Stull runs for state office
LC senior hopes
to improve
education & the
environment as
a state legislator
by Andrew Zahler
Inspired by an unopposed
incumbem and a nornina1ion
from the Pacif'ic Party, Lewis
& Clark semor Barry Joe Stull
is running for the District 12
seat' in the Oregon House of
Representatives. Centering
his campaign around the lc­
gal i zat ion of hemp, more
funding for education, •nd
safer bike paths for commut•
ing cyclists, the District 12
candidate hopes 10 make
third party ripples In the wa­
ters or a primarily bipartisan
system at the November 3
elections.
For Stull, the decision 10

scnting the sole choice for Dis­
trict 12 voters. Stull accepted the
nomlnation as Lhe Pacific Party
c-:.1nd1d::ue.
Three pnormc.s stand out lor
the third party challenger. Stull,
Vice President/Secretary for lhe
Hemp Network, Inc., lender of
the LC Mcmp Club, and a self•
proclaimed Hemp historian, secs
the 0brous plant as a vtable al-tcrnat ivc to paper and wood
producLS. "l know from personal
experience 1ha1 hemp offers a
sus1>mnblc source or 1'lber for
bu1ld1ng matenals and paper,
he wrote, "which would end the
destruction or our forests and
the water supply they provide
and preserve, and would curb
the pollution caused by chemi­
cals used to tum wood pulp inlo ,,-----
' feel I have a moral

tion to be involved.

Pacific Party nominee -----,,
the inferior grJde or paper that
ii is."
In addition, Stull supports
reform m 1he s1ate cclucauonal
system. In material prepared for
the Orego11io11, Stull emphasized
Lite necessity or a system that
prepares students for life, not
employment. "Simply prcponng
a student for a job may benefit
the corporation employing that
student, but will do nothing w
prepare the studenl for decision
making, goal set1ing, s1rcss and
anger management, family pl:1n­
ning. parenting, and particip;u­
ingjn the democracy," he wrote.
To prov1cle for this rcforn1, Stull
suggests a reslOrcd balance bc­

ronment, Swll has aligned his

The senior thesis Is indeed a rite of

tO nvoid. In fact, there ls some disagree~
mcn1 as to whc1hcr LC has a thesis re­
quirement or not. Depending on the dc­
panmcm, graclua1ing majors may or may
not be required to write a thesis or an
equivalent paper.
Por cxamp1e. the Communic,Hions

Political Science Depmmem requires a
senior thesis ur research paper but there
is no accompanying rigorous oral dc­

requirement as the culmination of a
student's college education would help
unite the lewis & Clark community. The
College has a commitment LO the Invent­
mg America program and thus opens
each student's college career with a core
requirement. The same type of require•
mem should exist to dose our college
careers. It would be a perfect opportu­
nity 10 examine our progress and 10 dis•
cover whether we have indeed embraced
the ideals put forth as the justification for
1he Inventing America program. Having a universal re:quircmen1 to
write a thesis would unite the college
community in the same way that Invent•
ing America unites the lirst-year class.
finished theses could be kept as refer­
ence material in the library for years LO
come; both those and current theses
could be shared and discussed, thus fos­
tering the intellectual community here.
Why I would argue as a smdcnt for
something which would obviously make
more work for myself? I admit that a the­
sis paper/oral defense is an extraordin.1ry
amount of work, and that the idea of
orally defending my paper in front of my
world and the proverbial real world. Lastly, to successfully defend my ideas
would give me the faith in them, in my
education, and in my ability 10 be sue•
cessful in the real world.
Although I hesitate 10 say it, for fear
of being shunned by my fellow Pioneers,
I think that LC should examine the the•
sis program ofRced College and consider
implementing such a program here.
Whhou, such a thesis requirement. stu•
dents lose the opportunity 10 gain the
aforementioned experiences and have
nothing with which to effectively con•
dude their college education. The the•
sis/oral defense requirement is a rite of
passage I hat we should no, avoid.

Bands changing attitudes and shows at nasty venues
by Peter Chauncey
Sundoy Oct. 4, 1998. I got to
the show after the nrst band
played, but someone told me
they were boring. However, 1his
docs not mean much, as-most
people nrc wrong anyway. I ar­
rived as Avail was setting up, but
somehow I was not as cxcircd as
I thought I should be. I had not
seen this amazing foursome for
quilc some time, the last time
being six months before at the
Fireside Bowl in Chicago. a very
small and personal venue. fining
for a semi-known punk band
like Avail. The homey atmo­
sphere of the Fireside fat
omdoes the •lmighty four-foot
high stage of l.aluna. However.
I did have • lot of energy 10
spend in the "mosh pit", some­
thing I rarely have the opportu•
nhy to participme in, But I fig­
ured Avail is close to a classic
punk hand. SO ii was rcspectfol,
in :1 way, 10 dance-around like
<.:razy and sweat all over a bunch
of tough guys who, under nor­
mal circums1ances, would never
come within a four foo1 r::idius
of another sweaty guy. Just be­
fore jumping into 1hcir firsl
song. Avail jokingly pointed out
the wonderful barricade dwt
keeps murdcrou!' fons from
lmnning the bands I hey love.
When the first song finally
staricd. I was a liulc. weary of the
painful dance pit, but eventually
l was rcmindc.d of the musoch• istic nature or punk rock, and
jumped in. I was swept 10 and
fro in an auempt to keep some
son of dance rhythm with the
onslaught that pounded from
the huge monitor speakers. The
sound guys at La Luna obviously
think it is real cool to turn the
bass up so loud that it drowns
out any guitar or melody crcatc:<l
within. Way to go guys.
'' I see kids in the punk
scene today who
spend more time
beating people up on
the dance floor than
reading or making
some change in cul­
ture and society. -----,,
However, after about four
songs in the '"pit." I was re•
minded of any reasons for re•
garding punk dancing with such
a negative attitude. I saw 1he
small man, big mouth ty1>e, in
wife-beaters who held no
rhythm in his motion other than
extremely forceful pushes on
those who ~1rc smaller th:in hin,­
sclf. l s.1w the. massive s1rnigh1
edge kid throwing his fists
:.round in circles, eallcd ·1hc
windmill' dance step in hardcore
culture. l saw the guys kicking
around at everyone in the <:row<l,
whether they we-re-purposely taking par1 in the '"pit,. or were
innocem victims or a culture
gone wrong. I mean, I see kids
in the punk scene today who
spend more time beating people
up on the dance floor than read­
ing or making some change in
culture and society. Making a
change is whal punk means lO
me, and perhaps what il once
meant 10 the kids who now only
find it as a way to rebel from
their upper class parents. After
being pushed so hard by some
large guy that I almost. tripped
over myself, I left to the outskirts
of the dance circle. It is such a
shame that the music has be­
come a means for insecure males
to show their muscle by violent
domination. What ever hap•
pencd 10 dancing?
Anyway, next up were the
Suicide Machines. I have a long
hist0ry with these guys. They
played one of the first shows I
ever wcnl to in 1hc Chicago area,
when I ,-.1as a freshman in high
school and they were an ex­
tremely sloppy and boring ska
band. No one came to sec them
and no one really enjoyed then,
:n th:,\l point in time. Now here
they ore. hitting it fairly big,
ploying poppy punk with occa­
sionul ska inOucnce. They are
quite the success story. For m:'lny
this would be a reason 10 dislike
them and call them •sellouts",
This idea docs not bother me 100
much, but something the singer
s:1id on stage really kind of up-set me. He was talking about the
band The Presidents of the USA
(or something like that) and
said, "Those guys suck. Oh my
god! Thai is the most boring
hand I have ever heard! Those
guys absolutely suck!" Now I
have never heard the hand in
question, but that is not my
point. How could a hand with
such humble beginnings feel
obliged to talk so much smack
about ano1hcr band? It is noL
logical that a band that truly did
lack any talent whatSoevcr when
in years pas.I shnuld be able 10
talk like that. It made me laugh
at how large those guys' egos
must have grown since the time
when we played at a beach in the
Rogers Park area of Chicago.
They were tossing my riend
Ura into the water unril the fate­
ful moment when 1hey acridtn•
tally threw her face first into a
hidden rock and knocked out
two of her teeth. She wassenl to
the emergency room, but iL
mrned out okny when she recov­
ered 10 nnd that she was on rhe
Suicide Machine guest list for
life, Unfortunatcl)•, they didn't
remember 1his the las·t time they
played the Metro in Chicago, so
I doubt the)' remember it now,
h all makts me wonder if it Is
justified fora band. af1er .. hi11ing
it big," to talk heavy trash about
another band that is doing the
snmc thing they arc doing! mak­
ing music. I spem ll10Sl or their
set pemsing the books and pam-phlcts that AK Press offered at a
merchandise table.
As far as L;iluna is con•
cerned, I think I will stay away.
The most anal people in the en­
tire world arc gratefully em­
ployed at lalu.na. Their obnox­
iously strict rule of crowd surf­
ing is laughable. It is a horrible
thing that if you arc not 21 years
old. you can nm sic in a chair In
the main section. This is ex•
tremely annoying, especially
when 1he noor is covered in ciga•
rctte ash and throw-up, as il was
at the Avail show. And why do
they even bother to stamp your
hnnd if you can't leave without
coming back? No exceptions on
this rule either, folks, so don't
even try it. Maybe I have been
spoiled by smaller, more per­
sonal clubs where you can actu•
ally talk with the musicians. And
if you want to sit in a chair to
enjoy the bands from a reason•
able disrance, you arc welcome
10 do so at the Fireside Bowl.
/\nd If your neck gets tired of
staring up at the bands as if they
were gods, come on down to 17
Nautical Miles.a club in SE Port·
land. If you ever desire 10 go
outside in order to clear your
lungs from smoky air. check Olli
the shows al the Milwaukee
House in NW Ponlnnd. These
two clubs give scamps for n re:.•
son. Personall)•, I'm sick of rock­
star attitudes and overzealous
security with their shirts 1uckcd
in too tight.

begins with a bit or music that
sound like Sublime'$ Do'in Time.
This is probably DJ Spooky's
most e.xperimc.ntal album, so it
has a lot or contrasting sounds.
but therein lies its chann. Be­
yond hip-hop, he includes a little hit or jazz. rock, some near
reggae sounds, and even a piece
based on a iraditional Buddhist

All in oil, DJ Spooky has cre­
ated quite a masterful album.

Never hcord of Zero Parade? Maybe you'll remem­
ber the Hccbec Gcebees? Af1er [ivc years, there was
a name change and the Heebee Gecbees is now
known as Zero Parade. Either way, the names do not
do justice 10 1he band. Their scl[-titled albuin is fun

Between Bobby Quick's cute vQcals and the 12-string
electric guiiar, this album just makes you bob your
head with bliss.
Mood Outcome: As previously stated, the urge
to bob your head. All the members of Superkreme have all formerly
been involved with 01her bands. Mall Sobol (formerly
of The Waynes) plays guitar and exchanges vocals with
Susan Rasch (formerly of sel[-named band Rasch). Paul
Lewis, who has received the title as "Best Bass Player'"
in Cleveland's Scene Magazine, was a member of the
Jchova Waiiresses as was Jeff Hannon, who is now the
drummer o[ Superkreme. This album consislS of glossy
guitars and lyrics about common life problems. l1's hard
10 make a comparison 10 this pop/rock band. 'Mall
Sobol's vocals have been likened to those of Manhew
Swee!, bui the only thing 1ha1 they have in common, in
my eyes, is 1heir llrs1 name. Even 1hough the album
was produced by the respectable Mitch Easier (REM,
Pavement., Velvet Crush), the album itscl[ isn't.
Mood Outcome: "Where's 1hencares1 trash can?" Lisa Hall, Paul Hopkinson, Stuart Hcelcy, :tnd
Steve Ludlam are hanging out in the good ole sub­
urb of Chesterfield In the English North Midlands,
and ,hey start Jamming together for the heck or i,.
They were pleased with outcome, then got a decent
label 10 sign 1hem on, and berc they are. This album
has cute Bri1 girl vocals on top o[ a grea1 groove from
a keyboard background. Very Lilith Fair-ish, very
"Buzz Cu1"-ish. This band will be making their way
across the S1a1es very soon. Be cool and beat 1he
trend.
Mood Outcome: Feeling the need 10 go

me company (ie. good car driving music).

14 Pioneer Log October 9, 1998 LC RUNNERS TREAD THE MILES
Marathoners take on Portland streets
by Andrew Zahler
Some run for1,heir lives. O1h­
crs nm fro1111hcir pasts. Still 01h­
crs run for shoe cndorscmcms.
Bu, for 1en Lewis & Clark s1u­
<lcn1s, 1he decision 10 hit the as­
phah in the 27th annual Port­
land Marathon on Sunday, Oc1.
4,aroscfrom the need to run for
themselves.
Ballling fatigue, various lev­
els of pain, and the infamous
mile 20 wall, 1he nmncrs crossed
the finish line with times rang­
ing from 3:20:25 10 4:45:46. For
these runners, however. the
marathon wasn't a comest or an
expression of hours. minutes.
and seconds; it was a celebration
of spirit.
Sophomore Lucre1ia
Sondcrcr, a track athlete in high
school. decided to take the chal­
lenge after meeting a marathon
runner on a College Ou1doors
rafting trip last spring. "I ran
lwclve miles with her and
though1, 'wow, 1his is really
cool." Sonderer said. When the
acquaintance suggested a mara­
thon, Sonderer readily agreed.
Since then she has been nmning
five 10 twelve miles a day in preparation for the 26.2 mile
jaunt. Sondercr finished wilh a
lime or 3:25:41. a mark good
enough for second pbcc in her
l 9-nnd-un<lcr age group and a
spot in the top 550 runners over­
all.
But for Sonderer, placing was
but a tokc_n achicvcmen1; the
feeling of aecomplishmen1 was
more than enough reward. "I feel
grcal. I feel empowered," she
said a day after 1hc race. "I was
running for myself. C'est la
vie ... for life.•
Charging through the course
alongside fellow studenis Col­
leen McGraw (3:29:24) and
Kelly Hayden (3:29: 17) as well
as McGraw's father, Sonderer
had no 1rouble passing the time.
"The first l3 miles went by re­
ally fast," she said. "There was
music and it was so happy.•
When 1he pain set in. 1he group
took solace in complaining 10
one another.
O1her runners discovered
more creative ways to pass the
Lime. Sophomores Robert Childs
(4:15:00), adorned with a run­
ning top and temporary tauoos
paying homage to his native Brit-ain, and Micah Risher (4: 15:00)
called upon the power of music
whc.n the going got painful. "At
mile 20 we got a lillle delirious
and st•ned chanting Zulu chants
my fa1her taught me. which
seemed to energize us m some
way," Childs related in a post­
race email.
Also finishing the marathon
were Christylec Griffin, ASLC
President Gene Wixson
(3:56:31), Drew Ross (4:18:45),
Misa Yamasaki (4:45:46) and
Jerrlll Collard (3:20:25).
Collard's time earned him a spo1
among the top five hundred nm­
ncrs.
For the runners, pain was an
obstacle but not impassable. "I
[eh it was fantastically fun 10
represent my country and 10 feel
imense pain which felt like a
porcupine's back gnawing itself
in10 my legs and bum," Childs
wrote.
McGraw echoed the senti•
menl. "from the belly bu non up
I was all good, bul rrom the waist
down I was a hurting unit," she
expressed in an email. "If you
w•nt a na1ural high, then run­
ning 26.2 miles is where it is a1.•· ,,-----
I feel great. I feel
empowered. I was
running for myself.
C'est la vie ... for life.

liaving completed her ftm
marathon, Sonderer is ready for
more. Ah hough she wants to al­
low her body 10 rest up. she i.s
eyeing the Sean le half marathon
in November.
The marathon left Risher
empowered as well, but his goals
remain focused on Lhe: immedi­
ate. •1 think every boy and girl
should spend one Sunday morn­
ing in their lire running a mara­
thon," he wro1e in an email. .. h's
a prcuy groovy feeling crossing
1he t1nish line with 4 hours and
1wen1y-six miles behind you.
My ncx1 goal is to make ii 10
classes minus 1he funny walk I
now have."
Runner's heart propels her to finish line
commentary by Misa
Yamasaki
I had dinner with Lewis &
Clark students the nigh1 before
we were going to nm the Pon­
land Marathon. Fourteen or us
were nervous bccausc.1his 26.2-
mile marathon v.ias the nrst one
for us. We encouraged one an­
other wi1h t•lking about each
effort 10 have 1rained for the
marathon before. This was I he
27'1' Portland Marathon. The
marathon is called "1hc bes1
1>eople's marathon 111 1he Wcs1."
and ii is one of l he 1op l0 mara­
thons in the US. Therefore, I was
sure tha1 not only the people
who live in Portland but also
those who live in every other
part of the country were look­
ing foreword 10 the m•rathon.
I decided 10 join 1hc Portland
Marathon in the middle of Sep­
tember. When I heard that one
of my best friends ran it, I
1hough1 that it would be a good
opportunity 10 challenge myself.
I had always 1hough1 before tha1 ever, I w;,s 1he only one wilh a
grca1 deal of confidence in my
running ability. Why? I do not
know,, believed thal this mara-
1hon was the test for myself. 10
sec whether I can always be
ready 10 face difficulnes or not.
The Sunday morning was the
first morning that I woke up be­
fore my alarm clock this entire
semes1er. My friends and I left
college for downwwn before
daybreak. We were supposed 10
s1an running at 7am. Even be­
fore the start, I got separated
from my friends because there
were the thousands of people
there. Therefore. I started with
loneliness. Fortunately, I had not
gone £or 1en minutes before one
woman stancd :1 conversation
with me. She also had los1 her
friends. She said, "The marathon
should be a ba11lc against your­
self. Be strong!" The conversa­
tion with her cheered me up.
While running in downtown,
I saw the different side or down­
town. Instead or cars' noise. the
road was filled with feverish ex­
citement. l coul<l even imagine
that the Willamelle River en•
couraged us and all 1hc green
plams in downtown produced
extremely dean air for us. Many
people ran 1oge1her; old people
for whom this was the 27'' Port­
land Mara1hon. Cather with his
haby in a baby carriage, mother
and her daughter. and so on. I
made many friends while run­
ning. Our purpose was ,he same:
getting a finisher's shirt. For us,
it wa.~ irnporl~\nl that we rinishcd
hut no1 how long we took. ,,-----------
1 realized again that it is not easy to get confi­
dence. Now I am glad to feel this pain be­
cause this is the evidence that I overcame
some obstacles in my heart. -----------,,
the view 0£ downtown from the
hill. I thought about many
things while running for four
hours. I had thought before the
mara1hon what I could 1hink
about or what l could solve <lur­
ing runnlng. For example, I was
thinking of the contents of let­
ters 10 my friends in Japan, the
plan of the next weekend,
Thanksgiving. and winter ,,aca ..
tion, why I am In the US, what I
can do here for my future, and
what I can do af1cr going back
10Japan. I enjoyed seeing beau­
tiful houses in Northwes1 Port­
land, I 1hough1 that 1 wanll0 live
in a house like one of these. Fi­
nally, I was 1hinking. "Oh! I need
10 do laundry tonight because I
have no socks any more!· My
legs were moving naturally and
constantly.
However, I had I he hardest
time between the sixteen miles'
poin1 and the cigh1ecn miles'
pom1. I could not control my
legs easily even though I wanted
10. When I was suffering from
the dimcuhy. a woman in her
forties who was running next to
me said, "We can do i1! Go for
it!" My problem was no longer
my physical s1rcng1h. Whether
I could keep running or not de­
pended on my spiritual strcngt h.
If you believe in yourself, you
can do it. Otherwise, you mny
stop running. miles. I jus1 felt natural. l was
thinking about nothing, I did
1101 carry anything exec.pt my
body. I just felt healthy •nd free.
I have played 1ennis for more
than ten years. I always compe1e
with someone. I have felt glad
to be.at someone. lt is said that
26.2 miles is the longest distance
that a human being can run.
When I arrived at the goal, I be­
lieved 1ha1 I had fought against
myself, not others, and I won. I
[eh 1ha1 I overcame a high wall
in my heart. I do not know ex­
ac1ly what 1ha1 wall was. How­
ever, I am sure that I gained self­
confidence by completing the
race. Now, lam \!Cry sore. I can·
not even walk easily. I knew that
I wa111ed 10 feel how tired I could
feel aher running 26.2 miles. I
~calized again that il is not easy
to get confidence. Now I am
glad 10 feel this pain because this
is the e"idcncc that l overcame
some obs1acles in my heart. Race for the

by Meaghan Lamarre
On Sunday, Sept. 27, more
than 30 Lewis & Clark students
pankipa1ed in the Portland Race
for 1he Cu re. Some ran the race
along Fron1 S1rcc1 and others
walked the rou1e. but •II were
thinking about mo1iva1ions and
their reasons for participating.

According 10 the Ponlan<l
chapter of the Susan G. Komen
Breast Cancer Foundation, more
1han 32.000 people partic1pa1ed
in this year's Race for tl,e Cure.
Portland is one of a rew cities to
host an :1ll-women•s 5K race as
well asa one milec::ocd race. 1·he
a?mosphere at the race was very
supportive. Many runners wore
signs saying '"1 n memory of. .. '"
while nrnny others donned signs
saying "In celebration of .... "
One student who walked in the
women's SK commented that i1
was moving to see so many
people walking in memory of
someone who had dlcd of breast
cancer. At the same time, it was
inspiring to sec that n1an)'
people were cclcbra1ing the re­
covery Crom breast cancer. Kah
Freeman, a freshman at Lewis

women's SK. She said, ·11 was
very sobering 10 sec 1he names

those who are s,ill fighting.
Overall, ii was a wonderful ex•

in the race e:01mncnted1 '"IL was
incredible how many people
were there ... She con1,inued,
"One of my elementary school
teachers died of breast cancer so
l guess I was kind of walking in
memory of her."
All in all, the race was bo1h a
solemn and encouraging cxpc·
rience that will forever grace the
memories of its panicipants. I wan1ed 10 challenge myself 10
do something very difficult for
me. I play tennis and swim a lot.
But I am not a good runner. I
wanted 10 feel how tired l would
be after overcoming 1he dHft­
cuhy and running 26.2 miles.
Since I decided 10 join it. I
s1aned running regularly. I knew
