Because of the trouble of liabilit)-, NIC Aet ivities Chairman Dennis Gorringe informed 1he board at its regular Sept. 18 mc-eting that an ASNIC cruise would not bc feasible this year.

Gorringe said 1ha1 he would tall 10 the board's lawyer and sec 3bout ha,ing s1udcnts coming 10 the dance sign waivers. but some qucsuons still remain on that practice as well.

"It's kinda like passing the buck," Gorringe said, adding 1ba1 theoretically the bo:ird Sllll would be responsible.

Gorringe also said an NIC skate/ dance "ill be held Oo. I5 from 7 until

Trustees plan realignment of Garden b> Ed McDonald The NIC Board of Trustees unanimously vored Sepe. 17 10 approve a projeet 1ha1 would realign West Garden Avenue be1ween the Sherman School Building and where the SUB and library arc joined.

Dean or Adminimation Rolland Jurgens told 1he board that the esumated pncc or the project was $146,932.

He also said 1ha1 1he estimated cost or the proJcct includ~ SIS ,31S for landscaping and would also help cover the expense or updaung c.xisring warer and sewage lines.

According 10 Jurgens, pare of rhc expense involved with the warer and sewage lines may come from the city.

Trusree Bob Ely qu~Lionc:d how rhe realignmem project would be of any benefi1 10 students. Board member Beverly Berni~ explained tha1 increased safely for drivel'$ and pcd~trians would be 1he bigges1 benerir.

Exisung parking places which would be affcc1ed by 1he reabgnment proJect would be relocated from the south side of Garden Avenue 10 1hc nonh !>1dc or srrcct in fron1 of 1he McHugh House.

Presidenl Barry Schuler told the board 1h01 some funds would need to

taken from the library/computer science

for the realignment project. The amount needed was no1 disclosed.

Schuler also announced that the Idaho St.ate Board of Education had met in Pocatello the previous and had recommended that NIC's library/computer science building project be placed in category two of the state's Permanent Building Fund.

He c:tplained that although the board of education's recommcndauon .,.as promising, the funds needed for the new building .,.as still no1 at the cop of the board of education's list.

He explained to the trustees that the stare board of cduca1ion lists projects for the building fund by alphabeucal order within each category. Ca1cgory one projecu receive higher priority than category two projects.

Schuler told 1hc tl'U5Lce:s tha1 perhaps he had erred when he chose to call 1hc new building 1he library/computer science building rather than 1hc computer science/library building ~hich would have given the project higher priority in ca1cgory two.

The 1rus1ccs also learned, from Schuler, tha1 the stare board of education has a5ked NIC to prepare a rcpon

telling them.,. here S7J.5J3 can be taken from the college's 198S-86 budge1.

At last month's meeting. the 11us1ces had alrcad) a;,pro, ed setting aside S3S.OOO in anticipation of a 1.5 percent cut in the budget. Instcad, the trustees must no.,. set aside another $35 ,543 to help mect the 2.S pcrccn1 holdback.

In 01hcr action. the board of tr1J.11ccs:

-decided 10 not do work the Fort Ground Association had asked for help .,.i,h. Jurgens c.~plained that the colleg( did not ha,e the proper cqu1pmcn1 for the job.

-accepted a check for S:!,000 from the Citizens Council for the Ans. The check v.as the council's coniribuuon to1<ard con.s1ruc1ion of 1he Lakeside Thc:uer.

Therapist helps with school's blues A clinical therapist no.,. is available free of charge to IC students who need help finding solutions 10 1heir ~onal problems. . .

According to Dr. Eli Ross, s1uden1s .,.ho are ha,1ng trouble balancing 1hc demands of college and family. jobs aud grade poin1 a,erages, tests and personal relationships no.,. can see him m the student services area on the second floor or the SUB. The need for :i therapist 10 help students deal wi1h 1hcir problems was identified long ago. according 10 Joan Brogan. NIC nursing education director.

College lawsuits impactjul on NIC b) Mike ou ndcrs

In whnt is being called a troubling case for collegts and universities. 11 Colorodo judge hns awarded SS.2 million in damages 10 n former University of Denver s1udcn1.

This ruling represents a new trend in which couru are holding colleges more nnd more accountable for 1he conduc1 of m1dcnts.

According 10 nn nrucle by College Press Service, four years ngo. UD student Oscnr Wh11lock became pnroly1ed after falling orr u 1r:1mpoline at a schoolowned fra1ernity house.

Restaurants burn columnist A friend and I went out

lunch not too long ago because she was leaving Coeur d'Alene. She suggested we go to Wendy's because the) ' 'have a great salad bar."

That was fine wnh me-I figu red a liule gerbil food has nt\cr eaten anybody, so I said, " What the heck~ ..

We both ordered the all-you<an-eat salad bar and commenced 10 chow down on scrumpdiUy'lshes mo~ of lettuce. tomatoes, sunflov.er seeds (salted), and flies.

Yep! That's right. Thete I was read>· 10 sinx my teeth into a nice crisp piece of lettuce and staring back at me was a common-looking housefly. Belie"e me, I got a pretty good look at tum.

Well. I calmh' told tbe woman with "'horn I was sitting to watch her salad because uiere may be a hatch on. ~be 1n turn told me that I should tell one of young Ladies running around in those ~ill) little hats about that piece of meat in my all-vegetarian salad.

Knowing a girl who was \\ Orking there, I took the demt~ed creature over to her. (I did this descrectly because l lrn~ 1f t\ erybody heard me. they too would want one in their salad.)

•· Do you save these complimentary tidbits for special people, or d~ everybody get one."

Well, the poor girl didn't know"'hether to defccaie or ~'Orne myopic. but she replied, ''Oh, that's gross! l'U go tell the manager right now."

I don't know reall) what I expected. I guess at the lea,1 I thought the manager would pay for my meal or maybe e,cn offer me a V. endy's franchise or something, but nothing happened.

When the manager failed to appear, I showed m) prize to the older couple sit1ing next to me and a fe"' other people \\ithin eyeshot and left ii at that.

This next srory, however. is a lit1lc more disheartening.

I went into the Rustler's Roost a little over a week ago with another friend of mine- we were on n recuperating mission from Pounder Land.

We were mer at the door by a pleasant young man whom I found out later was named Woody McE"ers.

Well, Woody said that it would be just a f~· minutes because they were in the process of clearing some tables and asked if "'e would wait in the foyer . Upon request, he handed Joe a mug of coffee and I a mug of Pike's Street tea, and he ushered us back outSidc.

While we were on our way out the door. two Coeur d'Alene police officers were on Lheir way in and one of them says to Wood>·, " Oh. We're gonna have to wait a minute. huh?"

And, Woody, in an omnipotent voice, said, ' 'Nope. There's a table right there," and he pointed to a table just inside the door. The 1wo then proceeded to walk in and sit down.

Now, my ego is still a little scrambled. but I wanted to be fair wi th this article and roast everybody that had something to do "' ith this injustice. so I gor one officer's name. Roland Watson. off his name tag and then called city hall the next day to get the name of his panner.

Well, they put Roland on the phone and I said, " Roland could you tell me the name of the officer you bad lunch with yesterday."

"What time," he answered. I don't know why he asked this- perhaps he had lunch more than once that day. " Oh, right around 1 p.m.," I said.

"I don't belic\•e l " as out around I p.m."

"Oh, yes. You were. I sat in the booth behind you at the Rustler's Roost." ··1 don't recall,'' he answered.

Let me get this strllight; This guy has been hired by the city of Coeur d'Alene to protect and serve and to make split-second decisions in,·ohing life and property and be can 't even remember who he had lunch with the day before. CenainJy one of our city's finest.

At any r~te, Woody and Wendy's. I'm not sure 1can justif} ~,siung your es1abhshments anymore. but 1 hope you'll forgi\'e the absenct of my presence. Flies and police officers arc probably more on your menu. an~ay.

Trustees don 't know when to le:we a sleeping dinosaur lie.

On Aug. 20, in an execu1ive session meeting of the board, membersled by Schuler-discussed ·•censoring" some of the NLC Sentinel editor's \\ riting . Whether the word "censor" was used or not makes no difference- what happened behind those closed doors has the same effect.

Since that mecti~, certain que..~tions have risen as to whether the meeting was even legru in accordance with the Idaho Open Meeting Law. The la,\ states that an c.xecut ive session may be held : (b) "to consider the evaluation, dismissal or disciplining of. or 10 hear cornplni111s or charge brought agai nst, a public offi cer, employee. staff member o r individual agent, or public school student."

Given the circumstonces of the controversial Schuler's daughter's wedding, it is prell}' obvious who was doing the complainin$ and to whom.

The fact of the mauer is that Schuler got caught w11h his hand in the cookie jar and the Sentinel ed itor slammed the lid down on his finger~.

The board of trustees, in all its infi nite wisdom should have thanked the editor for bringing this 10 its a11en1 ion. After all, he saved the area taxpayer) almost $500 and saved the board'~ butt if the scandal would have emerged a liu le farther down the line.

Instead, they met in executive session and entertained Schulcr's thoughts of censorship. Luckily some of those present knew what the First Amendment is a nd put the big veto on the plan.

However, to get around that rule, they gave Sentinel adviser Nils Rosdahl the title of publisher, with the authority 10 censor.

What a frog-feces thing to do. Now, Rosdahl (who is here on a oneyear contract, hoping to return 10 NI C) find s himself in a dilemmahis job or a truly free press- which is indeed what it boils down to.

So, following the meeting, when an administrator told Rosdahl 10 have a word wnh the editor about the tone of some of his editorials, what was he supposed to do? He had told the editor he would not censor his stuff and he reiterated it in the Press Ethics Column in the Sept.

13 issue of the Sentinel.

However, in the same issue, he indeed did censor a paragraph in the board of trustees story on page 2 because it rcnected poorly on him and the administration.

The paragraph should have read 1 "The board then agreed to make Sentinel Adviser Nils Rosdahl publisher of the newspaper, and he was instructed later 10 talk to the editor about the tone of some of his editorials. rnstead it read, " ... Rosdahl publisher of che newspaper with all the powers that a publisher would assume. " Rosdahl realized that by telling the editor that he was inscructed to have a word with him from a higher authority meant that indeed the administration was "censoring" the editor's material- a direct violation of che f irst Amendment.

It's damn time Schuler and the uustees pull their heads out of their behinds, tend to board business and leave the now supposedly "free press'' alone.

South Africa: Not enough whitewash Americans can't seem to make up their minds whether they are supposed to interfere in the affairs of other nations or not.

Many of the people who are advocating that the United States stay out of Latin American politics are the same people who are pressuring our government to intervene in South African politics.

America has not earned the right to play moral watchdog to the rest of the world. Just because our "apartheid" is not governmentally legislated does not mean that i1 does not exist. The "Bantustans" (black LOwnships) in this country aren't much better than the ones in South Africa: Walls in LA, Harlem in NY, downtown Detroit, the Southside of Chicago.

The Jjst goes on ad nauseam.

In a Spokesmen-Review article (Sat. Sept.

14), Chicago Tribune writer Jon Margolis revealed how, through clever chicaner~¡, politicians divide voting di_stricts in a way that practically negates the black vote in this country. For each liberal black government seat there is a conservative seat whose vote cancels the other's. The lopsided ratio of white 10 black politician~ makes the black vote almost futile. Perhaps the holier-than-thou crowd should be a liulc embarrassed by such blatant hypocrisy.

On the African front, the issue is extremely complicated. It seems that people in this country are joining forces to pressure the South Africans into doing what Americans themselves would not do.

First, the Afrikaners are not colonials; their Dutch ancestors homesteaded that land over 350 years ago. South Africa belongs to the them just as the United States belongs 10 its white seulers. (Even if they practically did annihilate the ind1genous population and placed the remainder on reservations where most of them live still-no apanheid here?) The Afrikaners. unlike the British or Belgians, have no homeland to which they can return-they are home. That is what differentiates the South African dilemma from the colonial occupations of other parts of Africa: Nigeria, the Belgian Congo (Zaire), Nonhern Rhodesia (Zambia) etc.

Second, the ratio of blacks 10 whites (24 million powerless blacks to 4 mHlion controlling whites) makes even simple concessions difficult. For example, if blacks are given lhe vote. simple mathematics dictate what the inevitable outcome of any election would be.

If blacks in this country outnumbered the whites, blacks would still not have the right tO VOte. Furthermore. it is sad but true that blacks

f,Y-.t/, \.\$1~~.i'n~¡~ m\~G R~ ?ROOR~SS ~a~! 00 YOU~~ AA't ~~KS 1 fl.1 1'!\~ SA(.\<. OF 1'!\a WS! ' in Africa, general!~, have a less than impressive record of post "liberation" achie, ement. In countries" here the colonial whites have relinquished po"er to the blacks. there is a depressing history of failure in selfgovernment, economic stability and human rights. (Granted. the" bite opress1on and lack of black education is responsible, to Var)ing degrees, for some of those failures.)

One example. in N1gena alone, the government has changed hands si., Limes through military coups since the British left m 1960.

Unfortunately. each respective regime deserved to be o,ertbro\\n.

Also. it i discouraging that the blacks in South Africa are not united into a monoliLhic block; there are nine different tribes and several different polilical facuons.

Chances arc slight that black moderates would take control should the whites be ousted. Chances are great that once the common enemy is removed. fighting would break out among the various groups and a more violent faction , such as the outlawed African National Congress could sieze power through force, possibly introducing a more oppressive, murderous regjme than the one in existence. ls it less immoral for blacks to murder and oppress blacks than it is for whites to murder and oppress blacl:.s?

Back on this continent, it is important to consider who is pushing for sanctions and ""by. When businessmen, international bankers and other money/ power brokers begin involving themselves in moral issues, one can almost be sure that their motives have nothing 10 with morality.

In,cstors who have millions of dollars sunk into the South African mining industry, for example, cenainJy don't want 10 see a political uprising that would collapse the economy, re the mining industry. So to avoid this, they push for sanctions in the hope of forc1ng the government 10 make concessions.

If the Frencb Aristocracy had made even token concessions to the peasants, the peasants probably wouldn'I have ovenhrown the aristocracy, thus enabling them to maintain possession of the capital and the capitalproducing infrastructure of the country.

Beware of men of money preaching benevolence.

The demise of the white minority government of South Africa seems imminent. We can onJy watch that country burn and hope that a new Phoenix will rise from the ashes.

We have no right to push our pretentious morality-liberal or conservative-on any other nation in the world.

"Let be who is without sin cast the first stone."

Let 's see. Before " ~liami Vice" wasn't there a couple of guys named Starsky and Hutch? Yeah, v. cren't they the real nice, Hollywood macho men who also liked to kick the pooh-pooh out of society's degenerate low-lifcs every week?

If it's not the fashion designers and script writers crying to dish ouc warmed-up leftovers to the consumers, it's somebody else. 'ow, I've learned, it's the fairy tale industry, and I'm speculating that the :,.;1c Board of Trustees is behind this preposterous movement. It surely is a Grimm situation, and I ask is nothing sacred anymore?

The board of Lrusttcs has been busy the past few months putting together. of all things, itS '80s version of "The Emperor's New Clothes."

According to the plot, the trustees would like to "dress" up the comer of Hubbard Street and West Garden Avenue with a formal enLranccfor a mere $43,385 (another S60,795 11,ilJ go towards lighting the new entrance as well as other areas of the campus) to be paid out over the next year.

Granted, better lighting is needed in some areas of the campus, but why now? Haven't the trustees taken note that Idaho is not exactly in the midst of good times? Unemployment remains consistently high in t-:onh Idaho, a~d I feel strongly that uupaycrs arc unfairly footing the bill for an obviously frivolous expense. wai.

ed mcdonald Why not ha,e the law enforcement students do something more constructive other tha.n wruing parking cita1ions? Him: patrol areas that are poorly lit.

As for the new entrance, I cannot begin to see how students or the public will profit from an cxtravagam entrance to the college. One administrative figure told a Sentinel reporter that the expense of the project was justified because a formal enLrancc to the college would let people know where the Fort Grounds residential area ends and where college property begins. Huh? Excuse me, but most of my formal education has been limited to NJC. C'mon, even Duane Hagadone's humble abode is not as big as the C-A Building, and I've yet to hear of anyone ever mistaking a neighborhood residence for a classroom. Any person with half an ounce of sawdust in his head is able to tell where the college's property begins without being overwhelmed by a concrete, electrical cxt.ravagani..a upon arriving on campus.

Last ye2r, t.be trustees approved the purchase of a bus for $60,000 (Ely's folly) th.at few students will ever benefit from or even see the inside of. And now the trustees have come up with yet another way to waste taxpayers money-realign Garden Avenue which was just upgraded not more than a couple of years ago.

The board of trustees needs to spend less time worrying whether or not they will leave some sort of monument at NIC to be remembered by and get back to the business of giving better quality service to both students and overburdened taXpayers.

Delightful trip down under In the basement of the Sub is the gameroom. No thcre·s no poker. no blackjack and student.s can't bet on the horses there.

What students can do there is: pick up their student ID cards, buy reduced-rate tickets 10 the area movie theaters. listen to a wide array of music on quality equipment. locate student services and play ping-pong or pool or one of the many video games that arc down there.

If one grows weary of all that, one could always sprawl out on a couch in a TV room and w::uch football!

john hughes Tube's not always for boobs Once again, television has $hown me wruit a wonderful medium it ha\ the potential to be. Does it do that nov. and then just to spite me?

On Sunday, Sept. 15, CBS aired a n· ,ersion of Anhur ~tiller' . ''Death of a Salesman." Boy. it sure 11,as good This wouJdn 't have been that much of a surpmc (not chat It was good, but that it was aired), 1f 11 had been sho,,. non KPBS (public tclc, ~ion).

The fact that it was shown on nct,,.orJ.. T\ made it a tclC\ision C\enl indeed.

One reason for this ts because network telC'\i~on bas the mone} to advertise, as no one else can, to attrac: a lari!e audience . .\lso, for manr people, network television is safe. Some people ma} ha,c been less inclined to watch it had it been on .. that educational channel ·• And ma) be, just ma) be, some people ,,. ho were prepared to ~11 down to their us~al Sunday night fare of "Trapper John \f D.," "~lurder She Wrote" and a third show that was also pre-empted (the name of which escapes me), might ha,e 11,atchcd it.

"Is it time for our shows, Martha?"

"Weelll Harold, I hate LO tell you this. but thm good 1ho11,~ :un't on. Instead there's some stupid special on about some dumb-ass dead salesman."

"Yer kiddin'. Heck, it's already on CBS so let'~ wat.:-h and see what killed him. honey."

Who knows what may have happened!

Maybe they would have experienced a catharsis that could have changed their lives forever!

"Tell me Manha, do you agree that Dustin Hoffman's ponrayal of the protagonist, Willy Loman, was powerful and poignant?"

"Oh. indubitably Harold. His intepretation of the nuances of the literature was truly impeccable. More brand)', love?"

OK. OK. That probably didn't happen: and not everyone who watches network television is like Harold and Martha. But one never knows.

Television has a long history of producing junk for a reason. People watch it.

A nyway, I'm very curious to learn what the network determined the viewing audience for ''Death of a Salesman" was. It will be interesting to sec how a classic piece of American theater did on the old "box."

1 do hope well. faperiments live or die b>· the ratings, as docs everything else on TV. I admit that when I first heard that ..Salesman" was going to be on television, I assumed it was going to be on PBS (I don't have a TV. so I wasn't exposed to all the ads.)

When 1 discovered that it was on nerwork television. I was aghast.

I thought, " How could they possibly expect me to watch 'Death or a Salesman' with commercial interuptions?"

The truth is, the commercials were simply dreadful-those despicable, money-hungry, heartless Yuppies.

The program was sponsored by Apple Computers, and the ads rcaJly were a drag. However. Apple did buy a huge chunk or prime air time to do somethi ng truly wonhwhilc-to them, 1 doff my cap in appreciation.

The CBS network, and the others as well, should be careful not to spoil viewers with too many quality programs like "Death of a Salesman." If they do, it won't be long before people won't be able to sit through any more episodes of "Trapper John She Wrote Something Else I Can't Remember." Of course, I 11,ouldn't bet on that.

'Grace' needs God's grace

by Dan B~cden Firs1 of all. I have a cold...and I real· ly didn't want 10 go to a movie in the fi1s1 place. Bui I was assigned that, so I did just 1ha1-I wen1 to a movie.

Bui ii wasn'I jus1 any movie, and I really don't think that i1 is jus1 ano1her cold.

I 100k a couple of Comtrex before I wcn1, but I forgot 10 buy some Hold cough drops-but that probably 1urned out for the best, because Com1rcx tend 10 put me aslccp, but I couldn't very well sleep if I was coughing. And I hate sleeping m movie thc:11ers. I usually get a kink in my neck nnd if my mouth drops open. people behind me 1ry 10 throw Popcorn in10 lhe opening.

Therefore, I did see a movie-in it's entirety.

Oh, I guess I haven't said which movie I saw I saw ''Grace Quigley" with Katharine Hepburn and Nick Nohe. There. I ~aid ii.

It's a story aboul a 1hrivlng business of executing old, er, I mean elderly peo· pie who art' 1ired of living. Sound gro~s and crude and bloody and 1houghtless and a wee bit ecceniric? It's really no1but then, like I said, I have a cold.

And. remember, I said that I look II couple of Com1rex before I went, ~o 3C· 1Ually h could even be 53id that I was on dru~. That would not be a lie.

Fim of nil, Irr me li,1 the things I liked about the movie: I) the popcorn w115 good, 2) the theater ~cn1 wu, real. ly comfortnblc; 3) 1hcrc was n 1rnsh can ngh1 in lront of me so I dldn'1 have 10 put my g:ubngc on the noor: 4) the PoP IYIL\ cold, und SJ it wn\ dnrl. in the 1hca1cr- l hntc set'mg n movie ll'hen lmlf 1hc hghl\ arc on. i\ctuall)•, 1 am being n Huie s1ingy.

The music m 1he movie was good. I til.c Katharine Hepburn. I lil..c Nic'k Nohe.

Bui I'm no1 ~urc 1r I like Knthnnnc Hep· burn and Nick Nohe together. I al\O liked the )Ubjcc1 mauer-11 had tremendous p01cn1ml to mnke a great movie. but a great mO\'te II Wlll, 1101.

Now, for the thmg.s I disliked: I) the cold I took with me 10 the movie; 2) the price I paid; 3) the little turd sming 1wo rows do;,. n from me that kept :.skinl his K·Mart mother that famous question, "But why, mommy'?", and 4) the ending.

I said earlier that I liked the subject mauer. Thi~ subject of euthanasia can be handled two ways: a bloody kinda movie along 1he lines of the "Teitas Chainsaw Massacre" or a lighl·hcaned funny movie like "Ghostbusters."

"Grace Quigley" borders on the latttr of 1hcse but should have been taken much fur1her.

Wha1 was 1here was good. The movie was full of pun~-some more obvious than 01hers-but once again, I was on drugs, so I may have missed some.

The ending never should have ended where i1 did. It was as if 1hc mO\oie cdi1ors looked up a11he clock and said, "Oh, my God. 1t·s already been 100 minutes. Lei's ~top it here."

The movie rc"olvcs a.round the fact 1ha1 1herc uc a lot of elder!} people in the world who arc tired or living, bu1 for some reason or another thel have 10 Slick uound.

Groce Quigley goes abou1 changing thal by going m10 business 11,11b Seymour Flynt-she contacts will.ing. elderly people wi1h money" ho want to check out. and he- l.1lb them, in any manner 1ha1 they wish to go.

And. a~ Grace ~o elequentl)' puts 11.

The national government also provides free and reduced-rate lunches for children. according to Shnla Gra>·. lunch program sccrccary for t.hc Coeur d'Alene School Dismct. ''This is often the best meal of the day. " Gray said. adding that on an average, 900 free and 260 reduced-rate lunches arc served each day.

Howc"er. each of these government programs 1nvol,·es a ircmcndous a.mount of paperwork :ind verificauon. but during the red-cape intenm. lh~e people still need 10 cat-and that is when the food bank comes in handy.

ith sanctio. ns being levied against South Africa for its apartheid p0lides and lhe hype that the press is gJVJng the issue, it is important to know exactly what is going on down there and why n concerns America.

As with many political issues nowadays. money 1s a key issue. but 11 goes much deeper.

According 10 NIC studem William Roben An· drew Hall, most of the people in the U.S. don't really underswnd apartheid and 1u ramiticauons on the wc<;ttrn world.

Roben, who\c homeland i\ Paarl, South Afnc.i-just north of Capetown-comes to North Idaho bec~use of his lo\·e of the mouma1m and the Pacific Northwest.

The mam problem in South Africa, Robert \aid. is that the United State!. expects h1\ country to change O\Crn1gh1. The more they do lo improve the racial unrest, the more the U.S. wanis them 10 do.

Robert, quo11ne his country's foreign m1m\ter PII. Botha. ,aid, ''The world wanh one change and one change only: We mus1 accept su1c1de Joyfully.''

"That·~ the fechnS' of a 101 of wh11e Soulh African~."

Robert ~rud. "They feel 1h01 we are being pushed by the world imo mok1ng changcl 100 fMt .

You nrc cx11«11ng u~ to do things 1hat will 101nlly destroy the wh11~ tn South Africa.''

"And we've b~n there for over 300 years, so o 101 of us have go1 nowhere el~e 10 go."

Robert ~aid 1ha1 c"en though he doc) behe\·e in apartheid, he mcs\ed that he does not behe\C In apnrthcid as it is right now in has coun1ry.

"Separate dc"cloprncnt i~ all npanheid means; 1ha1 each no1ion htu a right 10 choo5e its own dcs1tnics," he said. "But o lot of people tn my counlry 1wis1ed il around and mt1dc it a S)mbol of hatred throughoul the "orld " The apartheid policy that i5 now undergoing changes, and righl full}' )0, 1s what Roben referred lo as ''petty apanhcid. " In ~cn.:t, pc11y t1parthcid is segregauon, Roben said. Having )epar:11c buses for the blacks and making them ride in their own coaches on the roilwuy S)'Slcm- lhC$e arc the thing~ that Robert oppo~cs-and so de>cs hi) father.

In fact, Robert's dad opposed it so much he left the country 1n 1967 10 raise his family in "hat " as then Rhodesia, nonh of South Africa. When Roben was 19 hi) family returned 10 South Africa and he went to worl in Johannesburg.

The trouble in South Africa, and the 1lung that most people in Amcnca do not understand is that South Africa 1s made up or a lot of diffcrc n1 tribes or people with " hitcs, blacls, colored (mhcdl and Indians all living together- and each of these has a different language. "ln the United States, Americans h.ave go1 1t,cd to a S)'Slcm lhal's like a melting Pot. AU )'Our race.\ ha\e come together," Robert snid. · 'You've

got a system where no one group can dominate the olhcr."

"In South Africa, that is not the case at all.

Sou1h Africa would be the same as looking at Europe. I f )'OU can imagine trying to bring all those countries together and the chaos that would ~olvc," !Robert said. "That would be the same situation in South Africa."

Robert said that the moderates in his countrywhich he is considered himself-oppose pell} apartheid, bul they are afraid that one group will gain control of 1hc country.

"We oppose apartheidwe don't

behC\'C in judging a man b> the color of Im sl..m-bu1 the moderates arc =cd or one group dommoung anolher," Robert ~d The ~oluuon 10 the problem .u Robert sen 11ns do m:iny of the mod.erates-1s g1\ing each 1nbe their 0\1111 count!'} and ltlllllJ the wlutcs h3\C tbcir own. Both w1Lhtn South Africa The problem, Robert stressed. 11,ould be sphll1ag the counlr) fairl) so that l."\Ct)'One rcu an equal share of the " calth or the countr).

"A lol of "hiles and blad.s feel that a fedcrauon \\ Ould be the :uu111er to m) country's problems."

B> a federation. Robert said that each n.auonalit) would ha\e control O\'Cf it.S O"ll intern.al affairs. cullura.1 identities and economics. But then there \\Ould be a ccmral govcmment-simil:i.r to the U.S. Senate-\\here there "ould be one rcprcscnuuhc from each countr) "ho would ha, e one \Ole. This, Robert added, would be so that one group could not domiMtc ano1her Roben str~ that this may not be the 3.0S"Cr and ii ma} not e,cn be feasible. hO\\l."\er. it "ould be a starting point.

Even lhough the chMgcs in apartheid policies haq~ come ,lowl)'. Robert Sllld that progress llas been made.

For instance in Janulll') a la" "as

rescinded that forbade mixed marriages between blacks and whites. He pointed out that 16 states in the United States had tha1 same law until 1969.

He also ,aid lllat 3

"That's the feeling m South Africa, .. Robert rc11cra.1ed. •·we feel 11oe·\·e changed and now the result is that the v,orld i.s asking for more." · That's v.h)· v.e feel that someone, somewhere ~ definuely out to get our butt\, 1ha1's for sure."

But Robert added that hypocrisy also h adding fuel to the =al fire.

Robert said, "All J,800.000 "hnes must lenve the continent of Afm:a or be slaughtered."

"1'ow that rcall) d~ tend to encourage racial harmon)," Robert saJd sarC3Jtieall> He added dw v.eal. Amencan leaders and foreign policies in the past also show a lot of hypocrisy Md 1nconsis1ency.

According 10 Cohen, the most common and least npensl\c method for sex pre· ~clecuon was de,ised by Dr Landrum B. Shcules in the 1960s.

Shc11Jes' method IS based on the lhcol) that a m3.11·~ male \ptrm-be1118 ~mailer, rounder and foster-reaches the egg quicker in an alkaline en,·ironment. Female reproductive organs a.re all..nline just prior too, ula11on :10d just after douching with baking soda. Timing. therefore, is the major conce'll with this method.

'.'I.IC 1s breaking oev. ground for students "'1th learning di~biliues. \\1th th, college's "open door policy:· Donald Sprague, head of the psychol<>g) depanmcm. said I.hat "IIC admits leaming-dlsablcd students who hope the} can come to the ~hool and receive a pos1-secondar} education C\·en though they read ai a mth-to-cighthgrade level.

"It exms h1dden.. .it i.s very diffic:ult to sec,..

Sprague said of lea.ming disabibues. "An IQ of 100 1s average. so when people 141th learning diS3bilities ha,e a severe differenc.c in achle,ement by t14o-thirds, it "'ould be class11ied as a discrepency."

A survey of 800 Student.s entmng NIC produced a conservati\·e estimate thai 2 percent are professionally diagn~ as having a learning disability, Sprague said, while another 5 percent behC\e they have a lc:irning disability.

With an "extremely good chance•· of receiving fund.s from a Dec. 16 federal grant, Sprague wd he ,s cxoted about building a program specifically design· ed for leammg-dllablcd students at "IIC. Sprague ~1d he plaru 10 construct a commiuec of foC'Ult)' members-one from each department-to develop a curnculum ~o the> can help students in thcir spcc1f1c field of dhab1ht).

The committee, according to Sprague. 11,ill c1 aluatc. diagno..c and produce a reasonable set of mod1fica11on~ bet14l'tll the Student and the 1rmru~1or.

Sprague said if for any reason a tcaebfi doesn't mal..e accommodauom for the!>!: students, the msuuctor possibly could face a la" su11.

) J ~ Bowling over pinh eadsat§;l~

( sentinel sports

ln recent )'CMS, bowling has seen quite a drop in popularicy-almost into the gutter, you might say. However, a different twist to the game has boosted its popularity with all ages: Casino Bowling.

On casino night, about one-founh of the pins arc colored. They arc racked at random, and whenever they lie in the proper positions, the bov.ter has a chance to win a certain amount of money if he get.s a strike or spare.

The idea of gambling crossed "ith bowling didn't strike me as being up my alley. or something I'd real!)· like 10 do in my spare time.

However, I tried it anrwa), and I must admit, it reall> bo\>led me o,cr.

The night went something lil-e 1h11: The ume was ·:so p.m. The four of us entered the bowling a!IC} and got our lane assignments. We paid 1he s~ .50 for three gamC"S and cho>C our ball,.

It wu that 1.56. V. c me! our l3nc partners. Noema and Gilbert. lnurrud3, tion set m. Their bodies v.erc shaped «> much like the ptns that 11..ne,,. they had spent the maJOnt) of their li\c, m a bowling aJIC) .

8 p.m. Casino bowlin!! began when the announcer started telling the bowlers "hen they had 10 pins in a potential win

situation.

At 8:10 I had the chance to win SI on my first frame "ilh a mike but felt the need to miss so I "ouldn't psych ou1 my friends .

It " as S: 15, and lightning struck again. This time I had 1he ~ha nee to win 50 cents "ith a two-pin spare, but I decided it wasn ' l enough money 10 put out that kind or effort. To pro,c I was tr)iog, howc,cr, I narrowly missed il.

8: 17. By no" my friends were feeling the need to win some cash.

8:2 I J fell challenged "hen the 7-year-old, thttt lanes down, glanced at me llJld then struck for SIO. Once again I restrained myself from looking like I knew what I was doing, and it was at that time I realized I would have to do this the rest of the night.

It "as no" 8:29. Nocma decided we 1.:nev. each other well enough by now to tell me all about her cat's thyroid problem. One can really gel close 10 people continued on page 19

Stop kicking around NFL fans Pre·scason games have come 10 pass as the National Football League kicked off ilS opening games this last month, and the hard-core fans are ccstatic-alread)· betting, arguing and predicting.

I think these devoted follo\loc:rs are born with some kind of secondary adrenal gland that unleashes adrenalin in astronomical proportions at the sound of, "Let's see what else is on" or " It's only a game.''

I never saw my dad move faster than when I tried 10 change the channel from NFL 10 anything, If the Olympic Games offered the Lazy-Boy to Television 4-yard relay as an official event, my dad would surely be one of the members.

FL fans are a rare breed. too often mistaken for average human beings and whose righlS are abused through many bidden forms.

During commercial breaks, for example, the fans' hearu are benched when they are sidelined

by cx-quarterbaclc.s giving a different pitchtrying to hand off some life insurance policy while ,i ev.ers are running back to the icebox for a beer and some fried pork rinds (no longer thought of as cannibalism in the football world). lf it's no1 a quarterback, it's some cx-druggedup center, halfback from an acid trip probably, LI)'ing to rationalize the price hike or increased first do\lo n payments for Ford Motors.

These fans are further left defenseless by the inevitable interference of reception followed by, "Please do not adjust your set." This forces them to huddle around the TV at some of the other guys' pads where the TV waves won't be intercepted or blocked by a neighbor's antenna that wasn't put up right.

I'm sure these abuses aren't meant with direct offense, but overtime the viewers' patience is sent spiraling away, never again to touchdown to the

john ~ jensen~ safety of a peaceful Sunday game.

I feel that these faithful football fanatics should form a committee with the goal of finally tackl· ing the problem of screening commercials for t~e game days. II would consist of viewers from d1fferent fields, off-sides of each pan of 1own, who arc willing 10 take time-out 10 complete this conversion.

A goal-line stand has to be made in defense: of these fans, N-F-L the viewers cooperate, everyone will have a ball this season.

Hardballers: Mucha talent means guillotine will fall b~ \1il..t Cart~

Baseball coach Jnck Bloxom describes this sea.son's crop of ballplayers as "an abundance or talent.'' No superstarsbut balanced 1,1, ith three-player depth at C'\'cr)' posiuon.

Bloxom 's array of ta.lent is so gre:u that he said he faces a bos1 of ~m choices at "cu1" time. or the 52 poientiaJ pla)'ers v.ho tncd out, he alrcad) has cut the squad to .:0 and anticipates paring ii down to 22 10 25 players before thc spring opening game.

Bloxom specula1cd that. ghen the crush or quality freshmen players. some rcturning leltermen may face the axe at the final cut.

Early in the fall practice season, Bio~om ideoufies his team nucleus as returning pitchers Darryl Wirsch1ng. James Anderson, Barry Gnffin, Shav.n Aaherty and Mike Moore. Ca1cher Tom Banducd and utilityman Tom McNuu also figure s1rongly among the re1uming players.

In 1he hos1 of nev. faces on the diamond, 1hrce sophomore 1ransfer students ha~e caught the coach's c>e: pi1cher Jim Winger, firsi baseman Rid. Cust and outfielder Doug V.ehrb.

Despuc coachc1' un11crsal circumspcction "hen pressed for pre-

season forcc:astS. Blo~om allov.ed tha1 1his year's squad should easilr eclipse w1 }-ear's slightl} under .500 pcrformance of 23-2.S. In 1heir imual fall ou1ing. a nineinning scrimmage with Gonzaga Unhcrs11y. the Cardinab employed tv.o full squ:ids that garnered an aggregate 15 hits in a 9-9 tie.

Ln a scrimmage al ~IC Sept 19, the Cards were leading Gonzaga Uruversity 6-3 enttring the bouom of 1he six1h inning when the pi1ching broke dov.n. plummeting the Cards 10 a 24-9 loss.

Coach Bloxom maintains lha1, despite that pitching lapse, his mound crew is pi1ching solid ball overall. He also expressed satisfoc1ion wilh the 1eam's defensive play but is concerned about their hiuing. "\\'e are hitung about 100 points lower than v.e should be," he explain, ed. "Players "ho should be hitting around .360 are only hitting .260."

According to Blo~om. 1he balance of fall pracuce season "ill be busy-four scrimmages "ith Gonz:iga. 1wo with Whitworth College and 150 innings of intrasquad play.

Blo<tom snid he an1icipa1cs six to seven more "eeks or ou1door practice before 1hc wc3ther )hu1s it down.
