process. "Delega tes to the Cou nty Convention are selected a nd

During a lengthy and busy meeting Feb .
26, the Evergreen Board of Trustees
established a citizens advisory committee,
gave President McCann the go ahead to
hire a dean for the new access center and
raised summer quarter tuition.
The citizen's advisory committee is a
lO-member group whose task will be to
examine Evergreen and attempt to
measure its impact on the state of
Washington. One of the prime objectives
of the group will be to ga ther statewide
views on Evergreen as it passes the 5 -year
mark in operations and formu la te this
information into a report to be presented
to the Board.
In other ac!ion during the Thursday
meeting, t he BOT approved the first
phase of the realignment necessary to
create the new Student Access Center,
a llow in g President McCann to find and
hire a dean for the gmup. Because of the
tight bud ge t situation, McCann has
stipulated that the access center dean will
be chosen from within Evergreen and that
there will be "no net additions to the
administration ." The new dean will not
rotate in a nd ou t of the faculty as present
deans do but, according to McCann, "will
be as permanent as anything else is
permanent a round here."

to be eking ou t a narrow victory not only
in Massachusetts (23 % of the Democratic
vote), but Thurston County as well,
where his 44% vote was only 5% ahead
of the "uncom mitted" delegates. The
county -wide sampling showed Rep.
Morris "Mo" Udall coming in a distant
second with 16% of the precinct vote.
Other candidates took up the remaining
1%.

In the Democratic ca ucus for th e
Broadway precinct (which includes ASH
and the mods) "Mo" Uda ll carried the
majority nomination . Close to 40 registered voters turned out for the caucus, a
significant in crease over the 6 to 10
average of county precincts four years
ago, About half of those 40 voters were
members of the Evergreen commun ity,

Meanwhile, with half the Republican
precincts reporting, Ford delegates were
ou trunnin g Reagan supporters by a 2 to 1
margain. However, county cha irperson
Nanci Eldridge said that that lead could
drop as more precincts k now n to favor
Reagan begin to report in , Despite th at
potential drop, concensu5 at Republican
headquarters has Ford maint a ining his
majority edge .

Public Interest Research at Evergreen

(Last of a series.) Last week some of the
problems of the first Nader-inspired
PIRGs were explored, along with some of
the projects that PIRGs in other states
have implemented,

Why a Public Interest Research Group
(PIRG) at Evergreen?
The educational mode here would easily accommodate the formation and implementation of a WashPlRG group. The
faculty and students are hopefully still interdisciplinary, thus avoiding a major
problem on other campuses - how to
award credit for PIRG work? Is it economics? Political science? Sociology? At
' Evergreen it would be possible to create a
continuing group contract in public interest research without having to fit into the
structure of a particular department.
But the biggest problem here, as at
other schools, would not be awarding
credit, but arousing interest and starting a
petition drive for a PIRG . How many
people would it take to start? Only 15
's tudents organized the PIRG movement

in Minnesota until widespread support
was gained . Evergreen had twenty times
that many people concerned about curriculum planning . If 400 people are concerned about the nature of their schooll ing, then perhaps half that many might
wonder what they could do about the
state of their state.

'ONLY 15 STUDENTS .
ORGANIZED THE PIRG
MOVEMENT IN
,
MINNESOTA.
I.

The cost for establishing a PlRG need
not be prohibitive. The total cost in Oregon was $7,000 over a six- month period
involving 14 schools and 75,000 students .
Minnesota's campaign cost less than
$5,000 and involved 17 schools and al most 100,00 students. The cost per school

could be less than $500.
There are six steps to se tting up a PIRG.
A core group is formed, the plan is presented to students, the PIRG petition is
drafted, the petition drive is started, and
finally , after more than 50 % of the students agree to support a PIRG , then negotiations are started for administrative
approval.
By signing a PlRG petition, students
agree to pay $2 - $3 in addition to their
regular tuition payment. This money
would be used to form th e financial base
for the group. If, at any time, more than
50 % of the students decided that PIRG
was no longer desirable, tlien the group
would be disbanded and students would
receive a refund.
Although obtaining student signatures
would be the most tedious task, the biggest one would be convincing the administration of the college to approve a PIRG
measure (see article, Journal, 2126, p. 1).
And, if a bill before the Washington state
legislature doesn't pass, then the colleg'"

could continue to act as a collection
agency for activities such as a bookstore
or PIRG (Ibid.).
If Evergreen were to implement and ap prove a PlRG measure, we would be part
of a state-w ide PIRG group . Each campus
group would have a student-elected Board
of Control which in turn would se nd rep resentatives to a state Board . The size of
the campus would determine the number
of representatives.
The state Board would ideally be lo cated in the state ca pital to allow easier
access to documents, hearings a nd legislators.
Why WashPlRG at Evergreen? Maybe
because you just had your rent raised fo r
no reason. Maybe because you don 't want
to pay 15 cents for directory assistance.
Maybe because a store sell s hamburger
that has been frozen as fresh . Or maybe
because you'd rather do something about
some of those consumer problems you've
been having, rather than deal with the
capitalist theory behind them in seminar.

ROOM & BOARD
To the Edito r :
I submit this lette r for publica ti o n in response to an article submitted by one o f th e s tudent firefighters.
As a me mber of the fire depa rtm ent and with referance to
the a rticle statin g st udent firefighters a re pa id "X dollar a nd
cents per hour" I wo uld like to
ex pand and make the following
distinction . Student s are not paid
an hourly wage as implied but as
indica ted in the contract between
the college and the fire district ,
st uden ts se rving as firefighters
fo r the fire dist rict are provided
wi th room(s) and mea ls in lieu of
monetary compensat io n .

Dogs and th e ir owne r s h ave been a perennial problem at Everg re e n . T he dogs a re tied up or allow e d to run free . T h ey run in
packs a nd mess up the lawn s . They c hase and sometimes kill
sq uirr e ls and deer o n ca mpu s. Finally a poli cy is mad e - dogs
fo und unattended on ca mpu s are pac ked away into kennel s.
Not cool' There are people who won 't think that your nor m a ll y well - behaved pup is so c h arming when he plants paw
pnnts o n the cle a n clo the s that were going to be worn to an inte.rn shipr int e ~view . They're not thrilled when Fang eats their
fmbee. rhey re not overJoyed when they plant their Earth S hoes
in that pile of biodegradab le waste .
Can Evergreen scro unge up money to build good kennels with
a run and a sh eltered area? Three o r four student work positions
co uld also be funded . The se students would take care of the .kenn e ls, walk the dogs in the fields and roads behind the school, and
p e rhaps learn a little about animal hu s bandry.
People co uld then bring their dogs on campus if they needed
to, and bring them to clean keryr(els where they knew th a t someon e wo uld take care of them. Security emp loyees wouldn't have
to pla y d ogc atche r and dog-owners wouldn't have to worry about
th ei r an im a ls being so m ew here th ey shouldn't be, or have to
leave them at hom e to ea t th e furniture.
Poss ibl e?

by Rick Strassner
A major break through in the s uperta nker controversy on Puget Sound appea red the middle of February, with a
proposa l by the Northern T ier Pipeline
Com pa ny of Billings, Mont. to build a
superpo rt complex in the Port Angeles
a rea. The 1,500 mile crude oil line would
supply oil to the Midwest , where refineries are facing elimination of Canadian
supplies arou nd 1980.
D . M ichael Curran, who heads th e conso rtium of pipeline and railroad interests,
ann ou nced that Northern Tier will begin
applyi ng for co nstruction permits immediately.
If Washington state's four major refineries: ARCO, Mobil, Shell and Texaco ,
a re recep tive to the Port Angeles pipeline
sc heme, cr ud e o il tanker traffic would be
elimi nated from in ner Puget Sound.
Presen tl y, there are fo ur ports in inner
Puget Sound receiving tankers carrying
crude oi l ; two at Anacortes, o ne at Fern da le, a nd one at C herry Point, north o f
Bellingham. The C herry Point terminal '
was favo red for the cross-country line but
due to citizenry opposition, Nor thern Tier
decided to go wit h the Port A ngeles si te.
To supply the 800,000 barrel-a- day
pipelin e would mean a treme ndous in crease in tanker traffic to the superport
complex. One hundred twenty thousandton ships would arrive daily as compared
to the present average of one and onehalf visits a month of shi ps that size.
The pipeline proposal co ul d be delayed
d ue to a su it filed by the ARCO company
testing the new T ug Escort Law. This law
states that no tanker larger than 125,000
dead weight tons can go through Rosario
Stra its into inner Puget Sound . It a lso
sta tes that any tanker carrying 50,000
dead weight tons or more must use tugboats. T his law is strongly supported by
Governor Evans and environmentalists to
reduce spill risks . The su it is schedul ed for
court in late May,
The oil industry people say that the
chance of a major oil spill is very small
and that these precautions are unnecessary . The oilmen say if one did occur, the
indu stry -funded C lean Sound Cooperative

Infl ata ble bo o ms wou ld be floated
around the spill area to confine the oil.
Tug - I ik e vessels called "slick - lickers"
equipped with conveyo r belts would start
lappin g u p the oil.
A hose-a nd-pump sys tem would be
placed aboard the crippled tanke r to remove its cargo before more o il cou ld s pill.
One o ilman stated "we'd lose a few
birds, yes, but we'd clean every beachhead and poli sh every rock before · we
were through ."
On the o ther ha nd environmentalists
say cha nces of a major oil spill increase
every day as tanke r traffic increases . The
more oil the tankers a re a llowed to carry ,
the less effective the cleanup procedures
wou ld be in the event of a spill.
As soon as the oi l bega n oozing from
the tanker's hull , stro ng currents wou ld
start distributing it around the sou nd .
So me o il would travel north to the British
Columbia coastline; some would head for
e ncl ose d est uari es along th e n ort h e rn
Washington coast line; some would thread
its way into inner Puget Sound , ending up
on such beaches as Golden Gardens and
Alki Point.
High winds a nd rough" wa ters cou ld
thwart cleanup efforts by distributing the
oi l more quickly and rendering cleanup
equipment useless .
Unrecovered oil would harm marine
plant a nd animal life for years to come.
O il deposited on beaches would turn into
a pudding-like mess which would event ua lly harden if left untreated.
Ano ther area of disagreement is whether
the larger supertankers pose greater oil
spill haza rds than smaller tankers. Oil
compa nies contend larger ships mea n fewer . vessel trjps, redu cing the chances of a
collision or accident. The use of larger
vessels also means the more economical
the load for the oil company .
Env ironmentalists assert that the bigger
the ship, the worse the sp ill. The most disastrous spills in history - the Torrey

algae, a nd sa lt marshes ."
With the building of this pipeline, crude
o il supertank ers would be eliminated from
inner Puget So und . The only tankers on
inner Puge t Sound would be sma ller,
20,000 dead -weight- ton tankers carrying
refined oil .
Govern or Evans' w ish of a Single Point
Discharge System out of the Port Angeles
area would be granted. Howeve r, it could
make Port Angeles o ne of the nation's
chief deepwate r o il superpor ts, ha ndling
amounts of oil equa l to that of Los Angeles, Houston, and Newark . Some people
find the prospect frightening for a little
port w hich up till now has handled rel ative droplets of o il.

ti on seco nd on ly to teaching.
The lim ita tio ns of time a nd mo bilit y a re increasingly rea l, howeve r, a nd we are here in thi s offi ce t o fac il itate t he adv isin g
process. not as a substitute for
the kind of advisin g tha t o nl y

ROOM & BOARD
To the Edito r :
I submit this lette r for publica ti o n in response to an article submitted by one o f th e s tudent firefighters.
As a me mber of the fire depa rtm ent and with referance to
the a rticle statin g st udent firefighters a re pa id "X dollar a nd
cents per hour" I wo uld like to
ex pand and make the following
distinction . Student s are not paid
an hourly wage as implied but as
indica ted in the contract between
the college and the fire district ,
st uden ts se rving as firefighters
fo r the fire dist rict are provided
wi th room(s) and mea ls in lieu of
monetary compensat io n .

Dogs and th e ir owne r s h ave been a perennial problem at Everg re e n . T he dogs a re tied up or allow e d to run free . T h ey run in
packs a nd mess up the lawn s . They c hase and sometimes kill
sq uirr e ls and deer o n ca mpu s. Finally a poli cy is mad e - dogs
fo und unattended on ca mpu s are pac ked away into kennel s.
Not cool' There are people who won 't think that your nor m a ll y well - behaved pup is so c h arming when he plants paw
pnnts o n the cle a n clo the s that were going to be worn to an inte.rn shipr int e ~view . They're not thrilled when Fang eats their
fmbee. rhey re not overJoyed when they plant their Earth S hoes
in that pile of biodegradab le waste .
Can Evergreen scro unge up money to build good kennels with
a run and a sh eltered area? Three o r four student work positions
co uld also be funded . The se students would take care of the .kenn e ls, walk the dogs in the fields and roads behind the school, and
p e rhaps learn a little about animal hu s bandry.
People co uld then bring their dogs on campus if they needed
to, and bring them to clean keryr(els where they knew th a t someon e wo uld take care of them. Security emp loyees wouldn't have
to pla y d ogc atche r and dog-owners wouldn't have to worry about
th ei r an im a ls being so m ew here th ey shouldn't be, or have to
leave them at hom e to ea t th e furniture.
Poss ibl e?

by Rick Strassner
A major break through in the s uperta nker controversy on Puget Sound appea red the middle of February, with a
proposa l by the Northern T ier Pipeline
Com pa ny of Billings, Mont. to build a
superpo rt complex in the Port Angeles
a rea. The 1,500 mile crude oil line would
supply oil to the Midwest , where refineries are facing elimination of Canadian
supplies arou nd 1980.
D . M ichael Curran, who heads th e conso rtium of pipeline and railroad interests,
ann ou nced that Northern Tier will begin
applyi ng for co nstruction permits immediately.
If Washington state's four major refineries: ARCO, Mobil, Shell and Texaco ,
a re recep tive to the Port Angeles pipeline
sc heme, cr ud e o il tanker traffic would be
elimi nated from in ner Puget Sound.
Presen tl y, there are fo ur ports in inner
Puget Sound receiving tankers carrying
crude oi l ; two at Anacortes, o ne at Fern da le, a nd one at C herry Point, north o f
Bellingham. The C herry Point terminal '
was favo red for the cross-country line but
due to citizenry opposition, Nor thern Tier
decided to go wit h the Port A ngeles si te.
To supply the 800,000 barrel-a- day
pipelin e would mean a treme ndous in crease in tanker traffic to the superport
complex. One hundred twenty thousandton ships would arrive daily as compared
to the present average of one and onehalf visits a month of shi ps that size.
The pipeline proposal co ul d be delayed
d ue to a su it filed by the ARCO company
testing the new T ug Escort Law. This law
states that no tanker larger than 125,000
dead weight tons can go through Rosario
Stra its into inner Puget Sound . It a lso
sta tes that any tanker carrying 50,000
dead weight tons or more must use tugboats. T his law is strongly supported by
Governor Evans and environmentalists to
reduce spill risks . The su it is schedul ed for
court in late May,
The oil industry people say that the
chance of a major oil spill is very small
and that these precautions are unnecessary . The oilmen say if one did occur, the
indu stry -funded C lean Sound Cooperative

Infl ata ble bo o ms wou ld be floated
around the spill area to confine the oil.
Tug - I ik e vessels called "slick - lickers"
equipped with conveyo r belts would start
lappin g u p the oil.
A hose-a nd-pump sys tem would be
placed aboard the crippled tanke r to remove its cargo before more o il cou ld s pill.
One o ilman stated "we'd lose a few
birds, yes, but we'd clean every beachhead and poli sh every rock before · we
were through ."
On the o ther ha nd environmentalists
say cha nces of a major oil spill increase
every day as tanke r traffic increases . The
more oil the tankers a re a llowed to carry ,
the less effective the cleanup procedures
wou ld be in the event of a spill.
As soon as the oi l bega n oozing from
the tanker's hull , stro ng currents wou ld
start distributing it around the sou nd .
So me o il would travel north to the British
Columbia coastline; some would head for
e ncl ose d est uari es along th e n ort h e rn
Washington coast line; some would thread
its way into inner Puget Sound , ending up
on such beaches as Golden Gardens and
Alki Point.
High winds a nd rough" wa ters cou ld
thwart cleanup efforts by distributing the
oi l more quickly and rendering cleanup
equipment useless .
Unrecovered oil would harm marine
plant a nd animal life for years to come.
O il deposited on beaches would turn into
a pudding-like mess which would event ua lly harden if left untreated.
Ano ther area of disagreement is whether
the larger supertankers pose greater oil
spill haza rds than smaller tankers. Oil
compa nies contend larger ships mea n fewer . vessel trjps, redu cing the chances of a
collision or accident. The use of larger
vessels also means the more economical
the load for the oil company .
Env ironmentalists assert that the bigger
the ship, the worse the sp ill. The most disastrous spills in history - the Torrey

algae, a nd sa lt marshes ."
With the building of this pipeline, crude
o il supertank ers would be eliminated from
inner Puget So und . The only tankers on
inner Puge t Sound would be sma ller,
20,000 dead -weight- ton tankers carrying
refined oil .
Govern or Evans' w ish of a Single Point
Discharge System out of the Port Angeles
area would be granted. Howeve r, it could
make Port Angeles o ne of the nation's
chief deepwate r o il superpor ts, ha ndling
amounts of oil equa l to that of Los Angeles, Houston, and Newark . Some people
find the prospect frightening for a little
port w hich up till now has handled rel ative droplets of o il.

EVERGREEN
STUDENTS
BAGEL-ORIENTED
Wha t do Everg reeners really
eat?
Cra ig McCarty . Food Ser~e
Direc tor. kept track of every
item purchased at the SAGA
De licatessen on Tuesday, Febru a ry 24. and came up with some
interesting results.
Many Evergreen students are,
o f co ur se. h eal th -o rient ed in
their ea ting . While I won't go
int o th e nutrit iona l value of bage ls, many food - conscious Evergree ne rs eat and enjoy them so much so that 167 bagels were
so ld las t Tuesday, making them
the ho ttest selling item of the
d ay .
Other snacks tha t whe tted the
nut riti o nal side of the appe tite
were cheese a nd c rea m cheese
items. o f which 130 pieces were
so ld ; app les, wh ic h so ld a tota l
of 72 and cashew s with 59 packages purchased.
Alth o ugh seve ral of the best
sellin g it ems were in the " nut riti o na l" catego ry , many stude nts
ava il ed th e mselv es o f " junk
food" last Tuesda y.
Ca ndy a nd gum were the fro nt
runn ers - 97 pieces were sold to
ca mpu s swee t - toot hs. Ice cream
buffs purchased 28 bars. Among
the more ha rd -co re ju nk foo d
ea ters Shasta pop . se llin g 32
ca ns. a nd potato chips, at 25
packages. were a lso popular.
Certai n foods were avoided almost un a nim ous ly by student s.
They included Hostess Cakes.
sun flow e r seed s, pea nut butter,
co ttage cheese a nd ra isins.
C ra ig McCarty ca me to several
co nclu sions a bout his Deli survey
of last week . He disco vered tha t
o f the Si374 taken in last Tuesday. SAGA made a profit of
o nly $30 - after paying food
costs. labor, taxes a nd othe r expenses.
A ft e( so m e ca lculatin g McCa rt y concluded that cont inuing
with pr ese n t pric es th e Del i
wou ld lose a bout Sil,OOO by the
end of t.he school year.
McCarty is maki n g severa l
cha nges to avoid tha t loss . The
first and most obvious is to raise
prices sli g htl y on all items. That
cha nge is a lready in effect. M cCa rt y will also begin phasing o ut
many of the unpopul ar ca nned
items such as vegetables. fruits
and main di shes.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
Popular foods like honey-yogurt, honey ice cream , cheeses,
bagels, natural cookies and fruit
sq u a re s will probably be in creased on the shelves.
McCarty says he will conduct
the survey one mo re time for
compar ison a nd further data .

OIL SPILL REACHES
BEACHES
An oil sp ill last weekend from
a n unknown source has washed
as hore at scattered beaches along
250 miles of Washington and
Oregon shoreline, leaving over
200 sea birds dead.
The oil has been identified as
an old, emulsified oil which has
floated ashore in glob-like tarballs at the Makah Indian Reserva tion near Cape Flattery to Tillamook Bay in Oregon.
One Coast Guard spokesman
sa id there is less than a ten percent chance of learning the sp ill's
ca use.
II is likely the oil pollution
was the result of a ship or ships
pumping bilges or cleaning tanks
whi le pass ing along the coast
so metime last week. Such practices a re common 50 miles o ut to
sea a nd beyond.
Officia ls specu la te the oil was
pu shed as hore by sout h to southwest sto rm s which hit the coas t
las t week.

EVERGREEN
STUDENTS
BAGEL-ORIENTED
Wha t do Everg reeners really
eat?
Cra ig McCarty . Food Ser~e
Direc tor. kept track of every
item purchased at the SAGA
De licatessen on Tuesday, Febru a ry 24. and came up with some
interesting results.
Many Evergreen students are,
o f co ur se. h eal th -o rient ed in
their ea ting . While I won't go
int o th e nutrit iona l value of bage ls, many food - conscious Evergree ne rs eat and enjoy them so much so that 167 bagels were
so ld las t Tuesday, making them
the ho ttest selling item of the
d ay .
Other snacks tha t whe tted the
nut riti o nal side of the appe tite
were cheese a nd c rea m cheese
items. o f which 130 pieces were
so ld ; app les, wh ic h so ld a tota l
of 72 and cashew s with 59 packages purchased.
Alth o ugh seve ral of the best
sellin g it ems were in the " nut riti o na l" catego ry , many stude nts
ava il ed th e mselv es o f " junk
food" last Tuesda y.
Ca ndy a nd gum were the fro nt
runn ers - 97 pieces were sold to
ca mpu s swee t - toot hs. Ice cream
buffs purchased 28 bars. Among
the more ha rd -co re ju nk foo d
ea ters Shasta pop . se llin g 32
ca ns. a nd potato chips, at 25
packages. were a lso popular.
Certai n foods were avoided almost un a nim ous ly by student s.
They included Hostess Cakes.
sun flow e r seed s, pea nut butter,
co ttage cheese a nd ra isins.
C ra ig McCarty ca me to several
co nclu sions a bout his Deli survey
of last week . He disco vered tha t
o f the Si374 taken in last Tuesday. SAGA made a profit of
o nly $30 - after paying food
costs. labor, taxes a nd othe r expenses.
A ft e( so m e ca lculatin g McCa rt y concluded that cont inuing
with pr ese n t pric es th e Del i
wou ld lose a bout Sil,OOO by the
end of t.he school year.
McCarty is maki n g severa l
cha nges to avoid tha t loss . The
first and most obvious is to raise
prices sli g htl y on all items. That
cha nge is a lready in effect. M cCa rt y will also begin phasing o ut
many of the unpopul ar ca nned
items such as vegetables. fruits
and main di shes.

ANNOUNCEMENTS
Popular foods like honey-yogurt, honey ice cream , cheeses,
bagels, natural cookies and fruit
sq u a re s will probably be in creased on the shelves.
McCarty says he will conduct
the survey one mo re time for
compar ison a nd further data .

OIL SPILL REACHES
BEACHES
An oil sp ill last weekend from
a n unknown source has washed
as hore at scattered beaches along
250 miles of Washington and
Oregon shoreline, leaving over
200 sea birds dead.
The oil has been identified as
an old, emulsified oil which has
floated ashore in glob-like tarballs at the Makah Indian Reserva tion near Cape Flattery to Tillamook Bay in Oregon.
One Coast Guard spokesman
sa id there is less than a ten percent chance of learning the sp ill's
ca use.
II is likely the oil pollution
was the result of a ship or ships
pumping bilges or cleaning tanks
whi le pass ing along the coast
so metime last week. Such practices a re common 50 miles o ut to
sea a nd beyond.
Officia ls specu la te the oil was
pu shed as hore by sout h to southwest sto rm s which hit the coas t
las t week.

pia a rea , were made with a
broken 3.5 cent plastic box ca mera. The argument has to be
made that it isn' t the equipment
but the photographer who makes
the difference between junk a nd
art. But a person can get so invo lv ed in unusual methods tha t
they forget to concen trate on the
original objective and the photo graph suffers as a result.
There a re a few highlights to
co me o ut of a ll this experimentation. Josh Tou ster's photos of a
dog on a beac h a nd a woman at
Baskin-Robbins have a quality
that makes them hard to wa lk
away from. Kath leen Meighan's
pho tos (printed throu gh plastic)
seem to be possessed of a n unea rthl y . surrea l glow. Her Easter
lil ics and "elect ric" trees are possiblv the best works in the show .
Lar~y Shlim 's " Pledge of A llegia nce" photo is a fascinat ingly
slark po rtra it of Middle America
while Bo b lya ll' s picture of a

d reamlike.
For the most pa rt. thou gh . the
sh0w fails. T he photos a re lifeless and vo id . images fillin g the
v ie w fin de r The lesson t o be
lea rned from these "new direclion s" in photography is that if
the photographer doesn ' t know
wha t he's trying to communicate,
h e can ' t ex p ec t the viewing
public to supply it for him .

REVIEW
COPROPHILIA AND
BREWS~R McCLOUD
by Matt Groening
[n the old days comedies often evoked laughter with carefully choreographed pie fights , using reaction shots of Oliver
Hardy or Moe of The Three Stooges doing slow burns whi le
the remnants of gooey cream pies dripped down their faces. In
the 1970's comedians discovered that mere pie-flinging no
longer amused their jaded audiences quite as much, so th ey
turned to more unpleasant substances in their quest for big
laughs . From George Carlin's monologues to johnny Carson's
constipation wisec racks to Frank Zappa's doo-doo ly ri cs to
The Magic Christian 's pool-dunking scenes to Monty Python
and th e Holy Gra il's bucket-dumping to the coprophi lia of
Pink Flamingos , "shit" humor is making it big.
Robert Altman's 1970 movie BREWSTER M cCLOUD is fi rm ly entrenched in this new tradition in comedy . The main running joke is bird shit, which rea lly sums up the who le pseudohip mess Altman drops on us. In addition to the guano theme
we get some vomit humor in the same vein, a few marijuana
jokes, pointless in-joke references to other films, a parody of
the car chase in Bullitt that· is as boring as the original mov ie
was. and occasional inadvertent touches of humor which seem
mainly a matter of chance. Doran Cannon's confused script
(which even Altman admitted was "crap") has something to do
with baby-faced Brewster McCloud (Bud Cortl. who lives in a
secret hideout underneath Houston 's Astrodome and builds a
bicycl e contraption with bird -like flapping wings in preparation
for an escape to paradise, He is protected from the clutches of
evil by his guardian angel/fairy godmother Louise (Sally Kellerman), who walks around acting mysterious but doesn' t do
much else. Brewster's search for supplies in the outside world
results in contact with various villains (a miser ly billionaire, a
sadistic narcotics agent, and so onl. who suddenly a nd unexplainedly end up murdered, their imminent demise signalled by
bird shit dropping on them from the sky. For some reason
Brewster must remain a virgin if he is to fly, which gives Altman an excuse to trot out some sniggering sexis t gags about seduction that are as unsubt le as anything else in thi s cartoonlike movie. Altman's anti-women attitudes are evident in many
of his works, but in none are they as pronounced as in BREWSTER M cCLOUD (with the possible exception of The Long
Goodbye, which [ have not seen).
The a nswe r for Altman a nd other artists involved in comedy
is not to try to top themselves with more and more outrageous
humor, as they seem to be doing. Once the shock (and shocked
laughter) is gone, the bizarre props that pass for characters in
BREWSTER McCLOUD and movies like it seem empty and
lifeless.
What the audience finally longs to laugh at are the subtle
moves and posturings of master perfonners portraying sym pathetic characters, like the screen personalities of Keaton and
Chaplin, to name the best. Fancy camera work and semi-daring
gags, which BREWSTER McCLOUD almost has, will never be
enough .

BIRD COSTUME CONTEST
An opportun ity for the creative and the insane to strut their
stuff. . . The Bestiality Resource Center and Friday Night
Films present the first annual bird costume contest to be held
before the 9: 30 shOWing of Brewster McCloud. Prizes for first,
second and third places.

pia a rea , were made with a
broken 3.5 cent plastic box ca mera. The argument has to be
made that it isn' t the equipment
but the photographer who makes
the difference between junk a nd
art. But a person can get so invo lv ed in unusual methods tha t
they forget to concen trate on the
original objective and the photo graph suffers as a result.
There a re a few highlights to
co me o ut of a ll this experimentation. Josh Tou ster's photos of a
dog on a beac h a nd a woman at
Baskin-Robbins have a quality
that makes them hard to wa lk
away from. Kath leen Meighan's
pho tos (printed throu gh plastic)
seem to be possessed of a n unea rthl y . surrea l glow. Her Easter
lil ics and "elect ric" trees are possiblv the best works in the show .
Lar~y Shlim 's " Pledge of A llegia nce" photo is a fascinat ingly
slark po rtra it of Middle America
while Bo b lya ll' s picture of a
sink and il window fram in g a
group ot trees outside is a lm ost
d reamlike.
For the most pa rt. thou gh . the
sh0w fails. T he photos a re lifeless and vo id . images fillin g the
v ie w fin de r The lesson t o be
lea rned from these "new direclion s" in photography is that if
the photographer doesn ' t know
wha t he's trying to communicate,
h e can ' t ex p ec t the viewing
public to supply it for him .

was. and occasional inadvertent touches of humor which seem
mainly a matter of chance. Doran Cannon's confused script
(which even Altman admitted was "crap") has something to do
with baby-faced Brewster McCloud (Bud Cortl. who lives in a
secret hideout underneath Houston 's Astrodome and builds a
bicycl e contraption with bird -like flapping wings in preparation
for an escape to paradise, He is protected from the clutches of
evil by his guardian angel/fairy godmother Louise (Sally Kellerman), who walks around acting mysterious but doesn' t do
much else. Brewster's search for supplies in the outside world
results in contact with various villains (a miser ly billionaire, a
sadistic narcotics agent, and so onl. who suddenly a nd unexplainedly end up murdered, their imminent demise signalled by
bird shit dropping on them from the sky. For some reason
Brewster must remain a virgin if he is to fly, which gives Altman an excuse to trot out some sniggering sexis t gags about seduction that are as unsubt le as anything else in thi s cartoonlike movie. Altman's anti-women attitudes are evident in many
of his works, but in none are they as pronounced as in BREWSTER M cCLOUD (with the possible exception of The Long
Goodbye, which [ have not seen).
The a nswe r for Altman a nd other artists involved in comedy
is not to try to top themselves with more and more outrageous
humor, as they seem to be doing. Once the shock (and shocked
laughter) is gone, the bizarre props that pass for characters in
BREWSTER McCLOUD and movies like it seem empty and
lifeless.
What the audience finally longs to laugh at are the subtle
moves and posturings of master perfonners portraying sym pathetic characters, like the screen personalities of Keaton and
Chaplin, to name the best. Fancy camera work and semi-daring
gags, which BREWSTER McCLOUD almost has, will never be
enough .

BIRD COSTUME CONTEST
An opportun ity for the creative and the insane to strut their
stuff. . . The Bestiality Resource Center and Friday Night
Films present the first annual bird costume contest to be held
before the 9: 30 shOWing of Brewster McCloud. Prizes for first,
second and third places.

During a lengthy and busy meeting Feb .
26, the Evergreen Board of Trustees
established a citizens advisory committee,
gave President McCann the go ahead to
hire a dean for the new access center and
raised summer quarter tuition.
The citizen's advisory committee is a
lO-member group whose task will be to
examine Evergreen and attempt to
measure its impact on the state of
Washington. One of the prime objectives
of the group will be to ga ther statewide
views on Evergreen as it passes the 5 -year
mark in operations and formu la te this
information into a report to be presented
to the Board.
In other ac!ion during the Thursday
meeting, t he BOT approved the first
phase of the realignment necessary to
create the new Student Access Center,
a llow in g President McCann to find and
hire a dean for the gmup. Because of the
tight bud ge t situation, McCann has
stipulated that the access center dean will
be chosen from within Evergreen and that
there will be "no net additions to the
administration ." The new dean will not
rotate in a nd ou t of the faculty as present
deans do but, according to McCann, "will
be as permanent as anything else is
permanent a round here."

vote), but Thurston County as well,
where his 44% vote was only 5% ahead
of the "uncom mitted" delegates. The
county -wide sampling showed Rep.

second with 16% of the precinct vote.
Other candidates took up the remaining
1%.

In the Democratic ca ucus for th e
Broadway precinct (which includes ASH

majority nomination . Close to 40 registered voters turned out for the caucus, a
significant in crease over the 6 to 10
average of county precincts four years
ago, About half of those 40 voters were
members of the Evergreen commun ity,

Public Interest Research at Evergreen

(Last of a series.) Last week some of the
problems of the first Nader-inspired
PIRGs were explored, along with some of
the projects that PIRGs in other states
have implemented,

Why a Public Interest Research Group
(PIRG) at Evergreen?
The educational mode here would easily accommodate the formation and implementation of a WashPlRG group. The
faculty and students are hopefully still interdisciplinary, thus avoiding a major
problem on other campuses - how to
award credit for PIRG work? Is it economics? Political science? Sociology? At
' Evergreen it would be possible to create a
continuing group contract in public interest research without having to fit into the
structure of a particular department.
But the biggest problem here, as at
other schools, would not be awarding
credit, but arousing interest and starting a
petition drive for a PIRG . How many
people would it take to start? Only 15
's tudents organized the PIRG movement

in Minnesota until widespread support
was gained . Evergreen had twenty times
that many people concerned about curriculum planning . If 400 people are concerned about the nature of their schooll ing, then perhaps half that many might
wonder what they could do about the
state of their state.

'ONLY 15 STUDENTS .
ORGANIZED THE PIRG
MOVEMENT IN
,
MINNESOTA.
I.

The cost for establishing a PlRG need
not be prohibitive. The total cost in Oregon was $7,000 over a six- month period
involving 14 schools and 75,000 students .
Minnesota's campaign cost less than
$5,000 and involved 17 schools and al most 100,00 students. The cost per school

could be less than $500.
There are six steps to se tting up a PIRG.
A core group is formed, the plan is presented to students, the PIRG petition is
drafted, the petition drive is started, and
finally , after more than 50 % of the students agree to support a PIRG , then negotiations are started for administrative
approval.
By signing a PlRG petition, students
agree to pay $2 - $3 in addition to their
regular tuition payment. This money
would be used to form th e financial base
for the group. If, at any time, more than
50 % of the students decided that PIRG
was no longer desirable, tlien the group
would be disbanded and students would
receive a refund.
Although obtaining student signatures
would be the most tedious task, the biggest one would be convincing the administration of the college to approve a PIRG
measure (see article, Journal, 2126, p. 1).
And, if a bill before the Washington state
legislature doesn't pass, then the colleg'"

could continue to act as a collection
agency for activities such as a bookstore
or PIRG (Ibid.).
If Evergreen were to implement and ap prove a PlRG measure, we would be part
of a state-w ide PIRG group . Each campus
group would have a student-elected Board
of Control which in turn would se nd rep resentatives to a state Board . The size of
the campus would determine the number
of representatives.
The state Board would ideally be lo cated in the state ca pital to allow easier
access to documents, hearings a nd legislators.
Why WashPlRG at Evergreen? Maybe
because you just had your rent raised fo r
no reason. Maybe because you don 't want
to pay 15 cents for directory assistance.
Maybe because a store sell s hamburger
that has been frozen as fresh . Or maybe
because you'd rather do something about
some of those consumer problems you've
been having, rather than deal with the
capitalist theory behind them in seminar.
