lssue 27, Volume XXXI FRESNO, CALIFORNIA May 12,1977

Only 8 ccnd¡deites filefor ASB Senote electionsAnticipating "a swarm of

petitions at five minutes to five"Tuesday, ASB President DaveSchroeder's faith in the systemwas not borne out.

Onìy eight people filed to runfor Senate spots by the 5 p.m.Tuesday deadline. Thirteen posi-tions - four officers and nineSenate seats - are open andcampaigning is scheduled to starttoday.

All but two of the studentswho filed for the May 17 18 ASBelection did so at the last minute.Schroeder said he did not expectan extension o{ the filingdeadline. With nine seats alreadYfiìled by senators not uP forreelection, only five new PeoPleare required for a quorum.

Names oi'the candidates werewithheld pending verification oftheir eligibility by Elections

Commissioner Sylvia Lester.Also, write-in candidates maypetition until the day before theelection.

In Senate action Tuesday,$1,332 was appropriated to honorthe wrestling and golf teamswith jackets for their conferencevictories. Also, an off-campusdance which would have cost$1,200 was called off.. Senators earlier refused a

wrestling team request forjackets because they felt theexpenditure is the college dis-trict's responsibility. They re-lented Tuesday when AthleticDirector Hans Wiedenhoeferargued "those kids won thechampionship two months agoand still don't have jackets. Ifthey are fitted now they stillwon't have them until JulY"' he

added.Wiedenhoefer argued that the

ASB was tradition-bound tohandle the cost. "Times change_,'lretorted President Pro TemMerrit Dickson, Schroeder, andseveral others. The district thisyear took over responsibility forathletic events and gets moneyfrom the proceeds which in thepast was claimed by ASB. ASBmoney shold now be exemptfrom going to athletic awards,they said.

The district was approachedfor funds with no success. Theofficial position, as stated in aletter to the Senate, is thatathletic awards should not bepaid for by tax dollars.

The motion, which provides$932 for the wrestlers and $400for the golf team, contained thestipulation "this will not bindnext year's Senate to fundrthletic events."

Aworeness Doy seeks toincreqse pu blic insight

Fresno City College studentswill have an opportunity toexperience what it is like to bephysically handicapped nextWednesday (May 18) when theEnabler Services sponsorsAwareness Day.

Awareness Day, part of theNational Handicapped Aware-ness Week May 16-20, willinclude a wheelchair basketballtournament, films, a blind walk, achance to experience a ride in awheel chair, and a grass rootsband sponsored by the Associated Student Body, EnablerServices director Gary Grahamsaid.

"The purpose of the tourna-

ment is twofold," he said. 'Toshow that wheel chair basketballis a competitive sport and todraw attention to AwarenessDay."

The planned blind walk willallow students to get a feeling ofwhat it is like to maneuver oncampus without sight. Studentswill be led by assistants.Students riding in the wheel-chairs can find out what it is liketo get around on campus withthat mobility problem.

Graham said the idea is. forstudents to find out "what they(handicapped students) can and

can't do."Half thb $2,840 needed is to be

furnished by the Student Senatewith the stipulation that "match-ing funds come from othersources," according to the Stu-dent Senate motion on the event.Graham said he expects theother $1,420 to come fromvarious community services or-ganizations.

The presentation will run from10 a.m. until 3 p.m. with thewheel chair basketball game atnoon. The main exhibition will bein the Free Speech Area betweenthe Student Center and theCafeteria.

It's colorfuì, it's exciting, it'sIndian.

This is Indian Culture weekand the NatÍve American IndianStudent Alliance has a display ofIndian artifacts that is breath-taking.

There are paintings, sculpture,,turquoise jewelry and dailydemonstrations of basketweav-ing and rugweaving. All this canbe seen in the art gallery inAH-101 from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m,-Thursday, and from 8 a.m. to 5p.m. Friday.

Francys Sherman, director ofthe Sierra Mono museum atNorth Fork, opened the exhibitwith a prayer.

"My mother was Indian andmy father was German. I learnedto speak Indian and so did myfather. I am a descendant of theMono tribe at North Fork."

Sherman said she will be inLos Angeles May 19 and 20 torepresent the California Indianand will bring samples of foodand medicine used by her people.

Kathi Vining, president of theNative American Indian Allianceat FCC, also comes from theMono tribe. She is majoring inarchitecture and is a Deercounselor at the EOP officô.

"At times," she said, "Indianstudents do have difficultyadjrr.iing to a different way oflife r,han they have known,especially if they have grownup on a reservation."

"This is not a problem," sheadded, "if they have been born

and reared in Fresno or othercities."

She said the main problem ofIndian students is financial.

Sandy Hardgrave, second yearstudent, is studying forestry andwill transfer to Humboldt Uni-versity after next year. Shecomes-from the Mono tribe atNorth Fork.

Elizabeth\herman is planninga career in medical secretarialscience. She is working with theexhibit and is from the NorthFork Mono tribe.

Clyde Mathews, civiì rightsspeaker from Washington, D.C.,wilì be here Thursday from 7p.m. to 9 p.m.

Friday, the San Jose EagleFeather Dancers, and the BayArea Drum (Mockingbird) willentertain. Judy Six, silversmith,from the Cherokee will be there,as wiìl FCC student RalphCayedito, Navajo, singer, DennisBanks, noted American Indianspeaker and Ben Lucero, speakeron higher education for Indians.

Chief Sealth of the DuwanishTribe wrote these worüs in aletter to President FranklinPierce in 1855.

"There is no quiet place in thewhjte man's cities. No place tohear the leaves of spring or therustle of insect wings."

"And what is there to life if aman cannot hear the lovely cry ofthe whippoorwill, or the argu-ments of the frogs around thepond at night?"

This spiritual feeling fornature is powerfully representedin the pairitings and other objectsof art in the exhibit.

The County Health Depart-ment has organized inoculationlines once more as Fresnoprepares for a new epidemic, ofGerman measles.

"We've had 20 cases of rubella(German Measles) and two casesof rubeola here at City Collegesince the latter part of April,"said FCC Nurse MargaretMcBride. "The two diseases havereached near epidemic propor-tions in Fresno County since thelatter part of April."

Rubella. or German measles. is

the milder of the two but hasserious effects on the fetuses ofpregnant women. The secondform, rubeola, is more pro-nounced but has the samesymptoms as its mate.

In both diseases a rashdevelops around the head areaand then spreads to the trunk,hwere it stays anywhere fromtwo to six days. Cold-likesymptoms accompany the rash,and fever can be expected aswell.

"Any student with a rash

should stay home until he seeshis doctor to determine whetherhe has the measles," commentedMcBride. "If it is determined thatit is measles, he should contact usimmediately."

Immunization is not necessar:yif you have previously contractedthe disease. If you have not, youmay obtain a free inoculation att,he Fresno County HealthDepartment at 515 South CedarAve., Monday through Fridayfrom 9 to 3.

Lindo líkes low enforcèmen!--where odye îIurtAt one time, Linda Pena was

the only female enrolled at the'State Center Peace OfficersAcademy at FCC.

Now there are none.No, Linda didn't drop out.

Quite the contrary-as of Tues-day, she bec¿me the first womanto successfully complete theaeademy's proÊFam.

"Now I'll get out and put inap-plications," she said. "Hope-fully, soneone will want me.'1

Pena,, 22, has been in the lawenforcellent program since highsehool. "I wanted to be â lawyer,but that takes too much time,"she explained. "This was thenext closest thing."

Far from settling for secondbest, Pena is totally- enthusiasticabout her chosen eareer. ,.[t'sexciting, it's different-no twodays are alike," she said. ,.It'svery rewarding, especially whenyou come through for people."

Being the only female enrolled¡roved to be no big deal forrither Pena or the males at, thercademy. "The guys are great,"rhe laughed. "They treat me likerne of them, but also ìike a'emale."

the program covers manyaspects of police work: criminallaw, defense tactics, juvenile Iaw,and others. The students aregraded on fire arms, first aid.CPR, physical training, inspec-tton, and exams.

In physical training, Pena hadno trouble making the grade.Average in height and weight,she'can lift 110 lbs. l0 times, do40 "men's" pushups, situps, andhas no problem with the 440.

"I've always been athleticallyincline," she shrugged.

The.hazzards of the job itselfhave not dampened her determi-nation. "I'm sure everyone has alittle fear. even men. You can'tlet that bother you, but on theother band, you can't becomecomplacent."

Olympíc hopeful McIeor líkes

fo 'fqke things qs they come'By David Couleo¡

. "I believe in taking things asthey come." This is the philo-sop.hy 9_f record brea-kingsprinter Houston McTear and ltreveals itself when he steps onthe track.

In the recent lVest CoastRelays, running the anchor leg ofthe 440 yard relay for SantaMonica City College, he broughthis team from about 20 yardsdown to win by abgut five yards.Coming from the middtq of thetrack McTear exploded past therest of the field with his powerfulstrides.

As he got about 10 yards fromthe finish he threw his arms inthe air and turned to see hisopponents watch him coast intothe tape for the victory.

Houston said of his escapadesat the finish, "When I know I'vewon the race I like to put on alittle show for the people in thecrowd."

That is about as cocky asMcTear gets. A friend of thedown to. earth athlete said,"Houston is really a greatperson, he takes everything instride." And whereas mostathletes are looking to pick up afast buck, McTear is content withjust running. "I run for fun, Inever want to run just. formoney."

And naturall¡' when thesubject of money comes up, sodoes the pro track circuit.McTear says of pro track, "Thereisn't any future in it, Ill neverrun for the pro track circuit."

Instead of worrying aboutmoney, Houston has his sightsset ön breaking records. "I'dliketo bust the records for the 100and 200 meters. Those are mygoals."

The 20 year old ex-Fldridianhas become fond of the WestCoastand its sunny weather, butthe weather at the West CoastRelays wasn't to his liking."When it's cold like this, it'sharder to run. This is what youcall muscle-pulling weather."

He also doesn't like theabundance of dirt tracks inCalifornia. "I prefer to run onartificial surfaces, because youdon't have to worry aboutgetting dirt in your face whenyou run."

Many people thought McTearhad the inside track for the goldmedal in the 100 nieter dash atlast year's Summer Olympics inMontreal. But he pulled ahamstring muscle just weeksbefore the games and HasleyCrawford went on to win theevent.

Will McTear run in the 1980games in Moscow? He answeredwith a laugh, "I'll go to theOlympics if I'm still alive, but Idon't like to plan things very farin the future."

So Houston MeTear will "takethings as they come," and keephis eyes on the record book.

JC events exc¡ting in 5oth wC ReloysA strong, competitive field of

athletes made the 50th annualWest Coast Relays one of themost exciting, despite high windsand cold weather.

Fresno's Ratcliffe Stadium hasbeen the site of the meet since itsbeginning in 1927, but seldomhas the meet been morecompetitive.

Part of the excitement wasthe running of sprinter HoustonMcTear. McTear showed thecrowd the form that has setrecords, as he ran a stronganchor leg in the junior college440 yard relay for Santa MonicaCity College, his team winningthe event with ease.

Also exciting was the juniorcollege 3000 yard steeplechase. Arunner from Peru representingPorterville College, JoaquinLoano, ran perhaps the best raceof the meet, breaking the meetrecord for the event by almostseven seconds.

Another record breaking per-formance was that of LucLaPerriere in the junior collegejavelin. LaPerriere threw thejavelin over 262 feet to set a newmeet mark.

Fresno City didn't fare as well.The Rams'best finish in the meetwas a second place. Eddie Tategot that in the triple jump, andadded a fifth in the long jump.

Anthony Washington won hisheat ofthe 120 yard high hurdlesbut finished a disappointingseventh in the finals after leadingthrough the first 60 yards. Polevaulter Stan Reyes capturedfifth place in the pole vault, with ajump of 15-3.

The Ram distance medleyrelay team was in third placewhen Al Lara dropped the baton,and the team ended in adisappointing seventh place.

Other outstanding efforts inthe meet were displayed byDerrel Harris, Clancy Edwards,James Robinson, and Al Feuer-bach. Harris set a junior collegemeet record with a 10.3 in the100 meter dash, and Edwardstook the open 100 with a time of10.38.

Robinson trailed the field earlyin the open 800 meter run, buttook the lead in the last 100meters to win the race. Feuer-baeh won the shot put with aheave over 67 feet.

Al I'euerbach displays dneof his rneet-winning tosses.

1By Roger Lucio

"I love a happy life, a secondlife. I can go to see'love now,something I could not do before."These are the words ofa contentminister attending FCC, the Rev.Bruce Haynes.

Although many think timesare hard now in contrast to manyyears'ago, it is puch simpler'now, according to Haynes. ForHrynes, 53, early life was indeeda hardship.

He recalls his younger days inMississippi where he attended ashaek schoolhouse near his home."Just q few boards and nails keptit from falling down."

When Haynes w&s 10, hisfather died, and Haynes had toleave sehool tò help his familf. Aveteran of \ilorld tr¡ar II, Haynescame to Fresno in 1949.

In 1970 Haynes was struck bya heart attack. Putting his faithin God, he decided that he wouldp¡each. Haynes felt it would be

,good for him. But, he wmted tostart_ out for himself, feeLhg hecould learn.

"I just madè a vow to the- Lord." He is now an associate'minister at Mount Pleasant

Baptist Church in Fresn'o. Thism¿rked ¿ new beginning forHaynes. Feeling the ñeed fõr selfimprovement and knowledge, hesought it.

Haynes became interested insehobl by attending an off-campus speech class. He had afriend that kept at him aboutgoing back to sehool.

Gene Shimizu will never forgetthose memorable years heattended Fresno City College in196&70.

TVhen you mention "football"he gives a big smile and says,"those were the best years of mylÍfe." Shimizu was "Big Man onCampus" at Clovis High and incollege, even though he was only.... 5 feet ¿nd 3 inehes t¿ll.At his place .pf business,

"I always wanted to playprofessional football when I wasin school, but the higher you getinto football, the harder it was onus small guys."

Gene added, "Football was thething at that time. Winning had alot to {o with it as far aspopularity. It makes you raiseyour head a little higher, which Ilooked back and thought waskind of dumb." He was a runningback.

"It seems like after ClovisHigh, the guys got bigger,stronger, and faster. It wasreally weird, because I was thesmallest, but I always thought Icould outmaneuver a bigger guy.I was fast and- they hit a lot

harderthan high school .. . . but,I enjoyed being with the team."

Being short had advantagesand disadvantages. Gene was

appreciated by the FCC footballcoaches. "All the coaches wereexcellent. they knew who I wasand they let me train.

"I became the eaptain in mysecond year. 'We went toAnaheim Stadium and won the

'White Rock'bqsedon W¡nter OlympicsBy David Couleon

Rick Wakeman is generallyconsidered one of the bestprogressive keyboard playels ontoday's music scene. And withhis latest album, "White Rock,"he shows the style that has woncritical acclaim.

Although he is not a llashymusician like some of hiscounterparts such as KeithEmerson, Wakeman has beensuccessful with his own stylewhich is that of a very smoothkeyboardist.

The album itself is thesoundtrack from the movie of thesame name. Boththe film and çhemusic relate to the 1976 WinterOlympics at Innsbruck, Austria.

They deal with seven differentOlympic sports: the 90 meter skijump, the biathlon, the luge, thebobsled, the downhill skiing

event, ice hockey, and figureskating.

As you sit and listen to themusic (the only vocals are thehumming of a background choiron two of the eight albums cuts)you can almost envision theevents taking place in front ofyou. The music goes with eachindividual sport that well.

Wakeman seems to do betterby forgetting the lyrical aspect ofhis music. This is definitely hisbest album since "The Six Wives'ôf.$enry VIII," that being hisonly other album to be strictlymusrc.

This also may be his last soloalbum. The musician has rejoinedthe group "Yes," and I'm sure thegroup will be the better becauseof it.

This aìbum is so good that Ican hardly rvait to see the movie,and find out iI what I've beenseeing in my mind's eye is reallyindicative.

lreinia ns irate over Eickmannart¡cle, then explain ccuse

On March 24, there rvas anarticle written under the title of .

"ISA, Iran Student group wantshomeland democracy," by LoriEickmann, as an interview with .

someone who introduced himselfas an' ISA (Iranian StudentsAssociation) member. The articlewas full of false information, and,in some cases, a reactionaryposition of the ISA, and did notstate anything about the ongoingsituation in lran. We believe thatneither the editor nor the staffshould interview just anyonewho claims to be an ISA member,without consulting with any of ,

the ISA secretaries.The Confederation of Iranian

Students National Union(CISNU) has long been the solevoice of opposition outside lran.It is an open, democratic,anti-imperialist organization thataims at exposing the reacùionarynature of the Shah's regime I

among the people of the world,especially in Europe and the U.S.Outside Iran, CISNU is the voiceof the Iranian people, who are soheroically struggling againsttyranny and oppression. Itechoes the cry of the mutilatedpolitical prisoners who, withphenomenal courage, withstandthe tortures of the Shah'sexecutioners. CISNU strugglesto make the people of the worldaware of the plundering of Iranat the hands of the U.S. andother corporate powers.

Through demonstrations, con-ferences, cultural programs anddistribution of literature, CISNUworks to mobilize internationalpublic opinion in support of thestruggle of the Iranian people forliberation, and their aspiraùionsfor a free and democratic lran.Correlating to CISNU activities,the Northern California ISA inFresno had organized ä massivedefense campaign to hold aconference, and invited inter-national observer, Mrs. NancyHoromecea, from the NationalLawyer's Guild to Fresno.

Mrs. Horomecea was sent to'Iran to observe the unbearableconditions of the Iranian politicalprisoners, as well as the situationof the Iranian people ùhrough along period of unlimited hungerstrikes and demonstrations byCISNU members around theworld.

This program was successfullyaccompìished and took the issueof Iranian political prisonersamong the American public. Weare determined to have moremassive activities with theco-operation and participation ofour American friends against therea.ctionary regime of the Shah,and his imperialist masters.

We say, "Let's stand together,

let's fight together, let's showthat the final victory belongs tothe masses, and this is anirresistible trend o[ history."

(Editor's note-This letter hasbeen condensed from a muchlarger version sent by the ISAgroup al CSU, Fresno.)

Poll bios?This semester we haven't

nol,iced a sufficient number ofblacks, nor a good cross-sectionof students represented in yourarticles, or student polls.

This statement may seemrather unfair, but it is quite true.We are not sure of your policyregarding this matter, howeverif you (The Rampage) wouldmake it a point to include thetrue mixture of the student racesin your interviews, we woulddeeply appreciate it.

Blacks are involved in other.student activities, and areknowledgeable on other subjectsbesides sports. If you agree withlhis statement, make it, a point toadopt this attitude in your futurearticles, not only for blâcks butfor all naces.

Old bu ildins

It is impossible to calcuìate thehistoric and sentimental value ofthe old FCC AdministrationBuilding. People in their teens totheir 70's have unforgetablememories of this beautiful placeof learning and fellowship.

I think thal, there are a lot ofpast and present students thatwould like to vote out someofficials if the old FCC Adminis-tration Building gets torn down.It would be nice for a change ifone demolition contract on anhistoric Fresno building was notcarried out.
