PC facility reveal hidden fantasies, Pranks of youth
By DARRELL BESSEY
Halloween is the time of year
that gets many people out to do
the many mean, rotten things
that have become
commonplace on this night.
As a special treat on this
occasion, we thought we’d ask
our many, hallowed faculty
members of their most
momentous and memorable
time on this night of nights
durine the fall of the vear.
Jack Estes replied that his
childhood was “very
uneventful.” He then went on to
say that he was really “too
embarrassed” to go up to the
houses so “I beat up the little
kids and took their candy.” He
added, “I also liked to go up to
the little girls and pull down
their costumes. It was fun,
really!”
Mr. Lunt reported that he
never streaked on Halloween,
mainly because “It wasn’t ‘in’
yet! Actually,” he said, “I was
a good kid on Halloween. I
never soaped a window, honest.
I never did rotten things on
Halloween. I couldn’t see doing
things to people who were
giving things out. I always
picked other nights to do those
kind of things.”
Dr. Marilyn Morgan, our
resident sociology instructor,
seems to have picked the right
field in view of her youth, but
again, she was one of the
“good” kids on the night of the
witches and goblins. She stated
that when she was little, she
was a “regular juvenile
delinquent.”
Dr. Fisch replied, “I really
didn’t do much in my younger
days like disassembling cars
and putting them in church
steeples. No, I wasn’treally into
thatsort of thing.”
Mr. Hostetler remembered a
memorable one from his college
davs:
“I was at this Halloween
party and some friends and I
decided to pull a little prank. I
dressed up in this long overcoat
and put on this plastic lifelike
face mask and a dark hat and
we went downtown. I was
supposed to be out in front and
my two buddies were going to
be following me about fifty feet
behind to keep me out of
trouble.
“Well, it turns out that one
time while I was looking in this
restaurant window, these two
men came up behind me,
grabbed me by the shoulders,
and showed me their badges. It
turned out OK though; I got a
free meal out of it!”
“The biggest thing I
remember,” mused Mr. Lucas,
“was one time when we turned
over an outhouse on its door
with a woman in it. I can still
hear herscreamsto this day.”
We also asked some members
of the faculty if they compare
themselves with famous
persons or things associated
with evil or Halloween.
Dr. Cornaby—Caligula,
a Roman emperor who was
assassinated in 41 A.D.,
described as a ‘mean, rotten
guy.”
Mr. Estes: “I’d have to say
the Cookie Monster.” An
unidentified source commented
that Richard Nixon seemed
more appropriate, although no
reason was given.
Dr. Morgan: “King Kong,
because I’ve always had this
fantasy about being really tall
and mean.”
Mr. Maloney: “I’d say Count
Dracula because of this prof I
had in college. It’s just
something thatfascinatesme.”
Mr. Lucas: “Mephistopheles
(the Devil) because he was so
mean. . .so evil. He’s really a
bad one.”
Dr. Evans: “Doc Maynard.
He was a famous person of
early Seattle. Anyone who
knows anything about him will
understand why I said him.”
Mr. Livingston: “Just
myself.”
Doctorates given to Fisch, Perry
Two Peninsula College
instructors have received their
Ph.D. degrees. They are Dr.
Sherry Ann Perry, instructor of
psychology, and Dr. Richard E.
Fisch, instructor of history.
Dr. Perry received her
psychology degree this summer
from the University of Oregon,
where she majored in human
development and learning with
a minor in clinical psychology
and biology. She said, she
is particularly interested in the
biological basis of learning.
She graduated from Texas
Tech University, where she also
did graduate work in
psychobiology under a
fellowship she received from
the National Aeronautics and
Space Administration. She
worked as a research
psychologist with the Armed
Forces Radio-biology Research
Institute in Bethesda, Md. She
also worked for the
Rehabilitation Research and
Training Center in Mental
Retardation, in Eugene, Ore.
for three years while
completing her doctoral
dissertation on the “Evaluation
of Short Term Training in
Mental Retardation.”
Dr. Perry joined the
Peninsula College faculty in
February 1974. Since then she
has been active in the American
Association of University
Women and now serves as its
education representative. She is
interested in promoting and
supporting better education at
all levels in Port Angeles and
the peninsula area. She has a
son, Tommy, 8, who is in the
fourth grade at Queen of
Angels.
Dr. Fisch received his degree
last spring, also from the
University of Oregon.
Dr. Fisch started teaching at
Peninsula College in 1961, after
receiving his master’s degree
from the University of
Washington.
After five summers of
summer school he spent a year
at the University of Oregon as
teaching assistant in an
American History class of about
300 students. He attended
seminars and wrote exams on
four different fields ofhistory.
While teaching at PC, he
wrote his dissertation on “The
Democratic Party in the State
of Washington 1854-1956.” His
paper took five years of
researching and writing. “It
was like holding down two full
time jobs,” Dr. Fisch says, but
adds that he enjoyed doing his
dissertation.
Dr. Fisch has been
Democratic party chairman for
four years, is a member of the
county Shorelines Advisory
Board, president of the
Peninsula college Faculty
Association, works with local
Cub Scouts and is a candidate
for the Port Angeles City
Council.
He and his wife, Janet, who is
a teacher at Lincoln
Elementary, have two children,
Lisa, 12, and Karl, 10.
Former PC student heads Forks paper
Lorraine Berg, who majored
in journalism at Peninsula
College lastyear, has put theory
to practice by purchasing the
Forks Forum-Peninsula
Herald, and has been editor of
that paper since the beginning
of September.
Mrs. Berg, who co-purchased
the paper with her husband,
was a full-time journalism
major here last year and says of
her education, “Anyway I could
getan education, I’ve done it.”
Mrs. Berg believes that the
basic community is the most
important aspect of the
newspaper’s coverage, so areas
of local interest will receive top
billing in the Forum-Herald.
She stated that she hopes to
keep the paper neutral in
regard to most political issues.
“We’ll try to cover both sides of
all issues,” she says. “We’ll
also try to point out some areas
in the communities served by
the Forum-Herald that need
attention.”
While not changing the basic
format of the paper, she may
make some changes in the
organization of the material as
she becomes better acquainted
with the running ofit.
Mrs. Berg and her husband
operate a shake mill at Forks.
They have two sons.
Art building home of poor acoustics
By BRUCE HANIFY
The life of an artist is usually
quiet, but in the case of
Peninsula College artists,
exactly the opposite is true. In
Peninsula art class, hard
surface walls and poor room
design are responsible for
painful sound reverberations.
According to art teachers John
Pogany and Bill Merrill, the
situation looked hopeless for
awhile but is now improving.
Many ideas are being offered
to help alleviate the problem.
One student has suggested that
large egg cartons be hung from
the ceiling, allowing the
cardboard to absorb some of the
noise. The school cafeteria is
now collecting such cartons for
this purpose.
Mr. Merrill has sent in a
request for ceiling tile, thinking
that this would also help. Dean
of Instruction Floyd Young, will
decide if this tile should be
purchased. At the moment,
though, he is waiting for results
from the “egg carton
experiment.”
“I am working with Mr.
Pogany and Mr. Merrill on this
problem,” says Mr. Young,
“and if further action is needed,
stepsto relieve it will be taken.”
Mr. Young added that the
Lecture Hall too has been
subject to poor acoustics.
Although many specialists have
been brought in, and many
ideas formulated, each addition
decreases the problem, but
neverremovesit.
It all goes to show that
acoustic construction mistakes
are hard to compensate,
especially quiet artists.
Editorial
Masterplan offers varied alternatives
At the recent meeting of the Peninsula College
Board of Trustees, the major topic of discussion was
the proposed master plan for future construction on
campus.
The board reviewed the building and construction
proposals presented by the hired architectural firm
and inquired of the feasibility of locations and the
possible alternatives to solve present situations and
imminent problems.
A most notable facet of all of the alternative
proposals was that the present parking situation will
be drastically changed. All three ideas set forth the
idea of a pedestrian mall in the area in front of the
Administration Building, including the present loop
connecting Park Avenue and Lauridsen Boulevard
and extending north to the campus boundary on
Lauridsen Boulevard.
To complement the proposed mall and the ensuing
parking problem, a new parking lot may be built
either to the east or the present handicapped lot may
be enlarged and extended to the north. This will help to
improve quick access to the campus and may also
provide more visitor and faculty parking space.
In the existing central parking lots, buildings for
art, music, journalism, photography, and other
communication skills may be erected, according to
one plan. Another dictates that a large vocational arts
building be constructed to hold auto mechanics, diesel
mechanics, engineering, electronics, welding and
other related courses. This building would cover at
least one full lot and possibly another.
To gelp alleviate the parking problem that would
arise if these proposals would be put into effect,
additional parking lots would be constructed on the
new periphery of the enlarged campus.
The periphery lots, with a common access road
from Park Avenue, would have a possible area for 600
to 700 cars and, with the already existing side lots,
would more than compensate for the loss of parking
facilities in front of the college.
Remember, the Master Plan calls for an estimated
student enrollment of 2000 FTE’s. This would be a
student body of almost double what is presently
enrolled at PC. This factor must be taken into
consideration when assessing this plan.

A look at the artists
Koetke enthralls fans at Paramount
By RUSTY FLEMMING
While the bubble gum blowers
were rocking (yawn) to Elton
John at the Seattle Coliseum
Oct. 17, folk guitarist Leo
Koetke was thrilling a sell-out
audience at the Paramont
Theater.
Koetke’s version of Tom T.
Hall’s song, “Pamela Brown,”
was well received by the
audience, and his technique on
the 12-string guitar throughout
the evening caused many a
spellbound fan to ask, “how
many fingers does he have on
each hand?” The estimate ran from 7 to 12 fingers.
Koetke, whose versatility as
a folk musician improves with
each passing year, spiced the
show with short stories and
jokes.
One anecdote dealt with his
childhood ability of flatulence
as a form of self’defense. The
story introduced an
instrumental piece, “Can’t
Quite Put It Into Words,” which
had absolutely nothing to do
with the story.
One of the brightest spots of
the evening was opening act
Leon Redbone. His honky tonk
blues voice and ragtime style of guitar left the crowd yelling for
more.
In his only interview on
record with the Rolling Stone,
Redbone explained that he was
“either 303 years old or 304,”
but birth was something he
“vaguely remembered.”
The musician, who rarely
plays anything written since the
1930’s, wore a black tux with a
matching fur hat, and puffed,
what had to be the longest cigar
in America.
These two multi-talented
performers made the people
smile, asthey haven’tsmiled in
years at the ParamontTheater.
Library Corner
By THE LIBRARY STAFF
The struggle of the American
woman to escape the pedestal
men have put her on is the
subject of best-selling author
Emily Hahn’s new book “Once
Upon A Pedestal.” From the
famed Pioneer Woman, whose
sunbonneted figure has been
immortalized in bronze (more
than life size, naturally) to such
latter-day pioneers as Betty
Friedan, Kate Millett and
Germaine Greer, this is an
informal, fascinating history of
the women who have helped to
shape the female consciousness
of today.
And a remarkable group they
are: Anne Hutchinson, whose
“unwomanly” preaching
resulted in her being banished
from the Massachusetts Bay
Colony (Governor Winthrop
blamed her husband for not
keeping her in line); Abigail
Adams, wife of the second
President, and every bit his
match; Frances Wright, whose
lectures on femine rights in the
1820’s were especially shocking
for her advocacy of birth
control (an unmarried woman
speaking on thatsubject).
Here too are the Abolitionist
sisters Sarah and Angeline
Grimke; the Civil War workers
Clara Barton and Dorothea Dix,
who proved to all that women
could do men’s work; and the
suffragists — Amelia Bloomer,
Susan B. Anthony, Lucretia
Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton
and Lucy Stone.
Victoria Woodhull, the first
woman to run for President;
Carrie Nation and her hatchet;
Jane Addams, Margaret
Sanger, and Eleanor Roosevelt
— all the great names along
with the lesser-known persons.
These are America’s women —
their lives, their works, their
personalities; what they have
thought, read, and said; and of
how they have gradually
overcome so many of the
barriers — legal, social, and
economic — to feminine
equality. It is an engrossing
story that Emily Hahn tells, and
one with a happy ending, for itis
also the story of an idea whose
time at last has come.
“Behind a new curtain of
secrecy, the U.S. Air Force is
engaged in a dangerous gamble
involving attacks on UFOs.
Despite Air Force denials,
Unidentified Flying Objects are
still operating in our skies,”
writes Major Donald E.
Keyhoe, author of “Aliens From
Space. . . The Real Story of
Unidentified Flying Objects.”
In thisstartling book, the highly
respected — and most rational
— expert on the subject
presents a wealth of new and
carefully documented
information which raises many
staggering questions about the
entire UFO controversy.
For proof of the Air Force and
CIA efforts to hide the truth
from the public, Major Keyhoe
builds a convincing case for the
existence of “flying saucers”
(there have been over 5,000
confirmed sightings in this
country alone since 1946), and
connects them with unexplained
phenomena like the Great
Blackout of 1965.
Major Keyhoe’s purpose is to
inform rather than alarm,
because he believes that any
aggressive intentions by UFOs
would have been demonstrated
by now, with devastating
results. Presenting evidence
that we on earth have been
under intermittent observation
by alien intelligence for
centuries (intensified now that
we are exploring space), he
demands that the public be
made aware of all the evidence
on record so that it can prepare
itself for the inevitable visit
from extraterrestrial beings.
TROA presents gift to the library
A framed copy of the United
States Bill of Rights has been
presented to the P.C. Library by
Lt. Col. Carlson and Capt.
Sibitzky of the OlympicChapter
of the Retired Officers
Association (TROA).
Other copies will be presented
to school assemblies in Clallam
and Jefferson countiesthis fall.
TROA believes it is especially
important for future voting
citizens to be acquainted with
this document and the precepts
itsets forth. TROA also believes
that a study and review of the
Bill of Rights is especially
important during the
Bicentennial Celebration.
“TheOlympic Chapter is very
proud of the outstanding
purposefulness of the young
adults on our peninsula and it is
with this in mind that the
framed copies are being
presented to the schools,”
Carlson said.

Students to blame for inadequacies
By J IM COX
One of the most often heard complaints on the
Peninsula campus has got to be lack of publication of
intramural due dates. People have come to me more
than a few times complaining that they “would have
signed up for intramural football, intramural
pingpong, if only they had known about the deadline.
I must admit, I am getting sick and tired of hearing
such complaints from students who don’t have enough
gumption on their own to look at the numerous posters
or to read their intramural handbook..
I have been on this campus for four quarters now,
and I have never had any problems myself in signing
up for intramural sports before the deadline. I am
starting to believe that in most of the cases of the
complaints that I hear, it is simply the desire of the
person to find someone else to blame for their
inadequacy to meet certain deadlines, rather than the
lack of sufficient publication of the intramural sport in
question.
Jon Livingston, the intramural director, is only
human, and I feel that he does more than his share to
promote intramurals on campus. After all,
intramurals is only the largest club on this campus,
and I think that much of the credit must go to
Livingston for this.
Sure, we all disagree with Jon Livingston at one
time or another on some of his intramural decisions,
but for the most part, he is fair and just, and goes
strictly by the book.
It is my suggestion to students that they stop
wasting time finding an outside source to blame, and
start getting themselves more motivated on their own
to meeting the conditions of the intramural program.
If students miss out on an intramural program, it is
my opinion they have no one to blame but themselves.
Intramural volleyball
Intramural volleyball is off to
a good start this year with a
total of six teams entered in the
league.
Intramural Director Jon
Livingston is pleased with the
turnout, although there were a
total of eight teams entered last
year.
Entered in the league this
year are: the Crazy Eights, the
Net Nuts, No. 1, the
Unaffiliated, the Double
Bubble, the Thwakkmm’s, and
the Beautiful People, who won
the title last year.
Intramural volleyball
competition started Thursday
with the “Net Nuts” meeting
the Crazy Eights, and another
match was to be played today
with No. 1 playing the
Thwakkmm’s.
Other intramural sports
approaching are basketball
(deadline is Nov. 13), and the
turkey trot (deadline Nov. 26).

Soccer team seeks members
Soccer, the national pastime
of many European and South
American countries, has been
sweeping the U.S. in recent
years and now has swept right
on to the PC campus.
The soccer team, under
captain Dave Best, has been
turning out, but is still
welcoming new players.
Anyone wishing to join the club
should do so now, as the season
will hopefully get under way in
a couple of weeks. Those
participating in soccer need to
be covered by medical and
dental insurance, which is
available through the college.
Counseling services now open to students
By LYNN WELCH
Peninsula College offers its
students a wide spectrum of
guidance counseling services,
including everything from
academic and career planning
to personal counseling and
veterans’ affairs.
Ms. Kathy Murphy, new to the
faculty this year, joins Mr. Dick
Hendry in the department. Both
are trained counselors.
Mr. Hendry explained that a
large number _Qf students
simply need some assistance in
deciding where they’re headed,
and making choices in what
they want for themselves. Much
of thisis academic related.
He stressed that different
types of tests can help students
decide on their education and
careers through individual
interest levels, aptitude, and
personality. These tests are
made available for students
through the counseling offices.
A new project this year was to
give placement testing. This is
not involved with admissions,
but helps situate the student in
the proper level of English and
math.
One of the major motives for
guided direction is to help
students decide what’s best for
them and to prepare them for a
career in the working world.
Education 110, taught by Mr.
Hendry, is a class that helps
students with this problem.
Counseling efforts have also
worked for employment
security. In the past there have
been different employment
workshops, assisting the
unemployed and the
underemployed to find suitable
jobsfor themselves.
“There have been good
results from the program, and
we hope to continue it next
year,” says Hendry.
Personal counseling often
involves a question a student
has about his education or a
career, but can range to just
about any kind of personal
problem. The main function,
Mr. Hendry says, is to help
students feel more comfortable
on campus.
Age doesn’t matter. Young
and old students alike
sometimes have difficulties
adjusting to college life.
Personal counseling doesn’t
really involve psychotherapy of
any sort, but sometimes in
order to help a particular case,
the person might be referred to
a psychoanalyst.
Another class offered besides
Education 110 for gaining
insight into the self and the
outside world is Psychology for
Living, taught by Mr. Hendry.
It deals with human relations,
and in general, coping with
existence.
Peninsula College hasn’t been
too involved with group
counseling in the past, but hopes
to get actively started with it
during winter quarter, he says.
Ms. Murphy has been trained in
this area, and she’ll probably be
working on it.
There are two further areas of
the guidance center. Mr. Phil
Adams is in charge of minority
affairs, in particular Indian and
foreign students; and veteran
affairs are headed by Mr. Bob
Willicut.
In discussion of counseling
services, Mr. Hendry
emphasized the college’s
commitment to the community.
We’re interested in whatever
the community needs are,” he
says.
The counseling services assist
students to put things into
perspective, sometimes aiding
them in seeking additional
advice from off the campus. If
someone wishes to see a
counselor, it should preferably
be by appointment, but Mr.
Hendry added that “there’s
always somebody there.”
Adult education offers oppurtunity for learning
Peninsula College instructor,
Mrs. Margaret Sinyard states
that literacy is the theme of a
special free program at
Peninsula College for adults
who haven’t had the opportunity
to receive a complete
education.
This program, Adult Basic
Education (ABE) is
government funded for anyone
18 or older, with ninth grade or
less education level.
Mrs. Sinyard teaches the
class daily from 1 to 4 p.m.
There are presently 21 students
enrolled.
Whey a person first enrolls in
the class, he or she takes a
placement test consisting of
math, reading, and spelling
problems. From then on,
students work on an individual
basis.
“All kinds of people have been
in the program,” Mrs. Sinyard
said. Some take English as a
second language. Others are
veterans or people who haven’t
completed school and would like
to learn a new trade. There are
also adults who want to learn to
read and pass the U.S.
citizenship test. Mrs. Sinyard
stated that many would like to
“catch their breath in the social
world and start over.”
Classes taught in the ABE
program include language arts,
social studies, math, science
and study skills.
There is no limit to how long
students can continue in the
program. One man stayed in for
over two years.
There is also no age limit.
Government funds provide for
anyone over 18. One man
enrolled at age 65.
After completing ABE many
students take the next step in
higher education. This course,
General Education
Development (GED) is also
government-funded and taught
by Mrs. Marsha Woll. For grade
levels from grade 10-12, GED
works on the same individual
basis as ABE. Completion of the
course offers an equivalent of a
high school diploma.
Many students take both the
ABE and GED programs then
go on through college. Others
take programmed college
classes while in the adult
courses.
The government program
also helps handicapped adults.
Two night classes are taught for
these people to learn reading,
writing and arithmetic.
Mrs. Sinyard said the adult
education progragrams are
“very effective.” She said they
provide everyone with the
opportunity to catch up in
today’s educational society.
Bicentennial course offered
Peninsula College is helping
to celebrate the bicentennial by
offering a new history class by
Dr. Fisch called “Great
Persons and Events in
American History.”
It will cover people, with their
individual contributions, aswell
as groups, with their
surrounding cultures, and their
affects on history. Why these
people are significant will be
discussed in personal and
political aspects.
At the end of the quarter, the
class will be evaluated by the
students to see if it will be added
to the regularly history classes
offered by Dr. Fisch. Dr. Fisch
will be teaching Civil War
history, which is offered spring
quarter, and a class covering
history from 1896 to the present,
offered winter quarter.
‘Something for Everybody’ planned for Nov. 7 in PUB
Everyone is invited to the
annual “Something for
Everybody” party, sponsored
by Phi Theta Nov. 7 in the
college pub.
The Oct. 21 Phi Thetameeting
discussed this party and ideas
for what it could include.
The “Something for
Everybody” party started in
1965 with the objective of
playing games and “simply
having a good time,” according
to advisor MargaretSpillane
Games of all sorts will be set
up and refreshments served.
Mr. Welch said “Everyone who
comes enjoys it.”
The college foreign students
usually come as special quests
and are introduced at the party.
Admission is 25 cents for
students and 49 cents for
couples.
There will be one more
meeting before the party for Phi
Theta members Nov. 4 at noon
in Room 5 to make final plans.
Students visit college at PC
On Monday, Oct. 20, an
estimated 300 students visited
Peninsula College as a part of
high school conferences held
throughout the state.
High school seniors from
schools around the peninsula,
were given their choice to visit
three of the 17 universities and
community colleges, state and
private, located in our area.
The conference serves as an
aid for students interested in
furthering their education and
who wish to discuss admission
to various institutions in the
area.
BOC asks awareness
The BOC meeting of Oct. 19
stressed that all students are
welcome to attend. A motion
