to explore educational goals, money management, and other subjects related to attending the
state's only four-year college. Free and open to the public, the event requires only that
interested persons report to the first floor of the Library by 9 a.m. in order to attend workshops of their choice, which run until noon. Topics include individual contract development,
personal money management, career development and exploration of internship possibilities.
Afternoon A.I.D. activities feature informal discussions from 4 to 7:30 p.m. in Library room
1200 on ways to complete academic degrees. Enrollment Services staff members will be on hand
to explain options for full-time and part-time students wanting to complete their degrees.
They'll also have information available on Evergreen's external credit program, transcript
evaluation and leisure education programs.
Faculty members sponsoring part-time programs will present an Academic Fair from 5:30 to

DTF MEETS TODAY TO REVIEW TRANSCRIPT FEES
Registrar Walker Allen has charged a disappearing task force to review
a policy he has proposed which would institute a $5 fee for reproduction
of student transcripts. The d.t.f, convenes at 1:30 p.m. today in Library
1118, and must complete its work by Dec. 2.
Specific d.t.f. tasks are to: review transcript production procedures;
review proposed budget expenditures; consider and recommend revisions to
procedures or expenditures which "will assure accurate and timely tran_script production as well as overall file integrity."
___
STRIKE POLICY REVIEWED; DTF MAY BE CALLED
Presidential Assistant Les Eldridge met with members of the Strike Policy Advisory group
Nov. 16 to discuss a second draft of the proposed policy and make recommendations following
review of a first draft by the Board of Trustees last week. Eldridge said he will ask
President Dan Evans to formally charge a disappearing task force to review the group's latest
revisions.
The policy, which was the topic of a Nov. 7 forum that attracted only seven participants,
drew criticism from the Evergreen branch of the American Federation of Teachers at the Nov. 10
board meeting. The union objected to the composition of the advisory group, which it felt
"reflected a management bias", and urged creation of a d.t.f. to "work out the differences
which inevitably arise among divergent groups..."
Eldridge said he will recommend that the new d.t.f. be comprised of four faculty members
(two representing the union and two who are not AFT members), four classified staff (one
current or former member of the state employees union) who represent library, custodial, se\l a
four exempt administrators. He pointed out that every means should be explored to give the
campus community a chance to review the policy, but said "we must recognize that collective
bargaining is an adversary relationship where biases are reflected." He said the "eventual (
strike policy will, of necessity, reflect a management bias because it IS a management policy.

ANOTHER TESC TUT TOUR ADDED, AUG. 8
Evergreeners who found tickets to next summer's King Tut exhibit "sold out" recently when
they phoned the Development Office for reservations, will have yet another chance to see the
ancient artifacts, Dennis Peterson, TESC Foundation vice president has announced. The evening
of August 8 has been reserved for Evergreeners and other residents of Southwest Washington to
attend a private showing of the Tut Exhibit at the Seattle Center. Peterson explained that
overwhelming response to an earlier notice has already filled two other nights, July 18 and
25.
As with the two July events, tickets to the August 8 showing provide admission to an advance
lecture slide show by TESC archaeologist Dr. Mark Papworth, who will ha-ve visited Egypt and
gathered artifacts and other materials in June; a buffet dinner on the Evergreen campus; and
round trip bus fare to the exhibit. Tickets are $50 per person, with proceeds to support
scholarships and other educational activities. Reserve your tickets at 866-6565.
DEAN SEARCH GROUP MEETS NOV. 23
The Consultation Group on Academic Dean Selection will assemble Nov. 23 at 11 a.m. in Library 3121. Vice President and Provost Ed Kormondy announced that the group, composed of Faculty Members Betty Estes, Jeff Kelly, Mary Nelson, Le Roi Smith, and Greg Steinke, and Staff
Members Jovana Brown, KrjLs Robinson, and Stone Thomas, will screen applications and interview
finalists for the dean position being vacated by Willie Parson in June. Kormondy says the
screening process should be completed by Dec. 15 so finalists can be interviewed between
Jan. 3 and 13, 1978.
VIETNAM VETS INVITED TO WEEKEND RETREAT
Vietnam veterans are invited to attend a weekend workshop at Fort Warden State Park next
month to "work through any emotional burdens they may still be carrying," according to
Steve Richter, coordinator of the Evergreen Veterans Affiairs Office and sponsor of the
weekend retreat.
Set for Dec. 10 and 11, the workshop will offer a "supportive, community environment" where
Richter says Vietnam veterans can deal with "leftovers from their involvement in the war."
"We've found that the experience of serving in the military is one which doesn't easily
fade," Richter explains. "Many Vietnam veterans find they are still carrying emotional 'leftovers' from that experience
leftovers which can generate a continuing source of tension
and frustration."
Purpose of the workshop is, through small-group interaction and community activities, to
offer participants a chance to evaluate their experiences and "put aside, once and for all,
any troublesome leftovers from the war," Richter says.
Coordinating the sessions will be Bud and Robin Cook, veterans who have extensive experience in individual and group counseling. Bud Cook is currently working in Evergreen's
Veterans Affairs Office; Robin is a psychiatric nurse/supervisor and teacher.
Cost of the two-day retreat is $10, which includes overnight accommodations at the park
near Port Townsend and four meals. Reservations must be made by Nov. 28; fee is due in Richter 's office at Evergreen by Dec. 5.
Complete information is available through Evergreen Veterans Affairs Office, 866-625A or
866-6192 weekdays during regular working hours.

GEODUCKS FACE TWO WEEKEND GAMES
by Andrew Buchman, O.C.R. Sports News Director
After two weeks in athletic limbo, the Evergreen Geoducks found their stride once again
Sunday and beat the Aberdeen Smoke Shop Cafe 4-0. The score tells the story
the bivalves
were relaxed, confident, their passes flitting to and fro despite a chewed-up puddly playing

surface that resembled a miniature golf course with water traps more than it did a soccerfield,
Fullbacks Craig Fisher, Kirk Beeler, and Laird Bauer met the Aberdeen attackers at mid-field
most of the time and repealed them consistently, helping Evergreen goalie Tod Johason get tf
first shut-out of the season for the Geoducks. Meanwhile, the front line made soccer look
easy. John Hitzarth' s header and penalty kick made it 2-0 at the half. Moe Mentutn stayed on
the "ducks™ side, and Scott Render sen and Jac.ques_ Zimiki iced the wet match with striking
one-on-one goals.
Two games are scheduled for this weekend: Saturday at 1 p.m. the Geoducks play a make-up
game with Grays Harbor here. -Sunday at 2 p v m. they take on Saint Martin's in Lacey,

COALITION PRESENTS SOUTH AFRICAN DOCUMENTARY TODAY
In the summer of 1976 Black students marched in Soweto, the sprawling township which houses
Johannesburg, South Africa's Black population, to protest a new requirement that the Afrikaans
language be taught in the schools, and an educational system that spends $15 a year for every
Black child and $300 for each white. The non-violent demonstrations were met by massive police terrorism. Over 200 Blacks were killed. The South African Minister of Justice assured
the world press that "there is no crisis here."
A group of filmmakers sponsored by Thames Television and the World Council of Churches managed to document the demonstrations and police violence, and to speak with Black leaders before they fled or were imprisoned, and then smuggled the film out of South Africa.
The 30-minute film "There is No Crisis" is the result of their efforts. It will be shown
today at noon in Lecture Hall Five. The free showing is sponsored by the Third World Coalition Office.

RELEASE TIME POLICY TO BE STUDIED

c

Administrative Vice President Dean Clabaugh has asked a nine-member ad hoc committee to
meet with him to review the college's informal policy of granting release time to Evergreen
employees who want to take courses or other academic programs for credit. In a memo issued
Nov. 11, Clabaugh asked committee members to review the draft of the current, informal practices followed and "advise me regarding an appropriate policy and procedure for college-wide
use."
The current practice permits permanent full-time employees to appropriate time off as necessary to enroll in job-related programs for one unit per quarter, and permits enrolling for
more than one unit in job-related studies "upon arrangement with supervisor and approval of
their respective vice president." Employees are limited to one unit per quarter for programs
not related to their positions.
Job-related programs are defined as those "determined by the employee's supervisor as having
direct benefit to an employee in carrying out his or her regularly assigned duties or of
duties assigned to a position to which that employee might reasonably aspire."
Named to Clabaugh's ad hoc committee are: Staff members John Aikin, Rita Cooper, Pat
Matheny-White, Donna McMaster, Dan Weiss and Bill Zaugg;Assistant Academic Dean Rob Knapp,
Faculty Member Stephanie Coontz and student Patty May_. The time and date of their meeting
has not yet been set.
SENIORS GIVEN TEST OPPORTUNITIES
Evergreeners approaching graduation are reminded of three upcoming tests that might be of
interest to them. Practice tests for the Graduate Record Exam and the Law School Admissiori
Test will be offered Nov. 23 in Lecture Hall Five. The GRE practice exam begins promptly at
8 a.m. and continues until 12:30 p.m. The LSAT begins at 1 p.m. and runs until 5 p.m. Students must be on time for the tests; no late comers will be admitted.
And, persons interested in obtaining employment with the federal government through the
Professional and Administrative Career Examination (PACE) must file an application by Nov. 30
in order to be examined in January, 1978. The test will not be given again until April. Applications and information are available from the Office of Career Planning and Placement,
Library 1214.
A gloomy warning: out of almost a quarter of a million people who took the test in 1976,
only 9,000 got jobs.
MAKI TO EXHIBIT WORKS IN GALLERY
Robert Maki, Seattle sculptor who was commissioned to craft the "Trapezoid Square" now permanently installed in front of the Communications Building, is the featured artist in an exhibit opening Nov. 21 in the Evergreen Library Gallery. Maki's works will remain on display

NORTH PRESERVES PRINTING ART IN NEW CAMPUS STUDIO
by Rhonda Brooks, College Relations Intern

Preserving the art of hand set printing is an unusual goal in today's world of computer
type setting, laser photography and satellite relays. But, Evergreen graduate Rusty North
is an unusual woman
one who has conquered prejudice in a nearly all-male field, adjusted
to drastic changes in roles required by the sudden death of her husband and the departure of
her five children, and overcome the results of an accident which took her right hand.
Rusty topped them all this fall when she received an internship grant through the Western
Interstate Commission in Higher Education to establish a press shop at Evergreen which provides a new and fascinating opportunity for community graphic artists, writers and printers.
It all started 35 years ago when Rusty began printing at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York. At that time, printing was pretty unheard of as a profession for women,
but Rusty was determined that was what she wanted to do. She hung around the school print
shop, refusing to be denied, until she was finally accepted by the printing students. During World War II she followed her husband, John, to an Army base in Texas. While John went
to war, Rusty pursued a job in printing. Lack of manpower throughout the country gave Rusty
the chance to work in her trade before the war ended. That chance cost her her right hand
in an accident with a large press. When her husband returned from the war and was discharged,
they returned to New York.
25 YEARS DEVOTED TO FAMILY
In Rochester, the Norths opened a photography studio. For the next 25 years, Rusty concentrated on raising their five children and helping her husband in the studio, though she
still managed to pursue her interest in printing. She had been right-handed before the accident and it took months
and considerable determination
before she mastered the art
of setting type again, this time with her left hand. When the children were grown and on
their own, the Norths moved to the Pacific Northwest, settling in Discovery Bay, Washington
where they again opened a photography studio. But in 1974, John died and Rusty found herself
alone, with lots of time and no direction. She visited Evergreen's campus and decided to
complete her college degree.
Rusty first enrolled in the Artist Class academic study program where she was readily accepted by the other students. She soon discovered Evergreen had a hand set press stored in
the Library Building, which had been.donated by the Washington State Printers and the Uni»versity of Washington. Rusty and her fellow students moved the press out of storage and
began organizing all the different letter types. During the next year, Rusty and students
in the Community and Communications study program began operating the "Penny Press" to give
Evergreeners a chance to publish their own written work. Rusty's experience in the craft
made her an invaluable resource to the other student publishers. Several small books were
published including two authored by Rusty: Port Townsend Poems and A Condition of the Senses.
GRANT FUNDS PRINT SET-UP
Rusty graduated from Evergreen last spring. The letter press still badly needed organizing, but the college had no money to fund a position either to organize it or to teach students how to make use of its unique abilities. Rusty applied to the Boulder, Colorado-based
Commission for a grant that provides money to college-trained handicapped persons who want
to pursue innovative jobs in non-profit organizations. She received the grant this fall and
immediately began to set up a small press shop at Evergreen.
The letter press is organized now and ready to produce a 90-page book that identifies its
350 drawers of different letter types. The print studio also has capabilities for exploring basic printing processes, including hand set printing, papermaking, bindery
everything
needed to publish a book, a broadside, or poster. There are also studio facilities for silk
screening, etching, and process photography for printing, for those who complete access
requirements.
Rusty is offering several workshops in hand set printing this quarter. She says it's
easy to learn and offers a flexible and creative approach to printing. "There is nothing
wrong with anything that works as long as it's good craft," she tells her students. "Press

type is only as good as the craftsmanship that goes into it. It is a tool and will take
on whatever aura we give it."
She believes hand set printing is more than a commercial enterprise; it is an art that(
adds a whole new dimension to writing. Printing, she says, gives the writer control of how
the words are placed on paper, and enables her to create pictures with words. Rusty says
hand set printing also gives writers a chance to display their work with a style that
handwritten work often lacks.
The Evergreen print studio is located in the basement of Phase II of the Laboratory,
room 0233. Rusty's available for instruction and assistance on Mondays from 5 to 9 p.m.
and Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10 a^im. to 10 p.m.
Rusty found her niche at Evergreen and now three of her children and her son-in-law are
attending classes this quarter.

ODE TO THE DIRECTOR OF PERSONNEL
by Barbara Maurer, Facilities Secretary

Each month we keep track of the flowing
Of personnels' comings and going
Of residence changes
Or salary ranges
And things the boss wants to be knowing.
In matters of personnel dealings
You can't give in to your feelings
You must remain stoic
And be quite heroic
Amidst all the rockings and reelings.

(

A new item has come to the fore
That makes some employees quite sore
They want pay to cover
The time they work over
Or time off for working before.
Because of an edict congressional
The matter has come to the professional
You get eight hours' pay
No matter how long the day
Though your finances might be recessional.
There are those that this problem won't touch
Who are not in this terrible clutch
Of having high pay
For eight hours a day
And then griping and grousing so much.
I assure you that I'm totally rational
As I make this startling confessional
I'm happy as a clam
To be where I am
Un-executive, un-administrative, un-professional.

in British and American Literature," the course will examine the works of major writers of
the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Complete information on the four-credit-hour course will be offered Nov. 17 at the
Capital High open house by Evergreen Faculty Member Jeffrey Frohner, who has developed the
course in cooperation with Pat Krueger, chairman of Capital's English Department.
The Evergreen study program will feature a series of guest lecturers from TESC's faculty
who will offer their interpretations of literary works and present a variety of approaches to
the study of literature. Capital students who register for the program will earn high school
credit as well as four hours of college credit at Evergreen upon successful completion of
the course.
Information on the program is available from Frohner at 866-6292 or at Capital, 753-8880.
...BUDGET REQUEST SEEKS GYM DESIGN FUNDS, LIBRARY REPAIRS...Evergreen President Dan Evans has
sent a capital budget request of $807,500 to the Office of Financial Management for submittal
to Governor Dixy Lee Ray and the 1978 Special Session of the State Legislature. The request,
formally approved by the trustees at a meeting on campus Nov. 10, calls for $498,800 to
develop outdoor recreation fields; $154,600 to provide design funds for Phase II of the
College Recreation Center (which would include a long-sought gymnasium); $92,000 to renovate

and Nov. 16, beginning at 7:30 p.m. in Lecture Hall Three. Students say their program will
focus on "our personal experiences
what we saw, felt and heard," rather than on the
politics or culture of the U.S.S.R.
Traveling with 86 students as part of a trip organized by the American Institute for
Foreign Study, the Evergreeners spent six mornings a week in intensive language studies but
"still had plenty of time to visit museums and explore areas of personal interest to us,"
student Marcia Levensoji reports. They divided their time equally between Moscow and Leningrad and enjoyed weekend trips to Tallin, the capital of Estonia, and Kiev, the capital of
Ukraine. But, the highlight of the trip for the young travelers was "the chance to talk to
Russians and get to know them," Levenson says.
...FAMOUS TURKEY TROT SET NOV. 19...All would-be turkey winners are urged to don their
traveling shoes and wobble on down to Evergreen Saturday morning (Nov. 19) for the Sixth

CAPITAL BUDGET REQUEST GOES TO OFM
Following telephonic approval by the Board of Trustees, President Dan Evans has sent
a capital budget request of $807,500 to the Office of Financial Management for submittal to
Governor Dixy Lee Ray and the 1978 Special Session of the State Legislature.
The request, formally approved by the trustees at a meeting on campus yesterday, calls
for $498,800 to develop outdoor recreation fields; $154,600 to provide design funds for
Phase II of the College Recreation Center (which would include a long-sought gymnasium);
$92,000 to renovate and repair the Library Building, and $62,100 for minor remodeling in
the library.
Library " renovation and repair" includes work on the Set and Model Shop in the library
basement to provide a dust-tight light fixture, complete sawdust collecting system and filters for a room exhaust system, plus reroofing of a major portion of the ever-leaking library roof. Remodeling efforts include a new sound recording listening facility and shelving
and cabinets to meet storage needs for reference materials.
The gymnasium includes a full-size court, space for martial arts, mat activities
and locker room expansion, plus remodeling of existing facilities to bring them into compliance with Title IX (equal facilities for men and women) regulations. Total cost for completion of the building (not requested in this round) is approximately $2,901,500.
The budget request also seeks funds to develop an existing 9.5-acre cleared area for
a soccer/football field and Softball field. Phase II of the proposal, not sought now, would
require funds for a 400-meter track, field event facilities, restrooms and storage buildings
and bleachers.
If the request is approved by the Offical of Financial Management and the governor, it
becomes a part of her total capital request to the State Legislature set to convene sometime after Feb. 15.
DEANS FINALIZE 1978-79 ACADEMIC OFFERINGS
by Rhonda Brooks, Office of College Relations intern

Programs for the 1978-79 academic year have been finalized. Assistant Academic Dean
Rob Knapp thinks the results are quite "respectable" considering the "arduous, often ambiguous
and frustrating, always short-of-time" planning process it went through. He believes, however, that the curriculum is "decently balanced and speaks to most of the pressing needs."
Annual programs for next year include: "The Etruscans," "Country Music," and "Visual
Anthropology." An intensive study of France, its culture, language, history and literature
will be offered in "Charlemagne to Chagal"; and "World Politics" will be studied in an outreach program offered at Fort Lewis.
Twelve basic programs are planned, including: "Perceptions," "The Character," "Outdoor
Education," "Sociobiology," "Origins of Life", and "Intelligence, Poetry and the Natural
Universe," "The Search for Universals," "Making Changes," "Ajax Compact," "Life and Health,"
and "Love in the Western World." "Overcoming Math and Writing Anxieties" will also be offered
as a skills development program in writing and maths for part-time students.
A NUMBER OF REPEATS IN ENVIRONMENTAL STUDIES
In the Advanced Specialty areas where Knapp says "consistency and predictability are
the main goals," the Environmental Studies program will continue a number of this year's
programs, including "Nature of Natural History," "Environmental Design," and "Alternative
Energy Systems." "As You Sow: A study of the small farm," is a two-quarter program planned

to examine aspects of farming at the Organic Farm on campus.
For those who want to learn important things about today by studying the past, European
and American Studies area is offering an advanced program called "Elizabethan Studies" where
students will study the literature, psychology and history of that era. Faculty coordinator
Leo Daugherty promises "a serious, intense study" of that age. Also offered in European aT
American studies are: "Mythic Cycle," and "Politics, Values and Social Change."
Nine programs are planned in Expressive Arts: "Collaborative Arts," "Sonic Design,"
"Motion Picture," "Studio Project," "Shadows," "Camera Work," and a theater group contract.
A special program called "Images in Sequence," will focus on techniques and problems of
making photo essays, slide/tape shows
anything where a series of images are shown in a
sequence.
TWO AREAS COMBINED
Two Advanced Specialty areas have been combined: Human Development in its Social Context
and Individual and Community Health. The programs offered under these combined areas are:
"Social Structure," "Family Life and Females Roles," "Verbal and Non-Verbal Therapies," "The
Dynamics of Change," "Life Span Development"and "Nutrition." Also offered is "Develonment:
The Aim of Education," which will study developmental psychology and the concepts of developmental teaching. As a practicum, students will teach younger children off campus or organize
a module for students on campus.
The business area, Management and the Public Interest, plans a program by that title and
also: "Administrative Cases" and "Public Administration." A new program in this area is
"Big Decisions," where four types of political and managerial decisions will be studied, including former Governor Dan Evans' decision to create the Department of Social and Health
Services, courtroom findings, corporate decisions, and rulings on juvenile defenders.
The Marine Science and Crafts area is offering a program called "Salmon," to study the
political, social, economic and environmental aspects of the Puget Sound fishing controversy.
Also offered in this area will be "Resources Inventory of Puget Sound,"
Northwest Native American Studies area is continuing "A Separate Reality" under a new
title, "Symbolization: The Emerging Individual." Faculty Anthropologist Lynn Patterson will
offer "Uses of the Past" in this area, too.
Political Economy offerings feature "Introduction to Political Economy," "Class, Stati_(
and Social Change," "Paradigms in Crisis," "Cuba: Studies in Social Transformation," and
"Intermediate Economics." A "Labor Studies" program is also planned in this group to provide
instruction in labor history and labor-management relations.
NEW SPECIALITY BORN
A new, as yet unnamed specialty area, emphasizing natural science, includes: "Matter and
Motion," "Biochemistry and Biological Molecules," and "Photosynthesis." Also planned is
"Introduction to Natural Science," designed for serious beginning students who want to study
physics, chemistry and biology at the introductory level. The program requires no previous
science background, but college level reading and writing skills are
expected. This new ar
"will gather together the strong science programs of the past years," says Knapp. Science
studies are "quickly becoming a very strong area at Evergreen," he asserts.
A few holes still linger in the curriculum, and Knapp, fellow deans, faculty and staff
will be working on them right until Fall Quarter, 1978 to "make sure we're able to respond to
changing student needs," he declares.
NAME THE SUPPLEMENT
The "Catalog Supplement" as an Evergreen tradition is about to
undergo a name change. Some folks feel the title doesn't apply to
its contents much, especially since there is no Evergreen "Catalog;"
we call it the "Bulletin." Suggestions so far are heavily in favor
of renaming the annual publication "Academic Program Schedule," More
suggestions are sought before Dec. 1. Drop them in the mail to the
Office of College Relations, Library 3114. This time we'd like a
name we can stick with
and one that needs no explanation.
Suggest now or forever hold your tongue.

UNSOELD IN DEMAND AS ADVISOR
Dr. Willi Unsoeld, Evergreen philosopher, mountaineer and faculty member, has just returned from a double round of national and international level meetings on the environment
and the future of liberal arts education
and he's preparing for yet another round later
this, month on related subjects.
Dr. Unsoeld was one of six scientists and humanists invited to share his views on clean
air and national parks Oct. 14 and 15 in Carmel, California. Held at the home of renowned
landscape photographer Ansel Adams, the conference was sponsored by the National Parks Service. Dialogue and recommendations made by the six experts will be published for distribution in advance of public hearings on new laws calling for cleaner air standards in U.S.
Parks.
Oct. 27 through 30 Dr. Unsoeld was one of seven men and women chosen to consider the
future of liberal arts education. Convened by Educational Futures International, based in
Santa Barbara, Unsoeld discussed Evergreen's unique interdisciplinary approach to teaching
the liberal arts. And, he says, "Evergreen's record and philosophy was hailed" by the other
guests
college presidents, sociologists, one Islamic studies specialist, and even a British Broadcasting Corporation official presently teaching in the U.S. Dr. Unsoeld's work
will be included in a published position paper on educational futures, slated for national
circulation.
In up-coming travels, Dr. Unsoeld will be called on to share his wealth of experience in
mountain climbing and the wilderness. In a series of talks at the University of CaliforniaSan Diego and San Diego State College Nov. 18 and 19, he will
consciousness and what Evergreen has learned about teaching outdoor education. His briefings
will prepare wilderness program staffs
all students
to teach spring classes. Dr.
Unsoeld taught the wilderness and consciousness program at Evergreen four year ago. And,
Nov. 20-23, Dr. Unsoeld will be one of four conveners at the Experiential Education Conference, sponsored by the Association of the same name, in Monterey, California. At panels
and discussion sessions, Dr. Unsoeld will exchange views on how people learn experientially.
VOLUNTEERS FOR LIBRARY REVIEW GROUP SOUGHT
Provost £d Kormondv is seeking faculty, staff and students interested in serving on a
group charged with conducting a review of Evergreen's Library Services. He says the review
process will get underway next month and will be the first comprehensive review since 1973.

Traveling with 86 students as part of a trip organized by the American Institute for Foreign Study, the Evergreeners spent six mornings a week in intensive language studies but
"still had plenty of time to visit museums and explore areas of personal interest to us,"
student Marcia Levenson reports. They divided their time equally between Moscow and Leningrad, and enjoyed weekend trips to Tallin, the capital of Estonia, and Kiev, the capital of
Ukraine. But the highlight of the trip for the young travelers was "the chance to talk to
Russians and get to know them," Levenson says.
"We found our preparation at Evergreen prepared us very well for conversation with Russians," she adds. "Our Russian language teachers said we were better prepared than most
other students
both in terms of our ability to speak conversationally and, through our
year-long studies, to understand what we were seeing."
Presenting the program with Levenson will be students Elena Guilfoil, Cathy Young and
Janice King. They warmly invite you to join them.
TURKEYS COME TROTTING NOV. 19
Strike up the band! Call out the guard! Put on your traveling shoes and wobble on down
Saturday morning (Nov. 19) at 10 o'clock for Evergreen's Sixth Annual Turkey Trot. It's

entry fee goes to buy the awards: a turkey for the top trotter in each division, a chicken
for second, a cornish game hen to third, and an even dozen eggs to doughty fourths. The

first three overall placers in men's and in woman's divisions will be awarded certificates.
And, all finishers will receive survivors ribbons.
The flat, 2.4-mile course starts at the Library, runs down the Evergreen Parkway to
Kaiser Road and back. Registration begins at 9 a.m. About 50 people showed last year for
the popular event, co-sponsored by Olympia Rainrunners, Olympia YMCA, Olympia Parks and Recreation, Thurston County Parks and Recreation, and the Evergreen Running Club.

Clinic, Parents Anonymous, Legal Aid, Alanon, Alateen, St. Peter's Auxiliary, and numerous
services provided by Evergreen.
Fair guests will also be invited to enjoy a tour of Evergreen's educational and recreational facilities.
NOVEMBER PERSONNEL MEETING CANCELLED
Due to a combination of the Thanksgiving Holidays and Higher Education Personnel Board
meetings this month, there will not be a Classified Staff Meeting during November. The
next meeting is scheduled for Dec. 9, at 3:30 in Lecture Hall Three, when Diann Youngquist
of the HEPB will answer questions about their new regulations.
CO-OP NAMES FIVE TO EVALUATION EFFORT
Four Evergreen alumni now on the college staff and one student have been hired to work
on three phases of the Office of Cooperative Education's evaluation project funded by a
$29,000 grant from the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare.

Cooley. "We saw the opportunity to combine the different abilities people had and produce
better results."
Former Director of External Credit Maureen Karras will write a handbook for field supervisors; Program Secretary Mary Berghammer and Secretary Randy Gulden will work to re-activate and possibly expand non-credit volunteer opportunities through Co-Op; and Program
Assistant Andrew Buchman is working with student Terry Porter to evaluate Co-Op's publications.

WOMEN'S SOCCER CONCENTRATING ON "WINNING TACTICS"
by Andrew Buchman, O.C.R. Sports News Director
Women's soccer at Evergreen is alive and growing, with twenty-some hoofers turning out

regularly at practices Wednesday and Friday afternoons and Saturday mornings, in preparation for spring league play in the Washington State Women's Soccer Association.
Player/coaches Lisa Oakley and Martina Guilfoil will be attending a special coaching
clinic taught by Seattle Sounders player/coach Jimmy Gabriel this week and next at St.
tin's. They're hoping to increase their knowledge in team tactics.
"Fall Quarter we've been concentrating on developing individual skills. There's been a
definite improvement since school started," says Guilfoil. "Winter Quarter we're going to
be working on team skills and tactics: winning tactics."
"We'll be accepting new players up to the end of January," adds the rugged center half
back. She can be reached at practices or through the Recreation Office (866-6530).
Also returning from last year's team is California forward Amanda Sargent, half back
Gwyneth Runnings, and full back Jean Hudson of San Juan Island.
Meanwhile, the Geoduck men's soccer team postponed last Sunday's game with Grays Harbor
College until the end of the season because no referees showed up. This Sunday at 2:00 p.m.
they meet Aberdeen's Smoke Shop on the campus playfield.

programmer in Computer Services; Robert King and John Rouse, media maintenance technician
in the library; Joy Christensen, secretary in academics; Donna Carnahan, secretary in the
Office of State College and University Presidents; Alex Voip, formerly a temporary custodian
named Nov. 1 to a permanent post; Lupe Smith, secretary in Upward Bound, and Debby Ramsey,
scientific stores attendant joining the staff Nov. 18.

...Two former Evergreeners have returned: Craig Hickman is back in Photo Services as

...Faculty Members Ron Woodbury and Nancy Alleii participated in a panel discussion on
team teaching at the Association of General and Liberal Studies annual conference in Ogden,
Utah Oct. 28. The two report they learned "how far ahead Evergreen is with its team teachr
ing," which, if done at all in other institutions, is usually done within traditional departments, not within an interdisciplinary context.
...And, Faculty Member E. Jackson Webb has been invited to participate as a grader of
Scholastic Aptitude Tests Dec. 6-12 in New Jersey.
COUNSELING OPEN MONDAY THROUGH THURSDAY
Evergreen's recently reorganized Counseling Center, headquartered in Library 3223, is

legislative memo, volume III, No. 23
INITIATIVE 345 PASSES
EXTENT OF IMPACT AS YET UNCERTAIN
By Les Eldridge, Assistant to the President
At this writing, the morning after election day, it is difficult to assess the full impact of the passage of the initiative to remove sales tax from food. It could result in
agency budget cuts before the end of this fiscal year, or in more severe cuts during the
following year. Its impact could be lessened if the Legislature, in 1978, opts to increase
other taxes and finds new revenue sources to replace the taxes which the initiative removed.
This will not be easy for the Legislature to accomplish as 1978 is an election year for the
House and half of the Senate.
The fate of Initiative 348, repealing the variable gas tax, may determine the actions of
some legislators toward the quandary caused by the passage of 345, and, as we went to press,
the passage of 348 is too close to call.
NEW FACES IN LEGISLATIVE RACES
The scattering of other legislative races around the state will have a more indirect but
nonetheless important effect on Evergreen. Eleanor Lee, Republican Representative from
Burien won her race for the Senate in the 33rd District. Senator Lee is the first member
of that body to have graduated from Evergreen. Democrat Senator Carol Monohon of Raymond
may have been
defeated by J.T. Quigg, Jr., the first Republican from the 19th District
in many years. Democratic Rep. John Erak, also from the Grays Harbor district, won reelec-

8
tion. Sen. Lorraine Wojahn lost a close race for Mayor of Tacoma and will remain in the
Senate. Rep. Paul Conner, a long time legislator from Sequim, was elected to the Senate
seat vacated by Gordon Sandison when he accepted the post of Fisheries-Director last spring.
Dianne Woody, widow of the late Senator from the 39th District in Eastern Snohomish and s
Northeastern King County, was elected to fill her husband' seat. More new faces will appl
in the Legislature as a result of these elections. Vacancies in the House of Representatives
are now present in the 24th District, for Representative Conner's old seat and in the 33rd
for Eleanor Lee's empty seat.
An important and complex game of musical chairs will commence with the election of Senator
Gary Grant to the King County Council. Grant, from the llth District, which includes Kent
and Renton.most likely will be succeeded by Representative Bud Shinpoch, Chairman of the
House Appropriations Committee. If Shinpoch moves to the Senate, not only will a replacement
be appointed, but his vacant Appropriations chairmanship, a key position in the House, will
attract a number of House candidates and possibly cause a reorganization of the House Committee structure. There has been some talk of recombining the Revenue and the Appropriations
Committee under a Ways and Means Committee chairman.
INTERIM CALENDAR CONSIDERATIONS
The interim calendar for both House and Senate has slowed considerably this Fall. There
was no legislative weekend during November for either house and it is not yet certain whether
there will be a December committee weekend. The question of student control of service and
activity fees continues to catch the attention of the House Higher Education Committee.
Another Higher education subcommittee recently heard testimony on tuition reciprocity among
higher education institutions in Oregon and Washington counties in the Vancouver/Portland
area. The Council for Postsecondary Education recommended reciprocity between Portland
State University and Washington's four-year college and university programs in the Vancouver
area, which would include Evergreen. The House Higher Education Committee will also consider
University of Washington admissions policies on Nov. 21 in Seattle. And, the Collective Bargaining Subcommittee of the House Labor Committee was scheduled yesterday to hear testimony
on the Senate's amendment of House Bill 59, the faculty collective bargaining bill.

INDIVIDUAL CONTRACT SUBJECT OF NOV. 17 DISCUSSION
A panel discussion on the subject of Individual Contracts will be held Nov. 17 from 3:30
to 5 p.m. on the first floor of the Library. The discussion offers Evergreeners a chance to
hear questions raised on proposed policy changes affecting individual contracts and to present their own views. All interested faculty, staff and students are urged to attend the
session.
More information on the proposed policy change is available in the Nov. 10 issue of the
Cooper Point Journal and in the Nov. 7 memo on the subject written by Assistant Academic
Dean Bill Winden.
EVERGREEN TO OFFER PROGRAM AT CAPITAL
Evergreen will offer a part-time studies program at Capital High School in Olympia
Winter Quarter. Entitled "Yorkshire to Yonkers: Studies in British and American Literature,
the course will examine the works of major writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries.
Complete information on the one-unit program will be offered Nov. 17 at the Capital High
open house by Evergreen Faculty Member Jeffrey Frohner, who has developed the course in cooperation with Pat Krueger, chairman of Capital's English Department.
The Evergreen study program will feature a series of guest lecturers from TESC's faculty
who will offer their interpretations of literary works and present a variety of approaches
to the study of literature. Capital students who register for the program will earn high
school credit as well as four hours of college credit at Evergreen upon successful com- \n
Information on the program is available from Frohner at 866-6292.

...REGISTRAR OFFERS FALL STUDENT PROFILE...The vast majority of Evergreen's Fall Quarter
enrollment hails from Southwest Washington; the median student age is 23; ten more women
are enrolled than men students; and more than 24 percent of current students are 30 years
of age or older.
The statistics, offered this week by Registrar Walker Allen, show 2,544 persons are
attending Evergreen; 1,267 men and 1,277 women. Of those 613 are 30 years of age or older,
with the largest number (326) between 35 and 39 years old. Only one student is over 60
years old, and the median age, 23, is almost exactly the same as that for last Fall Quarter.
Full-time students total 2,070, part-time 474; in-staters number 2,041, out-of-staters
503. Not included in total figures are 63 auditors, nearly double the number of those who
last year chose to attend classes without earning academic credit.
Some 57 percent of the fall enrollment hails from Southwest Washington (that percentage
would jump to 71 if King County were included). Southwest Counties and their student enrollees include: Thurston, 957; Pierce, 205; Clark, 86; Mason, 65; Lewis, 37; Kitsap, 35;
Greys Harbor, 33; Jefferson, 13; Clallam, 11; Pacific, 8; Cowlitz, 2; Skamania, 1; Wahkiakum,

...COMPUTER SERVICES HONORED AS "EXEMPLARY"...Evergreen's Office of Computer Services is one
of 106 operations within educational institutions from throughout the United States selected
as an outstanding example of how to use computers for teaching and learning. The selection
vas part of a research project sponsored by the National Science Foundation and conducted by
the Human Resources Research Organization of Alexandria, Virginia.
Computer Services Director Dr. John Aikin says more than 7,000 agencies, institutions and
individuals were surveyed to obtain a sample of 370 successful cases of academic use of computers. From this sample, 106 "exemplars" were selected for their excellence in a variety of
areas. Evergreen's operation was chosen for its student accomplishments with computers, its
spectrum of computer applications to learning and teaching, its computer literacy programs
for students, faculty or community, and its outreach to community and to other institutions.
...KAOS PLANS TEN-DAY MARATHON...Radio station KAOS FM kicks off a ten-day marathon Nov. 11,
one of two such events ever held to raise dollars and talent needed to keep the Olympia-area
public service station alive and well.
Broadcasting 24 hours a day on weekends, and "as long on weekdays
as we continue to
raise money," Station Manager Toni C. Holm says the marathon will feature comedy, interviews with local personalities, trivia contests, and many "bizarre surprises," as well as a
long list of regional "all-stars and disco celebrities" who will produce their own music
shows.
Interspersed with these special events will be the auctioning off and giving away of
items donated by local businesses and community groups, including the Olympia Brewing Company,
Hibberd and Cole, Meredith's Hallmark, Archibald Sisters, Pat's Bookery, Barnes' Floral, and
local restaurants, theaters, record stores and others.
KAOS can be found at 89.3 on FM radio dials, at The Evergreen State College Activities
Building, and by phone at 866-KAOS.
...SMALL BUSINESS TAX SEMINAR NOV. 11...The Internal Revenue Service, in conjunction with
hree Washington State Agencies, will host a "Small Business Persons Tax Seminar" at Evergreen Nov. 11 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Lecture Hall Five. The free, day-long meeting will
focus on employment taxes of all types, estimated taxes for self-employed persons, and
Washington State sales and use taxes.

DEANS FINALIZING CURRICULUM:

FEWER ANNUALS, POSSIBLY MORE SPECIALTIES

With responses to the "Trial Balloon" in, the academic deans are busy finalizing programs
for the 1978/79 Catalog Supplement. Assistant Academic Dean Rob Knapp says the curriculum
planning process has continued last year's planning efforts, and has emphasized "consistency
and predictability" for the 1978/79 curriculum.
Keys to that predictability are the Advanced Specialty Programs which Knapp says provide
students "a more specific approach to study, in an interdisciplinary way, their defined areas
of interest over an extended period of time." The nine specialty areas are:
Environmental
Studies, Northwest Native American Studies, Management and the Public Interest, Marine Science
Science and Crafts, European and American Studies, Human Development in its Social Context,
Individual and Community Health, Expressive Arts, and Political Economy. A tenth area,tentatively called Natural Philosophy and centered in the natural sciences, has been proposed
for next year as well. Its fate will be decided during the coming week. Four to eight
programs within each of the specialty areas have been accepted.
Fewer Annual Programs were accepted for next year's curriculum, he says. These programs
are usually offered for one year to respond to temporary needs of students, to allow an
"experimental factor to be included in the curriculum," or to provide special opportunities.
But ten Basic Programs have been approved, and Knapp says he hopes the Supplement will provide a "clear idea" of what these programs entail for prospective students. Basic Programs
are designed to help first-year students adjust to college and to expose them to various
academic disciplines.
Two student-initiated programs have been incorporated in next year's curriculum:
Decentralization as a Form of Social Organization, and Verbal and Non-Verbal Therapy.
Knapp notes student input in the curriulum planning process was scant this year, with only
ten percent of the student, body offering critiques or suggestions. He attributes the low
student participation to the "late start of the Trial Balloon" and to the "difficulty of
thinking about next year's programs, when most of us are so involved with our current
studies." But, he's grateful for the input he did receive and says it "was very helpful
for making program decisions."
Only 80% of the faculty is committed in programs at this point. Knapp promises "there
is still room for three or four more student initiated programs or special needs that arise
between now and next fall if good, workable proposals come along." Knapp expects more in
individual contract opportunities will also be available for next year's students.
Complete details on the 1977/78 curriculum should be available in next week's Newsletter.
TRUSTEES TO CONVENE NOV. 10
Evergreen's Trustees meet Nov. 10 at 10:30 a.m. in Library 3112 to take formal action
on the college's 1977 capital budget request to the 1978 special session of the State
Legislature. The morning meeting will also hear recommendations by Business Manager Ken
Winkley for use of the $15 late registration fee, an update on the Strike Contingency Plan
by Presidential Assistant Les Eldridge, and a report on the Alaska study program undertaken
'-iy eight Evergreen students last summer under contract with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Project Director Jack Van Valkenburgh and Faculty Member Oscar Soule will deliver
the presentation with assistance from other members of the three-month expedition to the
Alaskan Peninsula.

STUDENTS SELECT ORGANIZATION PROPOSAL
by Steve Francis, volunteer reporter
There's a student organization in the making. On the drawing table are two proposals
to form an organization or organizing mechnism that will enable students to take advantage
of the right they do have
the right to effectively influence decisions that they are
affected by and are interested in.
During the past few weeks a group of 15 students has been taking steps to insure that
the ideals as set down in the Evergreen Governance document (COG III, which was approved
by the Board of Trustees at its last meeting) are followed: "Decisions must be made only
after consultation and coordination with students, faculty, and staff who are both affected
by and interested in the issues except on those rare occasions in which circumstances do
not allow formal consultation with those to be affected."
The 15 students working on the proposals feel that lack of: communication, consolidated
organization around specific issues, and knowledge and information as to where and how to
plug into 'the bureaucracy,' prohibit the realization of COG Ill's goals. The group decided
to adopt one of the proposals and use it as a foundation upon which to begin building an
organization.
The accepted proposal is designed to "facilitate direct student involvement in all aspects of Evergreen decision-making affecting students, both on an institutional level and
in academic programs" by actively supporting "specific interests of students as a group."
Central to the purpose is "to work towards eliminating antagonistic power relationships
between students, faculty, staff, and administration." The proposal also says "any student
who agrees with these purposes may be a member. Membership is established by signing a
membership list."
This proposal is still in the forming stages and there is room for participation by all
who are interested. The proposals are available in front of the Information Center. Please
pick one up and if you have questions come to CAB 305 and talk with students Rob Fellows and

Steve Francis. Watch for news of the next organizational meeting and plan to attend.
Times and places will be advertised in the CAB.
"CHANGING WOMEN" GROUP FORMED
Women who are resuming their educations
or considering doing so
after a period
away from the classroom are invited to participate in an "on-going group experience" being
formed by the Evergreen Counseling and Women's Centers.
Coordinated by Counseling coordinator Kathy McKinnon, Women's Center co-coordinator Chelle
Roberts and Ajax student Diane Winslow, the group will meet Monday evenings this quarter~at
7 o'clock in the coffee house on the first floor of the College Activities Building.
Focus of the Monday discussions will be personal exploration and support, readings, experience sharings, films and "values clarification games." Women from Evergreen and the
community will be on hand to share successes, failures and insights open to women in the
world of work.
"We're hoping to help women work through the problems of returning to school, balancing
school and family responsibilities and figuring out what they want to do," McKinnon explains.
"We'd likfe to offer comfort to women who are changing roles and help them examine what they
like to do and what they would most likely do well."
Women wanting more information on the new group are invited to attend the first session
Nov. 7 or call McKinnon (866-6151) or Roberts (866-6162) weekdays.
COMPUTER SERVICES HONORED AS "EXEMPLARY"
Evergreen's Office of Computer Services is one of 106 operations within educational
institutions from throughout the United States selected as an outstanding example of how
to use computers for teaching and learning. The selection was part of a research project
sponsored by the National Science Foundation and conducted by the Human Resources Research
Organization of Alexandria, Virginia.
Computer Services Director John Aikin says more than 7,000 agencies, institutions and
individuals were surveyed to obtain a sample of 370 successful cases of academic use of
computers. From this sample, 106 "exemplars" were selected for their excellence in a variety
of areas. Evergreen's operation was chosen for its student accomplishments with computers,
its spectrum of computer applications to learning and teaching, its computer literacy programs for students, faculty or community, and its outseach to community and to other
institutions.
The NSF research project was undertaken to produce information that would help adminirstrators and faculty members decide on the scope, nature and magnitude of computer facilities
that would most benefit their students and their institutions, and to help federal, state and
local planners decide whether and what computer-based innovations might be productive for
particular educational settings and goals.
The project directors are, publishing an "Academic Computing Directory" offering detailed
inforaation on each of the cases selected, and are hoping the directory will make possible
an increased exchange of information on current academic computing in American schools and
colleges.
EVERGREEN DOUBLES UNITED WAY CONTRIBUTIONS
Thanks to the efforts of Personnel Director Rita Cooper and Faculty Member Chuck Nisbet
—
and to the generous hearts of campus employees
Evergreen has doubled the contributions to the 1977 United Way Drive. As of Nov. 1, more than 110 employees had pledged approximately $4,000 to the annual community fund-raising effort, compared to $2,000 donated
last year by 43 employees.
Cooper says some 96 employees responded to the 300 questionnaires she sent seeking a
better understanding of reasons persons support or don't support the United Way effort.
Among those who don't contribute, she says, many complained it was "a big turn-off" to be
told what their "fair share" was, while others felt they lacked "accurate information."

Still others wrote there was "too much pressure to donate," and that they felt they should
be able to designate which specific agencies they wanted to support.
Cooper will be distributing a complete report on the questionnaire soon. In the meantimes, she and Nisbet are hoping to complete Evergreen's United Way drive by the end of the .
day.

KAOS PLANNING MARATHON, POLISHING SERVICE EFFORT
by Carolyn M. Byerly, O.C.R. Editor
The name may spell KAOS, but the service is a well-orchestrated effort that aims to
serve public interest of communities in Olympia and other areas of Thurston and Mason
counties. And, Nov. 11-20, Olympia's newest station is reaching out once again to its
communities with a program marathon that hopes to raise both dollar and other local support from those it serves.
KAOS is based at Evergreen and can be found at 89.3 on FM dials every day (and night),
all year long. Anyone who tunes in will find programs during broadcast hours as diverse
as the people who make them happen and who, inevitably, sit among the listening audiences.
One-of only two non-commercial stations in Washington State (the other is KRAB in Seattle),
KAOS operates solely in response to community interest and needs. Partially funded by
student fees (not state monies), KAOS exists on a modest $30,000 per year budget that relies
heavily on contributions of time and money, raised during two semi-annual marathons (such
as the one in progress) and at other times during the year.
"NO SPONSORS AN ADVANTAGE"
State Manager Toni C^_ Holm, a senior studying radio communications, believes having no
commercial sponsors to serve is an advantage. "It permits KAOS to present lots of different
viewpoints, and to provide true community access for non-profit groups and individuals with
information or entertainment they want on the air," she says. In these ways KAOS fulfills
its community service function.
/
Holm is one of five paid KAOS staffers. The other 50-60 people involved in putting
KAOS on the air each year are volunteers between the ages of 16 and 60, from all walks of
life, and many areas of Puget Sound.
In addition to allowing a diversity of programs and personalities to come alive on the
,air, being non-commercial also has another advantage
more time to work with. For
instance, KAOS has been known to broadcast whole public hearing on critical issues such as
the siting of the Satsop nuclear plant, as well as live debates or lectures on campus and
off.
One annual event even relocates the entire radio station to the Thurston County Fair
Grounds. This in-depth coverage of the August county fair is the most dramatic length
KAOS goes to in giving coverage to a local event, according to KAOS Business Manager Dave
Rauh. Yet Rauh, a third-year student from Cincinnati, feels broadcasts like this one put
the station out where it aims to be, with the people, in the community.
REAL COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
KAOS' track record of incorporating community folks into its operations shows good
mileage. Through a regular KAOS service, the giving of free workshops through Evergreen's
Leisure Ed program, anyone with the interest can learn to try their hand at working in
_ _ Hyslop, a recent arrival from North Carolina, became an active participant in this
way. A few short months ago she wanted to "branch out from her office job with the State."
She found the KAOS workshop in radio appealing, registered, and soon learned to produce her
own interview programs, such as the one with all four Olympia mayoral candidates just before
the September primary. She says, "I discovered a knack for news I never knew I had." As a
result, she was recently selected to fill one of the volunteer news director positions, and
has enrolled as an Evergreen student. Hyslop has begun, she believes, a new and creative ,
career in the broadcast world.
KAOS will seek others like Judy Hyslop during its Nov. 11-20 marathon of programs.
Other highlights of the marathon include call-ins, comedy, opera, local personalities
(such as Evergreen graduate and Thurston County Commissioner Marj Yung and Mrs. Martha
Davis of Davis' Brown Derby), a trivia contest, an auction of donated items, giveaways
of merchandise provided by local businesses, and, of course, requests for dollars and cents.

TEXAS STEEL GUITARIST TO PERFORM

GEODUCKS LOSE TO SOUTH OLYMPIA
by Andrew Buchman, O.C.R. Sports News Director
"Nobody felt bad afterwards, 'cause it was the best we played all quarter," Team Manager Kirk Beeler said softly. The Geoduck soccer squad lost 2 to 1 to league-leading
South Olympia on a windy, cold damp Sunday miserable for anything else but soccer.
The field was a sponge. Everybody was covered with mud by the end of a rough, physical
game marked by determined defense and two tiny "lapses of communication" that cost the
bivalves their winning streak.
"We controlled the game for the first 20 minutes. I don't know why we didn't score a
goal," sighed a young Geoduck. The squalid squad squandered their energy too early against
a team in top condition. About 25 minutes into the game, a South Olympia center forward
squirted through the "duck" defenders to score. "I didn't realize how far back we were,"
admitted Beeler.
The big Green made it up on a neat lay-in by John Hitaarth of a perfect lay-out from
Coach Jacques Zimiki. But once was not enough. The Southerners got through the duck defense again with only five minutes left to play.
"If only . . ," is too easy a response for the sadder but wiser Geoducks. They look
only ahead, to this Sunday's 12:30 p.m. match at Grey's Harbor College.
