Stolen a book late ly?
The Evergreen bookstore has been prosecuting all shoplifters. Persons caught
stealing are taken to Security, where forma l charges are filed through the Thurston County Sheriff's Department. (Fulltime Security employees are Sheriff's
Dept. deputies .)
Once charged, shoplifters may be fined
u p to $200 in addition to a IS-day jail
sentence. Although the jail sentence may
be suspended, the Thurston County courts
have been imposing the full $200 fine .
Bookstore manager Doris McCarty
stated that she'd rather people wouldn't
fee l as if they had to steal bookstore
materia ls, and that they would think befo re appropriating a notebook, candy bar
or 19 cent pen.
McCarty said, "It's not our ultimate

goal to prosecute people . We'd rather
have a prevention program. . but hopefully the knowledge of prosecution will
act as a deterrent to a would-be shoplifter."
According to McCarty, the bookstore
lost over $7,000 last year through shop lifting. Since the beginning of this year .
nearly $2.000 has been lost through theft
- not only boo kstore supplies, but also
plates, glasses and silver from SAGA .
according to Director of Auxiliary Services John Moss .
Moss also said that theft fro m the booksto re, library, SAGA and the Rec. Center
is costing each student about $100 per

DISPUTE OVER BIOCIDE USE HEATS UP
by C urt Milton
Diazinon. Parathion. Chlorodane.
2,4-D.
Alt hough they sound like the names of
exotic diseases or the multi-s ided· geometric shapes you had to learn in grade
schooL these words are actuall y the patented labels for chem ical pesticides. The
question of whether or not these chemicals are being used on camp us, and to
what ex tent they pose a danger to humans
and an imals, has been raised in recent
weeks by students Chris D lugokenski and
John Peard .
In a presentation to the Environmental
Advisory Committee Feb. 4, Dlugokenski
charged that 2, 4-D had been sprayed on
certain areas of the campus in the summer
of 1975 despite an earlier agreement be- tween Vice-President Dean Clabaugh and
Director of Facilities Jerry Schillinger not
to use the chemical. Peard described what
he fee ls are the bad effects of the pesticides on the env ironment and wildlife .
D1ugokenski listed the chemical biocides
he found on the shelves at faci lities, categorizing 2, 4-D as a "mutagen," and chI orodane as both a "carcinogen" and "embryo- toxic." Bill Kennedy, grounds maintenance supervisor, calls those claims "unfounded" and says that " I haven't been
able to find where he (Chris) got his
source of information (about the pesticides). " Kennedy says that D ick Maxwell,
a chemica l specia list with Washington
State University and the state's leading
pesticide expert has also never heard of
these alleged effects.
On ly two people on campus have the
necessary state license to apply pesticides .
Kennedy is one and Bill Mobbs, another
grounds employee, is the other. Both have
att ended various pesticide schools and
passed the sta te test to get their applicator's licenses. Kennedy says that Wash ington's laws regarding pesticides and their

usage are among the toughest in the nation and were used as a model for the
federal regu lations.
Angered by the charges being leveled in
his direction, Kennedy made a reply at a
meeting of th!(EAC Feb . 10 and in an interview w ith the Journal.
Concerning the charge that 2, 4-D is
be ing used for tansy weed control. Kennedy replied that he has never sprayed for
tansy, a plant toxic to cattle. Last summer
he did emp loy student help to remove the
weed, by hand , at $2 an hour. Total cost:
$1,800. "I could have sprayed the whole
campus for tha t amount I" Kennedy remarked . •
Jerry Schillinger t o ld th e Sound i:-,g
Board Feb . 18 that he had reached a compromise with the EAC last spring which
would allow continued spraying of 2, 4-D
on the lawn areas and the mats along th e '
highway. However , Schillinger can't find
a written copy of the agreement.
Of the chemicals listed by Dlugokenski .
several are no longer in use, either having
been taken off the market by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or ruled
to be too dangerous and unneeded by Bill
Kennedy.
While speaking before the Sounding
Board Feb. 11, Dlugokenski claimed that
chlorodane, diazinon a nd sevin were in
use on campus. Kennedy says that just
the opposite is true; that these chemical s
as well as ma lat hion have been taken off
th e market by the EPA and are no longer
in use at Evergreen. The sevin has never
been used and remaining stocks of the
four chemicals will probably be turned
over to the University of Washington.
There is some 2, 4, 5-T around but Kennedy is inclined to use it in small amounts
if at a ll.
Other chemicals to be used, according
to Kennedy, all are rated as safe by the

EPA, include: 2. 4-D - to be used on
39 .54 acres of turf; Amitrole- T - 5.43
acres of shoulders and anywhere grass or
weeds are growing through cracks in asphalt or concrete; Princep 80W - same
as Amitrole- T; Paraquot ~ lines on ballfield; Tersan LSR and Tersan 1991 both on turf grass as needed; KXL - for
insect and fungi control on ornamentals
and trees; and Caceron - for general
weed control in planting areas.
The possibility of using biological controls, such as the cynabar moth to destroy
tansy, was raised by Dlugokenski but
Ke nn edy says they're too expensive. The
cynabar moth can't survive in the Olympia ;!,-~a 3!ld Kennedy e$timates it would
take six people working full-time six
months to clean all the weeds off the
campus. There are only five people on
Kennedy's staff. Under state regulations,
the grounds department should be employing 25 people to cover the 250 to 300
acres of developed area on campus.
Basing his calculations on the 57 inches
of rain that fell on Evergreen last year ,
Kennedy says that the final dilution for
all pesticides applied on campus was .186
parts per million.
Is the use of biocides on campus safe?
Bill Kennedy says "yes" but others disagree. At the Sounding Board meeting
Wednesday, Dean Clabaugh announced
that he is gathering a group of concerned
persons to formulate a policy on the use
of bioc ides. The group will try to solve
one of the stumbling blocks of past exper ience with biocide use agreements by set- '
ting the po licy down in writing. Previous
agree ments were usually made verbally
which meant they were easily forgotten
or, if they were remembered at all, were
remembered differently by different people .
To spray or not to spray ... the biocide debate cont inues.

Gregory's speech.

NADER'S BRAINCHILD

Public Interest Research at Evergreen
by Ti Locke
At Evergreen, we have a strong tendency to drift off into a world of vegetarian communes and woodsy retreats while
generally ignoring the outside world. We
welcome the ivory - towered isolation of
seminars, where we wrestle with the
wrongs of our world.
What can students do? Plenty, if they
have a PIRG (Public Interest Research
Group) to work through. For instance,
INPIRG (Indiana) won a major battle in
w hich they blocked a proposed ten-cent
charge for directory assistance. MaryPIRG (Maryland) banned an industrial
salt containing asbestos that was being
sold as table salt. OSPIRG (Oregon) and
ot hers have taken action against the sales
of dangerous toys.

NADER'S BRAINCHILD

---_._---------------------------'

,.

PIRG groups are the brainchild of
consumer advocate Ralph Nader. During the fall and summer of 1970, Nader

and his associates traveled to over 40
college campuses with the PIRG proposal. The essence of the proposal was
that students tax themselves a nominal
sum in order to hire a group of professionals to help them seek solutions to

public interest problems.
The money the students taxed themselves would help pay the professionals
and fund research projects. In turn the
professionals - who would include grad
students in medicine or law, for instance
- would help provide the continuity for
PIRG groups from year to year.
OREGON FIRST TO RESPOND
Students in Oregon were the first to re -

spond to Nader's proposal. By January,
1971, signa tures of over 50 % of the stu dents in state colleges , four private
schools and four community colleges had
been obtained . By signing a PIRG petition
students pledged a refundable $11 qtr. (or
$1.50 / semester) fee to be added to their

stantial" amount of the university's total
revenue would have to be used toward
lobbying efforts to lose tax-exemption .
But the OSPIRG funds amounted to less
than one-tenth of one percent of th e
school's total revenues. The OSPIRG
measure passed .

usual tuition payment.
However, the Oregon State Board of
Education was worried about using the
university as a collection agency, and
wondered if the university would lose its
tax-exempt status because of OSPIRG activities .
It was decided that although the university acted as the collection agency and
had possession of the money, OSPIRG
had the control.
And , in order for the college to lose its
tax-exempt status, first it would have to
be assumed that the college had control
over the money. Then, OSPIRG would
have to use all of its funds toward lobbving activities. A law states that a "sub-

THE FUNDING
For a PIRG to operate efficiently, the
signatures and monetary support of
70,000 students is needed. Few campuses
are that big, so many campuses band together to form a state-wide PIRG .
In Washington, the University of Wash ington (UW), Washington State Univer sity (WSU) and Western Washington
State College (WWSC) have been having
WashPIRG petition drives.
WWSC and WSU have completed their
petition drives, while the UW is nearing
the end of theirs. All three schools have
asked for an additional $2 to be added to
tuition fees. These schools are also having

STATE SUPREME COURT

ro DECIDE

Indian· Woman Seeks NeU1 Trial
Wanrow's at torneys, two of whom art'
from the Center for Constitut iona l Right s
111 New York C it y, make the following as:sertlOns:
• P laying the tape during the original
trial was illega l.
• The jury was not made fully aware ,
as Washington sta te law requi res , of the
defendant's mental processes at the time
of the crime. Wan row says she was on
medication for beth a head cold and her
frac tured a nkle, and she was suffering
from a "confused sta te of mind ."
• The ba n at the original trial on expert
testimony to the effect that Ind ians are
more seriously distu rbed by ch ild molesting than whites was unjust.
• Wanrow, a member of the Lake Band
of the Co lville Confederated Tribes, was
not afforded her constitutional right to a
trial by her peers, si nce the ju ry that con vic ted her was all -white.
Deputy prosecutor Fred J. Caruso told
the Supreme Court Monday that the Ind 'a n woman's right s were not vi olated by
the use of the tape as evidence again sl
her, beca use the law does not require a
police office r to read a person her righ ts
when she vo lunteers information .

by Chris Cowger
The fa te of Yvonne Wanrow rests in
the hands of the nine Washington State
Suprem e Court Justices here in Olympia .
Wanrow, 32-year-o ld Co lville Indian
woman , is asking the court to uphold the
Sta te Court of Appea ls verdict which overturned her May 7, 1973 conv iction for
second-degree murder of a man she sa id
attacked her son .
Her team of three lawyers, all women,
argued before the Supreme Court Mon day, February 23, that Wanrow's co nstitu ti onal rights were violated before and during her origina l trial , and that she is entitled to a new trial.
On e of Wanrow's lawyers, Carol Schapira of Seattle, predicted a three- to- six
month delay before the court pronounces
its decision, "Of co urse we're hoping to
"'wi n," she sa id.
An est imated 150 - 200 people packed
the Hall of Ju stice in Olympia during the
proceedings, which ended in slightl y over
an hour. Ca ravans from Spokane, Sea ttl e,
and Tacoma brought Wan row's supporters, a nd ra llies were staged in Seattle o n
several days preceding as well as the day
after the trial.
The case has attracted nationwide attention for its si mila rity to last year's celebrated Nort h Carolina trial in whi ch Joan
Little, a black woman, was acquitted of
murder a fter she stabbed to death a white
jailer who a ttempt ed to rape her. If the
Supreme Co urt rules in Wanrow's favo r,
Wi lliam Kunstler , Little's attorney, w ill
join her defense team for the retria l.

The police kept her
on the phone by asking
questions, and, unknovvn to her, they
tape-recorded the ent ire conversation . . _
Wan row was convicted of ki lling a 62year-o ld Spokane man , William Wesler,
af ter (she cla imed ) he assa ulted her 9year -o ld so n and her babysitter's 10-yearold da ughter. The babysitter's 7- year- old
dau ghter a lso claimed that Wesler had

I

sex ua ll y molested her nearly a year earl ier.
T hereafter, a doctor determined that the
child had a venerea l disease.
Wanrow says she sho t Wesler when he
forcib ly entered her babysitter's home at 5
a.m. in a sta te of drunkenness . She was
on crutches wi th a broken ankle, and she
claimed he ad va nced o n bo th he r a nd her
son . In her panic she a lso shot and
wou nded 26-year- old David Kell y, who
was accompanyin g Wesler .
Wanrow then telephoned the Spokane
Crime Alert numb er and expla in ed to the
police what she had done. They kept her
on the phon e b y ask ing ques tions, and ,
unknown to her, they tape-recorded the
entire co nversa tion (a routine procedure
in ca lls of tha t na ture ). Onl y after her a d mission of th e ki llin g were her rights read
to her.

., _ . . The blood of my
ancestors run through
my veins and through
my children's sacred
bodies . _ . The love I
have for them is greater than any force here
on earth . . . "

The tape w as la ter admitted in the trial
as ev idence against her. A previously
deadlocked jury required just 45 minutes
to reac h a gu ilty verdict after a replaying
of the tape, a nd th ree jurors admitted that
the tape was the decisive fac tor.
Wan row was sen tenced to two concurrent 20 vear pr iso n terms - o ne for
second degree murder a nd the other for
Erst degree assa ult - and five years of
ma ndatory co nfinem ent for use of a deadly weapon . She wo uld serve the sentences
at the Purdy Treatment Center for Women
in Gig Ha rbor.
Th e appea ls (Ourt then ruled the tape
inadmissible evidence and gra nted Wan row an o ther tria l. However, a two to one
verdict permit ted th e Spokane prosecut or
to appea l that verdict to the Supreme
C ourt.

As an art ist and a dancer, Wanrow has
been ra isin g m o ney for her defen se
around Ihe state . Com mit tees have been
formed in major cities across the na tion to
sup port her, and she says th ev have al rea dy co llected $7,000. Mos t of her trial

Videodiscs- The Newest Medium
by Rick Speer

C in ema wa s born 80 years ago last month , brought
to li fe by two French brothers, Auguste and Louis
Lumie re. Up until that fateful day, visual presenta tio ns were limited to "magic lanterns, " a crude for m
of sli de pro jec tor. But in Janua ry, 1896, a sma ll crowd
was invited to a preview of something new . One of the
guests was Georges Melies , direc tor of a local theatre,
who wrote thi s acco unt some 20 years later ;
"T he other gues ts a nd [ found ourselves before
a little screen .. . and after a few moments a
photograph of the Place Bellecoeur at Lyons
was projected. Somew hat surprised, I just had
time to say to my neighbor: 'They've put us to
a ll this bother for nothing but a magic-lantern
show. I've been doing those for years: Scarcely
were the words o ut of my mouth, when a horse
dragging a truck began to walk toward us, fo llowed by other wagons, then by pedestrians in a word, the w hole life of the street. At this
spectacle we remained open-mouthed, stupefied
and surprised beyond words , . . At the end of
the performance, delirium broke out, and everyone asked himself how it was possible to
obtain such an effect."
Almost the same reaction occurred 70 years later, in
different circumstances. Nam June Paik, the famous
video-artist, obtained a Sony POl'tapak in New York,
two months before they were released commercially .
He hopped in a cab with it and shot all his hour of
tape out the window. That night, when he played
back his results to a group of friends , all were as astonished as Mr. Melies had been. A new era had
dawned.
VIDEODISCS: A NEW ERA
Yet a third era is about to open up , Within the next
year, two rival firms will be releasing different versions of a radica lly new concept : the Videodisc. This
disc is about the same as a phonograph disc in appearance, 12 inches across and made of vinyl, but it is
played on a special unit whose leads attach to your
own TV set (b/w or color). You simply turn on the
set , start the player, and sit back and watch . It is, in
short, a phonograph that plays pictures.
A great deal of excitement has been aroused by
these devices, much the same reaction as when video tape appeared. But tape systems had many inherent
faults that kept them from achieving wide acceptance.
Besides being relatively <;omplex to operate, the units
were quite expensive ($2 - 3,000 for hardware, $20 for
an hour-long tape), Further, tapes couldn't be copied
quickly - they have to be played an hour to copy an

co ntin ued fro m page 1

hour-long original , etc., adding to the expense. A
breakthrough was needed in order to reach the "ho me
users" - it had to be of low cost (both the pla yer and
the software) , had to be simp le, had to conform to
standa rd televisions, and had to be ab le to withstand
usa ge by unskilled, untrained family members.
The di sc solves these problems in two ways; first, it
packs the im ages from about 200 square feet of tape
into less tha n a squa re foo t of material. Secondly, it
can be produced in vo lume like a record , stamped out
in seconds from a master.
HOW VIDEODISCS WORK
Alt hough both upcoming systems manufacture discs
i n the same fas hion, the playback units have
significant di fferences. In the system to be marketed
jointly by Music Corporation of America and Philips,
a large Dutch electronics firm, a low - power laser is
moun ted on a track over the disc. The disc has a spi ra l track on it like a record, but has 13,000 grooves to
the inch (compared to a record's 150 - 200). Thus the
tracks are about two microns (two-millionths of a
m'eter, abou t 1 / 25,400th of an inch) apart. Imbedded
in these tracks are elliptical indentations, varying in
length and in distance from one another. This differing length and distance form the "information" from
which the TV picture is constructed. 'The tiny laser
mounted over the disc on an arm shines a precise
beam down onto the track, as it spins below at 1,500
RPM. The reflected beam from the disc is converted
to an electrica l signal, which is magnified and used to
make the image.
Some of the amazing consequences of this system
are the following : since the laser's tracking is governed by little motors and doesn' t actually ride on the
disc, it can go fast forward , fast reverse, or in slow
motion. Also, it can freeze-frame by sitting in place.
Further, since the laser unit never actually comes into
contact with the disc, there is no track wear and the
discs will last indefinitely. The finely focused beam
also ignores dust, fingerprints, etc. on the thin plastic
coating of the disc surface. And a special feedback signal automatically compensates for any disc warpage.
Cost of this unit is expected to be about $500 (com pared to $2,500 for a video- tape system). Disc costs
will range from $2 - $10, depending on content . MCA
expects to begin marketing the system in the latter
part of 1977,
The system to be marketed by RCA, -on the other
hand, is more similar to a phonograph. Spinning at a
slower rate (450 RPM), it utilizes a phonograph-like
arm with an electrode in place of the standard needle.

• The ba n at the original trial on expert
testimony to the effect that Ind ians are
more seriously distu rbed by ch ild molesting than whites was unjust.
• Wanrow, a member of the Lake Band
of the Co lville Confederated Tribes, was
not afforded her constitutional right to a
trial by her peers, si nce the ju ry that con vic ted her was all -white.
Deputy prosecutor Fred J. Caruso told
the Supreme Court Monday that the Ind 'a n woman's right s were not vi olated by
the use of the tape as evidence again sl
her, beca use the law does not require a
police office r to read a person her righ ts

The fa te of Yvonne Wanrow rests in
the hands of the nine Washington State
Suprem e Court Justices here in Olympia .
Wanrow, 32-year-o ld Co lville Indian
woman , is asking the court to uphold the
Sta te Court of Appea ls verdict which overturned her May 7, 1973 conv iction for
second-degree murder of a man she sa id
attacked her son .
Her team of three lawyers, all women,
argued before the Supreme Court Mon day, February 23, that Wanrow's co nstitu ti onal rights were violated before and during her origina l trial , and that she is entitled to a new trial.
On e of Wanrow's lawyers, Carol Schapira of Seattle, predicted a three- to- six
month delay before the court pronounces
its decision, "Of co urse we're hoping to
"'wi n," she sa id.
An est imated 150 - 200 people packed
the Hall of Ju stice in Olympia during the
proceedings, which ended in slightl y over
an hour. Ca ravans from Spokane, Sea ttl e,
and Tacoma brought Wan row's supporters, a nd ra llies were staged in Seattle o n
several days preceding as well as the day
after the trial.
The case has attracted nationwide attention for its si mila rity to last year's celebrated Nort h Carolina trial in whi ch Joan
Little, a black woman, was acquitted of
murder a fter she stabbed to death a white
jailer who a ttempt ed to rape her. If the
Supreme Co urt rules in Wanrow's favo r,
Wi lliam Kunstler , Little's attorney, w ill
join her defense team for the retria l.

The police kept her
on the phone by asking
questions, and, unknovvn to her, they
tape-recorded the ent ire conversation . . _
Wan row was convicted of ki lling a 62year-o ld Spokane man , William Wesler,
af ter (she cla imed ) he assa ulted her 9year -o ld so n and her babysitter's 10-yearold da ughter. The babysitter's 7- year- old
dau ghter a lso claimed that Wesler had

I

sex ua ll y molested her nearly a year earl ier.
T hereafter, a doctor determined that the
child had a venerea l disease.
Wanrow says she sho t Wesler when he
forcib ly entered her babysitter's home at 5
a.m. in a sta te of drunkenness . She was
on crutches wi th a broken ankle, and she
claimed he ad va nced o n bo th he r a nd her
son . In her panic she a lso shot and
wou nded 26-year- old David Kell y, who
was accompanyin g Wesler .
Wanrow then telephoned the Spokane
Crime Alert numb er and expla in ed to the
police what she had done. They kept her
on the phon e b y ask ing ques tions, and ,
unknown to her, they tape-recorded the
entire co nversa tion (a routine procedure
in ca lls of tha t na ture ). Onl y after her a d mission of th e ki llin g were her rights read
to her.

., _ . . The blood of my
ancestors run through
my veins and through
my children's sacred
bodies . _ . The love I
have for them is greater than any force here
on earth . . . "

The tape w as la ter admitted in the trial
as ev idence against her. A previously
deadlocked jury required just 45 minutes
to reac h a gu ilty verdict after a replaying
of the tape, a nd th ree jurors admitted that
the tape was the decisive fac tor.
Wan row was sen tenced to two concurrent 20 vear pr iso n terms - o ne for
second degree murder a nd the other for
Erst degree assa ult - and five years of
ma ndatory co nfinem ent for use of a deadly weapon . She wo uld serve the sentences

Th e appea ls (Ourt then ruled the tape
inadmissible evidence and gra nted Wan row an o ther tria l. However, a two to one
verdict permit ted th e Spokane prosecut or
to appea l that verdict to the Supreme

As an art ist and a dancer, Wanrow has

Videodiscs- The Newest Medium
by Rick Speer

C in ema wa s born 80 years ago last month , brought
to li fe by two French brothers, Auguste and Louis
Lumie re. Up until that fateful day, visual presenta tio ns were limited to "magic lanterns, " a crude for m
of sli de pro jec tor. But in Janua ry, 1896, a sma ll crowd
was invited to a preview of something new . One of the
guests was Georges Melies , direc tor of a local theatre,
who wrote thi s acco unt some 20 years later ;
"T he other gues ts a nd [ found ourselves before
a little screen .. . and after a few moments a
photograph of the Place Bellecoeur at Lyons
was projected. Somew hat surprised, I just had
time to say to my neighbor: 'They've put us to
a ll this bother for nothing but a magic-lantern
show. I've been doing those for years: Scarcely
were the words o ut of my mouth, when a horse
dragging a truck began to walk toward us, fo llowed by other wagons, then by pedestrians in a word, the w hole life of the street. At this
spectacle we remained open-mouthed, stupefied
and surprised beyond words , . . At the end of
the performance, delirium broke out, and everyone asked himself how it was possible to
obtain such an effect."
Almost the same reaction occurred 70 years later, in
different circumstances. Nam June Paik, the famous
video-artist, obtained a Sony POl'tapak in New York,
two months before they were released commercially .
He hopped in a cab with it and shot all his hour of
tape out the window. That night, when he played
back his results to a group of friends , all were as astonished as Mr. Melies had been. A new era had
dawned.
VIDEODISCS: A NEW ERA
Yet a third era is about to open up , Within the next
year, two rival firms will be releasing different versions of a radica lly new concept : the Videodisc. This
disc is about the same as a phonograph disc in appearance, 12 inches across and made of vinyl, but it is
played on a special unit whose leads attach to your
own TV set (b/w or color). You simply turn on the
set , start the player, and sit back and watch . It is, in
short, a phonograph that plays pictures.
A great deal of excitement has been aroused by
these devices, much the same reaction as when video tape appeared. But tape systems had many inherent
faults that kept them from achieving wide acceptance.
Besides being relatively <;omplex to operate, the units
were quite expensive ($2 - 3,000 for hardware, $20 for
an hour-long tape), Further, tapes couldn't be copied
quickly - they have to be played an hour to copy an

co ntin ued fro m page 1

hour-long original , etc., adding to the expense. A
breakthrough was needed in order to reach the "ho me
users" - it had to be of low cost (both the pla yer and
the software) , had to be simp le, had to conform to
standa rd televisions, and had to be ab le to withstand
usa ge by unskilled, untrained family members.
The di sc solves these problems in two ways; first, it
packs the im ages from about 200 square feet of tape
into less tha n a squa re foo t of material. Secondly, it
can be produced in vo lume like a record , stamped out
in seconds from a master.
HOW VIDEODISCS WORK
Alt hough both upcoming systems manufacture discs
i n the same fas hion, the playback units have
significant di fferences. In the system to be marketed
jointly by Music Corporation of America and Philips,
a large Dutch electronics firm, a low - power laser is
moun ted on a track over the disc. The disc has a spi ra l track on it like a record, but has 13,000 grooves to
the inch (compared to a record's 150 - 200). Thus the
tracks are about two microns (two-millionths of a
m'eter, abou t 1 / 25,400th of an inch) apart. Imbedded
in these tracks are elliptical indentations, varying in
length and in distance from one another. This differing length and distance form the "information" from
which the TV picture is constructed. 'The tiny laser
mounted over the disc on an arm shines a precise
beam down onto the track, as it spins below at 1,500
RPM. The reflected beam from the disc is converted
to an electrica l signal, which is magnified and used to
make the image.
Some of the amazing consequences of this system
are the following : since the laser's tracking is governed by little motors and doesn' t actually ride on the
disc, it can go fast forward , fast reverse, or in slow
motion. Also, it can freeze-frame by sitting in place.
Further, since the laser unit never actually comes into
contact with the disc, there is no track wear and the
discs will last indefinitely. The finely focused beam
also ignores dust, fingerprints, etc. on the thin plastic
coating of the disc surface. And a special feedback signal automatically compensates for any disc warpage.
Cost of this unit is expected to be about $500 (com pared to $2,500 for a video- tape system). Disc costs
will range from $2 - $10, depending on content . MCA
expects to begin marketing the system in the latter
part of 1977,
The system to be marketed by RCA, -on the other
hand, is more similar to a phonograph. Spinning at a
slower rate (450 RPM), it utilizes a phonograph-like
arm with an electrode in place of the standard needle.

Yes, Virginia, there is an academic advisor. Her name is
Mary Moorehead and she has an
office in Lab 1012 from whence
she dispenses help and guidance
to st udents who've become lost
or str~,yed in "the B'ocess Evergreen
Although her main business is
providing academic counseling,
Mary says that isn't the only
thing she does . She does some
work for admissions, such as
ta lking to prospective students,
proVides general student advis ing, works on special pro jects
such as updating the advising
guide and disseminates academic
information.
First and foremost , Mary is an
academ ic advisor. In fact , she's
the only one on campus. "It's
amazing," she says, "how many
people say I'm the on ly one they
can talk to ... or find to talk to!"
Theoretically , faculty are supposed to act as advisors, which
--they did in the college's beginning. "Then they realized that
the faculty would burn out if
they went on like that," Mary
says. The facu lt y just don't
have the time nor the energy to
do double duty as advisors too.
"Th is is part of our rh etoric.
When we began wondering why
it (adv ising) wasn' t being done,
we went and read the bulletin
and saw that the faculty were
supposed to be doing it."
If yo u've ever felt dissa tisfied
with your program or couldn 't
find a program to start wit h,
yo u know that an academic ad'visor would be great to have
arou nd. Apparent ly a lot of peop le are experie nc in g academ ic
problems a s a typica ll y busy day
finds Mary's office stacked up
with non-stop appoin tments. At

MEDIA LOAN
OFFERS HINTS
,Here a re a few helpfu l shortcuts we'd li ke to offer to make
your interactions with Media
Loan easier and more prod uctiv e.
A lw ays bring your Evergreen
identification card and have it
ready to show a Media Loan
staffer. Be sure your I. D . ca rd
has been va lida ted for the current schoo l quarter. You can do
thi s at the Registrar's office.
Don' t forget the proficiency
card. You 'll need one if you
want to check out a camera, a
16 mm. projector or any video
equipment. The profiCiency certification system insures us that
you know how to use and handle the equipment properly.
Be sure to reserve equipment a
few days in advance, especially
if you need a 16 mm. projector,
a reel-to-reel tape recorder , a
camera lens or any video equip ment.
All ow for an extra 15 minutes
to set up video equipment when
you're checking it out. We want
to be certain the equipment is
functioning properly and that
you've remembered how to use it
correctly. You'll need to set it up
again when you bring it back, so
. we can see that it's still operating

the beginning of fall quarter she
set up shop with Leo Daugherty
in Admissions. They saw 150
people in two days . On top of
all that she helps out w ith other
things such as curriculum planning and is constantly attending
meetings on a variety of topics,
, some only vaguely related to
academics.
The most prominent complaint
problem Mary hears is from students who can't find a sponsor
for an indiv idual contract. She
does a lot of research on what
faculty skills are available for
contracts and attempts to match
the st udent up with the most
compatible faculty.
Mary is no stranger to the Evergree n process; she's a former
student herself . She attended two
years of college at the "traditiona
age," got married and had
four children . "I a lways told myself that I was going to go back
someday ." She did. At Evergreen.
" I think it's a good place to
come back to schoo l," she says .
Nationally, the trend is towards
more and more people returning
to school. Mary reports.
Although several other people
have held a position sim il ar to
hers, Mary is the first to be academic advisor under the present
job description. The positi on is
sort of expe rim enta l. to see if 'it
w ill have any effect. Mary is
convinced it i5.
As the on ly academ ic advisor
on campus, Mary is a very busy
person. She says we cou ld use
more fu ll -time adv isors. " If we
could fund it, [ think it would be
neat to hav e a few more. "
If you need academic advising,
Mary can be reached at -6312
between the hours of 8 - 12 and
1 - 5. She'll be more than happy
to help you straighten out your
problems.
There are cer ta in times during
the day w hen users usually don't
have to wait in line to check ou t
equipment. ,Before 10 a.m. or after 4:30 p.m. we normally are
not too overwhelmed. Ord inarily
the noon hour is bustling.
Please keep the blue receipt
that is issued to you w hen you
check out Media Loan equipment. It will help us locate proper records, and help you remem ber when the equipment is due.

LANGUAGE
REGISTRATION
BEGINS
Students who wish to participate in tutorial sessions during
spring term must register by the

Spanish, German, Italian, Norwegian, Chinese, Japanese, and
Hebrew, the coordinator will be
Lynn Struve. Students interested
in these languages must fill out
registration slips (to be signed by

each student's contract faculty
member) not later than March
19. Registration slips and deposi t
envelope' are ava ilable outside

There will be no rock-bottom
beginning tutorials in any lan guage spring quarter. Advancedbeginner, Intermed iate, and Advanced tutorials will be scheduled
on March '19 - 20 so lely on the
basis of numbers of students registered by that time. An absolute
minimum of three credit-earning
students will be necessary to
form a tutorial group. No additions will be made to the tutorial
schedule after March 19 - 20;
but sessions will be cancelled in
the first week of spring term if
registered students fail to make
good on commitments.
Students who will be studying
only a foreign language on a
part-time basis should contract
with Terese Bonin in the case of
French , or with Lynn Struve
(Lib. 3504, 866-6411 / 6423) fo r
the-other languages li sted above.
Students who will be studying a
fore ign language as part of their
work in a program or contract
should negotiate th e terms of
that study with their own primary faculty member. Specifics
of contract con ten t can be
worked out through the first
week of spring quarter, but all
interested st udents must register

REMODELING
PROPOSALS
A controve rsy surroundi ng the
proposed remodel ing for the new
Student Access Cen ter appears to
have been resolved after a meetin g Wednesday be tween Vice President Dean C laba ugh and
the proposed inhabi tants of the
new center.
At that meet in g, the three re modeling plans were discarded in
favor of o ne better suited to the
needs of the Access Center occu pants. That plan is as of yet undetermined.
The th ree remodeling proposals were drawn up by D irector
of Faci lities Jerry Schillinger at
the request of Clabaug h. The
plans would have required rebu ildin g a portion of the first
floor of the Library into a large
"bullpen" type of office to house
the center. They ca ll ed for a

, a ll ow th e cen ter tll
begin functioning and then deter ·
mine what sort of remodeling
would best su it its needs . No
timetable for the move has been
estab li shed at this point but
hopes were to have the center in
opera ti on by September .
Those inv olved were quick to
point out that they weren ' t op posed to the Access Center, just
the physical layout th at was pro posed by Clabaugh . Registrar
Allen, citing the man y cross ca mpu s trips needed to register ,
says that " the best intentions (for
serving students ) a re simply
blocked by physical distance . It
(the Access Cen ter ) will solve
many problems. We'll be able to
provide better services. "

miSSions, the Registrar's Office,
Academ ic Advising, Financial
Aid and Career Planning staffs
were concerned with fhe expense
of the project (estimated at
$50,000) and also fe lt that they
wouldn't be able to function
properly in an office of that design. "There were a tremendous
a mount of unknown s in the
whole equation," said Registrar
Walker Allen, echOing many persons' concerns that the project
hadn' t been thought out enough.
During the meeting C labaugh
held with the concerned staff
Wednesday, he announced that
the three plans had been laid·
aside. The plan in operation now
calls for bringing the various

Yes, Virginia, there is an academic advisor. Her name is
Mary Moorehead and she has an
office in Lab 1012 from whence
she dispenses help and guidance
to st udents who've become lost
or str~,yed in "the B'ocess Evergreen
Although her main business is
providing academic counseling,
Mary says that isn't the only
thing she does . She does some
work for admissions, such as
ta lking to prospective students,
proVides general student advis ing, works on special pro jects
such as updating the advising
guide and disseminates academic
information.
First and foremost , Mary is an
academ ic advisor. In fact , she's
the only one on campus. "It's
amazing," she says, "how many
people say I'm the on ly one they
can talk to ... or find to talk to!"
Theoretically , faculty are supposed to act as advisors, which
--they did in the college's beginning. "Then they realized that
the faculty would burn out if
they went on like that," Mary
says. The facu lt y just don't
have the time nor the energy to
do double duty as advisors too.
"Th is is part of our rh etoric.
When we began wondering why
it (adv ising) wasn' t being done,
we went and read the bulletin
and saw that the faculty were
supposed to be doing it."
If yo u've ever felt dissa tisfied
with your program or couldn 't
find a program to start wit h,
yo u know that an academic ad'visor would be great to have
arou nd. Apparent ly a lot of peop le are experie nc in g academ ic
problems a s a typica ll y busy day
finds Mary's office stacked up
with non-stop appoin tments. At

MEDIA LOAN
OFFERS HINTS
,Here a re a few helpfu l shortcuts we'd li ke to offer to make
your interactions with Media
Loan easier and more prod uctiv e.
A lw ays bring your Evergreen
identification card and have it
ready to show a Media Loan
staffer. Be sure your I. D . ca rd
has been va lida ted for the current schoo l quarter. You can do
thi s at the Registrar's office.
Don' t forget the proficiency
card. You 'll need one if you
want to check out a camera, a
16 mm. projector or any video
equipment. The profiCiency certification system insures us that
you know how to use and handle the equipment properly.
Be sure to reserve equipment a
few days in advance, especially
if you need a 16 mm. projector,
a reel-to-reel tape recorder , a
camera lens or any video equip ment.
All ow for an extra 15 minutes
to set up video equipment when
you're checking it out. We want
to be certain the equipment is
functioning properly and that
you've remembered how to use it
correctly. You'll need to set it up
again when you bring it back, so
. we can see that it's still operating

the beginning of fall quarter she
set up shop with Leo Daugherty
in Admissions. They saw 150
people in two days . On top of
all that she helps out w ith other
things such as curriculum planning and is constantly attending
meetings on a variety of topics,
, some only vaguely related to
academics.
The most prominent complaint
problem Mary hears is from students who can't find a sponsor
for an indiv idual contract. She
does a lot of research on what
faculty skills are available for
contracts and attempts to match
the st udent up with the most
compatible faculty.
Mary is no stranger to the Evergree n process; she's a former
student herself . She attended two
years of college at the "traditiona
age," got married and had
four children . "I a lways told myself that I was going to go back
someday ." She did. At Evergreen.
" I think it's a good place to
come back to schoo l," she says .
Nationally, the trend is towards
more and more people returning
to school. Mary reports.
Although several other people
have held a position sim il ar to
hers, Mary is the first to be academic advisor under the present
job description. The positi on is
sort of expe rim enta l. to see if 'it
w ill have any effect. Mary is
convinced it i5.
As the on ly academ ic advisor
on campus, Mary is a very busy
person. She says we cou ld use
more fu ll -time adv isors. " If we
could fund it, [ think it would be
neat to hav e a few more. "
If you need academic advising,
Mary can be reached at -6312
between the hours of 8 - 12 and
1 - 5. She'll be more than happy
to help you straighten out your
problems.
There are cer ta in times during
the day w hen users usually don't
have to wait in line to check ou t
equipment. ,Before 10 a.m. or after 4:30 p.m. we normally are
not too overwhelmed. Ord inarily
the noon hour is bustling.
Please keep the blue receipt
that is issued to you w hen you
check out Media Loan equipment. It will help us locate proper records, and help you remem ber when the equipment is due.

REMODELING
PROPOSALS
A controve rsy surroundi ng the
proposed remodel ing for the new
Student Access Cen ter appears to
have been resolved after a meetin g Wednesday be tween Vice President Dean C laba ugh and
the proposed inhabi tants of the
new center.
At that meet in g, the three re modeling plans were discarded in
favor of o ne better suited to the
needs of the Access Center occu pants. That plan is as of yet undetermined.
The th ree remodeling proposals were drawn up by D irector
of Faci lities Jerry Schillinger at
the request of Clabaug h. The
plans would have required rebu ildin g a portion of the first
floor of the Library into a large
"bullpen" type of office to house
the center. They ca ll ed for a
single office 34 desks large wit h
one off ice for the Access Center

begin functioning and then deter ·
mine what sort of remodeling
would best su it its needs . No
timetable for the move has been
estab li shed at this point but
hopes were to have the center in
opera ti on by September .
Those inv olved were quick to
point out that they weren ' t op posed to the Access Center, just
the physical layout th at was pro posed by Clabaugh . Registrar
Allen, citing the man y cross ca mpu s trips needed to register ,
says that " the best intentions (for
serving students ) a re simply
blocked by physical distance . It
(the Access Cen ter ) will solve
many problems. We'll be able to
provide better services. "

miSSions, the Registrar's Office,
Academ ic Advising, Financial
Aid and Career Planning staffs
were concerned with fhe expense
of the project (estimated at
$50,000) and also fe lt that they
wouldn't be able to function
properly in an office of that design. "There were a tremendous
a mount of unknown s in the
whole equation," said Registrar
Walker Allen, echOing many persons' concerns that the project
hadn' t been thought out enough.
During the meeting C labaugh
held with the concerned staff
Wednesday, he announced that
the three plans had been laid·
aside. The plan in operation now
calls for bringing the various

Center together as economically

This arm tracks a groove in which are imbedded millions of thin slits, crosswise to the stylus movement.
Aga in , the varyi ng width and spacing of these slits
creates a varying-signal in the pickup electrodE?, which
is amplified to form the picture .
The RCA system is generally less elaborate, with
onl y about 5,000 grooves to the inch and no fast forward, reverse, or freeze -frame. However, the user can
pre-select different portions of the disc, like one can
do with a record. Warp compensation is by a simple
mechanical system, with the stylus moving up a nd
down . Since the electrode does come into contact with
the disc , they will wear out event ually. But RCA's
"Viddisc Division" pres ident, cited in the L.A. Times,
states that the discs will las t for 200 playings at an
"a bsolute minimum, " and probab ly 3 - 500. This system will be out this fall , with player unit s go in g for
about $400 and discs averaging $5 each.

DYLAN SHINES ON IDESIRE'
by Stan Shore
Once a member of the Grateful Dead was talking to Bob
Dylan, The Dead m em ber wa5 explaining to Dylan how incredible it was to perform while on acid: He went on and
on , saying how much more meaningful the music became
and how much more carefully controlled it cou ld be. Finally
the "Dead" man asked Dylan if he had ever played when on
acid. Dylan looked straight at him and replied, "Yeah , but I
don't think much of it. It throws off my timing. "
Dylan's new album, DESIRE, is a superb encore to Blood
on the Tra cks, Whereas the latter album derived most of its
strength from an introverted derisive tone and from letting
us touch his wounds, DESIRE is a lighter album, more concerned with the world than with Dylan . It is filled with surprisingly melodious ballads which are, as Allen Ginsberg describes them, like powerful and compact short stories. But
more than anything else, it is the professionalism of the
a lbum that makes it shine .
Dylan, now 34, seems finally to have matured. In DESIRE
he expresses a wide range of feelings without his usual sarcasm. Also, he has moved from idealized and sometimes
heavy handed ballads like Ja ck of Hearts or Ballad of a
Thin , Man to specific flesh and blood stories like Joey ,
which is about the late mobster Joey Gallo, and Hurricane,
which is about a boxer, Rubin "Hurricane" Carter.
Hurricane provides a good example of Dylan's development. It is a song strikingly like The Death of Poor Hatie
Carroll. The latter song, from one of his first albums, describes the slaying of a black woman whose white murderer
had to serve but a token sentence. Hurricane deals with specifics and Dylan voices a personal intelligent outrage with
no signs of coyness or sarcasm.
Similarly, in Sara Dylan mentions the name of his wife
for the first time. He reaches back to tum fiction into fact,

Coffee. In Isis he adopts - oddly - the Egyptian god of
motherhood, while watching out for her husband , Osiris,
the god of Death .
Perhaps my favorite song on the album, though , is Black
' Diamond Bay, which in its own way draws a funny con trast between Dylan and - of all people - Walter Cronkkite. Dylan sets the scene in a South American hotel , each
line sketching out another character: there's a gambler, of
course, who's losing, a sophisticated hotel clerk, and a mysterious Greek who commits suicide. All of these characters
are caught up in an earthquake that sets off a volcano destroying the city - and killing them all.
But then , just as the song seems to be over, Dylan shift s
the scene to Los Angeles where he hears of the earthquake
on the news, "listening to 01' Cronkite." But Cronkite fails
to move his listener and Dylan comments:
"Didn't seem like much was happening, so I turned it
off and
went to grab another beer , . .
Every time you turn around it's another hard luck story
that you're gonna hear ... "
Dylan seems consciously to be contrasting Cronkite's supposedly professional reporting with his (Dylan's ) own storytelling method .
The difference between the two strikes at the heart of this
album. Dylan's version may not have a factual inciden~ in it
- but the feeling is completely true. Cronkite's or. the other
hand is all fact, but the feeling is entirely false,
On the last album, Blood on the Tracks, in Tangled Up in
Blue, Dylan says, "Lord knows I've paid some dues coming
In DESIRE, Dylan shifts from one culture to another - from through," In this album, he points to the one reward for
one idea of class to another - going from a Mexican peas- paying those dues: the ability to see the world clearly, with ant in Durango, to a Hebraic gypsy in One More Cup of out pretensions or dishonesty.

say ing plain ly that Sari Eyed Lady of the Lowlands was for
Sara. Dy lan is old anJ brave enough to 'mention names.
This maturity is reflected in his concern for professional ism - for work of undeniable integrity - which not only
shows in the musical quality of the album but also as a
theme of the album. Dylan sees his job, apparently, as an
E!al poet , a "mi nstrel. " It is a job he does undeniably well.
Hi~ work as an oral poet 'is most apparent in 'the two
longest songs of the album: Joey and Hurricane. At first
glance the two men, Rubin Carter and Joey Gallo , seem to
have little in common . Carter deserves our sympathy because it seems he was, as Dylan says, "Unfairly tried, " We
can understand his refrain, "To see him so obviously
framed I couldn't help but make me feel ashamed! to live in
a land where justice is a game," But, one hastens to add,
what sympathy can you feel for Joey Gallo, a Mafia boss?
The answer is clear when Dylan has Joey throw the most
virulent put-down he can conceive at some hostages, "He
called them 'amateurs,'" Dylan sings, Whatever Joey did,
Dylan seems to be saying, he did it with class, with professionalism . The men who killed Gallo did so when he was
eating with his family, an action that had no class at all.
You don't have to agree with Joey and his life, but its internal integrity is undeniable, So Dylan, staying within
Gallo's frame of mind, ends the song w'th strong and Catholic words, portraying God as a Mafia boss :
"Someday if God's in Heaven, overlooking his preserve
I know the men who shot him down, will get what they
deserve ,"

Unfor tunately a younger member of the aud ience took it upon
himself to do an unnatural act

Coffee. In Isis he adopts - oddly - the Egyptian god of
motherhood, while watching out for her husband , Osiris,
the god of Death .
Perhaps my favorite song on the album, though , is Black
' Diamond Bay, which in its own way draws a funny con trast between Dylan and - of all people - Walter Cronkkite. Dylan sets the scene in a South American hotel , each
line sketching out another character: there's a gambler, of
course, who's losing, a sophisticated hotel clerk, and a mysterious Greek who commits suicide. All of these characters
are caught up in an earthquake that sets off a volcano destroying the city - and killing them all.
But then , just as the song seems to be over, Dylan shift s
the scene to Los Angeles where he hears of the earthquake
on the news, "listening to 01' Cronkite." But Cronkite fails
to move his listener and Dylan comments:
"Didn't seem like much was happening, so I turned it
off and
went to grab another beer , . .
Every time you turn around it's another hard luck story
that you're gonna hear ... "
Dylan seems consciously to be contrasting Cronkite's supposedly professional reporting with his (Dylan's ) own storytelling method .
The difference between the two strikes at the heart of this
album. Dylan's version may not have a factual inciden~ in it
- but the feeling is completely true. Cronkite's or. the other
hand is all fact, but the feeling is entirely false,
On the last album, Blood on the Tracks, in Tangled Up in
Blue, Dylan says, "Lord knows I've paid some dues coming
In DESIRE, Dylan shifts from one culture to another - from through," In this album, he points to the one reward for
one idea of class to another - going from a Mexican peas- paying those dues: the ability to see the world clearly, with ant in Durango, to a Hebraic gypsy in One More Cup of out pretensions or dishonesty.

say ing plain ly that Sari Eyed Lady of the Lowlands was for
Sara. Dy lan is old anJ brave enough to 'mention names.
This maturity is reflected in his concern for professional ism - for work of undeniable integrity - which not only
shows in the musical quality of the album but also as a
theme of the album. Dylan sees his job, apparently, as an
E!al poet , a "mi nstrel. " It is a job he does undeniably well.
Hi~ work as an oral poet 'is most apparent in 'the two
longest songs of the album: Joey and Hurricane. At first
glance the two men, Rubin Carter and Joey Gallo , seem to
have little in common . Carter deserves our sympathy because it seems he was, as Dylan says, "Unfairly tried, " We
can understand his refrain, "To see him so obviously
framed I couldn't help but make me feel ashamed! to live in
a land where justice is a game," But, one hastens to add,
what sympathy can you feel for Joey Gallo, a Mafia boss?
The answer is clear when Dylan has Joey throw the most
virulent put-down he can conceive at some hostages, "He
called them 'amateurs,'" Dylan sings, Whatever Joey did,
Dylan seems to be saying, he did it with class, with professionalism . The men who killed Gallo did so when he was
eating with his family, an action that had no class at all.
You don't have to agree with Joey and his life, but its internal integrity is undeniable, So Dylan, staying within
Gallo's frame of mind, ends the song w'th strong and Catholic words, portraying God as a Mafia boss :
"Someday if God's in Heaven, overlooking his preserve
I know the men who shot him down, will get what they
deserve ,"

DISPUTE OVER BIOCIDE USE HEATS UP
by C urt Milton
Diazinon. Parathion. Chlorodane.
2,4-D.
Alt hough they sound like the names of
exotic diseases or the multi-s ided· geometric shapes you had to learn in grade
schooL these words are actuall y the patented labels for chem ical pesticides. The
question of whether or not these chemicals are being used on camp us, and to
what ex tent they pose a danger to humans
and an imals, has been raised in recent
weeks by students Chris D lugokenski and
John Peard .
In a presentation to the Environmental
Advisory Committee Feb. 4, Dlugokenski
charged that 2, 4-D had been sprayed on
certain areas of the campus in the summer
of 1975 despite an earlier agreement be- tween Vice-President Dean Clabaugh and
Director of Facilities Jerry Schillinger not
to use the chemical. Peard described what
he fee ls are the bad effects of the pesticides on the env ironment and wildlife .
D1ugokenski listed the chemical biocides
he found on the shelves at faci lities, categorizing 2, 4-D as a "mutagen," and chI orodane as both a "carcinogen" and "embryo- toxic." Bill Kennedy, grounds maintenance supervisor, calls those claims "unfounded" and says that " I haven't been
able to find where he (Chris) got his
source of information (about the pesticides). " Kennedy says that D ick Maxwell,
a chemica l specia list with Washington
State University and the state's leading
pesticide expert has also never heard of
these alleged effects.
On ly two people on campus have the
necessary state license to apply pesticides .
Kennedy is one and Bill Mobbs, another
grounds employee, is the other. Both have
att ended various pesticide schools and
passed the sta te test to get their applicator's licenses. Kennedy says that Wash ington's laws regarding pesticides and their

usage are among the toughest in the nation and were used as a model for the
federal regu lations.
Angered by the charges being leveled in
his direction, Kennedy made a reply at a
meeting of th!(EAC Feb . 10 and in an interview w ith the Journal.
Concerning the charge that 2, 4-D is
be ing used for tansy weed control. Kennedy replied that he has never sprayed for
tansy, a plant toxic to cattle. Last summer
he did emp loy student help to remove the
weed, by hand , at $2 an hour. Total cost:
$1,800. "I could have sprayed the whole
campus for tha t amount I" Kennedy remarked . •
Jerry Schillinger t o ld th e Sound i:-,g
Board Feb . 18 that he had reached a compromise with the EAC last spring which
would allow continued spraying of 2, 4-D
on the lawn areas and the mats along th e '
highway. However , Schillinger can't find
a written copy of the agreement.
Of the chemicals listed by Dlugokenski .
several are no longer in use, either having
been taken off the market by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or ruled
to be too dangerous and unneeded by Bill
Kennedy.
While speaking before the Sounding
Board Feb. 11, Dlugokenski claimed that
chlorodane, diazinon a nd sevin were in
use on campus. Kennedy says that just
the opposite is true; that these chemical s
as well as ma lat hion have been taken off
th e market by the EPA and are no longer
in use at Evergreen. The sevin has never
been used and remaining stocks of the
four chemicals will probably be turned
over to the University of Washington.
There is some 2, 4, 5-T around but Kennedy is inclined to use it in small amounts
if at a ll.
Other chemicals to be used, according
to Kennedy, all are rated as safe by the

EPA, include: 2. 4-D - to be used on
39 .54 acres of turf; Amitrole- T - 5.43
acres of shoulders and anywhere grass or
weeds are growing through cracks in asphalt or concrete; Princep 80W - same
as Amitrole- T; Paraquot ~ lines on ballfield; Tersan LSR and Tersan 1991 both on turf grass as needed; KXL - for
insect and fungi control on ornamentals
and trees; and Caceron - for general
weed control in planting areas.
The possibility of using biological controls, such as the cynabar moth to destroy
tansy, was raised by Dlugokenski but
Ke nn edy says they're too expensive. The
cynabar moth can't survive in the Olympia ;!,-~a 3!ld Kennedy e$timates it would
take six people working full-time six
months to clean all the weeds off the
campus. There are only five people on
Kennedy's staff. Under state regulations,
the grounds department should be employing 25 people to cover the 250 to 300
acres of developed area on campus.
Basing his calculations on the 57 inches
of rain that fell on Evergreen last year ,
Kennedy says that the final dilution for
all pesticides applied on campus was .186
parts per million.
Is the use of biocides on campus safe?
Bill Kennedy says "yes" but others disagree. At the Sounding Board meeting
Wednesday, Dean Clabaugh announced
that he is gathering a group of concerned
persons to formulate a policy on the use
of bioc ides. The group will try to solve
one of the stumbling blocks of past exper ience with biocide use agreements by set- '
ting the po licy down in writing. Previous
agree ments were usually made verbally
which meant they were easily forgotten
or, if they were remembered at all, were
remembered differently by different people .
To spray or not to spray ... the biocide debate cont inues.

NADER'S BRAINCHILD

Public Interest Research at Evergreen
by Ti Locke
At Evergreen, we have a strong tendency to drift off into a world of vegetarian communes and woodsy retreats while
generally ignoring the outside world. We
welcome the ivory - towered isolation of
seminars, where we wrestle with the
wrongs of our world.
What can students do? Plenty, if they
have a PIRG (Public Interest Research
Group) to work through. For instance,
INPIRG (Indiana) won a major battle in
w hich they blocked a proposed ten-cent
charge for directory assistance. MaryPIRG (Maryland) banned an industrial
salt containing asbestos that was being
sold as table salt. OSPIRG (Oregon) and
ot hers have taken action against the sales
of dangerous toys.

NADER'S BRAINCHILD

---_._---------------------------'

,.

PIRG groups are the brainchild of
consumer advocate Ralph Nader. During the fall and summer of 1970, Nader

and his associates traveled to over 40
college campuses with the PIRG proposal. The essence of the proposal was
that students tax themselves a nominal
sum in order to hire a group of professionals to help them seek solutions to

public interest problems.
The money the students taxed themselves would help pay the professionals
and fund research projects. In turn the
professionals - who would include grad
students in medicine or law, for instance
- would help provide the continuity for
PIRG groups from year to year.
OREGON FIRST TO RESPOND
Students in Oregon were the first to re -

spond to Nader's proposal. By January,
1971, signa tures of over 50 % of the stu dents in state colleges , four private
schools and four community colleges had
been obtained . By signing a PIRG petition
students pledged a refundable $11 qtr. (or
$1.50 / semester) fee to be added to their

stantial" amount of the university's total
revenue would have to be used toward
lobbying efforts to lose tax-exemption .
But the OSPIRG funds amounted to less
than one-tenth of one percent of th e
school's total revenues. The OSPIRG
measure passed .

usual tuition payment.
However, the Oregon State Board of
Education was worried about using the
university as a collection agency, and
wondered if the university would lose its
tax-exempt status because of OSPIRG activities .
It was decided that although the university acted as the collection agency and
had possession of the money, OSPIRG
had the control.
And , in order for the college to lose its
tax-exempt status, first it would have to
be assumed that the college had control
over the money. Then, OSPIRG would
have to use all of its funds toward lobbving activities. A law states that a "sub-

THE FUNDING
For a PIRG to operate efficiently, the
signatures and monetary support of
70,000 students is needed. Few campuses
are that big, so many campuses band together to form a state-wide PIRG .
In Washington, the University of Wash ington (UW), Washington State Univer sity (WSU) and Western Washington
State College (WWSC) have been having
WashPIRG petition drives.
WWSC and WSU have completed their
petition drives, while the UW is nearing
the end of theirs. All three schools have
asked for an additional $2 to be added to
tuition fees. These schools are also having
