Men, women battle for 3rd, 4th in track championship CHRISTINA MUELLER Sports Editor The men placed third and the women fourth at the Northwest Athletic Association of Commu nity College's Championship track meet, held at Clackamas. “We were hoping to finish in the top three for both teams, but we knew we had a battle on our hands,” said Coach Mike Hodges. The men's team finished the meet with 104 points and took home a trophy. “The men scored in every event we entered except one,” Hodges said. “If you’re going to win or win a trophy in every event that comes up, you just have to keep earning points." The Community Colleges of Spokane took first place with a 143 points. Men's results for Thursday Thursday turned out to be a perfect day for the meet, with no rain and moderate temperatures. Shawn Davis placed first in the hammer throw with an NWAACC and school record of 187 feet and 6 inches. He was the lead ing competitor for the hammer before the meet. Aaron Stacey took fifth place with a distance of 123’02”. In the pole vault Bill Jones placed first with a height of 17’.25”. The height was an NWAACC record. The previous record, 16'5", was held by Curtus Haywood of Linn-Benton. Haywood competed in the Olympics last year. “We’ve had three Olympic pole vaulters come out of the NWAACCs and he [Jones] broke a record well above what any of them had cleared,” explained Hodges. Jones had several injuries during the season and had only started practicing again the day be fore. He was unable to compete in the Southern Region Championships and could not run for three weeks. Phil Elie and Vasili Tsirimiagos of Clackamas tied for third in the pole vault with a height of 14’. The three pole vaulters combined for 20 points.

HEEL performs waste audit BRAD ZIMMERMAN Managing Editor During a 22 hour-long "solid waste audit" the Helping Everyone's Environ ment Live club sorted though one full day of garbage. A recycling task force assigned the task of determining how much recy clable material was present in a day's worth of trash. HEEL and the college's plant ser vices department picked up 24 hours of garbage. To make sure that the study was as accurate as possible, HEEL had plant services empty all trash cans and bins the day prior to the audit, so only one day's worth of trash would be counted. In addition, the audit was preformed during the middle of the week and in the middle of the term so the amount of trash would not be ab normally high or low. "It [the audit] shows two things: the college really could save money by re cycling. ... And I think it does show there is a need to put some money up front into a recycling program," said HEEL Member and recycling task force member Cathy Andrew. Andrew said that a focus of the au dit was to see how much paper could have been recycled. Paper accounted for 28 percent of all interior trash and 11 percent of all exterior trash.

The production is a traditional Brit ish pantomime. Pantomimes, developed approximately 100 years ago were tra ditionally done at Christmas time, and still are in Britain. “This is something most people have never seen. The style is unique and it’s very funny,” said Director David Smith-English. To form a pantomime, the script is taken as a framework and then music, dance and jokes about the political and social system are inserted, making the play absolutely hilarious. “We’re going to have fun with the wa ter intrusion project ahd the political par ties,” said Smith-English. One humor technique used often in the play is the changing of the lyrics to fa miliar songs. “It’s a very appealing kind of form,” Smith-English shares. Not only is the play funny, but it is done tastefully for both kids and adults.
