The new sexual harassment policy,
approved in August, is now available.
Students, staff, and faculty must
submit nominations for the sexual
harassment investigative team to the
President's Office, Library 3109 by Fri.
Oct 9. President Jane Jervis is also
reviewing candidates to serve as the
alternative to the present Affirmative
Actions Officer, Ermelindo Escabedo.
The investigative teams and the
ombudsperson (woman serving as an
alternative to the current affirmative

Action officer) are two of the changes
made to the Sexual Harassment Policy
approved August 12, 1992.
"The Investigative Teams will
facilitate the formal complaint process by
carrying out... interviews with the
complainant, the respondent, witnesses and
any others who have relevant information
about a complaint of sexual harassment,"
according to a memorandum sent by
Jervis.
The ombudsperson, a second person
of a gender opposite that of the
Affirmative Action Officer, was added to

Pizza driver robbed
by Nate Waddoups
A delivery man for Brewery City
Pizza was robbed in the evening hours of
Wednesday the Sept. 23, according to
Sergeant Larry Savage, of Evergreen's
Department of Public Safety (formerly
Evergreen Security).
According to Savage, the delivery
man had misunderstood the destination
given to him by .the people who had
ordered the pizza and was getting back
into his car, after taking the pi~ to the
wrong address, when he was robbed.
"He had the pizza and [money] in
one hand, and was opening ,his car door ·,
with the other, :when someone . knocked
him down, stole the pizza and money, and
ran off," according to Savage.
The victim went then went back to
Brewery City Pizza and called 911
immediately.

"It's something that the Sheriff is
taking very seriously," Savage commented,
"because it is the first 'strong-arm'
robbery in [a year] ."
The most recent related incident
happened last year, when a parking
attendant was beaten and robbed.
Savage said the he felt crime might
be on the rise here at the College.
"Last year, we had one robbery; this
year, we've already had two," Savage said
(the other robbery was the theft of a guitar
from a student's residence).
Savage suspects the increase in such
crimes is due to non-students that frequent
the College, many of whom, "don't
appreciate what we have here."
Nate Waddoups writes the Security
Blotter for the CPl.

the policy in an effort to provide
alternatives to people pursuing sexual
harassment concerns. The ombudsperson
should be appointed by the beginning of
winter quarter according to Jervis.
Escabedo is working with the office
of Civil Rights and the Office of Human
Rights to create a training program to
ensure the investigative teams will know
how to conduct an investigation to the
point of reasonable, or no reasonable,
cause.
The candidates for the ombudsperson
were selected by Escabedo and Jervis.
Jervis will solicit community feedback on
her final list of candidates sometime in
October.
Another major difference in the new
policy concerns a process called "verbal
notification. "
In the amendments made in July 20,
to the policy Les Puree, former Interim
President, said, "Anonymous complaints
are not in keeping with the spirit of the
social contract; nor do they facilitate
mutual resolution of any concern between
parties involved."
In the former policy one alternative
to the formal complaint process was to
verbally notify the person the complainant
had a problem with. The complainant had
the option of remaining anonymous in this
process.
Anonymous verbal notifications are
no longer an option in the new Sexual
Harassment Policy. Escabedo is not sure
what kind of effect this will have on the

On Friday, Oct 2, around noonish at
Sylvester Park, which is downtown on
Capitol & Legion, Olympia will be hosting
a funky music/political event better known
as Rock the Vote. The respective line-up
includes one Betsy Holt, the punk/jazz
fusion Vibe Tribe, the lovely and decadent
Fuse, our rock n' roll pals Creep and the
ever fascinating Heliotroupe. Even if I
thought the electoral system was
fraudulent, pointless and plainly an
example of how a good idea can be
manipulated and corrupted by powerhungry people with a lot of money, I still
wouldn't want to miss the music.
Registrars from Thurston and King
counties will be present to register those
of you who aren't. Oct. 3 is the last day to
register to vote, since it has to be done at
least 30 days before Election day. You
can also register at the Branch (located in
the Community Center) if you will be
stuck on campus and/or can '1 make it to
the show.
If you want to request an absentee
ballot from your hometown, you will need
to mail a little note requesting one, the
address you want it mailed to and your
signature. The address to mail this to is on
your voter registration card. Yes, it's
true ... stamps are available for a big 29
cents on the first floor of the CAB. This is
important for Oregon voters who want to
speak their mind on that cornucopia of
good will and respect, Measure number 9.
If you're wondering exactly how
easy it is to vote those suckers out of
office, you'll be thrilled to know that all
you need is a Thurston (or King) county
address, one piece of 1.0. (driver's license,
social security card, anything!), about two
and a half minutes and on Nov. 3 you
personally can Rock the Vote.
Robyn Heikes is a member of the
Evergreen community and wishes she was
a student.
The following is a list of places on
campus and Olympia where you can rock
the vote:
KAOS, the Branch, CAB Lobby,
In front of the CAB, Thurston County
Courthouse, and of course Sylvester Park.
SATURDAY OCTOBER 3, IS THE
LAST DAY TO REGISTER TO VOTEDON'T FORGET!

by Early Ewing
Joye Hardiman, Director of
Evergreen's Tacoma Campus has two
curricular missions: to globalize the
curriculum and establish an Urban
Institute.
. "I don't mean internationalize," said
Hardiman, "when I say globalize I mean
environment, concepts and looking at
World History rather than Western
History."
Hardiman stresses the importance of
shifting, changing, and reimaging that is
clearly reflected in the dYnamic nature of
the Tacoma Campus.
''The institute is about how to tum
data into information," said Hardiman,
"and then how to tum information into
improvements; in a family, a community,
[and] a country."
Hardiman was born and raised in
Buffalo, New York and has a Ph.D. in
Literary Studies and Urban Education. She
officially assumed the role of Director of
the Tacoma Campus two years ago.
Hardiman transferred to the Campus in

1980, after four years in Olympia as a
Theater and Humanities faculty.
''The Tacoma Campus shows people
that diversity cannot be taught," said
Hardiman, "that you must be diverse."
She cites the · example of The
University of Washington Tacoma Campus
attempting to teach classes in diversity,
s uch as Asian Studies, African Studies and
Women's Studies, rather than
acknowledging and capitalizing on their
own powers.
"I would hope that if people could
look at us deeply enough," said Hardiman,
"they could transcend the skin of the
diversity and understand the creative
power of the diversity."
The Olympia Campus also falls into
the trap of nonrecognition.
"I would like for us to be a mirror,"
she said, "reflecting that when you operate
from a very broad sense of diversity the
creativity is powerful." Hardiman said,
"we are a model, that shows: differences
work, and that differences are and they
can be seen in different sorts of ways."

"What is said on campus on ·
Tuesday," said Hardiman, "will be talked
about in the beauty shop on Thursday, the
barber shop on Friday, the MaIl on
Saturday and will be preached from the
pulpit on Sunday."
It is clear to Hardiman the
importance of the curriculum.
. Information, thoughts and ideas go directly
out into the community and take shape.
Hardiman quoted Dr. Richard Brian
as saying; "when I teach, I teach to five .
generations."
The students at the Tacoma Campus
often have full-time jobs, children and
sometimes grandchildren, it is not
uncommon to have husbands and wives or
parents and their children in the same
classroom.
"The information we teach," said
Hardiman, "has to be information that
helps people make changes in their lives
and the lives of others."
The ideas and concepts studied and
developed at the Tacoma Campus are put
into action. Hardiman told the story of

'when the faculty brought poet and writer
Maya Angelou to speak at the Tacoma
Campus.
"We made a decision not to make it
a public event," said Hardiman, "we
decided it was for Maya"
The Faculty brought in an antique
rocker and foot stool, covered a table with
lace and placed a tea set on it They
invited Angelou to come and share stories.
"Maya broke down and cried," tells
Hardiman, "she said she had never been
given that kind of gift before."
Angelou ta1ked with them for four
and a half hours. The realization that
everyone takes from our speakers, sparked
Hardiman to start the tradition of giving
back to them.
"We ask them to give their best one
day," said Hardiman, "and then we show
them the best of the Northwest the next"

Un-Cola buckles under

by Jane Laughlin
The Un-Cola, as it was known from
January until the end of August, is no
more. The small, drafty space located in
the alley between the Capitol Theater and
Mario's downtown, once known for its
punk shows and art exhibits, finally
buckled under pressure by local businesses
to close its doors.
Though the actual, physical Un-Cola
is now unavailable for booking (it's being
rented as a practice space), the members
of the Un-Cola collective have remained
together, and are currently filing for nonprofit status, with the intention of
becoming a ~ort of production company in
Olympia. They will still book shows in
various places around the city, that is,
until a new, permanent space is found.
A representative of the Un-Cola
stated that the shutdown came about as a
result of continual complaints by
surrounding tenants, regarding alleged
graffiti, litter, and "behavior" on the part
of Un-Cola patrons, failing
to
acknowledge the possibility that damage
could have been done to the alley during
the weeknights as well as weekends, and
that the Un-Cola should not be singled
out. Nonetheless, the Un-Cola
representative did admit that some

showgoers were responsible, commenting
"Fuck you all for peeing in the alley and
littering. It was you that helped to shut
down the club and now nobody can see
bands there."
The Un-Cola was ·started in early
January of this year, and was intended as
a collective group of people who support
the Olympia music scene and want to help
bring touring bands to town. The people
who set up shows do not make any profit,
since all of the cover price goes to pay
bands, rent, sound, and lighting.
Following some problems with the
Olympia Fire Department last spring, the
Un-Cola remained open through the
summer, and was actually beginning to
earn some money at the time of its
closure. The Un-Cola now has $400 in its
bank account.
Meetings are still held Mondays at
7:30 p.m., at the Olympia Community
Center, on the comer of Olympia and
Capitol Way. All interested are welcome
and encouraged to come with ideas and
support
Jane Laughlin will treasure all
memories of the Un-Cola (except Fifteen),
especially the one lhat found her silting in
front of it late Aug. 17. Bumblescrump.

Dumb schInuck exercises First ·A mendment

:"=:"=:"'::''':'';:=''':::'='''';:=:'-_-'

by Seth "Skippy" Long
Last week's column was a test. It
was only a test If that had been a real
column it would have made sense to even
some readers. The writers on your campus
have organized this test to prepare you in
the event of an emergency. If this had
been a real emergency, the column you

just read would have been followed by the
"Duck and Cover" routine. This concludes
this test of the Pathetic Column
Emergency System.
Whew! So much for that I need to
tell you about a letter I just wrote to a
man in Pullman, W A named Mark
Driscoll. You see, this Mr. Driscoll writes
a column for the Washington State
University newspaper The Daily
Evergreen. On Sept. 17 he published a
piece about homosexuality on the Wazzu
campus. True to Eastern Washington form,
the column was filled to the gills with
rampant homophobia, hate, stereotypes and
misconceptions. It was so amazing, in fact,
that the CPJ editors took a line from it for
last week's "Quote of the Week".
So there I was, reading this
ridiculous schlock and it hits me. The
sheer genius of it all. How could I have
been so blind not to see it right away?

This man, this Mark Driscoll despite the
fact that his personal views are both
intellectually retarded and morally
reprehensible, understands the true nature
of journalism and the First Amendment.
He has seen the light, the power. You can
say anything you feel and someone will
print it! What's more, some people will
even read it (Shit, the Bev Report proved
that.) Things get even better if you really
believe what you're writing and make
people think about it.
Before I knew it I found myself in
front of my monitor banging away on the
keys with a fan letter to Mr. Driscoll. I did
not hesitate to let him know, right away,
how I felt about his opinions. But I
applauded him for using his constitutional
right to say it.
So many of us abstain from making
statements in our lives. This seems to be
especially true with our generation. We

have seen so much shit go down with our
government since Nixon that we figure it's
better to smile and nod, to just go about
our lives and hope the shit doesn't fallon
us. Until lately that is.
In the last two or three years we
have become increasingly vocal, about
everything from the environment to the
quality and cost of our health services. We .
need to do more, though.
It is my belief that more people should
stand up and say whatever is on their
mind!l. That's really what I want to do
with this column. Stand up and shout, it's
healthy.
And to Mr. Driscoll, a thousand
thanks for doing what you do, you pathetic
little bastard. May the flies never land on
you.
Seth "Skippy" Long works too hard.

Television programs instrument of destruction?
by James Wright
The time has arrived once again. All
summer long, fans long for the return of
their favorite reoccurring characters in
sitcoms, docu-dramas, and nighttime
soaps·. During the last two weeks of
September, the characters come to life
once again, to give the viewer a sense of
continuum, feclings of warmth and safety.
But many fmd television an instrument of
destruction.
For decades, critics have leveled the
offerings of the major television networks.
They cry out denouncing the new crop as
unrealistic. fantasy-like, and sophomoric.
Yet millions tune in nightly to share time
with a character or group they hold close
to their hearts.
I proudly admit an attachment to two
shows, The Simpsons, and Star Trek: The
NeXl Generation. For my own reasons, I

Waste reduction prospers
here at Evergreen cam.pus

REDUCE
R E-USE
R ECYCLE

by Greg Wright
We have a proud history of waste
reduction and recycling here at Evergreen.
In fact, we have maintained a recycling
program on campus since the 1970s. Here
is how it works currently, with your help
it will continue to grow and prosper
throughout the year.
Bottles and cans are collected in
over 40 RED collection containers located
around campus. We expect that number to
grow later this month to SO. Paper is
collected from aU of the office and
classroom areas by a system of containers
that are BLUE. Later this month every
desk will have a BLUE desk-side
collection containez. Paper is collected in
each individual container and deposited in
one of 45 centrally located containers
(BLUE) and those larger containers are
transported to six centrally located
collection points in the loading dock areas.
When you are· on campus you are never
far away from a recycling container LOOK FOR TIffiSE COLORS: RED for
bottles and calis - BLUE for paper
The most interesting part of the
recycling pm&fllll is one that is noticed
the least. It. has to do with attitude and the
general aWaJ'l~lIess level of the staff
responsible for making the institution
work. Take ;t look at the bookstore the
next time you are shopping. Anything
different? How about the large variety of
products that feature recycled content or
the used flashlight battery collection

contai.ner. . You won't find that kind of
selecbon 10 any off campus store! The
next time you use the public bathrooms
look closely at the toilet paper - that' s
right, made from recycled paper. And after
you wash your hands, dry them on real clothnot sparkle white paper towels. This
month we will be replacing all of the
wooden park benches with, you guessed it,
recycled plastic lumber. Last year, 80
percent of all the paper purchased for
campus use had recycled content. And, I
know, it all probably seems easy but let
me tell you in an institution this big, it is
a major effort
There are a lot of people who have
helped to make our program what it is
today, but none deserves more credit that
Bonnie Ward. You may have seen her as
she makes her rounds every afternoon
collecting paper. Her job is truly "where
the rubber meets the road" and I hope that
the next time you run across her you will
give her a "thumbs up" for her efforts.
Next w~ I will examine the new
recycling programs at Evergreen. In the
mean time drop by the recycling office
and we'll tallc "Trash."

recycling coordinator.

"R. R'OMAR" ORAmUM
r

'Ie:

by Dr. Richard Cranium
I, like so many others, went last
week to pay my tuition (or actually went
to pick up the remainder of my grant
check; no apologies forthwith) and was
confronted with that nasty little charge
which they levy on me quarterly, $3.50.
This I'm told goes to an organization
known as WashPIRG or the Washington
Public Interest Research Group.
Now, my fIrst year here at
Evergreen, I was, like so many others,
binen by the "save the world" bug. When
confronted with the question of whether to
give or not (in a long irritated line of other
tuition payers), I thought, "What the hell?;
Sure." I was given little introductory
information about the group and knew
nothing more about it than what its name
implied. My as~umption was that it

represented the public interest and that it
must have been an organization backed by
the state. Why else would they be able to
ask for money through my tuition
payment?
Sometime later, after countless
phone calls from the PIRGs (as they are
known) requesting my attendance to their
meetings with the promise of free pizza as
an incentive, I began to wonder, "who the
hell was funding all this free pizza
anyway?" It did not take great
introspection on my part to realize that it
was in fact me!
Further investigation quickly ensued
and I found that this organization neither
represented the interests of the public, nor
did it have any connection to The
Evergreen State College. What I did find
out was that it was run by lobbyists who
were particularly adept at maintaining their
organization by tapping into the resources
that they could suck out of easily
impressed college students who were
seeking quick social acceptance by their
peers. What a better way to beef up
enlistment (and ultimately one's budget)
than to offer students a exclusive fraternal
group for which to pledge their allegiance.
It works much like any other fraternity or

sorority. Those who are "in" assert their
importance by reminding all of us who are
"out" how much we need to be "in." It
becomes a way to establish tllltt you are
concerned and that you are willing to
prove it. But, what, may I ask are they
trying to prove? The only firm answer I
can extract from their bantering is that I,
by way of my not being "in", am not
concerned. And with this, they have
sparked the good doctors attention!
My fmt objection is with the portion
of their name which implies that they
work in the public interest. This is a
misnomer. They work for the portion of
the public which agrees with them.
Loggers and Republicans are by definition
(contempt notwithstanding) a portion of
the public. Yet I can hardly believe that
they would agree that WashPIRG works in
their best interest This contention might,
in fact, have the effect of beefmg up
WashPIRG's ranks. But, please follow
along with me to the nut of my objection.
The :;heer fact that WashPIRG is
allowed to coerce $3.50 per quarter out of
us through our tuition implies strongly that
they are a watchdog of The Evergreen
State College. They are not The

WashPIRG other than the fact that some
pIROs once figured out a way to get their ..
name on our tuition sheets.
There are, in fact, fl bevy of equally ' .
needy student groups on this campus
which are not allowed the privilege of a
special box on the tuition form. If the
college administrators are to consider
themselves fair (an issue for another time)
then they must include stipulations for
tuition allotments for every student
organization on campus. We would have a
veritable smorgasbord of philanthropy to
choose from and equality would prevail.
The only other option would be to
clean the slate completely and let the
PIRGs fight for funding out in the cold
with everyone else.
Until then, what can we do to assert
our objection to this imbalance? Well, you
can do what I did. Go directly over to
student accounts, grab a putple card, fill it
out and demand your money back. Don't
allow WashPIRG to force its group think
on you and when you get your money
back, go out and buy your own damn

So lets get back to dreadlocks. We
all know that by some SlIOke of luck, our
scalp produces nice types of oils to keep
our hairs lustrous and shiny. If I am
correct in my assumption, these oils
contain proteins and other such essential
stuff. On to the next assumption. Jerry
Garcia is no mortal man. I have witnessed
what he does to people, the miracles (a
very relative tenn, miracles) he perfonns
through his art (art, another very relative
tenn). Yes, I am indeed leading up to the
near indisputable theory that Jerry was
born of a sort of immaculate conception.
He grew inside a dreadlock, due to some
act of god, fed on the oil rich proteins in
the mated locks, and sprang full-grown, in
all his glory, to save the masses from
feeling it is their social duty to keep
themselves relatively clean. It could
happen.

I was actually planning on writing
this letter .before I read Howard Stender's
letter ("Practice vs. Preaching at the
Organic Farm," Sept. 24) in the last issue
of the CPl. As .it turns out, my
suggestions go hand in hand with his.
I've noticed that many students at
Evergreen especially after they've spent
some time here, are very interested in
agriculture. The school catalogue has nifty
little pictures of the Organic Farm and
mentions (I think) classes and community
garden plots.
What it doesn't mention is the
waiting lists that appear almost
immediately on Ecological Agriculture
and other such classes, or the insane wait
on getting a community garden plot or the
near impossibility of gelling a job at the
Organic Farm.
With the possibility that the farm
facilities are (as Howard Stender
suggested) being used in ways that might
not be ideal, it seems to me that we need

people, over 68 pefcent of whom agree
on the need for a change, all getting
together and choosing the next president.
Hell, if only half of us vote we could
swing the elections next month.
At Lollapaiooza in San Fmncisco
Jello Biafm spoke about his inability to
both keep his conscience clear and vote
for a president at the same time. His
opinion was that neither candidate is
beuer than the .other. But he made an
extremely impOrtant point by saying that
there is a lot more to Nov. 3 than the
presidential race.
Here in Olympia we have many
important decisions to make. Who will
be our new governor, our new congress
person, council member, representative,
and judge? Who will we entrust our
public lands to? Who will be our next
auorney general? These are important
offices and the decisions made next
month will be felt nearly into the next
millennia.
I know that this is a bit preachy
and sounds like I'm on a soap box but I
also know that a lot of us have no
intention of voting and need to know the
truth. Ask someone on this campus with
AIDS how he or she feels about voting,
or somebody with no health care, or is
who unemployed, how important these
elections are to them.
Here at Evergreen we are mostly
isolated from the realities of the
surrounding community. We have our
cushy campus jobs or our trust funds or
our nice guamnteed loans to live on. We
have our health center and a job board
and affordable housing. We don't need
to trouble ourselves with issues like
health care, the economy or family leave.
BullshiL Someday we'll graduate and"
that stuff will slap us all in the face
because by not voting on it we let
somebody else do it for us.
Many of us dQll't feel that we need
to vote yet we still complain when we
disapprove of public policy. By refusing
to vote, we have given up our right to
bitch and moan. We abstain from all
things political.
Get your absentee ballots. It only
takes a phone call or a leUer. Read a few
papers to fmd out about the candidates.
Call cainpaign offices for official
literafure. Shit, watch some TV news and
get the official line. Do what you want
but DO VOTE. If I sound like a broken
record then tough. Give me grief after
you vote.

Clinton & Gore
are on your side
Bill Clinton is not just like Bush.
The implication was made in a CP1 article
that the differences between Clinton and
Bush were poctmyed as either minimal or
cosmetic, and while that is true for some
differences, there are substantive ones as
well.
Clinton believes that government can
be a tool to help out those who deserve it.
Bush and his lot claim that government
gets in the way of people whenever it
rears its ugly head. Both sides can cite
examples that support their philosophies.
Now, Clinton is no socialist. He won't
create a state like they've got in Sweden,
but the two candidates' philosophies create
REAL DIFFERENCES in their policy. I
will explain some of them.
Clinton favors a health care plan in
which everyone gets some coverage,
regardless of employment status or any
medical liability. In an age when
companies are now hiring temporary
employees - who are exempt from
receiving most workers' benefits - that' s
important. Bush's tax break to provide
insurance doesn't cover the full cost and
does nothing about those people who
companies won't insure. That's a real
difference.
Clinton's educational refonns are
also real. He proposed standards for
teachers. He poured more money into the
educational system, but changed it, too. He
says that there should be apprenticeship
programs. Some people learn better at
hands-on work than class work. The more
people have to learn, the more people will
learn! Not only that, but it has been shown
that a skilled, intelligent, imaginative labor
force draws jobs! Even manufacturing jobs
can be drawn from places where the wage
is lower, where the environmental and
safety regulations are less stringenL An
educated work force solves many
problems.
Best of all, in my opinion, is his
college loan refonn package. He will
allow any American to take out a college
loan. Think of the lives that that one
chance can save! And then, ' once the
students have graduated, they need only
pay - I believe - around 4% of their
income per year until the debt is paid. Or
they can choose the other,
REVOLUTIONARY, method: students can
payoff their loan by serving their
communities. It will give a needed work
force help to solve the social decay that

COlllplacent Greeners shun public expression
By Bryan Connors
Well, it's Tuesday, 4 p.m. and as I
scan over the bevy (gosh I like that word)
of submissions for this week's CP1, I take
note of one glaring omission: THERE
AIN'T NO FORUM pmCES!l!
I mean, come on folks, this grand 01'
rag was built on intense insights, grandiose
options, and heartfelt drivel submiued by
the roaring throngs of the Evergreen
community.
What's going on here? Did everyone
take a mellow drug or something? Isn't
anyone out there cheesed off enough to
put pen to paper and express it?
But, heck, you don't have to be mad
to submit a Forum piece - you just have to
have an opinion to express. And if you do
have an opinion you wish to express,
express it through the mighty CPl. That
way everyone can hear what you wish to
say.
Interested? Well here are a few steps
to guide you on your way through the land
of OplEd (that's opinion and editorial, for
you journalistically ignorant out there).

•

-First, get an opinion. An opinion is
like a nose; everyone has at least one. If
you don't have an opinion, you're one sad
puppy. And if you don't have a nose, how
do you smell? (ANSWER: Terrible.)
-Second, think it out. Make sure it
has a premise and somewhat of a
conclusion. Please try not to ramble and

rave from beginning to end because all
this will do is give the readers, my fellow
editors, and me a headache akin to having
been yelled at - at top volume - for twoplus minutes.
-Third, write it down. We prefer that

threatens this nation, to build the bridges
and high-speed mil networks, clean up
waste dumps, to help teach the illiterate,
feed the hungry and yes, serve as police
officers.
Mr. Slusher's article declared that,
"[Clinton] ... is very excited about pulling
100,000 police on the streets which is an
early indicator of a penalty oriented
policy ... " Well, the fact is that many
police forces, especially in map cities,
are heavily understaffed and overworked.
There are bad apples, and in some forces,
they may be in the majority. But
decreasing the number of police only
increases their strain and tension while
lowering their effectiveness.
Clinton doesn't stop there. He wants
COMMUNITY BASED POUCING in
which the officers get to KNOW the
members of the community. When an
officer becomes part of a community they
don't feel sepamte, aloof or threatened.
And the citizens will learn to trust the
police. The officer can talk to people, find
out their gripes and show a friendly side
of the law. Would someone who had been
Rodney King's neighbor be as likely to
assault him? And for that to work, more
officers are needed.
Clinton is not bigger-happy. I do not
know if he truly supported the Gulf War
or air strikes on Bosnia, but I fmnly
believe that the reason he stated his
support was at least in part political. (Most
of what candidates do and say are that
way). He didn't want to be called a dove.
And I recognize a certain slickness in him.
He's no saint; he's a politician.
As for the environment, Gore will be
there. It's true that Clinton didn't do a
great job in Arkansas. But the head of the
Sierm Club said that Governor Clinton
always kept the environmental promises he
made. Does Bush? Clinton said that he
would have signed the treaties in Rio.
Also, we, the wasteful public - including
yours truly - are as much to blame for
environmental decay as any leader.
Now, of course, Clinton's plan will
have problems. Some parts will remain
mere principle, others will fail. And those
who believe that there is a viable
alternative to Capit8Iism will not like
Clinton.
If the nation is run by the CIA et al,
they could easily falsify the election and
let their favored candidate win. But they
may not run the whole show (just a rather
large part of it). Our voices may count.
That is how I believe.

HUSBANDS AND WIVES,
DIRECTED BY WOODY ALLEN
TRISTAR PICTURES
LACEY CINEMAS
by Brad Watkins

Most of us have come to know a
Woody Allen mm as an essay in personal
relationships of dysfunctional characters.
In due course, the appeal of such work
sometimes strikes a chord within many
people who can understand their struggles,
combined with subtle erotic humor. The
new installment to Allen's library,
Husbands and Wives - is by no means
original in that respect. As a story, it
moves at an extremely rapid pace. This is
facilitated by a documentary style format,
shooting . the dramatizations in a home
movie approach. The actual characters are
then periodically fllmed head-on in
interviews conducted by a never-seennarrator.
Woody Allen (Gabe) plays his
normal, nervous little man persona seen in
. just about every fllm he has produced.
Allen's profession as a Columbia
University writing professor brings him
into contact with a young female student,
whose talented abilities infatuate Allen
throughout the story. However, their
relationship never extends beyond close
friendship and a passionate kiss given at
her twenty-fllSt birthday party. Allen's
wife Judy, (played of course by Mia
Farrow) is a terribly bored inteUectual who
is frustrated by Allen's insistence on

always being right, and in refusing to have
any kids. Sally believes that Gabe holds
little regard for her, although he denies it.
The second set of misfitS, friends
Jack and Sally (Sidney Pollack and Judy
Davis) are a husband and wife couple who
at the very beginning of the film announce
their break-up to Gabe and Judy. The story
proceeds to document the affairs (or
fantasies) of this foursome until the end,
as if this is really happening. Jack has an
affair with a young aerobicist/health nut

whose passion for astrology never permits
her to leave the stars; Sally pursues a
subdued man more her age, but never
reaches any fulfillment. So, does anybody
need an explanation for its conclusion?
How about Jack and Sally once again
getting back together, while Gabe and
Judy leave each other to pursue different
interests. A typical Woody Allen plot that
goes full circle, but holds very little to the
imagination.
One good thing I can say about

CRASH WORSHIP WITH SAGE
SEPTEMBER 24

Husbands and Wives is that since Alfred
Hitchcock might always be the Master of
Suspense, Woody Allen should be deemed
the Soap Opera King, because both men
devise the same plots and themes in their
work. If either man tried to pursue
something unique, he would face a.dismal
failure or a boring fIlm. Like Hitchcock,
Allen has long ago found the best niche
for what he does. Therefore, don't enter
the theater expecting anything less from
Woody Allen.
If you like great acting, a fast
moving plot, with shaky, spinning camera
angles, then go see this movie. I think the
cinematographer must have been drunk
during the entire production. In
documentaries some call it effect, I just
call it pointless. Also, for those who can
appreciate Allen's pseudo-intellectualism
and erotic humor the fIlm is a must see.
However, if you perceive movies as
pure entertainment, then begin a massive
letter writing campaign to Twentieth
Century Fox Television and insist upon a
Beverly Hills 90210: The Movie to be
made. Tell them it's time for America
to experience the full meaning of human
relationships in the '90s on the big
screen, because those concepts put · on
fIlm by Woody Allen are terribly
unrealistic for a modem age.
Brcld Watkins is a campus film
wizard and will be writing reviews
regularly for the Cooper Point Journal

Crash Worship entered wearing pig masks

constraints of civilization.

fell under the rhythmic hypnosis.
All myth aside for a inoment, Crash
Worship is a San Diego based
performance art band who's players
consist of Jeff Mattson, Simoh Cheffons,
Wolf Carcass, John Goff, Domingo De
Santa Clara and JXL.
The predominant sound of Crash
Worship is the apocalyptic drum beat,
which is achieved with three separate sets
of drums on stage, and other portable ones
that are used throughout the show as well.

There are also a keyboard, sampling
machine and guitar which add an industrial
touch that completes the band's sound in
a kind of Gwar meets the Shaka Zulu
soundtrack effect.
Audience participation was an
obvious emphasis in the show as band
members played in the crowd and the
crowd often took their place on stage.
Mter the show one of the sweat drenched
crowd members who was able to retain
cognitive thought throughout the rampage
described it as, "The ultimate cathartic
experience of a lifetime." But then, maybe
he had that planned before he got there.
Most people tended to leave in a quiet
sense of euphoria, and I'm sure had
flashbacks over the next couple of days. I
didn't see any of the aforementioned pig
blood, but nobody really dwelled on that
aspect
Crash Worship is available on CD,
but unless you see the show, it would be
like watching a film with no light bulb in
the projector.
Andy Lyons is a new contributor to
the CPl. We at the office think that he's
pretty groovy.

It should be pointed out from the
beginning that the purpose ·of this review
is not to provi4e a complete and accurate
picture of anything. In fact, it's not even
necessarily going to make sense. The only
thing that has been decided about this
review is that I will think a little bit about
the show I saw and felt, while I write it.
If this already seems pretentious to you,
then it probably is; go read the comics OJ
the security blotter.

'-.. half naked people
were beating on
enormous and bizarre
drums, creatures in pig
masks seemed
to be everywhere.
Sage was, well, in retrospect - and.
compared to everything else, okay. They
know how to play their instruments, y.ou
can dance to them, but I know other
people far more fond of them than I am
Perhaps one of them should be writing
this, since I have very little to say about
Sage. In fact, I think I pretty much feel
the same way about Sage as Ido about
sage (the plant, that is). Sage the plant i$
okay stuff, I don't mind the smell, but
there are other plants I'd spynd my' money _
on before I went out and bought a btlndle
of sage.
..
.:
There was a looong pause~~een .
the end of Sage and the incai'nation of
Crash Worship. Since most people were
there to see Crash WorShip anyway,
perhaps they needed all that time to gather
and amass as much excitement and
curiosity as possible. I had trouble finding
people who had actually seen Crash
Worship before, and only the vaguest
descriptions were floating around. Crash
Wo~ship's frrrn grasp of group psychology
impressed me already.
Enough said. The background music
died down. Someone appeared (and at this
point the memories begin blurring
together, as all memories of a stranger
time do when you sit in comfortable
surroundings unchallenged by unseen
forces) on the stage and said, "Everyone
will get hurt." These were the last
intelligible words I remember hearing.
-Hellish noises erupted from
somewhere outside, on the roof of the
library. The crowd in front of the stage
rushed out the back doors onto the roof to
meet the procession gathering there. Huge,
hot, noxious torches were waving
everywhere, half-naked people were
beating on enonnous and bizarre drums.
creatures in pig masks seemed to be
everywhere. By the time the procession
had arrived at the stage, tortured guitar
began blaring out from the stage, meeting
the drums in a hypnotic, psychotic,
prehistoric zone where zombies spring up
at every drumbeat
Later, when people danced around
the circle of drummers and open flames in
some evil synchronicity, I realized that the
Crash Worship thing was just a perfection
of the hippie drum circle. Yes, that's right,
in my eyes every drum circle everywhere
strives for that, a session of good old
fashioned rhythmic suggestion, training
many minds into a violent groove so deep
that one thinks it out of place to hear
gurgling vocals that resemble some postaJXlCalyptic language of some tribe of
cannibalistic mutants.
HeU, that's the essence of northwest
music. 1bat's the essence of hwnan
histoiy. Okay, fme. That doesn't make any
sense. But in my mind, anything that
makes me babble about that sort of thing
is worth four bucks.

Red Rover, let MOTHERMAVI come over
by Robyn Heikes
, After suffering a self-induced
nervous breakdown and simultaneously
combatting what I'm' sure was waDdng
pneumonia. I suddenly found myself with
a lot of spare time (i.e. I lost my job) and
a severe interest in music, but no
applicable talent (I can't play or sing
worth beans), soooo...1 gave myself a new,
non-profit career as ... a DASHBOARD
HULA DANCERI Actually I'm writing
about music personalities, reviewing shows
or whatever seems interesting. My first
"real" interview was witli one of
Olympia's best ~... MOTHERMAYI.
Van, Todd and a very reluctant Tim
took time out of their glorious life to share
the following tidbits with me:
Me (the interviewer): Are you guys going
for the big time or what?
Mothermayi: (A resounding) NO!
Me: According k) most people, including

myself, you all are definitely an Olympia
favorite. Do you want to be signed?
Van: We don't have any intention of being
signed. We'd like to have someone put out
our record but not some,huge label. We'd
like to have a smaller, underground.. J
think that if we did something like Sub
Pop, it would be weird.
Me: So, maybe an independent label,
locally?
Todd: Should we tell her our idea?
Van: Sure, why not.
Todd: Well, we had an idea of through
three separate small labels, or even just
individuals, releasing three 7" songs
simultaneously. Possibly one locally, a guy
in New Jersey and maybe somebody down
in California. It would be .. .interesting.
Me: What about your influences?
Van: We listen to the same things
everyone else listens to. We don't really
write our songs to be like any particular

sound. We just make the songs to sort of
suit themselves.
Me: Is it just me or are all your songs
, about 10 minutes long?
Todd: When we are ':creating," we just
stay with whatever soUnds, ummm, neat,
instead of looking for something that
sounds a certain way. We really don,' t
know what we're doing in a lot of ways
because we've never been taught. We
didn't start out taking lessons. We don't
think about limits that much as far as, "Oh
you can't play that 'cuz it sounds weird."
They all met in South Dakota and
decided to move out here because, ~'It's
nicely located It's between big cities. It's
between the mountains and the sea And
there's a lot here for its size. A lot of
freaks, geeks and musicians."
Me: So, about the lyrics?
Van: We don't write songs to be hits at
all. We just write about what affects us.

Chapman sings, sparkles, and so on

Me: They seem like entries from
someone's diary;
Van: That's basically what they are. We
don't write songs about politics 1>ecause
~tty much allpolitic~.c~e. down to Self.
Tun: (HE SPEAKSI) w~ hope peq>le
.get from oW' music is not anything othe( .
than to be themselves 'imd feel whatever '
they feel and not be afraid of that. In that
way, I think we're kind of political, but
it's more on a personal level. There's a lot
of bands that write songs about racism,
etc., and just get up and say "Racism
Sucks!" Well, we all know it sucks and
just to get together and say "Fuck Racism"
doesn't really do anything.
Todd: The only thing you can really do to
try and change the world is be a better
person.
We then went on to discuss the
possibility of life in outer space, social
hierarchies, idol worship, and how nice it
would be to get a beer at the Eastside if
the line isn't too long.
Mothermayi will be playing at the
Phoenix House (one block east of the RibEye on Phoenix St.) with Shlong (from the
Bay Area), False Sacrament, Olympia's
own Pottymouth and Rockin' Rod & the
Strychnines on Sunday, Oct. 4. It's a day
