Indian Students Visit During Summer Term Approximately 50 high school

students are participating in the Enrichment ·conference for In .. dian Youth. Held on the Cen. tr al campus, the conference will run from June 16 through August 16.

Most of the students attend high schools in the Yakima Val. ley area and are members of the Yakima Indian tribe.

This program will have three main purposes, according to Russell Lewis, graduate assist­ant in education. They are: to provide increased learning in the area of communications and mathematics; to give students opportunity to make updeficient high school credits; and to offer insight into college life. The students are given the oppor. tunity to attend college classes while living on the campus.

Lewis commented that nearly 70 percent of Yakima Indian students drop out of high school because many fall behind in their studies. Yet, they usually do satisfactory work unti) the

schools have been unable to suc­cessfully struggle with the iden.

tity of Indian youth. Too often teachers give up when .a student fails or does not respond to in• sfruction.

The students will attend class­es in the mornings and early afternoons. Late afternoons

· and evenings are devoted to rec-

Sacred Cows Provide Theme· For Harris Talk "Sacred Cows, Pigs, and

Theories" was the topic of Dr. Marvin Harris' speech on Tues­day evening, June 24, at Hertz Recital Hall. Harris is a Colum­bia University anthropologist and currently distinguished visiting professor at Centr,al.

The main theme for the speech was ·the relationship between values and behavior. Harris posed the problem of whether irrational values can be given a scientific explanation.

Harris began by citing a few of the "sacred cows" of the Protestant Ethic in our culture. For in stance, "Poverty is caused because people don't want to start at the bottom and work up.'' Another of our "sacred cows" is that people suffer because they don't be­lieve strongly enough that their efforts will be rewarded.

Harris applied some of our beliefs to how we view the values and actions of people in other countries.

He proposed that what we might consider irrational values concerning India's attitude to­ward cows are not necessarily anti-economical values.

There is, in fact, a shortage of . traction animals in India­animals to pull plows.

''One-third of the rural popu. lation has one or no oxen for traction use," Harris said. Hence, great care is taken to .preserve their cattle.

Another point that Harris made in reference to irrational beliefs, was . in regard to the cattle of East Africa.

East Africans lavish attention on their cattle while their peo. ple go hungry.

Studies have shown, according •o Harris ; that although there

is a taboo on their slaughter, there are exceptions. There are funerals, deaths, and cer. tain ritual occasions which cull herds at the maximum rate compatible with grazing land.

Pigs in certain parts of New Guinea are regarded as the most valuable thing in the uni. verse except man and woman. They are cared for with ten. derness and devotion.

Harris pointed out that they are the primary source of ani. mal fats and proteins in addi. tion to being an integral part of the rituals and economics of the people.

''We ought to be more cau. tious in our appraisal of values and behavior," Harris conclu. ded.

Professor Harris will give two more lectures on Wednes­day, July 9, and on Thursday, July 24. The topics will con. cern "The Role of Values and Beliefs in Underdevelopment" and "Values, Poverty, and the Nuclear Family."

Construction Of Humanities· Building Spe/.ls End To Alford And Other Office Barracks

By the fall of 1970, hopeful­ly, the new 1.3 million dol­lar Language, Literature and Philosophy Building at Central, located across walnut Street from Kennedy H~ll, will be c.om-pleted. ·

The philosophy, English and foreign language departments are presently in old or tern- . porary buildings on campus, and lack enough space for ef. ficient instruction.

The building is to be financed

mainly by State Referendum 15 funds. It will be built by. Max J. Kuney Co. of Spokane. The architect firm is Grant, Cope. land and Chervenak of Seattle.

The new H-shaped Language, Literature, and Philosophy Building was designed with a human scale in mind. Nooks are provided . off circulation areas, and pupil-faculty lounges · on the third and fourth floor will allow for various types of interaction. Sunlight wlll be

provided in all rooms with the exceptions ot. the large class. room and two seminar rooms.

Features of the buildings will included a foreign language tape laboratory containing a room for 50 student tape deck post. tions plus a console, two sound. proof recording rooms, and a work room for a technician. Also planned ts an English com. position office and clinic, with individual booths for some 25 students.

Cry Of The American Minor When is a man a man? What mystical change trans.

forms a 20 year old boy into a 21 year old man? The cry of Constitutional rights by the American Blacks

has finally been heard, and is in the process of being answered.

So why has the cry of the American minor been so flagrantly ignored?

The statement, "If you are old enough to die for your country, you are old enough to vote.", bas been over. used. But, never in the history of our nation has it been more relevant.

There is a definite need for a re-evaluation of this . illogical flaw in our gov~rnmental stru~ture.

The disenfranchisement of American youth goes tar beyond the voting-age restriction. Until age 18, the American youth is totally protected from the real world. He has no rights, but he has no responsibilities.

Upon turning 18, the semi-adult enters a hellish limbo. Still he has no rights, yet he is held responsible for all of his actions.

CONTRADICTIONS

Let us examine the contradictions of our society at a closer level. At age 18, the American male becomes eligible for the draft, and can be forced to fight for a government in which he has no voice.

The minor is restricted f!_oµi _SJ:le p~i_vilege of electing the officer who will run his nation, and yet he may be legally imprisoned or even executed for breaking society's laws.

At age 18, many of the American yout.Q are high school graduates attempting to become productive members of their culture, and yet, in our own state of Washington, they may not purchase alcoholic beverages, or decide if they should marry.

What is truly· confusing to me is that ~pon turning 21, most of our citizens forget the denials they were forced to suffer, or figure they made it through and so can thf next group.

Such a system must not be permitted to perpetr~te it. self. It is long past the time when the American citizanry should have corrected this situation.

Those of us that support movements, such as the "18. Vote" are not trying to tear down or blow up the Amert. can way of lUe. On the contrary, we are trying to change our system through the means set up by our government to permit change to occur in a legal manner.

When any system becomes so rigid that it can not accept change, ·that system has signed its own death warrant. Change is an essential part of the life process without it both man and his systems would surely perish'.

CHANGES

In a time plagued with generation gaps, communication breakdowns, and even open, violent revolution against the "establishment," it seems only logical to support any move that will help bring peace among our own people.

Giving the vote to the 18 year old is by no means the final answer. Both generations will have to strive to under. stand the other. The youth must realize that our actions and demands scare the adults.

We must give adults a little time to accept many of our mores and values which are contrary to their views~ But, while we wait and explain, the adults must try to understand and accept.

Without understanding, explaining, and patience we are all condemned to war; black against white; and young against old.

The longer we wait the tighter the lines are drawn, and the wider the gaps separating the many camps.

Inflation Strikes SUB Snack Bar Coffee Refills Soar To Ten Cents

By Jim Bodeen Staff Writer

Inflation strikes I have always taken my cof·

fee for granted. Coffee to me is a little bit of Americana. Even after Mom started buying her applie pie at the super. market, her home-brewed cof· tee continued to attest to her ab111ty in the kitchen. The myths surrounding the art of brewing ~

coffee are endless. Marriages have been ruined because a wife couldn't put the necessary magic in her brew. Marriages have been saved (so say the commercials) simply by swit• !hing brands. Traveler's stop where the trucks are stopped because trucker's know which restaurants serve the good cof· fee.

REMINISCE

forced the rise in prices. I was shown a competitive

price rePort done this Febru· ary for eight food service es· tablishments in Ellensburg. The results showed that the over-all SUB prices were 30 per cent below those included in the sur· vey. (Anyone can get a copy by asking for it in the Snack Bar.) I was somewhat molli· fled by this rePQrt. Cleveland bought me a cup of coffee and I was even more subdued. we talked for a while about the rise of prices in general. (The rent at one 196 unit apartment complex that rents to students will be up for the next school year.) Cleveland sympathized with me as a student of the "coffee faction" and I sym· pathized with him as a man who had to bear the brunt of complaints over circumstances beyond his control. · We ended our conversation amiably.

VICTORY

Russ Cleveland. I didn't come up with any magic solution, except to begin carrying a ther­mos full of coffee. · The raising of the prices in the SUB was very strategically planned. Much of the regular student body is gone for the summer. Many have graduated. Teachers back for the summer are tr an· sients without time to get in· volved. In September there will be many new students who Will never know that prices have risen. It looks like an· other economic defeat for the students. Congratulations, Eso tablishment.

Almost everyone has been cheered by the sight of the wait· ress when she comes around with that early morning second cup of coffee. Long after for· getting military discipline, ex­Gis will reminisce over the "mud" they were served in the mess hall-while drinking coffee. Students, too, should hold a special place in their hearts for coffee.

Solution To Campus Streets _ Divides College, City Officials

It is sad to contemplate a morning without coffee, yet this has probably happened to most students at one time or another. It will undoubtedly happen more often now that the SUB has raised the price of each cup to ten cents. I was quite up. set at this economic blow to my habit and went to see Russ Cleveland, director of SUBfood services. Russ is a hard guy to stay mad at.

Russ just received his Mas• ter's in hotel and restaurant management a year ago from Michigan state University. He sympathizes with students. He welcomes student interest in the Snack Bar. He stated that he was only here to work with students, and that rises in cost

Controversy over improve­ment of streets surrounding Central's cariipus may continue for some time before actual con­struction begins.

The controversy stems from discussions and disagreements between college and city offic­ials over improvement of "D" Street, 8th Ave. and Waln_ut St. have been over improvement of "D" St. from 8th to 11th Ave.

At a recent city council meet. ing U. A. Eberhart, campus planner, told the council the col­lege objected to the widening of this portion of "D" St. because of the cost involved and the col· lege's objection to making "D" St. an arterial for safety rea- · sons.

"D" STREET At tha t time the city council

When Will It End? Does this scene look familiar? In case you don't recog. nize it, this is "D" Street. At present, a controversy exists .over what to do with this street, and two other campus thoroughfares. In the mean time, watch your

revised the proposed street im­provement project on "D" St, to include only that portion be· tween 11th and 14th Avenues.

That portion of the project would be paid for .by Urban Re· newal in addition to property owners' taxes.

This proposal met opposition from the college, who after. ward recommended that that portion of "D" St. be made in. to a boulevard for safety rea­sons, and to make it more at. tractive.

· This recommendation is now bemg studied.by the city council.

At Monday night's council meeting, councilman said that it is now possible that the "D' ' St. improvement project maybe halted until next year. Con. struction had been planned to be· gin this summer.

WALNUT ' The question of what to do with

Walnut St. has not been as much of a problem •

Earlier ·this year the council told Eberhart and President James Brooks that Wa~ut St. would be closed to motor ve. hicle traffic as soon as the 14th St. project was completed. Clo. sure should occur this summer.

Present college plans for Wal· nut St. from 8th to 14th St. are to surface and landscape it for use as a pedestrian mall.

8TH AVENUE The one remaining streetpro.

ject, 8th Ave., earlier met ser. ious opposition from the college and council as well.

The main objections were to a possible increase of traffic in the college area, the loss of col. lebe property along 8th Ave. and the cutting down of. trees along

· 8th Ave., in front of Barge Hall. That proposal has been drop.

ped for the time being.

School Offers "Unique" Maior In Health Education This Fall Quarter

The first major in nealth edu. cation to be offered in wash. ington State, has been initiated at Central.

The expanded program, ac­cording to Dr. Donald Mc­Af ee, associate professor of health education, will be flexible enough to deal with special areas such as drugs, radiation and pollution, as they become im· portant.

CLASSES ADDED To_ establish a major, eleven

new courses have been added to Central's health education minor, and more have been add. ed from other areas. One ad. ditional full-time faculty mem. ber has been hired J and part. time assistance is also avail. able.

The health education program remains a part of the physical education department, but begina ning next fall, it will not be necessary for health education majors to take a physical edu. cation major.

Dr. McAfee said that, while health is one of our oldest sub­jects, it is often one of the most neglected courses in our scbools.

"Too often, health education teaching has bee~ perform~ by persons not qualified to teach it. As a result, students may learn a few facts but very little about human behavior,'' said McAfee.

Since many present courses and teachers are biologically oriented, the psychology of indi. victual behavior is not taken into account.

To cope with this problem, central's health education pro­gram must eventually provide service to people already teach. ing the subject, McAfee said.

INVOLVEMENT Respanding to nationwide stud.

ies about health, Dr. McAfee said the new health education major will stress involvement by students. Lectures will take up only a part of many courses , the remainder will be supple. mented by . field work and re. search.

In conjunction with the pro­gram, Central1s Urban Center and the Center for the Study of Migrant and Indian Educa-

tion will be utilized by the stu. dents. An arrangement has also been made with the Uni· versity of Washington to util. ize members of the U. of w. Medical School Faculty.

Noting that no other colleges in Washington, Hawaii, Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming or Nevada have extensive health education programs, Dr. Mc­Afee said tl:ine are excellent job opportunities for graduates in the field.

Not only are teachers need. ed at all levels, but many gra. duates are also needed in pub. lie health work, Dr. McAfee said.

Central Plans Summer Tours to Mt. Rainier and Lake Chelan Mt. Rainier aoo Lake Chelan

are the destinations of two col. lege-spansored summer tours planned for enrolled students, faculty, staff and dependents.

Tickets for the outings are available at the Recreation Co• ordinator's Office, 2nd floor SUB, between 9 a.m. and 4,p.m. Monday through Friday.

NAIA track meet held in Bill· ings, Mont., the weekend of June 6-7. Dick Bedlington took top individual honors by plac­ing second in the javelin with a 218'6" throw. The 440 re­lay team placed 6th with a time of 42.1. Central came away from the meet with a total of 17 team points.

Friday afternoon Central's chances didn't look good as Mike Williams took ninth place in the hanim er throw, and nei­ther Tom Lines nor Joe Evans made it past . the semi-finals in the 100 yd. dash. Both had done well to place in the semi­finals with times of : 9 .7 and : 9 .8 . respectively. In the semi-

Class Revamps SGA Due to extreme criticism from both the left and right, and a general feeling of failure on the part of many legislators, Dianne Hackney, Tim Wing, and Frank Morris designed a student initiated course to re. evaluate and reconstruct the Student Government Association at Central.

Sanctioned by the Political sci. ence department, the class is a four hour individual study under the direction of App Legg, director of student activities and union, and Glen Stockwell, instructor in political science.

Many 9f Central's most active students were invited to enroll in the course. Included in the class are ten permanent mem. bers, some of whom are SGA president, executive vice-presi. dent, and social vice-president.

The class meets regularly for two.hour discussion sessions on Tuesday and Thursday after. noons, and on Tuesday evenings.

Guest speakers, agreed upon by the class members will be occasional highlights for the course.

In addition to attending the discussions, each member is expected to do individual re. search into numerous types of student government.

After two rather noisy meet. ings the group has decided that they will attempt to construct the best government for Cen. tral, whether it ___resembles the present structure or not.

Many of the members seem to favor the creation of a sys­tem in which there is only one senate to represent the entire college, rather than maintain­ing separate senates for facul. ty, administration and students.

The general feeling of the group is that all students are part of the same system, and if that system is to function­it should . function as a whole.

The underlying problem to such a system is that it would require the suppart and cooper. ation of all three factions, stu. dents, faculty and administra. ti on.

Whatever the final product of the group's effort may be, the

findings of the class will be submitted to the student body for approval, in an early Octo. ber election.

FRANK MORRIS

The aim of this course is to research, discuss, and finally write up a proposal for a stu. dent government at Central. But, it will be only a proposal.

The class members do not intend to force an unwanted form of government upan the rest of the students.

The 3,000 meter steeple-chase proved to be a sur• prise for everybody as Terry Kelly took a third place with a time of 9 .41:0, while Sam Ring took sixth. Coach Hut. ton hadn't expected either to excell in the event, since neia ther had practiced for the com­petition previously.

Central Hosts High School Tournament The Washington Interscholas­

tic Activities Association has acknowledged Central' s inter. est in hosting the 19 70 wash. ington State AA High School Wrestling Tournament by ac. cepting Ellensburg as next sea. son's tourney site. This will be Central's fourth year as host for the crowd-drawing event, which will be held Feb. 27-28, 1970.

The tournament brings togeth· er the top grapplers from each of the state's seven regional districts, which includes all Class A and AA schools parti• cipating in interscholastic wresting, the champion Class B grapplers from their state event in Moses Lake. The victorious wrestlers emerge from sub-district and district matches previous to the state meet. Sixteen young men in each of the 12 weight divisions will then compete for the covet. ed titles of Class State Champ. ion.

In the past, the tournament has been dominated by schools from this side of the mountains; Moses Lake, and the Yakima Valley and Tri-cities areas. However, it seems that with Seattle schools now entering formal competition, and schools throughout the state enlarging their programs to the junior high and grade school levels the competition will be even more fierce.
