Assembly OK’s funds for Gay Awareri Heated debate and tension laced the atmosphere of last night’s ASWSU Assem¬ bly meeting as a packed room gathered to watch the assembly approve funding for controversial groups such as Gay Aware¬ ness. About 50 persons crowded into the as¬ sembly chambers to voice support and Awareness president. “I live in fear to open my door that I may be shot. After assassination threats in letters to the Evergreen and after listening to some of the people here tonight, I wouldn ' t doubt it,” Moore said. Bill Davidson, from Stephenson South, mumbled after Moore’s comments. This attitude was echoed by many other assembly persons. Dianna Madson, as- semblyperson, Dist. 3, said the majority of the persons she polled did not want funds to be allocated to Gay Awareness. Mark Ufkes, off- ' ' us assembly per¬ son, said, “I’d ink I am repre- pAn inn fka r 1170 IT knn Among the o ing were envi $1,481 and Vol at $2,697.

Originally, the Dad ' s Weekend show was to include comedian Freddie Prinze. However, Prinze’s recent marriage caused cancellation of his engagements through December. Seraceno also says her committee and Crow “had a verbal agreement that he would de-emphasize Loggins and Messina advertising until well after the mass tick¬ et sale for Roberta Flack.” t s .

Numer- by Mark Skok snow. Ice froze onto windshields, anten¬ nas and mirrors. Ellensburg service stations and eating places operated at full throttle as students pulled in for gas or for dinners they had expected to eat in Pullman. Weather was about the only topic of discussion as peo¬ ple waited an hour for a hamburger. The freeway from Ellensburg to Van¬ tage was alternately icy and clear; cars without chains or studded tires risked sliding and those who left their chains on risked breaking them as the links scraped the hard pavement, throwing sparks at the cars who followed. Most drivers had removed their chains before reaching Vantage as Eastern Washington’s late-evening clear skies promised clear roads. Black ice was the rule from Washtucna to LaCrosse. The practical speed limit dropped from 45 m.p.h. to 25 m.p.h. here. Tired drivers combined with the near bumper-to-bumper traffic resulted in countless fender-bending accidents and cars sliding into ditches. Four university students were treated and released at Memorial Hospital for injuries as a result of automobile acci¬ dents. The Colfax office of the State Patrol said only five serious accidents occurred Kofwoon Unnnor O •» 00 g-sw 8- s S’S’ ■ ,00 h 3 CD e to 3 O 03 Q.
