Communication Gap

October 31, 1974

page 20

It's an ironic curse on people involved in communicating th.at often they
have trouble communicating. Such is the situation now arising out of a conflict between Sid White, faculty member of the Public Information Minority
Affairs group contract, and students outside of the program who want access
to the video equipment that White has sanctioned on an extended loan . For
the past few weeks the problem has
been the subject of many menos,
meetings, adjectives and recently
letters to the editor (see letters section). In this issue the Journal looks
at the situation and talks with affected individuals .
" Availability's the key word here,"
reads the literature on the library in
the college catalog bulletin . It is .
also the key word concerning Media ~
Loan where any Evergreen community member can check out media
equipment, from tape recorders to
cameras to PA systems . The situa- ·
tion has brought up the question of
just who has priority for the limited
equipment that the college owns.
According to the deans, the policy
is now that programs have first grabs over individuals because " more students are exposed" to the equipment that way. With this apparent conflict
the whole policy of lending equipment for an extended period of time will
probably have to be reviewed again and perhaps modified . Until such time
communicators at Evergreen will most likely be discussing their number one
concern - communicating effectively .

Munching
mushrooms
at TESC
There are those that like the rain and
there are those that just don't lik~ the
drought . But there are more than a few
people around here who are itching for
the clouds to finally open up fully and
forcefully .
They're really not thinking only about
themselves, well, at least not directly. Actually, they're concerned for their mysterious friends that are generally found only
under leaves and in various secluded and
shady spots . After a rainfall it is sometimes even possible to see these rain-loving people express their concern by trooping out in the dark of the night to fill
their picnic baskets with the odd-shaped
treats.
It's mushrooms they're after, and mushroom collecting for food and recreation
seems to be becoming the latest cult fad at
Evergreen .
We were fortunate to have the chance
to sample a taste of this mushroom cult
last Thursday night, October 24, when
author and researcher Andrew Wei! spoke
to a gathering of about 250 students . Wei!
is the author of The Natural Mind, a bestselling book about drugs and human consciousness. His many years of field and
lab research have made him a noted authority on the subject.
Wei! sat with his audience in the dim
light of the second floor Library lobby
and spoke extemporaneously about his experiences with drugs. He only talked
about what he termed "natural" or organic
drugs and in fact stated several times that
organic were to be much preferred over
synthetic drugs even though it was frequently impossible for the user to detect
any difference in their effects .
We expected Wei! to dwell on the sub~
ject of marijuana, if not in his lecture at
least in the question and answer session,
but surprisingly enough, this was not the
case. He barely touched on marijuana,
saying that it had been several years since
October 31, 1974

his heavy research into the drug and he
was getting tired of talking about it. "It's
a very weak drug," he said.
The main body of Weil's talk centered
on mushrooms. It happens that this part
of the country provides an excellent environment for the fungi and in fact, Wei!
is in the Evergreen area looking for Psylocibin and other psychedelic mushrooms
for his latest research project. " It'll take
two good days of heavy rains before the
mushrooms really come up, " he said . People may be enjoying this weather, but
mushrooms most definitely are not.
As Wei! went on about the many varieties of psychedelic mushrooms, he plainly
refused to aescribe them, "not to be
mean, but because the only way to learn
mushrooms is to convince someone who
knows them that you deserve to have that
knowledge, and get them to show you ."
Wei! has some interesting theories
about the genus of mushrooms that rather
intrigued us . Calories are a measure of the
sun's heat, he said, but mushrooms take
nothing from the sun - their entire light

36th & Overhulse
866-1252

source is the moon. Wei! believes that the
calories in a mushroom go directly to the
subconscious centers of the brain and
nourish that hidden side of life.
He described as an example the povertystncken couple that one day found two
large, white, amanita pantherina mushrooms growing in their back yard. ll)
their hunger they assumed that the plants
were "a gift" and proceeded to saute and
eat them . About a half hour after the
couple ingested the mushrooms, the
woman felt , as she later described to'
Wei), "sicker than she ever had felt in he~
entire life.
·
" S~e said she felt her body systems:
shuttmg down from the outside in, until
she was left with a small sphere of con-·
sciousness which grew smaller and smalle;
until fihally it disappeared."
·
Fortunately, the couple was found in
time and the woman lived to tell. But a ·
plant ~ith such power must · surely be
~ystenous enough to justify his speculations, said Weil.

Saga
corrections
To the Editor:
This letter is in response to fhe article
presented last week (October 24) in the
Cooper Point Journal regarding Saga
Food Service at l;he Evergreen State
College. The article for the most part
appeared quite factual and in order as far
as background information on Saga, and
· Saga 's development here at TESC is
concerned . There is a point, however, at
which the statements become misleading,
if no t altogether erroneous . It is at this
poi nt at w hich I become a b it concerned.
Under " Student Fund Allocations, "
re fere n ce is made to the total S&A
budge t of "545.523" for fiscal year 1971T2 : "nearly half . or $21 ,513, went to
Page 6

Saga ." Also mentioned is an "inter-fund
loan" given Saga in 1971-72 which was
then cancelled "leaving Saga free of
debts. " The fact is that Saga did not come
to this campus until February of 1973.
Therefore, neither the $21 ,513 nor an
inter-fund loan of any amount could
possibly have been given to this
"profit-making enterprise. "
In fiscal year 1972-73, the college
reportedly lost (according to .John Moss)
$12,687 in · the food service area. ARA
Slater operated the food service for
7 '/zmonths of that year and was responsible for the greater amount of the loss
incurred, while Saga Food Service
managed to take a direct loss of some
$6,000 from February through June, 1973,
a point which the Cooper Point Journal
inadveriantly overlooked in their statement , "Saga has not suffered any direct
losses."
Saga is nol , however, ne c es~a ril y th e

fellow on the white horse riding off into
the sunset. During the summer months ,
Saga is paid a fee (ten percent of costs
incurred ) for operating the food service.
Saga provides service to the limited
number of- people on campus as well as
catering any conferences or special groups
visiting TESC. Any money taken in is
turned over to the college cashier. Saga
then bills the college for services provided. The m·o ney taken in during the summer hasn 't been sufficient to cover expenses in the past. Therefore, the college has
suffered a relatively small loss ($1 , 100 in
1974) . Hopefully thi s situation will
reverse itself in the summers to come.
My thanks tq the Cooper Point Journal
for a feature article on Saga as well as an
·opportunity to corre<;:{>:;<the few errors I
discovered therein .

Praise from
Pocatello
To the Editor:
Randy and I are sitting here in a' daze,
reading the first four editions of the
Cooper Point Journal. Comparing your
pa~er to the Idaho State rag "Speculum,"
weve decided that the C.P.J . would never
make it here. Where are your pep rally
announcements? What about the football
scores? How many boys pledged to Frats?
Who cheated in the student senate
elections?
Besides , you gotta clean up your
language . Don' t you know that you can
get suspended for saying "fuck?!" Who in
the fuck cares about new students'
reactions to Evergreen (Vol. 3, no . 1), or,
for that matter who would go to the
Rape Awareness Week? You guys don't
know how much fun a real college can
be . Just last week we broke the record
and got 27 people in a phone booth. I
mean, you guys gotta get with it : you
care too much . Haven't you heard that
student apathy is "in" right now? Don't
you guys get tired of touching, car-ing,
loving, and giving? If you want some
good clean fun, get out of your Ivory
Tower and come to I.S .U .
RAH! RAH! RAH! and a Big Orange to
you,

P .S . How can we get in at TESC?

Who gets
access?
To the Editor :
Strike another blow against open access
.
at Evergreen.
In a memo dated October 25, 1974, the
Public Information and Minority Affairs
Contract here at Evergreen, led by faculty
member Sid White, formally refused a request by three students, Margo Westfall,
Norman Levy, and Grant Richards, to release video equipment "assigned" to that
contract, for use in video taping the upcoming Chick Corea / Return to Forever
concert. The request was made on behalf
of Cometronics, a group organized for the
purpose of reproducing audio and video
presentations made here at Evergreen.
In this refusal, the members of the contract cited a need for "100 percent access"
to the equipment assigned them for

October 31, 1974

production of their regular news broadcast as well as "hot news clips" which
may arise . They go on to state, "We cannot accomplish our learning and production goals while at the same time functioning as an adjunct of the Media Loan
Department." These remarks are prefaced
by comments from Sid stating that he is
"in fuJi agreement with their (the contract's) position ."
Questions bridged, but not answered by
this memo include: Why is this equipment being refused for a period of time
that it formerly has not been used, i.e. ,
the weekends . Secondly, is there justification for assigning equipment that is being
used only a fraction of the time it is being
held by the group contract, and, · in my
opinion, most importantly, does any community member have the right to deny
access to facilities when these facilities are
required for credit generating purposes?
I do not wish, nor does it seem the intention of this request, to upset the integrity of this contract. Yet the undocumented isolationism voiced in this refusal
speaks seriously of a breech in access policy here at Evergreen. Until a satisfactory
reply is received from Sid White or the
academic dean in charge of the Public Information and Minority Affairs Groups as ·
to what use is actually being _made of this
equipment and as to what "rights" programs have to exclusive use of assigned
facilities, it must be concluded .that the
attitude expressed in this memd reflects
poorly on resource sharing at Evergreen .
Joe Murphy

White
defended
To the Editor :
The Cooper Point Journal has taken an
interest in the assignment of media resources to Sid White's group contract. On
- October 28, i974, I informed Sid that all
commitments· of resources to his program
are indeed firm, and that his program has
priority in the use of these resources.
Sid's responsibilities as to access to
equipment were met, according to policy,
i.e., he detailed his program's need last
spring at the time when his program was
accepted for this academic year. Others
did not express their needs during , the
planning process, nor did they inform
themselves about the need to · use
resources most efficiently by groups.
The emergence of late individual
contract interests which require access to
media resources has put Public Information and Minority Affairs in a position of
having to defend its own needs, a position
which is, in my opinion, unsavory and
indeed unjustified.
, Sid has agreed to work with the Inter-

play program which seems to have the
most urgent need for access to video
equipment. Such cooperation obviously
cannot be realized with individual
students or small numbers of students
who have grouped themselves together
after the academic program for the year
was set and Public Information and
Minority Affairs was underway . To
continue insisting that everyone have
access to some of the resources assigned
to PIMA serves only to weaken that program and keep it in a defensesive
position. This is not necessary. Obviously
it cannot function as a check-out agency
for others.
Thus the alternative for others who did
not state their needs early on is to work
with that gear which still remains
:wailable and is not out on extended loan.
The point to be taken here is to plan
ahead and anticipate needs early so that
these types of problems can be held to
a minimum . We need to continually
remind ourselves that our interdisciplinary
mission necessitates setting priorities in
favor of many students becoming
"literate," in this case, in media
techniques rather than specialized training
for a few.
Willie L. Parson

Complaints
solicited
To the Editor:
The Working Climate Disappearing
Task Force (DTF) recently appointed by
President Charles McCann is investigating
the factors that make working at Evergreen more stressful and unpleasant than
it has to be. They are trying to acquire a
list of all the complaints that people have
about the ways they have to do their
jobs, about their interactions with others
and about any other factors in the Colleg~
· that add stress to their lives. It is therefore soliciting contributions from all members of the Evergreen community; please
send them as soon as possible (anonymously, if you wish) to Paul Marsh, Library 2216 . They invite complaints about
your own job requirements ("I could do
my job better if my supervisor didn' t
make me do X, which just wastes time.")
and horror stories about interactiops between people (" Faculty Member Mr. X is
always abusive to Clerk-Typist Ms. Y. in
the following way.") as long as you know
the story to be true and you don't use real
names. Please do not send gossipy, personal things that will occur in almost any
organization ("Ms. Q is always borrowing
money and not repaying it.". "Mr. 'f a!~

continued on next page
Page 7

continued from preceding page
ways tries to make all the girls in his department.").
But, more importantly, they are looking for positive steps 'that can be taken to
solve these problems, and they ask for
!juggustions along with complaints. Even
the most radical , "far out" suggestions are
!IOii"cited, and they will be considered seriously. The DTF emphasizes that it has
been appointed by President McCann,
who is deeply concerned about the workipg climate; since it will report directly to
him, there is every reason to expect that
such profound changes as may be requi~ed can be instituted from his office.
People should have no fear that a necessary change cannot be made because "you
can't buck the system ." If necessary, the
system can be changed from the top .

Pet · peeves
To the Editor:
As is the case every year, the Security
department ·finds itself in the position of
having to remind students about the pet
policy here on campus . Basically, it is as
follows :
Pets a re allowed o n campus only under
the physical control of their owners or
keepers.
Pets are never allowed in any of the
buildings.
T yi ng a pet to a railing or tree does not
constitute physical control.
Many people do not like to smell, step
in. or wa tch out fo r dog droppings. In the
case of the cu stodial people, they don't
lil...e t'' clean it up.
l'erhap~ even more important is the fact

A couple of weeks ago, you published a
story on one of the most unique bands
around - to wit - the Versitones . Well,
the point of this letter is not to plug the
Praire Tavern,. located at the Steamboat
Island Road turnoff . .. not at all . .. the
point is if the Versitones don' t draw
something resembling a crowd within two
weeks, they'll have to draw something
else - a pink slip: That would be a great

To the Editor :
Since our paper is one of the best ways
of spreading the word around here, we
would like to spread some words. The library is once again experiencing the problem of "where is the book ?"
Since the beginning of this quarter, library materials have been disappearing at
rather alarming rates. So much that more
and more we find ourselves having to tell
folks that we don't know where to find
the book, tape, print, or film reel of the
Tacoma Narrows Bridge collapse that
they're trying to find . Now - it appears
to us that people aren' t checking thirigs
out. So if you're one of the culprits, bring
those materials on hypnosis, crafts, the
occu lt, astrology , etc. ' back in here and let
us put them through the checkout system .
We'd like to think you aren' t really
stealing thin.gs, but that maybe you figured it would make it easier on everybody if you just walked out with the
items and brought them back when ,you
were finished . This is far from the truth
- we' re spending a lot of time looking
for what yo u forgot tQ check out, borrowing from o ther libraries what you
forgo l ·to check out , bu ying replacement

In Brief
STUDENTS CRITICIZE
S&A PROCEDURES
At the Tuesday , October 29, afternoon
meeting of the College Activities Funding
Disappearing Task Force (DTF) , charged,
among other things, with reviewing the
operational guidelines and policies of the
Services and Activities (S&A) Fees
Review Board, representatives of a
student group devoted to this task
submitted a written summation of what
they believe to be inadequacies in the
funding process at Evergreen.
"Critiquing sessions, " held about everyday for two weeks, and which culminated
in the writing of the document, involved
some 30 students . The students were primarily troubled by the October 15
meeting of the S&A by Director of
Auxiliary Services John Moss's vet€> of all
allocations made on that date, and by the
denial of monies to three Third World
groups at the meeting.
The students, however, are concerned
not only with the immediate problems
facing groups now seeking funds, but also
with long-range questions such as the implementation of affirmative action in
S&A procedures and the viability of certain positions within the funding structure. In short, the students want to set up
"a mechanism for revamping the entire
funding pr<;>cedure. "
Because the various sections of the
S&A guidelines are so closely interconnected, isolated change in one section
is virtually impossible and "to challenge
any one part of the guidelines is to challenge the entire document, " ;;aid the
students.
The brunt of the students' criticism rests
upon their contention that the S&A
Board, as presently constituted, is neither
representative of Evergreen's student body
nor truly accountable to it. The language
of its policies, and the policies themselves,
"tend to obscure and mystify real power
relationships. "
For the sake of analytical and
communicative ease, the students broke
down the guidelines under three related
headings and pointed up specific contradictions and inconsistencies within these
areas.
The Board, the students say, must
recognize the existence of what are
Page 10

usually referred to as "interest groups
among students, and that the interests of
faculty, staff, and students do not always
exactly coincide . With their statement that
"resolution of conflicts cannot take place
if these differences are not recognized, "
one member of the DTF observed that the
students' presence at the meeting amounted to nothing less than living proof that
"constituencies" do exist at Evergreen.
Because of some limitations , this
critique limited it s~lf to identifying both
general and specific problems . Yet,
students Don Martin and Greg Falxa insist
that it performs a necessary first step , and
its intent is anything but destructive . The
critique, they hope, is a basis on which to
proceed, and hopefully, by which to
rouse student interest and involvement.
Members of the DTF, too, recognize
well the necessity and importance of
finding viable solutions. Toward this end
a meeting has been scheduled for noon on
Friday, November 1 in the third floor
Activities building lounge .

took only one hour and fifteen minutes to
reach the decision .
Prosecuting Attorney Patrick Sutherland conducted the hearing, calling twenty-seven witnesses, including nine Evergreen students, facult y members Earle McNeil and Richard Jones, and Dean of Student Development Programs Larry Stenberg. Other witnesses included members
of the Thurston County Sheriff's Department and paramedics who treated
Schneider at, the scene .
Pr osecuting Attorney Sutherland received the verdict and then instructed the
Thurston County Sheriff's Department to
close the investigation .
MEDIC I CONTINUES OPERATIONS
A cardiac victim has five , maybe s-ix
minutes . Six minutes to live . Unless emergency aid reaches him quickly he will
probably die.
Medic r," an emergency rescue system of
Thurston County, has saved several lives
since it began responding to alarms last
August 1. Designed to bring emergency
aid to victims within minutes, it has responded to a wide range of emergencies.
Among those a re car wrecks, cardiac victims, gunshot victims, house fires, and
drug-related mishaps.
For those familiar with the television
series "Emergency ," Medic I works essentially the same way . In fact , the "Emer-

CORONER'S INQUEST
RULES SCHNEIDER A SUICIDE
A jury of six men returned a verdict on
Wednesday, October 30, unanimously declaring the death of Evergreen student
Vicki Faye Schneider a suicide.
About thirty people filled the chambers
of Judge Henry's courtroom at the Thurston County Courthouse Tuesday, to take
part in the public inquest held at the
request of Coroner Hollis Fultz. Due to
some uncertainties surrounding Schneider's death, Fultz decided to exercise his
powers as coroner to call for the inquest .
Dr . James Bremner, an Olympia
psychiatrist , said the journal left by
Schneider constituted the "actual formation of suicide intent. " Toward the end of
her writings there was an "actual suicide
note" left, said Bremner in his testimony.
He read parts of the journal to emphasize
his theory . It seemed to him that there
was a definite progression to apathy and
depression, leading to suicide.
The proceedings lasted about eight
hours on Tuesday, and adjourned until
the following morning. On the morning
of October 30, the jury was given their
instructio ns and retired to deliberate . It

gency" series may be credited for popularizing the Medic I type of system throughout the country.
· Following the example of Seattle's
Medic I and even taking the same name,
Thurston County residents voted for the
program last November. One mill (one
one- thousandth ) of county taxe s was
given to start it.
Incorporated into the fire departments
of the county, Medic I was brought about
through highly specialized training and
equipment. Almost all firefighters, including volunteers, were given 81 hours of
emergency medical technician training,
while others went on to the intensive two
thousand hour paramedic course . While
all stations have emergency medical technicians (EMT's), the paramedics are based
only in the central Olympia and Lacey
stations. The paramedic van responds to
almost all of the medical emergencies,
however.
Well trained and organized, Medic I
personnel maintain skills through continued training and team coordination
drills . Volunteers are relied upon heavily
as part of the backup network .
A typical alarm would go something
like this : It's 10 :30 p .m. A modulating
alarm pierces the air and men scramble.
The driver runs to the aid van, unlocking
doors and starting the engine up while the
attendant waits for the dispatcher in
Lacey to give him the address. It's a bad
car smash-up at the intersection of East
. Mud Bay and Cooper Point Road. Within
60 seconds of hearing the alarm the aid
van is on its way . Volunteers have been
alerted and are on their way to man the
station .
Arriving on the scene at practically the
same time as the State Patrol. the EMT's
rush to a victim who seems in critical
condition . The victim has been thrown 50
feet from his car and a check of his vital
signs indicates his breathing and heart
have stopped. While pne EMT applies the
oxygen mask, the other begins cardiac
pulmonary resuscitation .
The State Patrolmen give aid to a less
critical victim and the paramedic van arrives. In the meantime the nearest hospital
is alerted, the emergency room is readied
and close communication is kept up with
the doctor there.
The paramedics set up their "defib" unit
which they use to shock electrically the
victim's heart back to a steady, even beat.
Artificial respiration has been given and
the victim's breathing is restored.
On word from the doctor at the hospital the victim is transported · to the emergency room in the paramedic van and the
other victim is taken in the aid van.
Evergreeners will be comforted to know
that Medic I is as close as the campus fire
station. Alarms on the campus can
usually be responded to within two minutes and ambulance service for student
emergencies is free since the school
bought the station's new aid van. About "
Oc:tober 31, 1974

quarter of the calls the campus fi re sta tion
responds to are on campus .
In the past week and a half the campus
fire station has responded to a house fire,
a car wreck, a heart a ttack, and several
serious individual illnesses. T hey respond
to an average of two alarms a day . In the
entire Medic I system there have been 900
alarms since August 1.
Students are reminded that 3333 is the
number for emergencies only.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
STUDIED
A Disappearing Task Force (DTF) dealing with Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) and the Campus Master Plan
has been formed, and held its first meeting Wednesday, October 23. Members of

the DTF are : Richard Cellarius (chairperson), Steve Herman, William Knauss, Oscar Soule, Pete Taylor, AI Wiedemann
and Spider Burbank. Jerry Schillinger, as
Director of Facilities, will act as Evergreen's " responsible official." Schillinger
and his staff will be responsible for the
actual preparation, editorial review, publication, and submission of the college
EIS's .
The DTF was formed in the midst of a
controversy over the building of new
structures on campus wi thout an adequa te
look at the impact that such projects and
thei r construction would have on unique
natural environmental feat ures of the
campus.

said that in his interpretation of the State
Environmental Policy Act (SEP A), EIS's
are required in the planning of any project, even if decisions on things such as location have been firm since the 1971 revision of the Master Plan. Cellarius in his
memo explored the possibility of using
parking lots as alternate locations for
buildings . " I really do not like them (parking lots) and believe TESC needs to take
the lead in encouraging less use of the private automobile," because the buildings
would then have less direct ill).pact on the
environment, unlike the Lab annex or
Communications building. Even though
there was an EIS on the Communications
building, it could have been better, according to Cellarius .
Some of the objectives of the DTF will
be the possible preparation of an EIS on
the Campus Mast~ r Plan, modification of
the plan, and to "zone" the campus for
particular purposes.
In the preparation of the EIS 's, such
programs as The Evergreen Environment,
Applied Environmental Studies, and Environmental Law may supply manpower,
research, and other resources.

"What we are requesting is very minimal
considering the service we will be providing. "
Because of the number of search and
rescue incidents on campus last year, Apgood observed that the interest level in
such an organization is high this year .
The team would eventually service the
entire Thurston County area, but would
be restricted to Evergreen students, faculty, and staff for participation.
Interested people may contact Apgood

bers Don Jordan and Cruz Esquivel in
Native American Studies. The program
would be called Native American L#e Experience and would be innovative in that
it would involve building a functional traditional Indian village.
They are anticipating the construction
of seven structures, each representing a
different Native American cultural group
such as Northwest coast , California ,
Southwest, Plains, Woodlands, or Southeast Indian . Students would participate in
real life situations characteristic of those
Indian cultures. As an example, Jordan
explained that because Indian culture was
always transmitted verbally through the
generations, . mythology, rituals, -songs,
and dances will be learned by the traditional memorization techniques.
During that day, Jordan and the Native
American Studies program took a survey
on student reaction to the proposed program . The Input Resource Senter has distributed the results. Out of the 132 interviewed, 76 percent felt that Native American studies was a vital learning resource
and 6 percent disagreed . When asked if
they felt it would be a good idea to build
a traditional and functional Indian village
72 percent said yes while 12 percent disagreed . Fifty-two percent indicated that
they would work on it while 35 percent
said they wouldn' t. However, 76 percent
indicated they would use it against 7 percent who wouldn't.
The survey was informal and some of ,
the responses were qualified with comments like : "not unless it's a Northwest
Indian village," "it should not be on campus," and "I don't favor it, but I wouldn' t
object if it were done ." Jordan was encouraged with the positive response in
favor of the program, and he expects acceptance of the program by the deans.

Since early in September, Evergreen has
had an official Search and Rescue T earn
working and organizing on campus.
The team would assist Security in
searching for missing or lost persons and
in emergencies such as fires , accidents,
and natural disasters.
In an emergency situation in the past ,
Security has had to "knock on doors for
volunteers," said Rob Apgood, coordinator for the team . He explained that because of the lack of organization and
training, this has proven inefficient.
The team will have four coordinators,
thoroughly trained in Search and Rescue
techniques and First Aid, who will organize and train the rest of the group . They
are now exploring additional resources for
this training.
Search and Rescue has presented a budget to the Services and Activities Board

Dispute over media access
BY JAY K EN T

The opening weeks of fall quarter have
seen a .conflict arise over the use of certain pieces of video equipment. With the
only portable mul ti-camera systems in the
hands of the Public Infor ma tion and Minority Affairs Group Con tract (PIMA ),

Faculty member Sid White and his gro up
contract members have first priority on
the media··equipmen t.
October 31, 1974

individual students and other programs
are finding it hard to make high-quality
productions .
PIMA acquired the equipment, which
consists of the two operable portable
television systems at Evergreen , and
approximately 50 % of available television
studio time, through the efforts of- its
faculty sponsor , Sid White . White
requested the equipment before the beginning of fall quarter through Academic
Dean Byron Youtz . With Yves Duverglas,
the head of Media Loan, an arrangement
was made whereby PIMA would have the
equipment on extended loan . However,
each person seems to have a different
conception of the length of that loan.
Duv"erglas said "about a month; " -W hite
said "the first part of the quarter; " and
Willie Parson, now academic dean in
charge of equipment, said " for the
duration of the contract. " The contract is
scheduled to last one year.
"I was against the whole thing," Duverglas said in an interview. "If I have just
one piece of equipment, I would not lend
it to anyone or any program, I don't care
who the hell it is, on a permanent basis. "
Duverglas added that if students outside
of PIMA had need of the Panasonic
system, "Sid said send them to him and
something would be worked out. "
Such a student is Norm Levy, a fourthyear student in media, majoring in television . He is part of Cometronics, a group
of individual contracts in television

production that covered the Paul Winter
Consort last year as well as a Jazz
Concert Simulcast done in conjunction
with KAOS-FM . Cometronics arranged
this year to cover concerts fo r the Gig

, a student in media, feels that
students are being denied the free access
to equipment they deserve.

concert on November 3.
"I went to Sid to arrange to use the
equipment," said Levy. "Sid s,a id no, go
ta lk to Willie Parson."
In an interview last week, White said
tha t he didn' t want to be hoarding the
equipment and he stressed his belief that
the college should provide more equipment. "The college has a committment to
those students (in a media group contract)
t)lat they will have continuous access to
that equipment because they're doing that
full time for full credit. I am looking out
fo! t!te students in this contract."

tive action was to seek funds . for a new
system . The S&A Board approved his request fo r $3,800, but that meeting was
subseq uen tl y declared illegal and the
money was taken back. (See the October
17 Journal, vol. 3, no.4 ) There is still a
possibility that the rer:nest will again be
granted , but Levy remains bitter about

'Couldn't Share It'
While sta ting that he had no doubts
about the value of Levy's project, White
said, "When Norm came to see me I did
not feel, particularly at the beginning of
the year when we were getting our act together and when all the people have to
learn to use that equipment, that we
could share it. "
,
The need for the system is to cover
Sounding Board meetings and other
events of interest to the Evergreen community, and to train new video students
in the use of the equipment, he added .
When asked how often the Panasonic
system is used, White replied, "We've
been., using the Panasonic system every
day.
One of the PIMA students strongly
disagreed when told of White's statement.
When asked the same question, another
student, Milton Hig htower , technical
director of the Panasonic system, said the
system is used "at least once a week, for
Sounding Board meetings ." He added that
the equipment also came into use for the
training purposes . This averaged about
once a week "in the mornings," he said .
At the time of the interview, White said
tha t two Sounding Board meetings had
been taped, neither of broadcast quality .
When asked for a list of the coming
month' s productions, he said , " We
havent't gotten that far. "
Planning in Advance
In co mparison wjth White, Levy's
project was not planned well in advance
of the opening of the quarter. Sue Smith,
head of Library Circulation, said, "Sidney
planned his thing early and got his request in. I don' t think that's hoarding, I
think that's good planning. The other
people should have got their shit together."
Dean Parson said he feels that the
equipment is put to better use in a group
contract or program because more
students receive exposure to that equipment. When asked what arrangement was
made for students outside of PIMA to use
the system , Parson said , "None. "
Meanwhile, Cometronics awaits Chick
C"rea without eauipment. Levv's alterna-

.the situation . "It says in the catalog that
this is libra ry equipment, " complained
Levy. "It wasn't bought by academics . The
common knowledge was that the equipment would be there for check-out to
qualified people. And now Si'cl White has
100 percent control of it ."

(Below are descriptions of the candidates and issues appearing
on this area 's ballot, ·condensed without comment from the official
vo'ters' pamphlet and campaign literature. Below each, in italics,
are the Journal's endorsements and an explanation of why.)
Referendum Bill 34 : Shall a state lottery be conducted under
gambling commission regulations with prizes totalling not less
than 45 percent of gross income?
Pro: As of 1972 a state lottery is no longer illegaL The main purpose of such a lottery would be to raise money for the state, and
it would be conducted under the strict supervision of the State
Gambling Commission to assure fairness and public safety. There
would then be an impartial and honest avenue for betting in the
state.
Con: A lottery would raise less than one percent of the total budget of the state. It would not cut taxes, and the odds against
winning are of course extremely high .
NO
The Journal opposes a State lottery because state lotteries are
rip-offs. The fact is that a person so inclined to gamble would
have better odds going to the race track or a gambling casino .
The key to gambling is return o~;~ the amount wagered, and statesponsored lotteries return only a very small percentage. The greatest burden of the lottery would be on those who had the most to
lose and the least to gain from it : the poor. State-sponso red lottery or no , the wise gambler will gamble his money at a neighborhood poker game , where all the money that is wagered is returned.

•
Senate Joint Resolution 140 (Proposed Constitutional Amendment): Shall the governor's item veto power be restricted [eliminated] and the legislature be permitted to reconvene itself to consider vetoed bills 7
Pro: Washington is the only state in which the governor may
veto portions of a bill passed by the legislature and sign the rest
into law. This vests a great deal of discretionary power in a single
man.
Con : The item veto power, written into Washington's constitution
in 1889, is safeguarded by the fact that two-thirds of the legislat,ure can override an item veto by the governor. Also, the item
veto can be used to correct legislative mistakes (as in wordings).
YES
The item veto under Governor Evans has been an excellent tool.
He has used it to clarify obscure wordings and weed out extraneous amendments tacked onto a bill. As long as Evans is Governor the Journal would be·glad to keep the item veto on the books .
But the potential for abuse is Joo great. Another man - or
possibly the same man in another situation - ' could use the item
veto to change entirely the meaning and intent of .a bill. Technically, it would even be possible for the governor to strike the
word "not" from a bill, reversing its content. The item veto is too
dangerous a power for the state's chief executive to hold.

•
Senate Joint Resolution 143 (Proposed. Constitutional Amendment): Shall a thirty-day durational residency requirement be established for voting by otherwise eligible citizens 18 years of age
or over?
Pro: This resolution brings state law, which currently requires a
much longer residency requirement, into line with the Supreme
Court ruling on the subject, and repeals provisions which prohibit
untaxed Indians, persons unable to read or speak English, and 1820 year olds, from voting.
Con: Chief Justice Burger dissented from the court decision : " .
Page 16

for a state to require newcomers to be exposed to state and local
problems for a reasonable period such as one year before voting
(is fair) ."

YES
State law should be in accordance with the ruling of the nation 's
highest court. State Rep. Kuehnle, Evergreen 's arch-opponent in
the legislature and this resolution 's only signed opponent, is afraid
it will "allow 'temporary residents' such as college students in
small college towns to dominate elections - then leave town ."
Most Evergreeners would probably like the right to vote here, and
it looks like it's us that Kuehnle is referring to .

WARREN G. MAGNUSON
Warren Magnuson is a relatively gcwd Senator. His voting and
speaking have generally followed a gc;10d liberal lin e and he is a

UNITED STATES REPRESENTATIVE:

A. Ludlow Kramer, Washington's Secretary of State for the last

DON BONKER
Although Ban ker and Kramer are not terribly disparate in their

Kramer is becoming more and more of a "politician " in the pejorative sense, a quotable and media-oriented candidate who has engaged in too much misrepresentation and one-upsmanship in this

ANN CLIFTON
Again the Democratic candidate seems to have less of an

Perhaps Governor Dan Evans said it best :
"You bet I'm supporting Lud Kramer for Congress. He's done a tremendous job for
our state. People should remember it was Lud Kramer who opened up our state
elective process to thousands of minorities and other disenfranchised citizens. Lud
led the movement for the 18 year old vote, an d changing the legal age of adulthood to 18. Through commissions, councils, and task forces, Lud has been on the
forefront of educational reform - such as is exemplified at The Evergreen State
CoJ!ege. Lud and his staff wrote the campaign contributions and expenditures portions of the Public Disclosure Act (Initiative 276). I believe he would make an infinitely better congressman not only for the State of Washington, but also for this
district than his opponent."

The Counselors Strike
Student Paraprofessiona ls Walk Out
BY RACHEL ROUSSO AND
NICHOLAS H. ALLISON
On Wednesday, October 23, eleven student paraprofessional counselors working
in Evergreen's Counseling Services walked
off their jobs in protest of what they considered unfair working conditions. A
statemen t issued by the striking stt:dents
described their requests as "essential to
provid(ing) quality services."
The student employees had been negotiating since October 16 with Director of
Counseling Services Lou-Ellen Peffer and
Dean of Student Services Larry Stenberg
over a number of complaints about the
conditions under which they worked.
Three major issues were settled in these
negotiations. First, the paraprofessionals
felt they were not receiving sufficient
training in counseling, which they thought
they had been promised. Second, they
wanted more supervision from the three
full-time profe.s sional counselors who also
work in Counseling Services in order to
"continually upgrade our skills. " Third,
they wanted more space for one-to-one
counseling aRd for storage. These were all
resolved.
When two other major complaints remained unresolved, the paraprofessionals
sent a memo to Admi-nistrative Vice
President Dean Clabaugh, giving him 23
hours in which to meet their requests.

the end of that period, their demands unmet, they walked out.
The two unresolved demands of the
strikers are that they be paid for up to
19.5 hours per week of work instead of
the 15 they have been receiving, and that
extra money be allotted to the paraprofessionals for attending workshops and
bringing in consultants for "training that
can't be provided within Counseling Services."
The paraprofessionals claim that they
have been working an average of 18-20
hours per week in order to fulfill minimally "the responsibilities of their positions. " However, Peffer claims this is not
so. Some weeks the students work more
aod other weeks less, but. "on the average
they work 15 hours a week," Peffer
stated .
Regardless of whether their wages have
been unfair in the past, however, the students' statement demands "the option to
be compensated for up to 19. 5 hours a
week," since they see the extra time on
the job as essential and "are no longer
willing to do this without compensation."
Since the 15 paid hours in each week are
fully scheduled, hour by hour, the student workers feel they do not have the
chance to participate in other activities
they consider important which would take
up extra time, such as workshops, additional training, and crisis intervention.

Services organization to staff the campus
Drop-In Center during the strike, which
striker Eleana Perez called "an indication
that the administration is no\ 'willing to
negotiate - that they are stalling and
postponing ." Another striking paraprofessional claimed that " they are asking
people who have not had tra ining to
work in the Drop-In Center. "
The Drop-In Center is a room normally
staffed by Counseling Services personnel
which serves the campus community for
crisis interveAtion, informal counseling,
mformat10n sJch as phone numbers or resource referrals, and "idea exchange ."
But according to Peffer the volunteers
working at lhe Center for the duration of
the strike have in fact had training in crisis intervention, "though not necessarily
·here at Evergreen. " She also indicated that
the replacement staffers were not actually
solicited, as the strikers had claimed, but
had instead volunteered their help.
The students claimed that having replacemen t personnel at the Drop-In
Center was unnecessary as well - that
for crisis intervention various agencies in
the area are available for backup including Campus Security, the fire station, and
the Crisis Clinic . They also have no quarrel wi th the professional counselors on the
staff - LeRoi Smith, Michelle Hayes, and
Peffer - staffing the Center during the
strike.

Trying to Gain Exemption

~ ~------------------~
~

Elena Perez is one of the only two strikers
w/w ha~, e been paraprofessional counselors for over two years.
Page 20

All student employees at Evergreen are
paid for only 15 hours per week, and
Peffer emphasized that "these (striking)
students are trying to gain an exemption
from a rule which applies to all other employed students. If they think the policy's
unfair, they should be trying to get the
policy jtself changed, not trying to gain
exceptions." She ·added that a disappearing task force (DTF) will investigate the
college's policy on student employment in
the near f\l ture.
However, Cathy Bumstead, one of the
striking paraprofessionals, said she considers this inadequate. "Their response
was : Wait until next quarter. Wait till we
form a DTF to investigate student employment. This is a typical Evergreen attitude. " Another student striker claimed
that this response amounted to a "stalling
tactic" on the part of the administration.
Another administration response to the
paraprofessionals' strike was the use of
volunteers from outside the Counseling

~
ct"'

Lou-Ellen Peffer tion are essential. "

"Time and cooperaCooper Point Journal

The striking paraprofessional counselors confer - "(The strike) is the most effective way
to move toward resolving issues which are vital to the functioning of Counseling Servic,e s."
As is the case in most strikes, the demands of the paraprofessional counselors
require money and it is on money that
most of the negotiations taking place between them and the administration center.
Counseling Services receives its funding
from " Program 0~ , " the student services
program , which m~:ans that the money
comes from tax revenue allocated to Evergreen rather than L·om actual student
funds. Due to a miscalculation made last
spring Counseling Services has insufficient
money in its budget to pay legally each
paraprofessional for 15 scheduled hours of
work. Peffer indicated that this money
would be obtained from the Financial Aid
office or Clabaugh's discretionary fund, a
fund at his disposal for special uses like
this one.
The presence of this error has complicated the problem of satisfying the strikers' demands, since Peffer would like to
resolve this first question and then see
where the budget stands before making a
decision on increasing the paraprofessionals' monies.
The students, however, are not willing
to wait. Striker Susan Wooley explained
that she saw no reason why , if reserve
money was available to Counseling Services, it should not be used to pay for their
requests. " We've researched this, " she
said, "and we've tried to match the resources available with our bare minimal
needs. " Co-worker Carol Curts added, " I
used · to work in financial aid before
becoming a paraprofessional counselor. I
know that at the end of the year there is
always money left over. "
Perez commented, "President McCann
gets 50 percent of all reserve funds. Every
year he sits on it and at the end of the
year he gives it a ll to the library to buy
books."
OctobPr .l J 1974.

Some of the uses to which the striking
students feel this reserve money could be
put include:
- extra training. Outside experts could
be brought in for workshops and consultation, which the students say there is
neither the money nor the paid time for
now.
- conferences. Numerous outside conferences in counseling and counseling-related fields occur which the student paraprofessionals are sometimes unable to attend .
- workshops. In the additional 4.5 salaried hours a week they are requesting,
the paraprofessionals could hold workshops to supplement their individual
counseling.
- equal traveling expenses with professionals. When the student paraprofessiona l counselors attend a conference
along with one or more of the salaried
professionals on the staff, they are not
given money for food and other incidentals as the professionals are.
- crisis intervention. When a case
which needs immediate attention comes
into Counseling Services just before a student counselor is scheduled to leave, there
is pressure on him to stay without pay.
Striker Jim Spivey said, "If someone
comes in at 1:55 in the afternoon I can' t
exactly say , ' Hey, we've got to get this
settled because I go home in five minutes. "'
Who Should Decide?
Peffer has objections to several of these
requests. Although the students want the
option of working with pay beyond the
15-hour limit, she feels it is her job and
responsibility to decide how much the
paraprofessionals under her supervision
shou ld work.

Their request for increased funds for
traveling to and attending outside conferences is unreasonable, according to Peffer,
since they are the only student group in
the school funded for such activities at
all. It is routine for professional staffers
such as the full-time counselors to have
all expenses paid when attending outside
professional events, but in no other cases
are student paraprofessionals funded similarly.
All the student paraprofessionals are in
individual contracts, with LeRoi Smith as
sponsor and Peffer as sub-contractor.
None of the students receives academic
credit for
their work as counselors.
Under their contracts they study various
counseling-related fields such as research
and statistical analysis.
Wooley summed up her case and that
of her co-workers like this: "We are in
this type of work because we care about
people. It is hard for me to say, 'No, I
wo n't make myself available to people :· It
is an agonizing situation. It would be better for us and the Evergreen community if
this thing were resolved as quickly as
possible ."
But Peffer states the administration's
position this way: "On every issue except
that of travel expenses, we are basically in
agreement with the paraprofessionals.
"But where we differ is on how you get
something ·accomplished. Whether we like
it or not Evergreen has certain governances that are imposed by the state and the
college itself . Things can not always be
resolved immediately . In order to work
under the college and state governances
time and cooperation are essential.
Demands like these can't be met
immediately."

Curriculum
Planning

and
the
BY KIM GOODMAN

Dissatisfaction with the processes of
curriculum planning, resulting from problems that arose at the beginning of the
quarter, has led to the development of an
organized student movement led by
Evergreener Geoff Rothwell.
Students have never been completely
satisfied with academic planning and its
results in previous years. However, the

problems of overenrollment and lack of
programs in certain academic areas that
appeared this year elicited enough antagonism that direct student involvement
with curriculum planning has become an
apparently viable alternative to previous
years' planning.
At a meeting last Wednesday, October
23, a series of workshops was discussed
with a group of students and faculty that
desired to find out more about how curriculum planning could be constructively
changed, and what they could do about

it.

Two very distinct points of view
emerged at the me.e ting . One group of
students indicated that they were dissatisfied with some programs and certain areas
of study 9-nd wanted to learn how to propose group · contracts and coordinated
studies programs to deal with their dissatisfaction. The other group was concerned
with the curriculum planning system in
general , that is, how the deans make
planning decisions, by what criteria they
make their decisions, and how students

members can tell the students what
processes are used in program development, outlining the authority of the deans
and previous experiences of the faculty.
The third workshop will deal with ideas
that people have brought up and what
they think, giving and taking suggestions
to try and determine what is and is not
needed. Proposals to the deans would also
be firmed up at that time.
Two Main Objectives

Academic Dean Rudy Martin - ''I'm
willing to work with the students to help
them have the most effect on planning,
through the faculty. "
can affect this system. Results fro~ this
meeting and one held Thursday , October
31 will determine what will be included in
the workshops.
Administrators are Receptive
Though the movement to involve
students directly with planning did not
come from administrators involved in
planning, they are receptive to the idea .
Academic Dean Rudy Martin said , "I
think the idea of these workshops is great,
and I am willing to work with the
students to help them have the most effect
on planning, through the faculty. "
In its present form, curriculum planning
is done , as Rothwell put it, with "the
deans deciding, the faculty designing, and
the students desiring. " The workshops
that he has organized will hopefully
change that.
The workshops are to be held on
November 6 and 20 af noon in Activities
building rm. 110, and on November 13 at
noon in one of the lecture halls, which
hall depending on student response.
General Orientation to Planning Process
Although exact topics for the workshops are not yet definite, Rothwell said
that the first workshop would deal with
general orientation to curriculum planning, outlining of problems, presentations
by students who have helped prepare
programs and group contracts before,
ideas on what students want to discuss
such as proposals that could be worked
on, and getting people together who want
. to work toward similar goals.
The second workshop will be presentation"oriented, said RothwelL Deans and
faculty will be invited to attend and express what they expect planning to look
like in a year. Rothwell hopes the faculty
October -3i, 1974

Rothwell feels that there will be two
main objectives to work on after the
workshops have been completed. Proposals will have to be made to the administration to effect any changes which
will take the cooperation of involved students. Critiques of the system will have to
be presented, and if students at that time
wish to make program proposals, faculty
and students will have to be found to
teach and participate in the programs before the proposals can be accepted .
Administration sta nds on the issue of
curriculum planning ha ve previously been
that it is the responsibility of the faculty
to develop curriculum, though this view
has not been extremely rigid. Martin
pointed out that last years' Male and
Female Roles program and this years Developmental Learning program were
primarily designed by students. When
asked if there was any reason why
students, if properly informed on the procedu res of curriculum planning, could not
su bmit programs for consideration, Martin replied that there was no reason · that
they could n ot do so, but qualified this by
sayi ng that it must go through the faculty
that would be involved with the proposed
program.
This would mean that if students proposed a program for which the~:e was no
faculty available, unless the college
needed that type of faculty member for
ot her reasons · besides that specific
program, the program could not be
accepted. He also said that to have a program accepted, the student proposing the
program or group contract would have to
find a faculty person willing to teach it
and enough students to participate in the
program or contract, "The faculty are
hired for the college, not the programs,"
said Martin.

Cookbook will not be ab le to deal with
mistrust generated in the past, said Martin
it should at least clear up the details of
planning. He a lso indicated that there will
be another student survey, but that it
would be in an improved fo rm over preceding years to help relieve some of the
problems in planning.
Other questions have been raised by
Rothwell regarding the position of nonteaching staff that accept contracts while
not being paid for taking the contracts.
He gave as a n example the fact that some
individuals in the college's businesss management section have accepted contracts
in their fields without having a teaching
background or getting paid for their work
in this capacity, which indicates a lack of
planning preparation for academic areas
such as business. When asked about this,
Martin explained that the staff members
who accept these contracts have done so
on a volunteer basis, and are not required
to accept them even though they are
doing it above and beyond their regular
jobs and are not' paid for it.

One further proposal by Rothwell is
that a Curriculum Review Board be •
established somewhat along the lines of '
the Student Services and Activities (S&A)
Review Board to give students greater
control in final curriculum planning decisions.
It is felt by all parties involved in the
curriculum planning dilemma that a great
degree of student involvement, and the
cooperation of everyone involved, will be
needed to make any changes in curriculum planning and planning workshops
successful.

Cookbook
Martin added that the Curriculum
Planning DTF has prepared a "Curriculum Planning Cookbook" that will be
released next week. The Cookbook details
the roles of administrators, faculty and
students in relation to planning, specifies
the functions of planning, and gives
guidelines for program planning .
The Cookbook will be distributed to
campus offices so students will have
access to it and can prepare the programs
they desire to be reviewed. Though the

Student Geoff Rothwell is the organizer of

BACK IN THE OZONE AGAIN
The SST. Remember it? The last great
battle won by environmentalists? Well, it
has surfaced again, though this time not
as an evil influence, but as a warning
mechanism for things to come.
As a result of research conducted to
study the effects of SST exhaust emissions
oh the upper atmosphere, information has
come to light that at best is disconcerting,
at worst frightening. Data from this research indicates that Freon , an in ert
fluorocarbon used ·as a refrigerant and as
the spray propellant in deoderants, insecticides, hairsprays, and . almost anything
that comes in a spray can, can have a
profound and direct effect on the upper
atmosphere (stratosphere).
Freon may have the effect of removing
significant amounts of ozone from the
stratosphere, which is important because
ozone prevents certain wavelengths of
harmful ultraviolet radiation from reaching the earth's surface where it can harm
humans, plants and other animal life.
What indirect impact this radiation
reaching the surface of the earth will have
is not precisely known by anyone at this
time. However, there would be a significant rise in the incidence of skin cancer in
humans, with other effects possible on
plankton, climate, and land plants and
animals.
1 spoke with Harold S. Johnston,
Protessor of Chemistry at the University
of California at Berkeley, and James P.
Friend, Professor of Atmospheric Chemistry, Drexel University, Philadelphia, to
gain further insights into the problem of
ozone destruction in the stratosphere.
Johnston -has authored several stud.i es
and articles on ozone formation and destruction and is a member of a special
National Academy of Sciences (NAS)
committee to study and make recommendations on this problem . Friend is a
member of another NAS group, . the
climatic impact committee , which is
studying the effects of SST exhaust
fluorocarbons and other man-made poilu~
tants on climatic conditions.
At this point of . research into the
problem, Johnston, Friend, and other researchers in the field all state that not
enough is known about the problem or
the complex nature of the atmosphere to
say for certain what will really happen,
but the magnitude of the problem is
potentially so great that time cannot be
wasted waiting in the normal manner for
years and years of research to take place .
One researcher ras said that the usual

Paae

:.u

ten-year wait to study theoretical proposals would be too long, and by the time
anything could be done to stop the
damage to the atmosphere it would be too
late to prevent a disaster if the research
revealed that one was going to happen.
ln the case of the SST , Johnston

estimated that if 500 Boeing SST's were
built and flew an average of eight hours a
day per day per year, by 1985 a one
percent decrease in the ozone layer would
be noted due to reactions with oxides of
nitrogen in SST exhaust. Such a decrease

would cause an increase of eight thousand
cases of skin cancer per year in the white
population of the United States, (Skin
pigmentation is able to shield many of the
harmful rays) and could cause skin aging
in general to accelerate. Johnston said that
if this amount of ozone decomposition
took place due to the SST, it would take
the ozone layer about eight to ten years
to recover its former level of ozone once
SST use was stopped.
··,
This is not the case for Freon, though.
Due to accumulation of freon in the lower
atmostphere and its slow dispersion into
the stratosphere, the half-time for ozone
replacement would be 20-30 years rather
than the one to two years for SST
exhaust. This would mean approximately .
a one to two hundred year interval for
the ozone to recover completely.
An added problem would be that it is
improbable that the use of Freon would
decrease or stop to allow the ozone layer
to recover. At the present time, the use of
Freon is growing at a rate of 10-20
percent a year and between the years 1960
and 1972 its use increased by 22 percent
per year. The United States alone will
produce and use about 800 million
pounds of Freon in 1974.
As far as the lower atmosphere is concerned, measurements have been taken

that show that ozone concentrations have
doubled in the last two years. According
to Science News, if the 22 percent growth
rate in Freon use is continued, the ozone
layer would be reduced by 40 percent by
1994. At a ten percent growth rate,
stopped in 1995, the ozone layer would be
reduced by the same percentage by the
year 2014. A 40 percent decrease in the
ozone layer would produce an increase of
536,000 cases of skin cancer per year in
the United States alone.
Johnston explained the mechanism of
Freon breakdown and introduction into
the stratosphere in the following manner:
When Freon is released into the lower
atmosphere, it is inert and can do no real
damage. Upon reaching the upper
atmosphere, exposure to yltraviolet radiation causes the breakdown of the Freon
into its chemical components - carbon,
fluorine and chlorine. The free chio.rine in
turn breaks the ozone down into oxygen
· atoms and oxygen molecules.
This would not be extremely dangerous
in ..--itself, epeept for the fact that it is
possibk for one chlorine atom to break
down many thousands of ozone molecules. Even though ozone is produced in
great quantities naturally, when materials
such as chlorine from Freon of oxides of
nitrogen from SST's are produced in
quantities greater than what can be
produced naturally, the balance Is upset,
and the effect cannot be offset.
An especially ironic twist becomes
apparent in the story of ozone. In recent
years, increasing pollution from industry
and automobiles has caused an increase of
ozone in dang~rous proportions in the
lower atmosphere due to interaction between hydrocarbons, sunlight, and oxides
of nitrogen. Ozone, w hen in contact with
living organisms , humans in particular,
can cause respiratory damage and other
health problems, and severe damage to
some plant life. It appears that our fair
planet suffers the possibility of too much
and too little ozone in the right places at
the wrong times.
The proof is not conclusive, though,
that this is what will happen, as Friend
indicated. There ar~ so many variables to
take into consideration and it would be so
easy to miss some of them, without much
more research , that nothing can be known
for certain right now . Johnston and the
NAS committee he is serving on have
recommended that the problem be studied
very intensely for the next few years to
determine for sure what will happen, and
has affirmed that it is a very serious
problem. "If all indications are true or
close to being true , we may be in very
bad trouble by the turn of the century,
with no real alternati~e routes for
successful correction of the problem ," said
Johnston.
The moral antl environmenta l ramifications of a problem such as this are

effect the non-marginal areas. Phytoplankton (microscopic water plants),
which produce most of the earth's free
oxygen, could be destroyed by large
amounts of ultraviolet radiation allowed
to reach the planet's surface because of
the lessened ozone layer.
Although many of these harmful effects
might no t occur, because of indications
that they indeed will happen, we cannot
ignore Johnston's warning . It may give us
a chance to avert what could become one
of the major and possibly the last
environmental disaster~ that we will have
the opportunity to create.

wide incidence of skin cancer on the order
of two million new cases per year, due
primarily to the use of Freon in airconditioning, hairsprays and other such spray
luxuries by U.S. citizens and the rest of
Western Civilization. Because of the
threat of skin cancer, many of those in
these countries will for the first time be
directly · affected by their misuse of the
environment.
Other problems stemming from ozone
destruction will also be manifold. Even a
10-20 percent decrease of the ozone layer
could cause farming in marginal areas to
suffer, and a greater percentage may even

It is this element of gladness which
shines through the recorded work of Return to Forever . The delicacy and classical
precision of Satie, combined with the freedom of expression found in earth music
the world around, create here a new
music that is only contained by the arbitrary titles assigned by writers and promoters telling the listener what he or she
might hear.
The current incarnation of Return to
Forever is based in the rhythmic structures of "rock," while reaching into the
vocabulary of jazz and even classical
music to present a total package of expression. The musicianship is unimpeachable. Included in the band that will be appearing at Evergreen on Sunday, November 3 are Chick Corea, pianos and synthesizers ; Stanley Clarke, acoustic and
electric basses ; Lenny White, drums and

This band has been together since June

Too often in today's cut-throat world ,

JOKERS & .GANGSTERS
One of the most satisfying movies to
come to Evergreen this year is Carol
Reed's classic thriller Th e Third f0an.
Adapted by Graham Greene from his
novel , this 1949 British production
follows the pursuit of a penicillin racketeer in the menacing nightworld of postwar Vienna. Shot almost entirely on location and largely at night , The Third Man
lis a very black movie . Huge shadows
bouncing off sewer walls and glistening
streets, footsteps echoing from nowhere,
and the isolated atmosphere of the entire
city itself build up the mood of lurking
horror, which slackens only for occasional black comedy relief, and finally
outdoes itself in the desperate sewer chase
at the end.
Joseph Cotten is the ignor~nt and naive
American pulp writer who assists the
military police in the pursuit of the
self-loving Harry Lime, played in loathsome splendor by the self-loving Orson
Welles. One o£ the best sequences in the
movie is the meeting between Cotten and
Welles on the gigantic ferris wheel in the
middle of an empty amusement park .
Cotten asks Welles if he has ever seen one
of the victims of his watered-down
penicillin , " Victims? " Welles replies .
" Don ' t be melodramatic . Look down
there. Would you really feel any pity it
one of those dots stopped moving
forever?
"If I said you could have twenty thousand pounds for every dot that stops,
would you really, old man, tell me to
keep my money? Or would you calculate
how man y dots you can afford to spare?
Free of income tax, old man . Free of income tax ." In this little scene the secret of
the guilt-free terrorist, mass murderer,
and bomber pilot is revea led : Never look
a victim in the face .
Cotten is the dumb but good hero of it
all , common to a million other movies,
but in Th e Third Man he never wises up,
and although the villain gets it in the end,
our hero ends up being rejected by
everybody else . The usual fantasies of the
male mo vie-goer are burst - heroines do
not necessa rily swoon in the hero's arms
at the end by being overcome by his
honesty, good intentions, moral virtue,
and down-home stupidity .
Carol Reed's stylish direction is brilliant. Robert Krasker's location photography, the haunting zither music by Anton
Karas, as well as the acting and wellwritten screenplay, make The Third Man

a thoroughly enjoyable, tough-minded
movie.

stru ggle to keep from being swallowed by
the "machinery" which once brought him
success and thereby threatened to trap
him for the rest of his life. This machinery , which always remains very much in
the background of the film, is exemplified
by an unnamed underworld crime organiza tio n in Detroit. It is from this group of
men th at he naively accepts the investments of the orga nization as gifts and favors and discovers, only too la te, that they
have achieved full ownership not only of
his career but of his very life as well.
He escapes, leaving the city, his identit y, and hopefull y his entrapment, and in
so doing melts into the nameless world of
the transient. It is from this semi-conscious world that he acquires a new identity and a new life. Reborn in the m onster
city of Chicago, our previously unnamed
hero becomes, by right of a stolen social
security card, Mikelous O nechev - something-or-other (a n unpronounceably long
Polish name), which is shortened by the
boss of his first job to Mickey One .
It isn' t long before Mickey again finds
himself relying on his talents as an entertainer and once again finds himself confronted by the machinery which once
threatened his life . The movie is not a
complete down-and-out story, however,
for author Alan Surgal has provided an
alternate avenue of escape which would
serve to break this insufferable cycle.
Director Arthur Penn, of Bonnie and
Clyde fame, expertly aligns the cinematic
tone with tha t of the story and makes
excellent use of the low-key jazz score.
Warren Beatty's acting lacks feeling and
the low budget of the feature shows
through in the general lack of polish, but
despite this, Mickey One is a very good
film , if only for the perspective it main- ·
tains on the avenues of success provided
by the more ruthless segments of our society.

THE NOBLE PUMPKIN
The word "pumpkin" comes from the
French pompion, a derivation of the
Greek pepon , meaning "cooked by the
sun." Despite this, Olympia's climate has
managed to support a healthy population
of the squashes to full ripeness and they
now ,lie heavy in gardens awaiti ng their
fate as jack-o-lanterns or pies.
It is my contention that pumpkins deserve closer attention, and Thoreau seems
to agree, saying, "I would rather sit on a
pumpkin and have the seat all to myself
than be crowded on a velvet cushion. "
The pumpkin's nobility can be celebrated
in a variety of ways, some of which ·follow. This first recipe is from France .
Gratin of Pumpkin with Rice: Halve a
pumpkin, removing seeds and stringy portion. Slice . into thin strips and peel.
Simmer the slices in butter . Cook rice in a
meat or vegetable stock. Butter well a
baking dish and sprinkle it generously
with your favorite cheese, grated . Place
alternate layers of pumpkin and rice in
baking dish, sprinkle with more cheese,
and pour melted butter over all. Bake in a
350-degree oven until browned. This recipe can be varied with the addition of
onions, walnuts, almonds, or anything
else you like.
Pumpkins are a good source of Vitamin
A and a fair source of iron. A ' good way
to enjoy these nutrients is in Pumpkin Ice
Cream. Mix one cup canned or cooked
pumpkin with 1lz teaspoon each of cinnamon and nutmeg, 114 teaspoon salt, and
Vz cup coarsely chopped nuts. Heat 1/z
cup milk. To the heated milk add 114 cup
sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved .

(If you'd rather use honey, m e 2-3 tablespoons and decrease the milk slightly.)
Stir milk and sugar into pumpkin mixture
and chill. Whip one cup heavy cream and
fold into the ch illed pumpkin mixture.
Pour into mold o r freezer tray and freeze
until firm .
For the natural food lovers I offer this
organ ic pumpkin cake: In a large mixing
bowl cream 11z cup butter with one cup

350-degree oven for about 40 minutes.
To cook your pumpkins for use in
pumpkin recipes or just to eat with
butter, salt, and pepper, two methods can
be used. For each, halve the pumpkin, removing seeds and the stringy portion . Cut
pumpkin into small pieces and peel. To
boil , cover with salted water and boil for
20-30 minutes or until tender. Mash or
force through a strainer. To steam the

raw sugar. (To be almost organic, use
brown sugar.) Add two eggs, one at a
time, beati ng well after each . Stir in 3/ •
cup milk or yogurt, one cup canned or
cooked pumpkin, 11z teaspoon ginger, one
teaspoon cinnamon , 11• teaspoon nutmeg,
one tablespoon baking powder, 'I• teaspoon -salt, and 2 11• cups whole wheat
flour. Beat well. Pour into a greased and
floured 9-inch tube pan and bake in a

pu_m pkin , place the peeled pieces in a
large steamer or strainer and steam over
boiling water in a' tightly covered
container for about 50 minutes or until
tender. Mash or force through strainer.
Fresh pumpkin is not available all year
round, but since pumpkins are a member
of the squash family , winter squash can
be substituted for the pumpkin in any of
the above recipes.
