LC lllldants Vllb:h hlltory II I •111a In Ec-dOP
By Mallhias Fripp
Members or the Lewis & Clark overse.is program in
Ecuador watched history unfold la.st mon1h, as national civic
protests led to the ouster or Ecuador's president and an un•
certain C0ntcsl for succession.
Abdala Bucaram was elected president or Ecuador last
yc3I ns u champion or the poor. He prided himself on his
rcputnlion ns "el loco," and was Camous for such pranks as
recording a rock CD called "A Crazy Man Who Loves,"
and inviting notorious Ecuadorian Lorena Bobbiu to the
na1ional pnlnce. His reputation took a darker turn later in
the year as his stringent austerity measures cut to 1he bone
of the Ecuadorian people.
In January and February, soon after 1he LC group ar
rived in lhe mounl3in cily of Cuenca. popular opposition 10
lhe presidenl turned into public protest, leading toa univer
sal work stoppage and massive peaceCul protests on Febru•
ary 5. News reports indicated that 2.2 million or Ecuador's
10 million people were in ihe streets. including 100.000 or
1hc 300,000 residents or Cuenca.
Wi1hin • few days, the Ecuadorian congress voled 10
remove Bucaram as president. but the country's vague con•
s1itution had no provision for succession. Congress and the
\•ice president muneuvered for several days over who should
succeed Bucaram, cven1ually agreeing 10 make the head or
congress the presidenl of the country, with the mili1ary's
silent approval.
Clay1on Morg3rcidgc, 1hc proCcssor leading lhe LC
group in Ecuador, reports that ~,c strike on February 5 wru; on a scale unmatched by earlier strikes in Ecuador. ''111is is
the first lime when every imponan1 sector, from business
10 labor to 1ranspor1aiion and educa1ion have agreed !hat the
government is so impossible 10 live with thal they are all
going out on strike and will be demonstrating in the streets
and plaza,;," he wrote in no1cs faxed 10 the Pioneer Lbg this
week, after his group returned from a rainforesl 1rip.
On that morning, members or 1hc LC group found all
nonnal commerce and ac1ivi1y in Cuenca had stopped, re
placed by a steady s1ream of people of all occupations and
social classes m:irching 10 !he Parque Cladcron, 1he main
town squ3IC.
Laurn Benson. an LC sophomore, wrote tha1 she and
her host family joined 1he march and stood on lhe edge of
the square. abouI 1wo blocks from !heir apartment There,
lhey watched a rally featuring speakers from diverse social
groups and lo1s or Oag waving. "Miliiary helicop1ers would
occasionally ny over 10 which 1he crowd reacted by yelling
and waving their nags," Benson writes.
At 1hc end oCthc evening, Benson wrote, "All is quie1
now and ii seems incredible. Rama laments 1hat !here is a
lot or hate in Ihis country. True, for every country. But I
find ii amazing, and encouraging for my idealistic spirit
and pessimistic intellect lhat lhe action seems 10 have gone
so well, rela1ively peacefully. II can be possible for the
people 10 uni1c, agree, and practice peacefukpolitics." ,,
The next day, af1er congress ousted Bucaram, Benson
wrote, "People were absolutely high! Plags, smiles. chant
after celebroiory chant, applause. cars run of happy people circling the square.jumping (literally) for joy .. ,. An over•
whelming joy of victory-instinc1ual smiles."
Morgareidge saw linle sign of danger for lhc s1udcn1s:
·•1 kepi my eyes out for police or 'dangerous elements.' bu1
saw only ordinary people, rncn and women, young and old.
rich and po<Jr, peasant and urban."
Morgareidgc wrote abou1 the importance or Ihe pro-
1es1s and 1hc cons1itutional crisis in &:uadori:m history:
''11,is mus1 seem like a 1empes1 in a teapol from where you
are, bu1 it's major history from here. , .. The constitution
does give the congress the right 10 declare n prcsidcnl unfit,
but not to name a new, or temporary. one. So the Bucan:un
supporters are s1rcssing 1he latter, while opponents stress
lhe former."
Morgarcidgc was dis1urbed by the constantly looming
presence of the 111ili1ary. and the fact 1ha1. though they s1ayed
out oCthe con0ic1, their approval determined the final out•
come. "This whole experience could be laken as an object
lesson aboul 1he value or an adequate consti1u1ion and the
willingness 10 follow ii. Otherwise the decision inevitably
foils upon those who control the means of violence."
"On lhe other hand," Morgarcidgc writes. "wha1 seems
positive abou1 Ecuador is 1haI the voice or the people. di•
rectly expressed (2.2 million in 1he s1reeIs). is playing a
major role, one not formally recognized, or recognizable.
by 1he written constitu1ion, bu1 which is constantly referred
with respect 10 by lhe press and by the mos1 distinguished
politicians. The whole question or how to involve the people
more directly in lhc state seems 10 me fu11damen1al."

¥oalng lhr•ah Iha Rosa Gardin wllh Iha TrallllamPs f By David Kolek
AfIe, living here fora yearnnd a half. Tfinally experi
enced my first ••~le of professional basketball Portland
~ylc. This past Wednesday night I veniured across die
Willamene river 10 the Rose Garden 10 watch the Portland
Trailblazers 1ake on the New York Knicks. And from the
ll)OmenI I stepped off the Tri-Mel Max into the brisk
evening. iL fell strange.
l have lived most of my life in Los Angeles, and thus I
h:l\'e come to associme certain tradi1ions with a 1rip to tan
NBA game. My first cxpcc1aiion is a two hourcarridc
on snarled L.A freeways. fearing for my life 01 ev
ery interchange. To gel 10 lhe Rose Garden all I
had Iodo was employ the timely service ofTri
)1c1 directly from Palatine Hill all the way
,cro-<S the river. I was disappointed that I
didn'I have even one momentary brush with
dmh the entire journey.
Assuming you survive the journey 10 the
Great Western Forum, where the L.A. Laker,:
play their games. you find yourself in the type
or neighborhood IhaI has gained L.A. world•
wide notoriety and nppeal during the past few
i<ars and civil unrest. Qui1c the contrary. Ihe Rose Garden
,nd the surrounding Rose Quarter, which were built just
two years ago, seem ns they were constructed and operated
by Wah Disney himself.
Yet. despite these marked differences of environmcni,
I was de1crrnined to give Ponland bnsketball n chance. I
left m)• preconceived notions behind me and proceeded into
l,e Rose Garden.
Although I have yet to climb majestic ML HO<Jd dur
ing my stay here in Portland, I believe I may have ascended
iearly as high as IhnI peak while I made my way 10 my
"cheap'' $18 seat in the highest concourse in the building.
~ow I was beginning to feel more at home! I am used 10
!'!Ying ridiculous prices for the "honor· of sining in the
worst scats in the building back in Los Angeles. lf there is
, "universal truth," iI is 1haI NBA action isn't free any•
•iiere. Michael Jordon could be playing in Inner Mongolia
ir Outer Siberia, and good tickets would still cost $50.
The game was nol set to start for about forty minutes,
IO I decided to gel something 10 cat. This turned out to be
lit biggc.st mistake of the evening. If you ever go to a
Blazer game with the inIenIion of buying food, don't foll
ricJim 10 the "Slam Dunk Deal". The combination men.I
deal of a cheeseburger. French fries, and • small drink
iounded irresistible 10 my growling stomach. Then I Iook
""'bite of the charcoal burger. coupled with a slimy French
i)'and felt a deep longing in my soul for the simple things
m Hre such as Bread City and The Wrapper. both available
m Fields Dining Hall.
Just after I choked down the last awful bile of cheese-burger, both teams look the floor and began 10 warrn up ror
the game. Soon after, the starting lineup for the Knicks
was announced in a subdued man ncr . Then the lights
went out and all hell broke loose. Loud, pulsating music,
married with an elaborate laser lighl show. welcomed the
triumphant Blazer starting lineup onto the coun.
My uneasiness regarding Portland basketball grew as
I watched this team, playing barely above .500. receiving a
heroic and ego-boosting welcome onto the court. n,c World
Champion Chicago Bulls can get awny with that kind of
gratuitous display bccause,quiIc frankly. they
have got the tools 10 back it up. The Blazers.
on the other hnnd, have players like Clifford
Robinson and J.R. Rider in their starting lineup.
Al that mome11I r ~onestly felt sorry ror Ihc
wildly.cheering fans in the packed Garden be
cnuse Iheir faithful devotion should hove been
reserved for more deserving players than those
wearing ,he Blazer uniforms.
This si1uution did not improve when die
lights came back on. The Rose Carden crowd
was tresIed to the worst performance of The Star
S1m11glcd Ba1111er I hnve ever heard in all my years of
aucnding professional sporting events. The female singer,
recently signed 10 a recording label owned by one or the
Trailblazer players, sang off key, off melody and out of
control in front or her new boss.
I couldn't carry a tune in a buckcl, but 1 ·may have
been able 10 do bener than she did on this particular night.
People seated near me were blaIanIly laughing at her mis
fortune as she belted 001 the final few lines of,if\e patriotic
ballad. mndomly distributed pieces of cheese while 20.000 other
mis look on laughing and cheering nl 1his roor, exploited
rat in 1h1> cage. If you are keeping score nt home. she did
collect $300 in gil'I certificmcs before it all come 10 u mer
ciful close.
Onto the second half of basketball ac1ion.1l1e Blazers
came out in the second half and nearly blew Ihc Knicks ouI
of Ihc building. The raucous Blazer fans watched their
learn outscore the Knicks by nn incredible 27-5 margin in
the third qu:1rIcr. During the inIcrn1ission before the final
12 minute period was sci 10 begin, I heard several nearby
fans declaring thal the game wa.,..; .. over:·
The Blazers apparently shared Ih:11scnIimcnI, because
they decided noI 10 play defense in the founh qua.rte,.
Within six minutes the game was 1icd. and those same fons
couldn't understand what had happened. Tiie g•mc even•
tunlly went into overtime, and Ihc Knie ks narrowly defeated
the Bla,.crs by u final score or 96-95.
For the first place Knicks it was just another win on a
wesI coast road trip. Bui for the inconsistent Tmilblazcrs
and their fans, iI was anoI.he.rpainful dcfc:u thal easily could
hnve been a victory.
I am not neither a Knicks fan nor n Blazers fan. Hon
estly, I couldn't care less nbouI the fate of cidier Ic:un. I
am. however. a fan of the game of basketball, and both
teams put on a great display of Ihc game for the Garden
crowd thnt nighl. II didn't matter whose side you were on.
ii was just satisfying 10 watch talented athletes reach nnd
improve upon their natural poIenIial.
I exited the cozy confines of Ihc Rose Garden into Ihe
damp Portland evening feeling more confidcnl about bas
The game started mo
ments later, and that was
when I remembered how
great NBA action can be in
any one location. The
Knicks, led by Ihc ,•cIcran
Q~wgetown alum Patrick
Ewing, came out s,rong in
the early going only be to My uneasiness regarding Portland
basketball grew as I watched this
team, playing barely above .500, ketball here in Rip CiIy. I
realized Ihat people ap

game. matched basket for bnskeI by the young Trailblazer team
ns the lirsI half wore on. The Knicks held a slight advan
tage when the learns went into the locker rooms for Ihe
halftime break.
During hair time I watched a sixty year-old women
gallop around the coun in a promotional conIesI for Pay
Less Drugstore. ParachulC-'\ were dropped from the ceiling
in different places and varying speeds. and for every air
borne parachute thaI she collected, she received a$ I 00 gift

To get an idea or what this looked like, try 10 imagine
a confused laboratory rat being coaxed around a cage by As the excitement of the game faded nnd I boarded
the Max for Ihe return trip 10 Palatine Hill. I entertained
one final enlightening thought: A fan from Portland, aI
Iending a game down in Los Angeles. might find certain
intricacies related 10 L.A. style NBA actionjusI as strange
as those I observed in the Rose Garden.
Come to think of ii, that ·same person from Portland

by Kala Boyce Williams shared her own s1ories 10 illus1m1e how an

especially on how arl enables people to meet the ''Cyclops"
in their lives. "This evening," she said, "I'm going 10 ex
plore how ari in the form of words has armed rne against
these threats ... Kris1i Williams, an English professor and a member of
academic advising, gave 1he Ln.<1 Lcc1ure of her life on

would ii be her last leclure. ii would also be her rirst. The first Cyclops she explored was !hat of racism. She
shared her experiences in Tennessee in the summer of 1964.
She was helping 10 teach a summer progra,n at a black col
lege in Meinphis. "None of us had ever been the Sou1h
before. It thus came as a shock 10 our na.ive and idealistic
beliefs to encounter the impenetrable haired and fear be
hind 1he segrcga1ed restaurants, res1rooms, and swimming

come," sung by Mahalia Jackson, 10 demonstr,ue 10 the
audience how art can help comba1 lhe feelings of despair
that racism creates. As Williams s1aned her lecture. a s1uden1 closed 1he
lounge doors. In a daily class si1ua1ion, closing doors can
lock lhe students into classroom discussion while the world
goes by wi1hou1 1hcm. Closing the doors of the Odell
lounge, however, created an air of intimacy and comfon
ablc comrnunily be1wecn the packed lounge and Williams.
She began by admining 1hn1 when Junior Tanya King
asked her to do a las1 lecture, she was 001 sure 1ha1 she
should. "Why would I give a lecture if I didn't have any•
lhing to say?" she asked. She discovered, however, 1hnt
she did have sornetliing 10 say, somc1hing which was clearly
mc:mingful 10 the affcc1iona1e s1udents who hugged and
congra1ula1cd her when she finished her firs1 and final lec
ture. She went on to talk abou1 her grief over her father's
death and how panicular works of ari brought her solace.
Williams believes tha1 pan of lhe way ar1 helps us 10 mee1
1hesc "Cyclops" is by creating relationships between one
and communi1y tl1rough shared experience. "Ari enables
us to bring our unique perspectives. his1ories. selves, in10 a
relniionship with another unique self and within 1he differ
ences 10 discover commonali1y, to reaffirm community."
Williams said. Her lecture cen1cred around the quote lha1 was on post
ers a.II over campus before her talk. "To serve any disci
pline of ari is to aflimi meaning, despi1e all 1he ambigui1ies
and tragedies and misundcrs1andings which surround us"

A couple dozen students gathered in Watzek
Library's Pamplin Society Room 1he evening or
February 25 10 mce1 wi1h Erik Sten. the second
speaker In the monlhly "Mentors for Leadership"
series.
Sten is the Ponland City Council's younges1
Commissioner. He has amassed uncommon cxpc•
riencc in loc:il government for a 29-ycar-old. This
is not surprising, tonsiduring his p,~~si11natCc belief
that "we need young people in there. We're closer
10 the issues. we need 10 innuericc 1hc policies."
Within a minule or 1wo of starting his infomml 1alk,
h.: bemoaned 1hai "one lcri1ical] thing going wrong
with our socic,y is its passivity."
s,cn's prcscn1 1our in public life stems from
his role as :, native (havlng returned from an un
dergraduate education al Stanford University) who
feels a rcsp<>nsibility 10 help Portland main1ain and
improve its quality of lifo. Seeking a position in
journalism hul encoun1cring closed doors. he capi•
tnli1.cd on his experience a."i an intern with the mu
nicipal govemmcnl of Washing1on, DC.
Sten ncccptcd an offer for a paying posi1ion
on Gretchen Kafoury's campaign for Cily Com
missioner, subscquen1ly joining her s1aff. He ,e .•
ferrcd 10 that experience :LS his "best job so far,
working half the time in consti1uent outreach, di
rectly with 1he people, and the other half on fomiu
la1ing housing policy.'' .. •..
:,bout how he deals wi1h his personal politics ver
sus public poli1ics. Sten said. "I have 10 factor in
community vnlues and detcnninc what's reasonable
to ask n citii.en 10 do. In our form of city govc.rn•
menl. you arc a manager of certain systems: you
have 10 temper your own political philosophy."
On 1hc other hand, he siressed the imponancc
of being innova1ive ... If you're going 10 be in these
jnbs I dealing wi1h civic issues], you've got I<) pro

10:,;peaking as n "mentor for leadership." Sten sum
rnarir.ed lha1 leadership emerges from "learning (in
dcptl1 nbou1 issues of imponancc to you), giving
infom1ed inpu~ and being active!"
S1en's newest siaff member is Serena Cruz, an
LC nlumno wi1h a BA in Political Science: a
mas1er's in public policy from 1he Kennedy Sch(>0I
of Govcrnmcn1 01,.,fforvard; a JD from UC
Berkeley's Boal! School of Law: and member of
'the Oregon State Bar.
Tiiis month ·s speaker in 1he "Mentors for Lead
ership" series is Gale Caslillo, recipicnl of 1he 19'J4
Hero's Award of the Oregon Women's Political Cau
cus. She is also the owner of a consulling firm that
provides 1echnical assis1ancc 10 minori1y and
worn cn,owned businesses. and a civic leader as a
Commis.~ioner for the Ponland Development Com
mission and vice-president of both the Hispanic
Mctropoli1an Chamber of Commerce and 1he Or
egon Human Development Corporation. Her talk
is scheduled for Wednesday. March 261h al 7 pm in
Watzck Library's Pamplin Society Room. She also spoke about 1he more general problem of si
lencing voices, especially feminine voice.< and desires. Sh<
addressed 1he typical dicho1omization of women into ci-
1her the Virgin Mary or 1he whore-like, seduc1ress Eve. Al
the end of her lec1ure she had everyone in 1he room read
one line apiece from the poem "She Had Some Horses," by
Joy Harjo. The poem is line aflcr line of descriptions oftbc
horses: "She had horses who were bodies of sand." In each
line, however, the horses have differen1 characteristics.
Williams used this poem n.~ an example of how an can
coun1er accep1ed societal nomis. such as 1he silencing ol
women's voices and their re,duction to whores or virgins.
"Harj<> is countering the Siren song 1ha1 tempts women 10
be lhe angel with a song that ma11er-of-fac1ly acknowledges
the mulliplicily of selves. the 'herds of horses' wilhin each
of us," Williams said.
As each person read a different line from 1he poem, as
all voices were heard. proclaiming the veracity of mulli
plici1y and great variely, Williams· staled belief in thcpowci
of ari echoed silently in lhe lounge.
Williams shared more 1han a philosophy about 1bc
power of art in our lives: she shared her own experien<C$
and personal beliefs. Sophomore Li1.a Smith thanked Wil•
Iiams for opening up to the audience of studen1s. ".I appre
ciate ii so much when you professors share more wilh us.•

LC lllldants Vllb:h hlltory II I •111a In Ec-dOP
By Mallhias Fripp
Members or the Lewis & Clark overse.is program in
Ecuador watched history unfold la.st mon1h, as national civic
protests led to the ouster or Ecuador's president and an un•
certain C0ntcsl for succession.
Abdala Bucaram was elected president or Ecuador last
yc3I ns u champion or the poor. He prided himself on his
rcputnlion ns "el loco," and was Camous for such pranks as
recording a rock CD called "A Crazy Man Who Loves,"
and inviting notorious Ecuadorian Lorena Bobbiu to the
na1ional pnlnce. His reputation took a darker turn later in
the year as his stringent austerity measures cut to 1he bone
of the Ecuadorian people.
In January and February, soon after 1he LC group ar
rived in lhe mounl3in cily of Cuenca. popular opposition 10
lhe presidenl turned into public protest, leading toa univer
sal work stoppage and massive peaceCul protests on Febru•
ary 5. News reports indicated that 2.2 million or Ecuador's
10 million people were in ihe streets. including 100.000 or
1hc 300,000 residents or Cuenca.
Wi1hin • few days, the Ecuadorian congress voled 10
remove Bucaram as president. but the country's vague con•
s1itution had no provision for succession. Congress and the
\•ice president muneuvered for several days over who should
succeed Bucaram, cven1ually agreeing 10 make the head or
congress the presidenl of the country, with the mili1ary's
silent approval.
Clay1on Morg3rcidgc, 1hc proCcssor leading lhe LC
group in Ecuador, reports that ~,c strike on February 5 wru; on a scale unmatched by earlier strikes in Ecuador. ''111is is
the first lime when every imponan1 sector, from business
10 labor to 1ranspor1aiion and educa1ion have agreed !hat the
government is so impossible 10 live with thal they are all
going out on strike and will be demonstrating in the streets
and plaza,;," he wrote in no1cs faxed 10 the Pioneer Lbg this
week, after his group returned from a rainforesl 1rip.
On that morning, members or 1hc LC group found all
nonnal commerce and ac1ivi1y in Cuenca had stopped, re
placed by a steady s1ream of people of all occupations and
social classes m:irching 10 !he Parque Cladcron, 1he main
town squ3IC.
Laurn Benson. an LC sophomore, wrote tha1 she and
her host family joined 1he march and stood on lhe edge of
the square. abouI 1wo blocks from !heir apartment There,
lhey watched a rally featuring speakers from diverse social
groups and lo1s or Oag waving. "Miliiary helicop1ers would
occasionally ny over 10 which 1he crowd reacted by yelling
and waving their nags," Benson writes.
At 1hc end oCthc evening, Benson wrote, "All is quie1
now and ii seems incredible. Rama laments 1hat !here is a
lot or hate in Ihis country. True, for every country. But I
find ii amazing, and encouraging for my idealistic spirit
and pessimistic intellect lhat lhe action seems 10 have gone
so well, rela1ively peacefully. II can be possible for the
people 10 uni1c, agree, and practice peacefukpolitics." ,,
The next day, af1er congress ousted Bucaram, Benson
wrote, "People were absolutely high! Plags, smiles. chant
after celebroiory chant, applause. cars run of happy people circling the square.jumping (literally) for joy .. ,. An over•
whelming joy of victory-instinc1ual smiles."
Morgareidge saw linle sign of danger for lhc s1udcn1s:
·•1 kepi my eyes out for police or 'dangerous elements.' bu1
saw only ordinary people, rncn and women, young and old.
rich and po<Jr, peasant and urban."
Morgareidgc wrote abou1 the importance or Ihe pro-
1es1s and 1hc cons1itutional crisis in &:uadori:m history:
''11,is mus1 seem like a 1empes1 in a teapol from where you
are, bu1 it's major history from here. , .. The constitution
does give the congress the right 10 declare n prcsidcnl unfit,
but not to name a new, or temporary. one. So the Bucan:un
supporters are s1rcssing 1he latter, while opponents stress
lhe former."
Morgarcidgc was dis1urbed by the constantly looming
presence of the 111ili1ary. and the fact 1ha1. though they s1ayed
out oCthe con0ic1, their approval determined the final out•
come. "This whole experience could be laken as an object
lesson aboul 1he value or an adequate consti1u1ion and the
willingness 10 follow ii. Otherwise the decision inevitably
foils upon those who control the means of violence."
"On lhe other hand," Morgarcidgc writes. "wha1 seems
positive abou1 Ecuador is 1haI the voice or the people. di•
rectly expressed (2.2 million in 1he s1reeIs). is playing a
major role, one not formally recognized, or recognizable.
by 1he written constitu1ion, bu1 which is constantly referred
with respect 10 by lhe press and by the mos1 distinguished
politicians. The whole question or how to involve the people

¥oalng lhr•ah Iha Rosa Gardin wllh Iha TrallllamPs f By David Kolek
AfIe, living here fora yearnnd a half. Tfinally experi
enced my first ••~le of professional basketball Portland
~ylc. This past Wednesday night I veniured across die
Willamene river 10 the Rose Garden 10 watch the Portland
Trailblazers 1ake on the New York Knicks. And from the
ll)OmenI I stepped off the Tri-Mel Max into the brisk
evening. iL fell strange.
l have lived most of my life in Los Angeles, and thus I
h:l\'e come to associme certain tradi1ions with a 1rip to tan
NBA game. My first cxpcc1aiion is a two hourcarridc
on snarled L.A freeways. fearing for my life 01 ev
ery interchange. To gel 10 lhe Rose Garden all I
had Iodo was employ the timely service ofTri
)1c1 directly from Palatine Hill all the way
,cro-<S the river. I was disappointed that I
didn'I have even one momentary brush with
dmh the entire journey.
Assuming you survive the journey 10 the
Great Western Forum, where the L.A. Laker,:
play their games. you find yourself in the type
or neighborhood IhaI has gained L.A. world•
wide notoriety and nppeal during the past few
i<ars and civil unrest. Qui1c the contrary. Ihe Rose Garden
,nd the surrounding Rose Quarter, which were built just
two years ago, seem ns they were constructed and operated
by Wah Disney himself.
Yet. despite these marked differences of environmcni,
I was de1crrnined to give Ponland bnsketball n chance. I
left m)• preconceived notions behind me and proceeded into
l,e Rose Garden.
Although I have yet to climb majestic ML HO<Jd dur
ing my stay here in Portland, I believe I may have ascended
iearly as high as IhnI peak while I made my way 10 my
"cheap'' $18 seat in the highest concourse in the building.
~ow I was beginning to feel more at home! I am used 10
!'!Ying ridiculous prices for the "honor· of sining in the
worst scats in the building back in Los Angeles. lf there is
, "universal truth," iI is 1haI NBA action isn't free any•
•iiere. Michael Jordon could be playing in Inner Mongolia
ir Outer Siberia, and good tickets would still cost $50.
The game was nol set to start for about forty minutes,
IO I decided to gel something 10 cat. This turned out to be
lit biggc.st mistake of the evening. If you ever go to a
Blazer game with the inIenIion of buying food, don't foll
ricJim 10 the "Slam Dunk Deal". The combination men.I
deal of a cheeseburger. French fries, and • small drink
iounded irresistible 10 my growling stomach. Then I Iook
""'bite of the charcoal burger. coupled with a slimy French
i)'and felt a deep longing in my soul for the simple things
m Hre such as Bread City and The Wrapper. both available
m Fields Dining Hall.
Just after I choked down the last awful bile of cheese-burger, both teams look the floor and began 10 warrn up ror
the game. Soon after, the starting lineup for the Knicks
was announced in a subdued man ncr . Then the lights
went out and all hell broke loose. Loud, pulsating music,
married with an elaborate laser lighl show. welcomed the
triumphant Blazer starting lineup onto the coun.
My uneasiness regarding Portland basketball grew as
I watched this team, playing barely above .500. receiving a
heroic and ego-boosting welcome onto the court. n,c World
Champion Chicago Bulls can get awny with that kind of
gratuitous display bccause,quiIc frankly. they
have got the tools 10 back it up. The Blazers.
on the other hnnd, have players like Clifford
Robinson and J.R. Rider in their starting lineup.
Al that mome11I r ~onestly felt sorry ror Ihc
wildly.cheering fans in the packed Garden be
cnuse Iheir faithful devotion should hove been
reserved for more deserving players than those
wearing ,he Blazer uniforms.
This si1uution did not improve when die
lights came back on. The Rose Carden crowd
was tresIed to the worst performance of The Star
S1m11glcd Ba1111er I hnve ever heard in all my years of
aucnding professional sporting events. The female singer,
recently signed 10 a recording label owned by one or the
Trailblazer players, sang off key, off melody and out of
control in front or her new boss.
I couldn't carry a tune in a buckcl, but 1 ·may have
been able 10 do bener than she did on this particular night.
People seated near me were blaIanIly laughing at her mis
fortune as she belted 001 the final few lines of,if\e patriotic
ballad. mndomly distributed pieces of cheese while 20.000 other
mis look on laughing and cheering nl 1his roor, exploited
rat in 1h1> cage. If you are keeping score nt home. she did
collect $300 in gil'I certificmcs before it all come 10 u mer
ciful close.
Onto the second half of basketball ac1ion.1l1e Blazers
came out in the second half and nearly blew Ihc Knicks ouI
of Ihc building. The raucous Blazer fans watched their
learn outscore the Knicks by nn incredible 27-5 margin in
the third qu:1rIcr. During the inIcrn1ission before the final
12 minute period was sci 10 begin, I heard several nearby
fans declaring thal the game wa.,..; .. over:·
The Blazers apparently shared Ih:11scnIimcnI, because
they decided noI 10 play defense in the founh qua.rte,.
Within six minutes the game was 1icd. and those same fons
couldn't understand what had happened. Tiie g•mc even•
tunlly went into overtime, and Ihc Knie ks narrowly defeated
the Bla,.crs by u final score or 96-95.
For the first place Knicks it was just another win on a
wesI coast road trip. Bui for the inconsistent Tmilblazcrs
and their fans, iI was anoI.he.rpainful dcfc:u thal easily could
hnve been a victory.
I am not neither a Knicks fan nor n Blazers fan. Hon
estly, I couldn't care less nbouI the fate of cidier Ic:un. I
am. however. a fan of the game of basketball, and both
teams put on a great display of Ihc game for the Garden
crowd thnt nighl. II didn't matter whose side you were on.
ii was just satisfying 10 watch talented athletes reach nnd
improve upon their natural poIenIial.
I exited the cozy confines of Ihc Rose Garden into Ihe
damp Portland evening feeling more confidcnl about bas
The game started mo
ments later, and that was
when I remembered how
great NBA action can be in
any one location. The

halftime break.
During hair time I watched a sixty year-old women
gallop around the coun in a promotional conIesI for Pay
Less Drugstore. ParachulC-'\ were dropped from the ceiling
in different places and varying speeds. and for every air

the Max for Ihe return trip 10 Palatine Hill. I entertained
one final enlightening thought: A fan from Portland, aI
Iending a game down in Los Angeles. might find certain
intricacies related 10 L.A. style NBA actionjusI as strange
as those I observed in the Rose Garden.

especially on how arl enables people to meet the ''Cyclops"
in their lives. "This evening," she said, "I'm going 10 ex

would ii be her last leclure. ii would also be her rirst. The first Cyclops she explored was !hat of racism. She
shared her experiences in Tennessee in the summer of 1964.
She was helping 10 teach a summer progra,n at a black col
lege in Meinphis. "None of us had ever been the Sou1h
before. It thus came as a shock 10 our na.ive and idealistic
beliefs to encounter the impenetrable haired and fear be
hind 1he segrcga1ed restaurants, res1rooms, and swimming
p<)()ls.'' Williams said. She played 1he song "We Shall Over•
come," sung by Mahalia Jackson, 10 demonstr,ue 10 the
audience how art can help comba1 lhe feelings of despair
that racism creates. As Williams s1aned her lecture. a s1uden1 closed 1he
lounge doors. In a daily class si1ua1ion, closing doors can
lock lhe students into classroom discussion while the world
goes by wi1hou1 1hcm. Closing the doors of the Odell
lounge, however, created an air of intimacy and comfon

She began by admining 1hn1 when Junior Tanya King
asked her to do a las1 lecture, she was 001 sure 1ha1 she
should. "Why would I give a lecture if I didn't have any•
lhing to say?" she asked. She discovered, however, 1hnt
she did have sornetliing 10 say, somc1hing which was clearly
mc:mingful 10 the affcc1iona1e s1udents who hugged and
congra1ula1cd her when she finished her firs1 and final lec
ture. She went on to talk abou1 her grief over her father's
death and how panicular works of ari brought her solace.
Williams believes tha1 pan of lhe way ar1 helps us 10 mee1
1hesc "Cyclops" is by creating relationships between one
and communi1y tl1rough shared experience. "Ari enables
us to bring our unique perspectives. his1ories. selves, in10 a
relniionship with another unique self and within 1he differ
ences 10 discover commonali1y, to reaffirm community."
Williams said. Her lecture cen1cred around the quote lha1 was on post
ers a.II over campus before her talk. "To serve any disci
pline of ari is to aflimi meaning, despi1e all 1he ambigui1ies
and tragedies and misundcrs1andings which surround us"

A couple dozen students gathered in Watzek
Library's Pamplin Society Room 1he evening or
February 25 10 mce1 wi1h Erik Sten. the second
speaker In the monlhly "Mentors for Leadership"
series.
Sten is the Ponland City Council's younges1
Commissioner. He has amassed uncommon cxpc•
riencc in loc:il government for a 29-ycar-old. This
is not surprising, tonsiduring his p,~~si11natCc belief
that "we need young people in there. We're closer
10 the issues. we need 10 innuericc 1hc policies."
Within a minule or 1wo of starting his infomml 1alk,
h.: bemoaned 1hai "one lcri1ical] thing going wrong
with our socic,y is its passivity."
s,cn's prcscn1 1our in public life stems from
his role as :, native (havlng returned from an un
dergraduate education al Stanford University) who
feels a rcsp<>nsibility 10 help Portland main1ain and
improve its quality of lifo. Seeking a position in

nicipal govemmcnl of Washing1on, DC.
Sten ncccptcd an offer for a paying posi1ion
on Gretchen Kafoury's campaign for Cily Com
missioner, subscquen1ly joining her s1aff. He ,e .•
ferrcd 10 that experience :LS his "best job so far,
working half the time in consti1uent outreach, di
rectly with 1he people, and the other half on fomiu
la1ing housing policy.'' .. •..
:,bout how he deals wi1h his personal politics ver
sus public poli1ics. Sten said. "I have 10 factor in
community vnlues and detcnninc what's reasonable
to ask n citii.en 10 do. In our form of city govc.rn•
menl. you arc a manager of certain systems: you
have 10 temper your own political philosophy."
On 1hc other hand, he siressed the imponancc
of being innova1ive ... If you're going 10 be in these
jnbs I dealing wi1h civic issues], you've got I<) pro

10:,;peaking as n "mentor for leadership." Sten sum
rnarir.ed lha1 leadership emerges from "learning (in

infom1ed inpu~ and being active!"
S1en's newest siaff member is Serena Cruz, an
LC nlumno wi1h a BA in Political Science: a
mas1er's in public policy from 1he Kennedy Sch(>0I
of Govcrnmcn1 01,.,fforvard; a JD from UC
Berkeley's Boal! School of Law: and member of
'the Oregon State Bar.
Tiiis month ·s speaker in 1he "Mentors for Lead
ership" series is Gale Caslillo, recipicnl of 1he 19'J4
Hero's Award of the Oregon Women's Political Cau
cus. She is also the owner of a consulling firm that
provides 1echnical assis1ancc 10 minori1y and
worn cn,owned businesses. and a civic leader as a
Commis.~ioner for the Ponland Development Com
mission and vice-president of both the Hispanic
Mctropoli1an Chamber of Commerce and 1he Or
egon Human Development Corporation. Her talk
is scheduled for Wednesday. March 261h al 7 pm in
Watzck Library's Pamplin Society Room. She also spoke about 1he more general problem of si
lencing voices, especially feminine voice.< and desires. Sh<
addressed 1he typical dicho1omization of women into ci-
1her the Virgin Mary or 1he whore-like, seduc1ress Eve. Al
the end of her lec1ure she had everyone in 1he room read
one line apiece from the poem "She Had Some Horses," by
Joy Harjo. The poem is line aflcr line of descriptions oftbc
horses: "She had horses who were bodies of sand." In each
line, however, the horses have differen1 characteristics.
Williams used this poem n.~ an example of how an can
coun1er accep1ed societal nomis. such as 1he silencing ol
women's voices and their re,duction to whores or virgins.
"Harj<> is countering the Siren song 1ha1 tempts women 10
be lhe angel with a song that ma11er-of-fac1ly acknowledges
the mulliplicily of selves. the 'herds of horses' wilhin each
of us," Williams said.
As each person read a different line from 1he poem, as
all voices were heard. proclaiming the veracity of mulli
plici1y and great variely, Williams· staled belief in thcpowci
of ari echoed silently in lhe lounge.
Williams shared more 1han a philosophy about 1bc
power of art in our lives: she shared her own experien<C$
and personal beliefs. Sophomore Li1.a Smith thanked Wil•
Iiams for opening up to the audience of studen1s. ".I appre
ciate ii so much when you professors share more wilh us.•
