What duties does your job invo lve?
What 1 do right now is plan and
administer the Career P lanning and
Placement office . 1 set up programs
planned to help students with the
transition between Evergreen and "the
world." I try to make career preparation congruent with the educational

that they shou ld auto maticall y have a

The first thing I do is to get their
transcript. It 's amazing how many
people don't know their own academic
history..
in reading the transcript

. . . then you ean start planning and
investigating. Job search is very resea r ch-or iented. The Career Resource
Center has many materials the
CIS computer, catalogs and pamphlets, people to talk to. In addition, we
sponsor Career Days . . volunteers
from various professions give . their
time to act as ro le models, conduct
sample interviews, answe r questions
about their professions. . . and we
have the Senior Seminar Series - involving everything from how to write
a resume to how to prepare your portfolio. Always, I encourage people to
know what they want in a job and
then to hold out for it.
What about taking "garbage jobs"
while waitillg for the_ perfect job?
Good and bad. Good because you
have to live while you're job-hunting.
Bad because you can use a job, any
job as an easy out, an excuse for not
actively looking.
Some peop le will build up an economi c base that will allow them to
li ve while seek ing jobs, others work
night s and hunt during the day. Either
way, it's important not to lose sight of
goals.
Evergrl!l'n students have had a high
employment-a fter-graduation rate i1l
th e past. What does it look like for
this year?
I'm a little apprehensive this year.
Things are tough - there's not a lot
of hiring going on out there . On the
other han d, Evergreen students have

which were tough. Somehow the way
that we do things here at Evergreen
makes peop le more assertative a
good asset in the job market.
How do you feef about your job ?
I just sort of fell into the job
it's congruent with my personality.
On one hand I tend to be pragmatic
about my work, on the other, I find
myself pushing the bounda&s. Right
now we are at the optimum amount of
things that we can be doing. We're
maintaining and refining, but not
coasting. The work is a challenge,
and I'm not stuck in the "Englishteacher" ru t, although I do a little

on the risk of sounding vain.
I'm amazed at how good I think I
am! I'm finding out that knowing a
job. . knowing the information to
make a decision..
I've found the
courage to find out things about myself. Everything I've done in the past
three years has been risk-taking because I didn't have those years of ad-'
ministra tive experience to fall back
on. But . . . I carc about the people
in this office, their energy, and what

I'm not the kind of woman that
works full-time and then goes home
and works full-time . Rudy (Academic
Dean Rudy Martin) and I and my
older sons take turns doing the dishes,
cooking, cleaning, laundry. . it's an
arrangement built on trust. When we
first married I underwent a two-week,
super-domestic phase - it went away
fast.
Things were very different a few
years ago . I graduated from high
school (Electric City, Wash.) in 1957,
married my high school sweetheart,
and promptly had two children . . .
that's what you were supposed to do
in those days, Then there was a di vorce, and I went to college.
Why did YOll decide to go to college?
Survival. I made $220/mo. as a
secretary, of which $75Imo. went for
babysitting. It became apparent that I
soon wouldn't be able to support my
children or myself. My self-image
caught up with me
I felt a need
to rid myself of a lot of ignorance that
I felt in myself.
But even while holding a full class
load, I worked two jobs . . . I still
had to pay the sitter, rent, bills
during that time I began to think of
myself differently.
When I first started college I
thought about myself mainly in terms
of men, but 1 had this feeling that I'd
never get married again. More and
more I began to see myself as "woman.
single, head of hou sehold, raising children alone
"
for that I needed
college, and more education than high
school. I didn't care if the whole
world wanted to get married and live
in suburbia .. I wanted to go to college, and get a better job.
Who were YOllr friends at that time?
Otber divorcees, men and women
.. looking for mates. The bulk of my
soc ial life was spe nt outside the college. I was 23 when I s t arter! co llege

Not really. My acttVlsm had to do

How did you get to Evergreen?
I read an article in the Spok~sman

in a resume and write the required

and he got an interview .
He had two job offers then.

we'd both done so much bitching
about the quality of education that

I made my application to Evergreen

This was supposed to be done in the

After the interview, I found ou t that
I was excited about the future

Evergrl!l'n students have had a high
employment-a fter-graduation rate i1l
th e past. What does it look like for
this year?
I'm a little apprehensive this year.
Things are tough - there's not a lot
of hiring going on out there . On the
other han d, Evergreen students have
done well in the past two years.
which were tough. Somehow the way
that we do things here at Evergreen
makes peop le more assertative a
good asset in the job market.
How do you feef about your job ?
I just sort of fell into the job
it's congruent with my personality.
On one hand I tend to be pragmatic
about my work, on the other, I find
myself pushing the bounda&s. Right
now we are at the optimum amount of
things that we can be doing. We're
maintaining and refining, but not
coasting. The work is a challenge,
and I'm not stuck in the "Englishteacher" ru t, although I do a little
teaching in my job, , , but I also do
one-to-one advising . . . and administrative duties: coordinating the s ix
people connected with this office, training, duty delegation, budgetary work,

on the risk of sounding vain.
I'm amazed at how good I think I
am! I'm finding out that knowing a
job. . knowing the information to
make a decision..
I've found the
courage to find out things about myself. Everything I've done in the past
three years has been risk-taking because I didn't have those years of ad-'
ministra tive experience to fall back
on. But . . . I carc about the people
in this office, their energy, and what
we're trying to do,
. yourself as a woman?
I'm not the kind of woman that
works full-time and then goes home
and works full-time . Rudy (Academic
Dean Rudy Martin) and I and my
older sons take turns doing the dishes,
cooking, cleaning, laundry. . it's an
arrangement built on trust. When we
first married I underwent a two-week,
super-domestic phase - it went away
fast.
Things were very different a few
years ago . I graduated from high
school (Electric City, Wash.) in 1957,
married my high school sweetheart,
and promptly had two children . . .
that's what you were supposed to do
in those days, Then there was a di vorce, and I went to college.
Why did YOll decide to go to college?
Survival. I made $220/mo. as a
secretary, of which $75Imo. went for
babysitting. It became apparent that I
soon wouldn't be able to support my
children or myself. My self-image
caught up with me
I felt a need
to rid myself of a lot of ignorance that
I felt in myself.
But even while holding a full class
load, I worked two jobs . . . I still
had to pay the sitter, rent, bills
during that time I began to think of
myself differently.
When I first started college I
thought about myself mainly in terms
of men, but 1 had this feeling that I'd
never get married again. More and
more I began to see myself as "woman.
single, head of hou sehold, raising children alone
"
for that I needed
college, and more education than high
school. I didn't care if the whole
world wanted to get married and live
in suburbia .. I wanted to go to college, and get a better job.
Who were YOllr friends at that time?
Otber divorcees, men and women
.. looking for mates. The bulk of my
soc ial life was spe nt outside the college. I was 23 when I s t arter! co llege
an age sc hi sm more acute then
than now.

the height of the stlldent activism
years. Were you i,/volved with activism?
I came from a community with a
narrow and prescribed value system.
.. I came to college a nd got radicalized
. the divorce made me rea li ze
facts about making it in the system as
a conve ntional woman.
I was involved in Vietnam moratoriums, I demonstrated and marched
and had a share of rotten vegetables
thrown at me. I had become disenchanted with the system

his
assassination left us dumb. I think
that the assassination, then the war
showed both my chi ldren and my
acquaintances a glimmer of my politi.:s,
Were 1.0101 also involved in academic
activism?
Not really. My acttVlsm had to do
with war and racism not curriculum
centra lly . I was concerned about what
was happening in the world and
worked at sensitizing the university to
the issues of the war and race. I was,
howcver, privy to an alternative educationa l experience . .. something
that Charles McCann was a part of at
CWSC, a series of 4-day symposiums
that dealt with such subjects as man
working, man playing, man thinking.
They hosted famous guests. . Tim
Leary, Margaret Mead. The guests
gave talks that we seminared about
later, .. in depth .. and in , close
contact with the "experts". . we got
time-release from classes to participate
in the seminars . . . they were so utterly different from the classroom situati on . .. I became deeply involved .
What did ),011 plan to do after graduation?
Teach. I had mixed motives,
though .. . teaching was a positive
role for me . . . rpost of mv values
and good adult contact in my life had
been through teachers. The hori zo ns
in public schools had always seemed
so much bigger than those in mv
home. . also ten years of teaching
defer s payment of the N S DL (National Student Defense Loan) that I
had.
After graduation I did teach for
awhile.
11 th grade American Lit.
and composition in Po rt Angeles, and
college composition and literature .
How did you get to Evergreen?
I read an article in the Spok~sman
Revl'ewthat quoted President McCann
about Evergreen . . . Rudy was looking for a job . . . he decided to se nd
in a resume and write the required
essay .
and he got an interview .
He had two job offers then.
but
we'd both done so much bitching
about the quality of education that
not taking the s tep and not coming to
Evergreen wO\lld have been hypoc riti cal.
When I first came to Olympia, I became, like so many Evergreen
wives .
a sort of "camp follower" I
taught adult education in the Olympia
Eve nin g School..
composit ion
again.
I made my application to Evergreen
and was hired on a special EEA project. 1 worked in learning resources
the idea of what I was supposed to do
was to provide writing in struction.
This was supposed to be done in the
se minars. .. p.rogram s, etc. It was
for students as well as facultv who
had never had to critique a paper and
help someone with their writing . My
evaluation of the project was that it
wasn't very successful. However, basic
s kills is olle of the ongoing projects
and Eye/green philosophical issues.
basic skills and development.
And . . I became pregnant at thr
very beginning of the year. almost as
if I'd planned it. Paul was born Jull
17. After his birth I thought I'd SIal
home for a few mon ths and care for
him while redefining my own goals.
I had been teaching composition for
about SIX years and 1 knew that I
nceded a vacation from that. I had to
translate my training into qu~lifi('a
tions for another kind of joh . I went
thr ough all the questions
shou ld I
get another degree. . I never did resolve that one . . I decided that I'd
rather just go to work. What I wanted
was some sort o f partially administrative sort of job
. where I could usc
some of my organ izational qualities
and implement some id eas. . plan a
program of some kind.
There was a Placement Cou nselor
job open
it had been open for
awhile, hut I hadn't even thought of
apply in g, so rooted was I in the idea
that I was an "English teacher." So I
go t my papers together into a portfolio and got ready for a formal int erview.
After the interview, I found ou t that
I was excited about the future
whether or not I got the job. . I had
gotten stimulated and reinforced
about what I wanted to do.
Then I was offered the job
I
took it. . . and I got scared. The
placement record of Evergreen grads
is very important . . . I felt that the
importance of that would rest on my
shoulders. I feel that less now ..
what really cou nts is what happens to
a student prior to graduation.
Have YOII encountered any special
problems becauH! your husband ' and
yourself hold administrative positiolls
within the college?
Months w ill go by when I don ' t
even see Rudy at work . I think we
had lunch together all of twice last
year. We maintain very separate campus roles - but we're very separate

we maintain very distinct and active
philosophical differences. You can't
co ntinue your marriage while you're
at work to any great extent.
When people do discover we're
married, it generally startles them because we do have so little to do with
one another on camp us . Also occas ionally people will be hesitant about
cri ti cizi ng something that Rudy may
be doing for fear I may relay the information, and vice versa... nonse nse " as I mentioned before , we

when we go home, we don't have to

The Learning Services Center is offering a
weekly contest beginning next week for the
s tudents and staff at The Evergreen State
College which will offer prizes for the winners.
The prizes will be provided by the various
merchants in the community . Each week a list
of 10 books will be se lected from the shelves in
the bookstore. These books will for m the
"Suprise Bibliography List" of the week. The list
of books will be listed in this section of th e
Cooper Point Journal. From this bibliography 3
passages will be chosen, and a Cloze Exercise
will be designed for each book - that is to say
every 5th word of the passage will be deleted.
Co nt es tant s must co rrectly identify the
missing words from each passage, and the book
from which it came, in order to be a winner.
Should there be more than one winner per
contest, a drawing wi ll be made from those
na mes of persons who correctly iden tified the
miss ing wo rd s and the books .

pound , The most popular size ranges from five to six
pounds. Two types of pumpkil)s are found on the
farm ; sugar pumpkins and jack -o- Iantern pumpkins.
In recent years, th e discriminating buyer has realized
th e bargain va lue of the sugar pumpkin.
"For three or four dollars, a person has enough
pumpkin to make pies to last all winter. " Mr. Ward
added, " Besides, the can ned pumpkin you buy in
stores is actually squash. "
JACK-a-LANTERNS :
THE LEGEND OF IRISH JACK
There is an old Irish tale of a stingy drunkard
named Jack. Jack played tricks on the Devil and made
the Devil prom ise never to claim Jack's soul.
When Jack died, he went to the gates of Heaven but
was turned away because he had lived the life of a
tight -fisted mean old drunkard.
Jack went to the DeviI's abode but was turned away
from Hell because the Devil had promised to never
by John Dodge
In a custom that precedes our Halloween pumpkin,
Irish children carved grinning and leering faces out of
the centers of large rutabagas, turnips, and potatoes.
The rutabaga , not the pumpkin, served to light the
village gatherings on "All Hallows -Eve ."
Halloween , the night before All Saints Day, reached
prominence in the United States during the 1840's
when thousa nds of Iri sh moved to America because of
the potato famin e. The New World pumpkin replaced
the Old World vegetables as the preferred jack -o - Ian tern . Americans have been ca rving pumpkins ever
sin ce, . .
PUMPKIN STAND
For th e past ten years, the Ward Family Corporati o n, farmers in the fertil e Chambers Prairie east of
Lacey , have grown pumpkins and operated a pumpkin stand . Surrounded by 300 acres of corn, strawberries, and Christmas trees, the five acres of pumpkins aren't a profit -making prooosition , but there are
rewards just the same. "Children from daycare centers
and elementary schools come out to the tarm and pick
a pumpkin right out of the patch," said Mr. Ward.
" It's a good learning experience . for the kids ."
The Ward's pumpkin business is unique to Thurston
County, It began as a money -making project for the
Ward children, with 20 acres of land seeded with
pumpkins. As the kids grew older, they lost interest in
the project. " But the community interest was there, so
we kept growing pumpkins, " said Mr. Ward. The
Ward family sells their pumpkins for six cents a
YARROW TOMORROW
by David A. Jon es
If you think Dr. Lynn Struve would
spend a n afternoon with her Chinese
contract students out behind the library
pick ing weeds , you 're right. She wo uld .
Has she, you ask , somehow fitted the
Euell Gibbons schoo l of thought into the
great stream of Chinese philosophy? No ,
nor is she demonstrating how the peasan ts
practiced ecology in primeavil rJ ~e
paddies
Actually Lynn and company were
gathering the milfoil (common yarrow )
for use in consulting the oracle of th e I
Ching , the ancient Chinese Book of
Changes. The I Ching is a book of
devination, and one of the "six classics of
Confucious. " To approach the oracle for
advice, one is required to manipulate the
yarrow stalks in a prescribed manner. If
thi~ is done with necessary ~I..... ity and
seriousness, the Book of Changes will
yield the wisdom of thousands of years of
Chinese thought. ,
If you're interested in using the I ~Jrirrg.
and need ya rrow sta lk s, they grow
profusely in th e Evergreen environment.
They ha ve already gone to seed and died ,
making this a good time to harvest the
dried stalks. The plant is typically from 3
to 5 ft. tall, with a spreading cluster of
white fl owers (now fluffy "bl owaways")
at the top. I would suggest rIOt di sturbing
the environment of the nature tra il area.
It ca n be found easily along Driftwood
road, G iven the right day and th e right
frame of mind , gathering the ya rrow can
be as soo thin g to the sould as the oracl e',
advice .
GEODUCKS TIE
take him in, "But where can I go?" asked Jack . "Back
where you came from," replied the Devil.
The way back was dark and windy and as Jack left,
the Devil tossed him a hot coal from the fire of Hell.
Jack had been eating a turnip , He put the coal inside
the turnip and began his endless search for a resting
place, using his jack-o-Iantern to light his way .
And that, so the story goes, is the origin of the
carved-out pumpkins that glow "the eve of all the
holy ones."
Th e Evergreen men's soccer team tied
the first-place Continental Steelers of Sea ttle, 1 - 1. in a match played in Seattle
last Sunday. Dick Jones scored the Geoduck goal.
The tie left Evergreen with a 3 - 3 - 1
record in Washington State Soccer League,
Division 2 play . They are three points (a
team gets two points for a win, one for a
tie) behind the Steelers. Evergreen 's next
five games are on the road and they will
play this Sunday in Seattle against Alki
Lumber.

we maintain very distinct and active
philosophical differences. You can't
co ntinue your marriage while you're
at work to any great extent.
When people do discover we're

one another on camp us . Also occas ionally people will be hesitant about

The Learning Services Center is offering a
weekly contest beginning next week for the

The prizes will be provided by the various

of 10 books will be se lected from the shelves in
the bookstore. These books will for m the
"Suprise Bibliography List" of the week. The list
of books will be listed in this section of th e

passages will be chosen, and a Cloze Exercise
will be designed for each book - that is to say
every 5th word of the passage will be deleted.
Co nt es tant s must co rrectly identify the
missing words from each passage, and the book
from which it came, in order to be a winner.
Should there be more than one winner per

PUMPKIN STAND
For th e past ten years, the Ward Family Corporati o n, farmers in the fertil e Chambers Prairie east of
Lacey , have grown pumpkins and operated a pumpkin stand . Surrounded by 300 acres of corn, strawberries, and Christmas trees, the five acres of pumpkins aren't a profit -making prooosition , but there are
rewards just the same. "Children from daycare centers
and elementary schools come out to the tarm and pick
a pumpkin right out of the patch," said Mr. Ward.
" It's a good learning experience . for the kids ."
The Ward's pumpkin business is unique to Thurston
County, It began as a money -making project for the
Ward children, with 20 acres of land seeded with
pumpkins. As the kids grew older, they lost interest in
the project. " But the community interest was there, so
we kept growing pumpkins, " said Mr. Ward. The

Actually Lynn and company were
gathering the milfoil (common yarrow )
for use in consulting the oracle of th e I
Ching , the ancient Chinese Book of
Changes. The I Ching is a book of
devination, and one of the "six classics of
Confucious. " To approach the oracle for
advice, one is required to manipulate the
yarrow stalks in a prescribed manner. If
thi~ is done with necessary ~I..... ity and
seriousness, the Book of Changes will
yield the wisdom of thousands of years of
Chinese thought. ,
If you're interested in using the I ~Jrirrg.
and need ya rrow sta lk s, they grow
profusely in th e Evergreen environment.
They ha ve already gone to seed and died ,
making this a good time to harvest the
dried stalks. The plant is typically from 3
to 5 ft. tall, with a spreading cluster of
white fl owers (now fluffy "bl owaways")
at the top. I would suggest rIOt di sturbing
the environment of the nature tra il area.
It ca n be found easily along Driftwood
road, G iven the right day and th e right
frame of mind , gathering the ya rrow can
be as soo thin g to the sould as the oracl e',

GEODUCKS TIE
take him in, "But where can I go?" asked Jack . "Back
where you came from," replied the Devil.
The way back was dark and windy and as Jack left,
the Devil tossed him a hot coal from the fire of Hell.
Jack had been eating a turnip , He put the coal inside
the turnip and began his endless search for a resting
place, using his jack-o-Iantern to light his way .
And that, so the story goes, is the origin of the
carved-out pumpkins that glow "the eve of all the
holy ones."
Th e Evergreen men's soccer team tied
the first-place Continental Steelers of Sea ttle, 1 - 1. in a match played in Seattle
last Sunday. Dick Jones scored the Geoduck goal.
The tie left Evergreen with a 3 - 3 - 1
record in Washington State Soccer League,
Division 2 play . They are three points (a
team gets two points for a win, one for a
tie) behind the Steelers. Evergreen 's next
five games are on the road and they will
play this Sunday in Seattle against Alki

sian Gu lf. the worki's mos t st rategic wa terway.
Briti sh m:wspapers are now runn ing ads
for ex -Brit ish mil itary pi lots to serve
three -YE'a r stint s in the Omani air force,
with generous tax- free start ing pay and
side benefits. But mercenaries a re on ly the
lip of th e iceberg.
For ]] years, rebel tribesmen in Dhofar
province - organized under the leftist
Popu lar Front for the liberation of Oman
(PFLOAG) - have been battling the stolId ly pro- Western Omani government for
independence, Theirs is now the only revolutl,onary war directly involving major
o utSide powers anywhere in the world,
As the annual June-September monsoon
seaso n ends, fight ing has escalated in
western Dhofar, near the border of radical
social ist South Yemen , The guerrillas now
reportedly pos sess hand-carried SAM
ground-to-a ir missiles, and both Popular
Fron t and government sources predict
major clashes in the next few weeks,
Dhofar offers an ideal setting for counter- insurgency operations, The area is relatively sma ll (l0,000 square miles); its
popu la tion , under 200,000, lives like the
rest of Oma n in 14th century conditions .
Guerril la supp ly lines to South Yemen run
through mounta ins less than 20 miles
wide . Compa red to Algeria , Vie tnam, or
Malaya, the fighting is simple.
Yet the rebels have survived - and
grown, though since 1973 they have faced
government forces beefed up by several
thousand Iran ian soldiers and Iranian helicopter gunships, and coordinated by BritIsh mil itary advisors.
BRITISH STAMP
The Sultan's war today in fact bears an
ummi stakab le British stamp .
OffiCia lly the British admit to on ly 600
military personnel in Oma n, but there are
a~tually over 2,000 - includin g combat
off icers and pi lots, training operatives and
co mmun ica tions experts a t the two RAF
bases of Sola la (in Dhofar) and Masirah.
Th e elite branch is the 200-man Special
A ir Services (SAS l. a counte r-insurgency
un it used in behind-the-l ines missions and
for training local forces.
In Oman, over 1,000 Dhofaris have
been orga nized in tribal squads for co un ler-guerrilla actions. They are now particularly strong in eastern Dhofar, where,
according to British reports, anarchy prevai ls as armed tribal groups monopo lize
power an d operate protection rackets
around desert wells. Thus, while the Pop ular Front has tried to eliminate tribal differences, the British have actively revived
them.
Two other British tactics - first used in
the Boer Wars but updated in the Malayan Emergency in the 1950's - are referred
to as food control and popu lation control.
The terms mear starvation and forced resettlement .
While airforce, navy and artillery detachments systematically b()mbard guerrilla-he ld areas , destroying a n imals,
crops, we lts and mounta in paths, British
construction workers have completed nine
resettlement cente rs as part of this food
and population cO!1trol project. Dhofar's
mountain popu lat;un - where guerrilla
strength is gre<:te5t - faces two alterna t ives: death from shelli ng or starvation,
or resettlement in government-contro lled
centers. Severa l thousand in recent
mont hs have fled to neighboring South
Yemen, but most have been relocated in
the nine cen ters, and others newly built
around Dhofar's capital Solala . The centers are guarded by barbed wire fences
and check poin ts, which not only keep
the inhabitan ts under con tro l but prevent
them from taking food out to the
guerri llas.
Air power is the government's key
weapon against the rebels. Besides terrorizing and attacking the liberated areas, it
is used for intell igence gathering and to
in crease mobil ity of government forces .
There is no sign that the British or Iran ians are plann ing to cease their intervention. T he Iranians, who wan t to be the
arbiters of polit ics in the Pers ian G ul f,
claim the Bri tish do not want the war to
end because of the excellent mili tary training offered by the Dhofar war. The Brit ish accuse thE' Iranians of rely ing too
m uch on American Vietnam-style tactics,
of using too muc h firepower and not
enough ground figh ting.
Meanwh ile t he Sultan, offering pilots
lucrat ive , three-year con tracts, leaves no
doubt he envisages a long term wa r, even
with foreign assistance.
PSILOCYBIN SEASON
by Jerry Banooch
This tim e of year is mushroom season
and many Evergreeners are into mush rooms, Many are taking M ike Beug's class
on identification, However, Beug isn't telling us (and might not even know) about
the Psilocybin mus hrooms that grow in
this area. I don' t rea ll y blame him, if I
to ld everyone that 1 knew what to look
for , I wo ul d certai nly go crazy from peop le co ming up to me with a handful of
mush rooms wondering if they were ha ll u cinoge nic.
It is unfortunate, but even erllightened
freaks are careless a nd clumsy when it
comes to "houbies." I have seen large
pa t ches of psi locybes and pa naeo lus
wiped o ut after the word go t out that
they were growing in a certain area , I
o nce made the m istake of telling Leonard
Enos (au thor of The Key to the American
Psilocybin Mushroom ) that I had loca ted
Psilocybe Semil a nceata growing in pastures near a sout hern Oregon coastal
town , He printed the fac t in his book and
the next fall, people were coming from as
far away as California in search of the
mushroom. In the two years that fo llowed
the number of tha t sp ecies had dwindled

to mere handfuls where there had once
been an abundance. Farmers became outraged with people trespassing in their
fields and notified the police. I could relate many such tales of carelessness and
thoug htlessness.
Look, when you find some houb ies,
even if it appears to be a b ig patch of
them, don't tell anyon e! Take w hat you
need, leaVing some to spore the area, then
spli t . W hy tell the world of your great
discovery? If you do, the houbies will
vanish in the onslaught of over-eager hippies try ing to sat isfy some psychedelic
craving,
In Mexico, Indians rare ly turned on
o utsiders to their sacramen ts. For many
hund reds of years mushrooms were ea ten
as part of their spi ritual practices, As
soon as the inse nsitive white man discovered what they were doing, their whole
trip was ruined. Ever since Gordon Wass.on publiCized the practice in his book :
Mushrooms , Russia and History (Pantheon Books, N.Y., 1957), the area has
become a tourist a ttraction for houbie
hun ters. Ch ildren sell quantities on the

mushroom, and even the brujo's face ap-

pears on the postcards:
Many people don't realize that houbies
grow everywhere. You don't have to go
to Mexico to find them. In this area they
fruit on lawns, in the forest, in pastures
and in gardens . I have observed four species growing right here on the Evergreen
campus.
Houbies are not very conspicuous,
They aren't brilliantly co lored, and they
don't always stain blue as rumored. There
aren't any special outward identifying
characteristics (that is, nothing any more
than other mushrooms) , Several species
inhabit various niches in the local environment, righ t alongside of non-psychoactive and even poisonous mushrooms.
Psi locybe Semi la nceata , common ly
known as "Liberty Caps" (having to do
with something about the French flag). is
found in pastures.
Psil ocybe Pelliculosa inhabits the woods
and wayside .
An as yet unnamed Psilocybe (having a
light -blue veil and fai rly persistent ring)
grows in lawns and pastures.
Psilocybe Cyanescens (named after its
obvious bluing reaction) is found in the
woods and in flower beds having a bark
mulch.
Psilocybe Baeocystis fruits in lawns and
in the woods. It has a "cousin" that grows
at higher elevations (Psilocybe Strictipes) .
Finding houbies is not undertaken in
the same way as finding Easter eggs, They
aren't "day-glo" and they certainly aren't
large and grotesq ue as so many other
mushrooms are. One needs to look for
them with the consciousness of the habitat
in which they grow, Unless someone is
simply pointing them out to you, you
need to think small , look at all the my cenas and conocybes.
Look for a mushroom with a pellicle. A
pellicle is a thin separable jelly-like film
that covers the cap. It is direc tly covering
the tissue of the cap and can be removed
q ui te easily by pinching the edge and pulling up on the tiss ue, Stropharias also
have a pellicle but are very sli my (also the
gi ll attac hment is differen t than psilocybes). Amanitas have a sim ilar film cover ing, however, the differences are obvious.
Mos t Psi locyb in mushrooms, some
more or less, display a bluing phenomenon . When handled , they often stain a
bluish or blu ish-green. The stem seems to

YOU DESER·V E A BREAK TODAY, HONG KONG
by Richa rd Borsuk
HONG KONG, OCTOBER 23 (PNS) - .
T he ex pression "as American as apple pie may
soon become "as Chinese as apple pie," thanks to McDonald's hamburgers' latest foray into globa l franch ising.
Ignoring warnings that its food would not agree
with Chinese palates, the hamburger empire has now
es tab lished a foo tho ld in this British colony where 98
percent of the 4.3 million residents are Chinese.
Th e first store was opened this January - complete
with a C hinese Ronnie McDona ld promoting Big
Macs, French fries an d tea - and two more will open
by the end of this year. It is expec ted there will eventually be a bout 20 here.
Each month, the store has sol d more app le pies
(about 10,000) th an any o ther of th e chain's 3,300
sto res across the world. Hamburger sa les are totaling
about 7,000 a day.
"We're doing better business over-a ll than 90 percent of the McDonald's in America," said managing
director Daniel Ng , whom friends now call the "Ha mburger King of Hong Kong. "
Ng takes particular pride that McDona ld's is
proving successful here while other American fastfood imp o rt s have failed , The latest and largest flop
was Ke ntucky Fried Chicken, which last year had to
close down the 11 stores it had opened in 1973.
Food industry experts have suggested various theories o n why Kentucky Fried failed while McDonald's
is making it big. One is poor management, including
the precipi tous ll-store leap into the market.
Another is that Colonel Sanders didn't understand
local customs. According to this theory, the slogan
"finger-lickin' good" was a hindrance when translated
into Chinese, because the Chinese don't lick their
fingers during or after eating:
A third theory is that something in the batter was
foreign and didn',t go down well with local stomachs.
GREASE ANO ALL
But it seems that all McDonald's products are going
down well. The taste is identical to McDonald's in
America, as is the preparation - right down to the
amount of grease in the French fries.
The menu is identical , too, except for the addition
of tea as a concession to Chinese eating habits. Each
item has been given an equivalent Chinese name . McDonald's itself tomes out as "Mak Don Now" in
C hinese, loosely (and promotionally) translated as "to
make at your service ."
All the food is imported from the U .S. except the
buns, but they also taste the same since they are made
locally to McDonald's strict specifica tions.
Items are priced quite comparably to those in A-
",
merica : the equ ivalent of 32 cents for a regular hamburger, and 70 cents for a Big Mac.
The high rate of apple pie sales can probably be
a ttributed to novelty . In America, Ng says, pie sales
aren't so high because everyone's mom makes better
ones a t home. "C hinese mothers don't know how to
make apple pie, least not yet," he noted .
Hong Kong people don't know how to make hamburgers either, though they've been trying for a number of yea rs.
That's wha t makes McDonald's hamburgers seem so
good here. The others, one English-language news paper wrote in praising the arrival of the golden
arches, are a "stringy, rubbery ball of hash capped by
a slab of bullet-hard bun that restaurants have the
audacity to call a hamburger ,"
The official campaign to introduce the McDonald's
name - practically unknown to everyone except the
7,OOO-member American community - soon ended
when the public relations firm handling the account
was dropped as unnecessary, Hong Kong is a city
where word of mouth travels faster than the speed of
light.
The little advertising that was done before Ng
dropped his PR firm was directed at teenagers and
children , not at the general public.
About one-half of Hong Kong's popu lation is 21
years of age ·or younger, and McDona ld's long-range
success hinges on this group. "We ignore the older
Chinese population as we can't expect them to eat
this," Ng says. The strategy has so far proved sou nd .
Large numbe rs of young people have flocked to the
stores.
Ng, who is a 50-50 partner in the $l-million venture with McDonald's Corp., says he will continue to
expand at a s ~ow pace . But he seems increasingly con fident McDonald's will become a fixture in Hong
Kong.
" Up until now, we've been so successful and busy
here that we've had no time to consolidate and expand our basic operation," he said. " Now we're get ting ready to move on ."
Hong Kong was the third Asian location for Mc Donald's, the first two being Tokyo (now with 60
stores) and Guam (where what is advertised as the
world's largest McDonald's participated in the Ameri ca n "Operation New Life" for Vietnamese refugees by
donating tens of thousands of hamburgers),
Holder of a master's degree in engineering from the
University of Chicago, Ng once ·admitted that he
never a te a single McDonald's hamburger during the
seven years he lived in America.

to mere handfuls where there had once
been an abundance. Farmers became outraged with people trespassing in their
fields and notified the police. I could relate many such tales of carelessness and
thoug htlessness.
Look, when you find some houb ies,
even if it appears to be a b ig patch of
them, don't tell anyon e! Take w hat you
need, leaVing some to spore the area, then

discovery? If you do, the houbies will
vanish in the onslaught of over-eager hippies try ing to sat isfy some psychedelic
craving,
In Mexico, Indians rare ly turned on
o utsiders to their sacramen ts. For many
hund reds of years mushrooms were ea ten
as part of their spi ritual practices, As
soon as the inse nsitive white man discovered what they were doing, their whole
trip was ruined. Ever since Gordon Wass.on publiCized the practice in his book :
Mushrooms , Russia and History (Pantheon Books, N.Y., 1957), the area has
become a tourist a ttraction for houbie

Many people don't realize that houbies
grow everywhere. You don't have to go
to Mexico to find them. In this area they
fruit on lawns, in the forest, in pastures
and in gardens . I have observed four species growing right here on the Evergreen
campus.
Houbies are not very conspicuous,
They aren't brilliantly co lored, and they
don't always stain blue as rumored. There
aren't any special outward identifying
characteristics (that is, nothing any more
than other mushrooms) , Several species
inhabit various niches in the local environment, righ t alongside of non-psychoactive and even poisonous mushrooms.
Psi locybe Semi la nceata , common ly
known as "Liberty Caps" (having to do
with something about the French flag). is
found in pastures.
Psil ocybe Pelliculosa inhabits the woods
and wayside .
An as yet unnamed Psilocybe (having a
light -blue veil and fai rly persistent ring)
grows in lawns and pastures.
Psilocybe Cyanescens (named after its
obvious bluing reaction) is found in the
woods and in flower beds having a bark
mulch.
Psilocybe Baeocystis fruits in lawns and
in the woods. It has a "cousin" that grows
at higher elevations (Psilocybe Strictipes) .
Finding houbies is not undertaken in
the same way as finding Easter eggs, They
aren't "day-glo" and they certainly aren't
large and grotesq ue as so many other
mushrooms are. One needs to look for
them with the consciousness of the habitat
in which they grow, Unless someone is
simply pointing them out to you, you
need to think small , look at all the my cenas and conocybes.
Look for a mushroom with a pellicle. A
pellicle is a thin separable jelly-like film
that covers the cap. It is direc tly covering
the tissue of the cap and can be removed
q ui te easily by pinching the edge and pulling up on the tiss ue, Stropharias also
have a pellicle but are very sli my (also the
gi ll attac hment is differen t than psilocybes). Amanitas have a sim ilar film cover ing, however, the differences are obvious.
Mos t Psi locyb in mushrooms, some
more or less, display a bluing phenomenon . When handled , they often stain a
bluish or blu ish-green. The stem seems to

YOU DESER·V E A BREAK TODAY, HONG KONG
by Richa rd Borsuk
HONG KONG, OCTOBER 23 (PNS) - .
T he ex pression "as American as apple pie may
soon become "as Chinese as apple pie," thanks to McDonald's hamburgers' latest foray into globa l franch ising.
Ignoring warnings that its food would not agree
with Chinese palates, the hamburger empire has now
es tab lished a foo tho ld in this British colony where 98
percent of the 4.3 million residents are Chinese.
Th e first store was opened this January - complete
with a C hinese Ronnie McDona ld promoting Big
Macs, French fries an d tea - and two more will open
by the end of this year. It is expec ted there will eventually be a bout 20 here.
Each month, the store has sol d more app le pies
(about 10,000) th an any o ther of th e chain's 3,300
sto res across the world. Hamburger sa les are totaling
about 7,000 a day.
"We're doing better business over-a ll than 90 percent of the McDonald's in America," said managing
director Daniel Ng , whom friends now call the "Ha mburger King of Hong Kong. "
Ng takes particular pride that McDona ld's is
proving successful here while other American fastfood imp o rt s have failed , The latest and largest flop
was Ke ntucky Fried Chicken, which last year had to
close down the 11 stores it had opened in 1973.
Food industry experts have suggested various theories o n why Kentucky Fried failed while McDonald's
is making it big. One is poor management, including
the precipi tous ll-store leap into the market.
Another is that Colonel Sanders didn't understand
local customs. According to this theory, the slogan
"finger-lickin' good" was a hindrance when translated
into Chinese, because the Chinese don't lick their
fingers during or after eating:
A third theory is that something in the batter was
foreign and didn',t go down well with local stomachs.
GREASE ANO ALL
But it seems that all McDonald's products are going
down well. The taste is identical to McDonald's in
America, as is the preparation - right down to the
amount of grease in the French fries.
The menu is identical , too, except for the addition
of tea as a concession to Chinese eating habits. Each
item has been given an equivalent Chinese name . McDonald's itself tomes out as "Mak Don Now" in
C hinese, loosely (and promotionally) translated as "to
make at your service ."
All the food is imported from the U .S. except the
buns, but they also taste the same since they are made
locally to McDonald's strict specifica tions.
Items are priced quite comparably to those in A-
",
merica : the equ ivalent of 32 cents for a regular hamburger, and 70 cents for a Big Mac.
The high rate of apple pie sales can probably be
a ttributed to novelty . In America, Ng says, pie sales
aren't so high because everyone's mom makes better
ones a t home. "C hinese mothers don't know how to
make apple pie, least not yet," he noted .
Hong Kong people don't know how to make hamburgers either, though they've been trying for a number of yea rs.
That's wha t makes McDonald's hamburgers seem so
good here. The others, one English-language news paper wrote in praising the arrival of the golden
arches, are a "stringy, rubbery ball of hash capped by
a slab of bullet-hard bun that restaurants have the
audacity to call a hamburger ,"
The official campaign to introduce the McDonald's
name - practically unknown to everyone except the
7,OOO-member American community - soon ended
when the public relations firm handling the account
was dropped as unnecessary, Hong Kong is a city
where word of mouth travels faster than the speed of
light.
The little advertising that was done before Ng
dropped his PR firm was directed at teenagers and
children , not at the general public.
About one-half of Hong Kong's popu lation is 21
years of age ·or younger, and McDona ld's long-range
success hinges on this group. "We ignore the older
Chinese population as we can't expect them to eat
this," Ng says. The strategy has so far proved sou nd .
Large numbe rs of young people have flocked to the
stores.
Ng, who is a 50-50 partner in the $l-million venture with McDonald's Corp., says he will continue to
expand at a s ~ow pace . But he seems increasingly con fident McDonald's will become a fixture in Hong
Kong.
" Up until now, we've been so successful and busy
here that we've had no time to consolidate and expand our basic operation," he said. " Now we're get ting ready to move on ."
Hong Kong was the third Asian location for Mc Donald's, the first two being Tokyo (now with 60
stores) and Guam (where what is advertised as the
world's largest McDonald's participated in the Ameri ca n "Operation New Life" for Vietnamese refugees by
donating tens of thousands of hamburgers),
Holder of a master's degree in engineering from the
University of Chicago, Ng once ·admitted that he
never a te a single McDonald's hamburger during the
seven years he lived in America.

"T he person has to either enjoy doing
iI , or be into the ideology of it , or be interes ted in getting some sort of experience
in bookkeepi ng _"
Tht' bookkeeper's greatest fear, and
Ih us the co-op's, is bouncing a check,
which makes deali ng with w holesalers diftieu lt.
"The rela ti o nship between wholesalers
dnd the co-ops is sometimes shaky, due
either to some past experience, or d ifferences in ideology, We aren't your conventioll al buyer. Beca use of the way the

and t he three percent our co-op charges

fam ili es that maintain large positive balances, which means they p ut in substantiall y more money than what their food

co-op's ba lance_
"The main th ing is to realize that ttle
idea of a co-op isn' t gett ing something for
free, All the co-op does is set up an or ganization which does the work of the
midd le m a n , and that that work needs
doing is the most impor tant point. People
wi ll sa ve, but in return they' re going to
have to do work, work that other people
charge money to do,"
Obv iously, buying from retai l stores is
often sim ple r than becoming involved in a
co-op, and many co - ops find their troubles increase as the co-op grows a nd
things beco me more complicated, but as it
is now, co - ops seem to be the best way to
operate withi n the cap italist structure
where the hands of a few control the distribution of food, wh ile being relatively

INTERNATIONAL ANIMATION FILM FESTIVAL
by Rick Speer
I had t he good fort une to be
able to at tend the 3rd Int ernationa l Ani I11 3tion Film Festival. held in New York
City. Alt hough m any festivals have an
an im a ti o n ca tegory, thHe are only three
;n Ih e world that show th ese films exclu " l't :\ ' , and th e New York one is the on ly
<'Ill' he re in the ,states , Predictably then,
: ~, l F('stival was chock - full of many,
!1ldl1\' di ffere nt kinds of animated films,
cd I c0 mpctin g for prizes a nd recogn iti on
Iro m an aud ience that included fi lm dis: f ibutors, jury members, and p lain o ld a n IIna tion freaks,
The Festival ran for four days, with
I tim, showing continuo usly nine hours a
day, somet im es in several theatres , The
afternoons and early eveni ngs generally
co ntained film s in competit ion , while the
late r evenings were devoted to retrospec tives. The films in competition were arranged in different categories - children's,
ex perimental , commercial, etc. Wh il e
there were no cas h prizes, a tremendous
number of films were entered nonetheless,
appa rent ly because the New York event is
t he best place to have your work shown
aga in st others of simil ar qu a lity , For
wha tever reason, over 200 films were
sh own , ex hausting everybody and draining eve ry nea rby coffeepot.
THE NAVEL OF A G[ANT
Th e film s in co mpetition ranged from
fairly so phisticated student film s to very
sop histi ca ted profess ional works, The best
st udent piece wa s ca lled Mirror People ,
b y Kathy Rose o f CalArts , [t was a spoof
o f I he classic cops and robbers chase
sce ne, on ly do ne in an ext remely fluid
,t y lc. T he cars of both parties so rt of
p"ureJ ra th er than roll ed ove r the land,capc, and both sides' guns fired bullets of
wil y- like materia l th a t ·sp lat ted on impact.
flJllway thro ugh th e chase, the camera
pulled bac k 10 revea l th a t they were driv II1g art 'un d the stomac h of a gia nt , and
, h,. rtly thereaf ter they dived down its
n<lveI. The rest o f the giant soon fol lo wed
" nc! Ih,' 'Cfcc n was left b lank,
r~ec ently
The best profeSS iona l piece in competition wou ld be hard to pick, there were so
many excellent ones_ Some of my favorites were ; the title section (7 minutes)
of The Return of th e Pink Panther, animated by th e Richard Williams Studio in
London; Exponents by Charles Eames,
the well -known deSigner; Coney, Frank
Morris' latest work (after Frankfilm) ; and
finally, Where the Wi ld Things Are, a
film from the book illustrations (of the
sa me title) by Maurice SeTldak , The best
co mpute r -a nima ted film by far was Peter
Foldes' HUllger, which wa s nominated for
an Academy Award earlier this year, [t
was ve ry we ll received at this event al so,
IN RETROSPECT
A lth ough a fair amo unt of effort went
in to a rrang ing a nd publicizing the films in
wm petiti on, they weren't the best at te nd ed, The thing the c rowds rea lly
IlI rned out for were the " Retrospectives,"
show ing histories of t he work o f Chuck
jones, Walte.r Lantz, 1ex Avery, Winsor
McCay; and of course, Disney _ Between
these five studios alone, most of the
famous animated characters in film
history were accou nt ed for, including
Woody Woodpecker, The Roadrunner
(and Wily Coyote), Mickey, Minnie ,
Pluto, and Donald, Daffy Duck, Chilly
Willy, Bugs Bunny, and Porky P ig, To
see these cartoon characters develop from
their earl iest inceptions was a rare treat
a nd was like reliving the childhoods of
the last , th ree generat ions , Highlights included - Gertie the Dinosaur (1914), the
classic McCay film; Steamboat Willie
(1928), starring Mickey Mouse in the first
ca rt oon with a sy nchronized soundtrack;
Bad 1.uck Blackie (1949), by Tex Av~ry,
the originator of the (well-deserved) title
"Loo ny Tune;" severa l "Silly Symphon ies"
(1929 - 32), the early almost-unbel ievably
beautiful Disney shorts; and the classic
Barber of SeVJlle (1944), which features
an incredibly wi ld and za n y Woody
Woodpecker as a semi-sadistic barber.
There was one final feature of the even t
that made it different from the routine of
a reg ul ar fes tival. Sensing somet hing on
the horizon perhaps, the Festival hosted
an International Conference on Computer
Anim at ion, wh ich covered four mornings_
Th is sub-event featured speakers from the
U .S" Canada, and Europe, covering the
latest techniques in this field, The news is
very promising - computer programs are
getting more sophisticated, video technology keeps maturing a nd approaching film
resolution, and the two mediums become
more intertwined by the day, Several
computer-video outfits are already succeeding co,; nmercially, and standard studios -are beginning to test the waters. One
of the jury members who had been with
Disney Studios si nce th e '30's, assured me
that th ey definitel y were interested in the
technology and were exploring its possibilities for cha ract er animation, The film
professional s showed the same degree of
int ense interest, much of that centering
a round the lin e between human and
m achin e crea tivit y,
This quest;on of man vs, machine, perhaps o ne of the most importa nt for animators in this era, was best a nswered by
a speaker from England. As he put it:
"Animation has always been severely handicapped by the amo unt
of mechanical labor invo lved, It
wo uld be difficult to estimate how
many films have been abando ned
at the ideas stage simp ly because of
the la bor and cost; it's also difficult
to imagine what the animation in dustry wou ld be like if everyone in
it was directing their own films , instead of working on someone else's_
T his indicates something of the untapped potential that exists for animati o n ; if computer animation can
re lease this potential it seems quite
likely it would have a revolutionary impact on th e whole area of
visua l comm unications, "

(,t work, Even t hough the amoun t of

created, and the risk of error, as well as
the gap in commun ication makes the idea
0f o nl y one bookkeeper the most favorable to him,
"T he person has to either enjoy doing
iI , or be into the ideology of it , or be interes ted in getting some sort of experience
in bookkeepi ng _"
Tht' bookkeeper's greatest fear, and
Ih us the co-op's, is bouncing a check,
which makes deali ng with w holesalers diftieu lt.
"The rela ti o nship between wholesalers
dnd the co-ops is sometimes shaky, due
either to some past experience, or d ifferences in ideology, We aren't your conventioll al buyer. Beca use of the way the
work load is divided, sometimes we are
more di sorga nized, They look at co-ops
as tra nsient organizat ion s where if they
wro te a check, and it bounced, the co-op
co uld disappear the next day,
'There' s a iot of trust. When ma jor orders go in , somet imes I look over what
peop le have orde red and check to see if
they have eno ugh m o ney to cover it. O u r
co-op has built up a balance of $200
tha t's made up solely of en trance fees,
and t he three percent our co-op charges
as an overhead, There are a lso severa l
fam ili es that maintain large positive balances, which means they p ut in substantiall y more money than what their food
b ill comes out to , This all helps build the
co-op's ba lance_
"The main th ing is to realize that ttle
idea of a co-op isn' t gett ing something for
free, All the co-op does is set up an or ganization which does the work of the
midd le m a n , and that that work needs
doing is the most impor tant point. People
wi ll sa ve, but in return they' re going to
have to do work, work that other people
charge money to do,"
Obv iously, buying from retai l stores is
often sim ple r than becoming involved in a
co-op, and many co - ops find their troubles increase as the co-op grows a nd
things beco me more complicated, but as it
is now, co - ops seem to be the best way to
operate withi n the cap italist structure
where the hands of a few control the distribution of food, wh ile being relatively
liberat ed from the established idea of buying and selling food.

INTERNATIONAL ANIMATION FILM FESTIVAL
by Rick Speer
I had t he good fort une to be
able to at tend the 3rd Int ernationa l Ani I11 3tion Film Festival. held in New York
City. Alt hough m any festivals have an
an im a ti o n ca tegory, thHe are only three
;n Ih e world that show th ese films exclu " l't :\ ' , and th e New York one is the on ly
<'Ill' he re in the ,states , Predictably then,
: ~, l F('stival was chock - full of many,
!1ldl1\' di ffere nt kinds of animated films,
cd I c0 mpctin g for prizes a nd recogn iti on
Iro m an aud ience that included fi lm dis: f ibutors, jury members, and p lain o ld a n IIna tion freaks,
The Festival ran for four days, with
I tim, showing continuo usly nine hours a
day, somet im es in several theatres , The
afternoons and early eveni ngs generally
co ntained film s in competit ion , while the
late r evenings were devoted to retrospec tives. The films in competition were arranged in different categories - children's,
ex perimental , commercial, etc. Wh il e
there were no cas h prizes, a tremendous
number of films were entered nonetheless,
appa rent ly because the New York event is
t he best place to have your work shown
aga in st others of simil ar qu a lity , For
wha tever reason, over 200 films were
sh own , ex hausting everybody and draining eve ry nea rby coffeepot.
THE NAVEL OF A G[ANT
Th e film s in co mpetition ranged from
fairly so phisticated student film s to very
sop histi ca ted profess ional works, The best
st udent piece wa s ca lled Mirror People ,
b y Kathy Rose o f CalArts , [t was a spoof
o f I he classic cops and robbers chase
sce ne, on ly do ne in an ext remely fluid
,t y lc. T he cars of both parties so rt of
p"ureJ ra th er than roll ed ove r the land,capc, and both sides' guns fired bullets of
wil y- like materia l th a t ·sp lat ted on impact.
flJllway thro ugh th e chase, the camera
pulled bac k 10 revea l th a t they were driv II1g art 'un d the stomac h of a gia nt , and
, h,. rtly thereaf ter they dived down its
n<lveI. The rest o f the giant soon fol lo wed
" nc! Ih,' 'Cfcc n was left b lank,
r~ec ently
The best profeSS iona l piece in competition wou ld be hard to pick, there were so
many excellent ones_ Some of my favorites were ; the title section (7 minutes)
of The Return of th e Pink Panther, animated by th e Richard Williams Studio in
London; Exponents by Charles Eames,
the well -known deSigner; Coney, Frank
Morris' latest work (after Frankfilm) ; and
finally, Where the Wi ld Things Are, a
film from the book illustrations (of the
sa me title) by Maurice SeTldak , The best
co mpute r -a nima ted film by far was Peter
Foldes' HUllger, which wa s nominated for
an Academy Award earlier this year, [t
was ve ry we ll received at this event al so,
IN RETROSPECT
A lth ough a fair amo unt of effort went
in to a rrang ing a nd publicizing the films in
wm petiti on, they weren't the best at te nd ed, The thing the c rowds rea lly
IlI rned out for were the " Retrospectives,"
show ing histories of t he work o f Chuck
jones, Walte.r Lantz, 1ex Avery, Winsor
McCay; and of course, Disney _ Between
these five studios alone, most of the
famous animated characters in film
history were accou nt ed for, including
Woody Woodpecker, The Roadrunner
(and Wily Coyote), Mickey, Minnie ,
Pluto, and Donald, Daffy Duck, Chilly
Willy, Bugs Bunny, and Porky P ig, To
see these cartoon characters develop from
their earl iest inceptions was a rare treat
a nd was like reliving the childhoods of
the last , th ree generat ions , Highlights included - Gertie the Dinosaur (1914), the
classic McCay film; Steamboat Willie
(1928), starring Mickey Mouse in the first
ca rt oon with a sy nchronized soundtrack;
Bad 1.uck Blackie (1949), by Tex Av~ry,
the originator of the (well-deserved) title
"Loo ny Tune;" severa l "Silly Symphon ies"
(1929 - 32), the early almost-unbel ievably
beautiful Disney shorts; and the classic
Barber of SeVJlle (1944), which features
an incredibly wi ld and za n y Woody
Woodpecker as a semi-sadistic barber.
There was one final feature of the even t
that made it different from the routine of
a reg ul ar fes tival. Sensing somet hing on
the horizon perhaps, the Festival hosted
an International Conference on Computer
Anim at ion, wh ich covered four mornings_
Th is sub-event featured speakers from the
U .S" Canada, and Europe, covering the
latest techniques in this field, The news is
very promising - computer programs are
getting more sophisticated, video technology keeps maturing a nd approaching film
resolution, and the two mediums become
more intertwined by the day, Several
computer-video outfits are already succeeding co,; nmercially, and standard studios -are beginning to test the waters. One
of the jury members who had been with
Disney Studios si nce th e '30's, assured me
that th ey definitel y were interested in the
technology and were exploring its possibilities for cha ract er animation, The film
professional s showed the same degree of
int ense interest, much of that centering
a round the lin e between human and
m achin e crea tivit y,
This quest;on of man vs, machine, perhaps o ne of the most importa nt for animators in this era, was best a nswered by
a speaker from England. As he put it:
"Animation has always been severely handicapped by the amo unt
of mechanical labor invo lved, It
wo uld be difficult to estimate how
many films have been abando ned
at the ideas stage simp ly because of
the la bor and cost; it's also difficult
to imagine what the animation in dustry wou ld be like if everyone in
it was directing their own films , instead of working on someone else's_
T his indicates something of the untapped potential that exists for animati o n ; if computer animation can
re lease this potential it seems quite
likely it would have a revolutionary impact on th e whole area of
visua l comm unications, "

GOVERNMENT AND

COSTIGAN ON
IRISH TRAGEDY
Dr. Giovanni Costigan, noted professor
of history at the University of Washington, will lecture on "The Tragedy of
Northern Ireland" Monday, Nov. 3, at 8
p .m. in the Capitol Rotunda of the State
Cap itol Dome Bu ilding in Olympia. Admission is free on a space-available baSIS.
In his lecture, Costigan w ill describe the
chief features of Northern Ireland's government from 1920 to 1972, including the
discrimination practiced against the Cathol ic minority by the Protestant majority.
The events which led to the fall of the
Stormont government in 1972 - such as
the origins of the Civil Rights protest
movement in 1969, and the revival of the
Irish Republican Army in 1970 - will be
examined .
The final phase of the discussion will
deal with the terror inAicted upon the
people of Northern Ireland by extrem ists
on both sides, and the attempts of the
British government, since "direct rule"
from London began in 1972, to find a solution to the tragedy.
Costigan, who specializes in ~nglish
and Irish history, has recently WrItten a
book ca lled H istory of Modem Ireland,
With a Sketch of Earlier Times .
The lecture is sponsored by the Universit y of Washington A lumn i Associat ion
and Continuing Education at the University of Wash ington.

WOMEN'S ASSERTIVENESS
WORKSHOPS

:r-
'"o
.~
Women will have the opportunity to
part icipate in the Women's Assertiveness
Train ing Workshop offered by the Hu man Growth Cenler (formerly Counseling
Serv icesi as they begin their second session
- Nov. 6 - Dec. 4. The workshop, led by
Counselor Lou -Ellen Peffer, will meet
Thursday evenings from 7 - 9 p.m.
Using theories from Alberti and Emmons' Stand Up . Speak Out, Talk Back,
comb ined with ideas from Manuel Smith's
When 1 Say No I Feel Gu ilty, Ms. Peffer
is concerned w ith training peop le to recognize old patterns and habits of behavior
as they interact with people.
One type of behavior the workshop
tries to help people work away from IS
non-assertiveness. This is defined as someone who during interaction with other
people is likely to hesitate, speak softly,
look away, agree regardless of their own
feelings, not express opinions, value self
below others, and hurt self to aVOId hurting others .
While they train women away from
non -assertiveness and toward assertiveness, a definite distinction is made between an aggressive person and an assertive person. Aggressive persons are described as speaking loudly and abusive.ly,
glaring at others, vehemently expoundmg
beliefs and opinions, valuing self above
others and hurting others to avoid hurting self. The goal of the workshop is to
train people to function somewhere between these two extremes, as an asserttve
person. This is someone who can answer
spontaneously, speak to the is.s ue, ?~enly
express personal feelings and opmlOns,
value self equal to others and hurt neither
self or others during personal interaction .
Assertiveness is defined as behavior which
enables a person to act in their own best
interest, to express honest feelings c~m
fortably, to stand up for themsel,,:es WIthout undue anxiety and to exercIse theIr
rights without denying the rights of
others .
The first session (which is required for
all participants) begins with a personal i.ndepth discussion of the three essentIal
terms the workshop will deal with : non assertiveness, aggressiveness, and assertiveness. Each person is expected to become
aware of their own past behavior patterns
and role expectations, as well as their re la tionship to the three terms. Once some
understanding has been developed the
group ta kes the first steps toward learning
how to learn in a different w.a y . Through
specific exercises, role-playing and prac ti cing, people begin to learn how to respond differently than their old patterns
dictate, they learn how to break the
habit. Ms . Peffer stressed that emp hasis is
not simply on learning how to act assertively, b ut learn ing how to learn how to
act assertively. This type of learning is
necessary for the person once they are out
of the constant group practice and feedback, interacting on their own. With this
knowledge they can continue to identify
their old patterns of behavior and respond
and deal with people in an assertive way.
Ms. Peffer pointed out that the sessions
do not tell people how they should act,
but provide them with a choice, a way to
interact that they were unaware of before
t hey en tered the session, and that they
may call upon to use in the future.
Assertiveness training is not considered
a cure-all for every problem a person
may have, bu t a chance to break away
from past patterns and act in a d ifferent
way.
Interested women should contact LouEllen Peffer in the Human Growth Center
soon, as the number of participants will
be limited .
LEGISLATIVE INTERNSHIPS
The deadline for applying for internships with the State Legislature winter
quarter is Monday, Nov. 10 at 5 p .m. To
apply, people should contact the Cooperative Education Office in Lab. 1000, or call
866-6391.
Any junior or senior who has attended
Evergreen for at least one academic year
can apply for the internships. Applications require a recommendation by an
Evergreen faculty member in a position to
judge the applicant's adaptability to the
legislative area. Applications will be
judged by a DTF, and four finalists wi!1
be selected, with other acceptable apphcants being put on an alternate list.
Interns will be assigned to legislators or
committees to assist with legislative research, constituent inquiries, special proj1'cts and other office functions. The internship will last the length of the legisla, tive session. Interns will work about 40 to
50 hours a week, and receive a $25 a
week stipend.

SOUNDING BOARD MEETS
Discussion on the term of office for academic deans and the appointment of student and faculty representatives to the
Board of Trustees were the main items of
business during the weekly Sounding
Board meeting Wednesday morning, Oct.
29.
Moderator Dave Blunt opened the meeting by reading an accoun t from an interview he had with President Charles McCann concerning McCann's proposal to
lengthen the term of office for t~e aca. demic deans. McCann wants to Increase
the term from the present three years to
five because he feels the deans should
have more experience in the areas of curriculum, recruiting and budget than is
possible during the present length of theIr
terms.
At the suggestion of Vice-President Ed
Kormo ndy, the term of office proposal
will be tabled for the time being so the
chOOSing of the new academic deans can
be completed.
.
The DTF charged with that task, whICh
had disbanded when the question of term
of office arose, has been reformed, according to Dick Nichols. He reported tha~ the
DTF w ill be in the process of recelvmg
nominations for the two posts until this
Friday. The group will meet Nov. 4 at. 8
a.m . in CAB 108 to finalize nominations.
Each candidate will prepare a public qualification fo lder and will be interviewed by
the DTF. The DTF will send the names of
four candidates, with a written reason for
each choice, to Ed Kormondy. He will
pick the two new deans - who will replace Lync, Pa tterson and Rudy Martin,
both of whom step down next summer.
All DTF meetings are open to the public.
The discussion turned next to the selection of student, faculty and staff representatives to the Board of Trustees. The
Board asked for the representatives last
May, requesting that at least one be a
woman and one be a member of a mmority group. Concern was expressed by
Sounding Board members as to how the
three would be picked so as to represent
the student community adequately .
Marcel Hatch proposed that r~presenta
tives be elected by a student-filculty vote.
SB members generally favored this proposal until Dick Nichols pointed out a
possible Aaw. An election might not meet
the requirements of the Board of Trustees
by failing to elect either a woman, a mInority, or both. Michael Lemon suggested
rotating the requirements each year. So,
for example, one year the students might
be required to elect a minority, the faculty a woman and the staff whoever they
wanted. The next year each group would
have a different requirement on who they
could elect.
.
The Sounding Board was also displeased
with the fact that these representatives
wo uld not be a llo wed to vote on Board of
Trustees because it is prohibited by state
law. It was suggested that a long-range
goal might be to try and get this law
changed.

COSTIGAN ON
IRISH TRAGEDY
Dr. Giovanni Costigan, noted professor
of history at the University of Washington, will lecture on "The Tragedy of
Northern Ireland" Monday, Nov. 3, at 8
p .m. in the Capitol Rotunda of the State
Cap itol Dome Bu ilding in Olympia. Admission is free on a space-available baSIS.
In his lecture, Costigan w ill describe the
chief features of Northern Ireland's government from 1920 to 1972, including the
discrimination practiced against the Cathol ic minority by the Protestant majority.
The events which led to the fall of the
Stormont government in 1972 - such as
the origins of the Civil Rights protest
movement in 1969, and the revival of the
Irish Republican Army in 1970 - will be
examined .
The final phase of the discussion will
deal with the terror inAicted upon the
people of Northern Ireland by extrem ists
on both sides, and the attempts of the
British government, since "direct rule"
from London began in 1972, to find a solution to the tragedy.
Costigan, who specializes in ~nglish
and Irish history, has recently WrItten a
book ca lled H istory of Modem Ireland,
With a Sketch of Earlier Times .
The lecture is sponsored by the Universit y of Washington A lumn i Associat ion
and Continuing Education at the University of Wash ington.

WOMEN'S ASSERTIVENESS
WORKSHOPS

o
:r-
'"o
.~
Women will have the opportunity to
part icipate in the Women's Assertiveness
Train ing Workshop offered by the Hu man Growth Cenler (formerly Counseling
Serv icesi as they begin their second session
- Nov. 6 - Dec. 4. The workshop, led by
Counselor Lou -Ellen Peffer, will meet
Thursday evenings from 7 - 9 p.m.
Using theories from Alberti and Emmons' Stand Up . Speak Out, Talk Back,
comb ined with ideas from Manuel Smith's
When 1 Say No I Feel Gu ilty, Ms. Peffer
is concerned w ith training peop le to recognize old patterns and habits of behavior
as they interact with people.
One type of behavior the workshop
tries to help people work away from IS
non-assertiveness. This is defined as someone who during interaction with other
people is likely to hesitate, speak softly,
look away, agree regardless of their own
feelings, not express opinions, value self
below others, and hurt self to aVOId hurting others .
While they train women away from
non -assertiveness and toward assertiveness, a definite distinction is made between an aggressive person and an assertive person. Aggressive persons are described as speaking loudly and abusive.ly,
glaring at others, vehemently expoundmg
beliefs and opinions, valuing self above
others and hurting others to avoid hurting self. The goal of the workshop is to
train people to function somewhere between these two extremes, as an asserttve
person. This is someone who can answer
spontaneously, speak to the is.s ue, ?~enly
express personal feelings and opmlOns,
value self equal to others and hurt neither
self or others during personal interaction .
Assertiveness is defined as behavior which
enables a person to act in their own best
interest, to express honest feelings c~m
fortably, to stand up for themsel,,:es WIthout undue anxiety and to exercIse theIr
rights without denying the rights of
others .
The first session (which is required for
all participants) begins with a personal i.ndepth discussion of the three essentIal
terms the workshop will deal with : non assertiveness, aggressiveness, and assertiveness. Each person is expected to become
aware of their own past behavior patterns
and role expectations, as well as their re la tionship to the three terms. Once some
understanding has been developed the
group ta kes the first steps toward learning
how to learn in a different w.a y . Through
specific exercises, role-playing and prac ti cing, people begin to learn how to respond differently than their old patterns
dictate, they learn how to break the
habit. Ms . Peffer stressed that emp hasis is
not simply on learning how to act assertively, b ut learn ing how to learn how to
act assertively. This type of learning is
necessary for the person once they are out
of the constant group practice and feedback, interacting on their own. With this
knowledge they can continue to identify
their old patterns of behavior and respond
and deal with people in an assertive way.
Ms. Peffer pointed out that the sessions
do not tell people how they should act,
but provide them with a choice, a way to
interact that they were unaware of before
t hey en tered the session, and that they
may call upon to use in the future.
Assertiveness training is not considered
a cure-all for every problem a person
may have, bu t a chance to break away
from past patterns and act in a d ifferent
way.
Interested women should contact LouEllen Peffer in the Human Growth Center
soon, as the number of participants will
be limited .
LEGISLATIVE INTERNSHIPS

SJR 101: REGULATING THE COURTS
by Rick Skadan
Among the items in the Nov.
4 election is a bill 'dealing with
the Washington's Court system .
It is Senate Joint Resolution 101
- the longest and most complex
~ssue on the ballot. Its complexIty has destroyed public interest
in spite of its relative importanc~
to the public. In issues such as
these, politicians like to present
such a complicated picture that
the genera l public will have to
assume that the politicians know
what they are doing, and go
along with it blindly . For this
reason, the resolution passed the
Washington State Legislature
with only three negative votes.
There are several theories of
how a judiciary should function.
Some people feel the courts
shou ld be under public control,
so that their decisions will be
consis tent with general public
op inion . Others feel the justices
should be isolated, that they are
concerned with the law and not
public opinion. The first side
feels the courts should not take
an active part in the formation
of policy, the other side feels
that the courts should take a n
aGtive part. The difference is
"judicial restraint" vs. "judicial
activism." The problem with SJR
101 is that it uses proposals from
both sides, and tries to incorporate them into one unified package. The result is that the individual can sU'Pport part of the
bill, while being very opposed to
other parts. The bill is too complex to be presented as one item '
it should be broken down int~
its component parts and handled
separa tely.
S J R 101 is a list of seven proposed changes in the state judiciary system and is designed to
both streamline the system and
bring it under more direct control (both public and intergovernmental contro l).
The first sect ion deals with legislative authority. It makes a few
additions to the legislature's authority to regulate the courts in

The fifth section would alter
the Constitution to permi t district
courts to be set up. This is pursuant to the first section as a
means of reorganizing the court's
administration .
The sixth section is fairly interesting' if not important. It
says all judges must be members
of the bar (must be lawyers).
and anyone seeking a judgeship
must be a member of the bar. lt
excl udes those who are currently
judges but are not members.
This would then excl ude other
people who are equally qualified
to pass on the law. Judging by
the number of lawyers in the
Washington State Legislature, it
is no wonder that this would be
in the bill.
The seventh section subjects
the courts to an annual postaudit. This is getting to be a reg ular inter-governmental process: its purpose is to have greater
control over funding . Most government agencies are subject to
this type of audit.
The main functi on of SJR 101
is to bring the judiciary under
more direct contr'ol, and it provides several methods for doing
this. It is mainly a latent response to the activism of the
Warren Court. But it has never
been shown that this form of
con trol will provide a more
eq uitable form of justice. And if
you disagree with the intentions
of public control, then you must
be against SJR 101 .
However, the bill does provide
for a necessary streamlini ng of
the courts in Washington , which
is long overdue.

and four private citizens - so
part of this control will come
from the public. This commission could easily become a political tool because the two lawyers

be appointed by the governor.

issues such as setting the number
of judges and courts, the method
of funding the courts and the defining of courts of record. The
most important issue here is
that the bill give~ the method of
se lecting justices to the legislature, but it stipu lates that the
on ly method the legislators can
use is public election. This is a
most effective way of keeping
the JustIces under public control.
but there are good arguments
against this.
The second section deals with
the administrative responsibility
of the court system. The object
of this section is to organize the
courts under one administrator,
who would be appointed by the
Chief Justice. Towards this end
the state would be divided u~
mto distr icts, and the Supreme
Court would establish rules so
these districts could be administered uniformly. This section
a lso provides a new method for
selecting the Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court. The Chief Justice
is to be elected by a majority of
the Court for a maximum of two
four-year terms. Proponents of
the bill see this as another
method for controlling the Court,
SInce it limits the power of the
Chief Justice. There are also
good arguments against it; for
instance, would Earl Warren
have been so bold if he had to
worry about his reelection 7
The third section provides the
a uthority to direct justices to sit
on other courts, if the need,
should arise.
The fourth section is the most
~ontro.versial. It would set up a
JudICIal Qualifications Commission" to review the activities of
judges around the state, and to
make recommendations to the
Chief Justice, if it feels action
should be taken. The commission wou ld consider disability or
mIsconduct of judges, and make
recommendations to either remove, suspend or discipline
them. This is a very powerful
check on the judges, since the
term "misconduct" can have a

SJR 127: PUBLIC LEGISLATIVE CONTROL
Senate Joint Resolution 127 is
a bill designed to give -the public
greater control over the legislature. It offers a new method for
setting the pay rates of legisla tors, and expands their eligibility
for holding other offices. It can
be broken down into two parts.
The first part deals with setting
up a commission to set the pay
rate of legislators. The commission would be made up of private citizens, and would exclude
such people as lobbyists and
other governmental officials. The
comm ission would have th e authority to make proposed changes
in salaries to the Secretary of
State, and the proposals would
become effective in 90 days . The
decisions of the commission can
only be appealed by a referendum to the people, and it must
be filed within 90 days from the
time that the proposal reaches
the Secretary of State .
The second part allows state
legislators to seek other elected
positions, as long as those positions were not created in the session of the legislature that the
legislator is serving on.
SJR 127 proposes to amend
the parts of the Constitution
which deal with the payment of
legisla tors. The Constitution says
SECRETARY OF ST ATE
The Republican Party's rising
young star, Bruce Chapman (taking the place of old star Lud
Kramer who dudded-out against
Don Bonker), is running for Secretary of State against Everett
Democrat Kay Anderson.
The winner will fill the remaining year of the secretary's
term. The office was vacated by
Kramer earlier this year and
Chapman was appointed by
Governor Dan Evans to fill the
position.
Chapman is a former member of the Seattle City Council. a
position he held until he was ap pointed Secretary of State. In his
campa ign statement published in
the Voters Pamphlet , he points
out that he has curtailed excessive spending in the Secretary of
State's office and says he resists
"adding costly, permanent programs and bureaucracy."
Anderson, elected Snohomish
County Clerk in 1970, is an experienced administrator and rec ords manager. She says she
would work towards increasing
the efficiency of the office
through a variety of methods,
and a lso advocates that the
office become more involved in
solving citizens' problems, serv o
ing as an ombudsman between
citizens and state government .
It has been two decades since
the legislature will set its own
rate of pay, with certa in limit ations as to the timing of pay rate
changes . The object of SJR 12 7
is to give the public a mor"" di rect voice in the matter.
There are conflicting theories
as to what effect the rate of pay
has on the qual ity of legislation ,
so the commission will have no
clear-cut policy to follow in
making its deci sions. This could
turn the commission into a polit ical football - with the legislature caught in the middle , unable
to have a voice.
It seems that this can only be
counter productive . Being a state
legislator is a very unglamoro us
job, and there are many inhibiting factors that must be cons id ered before one decides to undertake such a job . The pay is not
very good, so yo u have to hav e
another source of income. but if
yo u have a job, you have to
take a large chunk of time off to
attend sessions. It seems that SJR
127 will amount to a nother inhibiting factor that must be con sidered by prospective legislators .
In Washington, we definitely do
not need to further reduce the
possibilities for qualified people
to enter the legislature.
a woman has held a statewide
elective 'O ffice, Anderson says,
and feels it is time for a woman's
viewpoint to again be represented
in the execut ive branch .
There has been a moderate
amount of mud-slinging in the
Secretary of State r ace, but
nothing major has come of it.
Both candidates are clean of
scandal and dishonesty . Both are
expected by their respective parties to perhaps be future political
stars. Both will be experiencing
their first major battle in this
election.
HJR 19
Another issue o n the ballot
generating a certain amount of
controversy is House Joint Reso lution 19, a proposed constitu tion a l amendment that would
permit limited governmental assIstance to students a tt enaing
non-public colleges and schools.
The way the law now reads is
that the state is prohibited from
appropria ting any public money
for the support of any religious
establish ment. It also says that
schools maintained wholly or in
part by public funds must be free
of sectarian control and influence. And thirdly , it prohibits
any gifts or loans by state or local government to any pr ivate
individual. except for the support
of the needy .

issues such as setting the number
of judges and courts, the method
of funding the courts and the defining of courts of record. The
most important issue here is
that the bill give~ the method of
se lecting justices to the legislature, but it stipu lates that the
on ly method the legislators can
use is public election. This is a
most effective way of keeping
the JustIces under public control.
but there are good arguments
against this.
The second section deals with
the administrative responsibility
of the court system. The object
of this section is to organize the
courts under one administrator,
who would be appointed by the
Chief Justice. Towards this end
the state would be divided u~
mto distr icts, and the Supreme
Court would establish rules so
these districts could be administered uniformly. This section
a lso provides a new method for
selecting the Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court. The Chief Justice
is to be elected by a majority of
the Court for a maximum of two
four-year terms. Proponents of
the bill see this as another
method for controlling the Court,
SInce it limits the power of the
Chief Justice. There are also
good arguments against it; for
instance, would Earl Warren
have been so bold if he had to
worry about his reelection 7
The third section provides the
a uthority to direct justices to sit
on other courts, if the need,
should arise.
The fourth section is the most
~ontro.versial. It would set up a
JudICIal Qualifications Commission" to review the activities of
judges around the state, and to
make recommendations to the
Chief Justice, if it feels action
should be taken. The commission wou ld consider disability or
mIsconduct of judges, and make
recommendations to either remove, suspend or discipline
them. This is a very powerful
check on the judges, since the
term "misconduct" can have a

SJR 127: PUBLIC LEGISLATIVE CONTROL
Senate Joint Resolution 127 is
a bill designed to give -the public
greater control over the legislature. It offers a new method for
setting the pay rates of legisla tors, and expands their eligibility
for holding other offices. It can
be broken down into two parts.
The first part deals with setting
up a commission to set the pay
rate of legislators. The commission would be made up of private citizens, and would exclude
such people as lobbyists and
other governmental officials. The
comm ission would have th e authority to make proposed changes
in salaries to the Secretary of
State, and the proposals would
become effective in 90 days . The
decisions of the commission can
only be appealed by a referendum to the people, and it must
be filed within 90 days from the
time that the proposal reaches
the Secretary of State .
The second part allows state
legislators to seek other elected
positions, as long as those positions were not created in the session of the legislature that the
legislator is serving on.
SJR 127 proposes to amend
the parts of the Constitution
which deal with the payment of
legisla tors. The Constitution says
SECRETARY OF ST ATE
The Republican Party's rising
young star, Bruce Chapman (taking the place of old star Lud
Kramer who dudded-out against
Don Bonker), is running for Secretary of State against Everett
Democrat Kay Anderson.
The winner will fill the remaining year of the secretary's
term. The office was vacated by
Kramer earlier this year and
Chapman was appointed by
Governor Dan Evans to fill the
position.
Chapman is a former member of the Seattle City Council. a
position he held until he was ap pointed Secretary of State. In his
campa ign statement published in
the Voters Pamphlet , he points
out that he has curtailed excessive spending in the Secretary of
State's office and says he resists
"adding costly, permanent programs and bureaucracy."
Anderson, elected Snohomish
County Clerk in 1970, is an experienced administrator and rec ords manager. She says she
would work towards increasing
the efficiency of the office
through a variety of methods,
and a lso advocates that the
office become more involved in
solving citizens' problems, serv o
ing as an ombudsman between
citizens and state government .
It has been two decades since
the legislature will set its own
rate of pay, with certa in limit ations as to the timing of pay rate
changes . The object of SJR 12 7
is to give the public a mor"" di rect voice in the matter.
There are conflicting theories
as to what effect the rate of pay
has on the qual ity of legislation ,
so the commission will have no
clear-cut policy to follow in
making its deci sions. This could
turn the commission into a polit ical football - with the legislature caught in the middle , unable
to have a voice.
It seems that this can only be
counter productive . Being a state
legislator is a very unglamoro us
job, and there are many inhibiting factors that must be cons id ered before one decides to undertake such a job . The pay is not
very good, so yo u have to hav e
another source of income. but if
yo u have a job, you have to
take a large chunk of time off to
attend sessions. It seems that SJR
127 will amount to a nother inhibiting factor that must be con sidered by prospective legislators .
In Washington, we definitely do
not need to further reduce the
possibilities for qualified people
to enter the legislature.
a woman has held a statewide
elective 'O ffice, Anderson says,
and feels it is time for a woman's
viewpoint to again be represented
in the execut ive branch .
There has been a moderate
amount of mud-slinging in the
Secretary of State r ace, but
nothing major has come of it.
Both candidates are clean of
scandal and dishonesty . Both are
expected by their respective parties to perhaps be future political
stars. Both will be experiencing
their first major battle in this
election.
HJR 19
Another issue o n the ballot
generating a certain amount of
controversy is House Joint Reso lution 19, a proposed constitu tion a l amendment that would
permit limited governmental assIstance to students a tt enaing
non-public colleges and schools.
The way the law now reads is
that the state is prohibited from
appropria ting any public money
for the support of any religious
establish ment. It also says that
schools maintained wholly or in
part by public funds must be free
of sectarian control and influence. And thirdly , it prohibits
any gifts or loans by state or local government to any pr ivate
individual. except for the support
of the needy .

be the most reactive to the bluing, although one specie, Psilocybe Cyanescens,
reacts very well on all parts. Other hou bies tend to have a bluish base even if
they don't react in the handling.
The spores tend to darken the gill tissue
with age. Psilocybes have purple-brown
to grayish-brown spore prints. So if you
pick a mushroom with white or orange
g ills, you don' t have a Psilocybe. Psathyrellas migh t tend to confuse the neophyte
houbie hunter since they are often grow ing in plac~s where one might be looking
for houbies. Spore color is similar, but
they don't have a pellicle and are quite
fragi le. C heck out a book on mushroom s
in genera l, it will discuss some of the similar mu shrooms and steer you away from
the poiso nous species . I sugge st looking at
Orson M iller 's Mu s hrooms of North
Ameri ca, it is a good book th at d iscusses
a wide variety of edible and non- edible
mushroo ms.
Don't ge t too high in the fie ld as so me
people did in Oregon . They ate so me
houbies and took off their clothes to fro li c
in the meadow. When t he far mer who
owned the la nd saw these "crazy hippies "
dancing in his pasture, he called the police
and their trip wa s cancelled.
Most landowners are friendly to persons requesti ng permi ssion to look for
mushrooms on their land. Some have anima ls th at t hey don't want disturbed.
Others have aggress ive bulls that could be
a problem for th e mushroom hunter! So
it 's a good idea to ask before you go look ing for houbies on private land .
Houbies can be a delightful way to enlightenment. Too bad they are classified
as a dangerous drug . But in the minds of
some, I suppose they can be dangerous.

recommended that more complete written

with formalizing the Hearing Board procedures, but there are three points which

• The Board will consider the merits of
the case at hand without regard to conse quences of their decision in the college

be the most reactive to the bluing, although one specie, Psilocybe Cyanescens,
reacts very well on all parts. Other hou bies tend to have a bluish base even if
they don't react in the handling.
The spores tend to darken the gill tissue
with age. Psilocybes have purple-brown
to grayish-brown spore prints. So if you
pick a mushroom with white or orange
g ills, you don' t have a Psilocybe. Psathyrellas migh t tend to confuse the neophyte
houbie hunter since they are often grow ing in plac~s where one might be looking
for houbies. Spore color is similar, but
they don't have a pellicle and are quite
fragi le. C heck out a book on mushroom s
in genera l, it will discuss some of the similar mu shrooms and steer you away from
the poiso nous species . I sugge st looking at
Orson M iller 's Mu s hrooms of North
Ameri ca, it is a good book th at d iscusses
a wide variety of edible and non- edible
mushroo ms.
Don't ge t too high in the fie ld as so me
people did in Oregon . They ate so me
houbies and took off their clothes to fro li c
in the meadow. When t he far mer who
owned the la nd saw these "crazy hippies "
dancing in his pasture, he called the police
and their trip wa s cancelled.
Most landowners are friendly to persons requesti ng permi ssion to look for
mushrooms on their land. Some have anima ls th at t hey don't want disturbed.
Others have aggress ive bulls that could be
a problem for th e mushroom hunter! So
it 's a good idea to ask before you go look ing for houbies on private land .
Houbies can be a delightful way to enlightenment. Too bad they are classified
as a dangerous drug . But in the minds of
some, I suppose they can be dangerous.

The Hearing Board Procedures DTF has
recommended that more complete written
procedures be provided and that the
Board's relation to the Trustees be clarified. The recommendations are concerned
with formalizing the Hearing Board procedures, but there are three points which
deem mentioning here.
• Board decisions w ill not serve as prec edents to other Hearing Board cases,
• The Board will consider the merits of
the case at hand without regard to conse quences of their decision in the college
comm un ity .
• The Trustees may not over tu rn a dec ision except if there "is a clear contro versy (In p rocedural gro unds."
Each of th ese point s deserves attention
from s tudent s. There are copies of the
