A Beginner's Guide To The S and A Board
by Brad Pokorny
lot~]'""'""'~~ "''v•~• •~•....1

Fifty-one of the one hundred and
sixty-nine doll~ri · that in -state students
pay fo r tuition every quarter go into the
Service and Activities fund . This money
pays fo r student activities and groups,
such as the Bus System, the Women 's

Center, the Alpine club. and the COOPER
POINT JOURNAl , to name a few .
The S&A Board decides how this money
is spent. Ca ll it a quasi - representati onal
fo rm o f government. The six students who
~ r ve o n the S& A Board were chosen
from a group of volunteers who responded
to a rec ruitment sign in the CAB building
la st fall. Less than ten people showed up
at the meeting .
Each year all student groups funded by
t he S& A fund must d~w up budget pro posals and submit them to the board.
Three weeks ago the board published
a su rvey in the JOURNAL to help decide
how to allocate the $277.612 projected for
next 'year's fund . One hundred twenty - five
pe o ple co mpleted the questionnaires ,
whi ch asked for a numerical value judgment (numbering from one to five) of
whether g rou ps were " not important ," t.o
"of moderate importance," to " indispensa -

bl•." HEAlTH SERVICES TAKES IT
Health Se rvices wa s deemed indis pen sable by 69 percent of the s tudent s ans wer mg the sur vey . O ne co mplica tion IS that
Hea lth Se rvices has not been funded by
S &A before. and some board meinbers
feet it was misleading to include 11 o n thE'
su rvey . The co llege has funded HE'alth
Services in the past . but the <~dministra ­
!1(1n has recently wa rned that this ma y
not continue 1f the legislature cut s the
school's budget as much as is pred icted
Terry Wright , the S &A Boa rd member
who compi lt.>d the results of the survey .

said that a maj o rity of the questionnaires
had messages on them indicating that while
the people s upported Health Servi ces. they
did not think its cos t should be assumed

by S&A .
last Tuesday. April 26. the S& A Boa rd
1ssued a statt>ment that 5 &: A mo nies s hould

fu ll text of this sta tement appears on page

from any medical center ." the board
wrote , "s tudents need low cos t or free
medical service that IS close and conven ient. " The board fears that if S & A a~; ­

Steve Francis, the S& A Board member
who drafted most of the sta tement ~a •d .
" In a sense it is a s tatement to the admin istrati o n . By taking a stand now, S tudent
Se rvices [t he budget group that cur rentl y

to look more deeply int o their budget ,
knowing that S & A believes 11 s hou ld not

One purpose o f the s tatement IS to take
the pressure off the S & A Board , ~;a id
Francis. " It 's thE' adminiStration 's decJs•on

Dem.o Mem.o: A Dram.a In Three Acts

EXOTIC SURROUNDINGS

I

(

by Kurie Jacobs
Act One
It is February ) , 1977, and The Evergreen S tate Co llege library lobby is filled
with an audience unusual b y Evergreen
sta ndards . They are a well -dressed crowd ,
drawn primarily fro m outside o f the College : Olympia residents . Tumwaterites.
perhaps a stray Centralian, and a few MeCho rd Air Fo rce Base camp-follow~rs. all
eagerly awaiting a rousing perfo nnance
by the Air Fo rce Band . Before the crisply unifonned mu sicians in blue could sound
o ne brassy note. they were upstaged by
a group of 30 Evergreen students, including four grim reapers, pro!esting the
bands ' appe<~rance at the College . The
demonstrators read a statement condemning the Air Force fo r its war-time atrocities, and showed color slid~ of napalmed
babies. Then they retreated into the wings ,
leaving the black-dad reapers behind as a
conti nuo us reminder of what had occurred . The four token represent01tives of the
dead were ousted at half- time by SKurity,
and otherwiSt" the concert proceeded witho ut interruption . By the time the concert
reached its co nclusion , zipping off into
the wild blue yonder to the beat of the
Air Force theme song. the incident remained only an ugly blot in the back of
the audience's collective memory .
Act Two
A return concert of the Air Force Band.
scheduled for April 12, was cancelled ~
cause the threolt of another demonstration

loft Judy Annis, Security Chiof Mac Smith,
and Presid~nt ChariH McCann f.. ling
helplns. They couldn't det~rmin~ what
action could actually be t01ken to dei!l

3138 Overhulse Rd .

with such incidents, and they concluded
that wh01t were really needed were guidelines . So. in the grand tradition of The
Ev~!'pftn Stat~ College, the Stato of
W uhin~~ton, and other noble burooucnodn, McCann wrote a memo . This memo,

doted April 15, proposed a number of
procedures to be followed by College- or
CoHege-affiliated groups protesting 01n u -

<~nother wt of rules somewhere that would

Unification Church on our campus.) Tho
proposed ruin allow a demonstration to

occur at any time on any campus property , providing that the location is not being
used for any College activity at the time .
For example, 01 protest m<~y occur on the
athletic field , usuming ihat 01 soccer game
is not in progress. A protest mily not take
place in a library building lounge if a temi

nar is underway t~ . A good protnt by
McCann's guidelinft should be p.,.aful ,
should not p~vent the activity tNt is

bemg pro tt><;tt•d from taking place . should
not di ">rup t the event. and should be qu1et
Nl11se - ma km ~ devices , such ao; drums dnd
.-.tt'cl -toed boots o n co ncrete and <1mpl1h
mg devices s uch a s megaph one' are s tn ll·
ly ve rboten .
Act Three
Preside n t McCann asked that responc:,e<.
to the memo and input o n the suggested
procedure be se nt to his ottice by Apnl
27. but due to the vo lume of respon"t'
from st udent s , fa cu lty , and staff , he hJ'i
f''<lended the date for repl y to May 5
One g roup o f students respon ded tr' the
memo with a letter whi ch spe nt severdl
da ys in the C AB building accumulatmg ·
signatures. The letter voiced tw o mam ob jections to the demonstration procedure'>
and elaborated o n them . The students
first po int wa s "Ht !McCann! propose<;
to alter the process of pro test as thou~h
this will not interfere with 1ts nature and
content. " Secondly, they stated. "He ,.,
co ncerned exclusively with o rderl y procedures and completely ignores the quest1on
of wh y pro tests occur in the first pla ce
The letter a ccuses McCann of rendenn~
protest ineffectual and therefore under ·
mimng the right to protest. It a lso cntlCI zes the decision-making process w'h1Ch
the letter co ntends , is a prime mot1vat1on
o f protest .
Presumably , McCann will take the respo nses he rece1ved into accou nt when he
re-drafts the proposal fo r presentation to
the Board of Trustees. If, after a publ iC
hearing , the Board approve-s the procedural guidelin~ . thtoy will be added to the
Evergr~n Administrative Code, 01 th1 ck
volume which h01s rules for regul01ting
everything from puking permits to p~g­
nancy leave-s.
If instituted, the proce<lures for prot~t
m<~y serve to ~ke Ev<rrgr'e'en a liveli~r

som~thing to ~I against.

through o ut histo ry, as well as re fle-ct the increa sing phenomenon

President McCann'! memo in dicates the o verall trend of deci sion makers to treat ~ystem "problems" like demonstrations with
another sys tem "problem ." (rules,

Both the demonstrati o n and
McCann 's memo imply impaired

RE: February 3 Protest and
McCann 's Memo
In last week's letter to the edi tor , " Regulating Drmonstra tions ," Alan Madar and Krag

Unsa.ld
T o the Editor :
After ~vera! days of discussing
the issue of the right to dissent
vs . the right to assent without
interruption, one point has be come clear. If the 'ommunity
needs guicMiines for dissent , thr

.xpres~

that th• "So-

cial Contract ensure-s the rights
of individuals and groups to ex prf:SS their ideas, judgments, and
opinions." Agreed , but to what
lensths is " freedom" of expression stretched? A.grft'd, the pro test was a necessary reminder not
only of the atrocitiH committed

is that the theft of bicycles will
in c rea se co nsiderably . While
there are no panaceas to this
problem I would suggest that a
few comm o n -sense measures
wo uld at least make some differ ence- in the rate at which bikes
are sto len . Lod..ing up a bike
when 11 is parked is the most ob VIo us deterrent. This should be
do ne with a substantial chain
thro ugh the frame that will with stand m o re than a pinch from a
pa1r o f pliers. Evf>n though the
b1ke is locked an occasional check
o n it is al so a good deterrent.
After a bike is stolen recovery
is very difficult . Thrre are currently no laws in Thurston Coun ty requiring licensing, and it 's
not illegal to file off a bike;s seri al number . Nt'edless to say a
stolen bike is easy to re-sell.
The problem throughout the
county is at a point where the
Sheriff's Department hu an offi cer working exclusively on bicy cle thefts and their prevention .
Campus Security has an elK Ironic marker which we urge
people to Ust' to mark social security numbers or their names on
the bike in addition to thr serial
number . We also suggest the use
of a property I D slip to record
serial numbers and other information on the bike in c.ase of
theft . We havt> some other ideas
about prevention and recovery
as well , and welcome any con cerned bike owner to com!! in
and talk with us about it.

An Evergreen
Guide
To the Editor:
TESC has a unique approach
to learning which encouragrs stu dents to p.articipate in structufing
their own educational develop ment . Coordimned studies pro grams provide an interdiscipli - '
nary foundation for the student
who m.ay tum to more specialized
group and / or individually con tracted studies l.ater on .
......,...
When such student involve ment in program - planning works
it is a fulfilling experience for student .and faculty . But often stu dents are frustrated by .a seeming
inability to put together a con -

tract which can meet their needs .
Many times the options and re sources are available . Yet the stu dent is not aware of them , and
she does not know how to seek
out and coordinate the resources
she could' use . The Trial Balloon
and the Academic Advising Of fice are useful tools in developing
such programs.
One way to ease this problem
is to compile a thorough guide of
all educational options and re-sources available at Evergreen .
This resource guide should be
cross- referenced and currentl y
correct. It co uld be included in
the regular catalog and updated
in the catalog supplements .
The following informati o n provides a basis for compiling a
TESC resource guide :
1 .) all Self-Paced Learning
Units
2 . ) all available internships along with suggntions for poten tial internship opportunities
3.) all work-study projects for
credit
4 . ) all potential contracts for
credit -generating activities which
nHd doing . Example : playground
equipment for the day care cen ter needs to be designed and constructed .
Sincerely,

it to the level of an entire social
racial or sexual group! It's s~
long overdue that we all start
knowing or seeing each other as
individuals and get out of our
insecure petty prejudices. This
event is as discriminating as any

of the others (ELKS, EAGLES711 )
that it may seem to provide an
excuse to hold this - yet another
discriminating event . Granted ,
many of the women attending
the festival aren't so hard-core
against men , and it is just one
three-day festival for women to
get off on each other. But why
are men being "cut off' from
what they are expected to be
accepting in this day of higher
consciousness? Are they simply
meant to realize they are not accepted because they were bo rn
male?
I had an interesting conversation with a local woman musician
who would like to perform in
open mike portion or the festival.
but since she performs with a
man who plays guitar, they decided not to cause a disturbance .
Please, review the term "Unit ed we stand, divided we fall ."
Does that mean women unite
and sorry men , you must pay
because some men have made it
difficult for some women177

T o the Edit o r :
By a vo te of 5-1 the Servi ces

to publicize its opinion that :

SERVICES AND ACTIVITIES

FUND HEALTH SERVICES
The majority of the members
of the S&A Board believe that

Health S.,rvices should be funded
by the C ollege. It is not a marginal service, one that students
can do without. Because Evergreen is far from any medical
center. students need low-cost or

solely by whether the College

Unsa.ld
T o the Editor :
After ~vera! days of discussing
the issue of the right to dissent
vs . the right to assent without
interruption, one point has be come clear. If the 'ommunity
needs guicMiines for dissent , thr

.xpres~

that th• "So-

cial Contract ensure-s the rights
of individuals and groups to ex prf:SS their ideas, judgments, and
opinions." Agreed , but to what
lensths is " freedom" of expression stretched? A.grft'd, the pro test was a necessary reminder not
only of the atrocitiH committed

is that the theft of bicycles will
in c rea se co nsiderably . While
there are no panaceas to this
problem I would suggest that a
few comm o n -sense measures
wo uld at least make some differ ence- in the rate at which bikes
are sto len . Lod..ing up a bike
when 11 is parked is the most ob VIo us deterrent. This should be
do ne with a substantial chain
thro ugh the frame that will with stand m o re than a pinch from a
pa1r o f pliers. Evf>n though the
b1ke is locked an occasional check
o n it is al so a good deterrent.
After a bike is stolen recovery
is very difficult . Thrre are currently no laws in Thurston Coun ty requiring licensing, and it 's
not illegal to file off a bike;s seri al number . Nt'edless to say a
stolen bike is easy to re-sell.
The problem throughout the
county is at a point where the
Sheriff's Department hu an offi cer working exclusively on bicy cle thefts and their prevention .
Campus Security has an elK Ironic marker which we urge
people to Ust' to mark social security numbers or their names on
the bike in addition to thr serial
number . We also suggest the use
of a property I D slip to record
serial numbers and other information on the bike in c.ase of
theft . We havt> some other ideas
about prevention and recovery
as well , and welcome any con cerned bike owner to com!! in
and talk with us about it.

An Evergreen
Guide
To the Editor:
TESC has a unique approach
to learning which encouragrs stu dents to p.articipate in structufing
their own educational develop ment . Coordimned studies pro grams provide an interdiscipli - '
nary foundation for the student
who m.ay tum to more specialized
group and / or individually con tracted studies l.ater on .
......,...
When such student involve ment in program - planning works
it is a fulfilling experience for student .and faculty . But often stu dents are frustrated by .a seeming
inability to put together a con -

tract which can meet their needs .
Many times the options and re sources are available . Yet the stu dent is not aware of them , and
she does not know how to seek
out and coordinate the resources
she could' use . The Trial Balloon
and the Academic Advising Of fice are useful tools in developing
such programs.
One way to ease this problem
is to compile a thorough guide of
all educational options and re-sources available at Evergreen .
This resource guide should be
cross- referenced and currentl y
correct. It co uld be included in
the regular catalog and updated
in the catalog supplements .
The following informati o n provides a basis for compiling a
TESC resource guide :
1 .) all Self-Paced Learning
Units
2 . ) all available internships along with suggntions for poten tial internship opportunities
3.) all work-study projects for
credit
4 . ) all potential contracts for
credit -generating activities which
nHd doing . Example : playground
equipment for the day care cen ter needs to be designed and constructed .
Sincerely,

it to the level of an entire social
racial or sexual group! It's s~
long overdue that we all start
knowing or seeing each other as
individuals and get out of our
insecure petty prejudices. This
event is as discriminating as any

of the others (ELKS, EAGLES711 )
that it may seem to provide an
excuse to hold this - yet another
discriminating event . Granted ,
many of the women attending
the festival aren't so hard-core
against men , and it is just one
three-day festival for women to
get off on each other. But why
are men being "cut off' from
what they are expected to be
accepting in this day of higher
consciousness? Are they simply
meant to realize they are not accepted because they were bo rn
male?
I had an interesting conversation with a local woman musician
who would like to perform in
open mike portion or the festival.
but since she performs with a
man who plays guitar, they decided not to cause a disturbance .
Please, review the term "Unit ed we stand, divided we fall ."

Rape Contdou~MM
From the time men are born to
the time men die, we are imbued
with rape consciousnns . Rape
consciousness is the need to keep
women down , keep women in a
subservient role , to discount
women intellectually, and generally regard women as inferior. It
is the objectification of women ,
and fantasies about fucking combined with a drive for power.
This co nsciousnt'Ss is pervasive
throughout our culture. It is im -

portant to ~ that while rape is
a specific act , rape consciousness
is a state of mind that transcends
the boundaries of sexuality and
finds itself imbedded in our cul ture and economic system . This
co nsciousness is not only dehumanizing to women , but blocks
men from their po tential as hu man beings .
Ripe and c~pita.lism
Capitalism provides the per fect setting fo r rapist mentality .
One can 't buy whiskey without
caressing smooth and soft Black
Velvet. Cars co me equipped with
women . Movi(>S provide a medi um for the glorification of rape .
The man seduces the woman , the
w oman says no , the man doesn't
give up, the woman loves it. In
many states a woman that has
been raped gets victimized from
the time she is raped to the time
she goes to court. The legal framework of this country is such that
a man cann ot rape " his" wife ,
o therwise known as his property .
The co mpetition that takes
place within our economi c sys tem provides yet another link
between rape and capitalism .
Men are taught that in order to
reach the top, you must shove
so meone else out of your way . If
you want power you have to

show that you can use it. If a
person is frustrated many times
he will take it out on an employee, a child, a woman . Perhaps
there is a connection between the
current e-conomic crisis and the
increase in rape . When a person
doesn't have a job or control
o ver their life , what are they to
do7 If you are a man you don' t
let those feelings of inadequacy
overwhelm you . You try to re press them . And one way of try ing is rape .
What Can Men Do 1
Does this mean that men should
feel guilty because they are men7
Of co urse not . However, it does
mean that wr, as men , should
recognize the potential rapist inside of all of us , and start to deal
with this part of our psyche .
Clearly men have got to sta rt
taking responsibility for stopping
rape . Rapists are not psychotic
men . They are men like you and
me . Man y rapists did not kno w
when they were going to cross
the line between fantasit>S and re ality . For the sake of women and
o urselves we are starting to work
to stop rape , rape consciousness
and the social institutions that
provide the breeding grounds for
rape . If any men feel compelled
to work against rape they are

There will be a presentation on

I" thereby granted. To grant a
o~ht bu t not ti s exercise is to
~r.1nt no nght at all
Ar act of protest is , by defim'H,n a group of people showing

their dissent to an other group of
people wh o, at least implicitly ,
are showmg their consent to a
gtven issue. That the act of di ssent must be shown to those who
co nsent we all agree with intui tively . Were this no t so. those
pro testing could stay home and
protest" in private to themselves
or to each o ther. A protest like
th1s wou ld be clearly ineffectual.
Any proced ures for exercis ing the
nght to protest whi ch similarly
renders 11 meffectual, in fact , in l£' rlen~s with the righ t itself .
Pre s1 dent M cC ann 's " Proce dures for Demonstra tions" argues
that a perso n's nght IS mfnnged
upon if s/ he IS made the sub1ect
ol a protest when 11 was no t for
th1s that s l he attended an event.
Nevertheless, if everyo ne has a
nght to pro test. logica lly , any one is liabl e to be pro tested a gam st Being su bject to an a ct of
protest , therefore , is not an in fnngeme nt o f a right.
McCan n's " Procedures" never theless do consider it an infringe ment of a right. Hen ce, the pro cedures exclude th ose peo ple protesting from the loca tio n of an
event at the time of the event ,
and by prohibi ting the use of a
microphonr the protest does not

reach those to whom it is aimed
at The only option left by the
"' Procedures" is the all -too -famil Iar carrymg of posters and chantmg o f slogans at the doors to an
event. With such a poor option
available it is not surprising that
protests are often a ccused o f be mg "irrational yelling and scream ing" and of totally lack ing in
content.
By rendering the exercise of
protest almost completely inef fectual. the proposed " Procedures
for Demonstrations" undermine
the very right to protest.
l l.) The o ther issue is why pro -

tests occu r at all . Protests are an
obvio us symptom that a group
of people concerned about an is sue have no ot her means available to express their opinions ef fectively . The expression of these
o pinions is particularly important
when they are concerned with
decisi ons whi ch affect everyone.
If people are not allowed to par ticipate effectively in the deciSion -making process, they are
under no circumstances obliged
to abide by these decisions .
The majority of the staff, students and faculty are generally
excluded from the decision-mak ing process at Eve rgreen . This

has been evident in 1 ) the Presi dential Selection process, 2) fund ing for President McCann's leave,
and 3) The Administration has :
a ) neglected to distribute cop ies of "The Memorandum" to everyone affected ,
hi neglected to guarantee that
the final draft will be made pub li c befo re a final decision is taken ,
c) neglected to schedule the
final decision at a time when
most o f the most Evergreen pop ulation will be present. and most
important of all .
d l NEGLECTED TO INQUIRE
WHETHER THERE IS A WIDE SP READ INTEREST IN HAVING
THE PROCEDURES INSTI TUTED AT ALL
Neither the opinions, no r the
participation of staff. student s
and faculty were solicited for
drawing up these procedures . If
t heir parti c ipation is excluded
fr om the final decisio n-making
process, they are placed under
no obligati on to abide by these
procedures.
The underlying thrust of the

people wh o, at least implicitly ,

or to each o ther. A protest like
th1s wou ld be clearly ineffectual.
Any proced ures for exercis ing the
nght to protest whi ch similarly
renders 11 meffectual, in fact , in l£' rlen~s with the righ t itself .
Pre s1 dent M cC ann 's " Proce dures for Demonstra tions" argues
that a perso n's nght IS mfnnged
upon if s/ he IS made the sub1ect
ol a protest when 11 was no t for
th1s that s l he attended an event.
Nevertheless, if everyo ne has a

protest , therefore , is not an in fnngeme nt o f a right.
McCan n's " Procedures" never theless do consider it an infringe ment of a right. Hen ce, the pro cedures exclude th ose peo ple protesting from the loca tio n of an
event at the time of the event ,
and by prohibi ting the use of a
microphonr the protest does not

reach those to whom it is aimed
at The only option left by the
"' Procedures" is the all -too -famil Iar carrymg of posters and chantmg o f slogans at the doors to an
event. With such a poor option
available it is not surprising that
protests are often a ccused o f be mg "irrational yelling and scream ing" and of totally lack ing in
content.
By rendering the exercise of
protest almost completely inef fectual. the proposed " Procedures
for Demonstrations" undermine
the very right to protest.
l l.) The o ther issue is why pro -

tests occu r at all . Protests are an
obvio us symptom that a group
of people concerned about an is sue have no ot her means available to express their opinions ef fectively . The expression of these
o pinions is particularly important
when they are concerned with
decisi ons whi ch affect everyone.
If people are not allowed to par ticipate effectively in the deciSion -making process, they are
under no circumstances obliged
to abide by these decisions .
The majority of the staff, students and faculty are generally
excluded from the decision-mak ing process at Eve rgreen . This

has been evident in 1 ) the Presi dential Selection process, 2) fund ing for President McCann's leave,
and 3) The Administration has :
a ) neglected to distribute cop ies of "The Memorandum" to everyone affected ,
hi neglected to guarantee that
the final draft will be made pub li c befo re a final decision is taken ,
c) neglected to schedule the
final decision at a time when
most o f the most Evergreen pop ulation will be present. and most
important of all .
d l NEGLECTED TO INQUIRE
WHETHER THERE IS A WIDE SP READ INTEREST IN HAVING
THE PROCEDURES INSTI TUTED AT ALL
Neither the opinions, no r the
participation of staff. student s
and faculty were solicited for
drawing up these procedures . If
t heir parti c ipation is excluded
fr om the final decisio n-making
process, they are placed under
no obligati on to abide by these
procedures.
The underlying thrust of the

is that confrontation is undesir able . w~ . on the contrary, feel

as the novice accu mulates experience
TWIXT TWELVE
AND TWENTY
Kidd Rhythm grew up in the
no rthwest in the 1950's, and even
then he heard special things in
the unpopular popular music that ·
was unavailable to most listen ers:
" One incident in particular
comes to mind . I was attending
Mason Junior High in Tacoma .
During lunch hour the boys cou ld
go into the girls' gym and dance
to the sound that came out of a
small phonograph .
"The high fidelity recordings
were not always danceable or
listenable as far as a few students
were concerned, but that didn 't
seem to upset the dance instru cto rs, who were also the school 's
physical ed . tea chers. I recall a
request for a ballad selection that
made a wallflower out of me by
choice. It was the cover version
of the Flamingo's recording, 'I' ll
Be Home .' The slow number
was performed by the sy mbol
of purity, Pat Boone. He is th e
autho r of Twixt Twelve and
T we.nty. and can cu rrentl y be
seen with his daughters on a TV
com mercial exposing the evils of
acne. Boone attempted to duplicate many a black recording of
the day . The Flamingos were
only one of many R&.B groups
that went unn oticed by ou r
'teachers.'
"Not all the students wanted
to do the fox trot o r two-step
to Nelson Riddle's Orcheot<a , 1ot
alone listen to his milli on-selling
instrumental 'Lisbon Antigua .·
Yes, there were a few of us that
wanted to jump to Little Richard ' s tw o-sided swinger ' Long
Tall Sally' b / w (backed with )
'Siippin' and Slidin'.' W• could
not. roll to the ballads or bop to
the fast selections, bec<tuse if we
did , the 'dance instructors' would
notice."
DULL THUD
R&.B started o ut fairly simply.
with primitive arrangements
whose only general requirements
were dull thuds o n the seco nd
and fourth pulses of th• bar. This
rhythm drove teenagen mad and
sent shivers of fear through their
parents, teachen, and clergymen.
Slightly more adv~nced compositions used three-note rhythmic
figures squeezed into the 5patce
of two beats, c•IIod tripl•ts, and
for awhile in the mid-'SO's just
about every R"-B record sounded
so mething like this : ya-da -da
ya-da- da ya-da-da y•-d•-da

whomp ... lt's got a good beat,
Dick . I give it 48 points.
But the appeal to teenagers
was., no t just the grunt-and-groan
beat . alth o ugh that did give them
an excuse to rub against each
other ritualistica lly . The lyri cs
catalogued the social code of the
day . promoting beliefs, legends,
disbeliefs. and unorthodox dating

patterns ... and the kissing and
hand-holding sung about in those
songs were merely code-wo rds
. fo r sex and similar subversive subjects . But unless the lyri cs
were camouflaged well , a song
had no chance of airplay . whi ch
is why you 've probably never
heard the great "Annie Had A
Baby ."
R&:B a rt ists in the 1950's also
had a hard time gett ing airplay
if they were black . "Just as neighborhoods were segregated," says
Kidd Rhythm . "so was the music. If a white person wanted to
hear black mu sic - well . there

were black stations and white
stations. Th~ same thing went on
in the reco rd shops-the black
music was available on ly in
black n•ighbo rhoods . Whit e
shops had to special-order it."
The relative obscurity of these
groups has driven serious collectors to pay high prices for a particularly procious find . Elli• Lichter of Seattle recently came up
with "Shim-Sham-Shimmy" by
Champion Jack Dup,... on th•
Red Robin label. and • S.•ttl•
record storo offored hor $2,500
for it. Lichter is holding out for
an ~uction . which may boost the
record's price to $5,000. Experts
had assumed, befo~ this record
turn«~ up, that it was virtually
n o n~istent. The other "rarest "

record is "Sto rmy Weather" on
the Jubilee l•bel. with the Five
Sharps performing .
THE FAVES
Kidd Rhythm is well -acq ua inted with the high-priced collecting business, although he does
not get involved with it himself.
He is more interested in keeping
the awareness of the era alive ,
and after listening to tho usands
of the estimated 15,000 different
R&:B groups during that time. he
has come w ith a few person<tl
favo rites :
1. The flAmingos- they 're one
of my favo rite R&:B vocal groups .
I especia lly like their beautiful
harmony .
2. The L~mplighters - a fav o rite of mine . They were on the
Federal label from '53-'56 . I like
the way they could sing a ballad
o r a jump selectio n and still retain their audien ce. 1 especially
like " A Part of Me." with Thurston Harn s on lead .
3 . The Barons - the ones wh o
recorded o n the Imperial label were alwa ys an und e r -rated
gro up ~ c ause they had so little
exposure . They recorded between
'55-'56. I enjoy "Cold Kisses" and
"C rying Fo r You Baby " especially .
4 . Johnny Ace - he wa s my
favorite solo R&B singer to come
out of the 1950's.
Kidd Rhythm re commend s
three things to the beginning stu den t of R&B . First. check up o n
the recent o versized Rolling Stone
lllu str~ted History of Roc k &
Roll , which features many well researched , if moribund. essa ys
on R&B .
T he second thing to do, of
course, is to listen to "What It
Is," Kidd Rhythm 's R&B show
broadcast every Su nda y afternoon from 12 : 30-2 p . m . on
KAOS-FM. at a frequency of
89 .3 . This Sunday . May 1. the
Kidd will feature British R&:B
d uos and groups, including the
very early Rolling Sto nes.
The third and most exciting
R&:B event to happen in a long
time locally is the '59 TRIPLE
TREAT concert featu rin g the
origi nal groups the Wailers, the
Kingsm~n . and Little Bill and the
Blue Notes , all from Tacoma .
The R&.B extravaganza will be
MC'd by none ot her than Kidd
Rhythm himself, and will take
pla ce on Saturda y, June 4. from
8 p .m . to 1 a .m . in the Tacoma
Bicentennial Pavilion .
So there you have it . Rhythm
and Blues, the stuff that drove
teenagers mad in the 1950's .
filled them with throbbing passions ... jungle lust ... cheese
burgers . . ya-da-da
ya-da-da
ya-da -da ya -da-da WHOMP .

as the novice accu mulates experience
TWIXT TWELVE
AND TWENTY
Kidd Rhythm grew up in the
no rthwest in the 1950's, and even
then he heard special things in
the unpopular popular music that ·
was unavailable to most listen ers:
" One incident in particular
comes to mind . I was attending
Mason Junior High in Tacoma .
During lunch hour the boys cou ld
go into the girls' gym and dance
to the sound that came out of a
small phonograph .
"The high fidelity recordings
were not always danceable or
listenable as far as a few students
were concerned, but that didn 't
seem to upset the dance instru cto rs, who were also the school 's
physical ed . tea chers. I recall a
request for a ballad selection that
made a wallflower out of me by
choice. It was the cover version
of the Flamingo's recording, 'I' ll
Be Home .' The slow number
was performed by the sy mbol
of purity, Pat Boone. He is th e
autho r of Twixt Twelve and
T we.nty. and can cu rrentl y be
seen with his daughters on a TV
com mercial exposing the evils of
acne. Boone attempted to duplicate many a black recording of
the day . The Flamingos were
only one of many R&.B groups
that went unn oticed by ou r
'teachers.'
"Not all the students wanted
to do the fox trot o r two-step
to Nelson Riddle's Orcheot<a , 1ot
alone listen to his milli on-selling
instrumental 'Lisbon Antigua .·
Yes, there were a few of us that
wanted to jump to Little Richard ' s tw o-sided swinger ' Long
Tall Sally' b / w (backed with )
'Siippin' and Slidin'.' W• could
not. roll to the ballads or bop to
the fast selections, bec<tuse if we
did , the 'dance instructors' would
notice."
DULL THUD
R&.B started o ut fairly simply.
with primitive arrangements
whose only general requirements
were dull thuds o n the seco nd
and fourth pulses of th• bar. This
rhythm drove teenagen mad and
sent shivers of fear through their
parents, teachen, and clergymen.
Slightly more adv~nced compositions used three-note rhythmic
figures squeezed into the 5patce
of two beats, c•IIod tripl•ts, and
for awhile in the mid-'SO's just
about every R"-B record sounded
so mething like this : ya-da -da
ya-da- da ya-da-da y•-d•-da

whomp ... lt's got a good beat,
Dick . I give it 48 points.
But the appeal to teenagers
was., no t just the grunt-and-groan
beat . alth o ugh that did give them
an excuse to rub against each
other ritualistica lly . The lyri cs
catalogued the social code of the
day . promoting beliefs, legends,
disbeliefs. and unorthodox dating

patterns ... and the kissing and
hand-holding sung about in those
songs were merely code-wo rds
. fo r sex and similar subversive subjects . But unless the lyri cs
were camouflaged well , a song
had no chance of airplay . whi ch
is why you 've probably never
heard the great "Annie Had A
Baby ."
R&:B a rt ists in the 1950's also
had a hard time gett ing airplay
if they were black . "Just as neighborhoods were segregated," says
Kidd Rhythm . "so was the music. If a white person wanted to
hear black mu sic - well . there

were black stations and white
stations. Th~ same thing went on
in the reco rd shops-the black
music was available on ly in
black n•ighbo rhoods . Whit e
shops had to special-order it."
The relative obscurity of these
groups has driven serious collectors to pay high prices for a particularly procious find . Elli• Lichter of Seattle recently came up
with "Shim-Sham-Shimmy" by
Champion Jack Dup,... on th•
Red Robin label. and • S.•ttl•
record storo offored hor $2,500
for it. Lichter is holding out for
an ~uction . which may boost the
record's price to $5,000. Experts
had assumed, befo~ this record
turn«~ up, that it was virtually
n o n~istent. The other "rarest "

record is "Sto rmy Weather" on
the Jubilee l•bel. with the Five
Sharps performing .
THE FAVES
Kidd Rhythm is well -acq ua inted with the high-priced collecting business, although he does
not get involved with it himself.
He is more interested in keeping
the awareness of the era alive ,
and after listening to tho usands
of the estimated 15,000 different
R&:B groups during that time. he
has come w ith a few person<tl
favo rites :
1. The flAmingos- they 're one
of my favo rite R&:B vocal groups .
I especia lly like their beautiful
harmony .
2. The L~mplighters - a fav o rite of mine . They were on the
Federal label from '53-'56 . I like
the way they could sing a ballad
o r a jump selectio n and still retain their audien ce. 1 especially
like " A Part of Me." with Thurston Harn s on lead .
3 . The Barons - the ones wh o
recorded o n the Imperial label were alwa ys an und e r -rated
gro up ~ c ause they had so little
exposure . They recorded between
'55-'56. I enjoy "Cold Kisses" and
"C rying Fo r You Baby " especially .
4 . Johnny Ace - he wa s my
favorite solo R&B singer to come
out of the 1950's.
Kidd Rhythm re commend s
three things to the beginning stu den t of R&B . First. check up o n
the recent o versized Rolling Stone
lllu str~ted History of Roc k &
Roll , which features many well researched , if moribund. essa ys
on R&B .
T he second thing to do, of
course, is to listen to "What It
Is," Kidd Rhythm 's R&B show
broadcast every Su nda y afternoon from 12 : 30-2 p . m . on
KAOS-FM. at a frequency of
89 .3 . This Sunday . May 1. the
Kidd will feature British R&:B
d uos and groups, including the
very early Rolling Sto nes.
The third and most exciting
R&:B event to happen in a long
time locally is the '59 TRIPLE
TREAT concert featu rin g the
origi nal groups the Wailers, the
Kingsm~n . and Little Bill and the
Blue Notes , all from Tacoma .
The R&.B extravaganza will be
MC'd by none ot her than Kidd
Rhythm himself, and will take
pla ce on Saturda y, June 4. from
8 p .m . to 1 a .m . in the Tacoma
Bicentennial Pavilion .
So there you have it . Rhythm
and Blues, the stuff that drove
teenagers mad in the 1950's .
filled them with throbbing passions ... jungle lust ... cheese
burgers . . ya-da-da
ya-da-da
ya-da -da ya -da-da WHOMP .

A Beginner's Guide To The S and A Board
by Brad Pokorny
lot~]'""'""'~~ "''v•~• •~•....1

Fifty-one of the one hundred and
sixty-nine doll~ri · that in -state students
pay fo r tuition every quarter go into the
Service and Activities fund . This money
pays fo r student activities and groups,
such as the Bus System, the Women 's

Center, the Alpine club. and the COOPER
POINT JOURNAl , to name a few .
The S&A Board decides how this money
is spent. Ca ll it a quasi - representati onal
fo rm o f government. The six students who
~ r ve o n the S& A Board were chosen
from a group of volunteers who responded
to a rec ruitment sign in the CAB building
la st fall. Less than ten people showed up
at the meeting .
Each year all student groups funded by
t he S& A fund must d~w up budget pro posals and submit them to the board.
Three weeks ago the board published
a su rvey in the JOURNAL to help decide
how to allocate the $277.612 projected for
next 'year's fund . One hundred twenty - five
pe o ple co mpleted the questionnaires ,
whi ch asked for a numerical value judgment (numbering from one to five) of
whether g rou ps were " not important ," t.o
"of moderate importance," to " indispensa -

bl•." HEAlTH SERVICES TAKES IT
Health Se rvices wa s deemed indis pen sable by 69 percent of the s tudent s ans wer mg the sur vey . O ne co mplica tion IS that
Hea lth Se rvices has not been funded by
S &A before. and some board meinbers
feet it was misleading to include 11 o n thE'
su rvey . The co llege has funded HE'alth
Services in the past . but the <~dministra ­
!1(1n has recently wa rned that this ma y
not continue 1f the legislature cut s the
school's budget as much as is pred icted
Terry Wright , the S &A Boa rd member
who compi lt.>d the results of the survey .

S&A Survey R~sults : a "1" muns "not important," a "3" means "of moderate import~ce ," and a "5" mearu the group is " lndispensible. "
said that a maj o rity of the questionnaires
had messages on them indicating that while
the people s upported Health Servi ces. they
did not think its cos t should be assumed

by S&A .
last Tuesday. April 26. the S& A Boa rd
1ssued a statt>ment that 5 &: A mo nies s hould
not bt> used to fund Health Serv1 ces (The
fu ll text of this sta tement appears on page
3 of this issue .) " Because Evergreen io; far
from any medical center ." the board
wrote , "s tudents need low cos t or free
medical service that IS close and conven ient. " The board fears that if S & A a~; ­
<,umt"S the Healt h Services budget , the col lege is un like ly tu rea!>sume the budget 1n
the future
Steve Francis, the S& A Board member
who drafted most of the sta tement ~a •d .
" In a sense it is a s tatement to the admin istrati o n . By taking a stand now, S tudent
Se rvices [t he budget group that cur rentl y
fund s Health.Services\ will be encouraged

to look more deeply int o their budget ,
knowing that S & A believes 11 s hou ld not
fund Health Services ."
One purpose o f the s tatement IS to take
the pressure off the S & A Board , ~;a id
Francis. " It 's thE' adminiStration 's decJs•on

Dem.o Mem.o: A Dram.a In Three Acts

EXOTIC SURROUNDINGS

I

(

by Kurie Jacobs
Act One
It is February ) , 1977, and The Evergreen S tate Co llege library lobby is filled
with an audience unusual b y Evergreen
sta ndards . They are a well -dressed crowd ,
drawn primarily fro m outside o f the College : Olympia residents . Tumwaterites.
perhaps a stray Centralian, and a few MeCho rd Air Fo rce Base camp-follow~rs. all
eagerly awaiting a rousing perfo nnance
by the Air Fo rce Band . Before the crisply unifonned mu sicians in blue could sound
o ne brassy note. they were upstaged by
a group of 30 Evergreen students, including four grim reapers, pro!esting the
bands ' appe<~rance at the College . The
demonstrators read a statement condemning the Air Force fo r its war-time atrocities, and showed color slid~ of napalmed
babies. Then they retreated into the wings ,
leaving the black-dad reapers behind as a
conti nuo us reminder of what had occurred . The four token represent01tives of the
dead were ousted at half- time by SKurity,
and otherwiSt" the concert proceeded witho ut interruption . By the time the concert
reached its co nclusion , zipping off into
the wild blue yonder to the beat of the
Air Force theme song. the incident remained only an ugly blot in the back of
the audience's collective memory .
Act Two
A return concert of the Air Force Band.
scheduled for April 12, was cancelled ~
cause the threolt of another demonstration

loft Judy Annis, Security Chiof Mac Smith,
and Presid~nt ChariH McCann f.. ling
helplns. They couldn't det~rmin~ what
action could actually be t01ken to dei!l

with such incidents, and they concluded
that wh01t were really needed were guidelines . So. in the grand tradition of The
Ev~!'pftn Stat~ College, the Stato of
W uhin~~ton, and other noble burooucnodn, McCann wrote a memo . This memo,

doted April 15, proposed a number of
procedures to be followed by College- or
CoHege-affiliated groups protesting 01n u -

tivity sponsored by tho College or a College-affiliated group. (Prnumably there is
<~nother wt of rules somewhere that would

rogulato tho activiti., of the AberdomHoquU.m chaptOT of the S.L.A. or the
Unification Church on our campus.) Tho
proposed ruin allow a demonstration to

occur at any time on any campus property , providing that the location is not being
used for any College activity at the time .
For example, 01 protest m<~y occur on the
athletic field , usuming ihat 01 soccer game
is not in progress. A protest mily not take
place in a library building lounge if a temi

nar is underway t~ . A good protnt by
McCann's guidelinft should be p.,.aful ,
should not p~vent the activity tNt is

bemg pro tt><;tt•d from taking place . should
not di ">rup t the event. and should be qu1et
Nl11se - ma km ~ devices , such ao; drums dnd
.-.tt'cl -toed boots o n co ncrete and <1mpl1h
mg devices s uch a s megaph one' are s tn ll·
ly ve rboten .
Act Three
Preside n t McCann asked that responc:,e<.
to the memo and input o n the suggested
procedure be se nt to his ottice by Apnl
27. but due to the vo lume of respon"t'
from st udent s , fa cu lty , and staff , he hJ'i
f''<lended the date for repl y to May 5
One g roup o f students respon ded tr' the
memo with a letter whi ch spe nt severdl
da ys in the C AB building accumulatmg ·
signatures. The letter voiced tw o mam ob jections to the demonstration procedure'>
and elaborated o n them . The students
first po int wa s "Ht !McCann! propose<;
to alter the process of pro test as thou~h
this will not interfere with 1ts nature and
content. " Secondly, they stated. "He ,.,
co ncerned exclusively with o rderl y procedures and completely ignores the quest1on
of wh y pro tests occur in the first pla ce
The letter a ccuses McCann of rendenn~
protest ineffectual and therefore under ·
mimng the right to protest. It a lso cntlCI zes the decision-making process w'h1Ch
the letter co ntends , is a prime mot1vat1on
o f protest .
Presumably , McCann will take the respo nses he rece1ved into accou nt when he
re-drafts the proposal fo r presentation to
the Board of Trustees. If, after a publ iC
hearing , the Board approve-s the procedural guidelin~ . thtoy will be added to the
Evergr~n Administrative Code, 01 th1 ck
volume which h01s rules for regul01ting
everything from puking permits to p~g­
nancy leave-s.
If instituted, the proce<lures for prot~t
m<~y serve to ~ke Ev<rrgr'e'en a liveli~r
pia~ by providing listless stuchnts with
som~thing to ~I against.
