13 mat teams in MSU Invitational With a large number of entries

set for this weekend 's fourth annual MSU Wrestling Invitational, wrestling coach Bill Emsick looks for " a tougher. much more interesting tourna­ment. "

Thirteen schools will compete , including North Idaho College of Coeur d'Alene. last season 's national junior college

champion. Also returning is Ricks College of Rexburg. Idaho, which tied with North Idaho for the MSU invitational champion ­ship last year. Ricks has four conference champions return­ing this season.

Other squads MSU will host are Eastern Montana; Northern Montana; Western Montana; Montana ; Rocky Mountain

Jeff built a fence around himself. With no gate.

College; Northwest Community College, Powell, Wyo.; Eastern Washington State College at Cheney ; Gonzaga and Whitworth. Spokane; and Big Bend Community College, Moses Lake, Wash.

The tournament begins Friday at 3 p.m. in the fieldhouse . The wrestler will take a break during the MSU-San Jose State basket­ball contest, then continue with semi -finals following the game.

Saturday's action opens at 10 a.m. Third and fourth-place finishers will meet at 6:30 p.m .. followed by the finals at about 7:30.

" North Idaho and Ricks have to be regarded as the teams to beat," says Emsick. " But they're going to have some stiff competition."

Eastern Montana, he points out, 1s looking for its best season in years 'They have an outstanding wrestler in senior Bob Uffelman," Emsick says. " He won the 15B-lb. class in the tournament last year. And a freshman from Bozeman, Tom Knox, should be tough at 167 "

MSU 's wrestlers w ill be making their first home 1nter­varsity appearance of the season. 'We're expecting a lot from our men," Emsick says.

The Bobcats will have two defending tournament champions returning , sophomore Bruce Anderson of Bozeman at 150 and sophomore Don Wilson at heavyweight Also returning is sophomore Dan Grant of Great Falls, tournament runner-up last year at 11B.

Bear Canyon lady publishes her first book of verse

Last summer. Bear Canyon resident Margaret Lovely came out with her first book of verse . "Streams of Liv ing Waters". Although new at the publishing game, Mrs. Lovely has written several feature articles for newspapers and magazines ranging from The Great Falls Tribune to The Nat ional Historical Magazine.

The poems are all about the out-of-doors. Ma Nature, old friends, old-times and all the things that make life worth while. She also did the photography, so the poems are illustrated with a personal touch.

Looking to the future, Mrs. Lovely hopes to see her book go from a black and white paper­back to hardback with color and be accepted by a major publisher. St reams of Living

Waters is now in several bookstores in Bozeman, includ­ing the M SU Bookstore.

The coyote's lecture Montana Power Co. president George O'Connor thinks the

recent bombing of a company office in Billings and the subsequent bomb threats on MPC properties are the machinations of some sick, isolated lunatic fringe.

Last night, O'Connor addressed a sparse crowd in the SUB Ballroom on the merits of constructing the controversial coal-fired generating plants, Colstrip J & 4 . He also brought an ally along.

The ally, this time, wasn 't another power company official. It was Peter Lombardozzi from the Billings local of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers. Labor and management sitting side by side, both dressed in suits. Both plugging for the same project. Shades of the old Montana Power brown -bagging game?

Lombardozzi, speaking for the IBEW, said, "We totally support expansive development of our coal resources," and, on Colstrip J & 4, " should proceed without unnecessary delay."

Lombardoui, in referring to those who oppose Colstrip 3 & 4 , said he was rem inded of his " high school world history," and drew a parallel between that Queen of France who uttered " Let 'em eat cake" and the environmentalists and other alarmists who would slow the wheels of progress.

O'Connor. naturally, was in fine form as he dodged pointed questions from the mostly-unsympathetic audience. Mr. O'Connor seems like a man who really believes in what he is doing. That's what he gets paid for.

No substantial. informative conclusions emerged from the power company's presentation. Just the same old stuff.

One area rancher told the crowd that listening to these two men who have such a vested interest in coal exploitation is like inviting a coyote to lecture on predator control.

The few company supporters in attendance made their presence known by applauding some of O 'Connors more fervent statements . One yuung man even rose to extol the virtues of the company's green -painted powerline which runs up Gallatin Canyon to Big Sky. He w as told by O 'Connor that there might be a place for him in the MPC engineering division.

After the program, one matronly citizen was seen pumping O'Connor's hand, repeating , "One hundred per centl One hundred per cent("

It looks like the best means, at this time, for stifling this corporate power-g rab, is to rally those citizens together who are concerned about the future of Montana 's social and ecological environment. The most immediate step, for Bozeman area residents, is to attend the hearing next Monday n ight sponsored by the Department of Natural Resources. These public meetings, which are being held around the state, are designed to determine the opinions of Montana People on Colstrip J & 4. It appears that, this time, people's opinions can have a strong bearing on the actions of the Department and the Board in deciding whether or not to allow MPC's plans to materialize.

It's all happening Monday, at B p.m . in the Emerson School auditorium, 111 South Grand. That's right near the liquor store. Check it out. Ask questions, tell 'em what you think. You might not get another chance .

Ill 1~ A Comment on Cowboys, continued

By Gordon Scoville As far as my recent article. "'A

Comment on Cowboys .. is concerned, I regret that I made one mistake: I chose only to cite the "cowboy" as the one who is guilty of hiding behind a fake, phony role. For it simply is not true that the " cowboy" is the only pretense walking around. For example, there is your " christian with the halo above his head"; your physics major who constantly has his nose in a book (or any other major if you will); your " star athlete" who flaunts his physical prowess at the expense of human compassion; the engineer who not only studies machines, but behaves like one as well.

These are all roles. At times we all play them. But there is a great deal of difference between assuming a role because, perhaps, society defines them for us; and using the role as a cover, a phony identity; which, I regret to say, is what most of you are doing.

Now as to the matter of response to my article. It was blind, pompous. narrow, and altogether a sign of

genuine misunderstanding (of my anicle). I detected the following types of response: It) Defensive­ness on the part of many people who attacked me personally, not my article. (2) Indifference such as the "Who Cares?" letter. What's tragic about this is that indifference is the clearest sign of death within the individual. (3) Cheap humor on the part of people who assumed I was joking. I seldom joke about issues as serious as, 'Why do people hide behind roles?" (4) Depravity on the part of fools who called me personally such things as . ··Asshole '', ''fucker", " prick", " shithead", etc. Such words are deserving not of the person who is being called them, but rather of the person who uses them to degrade another human being. Only a " fucker" calls another person a " fucker".

Fina lly, whether you can under­stand it or not, I care about you: at least enough to write these articles And I don 't like the behavior I see in you; perhaps because ohen I see the same behavior in me. I have been an animal. thus I can see that you too ohen behave as an animal (your role playing, disgusting drinking parties, etc.). But alas. your response to my articles has been so discouraging that I can see nothing short of World War Ill (or a similar crisis) shaking you out of your god damn, pompous, sick lethergy. 'Wake up and die right I"

K-Mart unfair in their personnel practices

To the Editor: Just thought your readers would

be interested to hear a little news about the new and upcoming (1) K­Mart store in Bozeman.

It seems this store hired over 100 people with the idea they would be regular employees. But, after only three weeks of cperation. several employees are laid off.

The way these employees were laid off is simply outrageous. With no warning whatsoever, these people were called to personnel, told they were no longer needed and paid.

Unfortunately, we were not even allowed to finish our shift .

These people were hired on a full -

time basis. many giving up other employment. We were not even granted the consideration of five minutes notice.

How these people were laid off is a mystery in itself. Possibly only the manager knows.

I strongly suggest shopping else­where if pcssible. Any place that unfair to empJoyees is certainty unfair to customers.

On behalf of those supponing or who helped ~uppon a family and are now out of Jmployment. we ask you to please shop elsewhere.

Thank you, A former employee supporting a family .

Kenneth Anger, f ilmmaker (Scorpio Rising) and author (Hollywood Babylon). is working

Stealing children: What next?

In the state of Minnesota du ri ng the year 1970 alone, one of every four American Indian chi ldren born was take n from the parents and placed for adoption in a non·lndian home_ In hearings held recently, it was charged that .. officials take advantage of the parents lack of legal knowledge, convincing the mothers and fathers they have no choice but to give up their children despite a lack of evidence of neglect.

Why has it taken the Indian so long to rouse himself to turn his anger toward action? Many a white bureaucrat, ruling a reservation like a colonial army officer, has assumed that Indian acceptance stemmed from either respect or servility. R;rely has it been either. The Indian nation was physically shattered and spiritually demoralized by the U.S . Cavalry, wh ich systematically destroyed its leaders and the best of its manhood in the late 19th century campaigns that whites call the "taming of the wild west ." Chief Luther Standing Bear of the Oglala Band of Sioux has this to say. "We did not think of the great open plains, the beautiful rolling hills and winding streams with tangled growth as 'wild.' Only to the white man was nature 'wilderness' and only to him was the land infested with 'wild ' animals and 'savage' people. To us it was tame. Earth was bountiful and we were surrounded with the blessings of the great mystery. Not until the hairy many from the east came, and with brutal frenzy heaped injustices upon us and the families w e loved was it 'wild ' for us. When the very animals of the forest began fleeing from approach then it was 'wild west ' began .

For too long, India n dissent also has been stifled by their forced dependency upon whites for land

and livelitnod. Th is has :nade many of them reg&rd white authority as an almost magical thing .

Handicapped by their special de fi n i t io n of d i gn i ty and fractional ized by their allegiances to about 300 tribes, the 652,000 Indians in the U.S. have never developed a unity that would sustain massive protest.

Indians have also watched the marches, siHns and street tactics of restive blacks. Indians feel little affinity w ith blacks and there is friction between the races in some federal antipoverty programs; still, the Indians are beginning to demand their share of the action. That demand is not only just, but is long overdue.

It seems as if land was the means of recognizing the Indian as a human being. It was the method whereby land could be stolen legally and not blatantly.

To hear some people talk, Indians are simultaneously rich from oil royalties and poor as church mice. To hear others, Indians have none of the pleasures of the mainstream. like riots, air pollution, snipers. ulcers, and traffic . Consequently, they class Indians among the ··underprivileged" in our society.

Primitive purity is sometimes attributed to tribes. Some tribes keep their rituals and others don't . The best cha racteriza tion of tribes is that they stubbornly hold on to w hat they fee l is important to the m and disca rd w hat they feel is irrelevant to their cu rrent needs .

Traditions die hard and innovation comes ha rd. Indians have survived for thousands of years in all kinds of conditions. They do not fly from fad to fad seeking nove lty. That is what makes them India n.

CBS News reporter Dan Rather watched with his very own eyes as Richard Nixon pushed Ron Ziegler once. A White House press repre­sentative den ied ttiat it happened. Rather looked at the film later and saw the great shove again . The Washington flack denied it again. The incident was shown on the evening news. It was still denied.

However, Rather refuses to name the official who indulged in such a blatant l ie because he doesn 't want to get him in trouble. But this isn 't akin to revealing a source. George Orwell intended 1984 to be a warning; Dan Rather, by his silence. is helping to make it a blueprint.

There is a growing body of evidence concerning the CIA -government manipulation of weather. from the seeding of clouds in Southeast Asia while the dikes were being bombed, to

the causing of tl'lat solid month of rain over Resurrection City in the United States.

The Morning of the Magicians. which I have read, describes civilization itself as a conspiracy. The Holy Bible may be the ultimate hoax, then, by which empire after empire perpetuates the myth of apocalypse in order to justify war. famine , pestilence, disease.

A Canadian citizen was the victim of a pickpocket. Not only did he lose his social insurance card, birth certificate and drivers license, but he also acquired a criminal record for crimes committed by the pickpocket. In addition, he received tax bills for jobs he never held.

So he asked for a new insurance number, but it was explained that the computers weren't programmed for this. He was told that his only alternative was to change his name.

Maybe he could call himself Cassius Clay. That 's available.

Beware of the icy campus sidewalks Every winter of the MSU

campus the severe problem of icy streets arises. Students who have experienced this problem know what this letter is concerned about.

There are several causes to this problem, the root cause. ahd the most obvious, being that it snows a lot here in our fair city.

Subsequent to the snow problem is that after it snows. people walk on the snow and ice forms. Therefore. snow is not the problem, the ice that is formed, is .

The maintenance department tries. and has tried, with brushes, snow plows. salt chemicals, heated sidewalks. labor, and even noth ing at al l. Some succeed, some don 't . At present, they are using the snow brushes, which brush away the snow and allow the ice to melt and prevent m ore ice from forming. But it doesn 't work like that to any great degree; it poli shes the existing ice. making things. like walking even more difficult .

The purpose of this letter is to offer some alternatives. Fi rst of all , walk slowly and carefully.

Brought To You By

Buy proper boots to obtain the necessary traction . Also, the new crepe-soled shoes are excellent for traction.

Avoid the steeper slopes if at all possible: between Linfield and Johnson Halls. Pryor and Montana Halls. Hedges South and Gaines Hall. Also avoid steps, which are extremely dangerous: i.e.. the steps coming out of Montana Hall

facing west. Use handrails wherever available, or fences, or walls. or bushes, or trees. or even other people.

Try to follow these suggestions and try to make this a safer winter for everybody, and give the Student Health Service a break.

Bobcat basketball comes to Bozeman this weekend. The Cats have their first home game tonight with San Jose State.

Bike registration Saturday On Saturday, December 7,

there will be bike registration on campus. It w ill be at the S.O.B. Barn. Reg istration is free in Bozeman so just bring your bikes. Registration provides a positive identification in case of theft. Each year in Bozeman 30 to 60 stolen bikes are auctioned off beca use there is no way to identify them. Besides being practical , registration is a law.

Since registering your bike does not help in the prevention of theft here are a few guide­lines in keeping your bike safer:

1 . Use a hardened steel Jock and chain , they are harder to cut.

=,--~- A 'f1.' 2lCXSHCP

OD g TI

2. Park your bike in a place that is well lighted at night.

3 . Buy a Jong chain so that you can lock both your frame and the front tire to something solid .

4 . Don't use a cylinder type combination lock, they are easily picked .

5 . Park in bike racks or where there are other bikes because there are more people around.

6 . Use common sense and don ' t give the potential thiefan opportunity to steal your beautiful $ 1 00.00+ piece of machinery.
