AN EXTREMELY
DANGEROUS TECHNOLOGY
The inadequacies
of nuclear
trchnology,
as well as its unfav•
orable economics
(unfavorable
for the consumer,
not for the
power companies), and the questionability
of its need, were iterated by the speakers at the rally
and summed up by the Crabshell
Alliance's Declaration of Resistance to nuclear power, which
~.as read to the crowd, and states
m part:
_
_
We are commtt1Prl tn an 1m-

mediate halt to the construction
and operation of nuclear power
plants in Washington,
the Pacific
Northwrst,
the nation,
and
throughout
the world.
Nuclear
power is dangerous to all persons
and all life. and a grave error for
our society. We must, as a people, tum instead to the alternatives of energy conservation, and
safe, dean, renewable sources of
energy.
The Crabshell statement goes
on to propo5e alternatives to the
widespread construction
of nuclear power plants, and restates
the alliance's
commitment
to
fighting the nukes.
The last speech at the fann
was given by a Grays Harbor
school teacher,
Robert Bussabarger, who spoke about the fear
that characterized
discussion of
nuclear power, and the move•
ment to stop it, and he spoke of
the exploitation of land and peopie by power companies.
"Why does this area deserve
the title, 'the Appalachia of the
Pacific Northwest'7"
he asked
rhetorically.

Singing and dripping,
the regional groups came together to
form one crowd again, and it
was decided to postpone
the
scheduled workshops
till after
the march, because the rain was
making people eager to get moving.
"Who asked for all this rain7'"
inquired someone on the platform.
··My mother ordered it." someone else responded.
"'Dixy is cloud seeding again."
said another voice.
Then the march began, lo the
tune of "When
the Crabs Go
Marching
In."" Demonstrators
started
walking
two-by•two
along the shoulder of the road,
being careful not to tread over
the white line, and into the actual roadway.
The sight of a
long line of people, some singing, some carrying signs, snaking
down the road. attracted quite a
bit of attention.
Elma residents
drove slowly, observing the spectacle and other residents stood

More Daycare, But ot
brary building.
Karras went
to Dean Clabaugh, Administrative Vice President. She suggested
an on-campus day care program

for faculty and staff. The original
idea was to use a Modular

Hous-

ing Unit and th• Day Care Advisory Committee
for Faculty
and Staff was created. Marsha
Stead was hired as a consultant
to detennine the feasibility
and
level of interest for this type of
program. The study and Stead's
services cost about $600.
One of the committee's
first
moves was sending out a questionnaire
to staff and faculty.
The results uncovered
a baby
boom at Evergreen with 19 infants and 16 preschoolers needing day care.
In early February, the committee discovered that most students
living in the Mods were opposed
to having a day care center located there. They also realized

that if 15 infants were taken into
a modular unit, the cost to parents would be more than $13 a
day, which was considered to be
much too expensive. Some committee members became discour•
aged, especially with planning infant cue. I spoke to one mother
who was disappointed
in the
committee. "Community
input is
great, but they took a whole
year just to decide whether or
not to do something . . . They
aren't trying to do anything for
kindergarteners.
It only lasts
about two and a half hours a day

and th•n what do you do7 They
get all this wonderful

programs and then it's back to

In Seattle, and even

in Silverdah,, th• kids all go off
to kjndergarten together and then
at 11 : 30, a day penon comn
and gets them,"

in a van, videotaping the march.
The reaction
of the locals
ranged from being vehemently
opposed to the marchers, to a
good-humored
tolerance,
to
strong support. One woman who
stood on the sidelines in downtown Elma watching, said simply,
··1 think it's stupid. This is just a
bunch of kids," when she was
asked what she thought of the
demonstration.

he boiled it away."
And there were many well deserved shots at Governor Ray in
the lyrics. for example:

aptations of folk favorites were
more clever than the usual prot'est variations, reflecting a very
serious movement with a sense
of humor. Take for example the
Crabshell version of John Prine's
song Paradise:
""Daddy won·t you take me

Down by the Satsop where
paradise lay.
Well, I'm sorry my son. but

gathered after the last speech to
hold organizational
meetings.
There was a sizable contingency
from Olympia,
which consisted
primarily
of Evergreeners and
their friends.
Future meetings

were collected for a mailing list.
Then the group broke into song,

Enought-on

Bonnie Gillis, a member of the
committee, says that it is unfortunate that Driftwood
can't take
kindergarteners,
but added that
there is an open community
school in Tumwater that does.
One definite plan for this fall
has come from the committet•s

efforts. On September 6th. Driftwood Day Care Center is starting a pilot program for full time
care of staff and faculty mem•
hers" children. The program is for
preschool children ages two to
five and it will cost $6 a day.
These children will join the students' children, but the new program will not affect the quality
of care, or student costs. There

w.ill be more staff, and Clabaugh
has arranged for a trailer, formerly used for office space, to be
moved to Driftwood
for the ex•
pansion. Day care hours will be

from 7,30 - 5:30. Th• registration deadline is Augut.t 5th, 1977.

UNDYING FAITH
A nun from Elma said that she
was in favor of nuclear power
because she felt it would be
needed by future generations but
she went on to say about the
demonstration
itself, ··1 think
that you're doing a good thing
because that is the way you believe it should be. you know,
and I think you should support
what you believe Then you have
to think. because I am almost 70
years old and I've been a Catholic sister for a long time. 52 years,
and I've seen lots of this type of
thing. so you know, I don't really
support one side or the other,
because I feel that both people
have the better good in mind.
"It (the nuclear plant) means a
61~ thing for tht> culture nght
here and a new thing for them.
Wi1h the farming being phased
out. it will give them new life.
you know, and new energy to
work ahead."
One man watching the proces·
sion was supportive of the No
Nuke movement.
'"It's a good
deal," he said. '"It should have
been done a long time ago." And
on nuclear power he said, 'Tm
strictly agin' it.'"
The approximately
600 marchers gathered at the end of their

trek al the WPPSS office for a
final rally. Green helium balloons
whose travels on the wind were
to illustrate the rapid spread of
radiation
from a nuclear accident, were released at the final
gathering point, statements were
made, and songs were sung.
On one of the many crowded
vehicles bringing people back to
the cow pasture to retrieve their
own cars, a woman was discuss•

ing the good fttlings
about

she had

the day's events and the

Crabshell Alliance itself, sentiments shared by many of the
participant's in the demonstration.
'This is really great," she said,

The
"New" Breed
of Evergreener

ity, toward one flickering candle.
I, however, try to avoid the
"typical Evergreen student" labels, which hang lik• Oy paper
around here. I would prefer to
be one of the new breed of Evergreen students.
I am not typical. For one thing
I hate the animals. I hate slugs.
To me they're horrible. I shiver
just to think of the slimy things,
crawling out of the swamp, forest or whatever, to squash themselves on the paths in front of
unsuspecting passersby. 1 hate
the paths. Running practically in
straight lines betwren everywhere
they make me frel as though the
trees and grass were designed and
built as an afterthought. As for
the trees and grass, they're as
disguting as the rest. The lawns
are liable too to rumble and
squirt me if I so much as look
sideways at them, making me
afraid to leave the paths in case I
get caught in the middle of some
vast expanse, and doused with
water loadW with heaven-onlyknows-what. The trees block out
the sun (when it shines), scatter
leaves. needles, cones and whathave-you all over everything.
They fill them .. lves with birds
that make god-awful
noises,
chirping and carrying on at four
in the morning, just when I'm
trying to get to sleep. No, definitely not.
Being one of the new brttd, 1
am not some hippy escapist. retiring to an exclusive education
resort in the green and lovely,
God's own Northwest. But rather,
a keen, with no time to lose, person attracted by the good facilities. There's frttdom to study in
whatever manner the subjrc:t de•
mands, in an informal atmosphere which promotes closeness
to the instructor and removed
the impersonality which I find
counter-productive. 1 have given
up a better way of life to be able
to use what no other place has
offered me. lt is a minor thing
that I hate it here.
For all its faults, I annot fail
to give credit to the college in
one regard. Really there's very
little to like about this place, but
at least we don't have to put up
with any student pranks and
sickening fun. Capping wttk for
example was very tastefully organized, and had none of the
trouble I traditionally associate
with graduations. There was no
capping magazine, packed cover
to cover with literature copied
from toilet walls and dirty sexist-

racist jokes. Nothing to be banned
by indecent publica.tions tribunals
damned by Patricia Sartl•tts and
their "wholesome IOciety" soci•
eties, appropriatesf by printen
and be giggled over by school
boys behind toilets at playtim•.
There was no boat race ac;oss
the sound, which would have
wasted hundreds
of student
hours, in the construction of
totally useless, bizarre floatables,
to be manpowerW across the
water demonstrating a waste of
energy. Not to mention the waste
of perfectly good rotten food that
would have been hurled from
craft to craft, thank goodness.
We can be grateful that student
energy is channeled into useful
and responsible activities.
It is said that Evergreen is
threatened at its roots, and occasionally something is done, like
a proposal written at the legislature, to investigate the cheapest
way to phase out the college, or
the possibility of making it a
graduate extension of the University of Washington. After all is
said and done, The Evergreen
State 'r-qllege is still an offer of
altern.ftlve education. Here, there
is no, we and they, us and them.
Hurray for our friends in administration, who by their accessibility can share our worries. We
must be thankful for such a benevoler1t guardian to tell us of
our enemies, who will fight, if
necessary, for our rights.
I may be new, but I don't believe Evergreeners are good for
nothing, and can prove it. Even
now, if you are: a student you
can do it too. Get up, get something to eat, have a shit, masturbate, then go back to sleep.

Be Here Now
To the Editor:
The best time to move into a
college town is in the summer.
That is why I am in Olympia, or
actually Lacey, at the present
time.
I went to visit the editor of the
Cooper Point Journal, to ask her
if I could write for the paper.
She asked me what I like to write
about. "Poetry and short, short
stories," 1 said, "but I'll try anyth ing:·
Then the editor went on to say
that most of the work here fits in
with a style known as journalism

and that what is written in the
paper takes research (with an almost capital R).
I told the editor that if I could
I would bring in something fo~
her to read before the next dead•
line. Wh•n I left the office, I had
the first summer issue snuggling
and at home beneath my armpit. ( Like the business executive
who grabs the Wall Street Journal, folds it precisely in half. and
whips it until the lower part of
his shoulder, the armpit, brings
th• paper to a half. And then, almost without thinking, the rest
of the arm closes, locking into
place that which «-xists freely and
leafy, in air.) I was in business.
Now what was I to do. She.
• the editor, Karrie Jacobs, was
asking me to take hold of the
surrounding area and give it some
importance.
So I thought.
My style has never be-en intended to be read by the public.
You people. Poetry. before the
trees had their destiny written
out for them, was originally
memorized and spoken aloud.
Poets would go from town to
town and the people would get
out of their houses, walk towards
the center of the community. and
LISTEN. Now we have paper,
and information is given to us
like computers.
Beep, beep.
We look at the words, either
go wow, or have our eyelids
lower the curtain for us, and then
move on into our same natural
habits.
How can temporary words on
a throw-away paper have any
real mind-bending
effects7 It
would be difficult.
The Cooper Point Journal exists mainly to feed students facts.
Journalists love facts. Facts are
made out of black ink to be put
onto white paper. There are no
facts in a rainbow.
A journal can/ also be made to
capture everyday events, to reveal in a small BE-HERE-NOW
way, the little significances that
make up a larger, more LONGRUN, knowledg•.
The true growth in a newspaper-journal is to combine art,
which is immediate creation that
has timelsss qualities, with facts
that have concreteness, which is
the legs - instead of the wings.
I hope to be one who will con•
tinue with the growth of this
budding, Evergreening paper

There were at least 11 demon•
strators arrested for trespassing
or obstructing traffic at the Naval
Submarine Base in Bangor, Washington during the week of July
18 - 25. Some of the protesters
who were taken in are Evergreen
students. As the number of arrests increases, so does the tension at Trident. Communication
between base workers and demonstrators is limited.
Right now, much of the controversy centers around a single
white line which was painted on
the pavement in front of the
base's main gate just prior to the
July 4th protest activities. The
line separates federal property
from Kitsap County. It is the deciding factor between trespassing
and legal protesting. There used
to be a public phone and a parking area in the white line zone,
and public access to the small
area.
EVERGREENER ARRESTED

Evergreen student
Michael
Caprio, a member of an antiTrident group called The Bangor
S~mmer Task ~orce, wa~arrested
with John Spnnger, a ~ltimore
man, on county property for obstructing tht now of traffic while
passing out leaflets. He stood
near the base entrance giving
workers invitations to a forum
on nuclear weaponry.
Caprio
says he stood in the only effective leanetting place. which was
also the safe,t position in terms
of traffic. "Cars were already
slowing down to enter the gate,
so we weren't obstructing traffic," he said. "We asked the man
who arrested us to point out
places that would have been suitable. but they seemed much more
dangerous and obstructive because the drivers would have had
to pull out of traffic and lean
across the passenger side to get a
leaflet."
Springer and Caprio were
taken to the Kitsap County Jail
in Port Orchard at 8 a.m. on
Tuesday, July 19th. Fingerprints
and pictures were not taken.
They were given prison clothn,
taken to a cell block, and told
that the arraignment would be at
9:30, but they were not taken to
court until 1: 30. At that time the
prosecuting attorney received a
note saying that a lawyer from

ALL WAQ

TIIAffL

the American Civil Liberties
Union was willing to defend
them. They were then taken to a
holding cell where they were
counseled by Robert Banghart,
the ACLU attorney. He was able
to get them a stay; no decision
as to a guilty or not-guilty plea,
and they were released at 5 that
afternoon. Since that time. Caprio
has decided to enter a plea of not "
guilty. He wants to argue for his
freedom of speech (through leafletting), rather than fight over
the technicalities of traffic obSlruction.
CROSSING,THE WHITE LINE
Caprio fee~ that (Jrotestors
have been treate'ti..unfairly at the
Naval Base at Bangor. According
to Caprio, Jim Douglas, a member of The Pacific Life Community, walked across the white line
to use the pho11e and was arrested
for trespassing. A short time
later, a reporter from The Bremerton Sun used the same phone
without any interference. Later
the phone was taken away.
Caprio says that Trident is using
scare tactics to keep its workers
away from the protestors and
that the guard at the front gate
copies down the license plate
numbers of those who stop. He
also claims that one of the security guards dressed in civilian
clothing tried to locate the demonstrators' base camp.
A Navy spokesperson
says
that the protests have not altered
activities inside the base, He did
not know why the tele'phone had
been moved away from the white
line area. He explained that the
Trident system is made up of
three elements - base, submarine
and missile. There are 50 - 75
companies involved in construction work at the Bangor Base.
The approximately 1,500 people
doing the construction work are
not connected with the Navy.
The people who go into the base
through the demonstration lines
are a combination of construction workers, contractors, m1li~
lary personnel, vendors and people who have official busiress inside.
There is more protest activity
plannW at the base from August 6 - 9 and on August 14th.
Perhaps then. the white lines will
disappear from both sides and
better communication will be established.

Deterrent policy m the United
States originated with Defense
Secretary John Foster Dulles'
doctrine of "massive retaliation"
which was made official in January 1954. The theory behind
deterrence is that deploying a nu~
clear weapons delivery system,
capable o/ surviving a first attack
with enough punch left over to
destroy the attacker, will discourage an enemy from striking
first. This doctrine, also adopted
by the USSR, has been the basis
for the situation of relative stability which has existed in the
intervening years.
In January 1974, however, Defense Secretary James Schlesinger
announced a major shift in American defense posture, one that
would supplement American deterrent capacities with weapons
capable of waging a "counter•
force" strike, aimed at the destruction, not of "soft" targets
for which detertent weapons are
intended (cities and industrial
sites) but "hard" targets constituting a portion of the opposite
side's deterrent capacity (missile
silos. command centers).
It is argued by its supporters
that a Counterforce system represents a more humane alternative to massive retaliation in that
it is intended specifically for military targets, not for populated
areas.
Those who are opposed argue
that a Counterforce system makes
a nuclear war far more likely.
Since a counterforce system destroys the opposition's retaliatory
capacity, it makes a first strike a
far _more attractive option to any
nation possessing it. Further, the
suggestion that one form of nuclear attack is "more humane"
than another broadens the range
of situations in which a nuclear
attack would seem a rationar alternative.

Be that as it may, the United
States is altering its strategic "triad" of weapons ( land-based missiles, submarine-based
missiles
and bombers) in order to make tt
counterforce effective Trident 1s
the submanne arm of the American Counterforce.
Ma1or maintenance and arming
of Trident submarines and Polaris submarines outfitted with
Trident missiles will be carried
out at one central base located
north of Olympia at Bangor on
Puget Sound. The reasons for
locating it there have to do with
considerations of missile range
and the accessibility of Soviet
targets, considerations of the distribuion of American and Soviet
Naval power, and also of the
temperament and density of local
inhabitants.
Because Bangor will be the
central base of operations for the
entire Counterforce arm of America's Strategic Triad, it will be
the primary Russian target .
above and beyond New York,
Washington, D.C., or industrial
centers ... , and above and beyond .iny other military target.
The Navy plans to build ten
Tride-nt submarines. The date for
their deployment 1s 1979. Each
Trident will be close to 200 yards
long, four stones in height and
about 18,000 tons in weight.
They will be qu1eter and fa,;;ter
than Polaris subs and will be
equipped with better defensive
sonar. Each sub will be capable
of carrying 24 Trident missiles.
The missiles themselves will be
developed in two phases. The
first, the C-4. will be deployed
on the Trident submarines and
on ten refitted Poseidon subs.
The more advanced D-5 missiles
will replace the C-4's on the Trident subs in 1987 barring unforeseen circumstances.
Following are tables delineating
the actual characteristics of Poseidon and those expected from

TO EAT WELL,
AND CHEAPLY
1\•,iple in Olympia now have
,1 d1Jnce at changing their eating
and t.1l1d buying habits, This op•
p,,rtunitv is officially called "The
Fi)urteen Ounce Okie Doke Fooi
Buvin~ Co-op,'" and is conven•
1t>ntlyhKated, for most of us hip
l-\'ergreen people, right in the
bustling business
section of
Olympia on Columbia Street,
ILhl a couple of doors down from
1he Salvation Army. Ifs a cooperative in the traditional sense,
,md its main interest is to people
in
:he community
and their
health.
Tf-.e people who started the
Storetront, as it is most commonly called. had the idea that
,inybody should be able to eat
\\'ell and cheaply. Charley Lutz,
Greg Reinemer, and Jim Cunningham went about trying to
achieve this goal. The first thing
th.it they dealt with was people
\\'ho already were into good eating habits. and involved in getting their own food. These people termed what are known as
11,,,d conspiracies." Conspiracy
Ut:n0tes. amongst these people, a

certain desire to survive without
corporate monopolies. In other
words the attainment of their
own goods free from any influence of large corporate structures.
In the Olympia area there have
been five to six "conspiracies"
over the past year. The number
of people in each "conspiracy"
varied from six households of the
"East Side Food Club," to the
two hundred people of another,
the "Compost Food Club." Most
of the people in the "conspiracies"
were in favor of this storefront
cooperative because it would cut
down the prices of food of the
same type they were buying, and
decrease their work load. "Conspiracies" are mostly socially
meaningful entities now, rather
than practical ones since the advent of the Storefront. Not all of
the "conspiracies" have terminated, even with the new storefront opened. The analogy here
isn·1 as mercenary as the classic
situation of the Seven-Eleven
moving into a neighborhood
with long-established Ma and Pa
grocers, but it's similar.
Smee its opening in May The
Fourteen Ounce immediately
gained a majority of its clientele
from "food conspiracies"
that
broke up because of its existence,
but, again the aim was to attract
other members of the community
and introduce them to this system of food purchasing and eating. To do this, the Storefront
offers a reduced rate to senior
citizens (whose center is across
the street) and a substantial reduction for anybody (member or
not) who buys fifty dollars of
food in one visit. It's a co-op,
however, and it's the members
who make it go.
UNEXPECTED POPULARITY
The membership fee is five
dollars for a lifetime and it means
that you receive your food at fift~n percent over wholesale (regular member). A non member

pays twenty-five percent over
wholesale. The third classification is "working member," which
·11esyou to prices or ten percent over wholesale in exchange
for three hours of work per
month. Currently the Storefront
membership adds up to over 700
people. The work load for forty
or so working members is divided
into cashiering, breakdown and
cleanup. It's been quite a feat,
according to Jim Cunningham,
the impromptu accountant,
to
try and efficiently run a store

very much in the plans. The
Storefront also acts as a distributor to the few "conspiracy''
groups that exist, both inside and·
outside of the Olympia community. These people get their bulk
shipments at five percent over
wholesale if they do their own
sorting and breakdown. Some
small businesses are also getting
into the act of buying their goods
from the Storefront. The Rainbow, SiSi's, and The lunch Box
restaurants receive some of their
goods from the Storefront. Headstart in Rainier has also started
buying goods from them, which
pleases the folks from the Storefront because it gives the kids

;

with forty or so people doing the
work and all of them learning
the prices and methods that are
required. There have been mistakes, but time will cure those.
Because the store is enjoying, or
rather staggering,
with unexpected popularity, the three permanent staff members,
Jim,
Charley and Anna, are kept busy
at all hours of the day, and often
into the night.
The Storefront is turning over
about twelve thousand dollars
worth of food every month, with
a stocked inventory of four to
five thousand dollars worth. This
is considerably more than was
expected for this point in time,
however, it isn't stopping them
from being ready for an even
more prosperous fall, which is

good food to eat, and informs
them of eating habits that are
substantially better than most
government institution diet plans.
IS IT WORTH IT1
It is there, down on Columbia,
ready to service anyone who
wants good things to eat at a reasonable price. People from "conspiracies" are basically happy because they no longer have to
guess at what kinds of quantities
they're going to purchase or
spend many laborious hours doing so. So, why should a person
go to this co-op7 Are the prices
really any better than at Marklt1 Jim figures that possible savings range from ten to twenty
percent. In Pennsylvania, where
he worked previously, setting up
food co-ops, the savings were in
the area of twenty to thirty per-

cent, but in that co-op they were
organized to sell mostly dairy
products and they were located
right in the middle of a dairy
belt. Here, there is a movement
towards organic goods and these
are often more expensive. The
most substantial savings at the
Storefront in Olympia are on
items like cheese (of which they
have twenty-five
varieties on
hand), seeds and nuts. Of course,
the relative lack of overhead
yields a great deal of the savings.
The Storefront Co-op is for·
people to function together in
purchasing good food. Another
goal of the co-op is to try to buy
exclusively local goods. Politically the store is aware of what
they are buying, so chances are
you won't be buying any goods
from Chile or other politically
oppressed countries.
Because of the relatively small
size of the store, this movement
is clearly established to accommodate a minority. The question
is who will the minority be? The
advent of the Storefront co-op
allows the participation of anyone who wants to take a minute
and sign up.
The people who run and are
involved in the co-op believe
that there is no such thing as a
community within a community
and so they hope their patrons
will come from all walks of lift.
Because of economic realities
such as high costs of labor involved in corporate food distribution and the physical realities
of what food is becoming, the
Storefront Co-op is enjoying a
good deal of business and expects more in the not-too-distant
future.

What Did You Say
You Were Studying?
he Wolf Reintroduction Study
by Peter Nielson
Up until the early 1900s wolves
were a part of the natural fauna
of the Olympic peninsula. By
1920. the last Oly'!lipic wolf had
been shot and the complex predator relations between the wolves
and the deer and elk were broken. In 1935. Adolph Murie, a
well-known biologist, suggested
that consideration be given to the
reintroduction of this important
predator to improve the health
and well-being of the wolf's prey
and to complete the long list of
original wildlife in this wilderness
habitat.
It wasn't until 1975, however,
that serious consideration of a
wolf reintroduction was given. In
that year, a group of Evergreen
State College students obtained a
grant from the National Science
Foundation to study the biological feasibility of such a project.
Success at obtaining grants is
nothing new for Evergreen students. The unique thing about
the wolf study is that it continued
after the initial funding dried up
and people are still studying
wolves at Evergreen today. The
wolf study has a lot of new faces
now, as well as diversified goals
and objectives. Evergreen wolf
researchers are not only committed to studying the biological
feasibility of wolf reintroductions
but are also involved in studying
the ecology and behavior of
wolves, dogs and coyotes and
the social implications of wolf
reintroductions, while producing
materials for public education on
wolf biology.
Last winter, nine new students
and one member of the original
!:.ludy !,,tarted getting together for
weekly seminars on wolf ecology
and behavior and carrying on
the wolf research. In seminars
they discussed their readings and
their observation
of captive
wolves at Seattle's Woodland
Parl,,. Zoo. Many of these students also helped to organize and
add to the research files in the
new wolf office, while maintaining correspondence with the public and scientists involved in wolf
researct. all across North America. All of these students participated in the Wolf Study while
involved in other full-time programs, some of them receiving
academic cred,it for their work.
ln early 1977, grants were obtained from the Black Hills and
Seattle chapters of the National
Audubon Society to produce an

educational slide-tape presentation, and a pamphlet on wolf biology, wolf/ man interactions,
and the social problems inherent
in wolf reintroductions.
These
productions are being completed
this summer with the help of all
those involved in the research
group.
Also this summer, preliminary
plans are being made to obtain
grants to study the captive red
wolves at Tacoma's Pt. Defiance
Zoo, and the coyotes on the
Olympic Peninsula.
The red wolf study presents an
opportunity for a few Evergreen
students to get involved in fresh
research on an extremely endangered species, about which
very little is known. The work
will involve Evergreen researchers
assisting with the behavioral end
of a taxonomical study of the
wolves. It is hoped that students
with an interest in animal behavior will take advantage of
this opportunity to practice regular observation next fall, winter
and spring. A couple of students
are already planning to work on
this study as parts of individual
contracts in zoology and animal
behavior.
Other students are interested
in writing a grant proposal to
study the coyote populations on
the peninsula, which appeared
after the elimination of the wolf.
This study will probably involve
a survey of coyote population
numbers, movements and feeding
habits as well as a study of its
interaction with the human residents of the peninsula. The study
will be a natural extension of the
original woH study, determining
the changes that have come to
the peninsula with the coyotes
and the possible impacts of a reintroduced wolf population on
them. These things really should
be analyzed carefully before actilm can be taken on wolf reintroduction.
Other projects could arise for
the wolf study in the coming
year. The opportunities are certainly there. If the trend continues, canid research al Evergreen
could become a big thing in the
future.
If you're interested in gelling
involved with the canid research
group. stop by the new office in
Lab II 3250, or call one of the
members at home.

The End Of
The Beauty Bark Era?

David Reuben Boniske, a student in the Back to the Land Program, has been reported missing
by fellow students, and his parents of Asheville, North Carolina. From information gathered
thus far, it appears that the last
time David was seen in this area
was around July 7th when he attended a portion of a program
lecture.
David is known to be a hang
glider enthusiast and reportedly
made a trip to the San Francisco

area between spring and summer
break. He drives a blue 1974
MGB with North Carolina license
plate AAS-562. David is described as being 6' 5·· tall. 170
lbs., blue eyes, brown hair, 21
years of age.

BDiA VIOR MODIFICATION
I breakfasted with the director,
and she showed me a very normal camp schedule except for
nutrition classes and something
called "changes."
"What are

"Oh, that's behavior mod."
I squirmed, "You mean behavior modification 1" I had visions

Hahn says that the only problem she sees with the camp is one
that can't be helped, that the

progress so far and 1.. 1, that
there has bttn no cheating, in
spite of a fairly easy access to
goodies on campus.
Every Monday, campers nervously step onto "Porky Pig,"
the scale, and the exact truth. A
normal weekly loss is about four
pounds. They are allowed some
privacy, with only counselors
present at the weighing-in. Progress reports go to parents and
this provides some extra incentive
to the girls who are aware that
the programs costs about $27 a
day.
I spoke with Stephanie Ryan,
an attractive girl from Denver
who lost 10 pounds before coming and 101/1 more have come
off so far at camp. "It's rewardp
ing when you get on the scale
and when they measure you,"
she said, "Th~re are inches that
are gone . . . the first week I
only lost one pound and I was
really depressed but the coun..lors and everybody else cheered
me up and encouraged me, and
the second week I lost four and a
half pounds." I then asked her if
she ever thought about cheating.
"I don't think I could plan it out
and go and pay for it but, if it
was just suddenly there, l would
be tempted to just grab it." She
seemed to be enjoying her summer. "It's fun, just like regular
camp; when you exercise, you
really feel like you're doing
something for yourself. l can get
into size 31 shorts now and it's
been a long time since 1 could
do that." I wondered how she
felt about being at a college instead of a camp. "I really like
the campus, but I sort of don't
like all the people being around,
I'd rather be at a totally separate
place."
Plan on staying thin if you
don't like math. Those girls carry
around charts and graphs and
count every calorie they consume. When you visit the camp,
you can sense the hard work,
and fierce determination. It's as
if the group has a balloon overhead saying "See us, we're not
eating!" But most can laugh at
themselves. They have a porker
song complete with squeal, and
T-shirts that say "You got to
move it to lose it." They had a
talent show and someone dressed
up as a potato chip with a sign
attached; "Bet you can't eat just
one."
THE CROAN LEVEL
Evergreen is a place with
enough facilities to give campers
a wide variety of activities. They
bum about 1,000 calories a day
by playing volleyball,
soccer,
tennis, softball, raquetball, dancing, swimming,
running and
working out.
The camp brochure describes
Murrieta as partially a charm
school. Counselors have done
some assertiveness training and
worked on communications skills
with the girls instead. Also a hair
stylist and a makeup expert have
given classes. Hahn says the girls
are just like any other group of
teenagers; they talk about boys
a lot. She is a little disappointed
that so many of them want to be
like the model images seen on
TV, but the rewards she has gotten from working at Murieta are
many. "In the beginning when
you'd say, 'Okay, let's do some
difficult exercise,' the whole room
would go 'OhhhJ' but the groanlevel is way down. It's really neat
at the end of the summer when
their clothes get too big and their
pants keep slipping down." Hahn
blames the female-fatness phenomenon at least partially on
"the whole P. E. number. Men
are pushed athletically and women are largely ignored."
