Blueprints and the smell of plywood
and fresh paint always signaled for me the
fun of discovering a new and unspoiled
building before it becomes overrun with
people.
As such, I was eagerly awaiting my
first chance to get a look at the nearly
completed Phase II of Evergreen's Lab
Building.
The building is complete except for a
few "odds and ends," according to director of facilities Jerry Schillinger. Facilities
moved into new offices in the new 83,600
square foot building before Christmas and
acadenlic programs have been moving in
since Monday. Several faculty have started
holding seminars in the new lab rooms.
Lab facilities in the new building are the
same general-purpose type as found in
Lab Phase I. Each of the four floors features a large, multi-purpose lab room.
One of those rooms will be occupied by
the Self-Paced Learning Lab (SPLU),
which is moving over from Phase l. Two
lounge areas with gt!nuine wood walls can
also be found on each floor ,

milliL'n to const ruct (Jones aml l{oberts
Co.) and is filled with $1 million worth of
furniture and equipment.
COMMUNICATION LAB
Meanwhile, on the other side of campus, construction on the Communications
Lab is progressing smoothly with completion scheduled for January, 1977.
The $5.8 million building, described by
Schillinger as "probably one of the most
sophisticated in the Northwest," will contain facilities for performing arts, photography and multi-media work .
Included in its 80,000 square feet is an
experimental theatre, a 225-seat recital
hall, rehearsal rooms for choir, orchestra,
band, dance and theatre, a cinema / photography area, costume shop, shop area,
design lab, seminar rooms and offices.
Equipment worth $750,000 will complete
the building.
GAY NIGHT IN SEAlTLE
The Gay Resource Center will host a
"Gay Night" in Seattle this evening, Jan .
8, featuring reports from national Gay
conferences and panel discussions on the
directions of the Gay movement. Activities will also include an escorted tour of
" Gay Night Life in Seattle, " Escorts are
said to be " knowledgeable about the Seattle Gay Scene,
permitting those under
21 to ta ke part. "
Participants in the Gay Night are asked
to meet at th e Gay Reso urce Center at
6:30 p.m. Reservations an: preferred and
a two·dollar donation is req uested. For

Greetings to the Evergreen community and welcome
to 1976, Did you have a pleasant holiday respite from
your academic endeavors7 I hope so.
At least part of my holiday experience falls into the
category of bizarre, Christmas Day I found myself I think I was temporarily displaced - sitting in a
Reno hotel casino lounge quaffing beers and talking to
linda Ronstadt's father. (How's that for name
dropping?) We were both stranded in Reno, trying to
make the most of a bad situation, We forgot it was
Christmas until the singer on stage - a pudgy Miss
Texas circa 1968 - broke into an uninspired version
of "Silent Night," What a strange Christmas scene.
But what can you do when your horse breaks down
in the Nevada desert7
New Year's Eve was less eventful. I stayed home
and celebrated among friends. On those waves of nostalgia - what happened to 1975, what happened to
the 1970's7 I made a New Year's resolution not to
raise my voice in anger. Good luck.
BICENTENNIAL
As you're all so painfully aware by now, our Bicentennial birthday is upon us. It's the only birthday
party I know of that lasts an entire year. I hope
there's enough cake and party hats to go around.
Seriously though, we should put the Bicentennial
observance in proper perspective. Two hundred years
is a brief period of time in the history of a country, or
a culture, The Chinese, the Mayans, the Roman Em pire. - what's 200 years in their cultural story?
Maybe the first chapter,
And as a Washingtonian. I find it difficult to get
too excited about the Bicentennial celebration, After
all. Tumwater - the first settlement on Puget Sound
- was a one-family homestead in 1845. And
Washington Territory became the 42nd state as late as
1889. Let the 13 original Colonies celebrate all year
long if they so desire . In Washington, we have
another 113 years to wait for our Bicentennial.
One other cautionary note. The bicentennial year
runs the risk of becoming a catchall, a whipping post ,
a commercial shuck. Witness the recent statement by
a Seattle p~lice lieutenant; i,e., we can expect an upsurge in terrorist bombings in the Seattle area during
the bicentennial year. Isn't that a bit speculative?
How much media advertising correlating 20th century products to the Bicentennial spirit can the public
stomach. I'm already getting tired of the Quaker's
Oats box singing: "Happy birthday America, happy
birthday 'to you ."
Does the public appreciate Bicentennial menus (the
Valley Forge burger, the Betsy Ross cheese omelette)
or Bicentennial slogan contests. Does the male citizenry show consumer preference for red, white and
blue Bicentennial contraceptives (available in at least
one drive-in movie theater men's room down South
Carolina way)7 Commercial opportunism and shallow
exuberance turns the Bicentennial birthday party into
an absurdist play.
PIE-IN-THE-EYE
A dreary, overcast day near th~ end of fall quarter .. . An unsuspecting Evergreen administrator is
awakened from his mesmerizing paperwork by a pie wielding hit man. Splat goes the whipped cream.
While o ur maligned administrator wipes the smuck uf'

In 1975, pie throwing repl aced streaking as the off·
beat fad of the year. Organizations emerge across the
country, offering to " tak!' out contracts" for any revenge seeker who can afford to pay. In Los Angeles .
it's Pie Face International at $35 a throw. In St. Pet·
ersburg, F1a , there's Pie Kill. Ltd, at $50 to $300 per
job , But the pie throwing professionals agree the true
source of inspiration is Rex Weiner, 24 , the founder 01
the Manhattan based Pie-Kill Unlimited ,
For $50, the Manhattan office sends out franc hi se
kits which include the manifesto Mr. Weiner wrote to
keep pie throwing in the proper perspective, It goes
something like this:
Stamp out pomposity
Uphold virtues of surprise, randomness , and
chaos
Wreak lighthearted havoc wherever and when·
ever possible
Get away with it
Oh by the way, Rex recommends a tasty selection
of pies - chocolate cream, banana cream, lemon
cream, and lemon meringue (hardest to remove) ,
Pie throwing is already on the decline . (Trends
always take a while to reach the Pacific Northwest),
So cheer up Mr. Administrator, You're probably safe
from another attack.

Evergreen p'hotographer Kathleen
Meighan, who now has a show in the
Library Gallery, says her subjects are
"collaborators . . .I don ' t want to rip
people off for a good shot."
H.er show presents people in two
genres - in portrait and as consumers.
. The older of the two sets of photos, both
. culled over a period of years, are the
portraits. Kathleen says of this group:
"These were taken before I had a good
knowledge of the technical side of
photography. I went by what I saw in
other photos - as a result the portraits
look a lot like other people's photos. , .
which in turn, perhaps make them a little
easier to understand in terms of
comparing with similar shots. On the
other hand, I wasn't trying to do the same
thing better or with more - pizazz than
anyone else.
"However, for the consumer photos, I
became a sort of social anthropologist. I
wanted to show something of the
economic cycle" the many people in the
many jobs crea ting products for which a
need had to be created. The resultant
clutter. . . think about the number of pairs

Mall . . .no one needs that many pairs of
shoes, but every year there are new
co lors, new styles ... and the racks and
racks of clothes.
" What is it that conditions us to
consume? You get at least 800 commercial
messages a day. On a drive between here
and Lacey you receive hundreds .
" The kind of thing I' m trying to
pinpoint is what happened to New York .
I'm trying to create an awareness of a
problem that I think is going to crumble
under its own weight.

H.er show presents people in two

photography. I went by what I saw in
other photos - as a result the portraits
look a lot like other people's photos. , .
which in turn, perhaps make them a little
easier to understand in terms of

anyone else.

A southbound trucker came on the air,
" That's a tell-follr here. You 've got a
clear sho t fro III here all the way north to

gol'd buddy. We shore do 'preciate the'

"Ah , we' re northbound to, ah , Charlotte ."
' Y 'all 'd best watch yerselves up thar.

Wall to Wall Smokey Bear. " A chorus of
"ten-fours" rang out as everyone within
range responded . Something bad was '
coming down up there if the word was
being passed all the way down into
Georgia.
As it turned out, the North Carolina '
State Police were coming down hard o n
anything going 56 miles-per-hour and
faster. If you were a resident of their fair
sta te, you'd be lucky to get away with a
citation. Everybody else got arrested, in cluding more than a few luckless truckers,
and thai raised th e hair on the back of
many burly truckers' necks. Ohio is bad
enough, S0 bad that unless there is a load
to go in or come ou t of the Buckeye Stat e,
no trucks are bei ng routed through it. But
no matter the aggravation of such strict
l'nlorcement, is th ere no way 10 fight it?
Certainly not with the methods like roadblocks the truckers used to express their
anger over the ri sing fuel costs in late
1973, ea rlv 1974.
Taking' a leaf o ut of the California
Highway Patrol 's book of tricks , the a ir

thei r views on the situation were running
side by- sidt: o n th e Interstate at a leisurely
45 miles-per-hour .. , and th ere wasn ' t a
damn thin g Smokey could do but sit and
fume. Ju st a s the CHP once escorted a
line of traffic from Los Angele~ III the
Nevado border runn ing two-abreast at
55, North Carolina traffic experienced the
truckin g rend ition of passive enforcement.
While this action most assuredly caused a
great deal of congestion and discomfort to
many travelers, it got the message across.
, the truckers have organized on the
highways through their CB units, and
th ey aren't afraid to flex their muscle
when they feel the net'd arises.
Of course, most states aren' t applying
th e same pressure as North Carolina. The
usual tactics of enforcing the speed limit,
cruising, radar , and simple roadside observa tion prevail. And in return there are
some very effective counter-tactic's to reduce the odds on getting nailed. "Breaker

mitting trucker, and the responding voice
would shock those folks who assume that
trucking is still an all-male vocation.) A
::Iistinctly feminine voice responded ,
"Sugar Babe here , go ahead Road Hog,"
"Yea, Sugar Babe, what's yer ten-twenty
(radio code asking for position) 7" "J'm
coming up on (mile) marker 6 , what's
your twenty? " "Just crossed the state line
into Tennessee, I'll sit up here at the front
door if you'll watch the back ." " Tllat's a
ten-four Road Hog, Sugar Babe at tile
'back door , out on the side."
"B reaker one-nine to Road Hog .. ,"
"Go ahead breaker, " "This is The Lightfoot. We're sittin' in the rocking chair at
marker 2 with the Zig-Zag Man right behind us." "Ten-four Lightfoot. les ' keep
yer ears on and we'll keep ya posted,"
"Ten-four Road Hog. Did you get a copy
on that Sugar Babe? " "Ten-four Lightfoot , I'll be watching your backside. "Thus
formed a convoy, spread out over seven
miles of Interstate highway , consisting of
four vehicles with 2-way radios, all run-'
nin g at speeds far in excess of the nation wide limit.
About two hours later, Road Hog came
back over the air, " Breaker, Breaker,
Smokey's off the side at marker 276 on
the westbollnd side." Three voices simultaneously acknowledged the information ,
and we cruised around a long bend approaching Smokey'S reported position. He
had just pulled back onto "t he boulevard"
when we spotted him, "Breaker one -nine ,
. Smokey is on the move westbound at
marker 275," Again three voices acknowledged the information.
A convoy of trucks came barreling over
a rise headed east at an obviously im moral pace. Smokey slowed and pulled
off at the next exit. " Breaker one-nine,
Smokey just pulled off the boulevard at
the Eden Road exit and look s like he'll be
turning around and heading east." Before
anyone in either convoy could respond, a
sharp transmission boomed out, "Well ,
now it seems like everyone knows what
/'m gmma do, " MY GOD! Smokey Bear
has ears too! "Well , you can run. , ." "I
know, but I can't hide , You folks have a
good trip, and rem ember, I'll be looking
for you the next time you come through
tllese parts." "That's a big ten-four, Mr.
Bear. Ah, you be sure to take good care
of yourself 'till then," In the end, each
side realizes that the other is simply doing
what has to be done, There is no enemy,
ju st a friendly adversary relationship
founded in mutual respect between the
truckers and Smokey Bear.
Another instance of communication between traveler and police must be recorded

from dialogue and collective action among community members, As a community, we need

other, fewer personal relation ships are going to survive crisis,
and more and more people will
be drawn into our legal system,
and usually punished for " not
making it."

two-way is used just so truckers can disregard the law . There had been no Smokey sightings the entire length of Arkansas. ,
At the 52-mile marker westbound on 1-40
somebody had fallen asleep at the wheel
of their four-wheeler in the ctlld, predawn hours and rolled it up in a ball,
coming to rest down an embankment. By
simply switching to the emergency channel, channel 9, a ,mobile CB operator was
able to summon an ambulance and police
to the lonely stretch which ' was not patrolled at night, giving the victims a much
better chance at surviving in an ambulance and hospital rather than unconscious, trapped in a gasoline-soaked wad
of crushed steel, hidden in shadow off the
side of the roadway.
Naturally this service is secondary to
the needs and desires which have caused
the market for Citizen's Band radio units
to boom. Just by listening, we were able
to cruise through a radar trap in darkness
outside of Muskogee, Okla., and again in
Amarillo, Tex., and in Bakersfield, Calif.,
amazingly, pick up on the best meal to be
found along the Interstate, normally a
vast gastronomic desert. The added security of having such far-ranging vision
makes long distance cruising less of a parano id experience simp ly because everyone
else on the air is looking for the same
thing a s you are , and such a n all ied cooperation yield s an amazing quantity of
intelligen ce. Ergo , your odds on getting
through clean are great ly en hanced,
But runnin g with a two-way will never
guaran tee anything . We had the opportunity to eavesdrop on a very amateurish
friend as he tried to tune into the Smokey
watch while crossi ng the Arizona desert at
night. "Ah, breaker two-one ... " Silence.
"Breaker, ah, two-o ne, . , urn, can anybody tell me , uh , what the Smokey situa tion is heading east?" The response was
stately and prompt. "Yes, This is the Bear.
I'm right behind you and I've got you at a
big seven-two miles-per-hour, so why
don't you just pull that Huffaker Racing
I8-wheeler off to the side and we'll talk
about it."

ODDS AND ENDS
Driving to school Tuesday
morning, I heard the song "Yellow Submarine" by the Beatles.
It touched off a memory of a
very delightful animated movie
based on the song. Then later in
the afternoon I learned "Yellow
Submarine" (the movie version)
was being featured in the Shelton
Film Series. Thursday, Jan. 8 at
8 p.m. in the Shelton High
School auditorium. Admission is
$1.50. If you've never seen the
animated Beatles at their psychedelic best give it a go. I grew up
to Beatie music (there's plenty in
the movie) and I still think they
were the greatest .

the State Theater, "Dog Days" is
a slang phrase for the hot,

was reckoned anciently by the

hotter areas of the country the
dog days are looked upon as a

As it turned out, the North Carolina '
State Police were coming down hard o n
anything going 56 miles-per-hour and
faster. If you were a resident of their fair
sta te, you'd be lucky to get away with a
citation. Everybody else got arrested, in cluding more than a few luckless truckers,
and thai raised th e hair on the back of
many burly truckers' necks. Ohio is bad
enough, S0 bad that unless there is a load
to go in or come ou t of the Buckeye Stat e,
no trucks are bei ng routed through it. But
no matter the aggravation of such strict

Certainly not with the methods like roadblocks the truckers used to express their
anger over the ri sing fuel costs in late

While this action most assuredly caused a
great deal of congestion and discomfort to
many travelers, it got the message across.
, the truckers have organized on the
highways through their CB units, and
th ey aren't afraid to flex their muscle
when they feel the net'd arises.
Of course, most states aren' t applying
th e same pressure as North Carolina. The
usual tactics of enforcing the speed limit,
cruising, radar , and simple roadside observa tion prevail. And in return there are
some very effective counter-tactic's to reduce the odds on getting nailed. "Breaker

miles of Interstate highway , consisting of
four vehicles with 2-way radios, all run-'

About two hours later, Road Hog came
back over the air, " Breaker, Breaker,
Smokey's off the side at marker 276 on
the westbollnd side." Three voices simultaneously acknowledged the information ,
and we cruised around a long bend approaching Smokey'S reported position. He
had just pulled back onto "t he boulevard"
when we spotted him, "Breaker one -nine ,
. Smokey is on the move westbound at
marker 275," Again three voices acknowledged the information.
A convoy of trucks came barreling over
a rise headed east at an obviously im moral pace. Smokey slowed and pulled
off at the next exit. " Breaker one-nine,
Smokey just pulled off the boulevard at
the Eden Road exit and look s like he'll be
turning around and heading east." Before
anyone in either convoy could respond, a
sharp transmission boomed out, "Well ,

At the 52-mile marker westbound on 1-40
somebody had fallen asleep at the wheel
of their four-wheeler in the ctlld, predawn hours and rolled it up in a ball,
coming to rest down an embankment. By
simply switching to the emergency channel, channel 9, a ,mobile CB operator was
able to summon an ambulance and police
to the lonely stretch which ' was not patrolled at night, giving the victims a much
better chance at surviving in an ambulance and hospital rather than unconscious, trapped in a gasoline-soaked wad
of crushed steel, hidden in shadow off the
side of the roadway.
Naturally this service is secondary to
the needs and desires which have caused

morning, I heard the song "Yellow Submarine" by the Beatles.
It touched off a memory of a
very delightful animated movie
based on the song. Then later in
the afternoon I learned "Yellow

was being featured in the Shelton
Film Series. Thursday, Jan. 8 at
8 p.m. in the Shelton High
School auditorium. Admission is

Blueprints and the smell of plywood
and fresh paint always signaled for me the
fun of discovering a new and unspoiled
building before it becomes overrun with
people.
As such, I was eagerly awaiting my
first chance to get a look at the nearly
completed Phase II of Evergreen's Lab
Building.
The building is complete except for a
few "odds and ends," according to director of facilities Jerry Schillinger. Facilities
moved into new offices in the new 83,600
square foot building before Christmas and
acadenlic programs have been moving in
since Monday. Several faculty have started
holding seminars in the new lab rooms.
Lab facilities in the new building are the
same general-purpose type as found in
Lab Phase I. Each of the four floors features a large, multi-purpose lab room.
One of those rooms will be occupied by
the Self-Paced Learning Lab (SPLU),
which is moving over from Phase l. Two
lounge areas with gt!nuine wood walls can
also be found on each floor ,

furniture and equipment.
COMMUNICATION LAB
Meanwhile, on the other side of campus, construction on the Communications
Lab is progressing smoothly with completion scheduled for January, 1977.
The $5.8 million building, described by
Schillinger as "probably one of the most
sophisticated in the Northwest," will contain facilities for performing arts, photography and multi-media work .
Included in its 80,000 square feet is an
experimental theatre, a 225-seat recital
hall, rehearsal rooms for choir, orchestra,
band, dance and theatre, a cinema / photography area, costume shop, shop area,
design lab, seminar rooms and offices.
Equipment worth $750,000 will complete
the building.
GAY NIGHT IN SEAlTLE
The Gay Resource Center will host a
"Gay Night" in Seattle this evening, Jan .
8, featuring reports from national Gay
conferences and panel discussions on the
directions of the Gay movement. Activities will also include an escorted tour of
" Gay Night Life in Seattle, " Escorts are
said to be " knowledgeable about the Seattle Gay Scene,

Greetings to the Evergreen community and welcome
to 1976, Did you have a pleasant holiday respite from
your academic endeavors7 I hope so.
At least part of my holiday experience falls into the
category of bizarre, Christmas Day I found myself I think I was temporarily displaced - sitting in a
Reno hotel casino lounge quaffing beers and talking to
linda Ronstadt's father. (How's that for name
dropping?) We were both stranded in Reno, trying to
make the most of a bad situation, We forgot it was
Christmas until the singer on stage - a pudgy Miss
Texas circa 1968 - broke into an uninspired version
of "Silent Night," What a strange Christmas scene.
But what can you do when your horse breaks down
in the Nevada desert7
New Year's Eve was less eventful. I stayed home
and celebrated among friends. On those waves of nostalgia - what happened to 1975, what happened to
the 1970's7 I made a New Year's resolution not to
raise my voice in anger. Good luck.
BICENTENNIAL
As you're all so painfully aware by now, our Bicentennial birthday is upon us. It's the only birthday
party I know of that lasts an entire year. I hope
there's enough cake and party hats to go around.
Seriously though, we should put the Bicentennial
observance in proper perspective. Two hundred years
is a brief period of time in the history of a country, or
a culture, The Chinese, the Mayans, the Roman Em pire. - what's 200 years in their cultural story?
Maybe the first chapter,
And as a Washingtonian. I find it difficult to get
too excited about the Bicentennial celebration, After
all. Tumwater - the first settlement on Puget Sound
- was a one-family homestead in 1845. And
Washington Territory became the 42nd state as late as
1889. Let the 13 original Colonies celebrate all year
long if they so desire . In Washington, we have
another 113 years to wait for our Bicentennial.
One other cautionary note. The bicentennial year
runs the risk of becoming a catchall, a whipping post ,
a commercial shuck. Witness the recent statement by
a Seattle p~lice lieutenant; i,e., we can expect an upsurge in terrorist bombings in the Seattle area during
the bicentennial year. Isn't that a bit speculative?
How much media advertising correlating 20th century products to the Bicentennial spirit can the public
stomach. I'm already getting tired of the Quaker's
Oats box singing: "Happy birthday America, happy
birthday 'to you ."
Does the public appreciate Bicentennial menus (the
Valley Forge burger, the Betsy Ross cheese omelette)
or Bicentennial slogan contests. Does the male citizenry show consumer preference for red, white and
blue Bicentennial contraceptives (available in at least
one drive-in movie theater men's room down South
Carolina way)7 Commercial opportunism and shallow
exuberance turns the Bicentennial birthday party into
an absurdist play.
PIE-IN-THE-EYE
A dreary, overcast day near th~ end of fall quarter .. . An unsuspecting Evergreen administrator is
awakened from his mesmerizing paperwork by a pie wielding hit man. Splat goes the whipped cream.
While o ur maligned administrator wipes the smuck uf'
his face . the hit man does escape,
In 1975, pie throwing repl aced streaking as the off·
beat fad of the year. Organizations emerge across the
country, offering to " tak!' out contracts" for any revenge seeker who can afford to pay. In Los Angeles .
it's Pie Face International at $35 a throw. In St. Pet·
ersburg, F1a , there's Pie Kill. Ltd, at $50 to $300 per
job , But the pie throwing professionals agree the true
source of inspiration is Rex Weiner, 24 , the founder 01
the Manhattan based Pie-Kill Unlimited ,
For $50, the Manhattan office sends out franc hi se
kits which include the manifesto Mr. Weiner wrote to
keep pie throwing in the proper perspective, It goes
something like this:
Stamp out pomposity
Uphold virtues of surprise, randomness , and
chaos
Wreak lighthearted havoc wherever and when·
ever possible
Get away with it
Oh by the way, Rex recommends a tasty selection
of pies - chocolate cream, banana cream, lemon
cream, and lemon meringue (hardest to remove) ,
Pie throwing is already on the decline . (Trends
always take a while to reach the Pacific Northwest),
So cheer up Mr. Administrator, You're probably safe
from another attack.
Adios
