b1 Frem 'I1he groups' spaces-most of the main 0oor
of Templeton can be considered com­
munity ~ce for student5. After all, it
is where most student groups, Includ­
ing campus media, College Outdoors,
ASLC, etc. are concentrated. Ad.mm·
istrative offices are prunnrlly reserved
for other 0oors. As such, the space on
the mall\ floor should be of little con•
cem except to the students who occupy
al. LC footbal ~;
Though very little has bel:J' de­
cided for certrun regai:ding a
Templeton Decor Policy, we feel the
issue is Important enough to warrant
a campus dialogue on how to make
Templeton a more student•ori1mted
facility. We'd like to presen1 a few
ideas that might serve as a blu11print
to help make Templeton a more stu•
dent-oriented spare.
When the official name of the
building was changed last year from
"Templeton College Center" to
-T.empleton Student Center" an im­
portant ftrSt step was made in defin•
ing the purpose of lhl' building. Un­
fortunately, this seemed more. a sym­
bolic action than any real effort toward
a commitment. Even with the consoli­
dation of student groups in the middle
0oorofTempleton, a real sense or com•
munily has not yet emerged.
Templeton ,till retains its airport-like
look of uniformity, and it's impossible
for most student groups to feel com•
fortable and in control of their sur­
roundings unless they are gl ven free­
dom of decor.
'Two recent incidents bring up lhe
problems inherent in not having a
commitment to student rights in this
area. Last year, accord Ing to ASLC
President Cory Curtis, it was promised
that the ASLC offices could be painted
by the students residing In them. This
year, that promise has been rescinded.
This shows a propensity for the ad•
ministration to renege on 0th.er prom­
ises regarding student groups' control
over the working environment which
now surrounds them.
In another incident, Michael Ford
expressed con= over certam gra(­
fiti found in Kt.C's OJ booth. This Is
of particular concern given promises
made to KLC last year nbout au•
tonomy in decoratJon choice. Speclfi•
rally, KLC was told that the same de­
cor they had downstam; would be al•
lowed upstairs. Yet the territory sur·
rounding this prom15e being 11\lringed
on.
Whv is this so unfair? Sl>vcml ren•
son.<. n,..,t. the expressed purp= for I
moving student groups onto the o;ame
0oor was to create a sense of commu•
nity. Yet, the sense of community can­
not exist without a feeling that student
groups can control their own surround­
ings. A community dQCSn't come about
merely because groups are forced into
the same close proximity: it comes from
having a sense ol shared interest in tlhe
fate of that spae11. rr students aren't al­
lowed to control their community. tile
sense of a "student communityH is
robbed.
The second reason it's unfuir is be­
cause, KLC m particular, student groups
had Uttlesay in their relocation. DespUe
vociferous protest, including a huge pe­
tition and srudent poll which fuvo~ not
movi.ng KLC, the re.location was forced
through anyway. Student groups hawe
already been forced lo move: they
shouldn't be forced to ch.mge they way
they decorated their old surroundings as
wcll.
So what concrete solutions can we
work for to create a true sense of com•
munity? Here are just a few idea.s:
Templeton needs more student artwork
in visible places. A mural was promised
outside the Dubach dining room are:a.
However, such a mural ha.s yet to mabe­
rialize. Not just artwork, but bulletin
boards in multiple locations-the bland
grey walls leading the way to the Trail
Room. the outside of many student None of ~his can be assured,
though. until the ability of students to
detemune the look ofTempleton is n:...:­
ogni~. This Mtails galning assur,.
ance from the administration that the
right of students to d~ratc will not
be usurped. We need a Templeton
Decor Policy that officially reflects th.is
need.
We understand that the college
needs to also use Templeton to gene¥•
ate n~-ded money for the college by
renting space out lo oU campus users.
Sul will these proposed changes ad­
versely affect the college's ability to
keep renting out the spae11 to these us­
ers? Probably noL Shouldn't the col­
lege take that risk lo show its support
of the student community?

lout might have lo leave some business
unfinished for next year's council.
Shelby Urlt~ then described some of
!he problems the ASLC has had with the
idministrahon, and the strike they re­
tffltly threatened and called off. She
touched on the conflict between the
AStC Constitution and the Pathfinder

administration's response to the strike
lrut~L
Holman and Babier perked up at lntemationalStudent Reprerentati.ve on
the co1mcil, which led lo a brief, low-key
debate over that Issue, with the Truste<!S
offering suggestions when they could.
This was a somewhat uncomfortable
moment becawc of Its contrast lo the
meeting's otherwise bree-q tone.
The dinner, In Stamm West, was ca­
tered by Bon Appetlt, with ll\Sagna and
~,¼eluui.\'1>....,'ml\~~~""­
the cafeteria, but this time served on
china with linen napkins. The dinner
was attended by all the council mem­
bers, the two Trustees, Michael Ford,
Jane Atkinson and Evan Williams.
The ASLC counc:il spent most of
their hour-and-a-quarter meeting before
dinner going in a circle on the subject of
the planned referendum on election
methods for the ISLC council represen•
tatlve. As they had done in each of the
last three weeks, they ended by return­
ing the subject to a subcommittee lo de­
termine which parts of the ASLC Con­
stitution would n.eed to be changed and
draft the wording for the .re!e.rendurn.
Urltz reported that she had had one
meeting with Ford and Williams lo ne-,.
student voice. He said there used lobe a
•dean's coun.dl'' to Sl!rve a sunilar pur­
pose at LC many yeaisago, but that there
was now no established #rule of law" at
lhe school. He said the council could
propose a committee which would re­
view any major policy changes affecting
students, such as ones that changed
graduation requirements or cantractuaJ
~~·•-'•'1'>·
The council also discussed plans to
revise the constitution to streamline it
and move some "micromanagement"
aspects into bylaws, giving lhe council
more flexibility.
Nathan Hobbs said they were pri­
marily addressing problems with the
constitution's internal structure and
wordlng, in an effort to dean It up be­
fore ratification by the Board of Trust­
ees. Changes suggested by the ncgotial•
ing committee to correct conflkts with
the Pathfmder will be incorporated sepa­
rately. The council plans lo re tum to this
subject in next week's meeting.
Mall Cooper reported that plans to
install hlmpon machines ln Templeton
and the Pamplin sports center were pro-voting proce•
duTCS for the
ISLC representative. Th,s would allow
the conslitu lion lo be ratified by the
Board of Trustees in their February I 7
meeting; and any new voting rules cou Id
be used in the general election in Mard\.
Cory Curtis briclly addressed the
subject of protocol in council meetings.
He said that while all attendees may not
be best friends outside of meetings, they
~~-~w.~
other in them. He mentioned the blowup
with Student Advocacy Group represen­
tative Pin Gilgen the previous week, and
s.1id that many council members had felt
threatened by SAG, but things should
run more smoothly now that their rela­
tionships were more clearly defined.
Tracy Rodda said she had talked with
Gjfgen recently, and contrary lo appear•
ances, there were no harsh feelings be­
tween them.
Hobbs reported that the Peer Re­
view Boord would be he.iring two new
cases, one dealing with obscene grafJiti,
and the other dealing with a person who
fell o(f the library into the freshly spread

were gather..'<l from a vast ar­
ray of sources. Students had to
buy 11 textbooks for the fall sc­
m.estcr and 6 ror spring, and
these were supplemented by
two reading packets each se­
mester, madr up or a collection
or photocopies from other
books. This pile of books and
packets cost each student over
$250.
All that changed this yeat,
when Prof. Chana Cox, re­
sponding to complaints from
her 1A class, persuaded the
planning committee lo create
consolidated readers which in­
clude most of the required read•
ings. Based on student surveys,
the planning committee also
removed about a third of the
readings. This year's lAstudent
will buy a total or 8 books, cost•
ing S 175 or less, by the time the
school year ends.
To nvo,d copyright fees last
year, primary documents in the
reading packet~ were photocop·
led from books that were over
75 years old whenever possible.
Unfortunately, this meant the
copies were often made from
books that were in poor condi­
tion, and somebmes included
reproductions of the original
documents, complete with s's
\hat looked llke fs. When cre­
ating this year's t.extbooks, the
college was able to scan or re­
type the documents, producing
much more readable versions.
Most of the secondary
sources in the course are still
under copyright protection, so
the college had to pay8-1~ per
page for permission to photo­
copy them for last year's read•
ing packets. 1nis meant that the
packets were very expensive for
students and still cost the school
more than they charged for
them
To make matters worse,
copy right negoti.ations were
very slow and many of the ma•
terials couldn't be made avail•
able to students until late in the
semester. In addition, photo·
copy rights are granted on a
one-time basis, so the school
would have had to do the same
thing again year after year. By reprinting the text:. in a book,
the school was able to use roy·
alty agreements, which cost less
and can be renewed from edi­
tion to edition.
Curtis Johnson points out
other ad vantages o( the consoli­
dated readers: introductions
which provide historical con­
text for each author; wide mar­
glns where students can write
notes; large, readable type; a
table of contents; consistent
page numbering; a bound-in
syllabus and •a nice cover."

Cox brought in her son,)<>­
sept\, to do a large portion of the
work. A student of computer
science and the history of ideas
al the University o( Permsylva­
nia, he had previously put to­
gether several large-scale, con•
solidated manual~, primarily
for businesses. He saw the po­
tential for a consoUdatcd reader,
as well as a computerl1.ed cam·
pus-wade discussion and re­
search system based on elec­
tronic versions of the texts.
The Co><'s and membe~ of
the IA staff worked very h,,rd
to have the first textbook ready
in lime. They were under a
tight deadline, and had trouble
right up until the fast few days,
when certain essays consis­
tently caused their layout pro­
gram to crash.
Most faculty members
were on vacation or doing re­
search this summer, so the job
of ,-.riling introductions was
left to the few who remained on
campus.
Professor (){ History Jane
Hunter wrote most of the intro­
ductions, but she didn't takedi­
rect credU for them, because she
considered them compilations
rather than original works.
Chana Cox hopes faculty
members"' the appropriate de­
partments will write custom in­
troductions in future years,
which would help to tie the
readings more closely into the
course.
Most of the people in•
volved are glad to see the
project finished. New versions
of the textbooks should be
much easier lo produce in sub-

scaping manure outside. It
was thought possible that the
=ond person had gone to the
roof of the library in order to
smoke Illegal drugs. He was
reported not to be seriously in-
1ured by the fall.
The council also discussed
fmding an "on~ampUb male"
to sit on the contract release
committee; the recent higher
education forum on the issue of
Congressional cutbacks on stu­
dent aid; plans for a decor
policy in Templeton in older to
avoid the possibility of conllict
between KLC, the Pioneer Log
and Michael Ford's office; preparat;ons for the upcoming
International Affairs Sympo­
sium; an Idea or asking Tr:IMet
to eliminate the 39 bus route
and reroute the 43 to go past the
campus; having Campus Safety
improve theshutlle S<!tvice; the
possibility of a balloting syslem
using a combination of com•
puter-and paper-based meth•
ods; and the Drug &: Alcohol
Committee's recent discussions
of how to ha:ldle a recent mari­
juana incident at the Plattform,
how to deal with drinking at
tailgate parties and how stu•
dents are affected by the Board
of Trustees' drinking on cam·
pus. sequent years, since the text Is
now in a computerized formal
and the content won't change
much from year to year.
The Pall 1995 IA textbooks
cost $44.50 In the college book­
store. The price included about
S6 for the boo.kstore's standard
15% markup, approximately
$16 in copyright fees and about
$10 in paper costs. The remain•
ing S13 went to labor costs for
producing the book.
LA chair Cu-rtis Johnson
says the school is still very in­
terested in developing an online
version of the textbooks, which
students could search and
cross-reference interactively.
This plan is being hindered by
the fact that publishers are very
reluctant to grant copyright per·
missions in the sbll-devcloping
area of online reproduction.
However, many primary docu·
ments are already avail,1ble on
the school's World Wide Web
site.
The course continues to
evolve, and if students over•
whelmingly reject any particu­
lar readings on the end-of-term
evaluation surveys, the.re's a
good chance they'll be removed
from next year's l>dition.
Since the textbooks are
likely to b-e similar next year, it's
possible that the on-campus
bookstore wall be able lo buy
them back and resell them next
fall.
Tun Swain, the manager of
the bookstore.says he is willing to work on whatever terms the
IA office rc<:ommends, but he
can't do anything unless he
hears from them. If the book•
store gets the go-ahead, 11
buyback could happen at the
end of the spring term.
Curlis Johnson said he has
no objection to reusing the
books. The reading selections
might not be exactly the same
next year, but students could
make photocopies of the ones
they were missing. He de­
scribed the books as a first edi­
tion, rather than a dated publi·
cation. However, Johnson coun­
seled students to keep the books
as an importl'lnt part or their
personal library, unlikely to be
replaced at a later date.
The IA office didn't finalize
this year's syllabus until after
the last school year ended, and
they dropped most of the text­
books used last year. As a result,
last year's students could only
return their books to the book·
store at the prices offered for
textbooks intended for redistri­
bution 10 other bookstores, m­
ste.~d of at the higher prices of­
fered for books that will be re­
sold nt LC. Students couldn't re.
tum their reading packels at all
This year's students can
hope that the syllabus wiU
change less dramatically next
year, and that plans wUI be
settled early enough to allow
them to get the highest return
price for all their books.

BY Riv. MVUAY C1ZDH
ventured lo LA l.una
this past Friday with
such a m,xture or emo-
t ion, that l could
barely dis<.--em the nausea from
the excitement It was my first
Heavy Metal show-and it was
CWAR. As I waited outside the

to show up, I was
amuoo at the amount of
•mullet-heads" that had
ventured out or the
woodwork to see their
performance-art-metal
gods. This is Met~t, I
kepi tclling myself. This
JS Suburbia,
The show began
with a Texas "power­
sludgc" combo called
Brutil Juice. l was more
entertained by the lead
singer's facial contor­
tions than their music:. so
when th.cir thirty-minute
set ended, I wasn't bro­
ken-hearted in the least.
The second act. Neuro-
sis, definitely gave me
quite a shock. In a word~ry.
The only lights on these Dark
Knights of Death Chunk were
dark red and blue_ Behind
lhem, movie loops of a suicide
and slides ofbarbed wire added
the perfect ambiance for the
freru:1<1d crowd. l wish l could
have understood what Neuro­
sL, were "singing" about, but it
just sounded like cats (with re­
ally deep voices) being to(turcd
and killed. Unlike Bn1tnl Julee,
Neurosis' set lasted loo long.
and when 11 finally ended I re­
alized that there is some kind
of Higher Power out there.
As CWAR set up, the
crowd became so frenzied thnt
l was really afraid oboul what was going to happen when the
boys took the stage_ My fears
were confirmed when several
different mosh pits started all
about me-before the band
even came out.
Finally, CWAR-the
Scumdogs of the Universe­
emerged from the Slave PH and
took the stage. Lead singer
Oderus Urungus adjusted his
fourteen-inch phallus (com•
plete with eyes and antennae)
nnd yelled, .. You are all pathetic
and weak! But, we love you
anywny!" The music began,
and I was astounded at how
similar CWAR sounds lo Iron
Maiden, but J wasn't there for
(Cod forbid) music-I was
there for blood.
And that's what I got. Dur­
ing the first song, OJ Simpson
himself came out on stage, only
10 be decapitated and
sodomi1.ed by one or CWAR's
shwes/stage-hands. Theblood
that rained out of O}'s neck flew
nil over the audience (myself in-eluded) and raised a cheer that
both chilled and excited me.
This is death, this is blood--en­
joy it you p,gs!
CWAR did a couple more
songs, and Oderus asked lhe
aowd if they wanted more
blood and violence. The answer
was an intense "yes," soOderus
introduced the "rotting
corpse or Jerry Cai:cii\!I"
Ca,-c-.a's fate was similar
lo O)'s, but no sod•
omy-maybe next tune.
The show continued
with n weak plot that in­
cluded a comet c.,lled
"Ragnarok," an nllen ab­

"Cardinal Syn," and the

-.. When are lhe Beatles going to get back to­
gether?"
-"Tomorrow,"
-Unidentified man and (a joking) John Lennon,
New York 1980 from the documentary "Imagine: John
Lennon"
As some of you may know, Paul McCartney,
George Harrison and Ringo Starr (the surviving
Beatles), have gotten together for a reunion after 25
years of sepa.ration. l say surviving- sadly since the
tragic death of John Lennon in December o! 1980,
senselessly assassinated in New York City. Now, how­
ever, a new quieter form of Beatlemania is beginning
again. Every major magazine has done stories and
foatures about the three men. I (and pethaps other
Beatles fanatics as well) am finding myself in a dream­
like euphoria whenever they see the publicity regard­
ing the glorious return of a classic rock group. When
a Beatles £an Hnally sees a photos of thl' three aged
men standing together, after aU lhis time, It must be
(and it ls, I stress) a wonderful expenence. ABC ts
salivating over their acquired rights to the "Beatles
Anthology" (eaturing the new Beatles song "Free as
a Bird.'' uFree as a Bird" was originally written by
Lennon, and the three Beatles now wrapped their
music nnd new lyrics around the eMlil'r track of
Lennon singing solo.
1 consider the Beatles to be undoubtedly the great•
est band in the history of rock n' roll. I cannot th.ink
of another band with better song writing abilities, or
such a range of musical/rock styles. Some songs
("Helter Skeller") lean towards a hard rock sound;
other., are more in the romantic ballad style ("Por No
One"). The Beatles dedknted their careen. to discov­
ering rock variatJons. Others effecbvely delve (mu­
sically) anto the subjectsofbetraya.1. the mother/ch.ild
relationship, positive and negative aspects of love .
Naturally. my opinion will be challenged, as I know
people (actually some of my friends) who dOl\'t like
the Beatles' music. I cannot understand .my logical
basisbclund thclropinion, but I n«ept Ila~ thciropin·
Ion.
It Is strange that I and other or my generation
should create such an ardent attachment to d group
that was disbanded by the time most of us were born.
Neverthele:.:., by some marvelous tum of event~, I fell
In love witJ1 the Beatles by the time I was ten years
old, first hearing "Sgl Peppers Lonely Hearl$ Club
Band" when I wa.s six. and thinking 11 was one of the
most beautiful things I had ever heard.
My favorite Beatie? John leMon. He was one oi
the greatest arb.Stic and musical geniuses ever. His
musk (both solo and with the Beatles) and philoso­
phies of peace and love wUJ endure through the cen­
turies. I consider his death to be an enormous trag•
ed y, and I often fand myseU criticizing those who
speak of it so tritely and emotionlessly ("Lennon got
blown away") or even create jo.kes on the subject. I
do not like to think about John's assassination, how­
ever I do wish I could have been present at that huge
memorial gnthering in New York that trag,c day.
My least favorite Beatie? I don't actually II.we
one. I don't subscribe to ~Paul-bashing# as some ad­
mirers of the Beatles do. Nor do I enjoy making hm
of Ringo, saying he was the mearungless addition to
the Beatles. There are few aspects of the Beatles that I
don't appreciate. But those few are "biggies" Uohn's
meaningless murder, the ugly relationship of Paul and
John a £ew years after the break-up, the "Revolution
Jl9• track). Naturally, then the question appears:
would John want Paul, George, nnd Ringo to reunite,
and use hil> unfinished songs as material for another
album? Some Beatles fMS may think of ttus reunion
is blasphemy; lam so excited about theu reunion tha!
l have not h1ken time to think about any negative lm­
plkabons. Newsweek brought up the idea that this
new release of Beatles material could be S<->en as a new
beginning. but JUSI as easily can be seen as an end, a
grand finale. T like to thlnk oI it both ways. Student in Israel reflects ~':.1 ... ~ .. !.~s!!~~!~.~4

8 BY BINJAMIH E. MoUJSOH
n the afternoon of Monday,
October 30 l was flipping
through Monday's edition or
tilt \Vii/I Stmit foun111/ when I stumbled
an opinion article titled, "The
JDots of Black Poverty". As I read the
W! and centered caption which read,
1n.ill 500elies and in aU races monogn­
aous marriage is based on patriarchal
ie:, roles, with men the dominant pro­
ndtr. Welfare state feminism destroyed
Md families by rav• advantage. For Instance, Mr. Gilder
states that on average blaek women
outeam comparable white women, the
average black full-time worker outeams
the average white by 1%, and when fac•
toring In earnings or married men, black
men have a "dramatic edge in earnings
over white men.•
Mr. Gilder concludes that rather
than admitting this reality or racial har­
mony, he insists that, "the intelligentsia,
black and white, would rather pursue
fantasies of racial hatred.

In the socond hall of
the article Mr. Glider
shows his true colors: de-' .. programR ...

dues not exist and
ill! the ch,cf cause for black poverty is
"welfnrestate feminism" or "thlrtyyears
, alillinnative action programs that have
rlCially elevated black women Into
mi() power over black men.•
Mr. Gilder's evidence for the ab•
or white racism (which he believes
not existed since the late 1970s ac­
, g to his 1979 book, V,sib/e Man; A
Ttw SJvry of Post Racist AnU'rica) Is de•

Mr Gilder, has been the voluntary

o lttpl.xt. wh<!re Americans, uhave made

«onomicallyblacks are not ala dis--nouncing affirmative ac•
tion, mocking women's progress
through societal bnttiers, insulting Afri•
can American mothers, and hailing pa·
triarchal U\Stitutions.
Mr. Gilder believes that the "chief
cause of black poverty is welfare state
feminism," Ina.nutshell, this means that
for the past30 years the government has
been an artlfldal provider forblackfami•
lies thereby eliminating the need for
black males and elevating black women
into economic power over black men.
Perhaps the most despicable result of all
these benefits has been the fact that the
"regime• of "welfare state feminism•
has, "even ,nvaded such male bastions
as the cockpits of fighter planes, police
squad cars, fire stations, construction
sites and university athletic teams.»
Next comes Mr. Gilder's hailing of
palriarchal institutions. He first dispels
any myth that might allude to the ben·
eflts from matriarchal institutions. Upon
examination, according to Mr. Gilder,

In summntio11, Mr, Gilder warns us
of our disastrous efforts to "inculcate

Gilder worries about those of us Hwho
imagine that (we) can sustain a clvlliza•

monogamous sex roles."
My purpose m presenting this ar•
tlcle to the LC community is twofold,
This article appeared shortly after l
heard Dr. Come! West speak here on
campus. This article and its author have white su•
premacy• for
their current predicament. Given the
United States present swing of the po­
Utical pendulum, I, regretfully, have to
believe that this trend will only increase
in numbers and strength, hence the sec•
ond reason for writing this article.
Secondly, I intend lo write a re­
sponse ror the Wall Strrtt fo11rnal. I would
very much appreciate any suggestions
or arguments that might spur other
thoughts. My e-mail address is
Morrison@lc.edu. I would also encour­
age you to relrieve a copy of this article
(October 30, 1995} and write your own
response.

Poekoelan: self-defense to
the beat of a different drum
aYJOft MIJCH
0 he.sound of a dis­
tant drum beal
igniles a curiosity in
all of us. Imagine
hearing a single drum beat In
the distance combined with the
sounds of wild jungle animals.
The laughing cry of a monkey,
the hiss of a snake, the roar or a
hger, and the flopping wing,, of
one hundred cranes laking
flight. It's hard for anyone 10
~isl wanting to seek out this
single drum which Slands Olli
against all of these other un­
tamed noises.

lege, whai people discover
when they finally reach 1he
drum that's emitting this single
beat ls one or LC's mosl inter­
esling elecUves, Poekoelan
Tjmmd1e Tulen. From lhe
jungles of Indonesia to the mat
room in Pamplin Sports Center,
the sound of Poekoelan is the
same. I have lrained this beau•
liful martial art for almost thr.ee
years now and know the sound
well.
Poekoelan ls a very real and
very rare martial art from lndo-nesia. Portland is one of lhe few
places in lhe world Ll)al
Poekoelan can be trained. I feel
very luc.ky 10 have discovered
lhis incredible art and I give
Lewis and ClnT'k a lot or credit
for inlroducing me to ii. I value
Poekoelan as an integral part of movements so fluid and
graceful th.al onlookers some­
times fail lo take notice of the
numerous strikes being ex•
ecuted. My teacher once said,
"Poekoelan is like a rose. It is
" beautiful Uung lo look al,
but you can't grab U by the
"Poekoelan is like a rose.
It is a beautiful thjng to
look at, but you can't grab
it by the stem without
getting cut by its sharp
thorns."
my education al LC.
Many spectalors of this art
are £irst enticed by the drum
beat, but when they reach the
training hall from which that
sound is roming, they are much
more entranced by the dexter•
ous human movements. To the
beat of the drum, Poekoelan
practitioners often appear more
like dancers than lighters with stem willhoul
gelling cut by !Is sharp
t.homs.H
The beginning Poekoelan
class LC offers every semes­
ter ls for male and female slu·
dents of all fitness levels. The
class focuses on realistic self­
defense against common
street attacks. Students can
expect to achieve improved strength, agility, fleX1bility and
endurance. You can al.so expect
to develop practical physical and
verbal self-defense skills. Each
cbss lasts approximately an hour
and a half and always proves 1.0
be a truly gral!fying work-out.
Remember during pre--regis•
tration that the day class is set up
mainly for beginners while the
night class IS for returning stu­
denls with rank. However, if you
are a beginner and the day class
ls at an inconven1enl time, it's
okay to sign up for the night class.
The Poekoelan class offered
