Wilderness photographer and mountaineer Galen Rowell will present a slide show on "Skiing the Karakoram Himilayas" at 7:30 p.m. in the EMU Ballroom. Rowell, whose photographs are known to readers of National Geographic, National Wildlife and Sports Illustrated, recently returned from the highest ski-tour in history, 285 miles across the Karakoram Range of the Himilayas. The dual-screen show ties together the history, wildlife, cultures and Rowell's past travels in the range, including an attempt on the world’s second highest mountain, K2, and the first ascent of the Great Trango Tower. Rowell, a free-lance pho tojournalist since 1972, also is conducting a workshop on out door photography at 2:30 p.m. in the EMU Forum Room.

Kuroda from the University of California at San Diego will speak on "Cur rent Trends in Transformational Grammar" today at 3:30 p m. in Room 201 Condon Hall Let your feet make aplace for themselves. I Feet in the sand make footprints. Feet in Birkenstock footwear do the very same thirty. The Birkenstock foot bed is heat and pressure sensitive, to mold to your foot, and become your footprint. So walking in Birkenstock is a lot like walking barefoot in the sand, with one very convenient difference. You can walk in Birkenstock all year long.
