Griswold Stadium ••• er ... forest?
or how to kill iwo birds
with one stone
by Erin Haick
The planet virtually spun
backward last weekend. with the
football team winning a game to
finally break that 17-game(?)
losing streak. News? I'm writ
ing an editorial about football.
Thats preny bad, in and or it
self Bm then the planet straight
ened. :1nd we wcn1 1ight back 10
losing that ol' pigskin. Except
for 1ha1 brierrluke last weekend,
Lewis & C'3rk is not. one what
)'ou'd call a p•rncularly foo1ball
oricn1ed schon1.
We may br laclong jocks
around every corner, bm we do
have scads and scads of ano1 her
spccics-Amerlca11us
cnvironmenralctc. Lewis & Clark
is overflowing with hippies, cco•
1crroris1s, and other unwashed
hca1hcns who arc generally un•
fan,iliar with the twin c.:onccp1s
or showers 3nd washing ma
chines. And what Is the com•
mon point for lhcsc sub-.. $pccics;
what thing connects tht>m to•
gcthcr in solidarity with the
plan el? Tree-sits. You can't
proper!)' identify yourself as a
hippie withoui. having spent at
least some lime sitting among
th,· leafy branches of a wilder-ncss lrtc, even ifit was in child
hood play. (Some would argue
that childhood adventures were
the last time ,hat mos1 these
people stepped foot near a tree,
bu1 that's later editorial.)
The problem is 1ha1 tree-sits
;1rc inconvcnicm. AdmltLcdly,
there's the media '1\lcntion, and
the admiration of your peers
who've not yet made their own
pilgrimage 10 the pris1ine wilds. ,, ___ _
Problem: that won
derful $1 million
Astro-Turf field is not
producing the kind of
winning that Astro
Turf should. ____ ,,
More importantly, there's noth
ing like seeing your unwashed
self in a full-colorpicmrc in Time
10 make your p.lrcnts proud. But
really, who arc we kidding?

:1moums of Lrec-sap. not 10 men
tion those ill-tempered loggers,
who've been known to place
boun1ies on a full head (>f
dreadlocks. Plus, there's the real
problem-school work. It's hard to keep up on the reserve read
ing with the library so far away
and nary an internet connection
to be found.
One might argue that the tri
als of our football team anti the
trials of our hippies arc 1101 rc
la1cd. but t have reason 10 be
li('vc tiicy arc.
Problem: 1ha1 wonderful Sl
million As1ro-Turr f'icld is not
producing the kind of winning
1ha1 As1ro-Turf should.
Problem: hippies in tree-sits,
while assuaging their guilt-rid
den WASP upbringing. are miss
ing clnsscs right and left, and
c;clucation is lhc reason we're al
1 lus school.
Solution? Move 1hosc tree•
sits to somewhere a hit closer
1ha11 Eagle Creek, so 1ha1 1hc
hippies can balance cnviron
mcmal t1nd academic nwnrcness.
After all, "balance" is their
middle. name.
Whot I propose is simple
lei's send an expedition 10 find
some of these mythical "trees•
and move them rrom 1he endar.•

scaping currently covering the
campus, cuHing holes in the

GREAT AMERICAN
FILM SERIES
A couple of years ago, several Lewis & Clark College faculty members noted that
movies were not an integral part of the campus experience. On weekends, popular
movies were shown, but the classics were not. Films are an endemic part of Ameri
can culture, so much so that faculty and staff had little trouble recommending mov
ies they thought were worthy of being shown on campus. It is important to note,
however, that the Great American Film Series is designed to expose students to films
that have been critically acclaimed. The series is not intended to mirror the Inventing
America syllabus, although on occasion, there is a little overlap (Deliverance, for ex
ample, coincides with reading excerpts of Hobbes' Leviathan).
Robert Eisinger, Assistant Professor of Political Science
All movies will be double features shown in Miller 105 (Lindner Audito
rium) on Friday evening. The first movie will begin promptly at 7:30
pm. The second movie will begin five minutes after the first movie is
completed. All showings are free, and all members of the campus com
munity are invited and encouraged to attend.

sac@lclark.edu Bevel: Don't sing
by Jodi Garrington
My requaremcnts for music
are simple. I don'1 like songs if I
am unable to understand 1hc lyr
ics, i( I am repulsed b)' the
v.iords, or if ei, her the voice or
1 he inus-i<.: hurts my cars. Despite
the occasional song 1hat really
touches hcan and mind, I pri
marily enjoy music ,ts soothing
background noise while s1udy-
1 ng or driving.
Ignoring 1hc old adage ol not
judging a book by its cover, I
picked 1hts CD out because of
its cover. I had never heard or
1hc ar11s1 before, but was at·
1rac1cd to 1he muted background
picture and the fanciful song
titles, plus the lack of a parenial
advisory sticker. ~htppily, if sur-pris.}ngly, i could undersiand
most of the words. Though 1hcy
didn\ make much sense 10 me.
1hcy didn't disturb me Cllhcr.
The music itself was grca1:
soothing. beautiful inslrurnental
pieces with jus1 enough rhythm
10 keep me from falling asleep.
I especially enjoyed the use of
banjo and recorder, both rather
undcr•apprcci•
atcd sounds. II
Lhc nlburn were
purely 1ns1ru
mcmal I would
be well s.11isficd;
1 he one problem
with it is 1ha1. 1hc
vocalist can'1
sing. His voice
is scratchy and
squeaky, so
much so that at
first 1 though1 there was some
thing wrong ,-,1h the CD 11sclf.
There wasn'L: Via Nuon. 1he so•
lois1 behind Bevel, simply can'1
sing Every song 1 lis1cned 10
(five oul of 1wclve) was off-key.
While a pos51hlc reason for this
may be the fact 1hat 1he songs
"'ere recorded spontaneously, it
is 110 excuse. Personally. when 1

rnges of Lewis a•1d Clark's defen

though the defense made some
ndju~ .. mcnts and shut down
Redlands in the second half.
Ano1hcr key to 1hc Pioneer's vlc
lOT)' were the special teams. A
blocked field goal and a h,gh
snap forced the Bulldogs to 1akc
some chances, and kept them
from kicking more field goals. As
Fangcr sai<l, "'Our special 1cams

Mis efforts showed through
agains1 1hc Bulldogs with 1he

Griswold Stadium ••• er ... forest?
or how to kill iwo birds
with one stone
by Erin Haick
The planet virtually spun
backward last weekend. with the
football team winning a game to
finally break that 17-game(?)
losing streak. News? I'm writ
ing an editorial about football.
Thats preny bad, in and or it
self Bm then the planet straight
ened. :1nd we wcn1 1ight back 10
losing that ol' pigskin. Except
for 1ha1 brierrluke last weekend,
Lewis & C'3rk is not. one what
)'ou'd call a p•rncularly foo1ball
oricn1ed schon1.
We may br laclong jocks
around every corner, bm we do
have scads and scads of ano1 her
spccics-Amerlca11us
cnvironmenralctc. Lewis & Clark
is overflowing with hippies, cco•
1crroris1s, and other unwashed
hca1hcns who arc generally un•
fan,iliar with the twin c.:onccp1s
or showers 3nd washing ma
chines. And what Is the com•
mon point for lhcsc sub-.. $pccics;
what thing connects tht>m to•
gcthcr in solidarity with the
plan el? Tree-sits. You can't
proper!)' identify yourself as a
hippie withoui. having spent at
least some lime sitting among
th,· leafy branches of a wilder-ncss lrtc, even ifit was in child
hood play. (Some would argue
that childhood adventures were
the last time ,hat mos1 these
people stepped foot near a tree,
bu1 that's later editorial.)
The problem is 1ha1 tree-sits
;1rc inconvcnicm. AdmltLcdly,
there's the media '1\lcntion, and
the admiration of your peers
who've not yet made their own
pilgrimage 10 the pris1ine wilds. ,, ___ _
Problem: that won
derful $1 million
Astro-Turf field is not
producing the kind of
winning that Astro
Turf should. ____ ,,
More importantly, there's noth
ing like seeing your unwashed
self in a full-colorpicmrc in Time
10 make your p.lrcnts proud. But
really, who arc we kidding?

:1moums of Lrec-sap. not 10 men
tion those ill-tempered loggers,
who've been known to place
boun1ies on a full head (>f
dreadlocks. Plus, there's the real
problem-school work. It's hard to keep up on the reserve read
ing with the library so far away
and nary an internet connection
to be found.
One might argue that the tri
als of our football team anti the
trials of our hippies arc 1101 rc
la1cd. but t have reason 10 be
li('vc tiicy arc.
Problem: 1ha1 wonderful Sl
million As1ro-Turr f'icld is not
producing the kind of winning
1ha1 As1ro-Turf should.
Problem: hippies in tree-sits,
while assuaging their guilt-rid
den WASP upbringing. are miss
ing clnsscs right and left, and
c;clucation is lhc reason we're al
1 lus school.
Solution? Move 1hosc tree•
sits to somewhere a hit closer
1ha11 Eagle Creek, so 1ha1 1hc
hippies can balance cnviron
mcmal t1nd academic nwnrcness.
After all, "balance" is their
middle. name.
Whot I propose is simple
lei's send an expedition 10 find
some of these mythical "trees•
and move them rrom 1he endar.•

scaping currently covering the
campus, cuHing holes in the

GREAT AMERICAN
FILM SERIES
A couple of years ago, several Lewis & Clark College faculty members noted that
movies were not an integral part of the campus experience. On weekends, popular
movies were shown, but the classics were not. Films are an endemic part of Ameri
can culture, so much so that faculty and staff had little trouble recommending mov
ies they thought were worthy of being shown on campus. It is important to note,
however, that the Great American Film Series is designed to expose students to films
that have been critically acclaimed. The series is not intended to mirror the Inventing
America syllabus, although on occasion, there is a little overlap (Deliverance, for ex
ample, coincides with reading excerpts of Hobbes' Leviathan).
Robert Eisinger, Assistant Professor of Political Science
All movies will be double features shown in Miller 105 (Lindner Audito
rium) on Friday evening. The first movie will begin promptly at 7:30
pm. The second movie will begin five minutes after the first movie is
completed. All showings are free, and all members of the campus com
munity are invited and encouraged to attend.

sac@lclark.edu Bevel: Don't sing
by Jodi Garrington
My requaremcnts for music
are simple. I don'1 like songs if I
am unable to understand 1hc lyr
ics, i( I am repulsed b)' the
v.iords, or if ei, her the voice or
1 he inus-i<.: hurts my cars. Despite
the occasional song 1hat really
touches hcan and mind, I pri
marily enjoy music ,ts soothing
background noise while s1udy-
1 ng or driving.
Ignoring 1hc old adage ol not
judging a book by its cover, I
picked 1hts CD out because of
its cover. I had never heard or
1hc ar11s1 before, but was at·
1rac1cd to 1he muted background
picture and the fanciful song
titles, plus the lack of a parenial
advisory sticker. ~htppily, if sur-pris.}ngly, i could undersiand
most of the words. Though 1hcy
didn\ make much sense 10 me.
1hcy didn't disturb me Cllhcr.
The music itself was grca1:
soothing. beautiful inslrurnental
pieces with jus1 enough rhythm
10 keep me from falling asleep.
I especially enjoyed the use of
banjo and recorder, both rather
undcr•apprcci•
atcd sounds. II
Lhc nlburn were
purely 1ns1ru
mcmal I would
be well s.11isficd;
1 he one problem
with it is 1ha1. 1hc
vocalist can'1
sing. His voice
is scratchy and
squeaky, so
much so that at
first 1 though1 there was some
thing wrong ,-,1h the CD 11sclf.
There wasn'L: Via Nuon. 1he so•
lois1 behind Bevel, simply can'1
sing Every song 1 lis1cned 10
(five oul of 1wclve) was off-key.
While a pos51hlc reason for this
may be the fact 1hat 1he songs
"'ere recorded spontaneously, it
is 110 excuse. Personally. when 1

rnges of Lewis a•1d Clark's defen
sive breakdowns. After half time
though the defense made some
ndju~ .. mcnts and shut down
Redlands in the second half.
Ano1hcr key to 1hc Pioneer's vlc
lOT)' were the special teams. A
blocked field goal and a h,gh
snap forced the Bulldogs to 1akc
some chances, and kept them
from kicking more field goals. As
Fangcr sai<l, "'Our special 1cams

Mis efforts showed through
agains1 1hc Bulldogs with 1he
