' Dima wetwj detwe 4 by Jocelyn Gauthier Feature Editor Clackamas drama students returned from the 27th Kennedy Center American College Theater Festival with a “renewed sense of vigor for theater,” according to Barbara Bragg, theater instructor. The festival, held in Eugene at the University of Oregon and Lane‘Community College, took place Feb. 8 to Feb. 11. “We’ve got this production (“Talking Pictures”) going, so we couldn’t go (for the full four days),” Bragg said. Thus, they only went for the workshops on Saturday. Included in the workshops was one on play writing. “Michael Weller (playwright) was there helping students,” Bragg said. “I went to a presentation on multiculturalism (which taught) how to acquaint students with, playwrights from various cul tures,” Bragg said. She also attended a Reader’s Theater, “where everyone gets to perform and find out some of the unusual skills for Reader’s The ater presentation. “It’s (Reader’s Theater) re ally different because people aren’t costumed and make-up is regular,” she said. “They don’t interact with the other people on stage...and yet it was fascinating to find that you got emotionally drawn in. It seems quite sterile, but with a well-trained voice and truth, these characters...come to life,” she said. “Theater has nothing to do with competition, and everything to do with cooperation,” Bragg said, as there were several com petitions at the festival. “This is one of those rare times when you have to pick a winner, and I’m glad it doesn’i happen very often,” she said.

All I needed was one more to really screw me up! Now a cop approached my window, his little penlight blind ing me instantly. “May I see your driver’s li cense?” he asked in a command ing voice. Nervously, I whipped out my license and proof of insurance. When he asked me for my regis tration, it took Wilson and me 10 minutes of nervous searching through piles of junk to find a crumpled up yellow copy of my temporary registration. I had re cently purchased my Isuzu, and had not yet received my perma nent registration. I was shocked to hear the cop tell me to get out of the car. I had never been asked that in all my life. He proceeded to search me and my friends for possible weap ons or drugs. Then he hauled us all into the back of some police cars. I was bewildered beyond comprehension. I was in the back of a police car all by myself. I bowed my head in respect and humility. I felt like such a fool to be so fully responsible for such a misdemeanor. I wondered if tfiey had seat belts back there. I was going to by Delores Ward Staff Writer Student-directed one-act plays, “Jumping,” “Comedy” and improvisations for Winter Term are about to begin, starting at 12:30 p.m., March 7 in the McLoughlin Theater.

The police officer read me my rights and asked me if I was will ing to tell him the whole truth, with the knowledge that five neighbors had witnessed my jump. I replied simply, “Yes, sir! All I wanted to do was to go over the bump! Sir!” I answered his questions carefully and explained the situ ation. He had assumed we were going 80, but I assured him that 55 was more like it. Finally, just when I was about to think we were all destined for jail, he let us all go, and handed me a $1,113 fine for reckless driv ing! He said he appreciated our cooperation and advised me of the upcoming court date. As we all rejoined in my Im pulse, the first thing I said was, “I really feel like I need a clove cigarette!” Slowly we slid from our ner vous attitudes into a more mellow atmosphere of excited talking about the recent adventure we’d been granted. There was a lot of humor, laughter and keeping the speed limit. We rambled my now noisy car down to Carrows Restaurant on 162nd to discuss the night’s events over an extremely long cup of decaffeinated peppermint tea.

A group of officers brought a dog to search my car for drugs. I saw them pull out my purple beanbag and place it on the roof. The beanbag acts as a unique tem porary passenger seat. I was sur prised they didn’t fine me for that. I saw the dog wagging his tail and jumping around in my vehicle like a little high-strung kid. Soon enough, he was released without any kind of discoveries. “Do you have any tatoos?” I heard the cop in front say to me, interrupting my thoughts. “Yes, sir!” I replied. I tried to think how respectfully I could address him. I thought of saying, “yes, your honor,” but that would have been a mistake, I’m sure. “What kind of tattoo, and where do you have it?” I heard him saying. “An African Peace-shield on my stomach. I was born and raised in Zaire, Africa.” He seemed to ignore this last comment as he asked,"What state were you bom in?” “Zaire, Africa, sir!” I re sponded. I distinctly heard some police officers in the background remarking that if my car had been American-made, it wouldn’t have survived the “bump.” Increase job options Enhance your earning power Bring personal satisfaction Prepare you for Graduate School Phone 280-8585 for a free information packet You can earn your 4 year degree in as little as 13 mos. if you meet the following require ments: *An Assoc, or Oregon Transfer Degree *2 years of transfer able college credit *5 years of significant work experience *2.0 GPA CONCORDIA COLLEGE Please send me free information Namft Aririrasg City/State/Zip__________________________ (Home Phone) (Work Phone) Return to: Accelerated Degree Program 2811 NE Holman St. Portland, OR 97211 Phone (503) 280-8585 Fax (503) 280-8555 . w
