ASG President to be elected April first
by Dave Simpkins
Copy Editor
In the race to elect a new Presi­
dent of the United States, the
smaller presidential elections, like
our own Associated Student
Government, might get lost in the
shuffle. Even so, it is important
to note that our ASG presidential
candidates iare somewhat out of
the ordinary and should be
recognized for the efforts in their
campaigns.
Only two candidates i have
entered the ASG race this year
and with only a couple of days
left before the April 1 election,
they could be seen campaigning
their| little hearts out.
The | first candidate, the CCC
Frog, wasn’t very well known un­
til a staff writer on “The Print”
discovered he had come out of
hibernation a bit early this year
and decided to interview the CCC
Frog in the Feb. 12 issue of this
year.
C. Frog, as he likes to be call­
ed, was unsure about running in
the election this year, but he
decided that after spending more
than four years on campus wat­
ching the people and the college
grow, his knowledge might be a
benefit to CCC. “I’ve been sit­
ting here in this flower box for
quite a while now and I’ve seen a
lot of the goings-on around cam-
don’t believe in making promises
I can’t keep, but I would like to
get the budget stablized so that
we don’t have to have any more
of these levy elections, this last one
nearly killed me when some idiot
tried to put a lawn sign in my
flower box. He wasn’t looking
say: “I would really like to
become ASG President so that I
can give something back to this
institution that has given me a
great four years.”
The second candidate has just
recently returned to CCC after
being away for several years. The
C. Frog (I) and Cougar (r) make the ASG presidential race a bit more interesting this year,
pus.”
When asked if he had any
special campaign “promises” for
the election, C. Frog said, “I
fia/n. rain, and more rain...
where he was sticking that thing
and he nearly pierced my little
body!”
In closing, C. Frog had this to
Qackamas Cougar arrived this
year in time for the second men’s
basketball game at home. He
looked a little shabby at first, but
halfway through the season he
had a facelift and has recovered
quite nicely.
Although his campaign has
been running very strongly with
the CCC basketball rally helping
out, Cougar does not believe he
has room to slow down in his
campaigning, “I’ve read the story
about the turtle beating the hare
and although, I’m no big friend
to any rabbits, I’m not about to
let some reptile beat me in any
race.”
When asked about why he
thought his campaign has been
running so well so far Cougar
said, “The girls (the CCC rally)
have been a big help. They
managed to extend the spirit they
had on the court to my cam­
paign. Besides that, sometimes it
pays to have a little sex scandal
on the side to get people to notice
you.”
To conclude Cougar said that,
“If I win this election I plan to
bring a little spirit back to this
school. It’s pathetic, the lack of
enthusiasm people have here at
dances, sports, and other events.
People need to get more involv­
ed.”

Campus floods
by Hedeena Venstra
Former Editor-in-Cheif1
Recent heavy rains caused widespread flooding at
^Clackamas Community College. The college administration
has spent emergency funds acquired from the state on
some rafts that will enable students, staff, and faculty to get
across campus. It is difficult to know how long the water
will remain, but while it’s here CCC has gotten together a
sizable swim team.

“It all began when Kneel got
his computer,” Pol Kilo, Student
Programs Spesialist, sayd.
Asking Kilo what all began
with the apeerence of the kom­
puter, Kilo replayed without
hestitation, “speling problems.”
“One day Kneel walked into
my offise with the mannual and
sayd ‘Gee Pol, this is neet, with
this Komputer I can create my
own programms.’ Not knowing
what kind of programs he ment I
asked him, and Kneel answered
genioeslie “A spel check!”
Acording to Deby Bakker, Stu­
dent Govnermant adviser, it all
seemd like a good idea at the
time. “Kneel was very an-
thuseastik about programing his
komputer. I thaught he woold
have a nice korrekt speling pro-
gram.
Did the komputer realy help
Frothinghem? “No, apsolutelie
not! I thaught Kneel was a good
speler, but this program got him
totalie convused. Becoss of this
masjeine he can’t even spell the
simpelest words right,” Bakker
ekspressed.
“He somehowe lost it,” Kilo
stated. He added that speling
korrektlie fore a ASG presidant is
a crusial task, espesialy since
everieboddy reads Frotingham’s
memoes and letters.
Kolege Presidant Jon Kiezer
ekspresed his fealings about this
by saying, “no comant!” Asking
Heleen Veenstra, Former Editor-
in-Chief of “The Print” for her
oomant she concluded, “How
would you like to get memos with
your name and function spelled
incorrectly?”
