ASG will be sponsoring a Deejay
every Friday in the Fireside Lounge
from 12 to 1 p.m.
Jason Gibson, an ASG stu
dent senator,has been appointed
the position of deejay. Gibson
wants to play compact discs be
cause they “make a clearer sound,”
he comments. He encourages
everyone to bring their own com
pact discs for a better variety of
music.
“It’s not a show,” Gibson
comments, “it’s just friends get
ting together, listening to some
tunes.”
Gibson said people can’t be
lieve how much differently he
dresses on Fridays than on other
days of the week when he works as
a salesman after school.
Gibson likes to make his job

fun by dressing a little “wild.”
“People ask me why I dress the
way I do,” Gibson said, *it*s the
only time lean wear what I want -
besides my parents were kind of
‘hippies’ and that’s where I got the
idea.”
Besides the way he dresses,
his deejay alter ego has an inter
esting name -Dr. Doob. “The name
came from a skate board team I’m
on named the Doobie Brothers,”
Gibson added. “People who know
me and then see me as Dr. Doob
often ask me about my split per
sonality,” Gibson laughed.
• The idea of having a deejay
came from the requests of the
students, according to Gibson.
Depending on the turn-out of
students, “the one hour could later
be extended,” Gibson said.
The music will be played in
the Fireside lounge “so it doesn’t
bother anyone,” added Gibson.
Currently, an older recorder
is being used to play the music. “A
new player is in the budget now,
however,” Gibson commented.
“We really need the students’
support to get the ball rolling,”
Gibson added, “we eventually want
to make it into a lot of people
having fun - a big party.”
If you like listening to music
and having a good time - and don’t
have any classes Fridays from 12
to 1 p.m., bringyour CDs and visit
Dr. Doob in the Fireside Lounge.

Future looks fruitful for the
Orchard Society Arboretum
By Dawn Kuehl
Staff Writer
The main object of the Home
Orchard Society Arboretum, ac
cording to Paul Xanthull, is to
Educate people on the growing of
fruit trees.
Dwarf fruit trees are the
focus Of Xanthall’s program at
Clackamas Community College.
They are called dwarf because they
are smaller in height and take up
less ground space. This way a person
does not need a large yard in order
to have fruit trees and the person
with an orchard will have room
for more trees.
The Environmental Learning
Center will be teaching a class on
growing dwarf fruit trees Spring
and Fall terms. This class will
explain “dwarfing” and “size con
trol” in some detail. It will also
indude such things as how to prune
a tree and the nutrients to use for
best production results, the time
to pick the best fruit and the uses
for it once it is picked.
The dass will also include trees
which growbest in the Northwest.
If a person cannot decide which
trees to grow, the arboretum has a
wide variety to choose from. The
trees range from common fruits
like apples and, plums to exotic
fruits such as kiwi. One can per
sonally research trees by watching
them grow and then actually ta$t
ing the fruit when ripe.
Anyone in the community that i
would like to learn about trees I
can visit the arboretum to browsej
and ask questions. It will be open!
to the public starting in April and
running through the end of Octo
ber. Hours are scheduled for 10
a.m. to 2 p.m. on the first and third
Saturdays and second and fourth
Sundays of each month. If these
times are not convenient, an ap
pointment can be made by an
individual or a group to come and
take a tour. Contact Paul Xan
thull at 655-1939 for an appoint
ment.
Some of these trees will be
available for purchase on Satur
days March 10-31. These trees are
healthy specimens that have been
newly budded or grafted, and in
some cases both. This means the
trees could bear fruit in as few as
three years; whereas, a seedling
could take as many as nine years.
The sale of these trees help to
finance the maintenance of the
arboretum.
A future goal of the arbore
tum is “to be on sound financial
footing to support itself well into.
the 2000’s,” said Xanthull. The;
society is hoping to do this by
growing the fruit for the cafeteria
and the vending machines on
campus, in addition to selling trees

'Always* is brilliant in all ways
by Rosea n n Wentworth
Copy/Entertainment Editor
Always is movie-wizard Ste
ven Spielberg’s newest project to
be released on the silver screen
which is based on Victor Flem
ing’s 1943 fantasy A Guy Named
Joe which starred Spencer Tracy
and Irene Dunne.
The stoiy revolves around
pilots based at a Northwest fire
fighting camp..Richard Dreyfuss
plays “Pete,” a poised and well-
respected firefighting pilot who
consistently takes what other
people might call gut-wrenching
risks while Pete would just call his
“stunts” necessary to get the job
done. Holly Hunter (Broadcast
News) plays “Dorinda,” Pete’s true
love who intuitively knows “his
number is up” and tries unsuc
cessfully to keep him grounded.
The ever-popular John
Goodman (TV’s Roseanne) plays
Dreyfuss’ larger-than-life pilot
sidekick who agrees with Dorinda
about Pete’s fate, but ultimately
benefits from Pete’s final flight.
Goodman keeps Dreyfuss and
Hunter looking fresh and light.
Another key player in Always is
newcomer Brad Johnson, who
Dreyfuss, now in that big firecamp
base in the sky, believes is the
earthly being he must inspire. But
where there’s smoke, there’s fire,
and Johnson turns out to be the
silent antagonist of the film. The
great Audrey Hepburn cameos as
Dreyfuss’ divine connection and
looks angelic as ever.

As unlikely as it seems, the
Richard Dreyfuss in this film is
not the Dreyfuss most of movie
goers have grown to dislike in the
recent past Although playing a
cocky role, his cockiness as an
actor seems to have humbled
somehow and given him an edge.
Hunter has the metabolism of a
hummingbird and challenges her
audience to keep up with Dor-
inda’s emotions and intuitive ac
tions.
It is obvious that Spielberg
fell in love with Fleming’s version
as a young man. Although the film
is set in the present day, it is inten
tionally a very 1940’s movie with
the heroes and heroines, innocent
love and words like “Gosh!.”
Instead of hacking orstealing
plots as most remakes do, Always
respects A Guy Named Joe and
only adds to the original. Flem
ing, Tracy and Dunne would surely
be proud of what Spielberg has
accomplished with Always.
Spielberg, not surprisingly, has
made another beautiful and touch
ing film which makes your whole
body smile and, at times, a tear or
two may find itself crawling s lowly
down your cheek. Spielberg
punches all the right buttons,
whether it’s making his audience
stop breathing with anticipation
during flying sequences, or mak
ing one’s heart beat with laughter
along with Goodman’s great one-
liners. The fast paced editing and
thephotography of Mikael Solo
mon along with Spielberg’s “can’t
miss” story telling passion make
Always a movie everyone should
undoubtedly see.
