare prodUctions. most notably at �ummer Shakespeare festivals in Utah u.nd Colorado. Watson said the !lCt for Romeo ofld Juliet was designed to maximize its utility. "We wanted a space or a set of spaces that could be used as anything-not just a bedroom. for example." she said. The design includes a series of stairs and platlorms that alternately become Juliet's bedroom. the Capulet family

crypt. and the streets of Verona, Italy. Rich C()ral colors were chosen for the sets to express the hot and dry Verona days. Watson said the textured hanginEr-!, used as a partial backdrop, are meant 1..0 symbolize the deterioration of the rela· tionship between the Capuleu and the Montagues. After aU, said Watson, the story i8 a tragtldy, nnt strictly a romance. Period costumes were borrowed from several Seattle area theatre companies and swords were purchased for the fight scenes at a cost of about 5700. Watson said the students were very willing to learn and most had .positive attitudes about the work required to stage a Shakespearean play. Student.s were required to learn special forms of diction. metered speaking, and period movement. Eight actors in the play .....ere taught the art of sword play. Three professional fight choreographers worked with the men every day dUring the last week of January to perfect the players' techni· que and to ensure their safety.

Fight choreographer Tony Soaper and assistant fight choreographers Craig English and David Harum are all cer­ tified to teach and plan stage fights. in·

cluding sword play. Those involved with the action scenes learned that sword play requires 40 hours of practice for every minute on stage. "It's just like dancing with 2O-inch pieces of steel," said John Gange, who' plays Mercutio. Gange said the swords are not blunted and could be considered to be deadly weapons. In fact, during one practice, Gange said, he accidentally cut fellow actor' Paul Taylor's hand. Mike Robinson, who portrays Ben· volio, said the sword play requires a lot of concentration. "There's no way to stop our fight if we trip or fall and we lutve to be careful to not lose our grip or let the sword fly nway," said Robinson. Once the adrenaline of the perfor­ mance begins to flow. said Gange. it could be difficult to maintain the restrainl necess:lrY to be safe. That is why every move is planned. dillgrarnrn· ed, and practiced, he said. The swocd play partners had to learn to trust one another. The fight choreographers noticed the :ack of trust on the first day of practice and they worked to build the men'iII confidence. The actors began b) performing the

duels very slowly, building up to a speed faster than that of the actual performance. Jack Greenman, who plays Paris, said after leaming the fight choreography the actors also had to learn how to maneuver around the set in their costumes.

Sometimes the action became frighteningly real, said Greenman. "One of the fight chortJOgraphers was showing me how to stay in character during the sword play and when be lung· ed at me the 1000k n i his eyes made me believe tlutt this man was really going to kill me," he said. Gange said it was difficult in the beginning to concentrate on maintain· ing his role while thinking about the fight, but now he thinks it helps. "We must understand our characters to know how they would fight,·· he said. The octors now know how much behind·the-scenes work must go into a Shakespearean production and their goal is to make the resulting perfor­ mance look effortless. It is to their credit that most of those in the audience will probably never know th� time and energy that has gone into the play that they see.

The meet went down to the wire but the Vikings finally prevail­ tnishing third, one place ahead of ed, f the Lutes, in the 4X4OO relay finale. Coach Brad Moore was pleased with his team's performance: "Western has a very good tesm with outustanding depth," Moore said. "We showed our t.eamquality, only losing to them by two points." PLU had the most victories, 1 1 . but WWU was able to place three or four people i n many events. compared to the Lutes who could only go one or two deep. The Pacific Lutheran tracksters broke four Salzman Melay records, three by women, in a meet that featured mcst of the NAIA District I schools. As expectoo, the Lutes turned in a number of great individual perfor­ mllnC1lS which helped the lrackslers to their second plaC1l rinish. Russ Cole recorded three excellent in· dividual times in the relay events, runn· i the men's len ing a swift 4:14 anchor mi distance medley, a 1:54 anchor in the 4X800 relay and the final leg of the 4X400 relay in 50.5. seconds.

As the cold of winter dwindles and the sweet smell of flowers fill the air, it is IIpparent that spring has finally ·sprung. Soon many will begin such annual spring rituals as going for picnics, playing tennis. or. for some. coaching a youth soccer team. BUl the Pacific Lutheran rowing club has a vastly different agenda set for the 1986 spring season. Each oarsman's day begins with an enerboized rowing workout. at 5:30 a.m. on American Lake. located ten miles south of PLU. Next. man\' of the crew members find t.ime bet;"'ecn their classes to get in a workout with the weights to in­ crease strength and prevent muscle . stiffness. The afternoon is occupied with another gruelling. on·the-water workout which concludes the daily training routine of a PLU rower. Rowing is a unique sport that putS nn abundance of strain on the car­ diovascular system without stressing bones or joints to any significant degree. Rowing requires the use of mOSt major · muscle groups and demands tremendous flexibility and technique. The perfect oarsman stands slight· l�' over six feet tall and weighs around 190 pounds. Because of the sport's demand on major muscle groups. the rower is a lean. well· proportioned and a surprisingly powerflll athlete. Stress'related injuries that seem to hamper many athletes in other sports are kept to a minimum in crew becliUse the rower competes n i a sit· ling position. Rowing is known as the ultimate sport for physiological benefits. Row­ ing requires th� body to pump more lood and consume more oxygen than any other aerobic sport. The sport rowing llisa causes the body to bum up and ncredible i amount of calories. Swimmi ng, considered by some to be the King of aerobic sports, even bums up fewer calories. Numerous athletes have tumed to rowing or ergomeLerS !rowing machines that are used indoors) because of previous injuries suffered in other spotts. Although rowing is unmatched concerning aerobic benefits. physical exertion and caloric expenditure. it is a distant follower to most other sports in popularity. The United States Rowing Associa· tion !USRA) estimates that 27,000 people competitively or recreational· Iy row an a regular basis. This ex' emplifies the fact that rowing is just beginning to crack it's shell. One reaso!} for the America's small

Competitive rowing involves a " sweeping" motion, with each crew member rowing with a 12-foot oar. Commonly. the e"en-numbered seats row an the left or the "poft" side while the odd·numbered seats row on the right or the " starboard" side.

puts rowing Because tremendous demand on most of the major muscle groups, the rower is a lean, well1l'oportioned and sur­ prisingly powerful athlete. Every crew has a "coxswain" who acts as a strategist and steers the shell by way of an eJectronic microphone. The coxswain is responsible for measuring the "stroke rate" (the number of strokes the oarsmen take each minutel.The stroke rate can be as high as 40 strokes per minut in high·level competition. The most technically efficient rower on the team, the " stroke," sits in the stern of the boat and is respon­ sible for setting II rhythm for the The basic rowing motion, according to Pllcific Lutheran's senior captain or " commodore" Jeff Glenn, starts with the rower reaching forward for the "catch" Ithe instant when oar meets water). The oarsmen then pulls through with a leg drive and " feathers" the blade horizontally to avoid wind resistance. The motion is concluded with the rowcr engaging in a quick "release" motion with hands and anns. There is nothing more peaceful than viewing a crew of four or eight concentrated individuals pooling their efforts together in an effort to streamline across a smooth as glass lake as quickly as possible. PLU Freshman rower Eric Hanson says that rowing "makes you feel as if you are gliding across the war.er." "The feeling of team unity and thrill you get while rowing overshadows' the pain." Hanson said.

Wolfe 'gives it his best shot' at national wrestling meet by Carol Zitzewitz Mast reporter

Cold and windy Minot, North Dakota, was the site for the NAIA National Wrestling Tournament held March 6-8. . PLU sent. Chris Wolfe, Phil Anthony, and Keith Eager to battle the 15 below zero weather and opponents that were all too tough. Senior Chris Wolfe was the only grap­ pler to palce us PLU finished 30th n i a field o! about 55 teams. , Finishing fourth n i the 142-pound class, Wolfe could not equal last season's third place finish. Voted NAJA All·American for the second consecutive year. Wolfe "didn't wrestle his best toumllment.'· said PLU wrestling coach Jim Meyerhoff. " 1 did want to do better. but I gave it my liest shot, "' said Wolfe. hoping to grab the national title in his last col­ legiate match. 'Tm going to miss it (wrestling) next year' " said Wolfe. Although nationals did not go as expected for Wolfe, he is thankful that he finished the season injury-free. He ended his wrestling career with an all-time PLU record of 44 wins and seven losses. Senior Phil An­ thony, a J26'pound entry, made it into the consolation ms'tch, (inally losing to Blaine Davis of the University of Min· nesota at Duluth.

"I didn't do' as iYell as- I thought 1 would," Anthony said. Anthony worked hard to get his weight to 126 pounds in preparation for the bi-district touma­ ment at Forest Grove, OR" something that coach Meyerhoff applauded. He showed progress this season and great dedication to go down to , 126, said Meyerhoff. Bothor Anthony's losses n i Minot were to the third and seventh place finishers in his weight class. Junior Keith Eager struggled at na· tionals, Insing the two matches that he wrestled.

New phone policy to protect privacy by Carla T. SaVlIII Mast staff reporter

PLU's t.ciocoml1luniC8tionl:l operators tire no longer giving out student phone numbers, but are continuing to connect incoming calls to on-campus rooms. The change was made Thesday after it was discovered that releasing student phone numbers is a violation of universi· ty policy under the Family Educational Rightsond Privacy Act {FERPA). The 1974 act goyuna the "collection. retention. and dissemination of informa· tion about students." The let perlaim to all ee<:ondary and post·aecondary in· stitutions that receive federalfunding, Anne Culder. telecommunicat:ons of· fice supervisor, said that campus operatora have been giving out IItUdent phone Dumben for lit IeaIIt the last 14 yeUII she hAIl been with PLU. Czelder said year the CamPUII Safety of6ce, which controls the telecommunications syllt.em, hall receiv· ed a copy of tbe FERPA guidelines, but it had assumed the guidelines dealt only with educational records and not t«y information ..-vic:u. The complianc:e error was diBoovered after Mary Lou Fenili. vic:e president for IItudent life, called the telec:ommunic:a· tionNofftee from. off-ampua and to be cormec:ted to • at.u<*It number.

Nch

direc­

asked

Fenili said she was surprised when the operator gave her the number. Fenili sent a c:opy of the FERPA guidelines to Czelder who then im· mediately implemented the change. Fenili said she believes the policy's misinterpretation was not n i tentional. "I don't think the intent was to viole.te student privacy," ahe said. While most of the }o'ERPA guidelines are precise in their requirements, each institution is aUowed some latitude in de6ning directory information. The guidelines aUow for the release of infor­ mation such as name. aGdress, major, date and place of birth and the height lind weight listings for IIthletic teams. PLU has choaen to nano1V1y define directory-information as oon6rmaUon of IIludent enroUment onJy, which means that anyone seeking iwormation on either on-campus or off-campus students 1Vill only be told 1Vbether they III1l CUlT1!11tly in PLU. "We're trying to give responsibility over their lives largely to tbe student," Fenili said. "We're not trying to make it diffac:ult for students to get n i touch with friends. We'n just trying to protec:t privacy if they want it.." According to a memo Fenili isaued to students, fac:ulty and lltaff in September. t.he atudantdirectory, which the university p.lbliabe&. is • confMien-

enrolled

their their

tinl document provided for the exclusive

use of PLU studenLS, staff and faculty.

Release or disclosure of any information in the directory is a violation of FERPA. Fenili said in order to insure com· pliance, student directorie9 will now carry a disclaimer referring to the FER· PA guidelines, and a copy of tho! guidelines will also be included in the student handbook. The hope is that ad· ditional publicity on the guidelines will educate studenUl who fall prey to com­ panies who pay students for campus directories. If studenLS want their donn room or off-campus number released, they must send a ,..-ritten request to the Student ' Life office, Fenili said. Brad McLane, Il54istant campus safe­ egu la­ ty , said the FERPA "r tions have a lot of apace for in reta­ tion. We didn't that the directory stuff was included under the umbrella in the regulations." • McLane said he III not expecting any problems with the change beeaUII8 cam­ pus operators will lltill be able to connect incolDlllin8 .

Aa the Secretary General of the San· diniata Auociation of Cultural Workers, Murillo had planned to tour the United States and give a speech entitled, "Nicaragua: The Cultural and Political Issues," Carr said. Jack Bermingham, PLU assistant professor of history, said that MuriUo was probably denied admission to the United States because of her leftist political beliefs. He said that in the past the U.S. has refused visas to leaders from third world countries because they nrc viewed as "too radical" Denial is generally arbitrary and focused very much on countries with 1Vbose leaders follow leftist political beliefs, he . said he is disappointed that Murillo will not be speaking at PLU.

PLU nntici pates c h u rch· merger by Stuart Rowe Mast reporter As PLU', church ties are transferred from the American Lutheran Church lALC) to the new Lutheran church body in 1988, Lhe university will need to rewrite its constitution if it is to remain the Lutheran church. said Harvey Neufeld. executive director of Church Relations. He said that the new Evangelical Lutheran Church in America lELCAI. will comoilte the ALC. the Association of Evangelical Lutheran Churches (AELCI, and the Lutheran Church in America U..cAI. The new Lutheron church will create six synods in Alaska. Washington, Oregon, Idaho. and Montana megion II. This will force PLU to adapt its con· stitution to the six synods rather than just the ALC, Neufeld said. A forum held March \4·15 at PLU was the first step in working out the future

relationships between the new ELCA and PLU. The issues discussed at the forum included: • relationships between the congrega' tions and PLU • the nominating process for the regents • changes in constitutional documents • the length of regents' terms • the process of delegate election w the PLU corporation , Funding and other topica were also discussed ot the forum "but they are not as crucial at this point as they will be in the future." Neufeld said. . According w a written report from PLU President Rieke, there are seven Regent resolutions that were agreed upon aft..er discussing the issues at the forum. They are to be voted on by the PLU corporation at its meeting on April

2ti.

The corporate meeting place. election of Regents. terms of service. and board

siu are the biggest potential changes, Neufeld said. If passed, the annual corporate meetings of PLU. Inc. will be held on campus. and the election of Regents will take place at these meetings. The term of service for on elected member of the Board of Regents will be tlrrce years per term, ODd will be limited to two consecutive terms.. The Board of Regents will consist of no more than 37 memben. Seven posi· tions are filled by the university presi­ dent and six. bishops, Sixteen membera of the board will be church members. and 14 will be non·Lutheran member-a. The addition of non-Lutheran members. from 6 to 14, is to balance out the board and get a larger input from the non-Lutheran community, Neufeld said. If any of these resolulions are passed at the meeting in April. they will become effective January I, 1988 when the ELCA will be operative.

ASPLU office faces plans for new look by KattMtrlnll Hedland Masl slatl reporter

New president Bruce Deal pions on changing things at ASPLU. including the office it.gelf, which will be remodeled this summer. Deal said the changes are being made in order to make more efficient use of the available space in the ASPLU office, located on the Mezzanine level of the UC. The remodeling is taking place primarily to give ASPLU committee chairs some place La work, Deal said. The present president's office will be converted into a new committee room. In it. committees will beable to work on posters and advertising lind they will hll\'e their o.....n phone and typewriter. " I t will be their own urca," Deal S8id.

cond floor will not be cloged off. Rather than a wall, there will only be a railing to separate the floors, Deal said. Deal said that tho entire office will be painted and there will be some rearranging done, also. Couchea and plants will make the office into an infonnal meeting area. Deal said this will make the office more comfortable and "homier,'" Funding for the remodeling is not coming from ASPLU. Dea.l said that when he originated the idea, he drew up plans and took them to President Rieke. He said Rieke approved them and will be funding them throuti:h special accounts, The project is estimated. La cost between $3,000 and $3,sao Deal S8id. Beca.use the mo·.,ey is not coming from ASPLU, the remodeling project did not have to go through any formal procedures to be approved, Denl said the executive officers discussed it and they lItlkt.od La some ASPLU members.

munity. but the question is whether they are understood. The Student Life office has been planning w revise the guidelines to alleviate misunderstan­ dinga. and Fenili said ahe may also con· sider organizing several workshops. Prior to the adoption of FERPA, students did not have access to their own student files, nor could they ask to review recommendation letters for ac· coracy, "Now students have a chance to correct maCClorste information on recommendation lettft"s," MannelJy said, "That', not as important coming out of this office as it s i in the education department, which requires extensive focwty recommendations." Fenili said she feara the university has not made a positive effort at telling students they do not have to be listed in the campus directory. "If you don't tell us you don't want to be listed, we'U list you," aha said. Lauralee Hagen, residential life direc­ tor, said each fall before the IItudent directoty is publiahed. bullethu and memos are distributed on campUIL reminding students that f i they do not want their name publiahed in the direc­ tory, they must let Residential Life know. Hagen said her office will eventually devise a form that students can fiU out during the admissions process. She said she also misunderstood the FERPA guidelines, Student desk workers in the residence halls had been briving out student numbers. but will no..... be in�tMlcted to comply with the b'\lidelines.

Coffee achievers may suffer u nhealthy side effects purpose of staying up to study if they cannot eoncentrate on the materials.

by Sonja Ostrom Mast reporter If you drink more than one cup of cof­ fee a day. or even several canll of Coke. you may suffer from more than just the jitters. Caffeine use on college campuses, although legal. is often abused by students. If you depend on caffeine to help you "get up" in the morning. you are pr()o bably addicted, according to a recent ar­ ticle in Hea/thline. The article reported that excessive consumption of caffeine can lead to in, somnia, nervousness, irritability, anxie­ ty. and disturbances in the heart rate and rhythm. It also affects coronary circulation, blood presure, the diameter of blood vessels. the secretion of stomach acids. and blood sugar. And if all that isn't enough, caffeine addiction, can also cause increased urine output, headaches. lightheadedn�s, im· paired thinking, and development of a stomach ulcer, An article appearing n i the Hope new.sletter (published by the Bob Hope International Heart Research Institute), reported that although coffee s i calorie free, it can increase an individual's appetite. Some researchers believe that there may be 1.1 link between fibrocystic breast disease (breast lumps) and caffeine conaumption. That wonderful "lift" you get from

drinking caHeine will bring you cruhing down, leaving a feeling of letdown that leads to the second cup of coffee. which leads to se\'eral more, and pretty soon you're "hooked." according to the Healthlinc report. Another study, printed n i a newsletter for residential food services said that the common practice of drinking caf­ feine substances for stimulation is often abused on college campuses. While it docs provide a person with a psychological lift and improves their alertness by suppressing fatigue. the Ill'­ ticle said that caffeine stimulates the cerebral cortex, and possibly to over­ stimulate the brain, making it harder, not easier. toconcentrate, Therefore. students are defeating the CAFFEINE

He has ap­ peared on the Tonight show and in con' cert with Bill Cosby, Bob Hope, . and George Burns. Wagner is partial to m i provisation and often composes while performing. On a recent album he described his style. "As I play this music, I'm not think· ing about p14ying music, and I'm not sure whether the sounds are dictating my mood, or my mood the sounds. or both. As long as the music is coming essentially from my subconscious I am rarely disgu9ted with it." Wagner will play in both a solo and trio setting with Steve Allen on bass guitar and drummer Michael Buono. The showcase concludes at 8 p.m. and is followed by a dance from 9:15 p.m. to 2 a.m. Featured bands jnclude Pop Mechamx-, a group that appeared at the first dinner theatre, and the Seattle group Moving Parts. Admission is $5 for the dinner, showcase and dance. Tickets are available at the UC Information Desk.

Politics is laughing maHer to Capitol Hill humorist Finding humor in politics is something most people fmd difficult, bu� satirist Mark Russell has never con· sidered it a chor-e. Russell, who will appear at the Univer­ sity of Puget Sound Fieldhouse TuC9d.ay night at 8, has often said he will'never run out of material becaU8C politicians will never stop doing funny things. But the political humorist always manages to keep his satirical songs bipartisan . any party or public figure is fair game. Russell began writing and performing his unique music in 1959 while working at the Carroll Arms Hotel Bar on Capitol Hill. But the well·informed professional·looking native of Buffalo, New York is better known for his "Mark Russell Comedy Specials," now in their 1 1 th 8Cason on public television. He has also provided political humor for a radio column on NBC. television's "Real People." and the morning news program "Good Morning America." His weekly newspaper column appears in publications throughout the country, in· cluding the S,UJtrU Time$. Although he only attended college for a few weeks. Russell illuminates politics as succinctly as any professor. His act includes only th09C political people or events that already have been covered by the news media. Nothing s i sacred to RusseU as he stands (never sitsl in front of his baby

But the audience cannot come un' prepared to one of RUMell's perfor­ mances.

Chicago commen· tator Mike Royko. and fellow political songster Tom Lehrer. In a NlCent newspaper int.eniew Ru.!l!Mill said he enjoys perfonning for college audiences. "The most sati:lfying thing to do is a college concert," he said. "You've got a cross·section in the audience, and you just go out and do a big, long show without the disciplines of television." Despite hi.. political knowledge and national pop-tarity, Rus8C1I said he has never considered fUnning for anything but his life. He is happy simply to stand at the keyboard and toss slightly hostile barbs at those who blaze the campaign trails.

6 The Mast, April 4,l986

Hold the phone Twelve years after the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) was passed, PLU administrators have determined that PLU operators wiU not give student, facully or staff phone numbers to off·campus callers. FERPA was passed in 1974 to protect the privacy of college students (see related story. page 1). PLU has consistently held that the student and faculty phone numbers contained in its student directory and faculty, administration and staff directory are published for the private use of the PLU community. But as of APRIL 1 , the university has chosen to interpret this as meaning that operators serving off-campus callers can no longer give out PlU phone numbers. Although It is apparent how the administration could interpret FERPA to Include this, II is Inconvenient and unfair to students, faculty and staff calling from off·campus locations. FERPA iden· tifies such il'dlviduals as entitled to this Information, yet PlU's new Interpre:atior' denies them access to on·campus phone numbers unless they call from on·campus, and will not release phone numbers or make direct phone connection to other oft·campus students. The administration reasons that operators will make a direct con· nectlon between the caller and the on-campus student or office he or she is trying to reach. Is this protecting the privacy of students, faculty or staff? If anything, this policy change merely allows the university to supervise a� studenls faculty and staff are 'connected to potentially harassing caliers. It Is understandable that once administrators realized FERPA rul�s were being violated they had to take measures to resolve what they saw as a problem. It would have been much simpler to walt un· til the beginning of next year when the new directories are being compiled, and then, after the students and faculty were given the chance to determine whether or not they wanted their numbers given out, off·campus operators could give out their numbers. -David Sieves

Eraser inventors save us from indelible mistakes by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter I have had itt 1 am convinced we all are living in a ....orld . of morons, incomp­ tents, and idiots. Some of the increase in goof·ups and breakdowns can be seen as a sign of workmanship, deterioration in materials. and service. Other mistakes are evidence that our machines and com· puters are really no better than the human beings who run and program them. Garbage' in. Garbage out. Just this month. I caught two erron on my bank atatement, three mistakes on 8. financial aid fonn, and two errors in a classified ad. To top it off, an airline ticket with the wrong date and the wrong flight number-and I'm not even Dying home. Two buttona popped off the crotch of my brand new Levi's the fIrst time I wore them out the door, and my friend was stranded inside his brand new car when the door wouldn't open from the inside. All this does not include the hundreds of stupid mistakes that somehow are transferred to papers and tests. How they get there, no one knows. I gucss we all must be realistic about error. We will never eliminate its ex' istenCf'. Error is universal, affecting and

afflicting us all. Even when we design the human being's life with a technological system designed to redUOl1 error, we must remember that an error· prone hurnan designed that system. It's a mistake not to expect mistakes. There ia, of course, one individual who Slands out as our hero-Joseph Priest· Iy, the inventor of the eraser. The invention of the eraser came to Priestly by accident ""hen he was study· ing the sticky sap of a Soutb American tree newly introduced to Europe. He d..i.scovered that the "weeping wood" could be uaed to remove writing. �.. He described the material as, "ex· ceJ.lently adapted to the purvo.se of wip­ ing from paper the marks of black lead pencilll." Priestly dubbed the gunk, "rubber" since the removal of pencil mark res:ulted from rubbing the harden· ed sap against the page. Priestly made most of his chemical discoveries Iwhicb ncluded i .seltzer and sulfer dioxide) by mistake. He was ob­ viously an individual who understood the human condition. Thanks to Priestly and those who came after him Isuch os the inventors of Wite-Out, Ko-Rec·Type, and erasable inkl, life is a little easier in a world ruled by the Reign 01 Error, the one earthly reign that will probably never be erased.

When is it alright to bite the hand that feeds you? by Darryl Brown Syndicated columnist The work of reporters aI.n sometimes be done only when I. source is kept secret. For scholars, the opposite is true. The academic community depends upon the free exchange of ideas and informa· tion, which is why there s i tension bet· ween academic research (and thus scien· tific progress) and the way that ' work often is financed. Journalists and scholars have this in common: their work doesn't pay for itself; the money has to come from

r------,

elsewhere. !Subscriptions don't come close to financing newspapers.) That's why editors don't assign their reporters to muckrock the paper's big advertisers. And that'S why scholars too frequently compromise their research by obeying a giftgiver's wishes. Neither group bites the hand that feeds it. For research in U.S. coUeges, money comes either from private 8OUf'CeS­ frequently corporations-or the govern· ment. Both sometimes attach atringa. That's why one Harvard professor had to res:ign this year, and another still might. They did research funded. by the CIA. which demanded secrecy. The scholars aquiesced, forsaking freedom of information for needed funds. Word got out, they got caught, the academic com· munity protested. and t.he CIA announc· ed. a change in policy. Deputy CIA director Robert M. Galee said t.he agency will begin loosening con­ atrictions unless "we determine thlt for­ mal public association of tb CI A with a specific topic or subject would prove damaging to the United Slates." That e9Cape clause still worries many p� fssora, but most agree it's a step in the right direction. Previously, aU research

disorderly conduct. Two girls reported their purses stolen Friday afternoon and when a couple of police confronted a large group n i the area, the kids tmostly high school age according to later reports) began throwing things at the police. prompted thpm to call in reinforcements from neighboring towns. That evening the police force was doubl­ ed and several media nelVS teams were on the scene. A couple friends and I lVere driving along that night looking at the crowd and I was leaning out the window aince we did not have a convertible like almost everyone else. California has a seat belt law so I was not surprised when a policeman told me to sit down and put my seatbelt back on_ I politely complied (seriously!). but the policeman saw my friend sitting next to me in the backseat reach into a brown paper sack and he yelled at us to stop the car. He must have thought it wa, liquor. but the girl driving didn't hear him, so he began bashing on her new white Audi M)()(l with his big black rubberized flashlight. This produced one small dent and two black rubber amudges on her wheel well. When the policeman discovered that the bag only held camera . heju8t walked away. A little further down the road was a TV news cameraman. as soon as his partner turned on the bright lights. everybody nearby J'U9hed to the scene, yelling and screaming. A bunch of guys swarmed over this black pickup with two girls in it. On the news that night. they said that they had their ahirts rip­ ped olf and their swimsuits underneath got tom. I did not see that part of it at the time. but we had been behind this truck for twenty minutes and no one at­ tacked them until they were on camera. In spite of all the bad publicity. I think I might go back down nezt year. The weather was great and you never see people or cars like that up here in Parkland. Just one word of advice: Stay away from news camer8!l and policemen.

Conservative college papers fight back College Press Service A student newspaper of �i1c "new right" at the University of Teus now says it will go to court to gain the right to distribute itself on campus, retracing the steps once trod by leftisl campus papers. The Texas Review wants permiuion to distribute itself aU over the sprawling UT campus, a privilege now reserved for the Daily Texan, UT's officill.! <tItudent paper. "Why must there by just one student newspaper?" asks John Colyandro, ' founder and student publisher, who says the Reivew brings a long-needed conser' vative voice to the UT campus. "There's an overwhelming dil!lCrepan­ cy between the generll.! sent.iment of

s�udents on w"hot's c:xpounded in the student daily,' he says. The university gets in the way of spreading the "sentiment," ColYllndro says, by enfordng a rule that keeps aU ad-carrying papers except the Daily Texan on the periphery of the cllmpus. Now Colyandro, rcprsented by the Texas Civil Liberties Union (TCLU), is going to court to chaUenge the rule. In resellrching the case, TCLU at· tomey Susan Dasher found UT hilS been through a similar suit, but one med la!t time from the Jeft, In 1970, The Rag, published by the New Left Education concept. dragged UT all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court to gain distribution rights on campus. That case was remanded back to a lower cowt. where UT revised its

rule to e:xciude only papers containing advertising. But the rule now e:xciudes thc Revicw. which contains ads "consistent with its philosophy," i.e.. a Conservative Book Club promotion, The Daily Texan WIlS exempted from the rule by special dispensation from the university. "Therc're no set standards for gran­ ting exceptions to this rule," 58S Dasher, who labels the Texan's exemp­ tion from the rull' " arbitrary." Last week the review did win a tem· porary restraining order to let its ataff. hand out papers on certain parts of campus.

About 40 avowedly conservative papers have sprung up on U.S. cam' puses since 1983, when the Institute for Educational Affairs-a New York think tank founded by former U.S. Treasury Secretary William Simon and neoconscr· vative writer Irving Kristol-began fun­ ding them. The papers, despite what by campus standards has been lavish funding, have had their share of troubles. The most notorious and successful has been The Dartmouth Review, which has frequently-and happily-provoked its campus with ardl putdowns of liberals, homosexuals, anti-segregationists and others. Two weeks ago the Heritage Founda­ tion, a Washington, D.C.,·based think tank, rai8ed 17,000 for Review et.afers accused of smashing an anti'apartheid "shantytown' on the campus.

New rowing mentors predict 'good season' by Jimmy Brazil Mast sports editor After seven long months of grueling workouts, the Pacific Lutheran Rowing Club will nnaUy get a chance to test fitness, skill and intensity levels star­ ling this weekend on American Lake. The Lute rowers engaged n i 8 strenuous dry land regimen during the fall semester in preparation (or the up­ coming season. The coaching staff pul morc emphasis nto i the dry-land pro­ gram than past pre-seasons, Bob Trond· sen. first-year men's crew mentor. The rowers wen measured and timed on a weekly basis in various athletic activities. Trondsen, a (our-year PLU alumnus rower. said the team is where he had hoped at the present tiD'".e. Trondsen said that all the boats ate rowing well together and as a unit. Women's coach Elise Lindborg. also a fonner PLU rower, feeJs that the prioritized dry-land program was in· vaJuable to the girls' dedication. "Dry·land weeded out a lot of people which left me with a group of dedicated rowers," said Lindborg. "We are a lot farther ahead of last year at this time." The fll'st month of practice consisted of seat racing and 8ltt.er:laive, aerobic workouta to m i prove conditioning.

division and I'm glad we got to ex­ perience such high.eal.iber competition." Coach Marshall said Jolene Murphy. the number six player, worked especial­ ly hard and "gave an all-out perfor­ mance" in the Phoenix matches. Marshall added, "No spot, be it. one through six, is an easy spot to play," Murphy is currently 12·1 for the season. In doubles, Carlson and senior Tanya Jang paired up to win &1 straight mat­ ches. They're undefeated 90 far this season with a 12-0 nwk, playing in the number three spot.

Marshall feels this Phoenix trip has toughened the women up both physical· ly and mentally.

She is looking forwiii.rd tu the rest of the season. and hopefully a sixth con­ secutive trip to nationals.

April 1 1 . 1986

The three-member University Con· gregation Corpmittee on Sanctuary, Bre:.lt Hample, Tracy Gubsch and Pastor Stephen Rieke, have studied the sanctuary issue since October 1985, Meeting on a weekly basis, the commit· tee studied questions of conscience, morals, ethics, law, politics, and religion and composed a study document entitl· ed "Sanctuary." The document, outlining the history of sancLllary, faith responses to the issue, legal considerations as well as the current status of Cent�al America, pro­ posed 15 courses of possible action rang· ing from no support to full support and housing of refugees, The document quotes a resolution adopted by the North Pacific District of American Lutheran Church which en· steve Allen, bassist lor the KING·TV 'Almosl Uve' band played some cool Oregon, Washington, compasses J8l2 Saturday night during ASPlU's second 'Dinner Oance Showcase: held Alaska, and Southern Idaho.

The first computeI' science engineer· n i g major offered lil Washington state begins this fall at PLU, said President William Rieke, The new program. directed by Robert Gutmann, a PLU engineering professor, is designed to fill the shortage of engineering degrees in Washington state. "Financial constraints ha\'e placed severe limitations on engineering educa· tion n i Washington," Rieke said. "Facilities have failed to keep pace with demand, so' institutions th'tlt do offer engineering programs have been forced to restrict enrollment to maintain quality." Enrollment limitations are particu1ar­ ly severe at the University of Washington and Washington State University. Both offer computer erigineering programs, but neither is of· ficially a major, Rieke said, The shortage of computer engineers is not limited to Wasnmgtor.. The Na· tional Science Foundation predicts a shortfall of 138,000 computer and digital engineers nationwide within the next year. Gutmann said " computer engineering will fill the gap between computer science, which mostly deals with com· puter software, and electrical engineer' n i g. which mostly deals with computer hardware."

Therefore the im· mediacy of the crime is destroyed. Because of the condition the bodies of the approximately 40 victims were discovered in, Nordby said, it is also dif· ficult to predict their time of death. He said that the fIrst bodies, discovered floating n i the Green River, were probably the freshest ones, but that water cleans everything off the body, He added that unfortunately they found them wht!n the police did not know what they should be looking for. Other bodies that have been discovered in rugged areas, Nordby said, have been left out for a long time. He said that in certdin areo,il body parts were carried off by animals. DloCompos· cd bodies, he said, make the diS('overv and analysis of physical evidence . difficult.

Experts believe that thc industrial world is on the \'erge of II ncw compULer revolution. fueled by the use of artificial intelligence systems designed to u�e the power of computers to managc kno.....ledge. At present. U,S. universities cannot meet the demand for computer scien­ tists with AI training. The leading universities such as St.anford and MIT ha\'e excellent programs. and many large universities offer a course or two. but programs will haw to bewme far more comprehensive and common if the U.S. is to compete with other countries in AI development. PLU computer scientisL Rick Spillman believes the new 18b is unique in the country. It suppore.s one of the no­ tion's first undergraduate AI programs. "Virtually all others exist at the graduate level. he said. "Fe\O,'. if IIny other AI labs give undergraduaLe-sophomores and juniors--access to equipment without having to compete with graduate students. " Spillman said. Spillman believes that the PLU pro­ I,'Tllm clln serve liS a model for other universities. "We are developing a powerful system at minimal cost. and our model cou Id benefit other schools." he said.

to a college with a four year engineering program tocomplete their degTeC. Gutmann said PLU has formal agreements with Stanford University in Polo Alto. Calif., and Columbia Univer­ sity in New York, that allows students to transfer without losing any credits. Once high school counselors spread the word and people find out that "PLU is a place to get an engineering degree," enrollment in the engineering program should increase, he said. A proposal for an electrical engineer· ing degree was turned down last April because of COncern for the number of new courses that would have to be created for the major and the start-up costs of the program. After a review by Rick Spillman, PlU associate pro­ fessor of computer science, the two faculties decided that the computer sciencelelectrical engineering combina· tion was more practical for the universi­ ty than the electrical engineering major. This is because fewer courses will have _ to be introduced.

He said they attempt to construct scenarios, evaluate the argument.s, and choose the most possible circumstances. Nordby said that in attempting to come up with a list of suspects. the pro­ blem is that there are too many rather than too few suspects, He said there art' II number of suspects who have characteristics that the killer is ex· pected to hpve. He added that the task foroo has to somehow pick out the suspects with the highest probability. Sinc!! there arc not any accepted methods on how to track down a serial killer, Norduy !!Oid, the task force is at· tempting to establish a strategy. The task force is probably the best authority on the subject, The major thinking late­ ly has dealt with the use of the computer as an investigati1le tool, Computers can serve a double func· tion in the process of investigation. Nordby said, for prosecution and analysis. He said that no one has yet figured out the most productive way to use the computer. He said he is trying to help the task force use the computer to iur fuU potential. "I'm aort of frustrated by the difficul­ ty of the problem," Nordby said. He added that he would like to see the com­ puter u8Cd to generate information rather than just store it. In other serial killing cases, Nordby said. there h89 been a tendency to rely on the psychologica.l flawe of the killer, simply waiting for him to make a mistake. He said that he would like to see the computer replace the lucky break 110 that. the kiUer could be stopped before 50 msny livell are lost. He added that if the victims were not prostitu�. the Green River case would be more well known. Nordby said that in his opinion. serial killers are cunnmg and capable of in· genious reasoning. He said that such killers are more clever than the law en­ forcement. He said that if the computer

I guess you could call me a professional skeptic," Nordby said. "When you look at a case, you have to be more humble than human nature directS us to be. You have to admit that you just don't know everything." In his experi'lnces, Nordby said, he

has become aware of the parallel bet· ween issues in logic . and thoge in criminal law. He said they are c109ely related. Next year on his sabbatical he plans on writing a book on the use of computers and logic in tracking down a Solrial killer. He said he hopes that his work will somehow help m i prove the process of tracking a serial killer, especially since such murder cases are projected to be a biKger problem in the future.

Congregation studies sanctuary movement Sanctuary, from page 1 could track down such killers mOTe quickly, perhaps chaUenging their cleverness would help deter them. "It will never be an easy proce.ss," Nordby said. "I am getting all the in­ teUectual challenge 1 could want and even more. It's an eJ[tremely tough " ,�

Nordby received his undergraduate degree in philosophy at St. Olaf Univer­ sity in Minnesota, where he abo studied applied science, English and pbyaics. He received his graduate degree in philosophy at the Univcrllity of Massachusetta in Amherst. In 1976, when he was n i graduate schooJ, Nordby was approached by tbe Weatern Massachusetur Aasaseination Bureau. They were lI"ying to generate in­ formation to be used in the House Aasassination Committee'a reinvestiga­ tion of the John F. Kennedy case.

The document emphasizes Central American refugees becauge of their relative proximity to the United SLate!! and the fact that the United States does not consider these people refugees. "The U.S. would have to lose face in­ ternationally f i we suddenly accepted Central American refugees and admit that we have been backing oppressive ro,·.munents all along," Rieke said. Sanctuary workerll face potential pro­ secution under the Immigration and Na­ tionality Act of 1952. If a person ia con­ victed of violating the act, the penalty could be five years n i prison andfOT a fine of l2,OOO: for each separate insLance of allsisting an alien. According to committee member Hample, approximately 300 churches across the United States and cities in­ cluding Seattle and Olympia, have declared themgeIves sanctuaJies. "People working for St. Leo's la local church organization that provides food for the needyl, would probably be the firllt ones to get arrested," Hample said. Rieke added that no legal action resulted from the publication of an arti­ cle, with pictures, ofSt.. Leo"s efforts at .

assisting refugees. "We are being careful to provide infor­ mation and be sure people understand that this is civil disobedience," Rieke said. "We don't want to impose on other people who wouJd not necessarily know about it otherwise," he said. "We don't have our own church building, if we did it would be a hotter iasue," Hample said. "Since the con­ gregation only meets nine months out of the yeAf, we can't give tot.al saDl:tuuy, but we don't want that to stop us from helping out." In order to invite refugees to Universi­ ty Congregation, the congregation would need the permiasion of both Rieke and the Board of Regcnur, said Hample. Any decision made by the congrega· tion will be valid until the end of the cur­ tent academic year. " We did not want to make decillions at this time that were permanent and bin· ding ones," Rieke said. "This s i an sisue for this year'a council and we will leave it open for other councils to explore it f i they chose." "I don't think it (the sanctuary move­ menl) will be resolved soon," he sairl. "It's not goinK to sort itself out quickly."

Forum to focus on third world and technology by Katherine Hedland Mast stall reporter

Western Technology and Third World development will be the topic of the third and finol Presidentiol Forum. next Thesdny, in the CK. Robert Stivers. 0 religion professor and member of the Technology and Liberal Arts Committ.ee (TLC), which planned the forum. said that aU three hove been attempts .to "relate the phenomenon of modern technology to the liberal arts perspecti\'es of universities... "With the full range of human knowledge, there is 0 tendency to pay less ottention to liberal ons becouse of the emphosis of technology," Stivers said. Edwin Clausen. a PLU history pro­ fessor ond one of the central speakers, will present a lecture on China. He said he will use China as 0 case study to show "the failure of the technology of China to address China's needs and the failure of liberal arts education in the United Slates to understand China's real needs." Clausen has traveled extensively through Asia. including nine trips to China. His speciolties are in Modern China and Comporative Third World Historical Studies. Clausen 's n i formation is based on historical evidence and his own original research.

He has lectured around the world. in· cluding Hong Kong, Singapore. Taiwan and the United States. He has taught at PLU for four years. Michael Poellet of the religion depart­ ment. will deliver the second main lec­ ture. His speech. entitled "Docile Bodies, Dangerous Memories: The Eros of Technology." will focus on the rela· tionsh.ip between the United States and Central America. PoeJlet said that he will explain how the relationship between developed and underdeveloped nations is one of dependence. He will also discuss various policies including Liberation Theology. a new religious movement in Latin America. and how. despite the good n i ­ tentions behind the theories, they fell short in helping Central and Latin America. Instead, the theories "continue to fostu the notion of dependence in these natiu'lS." he said. Continuing the discusssion on the issue will be Judith Russon, from the Anthropology department. JocK Birm­ ingham from the History department. and Gundor King, dean of the School of Business Administration. They will present supplementary ideas of their own and offer commenL5 relating to the general theme of the forum, King said.

Leaks to persist i n Ingram by Jackla Gilmore Masl reporler The leaky roof in Ingram Hall, which has been raining on c10sses for the last decade, will continue to dampen student spirits until the building can be vacated for summer break. Jim Phillips, director of the physical plant. said that the original contractors misunderstood the starting dote of the 514.200 re-roofing project. Insteod of beginning work at the start of spring brenk. they thought the project would begin March 31. Because of the error. a new roofing firm has �n contracted to begin work May 26. In the meantime they wi ll repair any noticeoble leaks. It should take obout four days and will be done before summer session begins. said Phillips. Phillips said the roof has been patched

/Inri i1!astic has been put up in some areas to keep the water out. "There are still some minor leaks. Right now it's in pretty good shape," he said. It is too expensive for the university to replace the existing design with a pit­ ched roof because of the high cost of in­ stalling raft.ers to support the pitched roof, said Phillips. • . J n the long run it will be more expen­ sive continuing to maintain the nat roof. In 18 to 20 years 0 pitched roof will pay for itself and you would continue to pro­ fit from it because of low mointainence." he said. "F.veryone is supportive of putting the pitched roof on it fI n!.'Tam Ham but there are no funds available." Phillips said thot nat roofs are supposed to last 10 to 15 years. but they "never seem to last that long." He said that he is still hoping a pitch­ ed roof will be built in the future.

The School of Business Administra­

tiOD!:is moving into Blomquist House,

previously occupied by the Communica· tion Arts department, said Gundar King, dean of the School of Business Administration. As part of the final stages of a tw� year university reorganization plan, King said the School of Business is mov­ ing to consolidate its offices into fewer buildings. Some of the offices are now located on East Campus, in Ramsey House, and the Administration building. King said that many of the profes�rs who had offices in small or inappropriate places will be moved into Blomquist. "Some of them have been in cup­ boards," he said. There will be one room vacant in Ramsey House and two rooms in E811t Campus available for classroom use. Of­ fice and classroom use in Ramsey house,

located on the comer of r Street and Wheeler, will eventually be eliminated. King said. In addition to office space. Blomquist will have one conference room and a computer room for the School of Business. There will be no further remodeling done on Blomquist House, King said. The inside of the house was cotr.pletely rennovoted a couple of years ago, said Jm i Ph.illips, Physical Plant director. The Communication Arts department moved n i to Ingram Hall during Interim. and the School of Business is now waiting for completion of basic housekeeping and repairs. King sait! that the School of Business is in no hurry to move, but they do hope to be settled by the end of the semester. Michael Bartanen, chair of the Com· munication Arts department. said that Ingram is a better place for the depart­ ment because there is more space, and classrooms and offices are now located n i the same building.

Air band show cancel led when interest wanes by Shelley Bryan Masl reporler PLU's fifth annual "Battl(, of Lh(' Air· b3nds:' scheduled for tonight nnd tomorrow night in Chris Knutzen lin]] hns been cam:dled due to lack of participation. By yesterday afternoon all but two en· trants in the contest had withdrawn fro;"!} the event. said ASPLU Specilll Events Committee Co--chair Don Erickson. Ten bands had been signed to per· form. said ASPLU PrOb'Tam Director· elect Chip Upchurch. The competition has been a popular (,I'cnt lit PLU, but as carly as last Mon· day some committee members weTI' con· cerned about the number of band5 par· ticioating this year. Committee co-chair Bruce Randall said he was "a little worried about the poor showing lof bands) so far." The only requirements air band oon· testnnts need is to supply their own music. keep the performance in "reasonably good taste," and to follow certain time restrictions. Erickson had said earlier this week that he was not concerned about this years show: but several bands withdrew at the last minute forcing the cancella· tion of the show. The air band musicians had differ('nt reasons for why, or why not, they were trying out. Most said they had audition· ed because "it would be fun:' David Remer, an air band contestant both lost year and this year, said he was planning todo it again because, ""it was a blast." When told of the show's cancellation Remer said he ""as very disappointed. "I think it sucks," hE' said. "Everybody had such a good time last year that it's too bad the committee sat on its hands until it was t.oo late." Remer said he believes the committee did not publici%e the event well enough or far enough in advance. Students not trying out gave varying reasons ranging from "too short of notice" to "not being able to think of a song." Brian Lloyd, one of the winners from the air band contest last year, said he wasn't trying out because "the tim· ing was bad as far as studies." However, he did say he enjoyed last year's experience. ''It's exciting to do an act in front of an audience," he said. The next activity sponsored by the Special Events committee will be a dsnce after the ASPLU spring picnic on May 9. Depending on whether some con· flicts can be resolved, the dance will be held in Red Square.

In scil!Cting each of it!! �ve.nts, the Artist Series committee tries to present quality groups whose perfor-­ mances provide a wide repertoire of entertainment, said Jenny Linham, co-chair of the committee. One of the main reasons the t.roupe was selected for the Artist Series was because it has an "eSlablished reputation, " and it is one of tbe most professional groups on the commit­ tee's list of possibilities, she said. She said that price and availability were also major facters in the decision Wyman rlTst began working with students in Vancouver, British Col, umbia in 1967. For the past decade. the troupe has covered the extreme bounds of dance in its varied and uni· que programs. The is selected exclusively by Anna Wyman, the founder and artistic director.

Karen Scherwood said that Wyman's trademark is the incorporation of these components as a part of dance. Wyman has explored the use of several types of media. for morc unusual methods of expression. Pro­ se, sound effectt, and miking have all helped to enhance audio sensations. Video cltmeras have even been used on stnge to bring out items such as the nose or ears from a different perspective. said Scherwood. The company is made up of eight to

ten dancers, male and female, several of whom have been with Wyman for over a decade. Because of the group's small site, there is no "star" system, and each dancer is required to learn a majority of the roles. Dancers lake a daily class in both ballet. and modern dance, followed by several hOUr! of . rehearsal, six days of the week. From this extensive training, Wyman can draw upon many resources to form her dancers' R\l?Yc­ ment ability, all of which enhance her diverse style.

If the names and faces of the members of the band 2XY seem familiar don't be surprised. Two former PLU students are half of the group that ha9 begun La make a little money, as well as make music. Vocalist Carrie Clemetson. a former student of music and sociology at PLU. and PLU piano performance graduate Lucy Watts recently departed for a tour of Northwest clubs. The other members of the band are guitarist Mike Robinson and drummer Kelly Willham. The group left last Friday for Van· couver Wash. to play "on the road". They rctumed to Seattle for June per· formances and hope to continue travel· ing to Hawaii. The band's name i9 a pun on genetics and algebra; the men are represented by "Y" chromosomes and the women by "X" chromosomes-therefore, 2XY, The group's founder is Robinson who began writing and playing music whi le living in Anchorage, Ala. in the summer of 1983. Clemetson said 9he was drawn into the band almost by chsRCi!. Also a resi· dent of Ala9ka, 9he met Robinson in public school and later agreed to help him write music. Soon aftef that. she began singing with the group. "At fust you're so aware of every move you make," she said. "Everyone expects you La do and be something when they see you.·' It takes courage to get on stage, she said. Clemetson describes the band's "big break" a.s a six·month tour of Hawaii and Korea. Previous to that 2XY had been contracted for severa] jobs around bothAnchorage and Seattle. "Going on the road is lots of fun,·' she .said. However, said Clemetson, touring also taught them that a lot of groups "want to kill each other,'· But few of those the band came across were the stereotypiea1 drug·addict rockers, she llaid,

He is a veteran of several years in the music busineS9. Last faU the group came back to Tacoma while Clemetson attended school. Watts said band member9 went their separate ways during the nut few months and 9he sat in on keyboard! for what 9he thought would be a short·term favor for a friend. But as her enjo.1ment of the job n i creased so did her commitment. Watts said it was difficuJt to jump right into performing with a rock band after playing and studying classical music at PLU. She joined the group right after her senior recital last November. "I feel like a different person now." she said. "Now the only pressure I feel is getting the songs learned." After acquiring new members the band wanted a new name. They also pur· chased $20,000 of equipment. Watts said she was surprillCd La find that her musical skills directly applied to rock music. "Ear training has really helped me or· chestrate songs and to discern intervals while composing. , . she said.

The. Mast, April 1 1 , 1986

PLU and the sanctuary movement This Sunday the U n iversity Congregation will be addressing the Sanc, tuary Movement which has become a moral and political issue to chur, ches nationwide (See related story. page 1). The University Congregation should be applauded for its decision to take a stance on such a timely and morally important Issue. Credit should also go to the congregation's Committee on Sanctuary and Its members, Brent Hample, Tracy Gubsch and Pastor Stephen Rieke, who thoroughly researched the issue and have explored a variety of options available to the congregation. The committee has been researching the Sanctuary Movement for over six months, studying the history, philosophy, legal problems and re, cent examples of the movement. By undergoing thorough research and discussion, the Committee on Sanctuary was able to recognize the problems that could ensue If a col, lege congregation was to attempt to actually house Salvadoran refugees seeking assylum from persecution in their country. Such problems would include the facl that a student congregation meels only nine m')nths of the year, and doesn't have the financial resources to provide complete support for a single relugee, let alone an entire family. Recognizing these difficulties, Hample, Rieke and Gubsch have developed a well·planned ballot which will be d istributed at all three ser· vices Sunday. The ballot provides voters with nol jusl the option of sup· porting the Sanctuary Movement, but also allows congregation members the opportunity to determine the types of actions the con, gregation lake, ranging from doing nothing or merely educating the public concerning the Sanctuary Movement to financially supporting local churches providing sanctuary, and assisting refugees involved in the movement (providing child care, assistance in finding employment. and i n applying for U,S. cit izenship), According to research conducted by the Center for Constitutional Rights, up to 1 million Salvadorans had been displaced, and over 40,000 Salvadoran civilians had been killed by early 1985. In Gualamala, 86,000 people were killed by parami litary death squads between 1954 and 1984. The American Civil Uberties Union has compiled evidence 01 1 2 0 Salvadorans who have suffered murder, torture a n d imprisonment after being deported flom the United States. Because the United States government has failed to recognize the need 10 oller sanctuary for refugees, chuches and recently city govern, ments have taken a morally correct stance by providing asylum Salvadoran and Guatemalan refugees, The PlU University congregallon appears to be following in this trend of providing aid to Salvadoran and Guatemalan refugees. Ho�fully the months of work will pay off for the Committee on Sanctuary and for the growing number of Central American refugees seeking asylum.

Call for divestment in S.A. despite new drinking equality by Mark Schroeder

Mast cotumnis! Good news for all you people out there concemed with the situation in South Africa. It is DOW legaJ for whltes and blacks to drink in the same establishments. The Nationalist government Tuesday

ended required gegn>gBtion in hotels, bars, and other places that serve liquor.

Industry spokesman Fred Thumann

Off The Mark called it "a tremendous step forward." but he went on to say that individual proprietors were still free to decide for themgelves who they would and would not serve. In wtult can only be called another tremendOU9 step. Nobel Peace Prize win· ner Bishop Desmond Tutu openly called for economic sanctions, including divestment, Earlier last year Tutu said he would not call for ciivestment unless the government failed to take steps toward dismll.ntling apartheid. Obvious· ly he feels that drinking in bars is not all that important. 1'utu's call for divest· ment is a very significant shift among the lIlore moderate voices of opposition in South Africa. We here in the U.S. can expect the issue of divesttnE'nt to become even more vital. In fact the PLU Board of Regents will be considering a plan for divestment at their /\pril 29 meeting, So, you may well ask, what is thi9 divestment thing all about? Briefly. it is the process by which someone who has money in\'e9ted in hlInksand businesses that do business in South Africa shift thcir invC9tments to companies that don't. Thi9 way they lire not supporting opartheid n i any direct fashion. South Africa, with its vast mineral wealth and equally Vll9t suppty of cheap labor has been a very tempting invt..'Stment for U.S. companies, Divest!1lent has two major goals. First, it is a demonstration of disapproval of the apartheid system. Serond it sounds pretty foolish to say you are againsL apartheid when your in· vestments there are earnin.-; you money. There is a lot 01 misunderstanding as ttl what the effects of divestment would be in South Africft. Unless we as a na· tion divest entirely, the money will still be there. The n i itial result will not be major economic setbacks for the blacks or whites. At thi, stage divestment is mostly a way for people and groups to show that they do not approve of apar­ theid by putting their money where there mouth9 are.

Research on campus: Faculty, students explore new areas to enhance their teachi ng, ed ucat ion b y Brian OaiBalcon

Qualifications for a professor stale that he'1she, "shall have evidenced [I, qUlllity of continuous gTowth

Mast prOle(;IS editor Although research is the backbone of any ntellec· i tually growing university, PLU has no official research requirement for its faculty, PLU sees itself first as an instructional n i stitution, rather than a think tank for experimenLllI rescarch. Because of this attitude, academic research is only strongly encouraged at PLU. said professor Jerrold Lerum, chair of the biology department. "Teaching is a faculty member's first responsiblity [at PLUI. Research is not a substitute for teaching," said Lerum. But if a faculty member ever hopes to advance his rank within the -.;niversity and reach tenure, he must be continually enga� in research. The bylaws to the Faculty Constitution (Article V, Section 21. state that in order for a faculty member to reach assoc.illte profeSllOr. he/she "shall have evidenced a continued development in scholarly work."

in teaching and leadership."

"Though research is not ncc£ssary, it is required in the sense that it demonstrates scholarly work. and that means research," said Eldon Schafer. professor of business administration, "There is really no other way of demonstrating scholarly work, unless you can identify it. Publishing is simply a wr.,y of documenting one's work," Schafer said. "You don'� expand the frontiers of knowledge if no one ever sees your work." The School of Business holds an unwritten guideline that its faculty be continually involved in research of some sort. "It s i our eXJXctation that every faculty member will produce something every year (for publication). That could IT.ean a journal article or a case report," Schafer said. He added that the School of Business also expects tbeir faculty to produce a substantial research project every five years "that the profession says is good

research." This is usuaUy in the form of publication by one of the leading academic journals. "Good journal articles are judged on the quality of the research. It is on this basis that articles are ac· cepted or rejected," he said. "Research s i an important part of the accreditation process, and for external evaluation to jUd&e if a facul· ty member is any good." said Gundar King, dean of the School of Business. The quality of research "affects the university's reputation," King said. Research is also a vital part of the natural sciences departml'nts. Chemistry professor Fred Tobiason said of the chemistry department, "We have a long, long tradition of research. It is built into the fabric of this department." Research delivers benefits to both students and schelars. " University professors are not only committed to the transmission of knowledge, but are also responsi· ble for advancing what we know and sharing them wit.ll colleagues," said Chris Browning, professor in the History department. Browning aaid that. research also increases the vitali· ty of a professor, "If all a professor does is teach the same classes year after year, the material becomes bor· ing to him. He must do research to keep inteUec:tually alive. It. revitalizes him and makes him an active part or what he is t.eachiDg." "History is not a stale body of facts. We must do research to find new ways to explain what has been said before," Browning said.

Research finds infertility can strengthen marriage by Briln O.IB.lcon Mast projects editor As women enter the workplace in greater numbers and put off having children until later, the problem ofinfer­ tility among married couples has reach· ed epidemic proportions. . Over 2Y1 million Americans are infer· Lile. They spend 1200 million annually in medical expenses to overcome the pl'O' blem, said Ann Hirsch, associate pro­ fessor of nursing at PLU. Hirsch said she hu always been in, terested in the infertility problem, especially since she and her husband have been perllOnally affected by infertilit).

Working with her husband, Steve, an assistant prof�s50r of psychology at the University ofWashington, the couple spends most of their time researching the effects of infertility on married couples, from their home. The emphasis of their study is aimed at measuring the self-esteem, marital, sexual, and generol satisfaction of infer· tile, married couples. Using a sample of 31 women, 29 men, and 20 couples, mostly from the upper· middle class, the Hirsch's have sent out five different questionnairea to all 100 of the participants. The results have been both pndic­ table and surprising. Most surprising was the discovery t.hat marital satisfaction did not

decrease becaullC 01 1lIlertility. The pro­ blem is considered a crisis among mar­ ried couples, The Hirsch's reasoned that the crisis of infertility drawa couples together and makes the marriage atronger because bothmust go through it together. "If you have open communication and a strong marriage in the first place, in· fertility can make a marriage atronger," said Hinch, "As couples say, 'Let'a wock together: they become mOf"e of a cou· ple." ahe added. As the HiNeh's predicted. they found a large decreaae in aexual satisfaction , among infertile married couples. When an infertile woman is taking drugs to help her ovulate, such aa clomid

or pergonal. she muat have interCOur88 on a set schedule to increase her chances ofbecomiDgpregnant. Hirach said the couple8' 881Ual satisfaction decrease8 becau88 of the los.s of apontaneity, "SeJ: 10888 the fun aspec:t:Everything ia structured and timed. The couple must copulate a certain way, at certain times," said Hirsch. The 8tudy also reveal8 that depression grew among Infert.i1e women as they sought treatment without 8Uccesa. Hirsch said the women's diacontent· meftt grew as they foeused on the fact that thecouple'a infertility was the .. women'. physical problem. Their reeearch found that 80 percent of infertility problems belong to women. Also, because treatment is expensive, Hirsch found deprflSlJion increued as in· fert.i1e women went through treatment month after month without positive results or return for their money.

"If you have open communica· tion...infertility can make your mar· riage stronger." -Anne Hirsch, associate pro· fessor of Nursing Minimal treatment it ,&00 a month. Druga can run up to 11,000 a month. In· vitro fertilization averages from 13,000 to 55,000 with a 23 percent success rate, according to an April 1985 edition of Science magazine. Hirsch said that the huge inveslment of money and time is not always noces'Iarily negative. "It may have a positive effect, especially on the male. He, at least, feels like he is doing something," Hirsch explained, Older women arc more susceptible to depression. so the problem is compound· ed when couples put off having children, . , At 39, the women are much more depressed," said Hirsch, The results of the I'1!scarch, entitled, " The Psychosocial Implications of in· fertility" will be presented June 2Q ata Nursing Research conference in Honolulu. The Hirsch's began their research in January 1985, Lait Junl;!, they were awarded an 1800 a.ency Advaooe­ ment. Award by PLU.

"We will gather a complete range of plants to enable researchers to identify material of any artifact in Egypt made of a plant," Ryan said. "This will be a very important reference collection for U98 by any reoi· dent or visiting researcher. It could make PLU a center for identifying these materials," he said. As another project in Egypt, Ryan and Hansen will replicate the ancient

construction of ropes and test them in an engineering lab in San Frans.isco for breaking strength. This will tell how the ropes could have been used in Egyptian engineering. Ryan said they will also examine "rob­ ber's ropes." These ropes were found in royal tombs, hung from theceiling by grave robbers and used to vault pits dug to prevent them from entering and raiding the tombs. Ryan said the ropes can be carbon dated and he hopes that this will give an accurate age oC the tombs. Ryan said he feels etrongly that this research is an important part of the university. "Any institution cannot help but be distinguished by original research."

Summer student research becoming a PLU tradition by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter When most people hearthe word "learn." they imagine the roar of II crowd. sweat clinging to tired, athletic bodies, and intense determination. But there's a team at PLU that plays ' one ofthe most challenging games around all summer and works each season in relative seclusion. No roar of the crowd is heardfrom this squad's arena. Only the dedicated drive to learn is evident. There's something special about the tradition that has fueled the success of the PLU chemiatry department summer research team, sponsored for 10 weeks each sununer for the last twenty years. The National Science Foundation funded the group in 1966'

fll'at �

and since that time, the riepallnllmt hlCl hired up to eight student researchers each summer through outside sources. "The students actually get a lot more outofit than wedo." said PLU chemistry professor Charles Anderson, "Wedo it because we enjoy it, but it's the students who are getting a head start. It's very helpful jfthe}' docideto go into graduate school or directly into the industry, " Vanous outside parties have funded the research team. including Reichhold Chemical Corporation's Northwest Divi· sion and the Robert C. Olsen Chemistry Fund, established in December of 1974 by a generous cont.ribution from a PLU alumnus in the name of the retired chemiatry professor. Arter the department promoted enough money to aupport the funding of

at least three students per summer. the first Olsen Memorial award was presented in 1979. "The primary contributors to the fund were former student researchers themselves at PLU before going onto other positions." said chemistry pro­ fessor Fred Tobiason. "We hope now that we can appeal to people interested in PLU l.O help support that fund. We have not sought money for the fund for a long time because of the building pro­ ject lof the S8.6 million Rieke Science Center facility)." Being a member of the summer research team is an experience that past members have not forgotten. "It really helped me'prepare for graduate school," explained seniot Steve "O.P." Keller, who will be doing graduate atudy in inorganic synthesis at

the Uruversity of California at Berkeley next fall. "Most of the people who do research usuaUy plan to go to medical school or graduate school. When I went to Berkeley, most people had done research. so it's really an advantage to . do it (research), ,

Marlys Nesset, a senior, says toil in the chemistry lab over I1n entire summer can actually be fun. "You really learn a lot about all the work you ha\'e to do on yOUf own; the stuff that you won't find in e Iabbook," she said. " You can really have a 10t oC fun.

Speaking with the ent.husiasm and energy of a schoolboy with a new found love. Browning demonstrates hellrl·felt excitement when explaining the subject that he has explored 80 deeply. Brownin!; will begin his book with an explanation of the invasion of Poland in 1939 and the beginning of the exter· mination of the Jews. Also in the first. part of his book. Browning will write about the Nazi demogrsphic policy �the resettling of the Jews and Poles in the Nazi reservation policy] and describe the ghettoiz.ation of Jews in Poland. He also said he will discus5 the rela­ tion5hip between the army and the Nazi occ:u : pation tldministration. Browning clearly dellCribed 5everal pres5Ures within the Nazi admini5tra· tion t.hat made their action5 seem understandable, if not partially acceptable.

Browning said he will describe the pre55ure of Hitler'5 obsession wIth creating an oll·Caucasion race. He said Hitler'! goal·setting pressure to solve the Jewish problem drove ad­ mini5trative leaders to set higher and higher goals, and for followers to outdo their 5uperiors n i order to climb the ladder. A! the Nw's began their n i vasion of European countries, the new territories became the reward for the party faithful. Through a hierarchicalselec­ tion process, Browning said the best, most faithful Nazi's were given control of areas with the biggest Jewish populations. Another pivotal point was the political pressures between the old party faithfuls and the bandwagon Nazi5. Browning said lhat because the Nazhd­ ministration had a broad support base CTossing all German classe5, there had to be something for everyone. Because all of the many promises made by the Nazi administration could not be kept, Browning explained that p5ychological rewards had to be created for the German people. lie 5aid that by lowering one c1a55 of people. the Jew5, the re5t of the nation felt uplifted and more important. . .

Unlike the government in the United States, Browning !aid Hitler's regime created the mage i of total aupport. " Hitler created the image that he i5 in­ carnate and that all Germany wa! behind him. The rhetoric W85 needed 10 keep up that image of total support.,"' he explained. Becauae of the IUIture of his ad­ ministrative policy and the image he

Students, faculty receive research g rants by Clayton Cowl

Mast staff reporter

A $15,000 grant from the Cottrell Col· lege Science Grant Program awarded to PLU biology professor Michele Crayton and his research project in colonial green algae is just one reason why the Pacific Lutheran biology department may be entering a new era of active research on campus. The grant was only one of several fiscal awards given to the univerSity this year for undergraduate research conducted during the school year and over the aummer months. "It's a, neat opportunity for the people who work in a lab because it's a chance for them to work on publishable research-notjuat a project." Crayton noted. Crayton will be examining the green alga Volvox, an organism that forms a boUoYo' ball during reproduction. He will be examining the material that holds

this blastula or baU together and predic­ ting how it will affect the cells around it. The PL U biologist will be testing a Volvox mutant donated by Robert J, Huskie of the University of Kentucky en route to understanding the structural characteristics of the adhesive materisl. PLU biology professor Arthur Gee is directing a team of researchers at the Battelle Northwest Laboratories to COil' duct a series of projects on cancer research after receiving two summer feUowships from the Northwest College and University Association for Science {NQRCUS}.

"Dr. Tang is. outside of the universi­ ty, the most well·known physicist in the department" said Harry Adams, chair of the physics department. "He's also II. very good teacher.' "He's very famous in the physics world, but he's very modest," said Mark Bowers, a graduate student at the University of CaliforruaiRiverside, who cemeto PLU tocomplete a Ph.D under Tang, Bowers s i also studying atomic molecular collion! " 1 feel very fortun8te that 1 am able to work with him ," Bowers said. Tang was invited to write a chapter n i a (our volume series entitled 1711.' theer" ofChemicalReaction /JvnamiC$, which Tang said contained selections from leading scientists in this field. When asked f i be was considered a leading scientist in this field. Tang look uncom­ fortable. "It's difficult to say. myself." Tang and Peter Toennies, a co-worker at the Marx-Planck Instiut fur Stromungsforschullg have their nume ona model called " Tang and Toennies' Potential." ., A name is just to identify something," Tang said. "h's nothing to bragabout," "The atomic potential is a description of forces between atoms and molecules. The model is a theoretical explanation about these forces," Tang said. 'I see my calling as a teacher, If a stu· dent walks in the door. I drop everything else." said Tang. who added that he is here because of the students and not the other way around. He does not have enough time to research because for research. "no amount of time is sufficient," he explained,

Tang said his research work comes from a desire to learn more and satisfy his curiosity. "And once you find a problem that you don't understand and no one else understands, you hope to understand it first," he said. " To be frank. I wish I had more time to research," said Tang who teaches fuJl­ time and has over 100 students this semester. " We all teach full-time here," Being hired as a professor and not a researcher does have an advantage for Tang. He said he is under no pressure or obligation to do research, but researches bocause he enjoys it. Tang has given talks on his research all O\'er the world, n i Canads, England. Norway. China, Taiwan, Hong Kong. and Germany, " People are interested in your work, and they want you to come so you can discuss it in person with them." Tang said . who is planning to spend the sum· mer in Germany. Tang's visit to Chengdu University n i China two years ago was instrumental in setting up the science exchange pro­ gram between PLU and Chengdu University. When a delegation of six officials from Chengdu came to Washington to visit the University of Washington and Washington State University. they remembered that a PLU professor had given lectures at their urlversity and they wanted to visit PLU. The delegation was m i pressed with PLU and an exchange program was suggested. Tang's research is funded by grants from the National Science Foundation and other research corporations. "First you must have a good idea." Tang said. After developing an idea, Tang sends a proposal to the Foundation outlining the experiment and how much it will cost. If the Foundation likes the idea. they scnd him the grant. "I'm a theoretician. Mostly I need p!lper and pencil and computer." Tang said. Most of the money he asks for is to pay students who work with him. Part of Bowers' salary is paid for by research granUl, said Tang. Tang's research room in the Rieke Science Center is different than a typical research lab. Instead of Bunsen burners. test tubes and the odor of chemicals. Tang's lab'contains a computer and stacks of paper.

Confrontation --- Campus Calendar resu lts in pr knife assault by Katherine Hedland Mast staff reporter A male PLU student was slashed in the hand during a fight with throe male non·PLU studenu in the library parking lot Saturday night. said Dan Acker. one of the students involved. Acker said the incident began when the three youths were disrupting students n i Mortvedt library. After ex· changing words and obscenities with Acker and his friend John (who re­ quested that his last name be withheldl. the three challenged Acker and John to a fight. The PLU studenUJ accepted the challenge and went outside to the park· ing lot between the library and the Ad· ministration Building. A fight erupted and tw(\ of the youths pulled out knives. Alter John's hand was slashed by one of the youths. Acker and John decided that they did not want to fight and walked away. Acka' and John walked towards the library. assuming that the others had gone, Acker said. Suddenly one of the glass doors in the entrance of the library was shattered with a rock. Acker ex· plained. The two PLU students turned to see the three youthJ n.mning away. and immediately called Campua Safety. Ron Garrett.

'comeback player of the year' "Tommy is hitting the ban very wel.l," Benson said. "It's good to have him back and doing 90 weU, I have been h:>p­ ing for the past two years we would lee the Tom Peter-lIOn that we aaw his freshman and sophommore years." Peter90n said it feels good to be back again and to be playing the number one position on a very talented team.. "All six player-s on the uaveling squad are very close, and. on any given day, any of them could play each other very competitively," Peteraon aaid. "My goal this year was t o play very competitive tennis and try to be number one." He is not a stranger to playing high ranking positions on the team. having held fifth place his freshman year and flfSt through fourth positions his 8Ophomoreyear, "There is no doubt that Tom is the unanimOUl comeback player- of the year," Benson said. CummUy a fifth-year eduation ma­ jor, Peteraon hopes to use his tennis background to coach while teaching high school IOmewhere in the Northwest.

Student coaches add dimension to kids' lives by Denise Bruce Mast reporter Il's 3 o'clock on a typical aftemoon. Many PI�U sluden15 are done with classes and are taking a break by going shopping. playing softball, throwing rays around a Frisbc-c. or catching some . with friends. Many other PLU students can be found decorated with whistles and stop­ of � watches on the fields or in the ')'ms local high schools. Pl.U students with an interest in sports and a desire to work with kids are filling both paid and \'o!untcer high school coaching positions. Bryan Stelling. hull director in Ivy, spends his afLernoons as assistant soft· ball coach at Curtis High School where h(' also studenHeaches history and business math. His responsibilities include setting up equipment, running skill drills and hit· ling practice and working with in· dividuals on dirferent aspect.s of the game. "Sports build character-being a part of that is really fun." St('lIing said. "'Thl' ('xercise. competition and tenmwork CJC' cit.es me."' Stclling believes that his attitude. en· thusiasm. and intensity make him Ii good coach. He says his approachability and people orientation make others feel comfortable around him. ''I'm the kind that can relate to the players renlly well," Stelling said. Coaches have a lot of influence on kids' lives. even more than most teachers. Stelling said. The kids can relate "to athletics and enjoy them, Stell· ing said. This allows a really good rap' port between coach and player. Stelling uses this influence to build "'character, a sense of teamwork, and , pride in themselves and their team, . not to mention a "'positive attitlide that car· ries through in all aspects of life." The coaching experience Stelling is getting should prove valuable to him in the future, as he plans to coach football while teaching social studies or psychology at the high school level.

While Stelling hits and throws to Cur· tis athletes. other PLU 'students demonstrate kicking, pitching, jumping, and hurdlir:g to athletes acros,'I lowll. At Franklin I'ierce High School. four such students. Barb Sharts, Tim Shun· non, Dean Staillbrook, and Rich Sweum, offer their expertise in various track and field events, Sharts has coached track for the pa9t three years, and also coached basketball l this year at Franklin Pierce. earier She primarily coaches the long and trio pie jumps, which she also competes in for PLU, This, along with the fact that she actually runs along with her athletes during workouts, makes Sharts a role model for the athletes. Sharts, who has coached jumpers to the state championship meet, says she gained a lot of her coaching knowledge from a former coach at her alma mater, Franklin Pierce, She works hard to improve her coaching techniques by attending coaching clinics, reading books. observ· ing olher coaches. and trying out dif· ferent things to see what works with her particular group of athletes, Coaching is a unique opportunity because you get to be at a real one-on· one level where there is II Jot of mutual respect, Sharts says . . .Kids hllve lold me stuff they wouldn't tell their parents or even their best friends," Shltrts added. Sharts describes her role as "directing already established talent."' She tries to develop their sense of responsibility, dedication, and sense of purpose, However, Shart says there are always "'kids who skip practice because they had n tanning date."' The student-coaches at i"ranklin Pierce try to make track a fun ex· perience for the athletes. "'After workouts is fun time," Sharts says, She said they often have water fights. go special places to run or have team get·togethers such as picnics. Last year, in the leam's annual "Crazy Olym. pics," the coaches allowed themselves to pose as tnrgets for the egg·toss competition,

to our age-he talks to us on our own leve1." Although some coaching postions are volunteer, many PLU students get paid for their efforts. Stelling, who volunteers, says schools need people. "'It's rewarding, even though pay is not involved. I'd recom· mend it to anybody if they like kids and like sports."' The experience that Stelling, Shorts, Shannon, Stainbrook, and many other PLU students receive by coaching high school sports will prove to be valuable, as many of them plan to coach in the future,

High school head coaches and athletes both point out the valuable contribution that PLU student-coaches give to the i volvt,d in. athletic programs they are n Franklin Pierce Head Track Coach Howard Lutton, a PLU track and foot· ball alumnus, says they "add a dimen· sian that a teacher can't." lie added that th('ir age, proximity and abimy to perform athletically gives them respect from the high school students, and a better relation ship in which tocommunicate. Franklin Pierce senior Debbie Cook, who is coached by Shannon in discuss and shot·put events, says, "He's closer

Track team focuses on tomorrow's ,-------, Sports scoreboard Western Invitational competition by Oavid Wood Ma st reporter

Looking at the team scores from last weeks Western Washington Quadrl.lngular Meet, one might get the feeling thl.lt the Lutes were still on spring vacation. Final score: Western Washington 162'/1, Simon Fraser 99%. Seattle Pacific 63, and P,L,V. 57 Th{' score can sometimes be deceiving and this one is no exception, Coach Moore expiains: "The team score is deceptive because we put our people in off events to get ready for this Saturday's very impor' tant meet up n i Bellingham:' The team was not at peak performance. however. "there were many good perfor­ mances and personal records set." In fact, twelve personal recorda were bettered, along with seven dist.p;..• qualifications and three rosen'ations 101 the national championships to be held next month in Arkansas. Getting ready for this Saturday's meet, however, was a big reason for last weeks competition. The Western Washington Invitational is probably the biggest meet of the year and is the most. mportant i event left in the Lutes regulOlr season schedule, Moore said. After this weekend only two meets separate the present Irom post season competition. "Everyone's thinking qualification, because after Saturday, there are only two dual meets left," Moore said."This will be an good opportunity, because the excellent competition will bring out the best in our athletes." , The lineup will include all of the NAIA District 1 schools. the University of Washington and two Orogon colleges outside District 1 will also be competing. For those who have already qualified for the national tournament, Saturday's meet will provide a look at many of the athletes the Lute tracksters will be bat­ tlingin post season action.

For the promising athletes who have yet to qualify. tms may be their last bid for a national championship birth. One of those athletes is Kathy Nichols. who has already qualified in the 5000 meters. but wants a spot n i the 3000 as well. Nichols goal all year has been to "run 1.1 sub 10" {minute] 3000 and she added that this "will be the meet to do it." "A lot of people haven't qualified yet, l e the so it's important to do it now whi competition's so good," said Nichols. Nichols added that the competition tms Saturday will be of stronger caliber than what the conference meet will have to offer and "with only two small meets left, this may be our last chance." Joining Nichols n i the quest for a 3000 meter qualification will be Dana Stamper and Melanie Venekamp,

seconcls, and three IhlrdS at lhe Carroo" Regatta. Winners: Men's heavy four, 6:38 (2000 meters): Men'S frosh four, 6:48.9: Women's IIgh\ lour. 7:18.5.

Lute rowing club blossoms at Daffodil regatta by Robynn Rockatad

Mast reporter The Pacific Lutheran crew team began their spring racing se8.'JOn Saturday on American Lake by pulling in three wins at the annual Daffodil Regatta. PLU, with an entry in every event, took first place honors in the men's heavy and novice four boats and the "tomen's light four. 0:1 the 2000 meter course, the Lutes matched strokes with rowing teams from Washington State, Western, Gon­ :taga, Seattle Pacific, and the University of Puget Sound. Overall, WSU was the regatta victor .....ith seven first places, The first win of the day for PLU came from II boat whose members had never rowed together (except in the morning's pre-race warmups). Sophomore Paul Stordahl, junior Matt Hensel, senior Jeff Glenn, senior Roif Agather, and sophomore coxswain Pam Drew made up the men's heavy four. Leading the entire race, they defeated second·place Western by throe seconds with a clocking of 6:38. Coach Bob Trondsen said he "u:­ peeLed the heavy four boat todo well."

Both the light and heavy eight beat.!! finished back in the pack and "have work to do," said Trondsen. The lone win for the women came in the light four, composed of sophomore Susan Donovan, sophomore Kim Apker, junior Kim Stender, senior Cari Martin, and junior coxswain Jana Paterson. Although the lady rowers led most of the way, WeSLern st.ayed at even pace with them, threntening until the very last stroke. The boat's winning time was 7:18.0, covering the 2000 meter cour!Ml. "By the time the finish carne, we weren't sure who had won," Martin said. Women'5 Coach Elise Lindberg singled out Donovan, saying she"did a nice job fllling n i for commodore Robyn Rockstad, who has teDdonitis in her wrist.'"

PLU captured one more win in the final rowing campaign of the day. They beat out second·place Gonzaga by nine seconds, the men's novice four was powered by junior Dave Komanecky. junior Jim Johnson, sophomore Paul Roland. freshman Eric Hanson, and sophomore Sttphanie coxswain Buckley. Their win {6:48) did not come lUI 0 sur­ priSE' to Trondsen, who was optimistic about the boat's chances.

The men's coach said he is looking for­ ward to the upcoming regattas which will allow the Lutes to compete in more races. '"We'll be party to a bigger regatt.a. with more events in Corvallis," Trond­ sen said, referring to tomorrow's Cor­ vallis Invit.ational regatt.a against Oregon crews on the Willarnette river. Lindberg was pleased to compete against teams that have many talented rowers, unlike last weekend's Greenlake

regatta. "We finally had some competition," LindbOl'g said. "It will make everyone set some goals and work harder next i e. " tm Lute rowers also took second place in the men's junior varsity four, junior var· sity eight, varsity eight, and women's varsity eight. Third place finishes went to the women's light eight, varsity four, and junior varsity four.

The PlU women's lightweIght·tour shell. consfstlng of (Above L·R) Robyn Rocksted, Kim Slenden, Kim Apter. carl Martin and coKSWain Jane Pat8fSC)l'l were 1986 West Coast Champions and will be pulling for the title thb year as well.

softballers get no-hitter from Schmitt

Mast reporter The PLU Womens' Softball team boa!Its a 17-2 record this se8.'JOn /lnd is 5·3 in NAIA District ) games. Over halfway through the season. the lady Lutes suffered their first losses last weekend in two great defensive bouts at Linfield. The team faced Lewis & Clark for a double header on Saturday, winning the first gume HI. Pitcher Sharon Schmitt threw a no hitter whi l e Dawn Woodward and Andy Barbier each wcnt2 for 2. Machalle Chalstrim lead the IG-O at-

t.ack on the Pioneera, allowing only three hits through seven innings. TraveJling to McMinville to face the Wildcats, the Lutes did Dot come out on the winning end of either game in the double header. Both games were defen· sive bouts lost in extra inningll, HI. The first game was once again thrown by Schmitt, who tossed a no hitLer through the seventh inning. '"That doesn't happen very often," said softball coach Ralph Weekly. With a combined total of 22 hits, PLU lost on two Wildcat walks and hits to bring the sole run across thc plate. The second game against Linfield .

followed the same scenario. With Chalstrim pitching, the Cats scored once again on a series of walks and hits in the eighth inning. We kept hitting right at them, Weekly said. The lady Lutes returned to face their cross town rival UPS on Tuesday. In a double header split, the Lutes brought their season record lo3·) against UPS. PLU lost the fllst game 3-0 behind the pitching of Chalstrim. UPS did not score until the seventh and final inning. In the second game the Lutes came out on top, 4-1 behind the pitching of Schmitt.

Pesticide may have caused UC employee's illness by Sonja Ostrom

Mast staff reporter

As a result of several allergic reac­ tions of a Universit.y Center employee this seme9tcr, Food Service is changing its insecticide sprays, said Bob Torrens, director of Food Services. The employee, who requested her name be withheld. suffered her most re­ cent reaction about three weeks , said Dan Coffey, director of Health Services. "The employee stayed home for a few days because we knew they were going to sprlly,"Coffey said. "When she came in she swrted having symptoms that seemed to be directly related to the in· sectspray," he said. Her symptoms included agitation, ex· cessive fluid production, a quick heart rate. and an acute stimult.ation of the nervous system, Coffey said. She was hospit.alil.ed overnight in Madigan . Hospital, he said. Jim Phillips, director of the physical plant. said that the cause of her reac­ tions is difficult to determine because she has been bothered under several dif­ ferent conditions. "The insecticide seemed to bother­ her," Phillips said, "but she also had violent reactions under nonnal condi­ tione. wben tbere wa.a DOth.iac unusual in the building ud wben the buildins had DO inaecticide or janit«ial

County sheriff seeks suspect in homicide case The Pierce County Sheriff's Of­ fice has established a composite picture of a possible suspect n i the death of Denige L. Sallee, 17, of Puyallup, whose body was found March 29 in a wooded area of Parkland. According to Lt. Edmunds of the sheriffs office, the picture is a likeness of il person Sallee was last seen talking to before disappear­ ing from Paradige Village Bowl, 12505 Pacific Avenue. on Jan. 25 at appro1imately I am. She was reported missing three days later. said Capt. Mark French of the sheriff's depart­ ment. According to French, it was not uncommon for the teenager to stay away from home for a few days at a Lime. Her body was discovered in s rugged &.rea near the 12100 block of Pacific Avenue behind Stella's Flowers, 12169 Pacific Avenue, by s 7-year-old-boy who was looking for returnable bottles. According to the sheriff's department, the suspect has been described 8S a white male in his late teens to early 20s, 5 feet 10 in· ches tall, medium build, ash-brown hair, light mustache and light eyes.

According to reports, he gave his name as Tim and said he had a blue 1969 Camaro, although no vehicle was actually seen. Edmunds said that no suspects are currently being questioned. Anyone who may have seen a person matching this description should contact the Pierce County Sheriffs Office.

Ch i nese study abroad program ready for fal l by Becky Krsmer Mast reporter Americans who fret over differences and inconveniences in Chinese lifestyle whi l e visiting China do not have a good time and aren't good ambassadol"S, said Judy Carr, associate dean of special IIC8demic programs. Carr spent three weeks this March in China working out the final details of an exchange program between Chengdu University of Science and Technology and PLU. This fall 20 students will have the op­ portunity to study the Mandarin language, Chinese culture, and organic chemistry at Chengdu University. This program is unique because a PLU profe.ssor will accompany the group and teach the acience class in English and the program will include six weeks of travel, said Kwong-Tin Tang, a PLU physiCS professor and co-direct« of the program.. Unlike the Chinese exchange program PLU has with Zhongshan Ulliverllity n i Guangshou, China, which focuses on language and cuJture, the Chengdu pro­ gram includes science. Tang said this is a plus for science majors who wish to study abroad but do not want to spend an extra semester or year in college to make up the classes they would have missed while abroad.

Rieke breaks tie i n d ivestment vote FACULTY, from page 1

Rieke voted to postpone the discussion indefinitely for " public rellllions" reasons, he said. "I thought the 46 who voted against discussion of the resolution were against recommending divestiture," Rieke lAid, "and the 46 who favored it could not be 88 euily interpreted." Rieke said he thought that if the resolution was voted on more than 46 would vote no. &0 he broke the tie (,() "avoid an undesirable motion without faong the embarassment of hav­ ing it defeated." he said. Had the resolution been voted on. and failed, there would have been 8n opportunity for PLU to be interpreted as being for apartheid, Rieke said. The maker of the resolution, Stivers. said that Rieke's reasoning for po�tponing the discuasion indefinitely based on the assumption that the resolution would fail was "speculation." and suggests that some people could not be persuaded in a discussion of the resolution. "It's strange in a Cnristian context when we decide weighty ethical matters on the basis of public relations," Stivers said. "What is most troublesome to me," said Jack Berm· ingham. professor of history, " is that an institution that prides itself to be a small liberal arts community suppogedly encourages inquiry and debate and in a point in time we look at an issue in which reasonable people might differ. we were unwilling to discuss it." In an environment that is supposedly to promote intellec· tual curiosity and thinlcing citizens, we did not set II very good cumple. Bermingham ssid. "I( would be a mistake to say it s i irresponsible to not take II stand on the issue," said George Arbaugh, professor of philosophy. 'There are times when issues are important

enough that it ia a good policy to take a stand collectively 88 an institution," he said, but there are arguable reason.s not to. "There are some who don't believe in apartheid wbo also don't believe in boycotting companies that provide jobs for blacks-it's not clear tb.It diveetment is going to have a good errect," Arbaugh said. "And aome queelion whether it is a good idea for people in institution! like universities to in­ volve themaelves with political s!u(!8. i Individually, they all get involved, but ",hether they should involve themselves all memberll of 8 body on political or moral issues is arguable," he lAid. Arbaugh said tbat divestment is an issue on which respon­ sible people may differ. Even if they are in agreement against apartheid_ they may disagree on how to approach it. Sociology professor Richard Jobst said that he voted to postpone the discussIon n i definitely. "I 'll sign a petition that we should disinvest," Jobst said, "but I will not commit my colleagues. They have to be there to vote for themselves." Jobst said there are people on that retirement plan that are not faculty, such as contract staff, and they have the same right to decide where their money goes. "I'm opposed to the small minority deciding for the ma­ jority:' Job!t said. Bermingham said that proposing the resolution was wor­ thwhile because it caused students to talk about apartheid and divestiture. "If the faculty won't debate it, maybe the students will ponder the is!me and how it affects the world around them," Bermingham said. Rieke said that since discussion on the resolution was postponed indefinitely, it will not be discussed again, unless a new resolution is proposed.

However, Carr said. interested students must rlTSt honestly ask themselves whether they could suc­ cessfully adapt to the Chinese lifestyle. "Students should realize that not everyone should go to Ch.ina." she said. Flexibility and a sense of humor are neces!ities for getting along in a culture so different from America, she added. "If you take life too seriously and let the little things really annoy you, it gets in the way of the experience," Carr said. Unheated buildings, different foods, and a smaller amount of personal space were some of thc things Carr had to ad­ just to on her trip. Since the climate of Chengdu is mi l d. building! are built without heating systems. Students must be prepared to wear heavy clothing, bring long johns and to get used to taking notes with gloves on, Can said. Eating Chinue cuisine was 8 case of "mind over matter" for Carr. During her trip, CUT sampled chicken feet, sea slugs. eel snake. sinew ltendonsl ste.-, tripe (stomach lining), and other animal innerds. "They don't throw away anything:' Carr said "And everything , is fresh, nothing i! canned. . "Student.s will feel the need evCfy few weeks to rush out to a tourist hotel and buy an American hamburger," ahe said. Carr said one of the biggest ad­ justment.s was not having her own per­ sonal space. Even on the streets at nigbt there was that sense of being in a crowd, she said. "If I really wanted to get student.a ready Ifor the Chinese cuJture), I'd empty a broom closet-and have about 25 of them mill around it," she said. Charles Anderaon, wbo visited Chensdu laat spring with PLU Presi­ dent William Rieke and Dr. Tang. said the university is like a little city in it.8elf. The facuJty, their families and atudent.s all live on campus, Anderson said. The campus abo contains some shops, • "miniature Pike Street Market" and thr-ee to four small factories which pro­ vide practical work experience for students," he said. Cbengdu University currently baa 6,500 students and 3.000 facuJty and staff members. Chineae universities have a "different wily of. defining faculty," Anderson said. Included in the total number of facul­ ty an junior faculty members working on gradullte degrees, doing basic in­ structing or researching, he said. Part of the e:xchange plan is to have junior faculty members come to PLU to study. "They will come here to perf�t their English, get accustomed to American culture and move on to graduate ,. school. Anderson said. "It's a win/win situation for both schools," Carr said.

Presidential Forum: Western tech nology and the Th ird World FeabJred keynote speakers a t last Tuesday's third Presidential Forum ad­ dressed the issue of Western Technology lind Third World Develop­ ment. Michael Poellet of the religion department and histol"}' professor Ed· win Clausen each led one session of the third and final day·long Presidential Forum hela in Chris Knutzen Hall. Each of the three forums concentrated its discussion on technology; the first one in the fall of 1985 on n i formation technology, the interim 1986 session on medical technology and the final spring

addresses pointed at Western world technology and third development. Material from each of these forums will be combined into classes to be taught next year, said University Presi· dent William Rieke. "The plan is to take the substance of these topics presented and n i corporate them into classes," Rieke said. "Whether or not we hold (additional) public forums in this format will have to be decided. Personally, I'd like to see one or two a year."

u.s. technology 'outcome

of rational ized bigotry' by Clayton Cowl Mast 5tall reporter Michael PoelJet, PLU religion pr� fessor, addressed the problems of technological development in third world nations and delved into the forma· tion of liberation theology in the fu-st of two major speeches at the Presidential Forum. In his talk, Poellet discussed -the underdevelopment of Central America and its dependency on modern coun· tries. He said their reliance on the ' Ieading powers is causing a dangerous dependency. Poellet, who has been studying the development of 'J'hird World nations fOr over 10 years, pointed out reasons for many socio-economic problems in Latin America, then shifted. gears and discuss· ed liberation theology, a Central American reJigious. movement initiated in .tqe 19601!'. . Technology cannot be a powerful and auwnomous force, Poellet said. "The 'invisible hand' of the free market exercises a firm grip n i determin· ing the !.iees and values that technology has," Poellet explained. "Nor is the market as 'free' as one might think. The relationship between the developed and. developing countries is often one of a set and coercive markel," he said. The United Swtes' desire for technology "nlarginalizes not only cer· tain human interests and concerns, but it radically marginalizes many human beings as well," Poellet said. " The United StoWs can win wars, but can it win revolutions. too?" he asked. referr· ing to a statement made by the conser· votive Henry Cabot Lodge in 1958. Poellet said dependence not only has been fostered by economic interests and technological advances, but it is "an outcome of the rat.ionalized prejudice and bigotry of North Americans and Northern Europeans toward their southern neighbors." He accused the United States of con· trolling prices to improve their own in· terests rather than helping Latin American countries struggling for their own technological development. "Through our aggre�ive policy of development and stability, the U.S. has virtually destroyed the economic vitali· ty and independence of these (Central Americanl nations," said Poellet. "The structural consequences of poverty, dic· tatorship, militarization and out of country capital investment could not be thwarted by thc Good Neighbor poicy. l but were strengthened and encouraged by it. The development and evolution of private enterprise and economic wellbe­ ing was structurally impo�ible.·' Poellet then turned his emphasis 1(I what solutions are avai18ble to the peo. pie of these l.atin Aml!rican nations. He probed the ideologies of a third world religious movement called libera· tien theology a!S a possibility of hope for the many poor lind oppresst.-d people of Central America. Liberation theology was developed after a groUII of bishops met in Medellin. Columbia in 1968. The movement focus· ed on energizing the poverty·striken and encouraging them to become a catalyst

for the restructuring of their society, ac· C()rding w Poellet. The church, PoelIet, said, has always "taken sides" for the wealthy. the powerful and the oppressors. Now, as the church seemingly declared liberat.ion in their views, is also changing sides and Central American government.s don't like it. "This is a controversial and politically c:a:plosive move," Poellel said. "No longer are the valuea of the rich and powerful simply associated with the values of what is proper conduct. nor do the poor scorn their position and wish 1(I attain the values of the rich. The inter· na1.iz.ation of the structures and ethos of dependency is broken. Docility is not the highest peasant virtue."

Liberal arts diversity is questioned by Kristl Thorndike Mast neW5 editor

"It has been an afternoon of animals." said Ucivertlity President William Rieke to a crowd of more than 300 PLU facul· ty, staff, and student.s at last Tuesday's second session of the Presidential Forum. Centering on the topic "Western Technology and Thirrl World Develop­ ment," the speakers talked of donkeys. elephants, monkeys, lions, foxes, leopards, alligators. rhinoceroses, and buffalos to address the issue of liberal art.s education and the Third World. Central speaker, PLU history pr� fessor Ed....in . Clausen's address, "The Dead Donkey s i Still Alive: Liberal Arts Education and the Third World, "'came from a sixteenth century Frenchman .....ho was also critical of the education system of his time. Clausen reJated the story of satirist Francois Rabelais who said people were taught 'facts, but when asked what these facts meant. it was "like trying to get a fart out of a dead donkey." Continuing the discussion ....ere . PLU history professor Jack Bermingham who "pretty well covered the waterfront (animals)," Rieke said, and Gundar King, dean of the School of Busine� Ad· ministraion. who talked of monkeys, donkeys. and bellydancera. Bruce Deal, ASPLU president, said he considered the forum a "definite suc' cess" and felt it was worth cancelling

classes for such an event. " 1 was impressed by the quality of the presentation," Deal said, and added

that he thought the forums are a necessary part of a liberal arts education. Using China as a case study, Clausen addressed the m i portance of liberal arts education and the Third World. He focused on Chinese students who came to the United States between 1909 and 1950 to receive an education they believ· ed wouJd enable them to save their nation. "If we look over history ....e . cannot help but acknowledge that education was present.ed by the more ad\'anced and imperialist nation!S as a pre�equisite for technological development and technology transfer. " Clausen said. "It was also believed by the Western imperialist nations that a particular kind of education would help lift Third World nations out of their primitive state, while at the same time meeting the specific requirements and needs of the m i perialist nations," he said. Only when China be<:ame like the United States, the Chinese believed. become it could independent, technologically advanced, and more human, Clausen said. In the progress of receiving American education, they changed. China, but not in the way they anticipated. Clausen said. The Chinese came to believe in liberal arts education and American values, h� !lBid. "Our education system carries values which may be inappropriate for other cultures. Clausen said. He oH..red historical examples from the 19205 showing how the Western ideas that the Chinese students took to their country helped create some of the conditions of revolution in China. "Liberal arts education in the United St.ates," Clausen said. "perpetuates myopia and does not open the windows of understanding, critical e"alution. and empathy." He said that the liberal arts education today promotes myths about "the grandeur of the American social justice (system] and the universal goodness and applicability of our form of democracy and of our capitalist economic system. To improve the liberal arts education. Clausen proposed the United States not only "dramatically increase" its offer·

ings in Third World studies and Third World languages, but make them man' datory and taught from the critical perspective of the people in those nations. Clausen also said, "Courses should discuss the idea that technology is value

free. but what transmits it is not." Liberal arts must teach thal "technology is a tool to be used by Third World countries as they deem ap· propriate," Clausen said. Right now, "the world resembles a beach after the tide has roceeded-strewn with what the West has floated in." Clausen has traveled extensively through Asia. including nine trips to China. His n i formation is based on historical evidence and his own orib-inal research. Bermingham continued the discussion b�' telling a famous Kenyan African na· tionalist's story about thl! hierarchy in the jungle kingdom to iIIustrllte the liberal arts education in relation to the Trurd World. King, the final responda�t, said, "Our learning is a bag of bits and pieces. We mistake this bag of biLS and pieces for a bag of treasure. " To transfer technology ....e . need links-people to people and na· tion to nation. he said. "We try to help the .....orld. but we don't know the world." The additional quotes were gathered by reporters Kathy IIjelmeland and Becky Kramer.

"There were three of us who competed again thia year and we all moved up a notch." Linterman said. The Miss Wenatchee pageant is one of many local competitions affiliated with the Miss Washington pageant. It in· cludes swimsuit, evening gown. talent. and interview competitions. Winners of the local pageants go on to compete in the Miss Washington competition. "It takes a lot of guts to stand up there-especially in swimsuits," Linter­ man said.

Donations to PLU leap 20 percent by Emily Morg_n

Mast staff reporter

TNa pa!!t year{84-86) the number of people and bwine!!aes that make momitari donation!! to PLU increased 20 percent from the previous year (83-84), said Luther Bekemeier, vice . president for development at PLU. To indicate the growth in donations PLU haa experienl:ed recently, Bekemeier noted that in 1980 the number of PLU donors stood at 3,365. but last year 8,345 donor!! ccntributed jU!!t above 14 million. "Without donors, tuition would be 20 percent higher, "Bekemeier said. "More and more people are seeing that they ought to support their school." Beke.meier said. "I also think that, in general, charitable giving is on the rue acrosa the United States." The number of non-alumni donors, or "friends of the unlVeraity," increased 29 percent in the past year and 84 percent in three years. The number of businesses con­ tributing to the school increased 24 per­ cent in 1985 and an overall of 84 percent in three years. A 9 percent Increase in alumni dona­ tions (including the aenior gift) was recorded for the past year and up 66 per­ cent In tbelast three years. Though a large number of donations are !!pecified for use only in a particular department or program at PLU, dona­ tion!! alao help !!upplement every stu­ dent's tuition. One way the development office con­ tacts regular and prospective donors s i through a telemarketing program. Dur­ ing the school year, 25-30 students spend a little over two hours a night Monday through Thursday evel.ingS making calls to alumni and non-alumni for pledge!! to the school Jon Dahlstrom. assistant to the Development Office and a senior major­ n i g in political science, aupervises the university's telemarketing program. "This year 35 percen� of the pledges from alumni are donors who have never given before, and 32 percent of our total pledge!! received this year alone are from brand new donors." Dahlatrom said. So far, according to Oahlatrom, a total of 7,500 completed I:8lls have been made since September. Some 28,000 calls (in­ cluding wrong numbers and huay signal) i that time have been made by students n period. Dahlstrom said the group of callers . ccnaiata mostly of freahman !!tudents. Since the job ia demanding and many !!tudents drop out bec.auae of a heavy "burn out" factor.

"The idea is to honor students and thank employers" who hire them, said Beth Ahlsb'om, IISsist.ant to the director in Career Services. In addition. PLU Career Services will be having an "appreciation party" for all student employees on campus. The party will be hosted by the Alum· ni House, ResidentiaJ Life, Food Ser· vice. Campus Safety. the Physical Plant, the Office for Development, and The Ma.st. According to Ahlstrom, there will be sufficient cake to reed sbout 500 people. She also emphasized that the party will al&O be planned and sponsored by Kaaren Roe of Financial Aid. as well as Career Services. Ahlstrom said that during the 1984-85 employment period. nearly $2 million was earned by work·study and nonwork· study students on campus. Figures for the year-tcHiate. starting from June 1, are $831.590 earned. She said that 1.636 positions have been filled on-campus since last June. Acccrding to AhI!torm. PLU employs more atudents than most schools of comparable site.

Chengdu Univemty is one of 36 key universities in China selected y the government for special funding to help it expand. Rieke said he returned from China "culturally broadened and educated" but warned that Americans who visit China must "go with the idea that everything will be dif(erenL" Rieke said he was esped.ally surpriaed at the contrasts between Eastern and Western China. He found the cities of El{Lltern China large, bustling, and modern, but as he came inland. Western influeDcedecreased.

Middle College preps incoming student for college by MIriam Bacon

Mast staff reporter Middle College students get a head IIt.art in college by attending an inten· sive and cohMive college preparatory courae which helps them adjust to university life. said Rick Seeger, direc· tor of advising. "They simply don't have the scholastic and 80cial problems that somt .. times mar a freshman year," said program coordinator Judy Can-. "By the rant day of the fall 88mester, OUT young men and women know the n i s and outs of how to survive at a university," she said. Middle College, held each summC!'r, began in 1977 to assist high school graduat.es whose grades are hindering their college admission, average atudents who want to improve academic weaknesses and college freshmen who need remedial work in certain academic ...... "It's a live-in six week intensive pro­ gram that combines regular collego coUTees," Seeger said. In addition to tbe study skills oouree that each student must take, they may chooge three or four courBeS from among . College Basic. Writing Skills, (BASIC), math, . Fundamen· i . and Human

The wgt!!t number of students come to Middle College becauee their grades in high school are hindering their college admis.sion and they need some extra help to succeed in college, Can- said. "Most of these student.s did not apply themselves in high school. They have not really worked to their potential and that is what we're trying to do at Middle College," CarT said. PLU freshmen Mike Maybay and Brian Lander attended Middle College because their high school grades were not "good enough" to be admitted to PLU.

"Middle College gave me some college experience in studying and what to ex­ , pect in clelle". . Maybay said. Lander said he found the fall semester to be a lot easier than the summer session. Some students attend Middle College as a prerequ isite for admission to PLU. Freshman Robert Sim was advised by the Of6c:e of Admissions to attend Mid­ dle College. If be did well in the program he would not have to start college on academic probation in the fall. A stu­ dent is put on academk probation if his or her's grade point average is below 2.00.

Can- said that student.s from univer· sities without comparable programs also come to PLU for Middle College. ",,"flerona year I felt I still needed it," saia sophomore Betsy Robinson, who enrolled n i the program after her first year at PLU. Robinson was unable to at· tend the program before her freshman year because of ranandal dilraculties. Robinson is unable to read because she suffers from fOUT separate learning disabilities ""hich affect the way she sees letters and symbols and ocpnius thoughts. Her sense of hearing is �en developed, however, which enables her to use a tape recorder to collect class notes. s

This year Robinson spends less time with a tape recorder. She noW' has a classmate take notes and then produce an audio tape. Full·time tutors are available to live with the Middle College participants to provide intense help and guidance. Senior Ellie Long, an English major, tutored becaU98 of the opportunity to work with a few n i dividuals intensely. she said.

it's time to talk divestment Those attending Tuesday's Presidential Forum were told that a liberal arts education promotes the open discussion of diverse Ideas. Last week faculty members, however, refused to even discuss one of the more volatile moral and social Issues of our time: divestiture as a solution to the crimes of apartheid (see relared srory. page 7). Opponents of the proposal to discuss divestment of the faculty and staff pension fund, Initiated by religion professor Robert Slivers, have cited several reasons why such a roposal shouldn't be discussed. They have argued that such a decision should not be made by the faculty for the other university employees; Ihat divestment may not be a realistic solulion for the problems of apartheid in South Africa; that apartheid is a moral issue while divestment is a political solution; and that the faculty shouldn't have been expected to vote on divestment when many members may not be prepared to take a well·lnformed stand on Ihe Issue. Thus, following a tie vole which was broken by President Rieke; the faculty assembly officially opted to postpone discussion of divestiture "Indefinitely." It seems that a number of faculty members have missed the point of Dr. Stivers' proposal. It was to discuss divestiture, nol to make an ultimatum on the Issue. PLU claims 10 offer a strong liberal arts education, and instructors here are expected to be committed to the liberal arts philosophy. How are we 10 perceive such a commitment when faculty members were unwilling to even discuss the issue of divestment? PLU's faculty, students and regents should be exsrclslng the liberal arts philosophy by openly questioning apartheid, divestiture, and how this university can deal directly with these Issues. Although the faculty has yet to discuss these topics, students should be concerned enough with �partheid and divestment to promote discussion. Only after this university openly discusses the moral and social Issue of apartheid divestment will It be able to address the actual question of whether PLU should divest.

Terrorism: a game two can play by Mark Schroeder Mast columnIst From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli. Up until this week. most of you gentle readers would pro­ bably have missed the "What country's capital is Tripoli?" question in Trivial Pursuit. Now, most of you know the answer is Libys. Libya is the place where United States bombers, in retaliation for a bomb blast that killed an American man, killed an estimated 100 people. The first blast was reportedly ordered by Libyan leade­ CoL Moammar Khadafy. The reaction to the United States at. tack has been diverse, to say the leut. Most Americans seem to take an almost Rambo-like pride in the fact that "we showed 'em." I heard a song on the radio the other day, sung to tbe the tUDe of Lady Madonna by the Beatles. This is just one verse.

Vicente learned. as did Kim and the rest of the corps. what John Konne preached: no man is an island; one man's death diminishes all. The corps members decided. after vicente's testimonial, to raise some money for the people of EI Salvador. Sometimes you wonder how people ha...e anything in common.

Three venerable music institutions

Wednesday for an even· ine; of the music of George Frederick Handel 8.Od Benjamin Britten. PLU's Choir of The West will present their rmal concert of the year in perfor­ mance with the Northwest Chamber Or­ chestra at Tacoma's Pantages Centre at Sp.m. The orchestra will be conducted by Heiichiro Ohyama with guest conductor Richard Sparks, director of the Choir of the West. The concert will begin with the Nor· thwest Chamber Orchestra perfOrming Handel 's Concerto Grosso, Opu.s 6, No.

The Choir of the West then will sing with the orchestra, Cantata Miserico... diu.m, written by Britten. The piece features two guest soloists, baritone Erich Psrce from the Sesttle Opera and 11 member of the voice faculty at PLU, and tenor Brother Aelrid Woodard, a teacher in the music department at St. Martin's College and a monk of the St. Benedict Order.

But this will not be the first roUabora· tion between the musical groups. :"'st year the 15·member Northwest Chamber Orchestra and PLU's Choir performed J. S. Bach's Mass in B Mirwr both at PLU and at St. Mark's Cathedral in Seattle. The two groups decided to combine again because it is "mutually desirous for both." said David Robbins, Chair of the PLU Music Department. They chose the Pantages because of ita "splendor" and a "desire to make the event a special occasion for all of Tacoma," he continued. The Choir performed at the National Convention of MUsic Teacher's National Association (NTNAI earlier this spring. They were the only collegiate group in· vited toattend, said Robbins. The Choir of the West has "8.0 amaz· ing variety of ound under Mr. Sparks," said Robbins. Admission to the Wednesday night event is $5 for students and senior citizens and 510 for the general public. Tickets are available at the UC Informa· tion Desk Ilnd at all Ticketmaster outlets.

The cost of ope:rating KPLU·FM, PLU's public radio station, 24 hours per day, seven days per week comes to about $1 per hour, said Dean Zuch. the station's development director. So station personnel will encourage listeners to sponsor at least one $60 hour of program during the spring fund drive beginning today. The station hopes to raise at least $88,000. For that to happen 2,000 pe0ple would have to call and pledge at least $44. The average pledge during last 0c­ tober's fund drive WI!II almost 146 but leas than 2,000 people pledged to the station. The spring drive usually receives a better reapon.!MI than the fall altl!ouP Ies8 than 10 percent of thoee who listen to KPLU contribute monetarily, said Zuch. Listener support i.e becoming a more important part of the station's operating budget, be said. Although the majority of financial support for KPLU comes from the university. about 45 per­ cent of the station's budgeted income 19 from li9tener contributiontl. The pledge drive will last for the next eigbt days, said Zuch, the longest fund drive in the station's history. During that time world relmown jau; musicians who live in the Seattle area and local businesa people will be on the air asking listeners to contribute. Musicans such all Ernestine Anderson, Don Lanphere,

Bud Shank. Danny Ward, and Walt Wagner are some of those scheduled to help with the drive. Zuch said he would like to see more weekend listeners contribute. Although fewer people listen on the weekend, Zuch said there is still an untapped audience. He said the recently added Weekend Edition news program shou1d increase the number of pledge9 during its time slot. 9a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturday. Premium9 are offered for those who pledge certain dollar amounts during the fund drive. Some of tbe8e gifts, call· ed Great Escapes, are donated by local botels and inns. These are available for a '260 pledge and usually include two nights lodging plua meals. Hotels in Seattle, Oregon, and British Columbia are just a few of those pUticipating, A special Great Escape will be availahle during this fund drive for a 1350 dona· tion. The package n i cludes lodgi.ng, gourmet. meala, and horseback riding at the Winthrop Country Chalet in Win­ throp, Waahington. Zuch said the number of pledges received during certain times generally correlates with the number of people. that the Arbitron radio ratinga service indicate9 are listening during the :lame period.

Baseballers sw�p doubleheader from Oregon by Mike Condardo

Mast staff reporter

H there was one thing the Pacific Lutheran baaeball team did not lack Wednesday it was hitting. The Lutes un1eashed. a potent hiltins attack. coupl­ ed that with a pair of atrong pitching performanoea, and PLU was off and running aa they trounced the University of Oregon Ducks 11-5 and 9-4 in 8 doubleheai:ier. The LutM sent 12 batters to the plate in the third inning and scored eight times to capture an early 10-2 lead. Leading 2-1, John Doty led off with a sinsle. foUowed by Jerry Lar80n's aingl.e, moving Doty tothird. After Tim Engman walked. Dave Ericksen smuhed a deep fly ball to center. which wu flagged down by Oregon, but allowed Doty to ecote. Todd Ellis singled to reload the bases. Singles by Todd Jewett, Dennis Bloom, as well as Doty and I...snon (their second of the inning) accounted for the hits that aUowed 11 runnerllll to reach base in the third. Oregon whittled away at the lead. scoring once in the fourth and sixth inn­ ings, but the pitching of frosh Travis Nelson and the relief appearance of Jim Lorenz IIIIhut down the Ducks hitting. In the second game, Dan Ander80n pitched the Lutellll to victory. David Hillman had a perfect hitLing affair in the twinbill going 4 for 4. John Doty went 3 for 4 in the seoond contest, 1ICOrin& three runs. . PLU's victories raised thei overall record to 12·9, 8·2 in NAIA play and 4-l in the Northwest Conference standinp. PLU won four of five games over the �l!'f"8'" (their only loss w.. s a 9-7 �. sion at Pacific in 13 inninp) with the Lutes pitdting COfTIsleading the way. 10 their game against Seattle Univer­ sity, frt!1lhman Sterling Stock hurled a three hitter u the Lutes won 14-2. In PLU's 7·212-0 sweep of Pllllcific, Scott Stebbins tosaed a one hitter n i the fuat game, and Jim Lorenl; threw a two hitter in the &eCond, lesving a stlO.lg im­ pression of thllll staff on head coach LanyMal1lhall.

"It is hard to improve on a three hit­ ter. two hitter and one-hitter in one week." MllnIhalI said. "We felt. going in­ to the season, that pitchingaod defenae would be our strengths. It's probably been a long time 8i.nce PLU baa had three straight complete gamee from its pitchera." Stebbins, a IJenior submariner on the staff, is 4-1 on the lJeuon and has gone

tlla distance live times with his only loss being . 2-l heartbreaker at Washington State. Lorenz victory against Paci6c was his flnt PLU 8hutout. The games against Oregon did not ac­ count fOf the ftnlt breakthrough of the Lutell hitting capacity. PLU has been ewingill8 the bat! well all season. The team 18 led in hitting by aecond bueman Gregg Leach, who is batting a aolid .S96, followed by desipated hitter

Pitch.- MacheUe Cha.lstrom abo boasta an 8-2 record. with a 1.38 ERA. Leading the hitting corps for the Lutee is Dawn Woodward. currently batting at a .463 clip, which Weekly says is "phenomenal for fut-pitch."

Hill, with 12 RBI's and Waterworth, who is hitting .400 are also major hitting contributon. Even with this caliber of offensive firepow«", Coach Weekly points to the team's defense, along with pitching, as the keys to their suoeess. "The left side

of our defense has been phenomenal. weekly said." "With Hill at third hue. Kvale at abort stop. Dianne Burette in left field and Lisa Owens in center field, a hit IIIIOftbd doMn't get very far." Although there sre many standout iII­ dividuals on the women's lIOftbd tam. Weekly recoanizu the 1IIItr'ength of the team's depth. "We have a very eolid bench.. I would DOt feel bad playing any oftbe 15 playenon tbe rollt.-." Weekly reported that pitching co.ch Tom Tompkina and iofielding coach

Dave Zine give the team valuable exper­ tise which "has greatly contributed to the team's prosperity." The team, which was undef6llted until last WeNt'lIII three-game loaing streak, does not aee the losses as 8 setback. "In the three 10S8es, all of whi� ,..ere shutouts, we made IIOlid contact with the ball but just couldn't find a gap," Weekly said. "I'm confident the team will regain their run·producing ability as we approach the crudal part of our 9Chedule." The players proved their coach right by pounding out nine hits in a .-0 win against arch rival UPS ,..hich shattered the loaing streak and gave them a three out offour series edge over UPS. In that game, catcher D.J. Reed went 3-f0r-4 and Kvale went 2·for-2 driving in all four runs. The geason outlook is positive for the Lute IOftbaUers. who are working bard toward earning a play-off berth. " I think we'U do very well for the rt!1lt of the season," Weekly said. "I hsve a lot of confidence in their ability to perform."

Touching bases

toumam�c

by Jimmy Brazil Masl sporlsedltor PL U's men'a sports bring images of an inspirational baJd man cheering from the sidelines of a gridiron battle, or a flock of Runnin' Lutes shuffling around a basketball court. An image moat pe0ple are not aware of involves men's volleyball players setting, bumping and spiking, something that the PLU volleyball club-team hal been doing for five years, The PLU men's volleyball club oom' petes in the United States Volleyball Association !USVBA). The volleyballers compete against other univeraities and local clubs n i the Western Wuhington vicinity. PLU men's volleyball coordinator· player Jonas Dejuz.man played three years of high school volleyball in the Phillipines. As a Lute, Dejuzman heard about the club and decided to join. "Volleyball has never gotten good publicity in the United St.ates. which is why it isn't a PLU tradition," Dejuzman ,.;d. Dejuunan felt this season's squad was loaded witb raw talent but lacked the dedication and desire necessary for a high·powered and u:plosive team. "Everyone Ion the teamJ has good lateral quiclcneu and a high vertical jump but lacked. dedication which meant only about four people ahowed up for practices regularly," said Dejuunan. PLU will undoubtedly retain a club in the near future because no NAIA school has a men'a volleyball team to their credit: The NCAA bas a radically limited number of teams, most of them being in California. The PLU team traveled to Spokane, Highline (twice), and Bellevue (RegionallJ) in the 1986 campaign. Although "none of the matches went well the team played very good," Dejuz­ man said. "We didn't have the knockout punch," Dejuzman said. "We would get ahead of teams and they consiste:Dtly came back and beat us." DejUloman attributes this to lack· of preparation among PLU volleybaDera. The team'lI highest finish was a fiftb place notching at the HighliDe

The Lute voUeybaUer� will be losing a host of athletes to graduation this year, but "if we get a good recruitinBye8T, the volleyball club will continue at PlU," Dejuunan said. The 1985-86' team members include Jonas Dejuunan (sophomore), Mike Carlaoo Hoff (senior), Doug (sophomore), Rusty Carlson (seniorl, Mott Ible (senior), Steve Rozier Gonules Ale,; (sophomore), (sophomore), Shawn Morton (freshman), and Scott Mun (junior). A shining star on the volleyball squad was Gonzales, who played the posi. ti;)n of sett.e:r because of his be.ight advantage. Because volleyball was invented in the United States� Dejuunan said it ahould be made into an American tradition. Dejuunan said the Europeans in­ novated the sport and made it an n i ter­ nationally oompetitive sport." The Europeans were smart because they took up the sport and perfected it," Dejuzman said. The United States men's and. wo:nen's gold medals in volleyball at the l� Summer Olympiad bave helped the sport to gain recognition.

Recently, the men's team appeared in the Seattle Coli.aeum. taking on the Soviet Unioo'a perenillal powerhou8e Red Army squad in a demonstration match. The match set a new U.S. atten· dance record for a volleyball mat.cb. Dejuunan envisions the sport of volleyball ' increasing at PLU because "people are becoming more educated and u:posed to it." He added that "many students lat PLU) have the athletic ability but can't apply it to a sport." He seel! volleyball as a great 0p­ portUnity to "use their skilla and

Wester sets new javelin record, named Lute Athlete of the Week by D..,.. Wood Mast reporler The PLU track team travelled to Bell­ inbham Saturday and competed in one of the biggest and most important ml.>els of the season, walking away with four wins, D school record, four places and scvernl district and national qualify· ingtimes. The Lutes ....ere . planning on being challenged in order to achieve their best times of the year at the Weatern Washington Invitat.ional and in many evenLs thot is exactly what happened. Cilrol Wester hod her best javelln throw ever. !letting a school record with a winning I.O$S of 151·3. Erin Wickham ran a lifetime best, win­ ning the IO.OOO-meter run with a time of 38:04_ Denise Bruce look first pl..ace in the high jump with a leap of 5-6. This week's PLU Athlete of the Week is Carol St.enul. who improved on her previou.s best in the shot·put by three feet with a 3S-2 launch. Several Lute trackst.ers qualified for post.aeason competition. one of the main

objectives for meet. Karen Bell qualified for the national meet. by running her quickest time of the year in the 4GO-meter hurdles finishing eecond in 62.4 seconds. Melanie Venekamp and Kathy Nichols both reached their goal of na' tional qualification in the women 's 3,()()O.melcr run. Coach Moore was pleased with the Lute tracksters performance: "We did pretty well, in some CIlSCS wo performed even better than we had expected," he lJaid. "There were a few lathletes) I had hoped would qualify. but there are still two meets left and we plan on doing it there." Moore was disappointed in the men'. middle dist.ance events. "There were four beats in the 1.500, and our people were placed in the slowest. beat," Moore said, explaining "they have yet to run their fastest times this season and they were hoping to be pusbed at this meet." Craig Stelling was the only men'e win· ner, throwing the javelin 199-6 to claim first pla<:e honors.

About B doren PLU 9Ludents have near-freezing been braving temperatures for the past four days and nighLS to increase awareness about the university's ties to lh<> apartheid regime in South Africa that promotes II racist syst.em that denies blacks certain political and social rights. Hudd!ed together in their "shanty town." built of cardboard and plywood. the gTOup vows to stay in Easlvold Square until Monday when the PI.U Regents will be on campus. At that tilne the Board of Regents is scheduled to discuss disinventmcr.t of the universi· ty's endowment with companies that have ties to South Africa. Disinvestment has been promoted by mnny anti·apartheid IIctivists as a way to force change in the South African government. Other universities have either partially or wholly divested their asselS from companit19 that do busineSll in South Africa. The University of Michigan. St. Olnf College in Minnesota, and the Universi· ty of Washington have also participated in shanty town demonstrations as a form of protest. Students at Purdue University, Yale University, and the University of California at Berkeley were arrested for maintaining shanties on campus.

Dona Miller sees herself as a vi· sionary, someone who can Lranslate stu· dent development theory n i to programs that promote student growth. Miller, assistant University Center directol', will begin implementing 80me o those visions June 1 when she re laces retiring University Center Director Marvin Swenson. Swenson will retire May 31 after working as UC director for 17 years. Miller was ap!XIinted to the position by Mary Lou Fenili, vice president for Student Life. Fenili said she hopes people view Miller's appointment as a positive step on the student's behalf. In addition to coordinating both student and off· campus use of UC space, Miller will also design programs that will promote stu· dent involvement and growth. Miller's appointment will compliment the new approach Student Life is taking with the UC:Fenili said. The is to use the UC as a tool to provide "prqgrams that will enhance the

"I'd to switch that. We want the students to feel like the UC s i a comfor­ table place to re!u" and have some fun. Miller came to PLU from Chapman College in Orange, Calif., where she was

Students say animals make great roommates by Kalherine Hedland Ma st stall reporter SUI' Bucknam wanted a pet for some eXLTa company. Sh(' could not ha"e the dog sh(' wanted because of university policy. so she got a t.'Urbil instead lind named him Doug. and fib'1lred that was cloSt.' enough. ;o,.lam· PLlJ student.s like Bucknam have pets in their dorm rooms.

Somp prefer simpler aquatic variHies such 115 goldfish. while others have ex· pensive tropical fish in huge aquariums. Don Bosch. a PLU senior. has a IllTge salt.water tank with two tropical fish-a Yeltow Tang and a Boxfish. Bosch said he enjoys saltwater tanks more than fresh water tanks because the fish are much brighter in color. "'They seem to have their own per­ sonality." he said. Saltwater tanks are more expensive, " but it's worth it." Bosch's fish require more than flake food so he iceds them shrimp and frozen freeze-dried food. Bosch said he is training his fish to eat

out of his hand.

Rodents like Bucknam's gerbil are also common. Student.s have made " honorary roommates" out of mice, hamsters, and rat.s. Freshmen Tony Hidenrick has a white mouse he calls Amos. According to Hidenrick. Amos'

favorite activity is to grab on to his treadmill and ride around in circles up­ side down. Birds and bunnies are growing ever more "fashionable'" as pets. Heidi Barnett and Denise Smith have a parnkeet named Gucci, named after the expensive line of Italian accessories. Barnett said. "He's really hyper all of the time," but she ikes l him more than

Prizzi shares her room with an all·white albino dwarf bunny named Bugs. '"They're friends."' she said of her two pets. " They keep each other busy during the day when I'm gone." Two Hurstad girls have rabbits who ure also friends. Lisa Ann Mikulencak said und her next door neighbor let their bunnies roam around the halls when they arc home. Though all these pets are satisfying to their owners. more unusual ones also exist. Karl Jastak and Jim F'orsyth wanted " something for the room" and rather than a new poster or chair. decid· ed to get a ferret. Jastak said that ferrets are friendly and trainable. "You can play with them. They're just like cats,"' he said. Rosco is potty-trained and he docs not cause any problems on their wing, he said. Wally, Hong Hall's resident alligator, is growing at a rate of two n i ches n i length per month and is now two feet long, said Larry Walters, one of Wa�'s ­ owners. Wally lives in a 3D-gallon tank and is not released too often. Walters said. " lots of people come by n i terested in him. but no one is frightened."

Walters said he can hypnotize Wally by laying him on his back and stroking his stomach. After this. Wally sleeps for about seven minutes. Wally no longer cats just goldfish. He is now fed frozen fish and chicken a few times a week. Walters said he definitely plans to have his second roommate around next year. Kathy Drayer, of Spanaway's Pet Kingdom. said that the ideal pet for a dorm room is a wantula. TarantuuluJ require very little care. and hardly cause any problems. Drayer said there is no cleaning up, disease. or noise to worry about, and that it costs about 30 cents a

'"There are drawbacks to nearly every other pet,"' Drayer said. An employee at the World of Tropical Fish and Pet Supply on Pacific said that many PLU students go there to buy their peLS. '" A lot of people get fi2h.'" she said. " I t seems t o b e the easiest."' Of these, she added, gold fish require the least care and live the longest.

If a student is tired of looking at his dog's picture on thl.' wall near his desk, or waiting to hear her cat to meow over the phone, there are many types of animals convenient enough to fill that empty space.

Divestment: Apartheid forum attracts student i ntere st by Sonja Ostrom Mast staff

reporter

"There is clearly more than one , perspectj ." on the issue of divestment," PLU Professor Don Farmer told an au' dience of approximately 150 students and faculty at a forum held Tuesday night. History professor Jack Bermingham and Farmer of the political science department were the speakers for and against divestment from South African investments n i the forum. "Divestment and PLU: A Discussion of the Viability of Adopting the ALC Policy Toward Apartheid." According to a memo signed by PLU student John Batker of Bread for the World. the forumwas put on by. "a coalition of concerned students who, as members of an academic institituion devoted to the study of the liberal arts. feel that meaningful decisions can be reached. only through the ready and free t:xchange of ideas." The forum was sponsored by ASPLU's Executive Committee, the Of­ fice of Minority Affairs. the History Club, and Bread for the World. "in view of the lack of information and discussion

of that isolation was that South Africa moved to make substantial changes in sports polic�� s�ch as racially in· tegrating its athletic teams. Fanner said he and Bermingham would disagree on how much change is taking place, and said he has been amaz­ ed at the rate of change in South Africa. Universities are raciaUy integrated, pro­ perty restrictions for non·whites have been eliminated, and steps are being taken to bring blacks into government, he said. "We in America cannot set the agen· da," Farmer said. Bermingham said that he is not sug· gesting that Americans tell Africans what thay should do.

Farmer told approximately 150 au· dience members, primarily students. that divestment is part of a well or· chestrated campaign that has "born· barded us" with propaganda on one side of the issue. "We must become better in· formed," he said. Americans can promote change by divesting and refusing to support American C1:lmpanies that support businesses in South Africa, Berm· ingham said. We do have evidence that this would be effective by the reaction of the South African government when the world tried to isolate South Africa in in· ternational athletic competition during the 1960s. Bermingham said the result

"I hope not...Americans say, 'What about those poor Africans who will lose their jobs'!' Do we know better than the African leaders who have asked us to divest?"" he asked. Farmer said there are a number of black leaders who oppose divestment on the grounds it would take jobs away from blacks. "'Even if we were to hurt the South African government with a campaign of divestment," Fanner said, "we would hurt the blacks. They wculd be the ones to lose their jobs," he said. Bermingham said that when tkuss· ing apartheid, "we're talking about children being arrested on a daily basis,"' he said. "Children who ''''e seek· n i g and promoting change."

reporter

PLU students. faculty, and ad· minisl�iitors met Tuesday to discuss the effectiveness of divestment, but were unable to reach any agreement on the issue. Jennifer Hubbard, former ASPl.U vice president. initiated the meeting because she said she thought it was im· portant for dialogue to take place bet· ween those C1:lncerned with the issue and those making the decisions. President Rieke said that the meeting was the appropriate way for students and administration to work toward a resolution. There was a fairly good. exchange of views, said religion professor Robert Stivers, but nothing was resolved at the meeting which wa.q attended by faculty members Stivel s and Joanne Brown of the religion department, students Hubbard, John Batker and Bruce Deal. and Rieke. Pery Hendricks, ice president of Finance and Opera· tions, James Peterson of University Relations, and Regent Frank Jennings.

" We covered a wide fange of what divestment is about and whether it is an effective way to make II. statement on the apartheid issue," Peterson said. " There was diS8greemen�, and it was said that American companies in South Africa are doing more good by being there than if they weren't because they can pressure the South African govern' ment there," he said. Balker said that opinions were aired freely at the meeting, and that it was good that they had the opportunity to discuss the issue. "There was no question about the issue of apartheid," Rieke said. "Everyone condemns that. The question is what to do about it," he said. "We discussed all sides of what divestment implies," Hubbard said. "and we obviously disagreed about what was effective and faithful." Hub­ bard explained that the purpose of the meeting wasn't to seal anything, just to begin discussion. Rieke said that the meeting took place as a reaction to student request, and that he would be happy to facilitate other such meetings in the future.

div�t. We might live up to that ourselves." There are other ways to influence the South African government, said Farmer, such as providing funds for black South African students to study n i the United States or by financially supporting black students who wish to enroll in South ' African universities. This would promote racial integTation in the best universities in South Africa, he said. Bermingham, who said that we have a false vision of "uneducated natives running around," said that education is "a

nice idea...but what are you going to do," he asked, " educate a black and then tell him he doesn't get to vote?" Bermingham ended. his statement by saying that "busine.ss as usual" means that we are supporting the system. " iog nothing does not mean doing nothing." Farmer concluded. by saying that ev�n if it were po.ssible for divestment to work, it's possible that it could create a revolutionary situation. " I f you believe in a revolution."' he said.

Shanty town d i rects attention to d ivestment protest, from page t

rest until PLU divests," "Constructive engagement is no engagement," "'God is love, not white," and "PLU supports apartheid."' Nancy Wendland. one of the organizers of the protest, said responses from passersby have been generally positive and supportive. Reaction from members of the PLU community ranged from, " It only took 20 years for the 1960s lo:gct to PLU," to "Finally there is something going on in Red Square." Protest organizer Rehocca Hagman said the group is not trying to make university administrators join with those who have done something to eliminate apartheid. "We're not saying PLU should stand alone against apartheid," she said. "We just want them to abide by the American Lutheran Church statement." The statement adopted by the ALC Board of Trustees in May 1981 con· demns apartheid and judges that divestiture is "the most effective rtheid." The Board strategy against apa voted to divest of all' the companies do­ ing business in South Africa. Those who are living and sleeping in the shanty townshare an anti.apartheid stance, but each had his own reasons for joining the protest. PLU junior Tami Adam said she feels she can influence PLU's position on the

issue by remaining n i Eastvold Square. "It's hard sometimes to deal with a big issueke il apartheid, so this is a way I can make a difference." she said. Sophomore Heidi Bray said she does

not believe the university is living up to its " Christian context." "I don't think Christian ideals at PLU are being upheld by supporting apartheid." Although the protesters have said they will disperse once the Board of Regents meet on Monday, their tru..in ob­ jective is to demonstrate until "the discussion of South Africa and its rela· tion to PLU reaches a level proportional to its importance."

Bread for the World seeks Third World improvements by Sonja Ostrom Masl slaff reporter Bread for the World's ongoing goal to increase membership is being realized as numbers in attendance consistently rise. This increase reflects that there is a heightened conciousness of hunger issues and awareness of the conflict n i Central America at PLU, said John BaLker. II member of the student organization. "When we increase membership. we increase knowledge." said member Maill Johnson. '·which is an important part of our purpose." On II nationlll le\·el. Bread for the World is a Christian lobbying group con' cerned with hunger issues in the United States and abroad, said member Mark Van Mouwerik. "The philosophy." explained Batker.

"is that by influencing U.S. policy. we can be more effective in smaUer countries." " It's a charily organil,ation," Johnson said. "Ils goal is to deal with issues that affect hunger." The right to food is the basic premise for the efforts of Bread for the World, Batker said, nnd by influencing United Slates policy its members hope to make ongGing long·range improvements in de\'e1oping Third World countries in· stead of one-time relief measures such as last summer's Live Aid concerts.

Future goals include promoting awareness of hunger on a local level by visiting the Tacoma Salishan Mission, headed by former PLU University Pastor fton Vignec, and reaching more students on campus, members said. Van Mouwerik thinks there are more people on the PLU campus concerned about social justice issues than. those who attend the meetings. "The big thing is getting people to make the connection between being a Christian and working for social justice." Van Mouwerik said. "In the U.S. and at PLU loving and helping your neighbor means asking them to a movie if tlH!y're lonely. help­ ing with homework, being nice," Van Mouwerik continued, "but it's supposed to mean a lot more, eSpeciaUy when you look at it in terms of a global community." "The world is one family separated by waters and cultures," Johnson said. "If we can help our neighbors at PLU, why shouldn't we help our neighbors in the world?" Batker said that students are good at responding to short·term projects like the fast and current issues such as the response to the Ethiopian problems with "PLU for Africa" week last year, but then that disappeared, he said.

AIDS policy approval sought by Sonja Ostrom Mast stall reporter The Student Health Advisory Com· mittee (SHAG) will seek university ap­ proval of a policy that will outline treat· ment of all PLU AIDS patients on a caseby case basis. Judy Wagonfl'ld, HealthIWellness Coordinator for the PLU Health Center. said that President Rieke and the Stu· dent Life Office must approve the policy. The General Sl8tement on Institu· tional Response to AIDS (Acquired 1m· mune Deficiency Syndromel policy was created by the American College Health Association. "The policy s i really Ul have no policy," said Health Center Director" Dan Coffey. "AIDS patient:s would be treated just like other patients on a case by case basis." In a letter accompanying the general statement, the SHAC committee said there s i no reason to violate the con­ fidentiality of anyone in the PLU com­ munity who may be suspected of, or known to be canying the AIDS virus. According to the letter, the purpose of the policy s i to inform, educate, and assist in the proper management of AIDS carriers in the PLU oommunity. Great efforts will be made in preventing "ArDS hysteria" or unrational fear of exposure to AIDS, the lettersaid. The policy endoraes AIDS patients at.­ tending classes, and participating in school athletics, their rigbt to C{)nfiden' tiality of medical information, as well as listing safety guidelines for handling the blood, body fluids,' needles, and equip­ ment of AIDS patients. Coffey said tbey hope to have the policy through approval stages this spring and have it implemented by next foil.

Th� Mast, Apri l 25, 1986

Protest is forcing discussion College campuses nationwide participated In college Anti·apartheld Day lasl Oct. t 1. Technically PLU was among those colleges, but the only evidence of such participalion was the chapel service which focused on the theme of in· justices in South Africa and Namibia, and the lew students who had lied purple ribbons ar� .''ld their arms, The general altitude on this campus was that no one really knew much about South Africa and apartheid, and sadly, nobody seemed to care to know, either. This week, six months after PLU's meager attempt to show concern aboul apartheid and divestment, altitudes are changing, A handful of about 20 students decided PlU has kept its head in the sand can· cerning South Africa tong enough, and has focused the attention of PlU students, and hopefully, the allention 01 the Board of Regents, on the Issue 01 apartheid and the poSSibility 01 divestiture as a means by which PLU can protest apartheid. The students responsible lor forcing this university to deal with the divest· ment Question are primarily members of the campus organization, Bread for the World. It would have been easy lor them to have gone through "proper channels" and merely write leiters to the regents and present tectur'=!s, similar to one held in January on apartheid, which attracted t 5 students, Instead they went beyond this approach and took the initiative to actually stage a week· long sit·in protest in Red Square, complete with a shanty town, banners, protest signs and anti· apartheid literature, The regents expressed a concern al their February meeting, and rightly so. thai before Ihey address ASPLU's request to comply With the American Lutheran Church's divestiture guidelines, this university's student population become educated concerning apartheid and the possibilities of divestment. With an estimated 650 student signatures (as of Thursday evening) on peti· tions calling for the regents to comply with ASPlU's divestiture request and a lecture on apartheid and divestment that filled Xavier Hall's lecture room lor nearfy two hours with 150 Inquisitive students, it appears that students are final· Iy addressing the apartheid question, Now that students are taking a long, hard look at divestment, perhaps the regents will join them, honoring the request to divest which the American Lutheran Church has proposed to Its churches and related Institutions, -David Steves The April 11 issue 01 The Mas/ Incorrectly reported that the recent University Congregation vote concerning the sanctuary movement would determlnlne PLU's stance on that issce.

FJ'oot o, the Lute PLU no shelter from terrorism by Clayton Cowl

Mast stall reporter

The brushed stainless steel oount.ef'­ top stared up at me like i t was going to spit. The putrid stinging odor of an amine compound, like a thousand pounds of rotting bass, had been spilled over the stockroom counter by an ig· norant fresman chemistry student. I peered across the counter at the suspect, a svelte, dark·haired girl biting her lower lip and blurting out choppy apologies, Slle seemed nice enough. Her silky hair fell over her shoulders and her �nocent smi l e took all the fun out of reprimanding her. "Sorry. I'm really, reaUy solTy. I didn't mean it. I'm sorry." "No, it's okay. Really." Then a cold, beady sweat broke out on my forehead as I realized what was gG­ ing on. There are terrorists on this campus. Now, most students fOO that they are sheltered aIDong the ivory towers of knowledge 'here at PLU, but no place on earth is free from terrorism, It's all Khadllffy's fault-and those little pips­ queaks that do aU the dirty work for him. They come in many shapes and disgtJises, This week was certainly no excepticn, Most strikes have been directed on col· umnists of college newspapers. A simple experiment in a microbiology lab can be a real adventure when there are terrorists after you.

Plumes of steam and smoke clung to the llcoustical ceiling, looking for a fire alarm to set off. We were amazed, It had to be some kind of a joke, How does a heat·reSistant beaker bottom break into a perfett circle with nothing but a bunch of warm milk inside of it? The answer was simple.

Motion not merely for discussion To the Editor: It is unfortunate that in the April 1 8 issue o f The Mast both the front page news article and the editorial relative to divestment in South Africa are misleading having missed the point of the action taken by the Faculty Assembly, Dr, Stivers' motion was intended not divestment but to put ,

the entire faculty on record as favoring auch action and instructing the facwty secretary to communicate this senti­ ment to the chairman af the board wbich administers the fund responsible for faculty and otber University pensions. The motion to postpone indefinitely which was applied to Stivers' proposal was not n i tended to and did not sup" press discussion of the merits of divest· ment. It did, however, effectively dispose of a motion to put tbe Faculty ASgembly on record that the majority of members did not chOO8e upressly to adopt or reject, By all means let the univenity oom· munity openly discuss the problems of South Africa including the moral and social issue of divestment.

Apartheid issue is more complex than shanties and protest To the Editor, The emotions flow in a small lIChoolyard. It is "Us against Them" as two groups vIe tor the upper hand and for the lIUpport of the rest of the school kids. One of· tho little boys gets a bit mad walking past the other group and shows it. One of the little girls shouts out at the angry boy "What's wrong, can'tyou take tho hea�1" One might notice that this last quote is not a question-having had ex· perience with behaviorally disturbed kida I might even call it a "come on." Unfortunately this is not a junior high playground, nor is it a fIght between two groups over territory, or better yet, over female accompanyment. , It is story of broken promises, pride, self·rightoouanesll, snd adolescent emo­ tional fu:ations. Last Saturday night I ran into one of the leaders of the shsnty town that was erected Monday morning. Thill person aasured me that the purpose and the main statement of the shanty town was to bring awareness and information about the South AfriclUl quandry of Apartheid in lieu of the upcoming forum

and vote by the Rcgent.s. 'fhia person did not say that the slogana represent easy answers and give rise to nothing but clenched teeth and fista of ptlople who might not happen to agree, I was told that the evidence is clear that divestiture is the best thing to do. However, it the evidence ill so clear, then why docsn't everyone agree, join hands, and sing hallelujah to the Lord? It occW'3 to me that both aide!!! here need to talk. Let'a just have everyone leave the self·righteoullneSll in Red Square (the PLU One that is,) 1 do not know the anllwer to the South African problem, I clso realize that there is no virtue in being able to lIay this, Yet I cannot help but see that awareness and information did not get out as much at hoatilitles between friends of mine that I have on botil sides of thi.J is!ue of divelltment. I also see that as Christians we do need to act in certain situations, even if we arenot lIUTe of the outcome of our ac· tions. Yet we are also called to be hum· DIe, and to know our limitations-being both meek and strong in the Lord. It wall only the soldiers and the robbera on the cross that taunted and jeered, not

Faculty must address d ivestment ToThe Editor: This past week, Thtt Mast contained some interesting paradoxes. On the front page were two articles that reveal· ed two very different nstures of PLU. University Congregation had voted to support the sanctuary movement, while tbe faculty had decided to not even ctiscuss divestment in connection with the apartbied conditions in South .Africa. We would like to specifically focus on the s i sue of divestment. We agree witb David Steves and the forty·six facwty members who voted in favor of discuss· ing a re9Olution by PLU to ask TIAA and CREF to divest. As lItudents in a liberal arts lIehool, we are called to ques' tion the nature of our education when some of our professors seem to shy away from even a mild call to action in dealing with an issue that has moral, ethical, and economic consequences. For some, if not all students, what they learn n i the classroom becomes in· fused and n i tegrated into their view point arid understanding of the world they interact with, Our education is not a hypothetical case or question, but a real part of who we are as students. By

refUSing to discusa an iSllue such as divestment, the faculty appears to be treating the liberal arts OJ:perience as a hypotheticaJ experiment that they con· duct during office hoW'3 and n i lecture but do not extend to their dealings with other situations, The dual nature of PLU as both a liberal arts and a Christian achool should even more strongly stimulate an atmosphere of open diacussion and debate concerning situations of oppres­ sion and sociaJ injustice.. From ,. Chris· lain perspective, such actions as done by the South African government can not got unanswered without a call for compa.!lsion and an end to oppression and violence, As studenta, we have accepted Pro­ fesscr Bermingham's challenge to ponder the s i sue, now we challenge the facwty to propose a new resolution, and at least discuss divestment and confront the issue of apartheid.

In the late 1960s anti·war activists proposed an action that seemed to be right in·and-of·il.5elf: getting Ol.:t of Viet· nam. Unfortunately their good inten· tionll went awry, and we ended up responsible for creating the Marxist prison atate that now exists. The same pattern is repeating itself at PLU. Anti· apartheid demonstrators advocating divestment hope to end apartheid and establish a democracy. But all divest· ment will do is cause Nlvolution and bloodshed, and aid in the ellLablishment of another Maniat alate. The goal of both pro and con is to end apartbeid:The quetltion is how? Originally we tried persuasion. But our efforts in the 60s and 70s did not convince the whites that aputheid' should end, The whites literally thought thoy had to palronite the blacks, and establillhed a terrible system called apartheid Now thoy know differently, But things have chsnged since the mid·70s, and whiw fear black backlash. They are afraid that what happened n i Zimbabwe will happen in South Africa if apartheid is immediately abolished. The problem with divestment is that it would work on1y too weU. �nt ar­ ticles in journals like WISti'm Political Quartttrly DOW argue that divelltment would serioullly harm the South African

economy. Hut divesunent would pro­ bably not hann apartheid. It would, however. throw millionll of blacks out 01 work. Oh, but we Americana would feel so righteoull and proper and good for helping end apartheid even a little! This ill what columnist George Will calls "political masturbation." It docs no good, and only makes us feel better. But divestment's evil effectll go beyond simple unemployment. An analysis of South African violence by the black·run Lincoln Institute shows us that incroa.sed unemployement causes more violence and more death. Enough economic chaos, like divestment would cause, and revolution is going to hap­ pen, Lincoln Institute experts say. But n i a revolution those with the guns will WiD. So who has the guns in South Africa? The Marxist African National Congress IANC) and its leader, Nelson Mandela. The ANC has plenty of guns thanks to twenty years of Soviet arms shipment.s, and thousands of ANC ter· rorists have been trained at Patrice Lumumba University, a terrorist school in Moscow. So in any revolution the communist ANC will seize control. But American policy should be to avoid n!volutioD for as long all possible and hel� organize the demOcratic op­ positiOJl. The majority of blacks in South Africa do not support the ANC, but are .so disorganited that they have

Protest shows concern To the edllor: I think it goes without .saying that there will be at least one letter to the editor about tbe sbanty town in red square. Now, without sounding "self· righteous" and throwing my fist into the air, I would like to say that I support those people who have built, manned, and slept in the shanty town. I believe that if everyone would just put their political views aside for a moment and look at the issue from a completely ob-

jective point of view, they would realize that the shanty town ill not hurting . anyone, If anything, this demonstration is in· creasing awareness on campus. People that may have never thought about the iuue of apartheid before are stopping to think about it, therefore inaea.sing the educational opportunities here. Come on, kids, let's not fight amongst ourselves. After all, recess is only beginning. ChIp Upchurch

'Clayton Cowl Week?' To Tho Edllor: As men of Rainier, we read Clayton's column last week and enjoyed it because the service on the food service hotline really is a joke. First of all, the informa· tion produced is very seldom useful or understandable. Second. we dOD't fmd the comedians humorous. and finally we don't have time to patroniU! their rouLiue. Scott Dunmire lacks a certain amount of class in that be Usell Clayton's name n i hi� comedy of �

entitled "Clayton Cowl Week." Perhaps Mr, Dunmire and his associates might take a lesson from Mr, Cow� seeing that he !CO\) never used personal names to embarrass individuals. What started out to be conatructive criticism has fallen into the hands of incompetent morons who have failed to see the light.

Bombing taught Khadafy a lesson To The Editor. Terrorillm has become an increasing concern in the past several months and Mommar Khadafy bas had a lot to do with it. This maverick openly supports terrorists by providing training camps in Libya, financing their operations, and supplying weapons. Khadafy has been linked to many attacks including the slaughters at the airports n i Rome and Vienna which he called "heroic." The bombing of the West Berlin dilleo was just the latest incident in Khadafy's reign of terror,

Call for divestment is 'political masturbation'

To The Editor:

Hearing an annoying but familiar noise, the teacher comes out of the lIChool room-"Come on kids, shake hands and let's go talk about it, not fight." Come on kids, recess is over.

DO political party r.: be their advocate. The Re&g:ln Doctrine .says that we should arm democratic "third forces" n i nations where there is no option but armed conflict n i the effort to establish democracy, Revolution seems inevitable sooner or later n i South Africa. Divest· ment will bring it sooner, before we have time to organil.e and arm democratic blacks in South Africa. lnlltead we should avoid divestment and encourage the President to apply his own Reagan Doctrine to the situation in South Africa. Only in this way can we take positive, active steps to help n!solve the ocnnict tbere and also avoid black backlash against whites. Divelltment is wrong, It would precipitate a revolution that would be co-opted by the Marxist ANC. Then we would be responsible for destroying apartheid and replacing it with a Com· munist regime motivated by an ideology that ill already responsible for millions of deaths in the Soviet Union, Cam· bodia, Vietnam and Afghanistan. Former Vietcong leader Doan Van Toai says that Americans deceived themselves about Vietnam. When will we lItop deceiving ourselves with lIimplilltic understandings about South Africa? Tim Evanson

This kind of horrible violence must be put to an end. The only problem is how we showd go about doing it. Mere rhetoric will do nothing. If we just try to ignore it, the terrorists will not go away, Whether we act or not. they will con· tinue their attlXities so long as they can still bring fear and death to others, Diplomatic pressure docs not work, because Khadafy and his followers do not care what the U.S. and the West sayll, The Europeans refused to impose an economic embargo which would have cutoff Libya's flow of oil revenue. If this would have been done, Khadafy might have beftI forced to back down or faced economic collapse, Increased security of potential targeu and better n i telligence has helped, but the terTOrists lIUpported by Khadafy keep on coming. We showd not jUllt sit back and wait for the next attack to take place. Therefore, the only other way left to combat terrorism is the military option, President Reagan did the right thing by ordering the attack on Libya. If we can't effectively control the terrorists where they lItme, then we lIhould attempt to cut off at the source. The air strikes told Khadafy that we are fed up with his ac­ tions and he is going to have to suffer the consequences. If the Libyan colonel wants to continue his campaign of spreading fear, death and destruction, " he mUllt live with the pouibWty of being punished for his actions. Some people have criticized the U.S. because Libyan civilians were killed by a 2,000 lb. bomb. It is unfortunate that these people died. However, the intend· ed targets were military ones. Every precaution was taken to minimize civilian caualities, but some must be ex· pected. On the other hand. terrorists sometimell make it a point to single out civilian targets becau.se they are defenseless sgainllt their "heroic ac­ tions." If we rule out our military op­ tions, we only limit our capal-i1ites n i the fight against terrorism. Jim Lett Randy Haacke Ken Schonberg

Colors make a bold ·ap� by Brian DaiBaicon Mast projects editor !986 is the "Year of the Body." Thanks to the fitness craze, this season's clothing styles have beeo nar­ rowed and designed to accentuate the body's natural curves that so many of us have worked hard all winter to fine tune. Though there is no one dominant style or color for this spring, fashions for women will generally be very colorful and feminine. The straight, masculine look of lut year is out, said Dana Hin· ton. wardrobe and color consultant for The Bon. For men, Hinton said styles are break· ing out of the traditional "banker's suits" and becoming more daring with a "new professional look" that is just as sophisticated. but much more approachable.

Scholarship rewards PLU pianist's diligence by Janna Abrahamson Mast staff reporter

I magine what it would be like to study piano performance with a teacher who spoke a different language. That is exactly how this year's reci· pient or the forestine Wise Monsen Memorial Piano Scholarship began her college career. Tuyen Ton, senior perfor­ mance major at PLU, said that when she firs� arrived here from Vietnam, she "didn't know anything. and it was a problem." PLU professor Dr. Calvin Knapp. Ton's teacher. said that she has demonstarated an "intense performa'lce intent and tremendous development" with her practice. "She has a remarkable amount of repertoire," he said. Some of her past achievements in­ clude being a student soloist with the Universi�y Symphony Orchestra and a soloist with the Tacoma Youth Symphony. Ton will present a performance with Knapp tonight at 6:30 at Peninsula Lutheran Church in Gig Harbor. Atten­ ding the concert will be the founder of the scholarsrup awarded to Ton, Dr. Robert Monsen. Knapp said an offering is taken for the student which enlarges the entire sum they receive towards fur­ ther study. The award was founded at PLU when the Calvin Knapp family presented a concert in memory of Monsen's wife, a

12 The Mast, AR�i!25, 1986

Drama coach to play dual role during the fall Becvar named local theatre's artisic d i rector by Shelley Bryan Mast reporter William Becvar, assistant professor of theatre at PLU, has accepted the posi· tion of acting artistic director for the Tacoma Actors Guild (TAG), Tacoma's only theatre that employs only members of the Equity actors union. Becvar, co-founder of TAG and cur· rent associate artistic director, said this is not that first chance he has had to step into the artistic director's shoes. A few years ago he filled in for current ar· tistic director Rick Tutor. Tutor, who has been with TAG since it.s inception in 1978. has resigned to pursue freelance work as a professional actor and director. Becvar assumes his new duties July 1. Becvar said his work with TAG should not interfere with his classes at PLU. Becvar began working at PLU 12 years ago and he said his outside work with the theatre has never created a con· flict. He said he will have to sacrifice some other interests such as "planting flowers and walking on the shores of Puget Sound." Becvar's goals for TAG include mak· ing the theatre fmancially solvent and finding a permanent home for the company, In an effort to strengthen its financial position, TAG recently adjusted its employee's salaries by reducing hours, said Becvar. TAG is currently consider· ing two locations for a permanent theatre. One is located in Lakewood and the other is in downtown Tacoma. TAG must relocate because it.9 cur­ rent residence at 1323 S. Yakima Ave. would be too expensive to buy. "'To bring it up to (building) code would cost a fortune," said Becvar.

Although he has not oificially begun his new job, Becvar is already assuming some extra responsibilities. The next month will be a transition period, he said. One major problem to overcome. he said laughingly, is the new complicated telephone system. Becvar began his career n i drama as an actor but quit about 10 years ago. "'I have more value as a director," he said. He considers himself to be an "O.R. actor, but other people are just wonder· ful," he said. After playing about 65 different roles, said Becl'ar, he realized he could direct hetter than those who were directing him. Two .productions which Becvar will direct at TAG during the next year are Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf and Neil Simon's The Star-Spangled Girl. Becvar said he has "selected Rick.Tutor to play George opposite of my ex·wife Martha," in the first production. Past TAG productions directed by Becvar include A Raisin in the Sun, A StreetCflT Named Desire, and Guys and

Triathlon :

PLU endurance athletes participate in sport that offers triple the pain, pleasure

by Jimmy Brazil

Mat sports editor

Jus� 8 few short years ago triathlons were regarded as a sport for 8 few eccentric IIthlet.es who met annual· ly in Hawai i to thrash their bodies to unknown limit.8. Times are a · changin', however, and triple sport madness is exploding throughout the world. the coun­ try. and even Pacific Lutheran University. 'l'riathlons were invented over a decadt' ago and now draw over one million participant&. The "sport of the eighties" label placed on the sport bas proven to be more thanjust temporary hype. The triathlon', innovative combination of three gruelling athieLic activities-swimming, biking, nmning-qlske it a challenging. yet accessible sport. The sport's big boom began n i 1982 with the emergence of the Unit.ed States Triathlon Association IUsrS) giving .triatbletks 8 professional circuit. Although there were only five usrs events that year, the sport got nationaJ exposure which gave it an identi· ty and an n i creased level of competition. 1982 also marked the year that ABC te1evision br08dcasted Hawaii's Jronman Triathlon World Cham· pionships. The lromnan is the originaJ triathlon con· sisting of a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike, and a 26.2 run. The intensity of the shoYo' was at its peak when Julie Moss, then leading the women's field, collapsed near the finish line of the 141 milo race. She finally reached the finish line, placing second, before passing out. Many people felt her feat demonstrated n i credible courage while others felt it was an act of stupidity, but either way, Moss' performance captured the public's curiosity and imagination. The triple-sport challenge is becoming incrusingly popular among PLU students, many of them reaching into the elite category competition. PLU sophomore Steve Mayer, a top local triathlete,­ believes that triathlons take someone who possesses "pure inner discipline." Mayer credits triathlons for fme tuning his life. Triathlons "keep me healthy and let me know that I - can·find my limits." - A Triothlon magazine survey suggests that the average triathlete is thirty·four, college-educated, and earns more than 540,000 a year, Mayer said that triathletee are "overachievers: pe0ple who art' not afraid to push themselves to greater limita." Mayer equates his feelings durihg a triathlon to his feelings while studying. "I'm relaxed, driven, not giving up when it gets tough," Mayer said. The cycling aspect of trathlons is Mayer's favorite, calling it his "forte." Mayer finiahed 17th out of ap­ proximately 400 triathletes in the biking segment of last summer's Bellevue Triathlon. Sports enthusiasts will more than likely see triathlons as an official sport n i the 1992 Summer Olympiad. "After that (the 1992 Olympics) triathlons settle into the world as a first class endurance event," Mayer said. In a sport that requires an incredible amount of energy ezpenditure. the body must receive the most ef· ficient fuel possible, Gene-ally, triathletes consume about 70 percent carbohydrates, 20 percent protein and 10 percent fat, The logic behind the high starch consumption is that it breaks down most efficienUy. Carbohydrates also the qulckeat form of energy, diecluding the "rush" that lugar provides. The car· bohydrates load the liver up with glycogen which muscles use for energy. PLU hman croa5 country runner and track member Chris Spence entered the world of triathlons long a with run' ning background. Spence said that the sport of triathloning "lUcks us" on road racing (running) becauae it is triple the pleasure and you have to be a more wellrounded ath1ete. One of triath1on's most benficial characteristic is the cross·training principle (using multiple sports to achieve overall fitness). Cross training allows the body to train harder, le9s often, and with greater l'e9ult9. For example, a triath1ete will swim one day snd bike the next, which allows the muscles 48 hours of rest Ithe required amount of time it tek8!l for a muscle to become fully repaired dtcr a vigorou9 workout). This method of training enables the athlele to work out at a higher intensity which fOsults in bolter performance. SPence's favorite professional triath1ete is 1986 Iron· man World Champion Sectt Tiniey. Tinley was one of the fim professional triathletes and was in the sport from the beginning of it's eIiatence. Spence appreciates Tinley'a tough as nails attitude and his to quit no matter how dim the cir­ cumstances. "He fell on his bike at the Nice, France triathlon came back two weeks later to win the lrorunan," Spence . In hia peak trainina: months Qf June, July, and AuSUst, Spence follows controversial Pritikin diet,

originated by the late Nathan Pritikin. The diet promotes enormous consumption of com· pin. carbohydrates, eliminating practically all fats, cholesterol and sugar. "It is a tough diet because I have a t.er.ible sweet tooth," Spence said. However, he feels fortunate that his mom is "into nutritional ebting" and helps him 3tick to it, PLU sophomore Mitch Smith, a third year triathlete, decided to "tri" after viewing the 1983 lrorunan on ABC. Smith, a participant in 1983, got an abundance of "respect because the sport was small." Smith said of triathlon is never boring , because "it takes up !to much of your time. . Smith, on a medium int.eDsity summer workout day train bet· ween four eight hours. This enormoU5 time block includes two workouts (always different events) weights, transition traingin (the practice of changing clothes for bike and run segments in the most efficient and rapid manner). ' A firm believer' in the high carbohydrate feeding method, Smith does not eat any red meat during his peak training months. In the future, tristhlona will not seem like such 8 heroic feat, claims Smith."It won't be SO amazing to be a triath1ete." . "The best part of the triathlon is the finish, because you really feel rewarded-like you've accomplished something," Smith said.

Tennis

Struss victorious i n UWtournament by Robynn Rocksl.d Mast reporter

The Pacific Lutheran men', tennis team saw PAC-IO action last weekend at the Universtiy of Washington in the Intercollegiate Pacific Northwest Championships. The Lutes, who post a win-loss record of 19-7, played three matches at the UW tournament. The men beat the Universi­ ty of Oreg'...: 6·3 but lost to the Dawfr-j of Washington 7-2. Whitman, the team that could stand in the way of the men's eleventh straight CQnference title, beat the Lutes G-4, a narrower margin than earlier this month when the men lost 6-3 to the Missionaries. "We're hoping that we're gaining a lit­ tle each time," said coach Mike Benson. "The guys played better against Whit­ man this weekend than when we played them before." Although senior Tom Peterson, junior Jeff Allen, and freshman Jonathan Schulu all lost their matches to UW players, Benson praised them fer play­ ing well n i tough matches. The lone singles winner against the Huskies was senior Jay Struss, playing in the number six position, defeating Peter Bismuti. Benson said Struss played well throughout the weekend. '" I have been playing pretty well and I played well against him {Bismuti)," Struss said. '"I like the UW courts because they are slower and 1 had time to get to his shots and run them down." "These were probably my two best wins this season," Struss said. "I've played six or seven matches against UW since I was a freshman and I am glad I finally beat someone from the U in singles.'" In the match against Washington, the other winning point came from number three doubles Allen and Struss. "'This pair was a consistent bright spot, '" Ben· son said. This weekend, the team travels to Portland, Ore. for the Northwest Con-

ference of Independent Colleges Tournament. Coach Benson said his team is after the conference title again. "We'll be g0ing after our eleventh straight con­ ference title but there's a formidable foe standing n i our way: Whitman," Benson said. Whitman hss proven to be the victor on two occasions this season, 6-3 in earl>' April and 5-4 Sunday in the UYv tournament. Other competition for the conference title this weekend could come from Lin­ field and Willamctte, Benson said.

As the sun rose over Humbolt. Bay on the Northern California coast. last weekend, the PLU Cl"2W team took aim at their biggest challenge of t.he year. PLU men finished the Redwood Sprints with two victories: the men's novice light four and the men's varsi­ ty eight. Other high finishes included a second place finish in the men's novice eight and varsity four as well as a third place finish by the varsity light eight. Senior Rolf Agather, stroke of the varsity eight, was encouraged by the weekend's performance. "It was a confidence builder and we m i proved greatly over past regattas," Agather said. The men's light novice four had its second successful weekend in a row, winning easily in the 2000 meter en­ durance test, "We still have a lot of room for im­ provement, even though we won hy a wide margin," said freshman Eric Hanson. In varsity four CQmpetiUoD, the men place second to the University of Pacific. The tough Pacifc team finish· ed second on the West last season. "This was the best row we have had and we want another shot at the University of Pacific during West Championships, said Coast sophomore Paul Stordahl The men's lightweight varsity eight hac a solid performance, finishing third in a competitive, California dominated field The rowers said they were pleased to be back on still water, compared to the Willamette River n i Corvallis that they struggled with two weeks ago. "We are looking forward to (ac­ ing some of the teams -we raced earlier in the 8e88on, " said so homoreJ Oleen.

The women's lightweight varisty four outclassed the competition, pushing closer to its goal of rowing at the West Coast Championships. The boat had s fost start snd u9l:d . powerful catches (when,hladee go in· to water) to take fll"sl place bonora. "It was our best ra-e c.. all sesson, said Kim Apker. adding that the race "built our confidence." The women', varsity eight bad their work cut out lor them, rowing against Humbolt State, who has ODe of the largest and strongest women's crew teams on the West coast. Junior Sheila Nehring, the varsity eight stroke, believes the-potential of the boat is about to peak after finishing second bebing a powerful Humbolt State. "We really rowed ' well, Nehring said. "they tHumbolt State} average 5·10 and 170 pounds and are con­ . aidered one of the best in the West." "There was a lot of intense concen­ tration and we were mentally p� to do wep," said coxswain Shannon Tellock. Other successful showings by the 'women's crew team included 8 first place finish in the novice four and a second place finish by the lightweight varsity eight. Women's coach Elise Lindborg said she felt most of the boats rowed well against the strong competition. She also cited the road trip as in· stTumental in bringing the team together_ "The trip began and ended on a posi�ve note," Lindborg said. "It really brought us cloaer together as a team."

TomorTOw, the' crew teani collide! with "'areh.rival UPS in · the annual · Meyer Cup held on Americlln Lake. All boats will be competing except for the men', lightweight varsity eight which will be travelling to the Tri-Citiea to compete �t achools . from the JKowerful Pac-lO Conference.

Sharon Schmitt has arrived. In her four years at PLU she has not omy juggled academics and a work schedule, but she has also managed to suc:cced in two varsity sports. This spring Schmitt legds the 22-4 PLU softball team with 6 13-1 pitching record. "It hasn't been easy for Sharon," said pitching ""ach Tommy Tompkins. A 7-2 freshman year was followed by a sophomore year plagued by elbow pro­ blems.

honor, publicity, and even mateTial aue­ ceSll. But to PLU's Gregg Leach, the on' ly honur gained is that which glOrifies the Lord. Leach, a senior on the varsity baseball squad, was named NAIA Diviaion I Player of the Week for April 2·11 as he went .401 in the hitting department and led the team defensively at 8eCOnd base. "His leadership by eumple and par­ ticipatioD is ODe of his strong points," said Head Coach Larry Mar.Jhall. "He's a hani worker and very talented. No doubt about that., . Leach say:!! baseball i:!! just an outlet to glorify the Lord. "I go out and play for His ,dory:' Leach explained. "I try to glotiU' �he Lord in ev�rything 1 do and baseball is just one way of doing that." Baseball was an early pastime of Leach, who started as a four·yeaNlld in the Tacoma little League program. He played four years for Wilson High in Tacoma before coming to Pacific Lutheran. He played backup shortstop in his fir!Jt season in a Lute Uniform before switching to second base when MarshaU became coach. Leach did not commit a !Jingle error hi:!! entire sophomore year and remained unblemished until the end of his junior year when he was moved to third base. Leach attributes his success to the Lord and to his dad, Dan Leach. "My dad was always there to help me out when I was small. He helped teach and counsel me." remembered Leach. On the collegiate diamond, Leach has been a leader n i nearly every department ,.,

a gradual improvement," Marshall said. "One of his strongest assNS is that he has such quick hands," Marshall said. "As a coach, I hope every ball is hit to him because it's an automatic out. He appear.! to have a weak arm, but actual· ly he ha:!! a :!!urpri:!!ing arm. He hu the ability to make the diving play and get up to make thethrow." "His personal dwe fOf excellence is something that makes him stand out. He gain!J a great deal of motivation and drive for a shot at pro baseball. There's a lot of interest with pro scouts with Gregg," Mafshall said. Leach has been a (orce in the hitting department for the Lute!J, !J contender in the Northw�t Conference hunt for a playoff spot. "When I go up to hit the ball, l Uke to focu.s on the ball." Leach explained. "It helps to have an aggressive state of mind. 1 always like to hit the ball hard. ..

Leach said the Lutes are aiming for a position n i playoff!J. "Teamwork is what s i going to make or break us...and con­ sistency ondJense. That's what mak� us great. There's 25 guys out there play­ ing and making things happen," Leach said. "Basically our ballclub is very, very, very close," Mar:!!hall said. "There's a lot of cohesivenes!J there. I guess you could say there's a lot of love amongst our team and Gregg is the center of . . that." Leach has also been selected to one of three Athletes .in Action·spon.sored teams scheduled to tour westeTn Europe this summer beginriing n i May and in· cluding a 45-day achedule.

Divestment resolution approved

A Cinderella story

by Sonja O.trom Mast staff reporter The South Ahica resolution approved Monday by the Board of Regents was the most heavily debated issue of the regents aesaion, said ASPLU President, Bruc:eDeal The approved resolution calls for im­ proved education and awareness of in­ dividua1s: and corporations of the South Ahican situation and an CJ[amination of the university investment fU'Ill to detef'­ mine which holding of U.S. companies are known to do business in South

Africa.

'the resolution also called for the and university administration to explore investment aI�nat.ive!l with the university's n i vestment finn, and to act upon prudent alternatives that might be discovered. The University ad· ministration will then be responsible for presenting the fllldings of the investiga· tion·and any action taken to the Board of Regents ilt its next mooting in September, l9B6, The original resolution brought to the Board. by the Finance Committee was not worded strong enough, said Deal. who also !IBid that the Student Life Committee came up with an amendment of their own which later replaced the original resolution n i the general session, " 1 wish the final resolution would have been worded a little bit stronger," Deal said, "but J knew that if it was too strong the Regents wouldn't approve it, It wa!! a compromise position, but it was not as weak a.s te original" he said, President Rieke said that in his open. ing report to the Regents he requested every alanding committee consider the apartheid s I sue though IictKln would come out of the Finance Committee. In reference to the shanty to....n coali­ tion, Rieke said that he brought studenta' resolution materials as a per90n becauae he had promised to. but not a.s a president becau!18 proper channels weren't followed, he said.

Fen i l i den ies review board request by Carla T. SevaU! Mast Siall reporter ASPLU executives from the past two terms presented a document April 9 to Mary lr;:tu Fenili, vice president for Stu­ dent Life, which questioned her job per­ formance at PLU. The documen� called for Fenili's con­ sent for a university review board that would evaluate her working relationship with ASPLU and her role as a student life advocate. Although the request was denied by Fenili. 8 compromise has been w«ked out between the ASPLU represen­ tatives, Fenili and University President William Rieke, The compromise established plans for a student attitude survey and wl'C!kly mootings betwoon ASPLU President Bruce Deal and Io'cnili, The executives began work on the document in early April. Jennifer Hub­ bard. former ASPI.U vicc president, said that allhough all the executives were involved in the early discussions, Shaw and Deal initiated the call for a review board. Hubbard !IBid thllt not all of the ex, ecutives "played an active role in writing the document. 1 wasn't there the night they put it together," she !IBid, Before pruenting the document to Fenili, the ezecutives met with Rieke, who, acoording to Deal, encouraged them to go through the proper channels and meet direCtly with Fenili.

Fenili's consent was needed to initlat.e the review, although Rieke had the power to veto Fenili's decision or establish a review independently. Both Rieke and Fenili refused to cooperate with ASPLU's request to establish a review board. Delli said that he a.sswned they had Rieke's support and that a review board was the correct way to deal with the problem. "Rieke indicated a review committee is the way the univcrsity handles a pro­ blem like this," Deal said. Rieke said that initially, "they fASPLUI caught meso flat., and so much by surprise, that my only reaction was 'Hey, let's get !Jack in channcls with this. You go back and talk to Dr, Fenili, and begin there.' " Rieke said he understands why the ex­ ecutives' misunderstood his position on the review committee, At one point, he explained, he told the ezecutives that the review board ques­ tion was still "an open one," He added, "I also indicated that that was not my preference. " Had they known Fenili and Rieke would tum do.wn the request, former ASPLU comptroller Lynnette Shaw, said ASPLU would not have assembled the document " If it was going to �a compromise situation, then why didn't we just do the survey, not the i'llview?" Shaw uked, Hubbard withdrew her support of the document before last Friday'a meet.ir-B

Hubbard said she thought the docu­ ment or the review request. were positive approaches, "I didn't see it as necessary or something that would benefit the university," she said. ''I'm concerned about the way it was handfed from the beginning, regardless of who intitiated the actual mootings." Fenili said she refused the review re­ quest because she did not think pro­ blems would b;e solved by sitting n i a committee, talking about the, fact the problems existed. "I'm not sure that a review committee could provide any further illumination on the issues," Fenili explained. "What they might do would be to underscore an issue.

Presidential Forums pave the way for new curriculum by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter The succes9 of PLU's Pre3idential Forum Series has opened plans for ac· credited academic classe3 based on forum topic3. said project coordinator and religion professor Bob Stivers. A grant of $70,000 n i matchlng funds from the Consortiur:l for Advancement of P. :vate Education will allow at least four c1asse3 to begin at PLU in variou3 subject area3 discussed in the three forums. Increased interest in campus discu3' sions has encouraged university officials to tentatively schedule additional forums for next year, similar to the three held this school year. The Presidential Forum Series was in· itiated thi3 year with hopes to n i crease student awareness of world·wide pro­ blems and to stimulate intellectual discussion, Stivers said. The lecture series thi9 year concen· trated on technology n i information. medicine and third·world countrie3. A fOUN:redit political science cia3S focusing on infonnation and technology, the fir3t of the three forums. will be

taught next interim by Wallace Spencer. Norris Peterson of Economics and Connie Kirkpatrick of Nursing plan to co-teach a two-crodit class n i the fall of 1987 on technology. cancer and the health care C03tS ' associated with its treatment, while Tom Carlson of biology and Dick Oluf3 of Political Science team up to teach a genetic engineering cia3s in the.springsemester of 1987. Study of technology in Third World nations will also be incorporated into the PLU integrated studies program as Ed Clausen of History and Michael Poelll;!t of Religion are expect.ed to teach in the fall. while Jack Benningham of History and Kirkpatrick of Nursing join up for an ISP class discussing the theory, cases and use of technology in history, Stivers said. In addition. a proposal for a new Presidential Forum lecture format is currently awaiting President William Rieke'ssignatunl, said Stivers. "I am strongly supporting the idea of one. if not two. forums for the next academic year." said Rieke. "I could see h.aving one each semester. while doing much of the same as this year.

Terrorism halts tour by Katherine Hedland Mast stall reporter World·wide terrorism hss forced PLU's Special Education Department to cancel this summer's European Seminar. said Dr. Kent Gerlach, chair· man of the department. Gerlach said more 3tudent3 enrolled in the seminar were growing frightened, and some had cancelled their reservations. "There seemed to be quite a bit of panic from the public." Gerlach said. The trip included traveling through Southern Spain and Italy which wa3 worrying soml:'! 'of the participants. he . J said. Earlier chanies' had been made in the cJt Mid t.he department itinerary.

Gerlach said that n i terest n i the tour had dropped. "We just weren't get· ting the numbers we needed," he said. "People are jU3t real fearful of going to Europe." he said. "There are just too

"The past two tours were very suc· ceS3ful," Gerlach said. He hopes to offer another seminar next summer.

"Our programs are not located in what are clearly danger areas," Carr said. Some students and parents have voic· ed concern about traveling abroad but none have cancelled their plans. she said.

The proposal calb for two forums dur­ ing the 1986-87 academic year, each to be held on a Wednesday from 10 a.m. un· til noon. Rieke said he would like to see con· tinuation of sub-themes for forums in the near future, with the possibility of examining the entire meaning of a liberal arts education n i society in a long·term time frame. "The PLU presidential forums had two very important aspects," said Stivers. " First of all, it is important thst PLU have forums like this on campU3 to stimulate intellectual thought and.

Regents adopt divestment policy �frompagel and thorough process that led to the conclusion." Rieke said. The regents took the decision very easily and debated it in 'each committee before the plenary gess.ions, he said. "We need to know about our portfolio to make our next level of decisions," sadi Regent Frank Jennings, who a.Iso explained several rt!aSOns why the iS3ue of divestment is complex. "We only own mutual funds with many other investors." Jennings said, "and they are managed on a daily basis." Jennings explained that the commit· tee needs to meet with the investment fInn. Frank Russel of Tacoma. to know what's n i the university's portfolio and determine which COmpanie3 do have a business presence in South Africa. and which companies do not. "We do not have that infonnation now," he said. Rieke's reaction to approval of the resolution was that it "certainly demonstrates their genuine concern about the issue," he said. " 1 think that the decision was the only practical one the Board could make at this time," he saId. � Other business addressed at the Regents sessions Monday included ap­ proval of the bigge3t budget in the university's history, said Vice President of Finance and Operations, Perry Hendrick3.

Fen i l i to concentrate on f i n d i ng solutions by C.rI. T. Snail! Mast staff reporter

Mary Lou Fenili, vice president for Student Life, said that although she believes there are some people within the university who want her resignation, she has no plaw to resign, After' receiving a confidential docu· ment April 9 from ASPLU requC8ting a revie board evaluation of her perfor­ mance at PLU, Fenili I18.id she has been experiencing a great deal of tension, Some of that pressure was released last Friday when she turned down the review request, hoping instead to flDd solutions rather than underlCOre pro­ blems, she said. ASPLU President Bruce Deal said that the executives are concerned about Fenili's role u a atudentlife advocate on campus. claiming that student ac­ cesaibility to her is limited, that she displays a lack of courtesy when inform· ing the executives about decisions and policiea, and that there is a lack of tn.l!t and respect. between her and the oecutives. Although Fenili has begun meeting weekly with Deal and Working on a stu· dent attitude survey about her perfor. mance, she said she still feels those at· tempts at reconciling problems may not be enough for those who would like to see her leave PLU, For the time being however, she said, "I'm relieved about the fact that I can get back on the track of doing con.!Jtruc· tive things to provide services to students," In turning down the review board re­ quest, Fenili &aid that the respon9ibility to evaluate the performance of • staff member rests with that staff member's superior. "Suggesting that a review committee is neceM&ry for an officer of the univer' sity la to suggest that the president is not doing hia job," abe said.

Fenili said she does not think ASPLU meant to que!ltion Pre!lident Rieke's capabilities, She said, however, that the officers were reacting to "a variety of issues of which they had incomplete knowledge 01' information." Fenili said the ASPLU document raises "old business" that sbowd have been addressed initially, but wss not. "If there are student concerns about the way the vice president for student life does her job, hudone her job, will do her job, those concerns can be expressed in a variety of ways," she said, "I'm not that a review �rnmft� cowd pros �y further illwrunatlon on the IHues :. . . 881d that If the ASPLY U· ecutlVes had been more thorough ID the preparation of the document, a review board would not. have heen an issue.

"It's easy for your staff to ask you to be the heavy," Fenili said she is not sure whether the general student body feels as though they have communication problems with her, or whether it is just ASPLU's concern. "Certainly students in ASPLU in' teract with me in a wsy most of the stu­ dent body docs not. ASPLU's interac· tion with me tends to be in a very nar­ row, limited way," Rieke said that if a student 9ur\'ey in· dicates the need for a review board, "the door is open," and he wOl.:ld encourage the executives to talk with him. "I .....ouldn't at this point commit to any review board, but neither would preclude it. So, in other words. it's lin op' tion," Rieke said. Deal said, "If people feci differently, if they don't think II review ould be a healthy thing, they should come talk to us." Rieke sllid he knows that both Fenili and the executives, "ha\'e come a long way n i trying to work in some mode that isn't confrontational." "I think it'.!J going to be tough:' said Rieke.

Shaw said. "It was not n i tended to be used to make any decisions on," Deal said, "but rather, just to illustrate genuine concerns," "We really weren't trying to draw con· clusions," he continued, "We were try. ing to illustrate perceptions, and I think that'.!J where the problems stut... She's saying 'they didn't do their homework.' In effect, she's saying that student perceptions are invalid ...She doesn't take student perceptions seriously," Deal said there is a general feeling of intimidation held by students in ap­ proaching Fenili, "Students are scared to see the direc­ tor of Student Life." he said. "To me that is a problem, It's a perception, not a fact..,yet it indicates something is wrong," "I think students shouldn't have to treat the Student Lifeoffice like it's the principal'soffice," Shaw said, Several of this year's and last year's executives n i dicated that a lack of com· munciation between Fenili and ASPLU has led to problems. In the document sent to Fenili, the eight Pll.st and prescnt ASPLU ex, ecutive pointed to several n i dications of problems within the Student Ure office. The document indiCll.tes that Fenili "has attempted to manipulate ASPLU Senste mooting� and has refused to recognize the Senate's authority" Ilnd thst she has "publicly and privately humiliated certain ASPLU officers," The document also indicat.e9 a mutus.1 lack of trust between ASPLU's officers and Fenili, and a failure on Fenili's pan to adsqusteiy "represent student opi· nion, feeling and welfare." which is part of the job description for Student Life vice president, Also included in the document is a stu' dent's account of a t.eiephone conversa·

"If I was (university) president and that had happened to other students I would probably take some kind of action, I think if I were (university) pre!!ident, I may even consider firing her," "I'm glad we got a compromise," said fonner ASPLU Vice President Jennifer .

John Can, ASPLU vice president, said he doesn't know where the te-m "witch hunt" originated, and that he hopes "this misperception can be aUeviated," The eight past and present ASPLU executives indicated both in the docu· ment and during interviews that they hold no personal grudge against Fenili, but that they see inadequacies in her performance, "I think one good thing that'.!J coming out of this s i that she's realizing how im· portant her sincere support and en­ couragement to the organization of ASPLU really is and that she i.!J oeeded more n i an advocative supportive role than as a pU9her and a motivator," said former ASPLU President Laurie Soine, " If she Wenilil continues to seek to im· prove her image, she can begin to im· prO\'e the perceptions students have concerning beT," Soine said, "It's going to be a lon&, long road," she added, "and I think ahe realiz.es it, and we realize it, No one expects a cure overnight,"

Polish defecter to discuss 'threat of communism' by Stuart Rowe

Mast staff reporter Poland's former IUTlbassador and highest·ranking officiaJ to defect, Romuald Spasowski, will speak at PLU in an exclusive appearance 7:30 p.m., May 7 intheCK. Spasowski, 65, wu Deputy Foreign Minister before he became the am· bassador tn the United States. He also was ambassador to Argentinn, India and the United States. On December 19. 1981. he asked for politicai llsylum n i Washington, D.C. for he and his family. After it wee granted. Spasowski and his family packed up and left the ambassadorial residence in Washington for an FBI .safe house on Dec. 20, according to an article in The

Wa.shil'lgtotl Post.

The Wa.shil'lgtotl Post reported Spasowski said, "I had to be free to witness. to give testimony to what the

Communists have done to Poland." He defected siz daya alter martial law was declared in Poland. In August 1982, Polish General We; jciech Jaruhelski's government sentenc· ed Spasowski to death if he returns to Poland. Jan Parker, admirtiatrative associate n i the social sciencea department which is co-sponsoring this event with the AssociatOO Students Lecture Series, said that Spasowski will be specifically addressing two subjects in his address: ·'The Threat of Communism··, and ··Poland a9 a Captive Nation··. ·'J"m sure he will also be talking about his defection,·· she said. Spasowski was born n i Warsaw in 1920, to a father who was considered a great Communist philosopher and political theorist. His father, distraught by the Soviet·s treatment of Poland, later committed suicide.

Barker said Spasowski grew up in a Communist family, never questioning Communism. In his autobiography, The Uberotil:m otOnl, he tells of his childhood and how he moved up through the Communist ranks. Barker said, ·'He has lived a long and dramatic career. We're very fortunate to have someone of his stature here." According to The Kirkus Reviews, Spasowski's son committed suicide at the age of 19 when he was unable to resolve conflicts between his own idealism and his father's hypocrisy. After defecting, Spasowski and his wife Wanda lived in hiding until he wrote the book telling his story. He said, "If they kill me now it

doesn·t matter. I have survived to write the truth of my life, my father's, and my son's. Itisa sad book." A review by The ChiCCJgo Tribune said, "His autobiography affords everyone the opportunity to relive and sense the drama, the frustration and the harsh reality of political life in socialist Eastern Europe." Harcourt Brace Javanovich. publishers of Splisowski'a book is not only the intensely vivid story of one man's personal journey and political awakening: it is a swooping epic of modern Poland."

PLU chemists display latest research projects by Clayton Cowl Mast staff reporter Six Pacific Lutheran University chemistry majors were among the 23 keynote speakers at the American Sym­ posium held April 26. in the Rieke Science Center. The symposium, the first of its kind on campus, allows students from area colleges and universities to present the latest in independent chemical research. Pacific Lutheran and Seattle Univer­ sities

afrtliate organizations with the American Chemical Society's Puget Sound division. Steve Keller, a PLU senior, collected t.op research honors for his work on cyclic phenol compounds using Fourier­ Transform infrared spectroscopy. Ted Pilot of Seattle University won the award for Best Presentation. Keller's work on infrared spec­ was conducted last summer at

American Chemical Society's Polymer Divison, but he plans to contbue his work this summer thorough newly allocated funds from the Ben Cheney Memorial Fund of Tacoma. Since 1978, interpretations of vibra­ tional movements of cyclic phenols came through nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, a method of measuring vibational movements of molecules by giant magnetic fields. Keller said. ' His

ly directly related to the configuations of cyclic compounds in solution. The meeting featured a separate in­ organic and biochemical section for the first time so that 23 papers could be presented n i the one-day event, said William Giddinga. the aytnposium coordinator. "I we!! very pleased with the entire symposium," said Giddings, chairman of the PLU chemistry department. "The number and quality of the papers were very impressive." Meetings of chemists on a nationa! basis is commonplace, Giddings said. The papers presented on a professional level are very similar to the undergraduate symposiums to com­ municate the latest research and results more quickJy than through written media_ PLU chemistry students Doug Grider, Keller, Donna Carter, Greg Schuster, Kate Schnarre, Sheila Swan­ son and Dennis Nichols aU presented topes on their research work. "Of course, I was really excited about winning the award," Keller grinned. "My presentation went about the best it's gone year. Both Doug (Grider) and I had practia!d with Dr. !Fred) Tobiason earlier n i the week which helped out a lot." Keller said the hardest part about giv­ ing bis lecture was knowing what to cut out_ "It makes it a lot easier to have had (chemistry) seminar," Keller said of PLU's requiNld upper division class which begins with an independent study and ends in a 45-rninute presentation_ _ PLU students had to eliminate over � two-thirds of their previously collected f.) material for the undergraduate § symposium... >. "I talked to a guy from U-Dub (University of Washington) and he said >. they didn't have a seminar porgram there," said Keller_ "It doesn't '0 necessarily mean we have better pro­ -a. jects. but we needed more what we needed to do. PLU students are more polished."

Ihe Mast,.May 2, 1986

Where's the party? Last year not one member of the junior class ran for an ASPLU ex­ ecutive position, leaving the field open to freshmen and sophomores. This year those juniors are seniors, and are on the verge of committing the most blatent act of apathy yet at PLU­ neglecting to organize a senior party. Traditionally PLU seniors look forward to the month of May because of the excitement of graduation. May has also brought the traditional senior party. But unless some enterprising group of seniors decide to carry on that distinguished PLU tradition, an era will come to an end. Last year's senior class celebrated their four years at PLU with a well·organized bash at Tacoma's Elks' Club that Included a com· plete wet bar and a DJ'd dance . Most of us will probably survive without a senior party, and no one would argue thai It Is an essential component of a college education, but do we want to be the first class in recent years at PLU to break that kind of a tradition? -David Steves

The Soviet Union stands to gain from this if the United States continues to support a government that ill immoral and illegal according to the values our society is founded on. When the majori. ty in South Africa finally does come to power they will look back and a!!k whose side·we were on. That s i what make!! divestment so im­ portant. For years now our government and oW" industrial !!OCiety has been ac­ tively and passively supporting the apartheid system. Some people say dive!!tment ill wrong and that it will force millions of blacks out of work. This s i not true. Divest­ ment means transferring holding from a company that does business in South Africa, profitting from the system of apartheid. Disinvestment, on the other - hand means that a U.S. compnay would pull all its operations of South Africa. This might have the effect some describe, but that is not what the Boant of Regents voted to act on. Divestment is, at this stage. purely a moral stance and not an economic weapon. There is no good reason for .s0meone oppo!led to apartheid not to divest.

Lelterl Student J udicial System 'encourages crime,' needs reform To The Editor: The Student Judicial System current­ ly n i place at PLU is at best n i effective and at worst encourages crime. . Three recent cases clearly demonstrate the need to reform the cur· rent Student Judicial System. Details of each n i cident are omitted because of concerns regarding confidentiality. It is a little after 4 a.m. on a weekend moming. A Campus Safety officer observes two persons peering into cars and attempting to use a slim jim (a device used by CST thieves to quick entry n i to a car) on a vehicle in a univer· sity parking lot. The officer stops the two individuals and attempts to determine why they are tl}'ing to break nto i a car that neither one of them owns. The case was referred to Student Life because both per!Kms were (and are) PLU students. The two students couJd in the "rea)

gain

world'-' be charged with two separate crimes: possession of a burglary tool and motor vehicle prowl PLU's judicial system instead m i posed the sanction of jeopardy (deferred suspension). It is a little after 2 a.m. on a weekday moming. A Campus Safety offi.::er observes two individuals running from an academic building. A person also calls Campus Safety to report that two individuals have just broken n i to the building. Campus Safety chased, snd eventually caught, the two individuals. Because the two individuals were students, the case was again referred to Student Life. The result: despite the fact that both students had been involved n i several cases of vandalism, the two individuals were given deferred expulsion. A student deliberately sets off a fire alarm by spraying water into a dorm smoke detector. The result that an en' tire donn is forced to evacuate the

is

building and 30,000 persons are left without fire protection whi l e the Parkland Fire Department responds to the fire alarm. The punishment imposed by the Of· fice of Student Life was for the Hall Director to have a heart to heart talk with the student involved. I would contend that in all three ases the interests of the university communi· ty were not served. Because aU student judicia) hearings are conducted n i private and because PLU insists on imposing sanctions that are incredibly disproportionate to the crime committed it is time to reform the Student Judicia] System. I propose a determinate sentencing program that would impose sanctions

It is somewhat of an understatement to say that students at PLU are not too well aware of what goes on outside of . our "Lutedome". This moderately apathetic and almost always simple­ minded attitude was never more obvious than in re8pOll9Il to the U.S. bombing of Libya. Opinions ranged from open an' tagonism to naive pacifism and were prevalent from Harstad Hall to Evergreen CoW'l, and even to The This type of behavior one might ex· pect from Homer Podunk of Nowhere. North Dakota. Conversely, one would hope for a little more sophisticated thinking from a college undergraduate. and certainly one would expect a more intelligent line of thought from a college paper such as The But if the arti· cle "Terrorism: a game two can play" by Mast columnist Mark Schroeder is an example of the quality of political repor­ ting at The it is apparent that The not taking the time to examine fully the questions that revolve around a foreign policy decision such as the bom· bing of Libya. If PLU studetna are to become aware of world events (as I believe they should) The must first offer more complete and sophisticated reporting and then encourage the kind of scholarly debate that is vital to foreign policy thought. Mr. Schroeder was correct in satiriz· ing the simplified statement! prevalent at PLU. He also asked some very good questions, ones that are necessary to the formulation of foreign policy decisions such as, "What was Qadbafi supposed to learn from all this? How we as a nation morally justify this act? Did we acheive anything by attacking Libya?" But when addressing thege questions Mr. Schroeder employed over-simplified and unworkable examples and came out with an op�nion that was not well thought and in some places ill·founded. He called NATO a non'aligned move­ ment, which is completely false. He cor· stated that Libya has the highest per capita income and military expen· diture in Africa. Mr. Schoeder claimed that Col. Qadhafi can easily afford to �build his bombed-out bases. But

But my biggest complaint with Mr. Schroeder's article stems from the fact that he didn't adequately deal with the questions he asked and he didn't ask probably the most fundamental and most often forgotten question concern· ing Libya, "What is the goal of our foreign policy in Libya?" If Qadbafi is an ezporter of terrorism and a menace to the free world (as almost everyone agrees he is) then it should be the goal of the U.S. and the West to get rid of him, or at least do what we can to halt his terrorism. The problem of dealing with Qadhafi not a new one. Europe has had to deal with bullies before-Napoleon, Hilter, etc. The problem that with the e.zception of England's Tories, Europe has not learned that appeasement only breeds aggreson. si The Munich Pact of 1939 is a classic example.

Certainly killing is wrong. That not at issue here. The point that it is not the only issue. Mr. Schroeder failed to examine the incredibly complex rnatri.z of decisions and outcomes that were in· volved. To combat terrorism and other fOnDS of aggression innocent people 8r9 going to die. That is a fact of life. What we hope is that there will be fewer dead and that as a result of the action taken the aggression will be halted, and action will not be needed in the future. Don't get me wrong, I'm not ad· vocating military force as a standby reaction to terrorism. Like Secretary Schultz has said, "We will judge each situation as it goes," But in the case of the terrorist bombing of the West Berlin nightclub resulting in the killing of U.S. servicemen, Libya was clearly identified as the instigator, and military and lef'­ rorist targets were clearly identified within Libya. With these facts in mind. President Reagan took the appropriate action by ordering the air raid on Libya. That s i why almost every member oftbe U.S. Congress including House Speaka­ Tip O'Neil supports the president on his action. Members of the liberal Western press including Mr. Schroeda- have sharply criticU.ed the President claiming that his action wi! only rally support for Qadhafi and inspire more terrorism. What they fail to see is that Col. Qadhafi has been giving the West just about as much hell as he can muster. Absurd as it may sound it is just not too easy to find qualified terrorists. One must be crazy enough to do the job and intelligent enough to pull it off.

How valuable is your

Liberal Arts degree?

Grads must sell work-related skills to employers in a competitive job m arket

by Brian DalBalcon

Mast projects editor What good is knowing that AlelUlnder the Great defeated the Persians in 334 B.C. when you are trying to land an assistant marketing position with Weyerhaeuser. Or being able to distinguish between the philosophies of Plato and Socrates when all you really want is that saJes position with Nordstrom. What good is a liberal arts degree in the 1986 job market? "A lot", say college counselors and employers. Although many liberal arts students do not always recognire the value of what they have leamed, they have ac­ quired quite a wealth of practical skills while earning their degrees. And it is how well a liberal arts graci marketa that d� that will make or break in the job market. "A liberal arts education is not an easily defined degree, " said Laurie Noonburg, recruiting ooordinator and career counselor in PLU's Career Ser­ vices office:o.1 t b ec an � � � n :g "Liberal lrts student.!! have difficulty witli careef'decision':;:tl Selling yOUrself to'tbe employer is the ultimate goal of ' any jolHleeking graduate. And marketing yourself and your degree� effeclively is one crucial area where many liberal arts students fail Noonburg outlined a stl"ategy liberal arts graduates can follow to that fU"stjob and begin that career path.. In marketing himself, the liberal arts graduate oftentimes does not realize the skills he has gained. "He must first raise his awareness of the skills he has," said Noonburg. He can do this by examining what he done the past four or five years in col­ lege classes and activities, and what resources he used and developed to get the job done. (See related story, this

page.)

The individual must then identify oc' cupations that call for those skills, as well as careers that interest . "He must identify occupations that are related to his individual personality and style. He must know his strengths and weaknesses before he chooses a career," Noonburg said. Lastly, the liberal arts grad must design a personal marketing strategy to

him

market those skills and begin that chosen career. "The student must com· municate his employment value to the employer.·· Noonburg said. Advantages of a liberal arts degree in· clude having a well rounded education and a willingness to leam, that employers can use to "train and mold new employees a s · they please," said Noonburg. Disadvantages mainly include lower salaries. Noonburg said of the students she has placed in jobs, those with profes­ sional degrees averaged around $30,000 a year, compared to liberal arts grads who started for around 117,000. The employer does not have to pay as much because, "he is not buying specific talent," Noonburg said. Noonburg offered some advice to liberal arts grads. "Having a liberal arts degree is not enough. You must take a few courses in such disciplines as business science, or computer something an employer can latch onto. J would call it cross-disciplinary t.rainin.g; where you link some disciplines with your liberal artadegree." This will show an employer that you are really interested in that cartler and that you "took the extra step," said Noonburg. Other ways to make yourself more tempting to an employer would include any work experience in your chosen

fi�d. This can

include inteTnships, summer jobs, volunteer experience or part-time jobs during the school year. "You have got to get that practical ex' perience and get out and make thoae contact8 in the community," Noonburg said. She said students should also get . career counseling early in their college cartler8. "Freshmen need to start plann· ing their careers right away. Students should not wait till senior year." Noonburg added that career planning can come from either the Career Plann­ n i g and Placement Office or a student's advisor or parents. The liberal arts student should also work to gain some lead{'l'ship and com' munica ion>!: skills. This can be done through joining student or dorm govern· ment, and/or heading university clubs or committees. In the job market game, it is not so much what the liberal arts graduate knows, but how he markets his skills to make him look valuable to a prospective employer, said Noonburg.

Liberal arts majors abo gain other skills that are marketable to employers. One just needs to look at the work and activities that have kept him running around campus to see the value of his liberal arts education. Writing all those research papers develops the ability to organize thoughts and communicate them on paper, as well as a proficiency in criticaJ thinking and analysis. Organizing parties, dances, and study groups develops the ability to cooperate, supervise and motivate a group of people-key skills needed for any manager. "These are human relations skills, Lhings that make a team run," said Alhstrom. Holding any university or club office, however informal, tesehes leadership and skills in organization, planning, im· plementation. "Many. companies abo value a person's ability to use his creativity to solve problems," said Ahlstrom. Liberal arts students also learn time management skills in college. Ahlstrom said, "When students have to do 80 many things at the same time, they learn to juggle their schedules and organize their time very well." "Students need to identify their skills, know their stren.gtM and what they are good at," said AhltItrom. "They also have to do their research and know what jobs are out there.

The performances began last night and include scenes from various operas including " Cinderella," " Peter Grimes," "The Marriage of Figaro," and "The Old Maid and the Thief," "The Old Maid and the Thief' is a comedy, Two spinsters, played by Cathy Milburn and Denise Smith, and their maid tKrystal Shoop) accidentally disrobe a young man tDavid Sannerudl who comes to their house, "The productions are very colorful and funny," said Barbara Poulshock, music instructor and opera workshop coach at PLU, Poulshock said she feels that tonight's scenes could be some of the best ever written, The opera workshop is a required class for all vocal and music education ma­ jors. The· students no� only, perform n i two or three parts for the final show, but they also make their own costumes and sets, They are n i volved in "every aspect of production," said Poulshock. , This class has changed many minds about opera, said sophomore Cathy Milburn, "I hated opera, but 1 love it now, Peo­ ple don't understand so they don't enjoy it," she said, Junior Lisa Robinson agreed,

"I took the class, but I didn\ expect it to be fun." The class also shows how difficult it can be to perform opera. "You have to walk out every little step to get it down,'· said Milburn, She also said that you have to put your own feelings into it. The entire produciton has about 22 people involved, said Poulshock, with nine principles and a chorus, Besides the PLU students, the opera has people from outside the school. Krystal Shoop, a professional singer and voice teacher, has performed in the opera workshop for seven years, Cathy Svajdlenka, a Federal Way student also takes part in the production. She por­ trays a young boy who is n i love with the Countess in "The Marriage of Figaro:' Poulshock said they get people from the community when PLU students are not available. "When we need an old person, we get an old person. When we need a tenor, we get a tenor." One of the problems the performers had to deal with was that there is only one male in the class. "It was very hard to find scenes." said Poulshock. Though most 01 the students have never acted in an opera before, PouJshock said that the performance seems to be one of the best s.he has d:rected. The audience will be seated on st.age, making a more intimate setting, said Poulshock. Admission to tonight's production is free.

Review: Van Hagar rocks by Dan Sorgen Mast reporter

"What? You mean to tell me that Van Halen is breaking up?'·' "David Lee Roth is going to try to act n i a movie inspired by his 'Craz.y From the Heat' EP1'· ·'Boy George is joining Motley Crue?" or the rumors that circulated last summer, thank goodness that only the first one came true. Actually, Van Halen didn't break up suffer the 88ID6 fate as the Beatles or Led They just disposed of vocalist David Lee Roth who decided to "pursue his own sing­ n i g and acting career," Replacing Roth is a man of many talents, the Red Rocker himself, Sam­ my Hagar. This new lineup and the band's new album "5150" has brought about quite a bit of con· troversy. In a recent edition of Todo.y, drummer Alex Van Halen said, ·'It took us a long time to get a real Van Halen together, Now, we've finally got one." Released on March 24, "5150" was viewed by most people as an attempt to replace old Van Halen; a style that just simply couldn't be duplicated. But its quick climb up the charts to become t.he number one album in the nation has proved that Van Halen has combined their vast amount of talent to achieve a new sound that rivals that of old Van Halen.

,

The album is staying steady at No, 1 on Billboard Magazine's Top Rock Album Chart for the third week. About the band's new sound, Hagar said in Todo.y, ·'A lot of people say it's too commercial when you have a good beat, a good melody, You're getting too mainstream Well, a garage band can have a lot of raw energy. We have the raw energy and the songwriting ability, ("6160·' has) a real hard edge, but it does have sens.itivit." And sensitivity it ("5150") has. With hit singles '·DreaID5" and "Love Walks In" Van Halen &ploTeS the more melodic side that most heavy metal bands ignore. but they also retain the high energy sound with songs like "Why Can't This Be Love" and '·BestofBoth Worlds."

USA

The energy in this album can be felt through Hagar's vocals and, of course, Eddie Van Halen's licks, The listener gets a sense of uni­ ty from the band with positive songs and melodies reflecting that. Since the departure of Roth, Van Halen has achieved stability, if not advancement, in their music. Hopefully we are in for another near decade of chart busting albums. The 'Jne thing "5150" definitely does is grow on listeners, Whether you're a dedicated Van Halen listener or not, this album is definitely worth your time and money,

Lutes s h a re league honors with Wh i t m a n byJlmmy Brazil Mast sports editor

The Pacific Lutheran tennis team is closing the gap on the Whitman Mis· sionaries one step at. a time. After dropping two matches in regular season action 6-3 and 5-4, the Lutes tied the Missionaries. finishing as co-champions in the Northwest Con­ ference of Independent CoUege tourna­ ment n i Portland, Ore. The tournament, which was plsyed in flights (all players of the same ranking compete against each other), resulted in five championships for PLU. The netten also had six <D'lfrrxltations with rival Whitman, winning four.

"I hope we are ready for Whitman at. District because they will be a formidabk> . contender," said coacb Mike BelllM)n. No. 2 seed Randal Stradling was a winner, three matches en route to his " weekend of the � season." Benson said.. No. 3 seed Jeff Allen al50 notched a victory. it was his best play of tbe &eaSOn. "It was a really good win," Allen said.. No. 6 seed Jay Struss continued in his winning ways (16-3), grabbing aU three matches en route to a flight victory.

E:tamples of the Lutes scheduling ac· curacy Stradling and Allen, both coming increasingly closer to their potential. Both players had their most prodUctive performances to date at the NCIC tourney.

In doubles action, the Allen-5truss pair played ike"a l weU-oiled machine, winning their flight in convinc· ing fashion. The match was interestingly played in II gymnasium which "made the ball (travell fast and low," Struss sa.id. The Allen·Struss duo lost t.he first set 6-7 and won t.he second 6-4. Down by a 4·1 in the decisive third set, the pair rallied back, five st.raight. for the vict.ory. Coach Benson, unsatisfied with some of PLU's doubles matchups, switched the no. I·and 2 . Benson reported that the new partnerships are tern· porary and he is "nut sure which way he will go." The new combinations are Stradl­ ing Koessler in the no. 1 position and Tom Pet.erson-Jonathan Schultz playing no. 3 seed. The new doublll!l partners played in the conference tourney, both winning two of three matches. To qualify for the National Champion' ship tournament in Kansas City, the nett.ersmust win the NAJA District I ti­ tle this weekeI\.d in Ellenaburg. PLU has won tbe past 10 Diatrict 1 titles and will be coupled with Whitman as tourney favorites. "I feel Whitman has a very strong but we (PLU) feel closer team now,"(compared to earlier in the season) Benson said. District. I tournament which began yesterday and runa through Sun­ day, will be "really cloae." Allen said. The Lutes will al50 have to deal witb the MissionAry' fan.s which tend to flock to the courts in support.of their telllD. The fact that only one District 1 school qualifies to nationals adds an ex· citing dimension to this weekends net session. "District is very exciting because we only have one weekend to qualify (for nationals)."

Touching bases PLU's Kevin Iverson is currently in the midst of preparing for a career as a profession81 soccer player, while playing semi'professionally for F.C. Seattle in the Western Alliance soc. cer league. The tall, blond soccer buff from Spanaway Lake High School scored a F.C. SeatUe'a 3·2 loss against Canada'a World Cup team in the opening game of the season last week. F.C. Seattle competes against Ed· monton, Portland, Holl""oOO. Los Angeles and San J0ge which make up theWest.emAlliance conference. Last year, the team was considered

goal in

professional. but management forced the Seattle team to convert to gemi·

professional status. F.C. Seattle offered Iverson a con· tract last year. but be rejected the of­ fer to save hiB eligibility at PLU. He settled on playing for F.C. Tacoma, a to the Seattle squad. The question arises, 'Will iverson's participation on the F.C. Seattle team equate into a berth in the world

feeder team

of professional soccer?' Iverson has been contacted by a number of professional organiza­ tionns including t.eams from Los Angeles, Cleveland and Kansas City. The L.A. I.azers of the Major In· door Soccer League (MISL) offered Iverson a contract earlier this season but a recent bout with numerous in· juries concerns Iverson. "The scouts were watching me as the injuries hap­ pened," Iverson said. Iverson said he belieV'es he has the tools to compete at the professional level but admits opportunity must strike. " 1 just want the chance," Iverson said. He has played with professional players for the past two years, par­ ticipating in tryouts and playing casual "pick·up" games. "I 've been playing with these guys for two years and there is no reason why I can'tcompete," 'ver80n said.

The idea of playing indoor soccer

excites Iverson. "l lilC(!'indoor soccer betlet because can get the ball, take a man on and shoot," he said. Of course it would be a pleasant convenience for Iverson to play for the Tacoma Stars.

Gifford captures NCIC tournament golf title by Carol Zitzewitz Mast staff reporter

Todd Gifford placed first and the Lute golfers finished third this week at the NCIC Tournament held near Eugene, Ore., at Tokatee Golf Coune. Gifford shot 74·77·77 for a total of 228 at the three day tournament. PLU's Dale Haar finished seventh with a 235. Second place n i individual scoring was shared by StolT Neb:Jn and Peter Fraley of Whitman with scOn!S of 229. As a team, the Lutes finished with an even score of 1200, behind Whitman with 1180 and Lewis and Clark with 1190.

''I'm not that surprised we finished third," Gifford'·said. "Lewis and Clark has been beating us all year. I am a little surprised that Whitman beat Lewis and Clark, though." "I feel good about winning," Gifford said. "but I feel all if I played just good enough to win."

"We didn't play as well 8S a team 8S we should and could have." said Bob Britt, assistant coach.

Gifford echoed his thoughts and said: "If we play at our full potential we'll be ready for District." "1 think maybe we'N! under too much pn!Ssure ri�ht now," Gifford said . "We're still a young team," Britt add· ed. Gifford and Tom Saathoff, who finished with a 246, aN! the only seniors on the team. Haar is only a freshman. "My goal right now is District," Gif· ford said. He has won back·to-back District titles and hopes to be the first golfer in District 1 to win . For the past four years, the confernce title has been won by a PLU goUer. Cur­ rent assistant coach Bob Britt beat out Gifford for the title last year.

The Pacific Lutheran women's tennis team won their sixth conference title in seven years in the Northwest Con· ference of Independent Colleges tourna· ment in Walla Walla lsst Saturday. The netters also downed Linfield 9-0 Mon· day and defeated UPS 5-4 on Tuesday. PLU claimed four solo titles and swept the three doubles matches n i the Walla Wallaconference toumey. Coach Stacia Marshall said, "I was pleased with our performance, especially the play of Carlson and Jang, playing at number one doubles. They played crisp with good volleys and good lobs." PLU will compete in the NAJA District 1 tournament in Ellensburg this weekend for an opportunity to compete in the 1986 National Championships.

Player Jolene Murphy said, "We aN! excited about district." PLU works well under pressure she said, and always seems to "rise to the occasion." She reported that the team is focused on na· tionals as an ultimate goal but are resisting the temptation to lookpast the district turnament. "UPS has a real good team and we'll see a lot of them this week, in dual ac, tion and district tournament piay:'Mur- � phy said. The dual action against UPS Tuesday ' resulted in a win that has really "he1ped thb confidence level" of the players for this weekend's do-or-die tourney east of the mountains.

Fonner PLU paster strives to assist needy by Dave Wood Mast reporter

Until last August, Ron Vignec only bought groceries for himself and his wife. Since leaving rus associate pastor position at PLU. Vignec now shops for nenrly 3.500 in his new position as pastor/director of a new Lutheran mis· sion in Salishlln, a low income communi· ty in Tacoma·seastside. Along with the obvious differences between PLU and the low·income SlIlishan, Vigue<: sees some similarities in the needs of the two communities. Viguec said the populations of PLU nnd Salishan ON:'roughly the same. He named several other simi l arities. " When you become institutionalized. eating food at the U.C. and living in the dorms. there ON:' different tensions thlln with people who live privately on the outside. So some of the problems are related.·· he said. "PlU has helped me immensely in working with institutions. with all of its departments and areas. It is like , 115 I work at Shalishan with aU its ditrerent agencies, " he added. " So it's vcry dif· fen'nt but the metaphor of institutions has helped me." he said. One of the challenges that faces Vi�,'llec is supplying the food and finan· cial assistance that many Shalishan residentsdepend on to survive. His daily stops at the Parkland Safeway and other grocery stores are pan of the effort to fill those needs. The managers and bakery people have supported him by giving him day-old bakery goods and allowing him to place a cart at the front doors for food dona· tions from the public. "Some days I get notrung and some days I gtlt a truckload:' he said. "I distribute it throughout thc day wherever I see the need." He described the situation of a 15·year-old Cambol:Lan girl as an exam· pie of one of those needs. She had just had a baby, which was followed by somc ostracision from the community. "She had absolutely nothing n i the house," Vignocadded. "A PLU faculty member heard about it and donated baby clothes. toys and other things to help out." One of the stops he makes during a routine day is at Lister Elementary School, located in Shalishan. He's proud of the school and its ro!e in

a l.uthenIn mission. the community. Inside one.gtlts a sense of the community that is so prevalent throughout Shalishan. In the hall leading to the classrooms there sits a basket of second·hand clotrung and above it a handwritten sign taped to the wall: "Free Clothes, Please Tak......

Inside one of the rooms there is a free adult course being taught for general education diplomas (G.E.D.), an exam­ ple Vignec feels of the people attern))" ting to pull themselves out of their situation. "The object of the course may be to get. their G.E.D.s," Vignoc ex­ plains. "but the hidden agenda is economic development. It's almost im· possible to get a job without at least a G.E.D." Vignec said, Salishan is a place where PLU studcnt!! are trying to make a dif· ference. Student!! from various depart­ ments have been volunteering their time to help teach their spcialties and it's paid off. Their presence has resulted in a moce

interesting course and as a result of that, larger attendance. As Vigne<: moves through Lister and greets thc staff and faculty, he searches their eyes until the mask is dropped and the casual reply to his, "How are you?" is impossible. The man cares. His office is located n i the Eastside Neighborhood Center, the heart of the Shalishan community. It's a small cubi· cle just big enough for his desk and pic· tures of his family but its location has been valuable to his work there. "We're hoping to gtlt more and more volut.eers from PLU out here to help with the meals and maybe go on from there to get involved in the one-on-one program," Vignec said. The one-on-one program is through .the Lutheran Church and allows the volunteer to establish s relationship with a c:hlId within the community. "I can also envision PLU ItUdents becoming more involved in food collec­ tion and distribution, something that they have already been doing and which has really helped," Vignoc said.

Lou Horton, director of Alpha House, a drug and alcohol treatment center in Shalishan, recognius the importance of the PLU volunteers. "The feeding pro­ gram was developed not only to provide meals but also thc nurture culturi1.8tion and behavior models. Because we have never had a good composition of paid staff and voluteers, we have oAly provided a meal" Horton said. "In the process. the dignity of that meal twln't always been the greatest-·· He added, "With the conaistency of the coming of the PLU students, it pr& vides for a richer environment for the people n i volved in the program." Pastor Vignec sees a barrier that has been built between the poor and the rest of the world and sees a need. to destroy it. "When PLU students come to the misaion it'a not just one-way," he said "There's an exchange that takes place and the people corne away with a better' understanding of the relltionship that ex..ists between the poor and the better . off," Vignec added.

Today's savage tan may be tomorrow's cancer by Sonja Ostrom

Mast star! reporter

Berore flaunting a beautiful. broru.e, savage tan, sunbathers should know lhat the price they pay for healthy look· ing skin color now, may be tough, leathery looking skin later, according to a publication by the American Academy of Dermatology IAADJ. The most common form of cancer is 8kin cancer, and uitraviolet radiation from the sun is the leading cause of 9kin cancer, a newsletter by the U.S. Depart· ment of Health. Education, and Welfare reported. Tanning occurs when ultraviolet 9un rays penetrate the skin to produce more melanin, which moves to the outer layers of skin and becomes a visible tan. the AAD reported. Ultraviolet A (UV·A) raY9 are one of three types of rays from the sun, said Dr. John Komorous, a Taooma der­ matologist, who said the UV-A rays cause more immediate tanning than uva rays, are len intense than UV·B rays, and don't cause sunbum. UV-A rays caUge quick color that goes away, he said. They abo caUge prolonged tann­ ing which usuaUy takes about 48 hours to show. UV·B rays have a shorter wavelength than UV-A rays, are more intense, and are the most dangerous ultraviolet rays. KomoroWJ said tbe damage from UV·B rays comes from sunbuming light and tanning light. Research has shown that UV-B raya cause pre-cancer spots, CIlnCBr spots, and photo aging, he said. UV·O rays do not cause quick tanning like the UV·A rsys, he added, as it takes several days for the tan to show, The other type of rays are UV-C rays, which are the shortest and are filtered out by the atmosphere, accerding to an article in a Solar Pacific publicatio;J.. The chances of developing a sunbum are the greatest between 10 a,m. and 3 p.m., according to AAD, because the

sun's roys are strongest at all latitudes during those hours, and that is when ex· posure to UV·B rays is most intense, Komorous .said. Komorous recommends sunscreens to protect against harmful rays, He said that there are different types of sunscreens: one type of sunscreen blocks UV-B rays but aUows for UV·A exposure, another blocks only UV·A rays, and for total protection, there is a sunscreen that block!! both UV·A and UV-B rays, he nid, The AAD also said that in addition to using a sunscreen, the safest way to tan is to do it graduaUy. Gradual exposure helps to thicken outer layer of skin. and protect inner layers from hannful sun

has shown that they cause photo aging. a condition that makes the skin wrinkl· ed. thickened, and discolored. " Nobody knows if the ultraviolet A rays in n tanning booth will cnuse cancer." he said. "because tanning booths haven't been around long enough." Komous said that there is no research which indicated that UV-A rnys cause cancer, but "just because we hnve been unable to show that UV'A rays c;nuse cancer, doesn't mean they don't." "The bottom line with using tanning booths," Komorous said, "is whether or not the person is willing to accept the photo aging they will have later in life,"

Off-campus life offers alternat ive to dorms Sonja O.trom Mast staff reporter A student's decision whether to live off-campus should be based on where they think their individual personal needs will best be met, said Jim Mischler, acting Housing Coordinator for Residential Life. According to the PLU catalog, residential living s i an integral part of the educational process at PLU, and the residence halls were constructed with that in mind, and University policy (the residency requirement) reflects the oom· mit ment to the residential concept. "It's important to live in a donn for two years. to have a wide circle of at­ quantainees," said off-campus student RandaU Stradling, "Social life off-campus just isn't as action-packed as living in the donn," he said. Stradling also said that off­ campus life provides privacy, easier stu· dying, and a quieter atmosphere for sleeping, Students who live off-campus miss a lot of information, have less interaction

UV·A does not tend to bum !lkin very easily," he said, "There is a built in safety factor with UV·A; it takClj a tremendous overexposure to bum." Even though research n i dicates UV-A rays are .safer than eXp09ure t.o intense direct sunlight, Komorous said his ad· vice regarding the use of tanning booths is to not usc them.

Mishler said that as students deter­ mine what their needs are, it is impor­ tant for them to understand and know univerisity policy. The PLU Housing Guide states that students must live on campus unless they live at borne with their parents, are at least 21 yean old. or have completed . 90 semester hours. The Residency Requirement Waiver is for students with needs," acce!'­ ding to the Housing Guide. Mischler said that students are only excused from the residency requirement in Cue9 of exceptional hardship or need. Waivers are considered on a case by case basis, M.ischler sa id. based on medical financial, religious, and other situation, "If the campus community cannot meet their needs," he said, "then they will be considered for a waiver." For students who plan to move off­ campus but do not know where to live, the Residential Life Office provides a notebook, listing available off-campus housing for PLU students. Mischler said.

The third priority for KFCS is to broadcast " extended programming." Thorne said PLU has a huge video tape library of concerts and plays. He added that he is are trying to SLart a pro­ gram that would show those tapes for students' entertainment.

Biology student receives g raduate school fellowsh i p by Katherine Hadland

Mast staff reporter

Senior Pam Faller has received a Na· tional Science Foundation Graduate Fellowship which will help her move one step closer to her dream of becoming a college professor. The Fellowship will enable her to at· tend graduate school at Harvard University in Boston. As part of the Fellowship, Faller will receive a cost of living stipend of S11,000 per year, and a cost of educaUon stipend of approximately 55,250 per year. she said. Harvard will cover the rest of her tuition expenses. Faller said that before she was notified of her award, Harvard had already offered to pay her way through their graduate program. It is Harvard's policy, when one of its students receives an NSF award, to waive the rest of their tuition, she said. Faller began school as a pre-medical student, but said she always was very interested n i research. Since her early college years, Faller knew that she wanted to be a college professor. Faller did apply and get accepted to medical school. but opted not to enroll. After observing the lifestyles of both medical doctors and professors, �he said that the lifestyle of a professor appealed to her more. She said she is glad that she applied to medical school because it gave her the choice to decide not to go. Currently, Faller has a 3.99 grade point average at PLU. She got onil A

minus as a freshman in Calculus. FaUer will graduate in May with a biology major, and with minors in chemistry and German. Faller said she believes her involve­ ment in activities outside PLU helped her a great deal in receiving the fellowship. She has worked aU four of her years at PLU as a research aide for biology pr� fessor Angelia Alexander, which she feels was a very valuable experience.

PLU� Alumni

She has known her goals to go on to graduate school ever since high school. and knew what she had lodo. Of PLU's biology deparment, Faller said, "I love it." She believes the new Rieke Science Center is a large part of the reason why she does. Faller said she has enjoyed getting to know her professors the most. She said there was a 5hort time a while ago when she considered transferring. But. she said, "The more time I spent here, the better it felt. I'm going to miss this place." Faller said she expe<:t5 to spcnd five years at Harvard to earn her Ph.D Then. she will seek a teaching position. She thinks she will proba!>ly be at a larger university than PLU. but said if there was a position here. she would con: sider taking j�.

she has lectured to some lower division courses, helped out in labs. and given tours. Faller also spent a summer working full·time in a nursing home in Germany. "I think that is one reason 1 got the fellowship," she said. Faller recalled this summer as one of the "biggest highlights" of her college time. It was difficult she said, to be alone overseas, and to be "totally immersed" in the Ger, man language. "You push yourself harder than you've ever been pushed," she said, of being in such a situation. But, Faller said she sees traits in her personality that are results of that period of her life. Faller said she spent the first two years of college, "as a general bookworm." Now, she said, "It has got· ten easier, but I've never been a slouch,"

ChemistI")' major Dennis Nichols was neentiy awarded the prestigious Fulbright scholarship, PLU's thirteenth Fulbright winner in 12 years. Nichols is the first Fulbright winner from PLU's Department of Natural Sciences, Although the scholarship can be won by a student in any field of study, it has normally been given to students in the humanities. The scholarship will pay for all Nichols' expenses for an entire year as he studies in Germany. "It's really a prestigious award. Almost anyone in education knows how important it is," said Fulbright advisor, Rodney Swenson, professor of German atPLU The Fulbright scholarship is named after J, William Fulbright, a senator ' from Arkansas in the 1940's who saw a need to send students abroad for addi· tional education in foreign countries. Fulbright sold assorted war surplus equipment to start the prestigious stholarship that provides the fortunate winner with an all-expenses paid year's study in any foreign country. Nichols said he will use his scholar· ship to conduct research in biophysical chemistry at the University of Karlsruhe, Germany. He said he has proposed to look at the active site of a biological catalyst len· zyme). Using a probe, which is sensitive to biomolecular interaction, he will be able to identtfy the different characteristics of enzymes. The scholarship will cover all of Nichols' living and tnlvel expenses as well as provide an aUowance,

Nichols said his ultimate goal is to be a trauma surgeon. He is also interested in research, teaching, and someday becoming a medical missionary. His work in Germany is considered post·graduate work. which he will apply toward his M.D./Ph.D.

After returning from Germany he would Like to attend medical school at the Uniform Services University of Health Sciences in Bethesda, Maryland. Nichols said he hopes that by receiv· ing the Fulbricht Award. he can direct people's attention to God. "Don't look at the clay (Nicholsl but look at the potter (Godl who formed the clay. The Lord is the one who deserves this recognition because he has given us life," he said.

the editors who sacrificed their sleep, studies and social lives to give you a paper to read each Friday. Maybe our reporters and photographers didn't hit f!Very deadline,

and maybe those of us in editorial positions let some mispeUings and confusing headlines sneak into the final editions of the paper, but we think we did some stuff that was a!1 right, too. At the risk 01 sounding like I'm bragging, I'm going to brag about some of the accomplishments that improved The Mast over past years: We dropped the

Seniors, alumni asked to withhold g ifts to PLU until Feni l i leaves To The Editor: As a member of the Graduation Gift Committee, I have worked hard at en­ couraging fellow classmates to pledge their future financial support to a university that has given me not only an excellent education, but a Christian. car­ n i g environment in which to grow and mature. However, this environment is threatened by a vice presid�t....w!w has consistently displayed actions that are diametrically opposed to the image that l seeas PLU. During her four years at this campus, Mary Lou Fenili has aeated an at· mosphere of fear, distrust, and discon· tent among students and the Student Life department as a whole. She has threatened and embarrassed students, laid numerous roadblocks in front of stu· dent efforts, pursued programs of her own self'interest, publicly displayed conduct unbecoming a university vice­ president, and unmercifully fired those who opposed her ways. A high ranking local businessman remarked to me, "If she had been in a business environment. she would have been fired by now." But for some reason, here at PLU, she re­ mains in power. During Fenili's first year here, Dr. Rieke received numerous complaints

concerning her personal behavior and administrative policies. But Dr. Rieke felt Mary Lou, if given time to adjust, would change her ways and do well in her role. During her second year. students and staff again approached Rieke about Mary Lou's deficiencies. Again, Dr. Rieke felt that she needed more time to change. Last year, AGAIN, dozens of individuals ap­ proached Rieke about Mary Lou, and AGAIN, Dr. Rieke determined that she just needed more time to adapt to PLU ways. Today, I would be happy for PLU, and Mary Lou, f i some dramatic positive had been made by allowing Mary Lou time to change. However, it's plain to see that Mary Lou's values and behavior are still inappropriate for a vice president of Student Life. This s i not to say that she does not possess cer­ t.ain talents. She is most cert.ainly a talented lawyer and organizer. However, her talents do not fit the position she currently holds. Her job requires rl "people oriented" style of leadership that students and staff alike can ·feel comfortable ap­ proaching with problems and ideas. Students need a "defense counsel," not a " proSecuting attorney:' She has been given more than enough time to change.

changes

If she hasn't changed by now, how can we expect more time to make a difference? You're probably asking why a graduating senior feels so concerned about someone he won't have to see again in two weeks. I'm concerned about Milry Lou because I'm concerned about PLU's future. As an alum. I will carry PLU's reputation with me wherever I go. In years to come, I want people to know PLU for the caring, Christian university that it is now. Not, for the tense "courtroom" that it is being transformed into. Over the la.st four years, dozens upon dozens of students. faculty, and ad· ministrators have approached Dr. Rieke concerning this problem. All have been turned away wi�h the response that Mary Lou needs more time to change. When eight ASPLU officers approached Dr. Rieke with a stack of written documents concerning Mary Lou's im· proper actions, I thought that finally he would take action. But, once again, Rieke turned them away believing that time will resolve the dilemma. After four long year. it is all too clear that time is not going to change Mary Lou. Since the president appears to be dEaf to the vocal and written concerns of his own students, 1 am calling all seniors

Apartheid diverts attention from other issues To the editor: Unfortunately. the recent anti· apartheid demonstraton on campus has shown up only two things: the blindness of these people to other, more silent issues, and the selrrighteousness of thil' group. These two things are what wiil cause further damage to friendships and half-fuU discussion of the issues on PLU's campus. We should worry about the evi l we do to ourselves as we pursue

· -wna�I'1"'-'. --" b� m � ,,, d-,, � � the anti'apartheid cause is not that

group might be wrong, but that it is blind to issues that should command more of our attention. for instance, one person at the South Africa Forum on last Tuesday argued that turning our at­ tention to-say- Northern Ireland or the Palestine problem would divert our attention from South Africa. Obviously. in this person's mind. South Africa is a priority above other issues such 88 these. That is wrong. The argument is that South Africa's system of apartheid s i so brutal, so de­ meaning, 80 vicious, that we must look to solve its problems fu-st. South Afri:a takes precedence over even murder! Since when? Ever since decolonization .....ithout ensuring that the blacks have a political community to hold their na· tions together has resulted in black dic­ tatorships running rampant throughout Africa. South Africans do not wish to see this happen. They reform slowly, so that when finally the country s i n i the hands of the blacks, the country will stay a country with political freedom. and not suffer as Angola. Zimbabwe, and Ugan· da have. But on another level. why put South Africa on our list of 'things to do?' The reason is that these demonstrators want it that way. T:l attack the Soviet Union for the 20 million peasants it starved to death in the 1930's would be to admit that the Soviets aren't such nice guys, something that the anti'apartheid pe0plecan't and won't admit. To attack Libya for the oil wealth it has squandered and the terrorism it has sponsorl->d would be to say that the Arab fanaticism it represents reaUy doesn't have a claim on Isreal afte- all. The double-standard at work here is obvious. The Ilnti'apartheid people attack South Africa because it befriends the United States. They want to see in the Western system of values South Africa distorts the evi l that really exists in the Soviet system. It is a case of 'mirror, minor on tho wall.'

The second thing that bothers me """" "tion. ,ndoth",might ". ' .m about the anti'apartheid demonstration willing to argue the facts and be found is that the people n i volved in the group wrong. But the anti'apartheid seem so self'righteous. Chip Upchurch demonstrators are not. All they want to asks us to see things 'objectively.' What a i does that mean? Absolutely nothing. e n f c South Africa Rnd divestment are things e i h � reasonable people will disagree reasonably over.

Instead, a doctor takes Immediate action and removes the cancerous growth m order to save the rest of the body. Likewise. it is time for Dr. Rieke to scrub up and go into the operating room prepared to take action. If he refuS<'l' to operate, I refuse to support his maJprac· tic insurance. Until Mary Lou is dismissed, I, along with seniors Vance Ostrander, John Hermansen, Duane Trump, Mark Haskins, Laura White, and hopefully others, will refuse to financially support an administration that allows her damaging influence to continue to infect PLU. I know that I will be unable to support a university that allows students, facul· ty, and administrators to be damaged by her any longer.

Shanty dwellers thank supporters To The Editor: We dwellers in shanty town would like to take this opportunity to thank all the members of the PLU community with whom we had a chance to n i teract. We feel that we gained a lot in being able to with students, staff and faculty from all perspectives on the issue of divestment. Even those people who disagreed with us on the topic were overwhelmingly polite and genuine in the.ir approach. We attempted to present our position in an open and honest manner. Most of the

talk

feedback thal we received was extreme­ ly postive. (Special thanks to Ha:-swd 4th North for all the food.) While we are very glad that the Board of Regents passed the resolution calling for investigation and action on divest· ment, we are most pleased by the terest generated among the community. The level of discuss.ion does credit to this school. We hope that people con­ tinue to investigate and repond to this and other issues.

U.S. sanctions opposed ToThe Editor: While I strongly and emphatically op­ pose the idea of the United States sup­ perting the Nicaraguan Contras against their lawful government with multi­ million dollar aid packages, I also op­ pose any meddling on the part of the U.S. in the South African situation. With all due respect to those who elect to demonstrate their feelings n i regards to divestment, I submit that one cannot solve socia-political dilemmas that date back several hundred years-on another continent-by punitive economic pressure. Such sanctions have a very poor suc­ cess record; to over·simplify South

Africa's complex and volatile political predicament is nothing short of a clear and present danger. One cannot. from the outside and without lu.ving workable, peaceful alternatives, set off mountain slides of re\'olution in a fore.ign land which most of us really do not understand. Sanctions only create new hardships for the already under·privileged. And who among us would wish to help light the flame that could kindle a blaze on the African continent the combined fire brigades of the Western World could never put out.

But the faculty did want discussion. Dr. Stivers introdur:ed the divestment resolution in a totally legal way. But he made it so the faculty couldn't discuss the resolution. Still. that was legal too. The faculty could only vote yes or no without discussion. Half the faculty felt so socure in their decision they were ready to vote right then. But some wanted to reaUy get to know the issue rather than run on emotion. So the facul· ty voted 50-49 to table the resolution and discuss it May 9. The Mast screwed up the real decision of the faculty. But the divestment protestors only read The Mast. They never asked facul· ty members to double-check The Mast article. Because they felt descussion had been rejected by the faculty, they set up their shanty town in Red Square. That emotional demonstration would never have taken place had The Mast's bad sparked reporting not the demonstrators. The Afast should remember to report events like this more accurately. If it does, we can avoid the embarassment and anger that the shanty caused at PLU. Come on Most. get your act together and stop causing problems!

H uman rights violated every day by the 'generic he' To the editor

Almost everyone agrees that some ac· tion should be taken to abolish apar· theid. Unfortunately. fewer people reaiiu just how much we perpetuate similar human rights violations on a dai· Iy basis. I am referring to the "apar­ thied" of te English language: the generic 'he.' Currently. the generic 'he' is about as pervasive as the languagt: itself­ finding its way into textbooks, lectures, and even newspaper articles. I don't think that anyone means harm by simp­ ly following the rules of grammar. but perhaps there s i more than just rules at stake here. At leut we have a responsibility to take its use out of the subconscious level and examine the issue more closely. The problem we face is not simply a matter of confusion over which of the ac­ cepted meanings to assign. although such confusion certainly exists. For example. does "men of science" refer to male scientists exclusively or to scientists in general? The real problem stems from the nature of language, The way we learned and U!J8 this convention dictates that we hold onto the specific meaning while

biasing the general meaning. In addition and most importantly, this bias occurs at the expense of women. I realiu that this assertion is directly contradictory to the guidelines set forth n i Strunk and Whites· The Elemenu of Style. where it is stat,eq: "he has lost all suggestion to maleness in these circumstances," Words and Women. by Casey M.iller and Kate Swift. cites a 1972 survey of 300 college students who were asked to select pictures from maguines and newspapers to illustrate different chapters of a sociology textbook soon to be published. Students of hoth sexes who were given chapter titles such as "Social Man" f'.Jld "Political Man" cho8C significantly more images of males only. while m i ages of both males andfemales were more often associated with titles like "Society" and "'Political Behavior." The generic 'he' never "loses all suggestion of maleness:' but it s i biasedand because this bias is 80 pervasiVe, the effect is to deny women equal status as human beings. Indeed, it seems that the generic 'he' was never really generic. It is not, as Strunk and White claim, merely a "practical convention rooted in the beginn·

ings of the English language." At the time English did have separate words which were used to distinguish a per9()n by sex (Miller and Smith. 21. Very generally. the transition to the current use of masculine pronouns oc· cured along with the emergence of a dominant male society. It was only prac· tical from the perspective of dominant males, Literature was often written by males to males about males. Females were not directly considered and fur. ther, were denied the opportunity for educatioll or at least not given equal opportunity for education. The words once used to distinguish a person by sex were wif (or female. wer and con for male. A human being was a mCiM. These combined to name an adt:.:t male person: wClepmcznand conmCln, and an adult female person: wifmCln, Over time. wifmanbecame woman. and wifs meaning was narrowed to wife. W"r, waepmClIt, carl, and cczrlman, however. became obsolete-they were no longer needed once man was uged especially to signify a male. Generally. the transition to this skewed convention was a result ofa dominant maJeworld.. With this historical background established. we can fmally consider the application of more equitable language.

The application will be s mattel of per. sonal prefer(!flce-but it should be governed by the recognition tbat t�e ambiguous 'he' is biased in a way that IS harmful. . Therefore. it should simply be aV lId� cd. There are a number of appropnate words to use alternatively: person, peG" pie. humans, humankind. Some suggest using 'their' instead of 'his: as in "there person who memorized their ines." l While such usage has been known to "set the literary man's tooth on edge," perhaps a transition to broaden the ac· cepted meaning of 'their' would be worth the loss of its "correct" U8C as stricly plural trealiz.e that we are t.alkin& about violating rules herell. This transi· tion would take place as greater numbers of people used the broader meaning, I hope that what J have presented will be considered carefully. I realiz..e that ( have only made a brief case-for a more exhaustive survey ambiguous 'he' usage, we should be annoyed. Recognition of the barmful nature of this inherited habit ill the fu-st step towards eliminating the problem, Tim Reierson

Movies, movies, movies of every varie­ ty bombard the Expo traveler. Nearly every pavilion offers at least one movie or multi-media presentation. shown on multiple. huge or split screens. This method present!! the country t6 the viewer n i an often exciting and dramatic way. Various new film technologies include a high speed process shown on an Imax screen that presents a true-to-Iife image. Located in the British Columbia Pavilion. the Showscan theater present.s a 70·millimeter film that transports the viewer through the rugged B.C. land· . scapes and into magnificent British Col· umbia scenery.

THE SUPERPOWERS The United States and Soviet Union both made an effort to show off their space programs; while the People's Republic of China veered onto a dif­ ferent track and upstaged the other two with exhibits of its 2,000 years plus of history and artifacts. The U.S. pavilion used space exhibits to prove its theme, "Why explore?" Em· phasizing social and economic benefits of space exploration, the exhibits ex· plain the past, present and future of the American space program. The Soviet Union pavi l ion aUows visitors to explore an unlaunched but ac· tual 108·foot space station and the Vega satellie, an internat.ional project in con­ nection with the appearance of Halley's Comet. China's pavilion exhibits the incredi· ble transportation and communication technology that has been developed throughout the centuries. Visitors will encounter such modern technological in­ novations as a satellite. a marine surveying ship and a display of the Chinese railway. A few steps away is a model of a 2,000 year old bronze chariot uuearthed in 1980. After entering, visitors can touch ac­ tual bricks from the Great WaU, hand­ made centuries ago. Displays of hand· carved ivory and jade pieces amaze "iewers with their exquisite detail.

GM SHOWS THE FUTURE

SMALL BUT WORTHWHILE

One of 32 corporate sponsors, General Motors haS on display the transporta­ tion of the future. Located under a 30-meter-high "motion wedge," various futuristic modes of transportation are displayed for the public to climb into and imagine they are cruising the freeways. GM demonstrates its "Car of the Future:' which, among many high tech conveniences, lowers itself 12 inches to

Mentioned above s i only a small selec· tion of the pavilions and exhibits open to the Expo traveler. Many of the smaller countries. such as Barbados, Malaysia and the Philippines also offer high quality displays that should not be missed. But one thing the Expo visitor should have is-plenty of time-because, un· doubtedly, there will be more that he wants to see than he has time for.

Expotainment: Fai r m ixes fun, c u lt u re by David Steves Mast editor Entertainment at Expo 86 is something that doesn't need to be sought out. It is rich, abundant and can be found everywhere you look. Without even exploring the hundreds of exhibits, pavilions and attractions of­ fered at Expo, visitors can easily spend their time enjoying the hundreds of acts that appear each day on the stages and bandstands of the t7:l·acre sight. Just during the first two days of Ex· po. entertainment included Bryan Adams, Kenny Rogers, Loverboy and Sheena Easton at the Expo Theatre. Later this summer such acts as Miles Davis, Wynton Marsalis, Kool and the Gang, the Eurythmics and George Ben· 'JOn are set to perfonn. Exccpt for these concerts and shows at the Expo Theatre, most of the 14,000 performances are free with the price of admission. There are several smaller theaters and stagcs throughout the grounds which will be hosting a wide range of entert.ainment. Such fare will include eommunity, ethnic and school bands. choirs and ensembles from through out North America. Contemporary and traditional bands will entertain crowds at the two band· stands on the grounds. Several of the pavilions include small �tages outside, which allow entertainers to provide relief for those in queues waiting to see the exhibits. These smaller stages contribute great­ ly to the rich and varied ent.ertainment at Expo. In strolling through a I()().yard stretch of the Expo grounds last Satur· dllY aftetDoon, tourists passed by a bandstand where the Big Band Trio could be heard playing "But There Ain't No Chickens in Here." Ten Yllrds away a v�!l1Idevi1le troupe entertained Expo v isitors wlliting to enter the Yukon pavilion. Not far ahead, ::. dozen elderly Eskimo men and women were gathered in a semi-eircle on a small stage near the Northwe::.l Territories Pavilion.

Dressed in sealskin and fur parkas. they tapped on drum·like n i struments and chanted in their nlltive language. A gray·haire:! women with fur gloves resembling bear claws stood up and per­ formed a native dance. Throughout the perfonnance, several of the Eskimo performers would stand up and dance while the rest of the group drummed, chanted and laughed. Expo visitors can warder another 50 yards and sit on a lush lawn at the Folk Life Festival sight and watch a man dressed in animal skins, wearing face paint and a plume OD his heed similar to a feather duster. The rhythmic sound of drums could be heard as he performed Native American drum music. Returning through this short stretch of the Expo grounds an hour later, these acts had been replaced by folk musi· cians, a singing group and a small dance troupe. Expo 86 has three larger amphitheaters- the Kodak Pacific Bowl, the Plaza of Nations. lind the Xerox International Theatre, which seat from 1,500 to 10,000 spectators. These theaters host free entC("tainment all summer long. Several festivals are scheduled at Ex· po 86 throughout the summer. These festivals include the Canadian. Stage Band Festival May 14-19; a mime festival June 8·22; the Canadian Heitage Festival. July :·20; the Van· couver Inf.ernationlll Puppetfest August 3-9: Dance on TracklDanse Entr'acte; a dance festival August 1I·!7: and the Pacific Jau: and Blues Festival August 20·24. Throughout the Exposition, street entertainers will perfonn. These acts n i · c1ude clowns on unicycles, puppeteera, mimes, jugglers, fiddlers and other im· promptu entertainers. , l' One of the most entertaining aspects of Expo 86 is the fireworks show, "In­ ternational Nights of Fire." The nightly show is a spectacular 15 minutes of fireworks lind laser lights which signal the 10 p.m. closing of the p!.lvilions.

Measles hit Vancouver by SUSln Eury Mast staff reporter

N ightspots are hotspots by Krlstl Thorndike

Mast news editor

The city of Vancouver is a gigantic party for the next. 51ft months. So gear up to check out the nightlife and dancecluba throughout the city. Visiting the city's night scene is easy because Vancouver's core-only 13 square blocu- is denser than Manhat tan, and contains most of city's night spots. Live music starts around 9:30 p.m. and liquor is served until 2 a,m. The drin.king age in Canada is 19. Vancouver nightclubs are cluster-ad in two main areas-Gastown, the historic district, and Downtown. which is the center for shopping and business. ...

The 1986 World Exposition is not the only thing happening in Vancouver, British Columbia. There is also a measles epidemic. More than 5,000 cases of the disease have been reported in British Columuia in the past 'four months. according to the Tacoma·Pierce County Health Department. Americans traveling to Vancou\'er to visit Expo any time this year should make sure that they lire immune from the disease known liS rubeola. or hard . measles. Many people were immunized as children but if that n i noculation was given between 1957 and 1968 it is not considered effe<:tive. according to Judy Wagonfeld. self carclwellness coor· dinator for the PLU Health Center. WagonfeJd also said that im· muniutons given before the age of 15 months were most likely ineffective. Meosles are very contagious and may be transmittro through casual contact and through the air. said Wagonfeld. Just being Dear someone who has them is enough to . contract the disease. she said.

Measles symptoms include a r!ll>� . fe\'cr. a flu·like ft'ding. and diffic�llty seeing in the light. Adults who contract the disease nre susccptible to further complicntions such as pneumonia and encephalitis !infection of the brainl. Measles immunization9 will be re­ quired for all PLU students as of next Jnnuary. said Wagonfeld. Those who have not already had the disease and are without effe<:tive innoculations will be restricted from classes. she said. Children 12 to 14 months old who will be traveling to Expo should receive a measles·mumps·rubella vaccine (MMR; and those 6 to 12 months old should receive just the measles vaccine. The children in the 6 to 12 month category should then be revaccinated with at 1 5 months of age. Pregnant women and those who may become pregnant within the three months following the innoculation should not be \'accinized. People born before 1957 Itnd children less Lhan 6 months of age need not be vaccinated.

Country sounds come to town with Alabama by MIke Cond.rdo

Mast staff reporter When country music's Alabama takes the stage next Wednesday in the Tacoma Dome, the group wiU be promoting its latest RCA label release "Alabama's Greatest Hits," which features songs from the band's first five albums. Alabama's total record sales have now exceeded the 10 million mark. Opening the concert Wednesday evening will be Epic recording group The Charlie Daniels Band. now on the road with music from its latest album "Me And The Boys," The show is scheduled to get . under way at p.m. 8

Alabama has played. in all the biggest venues in the United States and is the recipient of every major music award, including 8 Grammy for the album "The Closer You Get," Group members have writ­ ten 8 number of songs that have hit the top of the chart.s. Their credits include the Litle songs of their first three albums. "Feels So Right," "Mountain Music," and the theme song of the group "My Home's In Alabama," as well as "Why Lady Why" and "Lady Down On Love." At fust glance, it would seem that the success of the group has come about in a very brief period. But the fact of the matter is that blood runs deep in the band-three of the four members are cousins and have been playing together since 1969. Randy Owen handles the lead vocals and rhythm guitar, Teddy Gentry does vocals and electric guitar, while Jeff Cook is a vocalist and plays lead guitar, keyboards and the fiddle. The three grew up in Ft. Payne, Ala., where they still make their home. When they got together in 1969 to play as a group, they started out performing only on the weekends while keeping their respective day jobs. Owen and Gentry worked 8S carpet layers while Cook had a government job. In 1973, they decided that it would be all or nothing. They quit their jobs and moved to Myrtle Beach, S. C., where they worked the night club cir· cuit six nights a week. They signed II record con· tract in 1977 and had little success. But from the connection with that record company a relationship with prooducet:, ;Harotd.§l1edd developed. Shed� hilS beeiiwltTitfiEi group ever since.

One of country muslc's most popular bands, ·Alabama, performs Wednesday night with the O\arlle Daniels Band In the Tacoma Dome. Drummer Mark Herdon camt. into the picture in the same year the group released its fll"st single, "I Wanna Come Over." Their foUow up release "My Home's n i Alabama" was n i the Top 20 nationaUy. The Charlie Daniels Band has been among the top recording groups in the nation since 1973. Their last album "Decade of Hits," was the group's 15th album, which commemorateS 10 years of hits in· c1uding "The Devi l Went Down To Georgia," "Still In Saigon," and "The Legend or Wooley Swamp." The band's latest album "Me And The Boys" shows that the band has a conscience and is fired up about social issues. This time out the band offers a plea for the plight of the "American Farmer," and issues an angry demand that polititcians remember the·'M.I.A." still stranded in Sout"east Asia. 1979.

.

Their latest album probably is the group'a mO!lt technica1 release, due to the use of synthesizers and other computerized instrumep.tation. The band sup­ plemented their material with works of artists like Don Henley and J.D. Souther. The Charlie Daniels Band has snared its share of awards along the way for recording efforts. They in· clude a Grammy for the 1.6 million·selling single "The Devil Went Down To Georgia:" two Country Music Association Awards for Single Of The Year and Instrumentalist Of the Year in 1979: nlld two AClldcmy of Country Music Awards as Touring Band of the Year in 1979 lind 1980.

Review: Drama illustrates life's stark realities Squires cries lind carries on wonderful· ly during the emotionlll scenes but this sometimes causes her to drop her Southern accent. Director Bruce Siddons, co-founder lind former artistic director of Oregon Contemporary Theater in Portland. doesn't let the actors' abundance of props dictate their movements, but lets them casually manipulate them to fit their needs. The characters' n i teraction with the set and cach other is very natural. For example, someone may tum a back to the audience or hide a face from view instead of constantly playing to or posing for the audience. The set. a 1950s·style kitchen design. ed by Anne Thaxter Watson. is infinite­ ly cluttered with items like planter5, magazines. beach pebble5, pla5tic froit, lind refrigerator magnet5. The vinyl and chrome dinette set is patched and the worn linoleum floor and dirty cabinets tell years of use. It's the kind of room you'd fee! right at home in, but it's almost a little too dirty in some plaCC5 for the kind of household Lenny would keep.

by Emily MOfijan Mast staff reporter As the light5 come up on the well·worn kitchen of a Southern family, the lazy strains of " Sentimental Journey" are a fitting preview to the emotions stirred in PLU's production of "Crimes of the !-iellrt·'playing this weekend in East\'old Auditorium. Written by Beth Henley, this Puliucr prizt'·winning play in\·olves three �i"'ters, /lMg, Lenny and na�, all flliling in th('ir personal drellms to find lovl' lind h:;ppille�s as tht'Y wlltch themselves l,'TOW older and realize how cruel the worldc.an be. Brought together by a family crisis, these lonely women try to helll old wounds IIno untangle their lives but their good n i tentions often fail. Meg, played by Kathryn Lootens,

rushes to heor smaU childhood. home of Hazelhurst after getting word that her younger sister, Babe, has shot her own husband. Meg Jives n i Los Angele5 Inding everyone to believe that her fail· ing singing cp.rrer is on the rise. Lootens plays Meg with a believably hard ex· terior lind her verbal attacks on her oldt.'f sister, Lenny, are convincingly cruel 3S she chllin smokes defiantly, Babe, played by Annll Lauris, is like a child who only wants to be taken care of und not have to worry about life's responsibilities. Her mllrriage to nn im· portant man, intended to "!lkyrocket her to the heights of society,"' ICllvcs her lonely lind self·dcstructive with an nllusive husband whom she finally shoots, but unfortunately doesn't kill. Lauris's obvious affection for her sisters makes the child-like character easy to believe. Mimi Squires, as Lenny. is convinc· ingly sensitive and easily upset as she plays the part of an unfulfilled woman who thinks she's not worthy of love hecause she can't have children. Unmar­ ried, she takes care of her dying grand daddy and performs unselfish duties to fill time. When no one remembers her birthday, she puts 8 candle on a cookie. lighting it repeatedly and singing to herself but worries that she will get caught "indulging" herself with such things.

Rowers win 7 races at Cascade Sprints regatta by KatherIne Hedland Mast stall re porte r Excitement was high for PLU rowers last weekend on American Lake. The Men's and women's crew had one of their best regattas of the year at l8.9t Lute Cascade Sprints. Saturday's i seven of rowers captured first place n !..he day's races, two of them varsity. Other wins for the Lutes came in the way of nine second places finishes, one third and a fifth. Seven other' teams competed with PLU at the small-college champion­ ships. Seattle University, Gonzaga, H;umboldt, University of Puget Sound, Evergreen State, Lewis and Clark, and PLU's stiffest competitor, Western Washington were present for the regatta. i the varisty Men's victories were n four, jayvee eight. and the novice four. Noother men's team finished lower than second place. Men's Coach Bob Trondsen said that all the boats had strong raCES, even those which did not win. Though Western still won the men'S and women's varsity eight races, both teams felt good about their rowing efforts. The men's vnrstiy eight lost by only t.....o seconds. "That's the first time we've ever been that close to Western:' Trondsen said. "I don't think PLU hall ever beat.en Western," he added. in their race, the women '11 varsity eight knocked 22 seconds off their bellt time, said senior vice-rommodore Denise Stelling. "WclItern said we were their toughellt race all year," Stelling lIaid. Other second place boat:.s were pleased with the outcomell of their races. The men'lI lightweight novice four worked hard for their finish, said Steve Shaw, sophomore stroke for that boat. "After late struggles in the race, we finally decided to pull it together:' Shaw said. " We headed off two charges by other boats and maintained second." Shaw said the men'lI novice eight also. rowed very well, especially considering i it was the first time they had all been n a boat together. Women's Coach Elise Lindborg said the best race for their team was the light eight. Earlier this year, she said, PLU finished two boat lengths of o�n water behing Western. On Saturday, they l ed behind the Vikings by only one trai second. irst place finishes for the women's

boats were in the novice light four, light four, novice four, and the jayvee eight. This was the fourth consecutive year that the novice four has won this race. Junior Pam Olson said her boat was pleased that they were able to defend their trophy in a competitive heat of seven boats. Trendsen said that a1though the eight teaJn9 were not officially ranked for the day, with the outcomes of the PLU races, he think.9 "PLU would have been the overall winner of the day." "Thill is the most successful end of the seasons we've had for six years," Trend· . sen said.

Women lose district tennis title to cross·town rival Puget Sound The Pacific Lutheran women's tennis team faced some tough competition against the University of Puget Sound, competition they just could not over· come. The Lutes finished only two points behind the Loggers, finishing 2nd in the NAIA District I tournament. The totals showed UPS 27, PLU 25, and Whitman 18. Last year, the Lutes defeated UPS by eight points. Coach Stacia Marshall said that they i dua1 matches twice have beaten UPS n this season, but with the luck of the draw they ended up playing their own players, and lOlling valuablc points. "I thought we played very well," Mar­ sha11 said. "It was a very mental weekend because we knew what the competition would be like." i FridaY'lI third Marshall said that n round play, Chris Dickinson came cloSf'. to beating UPS's Sharon Crow!!()n. but lost in the third and decisivc match. The scores were 6-4, 6·7, 7-6. Crowson had on1y one defeat to her credit during regular season and conference pia!. Saturday's district tourney eYenoo up the PLU-UPS women's tennis grudge match at 25·25'. Carolyn Carlson defeated Mimi Dcga

. nothing to lose and everything to gain., Trondsen said he docs have high hopes for his teams. " The varsity eight is getting steadily better." he lIaid. At last year'S competition. the novice fout took the gold, Trondsen added. Regionals will be held the following weekend near Seward Park in Seattle. . All members of both lIquadll will be row· ing in their final races of the year and Trondsen is excited about that. i "Last week with the whole team n tack, we made great strides over the previous One," Trondsen said. ._Trondsen hopes regionals will go as well as Cascade Sprints did.

The PLU soccer team lost a heart­ breaker in the title game of the NAJA District 1 championships, The Lutes fell prey to Simon Fraser 2·0, finishing district runnerup for the third time in four years. The loss to the Clansmen from the north brought the Lute booter's season record to 12·8-1. PLU possessed ample talent but couldn't seem to gel as a solid unit and capitalize on their strengths.

Under new head coach l\1urcene Sullivan, the Lutes rebounded from a poor 1984 season to finish 1O-2i in '86 , building a solid foundation for upcom· ing seasons. The Lady LULCS. who were 3·7 in the NCIC and 2·7 in NAIA District J play, will lose two seniors in Linda I\lcBain and Sharon Schmitt. ,.
