Rape suspect
still in custody
by Bryan Connors
The Thurston County Sheriff has
released no new information on the
alleged rape of a woman student on
Sept. 15., near the trail to the Organic
farm. More information should be
available within the month when a court
date will be set. If the suspect, Jason
Rice, waves his right to a speedy trial,
the date when more information will
become available will change.
A woman alleged that Rice, a part
time employee of North West Food
Service, raped her at an encampment
were Rice had been illegally been living.
For more information on this story, refer
to Sept. 26, Oct. 3 and Oct. 10, CPJs.
Rice is still being held on one count
of second degree rape, and a bond has
been set at $20,000.
The CPJ is monitoring this story,
and will continue to keep the community
informed of any new information as it
comes out.
Bryan Connors covers security issues
for the CPJ.
For all those interested there will be
a workshop, for both men and women,
on rape issues this Tuesday, Oct. 29,
from 7 to 9 pm in the TESC Lecture
Hall Rotunda.

Address Correction Requested

by Ruth Frobe
The women's soccer team added one
win and one loss to the 1991 season
record this weekend, beating Green River
Community College 4-1 and losing to
Whitworth college 3-1. Kerry Holden
scored two goals and Sonja Rogneby and
Kelly Lindgren tallied one each as
Evergreen outshot Green River 18-10.
Melinda Baxter was credited with two
assists in Saturday's victory. Despite a
strongly played second half and a
beautiful goal scored by Kirsten Roberts,
Evergreen was unable to get past
Whitworth on Sunday, and the loss
eliminated the Geoducks from the
opportunity
to
play
post-season.
Although Evergreen has yet to face two
district opponents, Whitworth and PLU
have already secured district playoff
berths.
With two weeks and four games left
in the 1991 season, the Geoduck's record
stands at 5-8. The women travel to
Eastern Washington this weekend for
district games with Central Washington
and Whitman.
Ruth Frobe is the women's soccer
coach.

WASHINGTON - Proposed cuts in
higher education spending have drawn
criticism from state legislators.
The state's projected revenue is about
$223 million below the figure that the
Legislature used earlier this year to write
the two-year budget. The governor's
budget director, Led McComb, proposed
welfare cuts, selective hiring freezes for
state agencies, and cuts in enrollment
increases to reduce the budget by $205
million.

Campus flyers
waste paper
With our school facing budget cuts
and our world facing energy crunches, I
believe Evergreen students can help
reduce waste on campus. A small but
effective step would be to reduce the
number of flyers posted on bulletin
boards. Why do I constantly see six or
more flyers posted on one bulletin board
advertising the same dance or workshop?
Perhaps it is pretty to arrange the ads in
a geometric, multi-colored fashion, but it
also contributes to wasted ink and paper.
Before plastering the walls about the
next punk show, please consider how
many flyers are truly necessary. Please
trust that passers-by can read and don't
need to be inundated with information.

'People of Color"
acceptable label
This is a letter to the Evergreen
community, and is in response to an
opinion piece written by Dante
Salvatierra (Oct. 10 CPJ). I mention that
this is a letter to the community because
I believe Dante's opinion has sent mixed
messages to the community that Dante
has described as non-color.
He mentions how nice is was for
someone to come up with such an
accurate group of word to describe a
populous that has been refereed to by
minorities. He seems to imply that this
phrase was termed by non-"minorities"
when, in actuality, this phrase was
chosen by a group of people who were
tired of being referred to in such
negative terms. To be lesser than, such
as in importance, rack, or even stature
would be offensive to any other group
who were referred to in this way. So
why is it when people color choose to
identify in a reaffirming way, we almost
always come under attack.
I realize that there are people of
color here at Evergreen who come from
communities where they were not the
"minority" and did not have to challenge
that concept To them, this phrase may
seem a bit odd, but to those of us who
struggle with a word that classifies us as
inferior, it is important and essential that
we choose a word or phrase that is less
offensive. I have never heard any person
of color comment that this is a perfect
form of identification, rather that it is a
process towards equality in this society
of euro-dominated language.
As far as Dante's comment about it
being intolerable for people of color to
harass euro-americans (insert whatever
choice is less offensive to you, it is your
choice after all) because of historical
oppression, could it be that he

Accusations
unjustified
This letter is in response to Brian
Keith's letter appearing in the October 17,
1991 issue of the CPJ, attacking the
faculty and, to a lesser degree, the
administration with accusations of
homophobia, racism and sexism.
Arguing a point early in your
letter, I must ask: is it really the duty of
the faculty and the student body to say
there is no room for homophobia at
Evergreen? If I'm homophobic, should I
not be permitted to attend Evergreen? In
other words, should a student who is
homophobic be forbidden an education
because of their sexual beliefs?
For that matter, is homophobia
(and by extension, racism and sexism)
necessarily a crime? Please note the
distinction between being homophobic,
racist or sexist and performing acts and
making decisions based on homophobia,
racism and sexism. The former is not a
crime. The latter is.
I am not arguing that people who
are physically or verbally abusive should
not be encouraged to stop, either by
charisma or law, but I am arguing that
one who is homophobic is not a criminal
and should not be treated as one.
Arguing a later point in your
letter, again, I ask; is it really the
responsibility of the faculty to educate all
students in homophobia, racism and
sexism?
Or is it the faculty's
responsibility to teach the students what
they are paying their tuition to learn? If
I want to learn about society and its
problems, I'll take the class America and
Why It Sucks.
If I want to learn
Calculus, I'll take Calculus. I don't want
to learn Calculus in America and Why It
Sucks, so is it really fair to demand that
the faculty teach something that's not a
part of their subject?
Trial Balloons occur every year.

absence of a specific program can really
be indicative of a homophobic faculty
member. On the other hand, I cannot

guarantee that a given faculty member is
not homophobic. But by the same token,
I do not feel that your conclusion that
some faculty members are homophobic is
justified and furthermore, your implied
conclusion that these faculty members are
influential enough to affect Evergreen's
entire curriculum seems even less likely.
While I find the disfiguring of
the archway to be repellent in its

anonymity, I nevertheless feel that a
thinly veiled attack on the faculty of this
campus for not adjusting the attitudes of
their students or forbidding those
unadjustable students to enter campus is
completely unwarranted and in fact, may
serve to hurt the cause you wish to
promote, rather than support it.

Brain Boy debugs buttons
Dear Brain Boy,
What are the scroll lock and SysRq
keys for on an IBM compatible keyboard
for? Do they serve any human function?
--Doug Smith & Paul Henry, TESC
Dear Doug & Paul,
The scroll lock key (with its exciting
scroll lock green display light) serves
basically the same function as the break
key or as pressing Control-S - to stop
the flow of quickly scrolling information
(as in a file directory) from flying off
the top of the screen before you can read
it. On the other hand, the SysRq key, as
you correctly surmised, serves "no
human purpose" - at least in MS-DOS.
It stands for "system request" and is
application specific. It can be used in
UNIX to change between virtual terminal
sessions. As per the seeming superfluous
nature of the scroll lock key, one can
only guess that it's main purpose is to
keep an aesthetic sense of regularity on
the keyboard (thanks to the helpful
Computer Center Green Vests on this
baffling matter).
Dear Brain Boy,
If a tree falls in a forest, and no
one's around to hear it, does it make a
sound?
-Woodsy Owl
Dear Woodsy,
Ah, the perenial
metaphysical
question! What I'm curious about is how
many people haven't heard this question
at one time or another. Some time ago
on the Tonight Show with Johnny
Carson, Johnny addressed this question
and said (reading from some "learned
source") that according to quantum
mechanics, the tree doesn't even need to
fall. More succinctly, "If a tree is in a
forest and no one is around to observe
it...is it there?" My feeling is that the
tree actually does push-ups in a puddle
of banana yogurt when no one is there,
but that's just me. In the words of Jesse
Jackson: The question is moot. But
thanks to Woodsy for showing that Brain
Boy is not limited to matters of pure
fact...he can also make wild conjectures!

Dear Brain Boy,
Why doesn't non-photo blue print?
Why ask why? (Try Bud Dry)
-Cat Kenney, TESC
Dear Cat,
Here at the CPJ, we are all familiar
with the "non-reproducing blue" pens and
pencils which we use to mark off ad
space, etc. Some feel that it is just the
light value of the blue which causes it
not to show up. Actually, at the time of
photographing the CPJ, film is used
which is programmed to be blind to color
values of blue, grey and green. This way
we can make the above-mentioned
corrections. Photocopy machines are not
blind to these values, so you can
photcopy something (making it black,
which does reproduce) and then have it
photographed and printed.
Why ask why? Fie on ye, Cat.
Personally I'm vexed at this twaddle
which beer companies pay some lackey
to concoct and smear all over us.
According to Socrates, the unexamined
life is not worth living. And besides, if
you hadn't asked why, I couldn't answer
it and I might die or something.

complete with all Frank Zappa products.

Yes, the above is an address, you
put it on the front of an envelope.
Memorize this particular one for you
never know when its use will come in
handy for releasing prisoners of
conscience in the Republic of China.
One prisoner, Ms. Long Xianping a
teacher at Xiangtan University was sent
to prison in December, 1989 for her
"counter-revolutionary" activities. No, she
didn't take part in any of the prodemocracy demonstrations in Beijing, but
she did become deeply upset as news of
the June 4 massacre spread. Afterwards

she made a speech condemning the
massacre and participated in a traffic
stopping public protest. These were the
only reasons the government gave for her
arrest.
So now you know the situation. We

Creepy Point Journal

by Chris Bader
Every town has its haunts;
frightening, decrepit houses about which
hang all manner of frightening rumors. I
have yet to find a town that doesn't have
a house purportedly occupied by the
ghost of a murdered lover, and a shack
which supposedly holds demons brought
into the world by foolish teenagers
playing with magic.
Olympia has the same kind of
stories, but for this Halloween issue of
the CPJ, I decided to be a little more
creative. The three reputed haunted
houses I have compiled for you are
located at three of Olympia's favorite
spots: The Seven Gables Restaurant, The
Urban Onion, and The State Theater....
Atop a picturesque hill on West Bay
Drive in Olympia sits The Seven Gables.
The large and beautiful old home
that houses the popular restaurant was
built by George B. Lane in the late
1890s. After Lane passed away, the
building sat vacant for many years until
it became an alcohol rehabilitation center.
The current owners of the Seven
Gables took over the building over a
decade ago. The building was renovated
and remodeled. A large kitchen was
added and, ironically, what was once the
rehabilitation center's main recovery
room became the new restaurant's bar.
Many employees of the Seven
Gables have reported strange experiences
while working in the restaurant.
Dan, once the Gable's bartender,
claims that the house seems to have
"moods" and a mind of its own. On
some nights, "at least once a week", he
says, the house gets really noisy. There
were occasions when the bangs, creaks,
and other mysterious sounds made him
want to hang up his apron and run.
Dan's strangest experience is that of
having his name called by an unseen
person. Many times he heard someone
whisper his name, only to turn around
and find nobody present. Several
employees have had similar experiences,
often when working alone in the
restaurant.
Sally, a part owner of the Gables,
lived and worked in the building for
several years and often heard strange
noises which kept her awake at night.
She finally decided to move, but not, she
says, because of ghosts. She simply
found it too stressful to live and work in
the same location.
Sally's strangest experience occurred
on the Saturday before Christmas in
1986. She and an employee, Tim, were
alone at the bar. It was very late at
night and the two were closing the
restaurant.
As Sally and Tim passed by an
archway which leads to the kitchen, they
both observed a strange figure.
Near the kitchen doorway was a tall,
thin, misty form in the shape of a person.
The head and shoulders of the entity
were well defined, but the legs tapered
off and were hazy; "sort of like Casper
the ghost," mentioned Sally. The being's
facial features were also indistinct.
Sally and Tim looked at one another
in amazement and when they looked back
the shape had disappeared.
Several years ago a local medium

visited the restaurant and proclaimed it to
be "full of ghosts," including the spirit of
a young lady who likes to sit on the bar
stools. But, despite the reported
abundance of ghouls at the Gables, Sally
and Tim are the only people to have ever
seen one of them.
The Urban Onion, a restaurant in
downtown Olympiads also rumored to be
home to several ghosts.
Brendon, an Evergreen student worked
at the Onion for several years and told
me about some of his experiences.
Brendon had heard stories about the
eatery's ghosts well before he worked
there. "Everyone has a story to tell," he
said.
Most "ghost" sightings take place at
night, when an employee is closing alone,
as they do at The Seven Gables. Workers
report glimpsing people in their peripheral
vision, that quickly disappear. The ghosts
are often described as "women in long
white dresses."
Brendon especially recalls one
evening, when he was working late,
closing the restaurant alone. No one else
was in the building and the doors were
locked. Suddenly, he heard a loud crash
as if something had been slammed
against a wall. He ran into the hallway
from which he heard the noise and saw
a broom lying on the ground; one that is
usually kept in a closet at the other end
of the hall. Brendon thinks that, perhaps,
one of the ghosts threw the broom
against the far wall.
Employees at the State Theater in
downtown Olympia have also heard
mysterious noises while working late at
night. Apparently if one is afraid of
ghosts it is best not to be stuck working
nights.
Kenny, who worked at the Theater,
reported to me that its projectors often go
down for no reason. "They shut down by
themselves all the time and can't be
turned back on," he said. After a while
the projectors will resume operation on
their own. Many employees attribute the
projector's behavior to ghostly mischief.
Several night custodians have been
frightened by mysterious noises, felt cold
drafts in certain areas of the building,
and have seen lights go on and off by

Simplictssimus, 1901

themselves. One janitor, Gary, told Kenny
that he had found the remains of an old
city morgue while exploring the back of
the theater. He claimed that he squeezed
through a very small crawlspace that
eventually opened into a muddy room,
with a large, bolted down table in its
center and wooden crates that resembled

caskets strewn about.
Unfortunately the story is not
verifiable, as Gary no longer works for
the theater, and no other employee has
reported such a room.

Have a happy and safe Halloween!!
Chris Boder is a scary boy, and we at
the CPJ love him for it.

Be black and white and read all over
by Edward Martin in
It's the time of year that all pagans
love and even the devoutly religious are
forced to endure. It's Halloween, the
scariest night of the year, when little
kids get dressed up as all their favorite
heroes and villains and shout for candy.
As if there weren't enough candy in the
world, now you have to go and toss
some more their way so they'll shut up
and leave you alone.
But fear not, for this year, you still
have the opportunity to garner a little bit
of that super sugar-fest yourself, just by
dressing up in a costume, modifying
your voice so that it resembles the
average eight-year old's and practicing
such phrases as "Hey, look what I got!"
and "Wow! Where'd you get THAT?"
and "Oh, don't go to apartment (fill in
your apartment number here). The lady
there has a gun."
I know what you must be thinking.
Where can you get a costume in size 48,
without having to drive all the way to a
Seattle costume shop? The answer, O
Clever One, is right in your hands.
The Cooper Point Journal, besides
being this community's most respected
defender of the First Amendment, can
also double in a pinch as an amazing
variety of costumes and accessories. With
a little paint here, some glue there,
maple syrup here, staples and a rubber
hose there, you can construct and enjoy
a wide variety of objects for Halloween
that might very well serve you into the
next decade (if you're not careful). And
the cost is so minimal that you might
leap from your chair, exclaiming, "Yes!
I can do that!."
Here's a brief list, compiled between
my apartment and my first class Monday
morning. It is by no means exhaustive,
but if you're really a college student, I'm
certain that you can come up with some
other pretty creative ideas.

• Lick your favorite photographs
from the CPJ and apply them to your
body as bargain tattoos. This can cause
confusion in large crowds and if you
tattoo yourself with our cover, be
careful; someone may confuse you for an
actual issue of the paper and tear you
open to find the comics page. Imagine

their surprise when they find your colon
instead. Imagine your surprise.

• Construct life-sized paper mache'
models of Clarence Thomas and Anita
Hill. Have them lunge at each other
purely for entertainment's sake. For a
more challenging option, construct lifesized paper mache' models of the entire
Judiciary Committee. Think of something
shrewd to do with them. Pose them.

• Staple a lot of CPJ's to your
clothes and roll down the street, cleverly
disguised as a prop in a ghost-town
massacre movie. Be forewarned that you
will not be able to retain certain aspects
• Clever kids will be able to construct
of your person while you are doing this,
a
hat
from the CPJ. We used to have an
such as your stash of candy, your wallet,
example outside of our door. It might
your keys, etc.
• Put on a jogging suit (remember have been eaten by now. After
those? The seventies are on their way constructing a hat, consider what you can
do with the hat. If you were to get
back...) or a sweat suit that's a couple of
sizes too big for you. Now, stuff it with another 35 or so friends together (how
lots of balled up CPJs. At this point, the CPJ can draw people together... much
your costume may take one of several like the TV does during a war) and make
directions. You may wish to construct a hats for them all, then you can perform
large broadsword in metal shop (or just an impromptu rendition of The Pirates of
using cardboard and tinfoil if you want to Penzance out on Red Square. You have
to sing all the songs, too, not just the

can be Conan the Barbarian. Or, you may
wish to dress your roommate up in the
exact same type of outfit and then you
can trick or treat as Claude van Damme.
Or you may wish to have someone
spray-paint you green (cover your eyes)
and you can be Lou Ferrigno. Normally,
this would be a pretty easy costume, but
remember, you have to get the right

to read. See which section of the paper is
their favorite one to touch. Unlike getting
together and singing The Pirates of
Penzance, this might best be done in
smaller groups. It comes highly
recommended.
So, it looks like I've managed to cover
a few bases here, but I'm sure that for
every item I figured out, someone's
likely to have another clump of ideas.

Have a corny
Halloween
by Dianne Conrad
For a couple of bucks and little more
than an hour of your time you can get 5
quarts of caramel corn.
For this easily made American Pop
Corn Company recipe you'll need:
• 6 quarts of popped corn: A quarter
cup of kernels yields about 1 1/4 quarts
of popped corn.
• 1 cup (2 sticks) butter: You can use
margarine but taste isn't the same.
• 2 cups firmly packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup light or dark corn syrup
• 1 teaspoon each: salt, vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Put popped corn in a very large bowl
or pot and have ready baking pans about
15 by 10 inches in size. You can buy
throw-away aluminum pans but keep them
after the corn is made! Wash and store
them where they won't get crushed.
Melt butter in a pan and while it is
melting remove pop com kernels that
didn't pop. Stir in sugar, syrup and salt
Bring to a boil (takes about 10 minutes
over medium heat) stirring constantly.
Boil 5 minutes without stirring.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla
then baking soda (mix will foam when
you add soda). Pour a fifth over corn and
stir with a wooden spoon to cover. Repeat
until all is used to coat all of the corn.
Divide corn between baking pans and
put in preheated 250-degree F. oven for 1
hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and elevate pans
so air can circulate (a cooling rack is best
but you can use other stuff to make
temporary "legs" for the pans). Cool corn
completely before storing airtight.

Conrad was a food editor.

Geometry in Dozenland
Geometry is also much easier in
Dozenland, where a right triangle has 3
degrees (* °) and a whole circle has 12
( _0 ° ). Each degree is divided into 12
CD) minutes and each minute into 12 (_D)
seconds. So one degree, like one hour,
has _QD seconds (that is, 144 seconds).
Their Euclidean geometers claim that the
sum of the interior angles of any triangle
is 6 degrees (that is, 2 right angles) and
that each angle of an equilateral triangle
has 2 degrees.
Their books of
trigonometry pay special attention to
angles with degrees: 1, 1.5, 2 and 3
(Our 30°, 45°, 60°, 90° ). It so happens
that angles that are 1/3, 1/2 and 2/3 of a
right angle are very common (here and
there) and that, unfortunately for us. 100
is not divisible by 3. That is the reason
why we don't say that a right angle has
100°, but instead we say it has 90°. If we
said that a right angle has 100° , we would
have to say that one-third of a right angle
(an important angle) would have
33.333...°.
For these reasons, it is easier for
Dozenlandians students to learn geometry
and trigonometry than it is for our
students. They find the measurement of
angles similar to the motion of the sun
and the motion of the hands in their
clocks. For them, a right angle is related
to the time between sunrise and noon; an
equilateral triangle is related to the lapse of

2 hours. Also, they do not have to worry
about the difference between our notation
of angles with degrees, minutes, and
seconds, and our corresponding decimal
notation. Our angle 60° 30' 30", when
written in decimal form, becomes the
awkward 60.508333...° . In Dozenland,
there is only one kind of notation: the
duodecimal notation. They just simply
write, for instance, Li = ° (If you
want, you could read this as 8 degrees, 4
minutes and two seconds). The kind of
nuisances that our students have to deal
with do not help much in their
understanding of mathematics. Instead,
they become distracting inconveniences.

done in previous interviews.
A day later, the two men met again.
Ofshe's report best describes what
happened:
"Mr. Ingram produced a written
confession to acts of sexual abuse of his
children in response to the influence
methods I employed. The tactics I used...
resembled the interview procedures used
in Mr. Ingram's interrogations.
I subsequently confronted Mr. Ingram
with the fact that he had produced a
false confession... Mr. Ingram became
quite distraught but steadfastly maintained
that the recollections he had in response
to my suggestions were as real as his
other recollections. Mr. Ingram succeeded
in convincing me that this statement was
true...."
Ofshe noted a similar process of
suggestion at work in the recollections of
Sandra Ingram. He especially noted the
effect of Jon Bratun, Paul and Sandra's
minister at the Church of the Living
Water.
Bratun had counseled every member of
the Ingram family. He was allowed to

numerous babies being killed, seeing the
dead body of at least one adult woman,
having undergone two backyard abortions
and having to eat the flesh of her own
fetus, she is unable to provide me with
an account of the format of the group's
meetings or any of the group's nonhomicidal rituals. She reports that the
group's meetings took about 3 hours. All
that she can describe about their conduct
is that 'they chant'."
Ofshe also noted Erika's long history
of making accusations of rape, and then
quickly dropping them. She had even
made a charge of improper advances
against a church youth counselor to Jim
Rabie while he was head of the Thurston
County sex crimes department. This was
during the same time period that Rabie
was purportedly molesting her.
Ofshe's time with Paul Ingram only
served to make him more concerned. In
looking over transcripts of interviews
with Paul, Ofshe noticed that he seemed
to offer stories only after being
excessively prompted by detectives. He
decided to give Paul a test.
In an interview with Paul, Ofshe told
him that one of his daughters and one of
his sons had claimed that he had forced
them to have sex together while he
watched. No such charge had, in fact,
been made. Ingram could not recall the
event at first, as was typical for him, but
Ofshe pushed him, telling him that he
had to remember; just as detectives had

"Prior to getting involved in this case
I had never read anything of substance
about the Salem Witch trials. I spent
some time last weekend reading a book
entitled
Salem

The
accusations of witchcraft made by the
Salem women resulted in the executions
of 19 individuals and the imprisonment of
scores of others. At this juncture in your
life, you too might find this book

visit Paul in jail, and even performed an
exorcism on him!
It was quite clear to Ofshe that Bratun
served to contaminate the case. Bratun
admitted that he acted as Sandra's
spiritual advisor and managed to convince
her that she was "80% evil." He also
admitted to having provided Sandra with
full details of Paul's admissions. It came
as no surprise to Ofshe that, given the
intense spiritual and emotional pressure
she was under, Sandra soon began to
have vague recollections of satanic
ceremonies.
The sheriff's department believed that
such vague, repressed memories were the
result of mind control, but Ofshe
disagreed. After consulting several experts
he determined that there is no known
form of mind control that could produce
the amnesiac, completely repressed
memories that the Ingrams displayed. The
inconsistencies in the Ingram testimony
were not the result of mind control, as
detectives had hoped.
After rudely taking away all of the
prosecution's hopes, Ofshe had one last
