Army recruiter to face music April 22, Earth Day, is a nationwide day of action to reclaim an environment ravaged by years of technological progress. The teach-in. on Western's campus has been expanded to a full week of speakers, clean-ups, trash-ins and rallies, in an effort to re-examine the ethic of the progress of man. representative Morris Udall at 8 p .m. in the VU lounge. Udall, a representative from Arizona whose name is synonymous with conservation, will speak on "Man as an Endangered Species." On Friday, April 24, teachers will be requested to give an ecological slant to their class discussions. S t u d e n t government leaders will attempt to expell U.S. Army recruiters from the campus placement center tomorrow afternoon. • The AS cabinet yesterday agreed to demonstrate after it was learned that the Army would not honor a request to subject the recruiters to a one-hour questioning period open to all students. The cabinet will sponsor a noon musical rally in the VU plaza to draw student support for the protest. See editorial on page 4. Whatcom may limit festivals Hearings on a county ordinance to regulate rock festivals will be held at 10 am., Monday, in the courthouse hearing room. The proposed ordinance, drawn up by James Thompson, Whatcom County prosecuting attorney, will limit festivals to one day and require the approval of facilities by the health department and the county sheriff. Applications will be required at least 40 days before the event and applicants must submit fingerprints to and be investigated by the sheriffs office. Furthermore, the applicants must submit a minimum cash bond of $5,000 and give proof of liability insurance of at least $100,000 per person. Dr. Robert Keller, professor at Fairhaven and a member of the state executive board of the American Civil Liberties Union, has asked the ACLU legal staff to prepare a formal analysis of the ordinance's constitutionÂality. "In my opinion the ordinance violates the 1st, 5th, and 14th Amendments of the U.S. Constitution in that it prevents freedom of assembly, violates due process of law, and denies equal protection under the law," Keller said. "This ordinance is utter hypocrisy and a corruption of the power of the government. It violates the idea that law should be fair, rational, and clear, not haphazard, discriminatory and vague." Keller plans to have an ACLU lawyer at the meeting. Phyliss Edwards of the Activities Commission said that she felt the county commissioner's action is and attempt to head off the Multi-Arts Festival and any other festivals Western may plan. Moratorium leaders plan rally Local Moratorium supporters are preparing for Income Tax Day on Wednesday April 15 to hold their first mass anti-war demonstration in Bellingham since last November. The main thrust of the Moratorium and New Mobe demonstrations across the liation on that date will be directed against the Internal Revenue Service, which collects taxes to financially support the Vietnam war effort. The day's activities locally will begin with a peace march from the campus to the Federal Building downtown, at 10:30 a.m. Carl Maxey, a Spokane attorney who is running against Henry Jackson for his Senate seat, will be the featured speaker at a noon rally at the Federal Building. Local Moratorium Committee spokesmen explained that a daytime march will give the demonstration additional exposure to downtown merchants and shoppers while enabling the marchers to confront the bureaucrats working in the Federal Building. Maxey, who is also president of the Washington Democratic Council, will be joined at the rally by speakers from the American Servicemen's Union Indian Servicemen's Union, and the Student Mobilization Committee. Musicians and poets will be on hand for the program also. The campus Moratorium Committee last month voted to encourage people not to pay at least $5 of their income tax in protest against the war. The committee requested persons not to pay their telephone excise tax as well, since that tax was re-imposed to help pay for the war. Goltz discusses further campus expansion plans By 1974 Western's campus will have a predicted population of over 13,000 students, Barney Goltz, campus planner, said discussing accelerated campus construction last week. Goltz sees Western with a population of 15,000 students by 1978 and sees today's construction as a road into the future to handle the number of students. Workmen are now working along High Street to replace old utility cables, the first necessary step before the library or auditorium additions, Goltz said. Also being developed is the High Street by-pass project which will cut down traffic congestion on the campus. The project will be open for bids April 17. The college and city are working together on the by-pass project. Once completed, High Street will be restricted for pedestrian use, except for an emergency vehicle lane, Goltz said. Along with street and academic improvements, Goltz looks ahead to college housing now being built and more in the planning stages. With these major changes in Western's campus comes an equal idea fostered by Goltz and his staff: the search for people who can create "inspired, man-made developments." Western Front photo
