No arrests have been made in connection with the tlvccsexU:~I
assaultS on campus reported in October and November . The
Portlund Police Dcparunent {PPD} and Lewis and Clark Socwity
are still investigating the cases, which appear to be unrelated.
"We have no new leads or evidence of that nature." BrindD
Carroll, DirectOr of Security, said. "I highly doubt they will be
caught."
OcL IS a woman wasropcdataboutlOp .m. near Howard Hall.
ln a second me adem OcL 28 a woman was auacked as she walked
alone from the Rusty Nwl in Copeland donn to Platt dorm at about
mtdn•ghL She was forced to the ground but escaped. Nov. l a man
entered a woman ·s ground floor dormitory room and roped her ot
about5 a.m.
Wally Turay. Detective Sergeant ofPPD. smd 1l's particularly
difficult to make arrests in rape cases because of l.he ambiguity of
the ~'Uspects and the right to privacy of the victims. In 1987 there
were 407 ropes reported to the PPD. of which 124 arrests were
made.
To help empower Lhc LC community against fu.nher incidents
of Lhis nature, several changes were made around campu over
break by Security and PhysicoJ Plant Services. Lights were put in
plAce along the path between Templeton College Center and Odell
Manor as well as around Hattlfcld Dorm; security screws which
can be removed only from the inside were placed on ground level
wmdows in Copeland and Forest Donns; and combinations were
changed on all dorm doors. swd Joe S1mmons, Asstsl3nt Director
of Physica.J Plant Serivces.
Changes bemg ltlSbgated lhis tetm include additional lights in
lhe Griswold Parking lol. nnd the road running behind the lihrary
to the rose garden will be barricaded seven days a week at 10 p.m.
and re-opened the following momi.ng by Security. Carroll said.
An emergency phone with a dueclline to Security wilJ also be
installed m the lower campus ciscle across the bndge from Piau­
Howard dorm wtllun the next month. Stmmons said.
"We still need lO be concerned w1th safety issues;· Denise
Thompson, Acting Dean of Students said, "not so that we can live
in fear, but so we can live with some son of dignjry and control over
our own lives."

The fU'Stleg of our journey through grass roots relations with
the Soviet Union ended last Thursday morning. The dcp:murc of
the five Russian women who came to Lewis and Clark from the
Soviet Far Eastern city of Khabarovsk marks the succe.cosful close
ot our part in the first, undcrgmduate. coUegc-to-college, student­
faculty exchange between the US and the USSR.

Titough they moy have been excited to sec a CupiLOI that
represents the very antithesis of their Kremlin as wcU a~ happy to
return home to their famil ics, they cc.nainly didn't up pear that way
to the few bleary-eyed LC students there to see them off. There
were tears on both sides. as roommat.cs and friends said goodbye;
but not forever-many promisc..c; were nwfe.
Allhough they arrived at Lewis and C1arlc later than expected.
the womenquickJy became a part of donn nnd campus life. To
make up for some of the lost Lime. they st.:lyed in the U.S. even :liter

a one-week communa l identity
cnstS
The reason for the week of
speakers and workshops is to ad­
dress quosuons which typ1fy those
asked by students who are experi­
encmg what has come to be known
as a "sophomore slump," ques­
llons ltke "what do 1 do 1f 1 don't
want to be here?" and "what good
ts a ltbcml nns educauon?", Dale
Holloway, Student Suppon Serv­
ices Coordinator and one of the
evcm organtlers. swd .. 1 thmk at's n novel idea I»
cause at one pomt or another we all
face burnout. and having a week
of seminars is a way for tho Col­
lege to address lhe issue," one
sophomore, who has spent tune m
the counseltng center, said.
The focus is on sophomores
because it is generally in the sopho­
more year that students fecl most
overwhelmed by feeling of rransl·
tion, HoUoway said.
"Sophomore year IS a great
wne to be aljve because of the
intensity of cxpcricncmg every­
thing-emotional ly, mtollectually
and socially," she said, ''but thas
intensity createS stress." Swdents
fuce the paradox of feeling Wee
they need to make dects1ons whtlc
at the same ume feehng most open to a w1de range of poss~biliues .
.. nus can cause much con­
flict." Holloway sa.td. ''It's a nec­
essary thing but t.Juu doesn't make
tl any caster."
"It can happen jwuor year, or
other wnes," she swd. although
she pomtcd out that the sophomore
slump phenomenon 1S one wtuch
has been recogmzed m JOurnals
and other literoturc.
The dinner on Thursday is

Policy's Enforce1nent
On Fnd:.y, De . J, the ulumni office held ars nnnuul Chnsunns party for
alumni office held its annual Chnsunas party for aJumm, stnlT, faculty, and
friends of the collq~c . Ovcr800 people \\-Cn: reponed to be m auendance The
party was held throughout the upper two floors of the Templeton CoJlcge Center
During the party alcohol" as served to the gueslS, "hich has brought question
ll" to hcthcr or n01 Lhc alcohol pol.Jcy "as followed.
As most students nrt aware. the college hns a very slnct alcohol pohcy.
Rcponsthatthesc:; rules were vaoiQtedha' ebccnchecked by thePwnttrLog and
found to be 1rue Let us state that we do not condemn that alcohol was served
th1 is allowed and the school did have nn alcohol bctnse as requtrcd by state law.
The problem is that e tablished policacs \\Cre disregarded Just because the
College was not in scssaon doosn 't mean the rules can be broken. Many studcniS
were sull on campus and had acces~ to the party.
The n1cohot polic\ for "public places", of whac h Templeton JS one. states
that "it wtll be IJle re.sponstbt.hty of IJle sponsonng group to prov1de adenufica ~
Lion check pomrs nt each door tO the room where IJle alcoholts tO be served." This
is to prevent anyone who is under 21 years of age from gauung access to alcohol.
However. there were no such "check poims" ru the doors to IJle build10g and
under.tge slUdents who were In mg on or VlStUng caropus were able 10 gam free
and ca~) ' access 1.0 tht areas of Templeton where the pany lOOk place.
A second violation of the pohcy wns in the arcu of secunty. The policy
rcads,"IJlcsponsoring group must provtde sccunty for funcuons at whach there
is the possibilil) of aucnd.ance by more than 50 people. and must provide
additional security at a ratio of 1 75 or as required by the associate dean of
students for campus even~." Given the reported 800 persons tn attendance. 10
sccunty personnel would have been requiJ'Cd for the event However, the only
security was provided by campus security This too is in violuuon of the alcohol
policy wh1ch states, "security staff as not tO be taken tO mean the Campus Security
Office". The alumni Chrisunas party twtce vtoluted llle security pohcy. Jus ha.rd
to know exactly what son of security was provided for the pany for security
personnel arc to be listed on the applicauon and no application was filed for this party.
While the Ptonur Log is not attempting 1.0 point a blaming finger at
an> one, it has raised some concerns. When student groups such as SOFA have
parties like Lhe Homecoming Dance. alcohol ts stnctly forb1dden. Thas lS correct
for most students are not of drinking age and can not be legally ~rvcd. Also
before entering the dance, all studcnLS arc chC(ked and inside lhe dance, cxtr~
securuy per. onncl are presenL These steps arc taken to provtde for a safe
envtronmcnL Should any student be injured, drunk or sober, the College could ,
be hablc for legal damages.
lt seem those responsible lor the alumm Chrisun~ pMty dctcmuned that
they were under a different set of rules. What is for the good and wellbemg of
the students is not necessary for those a few y~ older than us. We question
what son of double st.andurd has been set and what son of example llus prov1dcs
for studen&S. Mo)t studcnlS understand nnd adhere to the alcohol policy know­
ing that it is in their own gOOd. The Pwnur Log feels the alcohol pohcy is for
the good of everyone and everyone can easily abide by tl
Again, we mean no muJicious intent, but tathcr to protect f:llmess and
equality among aJI mcmbc:tsof the LC community. If we have gouen uny ofllle
fuelS wrong, ple~e let us know. • Letters to the Editor

val univers1ues Evadence abounds. how­
ever. that as long as the tenure system con­
tinues--and at tS in place at most colleges
and unaversatics in thlS count.ry-onc of the
gravest errors an insutuuon can make is to
rely heavily on adJunct or short tenn faculty
appomunents .
Why is this such a mistake? First.
anstead of spending thc1r time teachmg,
meeung w1th students and CruT)'tng out ac
uve research programs, faculty are requared
to spend enonnous amounts of lime und
energy trying to secure employment. In
stead of spendmg u few more hours tn their
office bcmg uvrulable to studenr..s and col­
leagues, mstead of dcvelopang and pa.ruct·
pating m programs l..h.ru. make a college more
than n scnes of course offenngs. faculty are
madly trvmR to SQuecz.c out evcrv possible
publicauon and auendmg lO the incredibly
tedious process of carrying out a nauonal
academac JOb search. What ktnd of a SUltement does this
make about LC, whc.n Uacre not only exists
an unusually large proponion of non-tenure
trUCk faculty. but whco this exploited under­
class (t.hnt they are u~derpnid goes wtthout
snying)consist~primnrilyofwomcn? Lofly
institutional goal~. exciting annual sympo­
sia. and even progrc..~ s1ve swdcnt und tuc­
ulty nttitudes nrc ull important. But do not
these positive institutional signs of cnsltiv­
ity to gender issues make it all tho more
intolerable t.hat LC continues to so openly
and blatantJy exploit women'!
As I have Died to figure out how tJtis
condauon can exist at LC, of all places, l
have uncovered what t believe tO be an ex­
tremely troubling condtLIOn 1 will refer tO it
as the tenured faculty's abdacauon of rc­
spons.ibatit)' for the management or Uu. ansti­
tuuon Timt and again, when tal.kang with
tenured or t.cnurc lrtlCk facuhy. J would hear
unacceptable conditions and policies of this
instituuon explained awny as the fault of
poor admanistration. Gifted and intelligent
people who have made a name for !.hem­
selves by raking responsibility for the quol­
ity of thelt lives, seem to have I' b!ind spot
when 11 comes lO the mt!!Ulgement of the in­
sutuuon with whi~h they have nffilmtcd.
All of my C:(perience at other colleges
has taught me well t.hnt t.hc faculty shares rc­
sponstbil1ly wtth the board of t.ruslces for
creaung an ansuwoon which mwttmiu:.s
opponumue.s for education If the anstitu­
uon is poorly managcd.th cn Lhc full cduca­
tionnl polcnuulas not bemg reached. Ids the
responsibility of the lacutry. thcn,to sec to it
Uult t.he board of tru:;tccs know~ what needs
to be numagcd. The board Ut•:n. in close
consui!Jltion wit.h the fuculty. brings in t.he
people to accomplish the m.tn.1gcri:!.l goals
set by the faculty! To sit bacL: and b!umc the
instituuonal shon.comin.Jts on ooor manrutc­
mcmas ..,;mply an abdication of responsibil­
ity by t.hc tenured faculty.
Faculty need to make t.hemselves heard on Lht~ campus in ways th.u uppcar to me to
have been neglected in the recent P'lSt.
Faculty need to send a cleur und ~trong
message to the board of ltUStc:CS that over·
reliance on non·tenure trJCk fuculty up­
poanuncnts is dctrimenUl.lto the t:calthof the
institution a.nd contmdicts the mission of
LC. By the same token, faculty need to let
the Board know thnt the c~ndition of the
physical plant is simply intolerable. I tutve
never seen u campus with such :1. beautiful
scuing and such pitiful clao;sroom and omce
space. Faculty arc doing themsclvc.~. the
Ludents and the in.wwtion n great di serv­
ice by pret.cnding Lha.tclassrooms filled with
broken chairs or scmin.ars that meet in large
lecture ha.lJs ure romehow quainL If there i~
no heat or vcntilauon m faculty ofliccs, it is
unreasonable 10 assume t.hat faculty will
s~nd much ume there, and thi~ huns the in­

those jerks in t.he manor house r;:..U ly ~ouJd
be out rn.isin~ more money instead of col­
lecting the ~ig sa.laries and going to meet·
In~:: ::.11 d:ly," is simply not enough.
l am convinced that Lhis faculty C3ll
overcome its problems.. But this will not
happen as long :J.S faculty put all t.heir energy
and a.ttention inLO looking for n presidential
messiah. Ceruinly the next president oflC
will hnve a significant impact on where this
college as headed. But ruther than wasting
too much time loolang for the perfect presi­
dent. and assummg tJuu if we JUSl find the
right pcoon, she will take care of aU our
problems, why not work as well on estab­
ll!hmg as a fucully n cl~ set of priority
nctions for the udministrntion of the coUcge
to carry out?
I wish this institution well. I believe in
what it is D)'ing LO stand for. I hope th.nt in
a mall way this o1ece can conuibutc to the
process of gw.ang LC back on the right
truck.

To the BdiLOr:
Let us remember, lest we forgel that
the Lewis and Clock cnmpus w~ not a
happy pln~ to be lastlCml.
Most people cnn figure out what I'm
Ullkmg about, bul for those who don 'l. t.here
were three sexual auacks on thas CJlJllpus in
~many wcck.s last tcnn.
After these incidents occurred, a huge
amount of energy was directed towards the
problems on campus. Groups were organ­
ized to lalk about t.he problems; indtvaduals
were tulkmg ond helping each other. There
w& a sense of uniry.
Now. we • ve been scpar-Jtcd from cuch
other for si..\ weeks, and the subjc l has
moved from the forefront of people'~ minds
as we begin the new t.cnn. 1 huvcn 't seen
much acknowledgement this tcnn o( the
uu.ncks t.hut occurred last term. I see people
walking n.Jone at naght. People aren't talk­
ing as much. There urcn 't as many !.'l'Oups.
That1s understundable: thts bcmg t.hc
second week mo.st of us urc still ~truightcn·
iuR out our ptrsonal livc.s. But w~ c.an 't
ignore what hup~n~d. If we ignore it, the
chllllccs of it happcnmg nguin uro only
greater.
A group ~till exists to help further
uwdfencs.s of the problem of rope nnd take
action uguinst iL Tho group's name is SUSA. Studcnti
Urutcd for S~uaJ Awareness. and at wa
started last year, long bcf01e the ropes of las.
tcnn. intending to educate Lhe LC commu­
nity about subjects such as rape in order lC
prevent incidents such as last leml's from
happerung.
Unfonwurdy. the incidents happened
anyway.
Fon.unately,SUSA tSSliU u.round.an d
we need that group now more than eve~.
Earlier this week, SUSA hod its :-li'Sl
meeting of the term. The tow number in
nucndance was nine. It ~ou ld go without
saying that tfthc group had more members,
it could accomplish more of it.s goals more
easily.
The group's meetings nre CWl'Ciltly
held at6 p.m. on Tuesdays in lh4llounge by
the mfonnru.ion desk in Templeton. If that
• • • ume IS mconvenacnt, people are encourugcd
to call Karla Wolf 8l244-1H44.
As much as most of us wish il would.
rupc is not going LOgo away by itself. People
need to work at it; SUSA is willing to work.

In junior hagh the rules changed dras

had to ha,·c pcrfcc\Cd an atutudc of toUll

A nondescript person with a general
interest in life's cwiosit.ies, who possesses
the typical characteristics of the generic stu­
dent, complete with an adhesive vo.lidat.ion
:>Licker that fits on the back of a norrnaJ five
digitiD card. may auimes feel overwhelmed
by the heaps of entertaining. intriguing, ng­
grd,·a.Ling, and stimulating issues, course ,
rclat.ionships, and unfocused wHdness that
abound on a college campus. The definition
of the word focus is almost rendered obso­
lete, or at most it is altered to act as a syno­
nym for the word sprint, to jump up and run
for u shon disr.ancc at top speed. There is
certainly no quesuon thru students need
outl~ for the frustration& thutdevelop from
this style of ltving. Release mccharusmscan
mnge from holJday f11e-side chats m the
wilderness to weekend rogers with drugs
and booLc, or even to a midweek hard-core
rock ~how. but what follows is a fict.itious
account of a student who fmds his rcle-1se
through recycling.
Student #33582 ambles into the court
yard preoccupied by the concerns of a new
term und :still feeling that tJte thoughts of the
old tcnn were nc\'et completely soned ouL
He turns in the rain and looks towurd the
mounuun which on clearer day~ follows in a
visible Hnc with the American Oug soaring
hagh mop its flagpole. But. toduy, "every­
thing is fogged and not likely to clear," he thinks As he sl.ralns for a glimpse of Lhis
maJestic vtston a low guuural rage of emo­
uon slowly butlds deep in has throaL The
knot m hts stomach Lightens and the forbtd­
den qucsuons are forced out.
"What docs that flag represent? Our
freedom? Then why the yellow coaLed
escorts? Our honor? Then why does our flag
bum so often overseas? Our pnde? Then
why is it so difficult to care for the environ­
ment we so revere?''
Student #33582 lowers h1S head and
his eyes come to rest on a bollle lntenng the
lawn. He pounces savagely on thc beer
contniner,deadse ton oblit.craung 1un all his
anger agamst the retainmg woJl with its
loosc-hpped fash heads blurting forth Lhetr
watery message. But. 10 m1d-swing some·
thmg rcstnuns ham and the momentum of
lhe effon throws h•m to Lhe muddy earth, a
sobering and well deserved punishment
It then OCCllni to this a!fcc.t.cd student
thru this attempted dtsposal was a fantastic
relense from the daily stresses even af it was
too severe. It would cerWnly be o fonni­
c:Llble task to force a glass bottle to decom­
pose insLant.aneously.
As the humiliation of his acuon be­
gins lO recede a new issue invades his
thoughts. "What about reusing instead of
aJways disposing? It would seem that if we
djdn't want to continue landscaping our
neighborhoods with landfill projects then
more comprehensive recycling would be u eruct countcrpoan l to the 14-year-old hulks

Butl'm not a quattct. l fanned new
suntega~ to wm the game of Cool. I notJced
that Don Man1on got a gulfnend and went
from bcang a gcck to an admired and con­
sulted stud m a matter of days. So I con
spared to g-.:: a garlfncnd. 1 went on the
prowl, as. c.ssang my prospects among the
girls 1 knew Some of them thought 1 was
cute, but only m the sense that l remmded
them of thell' little brother.
When finally I found someone for
whom 1 felt buttcrflaes nnd who seemed to
feel. the same for me. 1 wasted no Lime. l
reached over and held her hand and an­
nounced that we were now gomg together
Wend> did not prote-st. and I was filled w1th
the fcchng of accomplishment
After walkmg hand in-hand for sev­
eral days, howe\'er, I began to rca.lize that a
ccrt.am commitment was rcqU\rcd of m~ 1
might pcrhap~ be C\peCtcd to lass her soon.
and then what? Confronted w1th m) vas tag·
noranccon the ~UbJCt.tof romance and fr.ght·
cncd by the prospect of getting ll wrong, I
C:\pl.aincd to Wendy that th.tS rclauonship
was getung too senous and Lhnt it was best
for us to break up.
In hagh school the rules for Cool agrun
changed The lingo was dJffercnt.: words
hke "e,ccllem,'"'totally ,"and "wagged out"
became the mnrks of Cool speech. At one
poant it was fash1onable to use a kmd of
manamaJtsl speech wtlh as few words as
possible. the ultimate goal bemg to usc one
word to describe evcrythang. The closest
anyone ever came to Lhas was wtth Lhe word
'''jam •· h came to mean "leave," "food,"
"woman," "money," "good thing," "bad
thmg," etc • s..> that a typ1cal sentence m•ghl
very appealing.'' After pondering this prob­
lem for some ume a smile begins to appear
on has fnce. "Here as an opportuni ty for an
acuve stance on an •ssue Lhat will be around
for the rest of my life. The viSible results
provtde some sausfacuon that make it cas1er
to put energy an to other concerns. Thtnk of
the impact rccychng has when each person
sons out thcar own dust ban!"
By this timestudcnt#33582hasreally
turned on to the adea and runs off to find out
how to deal wllh thas recycling bus mess and
ammcduucly crashes mto student #44384.
As she stands to shake the dtzzmess from
her head he scrambles to p1ck up the mess of
papers he has caused her to dump out of a
barrel she was carrying. ..Sorry for slnm­
mmg an to you like that," he says, "but could
you tell me why you are lugging alllhis trnsh
around?"
She coolly rephes, "lh1s is noLtrosh,
my fncnd, rather samples of recyclable ma­
tenals. You see, thas barrel of'trash' can be
scpa.rnted mto several catcgoncs-w hite
paper, colored paper, ncwspapcr,cardboard,
and there m the bottom arc plasucs, met.als,
and glass ttems, which can also berccycled."
"Can everything be recycled?" he asks.
"Well, there arc Lhmgs hke that J.
Crew catalogue wath aJJ the wonderful piC·
tun~s you arc holdang whach recycling cen­
ters w1ll accept but it must be kept separate
from the other reusables." Then with a

Thumbs Down!
By JOHN STACEY
Ptoneer Log staff Page9
1 find myself at odds about The Accidental Tourisl. I went lO see
it on the basas that I heard it had good reviews, and good actors. I left
the theater feeling thai those reviews were unsubstantiated, and Lhe
actors dtd not live up to their names. It is dangerous to go against
people who gel paid to write about movies, but I believe that a case can
be made.
The Accid~ntal Tourist, sla.Cring WiUtam Hun, Kathleen Turner,
and Gccna Davis lacked any of the aspect.s great movies contain ucept
the famous casL
IL is easiest to categorize :.he movte by what it was noL It was not
a comedy. lt was not a thriller. And. most surprising. it was not a
drama. The general plot rouues around William Hurt's personal
inadequacies both wtth women, and hJmsetf. It is dllother two-hour
love tnanglc where one man bounces between his est.ran&ed wife and
h•s g•rlfnend. It is not. however, any Fatal A!tracuon-
fhe Accrdencal Tourist lacks the action to lceep you amerested.
Hurt's character's speech paucm~ reflect the pace of the mov1e.; slow.
His thought patterns, his relationships, even his dog maamains u
laboriously slow lifestyle. It seemed exciting when the charnctcrs
simply rrused thell' voices-a conlr.l.Stt.o lhe monotone dialogue that
was muuercd during most of the movie.
Sadly, the scriptts also missmg the emotional qual.tues to keep you
anvolved. Hurt's character was incapable of showing the feelings of
remorse, love. and confusJon-wfuch would constitute the fiJm as a
drama. Kathleen Tumer'scharact.erasn'tJUStd.iffcrentfrom the one in
Body Ileal, it isn't anytlung at all. She plays the bland housewife who
decides to leave her bland husband. Gcena Davis, William Hurt's
ternplreSS into a dt.fTcrenthfestyle, was also uninteresting. Rather than
being someone fascinating,so.nc()nelhatcould offer Hurta way out of
his rut, Davis portrays a character in a rut equally deep. And boring.
Essentially. the only movemem in Lhe mm was Hurt's chn.racter
development. However, at the end of the ft.lm, the same mnnilla tint
covered the screen. The title could hc~ve been a spanoff from
Sha.kespearcts Much Ado aboUJ Nothing and not been 1.00 far off the
mark.
If you arc interested m the mega-names of Hun, Davis. and
Turner-stick to the films Kiss of the Spider Woman. The FlyandBody
Heal. Seeing the three together forces you toq11estion both their acting
cnpabaltucs and their eye in packing a good scripL
4AD Album Review
By JENNY BROWN
Ptoneer Log staff
The Wolfgang Pres.r-IJird Wood Cage I
The latest4AD release by this trio from England will mostli.Jcely
continue to perpetunte the myl.h of this band as being obscure geniuses.
Unfonunately, the release of this album probably will slip qu!elly past
public acclaim and mega sales right into the established genre of post
modem. Gothic. industrial minimalism cherished by a privileged few.
The album cover iL~lf features a tum of the century toilet
photographed on a lawn whde the back displays a dat.ed oven with a
musUU'd yellow Jceule placed on the stove, none of which 1 could derive
any feas1ble symbolic mearung which is probably the point behind
much of what goes on in the Wolfgang Press.
Most of the ttacks on Bird Wood Cag~ are of typical Wolfgang
Press fare in that the album in its entirety feels like a very slow death.
The lyrics are astream-of -consciousness kind of thought purge sung in
a quavering, hollow, morose drone. lo this album, the Press continue
to convey the ~perience of creeping through life in torment knowing
thattbe mosr intenseobjoctofpusonal fear could be lurking behind the
next comer. The content of Bird Wood Cagt features the distinguish­
ing Press sounds of brooding bass lines. organs. piano and subdued
screeching guitar as well an array of unconventional surprises such as
violins, homs, various household appliances, drum pMgrams and
sample loops, all which makes for a virtually rich and varied brand of
• CApenrnenUltton.
An example of this depanure from the standard Press sound can
be found m "Kansas." The feverish tempo, grinding guiUlr and
growling vocals conjure up images of a seemingly nonnaJ Midwestern
Ameri~un town where the cif.Uenry have gone mad from eating
diseased com and become cannibalistic heathens dwing the full moon.
"Bouom Drawer" porttays the Press' effective capability to creep
upon the senses wilhouttak.ing one by surprise. The subdued lyrics.
overset by a howling siren is enough to convince one that the strength
in this band lies in the inability of its &ormented soul to rest in peace.
For if lbe peace were fmally made. The Wolfgang Press would die.
Along with othcr4AD bands such as Xymox, Dead Can Dance and Tho
Cocaeau Twins, who try to assume the creative upper hand in LhcSlUdio
and the indio music business. The Wolfgang Press once again prove
their independence through elusiveness. orts
