I llustration b y J O N A T H A N Y OUNG /PIONEER T own C enter c ompliments u niversity J ONATHAN YOUNG/PIONEER The concept ofa new Town Center mirroring Cal State San Marcos may become a reality soon with the expected appointment of an architect by the end of November. "We hope to sign an architect within the month," San Marcos' Assistant City Manager Paul Malone said. Malone said the Town Center will be located on Twin Oaks Valley Road on the north side of Highway 78, opposite the permanent university site. "The Civic Center will have a vertical compliment to the university," Malone said in reference to CSUSM's clock tower. He said since San Marcos doesn't really have a downtown, the university and Town Center's construction, both visible from the freeway, would give an educational and civic presence. The center will include a library, city hall, community center, a theater, possibly retail offices, a hotel and houses. "If we lease some of this area to business," Malone said, "then it will pay for itself in the long ran." The city is working with the Koll Company SEE C I VIC/PAGE A8 NCTD switches to monorail track J ONATHAN YOUNG/PIONEER Officials with the North County Transportation District agreed Thursday to match San Marcos' commitment to study a monorail system that will serve the permanent campus of California State University, San Marcos. NCTD board members agreed to spend $5,000 to study alternatives for a light-rail commuter train travelingfromOceanside to Escondido. The dollar figure matches the donation from the city of San Marcos which is pushing for a monorail system. The transit district's current plans include a trolley system similar to the San Diego trolley. This commuter line would use already in place train tracks crossing the North County area. Paul Malone, Assistant City Manager for San Marcos, said the current proposal only needs some additions to the rails to make the commuter line operational - such as more crossing signals and electric wires to power the trolley. The monorail system would require a whole new set of elevated tracks. The transit district has shied awayfromthe additional costs of elevating a new track line because of the costs involved. Malone, however, said NCTD will recover its investment Malone said the university has played a major role in getting the idea of a mass transit rail system in North County rolling. "The university is what makes it feasible this early in time," he said.

Threats of rain and increment weather loomed over Sunday's First International Festival, but worries abated when the weekend's storm front lifted, yielding to clear skies. Cal State San Marcos officials estimated that the event brought about 3,500 people eager to experience the atmosphere of a "Global Village." The festival began on schedule at 11 a.m., showcasing such performers as Papa John Creech, Chinese Lion Dancers and Mariachis. Local restaurants specializing in international cuisine and arts and crafts vendors were also on hand for the event. Sunday's festival brought to closure nearly a year of planning by the university. Funding for theevent came from the Itoman International Company last year, when a $500,000 endowment was awarded to the college. Itomanapportioned$50,000of the gift for the first festival and will put forth similar amounts over the next nine years to fund upcoming festivals. Carol Bonomo, co-chair of the Festival Committee, said the event met the college's expectations for the community population has shown enthusiasm for the university's arrival, principally because of such events as Sunday's festival. "This was a good gauge of the effectiveness of the university's mission," he said. "We have an opportunity to seejust how anxious the people in the region are over their college." The weekend's events, however, were threatened by rains on Friday and Saturday. Due to the high cost of rain insurance, the college made a last-minute decision to erect canopies over craft community participation. booths, food vendors and performance "We had primarily community stages.

University officials not certain when language requirement will commence RICHARD BEETH/PIONEER In attempting to fulfill its Mission Statement, Cal State San Marcos will be requiring competency in some foreign language. Officials, however, remain uncertain as to when the requirement will be implemented. Dr. Isabel Schon, director of the Center for Study of Books in Spanish and one of the founding faculty, says the importance of a language requirement cannot be understated. "B eing in Southern California with its large Spanish and Asian population,'' with Tijuana only 35 miles away,'and with the advent of the North American firee'trade agreement, it's more impbr&nt than ever to have' some Schorl says.

WEEN L ARRY BOISJOUE/PIONEER Barbara Pender and Pat Ward display the cover of Cal State San Marcos'firstyearbook, Tukut Yearbook due out Nov. 13 L ARRY BOISJOLIE/PIONEER Even though Cal State San Marcos' first academic year has come and gone, students, staff and faculty will have the opportunity to relive last year's experiences when Tukut, CSUSM's official yearbook, becomes available next month. Yearbook Editor Barbara Pender said t hat, according to contract stipulations with Taylor Publishing, the book will be completed and delivered by Nov. 13. Pender also said that Taylor, who is currently ¡Minting and binding the yearbook, could possibly finish its work on the book earlier than the November deadline. Last week, Pender and yearbook partnerPat Ward received a completed yearbook cover. Pender said she wanted the cover to represent the traditional values and new idealisms by which the university' sfirststudents were guided. To achieve this effect, Pender and Ward went to Orange County in May to meet with Taylor's design staff. Together they came up with a cover that has a marble-like texture laid adjacent to blue leather. The current emblem of the university, a drawing of a mountain lion, is embossed on the cover. "The cover represents the culmination of reality," Pender said. "We now have something tangible to represent our efforts. It looks damned good." Pender said the guts of the yearbook will consist of 72 pages ai?d an eight-page fold-outcenter spread. She said the first sixteen pages will be printed in full color with blue spot color printed throughout the book. Photographs for the yearbook were taken by Pender and Ward. Other pictures were garnered from the college's archives and files ofPioneer. According to Pender, 400 copies of the yearbook are being printed, even though only 239 were sold last semester. Of those sold, Pender said only 130 were bought by students. The others were purchased by CSUSM faculty and administration. "Once people see how beautiful this looks, i t's going to move fast," Pender said. Last semester, reservations for the yearbook were sold for $25. Because the participation was low, printing the book has a higher per-volume cost than it would have been with a higher printing run. As a result, those who want one of the 161 remaining copies will have to fork out $35. Pender said this price is still $8 below the cost of printing. Funding for the book was found through fund-raising, paid subscriptions and a $10,000donation from the University Foundation. Pender said that once those who pre-paid for the annual get their copies, the remainder of the yearbooks will be placed on sale through the Cashier's Office. Even though a date and location has not been formally set, Pender said she hopes to have a signing party after distribution. She said that because of uncertainties about when the yearbook will arrive, a party has not yet been planned. Pender said she is looking forward to next year's yearbook, but added that its look ajid content will be determined after reaction to the first -edition is gauged. " We've gone through so much trouble to makesure that everyone on the campus was covered," she said.

"We've always thought ahead of how to control traffic congestion," Malone said. Mass transit is the way the city decided to handle the traffic generated by the university'spresence. "Our compliments to the university administration for accepting this idea," Malone said. CSUSM is the only university in California to accept the concept of a trolley serving the campus. Malone said UCSD has refused the service for years. CSUSM, however, included it in the master plan of the university campus. "This is a real good example of the university and city relationship working together," Malone said. The commuter line's San Marcos stops include a station in front of Palomar College. A new track will be constructed between San Marcos Blvd. and Woodland Pkwy.; stops on this track will include the new site of San Marcos' City Hall complex and the university. The last stop within the city will be on Nordahl Road. San Marcos Mayor Lee Thibadeau offered the initial alternative study idea to the City Council. The transit district approved the commuter line Sept. 12 despite Thibadeau's objection to the trolley idea. The commuter line is scheduled to open in 1995, but may be delayed a few years according to Malone. CONTINUED FROM PAGE A2 the develop the center. "We've hired their expertise in management and development," Malone said. "We acknowledged early on that we need assistance with management." Malone said the city staff is not trained in building a large development such as the 60-acre civic center. Koll was chosen through a developers' competition. Twelve companies responded to the competition and after interviews and company reviews, four were selected to construct a conceptual drawing of the center. "Koll brings extensive, national experience in mixed use development to this project and is well respected in e industry for its ability to deliver both on time and within budget," Rick Gittings, City Manager of San Marcos, wrote in a newspaper column recendy. "It is exactly this kind of 4 performance' mentality that the city hopes to bring to development of the Town Center project" Currently, the site is being filled with dirt The entire 60 acres must be raised before construction can begin. Malone said the filling came earlier then planned, but the city was offered fill dirt at no cost. Another company needed to get rid of excess dirt and would only charge for hauling and compacting the dirt "It ended up being less then half of what we budgeted," Malone said. "We'rejust trying to spend the public's money wisely." IMMUNIZATIONS N EEDED... Adults forget disease dangers O ct 27 through Nov. 2 is National Adult Immunization Awareness Week. The American College Health Association and 53 other health care and consumer organizations as well as government health agencies are sponsoring this program to urge all adults to obtain the appropriate immunizations in order to prevent needless illness and even fatalities. Recently, college students have become aware of the need for measles vaccinations because of the mandatory requirements by institutions such as CSU San Marcos. On the other hand, many students still believe that the immunizations they received as a child will protect them for life. Others aren't certain of what vaccinations they generally need or which ones they have received or new vaccines that have become available recently. Here are some facts quoted from the American College Health Association's newsletter • Of the 27,672 measles cases reported in the U.S. in 1990,62,207 (22.5 percent) occurred in persons 20 years of age and older; 27 or 89 (30.3 percent) measles deaths provisionally reported in 1990 were HEALTHNOTES BY DR. JOEL GRINOLDS among 20 years of age and older. • In 1990 more than 1,000 rubella cases were reported in the U.S.; a provisional total of 23 children were born with congenital rubella-related birth defects. • American's lose more than 15 million work days annually as a result of illness from influenza although each year an effective influenza vaccine is available. • 200,000-300,000 new cases of hepatitis B infection occur in the U.S. each year, with 6-10 percent becoming chronic hepatitis B carriers although a safe, effective vaccine is available. • Up to one half of Americans over 30 years of age are inadequately immunized against tetanus and diphtheria. Despite the availability of safe and effective vaccines, there are still on average 50 cases of tetanus resulting in at least 10 deaths annually in the U.S. Students frequently don't realize that they are vulnerable and even at higherriskthan the general public for contracting certain vaccine-preventable diseases. The best example of this is the measles: however, influenza also can be rapidly spread throughout a college campus. Students who have chronic medical problems such as asthma, cardiac disease, diabetes, kidney disease are at highestriskfor influenza. Others who care for high-risk persons and health care workers should also be vaccinated. Although not considered high risk, any student who works with the public and especially with children should consider getting vaccinated in order to minimize the disruption of routine activities during an influenza outbreak. Immunizations work. The eradication of smallpox from the face of the Earth is a shining example. Consult your health care provider or S tudent Health Services for information regarding your need to be fully protected through available vaccines.

But for the employees at the Fallbrook Enterprise these stories aren't told around a campfire; they are told in the office. The place isn't mythical; it's in the office itself. And the stories aren't imagined. The Enterprise is haunted. Among the staff members of the weekly newspaper, a man, a woman and a girl roam the halls and rooms of the 50-year-old building. This is one of thefindingsof Alexandra Andrews, a psychic who visited the newspaper in 1989. "It's strange," said Donna Spicer, office manager for the Classified Advertising Department. She said some of the occurrences with ghosts are more weird than frightening. Spicer is quick to point out things that aren't usual mishaps. For instance, her typewriter - an old manual would be switched to triple space every night. Spicer always types in single space. "There are things that can't be attributed to anyone in the building," s picer S icer s aid,"... except tthe g host" " •• except he ghost Her coffee cup would be missing, would be missing, It u/nn1H tv* m m H ™ It would be ffound on the top shelf of a cabinet - in another room. A file would be gone. Spicer and her entire staff would look for it to no avail. This is not an instance of overlooking something, since it would be back where it was supposed to be at a later time. Computers would be turned on. Things would be missing. Items would be moved. "It's kind of an accepted fact that when something is missing, it was just the ghost," Spicer said. But that isn't the only proof of spiritual beings in the building. And it didn't take Andrew's readings to let them know either. "I did see the child," Texanna Schaden recalls. In 1987, before the building was remodeled and Schaden worked in a different department, she would come i na Sunday's to do work by herself. On her way in one day, she saw a girl with a long dress and long hair using a computer in one of the offices. After Schaden put her stuff down at her desk - a brief moment - she returned to P a tell the girl to not play with the macchine. hine, TU* The girl was gone. The computer was cold, as if no one had been there. "I didn't stay around too long after that," Schaden said. Schaden saw the girl the next weekend and again a few years later. Andrews does not sense any harm from the people. The ghosts just have fun. " It's s ort of m ischievous," Spicer said, "like a poltergeist." Sally Larsen, a former camera technician, stars in a lot of the stories told. She worked in the small, old camera room. Before the remodel, employees would have to walk a narrow, dark hallway, enter the dark room and fumble around tofindthe light switch. Without ghosts, the journey is frightening enough; but with the legends of spirits, the hallway becomes terrifying. In the small room, only big enough for maybe two people, Larsen has had hherrun-ins with two oofthe gghosts, er run-ins with two f the hosts. tu« i.. . ..i The only "menacing"» story is when the man appeared with Larsen and started throwing things down and unscrewing lights. The girl has pulled on Larsen's clothes and hair. Some stories interpret this as mischief. Others tells a tale of t rying to communicate with the living. Andrews says t hat one theory of ghosts includes ai* tempts by the dead to communicate with the living. Another theory, Andrews says, is the spirit stays when a person dies unexpectedly; the soul doesn't know it's supposed to leave. This second theory is used frequently when explaining how the three spirits reside at the newspaper facility. Before the newspaper offices were constructed, the site was home to a gas station. Spicer recalls a story of an W EEN explosion, but iis unclear why and explosion, but s unclear which f the three died. which oofthe three died. r i ^ Photographer Dick O'Brien tells a story of a flu epidemic taking the lives of the man and girl and the woman dying later. But through all the stories, one constant remains. The man and the girl died together; the woman years later. O'Brien is an old colleague of Andrews and arranged the first psychic reading of the Enterprise office. This first visit serves as the base to most ghost stories at the Enterprise. But the second visit by Andrews is not known by as many people and is not included in all the tales. About six months after the initial visit, Andrews returned with O'Brien and a friend one night Andrews went in alone. After a cup of coffee and 20 minutes of conversation, Andrews returned to O'Brien and hisfriend."Are they gone? What did you do?" they asked. "They will bother you no more," she replied. Spicer and Schaden said they have had nothing missing, moved or tampered with for over a year. Financing Your Education Can Be A Balancing Act.. Talk To Us About A Student Loan!

We have developed a reputation for not tipping well in restaurants. There are many reasons why women may not tip well. We may not be able to tip as well as men because we don't earn as much. That would be the kindest reason. But it's not a good one. If we can't afford to tip in the correct percentage to what we spend on our meal, we ought to go to a less expensive place. Another reason given is that many feel we have not been served as well as we should have been, so we pinch back on the tip. So why aren't we being served well? Many waitresses will freely admit they pay more attention to a table full of men than one peopled by women; because women don't tip well. Let's consider the domino effect this has on our reputations and on the service we receive as well. Waitresses don't serve womepweUbecaus^they don't expect much of a tip.

Ixfe's d oit ' ^,, ?; O UR VIEWS Marcos Mayor Lee Thibadeau STAFF EDITORIAL p robably remembers the ride well. His vision of San Marcos seems to comerightout of Disneyland. Yet, Thibadeau's wishing upon a star might not appease the County' s conservative critics who think the mayor is lost in dreamland. With his controversial conception of a trash-burning plant came the progressive idea of a trash-recycling center. Such a center would separate trash into recyclables and nomecyclables, thereby alleviating congestion in San Marcos' landfill. But the County's Board of Supervisors didn't buy the idea. It was just too controversial to deal with. Thibadeau's latest idea is to put a monorail system in San Marcos to serve a growing commuter population. If you've ever been to Disneyland, you know that monorails are, clean, quick and efficient But monorails are also expensive. Putting such a system in would require construction of an elevated track system and almost double the cost of the nearest commuter competitor, a tram. Finding the space for a monorail is another problem. A tram, similar to the system in San Diego, would run on tracks which already exist Putting in a system here would place minimal cost on the city. One reason for the mayor's zeal to add a progressive flair to San Marcos is the growing college community. As Cal State San Marcos grows, new businesses will arrive along with a largo- population. Thibadeau believes that by making a state-of-the art community, more and more of those businesses will be inspired to build here. In fact, the CSU system chose San M a^os because of that very poifentM. * B ui Thibadeau's enthusiasm is all too often criticized because ii conflicts with conventionality.

A person must be willing to share his/ her energies if an accurate reading is to be given. Mrs. Jenny likens psychic readings to hypnotism, in that a person can only be read if he/she wants to be read. "You have to have an open mind when you come in here," she says. Mrs. Jenny first recognized her extra-sensory talents when she was a child. She sees the ability as a natural God-given talent that has been passed down from generation to generation. She says her mother, grandmother and great grandmother held the talent in their lifetimes. "To us (ESP) is not so unusual. Other children would find the talent a little scary," she says. "But when you are born with it, it is very natural. It isn't something I developed or studied, rather it was passed down from generation to generation." Mrs. Jenny says that every person is born with some degree of extra-sensory perception, but many MRS. JENNY suppress the urge to use it. "Every human being on this Earth has ESP. A lot of people know they have it but are scared to talk about it," Mrs. Jenny says. "Now police and people in many directions turn to psychics." The office where Mrs. Jenny performs her readings is small and filled with a variety of different religious statues, paintings and symbols. She says that all of the religious icons in her office were given to her by people who have received readings from her. Mrs. Jenny says that psychic reading is not an expression of evil, UNIVERSITY STORE Serving S.D.S.U. North County & C.S.U. San Marcos 594-7793 N OT V ALID W ITH A N Y O THER C OUPON O R D ISCOUNT. as many people believe, but a manifestation of God-given talents. 'There is a God and there is an evil. How can there not be a God when we have green leaves and beautiful things? It is God who gives us the miracles of the Earth," she says. She sees all religions as paying homage and worship to the same god. Buddhism, Christianity and other religions all might have different names for the divine entity, but in the end all worship the same God. Ultimately, Mrs. Jenny says that the powers of God will overcome the forces of evil in the world. But she also says that there are hard times ahead for the future of humankind. She says the events in the Eastern Block countries are just a precursor of hard times to come. "There will be much more difficulty before it turns to getting better," she says. "It's going to get a lot worse before it gets better. But when it does get better, there's going to be more love and harmony in communication with the whole world." She indicates that these worldwide changes will take place in the next four or five years. Mrs. Jenny says that most people in the world are sceptical about psychic powers. The majority Of the people she sees are nonbelievers who come in with a doubting frame of mind. She says that some of those people have to discover answers for themselves and find their own futures. In her office Mrs. Jenny has a picture of one person who experienced his future in a big way. The photograph depicts her meeting with former President Ronald Reagan. Mrs. Jenny said she met with Reagan during a psychic convention while he was still Governor of California.

At first cards consisted of a simple deck of playing cards. In the centuries since, tarot decks have become colorful and utilize highly artistic drawings to convey the feelings and predictions associated with each card. In the twentieth century, hundreds of different tarot decks are available. The cards are meant to pick up psychic energies from the questioner or querant The reader, or diviner, then lays the cards out and interprets the readers psychic energies through the cards. A 72-card deck of tarots has two different sections. The Major Arcana are 22 trump cards, usually numbered from 0 to 21 and displaying names such as "Death" or "The Fool." The Minor Arcana contain four suits of fourteen cards each, ace through 10 and four court cards: king, queen, knight and page. Usually, the suits are swords, wands, cups and pentacles. Each card in the deck has two meanings, decided by the position of the card to the diviner. When the card isright-sideup to the diviner, the soothsayer reads a "divinatory" meaning. Reverse meanings are read for cards upside-down to the diviner. Since most people are familiar with the cards of the Major Acana, here is the complete descriptions of each's meanings: 0 THE FOOL Divinatory Meanings: Thoughtlessness. Folly. Extravagance. Lack of discipline. Immaturity. Irrationality. Insecurity. Frivolity. Delirium. Frenzy. Enthusiasm. Naivete. Reverse Meanings: Bad decision. Indecision. Apathy. Hesitation, Negligence. I THE MAGICIAN Divinatory Meanings: Originality. Creativity. Imagination. Self-reliance. Spontaneity. Selfconfidence. Ingenuity. Flexibility. Masterfullness. Self-control. Deception. Sleight-ofhand. Reverse Meanings: Weakness of Will. Ineptitude. Insecurity. Disquiet Delay. The use of one's skill for destructive ends. II THE HIGH PRIESTESS Divinatory Meanings: Wisdom. Sound Judgement. Common sense. Serenity. Objectivity. Penetration. Foresight Intuition. Perception. Self-reliance. Emotionlessness. Platonic relationships. Reverse Meanings: Ignorance. Shortsightedness. Selfishness. Passion. Physical ardor. Acceptance of superficial knowledge. Improper judgement III THE EMPRESS Divinatory Meanings: Feminine progress. Fruitfulness. Accomplishment. Mother. Sister. Wife. Marriage. Children. Feminine influence. Ability to motivate others. Practicality. Intuition. Reverse Meanings: Vacillation. Inaction. Lack of interest. Lack of concentration. Indecision. Delay. Anxiety.

S EETAROT/PAGE B4 Fortune-teller brings future to the surface with cards Each of us experiences thrills on a day-to-day basis, when life brings a new shock around each turn of fate. In our minds we know that destiny can terminate our mortality in the instantaneous screech of car brakes or it can amass fortune and glory upon a long prosperous life. Discovering the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune can be almost as painful andfrighteningas those weapons' physical wounds. With this in mind, I met with Mrs. Jenny, a psychic located in Escondido, with mote than a little anxiety. Mrs. Jenny offers three types of readings: psychic readings based on perceptions of the individual as a whole; palm readings, which rely on the lines and formations of the entire hand; or tarot card readings. I figured that after three cups of • coffee, a psychic reading might reveal that I was hyperactive and would live a very short, frenetic life. The palm reading was out because I hate people to discover that I chew my nails. For me, the tarot card reading seemed the most mysterious of the three. If nófRing else, having one's future foretold by a deck of cards makes for delicious metaphor. Six years ago, I had a card reading from Mrs. Jenny which turned out to be remarkably correct I'm not saying I necessarily believe in the luck of the draw, but the - coincidence of occurrence with her predictions was astounding. Back then, Mrs. Jenny read that I would return to school, marry a faircomplected woman who would bear one or six of my children and start writing again. Much to my delight, all of these predictions either came true or are currently in progress (I am pretty certain my fair-complected wife will bear only one of my kids). I can't tell you the predictions at my recent go at psychic counseling (doing so might effect the outcome of the readings), but I can share with you my own sensory perceptions on the event. The room where the readings take place is filled with religious statues and pictures, making the jymosphere feel warm and friendly. | here are no crystal balls or dark shadows in the room, only amicable S BY L ARRY BOISJOLIE warmth. I sat only a few feet from the augur, facing her through the entire reading. On a table to her right sat two decks of cards. She chose an old, worn deck that, at first glance, appeared to be a normal stack of playing cards. However alT the cards (even the hearts and diamonds) were printed in black ink. On each card was etched a picture. Mrs. Jenny said the cards were one of two decks left in the world. I cut the deck three times, supposedly transferring my energies into the deck, then chose one stack for the reading. On the table, she laid out nine cards from the stack in three rows. The seer then explained the mean-* ing of each card. Many people misperceive psychic readings as a one-way conversation where the reader does all the talking while the readee nods in amazement. Actually, the psychic asks many questions to help guide the flow of predictions. With each card came questions. After I forwarded the answers to the best of my ability, Mrs. Jenny would proceed to analyze my response and tell me an event that was yet to come. Some critics maintain that psychics hold intuitive powers that are by no means extra-sensory. Their training simply conditions them to seek out what people need in an answer. Fortune-tellers simply tell them what they want to hear. Just face it, when customers hear a positive future they will be pacified and happy. The fortuneteller earns a few dollars and everyone is happy. I left the reading not really knowing if Mrs. Jenny's power lies with psychic intuition or years of training. Whatever it may be, it left me feeling a little more secure about the future and confident in myself. �T AROT CONTINUED FROM PAGE B3 Failure to control petty emotions.

Local Exhibits Show That Art Is Not Blind . .. People Are D EBBIE DUFFY/PIONEER Have you ever attempted working on a piece of art and had it fall apart in your hands? John Raggio! has. Raggio! loves working with clay, but his first try at creating a perfect clay pot ended up thrust against a wall. Deciding to createaworkablepiece of art out of a failed piece of clay pot, Raggio! developed faces with eyes, a nose and a large mouth with teeth. Raggio! says his mouths "open an avenue to spirit. Everything does not need to be perfect, the artist can enjoy the beauty of asymmetricalness." These pieces of art - these mouths - prove that art does not have to be perfect and symmetrical. Art can be fun and loved. Raggio! believes that "breaking away" from the symmetrical mold can help people "enjoy the avenue (they) are paving." Raggio! teaches this philosophy to his students, who range from 5 years old to adult. His love for living and his lust for art portrays itself in his work and in his students' works. Not all of Raggio's! art includes clay. One work is a large white piece of wood with a black wooden stand holding three shapes of different colors. The shapes are round, square and triangular; together they look like a rocket ready for launch with blue, yellow and red colors. The blue, red and yellow colors are also splashed on the white background, while the three shapes "break away" from the black stand. Raggio! calls this piece his "Primary TakeOff." His belief that one has to detach oneself from convention in order to enjoy the freedom of art is reflected in A clay sculpture adorns Raggio's studio (top) while Christo's umbrellas line the grapevine (above, left). this work. The colors break free from the black base and shoot upwards toward creativity and away from mediocrity. Raggio's favorite medium is clay. It moves, molds and shapes to his desires.

The French artist's current project "Umbrellas" consists of 3,100 blue and yellow umbrellas, erected in Japan and California simultaneously. Each umbrella stands 20 feet tall and weighs 488 pounds. Every time the art project is mentioned somebody would inadvertently come up with a brilliant "why?" and thousands of ways the $26 million cost of the project could be better spent. "Why not feed and/or help the poor" was the favorite response. What people do not realize is that Christo is exactly doing that. He is helping the people poor in openmindedness by feeding them something for which they have absolutely no capacity ofdigesting. He is showing that the human eye will eventually get so accustomed to a bridge, building, river gorge, islands, or rolling hills that it turns blind. In Paris he wrapped Pont Neuf, a bridge spanning the river Seine, in pink cloth and rope. Christo wrapped something the Parisians were so used to as not to take any notice anymore.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE B5 CONTINUED FROM PAGE B5 * All they saw was something in the shape of the bridge, but not the bridge itself. After removing the wrap, Parisians started to notice the bridge again. After all, it was the bridge that Christo took away from them for three weeks. The same motives generated the inspiration for "Umbrellas." I have driven the Grapevine often, and I realized after seeing the 1,760 yellow umbrellas how "blind" I became to the beautiful countryside. Changing the landscape so dramatically with those umbrellas is more powerful than hiding i t With something hidden, the memory of the original is not distorted. With the original distorted and in plain view, one cannot remember what the unmanipulated version looked like. The next time I drive across the Grapevine without the umbrellas will be a new experience. I will see a new landscape. The "Umbrellas" project's gigantic and timed scope parallels its eyeopening mission. The project takes place in the western, as well as the eastern hemispheres. Even the Hubble space telescope looking through apair of binoculars could see only half of the project at a time. Driving through the project, only about a quarter is actually visible. Christo used 1,760 umbrellas in California - as many yards there are in a mile. The Japanese segment is 75 north of Tokyo. Here they are 60 north of Los Angeles. Each segment's separation equals 16 time zones, Christo oversaw the umbrellas' unfurling on the same calender day and time. Tokyo is 16 hours ahead of Los Angeles; Christo simply opened the umbrellas in the early morning in Japan, flew to L.A. and opened the parasols here exactly the same time as in Japan. The coordination and planning of this little time-zone play was perfect For about IS miles {he umbrellas DISCOUNT JUR FARES AROUND THE WORLD & ACROSS THE USA! teaches that life and art are not so far apart We need academics, but we also need our brains to create.

Some are so far away, as to be only ochre points on ridges; others cast yellowish shadows on the freeway because they are mounted on overpasses. One area of the "Umbrellas" meandered through a cow and horse pasture. Under one large oak tree a dozen or so cows enjoyed the shade, contently chewing their cud, completely ignoring the symmetrical shadow cast by the umbrellas. Wherever umbrellas stand close to parking areas, visitors congregate under them, enjoying picnics. It seems all enjoy the environmental art. I enjoy it too. Not only am I thoroughly impressed by the "Umbrellas," I also came up with an answer for all those critics and their favorite "why" question. Because! Art does not need a rational, art may exist for art's sake. So what if it costs $26 million. It is Christo's money, and he can do with it what he wants. We have to encourage this type of "outside thinking." We can't afford not to.

Maybe I like them so much because they illustrate humankind's neverending battle with death; where the dead e scape t he b ounds of t he netherworld to seek out and consume the life from the living. Unlike vampirefilms,where death is glamorized and given graceful, composed elegance, zombie films depict death as ghoulish, clumsy and decomposed. Death is represented as a mindless, plodding state of .hunger. Perhaps I like zombie movies because I have dated so many similar creatures. Notice how the behavior of most males at World Series time identically emulates the behavior of the undead. I have never seen a zombie movie thatratesparticularly high in the acting category. The majority of the players are extras painted over in wraithish white or ghoulish green who are instructed to amble about clumsily in search of human flesh.

Beginning with 'Night of the Living Dead' in 1968 and ending with 'Day of the Dead' in 1985, Romero established himself as the chief purveyor of zombie lore. His trilogy explored the aspects of interplay between the dead and the living as no other ' B' horror films have. When Romero made 'Night of the Living D ead' he was a Hollywood nobody with a tight budget Even though color film was available, Romero chose black and white film because of its cheaper price and its natural eerie contrast. The film centers around seven survivors trapped in a country house (the owners had been eaten) while minions of zombies pound on the doors, walls and windows eager for a hot meal. The seven captives spend their entire jail term bickering amongst themselves about how to escape from being the main course. 3 R le "1" Fish o d«" 1 II T c s I I Tacos ao with guac, cheese, lettuce & salsa II II II L.??í.JL 2 fori 1 I I I 'Night of the Living Dead* moves at a taught pace that pounds on the viewers as relentlessly as the zombies at the door. The film becomes a metaphor for the conflict between life and death. What really sets the movie above all others of its genre is Romero's continual use of irony .In at least three key plot spots, the director uses ironic situations to confirm that reason and sanity will never be sufficient shields against death. Romero's use of irony is always surprising and often the c atalyst f or a nervous chuckle. T he m ovie's best part comes when the ghouls munch on t he liver and intestines of an unfortunate victim. One zombie is even shown gnawing on a detached hand. If you thought 'Night of the Living Dead' was gruesome, wait till you get a load of 'Dawn of the Dead'. This 1979 sequel came to the screen 11 years after the first film and is easily the most fun in the series.

But in a zombie movie, who the hell cares about moral debates? We want blood and guts. Romero spends too much time with overblown talk and not enough time with action. I found myself wishing in vain for a zombie to jump out of the shadows and grab a survivor. Our resident mad scientist trains one zombie, Bub, to suppress his urge to eat people. The zombie is even able to use a gun and play a Walkman. One of the movie's highlights has Bub cruising the hallways like a 'High Noon* Gary Cooper with six-gun in hand. The ghouls themselves are drooling, oozing masterpieces of make-up special effects. Unlike the other two C omedy films, they look as if they are actually rotting. Unfortunately, these ghouls don't get much chance to roam until the end of the movie. My favorite scenes are when a zombie tears off the legs of a military man and when a disemboweled ghoul's guts fall to the floor when he tries to walk. If you do decide to rent Romero's living dead trilogy for Halloween, watch them with the lights on and make sure your snacking foods aren't soft and squishy. I give Romero's Living dead trilogy five blood-curdling screams. With such classics as 'Night of the Living Dead' and 'Day of the Dead', you can't go unseated. Now You Can...
