Nuclear Symposium Concludes at Kingdol11e
by Dan Gorham
"Target Seattle" concluded it's nine-day
symposium against nuclear weapons with
a "celebration of survival festival" last
Saturday night at the Kingdome. An estimated 15,00:> attended the program which
included noted speakers from the fields of
medi cine, politics, academia, religion and
show business.
The "celebration of survival" was Target
Seattle's final event and marked the end
of an enormous volunteer project which
started over a year ago. Target Seattle
originated as the brainchild of a few
prominent citizens who sensed an immediate urgency to organize an educational conference to better inform the
publi c about the dangers of the escalating
arms race.
It was no small task. The nine-day
symposium consisted of over 25 individual
events , ranging from a ten kilometer race
to film s, lectures, seminars and debates.
Even with a totally volunteer staff the
project's budget exceeded $150,00:>, the
majority of which was raised through
individual donation s.
Saturday's program hosted a cast of
nation ally and loca lly renowned fi gures
who gathered to discu ss the issues surrounding nuclear arm s and offer suggestions for public auction.
Prominent names in cluded Dr. Helen
Caldi cott , National President of Physicians
for Social Responsibility; former Watergate Special Prosec utor Archibald Cox,
National Chairman of Common Cause;
and Dr. Giovanni Cost igan, noted hi storian
and professor emeri tus, Uni versity o f
Washington . Entertainment was provided
by the Persuasio ns and the Seattle-based
band The Crustaceans.
The prin cipl e organizers of Target
Seattl e were prominent citizens who had
little or no background in activism or in
arranging an event of this scale. Walter
Straley, Chairman , Target Seattle Kingdome event, is the former president of
Pacific Northwest Bell and senior vicepresident of AT&T. Now retired, Straley
said : " I plan to spend the rest of my life

I n many respects, Seattl e is a spearhead
city in the citizens campaign against
nuclear arms. Perhaps the urgen cy of the
situation is compounded by the city's
precarious geographic location withlll the
military complex. In any respect, Seattle
is facing up to the realities of the escalating arms race and refuses to stand idly by.
According to the Seattle Tim es , Sea ttl e
Mayor Charles Royer recently o ffered to
return federal funds designed to aid the
city in planning for emergencies. includ ing nuclear di sasters . In a letter last week

Evans Speaks at Target Seattle
"'T1
ill
....
by Dan Gorham
Evergreen's president, Dan Evans, said
that the continuation of a forceful citizen's crusade against nuclear weapons
remai ns the most viable means to end ing
the arms race.
Evans made these remarks in his speech
last Friday to a Target Seattle audience.
It was the eighth day of Target Seattle's
nine-day symposium addressing various
them~s related to the nuclear arms race .
Evans spoke at length about the potential
political power of citizen's · action groups
working towards a com mon goal " Per-
sonal persuasion or a personal statement
is useful, but it simply pales when compared with politi ca l involvement," Evans
stated.
"Citizen's Responsibilities for Preventing
Nuclear War" was the theme of Evans'
address, presented at the Plymouth Congregational Church in Seattle. Evans displayed an unrelenting fa ith in the representative system and placed the responsibility for political change in the hands of
all c itizens . He strongly advocated employing the power of the politi cal vote to
recrui t, e l ect and persuad e politi c al
parties into adopting a strong anti-nuclear
forum . "F und am entally . we are not
going to be successful in what we seek, in
terms of peace, unless we can convince,
and convince well, a majority of those
that hold publi c office," Evans said .
When pressed fo r his personal position
regarding nuclear di sarmament, Evans sa id
t hat an immed iate unilateral freeze would
be too dangerou s: " The rew ard s would be
good, but the risks would be too high ."
Instead , Evans calls for a serious effort by
the U.S. to ope n negotiations with the
Soviets and work ou t a bi lateral agreem ent. " To be effective , it must be
adopted from both sides . We must push
our leaders to the table to negotiate a
nucl ear freeze ," Evans maintained .
The audience consisted of some 300
people, a large percentage of wh ich were
se'1ior citi ze ns seek in g ways to become
more invol ved in the nuclear arms issue .
Evans directed their enthusiasm towards
an active role in the political arena. Hi <
primary emphasis was for ci tizens to get
involved politi ca ll y, and to get at and
influence those who represent you
Evans was optimisti c that citi zen involvement in the nuclear disarmament
crusade will eventual Iv affec t national
po li cy : "The current concern w hi ch is
bein g expressed in so many ways is just
the front edge of w hat is growlllg in to a
larger and larger wave . It most certainly
will reflect itself in future elections as the
fu ll force of people's distaste , fpar if you
wi ll , concern and logic or emotion . all
aimed at o ne overwhelming desire whic h
is shared by people around the planet.
which is to give us a chance for
tomorrow."

Early thi s summer, audio staff coordinator Ken Wilhelm wa lked into Media Loan
w ith the announcement that the Evergreen
Album Pro ject had been kill ed for the
198 2-83 d( ddellli c year
Dur ing the spring it had been tentat ively dec ided by the deans that audio
studi es wou ld be discontinued . Thi s was
shortl y after the third Evergreen album
had been released. The reasons given
were th at Ken Wilhelm had too much
responsibili ty teaching and controlling
,tudio use combin ed with his other duties,
overwork at media loan, and t he fear th at
people studying audio were getting techni ca l training too specia li zed for a liberal
arts college.
The Intention wa s to begin a comprehen si ve program comb ining music promotion, musi c theory, and music aestheti cs with the audio training . Due to
budget cuts, fa culty with experience to
run a program of this nature could not
be found .
A group of concerned audio students
took . i t upon them se lves to try to find a
sponsor for a 1982-83 album project. Chri ,
Cates and Jeff Brutan began with a written prorosal for an audio program under
the assumption that the studios would not
rea ll y be closed . Many students expressed
an Interest and signed a petition in favor ,
but w hen it became clear tha t there were
no fund s to <; upport suc h a program , thi s
movemen t rail out of steam
Afte r C hri ~ dlld Jeft etfecti vely gave in
to th e Jdmini str a tive cll'c i sion , Bi ll
Eiseman and John Baccigaluppi took over
as prospective album producers, Toward
the end of May, they composed a letter
to the deans , pointing out the unfairness
of this decision to juniors cu rrently pur, ui ng careers in audio, and enumerated
mi slead ing sta teme nts in Evergreen ' s
advertising and the 1982-83 undergraduate
cata log in hopes of persuading them to
change their minds. Were this a private
school the catalog would be cons idered a
legal document, but since it is a col lege
dependent on state funding, Evergreen is
not legally bound to provide anything
promised in t he cata log.
When thi s tactic proved unsuccess ful ,
another proposa l was written by Bill and
joh n, which ex pl ained how the album
proj ect could be resumed withou t unreasonable demands on Ken Wi Ihelm's
time, and avoiding the past problems of
irresponsibl e and unsupervised use of the
studios.
Thi s was followed by a meeting with
Bud joh ansen to try to salvage the album
project without a concurrent audio program . Bud agreed to sponsor the album in
conjunct ion with hi s program, " An American MusicaL" Th is was to involve Peter
Randlette as technica l advisor, and Don
Chan as mu sica l advisor, time permitting.
Shortly after thi s meeting Don Chan
wi thdr ew hi s support , "A n American
M usica l" was ca nce lled, part ly because
the resident composer position occupied
by Stephen Scott had been froz en, and
Ken's sub,equent announcement made
the issue appear closed . Peter Randlette
admits that he, also, would not have been
able to fulfill his obligations without other
academi c support
In mid-june john and Bill had spoken
to provost Byron Youtz and Dean Barbara
Smith, and despite a petition with 300
signatures, we re courteously told that the
album project would not be cons idered as
a v i ab l e means of continuing audio
studies at TESC for 1982-83. As a last
attempt they wrote a letter to Dan Evans
on june 14 requesting a personal appointment Thirty-<:>ne days later, july 15, they
received a ca ll from hi s secretary informing them that Evans did not have time to
see them.
On july 29, Dean John H, Perkins put
out an official memo on studio access
and th e album project It mentioned that
the " . . . enthusiasm and energy of students interested in audio was gratifying,
but what was not realized adequately was
that the col lege's audio offerings were
being created out of the hide of Ken
Wilhelm , or the vacuum of inadequate
instruction and guidance in the use of
the. studios,"
The memo goes on to explain that the
three four-t rack studios will be available
to people on individu al contracts or in
Ken's modules under the same conditions
as last year, that there wi ll be no 8- or
16-track studio access whatsoever and no
album due to lack of staff support, but
promises that the deans " . . . will initiate
immediate efforts to prepare a use plan
for the 8- and 16-track studios for the
long term"
When asked about these long-teim
plans, john Perk ins had t his to say : " I am
not terribly optimistic for this year, Qut
we are looking for cons ultants to help us
with a long-term pl an, This will iQclude
nnri culum, and staff and faculty support "
As far as Ken 's growing involvement in
the album project being a contributing
factor, Perkins stated: " It took a while for
us to figure out what was happening."
A cooperative program with UW was
considered, but their Chief of Audio Staff
res igned, This possibility is sti ll being considered . Dean Perkins also said: " If we get
back to four or five music faculty like
we should have, these probl ems will be
considerably al leviated."
Regarding these statements, Pet er
Randlette had this to say: " There is the
talent on this campus to teach audio recording and multi-track engineering in an
interdisciplinary context There is a perception that the art of multi-track composing and audio recording doesn't have
the potential to be incorporated into an
interdisciplinary program, whereas in fa ct ,
it is an ideal tool for this purpose. "
Ken Wilhelm is hopefu l about the reopening of the studios for the coming
academic year, and speaks of developing
a two-year program com bining audio with
expressive arts, but says it will depend on

The ·Duality of Evergreen Budgets
by lillian Parks
The basic answer to the assignment is
simple Evergreen has two completely
separate budgets. One is the operating
budget which includes class offerings and
faculty employment. The other is the
cap ital budget which includes all costs of
construction (e.g., track and remodeling).
Apparently, it is "written in granite" that
money funds for one budget cannot be
transferred to the other. That is why,
despite cutbacks in faculty and enrollment, one can see construction projects
in progress on the campus .
It seemed like a simple assignmentfind out why Evergreen is building a track
field and remodeling offices at a time of
large budget cuts in higher education.
After weeks of "s logging" through 280
pages of detailed budget information, profus ions of notes and interviews with Les
Eldridge, Director of Community Relation s, and M ik e Bigeiow, Executive
Assistant for Business, my interest and
enthusiasm for budgetary accounting has
been totally negated . But perhaps, some
~ tud e nts will be interested in the fpw tidbits of information I've been able to
garner
Th e ca pital budget for Evergreen is

cost to complete the ~occer field is
$580,000. The cost for a gym design is
$270,000. For the sixth time, Evergreen is
requesting $6,000,000 to construct a gym
in the 1983 to 1985 cycle.
The college's operating budget is
financed by state general revenues, tuition
revenue and grant and contract funds .
Evergreen requests a specific amount
based on a student enrollment formula,
but again, the legislature is the final
decision-maker. The operating budget
funds instruction, public service, academic
administration, the library, student services, institutional support, plant maintenance and operations and sponsored
researc h and programs. The actual
expenditures or requests of Evergreen's
operating budgets are: 1979 to 1981,
$24,000,000; 1981 to 1983, $27,936,000;
and 1983 to 1985, $37,427,000 Currently,
Evergreen has 392 FTE staff positions (including faculty and part-time positions)
and an enrollment of 2300. The budget
cuts for its operating budget were : 1981
to 1982, $1,037,000 and 1982 to 1983,
$2,257,000.
Evergreen opened in 1%7 with facilities

redu ced staff, facility access, library
acquisitions, building and ground maintenance, counseling and health services,
custodial care and equipment acquisitions.
Most equipment at Evergeen is over ten

user fees for admission and graduation

In its projections for the 1983 to 1985
budget, Evergreen is requesting items that
will be of interest to the current student
population. It is asking to start its Master
of Environmental and Energy Studies program in September, 1984, with a possible
enrollment of 30. It is hoping to rebuild
its s~udent er.~()lIment to 2400 in 1984 and
1985. Also, Evergreen is asking for a wordprocessing system for program secretaries

For those wonderi ng about upcoming
thea ter productiorts, I'm pleased to report
there is one in the works . Lone Star, a
three-character, one-act play by James
Mc Clure is slated for production in late
November.
The play concerns Roy, a Vietnam
veteran whose been home two years . Roy
has since settled back into the same life
he left (drives the same car, tell s the same
stories, gets drunk on Friday night, etc.),
his war experience being the only thing
that has broken the dull pattern of his
life. The play is about Roy's dealing with
the changes in himself and the life he
sees around him. It is darkly humorous,
powerfu ll y written and it shou ld be a
big success.
The production company (Formed
exclusively for thi s play on a cluster contract) is headed by Lewis Pratt, assisted by
Dona DeZube, Evan Richland, Ian
Jamieson, and Micheal Lamb, with theater
magnate David Malcolm filling the rol e of
executive producer. It should be noted
that $250 of Lone Star's $750 budget was
put up by the students themselves .
Director Lewis Pratt had this to say
about the production: "The play is starting to come together. We're sti ll looking
for a few volunteers to help smooth things
oul." If you're interested, contact Lewis
in the scene shop, or call him at 866-6077 .

Take one portly opera singer riding on
a wave of popularity, add a bad script,
lots of romantic cinematography, throw
in a food fight and the result is "Yes
Giorgio," a lightweight romantic-comedy
featuring the film debut of operatic
heavyweight Luciano Pavarotti. As you
might have guessed, this movie is only
entertaining when Pavarotti is singing
opera. The rest of the film is built haphazardly around his singing.
Make no mistake about it, Pavarotti has
an incredible voice (the man's lungs must
be the size of footballs!), but he is not an
actor. Director Frank Schaffner could have
saved a lot of money and time by merely
filming the great Pavarotti in performance.
Instead he gives him a job playing a
thoroughly unsympathetic character who
also happens to be the world's greatest
tenor.
The story concerns Giorgio Fini, a world
renowned opera star who leaves his wife
and kids in Italy for a concert tour of the
States. At his first stop Giorgio loses his
voice and a beautiful throat specialist,
played by Kathryn Harrold, is called in.
Giorgio, arrogant sexist that he is, refuses
to let her have a look at his throat. The
opera star's manager, prayed by a miscast
Eddie Albert, finally gets him to relent.

whose current ratio with faculty is one to

$500,000 to install a new academic computer system in the next biennium. Their
justifications are: the current system is '
ten years old and Hewlett Packard, the
manufacturer, will be stopping support
service; the system is working at total
capacity with 100 terminals and 40% student body usage; students need the computer languages PASCAl, COBOL and
FORTRAN for academic study instead of
just BASIC.
With Governor Spellman predicting
another possible 10% cut in higher education funding in the 1983-1985 biennium and
with a new legislature currently being
formed, this winter's legislation should be
interesting to follow to see if Evergreen
will receive its requests.
As it turns out there is nothing physically wrong with his throat, his failed
voice is the result of a psychological
reaction to a phone call he received from
the New York Met. Seven years earlier
Giorgio had a disastrous performance at
the Met and he steadfastly refuses to ever
play there again. The speCialist tricks
ci'orgio by telling him he's the victim of
some fictitious disease. She gives him a
placebo and his voice comes back better
than ever. Naturally Giorgio falls for the
voluptuous doctor and we follow them
through their on-again , off-again affair
that climaxes with Giorgio's triumphant
return to the Met and the pretty doctor's
teary-eyed exit during the aria.
The director must have thought that
what was lacking romantically in the
script could be made up for in cinematography. So what we get is lots of long,
panoramiC shots of the elegant mansions
that our couple stay in . At one point, they
float across the California wine country in
a colorful balloon while Giorgio belts out
a love song. This is a brilliant exercise in
schmaltz .
"Yes Giorgio" is currently playing at the

Music Review
New Albums Relieve
bv David Gaff
Two important records have just been
released by two of the elite of art
musicians. Peter Gabriel~ s fourth album
(excluding his German translation of Peter
Gabriel III) has taken about two years in
the developing and making. His new
album, much to the surprise of his fans, is
abstractly called, Peter Gabriel. Peter
Gabriel IV should follow Gabriel's German
LP in success, originality and overall
excellence.
Romeo Void, San Francisco's prime art
band, has just released their third record,
Benefactor. Benefactor is their first release
on a major label , as Columbia Records
recently made a deal with San Francisco's
independent 415 Records for distribution.
These two albums should eventually
find their way into many peoples' lists of
best albums from 1982. Both records,
especially the lyrics, are intelligent and
not easi ly understood. The records themse lves are a collection of good or great
songs with not much filler.
Romeo Void's album sounds better the
second or third time through. This contrasts with Gabriel's album, which is
immediately appealing. One reason for
this is that Peter Gabriel IV does not have
as many peaks and valleys as Benefactor
has. There is 'inare of a coherence and
sense of flow with Peter Gabriel/V. One
way that Romeo Void could have avoided
this is to not release Never Say Never
again . Never Say Never is the one song
that broke Romeo Void onto many FM
stations . This song was released almost
ten months ago, and is a bit dated by
now, not to mention that it had been cut
by almost three minutes. One wonders if
Never Say Never was included because
the group had no more ma,terial, or
because of label demands . The latter is
probably more reali stic.
Even though the lyrics of Romeo Void
and Gabriel are intelligent, the sounds of
the voices are more important to the song
than what the words are actually saying.
Both Iyall (singer, Romeo Void) and
Gabriel could easily make the music
sound secondary to the singing. They
both realize, however, that this would not
reflect beneficially on the overall sound
that they desire. Through this realization,
they try to use their voices as if they were
an instrument, and meld the musi c into a
tight structure of general equality and
• interdependence.
Peter Gabriel has basically the same
band for his new album as he had on his
last album, although Peter Gabriel IV
does not include the set of stars that the
previous album contained. He is even
without star producer Steve Lillywhite.
Gabriel co-produced this album. The only
name musician on the new album is Tony
Levin . Tony Levin appeared on Gabriel's
last album, and has also played in Paul
Simon's One Trick Pony band . He is
presently occ upied playing bass, stick and
doing background vocals for King Crimson.
Peter Gabriel/V is a very ethereal
album, especially the first song, Rhythm
of the Heat . This song must be played
loud and with as much bass as possible to
be fully appreciated. Drums and percussion form the core of the song with
Gabriel' s vocals weaving in and out. If
you don't like this song, one of the year's
best, you probablY won't like anything
else on the album.
The other really great song on the
album is Wallflower. This song is very
quiet, soft and pleasant. A simple and
quick compari son might be any Chris
Williamson song. The rest of the songs on
the album are good but not superior, as is
the case wit h Wallflower and Rhythm of
the Heat.
Romeo Void has been one of the
pleasant su rpri ses of the past year and a
half. They have yet to release a bad song,
and their songwriting output is exceptional.
During their first recording, they
examined their produ ct and thought of
how to shape it into a work of art. It's a
Condition , the fi rst album, saw the band
using extremes. The emphasis was on
drums, vocals, and to a lesser degree
saxophone. Guitar and bass became the
lost in struments of the band .

Commentary
Approval of Endrin Ignores Long-Term Costs
by Erin Kenny
Recently, amidst much controversy, the
pesticide Endrin was approved for use in
Washington state apple orchards. The
orchard owners argued that Endrin is
essential to kill mice which destroy apple
trees by nibbling on the bark .
The Audubon Society had sought a
statewide ban of Endrin based on evidence that the chemical was contaminating soil and water supplies and poisoning game and predatory birds. Use of
Endrin has been restricted by the federal
government since it was proven to be a
possible cause of cancer and birth defects.
Endrin has been banned in Europe and
New York state.
In light of this ruling, it seems doubtful
that the Department of Agriculture
l D of A) is acting in the best interests of
it s citi Lens . It appears that the D of A
acted irresponsibly toward citi zens by
approvi ng the use of a carcinogenic pesticide w hil e admitting it may be a health
haz ard. The D of A also deprived orchard
owners of valuabl e information by rej ec ting a proposal for a cost-effectiveness
stud y to determine whether the use of
Endrin is ec onomi'ca lly justified . ObViously, the D of A is acting as if it
believes the benefits of the pesticide outwei gh its disadvantages. Unfortunately,
there are no studi es to support thi s view.
Endrin is the most toxic of a group of
pes ticides known as chlorinated hydrocdrbo ns . " Endrin makes DDT seem by
compari son almost harmles s," wrote
Rac hel Carson. the original political
eco logist , 20 years ago in her landmark
book, Si lent Spring. And the use of DDT
was banned in 1972. Endrin is a nerve
I-lo ison whi ch is stored in the fat ti ss ues of
'lIlimil l, Since it is syntheti c, Endrin has
the ability t o remain in the ecosystem
Wit h little change for years, acc umul ating
in the so il and organisms
Keith Elli s, direc tor of the D of A,
mentio ned when he approved Endrin that
he may Iss ue a warning to pregnant
""omen and nursing mothers not to eat
upland game birds, which may contain
t ndrin , because of the potenti al danger
irom cancer and birth defects . In 1962,
Rachel Carson noted studi es In whi ch
chlor lnJted hydrocarbon insec ti cides
i reely cro>sed the barrier of the pl acenta
In ex peflmental·-Jnimal s. She al so mentioned that insec tic ide residues were
recovered in human milk samples tested
by Food and Drug Administration scientists. These may be reasons why a warning
might be issued, but apparently they are
not enough to elicit a ban on Endrin.
Ellis also suggested that the State Game
Department and Department of Social
and Health Services issue warnings to
hunters to limit consumption of game
birds and advice on how to cook birds
contaminated by Endrin. Montana issued
a similar warning last year, advising that
birds be prepared for cooking by trimming
excess fat and removing the skin . It was
stressed that all internal organs and pan
drippings from cooking be disposed of in
such a way that humans and animals
won't eat them. This is not very comforting. It is too reminiscent of the malathion
spraying in California when the state
assured its citizens that their health was
in no danger, yet advised people to cover
their cars as the spray could remove the
paint
Ellis rejected a proposal by the Pesticide
Advisory Board (PAB) to determine
whether the use of Endrin is economically
justified, thereby depriving orchard
owners of some important information .
The orchard owners have argued that
Endrin is essential in their war on mice,
based largely on advice by their pesticide
consultants. Unfortunately, many of these
pesticide consultants show a need for
Endrin since they also sell the chemical.
Apple growing is a highly competitive,
risky bu siness and it is important that
cos ts of production remain low. Since
there has been no study on the costeffectiveness of Endrin , there is no way to
determin e whether it is economically
preferred to any alternatives.
Alternatives to the use of Endrin are
numerous . Physi cal mou, e traps or bait
poi son could be used. Barri ers could be
erec ted around appl e trees. The habits of
this particular mice species must be
analyzed to determine their vulnerability.
Tall grass could be cut to inhibit nesting
and nests could be destroyed. An application of a sulphur linseed oil preparation
has proven to be a mice repellant. There
are many possibilities but a study is
needed to determine which method is the
most economical.
While it might be claimed that the cost
of Endri n is less than that of an altermitive, costs cannot only be calculated in
economic terms. When dealing with
pesticides, social costs must be calculated
also. The spraying of Endrin is justified
because it kills mice cheaply. However, it
also kills predatory birds which eat those
mice. And even if they are not killed,
sublethal poisoning may be responsible
for sterility and eggshell thinning in these
birds. Also, as more of these birds are
killed, less will be around to catch the
mice which have escaped poisoning.
Game birds may ingest Endrin which ends
up on grasses and there are numerous
health hazards for humans who consume
tainted birds. Endrin has also been proven
highly toxic to many mammals, such as
rabbits, squirrels and chipmunks. It is not
a selective killer.
Soil contamination is another important
social cost Earthworms may ingest Endrin,
concentrating it in their digestive tracts,
and be eaten later by songbirds which
suffer the consequences. Also, the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
has presented evidence that Endrin can be
taken up by the roots of apple trees from
contaminated soils and concentrated in
the seeds of apples, presenting a hazard
for seed-eating birds. It has been shown
by the EPA that Endrin is absorbed by the
roots of many common plants, such as
clover and various grasses, and is concentrated in their leaves. Animals who
consume these poisoned plants, such as
deer, receive sublethal doses of Endrin.
The long-term effects of sub-lethal
ingestion of Endrin by mammals is not
clear.
Natural erosion and runoff from the ,soil
C€lIltaining Endrin can carry the chemical
into rivers an.d streams . Endrin is insoluble
in water and has proven highly toxic to
many aqu ati c species and their larvae.
Contaminated soil can settle as silt in
rivers and be fatal to bottom-dwelling
animal s.
Analysis
Proliferation I's the Real Problem
by Ethan M. Kelly
" You conquer fate by thought," said
Thoreau . There are many who feel that
our ultimate fate is to be the victims of a
nuclear confrontation between the superpowers
With President Reagan committed to
spending 1.5 trillion dollars on defense
over a five-year period, and with the
Soviet Union certain to keep pace, the
nuclear nightmare seems unavoidable.
Largely because of su ch fear, the "Nuclear
Freeze" movement has mushroomed into
' one of the paramount issues on the international politi cal hori zon. The " freeze"
could decide the outcome of a number of
close congressional races in the upcoming
November elections.
However, a verifiable nuclear weapons
freeze , for all its merit, may not significantly diminish the possibility of a nuclear
confrontation. The reason being that the
gravest danger for nuclear war is not a
major United States-Soviet Union exchange, ' but rather the possibility of a
number of smaller, and in many cases
more unstable nations, developing their
own nuclear arsenals.
PIIQe II The Cooper Point Joumal ()ct , 7, 1962
Currently, five nations command
nuclear weapons. India has exploded what
it calls a "device." Observers believe that
Israel has a small arsenal that could be
easily assembled. Argentina, hardly known
as a bastion of stable government, is
investing considerable resources in the
pursuit of nuclear capability. Brazil is
thought to be only five years behind
Argentina, as both speed ahead to become South America's first nuclear
powers . The list continues with Pakistan,
Iran , Iraq, South Africa, ahd Libya all in
pursuit of the great geopolitical equalizer
as they see it: the bomb. Clearly, nuclear
proliferation is the greatest long-range
danger facing an already volatile world.
Most of the nations who are currently
seeking entry into the '.'nuclear club,"
have not signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, and do not intend to. In
addition , Argentina refuses to submit to
full-scope safeguards by the International
Atomic Energy Agency. The problem is
simple and it is frightening. The solution
could be simple but contains some .
obstacles. They are the Western leaders
and their nations, who are putting commerce ahead of peace and security. The
solution is an "International Plutonium
Freeze."
It takes only '1 pounds of plutonium to
create an atomic bomb. Making a bomb
requires that the plutonium be chemically
extracted. Many of the smaller nations
now striving to attain the bomb lack the
continued on page seven
Another thing to be concerned about is
spray drift. This may be contaminating
other fields or standing bodies of water.
It could also be harmful to the sprayer
who might be absorbing Endrin through
the skin.
It is easy to see how the long-term
effects of Endrin might not make it as
cost-effective as it may at first appear.
The present glut of apples and subsequent
reduced prices have forced orchard
owners to choose Endrin, which may be
economically cheaper in the short term.
The alternatives, such as mouse traps or
bait poison, might prove more expensive
initially since they may increase labor
costs. On the other hand, it could be that
alternative methods of killing mice are
more cost-effective and the orchard
ownerS are losing money after all. Since
a cost-effective study has been rejected
by the D of A, apple growers have been
deprived of the information on which to
base a decision .
This past summer the Audubon Society
urged Governor Spellman to call a special
meeting of the PAB to ban Endrin so that
an economically feasible alternative could
be instituted by this fall. Spellman refused
the request. jack Davis, representative of
the Black Hills Chapter of the Audubon
Society said: "We felt it was a deliberate
delay so we would be seen (later) as
obstructing the orchardists and there
would be ill feelings toward us." The PAB
held its regular meeting on September 2.
Spraying is scheduled to begin in two
weeks. Recently, the Audubon Society
petitioned Governor Spellman to override
Ellis' decision and issue a ban on Endrin .
On Tuesday, the Game Commission
passed a resolution requesting that the
D of. A put a ban on Endrin effective immediately. jack Howerton, a representative of the Game Commission and a
member of the PAB explained that the
Game Department, in cooperation with
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, have been
collecting dead birds for analysis. The
results indicate that almost 50% of these
birds, including owls, quail and songbirds, had died of Endrin poisoning. Live
game birds were shot and when analyzed
were found to contain significant levels of
Endrin in their livers. Howerton claimed:
"We are not satisfied that further restrictions will protec t wildlife. This is why we
called for a ban. "
Certainly Endrin is a proven health
hazard but the main flaw in Ellis' decision
is that the research base to make a
responsible decision about the use of
Endrin is lacking. A study could be done
by a local organization or university using
research grants but it is imperative that a
cost-effectiveness study be conducted as
soon as possible to determine whether use
of Endrin is economically justified. If the
D of A was truly concerned about working
in the best interests of its citizens, it
would not have approved the use of
Endrin before such a cost-effectiveness
study was conducted.

Threat of Draft Is No .New Problem
by Arthur West
Almost everyone is familiar with the
character of Daniel Webster as immortalized by Stephen Vincent Benet. An
eloquent and crafty lawyer capable of
besting the Devil in his own court. A man
of whom it was said: When he stood up
to speak,stars and stripes .came right out
in the sky; whose well-turned phrases
could alter the course of rivers, and call
forth the harps of the blessed or the
shaking of the earth below.
Far fewer have heard of the real Daniel
Webster, or of his struggles against more
substantial forces of darkness. When
james Madison's administration proposed
to organize the Army around federal
conscription, Daniel Webster condemned
the draft before the House of Representatives in the following words :
Is this, Sir, consistent with the characte~ of a
free Government? Is this civil liberty? Is thiS the
real character of our Constitution? No, Sir, Indeed
it is not. The Constitution is libelled, foully
libelled. The people of this country have not
established for themselves such a fabric of despotism. They have not purchased at a vast
expense of their own treasure and their own blood
a Magna Carta to be slaves .
...
Where is it written in the Constitution, In what
article or section is it contained, Ihat you may
take children from the parents and parents from
their children, and compel them to fight the
battles of any war, in which the folly or the
wickedness of Government may engage it? Under
what concealment has this power lain hidden,
which now for the first time comes forth, with a
tremendous and baleful aspect, to trample down
and destroy the dearest rights of personal liberty?
Who will show me any constitutional injunction , which makes It the duty of the A~eri~an
people to surrender everyth ing valuable In life,
and even life itself, not when the safety of their
country and its liberties may demand Ihe sacrifice,
but whenever the purposes of an ambitious and
mischievous Government may require it?
While such words are seldom heard in
the legislature in this day and age,
patriotic Americans are still to be found
who share the immortal orator's ideals of
. freedom, democracy, and the civil liberties
of our Constitution . One such group is
now organizing on this campus.
NOCARD, the New Olympia Committee
Against Registration and Draft, is an
.
extension of the former OCARD and IS
affiliated with the Central Committee for
Conscientious Objectors (CCCO).
Among other things, NOCARD i's
actively engaged in counseling people on
subjects such as their relation to the
Selective Service (S5) system, the potential of peace, one's legal rights under the
Constitution, and the democratic imperative of free and informed choice.
Among those present at a recent
NOCARD meeting was Glenn Anderson,
draft counselor, peace activist, former
conscientious objector, and patriot. The
SS, Anderson maintains, is not a system
Poetry
Arms
You have a gun
And I am hungry
You have a gun
because
I am hungry
You have a gUft
therefore
I am hungry
for the promotion of democracy: "The
whole idea of a draft is undemocratic,
and therefore the military's hostility
toward democratic values is reflected in
the SS systems intent to keep people
uninformed."
He believes people in a democratic
society should have good information
presented in an unbiased manner [in order
to exercise informed chOice.] "To make
up his mind a person needs information
and should not be pushed or intimidated,
whether by a counselor, parent, or
government official," Anderson
commented.
While acknowledging and observing
federal laws that make it a felony to
counsel directly against registration and
the draft, Anderson's personal convictions
support civil liberties and freedom of
speech.
"The government," asserts Anderson, " is
trying to get registrants to comply without
asking questions. People need to ask
questions, that's what democratic counabout counseling. Counseling respects the
ability of the individual to question and
decide . It is entirely different from ordering someone to take a specific action,
such as to register or not, without encouraging them to make an informed decision.
Anderson further explained that: "The
purpose of counseling is never to recommend a specific course of action, but
rather to inform the subject so that he
can make up his own mind ."
In addition to prOViding counseling
services and maintaining contact with
counselors and lawyers, NOCARD is also
working toward developing awareness for
choices in high schools, facilitating
dialogue with students of all types, having
information and resources easily available
to the community, preparing comprehensive responses to prosecutions, and
de~eloping a reliable contact network,
fully integrated with national , state, and
local 'groups.
These and other goals of the organization are enumerated along with practical
guides for their accomplishment in the
organization's action flow chart.
One issue directly concerning students
involves The Evergreen State College's
residency application form . To apply for
residency in the state of Washington, the
applicant must state whether he has
registered for the draft. NOCARD member
Phred Churchill stated that lawyers retained by the Coalition feel that this
aspect of the residency application is of
questionable legality .
Meetings of NOCARD are held Wednesdays at 7 p.m. in library 16<XJ. Anyone
needing more information may contact
the Evergreen Political Information Center.

The first week of school saw a new look

The ERC is still in CAB 1m, but four

four groups are the Wilderness Center, the
Organic Farm, Bridges Academic Program,

capability. They need not worry. The
industrialized nations have been more
than eager to help.
Argentina has received support in its
bomb building efforts from West Germany, France, Switzerland, Canada, and
Italy. Much of the same group has helped
Brazil and Pakistan. France sells fuel to
India. To crown the entire unsavory affair,
the U.S. Senate has twice unanimously
urged President Reagan to discuss nuclear
proliferation at economic summit conferences, and twice he has refused.
By law the United States cannot supply
nuclear equipment and fuel directly to
countries that ignore international safe.guards. However, the Reagan administration has concluded that the U .S should be
a "reliable supplier" to any nation it feels
does not present a "proliferation problem." Yet as the New Republic contends
in its' September £> edition, "unfortunately
some of these countries do supply nuclear
materials" to problem nations and the
U.S. is doing nothing to stop them.

Fortunately, Reagan's proliferation
policy (or lack of one) has drawn fire
from congressional critics. Senator Gary
Hart of Colorado, and Senator Alan
Cranston of California, are co-sponsoring
a resolution calling upon the United
States, the Soviet Union, and other
plutonium-producing countries to negotiate a verifiable halt in further export of
plutonium and plutonium technology, for
civilian or military purposes. The resolution also calls on the U.S . and other
nuclear supplier and consumer nations to
agree not to use plutonium as a nuclear
power reactor fuel, but instead to base
civilian nuclear power technology only on
non-weapons-usable fuels .
In 1961 John Kennedy told the United
Nations that we all "sit under a nuclear
sword of Damocles, hanging by the
slenderest of threads.!' In the Quartercentury since Kennedy's warning th e
thread has been stretched to the breaking
point. The passage of the Hart-Cranst9n
plutonium freeze resolution would put
some much-needed fiber back in the
thread.

urther Tips on Safe Bicycling
by Todd Litman
Last wpek I described how bicycles
should be ridden for safe, easy and CCXJPerative travel. To summarize that .column
there are three things that you need for
pffect ive bi cyc ling :
1 A bi cycle in safe condition.
2. Bicycle handling skills which allow
you to be comfortab le and in control
while riding .
3. An tmderstanding of how bicycles
best fit ir"lto the road system. The important th i ng is to be seen and be predictable, to ride like any other slow
vehicle. ChCXJse your position in the lane
depending on how fast you are going
co mpared to the rest of traffic, except at
intersection5 where you chCXJse your
pos ition according to your destination .
Never ride against traffic.

Fishing is one of the many outstanding
outdCXJr activities the NortHwest has to
offer, and right now fishing is good to
great. From high mountain lakes to
Capitol Lake, fisherpeople are pulling
them in.

Here is a brief rundown on fishing in
the area. Capitol Lake has been yielding
silver and king salmon along with a few
trout. Most of the action is going to the
boaters, although a 34 pounder was reportedly taken off the fCXJt bridge Thursday morning, September 30.

Record Review
Never Say Never, a four-song, 12" LP,
showed everybody that they were still
examining the weight, shape, and other
characteri stics of the beginning product.
They were al so looking at and analyzing
their own ideal s, and ways to best combine their ideals with their beginning
product Following this time, they found a
rich, resourceful , and powerful patron .
They also found many new supporters,
both economi c, professional, and critical.
Benefactor tells us that the group is just
now starting to mold their talents. They
have always been well balanced, but
Black Lake, along with many other
local lakes, is offering good rainbow
fi shing, with boaters having the best luck.
Mud Bay is so close you can literally fish
on your way to school , though you might
be late for class if they are really biting.
Egg clusters, shrimp, spCXJns, and even
worms have been catch ing fish here. A
12-lb. steel head was reportedly landed
early Sunday morning, though by Sunday
evening it had grown to 18 Ibs.
The fi shing here will no doubt get more
crowded before the run is over.

are now finely tuned. This balan Ci ng and
tuning will be an ongoing process for
Romeo Void more than for most bands, as
they have been musicians for only a short
time. Several differences that are visible
between the first and third releases are :
Stylistic drumming (as opposed to pure
power).
Additional support from guitar, and
Softer singing by Deborah Iyall.
The major difference, however, is that
Benjamin Bossi has been given a long
rope to wail away on his saxophone.
Without him, who knows where the band
might be today.
A little further from home, the North
Fork of the Lewis River is offering good
fishing with silver and chinCXJk salmon
being taken , along with some steelhead .
A "bonus bag limit" has been extended
to October 17, 1982, on part of the Saleduck River by the Department of Fisheries.
There are 20,000 salmon in the river
according to the department.
Make sure you are well aware of the
laws pertaining to the area and fish you
are going after. Bag limits, size, sex,

far as the record, he says we need to have
more people involved, and have them

According to one student who has had
el<perience with audio at Evergreen , " . .. it
is a shame that some of our finest facilities must collect dust because of a situation that could have been foreseen. "
Another student, who did not wish to
be identified , sa id this about the situation
" The fac t that one overworked staff member is the only person on campus qualified
to control studio access should not have
caused hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth of state-owned educational equipment to lie dormant. The failure of any

student proposal to lighten Ken's workload leads me to believe that he wants to
retain control over the studios, but doesn't
want to deal with the work involved. It
seems until there is a faculty to supercede
Ken's position, or someone he fully trusts
to take respon sibility, the doors will
remain locked ."
Marybeth Goodrich, a student who
planned to take audio this year, has this
suggestion : " I would advise those students
still here with an interest in audio to
inform the deans of their desire to see the
studio s reo p en in 1983-84 . There is
nothing about audio in next year's catalog, but for the studios to be closed for
more than a yea r would be a disappointment to those who beli eve that students
still have a voice at this institu tion."

Geoduck Homecoming
by Duane Heier
I guess a Geoduck homecoming was
semi-inevitable, but it still conjures up
some pretty weird images . Does anybody
want to volunteer for a DTF to select
homecoming queen? I thought not. Both
Geoduck soccer teams have home games
on Saturday and Sunday, and assumedly
Assistant Athletic Director Sandy Butl er
had her tongue in her cheek when she
came up with the homecoming idea. But
that's part of Sandy's job. Like many other
people here she has more than one role,
among them what would be filled at a
regular college by a person called something like "Sports Information Director."
Saturday there will be a program of
food, prizes, and music. Admission is free.
The men's game begins at 2 p.m. and the
women do battle at 4 p.m., all games to
be played on the field east of the Rec
Center.
So far in the young season the Mighty
Mollusks haven't fared tCXJ well. The
women are 1-4 overall and 1-2 in conference play. The men, who don't play in
a league are 0-3. Women's coach Jacques
Zimicki is optimistiC about the rest of the
season, but knows that the teilm urgently
lacks depth with only 13 booters on the
squad.
To satiSfy those of an aquatic bent,
there is the Geoduck Boat Club. Membership enables you to rent canoes and rowboats at reduced rates. It also gives those
who qualify access to sai\boats, kayaks
and rafts. You can purch~ your membership at CRC 302 between 8 a.m . and
5 p.m. weekdays. Students pay $4 per
~
quarter or $12 a year; faculty, staff, and
others' pay more.
The Rec Center also organizes Evergreen involvement in city league competition . If you are an ex-high school or
college jock, or think you could take
them on in basketball or volleyball, you
should attend the informational meetings
to be held in early November. For those
times and locations, or anything else to
do with recreation, contact the Rec
Center at 866-6530 or CRC 302.
Thi s suggests one of the intri guing
aspects of the Evergreen athleti c program.
Since the college neither recruits nor gives
scholarships to its athletes , any student is
free to try out for a team and have a real
chance to parti cipate in interco fl egiate
athletics . In fact, some of the teams are
quite short of personnel and those
coaches would probably be elated to pick
up any number of recruits.
Also this weekend the women tackl e
UW and the men wrangle with Western
Washington , both games here Sunday.
The men kick off at noon , the women
play at 4 p.m. At 4 p.m. on Wednesday
the men entertain Pacific Lutheran .
Lou Power's Sailing team hoists in the
season this weekend with a regatta at UW
both days . The 'ducks are sending two
boats and will compete against a number
of schCXJls, large (Oregon State, Western
Washington) and small (Lewis and Clark,
University of British Columbia)
Swimming season doesn't open till midNovember in Walla Walla (the city so
nice they named it twice). but practice
begins sCXJn. If you are a student and
interested in a little intercollegiate
athletics all you have to do is swim, sail
or run over to the top flCXJr of the Rec
Center and talk to the athletic department. Those with less enthusiasm can
call 866-6530.
