University archaeologist
brings Indiana Jones to life
A special presentation
hopes to link the movie
with a real-life scientist
By G. Jaros

Treasure maps and whips are the
tools of some movie archaeologists,
and real life archaeologist Dennis
Jenkins will be surrounded by both
during a special show for the young
and young-at-heart this weekend.
University archaeologist Dennis
Jenkins will be givinga presentation
before a special 11 a.m. showing of
"Raiders of the Lost Ark" at Regal
Springfield Cinemas on Saturday
morning. The special event will in
clude demonstrations and prizes.
Springfield Cinemas’ manager
Jay Fullmer asked Jenkins to give
the presentation so that children
can learn what real-life archaeolo
gists do.
Jenkins will show slides of Uni
versity students doing field studies
as well as talk about the University’s
archaeological field school.
“What I want to get across to the
kids is that archaeology is fun, but it
requires discipline,” Jenkins said.
“In other words, it has to be done in
the right way so as not to destroy the
archaeological sites that we study.”
Jenkins is co-director of the ar
chaeology and geoarchaeology
field school in the anthropology
and geography departments. He is
also on the faculty of the Universi
ty Museum of Natural History.
Jenkins hopes to get across to the
kids how archaeologists visualize
what was here before, how people
acted and what they did, he said.
Springfield Cinemas occasion
ally plans big celebrations around
certain movies, Fullmer said.
“Raiders” is the movie they’ve re
ally been wanting to show.
“The bulk of employees at the
theater are totally in love with the
movie,” Fullmer said. "It took us a
while to get this movie because
there are only two prinks available.”
The lobby of the movie theater
will be decorated with Indiana
Jones material, including a model
of the Ark of the Covenant, the
prize searched for by Indiana and
the Nazis in the movie.
Jenkins' presentation will be
followed by a stunt group from
Springfield High School called
“Nice Girls With Whips.” They
will perform various stunts in
cluding extinguishing candles us
ing their 8- to 12-foot whips.
Following the stunt show will
be a prize drawing for kids who
correctly answered questions
from a special treasure hunter’s
map that can be picked up this
week at the movie theater or the
Museum of Natural History.
Many try for ASUO presidency
A sidewalk campaign
brought out the large
number of candidates
By Sarah Skidmore
Oregon Daily Emerald
A surprisingly large number of
ASUO presidential candidates have
turned out for this year’s spring elec
tion. On March 12, the official dead
line to file for candidacy, there were
23 applicants for president. After
the mandatory candidate meeting
Tuesday, there are 11 candidates.
Only two of the presidential can
didates are choosing to have a run
ning mate. Dan Reid is running with
Matt Swanson, and Wylie Chen is
running with Mitra Anoushiravani.
The other candidates are: Bran
don Hartly, William Beutler, Melis
sa Logan, Ed Madrid, Tamir
Kriegel, Brandon Smith, Nick
Bostic, Michael Atkinson and Brett
Betin. If a candidate without a vice
president wins, he or she is free to
appoint one following the election.
Kriegel and friend Jonathan Col
legio recruited the majority of the
candidates to run, said Taylor
Sturges, ASUO elections coordina
tor. The pair positioned themselves
in front of the University Bookstore
and collected signatures from po
tential presidential contenders.
“If they are just sort of goofing
off about it, it is a waste of a lot of
people’s time who are involved in
the election,” Sturges said of the
recruited candidates. "Also, it
kind of takes away from the peo
ple who are serious. But if they are
serious, more power to them. ’’
Neither Kriegel nor Collegio
could be reached for reaction.
The spring elections will be
held April 14-15 and 21-22 from 9
a.m. to 5 p.m. Taylor said she
hopes to have a larger voter
turnout than last year’s 20 percent
of students voting.
“It is really important for stu
dents to vote,” Sturges said.
“Many students don’t realize how
much power they have. It is im
portant for students to get some
one in there they trust.”
