He urged his listeners to act responsibly on their own moral values concerning war and disarmament, even if this involved civil disobedience. "Whatever social change we can be proud of has been brought about because good people have broken bad laws," Father Berrigan pointed out. He illustrated that America has had a long history of civil disobedience from the Amer American ican Revolution to the anti anti-Vietnam Vietnam War movement. Father Berrigan himself was sentenced two years ago to eight to 10 years in jail for disposing of some confidential plans for a new nuclear warhead being assembled in Pennsylvania. He and eight other friends convicted on the same charge have been ap appealing pealing the judge's decision to higher courts in hopes of a vic victory tory for "higher law." Meanwhile, Berrigan has been traveling around the country trying to stir public sen sentiment timent for disarmament. He re re-fered fered to the crime he has been , convicted of as the "first act of disarmament in the United Future budget planned States in 35 years." Berrigan justified his break breaking ing of United States' law by ex explaining plaining that he places the law of God, humanity, and con conscience science above the law of the state. He warned that if Americans fail to acknowledge this higher law, they are in danger of becoming analogous to the German citizens who submitted to the Nazi's terrible authority during World War II. In such a society, Berrigan stated, "The courts become the legal arm of murder, the legal instru instrument ment of high crime." Thus, the Priest continued, "the end of the world will be legal." Father Berrigan revealed de delight light that his church has recent recently ly taken a leadership role in the peace movement. "Even the Catholic Church has awaken awakened. ed. That is some achievement!" the Priest chuckled. "That is something like breathing life into a sphinx." After what Berrigan called "a shameful silence" during the Vietnam War, the of of-fical fical church has at last put in a good word for consciencious objectors and civily disobe disobedient dient Christians. Father Ber Berrigan rigan attributed this growth in social consciousness among Bishops to the plight of the church in Latin America as well as public opinion about the by Stephanie Merrick Although just in the initial stages, Willamette is planning the budget for fiscal year 1983-84 beginning June 1, ac according cording to President Jerry Hudson. '...there is not enough money to do everything...' The expenditure side of the budget involves estimating the costs for the coming year.

From here, the budget is composed, usually V Father Daniel Berrigan's message to the Willamette Community was a strong belief in the awakening of the human spirit against war. He pushed toward weapons. nuclear freeze., Father Berrigan shared his optimism with the audience that an enormous awakening in America and Europe was overcoming what Dr. Robert Lifton, of Yale University, had termed "psychic numbing." This numbing, characterized by a callousness to human pain and suffering like that ex experienced perienced in Hiroshima after the bomb, is being replaced by intensified spirit and mobilized during January, and then sub submitted mitted to the Finance Commit Committee tee of the Board of Trustees for approval or modification. If the Financial Affairs Com Committee mittee approves the budget, it is forwarded to the Excecutive Committee of the Board of Trustees and upon recommen recommendation dation sent to the Full Board of Trustees for final approval. "There is a pretty far reaching involvement in the various aspects of the budget," Hudson noted. "There are op opportunities portunities for a representative faculty group and student group to make suggestions for a broader based input and ob objective jective for the budget." According to Hudson, Willamette always achieves a balanced budget. "This sometimes means that there is not enough money to do everything we'd like, and then we're forced to make crucial decisions within the budget." "We've assumed a fairly flat budget for next year," Hudson concluded. "We do not envi envision sion having a whole lot more money to spend. It should be about the same as this year." courage, according to Berrigan. "The people can intervene. The people historically have saved the people." Berrigan called his listeners to take responsibility for the fate of their world into their own hands rather than relying on politi politicians cians to bring about peace. Berrigan believes that the people's task will only be com completed pleted when there is "no accep acceptable table method of murder." Hence, to Berrigan, a nuclear Senate student by Mari Wildt As had been planned earlier in the year, the ASWU Senate formed a committee of the whole body during its last meeting to discuss student apathy and its reflection on the Senate. Only 16 senators and 2 officers, instead of the total of 28, were present. Kevin Spillane, senator from Matthews, led the discussion concerning a recent ques questional tional he had sent to the senators dealing with student and Senate concerns. After 45 minutes of debate, the group narrowed their goals to two that will be implemented in the following semester.

"We need to have the Senate working together as a whole." Senator Rick White of Baxter pressed for the need to have students on the university com committees mittees report to senate week weekly. ly. "The Senate is the hand and the students on these commit committees tees are the fingers that touch the decision making. We must pull the other half of student representation under the Senate's umbrella. We all must work together as a whole." During new business, a by bylaw law revision was presented and passed allowing the establish establishment ment of ad-hoc committees to deal with specific senate senate-related related issues. Students other than senators may sit on these committees which will work under the current four standing Senate committees. John Eshleman, senator from Delta Tau Delta, commented, "Students are our only form of leverage - we must get them involved." 2 COLLEGIAN H n r--3 T; r r-i r-n r n F3 r3 L Vj La W Vy f-J L.. j L"ki Li L i C- 1 While Clay Meyers, Oregon State Treasurer, spoke against apar theid regimes, he failed to mention anything on Willamette's in investments vestments in South Africa. Barb Herr photo Meyers speaks for investments by Tia Reese Clay Meyers, Oregon State Treasurer, spoke on "Investing in South Africa" for the Nov. 8 University Convocation. The presentation allowed Meyers to speak on his selected topic followed by a panel's comment on the speech. Meyer's opened the con convocation vocation by explaining the con concerns cerns which "prompted his visit to the subcontinent: Human rights, international relations, and world peace." He spoke of the insecurity that some felt over his trip, and of his numerous briefings by the Episcopal church, various government departments, of officials ficials of the Republic of South Africa (RSA), certain peoples' organizations, and the United States Ambassador to the RSA. Despite all these points of view pressed upon him, Myers declared that he went to South Africa with only one predisposi predisposition: tion: That he was against racial segregation. Myers said his in intention tention was to "condemn the system, and encourage those who oppose it." Myers enumerated the in injustices justices done to non-whites by the Afrikaners (the white ruling party in South Africa). He told about apartheid, the complete segregation of blacks and whites; he listed many things such as banning and detention, restrictions put on anti anti-apartheid apartheid activists, both black and white; the prohibition of mixed marriages and the in inferior ferior education offered to non non-whites whites were also mentioned. Myers then urged students to encourage public officials to end apartheid in South Africa, encourage aid to the black front, and to work for the suffer suffering ing people. Three panelists then com commented mented on Myers' speech. Bill Duvall, the third panel member, remarked that he felt disap disappointed pointed and a little embarrass embarrassed ed that the treasurer had not mentioned Oregon State University's and Willamette University's funds in South Africa Both universities have endowment funds invested in indirectly directly in South Africa through business investments.

Private donations from faculty, staff, students not on the meal plan and sororities also accompany the SAGA donation. Willamette's SAGA director, Jerry Curtis, cites the psychologist Abraham Maslow and his influence on one of SAGA's "Founding Fathers" as the primary reason leading to the SAGA corporation's overall "humanistic viewpoint." The SAGA branch at Willamette contributes 40, 80 and $1.22 respectively for each missed breakfast, lunch and dinner. The accounting works like this: SAGA'S meal card sales originally charge students $4.85 per day, with $2.42 of that amount attributed to food cost and the rest to labor and related costs. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are respectively giaoiattamaaa Coupon 0 B B worth one sixth, two sixths, and three sixths of the food cost. But the fast donation is dis discounted counted further. SAGA employs what they call a "missed meal" factor which ac accounts counts for a predicted percent percentage age of purchased student meals that won't actually be eaten, this figure currently predicts that 29.7 percent of the meal privileges won't be claim claimed ed at mealtime. SAGA applies this statistic to the number of fast participants and calculates the donation, not from the total number of sign signups, ups, but from 70.3 percent of them. The philosophy evidently assumes that roughly 30 per percent cent of those signing-up would miss those meals anyway. SAGA's Jerry Curtis points out that it's basically a break-even endeavor, although actual cost savings never really receive direct calculation.

The paper, is layed-out in Washington D.C. and is satellite transmitted to various printing stations across the nation. (Olympia is the loca location tion of the northwestern plant.) USA Today is a flashy, tempting newspaper and one would think stiff competition for the Statesman-Journal, one of the 81 Gannet-owned papers. Not so, according to Statesman editor, Edward Basset. In fact, Basset said, the national edition was originally not intended to be sold here but Gannet was convinced to do so by Statesman publisher John H. McMillan. The Statesman organization has reasoned that the main interest to most local residents is just that-local. And in that way the Statesman will naturally always have a market,' especially since there is a great deal of local advertising.

Editor Marie Cummings and the Jason staff are asking that all entries be submitted to the UC Publications room no later than Dec. 1. "Thanksgiving break would be a perfect time for people to polish off their poems and drawings while they're polishing off their turkeys," said Cummings. "Although the Woods aids center with multitudinous senices by Allison Mills Lisa Woods, a senior at Willamette, is involved with a program called Switchboard Basset also noted that the East Coast view of the Washington D.C. assembled USA Today is not always shared by the West Coast, the latter of which the Statesman will always be in touch with. Basset did admit that USA Today might cut into a small part of his paper's vend vending ing sales, but added those are not the biggest slice of the customer pie - subscriptions are. The Statesman has a 70 percent saturation rate in the Salem area even taking into consideration the Portland Portland-based based Oregonian. Both Basset and formai statements made by Allen Neuharth, Chair ChairmanPresident manPresident of Gannet Newspapers convey the inten intention tion that USA Today is to be merely a companion to local publications. Also, since it is new, there is the possibility USA Today might fail. The Statesman therefore sees no Jason doesn't come out until April, we'll need that time to at attend tend to the technical drudgeries. When it does come out, it'll coincide nicely with spring so we can have a double celebration-at the end of a dark, dreary winter and a celebration of the talent we have here at Willamette," com commented mented Cummings. The Jason editor continued by saying she is "willing to bet that virtually everybody has a poem or a drawing that they're secretly very proud of. We'd like to see some of that closet for Help. This service provides 24 hour crises intervention and referral. There is a broad range in the various individual ser- threat to its future. USA Today is one of only two nationally vended papers, the other being the Wall Street Journal. Basset said the latter has not hurt the Statesman's sales and is another reason for believing USA Today's local ef effect fect will be minimal. It would seem safe to assume that if the Gannet gamble does prove successful other chains may join the national-marketing fray, but Basset disagrees citing evidence of many newspaper chains such as Knight-Ridder and Thomson Newspapers who are showing a keen interest in electronic communications: TV, radio, cable franchises and the like. However, most U.S. newspapers today are becom becoming ing chain papers or folding, on only ly 34 percent of them remain in independent. dependent. It does seem possi possible ble then that USA Today will be what daily newspapers are to become in the far future.

Rather than trying to break new ground, Petty has chosen to purify and refine that formula which has made him the popular and acclaimed artist that he is today. Tom Petty is a Tom Petty purist.

A chorus like "Deliver medeliver meBaby take this heart, set it freetake this chance, take this dreamBaby take this heartDeliver me" is practically a rock and roll cliche, but when sung by Petty it breaks out of the ordinary. .Vocally, Petty has become less strained without losing forcefulness. His voice is more relaxed, and resonates better than on any of his previous LPs.

Petty uses the sound as a vehicle for his simple but revealing obser observations vations of life and love. What is more poignant than "A woman's body is only flesh and bonesHow come I can't let it go?" The self-actualizing of "Yeah you got luckyWhen I found you" finds Petty singing into a mirror.

At worst, Petty is predic predictable table American superstar. At his best where most of his ef effort fort is spent, he is an artist who accepts and defines his own limits as a musician, and somehow, by always staying within himself and never deviating from his dense patented mainstream sound, thrives on the narrow confines which he himself, the public, and the record companies have placed around him. 7122 COST Give to the American ?

H - FKI THRU SATURDAY CEvTrPEPE November 29, 1982 5 Good life eludes Hispanics by Stan Shaw By the year 2000, the majori-. ty of California's population will be primarily Hispanic. All across the United States, Mex Mexican, ican, South and Central American immigrants and the mixed race of Chicanos are becoming a dynamic part of the American composite. As Salem residents, we are lucky to be near a microcosom of these people who can provide us a picture of their few joys and many hardships. The largely Mexican popula population tion in Marion County has its origins from seasonal laborers who traversed a yearly migratory route beginning in Texas and running through California, Oregon, Wash Washington, ington, Idaho and eventually returning to Texas. Some do chose to stay here; others were displaced by new farm technology. Most live within the cities of Woodburn, Amity, Independence, McMinnville, Dayton, Jefferson and Salem. These immigrants do not want Welfare but have no other option - if they can even get it - when no one will hire them. Hector Pichardo, Antona Shedlo, Francisco Loera and Tomas Moralez are four members of - and are con connected nected to - these communities. All are educated and articulate, yet represent three very distinct groups within the Hispanic community - here and at large -and they are able to best for formulate mulate a general feeling of some important features about a complex and varied culture. Hector Pichardo is an engaging man who, by his own admission, orbits in "intellec "intellectual tual and cosmopolitan circles" of the local Hispanic communi community. ty. He is a student teacher at Western Oregon State College and a part-time disc jockey of a Saturday afternoon (12:30 p.m.) Spanish Radio program on Woodburn radio station KWRC. Orginally bom in the oftentimes gang-warring bar barrios rios of Los Angeles, Pichardo took the only outgoing ticket available to a Mexican tough, the Marines. He was willing to trade the seeminly eventual fatal union with a switchblade for what turned out to be the less likely meeting of a bullet, grenade, or landmine. His sur survival vival of Vietnam payed off with a Gl loan that enabled him to get the educational skills to live a safer and happier life. And he is. Life has been kind to Pichar Pichar-and and he truly seems to suc Francisco Loera's Spanish businesses in Salem. ceed in the part of "intellectual," these days an often trite and abused label. He is quite comfortable to lean for forward ward with an impassioned gaze and pinpoint idealogical currents in Central and South American politics and violence, themes that seem to be the product of many late night discussions among his group, the "latinophiles," which he describes as a collection of hispanics with widely different cultural homelands alona with anyone else, including whites, who possess the necessary mental currency and a Latin in interest. terest. And that's where his in interests terests lie. He does participate in local fund raising drives, try trying ing to earn scholarship money for young hispanic students. He does play the part of role role-model model to lower income His Hispanics panics and whites, showing them it is possible for the brown man to "make it." But Pichardo's heart real ly belong to the struggles of Latin American peoples who for so long have been involved in revolution after revolution. He hopes, as they do, to rid their countries of the corrupt and violent leaders who always seem to float to the top. (In fact, Pichardo believes that even eventually tually only communism will bring peace to the south, partly due, he said, to U.S.-backed. gift shop, Del Norte, located on 17th dictatorships that have left a bad taste in the mouths of the people there.) Sometimes those international concerns are so persuasive they clash with local ones: He occasional occasionally ly tries to play revolutionary or South American Indian music on his program and finds his audience unwilling to listen. They would much rather hear the accordian saturated, some sometimes times repetitously arranged and written music originating in Mexico. But even though he may feel a bit angry, he will play what they want to hear. He moves in different circles than many of his listeners but Hec Hector tor Pichardo is not alienated from them. Quite another perspective is that of Sister Antona Shedlo from the Spanish Apostolic of the Catholic Diocese of Port Portland. land. She lives in Salem and works in Marion County assisting new immigrants, helping them read and write their English mail and fill out application forms for jobs. She is not hispanic, she's anglo.

In Instead, stead, after much soul sear searching ching and urgings of her pea peasant sant friends, who told her "Madre maybe you can help us more in the United States," she returned to the U.S. to speak out against U.S. support of Central American dictatorships which she has personally seen responsible for hundreds of civilian deaths. But the con conjured jured image of a fire breathing militant is not at all what Sister Antona appears to be. On the contrary, she is a pleasant and friendly woman with a deter determined mined energy that drives her often to a 19 hour work day, seven days a week. She will work with immigrants, youth groups, bible study groups, political and social interest groups; She assists with Spanish-language mass; She helps troubled immigrants who have wound up in jail late at night or early in the morning because of language dif difficulties ficulties with police, who must get out before immigration agents arrive and discover their lack of the allusive "green card." Although her experience with Hispanics originates in the political fermement of Central America, she is somewhat dif different ferent from Hector Pichardo. She moves in the lower income circles - the poor ones who are more concerned with survival than political rebellion. And what she sees is not particular particularly ly pleasant. Her charges are without food, home or friends, yet desperate to find a job and throw off the useless feeling that one gets in a country where there is anywhere from 30 to 50 percent unemploy unemployment, ment, in hopes to make enough money to improve the lives of children and wives left behind. Sister Antona deals with these situations everyday and knows that the stereotype very few Hispanic-owned Greg Schroff photo of the "lazy Mexicans" is not true. These immigrants do not want Welfare but have no other option - if they can even get it -when no one wiii hire them. Sister Antona attributes this to racial prejudice in Oregon, "I blame a lot of it on movies and books," she said. Strangely enough she even felt part of the problem was the slowness of the Cath Catholic olic Church to accept Spanish speaking peoples. Only she and two priests speak the language for six communities that have more than 1000 Spanish speaking residents. But that problem and legal and local political battles surround surrounding ing the Hispanic community she has very little time for. She is too busy ministering to the needs of those in desperate straits. Sister Antona hopes others, the more settled Hispanic Community, will do the rest. Francisco Loera and his friend Tomas Moralez are representative of the settled Hispanic Community. Both are longtime residents of Salem and both, like Pichardo, are Vietnam veterans who got educational help from the Gl Bill. Loera owns a small gift shop on the comer of Center and 17th street that caters to the local Mexican populace. It is a small place, tightly packed with the usual gift shop fare: cups, records, clothes and lots of T shirts, mostly all with Spanish phrases. Now in his early forties, Loera is a man who is unhappy with the way he has been treated by the white world.

The follow following ing are some highlights of the experience. by Pete Tiller Roger and Ricky (their aliases) were on the run. Two days had passed since their Nov. 19 escape from Spokane's Larch Prison. Earlier they had stolen a six-inch buck knife and a Colt .38 Police Special from a car in Vancouver, Washington. With these sole possessions, the pair arrived in Salem at 10 p.m. the night of Nov. 19, hungry, penniless and armed. The scene is set at an aban abandoned doned house, burned out over a year earlier, one block east of Lancaster Mall. The windows and doors are boarded over, the roof is collapsing, the floors are thick with mud. A resident of a nearby apartment complex has seen two suspicious men lurk lurking ing around the house and calls the Salem Police Department about 4 p.m. Friday afternoon. Officers Jim Anglemier and Mike Connolly arrive soon after and enter the dark house in search of the two trespassers. On a rotting couch, covered to his neck with an old shower j Hi i curtain, lies Roger. Anglemier sees a gun butt protruding from under the man's leg, and he im immediately mediately disarms him of the pistol. Ricky is huddled in the dark nearby. The knife lies harmlessly on the filthy floor. Both dressed in greasy jumpsuits, Roger and Ricky stand outside with their palms against the back of the house. They are polite. They crack jokes. They have a strange story to tell. They have been hitchiking across the U.S. from the sunny town of Jacksonville, they ex explain. plain. They don't know how they ended up in Oregon, but they're seriously thinking of turning right around and going drunks: Ire of Salem cops home, Ricky assures us. Their mutual lack of ID is due to their strong belief in traveling without it. "Why complicate things?," they query. The pistol which at first they didn't recognize, is reluctantly admit admitted ted to have been purchased for $20 from some guy off the streets. After finding the house's owner, the policemen decide to charge the pair with trespass trespassing ing and take them in. I chatted ' with the handcuffed Ricky in the car. "Getting cold," I noted.

Because he looked like Charles Manson, Jr., I sus suspected pected he would have no trou trouble ble at all mingling with the other prisoners. He was also very worried about getting a nice Marion County dinner because he hadn't eaten in two days. Anglemier asked why they hadn't just gone to the Salvation Army. Ricky said he didn't like the kind of people who patron patronized ized those places. Was Roger, who was in Connolly's police Officer Jim Anglemier prepares to begin another car, being taken to the same place, Ricky asked? . "Of course," said Anglemier. "Can't split up two hitchiking buddies, now can we?" At the police station they were instructed to empty their pockets. Roger was the wealthier of the two; his trove consisted of a small hank of twine, a lighter, a wadded square of papers, a pipe, and what appeared to be a garter. Ricky had only a pipe. They were then given a pat pat-down down search, fingerprinted, and put in two one-man holding cells. Enter Corporal Taylor, whom Anglemier de described scribed as "one of the best things the city's got." His job is to question each incoming prisoner and see if they can't reach some agreement, pre preferably ferably the truth. Ricky folds first, and discrepancies emerge in the duo's story. Ricky is described by jail officials as "scared." The amount of paperwork is staggering.

As we leave the two, now identified by their real names, a sentence for auto theft and forgery, posses possession sion of a concealed weapon and escape charges await them in Spokane, and Roger has an arrest warrant waiting for him in Coos Bay. "Very profitable," stated Anglemier of the arrests. By 9 p.m. we were ready for a little serious cruising on the Gut. You know the scene. We went up and down for a bit, gave away warnings rather than tickets for various ! i I i I i ' f I j i i ! i i i t j j Jo I , f - ' - technicalities such as brake lights or one headlight out. Half an hour later, the situa situation tion at Dunkin' Donuts erupted into a scene from a crime show. A group of 25 to 30 teenagers were in the parking lot and adjacent street while two or three of their number mixed it up with the two policeman. We screeched up and Anglemier lept out and began getting the crowd off the street. In front of Anglemier's car I saw this big curly-haired guy with a cast on his forearm wrestling with a policeman while the crowd hurled taunts and abuse. By this time three more police cars had pulled up. their red and blue lights playing weirdly across the hostile scene. Another policeman put a handcuffed kid into Anglemier's police car. He's 18, he's arrested, and he's all alone. He is not, however, scared, and he takes several opportunities to make this fact clear. In fact, he claims he took on "seven f ' cops couple weeks ago" in the same parking lot before he was subdued. The fray breaks up as the four or five real instigators are arrested for disorderly conduct, and one by one the cruisers' cars slowly disperse. Anglemier returns. He's been wrestling and his pants are muddy. He informs his passenger it's county jail, not Juvenile Hall this time. He's not worried; he's been down before. "How's your record?" Anglemier asks. "It's clean," he says. "Almost." Before going into the pro processing cessing room where he de delivered livered Ricky and Roger four hours earlier, Anglemier gives the kid the score. " A word of caution," he says. "If you treat me with respect, I'll treat you with respect. We'll be straight with you if you act right." The kid declares he isn't going to "pitch any shit" to them and he is taken inside for booking. Several minutes later, the curly-haired wrestler is brought in. Earlier he had been doing much kicking and screaming. Corporal Taylor implores him to "act like a man" and get his ass up the stairs, which he does. The melee apparently stem stemmed med from a youth's refusal to accept a parking ticket served him while illegally parked in the Dunkin' Donuts' parking lot. The curly-haired fighter was known to police as "one of the assholes who started the fight at the Armory last summer." Back on the Gut after writing Incident Reports. A few more warnings and one ticket are given. The Dunkin' Donuts incident has con considerably siderably tainted the young cruisers' party atmosphere and the streets are noticeably clearer. The El Charro restaurant is a favorite hangout for migrant workers, and an occasional site of trouble.

I was beginning to wonder if I would ever find anything to occupy my Sunday afternoons, but thanks to these people, I don't have to worry about it. At the beginning of the NFL players strike, I was suffering through some pretty severe withdrawal symptoms. I would wake up on Sunday mornings and unconsciously turn on the T.V. only to find old westerns or make-believe sports shows. For the next hour or two one could find me curled up in a comer, all watery eyed and shaking, staring up at my Fran Tarkenton poster. That would never suffice, however, and so I would spend the rest of the day the young Bearcat harriers who competed well against some of the best collegiate runners in the United States.

Saginaw Valley, Michigan, took second with 167 points, follow followed ed by Wisconsin-LaCrosse (169), New Mexico Highlands (181), Willamette (211); Malone, Ohio (222); Moorehead State (231), Wisconsin-Stout (252); Adams State, Colorado (254); POINTS strike welcome searching in vain tor something to make my body and soul forget what it was craving.

Although the women's team did not win the right to go to na nationals, tionals, two individuals, Gayle Roth and Kara Crisifulli, did qualify and competed in the 5000 meter women's race.

"Playing against Simon-Fraiser makes you realize how good a team you have to be, how hard you ' have to work to be competitive regionally." . "There were a couple guys who really got their heads straight about what they had to do, but most really were not ready, and a team like Simon Simon-Fraiser Fraiser will blow you away when you're not ready." Despite the defeat, Victor noted some exceptional ef efforts. forts. "Joe Wells had a superb game, Tim Meehan had a really good game too." When asked aobut future encounters with Simon-Fraiser, Victor replied: "We'll be com competitive petitive with them next year and maybe the year after that we will be in a position to beat them."

Willamette concentrated on an air attack for most of the time they were on offense. Hoesing finished the day com completing pleting 28 of 58 passes for 299 yards and three interceptions. His major targets during the day were seniors Larsen and Bruce Pielstick. In their final games as Bearcats, Larsen caught 14 passes for 159 yards while Pielstick hauled in 11 for 105. In looking back over the season, Head Coach Joe Broeker said he felt the team had no games in which they were flat in terms of effort. He is looking forward to next year, which will be his second season as head coach of the Bearcats. He feels that next season the players will have more experience with the system he and his staff are try trying ing to implement. He belives the Bearcats will win more of the close games next year that they lost this year. They lost four games during the season by a total of 11 points. Coach Broeker also looks forward to the team being more competitive physically and in increased creased in size and strength.

In light of the present situation in Central America, Vietnam must be remembered so it will not be repeated. The black granite panels of the memorial are inscribed with the names of 57,939 Americans killed or listed as missing in action in Southeast Asia from July 1959 to the spring to 1975. If the Vietnam War is not remembered in the future, each of those names may be reflected by the names of our close friends, our brothers and sisters, and perhaps, ourselves, in the dedication of another, and similar, war memorial. Choice fated Willamette's policy of mandatory campus residency for all freshmen and sophomores under the age of 21 forces some students to un un-. . dergo the "dorm experience" without choice. Ex Exceptions ceptions are currently granted by Tim Pierson, Director of Residence Life, for what he terms "ex "extraordinary traordinary and compelling circumstances," par particularly ticularly medical problems. Perhaps ad administrators ministrators need to be more closely involved in campus residential facilities to see the other pro problems. blems. Pierson claims that students learn skills in dealing with people while living on campus, in including cluding toleration and social problem solving skills. Yet, it is well known among students that campus residency means studying in the library or other places due to the noise level in the residence hall and eating at VI Ps or A & W because dinner was intolerable. The campus residence becomes a place to socialize and, yes, learning to communicate with others and going to functions are social skills, but some students require more than this from their living ar arrangements. rangements. The dorm experience is not a positive one for all students and it is the student who can best determine for himself if the op optimum timum learning experience occurs on or off cam campus. pus. Music boosted Willamette's Music Department, with the financial aid of the University, the Oregon Arts Commission and the National Endowment for the Arts, is sponsoring a Distinguished Artist Series which will begin in January. The revival of this series, which failed from poor attendance two years ago, marks an important effort on behalf of the Music Department to provide students with an opportunity to expand upon their Liberal Arts education. Willamette Univer University, sity, as represented by its music department, has upheld its responsibility to provide students with opportunities which compliment this education. It is now the student's responsibility to support this effort by purchasing discounted tickets from the Music department, to ensure that this series, along with other such opportunities, will con continue tinue in the future. Immaturity displayed Those who have seen "Animal House" remember well the movie's classic food fight scene. John Belushi leads an all-out food war which involves an entire school cafeteria, and it's very funny. The scene is a lot of fun to watch, and it looks like it would be a lot of fun to do. The difference between the movie and real life is what the movie doesn't show us. We don't see dismayed food-service workers spending a lot of ugly hours cleaning up our mess. We don't see somebody's pretty new dress being splattered with baked beans. We don't see the rest of the student body paying for the formidable cleaning costs. And, of course, we don't see the rest of the world doing without while we buy food and then toss it around. Of course, nobody has any business infringing on our right to pull plenty of zany, crazy college stunts, such as the recent Baxter food fight. And we've all heard the "rights and responsibilities" lecture several times. But frankly, wasn't this just plain a pretty lousy thing to do to those who had to deal with the aftermath of our wild craziness? Looking back and saying "We didn't mean to cause any problems" is a pretty sorry gesture; it's worthless compared to having the foresight, con consideration sideration for others and yes, guts to restrain ourselves in the first place. Tower rash The proposal to build a clock tower and foun fountain tain in front of the new library deserves rethink rethinking. ing. The University, because of its renovation and building projects, already lacks the money for pressing basic needs such as the remodeling of SAGA kitchens that should be attended to first. How can one honestly endorse a luxury like a fountain when the blatant and unacceptable state of SAGA kitchens is a daily reminder that there are many necessities crying for funds? Are the residence hall concerns to yield to a foun fountain? tain? Will the practical concerns of faculty salaries be forsaken for a tower? The administration, in its Capital Campaign, is erecting the outer shell of a great university. The only problem is that the university does not need these frivolous monuments at the expense of student and faculty life, the core of a great university. UXK &JZ1, WHAT THE CE.AL.

With this in mind discussions have occurred involving various Offices and organizations and numerous students, faculty, and ad administrators ministrators during the past several weeks. Some students have consistently raised the question that if a ghetto party is racist, aren't such activities as the Casino Night, the Hawaiian luau, the Jose party, or a Mafia theme function equally racist? And, shouldn't all such events be banned, if the ghetto party is criticized? To me, there is a world of dif difference ference between ethnic slurs and poking fun at gamblers and gangsters, but that is not the central point. The central point is defining an activ activity ity as racist is not the act of holding an ethnic theme event, but whether the pur purpose pose of the event is to display respect for and to celebrate distinct ethnic cultures), a if it is to stereotype or poke fun at peo people ple of another culture. Ethnic obser observances vances and celebrations are fundamen fundamental tal to our cultural identity; acts of disrespect, conscious or unintended, make such activity racist. My hope is that the Willamette com community munity will support a wide variety of positive intercultural events, e.g.. Expres Expressions sions and the International Festival, for they enable us to be educated and enriched about much of what is mean meaningful ingful and satisfying in being human. And, I fervently wish for the positive cam campus pus dialogue which the Ghetto party precipitated to continue. Sincerely, Jerry Berberet Dean, CLA Collegian: Who says Willamette is not a microcosm of the real world? Only on this campus would a food fight and a fast take place in the same hour! At dinner on Nov. 17, 221 students were consciously fasting while a few diners in Baxter's dining room were con consciously sciously in the midst of a food fight. The fasting students were demonstrating their humanity and desire to help stop world hunger while the food fighting students, besides demonstrating their immaturity, seemed to feel they had more than enough food to waste in a food fight. Although it is a shame the food fight occurred, the ironic timing of the two events could not have been a better ex exhibition hibition of a real world situation: many helpless going to bed hungry while a few powerful going to bed unaware. Malia Dinell NAP Coordinator Collegian: With regard to the "Ghetto Function" incident I am happy to say, this incident has become an issue of the past! The incident has increased the level of awareness of the Willamette Commun Community ity and hopefully it has increased our sensitivity to other groups- ethically and culturally. The letter submitted to the Collegian by the Presidents of SAE and AXO cer certainly tainly reflects their responsible efforts and open-mindedness to the incident. It took a while for the incident to be sorted out in the minds of somt students, those who have sorted it out that is. As recent as the last publication of the Collegian some concerned stu student dent was yet to get the true facts. I say to you, "concerned student," get correct in formation before you ever attempt to state your opinion. Now, not only is your opinion worthless so is your information.

Many students have unfor unfortunately tunately "buried their heads in the sand" rather than even con consider sider that perhaps there is some problem with racism here (and for that matter Oregon). Comments like "I'm not prejudiced against Blacks but I sure wouldn't marry one" sure sound racist. It is fortunate that the expressions of racism are nowhere near Ku Klux Klan, but neither can we take pride in being the most sen sensitive sitive campus in regard to cultural differences. There is a need to properly deal with the ON CAMPUS Fad to Feed bags! They're the newest, hottest thing since roller disco and mood rings, and just about twice as groovy and with-it as those two old dinosaurs of the fad kingdom. Feed bags are fun, they're easy, and they hardly cost a penny! What are feed bags? And where did they come from? These questions have been popping up right and left lately in all the best fashion circles. Very simply, feed bags are those cloth tubes that cowboys used to fill with oats and hang around horses' noses to feed them. Today's feed bag craze started with wild University of Kansas students who started wearing feed bags from the Ag department to class. The look caught on, and soon anybody who was anybody on campus was wearing a feed bag both to study and to party! Feed stores did a booming business; the supply was soon exhausted. Everyone simply had to have feed bags! The feed bag movement quickly spread to the east. In New York City, that hotbed of high finance and high fashion, feed bags began appearing in the heppest places. Fifth Avenue, Studio 54, Central Park, Times Square-you name it, and feed bags were there! Feed bags replaced leg warmers as required dress for practicing dancers. On Broad Broadway, way, Lauren Bacall was seen proudly stepping out of her limo in a gold silk dress with a sequined feed bag to match. Halston and Calvin Klein released their visionary designer feed bag lines; Brooke Shields appeared in television commercials pushing the pro product duct ("Nothing comes between me and my feed bag" piped the problem on both the student level and the administrative level. One of the biggest obstacles in overcoming our narrow perceptions is the bla blatant tant lack of cultural diversity of the faculty, staff and students. In looking first at the lack of diversity among faculty and staff and the reasons for it, it is apparent that first of all the ad administration ministration is finally trying to redress a poor record. There have been a number of minorities hired within the last few years (Wilson Au, Junpei Sekino, etc.). The reason for these addi additions tions has been in part the voluntary Affirmative Action policy, which has been in effect for the last six to eight years. In just the last year the policy has been broadened to include the handicapped and Vietnam-era vets. The policy mandates that sweep campus spunky teen dynamo). Prices for authentic feed bags soared to hundreds of dollars. Artists were fascinated by this new medium. Andy Warhol painted a replica of a Camp Campbell's bell's Tomato Soup can on a feed bag. Christo strung a thou thousand sand and one feed bags be between tween the twin towers of the World Trade Center! A giant, 40-foot high bronze feed bag was unveiled in front of the newest bank in Boston. A new era in American art, Feed Bag Neo-Expressionism, was bom. Feed bag graffitti became popular with youth. Such wit witticisms ticisms as "Feed bags are dead! -Nietzsche," followed by "Nietzsche is dead! -Feed bags" began to appear on bathroom walls and subway cars all up and down the East Coast. Feed bag jokes were all the rage. Feed bag wall hang hangings ings became a must for home decor. Mayor Koch announced that New York City would no longer hand out keys to the ci city, ty, but rather feed bags filled with big, shiny apples. Feed bag bumper stickers were everywhere, the two most popular being "Have you hug hugged ged your feed bag today?" and "I'll give up my feed bag when they pry my cold, dead fingers from around it!" Naturally, opposition sprang up to feed bags. "Feed bags are destroying our youth!" became a common cry from religious circles. Parents com complained plained that their children were breaking their piggy banks and spending their allowances on feed bags. Pickets were set up around some stores selling feed bags, but to no avail. Feed bags were now, they were wow, and nothing could stop their meteoric rise to stardom! generally all full time appoint appointments ments must be the result of open external recruitment and Affirmative Action. So why did the minority faculty in 1980-81, with such a concerted effort, number less than 3 percent? The major reasons seem to be threefold. One. reason appears to be Salem itself. In the greater Salem area there are 231,000 people of which a mere 920 are Black (0.4 percent) and 8170 are Chicano (3.7 percent). A second reason seems to be the lack of an established group of minority faculty in the first place. The third reason is that there is not a large number of trained minority faculty and staff to draw upon when an opening occurs. Therefore, further measures need to be explored in order to J Feed bags are now finally on their way to the West Coast and nothing short of nuclear holocaust will halt this chic jug juggernaut. gernaut.

Ryan Holznagel THE CROW'S NEST Draft Two interesting develop developments ments have arisen in the Reagan Administration's at attempt tempt to proceed with the registration of all 18-24 year olds. The first is of significant import to anti-registration forces, the second portends ominous signs of further government action against the resisters. As has been reported in various papers, U.S. District Judge Terry Hatter dismissed the non-registration charges against David Wayte. Hatter's ruling stated that the govern government ment cannot prosecute only active resisters, after evidence had shown that Justice Depart Department ment officials admitted to do doing ing so. Also, there was some question whether Reagan adhered to the 30 day time period necessary for public discussion of an issue before inactment of the registration proclamation. Other resisters are considering the Wayte case as key to their appeals. overcome these barriers. One suggestion made by Randy Lowry, Assistant to the Presi President, dent, is that Willamette could send representatives to col colleges leges that graduate minorities qualified in education. This would illustrate a sincere in interest terest in obtaining minority faculty and staff. Although Af Affirmative firmative Action is a positive first step, it is admittedly slow and moreover meaningless without qualified applicants. The expansion of a minority student population also faces many of the above obstacles and some unique problems as well. Like the faculty situation, some inroads have been made recently. The University has a terrible record of attracting and keep keeping ing minority students. In terms of recent minority graduates there were never more than six in one year from 1974-1979. During the 1980-81 academic year the total number of minori minority ty undergraduates was only 48 (or 3.7 percent). In general, however, minorities don't want to come here for the same reasons that minority faculty don't flock to Salem as well as the general perception of Willamette as a WASP school. This year of course there has been a noticeable upswing in minority enrollment, thanks mainly to the athletic depart department. ment. For instance, Rich Glas, the basketball coach, has had great success in attracting minorities to a team that had no minorities on it one year ago. fight not On the other side, a bill has entered the House-Senate Conference Committee that proposes students would have to register for the draft before they would be eligible for finan financial cial aid. The bill is being held up because of problems with verification. However, it did easily pass the Senate, with the House only questioning how such a process could be verified. Beyond that, the Selective Service is in the process of comparing its lists of names with driver's license records as well as using Internal Revenue Service records. The government has been successful in instilling in the people that the nation needs registration to call names more quickly in the case of a "na "national tional emergency," and avoiding the ugly word "draft" and with it the image that the registrants would go off to fight a war. Many resisters have lost their case because the judge What can be done about the image of Willamette? Obvious Obviously ly more than is presently being done if it is largely left up to the athletic department to in integrate tegrate Willamette. One possi possible ble solution is to hire a minority student for the summer to talk with other minority high school students around the state. Another aid could be the hosting of a high school event designed primarily to bring minority students to the cam pus. In addressing the present situation, the foremost need is to get a constructive and positive dialogue going on the problem of cultural insensitivity and solutions (rather than on the Ghetto Party per se). At hand is a marvelous opportuni opportunity ty to promote some needed changes. Secondly, the course offer offerings ings need to be closely examin examined ed in not only content, but also the variety of offerings available. History, for instance, is one area where it is easy to give the standard WASP ver version sion of history and neglect minority contributions. Thirdly, the Intercultural Stu Student dent Counselor position should be made full time. Along with this should go an increased level of intracultural forums and events, and the expansion of Expressions in terms of the actual number of students it reaches. Hopefully "The Ghetto Party" can provide the impetus to work posiiive changes and make the campus a better place for all. over believed that if a person didn't want to go into the armed forces, they could file as con conscientious scientious objectors when a draft was imposed. Appearances, however, are deceiving. The registration is the draft. Reagan as much as flaunts it by saying that we have to have registration as part of a "get-tough" policy against the Russians. A "na "national tional emergency" means war. Would we be tough with the Russians if we had a list of names only to be used in case of a flood in Arkansas? It is important to remember that those who register against the draft are as American as any veteran. People should not have to be forced to fight some "police action" in some swamp, and the total wars that we have faced twice would mean only annihilation today. Students must continue active protest against registration; otherwise it will be too late for everyone.
