Inside: CR"'Y MA1..1..0WftN extravaganza and election bonanza
To my brothers and sisters who are living on Mars:
I have received your message requestin~ information. I am currently buying time in college by studying potential investments in my intellectual future . I read on the walls of
tOIlet stalls the laws that govern humamty. The r~1 art ~asters of the world, they have not bothered tt? collect their precious works, instead they have burned every last one
before anyone could see or hear It. SCIence, whIle making attempts towards solving the problems ot the world, hal> ended up creating more of them. Art, while making
attempts towards creallng more proble~s for the world,. has ended up makin~ things harder for me. There is justt<X1 much to appreciate and it.is only getting worse. The
pIcture looks.gnm,.a pl.anet of matenahsts who are denymg the force whIch d~ves them: Theyal.1 have to go to therapy, and it costs them even m~re of their precious money,
~essemng theIr buymg powers. There IS much more. Once upon a time they Jtved happIly ever atter. JOIn With me and let us overthrow the Devil In the name of turning Hell
mto a pubhc pa!k. There are two types of wnters. One learns to write something and then edit it and edit it and edit it and edit it until it is good. The other writer knows how to
do 11 nght the ftrsttlme. In .thls grand 'a ge of ~ord proc~ssors, erolSable pens, and typewriters that knock out paragraphs with a buttons push there is a tendency to not put any
value on the word. Why stnve for the best chOIce ~hen It can be changed later? There was a time when ink and paper were scarce and a writer had no choice but to do it right
the first tIme. There was no erasmg the permanent 10k and a new sheet of paper was a weeks salary. Contemporary historians are wondering why the contemporary literature
compares to the hterature of yesterday like dog shit to diamonds. There is always more paper and a bic is a dime (or free if you stick it mer your ear and walk out), the'delete
button IS happy to wipe out and the automatic thesauru s will tell you a better word for \acation. The bullshit on the racks at the stores. the crap in the papers, the junk in that
shghtly west rag IS as processed as pork ramen. Word processors? Stop askmg me to rewritec\'erything, I got better berries to pick. Discovery consists of looking at the samc
thmg as every one else and thlOklOg somethlOg different. Students are not taught to searc h inSIde theIr own mlOds for the answer, they belie ....e that the correct answcr lies in the
mlOd of another person. People have a tendency to fall in love with their own rules. They kee p them up on a pedestal. Because the y believe that momls are sacred and should
no t waver, they view themsel ves as strong impenetrable castles that will never fall. Not only are they lying but t·h ey are doing a great disse rvice to themsel ves. Break or
challenge the rules, and the first ones to start with should be your O\\'n. If necessity is the .mother of im'en tion then play is the father. Who is going to sa\'e me? I am sitting
alone on a cold San FranCISCo summer evemng. InSIde thIS old Vlctonan I have turned ott all 0 1 the lights, the telenslOn set, the radio. It is dark and I am alone. The 11001'

death feels warm and I am no longer alone. I do not like root beer, When I was in a third gmde at the elementary school I may have dnmk root beer, but sin.:~ then I have not '
drank any root beer. My brother drinks a substantial 4uantity o f root beer. , He enjoys the, s\\eel flavor amI the bubbly 4uality of the soda be\erage. I ha\'c bumped into my
brother atleast seve n tImes In the last year at The Beverage Depot. He IS always there bUyl ng ... l:an you guess? Root beer, of l:ourse . I suppose that we all have our tastes and
root beer IS the taste or my brother. I can't remember biting off my brothcrs pinky finger and slIallO\\ ing it , but I imagine that it tasted a lot like rlXlt beer. Thc more creali\'e
a person is, the more punishment they will receive and eventually a person could get the electric .:hair without breaking a law. In order for humankind to make the ne" t ste ps in

newspaper, the ones you hear on this radio station, the ones that are visible , they too are the E\'ergrecn student8, but they are the flowers. The rest of us are in the ground likc
roots, and we are getting deeper and deeper and deeper, e\'eryday more and more and more, This is \\hat it is like to be under the ground , under the cement, under the gmss,
under the clock tower, this is Undergreen. For minor cuts and scrapes apply liberally tn the affected area at least three time a day or until the pain goes to another person. Dog
food and dog shit are one in the same. I never let anyone know it, but I used to kiss the pumpkin ma n. Fortunately I was under the financial support of immedialc family. This
was not to say that I was free from the burdens of the monetary struggle. I learned to live on mos tly rice, be'tns , and \,egetablcs. I began shopping for only necessities, and
soon it dawned how cheap simplicity can be. And I learned to close my eyes for reaeation and entcrtainment. Then one day while admiling the colorful mushrooms that
sprouted from the local cow herd's turds, I heard the fast-paced clomp stomp of a Charging bull . Over my shoulder I glimpsed the bmine approaching with an angry
expression at a speed inconceivable for such an unwieldy beast. In the l1ash of an exhibitionist I was up and running, but not away from it. for the bull could casily match my
fastest sprint. Instead I ran at a right a ngle to its current approach, This was fast thinking indeed, for it sa\'ed my life and I was happy to sur\"i\'e with nothing more than the
scrape o f the barbed wire as I hopped the fence and tore the seat of my pantal<XlIls, Arter that near brus h with an angry earth mammal I gave up my kind ways to become one
of the great and talented besliality porn stars. Making innovations and bringing new possibilities to the world of husbandry intercourse. The profits of my enterplise brought
me to the point of total financial freedom . By marketing my video tapes, books of photographs, instruction manuals (for home or offi.:c use) , and hypnotic sleep learning audio
cassettes, I generated perpetual flows of money that jammed further my already jam packed wallets. purses. and pocket books. It was on that late ~ummer afternoon when the
charging bull brought me to the light bulb flash realization that the simple nature lire of the ramily sponging dependent is meager l'l1mpared to the opulence of the self made
animal porn star. Going to fill you up with our lies: Turn off the light. Turn down that noise. All I hear is noise. Are you on dmgs? Not in my houS{' you \\"on't. Get that out

But, their actions were driven by a subconscious jealousy for our freedom. It was when we wrestleu that my cousin and I were acting like the members of the biosphere that

I stood in the middle of the circle of houses all around me and shut my eyes. Thoughts whirl: "Maybe there is something wrong with him? Cherche/. la femme ? 1 can't help it.

Umrani racism
workshop
enlightening
by Lynn-Teresa Williams
Ali Rashad Umrani presented his
highly acclaimed workshop Confronting
Racism in American Society on Oct. 22, at
7 p.m. in the Recital Hall of the Com
Building. This workshop, which is
designed for people of all colors, explored
the unspoken institutionalized way of
thinking in American Society.
Most people, people of color and
whites, feel that this workshop is one
wherein Umrani is expected to get back at
white people for the ills caused by them.
Umrani emphatically states that this is not
his intention.
"My workshop assumes that the
mistreatment of human beings is universal
and that it is in our mutual interest to be
concerned with each other's pain," Umrani
said.
Umrani repeated these words to a
predominantly
white audience of
Evergreen students, staff and faculty. He
made it clear that his intention was to
show how all people are victims of racism
to varying degrees. Providing a space
where both whites and people of color
could honestly talk about their differences
was of chief importance to Umrani.
"In workshops, safety and direction
is needed to encourage participants to
engage each other honestly and directly
without fear of rejection or loss of respect
for others integrity," Umrani said.
Umrani, who is 44, and born in
Mississippi, credits his own sense of
integrity and purpose to his grandfather,
and according to Umrani "My personality
was formed because my grandfather, who
,was a very wealthy African-American
farmer, wanted to provide a strong sense
of security for his children and so he
purchased a lot of land."
This strong feeling of having

security gave Umrani a sense of safety
which helped to nourish his self-worth as
a human being.. _
"I always had somewhere to go, to
land my feet, a place that belonged to my
family and that had a past."
One of the things he learned while
growing up was that when a human being
begins to see himself as central to his
environment, it causes him to lose
perspective.
"This tends to be the condition of so
many whites in the general population,"
Umrani said.
He began lecturing on the effects of
human oppression and racism in 1978, and
has trained with the late Dr. Charles King,
who served as President of the Urban
Crisis Center. Still, each workshop that he
does is a new experience for him. "I'm

The Women's
Center and

whether "The Year of the Woman" is
indicative of rhetoric or progress.

Hardiman and Sunera Thobani, scheduled

The consensus was that there was a
.lot of rhetoric being spewed, while at the
same time women's rights were being
eroded. Reproductive rights and the
prevalent inequality of women's earning
ability are still issues which would need
consistent and effective support from the
community.

never prepared in the disciplined sense of
the word. I don't follow a particular
routine, it would limit a sense of humanity
if I were to approach my workshops that
way," he said.
It is evident that these workshops are
also opportunities to establish an emotional
and spiritual link with all the participants
who attend when he says, :'the revealing
of emotions is important as it is important
that the participants know that I am their
brother, I am their friend and ~t.rm not
here to betray them," Umram satd, "If I
did not see whites as my brother, then my
whole purpose in conducting these
workshops is of no consequence."
For the participants there was a
feeling of profound enlightenment and
validation which triggered self-examination
for the whites who attended and the
regeneration of hope among people of
color who attended.

MEChA conference to tribute
~~~!2~~Chicano art~'It~i~~o31hA
to let the
The MEChA statewide conference
wiII be held on the Evergreen Campus
Saturday and Sunday of this weekend,
Oct 31-Nov. 1.
"The primary purpose of the
conference is to teach the history of where
we (Latinos) originated, where we're at,
and where we are going," said George
Hermosillo, member of MEChA.
Dr. Carlos Munoz, keynote speaker
and author of Youth,ldentity, and Power:
The Chicano Movement, wiII address the
history of the Chicano movement and give
insight to where the movement is going.
MEChA, which
stands
for
Movimiento Estudantil Chicano de AztIan,
originated about thirty years ago in
response to the walk-outs in East L.A.
because of discriminatory practices in all
levels of education. Although the walkouts were some of the largest protests in
America during the 60's, the media failed
to cover them and focused coverage on the
South and later the Viemam War.
MEChA is a nati9nal organization
which exists to further Latinos in higher
education.
"Institutions across the country don't
do enough to recruit Latinos into higher
education," says Hermosillo. "It seems that
there is a fear that admission requirements
wiII go lower if people of color are
admitted into higher education because of
Affumative Action. That's a myth."
Thirty-six high school organizations
from across Washington will be present at
the conference in addition to post
secondary schools. Evergreen and other
college students will not only be
mentoring but also serve as role models
for the high school students.
students attending the conference see that
higher education is a possibility for them,"
said Hermosillo. ,
One of the highlights of the
conference is the celebration of Dia de
Los Muertos (Day of the Dead)
commencing Saturday on Red Square at
5:45.

Who is elected governor could
impact Evergreen's future because the
governor appoints the trustees who have
the·fmal say a1'>out such college matters as
the budget and policy.
Four people; a majority of the board,
have appointments which are pending.
.
"If Ken (Eikenberry) were to win it
is not clear what happens to appointments
which are pending." said John Terry
Chairman of the Evergreen State College's
Board of Trustees.
Terry explained that for a number of
years this has been an unclear area, and
whether or not the appointments go
through or are sent back to the Governor
has a lot to do with whether or not the
legislature in Washington State remains
Republican.
"I can't predict what is going to
happen," said Terry, "if Mike Lowry wins
and the State Senate is controlled by the
Democrats, Mike Lowry may let those that
have been submitted stand and go through
the confmnation process."
Mary Anne Doyle, Lowry's press
secretary, stated that, "Mike is likely to
follow the criteria that Gardner has used in
past appointments."
"I will ask for help," said Lowry, "I
will ask for the people to talk with me and
to each other about what The Evergreen
State College needs. The Evergreen State
College is very important to the future of
this state. I really mean it when I say our
development depends on the best educated
people."

defining election and we need to look at
education differently than we have
before."
"~ the programs they are talking
about are going to cost money, but not as
much money, as it would cost if we don't
do it," said Terry. "We as a state must
provide extra dollars for extra students,
because tuition only covers some of the
expense of a college education."
Washington State has a $17 billion
two year budget Forty-five percent of the
budget is funding that is constitutionally
protected for the public schools. Sixteen
percent of the budget goes to higher
education and law-makers in this state feel
higher education funding should not be
diminished, meaning sixty-one percent of
the budget cannot be touched.
That means thirty-nine percent of the
budget will have to absorb the $9 million
in cuts needed to balance the budget This

Gubernatorial candidates Ken
Eikenberry and Mike Lowry are currently
tied in the polls. Last week businessman
Sam Stroum reported that a member of
Eikenberry's campaign offered him a
reappointment to the board of regents of
the University of Washington if he
contributed $50,000 to the Eikenberry
campaign.
"I have no intention of reappointing
Mr. Stroum, or any of the other current
regents at the University for several
reasons," said Attorney Geneml Ken
Eikenberry. "I want to make sure that I
have people who are going to put an
emphasis on allowing access by students
here in the state of Washington to our
public universities."
Eikenberry claims that this was a
smear tactic by his opponent Mike Lowry.
"I don't respond to rumors," said
Lowry. "I know Sam Stroum is one of the
most highly respected members of the
Seattle business community, but I agree

Lowry maintains he knew nothing
about the incident until the story broke in
the Seattle P.I.
"There is no relationship between
the two campaigns," said Mary Anne
Doyle, Lowry's press secretary, "we are
campaigning on the issues, mther than
talking about Ken Eikenberry ... We are
running our campaign to elect Mike
Lowry, not to beat Ken Eikenberry."
The Lowry campaign has been
dogged by Eikenberry and Eikenberry staff
consistently throughout the campaign.
Forums and debates have been called off
when Eikenberry cancels at the last
minute.
"We have sought out every
opportunity to seek out situations that
allow the voters to contrast the positions
of the two candidates, but it is hard to do
if only one candidate is there," said Doyle.

DeJllocratic rally encolllpasses
by Rene' Pettyjobn, Jules Sibbern, and
Sbane Carlson
As the lyrics of David Bowie's
"Young Americans" came pouring over
Pike Place MaItet. the crowd of 25,000
plus people of all backgrounds shifted
closer to the stage.
An over-view of the crowd displayed
a canopy of bold faced signs ranging from .
"Vietnam Veterans for Clinton" to "Can
Do Not Voodoo."
At 7:40 a.m. the Democratic rally
began with keynote speakers Patty Murray
and Mike Lowry with a brief statement
from Northern Exposure's Rob Morrow.
Urging the downfall of Oregon' s
bond issue #9 and the election of
Democrats, Murray and Lowry readied the
crowd for an exciting speech by Governor
Clinton. Murray stressed, "We can get
back on track and make America great
again."
The speech opened at 8:40 to
thunderous applause from the anxious
crowd of Clinton supporters.
In a clear voice, he welcomed the
crowd, even Perot and Bush supporters.
Starting off with endorsements of
Washington's Democratic candidates,
Clinton followed by saying Republicans
have "run out of ideas, incentive for
change, time," and now should be "run out
of town."
He made his usual statements about
change, jobs, education, relieving tax
burdens on the middle class, and
trickle-down economics.
But. the main point Clinton stressed
was that "at this stage in the election it's
more about the people."
With only twelve days to the
election, Clinton's speech was exactly
what the crowd expected; short and all
encompassing.
The CPJ took note of Clinton's
references to AIDS, sexual orientation,
women's health issues, and the
environment. Clinton supported gay and
lesbian rights as well as the fight against
I\IDS.
Another special interest group
pleased by the speech was those concerned
with women's health issues. Indignation
spread over Bush's failure to pass the
woman's health care · bill, · but the
supporters were assured that when he is
elected President, Clinton will make the
bill a priority.
Starting with Lowry's call to "end
the polarization of the environment," this
issue remained a focus for Clinton.
Although he did not address specific
Northwest concerns such as logging or the
spOtted owl, Clinton did state that he
could, "create jobs by preserving
environment."
Senator Al Gore's environmental
record has also brought support to the
ticket, as was mentioned by Tammy, a
Lynnwood resident who specifically
applauded Gore for his stance.
Many interest groups were
represented at Thursday's rally, and were
more than generous in sharing their
thoughts with us.
One outspoken supporter was James
Allen of the Seattle area. Although Allen's
stance is significantly more liberal than
that of Clinton, he believes in actively
supporting the Democratic candidate as a
move for change in a positive direction.
Also, unlike those who think
spontaneity indicates honesty, Allen
suggests that we "should not condemn
Clinton for being prepared."
With few exceptions, most of those
who attended the rally thought character
issues were misused in this campaign.
Even Richard Biondi, an adamant
Bush/Quayle supporter, was not concerned
~lection
with Clinton's Vietnam record. A vet from
the Persian Gulf war, Biondi believed
Clinton would, however, leave military
decisions in the hands of the Geneials,
who, in catering to their own best interest,
would promote unnecessary confliCL
The protection of small businesses is
a major concern for Lula Hubbard
Richardson, who owns a beauty salon in
Seattle. During Bush's administration she
witnessed a drastic decline in her business.
Another concern for Richardson is the
taxation of what she refers to as "black"
programs.
Many of those who joined in the
Clinton rally see Hillary Clinton as a
positive role model for the country, in
light of women's changing role in society.
According to Monica Macguire of
Port Townsend, Hillary is a "wonderful,
dynamic woman," who she hopes will
have "a lot to do with policy." This
issues
sentiment is also shared by James Allen
who thinks Hillary, "should run for
President someday."
An interesting facet of Thursday's
rally was the extent to which music was
indicative of the audience Democrats seek.
Music associated with an era of
great change bro~ght back a nostalgic
hope for the disenchanted (everyone).
With songs ranging from Bowie's (not so
appropriate) "Changes" to the Beat1es'
nebulous "Here Comes the Sun," Clinton
and his campaign advisors are mllking an
obvious attempt to capitalize on his youth.
As with any media event capitalism
was apparent. Starbucks Coffee seized the
opportunity by offering free coffee to early
arrivals. Even Clinton arrived on stage
with Starbucks at the podium.
Rene' Pettyjohn, Jules Sibbern, and
Shane Carlson are Evergreen students.

Skippy gets Iron John with new card
by Seth "Skippy' Long
Well True Believers. it's been an
interesting past two weeks since we last
corresponded. As you will remember. my
long-time friend and companion Skip
Daniels has indeed disappeared; vanished
as it were. And while the search continues,
I must remain both calm and vigilant as
well as maintain some semblance of a
normal life. In doing so, I have had a
number of interesting experiences.
Early last week my mail box was
graced by the presence of a small
bleached-white envelope bearing no return
address. I found this little gem after a long
day of classes and carefully took it back to
my humble apartment where I could open
it in the relative peace of my own lair. I
held the fragile little envelope in my
trembling hands and lifted it up towards
the small sliver of light that had managed
to penettate the trees outside my window.
But alas, the contents of the envelope were
much too dense for my feeble eyes to
discern. So, I was forced to resort to the ,
only method that was left, violent force.
With the ripping force of a twentyyear old Greener, my hands tore into the
tender flesh of the envelope, shredding the
left side in one swift, determined motion
and allowing the light of truth to shine on
it's contents. Slowly I removed the paper
contents and let them unfold, and then Thud! It landed on the soft carpet with a
meek thump. There it was, the tiny piece
of plastic for which I had awaited with
baited breath for over four weeks. My
Citibank VISA credit card.
Finally, I had been initiated into the
world of adult, income-generating, and
debiting men. The Great Gray Fathers on
Wall Street had deemed me ready to
shoulder the burden of this grand slice of
plastic and its esteemed place in the longstanding American Tradition.
Sq what do you do with your <fmt
credit card? You can't buy a car with it.
You could pay your bJition with it (if you
live in-state like me). You could buy
yourself a new stereo system. You could
buy a new futon to rest your weary head
. (I am in the market for one by the way.
Wanna sell me yours?). Or you could
think about what it means for a man to get
his fmt credit card in· our society and do
the only responsible, appropriate and sane
thing that there is. March right on over to
the campus bookstore, yank a copy of
Robert Bly's Iron John of the shelf, slam
it down on the counter, look the silly,
work-study person right in the eyes and
say in a determined voice, "Charge it!"
Yes, I bought it After months of
hearing about the often fabled and
ridiculed book I decided that this was the
perfect time to purchase it (for only
$11.87 after taxes!). I'd heard so much
about it, so many criticisms of Bly and his
ideas about men and their relationships to
society. And now, after reading 1(2 of it,
I am, enthralled with the book. Not that I
buy everything that he's saying but it is
most definitely interesting. I advise men
and women alike to read this book, if for
nothing else then for the novelty of it. So
many of my seminars here have been on
books for, by and about women. Here is
one that is strictly about the male psyche;
where it has been, where it is and where it
might go.
Enough~of the plug and so much for
my little ritual'story. Remember to VOTE
and have a happy Halloweenl Here's the
Search Update 1 promised so many of you
last time:
. SKIP DANIELS SEARCH UPDATE
1O(29:0ver the past two weeks there have
been a number of reported sightings all
over the Olympia area. One report placed
him at the Eastside last Thursday, another
at the Fourth Ave. Tav. on Saturday to
hear Sweat Band. Both of these have since
proved to be inaccurate. Out of countless
sightings, only one showed any truth. On
the night of 10/19 Skip was spotted
driving his neon blue Dodge Dart
convertible up and down the runway at the
Othello, Wa . . municipal air~trip at around
2 a.m. He was spotted by a drunken
airstrip security. officer who was on duty
at the time. The officer claimed that Skip
was doing "donuts" on the runway at
about 75 mph with four other people with
what looked like automatic weapons and a
dead cow in the back seal He also said
that after 20 minutes or so the car bJrned
and headed due east for
the
Washington/ldaho state line. More details
as we get them here at White Bread
Productions.
Skippy is getting a real charge out
of his new credit card.

by Rarael Marino
Part 2 - We will
continue with the
subject of last week's
column: Is the United
States a less or a more'
sexist country than
other countries, especially Latin
American countries?
We could now look at the percentage
of women among college students.
First we look at the countries with the
highest percentages (The second column
is the percentage of women for the
whole population):
Uruguay
57
51.3
Panama
56
49.3
Cuba
54
49.4
Brazil

51.4
We observe that in Uruguay, Panama
and
Cuba
men
are actually
underepresented in colleges even if, as
we can see from the second column,
men and women are in approximately
the same number in the total
populations.
We could also look at the countries
with the lowest percentages:
Haiti

51 .5
50,6
Mexico

by Greg Wright
I don't particularly like PLASTIC. It
seems like it is everywhere these days. It
is 7% - 8% of all of the garbage that we
produce. I try to minimize the amount of
plastic that I buy and I only buy plastic
that I know I can recycle. Interestingly,
many of the characteristics that make
plastics such a nuisance in the waste
stream - i.e. their durability - are
advantageous for recycling. Unlike paper,
there is minimal waste or degradation to
the material in reprocessing.
Plastic recycling on campus has been
virbJally non-existent in the past. However,
last year we had our fmt plastic recycling
day in the housing area. This year, with
the help W ASHpirg, I hope that we can
expand our efforts.

Guatemala

50.2
The impression is, - again, that the
countries with the lowest percentages of
women among college students are the
least developed (with the exception of
Mexico) and that this cannot be
explained by the female/male ralio for
the whole population.
The idea that Latin America women
or women in other parts of the world are
worse off (or better off), relative to men,
than they are in the United States is too
simplistic. We would have to look with
respect to what ways, in what countries,
at what social levels, etc. It seems that
i.1l general the situation for women is
worst in the least developed countries.
It also probably true that women ~e
bener off in the higher social classes
(although this is not supported by the
previous statistics), which could explain
the relatively high number of women in
the legislatures of some of the countries.
There are several barriers to plastic
recycling on campus. The first has to do
with economics. The markets for plastic
will not come close to covering the cost of , - - - - - - - Cooper

Have you read the comics . lately?
No, I don't mean the ones in this fine
weekly, I'm referring to the dailies - like
The Seattle Times or The Seattle Post~
Intelligencer. If you have, then I might
make some sense to you. To others, read
a day or two. Maybe a whole month's
worth.
The comics, oh dear readers, have
become politicized. You got it, even
Family Circus. Just the other day, as I
read this particular comic, little Billy
commented on how the Vice President
couldn't spell "potato." The same goes for
The Wizard of Id. What's going on here?
When I pick up the comic section, I
expect to be entertained, not informed
about the latest arguments in social
. commentary. Have the cartoonists moved
beyond simple idealized humor, as
Peanuts still stick with, or are there no
more avenues to' explore?
I'
I{
Some twenty-five years ago, a young
cartoonist began writing and drawing an
overt political strip in a college rag on .the
east coast He · made headlines tackling
such issues as the Vietnam War, the
Laos/Cambodia massacres, and the Black
Panther movement. Who was the fellow?
None other than Garry Trudeau. Was he
moving in a direction never before trod?
Not even. Pogo, and even B.C. made
strikes and hits in social commentary in
the sixties. But, by the mid-seventies,
while Doonesbury was being shuffled off
to the editorial section of many
newspapers, Pogo died off (literally), and
B.C. dried up. What happened?
Not much. Not until about ten years
ago. To me, the new wave of social
commentary comics began with the now
famous strip Cathy drawn by Cathy
Guisewite. Here was a single woman,
living a single life, trying to survive
among a mother who wanted her married,
a boyfriend who wouldn't commit, and
friends getting married and consummating
with the intention of creating families. Ten
years later. Cathy is still single. Has she
changed? Very much so. Yet she still has
the tenacity to put up with her
noncommittal boyfriend, and has patience

to deal with her mother.
Another tUrning point was the
introduction of cartoonists other than men
- primarily white men - on the comics
page. Five years ago, '22 out of the 24
comics in The Seattle Times were drawn
and written by white men. Now, 18 are
drawn by men, 4 are mixed gender
partners, 3 by women, and 1 by a man of
color. Subjects change. They have to. No
more are the focuses on family bumblings
and cute children. Now, the comics
portray a man of color owning his own
business, two about separate(huh) single
women, many about teenagers and their

interesting picture of life. Many, like
Calvin & Hobbes and The Far Side are
still there for us as sheer entertainment
and fantasy, bu~ others do try and slide in
a little critique of what it's really like in
the lives of persons other than white men.
I kind of like it. I hope you do.
OK, so maybe James "MikJcy"
Wright isn't so mundane after all.

King of England. This is his reasoning:
"I am of English background. I had 2
parents, 4 grandparents, 8 greatgrandparents, ... , 2/1 ancestors (where n
is the number of generations that we go
backwards to in these calculations).
Considering that there is a new
generation approximately every 25
years, 600 years ago - in the 15thcentury - I had 224. ancestors.
22 4
ancestors is approximately 16 million
ancestors. The population of England in
the 15th-century was about 2.5
millions. So king Henry V (who lived
in the 15th-century) had to be one of
my ancestors.

Learning should
be political
In response to last week's article
"Why Should Learning Have to be
Political?"
Indeed your question is one that
raises a good discussion - even though I
feel your response was narrow in its view,
made me feel quite enraged by the time I
finished reading it, and negates to consider
the experiences of a large number of
people in our society. Because we live in
a white supremacy, to choose to be nonpolitical period is a privilege that comes
with the color of your skin·. If one is
white they can decide to live separate
from political thoughts, choices and
interactions and still experit';nce power and
respect from the authorities that shape and
place boundaries on our experiences of
reality.
The fact that education is political is
representative of the inequalities and
oppression that exist in the world.
Thousands of people repetitively struggle
with wanting to attend school and thus
make a better life for themselves and their
family, but are not able to because if they
don't work ALL DAY their siblings or
children will have no food to put into their
mouths. This problem is not unique only
to the "third world", there are people in
Thurston County who struggle under the
same sitUation. Just because it is not
happening in your own life does not mean
its not happening.
The politicalization of- education
seeds from and is perpetuated by issues of
oppression, in the USA racism is largely at
the core. White people have a hard time
seeing, admitting, and justifying that issues
of racism exist To be able to decide that
issues of oppression (which are always
political) are "not worth one's time"
purely comes from the privilege of choice.
Much learning is not innately political, and
in order to see the political dimensions of
information presented one must often have
a certain perspective. Learning is
transferred into being political as one takes
what they know and integrates it into their
level of ' moral, and thus action
determining, commitment. White people
must realize that when they question the
necessity or validity of life being political
that people of color in our society MOST
of the time 00 NOT have this same
privilege, or the choice.
The flyers saying "Disempower Rich
White Males" are a statement that should
not be taken as offensive to one who is
consciously and actively working towards
deprogramming the racism and sexism of
their minds, inherent to our society. It is
almost impossible to realize the depths and
dimensions of oppression when one is not

subjected to the greed, prejudice, and hate
that was born with the coming of white,
male organized institutions. It ' IS the ,
WHITE EST ABLISHMENT that
oppresses people of color - historically in
the formation of this country by slavery on
land stolen from the natives, and in
systems of authority and thought that have
oppressed people of color for -over 500
years. And it has been MEN that have and
do oppress women - look at the history of
Western medicine, and the motives behind
rape.
Even if your "rich white male"
friends are "darned nice fellows" a lot of
us don't really give a damn. Many of us
have friends we could classify in this way.
Some whites have realized the importance
of being critical of the ways in which we
and our friends impact society, and of our
connections to fibers in the web that cause
so many others unimaginable suffering. I
went to a workshop on racism last week
led by Ali Rashad Umrani, and one of the
statements that left an impact on me was
that one of the most effective ways to
remove the veils of ignorance, denial,
separation, and blindness that cover the
eyes of most ("all" might be a better
word) whites - especially thick over the
"Rich White Males'" eyes - is to be
spoken too and educated on the issues of
racism by another white person. I know,
, as a white person, it is often hard to see racism, let alone know how to
constructively confront, and then try to
educate someone about it in a way that
might actually effect them three weeks
down the road. This is one of the reasons
why when learning is political, we should,
especiaUy as privileged people, embrace
the information and LISTEN to the voices
that are telling us reality is different than
we experience it
Regarding your spew about dreads
and your i)lferences from the flyer, that I
believe says something to the effect of:
"white boy cut off your dreads ...you have
no suffering." It is a statement _that
inspires wonder, but I feel your thought
process in relation to it exemplifies one's
separation from the depths of suffering
other races of people have so severely
endured. My guess (and that of my friends
whom I discussed , this with) is that
historically they originated as a natural
response to certain hair types, and maybe
even more importantly - became part of a
"movement" by African originating people
as a way of NOT emulating whites, and
rejecting the stereotypes of 'beauty',
'clean' and 'unclean' that were pushed
onto them when they became a part of
white dominated culture.
Perhaps the person speaking to the
"white boy" is telling him that the
suffering his/her people have known and
currently struggle against is a kind that the
white Euro-American race does NOT
experience, and cannot even relate to. If
this white boy wanted to get closer to
black culture, defy and reject the white
dominated systems and stereotypes, and/or
get 'back to nature', then a superior and
real way to do it, rather than tangle his
hair, would be to first of all admit his
privilege and the privilege of all whites,
and then work: towards changing the
systems back to how they were when both
pre-colonial Americans and pro-colonial
Africans existed independently - before
Europeans totally imposed their greed,
separatist oriented ways and inhabitation
onto these and their lands. (I'm not
representing my own thoughts in this
statement about what a "superior and real
way ... " but rather what I interpreted to be
the thoughts behind this quote). '

Let Greeners take the skinheads bowling
by S.D. Carmichael
The first thing I have to explain is ,
what made me sit down and write this
article. It seems pretty obvious to me. '
Something was pissing me off.
I can sum up the source of my anger
in one brief statement: I think that for a
school that is famous for it's open
mindedness, liberal standings and radical
beliefs, the student body is a closed
minded social organization that would like
to limit the diversity of its community.
(No matter how often it tries to say
otherwise.)

I know it does. It angers even you
devout pacifists. I also know what you're
probably asking yourself right now: "What
right does this blind and ignorant fool
have to make such a broad generalization?
Who the fuck does he think he is?"
So it goes.
Let me tell you a little story...
A oung man was sitting in the
CAB dunng the fust week of classes this
year. He was a freshman. He was about to
go to the third class of his whole college
career. He sat alone at a little circular
table drinking a cup of coffee and eating

didn't think so and he most defmitely
wasn't eager to piss anyone off. He was
' dead tired. Militant action was no where
near his mind.
Somehow he still managed to make
some nearby stranger mad. Furious is a
better word.
The young man noticed this
individual as he slowly walke4 towards
him. Something in the eyes of the stranger
told the young man that he should be very
scared. He wasn't He felt that his privacy
was being invaded. If he had not been so
tired he would have gotten very pissed off
when the total stranger asked him this:
"Don't you think you're at the wrong
schoon"
,
The stranger implied quite obviously
that the thought the young.man was at the
wrong school Wouldn't that piss you off?
Eager to avoid any conflict, the
young man simply assured the stranger
that he was right where he really wished
to be. The stranger then wanted to know
to what affiliation the younp; man
belonged. Knowing quite well what the
stranger was getting at, the young man
stated that actually he was not a Skinhead.

Bush's Cuban isolation bill deemed unfair, wrong
by Lauren Petit
On Friday the 23rd of October,
George Bush signed a bill into law which
has the express purpose of isolating the
Cuban economy so that the country's
political leadership will fall. What that
really means is that basic goods like food
and medicine will become unavailable to
the island and its people will be the ones
to suffer. It is this suffering, this denial of
a means to subsistence, that the United
States government is counting on to force
Cuba to submit to the political will of the
U.S.
The "Cuban Democracy Act of 1992"
has three main pt:Ovisions to this effect: 1)
Any country which grants Cuba aid in any
form will be denied all aid from the U.S.,
2) Any subsidiary of a U.S. based
corporation which is operating on foreign
soil is forbidden from engaging in trade
with Cuba, and 3) Any vessel carrying
Cuban goods or passengers or which has
docked in a Cuban port, may not dock in
a U.S. port (including all U.S. "territories
and possessions'') for 180 days.
The bill has received much more
attention in other countries than the media
has afforded it within the U.S.- most of it
bad. Several countries have publicly ,
protested the bill, others, including Canada
and Mexico, have put laws on their books
to make it illegal for subsidiaries in their
countries to abide by the UlSI law. The
Cuban Democracy Act breaks international
law to which the U.S. is bound through
membership in the United Nations and in
the Organization of American States. It
also constitutes trade barriers and
economic cnercion which are in direct
conflict with international economic
agreements the U.S. is a party to,
including the General Agreement on
Tariffs and Trade and the pending North
American Free Trade Agreement.
The timing of the appearance of this
bill clearly shows the U.S. aims to be
imperialistic, not defensive as this
government has so long claimed. Hostility
against Cuba has been excused all along
by the assertion that it was a satellite of
the Soviet Union, strategically in position
to attack the United States and extend
Communist control to the Western
Hemisphere. With the Soviet Union no
longer in existence and most formerly
"Communist" states turning to some form
of capitalism, that excuse no longer holds.
Yet the U.S. government is going after
Cuba more aggressively than ever before.
Cuba has been able to assert its
independence and rejection of U.S.
domination for 33 years. The collapse of
its social and political system would mean
the collapse of a system that many have
learned from and held hope in. The U.S.
government's plan to undermine the
stability of the government of Cuba by
starving its people is wrong.
The Seattle/Cuba Friendshipment is
part of a national project by Pastors for
Peace to challenge this immoral policy. A
caravan of vehicles carrying humanitarian
aid will leave Seattle on the 7th of
November to join up with other caravans
from across the country and deliver the
supplies to the Cuban people. A cultural
event will be held to raise funds and
awareness in support of this action on
Friday, October 30 (tomorrow) at 8:30 pm
at the 1st Christian Church (7th and
Franklin). Don McIntosh, a Portland
activist, and Peter Bohmer, Evergreen
faculty, will show slides from recent trips
to Cuba and facilitate discussion. Food and
music will also be offered. All are invited
to join in support of the Friendshipment.

reduced Evergreen to being just a coUege.

Jaworski displays vocal talent
and wry wit in "Evergreen Blues"
by L.N. Pearson
If you missed Convocation, you
didn't just miss Jane, you missed the
ouna-hand, tell-it-like-it-is blues singer
Teresa Jaworski. Her original song, "the
Evergreen Blues" left nothing sacred: not
vegetable eaters, sexual confusion,
academic hysteria or the multicultural
facade. But of course, as an AfricanAmerican, vegetarian, doin' -a-contractthi~-quarter woman student at Evergreen,
she knows the subjects of her satire well.
With resounding voice and droll lyrics,
Teresa brought the house down.
Asked to sing at Convocation, she
felt the blues were especially apt for the
occasion. Her wry wit coupled with the
experience of the Everyday Bureaucratic
Life at Evergreen natuially inspired the
blues. Teresa says, "The reality of
academic life and the illusion of it on the
pages of the catalog are two very
different things." Convocation gave her
the opportunity to pose the question to
the administration and the student body,
"Are you just whistling Dixie?". She said
that she walked away feeling hope.
At Evergreen her studies have been
focused on music and Afro-american
literature. She is a third year student at
Evergreen and says, "People on the
whole have been very supportive have
helped me get through some really tough
times, .especially the Comm Building
hierarchy Jacinta McKoy and Charlotte
Wooldridge, that's Queen Latifah and
Ms. Charlotte to you. And the Crables:
Doranne Crable and Terry Setter have
attended every one of my performances,
and I'm thankful for their sIJPport."
~
Teresa began her musical career
cantoring in the Catholic Church
(sometimes three masses on Sundays).
She says, "I fmally decided 1 was tired
of feeling the overwhelming guilt and
wanted to see if 1 would grow hair on
my palms if I tried other kinds of music.
1 started doing various community
activities, learning classical guitar, and I
began to notice that religion and
spirituality were two different things."
Teresa got into the blues through
Tim Eickholt, one of the most seasoned
guitarists in the area. who hooked her up
with Pete Lira and his band "What's
Happening," with whom Eickholt also
plays. Lira, who is Pierce and Thurston
County Music Union president, has been
on the bandstand since he was eight and
has backed singers like Tina Turner and
Etta James. Teresa says "I've also been
fortunate enough to have two nf th ..
fmest mentors a starving musician could
ever want. The greatest thing about these
guys is that they show me what's up and
what's out there. They're truthful. The
real world of performance is way beyond
the comfort zone of the recital hall."
Teresa says she's experiencing the 'Little
Fish in the Big Pond Syndrome'.
Ask Teresa what the blues are, and
she'll tell you, "If you have to ask, you
can't sing them. If you know what I
mean." And if you know a collector'S
item when you see one, pick up a copy
of her single, "The Evergreen Blues"
(just $3!) at the bookstore or at Rainy
Day -- if you know what I mean.

What seemed like a millennium
ago, but what ' was probably only a few
short years ago, I wandered into one of
my favorite Spokane hangouts to see yet
another touring punk rock band scrape
together enough door money to make it
to the next stop on their trip. The name
of the band escapes me; it was an upstart
opening band which blew the doors off
the place, worked the crowd into a
frenzy, and won over a house full of new
fans.
What I witnessed that night was the
first rumblings of an eight piece
extravaganza from Coeur D'Alene, Idaho,
called Black Happy and they have been
driving crowds crazy ever since.
Their dream of packing houses in
Spokane was quicldy realized and with
the release of their latest full length E.P.
Friendly Dog Salad, they are now
packing some of Seattle's more
prominent clubs with fans equally
devoted as we once were. Their selfreleased album has also consistently
remained at the top of The Rocket's
Northwest Top Twenty since the
beginning of summer, edging out several
nationally known big name Seattle bands.
This, I would hope, would suggest that
they too are poised on the edge of
breaking it big.

THE PUBLIC EYE
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS
LACEY CINEMAS
by Brad Watkins
.
Sometimes Hollywood can go too
far in its desperate search for material.
Such is the case in the new film, The
Public Eye starring Joe Pesci and Barbara
Hershey. What makes this movie so
annoying is the fact that it takes a real
person's photographs and makes up a
fictional character's story. Of course these
tactics are nothing new in Hollywood, but
they really went overboard in this case.
The photographs used here are those
of Arthur Fellig (Wee gee) , a struggling
photographer who roarned the streets of
New York during the '30s and '408 taking
images of crime, homeless people, and
other such work. During the day he would
work various odd jobs before going out
into the night, searching for pictures of
people as they were.
The film itself is based very loosely
around that aspect of reality. However,
Weegee's real name isn't used at all.
Instead, Joe Pesci plays Leon Bernstein, a
tabloid photographer who lives in a rundown apartment in New York City
sometime around the mid '40s. Like
Weegee, Bernstein develops fIlm in the
back of his Chevrolet, and is the only
civilian to possess a police radio. Right
from the beginning, the story establishes
that Bernstein is well known to many
people (criminals and police alike) as ''The
Great BernzinL" He always gets the jump
on everyone because he knows where the
action is.
From this simple introduction the
movie develops into a murder mystery
surrounding a nightclub owner, Kay Levitz
(Barbara Hershey), who asks Bernstein to
investigate a man claiming to be her dead
husband's partner. Bernstein eventually
goes to the apartment of this man, only to
discover his murder. The show then '
becomes hopelessly predictable as
Bernstein digs deeper into the mystery.
Eventually, he realizes that the
supposed dead partner was involved in a
conspiracy by a rival family to wipe out
another entire mafia family. On top of all
this, a love interest develops between Leon
and Kay - golly, what a surprise - thereby
creating more conflict for our hero.
So, as one might expect, pressure is
applied to both characters as their
involvement in this mystery grows.
Bernstein finds out about a secret meeting
between the Spoleto family (that wish to
wipe out the other .family). He pho~
graphs some implicating images as they
leave a house. He then gives the negatives
to Kay so that sh~ would give them to his
edUor in case of his death. When the
doomed family gathers together : fQr one
last time at an Italian restaurant, Bernstein .
. goeS out and photographs the hit himself
from the inside of a broom cloSet as it is
taking place. The movie ends with
Bernstein becoming . a famous
photographer, but I won't give you the
satisfaction of knowing whether ' the love
interest works out or not. Go find out for
yourself.
The Public Eye is an entertaining
movie. While the story itself is contrived,
it nonetheless goes along very quickly. It
was shot almost entirely on location in the
older sections of cities like Chicago, New
York and Cincinnati; therefore, the mm
has a strong '40s look and feel. Still, I
cannot forgive the industry for not at least
acknowledging Weegee as a real person.
They had no right to use his photographs
in the show, either. The acting is
sufficient, I guess, but really not worth
getting excited over. However, if you like
entertainment, men in the audience might
find Barbara Hershey particularly sexy.
She wears low-cut dresses throughout the
entire film which flaunt a large portion of
her breasts; although she plays the strong,
intelligent and sensitive type. Unfortunately, most women viewing the mm will
probably fmd Joe Pesci about as sexy as a
pineapple. Oh well, at least the film has
contrasts.
Brad Watkins has gone temporarily
insane from watching cheap and trashy
films.

TOM WAITS
ISLAND RECORDS
by Sara Steffens
A friend of mine, we'll call him
Petey for the purposes of discussion here,
first shared Tom Waits's music with me
when I was a starry-eyed freshperson: a
babe in the woods. Well, okay, I wasn't
that innocent, just a little naive. I had
never imagined such music could exist
entirely without my knowledge. Waits is
quite simply a musical genius.
It's always an anxious moment to
buy a new Waits album. You wonder if
his voice has yet slipped from brandy
smoothness into the Kermit the Frog land
of Ax} Rose's larynx. You worry that it
won't be the same, that Tom is turning
into one of those artists of whom people
sort of classic
say, "but his old music, man ... "
Against the odds, Bone Machine is . alamiing- regularity.
The vocals on "All Stripped Down"
phenomenal. I must have listened to at at
least 20 times from the moment I left are truly inspired. Inexplicably, they
remind me of Welcome Back. KOller. The
Disc Jockey last Thursday.
In general, Bone Machine has the lyrics to this tune are a sort of casserole
sort of sketchy, fragmented sound that of funky street . lingo and old style

fans will recognize from Rain Dogs.
Only Waits. the Raymond Carver of
Bone Machine is the raucous grate of a
carnival midway, the conviction of a
Sunday service and the caramel sweetness
of autumn. Know what I mean? From the
opening clickety-c~k and growl of
"Earth Died Screaming," I
was
enraptured. You must buy this album, if
only to hear the masterful Waits whine
that comprises the chorus of this song.
Next is Ihe obligatory suicidal cynic
number. "Dirt in the Ground," however,
is saved from 1eenage suburban gutterpunk squalor by its mellifluous sax ttack
and a bite of compassion. (Or is it
resignation?)
"~urder in the Red Barn" is the

musicians, could possibly pull this off.
My very favorite track remains, for
this week at least, "Jesus Gonna Be
Here." Apologies to the easily ennui-ed,
only a lengthy quote will suffice. "Well,
Jesus will be herelBe here soon/He's
gonna cover us up ' with leaves/With a

eyes open/So I can see my Lord/!'m

Does "Who Are You" remind
anyone else of a popular Vonnegut story?
Let me know, valiant readers!
Another little blessing of Bone
M pc hine is the sporadic use of pedal
steel guitar. Sporadic is the ' key word
yet, you might want to ease into the
experience with an earlier album, like
Blue Valentine or Nighthawks at the
Diner. (Which every serious music lover
should have in her or his collection
anyway.) If you feel ·the need to be
really, really PC about everything, you
could be offended. Waits doesn't really
care if he hurts .your feelings. Fair
warning.
Of course true art is never
innocuous. And context is essential.
Listen to all the albums: Waits creates
his masterpiece in the translation of his
own crazy, grinding, lurid, religious,
romantic vision.

WOlDan Geoducks delDolishes Okanogan 4-1
by Amy Freeto
Buoyed by their victory over
Linfield College last weekend, a confident
Geoduck 'team buried Okanogan College
(B.C.) 4-1 iast SatUrday here at Evergreen.
After thirty-five minutes of fairly
even play, K~lly Lindgren blasted in a
right-footed shot off of a line-drive cross
from Kristen Gillanders. The goal was
created by Gillanders' challenge for the
ball in the air. She brought it down and
took off down the wing, when a shout
from Lindgren prompted an early cross
and the resulting goal.
The euphoria of a 1-0 lead was
short-lived, as two minutes later the
Okanogan women came back and knocked
one by the stunned goalkeeper, Stacy
Watennan. The first half ended with the
teams in a deadlock.
At half-time, intensity was the main
theme and the Evergreen women
committed themselves to go out and put
Okanogan under pressure immediately at
the sound of the second half whistle. Only
forty seconds into the half, Kelly Lindgren
penetrated the Lakers' defense, deftly
dribbling around three players,
"nutmegging" the last one, and slotting the
ball home to put the Geoducks ahead 2-1.
From then on the game belonged to
Evergreen, the only question being could
they score again and ice the victory.
Numerous opportunities were created ~
the Geoduck attacking third as Sara
Gagnon, Cylvia Hayes, and Kristen
Gillanders sent balls across the face of the
Lakers' goal. Finally, twelve minutes
before the end, Gillanders managed to
Umrani reaches
assemblage
said MacIver.
The way that Umrani set up the
workshop without explaining his reasons
until the end was also effective for
MacIver.
"It showed the whites what it was
like to be denied your own experiences,
your own history," said MacIver. "I felt
like he got his point across clearly and it
made people feel - that was one of his
objectives, to make people feel and when
you feel you understand better. Personally,
it made me feel there was a lot of hope .
and that here was a place to start."
George Hennosillo, second year
student and student resident manager, also
states the feelings of reaffmnation and
clarification.
"I think it illuminated a lot of things
for me, mainly the power of oppression
and that I wasn't going crazy, that in
actuality these things were real."
He also went on to say that he was
glad that Umrani came to speak as he
made it clear that white males were
causing the oppression and that it was
unacceptable.
"It made me realize that in some
minute way there is hope," Hennosillo
said.

powerful experience,it definitely made me
think. Three hours of intense workshop I was dazed, I had a headache. I rode
home with about five other people and the
car was basically silent because we were
thinking about what he had said."
However, no matter how safe the
environment which Umrani so
painstakingly created, there were still
feelings of apprehension. "During the
workshop I felt very conspicuous. I have
to admit I was worried that he would
somehow single me out because I'm a
white male, and a lot of the workshop was
centered around the role of the white male
as oppressor. I was defmitely examining
my role in the whole racist schema," said
Remis.
For people of color validation and
regeneration of hope were the main
feelings that came up for them.
Says Javier O'Brien, Student Events
Coordinator, "I have things I've been
saying to friends and acquaintances ...this
workshop affmned that what I was saying
was true."
Joanna MacIver feels that whites
may have benefited in being made aware
of their position in society.
"As a person of color it was very

also exemplifies the success of the well
manufactured downplaying of both the
significance and impact of pornography
and media images on all women. The
statement by your (white male) friend
"What's wrong with a little domination
once in a while" as the two of you were
leaving the discussion forum after
watching "Still Killing us Softly" really
angers me. I mean, shit, I would have
maybe thought it was "funny" in middle
school and probably only because I
wouldn't have yet had the perspective or
self-empowennent to say or do anything
other than laugh kind-of weirdly about it.
What IS ' wrong with domination is that it
is a totally destructive force when dealing
with people who have been and are
oppressed because it has absolutely no
awareness of the psychology of oppression
and the concepts of equality. Domination
has been the pointed blade that has left its
bloody mark allover this world.
The sickest part of this joke is the
symbolism of its context - that it came out
of the mouth of a white male (does he not
realize that the blades that dripped with
blood in the creation of our society were
held by the hands of white men?) and that
the two of you would laugh at it after
viewing . a document that blatantly
exemplifies the exploitation and sicknesses
of pornography . a male dominated
industry, oppressing and often times

they did, it shows that they are not just
stupid fucked-up wieners, but are wholeheartedly attempting to subvert the
students constitutional rights. You cannot
be arrested for having a band, party, or a
bunch of people in your donn! It's a
college Housing rule, not a frickin' law. If
they called the police and asked them to
arrest a student for having a band or too
many people in his or her donn, the police
would laugh in their faces. You can
however be served an evictiQn notice for
not following the Housing rules you
signed your name to when you mistakenly
purchased your Housing contract.
I don't think that calling Housing or
Bob Carlson will do too much good. Their
actions in implementing these idiotic
policies tend to indicate they don't really
care what the students think. They
obviously weren't smart enough to put all
the musicians in the same buildings,
thereby negating the need to have their
contradictory little band rule in the first
slam in a Lindgren cross from the left side
to put Evergreen comfortably ahead 3-1.
Ten n:tinutes later, ' it was Kelly Lindgren
again, scoring her third goal of the match
and her flfSt hat trick of the season. The
final whistle blew with the score 4-1 in

perpetuation of wife and child abuse, rape,
molestation, eating disorders, and 'body
image' complexes that probably you
and/or your friends suffer from.
Your friend probably threw the
words out without really thinking, or
caring, about what he was saying ... helI, a
good laugh is great, and to him (and
obviously to you) these are the kinds of
things which make you "feel laughter".
The biggest joke about what he said is that
there is nothing funny about this statement
at all except maybe that the privileges the
two of you experience on a daily basis are
kept in place and in order by the types of
attitudes reflected in your friends
statement. Maybe what your friend was
really thinking is "what's wrong with
leadership, initiation, motivation and
assertion?" These are great - and they are
a far cry from domination.
All of us must look beyond the
scopes' of our own realities, and all of us
will undoubtedly at times live a
hypocritical way of life, but we must at
least try, and even better yet EDUCATE
OURSELVES, and not reject "political"
just because it brings up issues that are
controversial and challenging. All
oppression is well masked by those whose
interests it serves, and the masks are well
kept up, despite the images we on the

Skull and crossbones may be the Halloween cookie
by Diane Conrad
Curiosity several years back about
what food. writers lOuted as Halloween
treats 60 years ago led to the discovery of
a cookie that ought to be the Halloween
cookie.
I immediately was taken with the
recipe when I came across it in the
microfilm files of a major Honolulu
newspaper. It had the perfect name and the
photo of cookies shaped like flattened
skulls and tiny bones was a gem.
I didn't get around to making the
cookies until last year, which solidly sold
me on the recipe.
It's actually fun converting cutout
rounds of dough into a skull appearance
by tugging at slits strategically placed for
eyes, nose and a gaping mouth. The
tugging to create that skull look also
results in more of a skull shape. There
was a certain kick to forming bones out of
the dough left from cutting out rounds.
These are filled cookies. The filling
of fruit, nuts and spices (and no sugar!)
separates a skull cookie from a plain
round. The bones are scattered on a plate
with the assembled skulls.
I found it best to assemble the
cookies just before serving so that the
cookie part doesn't soften. But if you like
soft cookies, assemble to your taste's
desire. I kept the cookies and the filling in
separate airtight containers.
Also the full flavor of these cookies
depends, in part, upon being made with
butter. Like many butter-based cookies,
the flavor intensifies with keeping. The
skulls, plain rounds and bones are good
the day they're baked. But they're great a
couple of days later. The filling flavor also
deepens after a couple of days.

Rabid Grannies:
it's THAT bad
by &th "Skippy" Long
During my first year at Evergreen
I had this friend who constantly rambled
on about some film titled Rabid
Grannies. She claimed that it was "the
worst mm in the hislOry of the world"
and she also claimed that because of this,
it was
It is a late '70s, low-budget, British
cheeseball horror flick with just a hint of
the occult thrown in for good measure.
The accents are so heavy that not even
the queen could understand the first 15
minutes. The acting is worse than the
Comerstone Pre-school production of
Jesus Christ Superstar.
Rabid Grannies revolves around the
birthday of two aging, twin matriarchs
and the party thrown by their golddigging relatives. Nearly the everyone has
arrived at the family mansion for a
rousing evening of brown-nosing and
butt-kissing all in hopes of getting a slice
of the old bats' inheritance. The only
relate that isn't there is a long-lost
nephew who is some sort of whacked-out
"black sheep" of the clan. He has,
however, sent a package that manages to
transform the old biddies into grotesque,
ravenous, blood-sucking, vile monsters
bent on eating all of their various and
sundry relates.
The movie continues with the
family members being killed off one-byone with the absolute worst special
effects known to humans. This mm gives
the term "low-budget" a new definition.
My thirteen year old brother could come
up with better effects with a ketchup
bottle and a water pistol!
Eventually, the rabid grannies are
defeated, which leaves no room for a
sequel, and the movie ends with only the
young grandson surviving. Thankfully. the
movie is over.
If you can frod this film anywhere
then I suggest that you rent it, find your
worst enemy and force him or her to sit
through the entire thing! It's THAT bad.
Seth "Sldppy" Long wrote this
article as sort of a tribute to the friend
who shared Rabid Grannies with him.
Frankenhooker
lurches around
by Cindy Laughlin
Written and directed by Frank
Henonlotter. Frankenhooker is defmitely
a must-see for B-rated horror fans
everywhere.
In the fateful opening scenes, brideto-be Elizabeth Shelly, played by Patty
Mullen, gets shredded to pieces by a
remote power lawn mower that was to be
a gift for her father's birthday from
Elizabeth and fl8Dcee Jeffrey Franken
(James Lorinz). With all the confusion
surrounding · the puzzle of Elizabeth's
corpse, the prized head gets lost amidst
the refuge. In the spirit of the classic
horror flick, Frankenstein, the forlorn
bio-engineer and failed med student
attempts to put the pieces of his deceased
loved one (as well as pieces from a few
other sources) back together again.
With bouts of self-mutilation, angry
pimps and drug dealers, and street-comer
profits, this movie has everything. This
girl gives Frankenhooker a thumbs up.
Cindy Laughlin is a vegetarian. You
might see her happy face behind a movie
ticket window around town.
1 cup chopped walnuts
6 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons cornstarch
1h teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
To make skulls and bones: Cream butter,
add sugar and cream together thoroughly.
Add beaten eggs. pumpkin and vanilla and
beat until thoroughly mixed. Add flour
that has been sifted again with salt, baking
soda and mace. Mix dry ingredients into
butter mixture.
Divide dough into several pieces.
Place a piece on a well floured board.
Dust dough and rolling pin lightly with
flour. Roll dough out thin. Cut with 2~- to
3-inch round cookie, biscuit cutter or even
a large-mouthed glass. Cut an even
number of rounds. Save scraps. Repeat
process with all dough.
Convert half of the rounds into
skulls. Cut small holeS for eyes, a vertical
slit for a nose and a gash for a mouth.
Place cookies on cookie sheets. Pull down
mouth gash to give appearance of an open
mouth. Tug eyes lightly to create skull
sockets. Spread nose slit slightly to create
skull nose opening.
Bake skulls and plain rounds in
preheated 400-degree F. oven 12 to 14
minutes.
In the meantime, roll crossbones
from pieces of scrap and form knobby
ends on each bone. Place on cookie sheet
and bake as you baked skulls.
Remove baked cookies from sheets
and cool on racks (you can use a cool
oven shelf - removed from the oven as a cooling rack).
Malee and cool fIlling.
Spread cooled fIlling on plain
rounds. Top with skull. Serve with
crossbones.
.
To make fIlling: Pit prunes and cut into
small pieces. In saucepan, combine orange,
prune liquid, nutS, butter, cornstarch, salt
and cinnamon. Stir until well blended.
Bring to a boil, cook stirring until thick,
about 5 minutes. Cool.
