Reporting for a newspaper involves checking out the legitimacy of a lot of rumors .
This week's bit of hearsay cuncerned the
possible closure of the Evergreen branch of
South Sound National Bank. As the rumor
went the Branch wasn't profitable for South
Sound and its board of directors was seriously considering pulling out.
We checked into it and discovered the
rumors to be just that - rumors. What we
found was a bank that had just invested
$10,000.00 in new equipment for its TESC
branch and had 2.5 million dollars in assets
(as of the end of September), from that
Branch. We also found South Sound's President, Bob Olson, listed as a member of the
school's foundation board as well as the
committee to select a successor to Dan
Evans.
Two or three years ago there might have
been some truth to such gossip. According
to Sandi Miller, the bank's branch manager,
.. For most of the first years the branch was
here [since Evergreen opened], it lost money
or just broke even, but last year we saw an
improvement and this year we're seeing a little bit of a profit."
Both Miller and bank vice 'president, Mick
O'Connor, cited good customer relations as
one reason for the branch's improved earnings in the last year.
O'Connor pointed out, "We've only had
four managers there (the TESC branch) in
the last eight years. This gives the managers
the chance to know the students."
One way in which the bank tries to please
its Evergreen clientele is by offering special·
check cashing rates at the school branch.
Says Miller, "I have set my own rules as far
as check cashing. I'm bucking the system."
According to her, South Sound's other
branches charge one percent of the amount
of a check with a three dollar minimum for
those who don't have an account. At
Evergreen the rates are one dollar for checks
of fifty dollars or less, two for those between
fifty and one hundred. For checks over one

O'Connor and Miller both feel tbat South
Sound's tenure at Evergreen will be a long
one. As Miller said, "We will be here as long
as the college wants us here."
That could be a long time ,
Acting President Richard Schwartz is
grateful for the bank's presence on campus.
"South Sound is doing us a great service by
being here. If we had to do our banking
downtown, we'd be spending a lot more
money. We would need to pay someone to
be running back and forth from downtown
and we'd have the expense of an armored ear

The national Rock Against Reagan tour
made a stop in Olympia on Sunday. The nationally sponsored tour had scheduled a six
hour event on the steps of the capitol from
noon to six. Just over one hundred people
participated as they came to hear music
played by six local and national tour bands.
The event that had drawn crowds of over five
thousand in New York and Pennsylvania,
had a somewhat meager attendance by
comparison.

Action Committee of Thurston County had
speakers that called for an immediate stop

other parts of the world. A representative
from the Olympia Affinity Gronp not only
called for support in stopping nuclear
weapons transport, but also gave a vivid
description of the projected 'kill-zolle' surrounding a nuclear missle attack on the
Bremerton Naval Base. The Respect and
Freedom Project's spokesperson asked for
help in abolishing prisons in Washington and

The crowd applauded and respon ded

than they did in pledging support of the
movement.

The event, sc heduled to last six hours,
began to break up about five-thirty - a half
an hour short of the mark. Local lawenforcement officers were in the background
for the entire period and may have had some
influence on the early finish. One speaker
made reference to their presence, which drew
a negative response from the crowd, but fail ed to get a rise out of the officers. In brief
conversation with one patrolman, he
reported that the event went smoot hly and
without incident. Considering the small
number of participants, one wonders if the
tour promoters feel the same .

We conducted at random an admittedly unscientific survey of people on campus who
have or have had an account with South
Sound. The comments we received ranged
from positive to extremely negative in nature.
Program Secretary, Audrey Streeter, projected the positive side of those interviewed.
"I've been with them for four years and I
don't have anything bad to say about them."
Others made remarks similar to those of
President Schwartz, citing the convenience
of having a Bank on campus.
On the other hand, much of the negative
feedback came from people who didn't feel
that the Bank was convenient.

Faced with a n unprecedented number
of candidates, Washington State voters
chose to go for familiar names as
Republican Daniel Evans and Democrat
Mike Lowry both post ed impressive wins
in last Tuesday's primary election .
With all but 30 o t th e state' s precincts
reporting, the vote co unt showed Evans
the big winner wit h 240,480 votes or 38
percent, while Lowry picked up 172.705
or 27 percent.
Lowry's strong showing in the primary
indicates he is within ,houting distance
and must be taken serious ly. Evans ob viously does, since he accepted Lowry 's
challenge to a debate just moments after
both ca ndidates were declared winner s.
Lowry claims to be an unabashed
liberal and makes no apo logies for it.
Evans, on the other hand, says he is a
"mainstream" candidate. One thing
seems certain; voters will have a real
choice this November. The race has
begun.

to Native American or African peo ples to
find this way of understanding time, but it
is in our European heritage as well. The
paga n ways of Europe exist even now in o ur

As inherit ors o f European culture we have
a special affinity for the ancien t CelticGermanic Pagan ways. Looking at the eight
major so la r holidays of the paga n year, we
can see t hat most of them are still celebrated,
so me in Chri stiani zed form, some in much
diminished form (Groundhog Day) , some
with their pagan roots still showing (Halloween). Pagan is from the Roman word for
country dwellers (pagan us). To be pagan is
to be rural, to be attuned to the cycles of the
earth rather than the ways of the city. To be
pagan is to see and respect all nature, both
in the world we inhabit and in ourse lves .

A bill authorizing new on-the-job training
opportunities for Vietnam and Korea{l
veterans passed legislation and went into effect on October I, 1983.
According to Representative G. V. Montgomery (D-Miss.), "The bill H.R . 2355 will
pay to employers 50 percent of the veteran's
starting wage (up to $ 10,000 per veteran) to
help defray training costs . "
The bill provides for a maximum nine
month training period except in the case of
veterans with certain service-connected
disabilities who are allowed a maximum of
15 months training. In addition, the
employer is asked to certify that, at the end
of the training period, he plans to employ
the veteran in the position for which he was
trained.
According to Montgomery, "We urged
the Budget Committee to include in the
budget resolution $150 million in the fiscal
year 1984 and another $150 million in fiscal
year 1985 to establish this two-year emergency jobs training program ."
Although the bill has been passed, the program has been delayed due to the money not
yet being appropriated. According to Jim
Holley of the House Veterans Affairs Com-

Q: How do I know with the flu if I s hould
see t he doctor?
A: Several flu symptoms can warrant a trip
to Health Services. These might include a
fever over 102, difficulty breathing, vomiting
or severe diarrhea, coughing up thick yellow ,
green or bloody mucus or anything else that
doesn't seem quite right. It 's important to
remember that since colds and flu are caused by viruses, taking antibiotics such as
penicillin and tetracycline will not help. What
will help is aspirin for fever and lots of fluids,
. taken in small sips every 15-20 minutes.
Q: Should I see the Women's Clinic if I'm
feeling okay?
A: Women over 18, women who are sexually act ive and women who have spec ific concerns should have an annual pelvic exam
which includes a partial physical exam,
1110rd
breast exam and a pap smear. Women who
have herpes or whose mothers' took DES
shou ld have a pap smear every six month s.
Q: What does it mean if I pass blood clots
during my period?
A: Absolutely nothing! Menstrual fluid is liquid as it passes out of your uterus and then
begins clotting in your vagina as it comes in
contact with air. Having thick or lumpy
menstrual blood can be normal. See a health
practitioner if the amount is extremely heavy
(one tampon /30 minutes) and/ or is accompanied by pain.
Q: Ca n herpes be caught on physical objects
(i .e. toilet seats, chairs, hot tubs, chapstick)?
A: Though it's true that herpes viruses lik e
warm, moist environments, they are far too
short -lived to travel from one infected person to another who is not in immediate co ntact. Most herpes cases are contracted by
skin-to-skin con tact. Persons with current active lesions, though, should pay special at·
tention to avoid using certain public facilities
like hot tubs and communal bat htubs until
the lesions are completely healed .

mittee, the $150 million for the 1984 fiscal
year should be approved with no problems
in 10 days to two weeks.
The unemployment rate among war time
veterans rose in February of this year to the
highest level since World War II. Uilemployment among Vietnam veterans alone remains
at levels significantly higher than among nonveterans of the same age. In June of this
year, at least 619,000 Vietnam veterans were
unemployed and looking for work. Of this
number, 365,000 between the ages of 25 and
44 had been out of work 15 weeks or longer.
Although recent figures from the Bureau
of Labor Statistics suggest that the situation
is improving, they also show that the problem persists and that the unemployment gap
between veterans and non-veterans remains
sign ificant.
Montgomery emp hasized that the job
training program "is designed not only to get
veterans working again, but also to narrow
the gap between veterans and their civilian
counterparts whose educa tion and employment were not interrupted by military service and to do so on a short-term emergency basis in order to ride out these ' tough
economic times that have hit all Americans
so hard. "

Pornography degrades us all
By Allison C. Green
Managing Editor
I went to Not a Love Story with a lot of
reservations. I didn't want to see a film that
explo ited pornography while protesting it. I
didn't want to see a film that demanded guilt
of men as reparation. And I didn't, frank"Iy, want to see women abused .
My fi,st reaction was, "hey, this isn't so
bad." Three nude women cavorted across a
stage surrounded by men who grinned,
sta red blankly ahead and paid tips . Then exam ples of pornography from the covers of
magazines showed women tied, gagged and
chained, often symbolically by clothing and
valentine heart lockets. When a Hustlercover
!lashed a pair of women's legs going in a
meat grinder and ground beef coming out the
bottom, I suddenly realized how desensiti zed I am to the effects of pornography. Of
course it's easy to object to violent pornography but that is only a part of a whole
range of types that subtly or blatantly
degrade women, and thereby men .
That night I went to my local 7-11 to be
confronted by a Hustler magazine with two
headlines: Women Who Beat Women and
The Razor's Edge: Hairless Sex. Desensitization. I go to the store and automatically tune
out these magazines. I k now they are there,
even if they are tokenly covered by a plastic
sign. But as many of us tune them out. "acceptable" levels of pornography have
become more violent, more concerned with
power and less co ncerned with the novelty
of explicit bodies.
Though it's become hip in some circles to
view Playboy as innocent fun, our accep-
tance of it and of more subtle forms of pornography - in advertising, for instance propagates the more blatant forms because
all of it broadcasts the same message: women
are in the position of animals and deserve to
be kicked around and used for men's
pleasure.
The film showed two Calvin Klein jeans
billboards. In one a man stood, feet apart,
hands on hips , staring directly at oncoming
motorists. In the other a woman kneeled on
hands and knees. She looked vulnerable . Her
expression was as coy as the man's but their
stances left no doubt about their position in
society.
After th ese images flashed on the screen,
I was confronted with the stuff I knew I
needed to see but was so afraid to look at.
Women with clothespins on their nipples,
tied and strung up . A man moving a pistol
in and out of a woman's mouth. I tried hard
to keep watching but had to turn away. This
kind of stuff is hard to read, I know, and
also hard to write and hard to think about,
but worse, these images will never leave my
head. I've got to do something about it.
In the discuss ion after the Film with Joan
Harfst of Women Against Violence Against
Women, we argued how best to change the
situation: by legal means or through in dividual attitudes. In the first angle we would
attack publishers, shop owners, theatre
owners a nd loca l groceries that sell pornography. In the second we would concentrate on changing attitudes by creating a
healthy sense of sex and affection.
The First Amendment is a tricky one. By
what kind of guidelines do we decide what
LETTERS
is pornography? And to whom do we give
that authority? Though I am as afraid an
anyone of the misuse of censorship power,
after seeing these images and realizing the extent pornography affects us all, I must support action to control it. Society has a right
to protect its members from dangerous
in Iluences.
Child pornography is illegal. It exploits a
part of society that cannot defend itself.
Children don't always know their rights
when authority figures (adults) guide them
into unhealthy situations. They are also often
physically forced into actions they do not
want to do .
Why should we treat pornography of women
any differently because women are forced by
economic factors (as well as by threat of
physical violence)? Women don't always
know their rights when traditional authority figures (males) and in general a patriarchal society tell them they are only worthy
if they exploit their physical selves and submit to men's power. The myth that pornography only exploits consenting adults
buys into the same myth that women deserve
to be raped and like it.
We would effect more change by working
on both the political and attitudinal level.
The film mentioned that in Poland in World
War II one of the first things the Nazis did
was spread pornography because they knew
it isolates people and aids the deterioration
of solidarity of the community. Pornography
cultivates this isolation by forcing men and
women into sexual roles that heighten a
power struggle.
Perhaps in place of pornography we can
create a form of explicit erotica that does not
degrade anyone and actually creates warmth
and communion among people. It would
take experimentation to redefine our programmed ideals of beauty and sensuality to
emphasize the beauty and worth of all people. We would need to strip away layers of
brainwashing that stereotype sexual roles and
sexual activity. And we would have to
rediscover the intense beauty in the very
power the female body holds.
The goal is not repression. By censoring
pornography we do not want to drive
underground the real and important needs
of expressing and communicating ~exuality.
Just this kind of available erotica, in
magazine or book or moving picture form,
could be an answer.
Someone at the discussion said the ~ity
council of Olympia has been petitioned to
allow a pornography store here. The CO!I1lcif doesn't feel it can legally deny access a:ld
is looking for an "appropriate" place . No,
there is no appropriate place. This i,
something to look into.
Though I left Not A Love Story upset, I
also felt that, as in many cases, awareness
is a great first step toward solving the problem. The i$sues are complex. Pornography
degrades all of us and the more we discuss
it with each other the sooner we can come
up with a consistent and realizable response.

Another weekend has come and gone. October's chill has painted the foliage and
stacked the firewood around the backdoor
for easy access. Just another sleepy autumn
Sunday in Olympia? Maybe.
The capitol building doors were tightly
locked as usual, but just over a hundred
Olympians lined the cool stone steps. Some
of them danced, some just tapped their Nikes
contentedly. People shouted in agreement,
booed passing policemen, and applauded
loudly as several local bands pumped out hot
li cks and activists spoke out against
American indiscretions.
The cause of the fervor was the national
"Rock Against Reagan" tour that stopped
in Olympia for six hours last Sunday. The
tour, sponsored nationally by the Youth International Party, Rock Against Racism,
CARD Youth Caucus, and many others,
started in New York in March of this year.
The main thrust of t he tour is to rally support for the cause - to defeat Reagan at the
polls in 1984.
Speakers from local affirmative action
groups such as the Central American Action
Committee of Thursto n County , the Olympia Affinity Group, and the Respect and
Freedom Project, called for support for
everything from comp lete withdrawal of
U.S. involvement in Cent ral America, to a
halt in the movement of nuclear weapons
across the Washington state railways, to the
abo lition of the penal system.
Posters, leaflets , news bulletins, t-shirts,
"Stop Reagan" buttons and other tour
paraphernalia were in abundance. As bare
feet slapped the stone steps to the rhythm of
the music by tour bands like Stick Against
Stone as well as local talent including the
'y oung Pioneers, Endangered Flakes, and
Heliotrope . The rental truck pulling a flat
bed trailer piled high with sound equipment
served as a make-shift stage where the bands
wailed about our government's political and
moral atrocities. A tired yellow school bus
stood behind the stage in the shadow of the
Washington State Temple of Justice. It was
piled high with mattresses and clothing,
ready to carry the R.A. R. tour members to
yet another stop and another plea for
support.
Local organizers provided bands, speakers
and advance publicity to contribute to the
national tour . They hope to make enough
money at each stop to go on to the next.
As the frisbees were being tucked under
weary arms and the pamphlets were being
unceremoniously stuffed into the ragged
pockets of the worn military fatigues, this
reporter walked away from the event lost
deep in the fog of wonder. Many questions
were raised; many opinions and ideas were
voiced. If we are in fact successful in evicting the Reagans in 1984, how do we gain
control of the new tenants of 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.? When we succeed in stopping all the trains carrying nuclear armaments,
how do we prevent the rest of the world from
generating nuclear weapons stockpiles? What
will we have to bargain with? How will we
be able to defend our Constitutional right to
hold demonstrations such as this one? What
can we do with our nation's rapists and
killers when we've turned our prisons into
condominiums and sent all the guards on
permanem holiday?
Are we (and the world) any worse off with
Reagan and his smokin' 44s than we were
with Carter and his empty water pistol???
I think it's a toss up, but who voted these
people into power, and whar are the alternatives? We have all got an opinion on which
road we should be taking, but who the hell
is holding the map? Turn up the music we'll talk about it later.

Cable in .Oly: The Issues
The pending refranchising of cable television
in Olympia has sparked renewed community interest in local cable programming. This
second offour articles will highlight specific
issues typical of current franchise
negotiations.
By Hal Medrano and Peter Moulton
When an appliance dealer in the
backwoods of Pennsylvania first began
stringing antenna wire around his
neighborhood in the late 40's, he had no idea
his attempts to improve television for his
community, and thereby increase sales of his
television sets, would result in an industry
which ' today sustains over 4,800 cable
systems in the U.S. Nearly 30 million homes
currently subscribe to cable, and industry
analysts predict that more cable will be installed in the next five to ten years than
already exists. Yet cable as a communications
medium is still in its infancy, with
technological advances and programming
options evolving at an incredible rate.
With the advent of HBO in 1975, cable
stepped beyond its spawning ground of small
cities and isolated communities, and began
offering urban markets programming options which now include over 60 satellite servires. In the next five years, competition over
th_"se new, potentially lucrative franchises
allowed larger cities to demand a wide array
of concessions from the cable companies, including provisions for community-access
channels and state-of-the-art technology.
Simultaneously, many of the original cable
franchises issued in the 60's began to expire,
leaving smaller communities with the difficult task of assessing present and future
community needs in an environment of rapid
technological change and regulatory uncertainty. Olympia's original franchise, which
terminates at the end of next year, will be
the first to expire in the metropolitan area.
Lacey's original franchise expires at the end
of 1988, while Tumwater's franchise,
renegotiated in 1976, doesn't expire until late
in 1991.

Rochester remains the only unfranchised market of any size in Thurston County .
Five cable companies have expressed interest, yet no applications were received when
the county requested bids for the area in 1982.
TV ad laws challenged
In order to effectively understand the
issues surrounding refranchising during the
next year, the Olympia City Council appointed a citizen's committee early this past
spring. Comprised of lawyers, media experts
and other interested city residents, it is charged with drafting a model franchise ordinance
by the end of this month. Nation Wide
Cablevision, the major cable vendor in the
metropolitan area and much of Thurston
County, recently requested a 5 year extension of Olympia's franchise in exchange for
8 new channels of service. The City Council
denied this request in light of the advisory
committee's current effort. The new ordinance is likely to address the following considerations which are typical of current franchise negotiations:
- expiration date: The city must be able
to renegotiate often enough to require the
cable company to adapt to changes in service needs and advances in technology. The
cable company needs a guaranteed period of
time during which to turn a reasonable profit. A common expiration date within the
county would create greater cooperation,
while staggered expiration dates would allow
plied to local programming. Many cities circumvent this restriction by charging Band
o or utility taxes. Olympia currently levies
a 4Y, percent utility tax.
- key lock: The cable company would be
required to provide key locks that could temporarily disable R-rated movie channels at
home .
- emergency channel: Most often this
takes the form of allowing the city to override the audio portion of all channels in the
event of an emergency.
- Addressability and interactive capability: Addressability would enable specific
homes to be targeted for programming. Twoway, interactive sys tems involve audio,
visual, and l or data transmission to and from
each home. This allows for some of cable's
most exciting potentials, such as energy
management, shopping, banking, polling,
traffic control, alarm systems, and two-way
"video phones." The cable currently installed throughout Olympia is not capable of
either addressability or interactive transmission. One way of approaching this issue is
for the city to require state-of-the-art
technology, if economically feasible,
U.S. stations as a deductible business expense. U.S. laws, however, do allow
American businesses such deductions for
advertising on Canadian stations. American
broadcasters say this is discriminatory.
The bill, S. 1940, would mirror the Canadian pra~tice by denying U.S. deductibility
for purchases of time on Canadian outlets.
One Washington television station, KVOS
in Bellingham, reportedly lost $4 million in
advertising revenue last year from Canadian
businesses as a result of the practice. Before
Canada'sJ976 law denying such deductions,
85 percent of Bellingham'S advertising had
been by Canadian businesses.

viously and classically symbolic (is that a picture of Ronald Reagan with his mouth open ,
on the back wall of the submarine shower
scene?) but this is James Bond!
But alas, Never Say Never Again lacks a
certain level of sophistication that we've
come to expect in lames Bond films . The
video computer images, which one suspects
were put in for high tech appeal, are as cute
as Ms. Pacman. Even the video image of
Maximillian at the teleconference seems to
have reception problems. Some of the special
effects are so jarring they ' re downright
disruptive. For instance, when Bond and
Maximillian's wife, Domino (Kim Basinger),
make the jump over the fortress wall on
horseback, the close up of them with that obviously fake background really takes away
from the scene. (Where's Hitchcock when
you need him?)
Fifteen years ago Never Say Never Again
would've been a great lames Bond film, To-
day however , it's just good, which isn't bad.

The Artist
Where is the Artist who through me once spoke,
that could always give name to that ambiguous pain.
Dissects my anger, exposing its nerves,
Broils the passions this world would have me deny,
Like torchlight leads through the caverns of soul,
where jewels lie nestled beyond the scope of control.
Habits, like scratch-n-sniffs, honoring truths of my past,
scraped by the words, giving breath to their stench,
Like a master of burglary, cracks my securified heart,
thieving the extensions I use to define myself.
Left empty and raw for the eyes of eternity,
and the air that sustains me I thank for its mercy,
It's the Artist that burns, that tingles, that aches,
and dares to declare what he loves, what he hates,
It 's the Artist who rips his way out of his skin,
allowing the Universe tro.nsfusion with him,

Contemplation
When you come to the ceremony
leave your clothes at the door.
No spring was ever made by anyone
with anything to hide.
This time of year
is set for leaving things behind
for growth and growing
and giving.
We can have it now reach out just a little,
the fruit is in the blossom
awaiting the steady hand.
