Standing on the dock
of a harbor after dark
with all in a slumber in their beds.
So many times I've seen the moonlight
caught in the body
of a soaring spirit
while songs of the ancient keeners
drift across the waves
How long?
how long?
and the deep cries of the whales
are calling out in answer.

Flag 'd esecration brings FBI

Over my mind, open and yawning
Winter quarter's bearing
The seeds of knowledge: learning.

Two flags 'were taped to the floor of the College Activities
Building (CAB) floor this week, which were later removed by
campus Security after consultation with the F.B.I.
A newly passed law 'prohibits desecration of the flag and
proscribes a $1,000 fine for offenders.
The first inCident occurred Tuesday afternoon, when an
American flag was duct-taped to the CAB floor near the
Bookstore. Some students walked around the large, cloth flag,
others .tip-toed over its comers, while several pointedly stomped
across it.
In the afternoon Security received a call from "an
.unknown male reporting a possible incident of flag desecration,"
according to Sergeant Darwin Eddy, who responded to the call.
Secu~ty consulted the F.B.I. via phone for advice in
handling tllis relatively new situation.
Eddy said the FBI Agent advised Security: "for the time
being, recover the flag."
Eddy then ,r emoved the flag from the CAB floor.

TESC student Eric Larson, who owns the flag, later visited
Serurity in order to retrieve it. He was told the flag was being
held, pending further investigation.
Wednesday morning, Eddy interviewed Larson, where
Larson again tried to claim his flag. He was not, however,
allowed to take the flag with him. Larson said Eddy did not
ask him if he had taped the flag to the CAB floor.
Eddy said Larson is not "suspect" in the flag desecration,
but a "possibility."
Wednesday afternoon, a small, cloth American flag was
taped to the CAB floor near the location of the larger flag.
Larson said this smaller flag also belonged to him. "Flags come
\
in all shapes and sizes," he said.
Sergeant Larry Savage untaped the second flag from the
CAB floor Wednesday evening, after another tip from a student.
As he confiscated the second flag, Savage said that the F.B.1.
would be in charge of the investigation as "one of many
incidents" of flag desecration in the area.

The new policy of locking the
campus buildings has been altered. The
CAB now remains unlocked 24 hours a
day, monitored by a custodial/security
person, according to Sergeant Gary
Russell.
When asked why the original policy
of locldng the CAB changed, Russell said
that Security and the Administrators
involved recognized the need for "a spot
for students to study and socialize" after
hours. Other campus buildings are being
locked according to the new schedule,
except the Library, which had a few
minor adjustments in locking policies.
Evergreen president Joe Olander is
holding a community forum to discuss
the ideal size of the College Monday

1.

November 13 from noon to 1:30 pm in
CAB 108.
Olander said Evergreen originally was
designed to support approximately 4,000
FTE (full-time equivalents). Since ·
statistically the demand for higher
education in Southwest Washington is
rising, consultants working on branch
campus plans now say Evergreen can
accommodate 4,500 FTE students within
its existing facilities. Evergreen's current
FTE enrollment is 3,000 students.
Dean of Enrollment Services AmaIdo
Rodriguez and faculty member Paul Mou
will participate in a panel discussion with
Olander about the size of the College at
the November 13 forum.

F.M.L.N. radio representative
speaks about experiences
by Timothy PeUow
Alejandro Salazar, representative of
the Radio Farabundo Marti of the
Farabundo Marti National Liberation
Front, will be speaking at The Evergreen
State College Library Lobby at noon on
Friday, November 17.
He will be speaking about the
F.M.L.N. radio system and the current
situation . in El Salvador. A potluck
reception will be held at 6:30 pm in
Library 4300.
. As a people's radio ' station. Radio
Farabundo Marti is crucial to the
Salvadoran populace. Sixty-three percent
of Salvadorans are functionally illiterate
and television is unavailable for the
majority of the population. Throughout

war-tom EI Salvador, radio has become
the
most
important
means
of
communication.
Founded January 22, 1982, Radio
Farabundo Marti (RPM) has become a
very effective tool for social change
through its power to empower and
inform.
Because of this, RPM is a constant
. target of government military attacks,
jamming, and electronic interference.
RPM's destruction is top priority for the
S&lvadoran army. It is thus forced to
constantly move its location broadcasting
one day from a subterranean shelter,
another from a bombed-out house, and
another from wherever it is relatively safe
to do an open air transmission broadcast

Despite intense repression, frequent
military attacks, and the need to
constantly relocate, however, RPM
manages to get vital information to the
population of El Salvador.
Salazar has experience in several
areas of journalism. He u,rorked for many
years in El Salvador as a photographer
and printer. He used these skiUs to
document the popular movement in El
Salvador - the unions, peasants, women's
groups, students, and teachers working to
resist government oppression in EI
Salvador.
In 1981, Salazar was forced into
exile due to threats on his life by the
"Mono Blanco" ("White Hand") death
squads. During this time he continued

working on publications, and did
work
for
Radio
correspondence
Farabundo Marti. Mr. Salazar also
worked for a time as c~tor of
Venceramos, the official j011lll21 of the
FMLN resistance, before being made an
official representative of the FMLN and
Radio Farabundo Marti.
Salazar is currently on a speaking
tour for the El Salvador Radio Aid
Project. This tour serves two purposes: to
educate United States citizens on the
current situation in EI Salvador, and to
raise money for badly needed equipment
for Radio Farabundo Marti.

Evaluation of goals continues
by Tim Gibson
The Assessment Study Group has
come a long way from the days when
the Higher Education Coordinating Board
demanded a standanlized test for college
juniors and students clamored against a
standardized testing sell-out. ·
The Study Group now has a
$400,000 dollar grant from the state
legislature to fund assessment proposals,
and a guarantee from the HEC Board that
no standardized tests will be used.
Over the past two years, the Group
has asked for, and will continue to
accept, proposals from faculty, staff, and
students that address the question: "Are
our teachers teaching and our students

learning?"
The proposals are serious research
projects, said Group coordinator Steve
Hunter, &hat investigate whether or not
TESC is achieving its teaching and
learning goals.
The Group has received and is now
evaluating proposals from faculty.
Proposals range from Employer and
Alumni surveys that gauge the success of
students leaving Evergreen, to program
studies.
One completed prqposal was a video
documentary of the successes and failures
of the core program "Ways of Knowing."
The video sought to discover 'the effects
of interdisciplinary education on new and

transfer students.
All the proposals thus far have come
from
Evergreen's faculty.
Group
coordinator Steve Hunter said he would
like to encourage any student-originated
proposals that would research objectively
the question of the quality of the
Evergreen method of education.
The specific criteria required for
these proposals can be obtained from
Hunter's office, Library 2218 (866-6000,
ext. 6567).
The Group holds open, weekly
meetings on Wednesdays in Library 2218
from 1 - 3 pm.
At last Wednesday's meeting, the
Assessment Study Group discussed the

fmancial plans for the next two years and
evaluated the initial proposals.
Group members discussed the
importance of creating criteria in each
proposal for evaluating both successes
and failures to avoid results that resemble
promo-pieces more than objective
assessment projects.
"We're opening dialogue on what
works here and what doesn't," said
Group member Marilyn Frasca.
After the addition of almost half a
million dollars to the Assessment budget,
Frasca noted, "everyone is extremely
interested in assessment now."

The proposal, similar to those discussed
at previous meetings, was accompanied
by a new feature -- guidelines for the
conduct of referendums and polls
involving expenditure of S & A fees.
After considerable debate and an
attempt to, for the time being, divorce the
proposal from the guidelines, the package
was tabled until the next meeting.
The next meeting of the SU will be

Lately, more action has been generated
to bludgeon the college instead of
building a community of people within
the college.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised. the
student government hates responsibility.
The entire government is founded on a
method of allowing people to shirk
responsibility. The same type of system
has been tried over and over at
Evergreen, but instead of facing up to
new methods of responsibility they try
the old system again.
Even The Evergreen Free Press
publishes articles discussing responsibility.
Anonymously, of course.
And somehow it is supposed to be
a more accurate representation of people's
feelings if they can attack without giving
their names. What about the people being
attacked? Where are their rigbts?
Evergreen -is in -danger. It is in
danger from its own people. Shirking
responsibility for actions is running
rampant Rumors, anonymous phone calls
and graffiti are actions of people who
don't believe in themselves or their
cause.
They are ·afraid to step forward and
challenge others because they might risk
being damaged themselves. Their actions
are the handiwork of small minds without
the integrity to stand up for whaf they

What these events share in common
is that they damage the college for no
good purpose. Flag flfSt.
Most people at Evergreen probably
think the flag law is not a very wise law.
But why involve the college?
Or why not get clearance from the
administrators, students, and faculty
before putting the college in legal
liability? I would not like to see my S &
A funds, or my college tuition, go toward
fighting lawsuits against the college.
It's . a
matter
of
individual
responsibility, something lacking at
Evergreen. The old saying goes, "Your
rights end where mine begin."
Protesting the flag desecration law is
fme, as long as it is understood who is
responsible for the protest. When
protesters march on campus carrying
banners, the college obviously isn't
directly liable, and the police can arrest
the individual protesters.
When a man in Texas bums a flag,
again there is no doubt he is directly
responsible. But wben a flag is taped to
the floor in the middle of a public
building the officials of the building share
involuntarily in that liability.
No matter, even, that a person
admitted doing it. If a suit were to occur
the coUege .would probably be implicated.
That is unfair to all the members of the
college.
A beuer fonn of protest comes from
the infamous pictures of protest on the
same issue in the 19608 when protesters
wore flags on their bodies. Individual

Evergreen damage repon.
Last week a scurrilous rumor was
heard around the campus. The rumor was
that Evergreen President Joe Olander had
exaggerated the credentials on his resume.
The rumor suggested that the supposed
exaggeration was discovered after
investigations were started at the behest
of an aggrieved administrator. The rumor
was supposedly started when an
Evergreen faculty member discussed it
with his students.
The supposed resume inflation is a
lie.
President Olander showed his resume
to me, when asked, and pointed out quite
vehemently that bis resume did not have
the credentials the rumor had suggested it
did. The other . parties mentioned in the
rumor denied any involvement, but one
student has continued to insist he heard
the rumor from the teacher.
The CPJ publishes an Air Force

anything that doesn't reflect what the

On Tuesday, November 7, 1989, I
came into the CAB to see a American

on the floor to protest the recent law

desecrate it At least with the flag there
was no doubt about who did it.

Ortega makes the right move
by Dan 8numn
What's Nicaraguan President Daniel
Onega going to do?
The press is having a field day with
him after he ended a nineteen-month
cease fICC and took the offensi ....e against
the contrast
The question is: What else can he
do?
Diplomacy certainly hasn't worked.
President Bush refuses to negotiate on
any terms until Nicaragua commits itself
to "democracy." All attempts Ortega has
made to communicate through diplomatic
channels have failed. America has
certainly ruled diplomacy out as an
option.

Two months ago, five Central
American presidents assembled in
Honduras and called for the U.S. to
demobilize the contras by December 5. In
tum, Nicaragua agreed to take further
steps toward democratization. This
deadline is now one month away, and the
contras are showing no sign of leaving.
Why have they stayed? To ensure
"free elections?" One fact the press
neglects to mention is that the contra
raids are not limited to the Sandinista
army alone. They terrorize the citizens as
well, raping, pillaging, and killing. Can
"free elections" be held under these
conditions?
Nicaraguan politics are far from

perfect, but how can they effectively
accomplish anything with the United
States attacking all fronts?
From a military standpoint, the
contras disrupt and terrorize Nicaragua.
The media continues to strengthen the
U.S. governments' stance by portraying
the Sandinista government as "oppressive"
and "communist." Economic sanctions by
the U.S. and its allies have brought the
country to financial ruin. On top of all
that, America is funding the political
opposition. Can you hold "free elections"
under these conditions?
Calling
off
the
cease
ftee
accomplishes two ends. First, it provides
a military counterbalance for the contra's

presence in Nicaragua. Second, it is a
risky but bold move to bring attention to
some of the problems the United States is '
creating within the country.
What are the other .options? Do ,
nothing, and allow the UOlted States to run your election? Give in to the Reaganinspired McCarthyism and become a
"model democracy," possibly like El
Salvador?
Realistically, and despite media
propaganda that claims otherwise, taking
the offensive is probably the best thing
that President Daniel Onega can do in
this situation. Sometimes you have to
slap people in the face in order to wake
them up.

Just exactly where does he stand?

President muddles abortion stance
by Paul H. Henry
You know, George, you're not
fooling anyone with your back-and-forth
position on abortion.
When last we checked in on our
intrepid leader, he was planning on
vetoing the bill that passed Congress
decisively allowing federal Medicaid
funds to be used to aid women
tenninating pregnancies due to rape or
incest. Or were you?
At the time of this writing, no one
was really sure. First you said you
would, to placate the right-wingers you
have sold your soul to win an election
marked by negativism and superficial

sound bites.
Then, as opposition mounted and you
began to realize that your position was
on astoundingly shaky ground, you began
to inch a tiny bit the other way. You
would let the bill pass, but without your
signature.
But then the right-wingers raised a
royal ruckus, and you caved in to them
and agreed to veto the bill so you would
not look like a wimp.
Following your position on abortion
,over the years is enough to give anyone
whiplash. In 1979, as you recall, you
were whole-heartedly in favor of a
woman's right to excersize basic control

of her own body. Pretty gutsy, for a
Republican.
But-you coveted, longed ,for, lusted
after the position of Ronald Reagan's
vice president So you executed a
beautifui flip-flop that Greg Louganis
would envy and supported the "pro-life"
movement, wanting to outlaw abortion
except in cases of rape, incest and to
save mom's life.
If you truly believed that a fetus was
alive, then you would not be in favor of
killing that fetus even though the mother
was raped, right? I mean, a life is a life
is a life, right?
So what you're really saying is that

it's okay to flush'em if the sex wasn't
voluntary, if the woman didn't enjoy it.
Pretty progressive, George.
No, the truth, George, is that you
have never changed your position on
abortion. You're just afraid of the retroRepublicans like Jesse and Jerry and
Phyllis, and don't want to risk alienating
'
them.
So you're perfectly willing to let,
say, a teenaged girl who was raped by
her own father -- impregnating her with
, a baby that will be horribly defonned due
to some recessive gene -- you're willing
to let that girl ruin her life because, you
don't want to ~k lik~ a wimp.

Nuclear weapons come to South Mrica
by Carol B, HaU
For foes of ' apartheid, it's a
nightmare come true: South Africa now
has nuclear weapons.
Israel has joined in a "full-blown
partnership" with South Africa to help
the white-minority produce nuclear
weapons, according to recent NBC News
reports. In return, Israel gained access to
an isolated long-range missile site in
Overberg, South Africa, and a continuous
supply of enriched uranium for its own
nuclear warheads.
NBC said a Central Intelligence
Agency document indicated that the first
Israel-South Africa missile launch was on
July 5, when a nuclear-tipped missile
flew 900 miles to the Prince Edward
Islands in the Indian Ocean off the South
African coast.
According to NBC. the document
identifies Annscor, a South African
military contractor, as the missile builder,
and Urdan Industries, an Israeli company,
was listed as the front company
transferring the missile technology.
Although Israel bas publicly denied
the report, NBC says the secret nuclear
technology deals have gone on for at
least ten years.
If indeed the NBC report is accurate,
it reveals a situation that can only be
described as disturbing and potentially
deadly, especially for those who strive for
human rights and abhor nuclear weapons.
Israel has been South Africa's trading
partner for years, and many people feared
it would one day come to this. But why?
Why would a group of people who've
been oppressed for so long, a people
who've survived Hitler's racist genocide
attempt, join forces with Hitler's cousins
in the oppression of Africans?
As a people, Jews all over the world,
including Israelis, should know and

remember the bitter pain of racism,

hatred and discrimination, so how can
they assist South Africa in racist
oppression of our fellow human beings?
, In my outrage, I am trying to
understand their motivation. Greed?
Maybe. Self-preservation? Probably. Or
perhaps a little of both. Military reasons
also come into play, since Israel and
South Africa share common foes in North
Africa and the Middle East.
But motivations aside, the United
States and the world must now face the
fact that an ou.tlaw nation, the white
racist government in Pretoria, is now
more dangerous than ever. A nation that
murders children on its own streets can't
be sane enough to be trusted with "the
Bomb."
Think
of
the
possibilities.
Considering the history of Pretoria's
white regime, I wouldn't be surprised if
one day they stage strategic nuclear
strikes on apartheid's black townships to
eliminate most of South Africa's black
population, which currently OUUlumbers
whites by about five to one.
Or perhaps they could strike out at
the rest , of Africa, launching missiles
toward neighboring black-ruled nations.
And of course, the threat of nuclear
retaliation will now make it even less
likely that Western Europe and the U. S.
will take a forceful stand against
apartheid.
Nuclear weapons also indicate that
South African whites have no intention
of sharing any of their power with the
black majority, and hopes for "one man,
one vote" are much dimmer now. Of
course, political equality for the black
majority would mean a black-ruled
nuclear power, and South African whites
would never allow this without a fight
Yes, nuclear ' weapons in South

Africa pose a grave threat, not only to
Africans, but the rest of the world as
well. And I hope that American Jews
will join African Americans and others

concerned for human rights in speaking
out against this dangerous nuclear liaison
between Israel and the racists of South
Africa.

Editorial
Don't tread on Dle!
by Suzette Williams
,
Last week the Cooper Point Journal
printed an advertisement for the United
States Air Force.
Over the weekend our answering
machine was ' filled with anonymous
comments calling us everything from
Nazis to imperialists and even threatening
to paint graffiti on the door of the
newspaper office.
Sometime during the past week our
layout paper was stolen. This paper is
necessary for the newspaper's production
and can be used for nothing else.
One anonymous terrorist threatened to

One man on the machine, anonymous
of course, stated that he was positive if
we took a campus poll the majority of
the community would be against printing
CIA ads. This argument, rather than
being "liberal," smacks of the worst type
of censorship.
'.
Popular ideas are not the only views
with a legitimate right to be discussed. In
all
an open forum such as the
points of view may be disseminated and
debated.
It is not the role of the newspaper to

cn

cn,

decide for our readers what is moral or
"correct" for them to read. The editors
and staff do not believe in censoring all
opinions we disagree with in order to
conform to the supposedly dominant
Evergreen ideals.
Even these dominant ideals can be
mislt:ading. Take the case of the military
on campus.
A new student group was recently
formed for military veterans. About 30
students attended their ftrst meeting last
week. The student who fonned the group,
Hugh Moag, infonned me that there are
currently 300 Evergreen students who are
veterans or currently serving in the
military. That's 10 percent of the student
population.
Is their collective voice less
legitimate than four anonymous terrorists
with disguised voices?
The arguments against supporting the
military are valid and probably would
draw no argument even from those who
have served in the forces. But for some
.dents, the miliwY is the only option.
~ lilemandinJ ,lhat the paper not accept
military ads is ~a classist argument. For
poor students who don't want to pile up
I

'

student loans often military service is a
viable option.
I don't like the fact that in this
country young people must be trained as
killers in order to receive an education.
But unfortunately, sometimes this is the
only option for many students.
For instance, my own father joined
the Navy in order to escape the South. If
not for the military's educational benefits,
today he would be a coal miner in West
Virginia.
To all of you anonymous terrorists,
please recognize that although your
opinions are valid, so too are those of the
rest of the community. Don't call for
censorship to drown out the voices of
others.
The editorial policies of the Cooper
Point Journal are developed each year by
the editors with input from the staff. Our
current policy is to consider accepting all
advertisements.
In the same vein, we publish all
signed letters from
students and
community members. There are two
restrictions on this policy because of
space limitations.
If we receive a large number of

letters on the same SUbject, we may
choose to print one representative of all
the letters. Second, we will not print
letters which are addressed to the same
people each week, i.e., a response to a
response to a response to ,a letter. The
will print only the original letter and
one response to that letter.
We also accept articles and opinion
pieces from any community member. We
try to publish all articles.
As these policies show, there are
many ways to convey an opinion besides
anonymous bomb threats. They also show
that the CPJ is committed to making the
paper an open forum of ideas free from
censorship.
If you disagree with these policies
please have the decency to be
accountable for your opinions through
accepted channels before resorting to
terrorist acts.
If the newspaper is to remain free
from censorship, it must remain so in all
areas -- including advertising. To do any
less would deny community members
infonnation based on the "moral"
convictions of a few studenas.

Hysteria not an excuse for guns
, This is in response to Ann Ziegler's
piece about arming security. Great lengths
(half the editorial) were taken to dig up
some examples of violence/crime at
TESC, to show that an armed security
force might have prevented these
incidents.
If you know anything about security
response times, you know they would
rather have showed up late but armed.
The 'incidents' referred to also are just
that - irtcidents, which occurred over a
five year period. They show no pattern.
They are poor evidence for arming

security. In my two and a half years at
Evergreen I've seen much absurdity - but
nothing as absurd as feannongering
demagoguery to satisfy the egos and
inad~uacies of some less-than-cops.
All I see accomplished by an armed
security is some drunk getting shot some
night for making a "false move." If
they're gung-ho for guns, there's plenty
of Tacoma and Seattle neighborhoods for
them to "clean up," if they can take the
heat in "Dodge," real heal

Unequal opportunity
I must ftrst commend the outreach
being perfOrmed by Molly Love, Larry
Jefferson and others for recruiting all
students for the Student Union Board
positions.
However, the Student Union itself
was created from three European students
without any effort to ' gamer input from
the rest of the community (those students
are Mary Lou O'Neil, James Dannen and
Brendan Williams).
Since the majority of students voted
nonetheless for this governance structure
last Spring, I now have an ethics
question for the Union.
If any of these three are selected for
Board positions, will this not create an
ethics issue? To clarify, these three
created the positions, saw to it that
funding was given to these positions, and
because they wrote the policies (Le.,

hiring policies of the Student Union
document), it would appear that the three
students would have an unfair advantage
for the Board positions.
No amount of affirmative action
outreach, letter writing campaigns and ads
in the Cooper Point Journal is enough if
there still appears to be a lack of "equal
opportunity" for the SUB positions. '
I am not trying to deny the three
students the opportunity to participate in
governance, just in holding seats of
power.
I feel this question of ethics needs to
be addressed before the selection of SUB
members on November 10. With all this
talk around campus of student
empowennent, just which students are
being empowered?

'History' misleading
Each holiday seems occasion for a
less thoughtful element of the progressive
community to fabricate and disseminate a
history of the holiday which is snugly
aligned with their own modem agendas.
These obligatory holiday histories
invariably
pit
"pagans"
against
"Christians" in a sort of good vs. evil
drama and with a sort of myopic selfrighteousness reminiscent of the very
qualities of Christianity which they so
freely bludgeon. The Halloween edition
of the CPJ contained one such article,
and, before next month's holidays elicit
reproductions of this annoying theme, I'd
like to make a few comments.
To find such sweeping simplifications
of history in the newspaper of a place of
higher education ought to be acutely
embarrassing to us all.
There have been so many different
kinds of "pagan" beliefs and so many
different kinds of Christianity; but,
completely aside from mythological and
theological matters, the people who
performed the atrocities for which
Christianity is now being held responsible
were mostly peasants in miserable living
conditions, susceptible to group hysteria,
desperate for excitement, greater material
comfort, and whatnot.
'
For modem educated students ' to
reject Christianity because it bas been
blamed for, say, the witch trials, is
equivalent to a totalitarian culture 400
years from now rejecting democracy
because it is said to have been the ideal
for which so many millions have been
slaughtered in the 20th century.
Christian sentiments were simply the
most noblizing justifications available in

Europe for several centuries' worth of
human ambition and maliciousness, just
as notions of equality, justice, freedom,
etc. have been convenient currency
among , both the agents of violence and
the ones who profit off of it in our own
century.
In fact, though, Hannah Arendt for
one, as well as many other even-minded
scholars,
consider
the
widening
acceptance of Christianity to have had a
tempering influence on humanity,
emphasizing such values as charity,
forgiveness, and hope. I think it would be
not just strategic but also actually
enriching, for modern radicals to discover
and 'appropriate Christianity as compatible
with revolutionary ideals, rather than
rejecting its vulgarized form and thereby
abandoning it to people who will use it
to oppress others.
Admittedly, I am not learned about
the complexities which gave rise to the
attitudes and activities which we fmd
abominable, But I am disturbed to see
these complexities so reduced, and the
abominations attributed so carelessly, to
Christianity. The blanlcet glorification of
"paganism" is equally disturbing. I am
not so concerned about blasphemy against
Christianity as I am about blasphemy
against history and, corny as it may
seem, truth. ,
I do appreciate attempts to take our
holidays back from the advenisers and
make the celebrations relevant to our
ideals. Next time please do so more
thoughtfully.

Campus Paperback Bestsellers

March for choice The avenge-age Greener came into
adulthood in the late 70's and early 80·s.
LQng past were the student marches and
mass assemblages for peace and racial
and sexual equality. But the freedoms
ours sisters and brothers fought f~ are
the joys of our generation. For those of
us coming to age in the 70's and 80's,
free love translated into accepted open
sexuality and personal freedom.
Women seeking more than just a
clean kitchen, well dressed children, and
a satisfied husband found ideological
companionship in the wode of women's
organizations such as N.O.W.
Campaigns of feminists demanded
equality in the wode place and in politics,
opening doors .to nQn·traditio~ jobs for
women in trades 'and industry. Inequality
in wages were brought into public debate
and the wage discrepancies were
lessened, although they still ~xist.
The charge of sexual harassment has
kept many a "work place rapist's" hand
at his side as a result" of the ramifications
of being charged with sexual ~ent.
As young college women, facing a
future as participating members of a
democratic society, we have been blessed
with the advantage of a life prescribed by
freedoms won for us by the previous
genemtions. Misogynist politicians and
law makers, however, are teeming up
with holier-than-thou right-wing religious
fanatics in an effort to drive women
down, out of the wode place, off of the
street, back into the home, stripping us of
our shoes and finnly re-establishing us as
the baby-malrers we were born to be.
Luckily women are no longer the
politically weaker sex. On April 9, 1989,
600,000 women and men marched on
Washington D.C. demanding continued
safe and legal abortions; proving to law
makers and politicians that pro-choicers
are not atninority, but a strong
representation of a voting ~rity.
Politicians intensely able to count,
heeded these numbers and began reevaluating their positions on abortion.
On November 12, another march is
being held. This will be a nationwide
march held in every major American city
as a way of showing elected officials
their constituent's demands. These are the
marches and the mass assemblages of the
1990's. Women, students, and all
humanity interested in preserving the.
quality of life and the right to privacy
and free choice, must join together in
unified public demonstration on ·Sunday
November 12.
As the United States Supreme Court
begins to judge on three separate cases
which could reverse Roe-V-Wade and
return control of aU abortions to the state
level, it is of crucial importance that we
command our state ·legislators' allention
with a strong showing of solidarity of
women demanding freedom and privacy

in the issue of unwanted pregnancy and
the right to a safe an4 legal termination.
The march will begin in Olympia at
10:00 a.m. on the steps of the capitol
building. Several speakers from N.O.W.
and the Thurston County Coalition will
begin informing the protestors of the
specific facts and history of abortion and
how we .will have to fight to keep
abortions safe and legal.
Buses will then takes the protestors
to Cowan Parle in Seattle where the
march will begin. The march will end up
at Drumheller Fountain on the U. W.
campus. Numerous speakers from various
human rights organizations will speak.
The Righteous Mothers will entertain the
crowd along with Afri-Rythms. Roundtrip
bus tickets are $6.50.

forget the UFO incident. Dahl told people
about his sighting anyway, but later
claimed that "weird things" were
happening to him and withdrew his story.
So all we curious people are left with
is questions. Is the,Maury Island case the
victim of a sinister coverup? Is it only so
much modern folklore? I doubt that we
will ever know.

sabotaged.
Later, Harold Dahl told investigators
that he also was contacted by · Ii
mysterious man.
The day after his sighting, Dahl was
invited to breakfast by a man who
appeared at his home. At breakfast, the
man proceeded to tell Dahl, in minute
detail, everything that happened to him
the day before, as .if the man had been
right beside him.
Later, according to Dahl, the
mysterious man threatened him, saying
that if he "loved his family" he had best

Britain's New Musical Express called
The GoreHounds this band "Irish
trash/dog rock cultists with Jesus and
Mary Chain style hammering snare and
nail scraping feedback."
Lovely line, but I have to say this
disk is a letdown. Hammering snare
they've got up the yin-yang, true, but the
Jesus and Mary Chain dudes are smart-they change the beat and the tempo
every now and then.
The Gorehounds only know the twobeat "Wop BAM Wop BAM Wop BAM
Wop BAM" thing, and as for the
feedback, there's just not enough of it
You get a teaser every now and then,
like the diarrhetic burst of whines at
"Cargo Cult"'s end, but mostly they lean
on fuzz distortion and echo. This,
combined with a toneless singer and the
relentless "Wop BAM Wop BAM Wop
BAM Wop BAM", makes the whole
thing frightfully homogenous.
But despite all that, this band has
possibilities. "The Day My Love Turned
Sour" has a great melodic chorus. "Cargo
Cult" has some really gonzo lyrics that
blend the cargo cults of Africa, existential
pain, and flying saucers ("Ship comes
down in a blaze of light/Weird tall
humanoids come in sight/Five long
arms'n'big red eyes/Beckon us to come
inside... Getting
friendly
with
the
crew/Thinking we're the chosen few.")
And the leadoff track, a cover of
Kenny Roger's "Ruby", is amazing. The
"Wop BAM Wop BAM Wop BAM .Wop
BAM" thumps across craclding guitar and
vocals that reach our ears across the
abyss of eons, caught in the cosmic spin
dry cycle of the universe.
If the Gorehounds dropped a
drummer, added a guitarist, and hired a
producer who didn't flatten out their
energetic attack, they'd really be
dangerous.
Agony Column, a four-piece thrash
metal band from Texas, could show the
Gorehounds a thing or two about loud,
ugly mayhem.
Lead singer Ritchie Turner never
sounds the same from cut to cut.
Sometimes he screeches, sometimes he
growls.
On the boogie shuffie "Blackjack"
he wavers liquidly like Bon Scott.
AC/DC's old singer. In many spots he
sounds uncannily like Grover from
Sesame Street.

mUSIC.

It's disconcerting to hear Grover
sing lines like "Temptation is the Devil
and his automatic weapon ... Backed by
battalions of greed lust and gain/Rabid
soldier kill themselves/The front lines go
insane/66,
66,
66
six-guns!For
SATAAAAAN!"
Kudos to the inimitable Turner
ferocious drummer Charlie Brownell and
Austin High School, who had the good
sense to ban this band's music from its
campus. Could these fUle, young,
outstanding gentlemen be alumni by any
chance? Hmmmmmm ...
"It Only Happens On Halloween" is
a limited edition flexi-disk from
Gregory's Funhouse, who seem to be
Coney Island's answer to the Butthole
Surfers.
The song kicks off with some
spooky noises, then the singer comes in
