Two local mycologi sts have introduced
" The Mushroom Cultivator," a practical
guide to growing mushrooms at home.
The book, co-authored by Paul Stamets
and J.S Chilton, took three years to
write and represents many years of
researc h and experimentation by both
authors . The Mushroom Cultivator has
over 400 pages of information and
outl ines 16 species parameters, describing various growing methods, equipment
and yields . There is a lengthy sectoin on

Both authors are active in the Northwest mycological community. Together
with several other people they formed
Myco-media, a non-profit educational
organizat ion to promote the study of
mushrooms.

The Mushroom Cultivator is the second book for author Paul Stamets.
Published in 1978, Stamets' first book,
Psiloc ybe Mushrooms and their Allies
outlined habitats, taxonomy and gave
descriptions of the various psychoactive

species. Curre ntly Stamets is owneroperator of Fungi Perfecti, a mail order
sa les company offering steri le lab
cu ltivation equipment used in
mycological and non-mycological
botanical research.
JS Chi lton spent four months in
Holland on a fellowship researching
mushroom cultivation and has been a
grower for Ostroms Mushroom Farm in
Olympia Chi lton plans to move to
Canada where he will continue his work
as a grower.

Hot Ti me at the Empty Space

••• ' •• -•.••.•<

The Empty Space Theatre is currently running "F ilthy Rich", a spoof of the
private detective genre, by George F.
Walker. "Fi lthy Rich", directed by Jeff
Steitzer, ce nters around Tyrone M . Power
(played by John Procaccino). Power, a
down and out lush, becomes a private
detective in spite of himself when a
mayoral candidate disappears and a cast
of mystery yarn arch etypes think Power
can find him. There's a pair of sisters,
each suspicious of the other, a tough
gangster ca lled " Pig" , a no nonsense
pol ice detective and an ambitious young
man who becomes Power' s partner. In

BW'. Capitol Scuba

o ne hum erous and unlik ely sce ne after
another, Power dis covers the depth of
lega l and moral corruption among the
"F ilthy Rich". It's the good guys against
the bad guys (guess who wins)

The humor lies not 50 mu ch in the
plot but in the characters, and the company does a commendable job bringing
this play to life. John Proca cc ino gives
an energetic performance as the cynical
and pathetic lead, Tyrone M . Power. The
rest of the cas t is entertaining in the
broad characters they portray. Ri chard
Riehle is especially funny as the
nefarious villain "Pig", who enters with

the accompaniment of om inous musi c
and black gloves . James Corbett Crabtree, an Evergreen alum, is memorable as
the ambulance driver.
Visually, the play works very well
The set by Karen Gjelsteen is beautiful
and functional with breakaway window
an d door. The costumes by Celest
Cleveland accentuate the character
types "Fi lthy Rich " will be running
through June 26th at 919 E. Pike in Seattle . The theatre is on the third floor and
tends to get very warm, which led me to
conclude The Empty Space would do
we ll to give two programs at the door.
One to read and one to fan with .

To: Duane Heief and Arthur West
Congratulations, I read your articles,
" Rising Tide of Driftwood Dissatisfaction" and "Evergreen: The Politics of
Athletics" with considerable del ight; you
took two very controvers ial subjects and
treated them with understanding, insight
and fairness . You had done your
homework and gave me information on
the subject that I was unaware of. Good
writing, good reporting, and a job well
done .
Part of the problem at Driftwood is
that some parents seem to be expect ing
a preschool which is so mething that
Driftwood is not. The 35 parents who are
using Driftwood are re ceiv ing ove r $600
of subsidy apiece on their education
from S & A in the form of lower daycare
fees . Turning Driftwood into a preschool
would invo lve an even greater subsidy
then the present day ca re.
It should be pointed out that when
the Intercollegiate Athletics was added
to S&A, the S & A Fees per student were
rais ed from $54 to $60 so there did not
have to be a decrease in serv ice in other
areas .
You did a fine job of reporting,
good luck .
Sincerely yours,
Joel J. Barnes

Opinion

c
board the seem in gly obvious fact that
the CPJ and KAOS are vast ly different
endeavors.

by Duane A. Heier

OK students, it's Evergreen Gover·
na nce Education time again. This week
let's exam in e the Communi cat ions
Board . They' re the folks who ove rs ee the.
Cooper Poi nt Journal and KAOS radio.
The board is constituted of two students ,
(not m embers of the CP J or KAOS staffs),
o ne st udent S&A Board representativ e,
one academic dean, one broadcast professional, one newspaper profess ional,
two community representatives , a
representative of the president, a
member of the faculty and a college
staff member. As with most boards,
so me members are conscientious, some
ar~ not, some are competent, some apparently are not.

In real ity these people meet once a
month for an hour or two and are able
to accomplish little more than keep four
or five student positions filled. They've
worked nearly all year on revising their
part of the Evergreen Administrative
Code and it seems unlikely that they wiil
finish that task until next year some
time.
A t one time Iast quarter they had a
draft of the EAC regulations all ready to
routinely pass . However, the rules were
poorly conceived and an onslaught of
distraught KAOSians forced a rewrite
through the simple tactic of showing up
en'mass and patiently explaining to the

Forced to act uall y read and try to
understand the procedures they were try·
ing to ratify, other deficiencies and confusions were found in their document
and a comprehen sive rewrite was
ordered. Most of the people on the
board lack any real understanding of one
or both of the campus media.
Before I feed you too much education I'd better get down to my specific
bitch. Last week the Comm . Board hired
a new editor to lead this rag into 1984.
Faced with three choices they naturally
hired the person with the least qualifica·
tions. (This is as good a place as any to
congratulate Francisco Chauteaubriand
on being named next year' s CPJ editor,
he is not without ability, I iu st think the
other two candidates were not only better qualified but that their selection
would have been in the better interests
of the paper.)

ca pa cities for th e paper, learning the
organizations stro ng points as well as
weakn es ses. In this fashion an inco ming
editor can 'use those strengths as a foun·
dation o n which to build stronger structure for se rving the CPJ's readers . Com·
ing into the job of editor I had some experien Le most aspects of producing the
paper and I still found it to be a time
consuming and challeging task .
Second ly, the editorship is a
desirabl e, fulfilling and challenging job,
the sort of task that substantially fills
out a college education. The organization will always have an easier time
recru iting staff writers and other personnel if potential staffers know that if their
performance merits it, they will be in

line for positions of greater responsib ilities. Some one 'who has put several
quarters of effort toward building the
paper dese rve s suitable reward.

As I have said the newly hired
. editor is not without ability, and he will
probably do a creditable job. However,
by the time he gets just the day to day
task load of the paper under control he
wi ll probably discover that most of one
quarter is already gone. Someone inured
to the CPJ routines and conventions
would be able to get a much quicker
start, and they and other staff members
could feel that loyalty and dedication
are rewarded at the CPj.

Evergreen's Future: Tits, Beer, Petty Vandalism
by Kid Lizard
Local high school graduates have
been a high priority in TESe's recruitment goals. However, this process has
been hindered by a lack of knowledge of
those student's desires. Last fall a special
DTI' was formed to study this area.
Richard Furbrains, head dictator king of
the recruitment DTF explained the process of study to the CPj over a big mac
and fr ies. The aim of the study, commented Furbrains, is to find out iu st
what local high school students really
want. We conducted a thorough survey
of local high schools to find out what at·
tracts this group. The results were stunning!
First on the list of priorities was tits.
Big bouncing tits! Next came beer. Kegs
and kegs of it. Following in rapid succession were fast food, video games, petty
vandalism and large over-built cars .
These new revelations will require a
thorough overhaul of our recruitment
and retention plans.
Furbrains noted that maior steps
would be required to meet these needs.
While petty vandalism is well along at
TESC, we lag far behind other institutions in many other areas. The DTF .
report details steps required.
The crux of the program will deal
with fast food . "Fast food is essential to
our recruitment goals," said Furbrains.
" Our survey revealed that regional high

Two important principles are involved here, and they both relate to the
role of consistancy in the evolution of
the paper.
First; it's important for an incoming
editor to understand the arcane complexity of putting out a sheet like this on a
regular basis. The best way to learn
these skills is to work in various

SPj : Buffy, do you think it is fair to
spend all that money on athletics?
BUFFY: Definitely. I think that we are
emissaries of e~lightenment and goodwill for the college ... like, one game a girl
ca me up to me and said, "Your legs are

really gross, why don't you mow them I "
I said, "Don't you know that not shaVing
your legs is a statement to this sexist
world that a woman doesn't have to
shave her legs to be beautiful?" "They're
ugly," she said. "So are you ," I said.
Those are the times when its all
worth it, when you get through to a person and say hey, this is what Evergreen
is all about.

You know, I also think that
Evergreen will make up all their money
that they spend through people like me
who come to school just to participate in
intercollegiate athletics.
SPj: What's your response to a person
who accuses you of being an elite?
BUFFY: I say, better me than you.
The controversy on whether
Evergreen and athletics are a contradiction is not an easily resolvable issue. But
at least we can get some sort of perspective talking to those involved, the
athletes.

Break out your broadswords and
iron maidens, it's time once again for the
Dark Ages Fair. The event which is cosponsored by the S & M board and the
Society for Creative Barbarism, will
feature a complete torture chamber from
the Spanish Inquisition among the usual
activities. Many people have heard of
the Society for Creative Barbarism, but
know relatively little about the organiza·
tion .
The Society was founded in order to
give people a chance to I ive out their
medieval fantasy dreams and basically
rape, pillage, eat and drink to excess and
have a good time . The society also offers
a unique companionship for people who
like getting their head bashed in with
blunt instruments.
The annual Dark Ages Fair is a
benefit for the Society for Creative Barbarism, so be sure to look for their
benefit booth. Instead of the usual tub

of water, you can throw baseballs to
dunk society members in a boiling vat of
oil. There's plenty to do, from getting
your back stretched out on the rack to
getting your cutic les crushed with
thumbscrews .

Coordinator of the Society for
Creative Barbarism, Conan Boulderhead,
said he hopes to " make more peopl e
aware of historical European pain in
order to build an enjoyable Ame rica . W e
need to establish our own forms of
American pain and our past will help us
get in touch with it."
The costuming is usually spec·
tacular, lepers and plague victims intermingle with knights, Medieval maidens
and feudal barons to create an at·
mosphere of Dark Age gloom Th ere are
plenty of arts and crafts to buy, and torture to be had by all. Don' t miss the
squalor this Saturday from noon to six in
the Evergree n Pavillion.

" The Self may understand the Spirit
by means of the Mind, but only through
the realm of the Ideal. Or by means of
the Body-the heart and reflexes-but
again only indirectly, through SOCiety,
through the cultural matrix . Only the
Soul can know the Spirit, because they
are two sides of the same Base-the

the Mind, is the plane of the Ideal. This
realm can also be represented by a
triangle, whose base is its Soul. On one
side is the Mind, adjoin in g the Mind of
the Self-in fact, equivalent to the Mind
of the Self. Thus we are taught that the
Highest, or most advanced, Truths approach the Universal, or Ideal. On the
other side is the Body of the Ideal, or
the ideal made manifest. Thusly:
Illustration #2
"The Old One made another drawing upon the slate, showing the two
faces joined by the Mind.

"Another triangle, again with its
base being its Soul, adjoins the Body of
the Self . This triangle represents the
realm of Society, or Humanity. The Body
of Society, that is, its manifest nature, is
realized in the individual Self. We react
as individuals to our society reflexively,
from the Heart. Thus we teach how we
are all, in some essential sense, products
of our culture; our culture is realized

through us . Of course this is only on~
third of our real ity, one side of the
triangle,
"The Body of Society, equivalent to
the Body of the Self, is also only one
third of the reality of Society The Soul
is another third, the base. The other third
is the Mind of Socity, This is the matrix
of laws, or underlying principles, by
which a society is organized"
One of the disciples then asked,
"What of the fourth plane, Old One?"
The Old Man answered, "T he fourth
plane is the plane of Spirit. It, too, can
be seen as a triangle, with its base being
its Soul. Its Body adjoins the Ideal. This
is why we may speak of Utopias as being
Ideals imbued with the Spirit, or of a
Spiritual realm taken to its Ideal point,
"The other side of the Spirit is its
Mind, adjoining the realm of Society,
The Spirit made conscious, taken as
Mind, is distilled into ordering principles
and modes; Yoga and Science are simply
cu lturally specific manifestations of the
same quest. The Social realm, as it approaches a perfect state, will manifest
greater spiritual order, Its Mind melds

Letters
I recently visited Evergreen for the
first time sinc e I was a student a number
of years ago, I couldn't believe it, man.
like .. , this place has changed, man,
Nobody goes barefoot in winter
anymore, I even hear rumors that some
programs are giving tests (barf me out),
It's obvious that Evergreen has succumbed to the pressure from moral majority religious zealots in the legislature,
There's even talk of intercollegiate
sports (and I don't mean hacky-sack).
Doors are no longer left open in the
dorms and drugs are no longer sold
openly at C.A. B, building tables, Let's
face it, the place has gone to shit. I
mean, people don't even live in busses,
teepees and yurts anymore. The only
thing that hasn't changed is the c.p,,-,
which is as bad as ever, Keep up the
good work.

Hipsters Fight for Their Northwest Mecca
In the 11th year of its development
TESC faces a crisis, The failure to attrdct
the right caliber of students poses a
threat to the continued operation of the
institution, To study and recommend
solutions to this problem, a special study
group was chartered SOMetime last '
Thursday afternoon, The Council for Post
Secondary Hippness ((PH), After a week
of laid back study, the CPH has come up
with a sweeping set of recommendations
to brng the school into line. "The main
problem with the institution" says CPH
chairman Moonsprout lovebeam "is the
failure of the co llege to live up to its
original design, Originally TESC was to
have been a mecca, attracting hippies
from thousands of miles away, More importantly, TESC was to se rve as a place
to hang out in the winter when the Dead
don't play. These primary functions of
the school have been severly neglected
in recent years .

Administrator Rodney Snodgrass comments."
"There is some problem with legibility in
the initial report. It appears that the
original 129 recommendations were
scrawled on 31 B extra wide Job wheat
straw rolling papers with organic crayon.
The report also bears obvious signs of
being composed in a teepee during a
rainstorm, in an altered state of consciousness, However, the recomm endations we have been able to decipher
have been really far out and funky.

Wow." The discern able recommendations
include:

The entire Council for Post secondary Hippness was badly mauled earl ier
this week when, in a fit of pique, administrator Richard Furbrains set upon
the co un cil with a loaded tastee free,ze
machine, "Those godddm hippies really
irk me!" said Furbrains shortly after the
maul ing over a double order of ch ick en
Mcnuggets with fries in his newly padded office
" Why don't they all go cu t their hair
and get jobs? If any of those greasy
longhaired bums starts messing with my
intercollegiate drag racing track again
they'll be dead for sure ."

"That guy Dick, he's just way dyno
uncool said one council member through
a comp lete body cast " We all think that
Mr. Furbrains just isn 't mellow at all"
confirmed Council chair M . lovebeam
while recuperating at sunnydale pinnko
bum commune.

In response to its charter the group
released a comprehens ive set of
guidelines to restore the intended role of
Evergreen. Unfortunately the form of the
report has puzzled some administrators,

Course requirements, All student>
will be required to earn 16 credits living
in a teepee, yurt, or other related structure, In addition, 4 credit hours of tofu
pressing will be mandatory, It is not a
generally known fact, the study notes
ominously, that 95% of TESC graduates
are unable to make proper tofu, This is a
critica l failure of secondary education.
Basic programs "Rai nbow 101" and
"Ways of Hippness" will be offered, in
addition to a new spec ialty area, "Bucking the Establishment." Five inch Ipng
greasy hair will be required for admittance, and admissions personnel will inspect students for the proper amount of
filth and grime, Students without
parasites will be issued them . All potent ial students will be fed drugs and subjected to Grateful Dead music until they
"me ll ow out man,"

The Old Man of the Mud Guides the Soul
"Who are the Illuminized Masters?"
asked another disciple .

bv II
The Old Man of the Mud was once
as ked by a dis c iple to name the most important tasks of a seeker of Enlightenm ent. " This is simpl e," replied the O ld
One. "T here are three tasks which one
must co nfront, in order to atta in
Enlightenment. And once one is
Enlightened, there are three equiva lent
planes outside the Self which one must
also st riv e to perfect, in order to reali ze
the Truth of Universal Enlightenment.
These are the Mysteries of the Illuminized Masters ."

"And what of the Three Tasks,
Master?" asked the first disciple . " And
the Three Planes outside the Self? "

" Their identity is beyond the
awareness of thos e such as yourself, "
replied the Old Man. "When you have
passed beyond the hallowed halls of This
Eternal SacredColiegium, and have participated in the Rites of Passage under
the Eye of Horus, then you will learn of
these things. Suffice it for now to say
that the Iliuminized Masters are the
same who built the Pyramids, and the
Tower of Babel."

The Old Man of the Mud took a
long draw from the hookah, and began,
" The Three Task s of the seeker of the
Light are to perfect the three aspects of
the Self; these are the Body, the Mind,
and the Soul. Perfecting these three
aspects has been your task these four
long years at This Eternal Sacred Collegium.

Golfin' With Goya

When they asked me to cover this
assignment I said , " I am a journalist not
a bloody critic." What was worse is that
they wanted me to review one of these
trashy television shows. I vowed not to

The 7th Annual TESC Celebrity ProAm Go lf Tournament was held last Friday, Saturday and Sunday on the converted football field . TESC visiting artist
Francisco Goya of the 19th century was

EI Professor Gordo, Evergreen pro stated,
" It was th e most magnificent performance I have ever seen."
TESC students were represented in
the tournament by Ober de Brink,
Hyhger Prynzipales, and Arturo Lizardo
who shot 71, 71 and 98 respective ly.
Ober de Brink gave a possible reason for
his poor performance by sayi ng, "T here

mother was up against a trim middl e aged landlord who had obviously been to
the gym. Amazingly she was only 5 pins
down going into the 9th frame bur she
blew an easy spare and the landlord
st riking out in the tenth hardly mattered .

As if this wasn ' t a sufficient affront
to good taste, the network plans next
month to bring out a new show that is
similar but deals with criminal cases .
Details are sti ll sketchy but rumor has it
that the new show will feature defense
attorneys and prosecutors knock ing
down the pins in a segment called
"bow ling for time". Through a complex
formula, sentence for defendants will be
determined by how well a defense council bowls against a prosecutor. Anytime a
prosecutor bowls a three hundred game
an automatic death sentence is handed
down . All and all Bowling for Justice is
about the most disgusting display I've
ever had to witness . I quit.

To The Editor,
The Mud Bay household would like
to extend warm thanks to the Evergreen
community, and to the Olympia community, for all the donations of clothes,
food and money, and all the support we
have received since we lost our house to
fire on May 12th. It has been a traumatic
experience for all of us, but made less so
by the warmth and generosity that
everyone has shown us,
We are sorry to say that, after lots
of effort went into the planning, we have
had to cancel the fourth annual Mud
Bay Graduation Party and Mud Races.
Cheer up though, because your
dedicated party planners have been hard
at work searching out and negotiating
for a new location for the party, and
also a new mud flat for the race. Keep
your eyes open for flyers announcing the
new spot later this week! Happy Graduation l
In Mud We Trust,
David, Heather, Tom,

There are many 25c films and stage
shows that never make it to towns like
Olympia and Steppford. At last we had
found it It doesn't get any more
pol itically incorrect than this.

The folklife festival was crowded .
Musicians, jugglers, shit kickers and
other politically correct people jammed
the center with homemade clothes,
righteous petitions and long hair. Many
groups, such as The Jug Band That Fell
To Earth, played politically correct
music.

We arrived at Seattle Center, home
of the festival and headed to the bar (as
there was no beer garden). We were served by a waitress named Becky. Her
nametag did not reveal a last name. We
interrogated her about the festival but
all she would divulge was that she made
more money during the event.

It is unfair to judge Burnett's mu~ic
from that conce rt because the overall
sound was terrible. " Trap Door" shows
Burnett rocking with aplomb and his
writing style remains unique in music today . He says that he's trying to do " the
same thing the C lash is trying to do. That
band has got the vigor to wake people
up. And for that I love those guys like

In a few short years, Burnett has
become the apple of the rock press eye.
Rolling Stone, The L.A . Times and
several other rock mags have highly
lauded his new 5 song E.P. entitled " Trap
Door". Burnett has worked with such
widely diverse artists as Bob Dylan, Pete
Townshend and Mick Ronson . Burnett
also acted as producer for Leo Kotke's
latest albu m . You might remember him
from the Who' s last show at the
