By BRUCE DELBRIDGE
A one-ton Wee Winternational
racing car, careened out of control
during the soapbox derby
Saturday and smashed into a
Volkswagen injuring two students
and cancelling the rest of
the scheduled race.
Mike Gullickson, freshman, received
the full force of the errant
race car, as he was
thrown from the street back onto
the sidewalk.
POLICE RUSHED to the scene
of the mishap and summoned an
ambulance to transport Gullickson
to St. Luke's Hospital.
He received an X-ray and
first-aid treatment, but doctors
found no serious injuries.
Another student received- a
minor toe injury.
Don Sampson, sophomore prelaw
major, was driving the racer,
dubbed the "Tank," when it
crashed. Sampson applied his
brakes to avoid hitting a racer
driven by Robert Berger, senior
mathematics major.
Steve Baylor and Bruce Potter,
co-chairmen of the racing committee,
announced the cancellation
of the race after talking with
Dean of Men Clyde McDonald,
and Sergeant Robert Dunn of the
Bellingham Police Department.
EARLIER IN the week there
had been much controversy over
allowing the huge racer to compete
in the event. Sergeant Dunn
had informed the race committee
the previous Saturday, when
the race was originally postponed,
that he thought, the "Ta"hk" was
too large and could injure someone.
The cart moved a Volkswagen,
owned by David Wahl,
senior from Acme, one and one-half
feet sideways before hitting

"I believe in civil rights. The
depravation of an American's
rights is the depravation of all
Americans' rights," Dr. Laffer
said in reply to a question asking
why he was doing this.
He said that civil rights is
something that he took seriously
when he was young and he still
thinks the Constitution and the
Bill of Rights are more than just
a couple pieces of paper.
Dr. Laffer said that he plans
to get the money for the bond by
taking out a loan from his bank,
and that if the bond does not get
used, he will get the money back.
All he will have to pay is the
interest on the loan, which would
amount to $30 for a one-year
period.
"Organizations like SNCC,
CORE, and the NAACiP need
money very badly, contrary to
