Fort Apache, The Bronx wants to be a
tough movie and in many ways, it is. By
touch I don't mean "macho," but hard
hitting, honest, touching in a very real
way. Its failures stem from producers who
got scared because of the. Third World
protest groups that tried to stop the filming in New York last spring
The producers backed of-f from detailing urban decay when minority groups •
protested that the film portrayed minorities unfairly, and gave the general
impression that inhabitants of
the South Bronx are all junkies and/or
hopeless criminals.
Instead, the producers focused on the
love story angle, which is a shame, because what could have been a great
movie has turned out to be merely a good
one.
Paul Newman.who has too often slid by
on blue eyes in bad roles, is superb as

John Murphy, an 18-year veteran of the
New York Police Force who, because of a
political miscue, ~as spent 14 of those
years in the 41st Preci net, the worst territory in the South Bronx.
In the first part of the film, we watch
Murphy deliver babies, disarm craLies
with craziness and talk a suicidal transvestite down off a building edge. It's a
perilous, winless world that Murphy has
learned to cope with.
Into this hel I hole comes Ed Asner as a
new commander, a by-the-book tightass
who refuses to accept the live-and-let-live
policies of the precinct. He's determined
to uproot and change the neighborhood
whil~searching for the killer of two cops
who were blown away under the previous
commander.
Asner's tacti,s only incite a neighborhood riot and while that's taking place an
innocent Puerto Rican kid is tossed off a
building by two cops. Murphy and his
partner witness this from another rooftop

and throughout the second half of the
film are ·caught up in a Serpico-like delimma of not knowing whether they should
rat on their fellow officers or keep quiet
The problems with this movie involve
the schizoid storyline. On the one hand,
the war in the Bronx is sketched out, but
not as clearly defined as it could be. The
major focus is shifted to a love affair
between Murphy and a young Puerto
Rican nurse who turns out to have a serious drug problem that the veteran cop
tries to help her with. The last scene between them is a real gut-wrencher, probably the best in the whole movie.
This film is basically an' actors'vehicle
and succeeds on the performance of
Newman, Asner as the Nixonian commander, Ken Wahl as Newman's cocky young
partner, and Rachel Ticotin as the troubled love interest.
As for all the controversy surrounding
the movie, I think it is unfair to call this
film an ethnic slur. Graphic in its vio-

~

lence, sad in the realities portrayed, I
think this is a very human picture, whatever faults it has. There are no heroes or
villains among the cops and civilians, no
winners, only survivors running on gut
instinct to guide them home. That's real.
That sense is what makes Fort Apache,
The Bronx' a moving and satisfying
experience.

Legislature to Stiffen
Residency Requirements?
by Kenn Goldmann and Bill Montague
Students at the Evergreen State College
may soon find their residency status in
doubt. The State legislature is considering
changes in the state's residency reqvirements that could cost some Evergreen
students an additional $1,400 a year in
tuition.
A proposed measure, Senate Bill 3348,
would remove the requirement that students live in Washington for at least one
year in order to gain resident status. Instead, such factors as financial independence, employment in state government
or having parents who live in Washington
State would be the new criteria. Students
who meet the new requirements would be

"It's more than a little intimidating to
have to confront this sort of garbage,"
Jom!s said.
Thorun Roble of Renton told the committee there have been tvvo cross-burnings
1ll'Renton and two in Kent. "It's always
too easy lo ignore racism," she said.
"The terrorism racism generates 1sas
intense as if ,t were a homb threat," said
Marion Kinney of Seattle. "We should
qrengthen the bill so then' are more
penalties."
If the bill becomes law, violators would
also be liable for property damage.
American Civil Liberties Union lawyer
Troy Locati said he favored the bill but
asked that "the language be specific"
"Statutes that deal with speech can be
turned around and be used against the
people they were designed to protect," he
said. "There are symbols other than
swastikas that create fear'' but aren't necessarily bad, he said. He cited black armbands as an example.

racism was increasing across the country.

Fleming said. "In California someone from

granted residency status immediately 111stead of waiting the customary 12 months.
The bill's sponsors, Senators Donn
Charnley, Barney Goltz and George Scott,
introduced SB 3348 in hopes that it would
clear up the complicated system for determining residency status and make that
system easier to apply "The present
system is cumbersome and difficult to
administer," a senate staff member stated.
"Sometimes·colleges have to consult the
State Attorney General's office before
making a residency decision ...
Critics charge that though the bill untangles the vague language of previous
regulations, it also creates a convenient
loophole. They claim that if the bill

ollege students could give themselves a
,nancial break by simply not listing therr

One of the most startling elements was
the mi Ii tancy of speaker after speaker
from a political party that has been docile
for such a long time. "The voters have
spoken-those dirty bastards," quipped
Congressman Dicks. The tone for the
afternoon now set, Dicks went on, "It's

Congressman Bonker followed Norm

summary of current problems. Tsongas
said thi, plea isn't as simple as,just fighting for his political life or for the continuation of the Democratic Party.
Tsongas said the American people need

Commenting on the shift to the right by

Paul Tsongas noted an incident that
happened recently in Washington, D.C.
"A committee recently rated the 25 most

Tsongas also made it clear that it wasn't

be represented by Local 443 as a col lec• tive bargaining unit. With 135 union
membership cards turned in (9 more than
the required 50% + 1 "magic number"),
Union rep Elsie Schrader will be petitioning the Higher Education Personnel Board
(HEPF) for approval of the bargaining
unit. The HEPB's approval is expected,
Schrader said.
Schrader talked about the staff's unionization efforts at a lunchtime meeting with
Evergreen workers last Tuesday She outlined the steps the union will be taking
between now and the April meeting with
the HEPB and answered audience questions about unionization.
Shortly, said Schrader, a meeting will
take place between management and the
union to determine which positions on
the personnel roster will be included in
the bargaining unit. Last fall Vice President of Business Richard Schwartz estimated that 249 positions (hence the
50% + 1 + 126 formula) would be
represented by collective bargaining.
However, Schrader said, that number may
decrease to s9mething like 240 as management reconsiders the status of certain
supervisory positions.
An audience member asked Schrader
what she thought about having both
supervisors and workers belonging to the
same bargaining unit. Schrader said she
supported the idea because, unlike private
industry, state employees, from Dan Evans

In later discussion, State party leader,
Bill Ames, urged Washington Democrats

"Party organization and party work is

on down, are fighting tor the same increased benefits and improvements of
working conditions.
Schrader also noted that a union worker
filing a grievance against his or her union
supervisor would not create a conflict. On
the contrary, the union rep said, if both
parties belong to the unjon they would
have "orderly means whereby to solve the
problem."
The benefits of a union shop were mentioned briefly by Schrader. (A union shop
is one in which all workers are required to
belong to the union.) "The main advantage is that everyone pays their fair
share," she said. Moreover, a non-union,
or open shop, would allow a new employee to enjoy benefits procured for he
or she by the union without having to pay
anything for them.
"What can we do between now and
Aprill" asked an audience member.
Schrader said that she wanted a committee of three or four employees to attend
the union/management meeting in which
the personnel list would be reviewed. She
suggested that nominations for the committee be solicited through the mail. Election of the group could also be conducted
in this manner, Schrader noted. The audience agreed to these proposals.
Schrader also put in a pitch for two upcoming films at Evergreen concerning
union organizing: The Wilmar 8 (showing
today) and Harlan County, USA (March 3).
"These films will help you with your recruiting," she said. "They set a climate.
They help people to know what it is all
about."

Brophy continues to maintain that
paying a fee is not illegal, "You pay a
doctor money to save your life, you pay a
minister to save your soul. A woman
should be paid for risking her life and her
health." she s;iid.
Despite her stand, ?he is changing the
definition of the fee and the payment
schedule. The agency now pays only the
pregnancy confinement, medical and
transportation cost, as is proscribed by
law.
"Nobody has set what the confinement
and medical costs are, so I can pay whatever I want," she said. Instead of paying
the $10,CXX)fee after the child is born, the
agency pays $ 1,CXX)a month, not to exceed 10 months. "Both the surrogates and
the couples like this. better," she said.
"The surrogates can always use the money
and it's easier to come up with $1,CXX)up
iront than it is to get.$.1G,CXX)."
Brophy described the ~omen who are
applying to be surrogate mothers. "Most
are around 27 years old," she said,
"though we have had one as young as 21
and one who was 38." Brophy said she
has very few black surrogates or couples
seeking to hire black surrogates. According to Brophy, most are Caucasian, though
she has had some orientals.
"A lot of them (surrogates) are getting
into it because they can use the extra
money," she continued, "and because
they think it's a good thing to do."
Brophy said she had no objection to
someone doing it just for the money.
According to Brophy, the Surrogate
Family Services charges $4,000 for arranging the pregnancy and adoption. $2,CXX)
goes to the lawyer and $2,CXX)goes to the
corporation. This is in addition to the
medical and confinement fee that the
surrogates receive.
Brophy knew of no other successful
surrogate motherhood clinics, although
she did mention Noel Keane, an attorney
in Dearborn, Michigan, who has been
handling such cas~s for about five years.
Keane is in the process of testing Michigan State laws prohibiting surrogate
motherhood arrangements "We filed suit
against the Attorney General and the
County Prosecutor," he said, "on the part
of a couple who wanted to hire a woman
to carry a babv for them."

The court decided that the surrogate
motherhood arrangement violated Michigan State law. Keane is presently appealing that decision. He has also proposed
legislation to the Michigan House of
Representatives and has received the
support of State Representative Richard
Fitzpatrick.
The Michigan lawver is publishing a
buok on surrogate mothering and is planning a nationwide tour to speak on the
subject. "I think it will become a part of
legal practice," said Keane. "Although I
think the state will come in, as they
should, and regulate it." Keane feels that
the states should regulate the practice of
surrogate motherhooci, but not prohibit it.
Like the Surrogate Mother Services in
Washington, Keane first started out
running ads in college papers. "My first
ad was rejected by the two major papers.
so I ran them in the college papers. We
still run them In the Wayne State, University of "Michigan and Eastern Michigan
papers," Keane said. He said that he
received no objections from the campus

MM BacksOff From Suit
With State Library
by Philip Watness

Keane prefers surrogates who aie divorced women with children of their own.
Most of his surrogates are between the
ages of 20 and 35. Many are in the high
twenties, which Keane considers to be a
good age.
Most of his surrogates and adoptive
couples are white. "I have only one black
couple and one Puerto Rican client," he
said, "I get a lot of calls from black
women wanting to do it for the fee but I
don't have that many black couples."
He argues that it's not a racist practice.
He said that while there are many black
children up for adoption, there are few
white children available. "If there were
more white babies available," he said,
"this whole situation would never have
come about."

I

He said it's more a question of money.
Even with the legal hassles, if the desire
for a child is strong enough and the wallet
is thick enough, an adoption can he
arranged. "Where there's a will, there's a
way .. as long as you can afford it,'' said
Keane. According to Keane, the cost of a
surrogate mother adoption runs anywhere
from 'l>lS,000 to $17,CXX)

Increased funding for The Evergreen
State College should be included in the
State's budget because TESC has successfully met the legislature's order to increase enrollment, The Council on Postsecondary Education (CPE) reported to the
House Higher' Education Committee last
Thursday.
Cail Norris, who heads the CPE; said
that TESC could not afford to increase
enrollment if Governor Spellman's budget
is adopted. The budget would pay· for 420
fewer students than the 3,050 enrollment
figure ordered by the legislature
The second annual CPE report
stated that TESC was caught in a
Catch-22: "In effect, on one hand, the
College is being told to grow to a specified level, while, on the other hand, funding restrictions via the enrollment contract (the funding allowed by the state)
do not sustain s □ ch growth."
Evergreen has developed a marketing
and public relations plan to attract more
students to the campus. The enrollment at
TESCduring th" fall quarter was the highest in Evergreen's history. Also, the
number of transfer students from western
Washington community c9lleges appears
to be rising, though that of new students
coming airectly out of high school has
not increased significantly.
The college has targeted high schools
and community colleges as sources from·
which they hope to increase enrollment.
It has also prepared an admission ,1ews-

letter to inform counselors about the
college and its admission procedures. The
earlier publication of the catalogue is also
'meant to improve chances of students
transferring to Evergreen.
,
The CPE report cites improvements
TESC has made to attract part-time students. About half of the college's programs are open to students on a part-time
basis. Approximately one quarter of TESC's
students enroll for less than 10 quarter
credit hours. Both these facts have
allowed the school to reach its goal- to
enroll 10% of Full Time Equivalents
attributed to part-time enrollment.
"Clearly, Evergreen is committed to
serving the working adult," stated the CPE
report. Faculty are expected to teach at
least one half-time evening program during each three-year contract period.
During the 1979-1980 academic year, four
half-time academic programs designed for
adult audiences were scheduled in the
evenings.
TESC has tried to meet other recommendati.ons made by the CPE in February,
1979. It has expanded. its role in state
personnel training, negotiated with the
University of Puget Sound to'jointly offer
a teacher certification program, expanded
the attention placed on career preparation
and changed its admissions procedures
and plans to develop outreach programs
throughout southwest Washington.
Evergreen has also been successful in
keeping costs low. The cost per student
has increased by only 2.4% during the
past year.

Michael Farris Direc-tor of Moral Majority-

by Bill Livingston
The Moral Majority, Monday, abandoned its lawsuit that required the Washington State Library to disclose the names
of public school districts which booked
the controversial sex education film
"Achieving Sexual Maturity."
'
Tom Bjorgen, assistant attorney general
for the State Library told the CPJ that the
director of the tv\oral Majority, Michael
Farris, knew that the bookings were filed

by individual borrower and not by school
districts when he brought suit against the
library.
Scott Montangne, assistant state director of the Moral Majority, said the suit
was dropped when Bjorgen told Farris that
all but the last six months of booking
records were destroyed
The Seattle Post:lntelligencer reported
that Bjorgen was disappointed that he
didn't get a chance to argue the l1brarv's
case against invasion of privacy and violation of the first amendment guarantees of
free speech.
In the initial informal request Farris
phoned the library and asked ior a 11stot
the school districts and employees that
had booked the film, Bjorgen said State
Librarian Roderick Swartz refused to gIw
out the narnes of individual borrowers on
the grounds that the action would be an
invasion of privacy.
In announcing his decision, Swa.rtz said
that "tear of public disclosure, particularly
among those who read or view controversial materials, would result in deterring
citizens from seeking information through
their libraries."
At a press conference on Feb. 11, Farris
announced the organization's formal
request for a list only of the school
districts involved, not the names of individual borrowers. The affidavit filed on
the same day asked the State Library to
supply a list of the cities where the borrowers reside and the names and addresses
of the public schools in those cities. The
library was also asked to reveal which
schools used the film, the dates shown,
attendance records, and the grade levels
of the students involved.

Reagan Ignores Solar Energy
by Bill Montague
The sun set a little lower on any hope
ior a solution to· America's energy problems when the Reagan administration
released its proposed 1982 Federal budget.
Under the Reagan budget, funding for
solar energy development will be slashed
by almost 60%. The Solar Development
Bank. established by President Carter to
provide homeowners with low interest
loans for solar heating installation, will
be axed completely.
Conservation is not a high Reagan priorit,· either Programs aimed at finding ways
to use e,isting energy supplies more

Mr. Reagan is quite willing to sacrifice

The Stdk of Washington is facing a
crisis. Not merely in terms of what is
happening in Olympia. Not merely in the
budget cuts or the tax increase that now
seem, inevitable. The crisis involves a
lack of leadership in both political parties
and how it affects the state.
Let's start with the Democrats as their
crisis seems most clear. Tied to the policies of the past, they "got clobbered" in
November, according to Senator Paul
Tsongas of Massachusetts, speaking to thP
Democrats this last weekend. The Democrats are rudderless and drifting, with a
need to rebuild, reorganize and stop

Name Calling Fosters Separatism
by Phillip Everling
Why is there so much quasi-political
name calling here at Evergreen/ Inflammatory epithets are often bandied about
111an irresponsible manner, with seemingly little thought given to the seriousness
of these accusations. Terms I ike racist,
sexist, fascist, classist, and elitist are some
very heavy labels which should be handled with care by minority and special

"If you are not a black, homosexual,
working-class woman, you are an oppressor, pig!" This is an obviously satirical
slogan meant to convey the revolutionary
social cl-imate that was so prevalent

However, many self rightous Greeners .

by Kathie McCarthie
Sexuality has been one 0f the more
compelling initiators of discussion and
controversy on campus as well as in communities and government nationwide.
Federal laws against sexual discrimination
and sexual harassment have been passed.
Community organizations are developing
to meet changing needs of women and
men. Much work is being done from a
number of different.perspectives. One
aspect of this work is education and sharing of information: simplifying generalizations, dissecting stereotypic images and
dismembering rhetoric.
One of the more common words thrown
at both men and women has been "sexist."
Here and most everywhere, there is a sad
lack of compassion for the painful results
of sexism on women and on men·. Sexism
is a complex issue. By explaining my
understanding of its foundations, I hope
to simplify the issue so people can at
least clarify their points of conflict and
discuss the issue constructively.
l'm working with three basic premises
when I examine relationships between
women and men. These premises are generalizations and are not meant to be
accurate depictions of every individual in
the group involved. They are meant instead to provide a broad-based understanding of a tendency within that group;
to provide a critical angle from which to
examine behavior and better understand
it. You may not think these premises hold
true for you or the world you live inthey may not. But ask people who live in
"another world" than you (racially, economically, sexually, politically) what they
think. You may find that these premises
are more apparent to those most directly
afflicted by th£'m.
1. Women have feared the physical
strength and societally sanctioned power
of men. Men have allowed that strength
to serve as a way to control women.
2. Men have been denied access to
their full range of emotions-particularly
those of a softer, non-controlling nature
{i.e. sadness and vulnerability) Women
have been trained out of feeling emotions
of a harder, more aggressive, nature
(i.e. anger and arrogance).
3. Wealth has been more accessible to
white men than to women. Wealth has
tended to mean power.
I am tbankful for the many exceptions
to these premise$ who reassure me of the~inherent human ability to change and
develop. Also, these generalization~ __
¥1!.
_
based-oll"my experiencesTn being, and
dealing predominantly with, white, heterosexual, Christian women and men. I am
interested to hear about the cultural differences and cross-cultural similarities.
These three premises when bound
together, unfortunately form the root
system for some of the ugliest aspects of

American society.
Many working women are still paid
only 59,'. for every $1.00 paid to their male
co-workers who have equal skill and training. Women are raped. Third World
women are sterilized. Girls grow up learning to submit to the wills of othersfathers, bosses, husbands, rapists-and
never know their own inherent power and
vitality. Boys grow up learning to contrql
others-mothers, employees, wives and
rape victims-and
never know the beauty
of surrender and peace.
Men are denied the right to cry and
know they need love.
Women are denied the right to fight
back and know they'll win.
White men, who's emotions have been
stultified, still hold most of the economic
power and therefore control the decisionmaking policies of business and government that affect LIS al I

Sexuality

My focus is on the emotional implications of these aspects of our society.
'
Socialization is circular and very effective.
We learn to perceive ourselves in particular ways; we behave consistent with those
perceptions and thus perpetuate a society
that maintains those values.
Seldom is sexuality allowed to be that
simple sense of wonder and aliveness that
moves us towards those who We would be
moved towards. It instead becomes entangled with what's right, who's right and
when is it right. Sexuality is a very differ.ent experience for women and men. The
most obvious difference is anatomicalpartiqJlarly in heterosexuality. The
woman receives the man; allowing the
entrance of something new into the very
core of her body.- The man is adding himself to the woman, placing himself somewhere new. Perception is definitely a
factor in this phenomena. I can imagine
a man fearing being enveloped by a
woman. However there is relatively little
in our societal training that develops that
perception. There is a great deal that
fosters women's sense of being entered,
invaded, affected and even "bettered"
because of her interaction with a man. I
know the feeling well, and whether it be
a societal perception or a truth, it is
potent and must be considered when
understanding women's feelings about
relationships __
and about sexuality.
From my biased pos·ition, sexuality for
men holds rather different emotional
i
implic;ations-c--lnherent-in-their analomy 1s
power; the power t.o penetrate and impregnate. Their sperm can reach a fertile
egg and the woman may carry that child
within her for nine months and nurture it
for another 20 years. The man could
hitchhike to Arkansas and never think
about that particular action again. She'll
never forget it. Men have the anatomicar

ability to affect and alter another human's
life. No such power is inherent to
women's sexuality.
Compounding this is the common experience of most men being physically
stronger than most women. The reasons
for this are complex, but the generalized
fact remains. And ttiat simply scares me.
Although I may k11owthat men with
whom I willingly interact would never
deliberately hurt me, I am still cautious of
men I don't know.
Even when I want to, I'm not allowed·
to forget the fact that women are hurt by
men.' I ride my bike and am yelled,
honked, and gestured at. I walk downtown and am approached, talked to and
stared at. I hear friends who have been
raped, cry, and I begin to fear all men in
the night. I read the newspapers and
know it's not only happening to me. I
maintain contact with individual men and
am reminded that this behavior is not
necessarily a function of maleness. It is
instead a function of a distorted and disturbed society that dehumanizes both
men and women.

Sexual Ha_rassment

Sexist behavior is manifested in a full
and varied spectrum covering the range
from not-funny jokes and supposedly
friendly comments, to justifications of
inequal pay based on women's "inherent
inferiority" It ranges from men dying of
heart attacks because of undue pressurP
to succeed, to lesbians and gay men
losing Jobs and homes, to women being
afraid to go out at night, to terrorization,
rape and murder.

Dear Pearl Deans,
As a White, Jewish, Female American
student trying to reach out to the student
body to see what kind of music they want
at this school, I did not wish to offend
anyone.
I, along with a male White American
student and the Gig Commission made up
this questionaire on 1y to help the student
body as a whole and not attack any individual.
The CPJ does not owe you an apology
by publishing the "Gig Commission"
article, for they were only doing their job
I ask you Pearl, what would we gain by
attacking the Third World Community7

To the CPJ staff at large:
There always seems to be a great need
for 'you to ask.students to submit their art
to fill in the newspaper's empty spaces. I
was asked if' I had any photographs for
the back page of this last week's issue.
Fine. No problem, or so_I thought. My
complaint is with the consequent quality
of the chosen photo. I mistakenly
'
assumed that at least one of the "staff"
would know something about the graphic
process a photograph goes through so
that the image seemingly represents the
original. Obviously not. Maybe -no one
cares, but since when does visual art rate
lower than the wr[tten word? I get the
feeling my work was just a filler and not
treated otherwise.

To the Editor:
Incorrect and inadequate reporting
occurred last week in the article "Students
Discuss Campus Improvements" The CPJ
writer who was responsible for the article
obtained his information from a person
late to the meeting. His late arrival meant
that the information, regarding the purpose of the meeting, who was present and
what interests they represented and the
background information presented by

may wonder when their perceived
"friendliness and warmth" becomes sexual
harassment. Watch the people you're •
friendly to for clues-they'll
pull back,
look uncomfortable, lose their train of
thought.
Many women still feel powerless and
frustrated in a system that encourages
them to remain that way. For these
women sexual attention from a man may
bring a number of reactions-pleasure,
disgust, fear or confusion. It may be
difficult for her to state her position
clearly. Sex and unequal power are an
ugly mix.
Whether it's harassment or not will only
become clear when one of the two complains. I encourage more people to complain if they're feeling the cringe in the
pit of their stomach. I hope more people
realize they deserve to be complained
about and call upon their human ability
to develop and change, to do so.
Sexism runs deep. Fear: consistant
socialization against assertiveness may
inhibit women from speaking out against
harassment. Control: consistent socialization against vulnerability may inhibit men
from speaking out if they're being
harassed. Desire for control may compel
other men to harass.
Sexual harassment becomes linked up
with incest and rape as a subject not to
be discussed publicly Thi! needs to
change bPcausP talking about it forces
people to deal with it.
Speaking with faculty and deans I have
found a variety of responses to this suhject: from defensive, arrogant denials. to
basic comprehension but reluctance to
takP action, to profound comprehension
and insight into the problem.
Though it doesn't seem to be a glaring
problem on campus, I encourage people
to continue examining their behavior and
rPsponses to remedy the less glaring, but
- equally detrimental aspects of their
actions. Use the information presenter'
here to gain another perspective on situations you thought you understood. Perhaps a more cqmpassionate and devel- ••

With time, perhaps women and men

TESC:Energy
Inefficient
by Emily Brucker and Jim Peterson

With the increasing cost of energy,
Evergreen faces a· dilemma in which expensive energy-saving devices cost more
money than the school's budget provides.
In an interview with Jon Collier, the
school architect; Arnold Doerksen, Assistant Director of Facilities; Tex Cornish,
Chief Engineer of Maintenance and Mike
Bigelow, who administers Evergreen's .
budget, it was agreed that the school Is
designed inefficiently and changes will
have to be made to save more energy.
In 1980, the school spent $278,0XI on
natural gas for the steam plant to heat the
dorms and buildings. The cost for electric-

heating in the mods was $288,0Xl. These
figures translate to about $200 per
student.
The school is allotted a certain amount
of electricity each year. If more is used,
the school has to pay a higher rate as
determined by Puget Power. If the school
saves energy, said Bigelow, the extra
money will go toward energy-saving
devices.
The general engineering of the school's
buildings is inefficient, stated Cornish. He
said that all heating and cooling systems
were designed to run continuously and
were also designed without the capacity
to selectively heat or cool a certain room.
To change the temperature in one room,
the whole building has to be heated or
cooled.
The only insulation in the buildings is
in the roofs. The walls are concrete which
is not a good insulator but is a good
thermal mass: while it takes a lot of
energy to heat or cool such a mass, it will
stay that way for a long time.
Most of the heat is lost through the
windows which are all single pane.
Cornish mentioned, however, that if
uouble-glazed windows were installed, an
approximate savings of 50% or more
would be realized. A feasibility study
done on the Communications Building
verified these figures, Cornish added ...
But the list of problems is far from
complete. The Labs are expensive to heat
because they take fresh air from the outside heat it and then fans blow the warm

on Current Issues

It'• worth the ride Jcrose town!

by Roger Str,itmatter
No European observer since Alexis De
Toqueville has probed the polity and
psyche of American society with the kind
of disturbing clarity and vigor which E.P.
Thompson brings to bear in his "Letter to
America," which appeared three weeJ<s
ago in the January 24 issue of The Nation.

Professor Tom Rainey
America, Thompson says, is riding a
hellbound train headed straight for collision with the Soviet Union. The result7
Total annihilation for Western civilization,
Thompson ,a ys.
Three decades of repressed hostility,
mutual fear, arid mi.litary mystification
backed by the constant threat of nuclear
war as the final arbiter in a showdown,
Thompson says, have doubled back into
our culture and ideology like an eddy
behind a dam strained to the bursting

point. Imagination has been numbed,
values eroded, and language befogged in
a shroud of military rhetoric. A failing
vision of America's future is buttressed by
doublethink: nuclear deterrence gives way
to "pre-emptive" deterrence, and the
notion that nuclear war can be fought to
adwmtage, that it can be "won," gains
credence in the halls of government. This,
Thompson says, is the "deep structure" of
the cold war.
"There is even," he writes, "a tremor of
excitement in our culture as though, subconsciously, humankind has lived with the
notion for so long that expectations without action have become boring."
Thompson writes from the perspective
of a European, a man situated on the
probable front lines of a U.S.-Soviet showdown. Amencans. he says, have lost
touch with European realities, and that
fact is "bringing both countnes into immense danger." Sanitized versions of
. European reaction to US decisions, portrayed through the popular media in this
country, belie European fears about U.S.
bellicosity.
Recent U.S. decisions to deploy
Pershing Intermediate range missiles and
cruise missiles on 1:uropean territory, to
"modernize" existing nuclear forces in the
European theatre are viewed, he says,
with increasing alarm by a significant and
growing minority in even the most sweethearted NA TO countries, while citizens
of countries like Norway, Holland, Belgium
and Denmark have steadfastly resisted
U.S. pressure to become nuclear dominoes. Norway's prime minister, in his 1981
New Year's message, called for a nuclear
free weapons zone embracing five
northern European countries.
Thompson's view of the pressures push,ng the superpowers towards collision can
hardly be characterized as reassuring. But
his aim is not simply to prognosticate
disaster. Just when one suspects his historical determini,m is complete-the
cold
shock of his faith in the efficacy of informed action to avert the impending
catastrophe hits you lull in the face.
He, himself, has emerged as a leader of
an embryonic but fast-growing British

pea'ce movement, linked to sister movements on the Continent, agitating for survival. "We must," he says very simply,
"throw whatever resources still exist in
human culture across the path of this
degenerative logic."
'
Evergreen /a.culty Tom Rainey, a professor of .History and Russian studies spent
last spring travelling anq visiting in
England In January he read Thompson's
article, and has accepted the challenge to
throw his resources across the path of
destruction.

CPI· On<' oi th1· things that Thompson
doe, in h" ,1rti, IP 1, to analyze thP use oi
military jargon-words
like "theater,"
"limited," and "menu"-used
in rPlation
to nuclear war. From your experience a,
a person who has worked with words and
rhetoric, what role has such jargon played
in sustaining the myopic American view
of the world and our naivete about the
possibilities of nuclear war 7
Rainey: The use of seemingly neutral or
technical terms to describe what could
result in the destruction of SOto 150 mil 0
lion lives has corrupted our language. It
reflects a kind of general cultural malaise
that we would even accept such a thing.
The larger point is that both societies
have becorn~ militarized, and support
power elements within themselves which
are basically destructive of democracy,
basically authoritarian, basically suspicious of any kind of civilian control or
veto power over military decisions. They
have shrouded their decisions, shrouded
their insanity, iri a smokescreen of Ianguage-technical
language, which has
behind it ai;i almost cynical disregard for
the kind of physical destruction which a
nuclear war would result in.
The militarization of our society, and
the fact that we talk about war in abstract
and technical terms, has led to a ·general
kind of cultural and intellectual malaise
over the issue-that is ·one of Thompson's
most telling and important points. So
when we talk, for instance, about "limited" nuclear war, and we are told that,
well, a "limited" nuclear war would mean
this, and a "theatre" war that, and a total
war, this: we're already talking in
"options" of nu~lear war

in a way we're reclaiming
our culture a, well-reclaiming
other
ar<>a,of our society and other areas of
our culture which have been in effpct
taken over and exploited by policy
'
makers, particularly foreign policy makers.
CPJ: For example?
Rainey. Well, for example, in always
talking about the Soviet Union as the
major enemy behind every issue that we
have to deal with, we've created a kind of
devil theory. The other side of that is that
anybody that opposes nuclear proliferation or the policies of "defense" against
the Soviet Union is seen not as someone
who's just opposing an insane policy, but
as someone who is essentially antiAmerican and pro-Soviet. If you are not
for nuclear proliferation, then you're unAmerican. So opposing the proliferation,
and opposing the kind of policies which
are leading towards the inevitability of
nuclear exchange between the U.S. and
the Soviet Union, it seems to me, is a way
of joining all sorts of other issues: I am
not unpatriotic necessarily because I do
not want people over whom I have no
control making policies that will lead to
my destruction, and the destruction of
Western Civilization. To me it's a way of
reclaiming an area of debate that has all
sorts of ramifications, not just with
respect to stopping this insane movement
towards nuclear warfare.
CPJ:You mentioned American naivete
abou,t war.
Rainey: I think every American, if they
thought about it for a while, would understand why the Soviet Union· seems to be
almost pathologically .c_oncernedwith
security. The Soviet Union has experi- ,

enced war. Americans have not, we
simply have not experienced war.
Some Americans went-away to fight in
the First World War, and some Americans
went away to fight in the Second World
War, and I suppose in some ways they
experienced war, but in coming back and
trying to explain to the rest of us what
war was like, it was extremely difficult.
In some ways we've romanticized and
glorified war and the experience of the
Second World War as a result of that.
No part of this country has experienced
war since 1865, and then only the South
experienced it. Americans look rather
blithely at the whole notion of war.
By contrast, the Soviet Union has had
exprience. Soviet people have experi'
enced, in the 20th century, the destruction, during World War 11,of 21 million
people, and the devestation of vast portions of their industrial and agricultural
base. Other Europeans have experienced
the same thing and they are somewhat
more reluctant to engage in bellicose

activities, because they understand what
that means.
The Japanese have also experienced the
same thing. The survivors of Hiroshima
and Nagasaki have some sense of what
nuclear destruction can mean. But we
have no experience of war, and that
makes us exceedingly naive.
It seems to me that it makes us willing
to engage in warfare much more readily
than would be the case if we'd had that
kind of experience. It leads to the kind of
mentality that can talk about nuking the
Ayatolla without any sense of the destruction of even a limited, conventional
modern war, much less a nuclear war, and
that is, it seems to me, why we can talk
so foolishly about war, why we've reached.
the point that we can be fooled by the
kind of nonsense that we get from the
Pentagon and the policymakers over questions of a "limited" war. It won't be so
destructive, it'll just lead to the death of
50 million people and that won't affect us
at all. It'll affect somebody else.
CPJ.Another aspect of that "limited"
nuclear war jargon which Thompson
points out, is that whether or not the war
is "limited" depends a bit on your point
of view. If you're in England, and you're
involved in a so-called "limited" nuclear
war it's not really very limited. In Schenectady, New York, it's quite limited.

That', a rPal telling point ;ibout the uw of
pprspe( t1VPin using those kinds ot word~.
Rainey Well that's the importan,<'.
after all, of the article: what Thompson is
,aving is, "listen Americans: try to understand what this would mean. Try to understand what !his would mean to us Europeans We have to protest, because you
are engaging in a p9licy which could
destroy us as a civilization." Now, what
he's also saying is that it will also destroy
you-because there can't be a "limited"
nuclear war. The Soviet Union will not
engage in a limited nuclear war because a
limited nuclear war will include the Soviet
Union-it
won't be just fought in Poland
or someplace else-it will have to include
the Soviet Union.
CPJ: Isn't that especial.ly true now with
the deployment of intermediate range
Pershing missiles in Western Europe.
Rainey: I don't think there's any question about that. Add to that the deployment of cruise missiles, and I think we're
in real trouble.
Another point that he makes along that
line is, he's saying, "What is the worst
thing that could happen?" Given the
scenario, what is the worst thing that
could happen, short of a nuclear war? It's
part of that "better dead than red" mentality. He puts a new twist on it by pointing out t~at, at leas( if you're alive under
foreign dominatiori and occupation,
there's a possibility of existing, a possibility of reclaiming your civilization, reclaiming your humanity, but there are
none of these possibilities in a nuclear
war.
CPJ:Thomas Merton, a Trappist monk
who has served as inspiration to many
Christian peace activists, commented that
the equation "better dead than red" be-

re,pect to this issue. It convinced 1ne of
the probability of nuclear war
I think he is absolutely correct that
nuclear warfare is probable ii the sane
and reasonable people of this sociPty
don't stand up and ,ay, "hey, no, there is
some shit we will not eat, there is some
nonsense we will not take, there is some
n·ationalistic rhetoric we will not buy.''
Given our present administration, which is
only
whit more bellicose than the last
administration, I certainly don't think •
there's any other option at this point.
That doesn't mean JJecessarily flooding
the streets with demonstrations-there
are
all sorts of ways of protesting.
One of the lovely things about Thompson is that he doesn't deign to tell you
how you must do this-but
I think it's
time for people to stand up and say, "No,
we will not participate in this death culture, we will not participate in this race
towards the destruction of western civilization. And if people don't do that, if
they are not convinced of the probability
of nuclear war, and its likely cultural,
economic, and social consequences,
then .. I suppose I'll do anything I can up
to that point.
After that point, when nuclear war has
occurred, and if any of us survive it and
return to a state of feudalism in which the •
social contract is off, I will gather me a
group of marauders that will establish
whatever means are nece.ssary to survive.

CPr Did you see Daniel Berrigan on the
Today show this week/
Rainey: What did he sayl
CPJ: In December of this year, Dan and·
his brother, Phil Berrigan, and about six
other people, beat several Mark-12A
General Electric nuclear warheads into the
temporary equivalent of plowshares with
a couple of hammers and then poured
their own blood on the warhead blueprints. Their trial is pending, and they
face felony charges totalling well over life
imprisonment from that action.
Dan was on the Today ~ow explaining
their reasons for the action -he said, at
least, when the bombs start to fall, the
Pentagon will have two less to aim at
Russian children-and
pleading for a
hiatus in the momentum of the arms race.
Is this an.-issue you woulcl consider going
to jail for?
Rainey: I don't want to say exactly at
this point, what I would do, because I
haven't explored the options myself, but
all I can say is that I've gone to jail for
lesser issues. As I said, Thompson has
convinced me that it's a matter of survival. I'm not one that, particularly in the
caution and tenderness of middle years, is
easily aroused to action-but
I'm certainly
very much affected by what he has to say

An exquisite example of craft is found
in Harriet McNamara's cloissoned
"Masque #1." She has chosen a difficult
medium and has executed her work faultlessly. The subtle gradations of tone she
has achieved are phenomenal.
This leads to the idea of craftsmanship
Craftsmanship is the ability to alter any
material to a predetermined set ot' specifications, exactly. Almost all of the work
in the exhibit is well crafted including Jon
Williams' trite little "Star Wars" fantasies.
Art should communicate an idea or
experience, but it must do so in a new
and vital way. George Kimball is communicating, a, he states, dissolution and transformation, but he does this with cliched
visual images. His work is unstimulating
and visually unappealing
Liz Howell's works suffer from lack of
communication. She states that she is
relating her experiences with her environment. If this is indeed what she is doing,
she is using an 'intensely personal vocabulary. Consequently her art· is an experience
of listening to someone talk to themself.
Ruth Ashley is presenting some very
interesting pieces. She is working with
new and captivating images. Her work
speaks of transformation and mutation
both of herself and the landscapes around
her. She i, using a vocabulary that incorporate, systems of measurement and
through this device she achieves a personal and yet universill speech.

chemicals have been rushed along without time to be properly absorbed by the
cells.
In .the midst of this fierce internal battle, insulin, a hormone secreted by the

pancreas, makes its planned attack by
directing glucose and fatty acids back
into the cells. As the cells are saturated
by this rapid intake of nutrients the excess
is converted to fat and imprisoned in the _
fat cells again. A lower than normal blood
sugar level remains and the great stimulation is followed by a "let down." This •
depression state becomes more and more
dependent on the buzz the caffeine supplies. And so this vicious cycle of war
continues. Eventually the organs become·
more and more exhausted. Indirectly this
constant imbalance can contribute to
artherosclerosis (hardening of the arteries
by way of increased cholesterol deposition on the walls of the arteries), hyperglycemia by way of overstimulation of the
adrenal and pancreatic hormones, unnecessary stress levels which can throw
the immune system off balance, thus
becoming more susceptible·to bacterial
infections and possible cancer growth.
Thus these and other disorders that can
result from an imbalanced environment
lead to disease.
Taken from this perspective we can see
how the transitions set the trend towards
faster destruction. But haven't ~ind/body
stimulating drugs always been a part of
the human forming habits? History takes
us to the 15th and 16th centuries of the
well known expeditions of Columbus and
the European explorers. In their search for
spices and gold their travels also led them
to the use of caffeinated drugs. Before
that time Europea[lS depended mainly on
alcohol as a major mind altering drug, but
their adventurers provided them with
caffeine in many forms that they helped
spread.
Coffee was brought back to Europe
from Arabia and Turkey; it had spread to
Near Eastern and North African regions
from Ethiopia. Tea was brought back from
China. The kola nut was found in com-·
mon use in West Africa, and was later introduced in cola drinks as a source of
caffeine. The cocoa tree was found in
Mexico, the West Indies, and much of
Central and South America. The ilex
plant, source of the caffeine drink known
as mate or Paraguayan tea, was found in
Brazil and elsewhere in the American
tropics, this tea is still drunk in the United
States as yerba mate, and in parts of
South America it rivals coffee and tea in
popularity We can probably safely
assume that mind stimulating drugs have
been attractive to human beings as long
as their stimulating qualities have been
known.
On an economic/political level we can
look further and see how this dependence

on caffeinated substances demands a
constant supply, even at the expense of
contributing to oppression of undernourished countries.
Many of the "imported" caffeinated
substances that we consider excellent
sources, are in reality creating an unnecessary market by shifting the production
nf non-food crops away from nourishing
< raps that can be used to feed these
undernourished countries. Much more 111
depth research has been carefully written
in "Food First" by Frances Moore Lappe
and Joseph Collins. This hidden chemical
has affected our lives in more ways than
one.
Tbe battle within that we examined
earlier might very likely be an extension
of the constant conflict with our external
environment. Of course this only one
factor to examine. But now that we've
looked at this contributor of imbalance
does this mean -we are enslaved to itl Of
course not. There are alternatives.
Deep breathing a very ancient and
simple method for stimulating the mind
and body bas a very health and balancing
affect within our bodies and minds. Alier
all, fatigue is caused by an oxygen deficiency 1n the cells. •Vigorous physical work
is always accompanied by an increase in
breathing and heartbeat, as well as flexing
of muscles and the movement of various
parts of the body. These factors causP a
rapid exchange of oxygen and carbon
dioxide on a cellular level. Though the
brain requires much oxygenated blood,
mental_work is rarely accompanied by
deeper breathing Thus fatigue sets in and
an urge for caffeine is u,ed to increas!'

imbalanced stimulation.
The practice of deep breathing is extremely important for mental and physical
health, for the steady exchange of CO2
and 02 encourages thorough metabolism
of energy-supplying nutrients that we
ingest as food and air. Our lungs .connect
us directly to our environment by simply
breathing. Without a constant supply of
oxygen to our cells we cannot live.
Thus we need not be dependent on an
economical, political or inefficient physiological level because our freedom comes
from selI-control.
Other alternatives for those who enjoy
thP taste of coffee may include barley or
chicory root beverages. Carob, in place of
rhocolate or cocoa, is rich in B-vitamins
and minerals without the caffeine stimulator. Carob also has a fair amount of
protein, simple sugar, and some calcium
and phosphorous, whereas chocolate and
cocoa lack these nutrients.
Knowing that we do have freedom of
chain" sure can make our lives a lot less

It is this way with you
letting dust cover your tongue,
never twisting fables
until you both tire of cadence
and passion comes by rote.

I

It was cold that winter
- living in Short Beach,
in a house on the East River
with no insulation,
so you sat bundled before the fire.
You wore that frigid town
like old Levis, you dug
deep in the pockets
of those closed people
and pulled out home.
In the Hotel Nellie Creen
you drank with office joes
and fishermen, teased women
twiced divorced and hasty
You rolled home across river.
Snow was never easy here,
the cracked roads and hills
tossed cars Ii ke breakers,
you martyred up to frostbite
as you walked ten miles from work.
There were nights that house
told you all it ever knew,
but it was not enough.
In April came a longing,
the green sun brought her.
Your bodies sang away reason.
You left that town for her
torn between obsessions,
you followed her to Vermont
and where she cut you adrift
you came here, to the rain.

Intense Play Well .Worth Seeing

photo by Nancy Butler
by Lewis Pratt
Old Henrik Ibsen said it himself nearly
a century ago: "Before I write down one
word, I have to have my character in
mind through and through. I must penetrate to the last wrinkle of his soul. I will
create no character before its time "

For those of you unfamiliar with the
works and opinions of "old Henrik," Ibsen
was commonly accepted as the granddaddy of modern drama and was the kind
of guy who would not only spit on religious zealots, but kick the holy bejeezus

out of them as W!;!II. Henrik was more
than your ordinary, run of the mill, intellectual. When it came to his highly
moral, and for the most part, painfully
behold treatments of social hypocricy
old Henrik Ibsen rolled up his shirtsleeves
and did what needed to be done: called a
spade a spade. Hedda Gabler, the protagonistress and namesake of his last
expatriate work, is one such spade.
Hedda Gabler is rT].orethan the
Charlie's Angel bitch she; at first glance,
seem,; not only is she the most complexly
motivated of Ibsen's creations, but a perfect anti-Antigone for our modern, apocalyptic age-a tour de force "coup d'grace"
whose endless tete-tetes prove a tragic
faux pas. Thus, the jungle noises.
Tonight, for as little as two dollars,
(American), you can experience the
"Gabler phenomena" for yourself. You'll
laugh, you'll cry, you'll rant, you'll rave,
but most importantly of all, you'll receive
a thrilling, chilling, four-star performance
that's guaranteed to take the wind right
out of your sails; in the words of the late
John Foster Dulles: "a sensual daydream
to treasure forever."
But make no mistake about it: Hedda

Auction Will Keep
KAOS Humming

Gabler is not a political play. Nor is it a
feminist·play, although it is often billed as
such. Indeed, it is not even a particularly
long play. It is an intense play-no more,
no less-and for this reason alone it
stands among Ibsen's finest. Do yourself
a favor, see it. Whether tonight or any of
the other nights in its two-week weekend
run, Hedda Cabler waits for you, all the
little people who make her possible, to
free her from her dramatic chains-but
one word to the wise: be prompt. She
takes the matter into her own hands at 8
p.m. sharp.
With Linda Mathews as Hedda, J.
Michael Winslow (George). John Mallahan
(Judge Brack), and David Logan (Eilert)
will most certainly have their dramatic
hands full. As Marylu Botterman (Thea
Elvsted) puts it: "Jenny Davis (Berta) and
Michelle McDonnel (Aunt Julie) said it
best when they said: 'Andre Tsai (Director), with the assistance of David Smart
(Stage Manager), has used, not only the
inspired work of Henrik Ibsen (Author),
but the technical expertise of Peter
Walsdron (Lights, Set, Tech.) and Ruth
Palmerlee (costumes) in producing a
quality work ...a real quality work."' Truly,
thE; surreal, special effects in this production of Hedda make The Saragosa
Manuscript look like a grade school
primer.
Hedda Cab/er will show Feb. 26, 27, 28,
and Mar. 5, 6, 7, with reduced price
matinees on the 1st and 8th. Tickets will
be available in the TESC Bookstore and
the door. For further information, co,
any poster or flyer
But hurry, seating will be conducted in
accordance with the Norwegian custom of
"Den der kommer forst til molle, faar forst
malet'' (first come, first serve).
