Bus lines may begin shuttle run
A study is being made
by North Coast Bus Lines to
examine the feasibility of
providing bus service to
Port Angeles from Sequim
and other areas.
The study is the result
of interest shown at a
meeting held at Peninsula
College May 19 to explore
student transportation
needs. Larry Ullstrom, a
representative from NCBL,
is also interested in providing transportation daily
for the elderly and handicapped in outlying areas.
A possible schedule
may be to leave Sequim at
7:30 a.m.; leave Port Angeles at 12 p.m.; leave
Sequim again at 1 p.m.;
and leave Port Angeles for
the day at 4 p.m.
Interested students
should see Art Feiro, dean

College considers easement
“Any easement should
be beneficial to the college,” said Peninsula College President Paul Cornaby
about the property easements discussed during the
PC Trustees meeting held
May 17.
Dr. Cornaby told the
board he has requested
access into the campus
across property belonging
to Bonneville Power. This
property borders college
land on the west. He also
said developer Johnie Key
wants to obtain a 30-footwide right of way through
college property for a sewer
line.
The Bonneville access
would open the back area of
the college to development,
said Dr. Cornaby. A loop
could be established
around the campus and
parking lots created on the
periphery, allowing easier
pedestrian movement
through the main portion of
the campus.
“I don’t like pedestrians in major traffic areas
— That’s why the area to
the north of the campus has
been blocked off,” said Dr.
Cornaby. He added that the
access would also allow the
college the option of future
expansion to the south or
into the present parking lot
on Lauridsen Boulevard.
Dr. Cornaby said the prospects of Bonneville Power
granting the easement
“look good.”
Key plans to develop
55 acres which has recently been annexed to the city
and he needs the easement
in order to tie into the city
sewer system.
“The college probably
won’t grant an easement to
benefit Johnie Key unless
there is a distinct advantage for the college,” said
Dr. Cornaby.
One advantage is that
development of college property to the south would
require a major overhaul of
the sewer line which granting a right of way to Key
would solve. He would be
required to lay 12-inch pipe
in place of the existing
four-inch pipe.
A representative of the
college’s architectural firm
explained to the board that
a disadvantage is that no
permanent structure can be
built over an easement.
The trustees are now
studying four options for
the easement. Granting the
easement would also require approval by the State
Board for Community College Education, said Dr.
Cornaby.
Cathy Logg named 78-79 Buc editor
Cathy Logg will be the
1978-79 Buccaneer editor,
Buccaneer advisor Earl
Clark announced on May
22. Cathy has been on the
Buccaneer staff all this
year, and also is editor of
Peninsula College’s literary
magazine, Tidepools. She
is also a recipient of the
Edward and Charles Webster Memorial Award for 1978. The award is for
journalism and creative
writing.
Cathy is a 1967 graduate of Northeast High
School in St. Petersburg,
Fla. There she was editorial
editor of the school’s paper,
the Nor’Easter. Cathy now
lives in Port Townsend and
commutes to PC.
Coming from a mediabased family Cathy, has
done a lot of public relations work in her father’s
advertising business. Cathy
said, “I used to help out
with the formats, run errands, go to meetings. I
want a career which combines free lance writing
with advertising.”
Cathy said living in
Port Townsend will probably affect her job opportunities because the Port
Townsend Leader does not
have the funds or capacity
for her type of work. She
also commented she had no
immediate plans to move.
Present Buccaneer editor, Jenny Christensen
said. “Cathy will be a real
shot in the arm for the
Buccaneer next year. She is
a little older than the last
few editors have been and
has some very strong opinions which hopefully will
stir PC up. Cathy has
already proven to be very
capable and very reliable
this past year.
Randy Blank picked IM athlete of the year
By ISAAC SHERMAN
Randy Blank has been
chosen to be the recipient
of the Intramural Athlete of
the Year Award for 1977-78 Randy, who turns 20
this month, was chosen for
this award not only because
of his athletic ability, but
also his desire to have fun
and meet people through
competition, and good
sportsmanship.
Randy, a native of Port
Angeles, has been in several IM events throughout the
year and has won several.
He won the men’s
singles title in IM tennis
and won in mixed doubles.
He also won first place in
the badminton tournament
— both singles and doubles,
and was the winner in the
1-on-l basketball tournament. In flag football he
was on a team that finished
first.
Tennis is the sport that
Randy has had the most
experience in. In high
school he was the Number 1
seeded player on the tennis
team for two years, and
went to state competition
one year in which he placed
seventh in doubles.
Randy believes the PC
IM program is a good one,
but it could work even
better with a little more
enthusiasm.
“PC had one of the
best IM programs in the
state. When Nancy came
she brought change and
some people didn’t want to
conform to it; therefore IM
suffered this year,’’ says
Randy.
He affirms that Director Nancy Meinke came to
PC with new ideas on how
the program should be run
but was hindered by “some
students who didn’t really
try to make things work.’’
“Some got frustrated
and bagged it.’’ says
Randy.
“Nancy’s got her own
ideas on how she want the
program run and it will take
a little while to really get it
going.’’ Miss Meinke, who
chose Randy for the award,
believes that besides Randy’s athletic ability and
desire to have fun, he also
“seems to be very concerned with fair play and with
adjusting to the different
levels of participants.’’
She adds, “Randy has
been flexible and responsible in making the necessary
arrangements for the various tournaments. He has
shown leadership in organization and is always helpful with the equipment.
Randy plans next year
to attend Pacific Lutheran
Univeristy where he will be
a junior majoring in business administration and
minoring in computer
science.
“I like the small college atmosphere rather than
a big college. That’s why
I’m going to PLU next year.
It’s a little closer knit. You
get to know people easier,”
explains Randy.
PLU has a good tennis
program, Randy says. Last
year PLU placed eighth in
the N.A.I.A., and he knows
he will have to work harder
there than at home.
The winner of the IM
Athlete of the Year award
has his name inscribed on a
trophy that is kept in the
display case in the PUB. A
plaque with his picture also
will be displayed there.
Nancy feels Randy is
deserving of this award and
states:
“Randy has been particularly helpful to me this
year. His comments and
criticisms have been constructive toward improving
the intramural program. He
has also been a leading
promoter of the program by
encouraging and including
participants. Randy is very
deserving of this recognition.”
Climbing class survives journey to Mt. Angeles
“I like the adventure
and learning the techniques,’’ says Nancy
Meinke about Ron Crawford’s mountaineering
class. “I love it,” she adds,
“. . . it’s really fun!”
The mountaineering
class takes a trip once a
week. Two weekends ago,
the class went on a survivial
outing on Mt. Angeles.
They then went crosscountry to the Little River
and spent the night with
only their day packs. They
made shelters out of wood
and built a fire. They
couldn’t eat except what
they found in the woods.
Last weekend, they
went to Mt. St. Helens and
camped. Due to heavy
storms they came home
early. Nancy says it was a
good lesson in judgment
and what to do during
stormy conditions.
The class had ropes
hanging from the ceiling in
the classroom to practice
what to do if trapped in a
crevasse.
After school is out, the
class will have one last
climb, of Mt. Olympus.
In defense of Meinke
By RICK ROSS
Nancy Meinke’s first year as Peninsula College
intramural director is over. The change from previous
years with Jon Livingston being IM director brought about
controversy in the fall and early winter quarters. Many
students and faculty members were complaining and
knocking down her efforts as she was setting up the
program.
I was one of these students who didn’t like the way
she set things up. I made my opinion known, writing a
column in the Buccaneer about how the rules of IM
volleyball were in violation of title IX. There was a valid
technicality which was an infringement, but along with
everything else this year, volleyball turned out to be a lot
of fun.
According to sophomore Jay Bowen, who was
involved in last year’s intramural program, much of the
complaining is totally unnecessary. He said that although
Mr. Livingston’s program was a little more organized,
there has been a larger amount of student enrollment in
regular and additional sports.
For a college of Peninsula’s size, student participation is always a problem. Nancy has done a fine job in
encouraging students to sign up. The problem of “no
shows,” however, has been a serious factor this year,
complicating season schedules and playoff possibilities.
Much of the controversy this year involved coed
sports, varsity athlete participation and forfeit situations
in which people were “recruited.” This could have been
eliminated had the intramural board ever gotten together
and done something! Instead, Nancy was stuck with all the
decisions and consequently all the blame that went with
them.
Despite the first year problems in setting up a
program, Nancy handled it well, getting student opinion
and satisfying the majority. With a year of experience
under her belt, next year’s program may be the most
organized and complete PC has ever had.
Spring IM nears finish
The spring quarter intramural events are just
about wrapped up now.
Table tennis is one

at Western Washington
University next year.
Dan Hanify plays the
drums with the Stage Band,
the Lilejdahls and will be
traveling to Europe this
summer with the Pops
Choir for the Grand National Jazz Festival in Switzerland. The group will tour 25
cities in nine countries.
Sandie Hereld sings
and plays the saxophone.
She has been with the
Stage Band for two years
and is a member of the
choir and drama groups at
PC.
Editorial
‘Packing the jails’ didnt help their cause
With their May 22 and 23 demonstration the Live
Without Trident protesters said they wanted to call
attention to the United Nations special session on world
disarmament. However, it seems all they called attention
to was themselves, not their cause.
Beginning Sunday, May 21, between 3,000 and 4,000
protesters gathered outside the Trident nuclear submarine
base at Bangor. On both Monday and Tuesday about 300
demonstrators scaled the six-foot barbed wire fence for
the sole purpose of being arrested. Their plan was to
“pack the jails’’ to call attention to their opposition to
nuclear weapons.
As a result 292 people were arrested, with 265
charged with tresspassing [or re-entry for those who
participated on both days] and released on personal
recognizance bonds.
The protestors say they feel they have won a victory
for their cause—but for taxpayers, it is going to cost about
$367,500 to process the demonstrators through the courts.
Money is not the only court concern. The courts are
now clogged with the demonstrators’ trials which are
using up valuable time of the attorneys, lawyers and
judges, and preventing speedy trials for other more
important cases.
Before the protest began the Live Without Trident
group gave notice to all the area police, state patrol,
national guard and the media. In a sense this cost the local
people their protection while the forces were concentrating on the demonstration.
All total, the demonstrators seemed like more of a
hindrance to their cause than a help. Their actions have
not affected the United Nations special session.
The entire incident was fairly peaceful and organized,
however one cannot help but relate it to the late 1960’s
with its age of protests and demonstrations. Could this be
the beginning of a new era? And the fact that all were
released on their own recognizance seems to be a silent
form of permission and encouragement.
If demonstrations are to become a form of
acknowledgement, can the citizens of Port Angeles look
forward to this type of thing if and when an oil port comes
to town?
—Jenny Christensen

Letters
Saga thanks students
Editor, the Buccaneer:
Since the end of the
school year is almost here I
would like to take this
opportunity to thank the
many patrons of the snack
bar at Peninsula College.
My cooks tell me they
dream of “Pirates’’ and
chocolate chip cookies and
we hope you have enjoyed
them.
Out of all the promotions run this year I’m sure
the one that stands out the
most is the famous “Superhero glasses.” Graduating
students can always remember good old PC as
they pour their suds into
Batman or Robin. (I’ve still
got two cases of the monsters — make me an offer.)
This has been a good
year for the snack bar: sales
are good, new products
introduced, specials run;
and I’m looking forward to
an even better one next
year.
So to the graduating
students — good luck, to
returning students — see
you next year, and thank
you from Jeri, Marilyn,
Laurene, Barb, and me.

Food Service Director
Saga Food Service
Writer raps IM
Editor, the Buccaneer:
Who is running the
intramural board? The IM
members or Nancy Meinke
alone? Whose choice was
the IM Athlete of the year?
Why has there only been
two meetings of the Intramural Board all year? Why
hasn’t this board director
mentioned any of these
activities about the new
intramural director? What
is the basis of choosing the
IM Athlete of the year?
Maybe if Nancy
Meinke had listened to the
Intramural Board there
would have been a digression on the board. At least
three of the members on
the board have had prior
experience in the IM program.
While I have been
umpire for baseball, I have
found that many of the
“great” sportsmen are
very bad sportsmen.
– Eddie M. Allen
Dorm fees
Dorm fees will go up
$30 per quarter next fall,
according to James Lunt,
director of student activities.
Folk singing duo to perform free concert
The folk duo of Hardin
and Russell will perform at
noon tomorrow in a free
concert sponsored by the
Peninsula College Associated Students, in the Little
Theater.
Their latest album,.
“Ring of Bone,’’ has been
hailed in the publications
Rolling Stone and Billboard.
The duo of Tom Russell
and Patricia Hardin has
been performing their original music- for over four
years. Russell won the
professional country category in the 1974 American
Song Festival, the Woody
Guthrie Festival of Songs
award, and also won the
1975 New Writers award at
the Kerrville Folk Festival.
Hardin has won honors
for her writing at the
Kerrville Folk Festival, and
won the grand prize in the
1975 Kerrville country and
western song competition.
Before turning to popular
music, Hardin performed
for many years as a classical pianist; however she still
uses classical music in her
format. For example, she
uses a Bach introduction to
a song about truck drivers.
Finance aid available
Peninsula College offers two financial aid forms.
Students can apply for the
basic grant, or other campus programs such as workstudy, state need grants,
SEOG grants, BEOG grants
and tuition wavers.
“It is preferable that
students do not apply for
programs individually, but
for students to apply for
several, because if they are
not eligible for one program they could be eligible
for another,’’ says Jim
Lunt, director of student
activities.
Students can apply for
both F.A.F. programs or
for the basic grant. All this
information is on one form.
The results take six
weeks. The basic grant
results are returned to the
student and the F.A.F.
results go to the students’
college of their choice.
The second financial
aid form is the Institutional
F.A. form that the college
offers. It requires such
information as whether the
student has a degree, or
what the major is. The form
must be notarized, promising to use the funds that are
provided to the student for
educational purposes.
Music dept. gets organ
The Peninsula College
music department has purchased a new Allen Digital
organ at a cost of $10,855.
Dr. Pollard says the Allen
Digital organ is considered
to be one of the top two or
three brands.
There has been a delivery delay, but he expects
the organ to be delivered in
time for commencement.
Mrs. Graves will play for
the commencement exercises on June 11.
Dr. Pollard says the
new organ is versatile, a
classical teaching instrument as well as an entertaining instrument. It is
portable and can easily be
moved from the auditorium
to the gymnasium.
“I hope to find a
student who will perform at
college activities in the
gymnasium and auditorium
as well as at concerts and
recitals,’’ says Dr. Pollard.
Student Standout
Laughter factor for college actor
By DIANE HILL
“I like to act crazy and
make people laugh. If people feel good, then I feel
good. I would like to get
into some phase of show
business so I could make a
lot of money and give it
away . . . well … not all of
it.” Thus Ken Boynton as
he discusses his future.
Ken, a 20-year old,
and an upcoming PC graduate, plans to major in
communications when he
attends Eastern Washington University in a radiotelevision program next
fall.
He is looking at all the
possibilities of the media.
“I’d like to do it all. It
leaves more challenges
with more interesting
things to do,” Ken added.
The film production
group, SBASM has influenced Boynton greatly. In
“Cocky,” SBASM’s most
recent production, Ken
played the lead in the film.
SBASM consists of Gary
Allen, Steve Mclnnes, Lee
Smith, John Stucki and
Boynton. “These are four
of the premier guys in the
universe today,” he declares. Ken says that at the
moment the group is still
throwing ideas around for
the next film.
Comedy has been an
influence on Ken. “Lee
Smith and I in our senior
year were crazy our whole
year. We did comedy and
impressions,” he said. He
does “everyone’s favorite”
impression, Richard Nixon.
“Phil Churchley showed me you could grow up
and still be as crazy as you
are when you are young. I
really like Shawn Moore
and I am not just saying
that cause I am already
getting an ‘A’ in his class. I
also think that Sue Hammond is ‘bulquascious.’
Jack Estes is a good guy. I
enjoyed being in his classes,” Ken comments on
some of the PC faculty.
Ken has started to play
the guitar, and listens to
outstanding music such as
Al Stewart.
In high school Ken
played football, ran track
“and I almost played basketball.” Ken was a sportswriter for the Daily News
for two years.
“I can unequivocally
(that word is for Gary) say
that these two years at PC
have been the most fun of
my life,” Ken concluded.
Peninsula’s literary magazine is on sale
Tidepools, Peninsula
College’s annual literary
magazine,.is on sale now in
the bookstore for $1.
According to Marge
Avalon, faculty advisor,
“Tidepools is supposed to
be a means for creative
writers and artistic students to have an outlet for
their work. I’m sure there
are more people than we
have managed to reach, but
I don’t know what else to do
to reach them.”
Submissions for Tidepools have been collected
since fall quarter through
the English department
and Tidepools staff members. The magazine contains poetry, short stories,
essays, photography and
artwork by PC students.
Betti Mundy, co-editor
of Tidepools, says, “It’s
really been a pleasure to
work on the magazine. You
keep reading and reading
and all of a sudden you find
something that’s really
good. It’s like a treasure
hunt. You get the feeling of
being the discoverer of
someone who really can
write.”
An editorial board
member, Irma Lindsay,
says, “We try to put in as
many authors as possible,
maintain a variety of serious and light writing, and
select works that are really.
fine quality. It’s a learning
experience just being able
to read other people’s
writings and impressions
about things.”
Betti Mundy said the
biggest problem this year
was getting artwork and
photography.
“We made signs and
put them in. the art department and around the campus: we announced it in the
paper, and we asked the
English teachers to encourage their students to
turn things in to use. But
we still ended up with
students who said they
didn’t know about it after
the magazine came out,”
she said.
“This year’s magazine
contains 12 more pages
than last year’s but the
price is the same,” says
Carolyn. “It’s a good buy.”
During the first two
days Tidepools were sold,
some defective copies were
found. All copies were
subsequently checked and
the defective ones returned
to Jim Lunt’s office for an
exchange.
Museum gives lecture
Mrs. Grace Morgan of
the Seattle Art Museum

4 teachers get stipends
The Board of Trustees
has awarded summer stipends to four college instructors: Tom Wells, diesel mechanics, $500 to
attend Caterpillar training
school in Illinois; Ed Tisch,
biological science, $500 to
allow him to continue his
botanical study in the Olympic Mountains; Doug Gilleland, auto mechanics,
$500 to attend a training
school in Missouri, and
Ross Maloney, business
administration, $350 to take
a course in typewriter and
office machine repair in
Spokane.
The trustees voted to
give emeritus status to two
retired instructors: George
Galles, business administration, who taught at the
college from 1961 to 1977;
and Thelma Barnes, nursing, who taught from 1963
to 1975.
In other action the
board granted English instructor Margaret Holm
Spillane a one-year leave of
absence without pay. Mrs.
Spillane plans to use the
time in reevaluation, writing projects, catching up on
correspondence, traveling
and having time to spend
with her husband.
She said these two
years have been the longest
she has taught without a
break and a break is what
she needs to build up fresh
enthusiasm and have time
for creation of new ideas,
which she feels will in turn
be beneficial to her
students.
