SLACKS DON'T necessarily look grubby, as our pretty Collegian
Cover Girl, Janet Daves, illustrates. Slacks and such can look as
attractive as dresses, many students at Western feel. School rules
now prohibit this attire until after 4 p. m.

ns agree rules
on slacks are OK
Top-less dressed girls are a subject of interest
; today with some people for. and some against such
; modes of dress. Seattle city mayor and council are at-
, tempting to form laws banning the top-less dressed
girls.;
At Western the wearing of slacks by women! stuj-dents
is the problem.
The Dean of Men, Clyde W.
McDonald and the Dean of Wo­men,
Lorraine Powers, were ask­ed
why the women at. Western
can't wear slacks on campus..
Dean McDonald said, "It's,not
a question of whether the women
should or shouldn't wear slacks,
for there are enough opportuni­ties
at Western, in the course of
the day and in the school year.
They can wear them after 4 p. m.
every day, on weekends, during
final exams and in extreme cold
weather."
FEMININE WOMEN
' "I like women to be feminine
in their actions and in their
dress; the wearing of slacks
tends to detract from this," said
McDonald.
The Dean of Women, Lorraine
Powers, said, "Girls appear so
attractive in cute sweaters and
dresses I think it would be a
shame that they wouldn't • wear
them, especially when they have
the oppotUnity to wear casual
clothes after 4 p.m. on the camp­us."
Dean Powers also commented
that President Harvey C. Bunke
had told her he was pleased
with the dress of women on the
campus.
Standards governing dress were
formed about two years ago, ac­cording
to Dean Powers. Stu­dents
as well as faculty helped
in forming the rules. ;
The standards state that no one
is allowed in the dining facilities
wearing soiled or dishevled ap­parel,
shorts, gymnasium attire,
T-shirts, sweatshirts, cut-off jeans
or like garb.
Men may wear casual clothing
but they must wear shirts with

Western takes
positive action

Collegian Staff Reporter
In the midst of protests
over the war in Viet Nam,
Western is calmly and de­liberately
showing its ap­preciation
of the men who
are doing a dirty job for
the sake of their nation.
While the protestors in places
such as Berkeley demonstrate
against the Viet Nam war, and
the fringe elements support the
Viet Cong, Western's students
are conducting a blood drive to
aid' our soldiers in the Vietna­mese
war.
"They're giving their blood for
us, we should, give ours for
them," said Roger Sandberg, the
Westernite who is coordinating
the drive.
The Red Cross, after changing
its mind a number of times, has
decided that a blood drive can
be scheduled for Western's cam­pus.
The date has been set as
Nov. 29-30.
AGE LIMITS
Students under the age of 18
are not allowed to give blood.
Men .between the ages of 18 and
21 and unmarried girls of the
same age group must have per­mission
slips, signed toy a par­ent
or guardian, Sandburg ad­vised.
Permission slips will be avail­able
at the Viking; Union desk
and in the dorm boxes before
the Thanksgiving vacation, ac­cording
to Richard C. Reynolds,
Director of Student Activities.
Students may then take theijn
home to be signed dwring the
vacation. _.'..-.!
In a statement to the Colle­gian,
President Harvey C. Bunke
urged Westernites to join the
blood drive.
"The need for blood is a con­tinuing
one. Young, healthy col­lege
students would do well to
co-operate in supplying.blood for
not only the ordinary demands
in everyday life, but that brought
by the hostilities in Viet Nam."
TELEGRAM
In connection with the blood
drive the Young Republicans and
the Young Americans for Free­dom
are planning to telegraph
Christmas Greetings to U. S.
GI's in Viet Nam. AH Western
students are invited to have their
names included on the telegram.
The message would send sea­son's
greetings to the soldiers,
tell them of the blood drive at
Western and assure them of the
support they have among the
students on this campus.
The cost is expected to be 10
cents per name, according to
Sandberg.. . ' .._.,.. -;:. ...,.•
Says it was time v
he was relieved'
Dr. James Lounsberry, Western's head football
coach, has retired. . . . - . . . - • .•
Lounsberry handed his resignation statement to Dr.
William Tomaras, director of athletics, Wednesday and.
asked that he be given other tasks within the PE De­partment.
Tomaras read Lounsberry's statement to a group
of about 30 Viking football players and announced that
the department would seek a new coach from outside
the school staff.
Lounsberry, head coach since
1960, said in his statement that,
"After six years as head coach
at Western without any great
amount of success, I feel it is
time I be relieved of coaching
responsibilities in football." His
record for the six years is 25-
24-3.
"Right now I don't have the
slightest idea who is going to be
the new coach," Tomaras stated.
He added that several names
have been dropped in the hat and
he hopes to have a new coach
by the first of the year.
The replacement will be a
young man, according to To­maras,
and he will be someone
who "will instil respect in the
players.and will make, them go
out and whip wildcats."
Fred Emerson, head coach at
Kent Meridian High School and
Bruce Randall, head coach at
Ferndale High School are being
considered for the post.
CHANGES IN ASSIGNMENTS
Tomaras also informed the
team and newsmen that there
would be changes in the assistant
staff. There is speculation that
Stan Le Protti, head rugby coach,
will be re-appointed as an assis­tant.
LeProtti asked to be relieved
from the coaching staff this year
because of a personality conflict
with Lounsberry.
Head wrestling coach Jini
Smith will continue as one of the
(football staff.
The Athletic Director stated
that bringing in a new coach
and probably a new assistant
coach would mean some changes
in the PE department.
The fact that Tomaras can only
have a 'limited number of teach­ers
in the department means that
the new coach cannot be solely
a football expert. He will have
to assume some responsibilities
elsewhere.
WENT TO CENTRAL
Lounsberry went to college, at
Central Washington State College
where he was a hard-running full­back.
He reportedly ran the
hundred yard dash in ten seconds
fiat-
He began coaching at Foster
High School in 1948 and then went
to the University of Washington
as an assistant coach.
He took over head duties at
WMfiworth College in 1952 and
then went to Washington State
College as an assistant to Jim
Sutherland in 1957.
He was an assistant to head
coach John Kulbitski at Western
in 1959 and then took over as
head mentor in 1960.

. . . not satisfied.
COLLEGIAN IN ERROR:
COMMUNISM' INCORRECT
. Last week The Collegian printed a typographical error
to end all typographical errors. The goof was on the special
birth control feature page, under the story headed: "Men of
religion give their views."
The Collegian quoted Rev. Father J. F. Harriman of
the local Canterbury House (affiliated with the Episcopal
Church) as speaking of the "Anglican Communism."
He actually said "Anglican Communion." The Collegian
apologizes to him, Canterbury House, the Episcopal Church
and the Anglican Communion as a whole. ,..£
