abo ut whether an open dialogue has been
established between the Journal a nd the
Coaliti on, a nd w hether agreement has
been reached. What would happen if a n
agreeme nt wasn't made? What would
happen if the m a jo rity of S&A Board
members were non-white, and in alignment with the Third World toalition, as
is now the case, an d the Third World
Coal itio n made unreasonable demands on
the Jou rn al? The CPJ would have the
cho ice to p rint either w hat they, the Coalition wanted, w hich would compromise
the integrity of the Journal, or suffer a
greatly reduced budge t.
Wha t are the consequences of a reduced
budget of the proportion that was under
consideration? Of the $28,000 budget for
the CPJ actually only $12, 000 is supposed
to come from S&A money and the res t
from advert ising receipts. If you sub trac t
$5,000 from that you have $7,000. This
money is not enough to fund operations
for a paper that looks anything like the
present CPJ. The Journal needs a full
budget all ocated each year in order to
develop itself as a viab le campus
institution. I think the S&A Board could
more effectively carry out their Affirmati ve Ac ti on aims u si n g an incentive
method in which t hey'd promise to give
the Journal an extra $1,000 , for instance,
at the end of the year for the summer paper if in their judgment the Journal had
sat is·fac torily met the needs of Third
World People on campus. Still I'm not
certain that this is an entirely proper thing
to do, either.
2) The fund is not necessary . The
reason for it is to discourage racial
discrimination, wh ich I don't believe has
some people from me a nd I hope so m ~
understanding can be achieved soon.

taken place at the Journal in the first
place. T he CPJ is only discriminatory
insofar as it requires that copy meet certain stan da rds of qua li ty a nd gets in before deadlines. It isn' t owned by a grou p
of white, ma le businessmen who practice
racial discrimination , it has a voluntary
student staff and any student can work on
it.
In the past there have been some misundersta ndings between the Journal a n d
certain T hird World people, but to my
knowledge the Journal has never been
publicly accused of discrimination. So
Why then is the Third World Reserve
Fund necessary? In add iti on, if the edi tor
is so comfy wi th it anyway, what's the
need for it?
Instead of this Th ird World Reserve
Fund I'd like to see people from both the
Journa l a nd the Third World Coalition
meet each o ther halfway in order to
understand each other's organizations and
how they can learn to work together. In
my opinion, this way of doing things
would avo id an adversary sort of
relationship and would b e much more
positive . I apo logize for having aliena ted

During the past weeks , members of th'e "Wom.en in Communications " program have
been II1te rVlew lllg women w ith varied jobs w ithin th e communications field , Recently,
members of tlu: !Jrogram travelled to Seatt le 's K I NG-- TV to talk with Shirley Hudson,
who (WltiJ C lIf f Lell z) co -iJ osts til e "Seattle Todav" show: Mrs. Dorothy Bullitt, who
,?oug ht and stl!/ owns KING Broadcasting ; and Dana Dwinell, ass istan t producer of tIle
Seat tle l oday show .
Above are (from left) program instructor Margart!t Gribskov ,' Maggie Simms and
C laudza Brown , pre!Jaring to v ideotape th e Hudson interview.
by T i Flemin g
For many women sta rting III communica tions, telev isit, n i ~ more th an jus t a
step beyond newspr int (w here only a
name is sl'pn ) nr radio (w here only a

Shi rley Hudson , in a recen t interview
with me mbe rs of the "Wo men in Commun ica tion s" program , sa id th ought fu lly,
" So mJny viewers think that we're somehow set apart . . because of a set of
wires and electronic imp ulses..
but a
TV job can be uniqu e . . . we're not neces~ar il y cha in ed to desks ... "
lluLi son is o ne of th e ho sts o n KING's
"Sl'dttll' Tptl.:!y " ~ h(l w . T he program is
woman-oriented a nd contains "I nfl at ion
Fighters" segments a long w ith serious in terviews a nd light chatter.
The program 's set looks like the living
roo m of many homes: plush semi -circular
co uch , plexiglass-and -chro me coffee table
rat ta n s h e lv in g, a ubiquitou s fern:
Hudson slips easil y into the role of hostess
of this "home." She is a ttract ive and gracio us, good- hum o red and relaxed . She
has developed a n interesting philosophy
abo ut the se t a nd her role:
" This is a comfortable sofa .
almost
like a psych iatrist's co uch . If you induce
th e rig ht kind of atmospil ere. .. they
(guests) will forge t , just for a moment ,
that th ey're o n tile air - and then you
cml get into some 'co mp lete ' interviewing. "
Yet, for all her p ro fessionalism as an in terviewer , she is fra nk ab ou t interviews
that have given her problems, such as the
o ne with H , B. Andelin , a uth or of the
st ro ngly anti -fem inist book , Fascinating
Woman hood'
"1 thre:v th e book across the room th ree
times w hile reading it ... it made me 50
angry that I found it d ifficu lt to be objertive. 1 finally decided. . to jlls t quote
11er from the book and have her exp lain
her pos ition . W e had to present her !Joint
of v iew , too. I asked her how si1 e ex!J la ined beating your f is ts on your
husband's rllest 'in a cllildlike manner ' to
and if she'd ever done
ge t your way.
t ilat ..
sll e sa id, 'Yes , it works. ' .
alld I as ked, 'For wila t 1' ''
A lth o ug h Hudson doesn ' t consider
herself a femini st per se, she says, "I feel
tha t I have a libera ted viewpoint . . . and
I k now that doesn' t agree wit h 70 % of
our a udience." She has worked for, and
fi na ll y achieved , eq ua l duties for herself
a nd her co -host. "Equ al" in th a t they
s /I are cooking responsibilities , interview ing time , do ing co mmercia l lead-ins a nd
ret urn s: "So it a ll ultim ately ba la nces
ou t," Hudson explai ns.
In wa tching the "Sea ttle Today" show ,
the v iewer is very much aware that Shirley Hudson is not just a prett y prop . As
(me member of the a ud ience sa id , "S he's a
transitional woman, neith er passive or
militant. She shows her int elligence ...
she's not afra id to be bo th a woman and
an indi vidu al. "

MIMMS SPARKS NOON STAFF SEMINAR
.~
'There are no solutions in life, so
there's no sense in going crazy. There are
no solutions and that's the beauty of life,",
faculty member Maxine Mimms tells her
seminar.
It's noontime and the seminar sits and
listens intently. Today's discussion concerns the first part of Zen And The Art
Of Motorcycle Maintenance and sounds
even more promising than last week's
study of Studs Terkel's book: Working .
Mimms continues the seminar, asking '
the students what they think the author is
trying to say, probing, trying to ignite
ideas in her students' minds.
The seminar looks on, pausing to mull
over what they felt the author had tried
to express. There's something different
about the appearance of the seminar,
hO\Alever. These anxious students aren't
the everyday work-shirt and denim students that generally make up the
seminars, these students are staff members
spending their lunch hour in the
"classroom." Working the rest of the day
in Housing, Purchasing or any of several
other departments, they've been attending
the noontime seminars since June 23.
Thoughtfully, one of the students will .
offer an idea they picked up in the reading. Mimms encourages the pupil to say
more and before long the student has
made a statement complete with his o~n

The tirst statement is out, written on
the blackboard, and suddenly ideas are
flying. Mimms writes out the suggestions
on the board, occasionally laughing as
someone calls out one of her pet points .
By the time there's a pause in the brainstorming, the board's nearly filleq.
The staff members have been attending
the classes five days a week since summer
quarter began. So far, they've read Terkel's book; heard guest lecturers discuss
, the readings; and have been keeping personal journals. One day a week, they
meet without a faculty member to help
each other with their wrffing and their
reading.
The seminars started at the suggestion
of Mimms, and have been enthusiastically
received by the staff, resulting in some of
the most spirited seminaring to be found
at the college. Mimms puts it all rather
bluntly in saying "they're a part of the
school, they deserve it."
Seminars planned for the upcoming
weeks should give the staff/students
something to look forward to. Among the
books scheduled for the staff's reading
are: Talley's Corner; the latest. edition of
Einstein's Theory of Relativity; and
Jonathan Livingston Seagull .

Today" show. Her job ent a ils p la nning
programs, contactin g pos s ibl e g ue s t s,
picking up props " .. . in short, just plain
old legwork," she laughed . She describes
her producing sty le as "f lamboyant. "
Dana likes program activities on the show
that involve a great dea l o f movement
a nd action. She said, "There are man y
things -that would be so grea t o n the
show, especiall y music - but space is so
limited. You just can ' ~ ge t a combo or the
Seattle Rep. on ou r set. "
In the future , she is thinking o f producing specials. Ideas she has now include
programs on divorce, the sex ual offender
program at WWSC, a nd " Being Single in
Seattle. "
Dana had this advice for wo m en try ing
to break into televisio n:
"Women with came ra sk ills, ed itin g
skills . . . a woman with those abilities
would be hired just like that . .. they 're
looking all over for women with those
abilities. Wom en seem to be g raduating
from college with writing and production
skills for what they think are go ing to be
the glamous jobs . .. but th ey're not th e
good-paying jobs . "
Dana does not get paid as much as her
male colleagues in the same position "not because of sex discrim in a tion, but
because I started at a lower ra te of pay,"
she explains. She really hasn 't experienced
overt sexism at KING, "maybe beca use
I'm not aware of it. Most of my prob lems
stem from looking younger than I a m .
Most people just don't believe I'm the
assistant producer - but beca use of my
age, not my sex."
MRS. BULLITT
At the other end of the age spectrum is
Mrs. Dorothy Bullitt, owner of KING
Broadcasting . She b o ught the sta tio n in
1947, when KING (then KEVR-FM) was
the ,o nly station in Seattle. From their offices in the Smith Tower, KING carried
music, local news, and progra mming from
all four major networks (NBC, CBS,
ABC and MBS, the Mutual Broadcasting
System). "They were always sending us
programs to be run o n the same da y a t
the same hour ," Mrs. Bullitt recalled , "We
were a lways having to ju gg le th em
around to get 'em a ll in and please the
networks. "

the early fifties, the FCC discovered th a t

ca ll ed fo r a freeze - no new sta ti ons

Mrs. Bu llitt first studi ed television in

Today" show. Her job ent a ils p la nning
programs, contactin g pos s ibl e g ue s t s,
picking up props " .. . in short, just plain
old legwork," she laughed . She describes
her producing sty le as "f lamboyant. "
Dana likes program activities on the show
that involve a great dea l o f movement
a nd action. She said, "There are man y
things -that would be so grea t o n the
show, especiall y music - but space is so
limited. You just can ' ~ ge t a combo or the
Seattle Rep. on ou r set. "
In the future , she is thinking o f producing specials. Ideas she has now include
programs on divorce, the sex ual offender
program at WWSC, a nd " Being Single in
Seattle. "
Dana had this advice for wo m en try ing
to break into televisio n:
"Women with came ra sk ills, ed itin g
skills . . . a woman with those abilities
would be hired just like that . .. they 're
looking all over for women with those
abilities. Wom en seem to be g raduating
from college with writing and production
skills for what they think are go ing to be
the glamous jobs . .. but th ey're not th e
good-paying jobs . "
Dana does not get paid as much as her
male colleagues in the same position "not because of sex discrim in a tion, but
because I started at a lower ra te of pay,"
she explains. She really hasn 't experienced
overt sexism at KING, "maybe beca use
I'm not aware of it. Most of my prob lems
stem from looking younger than I a m .
Most people just don't believe I'm the
assistant producer - but beca use of my
age, not my sex."
MRS. BULLITT
At the other end of the age spectrum is
Mrs. Dorothy Bullitt, owner of KING
Broadcasting . She b o ught the sta tio n in
1947, when KING (then KEVR-FM) was
the ,o nly station in Seattle. From their offices in the Smith Tower, KING carried
music, local news, and progra mming from
all four major networks (NBC, CBS,
ABC and MBS, the Mutual Broadcasting
System). "They were always sending us
programs to be run o n the same da y a t
the same hour ," Mrs. Bullitt recalled , "We
were a lways having to ju gg le th em
around to get 'em a ll in and please the
networks. "

abo ut whether an open dialogue has been
established between the Journal a nd the
Coaliti on, a nd w hether agreement has
been reached. What would happen if a n
agreeme nt wasn't made? What would
happen if the m a jo rity of S&A Board
members were non-white, and in alignment with the Third World toalition, as
is now the case, an d the Third World
Coal itio n made unreasonable demands on
the Jou rn al? The CPJ would have the
cho ice to p rint either w hat they, the Coalition wanted, w hich would compromise
the integrity of the Journal, or suffer a
greatly reduced budge t.
Wha t are the consequences of a reduced
budget of the proportion that was under
consideration? Of the $28,000 budget for
the CPJ actually only $12, 000 is supposed
to come from S&A money and the res t
from advert ising receipts. If you sub trac t
$5,000 from that you have $7,000. This
money is not enough to fund operations
for a paper that looks anything like the
present CPJ. The Journal needs a full
budget all ocated each year in order to
develop itself as a viab le campus
institution. I think the S&A Board could
more effectively carry out their Affirmati ve Ac ti on aims u si n g an incentive
method in which t hey'd promise to give
the Journal an extra $1,000 , for instance,
at the end of the year for the summer paper if in their judgment the Journal had
sat is·fac torily met the needs of Third
World People on campus. Still I'm not
certain that this is an entirely proper thing
to do, either.

reason for it is to discourage racial
discrimination, wh ich I don't believe has
some people from me a nd I hope so m ~
understanding can be achieved soon.

taken place at the Journal in the first
place. T he CPJ is only discriminatory
insofar as it requires that copy meet certain stan da rds of qua li ty a nd gets in before deadlines. It isn' t owned by a grou p
of white, ma le businessmen who practice
racial discrimination , it has a voluntary
student staff and any student can work on
it.
In the past there have been some misundersta ndings between the Journal a n d
certain T hird World people, but to my
knowledge the Journal has never been
publicly accused of discrimination. So
Why then is the Third World Reserve
Fund necessary? In add iti on, if the edi tor
is so comfy wi th it anyway, what's the
need for it?
Instead of this Th ird World Reserve
Fund I'd like to see people from both the
Journa l a nd the Third World Coalition
meet each o ther halfway in order to
understand each other's organizations and
how they can learn to work together. In
my opinion, this way of doing things
would avo id an adversary sort of
relationship and would b e much more
positive . I apo logize for having aliena ted

During the past weeks , members of th'e "Wom.en in Communications " program have
been II1te rVlew lllg women w ith varied jobs w ithin th e communications field , Recently,
members of tlu: !Jrogram travelled to Seatt le 's K I NG-- TV to talk with Shirley Hudson,
who (WltiJ C lIf f Lell z) co -iJ osts til e "Seattle Todav" show: Mrs. Dorothy Bullitt, who
,?oug ht and stl!/ owns KING Broadcasting ; and Dana Dwinell, ass istan t producer of tIle
Seat tle l oday show .

For many women sta rting III communica tions, telev isit, n i ~ more th an jus t a
step beyond newspr int (w here only a
name is sl'pn ) nr radio (w here only a
voi ce is heard ). Tc lev ision is more --- a

Shi rley Hudson , in a recen t interview
with me mbe rs of the "Wo men in Commun ica tion s" program , sa id th ought fu lly,
" So mJny viewers think that we're somehow set apart . . because of a set of
wires and electronic imp ulses..
but a
TV job can be uniqu e . . . we're not neces~ar il y cha in ed to desks ... "
lluLi son is o ne of th e ho sts o n KING's
"Sl'dttll' Tptl.:!y " ~ h(l w . T he program is
woman-oriented a nd contains "I nfl at ion
Fighters" segments a long w ith serious in terviews a nd light chatter.
The program 's set looks like the living
roo m of many homes: plush semi -circular
co uch , plexiglass-and -chro me coffee table
rat ta n s h e lv in g, a ubiquitou s fern:
Hudson slips easil y into the role of hostess
of this "home." She is a ttract ive and gracio us, good- hum o red and relaxed . She
has developed a n interesting philosophy
abo ut the se t a nd her role:
" This is a comfortable sofa .
almost
like a psych iatrist's co uch . If you induce
th e rig ht kind of atmospil ere. .. they
(guests) will forge t , just for a moment ,
that th ey're o n tile air - and then you
cml get into some 'co mp lete ' interviewing. "
Yet, for all her p ro fessionalism as an in terviewer , she is fra nk ab ou t interviews
that have given her problems, such as the
o ne with H , B. Andelin , a uth or of the
st ro ngly anti -fem inist book , Fascinating
Woman hood'
"1 thre:v th e book across the room th ree
times w hile reading it ... it made me 50
angry that I found it d ifficu lt to be objertive. 1 finally decided. . to jlls t quote
11er from the book and have her exp lain
her pos ition . W e had to present her !Joint
of v iew , too. I asked her how si1 e ex!J la ined beating your f is ts on your
husband's rllest 'in a cllildlike manner ' to
and if she'd ever done
ge t your way.
t ilat ..
sll e sa id, 'Yes , it works. ' .
alld I as ked, 'For wila t 1' ''
A lth o ug h Hudson doesn ' t consider
herself a femini st per se, she says, "I feel
tha t I have a libera ted viewpoint . . . and
I k now that doesn' t agree wit h 70 % of
our a udience." She has worked for, and
fi na ll y achieved , eq ua l duties for herself
a nd her co -host. "Equ al" in th a t they
s /I are cooking responsibilities , interview ing time , do ing co mmercia l lead-ins a nd
ret urn s: "So it a ll ultim ately ba la nces
ou t," Hudson explai ns.
In wa tching the "Sea ttle Today" show ,
the v iewer is very much aware that Shirley Hudson is not just a prett y prop . As
(me member of the a ud ience sa id , "S he's a
transitional woman, neith er passive or
militant. She shows her int elligence ...
she's not afra id to be bo th a woman and
an indi vidu al. "
