Curb construction work set for completion.
Completion of curbing
throughout the campus and
presentation of the preliminary
report on Peninsula’s six-year
plan were highlights of the
District 1 Board of Trustees
meeting November 15.
The board approved calling
for bids for curbing in areas
surrounding the parking lot and western and central portions on the campus plant
At present, the maintenance
staff has been completing the
curbing project in piecemeal
fashion, but Mr. Frank Thayer,
business manager, said that
costs had become prohibitive. The six year plan deals with
future aims of the college in
satisfying the educational goals
ofthe students; maintaining the
“open door” policy of the
community colleges, and
offering a comprehensive array
of occupational, cultural,
recreational and academic
programs to the district’s
citizens.
The far-reaching effects of
the plan are to develop
approaches to instruction which
will result in efficient and
effective learning, smooth
intelligent use of human and
capital resources, and of
providing an environment in
which employees committed to
the community college system
can achieve their professional
goals.
Miss Margret Holm, English
instructor, reported on her
year-long sabbatical leave
activities at the start of the meeting.
In a whirlwind tour of Europe,
Miss Holm visited a host of
museums, cathedrals and
castle ruins, and historical sites
in pursuing her favorite
discipline: English literature.
Between formal study at
Exeter College and Oxford
University, she managed to
attend a number of plays,
operas and ballet as part of her
exhaustive itinerary.
Outlining her utilization of
travel experiences since
returning, Miss Holm cited a
list of presentations she had
made to Port Angeles groups on
everything from “European
Churches” to “Prehistoric
Man.”
In assessing the value of the
leave of absence, she said, “I
am certain that the experience
will help considerably in
Shakespeare literature classes,
and clarifying many aspects of
these subjects.”
The state auditor’s report was
accepted and a summary of the
dormitory bond and interest
sinking fund reviewed.
A four-month federal
program establishing an office
for recruiting Vietnam era
veterans for training and
education was approved. The
office will have the
responsibility of contacting and
advising area veterans and
counseling them in educational
opportunities.
An update of the policy
manual revisionswas presented
board members, with final
action due at the December
meeting. The only outstanding
problem in the path of final
approval isthe insistence of the
faculty association to have a
voice in the negotiation of
administrator salaries.
President E. John Maier
noted the recent success of the
Referendum 31 bond issue, and
reviewed the building projects
slated for Peninsula. On an
optomistic note, he indicated
the forestry technician health
sciences building, and the
library and dining hall
remodeling can be expected by
September,4974.
Bill Coals and Tom Anderson
of the state Attorney General’s
office were present, and Coats
was introduced as a new
addition to the staff of legal
liason for community colleges.
For the December meeting
the board will also consider
allowing the Dean of Instruction
and Dean of Evening classes to set minimal or
reduced fees for short courses
for specialized groups;
including senior citizens, lowincome, handicapped and
retarded students.
Evans Earns PH.D from U
Jack Evans, a mathmatics
teacher here at Peninsula
completed his oral and written
dissertation at the University of
Washington on Tuesday,
November 14, to earn a Ph.D. in
higher education, culminating
three years of study and work
on his doctorate thesis.
Mr. Evans commented that
the qualifications for a Ph.D.
are personal as well as
academic. “It takes a modest
man, a man of stature and
vision; a humble man, such as
myself.”
The degree of difficulty is
acute to obtain this degree,
especially for a teacher at
Peninsula because it is so
isolated fromfacilities of higher
learning required for a
doctorate. Seattle teachers who
are working on their doctorates,
saysMr. Evans, can be on the U
of W campus in 10 minutes.
Peninsula College makes no
provision for leave of absense of
the instructor for post graduate
work of this kind and it must be
done on the instructor’s own
time.
Speaking seriously, Mr.
Evans commented,” “No one
would do it for the monetary
value of the degree, because it’s
not that much. I never once
looked forward to the
completion of the degree; I did
it because I enjoyed it. The two
years I was studying at the
University were the best of my
life.
BOC sets formal for January 12.
In an abbreviated business
meeting November 13, the BOC
set the winter formal for
Friday, January 12.
The dance will have the dual
sponsorship of WAA and the
associated students, and
committees from both groups
met in a planning session
yesterday.
Unlike last year’s event,
which featured a buffet dinner,
the January formal will feature
music only. Marianne Freeman
is serving as temporary
chairman of the planning
committee.
The fall hayride was again
postponed, perhaps indefinitely.
Vice President Ken Singhose
indicated the hayride idea
might be combined with a
bonfire-wiener roast or
Christmas caroling fest before
vacation break.
Frosh class Vice President
Sue Spillane reported on the
refreshment sales at dances.
Even with poor receipts and
trouble in manning the
concession, she stated the class
will continue to sell soft drinks
as a fund-raising prom project.
Ken also took the opportunity
to thank all students and clubs
who worked on the Referendum
31 drive the weekend preceding
the general election.
These workers distributed
literature at area stores and
shopping centers: Wade
Singhose, Chris Maier, Susie
Lynne, Kathy Tickner, Jenny
Seeker, Vicki Roudenbush,
Jack Weir, Ed Crockett,
Margaret Marsh, Paul Reed,
Michelle Foley and Vicki
Samples.
Also: Brenda Williams, Jenny
Mark Lingen, Marianne
Freeman, Julie Baker, Mollie
Sears and Dave Kochanek.
This campaign effort marked
the first real group project for
the BOC this year, and Director
of Activities Jim Lunt noted
that more involvement of this
variety is a welcome thing.
The next meeting is Monday,
November 27 at noon.
Credit for Aides
An unique experience is being
offered to Peninsula College
students winter and spring
quarters. Students may now
serve as teacher aides in local
public school classes and get
transferrable college credit for
their experience.
In the past several years
college students have worked
with small groups and
individual youngsters in a
number of local classrooms but
have not received college credit
for their work. Now credit is
available with Educ. 160
offering two credits for six
hours a week in the public
school and Educ. 165 offering
three creditsfor eight hours per
week in the school.
Requests for teacher aides
have come from Washington,
Monroe and Hamilton
Elementary schools, where
work would be with primary
children. Another request has
come from Stevens Junior High
for students to assist seventh
and ninth grade youngsters.
Work with other age and grade
levels will also be available.
Students interested should see
Mr. Laurence Welch in SS-3.
Import of youth vote stressed by Sandison
By FRANK McDOWELL
“The youth vote has indeed
made its mark on state and
national politics,” said State
Sen. Gordon Sandison at a press
conference here Wednesday,
Nov. 8.
Senator Sandison, speaking
before the Journalism 200 class,
said the fate of issues and
candidates at the polls was
noticeably affected by the
nation’s newest body of voters,
the 18 to 20-year-olds. The
senator said this was especially
true of areas surrounding
colleges and universities
Mr. Sandison attributes the
upset of power in both the house
and senate from Republicans to
Democrats partly to the new
electorates’ preference for the
Democratic party.
“Statewide,” said the senator,
“long term Republican
officeholders were beaten fairly
consistently by younger
Democratic candidates.”
Sandison, a Democrat,
believes relations between
Republican Governor Dan
Evans and the Demo-controlled
House and Senate will not be
harmed by the shift of power.
Speaking for the proposed
constitutional amendment on
sex equality, he said the intent
of the amendment was simply
that “no woman shall be denied
rights granted a man.” Mr.
Sandison believes present laws
to be archaic. He pointed out
that if this bill has passed 143
state laws would have to be
rewritten.
Initiative 261, to permit liquor
sales by licensed retailers, was
defeated largely by a fear of
many that lost revenues would
require higher taxes. This fear
was grounded on fact,
according to Mr. Sandison.
The constitutional
amendment that will allow
legislation on lotteries and
gambling, Senator Sandison
stated, “will not open up the
state to gambling.”
He said legalized gambling is
not the instant relief from taxes
it is thought to be. The senator
cited as an example the state of
Nevada, in close proximity to
the heavily populated areas of
California, yet deriving a mere
13 per cent of its state budget
from its wide-open gambling
laws. Contrary to what most
people thought, Mr. Sandison
stated that the popular bingo
games did not automatically
become legal.
Senator Sandison expressed
dismay at tactics used on all
levels of campaigning, from the
race for the presidency to local
county offices. “Each
campaign gets dirtier,” he said,
“and may eventually destroy
public faith in all office
holders.”
Mr. Sandison, the victor in his
quest for 24th district senate
seat, said he is against even
naming his opponent.
Editorial
Shots felt ’round the world
Nine years ago today, John F. Kennedy, 35th President
of the United States, was gunned down in Dallas. In the
sombre days that followed those sickening shots a
change came over this nation. .There was a tightening of
thoughts; a bitter, almost cynical emotion to the events
surrounding the murder; and a cry that the fabric of the
country had been torn and society’s moral decay
finalized.
There was also a certain indignation: the assasin could
not be brought to justice, and there was no target for all
the hate and humility that welled up inside us.
Columnist Jimmy Breslin called November 22
“everybody’s crime,” and underlined the ugly truth that
as long as there is racism and hate and smugness, men
like Oswald, Ray, Sirhan and Bremer will appear.
Tomorrow over the turkey and the talk, take just a
moment for reflection. Think to 1963 and remember.
Ponder the words justice and civil rights and human
dignity and hope that we soon will rise up and define
them.
— Rich Olson
Parenthood clinic audiences grow
Dr. Turner and a nurse from the Health Department headed a Planned Parenthood session
held in the Little Theatre on
Thursday, November 16. The
talk drew a considerably larger
audience than the class on V.D.
held November 9, which was
attended by only a few students
and a handful of teachers.
The session on contraceptives, sponsored by
the Planned Parenthood Clinic
at 903 Caroline, took up the
project as part of an extensive
citywide expansion of its
program. It is hoped that such added familiarization of the public with the clinic will increase its attendance and usage.
Possibly the greatest success
ofthe session wasthe fact that it
was attended with genuine
interest, beyond idle curiosity
as to see who else would be
there during the noonhour.
While there was some natural
embarrassment displayed due
to the private nature of the
discussed topics, there was
nevertheless the same general
atmosphere of informality and
person-to-person relationships
as was noticed in the clinic
downtown.
During his talk on basic
anatomy and the use of contraceptives, Dr.Turner passed samples of the various ^n+raceptive devices through the audience for examination.
Visual aids played an important
role in the program, as during
the bi-monthly clinic held at
the Olympic Health District
Building. He stressed the
importance of familiarization
with the problems of each
device and its specific
advantages, in addition to its
relative effectiveness and
possible side effects.
Ultimately the program was a
success, and it is hoped that it
has stimulated more interest
and knowledge of the clinic
downtown when it meets next
Monday, November 27.
CIP-Soc. 190:A chance to become involved
A unique independent study
course, allied with the
Community Involvement
Program (CIP), will be offered
in sociology winter quarter.
Sociology 190 will grant three
credits to students who
volunteer for research or offcampus work in community
activity groups such as Boy
Scouts, Girl Scouts, VISTA and
Head Start.
Under the program students
will be expected to work
approximately nine hours a
week in their selected activity.
The credits will be awarded
when 90 hours work have been
completed and a paper
describing the volunteer
activity submitted.
Mr. Jerry Spicer, sociology
instructor, indicates other
activities needing such
involvement abound
“Work with social service
groups for the elderly, mentally
retarded or the handicapped
are excellent for satisfying the
course requirements,” Mr.
Spicer said. “Several students
are already working in
convalescent homes, hospitals,
and welfare and child care
centers, and there are dozens of
other groups who need student
workers, he stated.
“The individual student’s
project is an ongoing activity,
and not limited in time to winter
quarter,” he continued. “Many
will work through the summer
to compete their project and it
is here the courses strong side
comes in. Students are not
limited to a strict, classroom
routine.”
Students interested in the
class should see Mr. Spicer or
Zeda Bjorn, student coordinator
for the CIP program at
Peninsula.
Shades of Christmas
This year, as in years past, the Christmas season
started its annual period of Yuletide greetings and
wishes of success and good luck on the 15th of
November.
Christmas is no longer a sacred holiday to many as it
has been in centuries past but has become a commercial
session of bargains and sales designed to entice the
consumer into buying everything but the Brooklyn
Bridge. Newspapers carry little filler ads telling the
reader how many more shopping days are left until
Christmas, (By the way, there are only 34 days left.) and
store front Santas are seen handing out candy canes on
every street corner.
The idea of Christmas, as many of us forget, originally
was a celebration of the birth of Christ, hailed as the
savior of mankind. The origin of the Christmas tree came
to us from medieval Germany; a small pine with candles
fastened to the branches to represent stars, and a large
candle at the very top to represent the star which guided
the Three Wise Men to the manger in which the babe was
born.
This Christmas let’s not forget the object of our wild
celebration and merrymaking. “For it is told this night in
Bethlehem a child is born . . .”
— Pete Thompson
The Motley Crew
By DAN DANIELS
Not too many students raise enough enthusiasm to get to the
Sunday evening movie offered on Campus. Many of themare yet
nursing head colds acquired on Saturday hikes through the
woodlands and hills, while others are nursing headaches which
they found on Sunday morning after their Saturday night jaunts
in the wilds.
Yet with the advent of the movie “All The Loving Couples,” on
December 3, the attendance rolls may change. In fact I expect
that the proceeds from the one movie may pay the losses for all
the rest of the movies this year — and possibly the entire film
series next year.
The advance literature listed one thing at the top of the letter;
“XXXII!”
Thissomewhat outstanding letter had just been seized upon by
the movie selection committee, when another was found among
the stacks which not only had the aforementioned hallmark at
the top, but totally lacked a printable title. When presented to
Mr. Lunt it was deemed that his choice be one or the other. He
chose the former rather than have all those requests pouring
into his office when the posters went up as to what the title is.
Besides, he wanted to be able to keep the posters on the walls of
the school without them being ripped up by Carrie Nation
vigilantes or ripped off by the student body.
The movie deals with the subject of wife-swapping, and the
declining morals of our society through the explicitly amouroqs
adventures of four swinging couples. It promises all the whys’,
whens, wheres and hows.
Obviously, it’s a vital socio-educational documentary.
And yet, I sit here remembering my high school days at
Chimacum when the health teacher was run out of town on the
only rail when she showed a series of slides of bumblebees
pollinating some honeysuckle.
From a look at the postersfor thisflick (there’s one hanging in
my living room at themoment) I can see those slides once again
and pollination going on all over the place, and I think fondly
back to my school years.
Those bees just don’t know what they’re missing.
Winter Registration underway
Registration for winter
quarter for all returning
students got underway
November 16. The same preadvising schedule that was used
last winter quarter is being used
again, but a few changes have
been made.
A list ofstudents to be advised
each week has been posted and
listributed to advisors. Priority
zased on fall appointments will
continue to be used.
The lists have been posted
around campus. Students
should sign up on an
appointment list with their
advisors any time before the
week they should register. The
instructors will pick up the
folders of the students they are
advising each day, and return
their folders to the office with
the registration form inside at
the end of the day.
Students must pay their fees
in the office on the last day of
the week they are scheduled to
be advised.
New registration forms are
being used this quarter. The
forms are less complicated than
last quarter’s, minus a lot of
unnecessary formalities. There
is one small addition, called an
item number, which will appear
before the course title, in
addition to the course number
listed after the course.
Registration pre-advising and
payment of fees are as follows:
week of Nov. 20-21, payments
due on Nov. 22; for Nov. 27-30,
payments due Dec. 1; and the
week of Dec. 4-7, payments due
on Dec. 8. This schedule
concerns all returning students.

Campus fashion:A tightening up
By SUESPILLANE
After nearly four years of
blue denim, jeans are losing
their number one popularity
position here to some dressier
pants competition.
According to local clothing
dealers, waist-high pants are
gaining on hip-huggers in sales,
moderate bells are being passed
for wide bells with cuffs, and
pallazzo pants are likely to be
this winter’s largest selling
item.
Palazzo or “palace” pants
are a versatile combination
maxi-skirt pant, waist-high and
wide at the bottom. They’re
usually made in wool or
polyester. Tailoring around the
hips helps make them suitable
to any figure.
“Of course, jeans will always
be around.” says Mary Harris,
Peoples Department Store
salesgirl and Peninsula night
student, “they’re practical, but
the palazzo pants and wide bells
offer something different.”
Although few PC coeds are
following strict fashion
guidelines, most are dressing
within current style trends.
“It’s not that fashion is so
important,” says Chris Stevens,
an art major, “but clothes
reflect your state of mind and
everybody wants to feel good.”
Alberta McBride sees Port
Angeles as behind the big cities
in readiness to adopt the new
styles. “Girls just started to
wear pants here a lot last year.”
she said.
Some girls object to the newer
styles because they think they
don’t look right on them.
But, unless you sew,
department stores are dictating
what you’ll wear simply by
stocking the new looks. They
failed to bring back the midiskirt that way, but this year
nobody is strongly fighting their
lines.
PC girls mention Peoples,
Penneys and the top floor of
Hankins as favorite clothes
sources in the city. Still, some
feel they have to go to Seattle
for clothes they will like.
“Port Angeles just has two
extremes: ultra mod or drab,”
says Mary Hudon. “In Seattle
there’s more variety and better
prices,” she feels. Chris Stevens
doesn’t agree. “I can usually
find what I like right here,” she
said.
Berit Hankins of Hankins
Fashion Center says skirts are
selling better this fall, although
“pants are still most popular.”
The full, straight-legged pants
of clipped corduroy with snug
hips and front pleat are selling
best at her store. Dresses,
especially tapered body
dresses, are also chosen more
this year. “Girls still want the
mini length skirt over the longer
international length,” she
admitted.
New fashions in all area
stores include the two-colored
short sweater, sweater vest
(often solid with a decal for
decoration), full straight-legged
pants with high waist and cuffs,
very wide bells, ruffled blouses
(and sweaters) and puffy
sleeves in all tops.
Other standard favorites are
the maxi skirt (seldom seen on
campus), rib knit sweaters, hiplength blazers, wide flares,
body suits and smocks.
Cosmopolitan magazine isn’t
showing many fashions this
year. College girls say they’re
not referring to Seventeen
Magazine for clothes ideas but
they seem to know what’s in it.
“Some of the things you see in
there nobody would ever really
wear,” says Mary.
Red nail polish, red lipstick,
purple eyeshadow and knickers
were some of the things seen in
Seventeen that these girls said
they wouldn’t touch. Knitted
beret hats, also a Seventeen
emphasis, were not as strongly
rejected.
One reason for the present lull
in jeans sales may be the
greater variety of colors
available in wide-flare dress
pants. This season plaids, light
and dark, are the most popular
print in pants and blazers. Beryl
Lewis of Adel’s remarks that
beige, burgundy and grey have
outsold navy blue in that store’s
pants selection.
“We’ll have pastel colors for
winter and the holidays,” says
Gladys Christianson of J.C.
Penney Co.
An important factor in this
season’s fashion news is “the
layered look.” Its basic
ingredients are a long sleeve,
pointed collar blouse or sweater
under a sweater vest topped
with a blazer. The look is
popular, but since the
combination is bulky, mock
lavered-look tops have taken
over under the blazer, or
without it.
Peninsula coeds are just
starting to put aside their jeans
for these interesting new looks,
most noticeably at the dances.
According to the laws offashion
that means that if everyone is
wearing dress pants, the person
who wearsjeans willsoon be out
of style. It would happen this
winter.
Fisheries project in deep jeopardy
The fish eggs that were
expected to hatch two weeks
ago have now reached the 54th
day of gestation, but only a few
hundred have been observed
completely hatched.
Mr. Mausalf, head of the
fisheries department, and
pioneer of the controlled
temperature pink salmon
hatching, speculated Thursday
as to when the eggs would
hatch: “They should have been
out after the 36th day according
to our calculations. They are
now approaching the 50th day,
and still nothing has
happened.”
The eggs were observed to
have hardened skins, keeping
the small embryo from
escaping. Mr. Mausolf feels
there may be something
biologically wrong with the
area, as it is much further south
than pink salmon spawning
grounds which are found in the
natural habitat. One
assumption is that the water is
too warm, causing the egg skins
to harden.
Several eggs were dissected
by fisheries students to try and
determine the cause of the late
hatch. The fish were found to
have consumed the yoke sak,
which is what the young fish live
on for the first hours after they
have hatched. The eyes of the
fish, which normally are black
until hatched, have turned the
characteristic silver, confirming the worst fear of the
department, a late hatch.
Mr. Mausolf hopes for 10,000
to 15,000 eggs to survive and
produce healthy fry, out of the
130,000 with which the
experiment started. The
Bureau of Commercial
Fisheries has promised 10,000
fish that have already been
hatched in their Manchester
fisheries station, west of
Seattle, that are also offspring
of the even year pink salmon
run.
These fish, with the expected
10,000 or more that have been
hatched by the Fisheries
department at Peninsula, will
be enough to carry on the
experiment and try to establish
an even year run on the
Olympic Peninsula.
Course credit for campaign work
A revolutionary idea to
involve students politically has
been proposed by Mark
Wallbom, student body
president at Bellevue
Community College.
Briefly, Mark’s plan would be
to offer college credit for
student campaign work on the
county state, or national level.
With a prerequisite of a
course in political science,
students would be free to choose
a candidate or organization of
any party, and report on their
work within the campaign
structure.
Mark believes that such a
course would further the
student’s understanding of
campaign and election
processes, varied political
theories, and development of an
appreciation of the American
political system.
CSC hopes to feature Shakespeare Company
The Community Services
Committee has approved the
appearance of the New
Shakespeare Company from
California for a performance
sometime in mid-February.
This was the main issue
discussed at the last meeting
held Nov. 14.
The meeting began with an
announcement by Dr. Wener
Quast concerning the seminar
on court reform held on Nov. 16.
Peninsula co-sponsored the
regional conference.
The main issue discussed was
the possibility of inviting the
new Shakespeare Company
from California to present
“Midsummer Nights’ Dream”
or “As You Like It.” Members
of the faculty felt that the
appearance of the company
would be worthwhile. The only
problem that came up was the
cost. One performance by the
company would cost $900,
including accommodations for
the 26-member troupe.
Mr. Brauninger made a
motion to have the troupe come
and give two performances in
the form of a festival. Miss
Holm seconded the motion, with
the play to take place on a
Friday and Saturday. Mr. Lunt
stated that if there was a
festival, the cost of the
performance would almost
double, so the possibility of
getting the company for two
performances was slim.
The Community Services
Committee has a budget of
$1500, which wouldn’t cover the
extra expenses of a second
performance. It was suggested
that the committee go to the
BOC for funds, but Mr. Lunt
said the BOC had enough debts
of its own to pay off.
Mr. Pollard suggested a
single performance would be a
better idea. He felt that with a
single performance the
attendance would increase. By
reserving the Port Angeles High
School auditorium and the Little
Theater, the committee could
choose one or the other in case
the audience turn out wasn’t
what was expected.
Campus Sport scene
By ROB MAY AND DOUG HOCKENBURY
Black belt judo instructor
forecasts good year
At the young age of eight years, Cal Hayashi began his judo
career at Seikikan Dojo in Spokane. Cal credits his mother for
getting him started and keeping him going, in fact “she forced
me to go,” he said.
Yet, at one time he didn’t even care for judo at all, in fact
skipped classes until at the age of 14 a girl friend came into the
picture and he wanted to show her how good he was at his sport.
He inspired himself and worked as he had never before until at
17 he won a first degree black belt and two years later earned a
second degree black belt. Thatmeanstwo down and one to go for
Cal as the third degree black belt is as high as a participant of
judo can go.
When asked how he obtained his two black belts he said it took
a certain amount of wins and competition in two national
tournaments. Cal is one of two of the youngest people ever to
gain a black belt in the Pacific Northwest at age 17.
After graduation from Lewis and Clark High School in
Spokane, Cal came to Peninsula College simply because he liked
the area and was interested in the fisheries program. This
probably was due in part to his hobbies of steelheading, scuba
diving and hunting.
At the time Cal enrolled at Peninsula College, Mr. Livingston
was teaching judo classes, so they put their heads together to
form the Peninsula College Judo Club in 1971. With Cal as
president and Mr. Livingston the advisor of the club, Cal stated
that Mr. Livingston has helped him a lot by showing him how to
teach his sport. Asked how much time he puts into teaching
judo, he replied 15 hours a week with self defense and judo
classes, and all 15 hours are volunteered!
I asked why he does this volunteer work for no money and his
answer was “It’s part of my life.” He wants to see some of his
studentssomeday get a black belt; thisis histeaching goal.
Cal told me that judo is a sport derived from juijitsu, a form of
self defense. From judo you learn many things, among them
body coordination, muscle building, physical fitness and
sensory perception or a building of the mind.
With this year’s club, Cal is optimistic and says that this looks
like the best year ever. He stated thatsome of his students with
only one year of experience are beating people with up to five or
six years experience. He says he is hoping and is trying to be
optimistic about the nationals but this early in the season it’s
hard to say or even predict.
For those interested in Judo Club or who would like to watch
what goes on to understand the sport better, the club meets
every Monday and Thursday at the YMCA from 8 to 9:30 p.m.
and on Tuesdays atthe college gym from6 to 8 p.m.

WAA volleyball team going for best season ever
Women’s Athletic
Association started this year’s
volleyball season with two wins
and then fell to their first defeat
at the WWSC volleyball
tournament on November 11.
The team started the season
by overpowering Olympic
College in a match here October
18.
The next match at UPS on
November 3 brought forth the
real enthusiasm and spirit of
the team. The win over UPS
was a moral victory as well, for
UPS had beaten WSU’s team in
an earlier match of the season.
The next stop was WWSC in
Bellingham, where Peninsula
gained two victories over Green
River but lost to Western,
Olympic, Shoreline, Bellingham
YMCA and the UW. This gave
Peninsula a sixth place in the
tournament, with Bellingham
YMCA and Shoreline taking
first and second.
This year’s team consists of
returning sophomores Vicki
Duncan, MargaretMarsh, Vicki
Roudebush, Jenny Seeker and
Mary Stook, and new freshmen
Brenda Williams, Joan Hebert,
Vicky Samples, Denise Parrish,
Sharon Bravo and Chris Mair’.
The upcoming schedule
showed a meet with Green
River here on November 18 and
on November 25 Peninsula
travels to Olympic for a 4 p.m.
match. Wins over these two
teams will give the Peninsula
WAA volleyball team its best
season in many years.
The next sport coming up for
WAA is basketball, which will
begin in the winter quarter.
Four games are already
arranged for the start of the
season.
Pirates ready for opener
By ROB MAY
November 24 will see the
Pirate’s basketball team go into
action against a very tall
Bellevue team. The game will
be the second of the evening in
the Bellevue Tip-Off
Tournament,slated to begin at 9
p.m.
Mr. Huston was impossible to
catch this week, so I directed
my line of fire towards Tom
Kingshott, 6-2 freshman guard
from Everet*, who is a
contender for one of the starting
guard positions on the team.
Tom seemed confident about
the team’s chances, during the
tournament, and throughout the
season. When asked how the
Pirates would do in the league,
he stated that “not knowing
what other teams have and
knowing what we have, we feel
we can do real well.”
He said the interest is still
there after a long practice
period of over a month, and the
team is ready and anxious for
the season to start.
The team still hasn’t decided
upon a starting unit thusfar, but
seven or eight players are still
in the running. Paul Stroeder
lookslike he has the pivot nailed
down, Dennis Jasmer and Tom
Leavitt are working well at the
forward slots. Bob Coma will
lead the team’s offense, but the
fifth man is still undecided. Jim
Clem, Tom Dosey, Larry
Sharrett and Kingshott all have
excellent chances at finding a
spot on the starting five.
peninsula will be without the
services of 6-1 guard Bill
Schwanbeck during the
tournament, as he was forced
out of practice the past week
with a questionable disease. Bill
will definitely be a contender
for the first unit when he is at
full strength.
Coppin tops field in grid preditions
Ed Coppin of Room 11 in the
dorm missed on only two of the
11 games to win this week’s
Buccaneer football prediction
contest.
Ed correctly predicted the
Cougars to top the Huskies, but
missed on California’s upset
over Stanford and San Diego’s
victory over the Kansas City
Chiefs.
A total of 55 entries was
received this week, more than
double the number turned in
two weeks ago, as the contest
seems to be picking up
popularity on campus. Twenty
of those 52 missed only three
games, so the competition was
stiff.
Coppin can pick up two free
ticketsto an upcoming dance or
tickets to one of the Sunday
evening movies held on
campus.
Second place: Bill
Schwanbeck, Kathy Seibert and
Julie Coloin (tied).
Third place: Dennis Jasmer.
There’s still one more chance
to try your football predicting
skills. The Buccaneer invites
everyone on campus to have a
go at guessing the outcome of
these games.
