Moon set long ago
Sunrise just to go
A bird long awake,
Feathers rustled about him
Perched, looking down and out
Quietly over the frosted lawn
And bushes and street, at the river
Contemplates the flow of time
The river, time, tums rushing
Deceiving In surface, drowning
In depth, bitter COld, vacant death.
The bird alone peers below
Where's his mate? Where Is he?

by Rachel Nesse
The team didn't drown, but in the
words of former swim coach Aldo
Melchiori, "This team is done for the
year." With that as their endnote, the
remainder of Evergreen's men's and
women's varsity swim team practices and
meets were canceled. A team that began
with 23 in the water during October
ended with only four.
Melchiori sees an unstable coaching
staff and dwindling enthusiasm among
swimmers as two factors which led to the
season's demise.
When asked about the season's abrupt
ending, swimmers' opinions differ
considerably.
In Craig Erickson's mind, "Injuries,
illness, schoolwork... the WAR really had
a lot to do with it The war started and
everything disintegrated."

He spies the winter rose,
Red white-frosted petals furled close
Waiting for the sun to arrive
To Impregnate her with heat,
End the bitter night, and bring her alive.
The son is coming, he thinks
To warm his flower, to impregnate her
With life, to see her unfold

Burst with fruit. She senses his coming

"It's painful for me to see this search
for the perfect student government
continue," said Vice President for Student
Affairs Gail Martin of the relentless
problems facing Evergreen's student
government.
Martin's comments were prompted by
a February 5 memorandum from assistant
Attorney General Michael Grant, in
which he deemed the Student Governance
(SG) document illegal. Grant cited several
items within the SG document which di~
not conform to Washington state law.

Events leading to the season's
collapse can be traced back to October.

threatened to collapse what was left of

found. Practices were set to start January
7 (the fust week of winter quarter), but
on January 4 the new coach backed out
of the position. At this same time the
assistant swim coach left and only four
members of the team were meeting

SG, sees the governance document as, "a
vehicle to empower students in areas
wh~ they haven't had a voice before."
Jefferson expressed his willingness to
work with Grant in making the document
legal. "We're forming a subcommittee of
students and
going to get in touch
with Grant through Gail Martin."
Scott Richardson, a student involved
with last year's student government, the
.Student Union,said of the 1990-1991
student government, "I'm among those
who don't feel the best form of
government is to isolate particular
groups."

are

According to Richardson, the Student
Union operated with the fonnal use of
Roberts Rules of Order in their meetings,
which made those unfamiliar with the
rules uncomfortable. Richardson believes
the Student Union would have eventually
worked as a form of governance for
students.
Gail Martin voiced similar sentiments,
"I'd like · to see students settle with a
simple embryonic fonn of government
and go with it for a while." Martin thinks
that students can modify a student
government document and deal with it
based on experience.
Damon Rosencutter, an at-large

member of the SG, is leading a Citizens
Overtly Using Power (COUP) proposal,
suggesting
an
alternative
student
government. The COUP platform is based
on a one person, one vote system.
In response to the COUP proposal
Gail Martin said, "I've seen something
like this before. It sounds like it's the
next cycle in the history of this issue."
Martin said she'd like to see the COUP
work with the current student government
and work out something operable. "This
issue just keeps going around in circles."

Lou Gold has come down from the
mountain to preach the "gospel" of Earth
Wisdom. For the third year here at
Evergreen and his eighth year nationally
he is speaking on behalf of ancient trees
and wild places. With walking stick in
hand, he weaves tales of forest ecology
with the politics facing old growth.
Gold's story begins in the midwest,
where he was a political science
professor at Oberlin College and then
Southern 'Illinois. Mter giving one of his
"drop-out" speeches he took his own ·
advice and soon found himself in Oregon
as a carpenter. He joined a road blockade
to help stop the building of a logging
road to Bald Mountain. After getting out
of jail he decided to visit the mountain
he had helped to defend, planning to stay
a couple days but ending up there for
two months. With this he began his
traditional summer vigils at the ridge of
Bald Mountain, where each night at his
prayer circle he give thanks to the four
directions and earth and sky.
Bald Mountain is located in the
Siskiyou National Forest in southwestern
Oregon. The mountain is split by a
governmental line that declares that half
is protected in the Kalmiopsis Wilderness
and the other half is subject to logging in
'.' ~ NatiQnal Forest. This unprotected half
is' pan'of the lar~eSt Unprotected roadless
area along the Pacific Coast, according to
the Wilderness Society. Lou Gold is
trying to get its unprotected standing
changed by involving citizens from all
over the United States.
When not on the mountain Lou Gold
tours the United States, trying to raise
consciousness on the issue of ancient

the make-up of the waste stream.
"Dumpster Dives" aid this process.
The time and labor students donate
are what make these projects successful.
Researching campus waste might pave the
way for other forms of recycling and
perhaps an on-campus composting system.

This quarter WashPIRG is doing a
recycling campaign, part of which is a
waste stream analysis. A waste stream
analysis determines the kinds and
amounts of materials in the waste stream.
Data gathered from the analysis will be
used to propose improvements in
Evergreen's recycling program.
On February 6, about 20 students
worked with WashPIRG to sort recycled
paper in the Library basement. The
purpose of the sort was to judge the
effectiveness of current sorting efforts on
campus by examining the types and
amounts of paper that end up in the
paper recycle boxes. Over the course of
four hours the group sorted 1,364 pounds
of paper.
One ·box. which contained ' 663
pounds of mixed paper, included the

following:
white ledger-308 lbs.
mixed waste-209 lbs.
computer-40 lbs.
colored ledger-73 lbs.
newsprint-31 Ibs.
trash-2 lbs.
A 701-pound box of which should
have contained colored ledger paper was
sorted to get an idea of the amount of
higher grade white ledger ending up in
the wrong stream. The re~;ults:
white ledger-4IS Ibs.
colored ledger-281 lbs.

belteves that he has had numerous
encounters with .alien beings who took
him to another planet He also believes
that aliens helped him to reincarnate into
his present body.
Mr. C. 's first strange memory is
flying an airplane which was having
engine trouble. He believes that this
experience happened in a past life as one
of the instruments on the plane displayed
the date 1933. As Mr. C. struggled to
land safely, a large disc-shaped UFO
appeared alongside, and moved so close
that he could see small , grey-skinned
occupants with abnormally large heads
peering at him from its windows. The
shock of sighting the craft caused Mr. C.
to lose concentration and his plane
crashed.
This is when things get really strang~.
Mr. C. found himself viewing the
wreckage from above, as if having an
"out of body" experience, and moments
later he was sucked aboard the UFO. He
watched through a port-hole as the craft
flew into space and landed aboard a
gigantic mothership.
Aboard the mothership Mr. C. noted
the presence of little grey aliens and tall,
blond, humanoid creatures. He also noted
that his own skin became very white, and

It also comes.with a microphone and new sound-input technology that lets
you personalize your work by adding voice or other sounds.
Uke eve~ Madntosh computer, the LC is easy to set up and easy to
master. And It runs thousands of available applications that all work in the

In the last few weeks, posters have
appeared on campus referring to Larry
Savage, Campus Security Sergeant' The
posters have been entitled "Wanted! Dead

of the posters includes: "Larry 'Six-Gun'

posters were printed and posted

Fmally, someone remarked on the
absence of any mention of Iraqi military
conscription, about which I have no
information. Although it is safe to assume
that Iraq,like other nations in the region,
do have an automatic post-high school
draft. But it has to be recognized that the
region in which Iraq is situated is highly
volatile and the nation's physical security
is at risk in real terms as compared with
the concept of the protection of "our way

Not to mention whether or not it is a
way of life we want to protect.

Overcrowding source of Earth's ills
by Honnalore Metzger
Allow me to describe a short news
item 1 heard recently. It seems that
Californians, betrayed- by their dam-fed
paradise, are desperately plumbing the
earth. for its last drops of water. But the
pumps have finally run dry; the land
. cracks, parched, trampled, and poisoned.
Soon Los Angeles and Santa Barbara will
build a huge, environmenta11y-devastating
desalination plant on the coast to keep
the expanding population alive. President
Bush declares California's woes a
"natwal" disaster. Natural.
Here in Washington we shudder as
we drive our cars past yet another new
subdivision; we protest wetland filling
and forest clearing for more houses. We
curse the developers, blame them for the
fact that we have to drive out even
further each year to get away from the
city.
We tell ourselves, "I am not part of
that problem. I don't even eat red meat!
I keep my car tuned up, with a 'Love .
you Mother Earth' bumper sticker on it.
And I will raise my two or three children
to love the earth as 1 do."
I too would have liked to have had a
family. We would, I would teU myself,
somehow escape the encroaching ugliness,
the traffic, noise,landfllls, poisoned
waters, new housing projects.
How many will, in these twilight
years of the twentieth century, still
attempt to live out this domestic dream,
even as the world we love falls apart
around us--because of us?
If the state of our environment alarms
and saddens you today, when there are
. only 5.3 billion of us, imagine the earth
with 6.3 billion (2000). Now imagine 8
billion, then a heartbeat: 10 billion (for
the grandchildren). Where win they live?
How will they eat? Where will .the
animals live? Can you imagine a system
where this growth could actually be

Monkey trial drama food for thought
"INHERIT THE WIND"
DIRECTED BY ANDREW GORDON
WASHINGTON CENTER, FEBRUARY
28, MARCH 1 & 2
by Andrew Hamlin
As the lights 'come up on sunny
Hillsboro, a boy tells a girl that,
according to evolution, her family was
once a bunch of worms. Then he asks,
"What do you want to be when you grow
up?" to the lonely annelid on his fishing
hook. Lawrence and Lee's drama faces
that dilemm~ in grown-up worms, most
of whom see only the dirt blocking their
snouts' progress, and will not look up to
anything beyond that.
The courtroom drama's setting is a
southern town with southern religion, the
accused a 1:>espectacled Milquetoast
blanIdy pondering the prospect of prison,
and besieged by the out-of-town reporter,
a snide cynic who throws out alliterative
phrases like so many fish for performing
seals. They are the setting; center 'stage
belongs to Colonel Matthew Brady (Ken
Adney), prosecuting attorney, and Henry
Drummond, aka Satan (Chip Sherman),
for the defense.

Schoolteacher Bertram Cates (Jimmy Hornbeck caws like a buzzard; he
Lee Needham) supposedly violated a law . becomes one . more thing for the ·defense
by teaching evolution to . his biology attorney to walk away from. A good man
class, but evolution and creation are not has just passed away, and Drummond,
the central issues on trial here. That's although he may have played a part in
sometimes bard to see because of the the death, didn't come to watch
Bibles and prayer meetings and cannibalism.
Adney, a newcomer to the stage, is
comparisons of On The Origin of Species
to The Holy Bible, but watch how
Drummond throws down both books
when he walks offstage the last time. The
moral point--demonstrated even by losing
the case--is that people must have the
right to choose between conflicting

that "Inherit The Wind" has lost
relevancy. In fact. the play has relevance
to each generation sprimg up 'sim:c its
writing. The opposed philosophies may
be Communism and Americanism, Status
Quo and Counterculture, Evolution or
Creation, , but the ieal stories are not
stories of capital letters but of the leal
people pinned under their stamp. Brady is
not an evil man, as Hornbeck honestly
believes. He is a good man who forgot
that freedom does not last long if one
opinion grows enough arms to silence
any opposing mouth, and that the price of
mindless consent is the death of the
mind.
In that way, "Wind'''s philosophy
undermines the science it nominally holds
up to praise, for science, constructed of
"immutable" laws and "irrefutable"
proofs, is just as prone to dogma as the
creationism previously held dear. It also
stands steadfast 'against the "politically
correct thinking" movement afoot on
many college campuses, for to censOl
sexist or racist thought is to censor
thought, period. Watch Drummond as he
exits without holding either book up as
the champion, leaving them side by side
like children in a dark sandbox.
Drummond may be the only grown-up
this world knows.
