The Buccaneer May 16, 1980.

ASB officers elected:Young, Fairchild, Diagram

Two hundred and one of
the approximately 900 daystudents at Peninsula have
cast ballots, and Matt Young
is student body president for
1980-81.
Dave Fairchild was elected
vice president May 9, and
Ken Dignam secretarytreasurer.
Young is elated about his
new position as ASC president. “It’s quite an honor,’’
he commented, “and up and

down—it’s going to be a lot
of work and a lot of fun.’’
Young said he was
“reasonably confident”
about the election and his
ideas were “unsurpassed.,
Some of the new president’s
ideas include the establishment of a “health service’’
for the dormitory, a partial
tuition break for the Buccaneer staff and an additional night of open gym.

Fairchild, vice president,
said though he had changed
his mind about running for
the office (he had been
urging voters to vote a writein candidate), he will “put as
much time in as I can and
still do well in school.’’
Fairchild believes that on
the campus, “There are a
few who try to do things for
a lot of people.’’ He said he
will, try to change that
because, he said, the school

does not have enough “pep’,’
and it’s “dead around here.’’
Fairchild said that he will
do his best in the office of
vice president. “I will not do
a shittv iob,” he declared.
Ken Dignam, secretarytreasurer, is enthusiastic
about the post. “I really
wanted to get involved (in
student government) again,”
he said. “I hate being idle.”
Dignam was senior class
president in Port Angeles

until he hung up his political
guns for a year. Now he said
he’s ready to tackle the
responsibility again.
“I really look forward to . working with Fairchild
again. (Fairchild was ASB
president when Dignam
represented PAHS class). “I
don’t know Matt too well
yet, but I’m sure we’ll all
work together well,” the
1980-81 secretary-treasurer
said.

Dorm damaged again

Dorm Manager Vince
Murray is displeased. Recent
vandalism in the dorm and
coverage of that vandalism is
“giving the dorm a bad
name.”
“People are getting the idea
that all the dormies are like
that.” Apparently, he is not
the only one who feels that
way.
Dorm inhabitants also
expressed displeasure (with
the vandals’ destruction) in
the past few weeks.
Said one dormie, “(these
people) are giving the dorm a
bad name.”
Another feels that “It is
unfair for the dormies who
take no part in the doings of
a few should be blamed or
looked down upon simply
because they happen to live
where the action is.”
Many dorm residents view
the vandalism as “childish.”
However, there is another,
more serious, side to the
matter.
One student declared,
“It’s kind of scary. Maybe
they’ll (the “vandals”) go on
to ‘bigger and better
things.* ”
The latest incident of dorm
vandalism occurred last

Saturday when a couch from
the dorm lounge was burned,
either accidently or purposelyThe incident is still under
investigation.
Also, there is resentment
over the fact that unless the
person or persons responsible are caught, all dorm
students will be required to
pay for damages with the $40
requried damage fee.
Said one student, “If I’m
paying $40 for someone
kicking holes-in the wall and
flooding halls there’s something sad going on.”
Other comments ranged
from “I’m ticked off” to “If
it has to be paid, it has to be
paid.” As one dormie put it,
“How else are they going to
pay for it?”
Although all the students
interviewed felt “something
should be done,” solutions
suggested were few.
One dormie felt it would
help if dorm manager
Murray could meet with
dorm students and explain
the consequences of dorm
vandalism.
Another felt the best way
to prevent damage is to catch
the vandal “in the act.”

However the situation is to
be resolved, if dorm students
are to “save face,” hang on
to their $40, and live in a safe
and comfortable atmosphere, a solution must be
found soon.

Construction

Since April 1 the Del Guzzi
Construction Company has
been working on the new
industrial electronics building behind the dormitory.
The company will also build
facilities for the handicapped
in campus restrooms.
Total cost of the project is
estimated at $500,000, said
DelGuzzi Superintendent
Merle Miller. This also
includes labor costs.
Miller said construction is
expected to be completed
January 1981.
In other campus construction this summer, the
DelGuzzi company will
change classroom door
thresholds for easier crossing
by the handicapped.
Miller said he would
appreciate people not parking their cars in the construction area.

Low interest in Springfest

By LINDA RHODES
and
DARLA SWEM
The third annual Springfest was celebrated last week
with kite flying, movies,
dancing, poetry and other
entertainment including an
open mike for aspiring performers.
With the exception of
noon activities, Springfest
was not well attended, said
Steve Shirley, Student
Council President.
“I’m disappointed that we
did not get the promotion we
needed from the Buccaneer
for the money events,” said
Shirley. “For instance, we
put out $450 for the
hypnotist and only 51 tickets
sold at a buck apiece.”
English teacher Jack Estes
was also disappointed at the
turnout.
“Springfest was not as
successful as in past years,”
said Estes. “Perhaps the
conflict with ASB elections
contributed to this.”
Springfest was started two
years ago by Estes. Estes said
the Festival gave him an
excuse to get more poetry

and films to the public. He
said he also felt it was a good
way to celebrate spring with
new poets.
The first year of Springfest
was celebrated on a weekend
with a Friday night dance
and events -all day on
Saturday.
“I think a day long
celebration wore people out,
so last year we changed to a
week long Springfest,” said
Estes.
Over $2,000 was spent
with $425 used for free
noontime events.
“Onlyttwo people showed
up for the kite flying contest
and the open mike attracted
only a handful of musicians
who had a jam session,” said
Shirley. “I’m at a loss to
know what more I could
have done to increase
interest.”
Estes said he wanted
Springfest to maintain a
celebrative quality with
dancing and singing, but he
felt this year’s festival lacked
enthusiasm among the
public.

Editorial: Controversy not over

Peninsula College’s continuing education director and
speech teacher after a four-month controversy.
The judge’s May 5 ruling, though, does not conclude the
Hostetler case or the issues it has led to. Moffett’s decision
also has not halted growing tensions between faculty and
administration. With luck PC will survive the conflict between the two
sides and come through this controversy in one piece.
The Buccaneer urges both the faculty and administration to
reason and think rationally in this emotional case. The worst
thing for either side would be to let emotions take control.
It’s important both sides talk and listen to each other.
It’s understandable that the Hostetler case is a touchy one.
Faculty and administration appear to feel threatened by each
other, to a point. Faculty see Hostetler’s firing as a threat to
tenure and a harassment of a colleague. Administrators see
the case as a challenge to their right to fire an employee and
to say whether the employee had tenure.
Faculty members and administrators are probably, for the
most part, still friends but unfortunately a professional wall
has been built between the two sides by a lack of communication and understanding.
Walls like that don’t come down quickly or easily.
Fortunately, both sides seem to have restrained publically
their emotions. However, Jack Estes, chairman of a faculty grievance committee backing Hostetler, called the faculty’s current union organizing ” a direct outgrowth” of the Hostetler case. Most faculty members would probably agree. Meanwhile inspite of Moffett’s ruling, the college administration had not called Hostetler back to work. The administrator-teacher said last week neither he nor his attorney have been contacted by college president Paul Cornoby or the college’s lawyer. Cornaby said he is waiting for the judge’s written decision. Once that opinion comes, there will be no delay in calling Hostetler back to work.
The Buccaneer wont take sides in the Hostetler case. Whatever happens, hopefully a major faculty -versus administration confrontation wont break out. Differences can be worked out in a mature, rational way. One problem this college can do without is deep resentment or a long fight between the administration and faculty. When such resentment persists, victims are the faculty members, the administrators, and the students.

Festival is for Fun

Participation in last week’s Springfest night events was
low. Although noon events led to a packed PUB, only a
handful came for most night entertainment.
The low turnout, though, did not make the festival less of a
success.
Springfest’s purpose, after all, is not to make a profit or
break a record for participation. It was started with the idea
of entertaining Peninsula College and the community. The
1980 festival did just that, with a variety of outstanding
talent.

Even when participation was low, participants still had
fun. Springfest helped people to forget the pressure of
college work or job. The festival was one way to just plain
enjoy life.

If ten people took part in Springfest-and if those ten found the week worthwhile-the festival would still have been a success.

It’s too bad that some of the Springfest events didn’t get
the audience they deserved. But inspite of the turnout, the
festival was one college students and staff can be proud of.

Letters from readers: Poetry corner?

Editor, the Buccaneer:
Because there will be no
Tidepools this year, I would
like to suggest the Buccaneer
make an effort to fill the gap
by an addition of a poetry
corner. A few poems could
be published each issue to
give student writers some
chance to see their work in
print. 1 can see no reason for
any objections to such an
addition, and you would be
doing a great service for
those whose work might have
been published in Tidepools.

Lest we forget, Tidepools
was the college literary
magazine. Originated about
ten years ago by an English
instructor, Miss Marjorie
Avalon (now retired) as a
replacement* for the Peninsula College yearbook, which
had become obsolete, the
magazine became a showcase

for student talent and was
exchanged with other
colleges all over the United
States. Those of us who had
the honor of working on the
Tidepools hope to see it
reinstated next year, but until
then we look to- the
Buccaneer . .. how about it?
-Betti Mundy

A poetry corner would be
a fantastic addition to the
editorial page The Buccaneer, though, lacks the
space to print poems on any
page. Four pages aren’t
enough to publish all the
articles written by our
reporters. Thanks for the
idea anyway. —Editor

New political club

Editor, the Buccaneer:
For 44 of the past 48 years,
our Congress has been
controlled by the Democratic
Party. The problems our
nation now faces are for the
most part made by them (the
Democrats).
We need a two party
system in order to make this
country work properly; join
the Packiderm Club and get
involved. Call Steve
Schneider at 452-8609 after 5
p.m. for information.
We need everybody with
ideas from liberal to
conservative.
-Steve Schneider

Review of the arts:Followers main cult ingredient

By MARK PHILLIPS
Cult television programs
are rarely studied in colleges
because of confusion as to
what makes a cult classic.
Among current series, NBC’s
Saturday Night Live has
what you would call a
transitory cull following.
When John Belushi left the
show in 1979, he took most
of the cult with him. Now
dependent on off the wall
gimmicks and skits, Saturday
Night Live is barely holding
on to its once loyal collegeaged viewers.
When Saturday Night Live
eventually gets cancelled,
there will be no reruns (ala
Laugh-ln) and no following.
That’s the price of sudden
popularity. It comes as fast
as it goes. On a happier note,
bizarre and risque British
imports like Benny Hill and
Fawcett Towers are followed
religiously more for their
comet than for personalities

Twilight Zone, Rod
Serling’s dramatic
anthology, is one of the
hardiest. Written with crisp
imagination, the 1959
television program explored
morality in such segments as
a land where people look
alike or where the elderly
must justify their existence or
die.
Although dated and filled
with many inconsequential
time-wasters, Twilight Zone
has built a fantastic cult
acrossthe nation.
Meanwhile, a cult
surrounds Voyage to the
Bottom of the Sea, a show
that lingered on plants eating
newlyweds or giant jellyfish
sinking ocean liners.
An underwater version of

Star Trek, Voyage to the
Bottom of the Sea intentionally tarnished its image
by becoming a monster
parade to gain ratings.
The last notable cult show
aired in the area is Kung Fults cult status was more widespread during its original
three year run. The lure for
devotees was a pacifistic hero
and the deadly oriental art of
kung fults cult status was more widespread during its original three year run. The lure for devotees was a pacifistic hero and the deadly oriental art of kung fu.
Even today the show is followed by lotal core of follwers, and thats what cults are all about in film or television. They’re generations of people who see the same qualities and magic in film. Plain followings just die, but film cults live on.

Cave man play

The Peninsula College
drama department, led by
Jim Lunt, will present “The
Boy Who Changed The
World” May 15, 16, and
17.
The play is about a prehistoric boy who is having a
hard time with his three
c’s—climbing, clobbering
and clubbing. The boy,
unlike his peers, is more
interested in picking flowers
and naming them.
The cave people’s community does not know what
it will do with a boy who
cannot support himself. The
boy knows he will succeed in
something, but he is not sure
what it will be.
A girl backs up and loves

the boy, but the boy doesn’t
like her in the play.
Director Lunt called the
play a children’s play for
adults.
Robert Carter will play
John The Strong; Jeanne
Rogers, Agatha; Phil Hopfner, Paul The Professor;
Alice Churchley, Mozelle;
Pam Jefferson, Irma; Cindy
Smith, Genevive; and Paul
Newgard, Scarface.
Playing George, the boy
who changed the world, will
be Ken Dignam; Bill Field,
Bear; Linda Baumwell,
Dorthy; Andrea Minor,
Ruth; Dave Bialik, Irving;
Steve Garrett, Ralph The
Runner; and Ron Swickley,
Spear.

Budget discussed

a senes ot meetings that
began five weeks ago will
determine the 1980-81
Peninsula College budget,
said Dean of Students Art
Feiro.
Advisors and students met
to decide whether 1979-80
funds were used successfully
after which a meeting was
held to introduce new ASB
officers to the financial

structure.
Funds may be shifted to
meet relvant student needs.
“We would like to see more
intramural sports and less
varsity,” said ASB president
Steve Shirley. “More open
gym and outside basketball
hoops are another possibility.”
The meetings will be
concluded next week.

Cult film seen

The Peninsula College cult
film series continues Tuesday, May 20 at 7 p.m. in the
Little Theater with The
Loved One.
The film’s cast includes
Robert Morse and Rod
Steiger in a satirical attack on
love, death, sex and much
more. The film is rated PG.

Showing with The Loved
One are clips of cult hero
Elvis Presley on the Ed
Sullivan Show in the midfifties.
May 27 the film series
offers The Ruling Class, a
1972 film starring Peter
O’Toole who thinks he’s
Jesus Christ. It’s rated PG.

Poet reads

Howard M. Tomlinson,
who lived in Alaska for 25
years, will be the next reader
in the Foothills Poetry series
at noon Tuesday, May 20, in
the Little Theater.
Tomlinson will read from
his books of poetry and This
Was Alaska narratives based

on his experiences.
An evaluating committee
from the Pacific Northwest
Writers’ Conference
described Tomlinson’s writing as “Good lusty poems
with a fine swing and
rhythm, the kind Americans
love.”

Re-entry program:Extra help for returning students

By LINDA RHODES
“What shall I be when the
children grow up?” is one
question being asked by
students returning to school
after several years absence.
Displaced homemakers,
out-of-work parents and
retirees are among returning
students finding the answers
to mutual problems through
the Peninsula College ReEntry Program, said Diane

Johnson, co-instructor of the
new Re-Entry and Career
Awareness class.
“Unlike recent high
school graduates,” says
Johnson, “many returning
students need catching up in
basic study, English and
math skills.”
A winter quarter evaluation showed that these
students also need more
career search information
prompted Johnson and

counselor Kathy Murphy to
offer a course to fill these
needs.
In addition to campus and
course orientation and
vocational testing, the class
offers information and tools
to deal with the stress of a
radically altered life. Most
class members have families
and are still responsible for
their children’s welfare and
management of their homes.
Careful scheduling is advised

since overloading on credits.
is a common mistake.
Since a large percentage of
returning students are
women, much of Johnson’s
work deals with problems
particular to sex-role stereotyping and assertive training.
According to Johnson, ReEntry programs exist in most
colleges. Their success is
shown in the fact that
returning students, usually
identified as over age twenty
five, have the highest grade

point average than any other
group.
The “Bunch for Lunch”
group that meets on
Wednesday is to be extended
to a two hour “Bunch for
Brunch,” said Johnson. The
new hours will be from 10:30
a.m. to 12:30 p.m. so that
more students can attend the
supportive social group.
For more information or
individual counseling, see
Johnson in Administration
or Murphy in Student
Services.

Floating throne for royalty

By LINDA RHODES
They floated down the street propelled by unseen wheels … a fairy land scene . . .
waving, smiling, greeting theirsubjects.
Queen Terri Davison and her princesses, Sharon Gilleland and Lisa Knight, were
literally “put on a pedestal,’’ a moving pedestal, as they represented Port Angeles in
Sequim’s Irrigation Festival Parade last Saturday and won the Mayor’s Trophy.
The three Peninsula College students are caught up in a whirlwind of activity—a
whirlwind that will culminate at the end of this year’s fairs and festivals with the Port
Angeles Derby Days Festival Labor Day weekend.
Terry, Sharon, and Lisa will reign over a full week of activities that include a Grand
Parade, a Kiddies Parade, several breakfasts and luncheons and a fishing derby.
Meanwhile, they will be traveling throughout the Northwest taking part in such
festivities as the Forks Fourth of July, Seattle Seafair, and The Clallam County Fair
promoting PA’s Derby Days and selling buttons.
The queen and her princesses are thrilled with the honor and the part they will play as
royalty.
“I am infinitely more proud of my community as its representative,” said Queen
Terri. “I’m also meeting a lot ofspecial people.”
Princess Sharon enjoys meeting new people too.
“Strangers recognize me and walk up to say ‘Hi!’ ” said the princess. “They put me
on a pedestal, but I’m still the same person.”
Princess Lisa was inspired to enter the contest as a result of her speech class. “I did it
for the experience,” said Lisa. “It’s an exciting, unique opportunity.”
Port Angeles High School graduates, the girls have known each other for years but
have become extra close in recent weeks as they shopped for the new outfits and
attended promotional luncheons and festivities. “A certain camaraderie develops
between the participants,” said Terri. Loyal subjects may view the queen and her court this weekend when they will
increase their fame and PA’s fortune once again as their fairyland coach floats through
the streets of Port Townsend and the Rhododendron Festival.

Springfest of ’80

Last week Peninsula College students flew kites,
went under hypnosis, danced to The Cowboys, and
listened to bluegrass, folk, and jazz music.
They also heard poets Nelson Bentley and William
Pitt Roots read their work. Last Friday PC students
laughed loudly at Seattle comedian Dave Parsons’
impersonations of celebrities like Jimmy Stewart and
Walter Cronkite.
This entertainment was all part of Springfest.
PC’s annual arts festival began May 5 with a packed
with a PUB listening to “The Threshing Floor,” a bluegrass
band. Poor wind, meanwhile, didn’t stop some from
flying their kites in the college plaza.
That night 13 students had some unusual experiences on the Little Theater stage. But it was all in
their subconscience. They were under the spell of
Seattle hypnotist Dave Arnett.
Tuesday students listened to Bentley’s poems and
saw the film “Easy Rider.”
Steve and Maureen entertained a packed PUB
Wednesday with folk tunes. That night musicians and
others got together for an open mike jam session.
Thursday William Pitt Roots introduced a PC
audience to his work. The films “The Graduate” and
“The Carnal Knowledge” were introduced or reintroduced that night.
The PC jazz ensemble played Friday. Springfest
came to a close Friday night with the election dance.
At 1:30 a.m. Saturday the festival came to a close.
Another Springfest had gone by.

Golfers finish rough season

PC varsity golfer Steve Wasnock warms up for his final meet this year. This season wasn’t
very good to the Pirate golf squad who played nine matches and lost them all. Five of these
matches were painfully close, some were within a few strokes. The top golfers this year
were Paul Woolpert, Mike Lux and Roy Wark. Steve Wasnock was close behind, though
troubled with injuries this season. Golf coach Tim Fryer described rookie golfer Mark
Anderson as much improved. Fryer will be back next year as golf and basketball coach if PC
decides to continue varsity sports, —photos by Tim Chamberlain

Controversy over gym use solved

A recent gym use controversy rose between a group
of students and faculty
members who all like to play
basketball al lunchtime.
Apparently a group of
students were “kicked out’’
of the gymnasium twice last
week by certain faculty
members who claimed
priority over the only available basketball court. Intramural activities took up the
other half court so the
students had nowhere else to
play. Since they had been
there first, the students felt
that they had the right to the
floor.
“We’re paying the faculty
to come in and play basketball,’’ charged one student
rather indignantly. “It kind
of leaves us outside,” said
another.
Athletic director Art Feiro
said he sent a letter to faculty
members saying that they
could use a part of the floor
at noon, but the intent of the
letter was not to exclude
students. Feiro suggested
that students and faculty
play basketball together like

they have so many times in
the past.
“In my judgment the gym
load would be so low (in the
spring quarter) that there
would be no problem,’’ Feiro
said. He apologized for his
mistake.
A group of teachers and
students met Friday, May 9
with Feiro to discuss the
problem, and they agreed on
a schedule for gym floor use.
The first week the schedule is
in effect, the faculty will
have the right to the floor for
the first half of the noon
hour and students will have
the right to the floor the
second half of the noon
hour. The second week of the
schedule, the students will go
first and the faculty will have
the floor at 12:30.
Usually there is enough
floor space for whoever
wants to play basketball in
the gym, so the schedule will
only go into effect when the
question of gym floor
priority is raised. The
schedule will be posted in the
gym.

PC to state

The Peninsula College
Tennis team was a success at
Regionals with four out of
the seven girls qualifying for
the state tournament.
The tournament was held
in Lower Columbia with the
use of their high school
courts, park courts, and
indoor courts which were a
new experience for many of
the players.
Qualifying for state was
Cheryl Shaw with second
place.in her number two
division; Tomi Charawell,
first place in the number five
position and third place
along with Joy Stewart in the
number three doubles team,
and Karen Hopkins with a
second place in the number
six position.
State tournament will be
held in Pasco, beginning
May 14 with finals on May 17. The PC team will be

playing in the Coastal
League and playing against
girls from the Seattle and
Eastern leagues also.
Asked how she felt about
going to state, Karen
Hopkins said, “Aw,
terrific,” and “I’ll have to
play my best game ever.”
“Even if I lose, it’s a great
experience to go to state.”
Hopkins is looking
forward to state because she
missed going by one match
last year.
This will be Cheryl Shaw’s
second time at state. She
said, “I hope that having
some experience will help
me, there’s going to be a lot
of tough competition.”
Tomi Charawell,
week’s Pete’s Pal, said,
“We’ll get some good
competition, that’s what we
need.”

Sports and Kids

Parents are invited to ask
questions when Port Angeles
High School coach Bob
Sheedy discusses “Sports
and the young child,’’ Monday, May 19, at 7 p.m.
at the First Methodist
Church, Seventh and Laurel.
Sheedy will discuss the
positive effect organized
sports have on pre-teenagers.

PC students enjoy fest

An intramural team of 26
Peninsula College students
attended the Coors Coed
Invitational Sports Festival
May 2 and 3 at Central
Washington University.
PC athlete Greg Little
summed up the weekend with
“Hot, fun, ladies, sunshine . . .” and “Good times
too.”
Physical education instructor and IM director Nancy
Bell explained that the
festival was intended to be
noncompetitive and the idea

was just to have fun.
“You could sit back and
just have fun,” said Jim
Foyston, a participant in the
festival. “You didn’t have to
worry about winning.”
“The weather was
beautiful,” he added.
The PC entourage camped
out along the Yakima River
Friday night and was joined
by a group of students from
Eastern Washington University. “It was a wonderful
camping trip,” said Bell.
Featured sports were coed

volleyball, softball, and
water basketball. The
teams—made up of 250-300
students from 17 two and
four year schools in Washington, Idaho, and Montana—also played less
conventional games such as
earthball, people pass, skin
the snake, the lap game, and
tug of war.
PC challenged students
from Green River and
festival officials to the tug of
war and beat both groups.

Charawell looks to state with tennis team

Tomi Charawell is one of
the outstanding players on
Peninsula College’s women’s
varsity tennis team. ’Till
recently, in fact, she was the
only undefeated player in the
league. Charawell was doing
so, well that she was moved
from the team’s number six
position to number five,
where she finally got her first
loss just a few weeks ago
against Clark.
At press time, Charawell
and the rest of the tennis
team were preparing to go to
league regionals.
“I think we can make it to
state.” she said, speculating
on her chances and the

chances of several of her
team members. She isn’t very
worried about playing
against Highline even if the
school is the superpower of
the league and undefeated.
“I think we can beat them,
we’re as good as they are,
Charawell said, but “1 think
they’re kind of psyched up,
because they’ve won every
match.”
At press time the PC tennis
team is 4-6 for the season. “I
think we have an excellent
chance,” said tennis coach
Kathy Murphy, referring to
the prospect of coming out
of. the regionals with some

wins.
Charawell is also active in
intramural (IM) sports. This
quarter she is playing two on
two basketball and ping
pong. Before that she played
IM team basketball and
volleyball.
She was active in high
school sports also: tennis,
basketball and volleyball.
Charawell is a business
administration major with a
current grade point average
of about 3.8. After she graduates from PC, she hopes to
get a job in that field.
“I don’t want to be a secretary,” she said, “I want to
be able to work my way up,

be one of the top people.”
Charawell also really
enjoys sailing. She has
crewed on her father’s 35
foot yacht for six years and
often races with him.
Like any old salt, she has
her racing stories. Once she
was racing with her father, in
a full gale, and the mast
broke, leaving them to motor
home under auxiliary power.
Even though her academic
schedule is fairly rigorous,
Charawell really enjoys
going to PC. “I like the
campus a lot,” she said. “1
haven’t really seen another
campus this nice.”

Bard is from Norway

By DARLA SWEM
Bard Brandastro from
Stjordal, Norway, is a
student here and known by
most of the dorm residents
where he also stays.
Bard’s main reasons for
going to school here was just
to get away, speak English
better, and to meet other
people.
To come to school in the
United States he had to take
a Toefl test which determined his knowledge of
English. Bard successfully
passed with 545 points. Five
hundred points were needed
to go to a university and 485

points were needed to go to
PC.
He was undecided about
coming to PC or two other
colleges in California but
chose PC because he knew
people in Seattle and Eastern
Washington.
Bard also had to raise all
of his money for school and
had to have his bank in
Norway send proof of this
money to PC.
While growing up in
Norway, Bard enjoyed ski
jumping, speed skating,
downhill skiing, soccer and
cross-country skiing. His
main interests now are down

hill snow skiing and cars.
One sport he has learned
since coming to PC is softball, and Bard says he likes it
a lot.
Besides softball, Bard also
likes the people here, their
friendliness, and the social
life. He thinks the Port
Angeles area is beautiful and
much like his own hometown.
He also likes visiting Eastern Washington and enjoys
the dry climate, sagebrush
and tumbleweeds.
When asked about dislikes
all he said was that he wishes
the speed limit was 70

because of the nice raods,
and the beer here is watered
down too much.
As long as Bard can
remember he has been interested in cars, so it is not
surprising that he chose
mechanics as his major.
One of his own mechanic
projects has been on “his
pride,’’ which i§ his ’55
Chevy he built his own 350
engine into.
Although he is interested
in mechanics he is not certain
he will stay in that field. Bard
is also interested in technical
mechanics.
When Bard comes home

from college he will have to
serve in Norway’s military
service. There he would like
to go into the air force where
he would like to study
airplane technology or
electronic systems on planes.

Student to go overseas

By DAVE MASON
“Exciting and adventurous’’ is what Mark Doty
expects of national and
international trip he’ll take
this summer.
The Peninsula College
freshman will tour the
United States and European
and African countries as a
sound technician for Continental Singers. The organization performs concerts of
Christian contemporary
music.
The tour’s purpose is
“basically to spread the word
of God through Christian
music,’’ said Doty, a music
and drama student.
He leaves at the end of
May for a 10 day rehearsal
camp at Arrowhead Springs,
Calif.

From there Doty will tour
the United States for three
weeks on a trip from Los
Angeles to New York. After
four and a half weeks in
Europe and Africa, the PC
student will return to the
United States for a three
week tour from New York to
Los Angeles.
Doty, though, isn’t the
only Peninsula College
student involved in the tour.
Eldon Officer, a PC
musical theater student, will
direct the tour’s choir. He’s
now at the California
rehearsal camp preparing for
the tour, Doty said.
Officer’s 24 singers make
up one of Continental
Singers’ 12 choirs. Each
group performs on a separate
tour, Doty said.
This summer’s tour will

take Officer and Doty to
Athens, Greece; Nairobi,
Kenya in Africa; Johanesberg, South Africa; Madrid,
Spain; Budapest, Hungary;
and Rome, Italy.
Doty said Officer asked
him to be the sound
technician for the tour. “1
talked to a guy (a Continental Singers representative)
over the phone about the
background I had in sound
engineering. It was pretty
much agreed upon over the
phone I would go.’’
“All I had to do was to fill
out an application,’’ he said.
Singers, on the other hand,
are chosen from thousands
of applicants submitting
audition tapes, Doty said. He
added he plans to try out
next year for singing with
Continental Singers.

Doty’s musical experience
includes performing in the
Peninsula College Choir and
Chamber Choir, the Port
Angeles Community Chorus,
the Port Angeles High
School Concert Choir, and
Vocal Unlimited, Port
Angeles High School’s jazz ‘
choir.
The PC freshman has
worked sound and light
boards for concerts, talent
shows and plays at the college
and the high school.
Besides performing, Continental Singers members will
get to do “a lot of sightseeing,’’ Doty said. Sights
will include Cape Horn,
Africa’s southern tip, he
added.
Doty said he had “no idea
what effect’’ the Christian
concert tour would have on

international relations.
The three month trip will
cost him $3,100, Doty said.
He said he’s raised $900 so
far from donations and
personal earnings.
“I have been selling a lot
of things,’ Doty said.
Contributions can be given
to Doty, who lives in room37 of the PC dormitory.
Donations can also be made
to the United Presbyterian
Church, Eighth and Oak
Streets, in his name.
*Doty has a few words of
advice for anyone “who gets
a chance to do something
like’’ the Continental Singers’ tour.
“Do it because you may
never get the chance again.’’

BOOM!

“Business is booming!”
declared Jim Lunt, director
of student activities, about
the new locker rentals. 12 of
the 30 storage lockers located
in the PUB have been rented
at the rate of $3 for small
lockers and $5 for large.
Lunt said he was mystified
by the report in a March
issue of the Buccaneer of a
“controversy” concerning
the lockers and the right of
the college to inspect them.
He said no objections have
reached his office.

Job placement available

Local employers are being
urged to consider Peninsula
College students and alumni
for jobs.
Wendy Shea, placement
office coordinator, said the
office seeks full and parttime, temporary and permanent jobs for students
who need employment while
attending college. The office
also helps Peninsula alumni
find jobs, she said.
“Many of our students
seeking employment possess
valuable job skills,” Shea
noted. “Quite a number are
returning to the classroom
after being out in the work
world.”
Shea said there is a particular need for jobs involving
general labor and those

requiring skills such as
carpentry or truck driving.
Many students also have
interest and skills for clerical
and sales jobs, she said.
During one recent quarter
81 students and 54 job
requests from employers
were registered with the
placement office. 35 college
students were hired as a
result of referrals.
Shea said knowing more
about local firms’ needs for
employees can help students
be more aware of the type of
job openings and salaries
anticipated locally.
Another goal of the placement office is to help former
students get a job after they
complete college programs,
he said.

Hostetler return indefinite

Judge Tyler Moffett’s May
5 ruling gave Tom Hostetler
his job back, but Moffett
lidn’t set a deadline for the
college to call the continuing
•ducation director and
speech teacher back to work.
Four days after that
-uling, neither the college
administration nor its lawyer
had contacted him or his
attorney about when he
could come back to work,
Hostetler said.
The college won’t call
Hosterler back to work until
it receives the written ruling,
Paul Cornaby said last
Friday.
As of Wednesday, the
college had not received the

ruling nor had Cornaby met
with Hostetler.
In related news, no
decision had been made as of
the Buccaneer deadline
Wednesday on which
statewide union the college
Faculty Association would
join. Choices are Washington Federation of Teachers
and Washington Education
Association.
Jack Estes, faculty
grievance committee chairman, called the union organizing a ’‘direct outgrowth”
of the Hostetler controversy.
Hostetler .said he had
hoped to meet with college
president Paul Cornaby last
Friday to ‘‘see where I am”

with his job. He was denied
that meeting, though, he
added.
“It doesn’t look like
Cornaby will talk to me,”
Hostetler said.
College Board of Trustees
Chairman Fred Rosmond,
Forks, refused to comment
on the Hostetler case.
Moffett ruled last week
that Hostetler’s firing was
“invalid” because, the judge
said, the administratorteacher had tenure.
“It appears on the surface
that Cornaby is reluctant to
let me back in” because of
tension caused by the firing
and the May lawsuit,
Hostetler said.

The continuing educaton
director said he would not
have a problem working with
the college president and
other administrators, but
added the administration
may have a problem working
with him.
When asked if he held no
resentment towards Cornaby
for the firing, Hostetler said,
“I didn’t say that.”
Hostetler, meanwhile, is
not losing any pay by staying
away from work. When he
was fired, he was paid the
rest of his salary for this
school year.
The continuing education

director predicted another
court ruling would not be
necesary to get the college to
take him back.
“The judge put down the
order. They (the college
administration) are just
dragging their feet.”

13 students hypnotized “Listen to the sound of my voice”

By TIM CHAMBERLAIN
“Listen to the sound of my
voice,” he repeated over and
over again as the lights
dimmed and a mysterious
blue light suddenly appeared
from behind the subjects.
“Listen to the sound of my
voice,” he chanted, as the
seashore sound effects grew
louder.
In minutes, most of the
subjects on the Peninsula
College Little Theater stage
were totally relaxed and
susceptible to hypnotic
suggestion.
Thirteen students went
under Seattle hypnotist Dave
Arnett’s spell May 5 as part
of last week’s college Springfest.
The ones that didn’t “go
under” were quickly
replaced by the ones in the
audience that did.
After he had them sound
asleep, the hypnotist woke
them up and suggested they
were feeling very warm.
Some broke out in a heavy
sweat, others removed their
coats and fanned their faces.
After he cooled them off,
he gave them all a horrible
case of body odor. The
subjects on stage started
giving each other dirty looks
and tried to move away from
each other.
The hypnotist then put the
subjects out of their misery
oy putting them back under.
Waking them up again, he
told them they had just seen
the funniest thing they’ve
ever experienced. Gales of
laughter broke out on stage
and off.
Next he made everyone on
stage believe they were on a
roller coaster. Their reactions ranged from sheer
ecstasy to complete terror.
After .leaving the roller
coaster, the hypnotist gave
each of his subjects a pet
monkey.

“What have you got
there?” he asked one of
them.
“A monkey,” camethe
answer.
“What do you call him?”
“Munk.”
He asked one of the proud
moneky owners whether his
pet was a boy monkey or a
girl monkey. It was a boy.
“How do you know?”
asked the hypnotist.
“I checked,” was the

answer.
Next the hypnotist made
the subjects believe everyone
in the audience was stark
naked! The hypnotist
brought out one girl to the
edge of the stage and asked
her what she thought of the
audience.
“They’re disgusting!” she
said.
“What about him?” asked
the hypnotist, pointing to PC
instructor Jack Estes. “He’s
cute!” she replied.

After that, the hypnotist
look away the girl’s ability to
say the number three. He
also had her convinced she
had eleven fingers.
As the show ended, the
hypnotist gave each of his
subjects a post-hypnotic

suggestion that they all had
great memories.
Hypnotists believe if
people think they have a
good memory, they will have
a good memory.

New marine lab

By LINDA RHODES
After 10 years of planning
and fund raising, the marine
laboratory and interpretive
center planned for the new
municipal pier in Port Angeles will become a reality

by fall of 1980, said Dean of
Students Art Feiro.
“The state legislature
granted us $110,000 to build
the facility providing we
could match the grant with
$40,000 locally,” said Feiro.
With the latest donation
from The’ Crown Zellerbach
Foundation in San Francisco, Feiro said the local
Friends of the Lab fund
raising group have accumulated $45,000 in funds.
The facility will be used by
all Olympic Peninsula school
districts, kindergarten
through college. Commercial
fishermen, divers, boaters
and tourists are other groups
that will benefit from a
laboratory with salt water
access.
Feiro will teach a noon
class at the lab. “I’m very
excited,” he said. “The class
is planned to offer local
people a place to brown bag
it while they learn about our
local marine life.”
Feiro also hopes to
establish a Sunday afternoon
series of discussions for
families using movies, slides,
and tours. Marine science
and diving classes plus
meetings and general use by
marine oriented local groups
will take place in the
evenings.
