A lot of the women that live in
Akin Hall arc International students

Thc.-;c women feel more comfort­
able in a female cnvuonment \)e.
c:auo;e they come from gender-seg­
regated cultures where men and
women do not mangle m an open
way like men and women in West­
em cultures do. A few women

Mr. Slone claims. Seven women

Why does everybody make
such a big deal about Akin. the only

several gender segregated halls in
other dorms on campus? Anyway,
ev\!n it all the dorms were co-ed, the

you start accusing innocent people,

Vldu.U You have even admitted
thi• to me ctnd otheB. So bclore you
start acxusrng anyone of being aex­
ilt, perhap• you should change
younclf flnt. Once you have done
th~t then you might learn how to
write an effactlvc article in which
your iuxua.ations are aupported by
some kind o( proof. Then before
you wnte another article perhaps
you 5hould think 6Criously about
the consequences. Did you really
think your friendt would not be
a ffottcd, cs peciall y if they're female. l, for one, am not only offended by
your article but also by your an•
swerlng machine message. You are
a pig,. and I can never forgive you
for what you have done.
lf you are at Lewie and Clark
for its divenity, then you 'houldn't
condemn anyone's chotec All of
the women in Akin chose to live
there, no ona la fo~ to stay in
Akln and no body (malt!) Is forced
to stay out. Which bring11 up an­
other point. It Ia not women's fault
that male prison inmates are driven
to revolt because of lack of female influence, but do you ~lly think
lt't the same vice verse? Personally
I believe that a woman docs not
need a man and a man does not
need a woman. Human bc.mgs need
other human besngs regardless of
sex Mr Stone, 1t is time you learn a
new word in place of 5eXist, it 1s
HUMANlST
Even though you don't have
the balls to face any woman on this
campus, including myself, I hope
you can gather up ~me courage to
read ~J of these letters seriously
and learn that you have not only
offended m.any, but have also hurt
people. And may I mention Lhat
you have also destroyed many rela­
tions on your floor. Now don't you
think it's about time to stop this
chlJdtsh game of yours and apolo­
gize to everyone you have done

Fourth-year Akin resident resents Stone's criticisms
To the Edilqr·
I am writingto express my con·
rem about the mfsconccptions per­
petuated of women in Akin and of
women's dorms in the editorial that
appeared In last wcclc:' s Pio Log.
Since the author's assertJons are
Without foundation , I refuse to take
hls article seriously . What disturbs
me though is the way In which the
article reinloaces stereotypes of and
negativeattitudesabout women and
the lifestyles they choose.
Most criticism of all-women
dorms or institutions seems to fo­
cus on the absence of men and male infJuence , d~ not value them
detractors

ing that

s e n c e

When one
lives in a so-Wltat disturbs me though is the way in
which the article reinforces stereotypes of
and negative attitudes about women and
the lifestyles they clroose. or their contribu­
tion5 highly.

out these few yc.us,
ciety whose history, belief systems,
political and economjc institutions ,
and social organizations have and
continue to exclude women on the
basis of sex, can you blame women
for wanting to belong to something
thatthcycanca.U their own? Women do not live in all·women dorms or
ittctld all·women t.nstitutions be­
causethey hat:emen; they livt!there

them with a muc.h needed source of

LC softball avenges earlier losses to Pacific Lutheran
by Amy McDonnell
of IN Piori«T Log
Which should come first, the
good news or the bad news? let's
gcsthcbad newJoutoftheway . On
Monday, April '2:1, the LewiJ and
Clark women'' softball team lost
both of their games to WDlamettc
University by fiCO ret. of 6-4 and 12-
2.
Okay, that'$enough of the bad
news. The good news is that the
Pionc:c' dropped Padfic Lutheran
1.0 in their first con~t Sunday,
April 26.
ThJ.s was not an everyday vic­
toryfortheladysluggenduetothe
fact that PlU i~ ranked the number
one team in the nation. 'This wcekfond wa5 pretty spe­
cial," commented Head Coach Don
Wescott. 'The luds have never
beaten PLU smoe they've been
here"' In the~r last conhontation
wtth the Lutes, lC suffered two
ugly lonc:s whh &COres of 11-1 and
10~ .
Since then, t.h~ Pio'a have
brought home two wine against
ConcordiaCollegc-6-3and 18-1-
foUowcd by their eweet vengeful
sua:ess again&t PLU.
"'Our key Is our pitching,,. as­
SC5&ed Wescott. 1ft is) our ace on
the mound ... With a strong arm lor
LC. pitcher Kri1 Rider has led the
team m 11 victorious battles. Since
April 18, reUef pJtcher Shawna
Meyer has mnsaatcntly allemated games with Rider, racking up a 44
tea> rd.
Obviously, the entire team's
performance ls cruoal Rclcmng
to their collective efforts, Wescott
said, 'They dug a little deep (and]
they've been on a rollsincc the PLU
fiasco.''
Third year player Bna Eakin
leads the Pio's scoring efforts with
22 runs and a .366 batting average
Betly Hciter and Meyer arc not far
bcl\.lnd with a .343 cU\d .339 aver­
age, respectively.
The Pio'a will wi.nd down their
regular sea10n this week with d
doubleheader aga.lnlt Concordia,
Thuraday,April30 . Oittrict2cham·
pionahlp action starts on Friday,
Mayl. again for the final game. The 'Lutes
grabbed twoquickrunsoffof swter
MltchElrod . However, likehi.sother
strongperformanceduringthepre­
vlous Sunday against Western Or­
egon, Elrod didn't allow another
run lor the rest of the game.
The ~o's quickly defused the
'Lute scoring threat with a run of
their own in the fU'St mning, and
thc.n two more m the third. In the
fihh, Dan Ruhl singled, and then
advanced to second when Donny
Lien was hit by a pltch.
With Craig Pickard at bat, Ruhl
and L1cn successfully pulled off a
double steal. Pickard then h.it a
sacrifice fly, scoring Ruhl, and ad­
vancing Lten to third The Pio's
ended the mmng leading 4-2.
Things were quiet until the
bottom of the sixth, when the Pio's
startl.>d another raJly. The first two
batters, jake Anders and Robb
Tanaka, walked Steve Gatto came
in for the sacnficc bunt, advancmg
the runners to second and third.
Ryan Huffstetler then blasted
<1 pitch to left-center , JUSt short of
the home run fence. The 350-foot
,hot gave htm a double, and ea'illy
scored the runners to g1vc LC a 6-2
lead. The Pio' s added another run in
the seventh, but Dan Ruhl put the
game away ln the eighth inning
with his seventh home run of the
season. After Scott McPherson
reached first on t·hc second
baseman's error, Ruhl clobbered a
pitch way beyond the left fie.ld fenm
The ball cleared theequipment shed
behmd the fence and landed just
short of the softball field Accord­
ing to spectator Cooff Holly (and
amateur home run tape-mea surer),
the shot went about '700 feet H
The 9-2 lead was more than

However, there is a problem.
An athlete could declare himself or
herself a full-time student by only
taldng two regular clas,SCS and the
'port In order to get tho~ twelve
credit hours during that term. I
have a very ssmple proposal that
would prevent that. Do not let tho5e cn.>dits be counted toward that

do count the credits toward gradu·

For example, il tennis player
