However, since none of the presidential or vice-presidential candidates have received a majority of the votes, those races are still ,indecided. Sophomore Josh Norman was elected ASWU Secretary after the primary elections held April 10 and 11. Out of the 816 votes cast in the election, Norman received 60 of the votes. Junior Thea Wilmarth, his com com-. . '-titor, received 37.62 of the votes, while write-in candidates received 1.72 of the votes. "I'm just a happy guy. It's been a very long week.

Dilworth received 58.3 of the 777 votes cast for treasurer, while his opponent Loren Myers received 37.97 of the vote. Write-in candidates re received ceived 3.73 of the vote.

For those of you who like an international perspective, the Wil Willamette lamette International Student' s As Association sociation (WISA) has something you may be interested in. On Satur Saturday, day, April 15, on Jackson Plaza (Cat Cavern if it rains), from 1 2p.m. to 4p.m., WISA is presenting the 1 6th Annual International Extrava Extravaganza. ganza. It's theme will be, "Taste the World," and will feature foods from around the world. One of the features of the Ex Extravaganza travaganza is the children's area being organized by Daniel Nilsson. It will provide day care so parents can drop their children off while they explore the many activities offered. Nilsson says there will be many international games to keep the children entertained such as fish fishing, ing, sumo wrestling, and origami. There will be entrees featured from many countries including In India, dia, Japan, Korea, Ecuador, and Italy and tokens for the food can be purchased for 50 cents. There will be live music pro provided vided by Balafon, a marimba band for anyone who is interested indanc indanc-ing. ing. Other live entertainment being offered will feature cheerleaders, the martial arts, Scottish dance and classic guitar. There will also be a craft sale with merchandise such as hats, jew jewelry, elry, stones, crystals, pottery and beads from a variety of countries including Nepal, Peru, Thailand and other African countries. Mamiko Tateishi, one of the coordinators of the Extravaganza and the president of WIS A, said, "It will be a great festival, with deli delicious cious food, lots of activities, fabu fabulous lous entertainment, and good things to sell. I hope everyone will be there." Augusta Parra, a member of WISA, and one of the orga organizers nizers of the event, is very ex excited cited about the Extravaganza.

Parra credits much of the success to Tateishi and Donna McElroy, the club advisor. She says they work together very well and have been doing a wonderful job. One of the best parts of the Extravaganza for Parra is that it shows Salem there is an in international ternational community at Wil Willamette. lamette. Yameen Ali, another organizer of the Extrava- ganza, is very ex cited about the event being held outside this year. "It will be in a much bigger area," Ali said.

The possible penalty is six months in jail. But there is also this case: A homosexual solicits oral sex. The possible penalty is five years in prison. For that reason, the Louisiana Supreme Court was told Monday, a law banning the solicitation of an unnatural sex act is aimed spe specifically cifically at homosexuals and should be thrown out as unconsti unconstitutional. tutional. At issue was the 1 992 arrest of a man in New Orleans who was charged with offering an under undercover cover police officer $20 for oral sex. Defendant Johnny Baxley has never been tried for soliciting an unnatural sex act, a felony, be because cause the case has been bouncing around court. Last July, Criminal District Judge Calvin Johnson ruled the law unconstitutional, saying that because the offense carries felony penalties, while soliciting prosti prostitution tution is a misdemeanor with a lighter maximum sentence, it dis discriminates criminates against homosexuals illegally. Louisiana's sodomy law de defines fines "unnatural sex" as just about anything other than standard het heterosexual erosexual intercourse. Assistant District Attorney Mark Pethke contended that Johnson could not throw out the case on the basis of a possible sen sentence tence until a con conviction viction had been obtained. "It is now a hypothetical situation that simply may not arise," Pethke argued in asking the court to throw out Johnson's ruling and order a trial. Pethke also said the law does not discriminate along lines of sexual preference. For example, he said a hetero heterosexual sexual woman arrested for solic soliciting iting oral sex from a male also would face a felony charge. But defense attorney John Rawls said the state's intention was clearly to target homosexu homosexuals, als, who he said "are trapped in their sexual orientation and can't do anything about it." "What right does the state have to say that one type of sex for sale is 10 times worse than another type of sex for sale," Rawls ar argued. gued. "The law. ..is here to say that lesbians and gay people are scum." Rawls contended that the law is unconstitutional because het heterosexuals erosexuals generally would be in interested terested in a type of sex the law considers "nor- mal," while ho- mosexuals would engage in oral or anal sex. "If you want to make prosti prostitution tution a five five-year year offense, make it equal," he said. Rawls said the law also enables police offic officers ers to set up and harass suspected homosexuals. In Baxley's case, the arrest was made near a bar frequented by homosexuals. No tape of the alleged mon monetary etary offer was made by the of officer, ficer, Rawls said. "In court, it will be the word of a gay man against the word of a police officer," he said. "That's not a fair fight." The court did not indicate when it would rule.

The burst, of violence Mon Monday day came as leaders of the Zapatista rebel movement and government representatives were announcing they will meet in ten days for preparatory talks on a new round of peace negotiations. Neither rebel representatives nor the mediation commission led by Roman Catholic Bishop Samuel Ruiz commented Tues Tuesday day on the clash. Local news media reported that a column of several dozen armed men dressed in uniforms like those used by the Zapatista NationalLiberalion Array entered the remote village of Bademia on horseback early Monday. HumbertoVelasco, a munici municipal pal trustee, told the Cuarto Poder newspaper that the villagers, mostly members of the ruling In Institutional stitutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, refused the armed men's demands to join their group. Bademia resident Humberto Lopez Hernandez, who was wounded in the firelight, told re reporters porters from his hospital bed jn Comitan that the invading group went from house to house, de demanding manding that the villagers turn over any weapons or radio equip equipment. ment. The two sides exchanged gun gunfire, fire, leaving four men dead and at least nine wounded, Lopez Hernandez said. Three of those killed were members of the in invading vading group and the fourth was a villager. It was unclear who fired first. The clash occurred shortly after midnight Monday, at about the time when Zapatista leaders and government representatives announced they would meet in Larrainzar on April 20 to lay the basis for talks on ending the 16-month-old conflict in the south southern ern state of Chiapas. It was impossible Tuesday to determine whether the armed men were Zapatistas or another group imitating rebel dress. Villagers told reporters that the men wore brown long-sleeved shirts, olive green slacks and ski masks like those used by the rebels. They said the invaders were armed mosdy with old hunt hunting ing rifles or machetes. Residents in rebel strongholds have complained in the past about the Zapatistas pressuring them. Contract ends: No script for the next 100 days in Congress by Jeffrey L. Katz Congressional Quarterly During the first lOOdaysinCon lOOdaysinCon-gress, gress, a preprinted program could tell you not only who the players were but what they were doing. All you had to do was follow the House Republicans' campaign mani manifesto festo known as the "Contract With America." It accurately scripted the House agenda and likely outcome. But there is no firm program from now on. The outlook is for chaos - and suspense. Dominating everything will be the Republicans' quest to reach a balanced budget by 2002. It will be a massive undertaking, demanding cuts of more than $1 trillion over seven years. That will require making diffi difficult cult choices. It is one thing to vote for a balanced-budget amendment but quite another to cut the programs necessary to bring the budget into balance. "It's going to be tougher medi medicine cine to swallow," said House Rules Committee Chairman Gerald B.H. Solomon, R-N.Y. 'The heavy lifting starts now," agreed Rep. Charles W. Stenholm, D-Texas. At the same time, the Republican-controlled Congress will take the first crack at rewriting the nation's banking laws, its public housing policies and farm programs. Republicans will also try to reduce regulation of everything from tele telecommunications communications to the environment. Action may also begin on such complicated and contentious issues as restricting immigration and over overturning turning affirmative action programs. Issues such as school prayer and abortion will splinter Republican unity when they come to the floor. The Senate, meanwhile, will still be chewing over many of the con contract tract items sent to it by the House, moving at the measured pace it is accustomed to. Different actors will emerge from behind the shadow cast by House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R R-Ga. Ga. President Clinton, who has kept LI a low profile since the 1994 elec election, tion, will get a chance to reassert himself. As the Republican-controlled Congress aims more bills at his desk, Clinton is beginning to raise the spec specter ter of casting his first vetoes. The Senate will increasingly serve as a back backdrop drop for the presi presidential dential ambitions of four of its members, par particularly ticularly rivals Majority Leader Bob Dole, R R-Kan., Kan., and Phil Gramm.R-Texas. Budget machinations will focus more attention on the Budget Committee chairmen, Rep. John R. Kasich, R-Ohio, and Sen. Pete V. Domenici, R-N.M. And heretofore little-known Ap Appropriations propriations subcommittee chairmen will become poster children for the latest GOP efforts to slash funding for the arts, Amtrak or energy assistance. One thing is certain few: mem members bers are likely to look for another contract to guide their actions. And no one is more reticent about such a suggestion than Gingrich. "I suspect I would be a remark remarkably ably short-lived 1 Speaker if I were to get up in the conference to tomorrow morrow morning and say, 'Hi, I have a new contract,'-" Gingrich said. "I think ev everybody erybody in our party has gone about as far down this particular I think everybody in our party has gone about as far down this particular road as they will tolerate," -Newt Gingrich, Speaker of the House road as they wm tolerate." Some Repub licans say the frenzy of the first 100 days has kept them from adequately explaining their motives to the pub public. lic. They generally agree that Demo Democratic cratic attacks on their plan to limit spending on school lunches took a toll because the GOP did not take time to build its case. Gingrich ac acknowledged knowledged in a television inter view that it was "a PR disaster." The next months will be domi dominated nated by budget and appropriations action. The budget process usually fo- cuses Congress on discretionary spending, the programs on which Congress decides each year how much to spend. This includes every everything thing from building fighter planes to funding Head Start. ft Congress makes these decisions in 13 appropriations bills. Appro Appro-priators priators will be under intense pres pressure sure to cut the fiscal 1996 bills. But these programs only account for about one-third of the budget. Everything else is largely on autopi- O lot. Now Republicans are taking a close look at such "mandatory" spending programs as Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps, farm price supports, federal pensions and more. However, the largest entitlement program, Social Security, is off-lim-its because of its political sensitiv sensitivity. ity. "It's going to be one of the great efforts of modern times to remake the federal government so we can get to a balanced budget," Gingrich said. " Doyle discloses HIV condition CANON CITY, Colo. - Tom Doyle, who launched his bid for the 3rd Congressional District seat two weeks ago, has disclosed he Is HIV-positive, but he will continue to campaign anyway. "I tried to fool myself," Doyle said Friday. "I accept the fact that I have AIDS, and I want everyone to know my condition." Doyle, 41, a Democrat who has served as chairman of the Fremont County commissioners since being elected in 1993, ac acknowledged knowledged Thursday he is gay. While he will accept support from the gay community, Doyle said he does not want his candidacy to be limited by his sexual orientation. "Sexual identity is a small part of the person that should be looked at," he said. The most important issues to be looked at are integ integrity, rity, reliability and consistency." Drinking affects Missionary killed learning, study says DURHAM - Tests in rats suggest that young people who drink alco alcohol hol face a greater risk than adults of hurting their learning and memory abilities, says a Duke University researcher. The study showed that adult rats who had the equivalent two drinks had no memory effects. But the same amount of alcohol in young rats depressed nerve re receptors ceptors in their brains.When the nerve receptors are impaired, they cannot receive electrical impulses from other nerve cells. FREETOWN, Sierra Leone - A Roman Catholic missionary from Ireland was shot and killed when rebels ambushed his car, church officials said Tuesday. Brother Edward Sean Kerrigan, 57, was attacked Mon Monday day on the road between Freetown, the capital, and Bo Town, where he worked, the Catholic mission said in a statement. He died from gunshot wounds to his stomach, the statement said. Another micsionary traveling with Kerrigan, Brother Ben Kemara, es escaped caped unhurt. Kemara sought help, but when he returned, Kerrigan had died. Two missionaries returned to the scene to retrieve Kerrigan's body.

Compiled from Collegian Wire Services m 1 i The Collegian 3 April 14, 1995 WISH kitchen nears the finish line after delays by Brandy O'Bannon Staff Writer After many delays, kitchen con construction struction in WISH, which began a week before Winter Break, will be completed Friday, April 14. " Early last fall, the Collegian reported that many changes to WISH, Willamette's international theme residence hall, were being planned for this year. The original kitchen, which could only be used by stu students dents on a limited basis, was to be demolished and in its place new of office fice space for the Admissions Office would be created. That process is still underway; it is expected to be completed by May 1. The "second aspect of the reno renovation, vation, converting a Resident Director' s apartment into a new resi residence dence kitchen, is the first major com component ponent of the renovation to be com completed. pleted. Since Goudy Commons was built, the trend has been to dismantle little used kitchen facilities in resi residences dences for use as more productive space. So far, space in Lee and York houses the offices which were for formerly merly in the University House, Doney's kitchen area is now used as classrooms, study areas and lounges. Lausanne also has additional study areas and Mathews will eventually house the new Writing Center. So far, no plans have been made for Baxter's kitchen area. From the beginning, the project has been large and sometimes proven difficult. Shintaku said when plans for renovation were being made that he felt it was important that WISH still maintain a kitchen area due to its "international food emphasis." This proved difficult, however, since negotiations had to be worked out with Bon Appetit and permits had to be acquired. Some residents of WISH ini initially tially voiced negative opinions about the changes since they felt they were ill-informed. These problems have been partially worked out; a bulletin board in the lobby informing stu students dents of construction progress has helped all parties to become more aware. Shintaku knows that for WISH residents there has been "obvious inconveniences throughout the whole building process." However, once the job is completed, he feels that residents will enjoy the ben benefits. efits. Residents at WISH seem to agree with Shintaku's opinion. Sophomore Erin McNicholas feels that the kitchen "will be very nice once it's done but the interruptions have been annoying." Her room is close to the construction and noise has been frequent. However, this kitchen, McNicholas feels, will be more beneficial than the old one since it is large. Furthermore, McNicholas is glad this new kitchen will be available to students on a much larger scale. Beatrice Murch, another WISH resi resident, dent, echoes Shintaku's and McNicholas' statements. Murch feels that the process has "dragged on too long." She realizes that the longevity of this project is due not only to the university, but also to the "0 : ; - t' 1 : " 1 1 ' t , I 5 . i I "' ...

She expressed concern since the due dates keep being pushed back, from Christmas Break, then to Spring Break. Shintaku calls the addition of the new construction a "win-win situ situation." ation." All people involved have worked to make the area aestheti aesthetically cally pleasing. A new set of double doors which matches the rest of the residence decor leads into the kitchen area. Unlike the old kitchen, the new kitchen will be open all the time. Shintaku is pleased that many of the old kitchen' s elements have been retained. For example, cabinets, the refrigeration and freezer system and sink and disposal systems, all were part of the former WISH kitchen. Small kitchen accessories, such as dishes and cups, have also been re retained. tained. Among other things, a new oven and microwave have been pur purchased. chased. Plans also call for a few tables, probably ones WISH already owns, will be moved into the kitchen to create a casual dining experience. Furthermore, the formal lounge area at WISH, will be able to be con converted verted to a multipurpose dining area, when necessary. Other small changes, not as no ticeable to the occasional visitor to WISH, include some renovation to the area which was formerly a guest bedroom and bath and the adapta adaptation tion of basement rooms. Shintaku is especially pleased that a basement room has been rehabilitated and will soon become the fifth satellite com computer puter lab at Willamette. Other resi residences dences hooked up to Willamette's computer system, include Baxter, Matthew, Doney and Lausanne. In addition, Shintaku hopes that in the future, organizations who ask permission of WISH, will continue to be able to hold special events which incorporate the new kitchen.

Although the people responsible for these fliers believe that they are doing their candidate a favor, they have hurt everyone. Not only do the candidates lose credibility, but the very position they seek loses the respect of the Willamette community. In the short term, irresponsible stunts reduce the electoral process to a petty game. But there is a long term danger as well. Somewhere among the eligible voters, there are men and women who would make great Presidents, Vice Presidents, Secretaries, Treasurers and Senators. The barbaric state of our current elections, however, is discouraging to even the most optimistic among us. Even if these potential future leaders have not lost their confidence in student government, they might still choose not to run for fear of attacks on their character, attacks which are both unfounded and incredibly juvenile. These childish antics have had another devastating effect. In all of the commotion and ill will generated by them, voters and candidates have lost sight of the most important aspect of the elections: the issues. Even the most issue-oriented of candidates have been forced to divert their energies to combatting the misrepresentations which skirt the thin edge between an insult and slander. Meanwhile, ideas and beliefs about ASWU, how it should be run and its priorities have been shoved to the side. In the end, we will all pay for these mindless acts. Elections Board has too much power Whether or not students agree with the decision by the Elections Board to allow write-in candidates in the general election, ore thing is certain: the decision should not have been left up to them. Although write-in candidates are always allowed in the primary election, the run-off ballot ha only included the two main candidates for the last two years. This year, the Elections Board decided to allow a space on the ballot for write-in candidates. Opponents of this idea argue that the Senate is interpreting the ASWU Constitution. The Elections Board points out that before the last two years, write-in candidates were allowed in the run-off elections. The Constitution says, "At this election, only the names of the two candidates receiving the hi ghest number of votes shall appear on the ballot." Whether this means that write-in candidates can also appear or not is open to interpretation. But not by the Elections Board. Interpretation of the Constitution is mentioned nowhere in the Constitution or the Bylaws as being a responsibility of the Board. According to the Bylaws, "The 3oard is authorized to assist the Secretary in the administration of elections." They are supposed to make decisions on the violations of rules and help appoint Committee members. If the policies and decisions on the fundamentals of the election are changing from year to year, then they are being interpreted, clear and simple. It's about time the Senate took this power back. It is imperative that the Senate amends the Bylaws or the Constitution to clarify the rules on write-in candidates. Whether this reform takes place by explicitly excluding write-in candi candidates dates from the run-off elections or by using a plurality instead of a majority to determine the winner of the run-offs or some other way can be decided after a healthy debate. The debate, however, must take place. The rules must change. Lessons freshmen should know by now For Willamette's freshman class, that wonderful first year of collegiate discovery is drawing to a close. Hopefully, they have realized that much of a college education does not take place in the classroom. These are the lessons students truly remem remember. ber. The following are important les lessons sons for the class of 1998. 1. In high school, there was no better way to deal with rejection by the opposite sex than by taking a nice, long shower. But in the semi-communal atmosphere of dormitories, find finding ing that personal time can prove to be more difficult than at home. That is why the astute, adaptable fresh freshman man will have by now made note of the best time in his hall to take a long, personal, intimate shower. 2. There is a lifetime worth of experience and trial and error to be found at Goudy. One of the most important things freshmen have learned is that no matter how much you hope the situation will change, Goudy will always screw up food, even rice. Smart freshmen have come to know that it does not matter that rice is probably the world' s oldest cooked food ; Goudy ignores the culinary wisdom of the ages and continues to mess up rice. 3. Although the canny freshman realized that he or she did not have to buy any alcohol first semester but simply go to a fraternity house, the gravy train came to a screeching halt with the completion of Rush in February. This has led the sharp freshmen to find out all the names and temperaments of members of the exclu exclusive sive "21er" sect within a two dorm radius. 4. This next lesson applies especially to those freshmen at Kaneko. Seldom does one have to leave the room, scarcely the floor, and almost NEVER leave the TIUA building. Calls of nature can very easily be answered via the balcony, and a miserly freshman can stash enough leftovers from their board meals to last several days before the food becomes dangerous. Just down the Kaneko halls, freshmen can tap into the life life-blood blood of the campus: e-mail. Between the telephone and a trusty Gemini connection, one can deliver crafty, carefully planned excuses to professors. 5. By October, freshmen probably learned for sure whether they could tolerate their roommate or not. For those who found that they loathed their cellies, the From the Editorial Board Christopher Ames following time was one of bewilderment, of trying to figure out how to deal with the person who sleeps across the room. One strategy is to carefully examine the cellie's class schedule, normal eating time, activi activities, ties, etc. and learn to craft one's own schedule to diverge as much as pos possible sible from roomie's itinerary. , 6. Figuring out that the sky bridge is at best an inconvenience at times, and at worst a royal pain in the ass on a full stomach is a simple lesson that most freshman learned a long time ago. Crossing the street is much easier most of the time, especially for residents of predominantly freshmen i Matthews who realized that Kaneko is simply better than Goudy. However, one must ask oneself if the convenience, and far superior rice, is worth risking life and limb. 7. Lesson 7 is a simple Internet entity: alt.sex . Enough said. 8. The inserts that often come inside the Collegian 1 are not trash. They are meant to teach freshmen yet another lesson: Credit cards are worth ten times their weight in gold. Discover, Visa, and MasterCard will give a $500 credit line to anyone! 10. As a matter of pure survival, most freshmen need to have learned a lesson about some of the people one is likely to encounter on the streets of Salem. The man speaking to himself, whom one might pass on the way to Subway or Capital Market, is probably not quietly reciting Psalms or Emerson to himself while on a stroll to kill time before presenting a World Views or similar lecture. In all likelihood, he is insane. That is to put it bluntly, but the lessons we learn are not always nice. Salem, in addition to hosting a couple of state penitentiaries, is the location of the state mental hospital. That building freshmen pass on the south side of Center Street while heading to Hollywood Video does not have wrought iron rods over the windows for decoration; they are there for a very good reason. Occasionally, a patient will become rehabilitated, or run out of money, whichever comes first, and be set free to rejoin society. A savvy freshman should be able to identify these poor souls by now when he or she runs into one on the street. Name of student arrested not needed Dear Editor, After reading the column "Stu "Student dent arrested for TIUA fires," I wondered to myself why the name of the person arrested was published. I felt a strong anger while reading this column. Since TTUA students came (be (beginning ginning of February), this vandal vandalism ism had been terrifying and threat threatening ening all Willamette students and TIUA students also. There is no doubt that we cannot forgive what he did to all of us. Therefore, it was important for the students to know that the person responsible for the fires and the graffiti was removed from Willamette. Furthermore, it is obvious that he was old enough to be responsible for what he did. , However I really do not see the reason why the Collegian had to publish his name. It seems to me that the paper is focusing on the result and is ignoring the problems which led to it. I understand that it seems that people consider it natu natural ral to publish the name directly, but publishing the name like this vio violates lates human right not only for the person him or herself but also for the people around him or her. Among many reasons why I wrote it violated human right, one of them is that a person arrested will not be easily accepted in the society when she comes back bacause the right had been infringed. Furthermore, a family of his or her will be in an unreasonable trouble because of this. As far as I am concerned, in a situation like this, a person's name should not be published, no matter what kind of crimes she commits, no matter how old she is. I do know it is the matter of the right for people to know what is going on, responsibility of the vandalism, respect for himher as a human being, and respect for his her privacy. Therefore, while I understand the difficulties you face while writ writing ing about this, but I want you to know that there were people who got offended and had strange im impression pression about the article.

The loss of his IBM job in Silicon Valley inspired him to turn philosopher - here you have his home grown response to rising crime and chaos in the lovely state of California: Many excellent suggestions have been suggested toward the solution of social ineq inequity uity and discord, yet even the most brilliant of them have simply not been practically appli applicable. cable. One of our wisest men, for example, advised the extermination of all lawyers, a suggestion which certainly would do won wonders ders for the state of our society. Unfortunately, between the panic this would cause among the 50 of the popula population tion who either are now or have been ac acquainted quainted with or even actual members of the bar would certainly be as detrimental to the world as the original menace, not to mention the cruel and unfair burden which widespread slaughter would surely place on the shoulders of our local morticians and gravediggers. Creation of a new world in space, though it would certainly carry the potential for a cleaner and more organized society, could certainly not be expected to flourish benefi beneficially cially under the care of creatures still under undergoing going the process of natural selection. Until technology reaches the point at which we can select naturally at several million times the previous rate, I propose that we cease to expect rational behavior of a species histori historically cally proven to be irrational and suspend all contact between humans on the basis of its volatile and unpredictable nature. I admit that this solution could appear quite drastic to the average American, but I remain certain that the notion of pure elec electronic tronic interaction is not truly as far away as some might think. Though we may be steeped in primitive emotionality part of the time, most of our daily activities indicated that, in business and entertainment, at least, we are ready, nay, eager to approach the rational level of elec electronic tronic thought. Commerce, for example, is already securely based on credit currency and electronic advertising. Most business is transacted through fax and other methods of electronic media, and even the most stone-age fundamentalists are powerless to feign surprise in the face of telephone conversation with inanimate ob objects. jects. Even if they have never been reached out and touched by touchtone, very few adult parents could help but feel at home with the very same friendly monitor they entrust to raise their children. Environmentalists might find this world a bit less accommodating. For them I suggest meditation on the incredible benefits we might give to our mother earth by retiring from it to technology. Just think how clear the air would become after the millions of inconsiderate commuters ceased to harass one another on the freeways every morning and worked through the internet, instead. Overpopulation would be a thing of the past, as VR would be installed in every home to substitute for that very activity which causes so much disorder, jealousy, and messy en entanglement. tanglement. The perpetuation of the race would not be abandoned, of course, as the genital portions of sensory input suits could easily be adapted to receive the necessary emissions from both male and female donors suitable in IQ, stat stature ure (Those likely to require less space and nutrients would be preferenced.) and docil docility. ity. The vacuum chute system could also be installed in the restrooms of private homes, according to personal preference. All samples would be freeze dried and rushed immedi immediately ately to robotic in-vitro labs, where only the healthiest fetuses would be incubated to term until they are tested for placement in virtual education programs. What cleanliness and reasonableness revolutionary training could introduce into the world! Through the edification and sup port of truly perfect and healthy VR families, the new generation could be raised free of neuroses, dysfunctional co-dependent rela relationships tionships and all the health disorders, such as The Innocent I Heather Hovde high blood pressure, caused by the stress of face to face interaction. Childhood injuries would be a thing of the past, and all educa educational tional discrimination would be replaced by perfectly impartial instruction. Unemployment and the poverty it causes would be a thing of the past, since all the infinite dissatisfaction of "get more" adver advertising tising would be replaced by carefully timed desires attainable upon the completion of tasks, beginning with programming languages and ending with whatever service to the in industry dustry the child is able to give upon reaching adulthood. Add to this orderly progression the secu security rity of a perfectly self-perpetuating system, and our future generations will be the healthi healthiest est and most productive members ever seen by society. The American Dream is not lost! Everyone can believe, through VR, that they are achieving more than their simulated parents. Of course, the transition into virtual inter interaction action could be incredibly expensive, but the abolition of institutions such as government, police, religious charities, etq. (Everyone will have exactly what they need; even the termi terminally nally lazy can be inspired to stagger to the terminal through a virtual rewardpunish sys system tem based on actual goods delivered and programs installed in the VR rooms.) would more than pay for any costs incurred by the installation of AV equipment, fiber-optic phone lines, and the entire vacuum chute system necessary to high standards of elec electronic tronic living. I have taken the liberty of running the micro and macro economic flow charts through the latest of my cost analysis pro programs, grams, and have found, as most have read in Econ Magazine, that not only would the GNP be greatly increased by this simple reform, but that the abolishment of human contact would also prevent the necessity of the ex expensive pensive justice system. One of the unexpected benefits of abso absolute lute equality would be the elimination of the need for robbing and other criminal activity. This would be further hindered by the instal installation lation of electrified fences (advertised, of course, to prevent injury) around each and every home, a protective measure now con considered sidered impossible due to the need to leave home. It could be said that many of our public workers could not appreciate the benefits of their new lives at first, but modern psychol psychology ogy offers numerous solutions to their dis distress. tress. The discomfort caused other necessi necessities, ties, communicating only by phone and com computer puter ever since my dismissal from IBM, and I may say without reservation that our lives are as fulfilling and meaningful as any other family's. Therapy and chemical treatment was only necessary to us the first year, after which our dependencies on both Valium and other people were put gently and entirely to rest. Our experience has restored my faith in the capac capacity ity of the human mind to eliminate in itself those chaotic primitivisms which hinder it from progress toward the manifest destiny of the human race.

GOP plans liberty in 1996 After sweeping into Washington in 1994, there seemed little doubt in many trendy minds that the GOP would easily take the presidency in 1996. Clinton seemed weak and stumbling, and Newt appeared ready to charge into a fury of Congressional activity aimed at destroy destroying ing the statist politics of the past 40 years. Of course, things are not as easy as that The first 100 days are up, and Newt brought most everything to the floor that he said he would. Of course, not every everything thing in the Contract with America passed, but he did introduce it. Polls show that Americans are split over the performance of the Republican Congress. While the support of half of all voting Americans is nothing to write home to Georgia about, it is somewhat amazing considering what the GOP has been attempting to do. Ac According cording to conventional wisdom, Ameri Americans cans should be seething at the very pros prospect pect of their favorite programs being cut. The act of getting America off "the dole" involves assault on so many established functions of government that the mere mention would seem political suicide. But it has not turned out that way. It is true that if asked about specific programs that would be cut, Americans still opt for the big government status-quo. The important point is that the Democrats have failed to turn this into a wide-angle public distaste for downsizing govern government. ment. Republicans have been able to paint Clinton and his fellow "New Democrats" as simply made-over New Dealers, and have stolen the political spotlight from a president who, just two years ago, was happily hogging television time, saxaphone in hand. In order to gain the presidency, and maintain a majority in both houses of Congress in 1996, the GOP must do two main things. First of all, it must cease to attach "high morality" to cuts in govern government. ment. Downsizing government has its own rewards, such as decreased taxation, lower debt interest payments, lowerinterest rates, The Liberty Bell Jeffrey T. Eager less wasteful bureaucracy. There is no need to tie a tax break to the number of children a person has. Taxes should be reduced because it is beneficial for each person to keep as much of their own money as possible. That is fiscal morality. Secondly, the Republicans must keep abortion and other internally-divisive so social cial issues from occupying center stage as they did in 1992. The party won control of Congress in 1994 because of its pledge to rein in government. The GOP will prove itself hypocritical if it simply replaces harmful economic restrictions with soci societal etal ones. Thus far, the party has kept these two areas from destroying its advantage. The temptation to play to the religious right in the party will be keen throughout the pri primaries maries and in the convention. Regretably for the vast majority of Republicans the religious right has been able, in the past, to steal the media spotlight, and the attention of the candidates. Luckily, though, since the 1994 election, the media has turned its attention to another, rapidly expanding portion of the GOP: the libertarians. It is the quasi-libertarian (and I stress quasi, here) leanings of the party that got it elected. People were, and are tired of excessive government intervention. In order to win in 1996, the GOP must con continue tinue its quasi-libertarian swing. It must listen to the Cato Institute rather than the Christian Coalition, and it must adhere to if goal of cutting government spending. Fight the evils of the Dark Side There are times I am proud to be "from" Willamette. The number of quality appli applicants cants is up, a tuition freeze program is on the block, our forensics teams are kicking much ass, and where there is now a mud pit by Collins, soon will stand a fine new science building. On the surface, Willamette appears to be doing quite well. Unfortunately, beneath the surface, a trag tragedy edy is in the making. You see, it is my own personal philosophy that "the college experi experience" ence" is about much more than classes and registration times. I firmly believe that study houndsbook worms are missing the boat. I have learned a lot in my four years, and less than half of it has been from the classes. My philosophy, however, is not shared by some in the administration. Take for example the tyrannical Stuart Tennant. This man is a walking power trip who plans to turn Willamette into George Fox. No more parties - $50 fines for smiling or having fun. Seen the movie Star Wars? Herr Tennant is the Emperor. It is his plan to use the dark side to crush the rebel forces and do away with all forms of happiness. Beneath the empire there lies a whole legion of evil characters worming their slimy way into Willamette policy, making their jobs easier and the liability lawyers happy. The adminis administration tration does not care about your happiness. One of The Emperor's chief flunkies is Darth (Anita) Stacey, who uses the dark side to inflict whatever pain and harm she can on the otherwise happy peasants. While Darth Stacey claims to have some legitimate job helping the Greek system, a brief look at her track record or policy decisions of the past will make plain her evil intentions. Darth Stacey is less helpful to the students than the plague, and is clearly in league with the emperor. Even beneath Darth are the Storm Troopers: The RDs like Charles and Campus Safety. This league of act-befoie-you-think enforcers live for new harsh policy to enforce on us "unruly" students. So who is on our side? Who can save The Clap John Cable Willamette from the clutches of the evil forces? Rich Shintaku fits well in the role of a young naive yet capable Sky walker. He has the ability to stand up and fight the Emperor, if only he can find the courage to pick up his Jedi weapon and strike down the evil. (At the very least he could dispatch Darth!) But be before fore young Luke is prepared, he must com complete plete his training with true student-advocate Tony (YODA) Noble. ASWU is most like Chew-baka. Occa Occasionally sionally they do something clutch, but it is usually something trivial. Mostly they just sit around and yell and whine when faced with danger. Well there you go. Add more characters if you like (Jabba the Hut - Board of Trustees and Business Office), or dismiss the whole thing as silly, but whatever you do, consider why it fits so well. Beware of people like Stuart and Anita: They are NOT the hand that feeds you, but instead the hands that install yourchoke-chain. It would be nice if it was all just a story with no real impact, but that is not the case here. Stu is already ruining a per perfectly fectly good university from within, and with Anita and Charles being as pointlcssly cruel as possible at every turn, it won't be long until this school sucks out loud. Tell your parents and any alumnus you know that Willamette is headed for disaster at the hands of the Dark Side, and just maybe the almighty dollar can stop the regression and keep the barbarians out! April 14, 1995 6 The Collegian News Residence Life changes housing assignment policy for TIUA students by Lydia Alexander Staff Writer In response to concerns by Wil Willamette lamette and TIUA students regard regarding ing TIUA student housing, the Of Office fice of Residence Life along with the TIUA administration have mainstreamed the living situation for TIUA students. TIUA students will he put into the same lottery as Willamette sophomores to select rooms in residence halls. Also, Kaneko will be made to be more like other halls, by making it coed by balcony and by adding a health and fitness wing on fourth floor west. According to Stuart Tennant, Vice President of Student Affairs, the changes were partially moti motivated vated by the outcry of students ear earlier lier in the semester regarding Resi Residence dence Life's handling of the TIUA roommate situation. "I think as I saw the issues on campus that what fried students was the lack of equity. TIUA students ask to be treated like everyone else," said Tennant. In the past, TIUA students were assigned to rooms in a mini-lottery occurring the day after returning Willamette students selected their rooms. Ten percent of the rooms in each of the halls were reserved for TIUA students in an attempt to have an even distribution of TIUA stu students dents around campus. The new changes mean that although 30 percent of TIUA students will still be required to live in Kaneko, the rest of the students will be assigned to rooms through the room selec selection tion process gov governing erning the rest of Willamette stu students. dents. TIUA stu students dents will draw lottery numbers along with next year's sopho sophomore more class. This will al allow low TIUA students to have more housing options, including the op option tion to live in a single room, or live with another TIUA roommate. According to Cheryl Todd, As Assistant sistant Director of Operations of Residence Life, this is fairer to TIUA students, who are required to room together for the summer session, and might have another TIUA stu- "We have heard from Willamette and TIUA students that they feel there should not be a distinction made in the way they are assigned." Marty White Director of Student Affairs at TIUA dent in mind to live with in the fall. In the past, these students would not have been allowed to live together, but they will be allowed to next year. The former housing policy left TIUA students with virtually no housing rights. If TIUA students wanted to stay in a particular room or residence hall, they would have to rely on finding a Willa Willamette mette student with which to live. "We have heard from Wil Willamette lamette and TIUA students that they feel there should not be a distinction made in the way they are as assigned," signed," said Marty White, Director of Stu dent Affairs at TIUA. In addition, since rooms will not be held for TIUA students, and restricted for use by Willamette students, the situ situation ation will be far more equitable for Willamette students as well. White noted that another result of the new policy is that Willamette students will not be forced to live with a TIUA roommate, un unless less they want to, or are unable to find another roommate and need someone to fill the space. Also, the lit literature erature distrib distributed uted about the TIUA Room Roommate mate Exchange Program will eliminate any references to students "host "hosting" ing" TIUA stu students, dents, treating the TIUA situa situation tion like any other roommate situation in Willamette's residence halls. In addition to restructuring the TIUA roommate program, Kaneko Hall will be integrated into the rest of the residence halls. Willamette students can choose to live in Kaneko without a TIUA roommate, and will be eligible to live there all four years, if they desire. In the "I I t's slowly evolving. ..parents in Japan are not used to the coed situation, but then again, neither are some American parents." Cheryl Todd Assistant Director of Operations of Residence Life past, there were limitations on who could live in Kaneko and how long they could live there. "They can have ownership in Kaneko, which they didn't have before," said White, referring to Willamette students living in Kaneko. Kaneko's third and fourth floors will also be modified to be coed by bal balcony, cony, instead of by wing. This is expected to make Kaneko more attractive to both TIUA and Willamette students. Todd esti estimated mated that at a previous meet meeting, ing, only four TIUA students wanted to live at Kaneko. Todd attrib- uted this to the fact that TIUA students are in interested terested in having the full Willa Willamette mette experience, and want to live in a Willamette residence hall. She also mentioned one previous TIUA class who felt that Kaneko Hall was "too much like Japan" and preferred to live on campus. One reason the TIUA students were attracted to Willamette resi residence dence halls is that these halls pro provide vide a coed living environment by room. Therefore, some of the Kaneko changes include the third and fourth floors to become coed by balcony starting next fall. This will require the bathrooms to be remod remodeled eled over the summer in prepara preparation tion for the no longer single sexed wings. "It's slowly evolving . . . par parents ents in Japan are not used to the coed situation, but then again, nei neither ther are some American parents," said Todd. Another policy change for next year will be that there will be no midyear freeze. Students left with without out roommates will be able to move into a room with an open vacancy to live with another student of his or her choice. Although this was the standard procedure in the past, the Office of Residence Life changed the policy this year. This made it possible for them to reserve the right to prevent students from switching rooms or residence halls, even if there was a mutual roommate with whom they wanted to live. Recycling at "Willamette To help you understand the benefits of environmental pro programs grams such as waste reduction and recycling, here are some en environmental vironmental statistics and facts: Every ton of recycled paper saves up to: 3 cubic yards of landfill space 4,200 kilowatt hours of elec electricity tricity (64 savings) 7,000 gallons of water (61 savings) 75 bleach 60 pounds of air pollutants approximately 17 trees Recycling facts: The Netherlands has the highest level of recy recycling cling with' 50 of aluminium, 50 of paper and 53 of glass recycled. The United States has the lowest level of recycling for any industrial na nation tion - with rates of 28 of alu aluminium, minium, 27 paper and 10 of glass. Japan and the Netherlands col collect lect over 50 of their aluminium, glass and paper. Neither country requires raw materials for mak making ing paper and glass one year out of two. Paper fiber can be used up to a dozen times. Americans (each) use 600 pounds of paper annually, ulti ultimately mately comprising 40 of all trash. Fifteen percent of all landfill waste in the United States is made up of high grade printing and writing paper - junk mail, maga magazines zines and office wastes. It takes an average of six weeks for an aluminium can to be re recycled cycled and put into use again. Enough aluminium is thrown away by Americans every three months to rebuild the entire United States commercial air airline line fleet. Recycling paper, glass, metal, wood and plastics is only part of the solution. It is environ environmentally mentally important to recycle, but we must not over look the great savings from source reduc tion and reuse. Source re reduction duction is any action that pre prevents vents waste from occurring in the first place. For ex ample, by copying on both sides of the paper, using reusable coffee mugs in instead stead of disposable cups and avoiding excess packaging - we conserve resources and elimi eliminate nate waste. Reusing the original product is far more effective than merely recycling its materials. Refill Refill-able able containers, reusable pack packaging aging and refurbished machines save virtually 100 percent of the energy, pollution and materials required to make them in the first place. The savings multiply with each reuse.

English Department unable to appoint endowed chair by Amy Schlegel Staff Writer The anticipation of the decision about the English Department's endowed chair ended rather anti anti-climatically climatically today. After seven months of conducting a national search for the perfect candidate to fill the Hallie Brown Ford Chair in Literature, a decision has not been reached. According to Professor Braden, Chair of the English Depart Department, ment, the search was not a failure but a valuable learning experience. The Search Committee, con consisted sisted of two students, all full-time English professors, and two profes professors sors from other departments. They will proceed with a new search im immediately. mediately. The first step involves constructively evaluating the pro process cess of the previous search. Braden foresees a number of revisions tak taking ing place before the next search offically gets off the ground. The obstacles the committee faced this time simply involve in inconsistencies consistencies within the ideal con conception ception of the endowed chair posi position. tion. The job description of an en endowed dowed chair is a unique position requiring an individual who serves students, the administration and the Willamette community as a whole. The chair's responsibilities include teaching full-time and meeting stu student dent needs and desires. The chair is an automatic tenure-track position making himor her an almost imme immediate diate "figurehead for the college" according to Braden. The committee must suit the ramifications of the do donor. nor. Throughout the process the En English glish Department has come to a clearer understanding of the role of the chair, and as Braden says, they "have the good fortune to begin anew." With each new candidate the committee became aware of , various strengths and weaknesses of candidates and the actual job description. The committee was simply unable to come to a unani unanimous mous decision. However, they all agree that the new search will occur with many lessons learned. The groundwork has been laid and a new search will begin as soon as possible. Braden said that after exhibiting and witnessing such a large amount of dedication from the committee he "feels exhaustion but relief that we did not do something out of desperation." With a clearer conception of the chair, and the process, the committee members hope to see the new search promises to result in triumph. ATA holds annual keg roll to help Kidney Association by Derek Hevel Contributor For the 23rd year in a row, the Delta Tau Delta fraternity held its annual Keg Roll Saturday. The Keg Roll, a Delt philan philanthropy thropy which raises funds for the Kidney Association of Oregon (KAO), took Delt members on a keg-rolling trip from Eugene to Portland over a period of three days. In the Keg Roll, each man sprints a short distance of 100 yards and passes the keg off to another per person. son. He is then taken to the front of the line to await another run. This process continues for hours each day until their daily goal is met. On Thursday, March 29, Delta Tau Delta members from the Uni University versity of Oregon and Oregon State University began rolling an empty keg, turning on an axle like a bi bicycle, cycle, along the shoulder of highway 99W into Corvalis. The group con continued tinued to Salem the next day where it met Willamette Delt members. On Saturday at 10 a.m., thirteen Willamette Delts, along with Delts from both other schools, rolled the keg through McMinnville and Newberg and then into Portland. The Keg Roll ended as the three chapters received police escorts into the downtown area and finally to Pioneer Square. The entire journey involved more than 50 Delta Tau Delta broth brothers, ers, over 100 miles and almost 25 hours of actual rolling and weeks of soliciting donations for KAO.

In addition sevec students wiil fill newly created positions as Com Community munity Assistants and Assistant RDs next year. "They're very genuine people who really care about Willamette stu students dents and care about making this ex experience perience the best they can ... I think they have a lot to offer the campus," said Marilyn Derby, Associate Di Director rector of Residence Life. The RA application process be began gan for non-returning RAs in late January when students interested in applying for the position were re required quired to attend information sessions in which Residence Life Staff out outlined lined the commitments, responsibili responsibilities, ties, and rewards of the position. Residence Life received applica applications tions from 52 qualified applicants. After reviewing their applications, and conducting group and individual interviews, Residence Life selected 32 students. According to Derby, stu students dents were rated on the quality of their references, prior experience in leadership, group interaction skills, and the answers they gave in their application. The 32 students advanced to Phase Two of ti e interview process faced intensive 'i 5 minute interviews with two full-Line Residence Life Staff. Following the interviews and a deliberation process by the Office of Residence Life, 20 students received offers as RAs. These students joined five returning RAs and will be as assigned signed to their specific residence hails by May 2. Thai Verzone, who will be a second-year RA next year, is looking forward to next year. "The main reason that I am re returning turning is that I really like my resi residents dents a lot. I think that it is really cool to be there for my residents, creating a community and atmosphere that is rewarding for me and them. Some Sometimes times it gets difficult, but I guess the main reason that I'm staying is that I like being able to do something for them that is fun and safe," said Verzone. In addition to the RAs, who are responsible for planning activities and enforcing the policies of Residence Life in each of the Residence Halls, two new positions have been created. Community Assistants are as assigned signed to live and work in the campus apartment buildings where they will be responsible for responding to resi resident dent needs and acting as the liaison between the apartment residents and the Office of Residence Life. In addi addition, tion, they will be responsible for some educational and social recreational programming. Three assistant RDs were also hired to assist RDs, whose roles and responsibilities will be expanded next year. AssistantRDs will assume some of the administrative responsibilities of the RDs, and help the RDs main maintain tain close ties with both the RAs and residents of the halls in which they serve.

April 14, 1995 Tlx Collegian Jamie Peters 17 Foth No More "King For o Day, Fool For a Lifetime" The most recent release from Faith No More is probably their best effort to date. In the past, Faith No More's ability to incorporate numer numerous ous influences and styles into each album has been one of their calling cards. This album is nearly as ground-breaking as their past two, but somehow is much more of a coherent whole and works well as a full album. Funk songs are still followed by "crunchy" heavy metal songs, but they mesh together bet better ter on this album than they did on their last al album, bum, Angel Dust. Faith No More is still essentially a hard rockheavy metal group with hard driving gui guitars tars and vocals, but they prove again that they are one of the most interest interesting ing groups currently in the genre. The most intriguing song on King For a Day .... Fool For a Lifetime is the third track, "Evi "Evidence." dence." This song is much different than any other that I have encoun encountered tered by Faith No More. While most hard rock groups usually rely on a few ballads to break the monotony, Faith No More has included a classic funk tune. It is as if Faith No More had been listening to entirely too much Cameo or George Clinton's "Funkadelic" when they wrote "Evidence." In classic Faith No More form, they follow up this mellow tune with a heavy metal song, so crunchy it would surely obtain the attention of GWAR (for the ignorant, GWAR is a group of alien invaders who have attacked the Earth via radio waves, and employ some pretty damn crunchy guitar licks in hopes of brain washing all of us pitifully stupid humans). Ultimately, this album is complete and pro vides a different feel and pace at each and every turn. I have never been a very big fan of Faith No More, and I think that Mike Patton's (lead singer of Faith No More) second group, Mr. Bungle, is much too inaccessible for me to ever consider adding to my CD collection. King For a Day.... fool fora lifetime, on the other hand, has potential to be one of my favorite recent CDs. My deal with the Collegian claims that I will give them back the CDs after I have reviewed them, but they are going to have a fight on their hands if they want this one back. PJ Harvey "To Bring You My Love" If you have watched over ten minutes of MTV' s "Alternative Nation" or listened to 970 AM 'THE r X & ; BEAT" more than twice in the last month, then you have encountered the haunting lyrics of Polly Jean Harvey on their first single from To Bring You My Love. Once the lines "Big fish little fish swimming in the water. . .come back here and bring me my daughter" get implanted in your head, they will never leave. These lyrics from the song "Down By the Water" haunt me throughout a good portion of every day. None of the rest of the songs on To Bring You My Love are nearly as polished as "Down By the Water" but each song on this album is filled with tons of raw rage and energy that are impossible for listeners to avoid. PJ Harvey is unlike a majority of the other groups battling for our music buying dollars currently, but their main selling point is the passion and energy that is present in every track on To Bring You My Love. Nowhere in this CD is this passion and pain more evident than on the title track. Lyrics such as "Climbed over mountains, traveled the sea, cast out of Heaven, cast down on my knees, I've lain with the devil, cursed God above, to bring you my love" show the passion, pain, desire, and raw emotion that are present throughout this CD. This mixture of powerful lyrics and vocals with haunting melodies that plod along give this CD a distinctive feel. I enjoy this CD, but I don't imagine that it is one that I would choose to expose myself to very consistently. It is very dark and is powerful enough to changeone'shappy-go- lucky attitude into one that is much more deep, reflective and with withdrawn. drawn. In the words of PJ Harvey, you will "Meet Ze Monsta" within. The fact that it can elicit such emotions shows this album's strength, but this CD can definitely not be con considered sidered "music for uie masses." Finally, I feel obli obligated gated to say farewell to Eazy E. Not because I respected him as a person, or because I neces necessarily sarily enjoyed his music, but because he and his former band-mates N.W.A. did a lot to change the face of music as we know it today. I mean for goodness sake, how can we not praise the man who brought such misogynistic lyrics as "Clocking the bitches and smacking the ho's" into popular discourse in high schools throughout Compton and the rest of the world? Seriously though, the poor man died of the hideous AIDS virus, and did speak (in rather disgusting terms) to large segments of our population. I declare today Eazy E day. Go forth, wear Geri curls, speak in the most de derogatory rogatory ways possible, and give praise to a true visionary. ... 'Wv.i-. Don Juan de Marco goes heavy on cheese Kara McAnulty I consider my sell to be a textbook case of the "hope less romantic." I accepted my fate long ago - to be the one who believes in roses and Romcos, and who always cries at the disgustingly cute love stories. This I know and accept about myself. But even I did not fall for the cheese in Johnny Depp's latest film, Don Juan de Marco. This was a man's romance film. I had never really seen one before, but this film is living, breathing proof of what testosterone looks like when transferred onto film. The film stars Depp as a young man of 2 1 who believes that he is the legendary lover Don Juan de Marco. This young man claims to have bedded over 1 500 women (oh, what a stallion; you big hunk of a man, oh yes oh yes...), and when the one woman he truly loves shuns him, he sees no point in living and tries to kill himself. The psychiatrist. Dr. Melnick, who coaxes him off the top of a billboard is played by none other than Marlon Brando, with a belly so big it took me more than a few moments to even recognize him. The conventional romanticist technique is employed here, with the mental patient who is more in touch M ayb with himself and his life than the psychiatrist who is treating him. Through "Don Juan," Brando' s char character acter sees a passion and a love of life he has forgotten over the years. He tries to rediscover this pas passion, sion, and there are some touching scenes (including a love scene in- volving popcorn) between him and his wife, played by Faye Dunaway. What a trio these three make - dis discovering, covering, learning and teaching each other about love and life. That is all well and good for a while, but the flowery, glowing aura to this film gets stifling after a while. I was really not able to get caught up in all of the romantic idealism the film expects the audienceto buy into. There are more than a few love scenes, with some interesting seduc seduction tion techniques employed by the ever ever-ready ready Don Juan. But you never really know who to bel ieve, as the film constantly shifts back and forth between the office of Dr. Melnick, and Don Juan's "story" about his life, which is visually repre represented. sented. Maybe that was the point: that the "insane" are actually the ones who know what's going on, and the o that U where the film lost mo; when I vas suppossd to bo swooning over tho passion and the romance, I found myself laughing." rest of us have lost perspective. At this point, that is a theory in particular that I would buy into. How However, ever, I was constantly pulled out of the romance of this film by Depp's bad accent and the jerky , rough-edged feel of the transitions in the film. This is a "man's romance" because it concerns itself almost en entirely tirely with the art of seducing women. It is not that Depp's char character acter brags about how many women he has bagged, but it is his insinuation that at the very sound of his voice ortouchofhishand sends any and all women into a hor hormonal monal frenzy. Some of the lines he used to get women into bed were so unbeliev unbelievable able that they were actually funny. Maybe that is where the film lost me; when I was supposed to be swooning over the passion and the romance, I found myself laughing. Probably not the response the filmmakers expected, and I was not the only one in the audience who was laughing at what was probably not the right time. I see exactly what this film was trying to do: to get us as caught up in the passion and vim that Don Juan has for life (and for women) as was Dr. Melnick. That unto itself is fine, but it is a little simplistic and way over overdone. done. I was hit over the head with the message "love is worth dying for" that I felt like I was watching a Shakespearian sonnet on the screen. Like I said before, I buy into the romance just as much as the next person, probably more, but this film was overdone, overdramatized, and lacking in some of the essential quali qualities ties that make a film interesting and intriguing. l i v GREENT IPS FACT Americans add up to 5 of the world's population, yet we generate 25 of the world's pollution and 30 of its garbage.

Lutz aimed at pro producing ducing photographs that were not of a subject but were about a subject. He shot images that examined shapes of light. A fifth photographer, Amberly Glidewell, displays pairs of mixed media works called Polaroid trans transfers. fers. These are created by transfer transferring ring the chemicals of an undeveloped Polaroid picture to watercolor paper. The images are blurred, which is typi typical cal of Polaroid transfer attempts, so Glidewell uses watercolor pencils to touch up the images, giving the five pairs of transfers an entirely different mood and artistic expression.

Stelzer, who graduated from Stanford University in 1967 with a doctorate in philosophy, said he feels like he is taking the first feeble steps along a trail for future computer authors. "Books have structure, this, this is a different kind of structure," Stelzer said, noting the computer program books help readers find information faster and more efficiently.

Features 11 April 14, 1995 The Collegian McLauchlan concert more than 'Good by Heather Anderson Staff Writer Sarah McLauchlan is a goddess. It took just one look at Schnizter Auditorium's stage before every person there knew it. What they might not have known, however, was that Sarah's opening act, Paula Cole, was about to make a lasting impression of her own. McLauchlan's latest local stint was an April 4 performance in Port Portland land that left the audience capti captivated, vated, saturated and breathless with soaring tunes and heart-wrenching lyrics. Popular for her 1994 album "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy," the Canadian songstress is her country's freshest, export to date, with talent that could perhaps surpass that of fellow countrywoman Celine Dion. It is soul that Ms. McLauchlan brings to her music, along with melodies that are hauntingly famil familiar iar and simultaneously unforget unforgettable. table. B ut put Queen Sarah on hold for a moment. The extremely talented, but relatively unknown, Paula Cole opened up for McLauchlan's 8 p.m. performance. Although I, too, had never heard of Cole before, I thought it would be interesting to compare her voice with that of McLauchlan's. In fact, I thought it interesting that McLauchlan had booked an another other female as her opening act; usually artists shy away from such actions that may detract from their own musical credibility. In a way, Cole did detract from McLauchlan's follow-up perfor performance mance because she was so damn NEED SUMMER OR FALL TERM HOUSING?

If McLauchlan is a goddess, then Cole is a goddess-in-training. It was obvious that Cole was extremely nervous at first; whatdiva would not be in the presence of the likes of McLauchlan. However, right around the time she covered Dolly Parton's "Jolene," it seemed that Cole had hit her stride and figured out ex exactly actly what she wanted to do with us as an audience. I had heard of the song "Jolene" months before, when a professor mentioned it as a pneumonic de devices vices to rememberstudents' names. I had no idea that this song could ever be worth anything to me. Then I heard Cole sing it. She sang it. Her voice shot the lyrics out her throat, from every fiber of her be being: ing: "Jolene, don't take him just 'cause you can." Her fellow musicians on-stage were almost equally amazing. Her guitarist (who could take on Eddie Van Halen any day) hailed from Dublin, Ireland. Maybe that's where he got his fashion sense he was wearing "silver metallic trousers," as Cole put it. His guitar prowess more than made up for his unfortu unfortunate nate lack of taste in pants. Cole didn't have a drummer; she had a percussionist. Right away I knew that there is definitely a difference between being able to play a drum kit and being a percus percussionist. sionist. One of the most fascinating moments in Cole's set came when she revived her fifth grade curiosity with the clarinet and told the audi audience ence that she "was once a band nerd." Cole received a hearteningly U 4 .1 " TIT if , Ever ry Wednesday, Starting at Spm hottest AursWivs 1 r respectable response when she asked if there were any others of "us" out in the audience. This song that utilized her wood woodwind wind ability also showcased her skillful use of a cookie sheet as a percussive surface. As Cole played a haunting melody on her "licorice stick," she used her boots to slam into that baking sheet as hard as she could from time to time. The results were chilling. Cole quipped, "Some "Sometimes times it pays off to be a nerd." You bet, Paula. Perhaps what gave Cole such an appeal was her ability to blend her herself self into the audience. She was ob obviously viously a performer there to enter entertain tain us, but at the same time, she brought herself into our world by singing about high school memo memories, ries, with lyrics that detailed how the basketball team had sex with the same eleven girls and how she wished she were anywhere else but where she was. Cole was ultimately brilliant not because of her accessibility, but because of her vocal talents. I have yet to hear someone who could manipulate their voice better than she. The girl didn't need a back-up singer, an electric guitarist or a keyboardist to pass the melody on. She proved that she could handle it all by herself. Though a legend in her own right, Sarah McLauchlan relied much on the talents behind her; she was accompanied by at least seven others. Because harmonies are such an integral role in McLauchlan's ethe ethereal, real, wispy-yet-poignant pieces, it was understandable that she had a back-up singer; without that other If tocx & TtscUHo 1 J RxAlLY tfjtt f3 ' J, . 0- t ! melody line, much of the heart of her artistry would have been lost.

McLauchlan's, although a breath of fresh air in a society that capitalizes on "loud angst," tended to be more comforting and familiar, like an old shoe that has retained its beauty over the years. McLauchlan tantalized our ears with such "Ecstasy" favorites as "Good Enough," "Hold On," the radio-friendly "Possession," and the pleasantly chilling live rendition of "Fear." Sarah's fans are extremely loyal Nutrionist offers guidelines for safe Easter egg hunting and eating - Associated Press Since ancient times, eggs have been colored, exchanged and eaten as part of the rites of spring. Colored eggs are still a part of celebrating Easter and spring for many. Coloring and hiding Easter eggs around the house or yard is a universal custom that children enjoy very much," said Melissa Mixon, extension human nutri nutrition tion specialist at Mississippi State University. "But remember the same safety rules that apply to Easter eggs apply to other foods." To make sure egg hunts are both safe and fun, start with good quality eggs. Leave eggs in their original carton and keep them refrigerated until they are cooked. "To correctly hard-cook eggs, place them in a pot, cover them with cool water and cook for seven minutes after bringing the water to a boil," Mixon said. "After they are cooked, refrigerate them if you're not ready to dye imme immediately." diately." Do not color or hide cracked eggs, Mixon said.

McLauchlan was more happy to oblige the faithful (meaning, those who stayed until the bitter-sweet end) with three en encores. cores. The last song of the evening was the much anticipated and play playful ful "Ice Cream," which ended with a lick of its own. While both posses the capabil capability ity of turning heart-wrenching feel feelings ings in;o appropriate melodies for the masses, McLauchlan and Cole are not suitable music for moshing. They're not even for merely lis listening tening to, either. Mostly their music is for feeling. But for all intents and purposes, theirs is music of the thinking man's seduction genre, or something realted. It's something that every everyone one can use at home. To give Easter eggs their bril brilliant liant colors, use approved non nontoxic toxic dyes or food colorings. Refrigerate eggs after coloring, and keep them refrigerated until time to hide. "When hiding eggs, avoid places where they could come into contact with dirt, pets, lawn chemicals or insects," Mixon said. "If you plan to eat the eggs, the total time for hiding and hunt hunting ing must not be more than two hours." If the eggs are in the field for any longer than two hours, their nutrition intergrity may be com compromised, promised, making the eggs un unsuitable suitable for children to eat. Easter eggs that have been hard-cooked, dyed and refriger refrigerated ated properly will last up to a week in the refrigerator. The nutritionist said eggs are good sources of protein, ribofla riboflavin, vin, iron and vitamin D. "New studies have shown that eggs have 22 percent less choles cholesterol terol than was originally thought," Mixon said. "A large egg has only 80 calories and five grams of fat."

Group prepares for next round in battle against OCA Basc Rights Oregon leaders promise to oppose any efforts by the Oregon Citizens Alliance to pass an anti anti-gay gay rights ballot measure. by Oritz Ray Assoicated Press Leaders of a group that opposed Oregon's unsuccessful anti-gay rights measures are preparing for the next round in their battle with the Oregon Citizens Alliance. Under the new name of Basic Rights Oregon, the group will counter efforts of the OCA, which has twice brought anti-gay rights measures to a statewide vote. "We can't hibernate," Basic Rights Oregon Executive Director Julie Davis said Wednesday. "The OCA is out there 365 days a year raising money and attempting to build political power based on this issue. We cannot sit around and wait." The group in the past worked under the names No On 13 Cam Campaign paign and Support Our Communi Communities ties PAC to defeat the OCA-spon-sored Measure 13 in 1994 and Mea Measure sure 9 in 1992. "It really doesn't matter if the number is 9 or the number is 13. They still have the same basic in intent," tent," Davis said. The Brooks-based OCA hopes to put a new measure which is "very similar to Measure 13" before vot voters ers in November 1996, OCA chair chairman man Lon M;.bon said. The new initiative differs by asserting that the state constitution's "right to conscience" allows citi citizens zens to be opposed to "certain be behavior, havior, such as homosexuality, when based on one's convictions," Mabon said. It also would require libraries to place books "that would be per perceived ceived as promoting homosexual homosexuality ity to minors" in adults-only sec sections. tions. Mabon said. OCA has opposed the ballot title given to the new initiative by Attor Attorney ney General Ted Kulongoski as "negative" and has petitioned the Supreme Court to rewrite it, Mabon said. OCA also is working on an ini-' tiative to limit second- and third third-trimester trimester abortions, he said. Basic Rights Oregon is devel developing oping a grassroots education cam campaign paign and plans to counter future OCA efforts by pushing for its own legislation or initiative to "guaran "guarantee tee basic rights for everyone in Or Oregon," egon," said Carol Auger, a mem member ber of the group's Board of Directors. Basic Rights Oregon will de develop velop a statewide support network through neighborhood meetings and information booths at county fairs and other public events. "Most people who support OCA initiatives aren't acquainted with the urban environment where people of all kinds bump up against each other," Auger said. "I think if people knew what they were doing by sup supporting porting this stuff - discriminating against people - they wouldn't do it." Local measures similar to the OCA's measures have been ap-. proved by voters in two dozen cities and counties, even though a 1993 state law blocks enforcement of such ordinances. Mabon said the OCA's initia tives are not about discrimination but about personal morality ."It isn' t civil rights discrimination to be opposed to immoral behavior," he said. "Male sodomy, lesbianism and cross dressing are not basic human . I rights." Record-breaking cosmonauts emerge from isolation by Angela Charlton Associated Press With new haircuts and buoy buoyant ant smiles, the cosmonauts who returned from the Mir space sta station tion three weeks ago emerged from medical isolation Tues Tuesday day to the cheers of adoring crowds. Valery Polyakov, who set an endurance record of 439 days in space, was free to hug arid kiss friends and colleagues - without the surgical mask he has worn for weeks to protect him from germs. Yelena Kondakova, a flight engineerwhose 170 days in space set an endurance record for women, shook hands with doz dozens ens of admirers before pausing to notice the morning sun. "It smells like spring," she said before taking a walk through Star City, the cosmonaut training base on the outskirts of Moscow. Nearly 1,000 space agency employees, military officers and children - virtually the entire popu population lation of Star City - came out to greet the cosmonauts. Polyakov, Kondakova and commander Alexander Viktorenko returned to Earth on March 22, and were whisked off for two weeks of medical tests and reconditioning. They left behind a new three three-person person crew on the Mir, including American astronaut Norman Thagard, who aims to break the U.S. record of 84 consecutive days in space. Looking relaxed and ener energetic, getic, the three cosmonauts were led around the spotless center of Star City by a 20-piece military marching band. "They're our heroes," said Natalya Belyakova, 74, who lives in Star City with her son. Pointing at the smiling Kondakova, Belyakova added, "And look how good she looks!" Masha, an 1 1 -year-old whose father works for the Russian Space Agency, walked behind the cosmo cosmonauts. nauts. "This is such an important day, we didn't even go to school," she said. Dozens of officials spent the next several hours showering the cosmonauts with praise, flowers and gifts. President Boris Yeltsin sent his congratulations, after conferring state awards on the crew, including the honorary title of "Hero of the Russian Federation" for Polyakov and Kondakova. Tuesday's ceremonies fell on the eve of Cosmonauts' Day, a So Soviet viet holiday marking the anniver anniversary sary of the world's first manned space flight, by Yuri Gagarin, on April 12, 1961. Speaking in front of a huge mural of Gagarin, Polyakov paid tribute to one of the former Soviet Union's most idolized figures. "In difficult moments, Gagarin helps us," he said. "He's always there for us." Gagarin's widow, Valentina Gagarina, was pre presented sented with a bouquet. The outpouring of praise provided a much-needed mo morale rale boost for some employ employees ees of the cash-strapped Rus Russian sian Space Agency. Employees at the space center earn about $40 per month, low even by Russian standards, and the agency has been forced to cut several major projects in recent years. "Of course, we're full of problems here," said Vladimir Belinsky, who works with the cosmonauts. "But a day like this reminds us what an ac accomplishment complishment we are making." 13 Marchl4, 1995 The Collegian VGolf f Room for improvement for Willamette golf team by Matt Kosderka Staff Writer 3 It is early in the season, but both Willamette's men's and women's golf teams must work out the kinks in the next month, if either of them hopes to finish well in the conference tournament. The men's team finished be behind hind Pacific Lutheran (6 1 8), West Western ern Washington (627), Puget Sound (638), SL Martin's (648) and Pacific (650) two weeks ago in the Puget Sound Invitational. The Bearcats finished with a team score, of 670 over the two day six team tournament, which was only their second of the season. Senior Jeff Anicker lead the Bearcats, shooting a 17-over par 159 on the 6,400 yard par 71 Fircrest Golf Club course in Tacoma, Washington. Anicker's second day round of 78 was good enough to move him into a tie for 1 1 th for the tournament. Willamette's second leading scorer was senior Fredrick Jaderholm, who shot a 167 in the 36 hole tournament. He was fol followed lowed by juniorBill Valenti ( 1 72), sophomore MitchRey es ( 1 73) and junioi Alex Isaac (181). The team competed the two day 36 hole Pacific Invitational on Thursday and Friday , but scores were unavailable at press tin.;. The tournament was held at the renowned Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club in Portland. As for the women, it was hard to tell that they were only in their second year as an official NAIA sport, as they competed at the recent Green River Invitational at the North Shore Golf Club. The Bearcats finished second in the four team tournament, with a two day total of 594, finishing only behind Western Washington. Sophomore AmberLowitz led the charge, shooting a 190. Her second day score of 88 was the best round by a Bearcat in the tournament. Right behind Lowitz, were sophomore Katie Rogerson (207), seniors Sarah Day (211), and Kaley Scott, (21 1) and fresh freshman man Julie Carlsen (224). Looking ahead, the women's team will compete in the Western Washington Invitational in Bellingham on the 20-21. It will be there final tune-up before the Northwest Conference tourna tournament, ment, which will be held on the Bearcat's home courses of niahe Hills and Creekside on April 27 and 28. The men's team is scheduled to play in the Pacific Northwest Small College Golf Classic, which will consist of five 1 8 hole sub tournaments.

V Women's tennis Bearcats win a few, about time! ! by Doug Lewis Staff Writer The old saying 'you can't judge a book by its cover,' holds true for this years women's tennis team. They played four matches last week, while only winning one, to bring their rec-id i 2-4 in conference and 5- 12 overall. Their thre losses , t jugh, were against two of the top teams in the Noruiwt:'. Conference of Independent Colleges, and on to a r1: ision one school. Their most recent match was Wednesday against Lewis and Clark at home. They lost that one by a score of 3-6. Besides the loss , Head Coach Molly Sigado was positive about certain aspects of the match "We took all three doubles matches to three sets," Sigado said. "If we could of won those, we would of won the match." They did win at number one doubles, where the team of junior Kim Yokoyama and freshman Megan Fry won 6-3 4 4-6 6 6-4. The other two winners for the Bearcats were freshman Katie Snider at number five and sophomore Kim Nguyen at the sixth singles spot. Frey and Yokoyama both lost in singles after playing tough matches. Frey lost 6-7 (5-7) 6-3 at the fourth singles spot, while Yokoyama lost 6-4 6-4 at number one after beating the same girl 1-6 6-1 6-1 earlier in the year. Sigado thought that the match could of gone their way with just a few more breaks. "We had a pretty good shot at ," she commented. "We p ayul well and it was a pretty close match, but it didn' t come ut our way." Lewis and Clark is tied with both Pacific Lutheran University and Linfield for the top spot in the conference. The match against the Pioneers gave Willamette a good chance to see how they stack up against one of the best teams in conference. 'It gave us a good match to shoot for," Sigado said. "Now we have the rest of the week of to practice and get ready for olt next match." ."hey were forced to play indoors due to the rain. When they have to play inside, the singles matches are played at the Couruiv ".se Athletic Club, and the doubles are played in Cone field House. "It s a lot faster game when we play in the gym," said Sigado "You're lucky to get four hits across the net before the point is over." The Bearcats have disliked playing in the gym all year, but are forced to due to the lack of court space at the Courthouse. k Freshman Megan Frey nails a backhand. The sole win of the past week came against Oregon State University on Sunday afternoon, by a score of 9 9-0 0 They handed the Beavers the crushing loss even without the service of Yokoyama and Nguyen. Willamette played another NCAA Division-One school this week, but did not come out with the same results. They lost 0-7 to the University of Oregon on Tuesday afternoon. Yokoyama, who grew up in Ha Hawaii, waii, lost to fellcv Hawaiian native Kara Yoshida. The two ha"", played eachother all through juniors in Hawaii.

Playing a double header on Sunday, Willamette started out on the right foot with an 8-0 win under senior Geoff Huetten. f Huetten is now 2-1 in conference. He threw a one-hit shutout, earning him the award of Co Co-Conference Conference Pitcher of the Week in the North Northwest west Conference. It was a case of consistant hitting and mini minimal mal errors for the Bearcat's first win. ... The team had "clutch hitting," said junior 'transfer first baseman Bryan Hall. "When there were runners in scoring position we moved them. We didn't make any errors." The team did the little things, the funda fundamentals, mentals, to earn the win. This was soon overshadowed by the fact j'lat the Bearcats lost the second half of the double header, 3-2, under sophomore pitcher Abe Cohen. Cohen is 0-3 in league. The loss was extrememly frustrating for the team, which has been working hard to come out of their losing streak. The Bearcats were down 3-0 going into the "ynth inning untiL sophomore catcher Ryan Fly nn and senior outfielder Mitch Pang hit solo home runs, bringing the Bearcats within one run of tying the game. Then, with one out, sophomore shortstop Chad Westwood, trying to score on senior outfielder Mick Glaze's fly ball to left field, was lrown out at the plate, ending the game. The entire Bearcat team erupted in anger because Westwood had beaten the throw to home plate, but the home plate umpire missed the call and the Bearcats lost. Monday's game was just as depressing, with freshman pitcher Matt Kosderka pitching up the 6-1 loss. Kosderka is currently 1-2 in conference. After Kosderka gave up two runs in the first, the Bearcats rallied to score a run in the second, but it was to no avail. Kosderka left the game with the Bearcats trailing 3-1 and the bases loaded in the seventh inning. Freshman re reliever liever Ben Wilkins was then unable to get the remaining two outs before all three run runners ners scored. The team returned to Sa Sa-lem lem at 10:30 p.m. Monday night questioning what exactly it is that is causing them to go hot and cold this season. The team had the potential to win all three games against Whitworth. These games were Whitworth's first con conference ference games, but the team has not been con considered sidered tough competition in the past due to weak pitching and hitting. In retrospect, it conies down to the funda fundamentals mentals for Willamette's team. "Baseball is an easy game," said Hall. "Catch the ball, throw th ball, throw the ball accurately. Hit the ball where they aren't. That's what we did in the first game." The other games were where the funda fundamentals mentals did not occur. "We just had a break down. We didn' t have hits when we had runners in scoring positions," Hall said. Willamette goes up against Linfield next in their quest to dig them themselves selves out of a 3-6 hole in conference play. Linfield is currently second in the conference. They look to make this weekend's games chal challenging lenging for the Bearcats judging from their past track record. Linfield has beaten Lewis & Clark State from Idaho, the number one NAIA Division II team in the country, twice this year in non-conference play. Willamette faces the team in McMinnville at 3 p.m. today and again in Salem in a double header starting at 1 p.m. "We all see them as our main rival and we would love to turn things around and sweep them," said sophomore pitcher Abe Cohen. "Even though the season hasn't been going as planned it would defintely be a good thing to build on for the rest of the season." Currently, only Whitman has a worse record in conference, putting the Bearcats in sixth place in the league. Pacific Lutheran is leading the league at this point in the season, but Willamette does not play them until May. Baseball is an easy game. Catch the ball, throw the ball, throw the ball accurately. Hit the ball where they aren't. That's what we did in the first game." Bryan Hall, junior This week. . .

They just have to develop their competitive edge," she said. V Men's tennis i in Willamette's Athlete of the Week tennis: Kim Yokoyama junior, 1 singles Hilo, Hawaii Kim Yokoma, Willamette's women's team number 1 singles player has been hard at work this season both playing and leading the team. She is the only returning player this year and is providing vital leadership to the younger players on the team. "She is really intense on the court which is a good role model for us," said her doubles partner, freshman Megan Frey. "She is very encouraging and always has enocouraging words during our doubles matches." Yokama is renound for her intensity and seriousness on the court during matches. It has a positive affect on the team, players say. "She is so intense that it brings you up a level," said Frey. Yokama has had a relatively goo d season so far, although she lost to Lewis & Clark's number 1 player last week when the team faced their neighbor from the North. Earlier in the season Yokama did beat Lewis & Clark's number 1 player. Yokama is currently the only player in the conference to have beaten lwis& Clark's number 1. Yokoyarr.a is one of the top singles players in the conference this year according to her coach, Molly Sigado. "She has been playing well," Sigado commented. "And she has a great shot at the conference title." Men avenge loss to Puget Sound by Doug Lewis Staff Writer Everything appears to be falling into place for the men's tennis team. It seams they have solved their problems at the doubles positions, beat a team that earlier in the year routed them, and are doing all this while preparing for the conference tournament, which is two weeks away. Head Coach Russ Beaton is excited about how his team is playing. "I'm happy right now," Beaton said. "We've been playing well." Last Saturday the Bearcats beat the University of Puget Sound 5-4, after UPS had destroyed them 1-8 earlier in the year. "That was a good win for us," Beaton commented. "After losing to them earlier in the year by so much and then beating them was great." For the third time this year, Willamette swept the top three singles spots and then lost the next three to go into the doubles matches even with the opponent. This is where the doubles play becomes so important and is key that they come up with a solid lineup that is not going to change very often. Beaton has been trying out different combinations all year at the number one and two doubles spots and thinks he has finally found the right combination with senior Alan Vestergaard and sophomore Derek McCarthy team teaming ing up at number one and senior Eric Norland and freshman Casey Connoway doing the same at the second spot. Vestergaard and McCarthy won 6-4, 6-4, while Norland and Connoway won 6-3, 6-1. "The new pairings show a lot of promise for solving our doubles problems," Beaton said. "We had trouble finding the right match. "We were switching the teams around until Eric just told me that he would play at number two and bring up a younger guy to play with him. It appears to have worked pretty well so far." The Bearcats are now playing their best tennis of the year, according to Beaton. "We beat Gonzaga, which is a NCAA Divsion-One school, and then beat UPS, who beat us earlier, all in the past two weeks," Beaton said. Beaton feels that Norland, who is the defending district and conference champion, can once again take the title. Eric is playing really well," Beaton said. "He played against an inspired player last week and 1 - ' - - " ' :' ? "! . ... g 3 Senior Alan Vesterguard takes a backhand Sunday in a home match. He rwashonored as the Athlete of the weekfor his performance in the match. still got the win," he said. Norland won 7-5, 3-6, 6-4. In his first two seasons, Norland was runner up to the conference champion. In addition to Norland, Beaton thinks that the doubles team of Vestergaard and McCarthy have a good chance at doing well in the conference tournament. "Allan and Derek are both playing well and they have a shot at the top," Beaton said. This year the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics decided to combine the district and conference teams into one large conference. It used to be that the schools in the same region formed the district, and the districts formed the conference. Willamette is playing Pacific Lutheran University today in Tacoma. PLU is the best team in the conference and is the favorite to win the conference title. Tomorrow's match against the University of Oregon is cancelled. Wednesday's match against Lewis and Clark was cancelled because of rain and is going to be made up on Monday in Portland. v V Drug testing in sports Dwight Gooden suspended a third time for drugs ST.

Eventually, the Senate over overrode rode the President's authority as chair by majority vote and moved on to debate the bill. The Bill to Prevent Write-In Candidates In a Run-Off Election was submitted by several senators, a CLA student, and five of this year's officer candidates. The bill was de designed signed to reverse a decision made by Elections Board on Tuesday that al allowed lowed a write-in space in Wednes Wednesday day and Thursday's general elec election. tion. The bill states that the intention of the constitution is "perverted" by the Elections Board's decision and that for offices in which majority votes were not reached in Wednes Wednesday day and Thursday's election, a new election must be held between the two candidates that received the highest number of votes in the pri primary mary election. This would prohibit any write-in candidate from making the ballot in any election for '95-'96 ASWU officers. The most difficult part of the debate for senators was deciding if the Elections Board had upheld the intent of the Constitution. Secretary Berneche presented an in-depth re report port explaining the Elections Board's intensive search to make a decision about whether or not to allow write write-in in candidates in a run-off election. Including references from the ASWU constitution, Encyclopedia Britannica, Oregon Statute, Robert's Rules of Order, ASWU Bylaws and the Oregon Blue Book, accompa accompanied nied with the approval of nationally licensed parliamentarian Shane Dunbar, Berneche reported that the issue had been well researched.
