President McCann will not present his
controversial "Proposal to Regulate Demonstrations" to the Board of Trustees this
month. Following a Tuesday, May 17,
meeting with the Coalition Against Demonstration Regulations Steering Commitltt,
an eight-person group of students,
staff, and faculty, McCann and the Steermg Committee issued the following joint
memorandum:
To: COOPER POINT JOURNAL
From: Charles McCann
Coalition against Demonstrations
Regulations Steering Committee
President McCann and the Steering
Committee had a discussion on Tuesday,
May 17. and came to an agreement about
the proposed guidelines for demonstrations issued April 15 and May 4. McCann
said that he had decided not to present
anything 10 the Board of Trustees on
May 20.
President McCann and the Steering
Committee re-cognized that the campus
could not legislate "appropriate" tactics
for expressions of dissent. McCann agreed
that generally held "understandings" would
be better than "legislation."
They agreed, however, that continuing
discussion about appropriate tactics for
expressions of dissent would ~ desirable
and fruitful.

Tuesday's meeting resulted from a Friday, May 6. meeting of the C~lition Against Demonstration
Regulations,
at
which about 75 students, faculty, and staff

met to discuss McCann's proposed demonstration guidelines, popularly known as
the "demo mP.mo." The Friday meeting
ended with a statement opposing "any attempt to elaborate specific campus guidelines for dissent," and urging "the administration to reaffirm the campus commitment to first amendment guarantees." The
Coalition also demanded a written response from McCann.
GOOD MANNERS
After the May 17 meeting, McCann attempted to clarify what he and the s1 .. ring Committee meant by the phrase "'ap-

propriate' tactics for the expression of dissent" in the briefly worded memo. "Most
of our frttdom of discussion derives from
the first amendment as well as long academic traditions," McCann said. "So, we
can invite anybody on campus to come
and speak, and anybody who wants un
go li!ten. When people are invited to campus to hear a particular thing, they !hould
be able to hear that, period, and not become a captive audience for something
else. I guns I say that out of my sense of
what good mannen are.
"·Appropriate,· we all agrttd, is impos-

sible to legislate. But 1t 1s possible to have
discussions s.o that .i more generally held
understanding of what 'appropriate' means
in a given situation."
McCann and members of the Steering
Committee explained that they intend for
future community-wide discussions 10 determine what sort of demonstrationc; and
responses lo demonstrations,
would be
considered ..appropnate" by the community. "What I'd like to see 1s a F:.roup of
people s11 down anJ has,.le 11 out
McCann said. "People who Wl)uld really
agree to get at this problem and work at
it. and do a lot of rl'aJing.
Lyle Tnbbett. a member of the Stttnn~
Committee and a past studenl moderator
of the Sounding Board, said that TuC'c;day's memorandum was a way of putting
the controversy "into a holding pattern nf
discussion.
"People will become more confident nf
their ability to judge what's appropnate
It just won't be so scary. 1s the thing."
Tribbett said. explaining that community
discussion will give everyone a better idea
of what to expect at a demonstration. and
promote a "mutual trust" that such a demonstration will not exceed the community's standards.
Tribbett commented that the whole
demo memo controversy had been handled
contrary to the manner suggested by the
COG document, which calls for extensive
discussion of an issue before guidelines of
regulations are drawn up. "What we are
doing now is going back and following
the accepted procedure - discussion first,
then guidelines," he said. "McC~nn probably stimulatN more discussion by doink
it this way, though."

Joyful
Struggles
To the Editor:
Re: Concerns arising from Evergreen and the Women's Music
Festival
People and this campus are
boiling around with issues and
reactions to this event, and it is
good for people to come into
awareness about conflicts and
feelings. It is also important to
try to reach a broader under!'itanding of the situation than
immediate reactions. In trying to
clarify the situation I looked al
1) what I see as some of the in•
tended purposes of the concert,
2) suggestini some of the cond1•
t10ns at Evergreen that contribute
to the reactions. 3) some questions
The ma1l1r cnt1nsm of the concert was towards the definite
,;!rong preference
for women
only_ It 1s true that the festival
was planned for women to be to•
gether. and without men. Why?
And why also the particular reactions tl, that?
Why would women want to
spend several hours or days with
each other? Women have a com•
mon experience m this society of
being defined, limited, and oppressed on the basis of their being
women. This is not just in their
personal lives, but in the laws of
this country, in hislory, enter•
tainment and education. etc.
The common experience of sexism creates a need and desire to
escape and change that. Ever•
gre,en is just as much a part of
this society as any other part.
Women at Evergreen still deal

with sexism. The need or desire
to change the experience of sex•
ism (through events with women)
and the need to work against sexism are here also.
A women's concert is an event
put on by women, it is a sharing
of optimism for a future in which
sexism and other forms of op•
pression may be undermined. It
is a sharing of support for each
other. It is a nice feeling for
women to be together in this
way.
Why and in what ways does
an event like this cause really
negative feelings? 1) Because
men, who are half of the population. were preferred not to come
whether or not they were concerned with erradicating sexism.
This is a very reasonable rt'Sponse
bt'cause our reality here is that
2) there is very little social/cul•
turdl night-life at Evergreen. ii is
a fundamental fact that people at
Evergreen lack events. concerts,
dances, or whateVer, that bring
people together, either politically
or apolitically.
Therefore the
women's concert,
which re•
sponded to the needs of only part
of the people, acl.ltely doesn't respond to other needs. I am par•
t1cularly comparing Evergreen to
cities, where women's events oc•
cur relatively acceptably in a sea
of integrated events. There is also
very liqle of a general support
fl,r movement.!.. women's, third
world, students, etc., on campus.
Joyful celt>brat1ons of struggling
nccur as a c<1nsequence of struggles.
Getting back to the conditions
contributing to our experience of
a women's concert, it is my un•
derstanding that the fractional•
ized condition of the student
body, the lac~ of real live com•
munity organization, communication, and support, encourages
alienation and division among us
at TESC. Though the Women's
Festival did indeed share its en•
joyments and benefits with some,
the extent of negative reactions
stems strongly from our fractionalized condition. We at TESC
tend to not support actions aim·
ing to change things for the benefit of ourselves or others. We
tend to react to immediate issues
rather than long-term
issues,
which often end up affecting our
lives to a greater extent. The
Women's Festival did not create
these conditions, though its presence did exacerbate them.
More than a few people ob·
jected to the concert's exclusion
of individual men, who would
,ave gone with interest and a
common beliel in eradicating sexism for women and men. l hope
11,at these people will understand
that lhe following response does
not devalue their support, but
thal reasoning completely bypassed my first points. The con•
cert comes out of a social experience. We, as humans in this so•
ciety. interact ptrsonally in both
a close world of friends and in a

larger world of institulions, systems, and strangers. The concert
is a response to the larger world.
There is another response that
some women have towards men
who wanted to come to the concert. Where are these people when
women, as students, ask that
women's studies materials be in·
eluded in programs? Where is
their personal concern to have an
integrated education? An inte·
grated administration 7 These are
critical questions which both men
concerned with sexism and white
people concerned ..,,ith racism
should ask themselves.
It is easy to connect women•
preferred events with the ideol•
ogy and politics of separatism.
Thi-. is an over•generalization. A
concert or conference is a limited
event which brings women of a
really wide variety of beliefs tog~t'-iu.
This may or may not focus on
issues that seem important to
you. I bypassed the possessive
reactions that focus mainly on
the "righls for men (or anyone)
to go anywhere irregardless" of
the concert's purpose.

The End

To the Editor:
It was announced several days

media that the United Stales had

however
the Soviet Union also has the
capability to kill 100 million United States citizens .

they've got more people so they'd

Soccer To Me
To the Editor:
To last week's and all other alternative educatees:
So what's the deal on these
women's soccer I-shirts, anyway?
What are they, political or something? Separatist designs upon un·
suspecting male bodies? Healthy
competition for the latest KAOS
and bookstore models?
Not even. About 20 of your
friends•who·are-women
decided,
like others before them, lo play
socct>r together. Most were coming out for the first time and all
came looking for a good time.
I'm happy to say that a group of
your friends•who·are·men
also
met with close to the same ( is
that equal?) intentions. Most af.
ternoons find individuals from
either one or both groups out
tromping the field, chasing around an oblivious
piece of
leather in search of another oft•
rumored but elusive Evergreen
instilution - leisure time. So,
with such similar interest. is there

no meeting of the minds, if not
bbdiesl
Men's and women's soccer at
Evergreen are different. Gener•
ally, our men's team could be
characterized as technically more
advanced than the women's. This
means they tend to play and enjoy a faster and strategically more
complex game. The women, on
the other hand, as a new team
play more just to learn and enjoy the game. We find a large
measurt> of gratification just being involved in this kind of group
activity. Obviously, this is only
a (mutually inclusive) contrast of
emphasis. The men play a better
game when they work well to·
gcther, and the women feel bel•
ler as a team when they play
well technically
Precisely because these differ•
ences are acknowledged, they ap·
preciably form the basis of our
n,llectivt' or individual decision
to play tl1gelher or apart on any
given day When we !>crimmage
as mixed teams. everyone, re·

The women's team 1s currently

and understandable reasons f(,r

b.•ing what they are, our prac•
t1n·s arc far from strictly and ex·
clu,1v{'ly orientt>d to winning
leai-;uc gam('s. I'd say we place a
broader, if not overriding emphasis on our growth as women
and people, through recreational
activity. And dialogue with and
within the corresponding male
experience is a recognized part of
that.
Though things are changing.
"especially at Evergreen," we are
by no means divorced, in years
or miles. from the childhoods
and home towns which continue
to exert residual sexual condi·
tioning upon us. Most of us, as
litllt- girls, \,·ere socialized to a·
void team ~ports, certainly by
puberty, as unfeminine, and to
be intin idated by the idea of
playing sports with boys. If we
played w.th "the boys" we often
played badly. As willing pawns

to male egos. we allowed and
encouraged them to show oft
how well they played by comparison. We baited for the condescending but flattering reinforcement of our "feminine" image in their eyes as we (deliberdtely7 l struck out. or shied from
the ball, with a giggling snicker
and shaking curls
We were
somehow madt> lo rt>cognize only
male approval as legitimate ego
support. It was therefore in our
own best interests to lreat gmgt>rlyaround the fragile male self.

Name Withheld By Request

by Brad Pokorny
"I wanted to instigate a verbal
not on the air," said Peter Rexford. .,And ii happened.
They
wanted to do a radio talk show.
I wanted to instigate a riot. I
wanted every single person listening. And I did ii."
P~ter Rexford is the producer
and moderator of last Thursday's
"This Is Your Radio Show," a
two-hour,
weekly communityaccess program
broadcast
on
KA OS-FM. The goal is to air
different ideas and views. On
Thursday,
May 12, Rexford
turned the microphones over to
Vic Skaggs and )o<e Gill, two
young community members who
wanted to air their views about
the previous weekend's Women's
Music Festival (from which men
were strongly discouraged from
a1tend1ng) and the current state
oj the women,; libera11on movement.
The sh0w was a listener call-in
,1ffair. and m terms of audience
response, it was onf' of the most
,;uccessful programs KAOS has
ever aired. The phone was busy
constantly.
and calls were re•
ce1ved from Jll awund the Olympia areJ Tht•re were calls from
Lacey. Tumw,1ter and even Ta·
Cllm.l
Much ul the mlere-,.1 in the
c;how wa., generated by posters

in the Olympia .irea the day before the broa<lcac;t It WdS a hype
On Tuesday, May 10 . .:ilter Rexford had signed Skaggs and Gill
up for air time that Thur..-.Jay.
the two young men put up mimeographed posters which publicized the show as a forum on the
Women's
Movemt>nt. Rexford
decided to drum up more enthusiasm for the event. He ran
off 200 leaflets boldly emblazoned
with the Words "Fight Feminine
Facism"
(std and displaying a
crudely drawn male symbol on
top of .l female symbol.
Rexford put these new posters
up around campus and in town.
On Thursday, as the time for
the broadcast approached,
several grnups attempted to tie up
the KAOS phone lines so that
the program could not take place.
One person was told that it did

Another person installed herself
m the KAOS offices, and pleasantly asked to use the phone. The
would-be sahoteur was informed
that she W-"S tying up the wrong

Skaggs and Gill went on the
air, beginning with a 15-minute
introduction, during which Skaggs
extolled his radical credentials,
citing work with" the !women's!
movement" on the east coast,
time spent prolesling the Vietnam
war, and a firm belief in Marxism. Gill labeled himself ··a humanist."
Skaggs criticized the Women'c;
Festival for "oppressing·· ham, by
not allowing him to .lltend concerts in the library. He .1ccuwd
the "lesbian contingent"
11f tht•
women's movement ol pushm~
"man hatred"

She said that wh,11
Skaggs and Gill wt-re <,ay1n~
made her "really happy," as shf'
felt very much the '-amtt way,
but h.ld been afraid to speak out
The second caller was a man
who termed
Skaggs
opening
,;tatement "real obscure,"' 1ndicaling that he didn't understand
what they were doing.
The third caller was also a man
who disagreed with Skaggs and
Gill. He felt that --women ne,,d
to get together, women need to
£eel their own power."
A fourth caller, a man. pointed
out that perhaps many men's
fears of certain aspects of the

women's
movement,
such as
Skaggs' and Gill's, "arise from
our own inability to handle the
fact that women are rising up
against their oppression "
The fifth and sixth callers were
women. The fifth caller supported
Skaggs in his Mgument againc;t

Higher Education. to be located within a

t<1Clabaugh, comparable lots of land were
<,ellmgfor $12 • 20,000 an acre.

To pursue this task President Charles J.
McCann, Dean of Faculty at Central
Washington State College. was appointed
President of Evergreen on August 15,
1968. A one-time ball bearing factory inspector. McCann would now inspect the
possibilities for a non-traditional mstitullon of higher education.
McCann discussed Evergreen·s future in
several meetings throughout 1969. The
core group or planners, including memb<,rs of Evergreen's administrative staff,
nationally-distinguished educators. and a
number of "borrowed" students from colleges and universities across the country,
began to work out the concrete goals of
the college.

MUD AND MUCK
All was set for Evergreen's first year except the buildings. There was no Campus
Recreation Center, no College Activities
Building. Even the Daniel J. Evans Library
was not quite completM. Construction or
the dorms was behind schedule. So during
lhe fall of 1971 sludenls lived in teepe,s,
trailers, and singles apartments throughout the Olympia area. Seminars were held
wherever possible - often at the faculty
members' homes.
'Veterans of that first year recall the
mud and muck. but they also remember a
strong community feeling which they say

knowledge and ability."
In the fall of JQ70, four deans and 20
planning faculty were addM to the original core group to prepare a program for
Evergreen's first academic year m 1971.
This group dl'veloped a vocabulary to fit
the ideas of the original planners, and thus
were born such beloved terms as "coordinated studies," "contractM studies," "internships." ··portfolios," el al A governance system (COG) was formulated then.
in which "all members of the community"

grew fainter as years have pas~
and
Evergreen has grown. The geoduck became the college's mascot that yen. appearing on Evergreen sweatshirts with the
Latin words "Omnia Extares" (roughly
translated, "Let it all hang out") emblazoned on the front.

The political highlight of the year was
on Evergreen's Dedication Day, which coincided with the nationwide May Day
anti-war protests. Governor Evans, like
most of those present, wore a black armband. O1her political highlighls included a
legislative uproar over dogs on campus.
Thousands of dollars had 10 be spenl
cleaning carpets when dogs ran free
throughout the buildings, resulting in the
stringent dogs regulations we all abide by
to this day.
THE COLLEGE
THAT WOULD NOT DIE
The 1972 - 73 year found Evergreen a
target of criticism in the legislature and in
the media. The Daily Olympian attacked
the school in several editorials. and a few
state senators and representatives picked
up on the anti-Evergreen mood as the
January session loomed closer. Evergreen's
critics were invariably badly informed
about the college, and some of them were
completely ludicrous, although at the time
many Evergreeners took them quite seriously. One of the most notorious was
Republican Representative James Kuehnle,
who proposed an amendment to shut Evergreen down.

The faculty kept their jobs during the
reorganization, but some felt the ideals of
student/faculty equality were jeopardized
by the implementation of a faculty report
from the year before, which called for,
among other things, modular studies.
Mods, as they came to be known popu·
larly, were similar to traditional courses,
and many students and a few faculty
thought this meant Evergreen was "going
soft."

In the spring an Affirmative Action Policy was adopted by the Board of Trustees.
which set goals, quotas. and deadlines
for representation
of non-whites
and
women by 1985. A Non-White Disappearing Task Force was created that year to
provide recommendations for recruiting
minorities to Evergreer.
Rape and rape attempts became more
frequent near campus as the 1972 • 73
year progressed. Evergreen student Donna
Manson was reported missing March 21
- no trace of her has been found since.
During the spring of 1974 an accreditation team arrived on campus and scrutinized Evergreen for three days. At the end
of the visit, the 11 members lauded Evergreen with glowing commendations.
"Evergreen students seem to be unusu•
ally busy, interested. and personally in-

1975 saw many changes as well as more
of the same at Evergreen. Weird criticism
by outsiders continued - the weirdest
from KIRO President Lloyd Cooney, who
quoted a Gallup poll that four out of ten
college students thought violence was a
"sometimes justifiable" means when achieving change in American society.
Cooney claimed faculty members' politics
were responsible for this, and cited Evergreen as an example.
ln 1975 control of Services and Activiti~ fees were turned over to the students
(subject to final approval by the Trustees).
Out of each student's $169 paid tuition,
$50.50 is placed in lhe S&A fund. so the
shift of control was important.
That year also saw the successful fight
against a tuition hike and the appearance
of jazz pianist Ktith Jarrett and author
Rita Mae Brown. Other speakers and performers over the years included Jane
Fonda, Stokely Carmichael, Elliol Richardson. Margot St. James, and Ki'n Kesey.
Late in the year a massive teach-in on
:urriculum-planning
was organized by
students in resoonse to a plan bv ex-dean
Merv Cadwallader to divide Evergreen
into four ~arate
colleges. A two-day
moratorium did a lot to bring students together, although the long-range results
were questionable.
The most important recent events include McCann's resignation and the selection of his successor, ex-Governor Dan
Evans. These events you know about well,
of course, if you have followed their extensive coverage in the COOPER POINT
JOURNAL. If you haven'! been paying
close attention for the past year. we're
sorry, but another history of Evergreen
isn't scheduled for about a decade.

Spring 1973-Govemor
Dan Evans is interviewed by campus ntedia after a successful
rappel down the doclttower.
Physically 1972 • 73 broughl completion
of the College Activities Building and the
Campus Recreation Center. The following
year saw the completion of Phase I of the
Laboratory Building, and surprisingly, the
legislature approved a $6. 7 million budget
request for the proposed Communications
Building, which was to have been compleled by fall 1976 (and which is scheduled
to be previewed finally this wttkmd) .

"II is high Jim• lh< Rttd College of
Washington state be cut down," he said in
September 1973, "and that w• build a police academy or good trade school or
something of practical usage." A few years
later Kuehnle sponsored a survey of Olympians about the school. asking citizens to
take note of the suspicious fact that Evergreen's main square was known as "Red
Square." Kuehnle's attempts to close EvergrN!f\ failed miserably.
Amidst this atmosphere. Evergreen went
into the session with an operating budget
request of $17 million; we came out with
510.7 million. There were many reasons
for this large cut, including the fact that
enrollment projections had bttn !owe~
(an enrollment freeze went into, effect),
but what many Evergreeners noticed were
just the negative attitudes about the college.
A few vocal legislators feared that their
1967 decision had created an educational
Frankenstein. President McCann called
campus-wide meetings, sent letters out to
parents. and spent a lot of time at the legislature. After all the sensationalism died
down, Evergrttn made it through the session, helped by lhe firm supporl of Governor Evans and many legislators.

volved in their own learning," the team
wrote. "The college's ways of emphasizing
students' responsibility for their own learning appear to have evoked authentic selfmotivation in most students we have met
or observed."
By July Evergreen had earned official
accreditation - a full year ahead of schedule. This came as no surprise. but it did
seem to revitalize Evergreen's sense of
identity.

REORGAl"IZA TION
Evergreen's s«ond major crisis hit during the spring of 1973. "Reorganization"
added one more word to Evergreen's
growing dictionary. With reduced funding
and an enrollment freeze, Evergreen had
to cut back. The cutbacks were made in
non-academic personnel. "We built an administration and service organization capable of planning for and re-sponding to
fairly rapid growth." McCann said at a
Board of Trustees meeting. Seventy staff
members wert laid off.

ffBDSE
The only Mandarin
Chinese restaurant
in town.

by Karrie Jacobs
Imagine for a moment that
Washington, Oregon, and Northern California decide to secede
from the United States sometime
in the not-too-distant
future.
Suppose they form an ecologically-minded, extremely innovative
society populated by well-adjusted. happy citiuns. It would be
sort of like Evergreen, without
the beauty bark, and the concrete, and all those funny landscaping machines.
Well ... Maybe it wouldn·t
be anything like Evergreen. In
any case, a man named Ernest
Callenbach wrote a book about
just such an occurrence, entitled
Ecotopia, which has found its
way onto the reading lists of
many program seminars here. It
is this year's Zen and the Art of
Motorcycle Maintenance,
and
joins the ranks of Small Is Beautiful and The Structure of Scientific Revolutions as an Evergreen
"fave."
Given the book's popularity in
these parts, it was not surprising
that Ecotopia's author made an
appearance in Lecture Hall One
on Monday. May 16, speaking
on modern technology, misguided and otherwise, environmental
issues, and sociological affairs
which stem from or produce
Ecotopian society.
The book tells the story of a
reporter from the United States,
Wilham Weston, who journeys
into Ec0topia 19 years after its
secession. The year is 1999, and
the U.S. and Ecotopia have not
had diplomatic relations in nearly two decades. Weston is the
first official visitor from the U.S.~
and his travels provide him with
a limitless supply of things to
write home about. The book is
comprised of Weston's journals
and newspaper articles which
tell of the eccentricities of Ecotopian life, the lack of automobiles, the ritual war games, the
immense respect for trees and
wildlife, and the strong Ecotopian
women who have this strange
inclination towards sleeping with
crusty American journalists.

TECHNOLOGICAL IDIOCY
Callenbach,
who considers
himself a city-dweller rather than
a back-to•the-lander,
talked a
great deal about developments in
the Bay area. He discussed San
Francisco as the crowded American city of the present, not as
the Ecotopian fantasy city of the
future. He cited the Bay Area
Rapid Transit system (BART~ as
an example of "technological
idiocy," a case where high tech•
nology was used where medium
technology would do, yielding

unsatisfactory results. BART was
intended to be a transit system
that would be so efficient and
so sophisticated that it would
put New York, Paris, Montreal.
and the rest of the world to
shame. It was to be completely
computer-operated.
eliminating
the need for motormen in the
coaches. The Westinghouse Corporation was contracted to design the computer system, a dubious move according to Callenbach.. "It's dangerous to rely on
Westinghouse lo build a toaster,
let alone a computer system," he
said. Callenbach went on to describe how the computer, when
completed, could not tell where
cars were on the track, and said
the "brake" and "go ahead" sig·
niils ran on the same transistor
circuit and occasionally got confused. These technical problems,
along with incidents of the rear
doors flying open while the
streamlined trains sped along at
80 mph, necessitated the use of
human motormen on each train
to back up the bumbling computer. Of course, the ultra-modem
BART is archaic compared to the
Ecotopian national railroad which
runs by magnetic propulsion at
360 kilometers per hour, but
then, that's all in the future.
Callenbach is fascinated by the
possibility of living an ttologically sound existence in the middle of the city, and he talked
about the Integral Urban House,
a project in Berkeley which is
trying to maintain a self-contained living situation in tenns
of waste disposal, power, and
food. He described the structure
itself as a "funny little wooden
house, undistinguished from all
the other funny wooden houses
in the area." The project has
all sorts of eco-amenities includ•
ing a Clivus mulch toilet, which
degrades waste without using
water, and a small scale solar
heating capacity. The household
members recycle their urine for

use as nitrogen fertilizer for their
productive
vegetable garden.
They also keep their rabbits and
chickens living in close proximity
because, in theory, flies attracted
to the rabbit shit will be eaten by
the chickens.
When asked what his intentions were in writing Ecotopla,
whether he set out to write a
piece of literature, or simply to
make a social statement, Callenbach replied that if he were a
critic reviewing the book he
would describe it as a "cleverly
melodramatized tract." Callen•
bach does not think of himself
as a novelist. His primary work
1s as an editor, both for Rim
Quarterly Magazine and at the
University of California Press,
where he is a book editor. "l
happen to have a talent for editing. I like doing the nitty gritty
job of going through a manuscript, fixing it up, helping ~he
author with it," he said, talking
about his work with the film
Quarterly which he has worked
on since 1958. "And l love movies. Even though I abolished
them in Ecotopia, I love movies.''
Callenbach wrote one othet
book, which came out in 1972,
called Living Poor with Style.
It was a guidebook on saving
money without compromising
your standard of living. These
days he finds little time to write
between tours and editing.
Ecotopia was printed in 1975
as a private venture by Callenbach and a number of friends.
He did it that way out of necessity, because all the publishers
the manuscript was submitted to
rejected it.
So far, 25,000 copies have
been sold and they are selling at
the rate of 2300 a month. Bantam
Books, who originally rejected it,
has just purchased the rights to
publish it in a mass market
paperback edition. Callenbach
and friends got a sizeable ad•
vance from Bantam, and Banyan
. Tree Books still has the right to
publish its own edition.
In general, Callenbach lives a
fairly conventional life in a house
in the vicinity of the U.C. Berkeley campus. He does a little ~ardening, a little carpentry, lives
with a woman he is not married
to, wants to visit China, and is
not a vegetarian.
Callenbach certainly doesn't
live an Ecotopian existence, but
then he can't be expected to. Fiction 'is fiction, after all. He does
have his ideals and his fears
about modern industrial society,
and he figures, "Either we will
walk in an Ecotopian direction
with some dignity or we will be
kicked there screaming."

A Dream In 35mm

by Karrie Jacobs
As a child, as a near adult,
and at many points in between, I
have entertained the fantasy of
recording my dreams, not in
hastily-scrawled notes in a spiralbound notebook placed at the
side of my bed, for expressly
that purpose, but in instantly
replayable living color. I conceived of a neurological cable to
carry my dreams from my brain
into a video recorder. J always
assumed that other people, perhaps most people, had that desire
at some point in their lives.
Now it seems that one person,
Robert Altman, has come as
close as is hum~mly possible to
making a dream that is readily
retrievable and accessible to audiences outside of the dreamer,
relying on film rather than the
eccentricities of memory.
The film, 3 Women, is actually
based on a dream that Altman
had. and it has all the enigmatic,
frustrating, elusive qualitie-s of a
dream, including a large dose of
excruciating realism.
The film mainly follows the
lives of two women, Millie Lammoroaux (Shelly Duvall) and
Pinky ROS<e(Sissy Spacek). while
a third, Willie Uani~ Rule). is a
constantly present observer, ranly speaking. but always visible.
Millie is an employtt in good
standing at the nursing home,
where she walks elderly patients
around a hot pool while carry•
ing on endless monologues about
recipes for tuna melts, or men,
or dinner parties with men that
play Scrabble and eat tuna melts.
No one every pays any attention
to her attempts at conversation,
not the old people, nor the other
bathing suit clad attendants, or
the Kildare-like interns at the
hospital where she eats lunch
every day. At least with the eld•
erly patients she seems to have a
certain amount of charm, or
sparkle, simply ~ause
they are
so dull, so lifeless in comparison,

walking around the pool, falling
asleep in their therapeutic baths.
In any other context Millie seems
like an overbearing fool. snubbed
by the interns, ridiculed by the
barbeoiers. consistently closing
her car door on her dress so that
it flaps in the wind all the way
home through the California
desert.
Then Pinky Rose appears on
the scene, a bland little girl with
no dettttable personality. a new
girl at the rest home. Millie shows
her the ropes, walking her around
the pool as if she were crippled,
and Pinky is entranced. Pinky
thinks that Millie is the "most
perfect person" she's ever met.
Everything from the flower decals on Millie'5 mustard-colored
Pinto, to the little sign on the
bulletin board in Millie's pastelcolored plastic apartment which
says "Clean is Sexy," convinces
Pinky of Millie's perfection. Mil•
lie. who can make perfect rosettes
on Ritz crackers with spray-can
cheese, is a figure to be worshipped by Pinky, who can not
even open a Sau-Sea shrimp
cocktail without spilling it all
over herself.
Then there is Willie, the silent,
staring, pregnant ''Earth•mother,"
painting murals on the bottoms
of swimming pools of contorted
creatures, sometimes sneering,
sometimes laughing, with limbs,
tails and breasts going off at all
angles. Willie is married to and
pregnant by Edgar, a walking,
talking wild-west diche. a relentless bad joke who has drunken
sexual encounters with Millie,
and with Pinky when she adopts
Millie's personality.
3 Women is partially a study
in pointless, unhappy lives, but
it is more than that because the
film itself has the dignity that its
characters lack. The film does
not seem like something that
could possibly come out of a
major American studio, It has
b«n compared to Fellini or Berg•
man, but it would be unfair to

call the film an imitation of either
of those styles. An interesting
fact is that Shelly Duvall wrote
80 percent of hN' dialogue. and
so she pretty much created her
own role; but other than that,
the film is Altman as writer, pro•
ducer and director.
The dream that the movie was
based on came at a difficult time
for Altman. The movie he was
working on at the time, Buffalo
Bill and the Indians, was nearing
release and it didn't look very
promising. He had made extensive preparations
to produce
films of Ragtime and Breakfast
of Champions, but those had just
fallen through, his wife was in
the hospital having an operation,
and Altman had a dream: ''Two
young girls from Texas meet in
a desert community, come to
terms with the undercurrents in
their lives, and undergo a meta•
morphosis."
He wrote down as many im•
ages as he could recall and pre•
sented his idea 10 20th Century
Fox executives who gave him an
initial go-ahead. With a thirty•
page outline and two Texas girls,
Spacek and Duvall, he started
production of the film on location in Palm Springs, California.
Basing a film on a dream seems
like an act of desperation for a
top director who may have feared
going under into the mire of me•
diocrity.
Acts of desperation
usually yield results. one way or
the other, and in this caSt' impetuosity paid off.
3 Women is a movie that you
should go see, without a doubt,
but don't go expecting an evening
of light-hearted entertainment,
The movie is not without humor.
but it is often humor born out of
frustration. There are times when
it's easier to laugh. Often Pinky's
clumsiness, her inability to move
when she has to move, is both
embarrassing
and frustrating.
It's like trying to run in a dream
when your legs are made of lead.
There are times when Pinky becomes Carrie from Spacek's previous movie. and it seems like
som('one is about to abuse her,
drop pig's blood on her head or
throw tampons at her at any
moment, and you cringe.
The movie ends like a dream
ends. Suddenly you're awake,
but it's not like awakening and
finding that everything is clear•
cut and universally okay after a
confusing dream. You just wake
up wondering.
3 Women is currently playing
at the Harvard Exit in Seattle,
and rumor has it that it will be
making its way south to Olympia
in the summer.
