Excuses?
One day on our way up from Bo
Dine (which has never been replaced
because of lack of funds for a new
science building) we noticed that our
sidewalks are being bordered by a
row of beautiful bricks designed to
impress visitors with the beauty of
our campus. They have been working
on them for about a week now and
haven't made a lot of progress, but
it's nice to support the world's un
employed bricklayers.
Then we come into the lower area
of Templeton and, walking by the De
velopment Office's temporary quar
ters, we noticed that they had in
stalled one-way windows. Something
to do with the sun on the backs of
their necks. But that is also good
because somebody has to support who
ever put in the extra wiooows. And
maybe somebody will have to move
the windows when the Development
Office leaves Templeton (or will
they?)
On the way into the Trail Room, we
ran into Mrs. Ferris, the resident
director of Stewart Hall. Somehow
it really hurts to think that she won't
be in her old position next year. It
seems that there is some problem
about the college being in financial trouble, so they are reducing the
dorm staff. She is an itwaluable
friend to those who know her-which
must be about everybody-but perhaps
we are expected to look at the beauty
of our campus and forget about our
frieoos. It's more important to im
press visitors, so they can give more
money to the college.
But when we get the money, what
will we do with it? Line more side
walks? Increase the comfort of the
staff? Or will somebody wake up
and realize that our college i.s in
need of things more important. We
do need a science building, and the
bricks that are by the sidewalk could
build a good part of a wall. We do
need staff members, including pro
fessors, assistants, and resident di
rectors with the capabilities of Mrs.
Ferris.
The examples given are not equal,
but in a way they do point up dis
crepancies in general policy. If the
financial emergency is as bad as we
are led to believe. then we should
react accordingly. If finances are
used as an excu.se when other fac
tors are more important, tllen we
can't help but feel as though we are
looking through the w1·ong side of the
Development Office window.
Requirement Hearing
The Curriculum Committee hearing
next Wednesday will offer students a
chance to speak on a subject dear to
our hearts -college requirements.
The Committee has worked hard all
year to get opinions from all seg
ments of the campus, but the response
has sometimes been enough to dis
courage anyone.
There is continual talk about the
subject of useless requirements, but if students don't speak now while they
have a chance, they will have no
legitimate excuse to gripe later.
Possible changes that will be dis
dussed include dropping all require
ments, substituting test scores and
changing the Civ sequence and empha
sis. These may not seem terribly
important this week, but someday
they will be and we urge your at
tendance.

Persian Overseas Group Studying
Variety, Movement of Local Tribes
by Phillip Scott
Much of the history of ancient
Persia, parlicula,rly before writ
ten history, has been a hls<ory of
tribal movement.s. Today. in a
oation of about 25 mllllon people,
mere ;ire close to 5 mUllon no
madic tribesmen. Our knowledge
of this sltuation was further en..
lightened by lranlan anthropolo
gist, Dr. Afshar, during a re
cent visit to the Social Research
center of Teheran.
Or. Afshar has spent mucb of
the last few yous living among
tho tribes and accompanying them
on their seasonal mlgractons. His
lecru.re was 3ccompa.nied by rare
plt1\Jres of the llfeofthesepeople,
md dealt with their prosent s1~
ad.on and problems. grates from an area south of
lspl,ahan <o Just north of th.e
Kbuzlstan plafn. Their clothing
ls of particular interest as It
very closely resembles that worn
during the Parthan period of 200
B.C, to 280 A.D.
Along tile Caspian area Is the·
GuUeks. Their number Is now
dv.•lndlh~.. but one can stlll see
remnsnts of these stole tribes.
Occupying an area from the
fentral Persian desert to tile Pak
istani border are the Baloochl
tribes, who base th<lr living on
camel herding and some agrfcul
rure.
LMog along the Russl811 border
from the Casptan Sea IO the area
of 1M' Kurds are the Turkomans,
whose physlcal features lndicate
their Mongolian origins, A typi
cal fe.arutt of the. dress of these
sbocp..hcrdlng people Is their
large. full lambskin hats.
The Turlcomans are cut off from
the! r numerou-s related tribes by the Russian border. and are furt.her
boxed In from migr.alion by other
tribe-$. Thi$ has ,created some
particular problems for these
people. I Numbering about 200,000 In
south ... central lran .are the Qas
Qais. While ln Sh;iraz, we had
an opponunity to see many mem
bers of this tribe with their di,._
t.lnctly typical bats.
The northeastern section of the
country Is occupied by the AI
sbars and Shahsavans. who total
about 500,000,
Finally we come ro the oil-rich
plains of Khuzlstan. Here are
about 150,000 Arabs, related to
those found In the Arab nations
which border Iran. Their way
of life and their lde1>tlty as Arabs
make them the least .. Persian;·

from the other trtbes of Iran.
Those of our group who ventured
to the south recently got • good
look at these people. ft serves a variety of other
functions. In a sense. It ls the
Iranian answer to the American
fireplace. but far easier to use.
Dudng the winter months the
Korsl Is the principal source or
heat. It Is in continual use, par.
tlculady by the residents of the
northern sections of I ran. Thls
tnstrumenl assumes the role of
the family communication center,
where each member or the ram

rests.
SlnJng underneath a Ko·rst
brings immediate re.laxadon to one's mind and body. Somedmes
It Is even used as a place to
spend a restful nJghr•s steep.
Ideally, the Korst should be
situated within • Persian family
room. Otage Neshenun, as It
ls referred ro, provides a se
cluded place for private family
conversations and retlglous prac
tices. such as praying.
Such comfon 1 have never ex
perienced. What a cheap. but
fantastic way to keep snug and
wInn on dismal, coJd. wlnter
days.
The Persians certainly do lcnow
how to impress their visitors
when It comes to relaxation. Who
lcnows? Maybe we wlll bring •

Perhaps the greatest problem
encountered by the nomadic tribes
bs been the government's policy
of settlement. Thert'! can really
be sound arguments for both sides
of this question. Its resulta.nt
problems bear a great deal of
semblance to those acquired by
rbt American Indians when they
were settled on reservations,
though the restrlctlons are less. This is your life line. If you're not doing something with your life, it doesn't matter how tong it is.

These problems Include such
things as loss of spirit, poverry,

Wblle lt appeared that Ille Pio
neers were slightly oU form for
the meet, several athletes did
come through with outstanding
efforts. Mike DeBols started
things off right when he leaped
23-0-3/4 In the 10!)8 Jump co cap
ture his second coo!erence dtle
in two years. Mtke's Jump was
his best ever. and marked the
second dme this year the tal
ented Sophomore has been over
23-feet.
Tom Boyle provided the
Pioneers with a second big effort
when he cleared a personal best
ot 13-0 lo the pole vault co de
for first with teammate Doug
Ha,mllton.
Doug Bell again showed his
abUlty to compete under pressure
when the valuable senior out-
strided defending champion Ray
Colson lo both hurdle races.
Doug's 1s.o, 120-yarcl high hurclle
time was particularly outstand
ing since he had not won a blgh
bu.rd.le rac.e prior to the con
ference meet. Doug's iflne ef
forts made him Ille onlY,. double
wlMOr of the day and the hlgb
point man tn the conference
meet.
Bruce Sheehan (50,4) and Jim
KeMedy (49.8) again did an ouc
Slllnding job lo the m!.le relay as
liley brought LC from a five yarcl
deficit to a ten yarcl lead, These
two n1Mers ha.ve consistently
been the backbone of LC' s un
defeated mile relay team.
Last. but by no means least,
wa.s Ted Oorma.n's f-anrastic
9:08,S conference and school rec
ord in the two-mUe. What more
can be said of Ted that has not

Sideline Sports Shtick
by Dick Porker
Northwest Conference representatlves me, In Salem last Sa111r.
dliy and two very interesting rul.lngs evolved wblch de$erve further
d.Jscusslon.. First, Willamette received a mlld "slap on the wrist"
for violating College Scholarship Service procedures. Secondly, the
number of league basketball games will be reduced lrom 18 to 12 for
tbe 1969-70 campaign.
One must severely criticize the representatives (as a whole) far
Its Inconsistency in rull~ oo llnanclal mlscakes toward athletes.
Last fall, the representatlves deal< Unf'leld an unprecedented, harsh
and nearly unbelievably cruel censorship. In an almost Identical
situation, Willamette's only censarsblp was declaring the player in
ellglble (or competition.
Obviously the WU decision meant a more lax attlrude toward fi
nancial blunders Involving athletes, but It Is J:w,dly the way to tell
Llnfleld we're sorry. pleas.e forgive us, it won't happen again. 1be
Irony of the whole controversy Is <hot Wlllamene was the school
wblcb called attendoo to Unfleld's financial ei,ror.
The second decision involved the NWC hoop season, wblch nor
mally has ea.ch team playing the other six teams three times. A(<or
next season. each team will play eec.h other only twice. This Is
certainly a break In levor of traveling, bu, this writer feels the
represencadves didn't go far enough.
The schools will now be forced to find more non-league opponenu,
which could be difficult and could create wors~ traveling conditions.
A better Idea would be to hold a poSt-seasoo playoff among the top
two or three teams in the district to determine the best-team 10 send
to the playoffs.
The way the league Is sec up currently means only <.he best overall
team Ls sent 10 the district playoffs. A team could gee off to a slow
Start, f.inlsh ou, of first place, he the best team In the league but still
not make the playoffs. ThlnJc about It. Every pro league but baseball
conducts ·~st .. seas.on playoffs.

Former major league catcher Bob Uecker. who made the big league•
only because be could catch knuckleball pitchers, ls puzzled at the

MEANING OP SPOR'l'S TERMINOLOGY CHANGE
Even Webster's Dictionary has changed the definition of certain
words over the years. Spons is no exception. Rlg'ht et this very m0-
ment the meaning or various SpOrtS tenns are being altered. Let's

Excuses?
One day on our way up from Bo
Dine (which has never been replaced
because of lack of funds for a new
science building) we noticed that our
sidewalks are being bordered by a
row of beautiful bricks designed to
impress visitors with the beauty of
our campus. They have been working
on them for about a week now and
haven't made a lot of progress, but
it's nice to support the world's un
employed bricklayers.
Then we come into the lower area
of Templeton and, walking by the De
velopment Office's temporary quar
ters, we noticed that they had in
stalled one-way windows. Something
to do with the sun on the backs of
their necks. But that is also good
because somebody has to support who
ever put in the extra wiooows. And
maybe somebody will have to move
the windows when the Development
Office leaves Templeton (or will
they?)
On the way into the Trail Room, we
ran into Mrs. Ferris, the resident
director of Stewart Hall. Somehow
it really hurts to think that she won't
be in her old position next year. It
seems that there is some problem
about the college being in financial trouble, so they are reducing the
dorm staff. She is an itwaluable
friend to those who know her-which
must be about everybody-but perhaps
we are expected to look at the beauty
of our campus and forget about our
frieoos. It's more important to im
press visitors, so they can give more
money to the college.
But when we get the money, what
will we do with it? Line more side
walks? Increase the comfort of the
staff? Or will somebody wake up
and realize that our college i.s in
need of things more important. We
do need a science building, and the
bricks that are by the sidewalk could
build a good part of a wall. We do
need staff members, including pro
fessors, assistants, and resident di
rectors with the capabilities of Mrs.
Ferris.
The examples given are not equal,
but in a way they do point up dis
crepancies in general policy. If the
financial emergency is as bad as we
are led to believe. then we should
react accordingly. If finances are
used as an excu.se when other fac
tors are more important, tllen we
can't help but feel as though we are
looking through the w1·ong side of the
Development Office window.
Requirement Hearing
The Curriculum Committee hearing
next Wednesday will offer students a
chance to speak on a subject dear to
our hearts -college requirements.
The Committee has worked hard all
year to get opinions from all seg
ments of the campus, but the response
has sometimes been enough to dis
courage anyone.
There is continual talk about the
subject of useless requirements, but if students don't speak now while they
have a chance, they will have no
legitimate excuse to gripe later.
Possible changes that will be dis
dussed include dropping all require
ments, substituting test scores and
changing the Civ sequence and empha
sis. These may not seem terribly
important this week, but someday
they will be and we urge your at
tendance.

Persian Overseas Group Studying
Variety, Movement of Local Tribes
by Phillip Scott
Much of the history of ancient

tribal movement.s. Today. in a
oation of about 25 mllllon people,
mere ;ire close to 5 mUllon no
madic tribesmen. Our knowledge
of this sltuation was further en..
lightened by lranlan anthropolo
gist, Dr. Afshar, during a re
cent visit to the Social Research
center of Teheran.
Or. Afshar has spent mucb of
the last few yous living among
tho tribes and accompanying them
on their seasonal mlgractons. His

Along tile Caspian area Is the·
GuUeks. Their number Is now
dv.•lndlh~.. but one can stlll see
remnsnts of these stole tribes.
Occupying an area from the
fentral Persian desert to tile Pak

tribes, who base th<lr living on
camel herding and some agrfcul
rure.
LMog along the Russl811 border
from the Casptan Sea IO the area
of 1M' Kurds are the Turkomans,
whose physlcal features lndicate
their Mongolian origins, A typi
cal fe.arutt of the. dress of these
sbocp..hcrdlng people Is their
large. full lambskin hats.
The Turlcomans are cut off from
the! r numerou-s related tribes by the Russian border. and are furt.her
boxed In from migr.alion by other

particular problems for these
people. I Numbering about 200,000 In

an opponunity to see many mem

Doug Bell again showed his
abUlty to compete under pressure

Doug's 1s.o, 120-yarcl high hurclle

Northwest Conference representatlves me, In Salem last Sa111r.
dliy and two very interesting rul.lngs evolved wblch de$erve further
d.Jscusslon.. First, Willamette received a mlld "slap on the wrist"
for violating College Scholarship Service procedures. Secondly, the
number of league basketball games will be reduced lrom 18 to 12 for
tbe 1969-70 campaign.
One must severely criticize the representatives (as a whole) far
Its Inconsistency in rull~ oo llnanclal mlscakes toward athletes.
Last fall, the representatlves deal< Unf'leld an unprecedented, harsh
and nearly unbelievably cruel censorship. In an almost Identical
situation, Willamette's only censarsblp was declaring the player in
ellglble (or competition.
Obviously the WU decision meant a more lax attlrude toward fi
nancial blunders Involving athletes, but It Is J:w,dly the way to tell
Llnfleld we're sorry. pleas.e forgive us, it won't happen again. 1be
Irony of the whole controversy Is <hot Wlllamene was the school
wblcb called attendoo to Unfleld's financial ei,ror.
The second decision involved the NWC hoop season, wblch nor
mally has ea.ch team playing the other six teams three times. A(<or
next season. each team will play eec.h other only twice. This Is
