The rumor among many top brass has been that Kotzer simply didn't get along with leading department representa­ tives in the physics department, as well as the people in Old; Main. If this is the reason for the termination of Kotzer's grant, it is one of professional immaturity. Another possibility may be the impracticality of funding such an experiment, when the University of Washington could do so "just as easily.'' If this is the rationale behind the termination of the neu­ trino project, it exemplifies the inattention that has left Western virtually unheard of. Standouts in our history like -Greg Sobel and his fledgling Washington Student Lobby and our alcohol rehabilitation center only can come about by taking risks. In abandoning innovative and revolutionary, not to mention beautifully intentioned endeavors at Western, campus brass are losing the sparkle and shine of what they most should retain. Kotzer is hard-working and a brilliant man. If he was dismissed and virtually ostracized, by any chance at all, because of his beliefs or efforts, those left behind should be highly ashamed. Death in Alabama Western never again may see such an opportunity as it did in Peter Kotzer and his Project UNCLE. In the heedless pres­ suring Kotzer must have experienced, we, too, can find poorly We all pulled that switch handled budget cutting. While some economic cuts are so. A while back it was Charlie expected, indeed required, Kotzer is a bright light among the "Excessive bail shall not be required nor excessive, fines Brooks in Texas.

It's refreshing to see students take responsibility for the quality of their education. More students should become involved in the struggles of their programs.

By ANGELA DEAN - Western's women's rugby team upped their season win record to 13 with an 18-0 romp over Langley. The Sunday afternoon game was played on a muddy field, but it did not seem to make a differ­ ence to Western. Teresa Fong scored three times in as many tries giving the team 12 points, and Sherree Porter kicked in one conversion. The game against Langley was played in place of a women's rugby tournament planned for Saturday and Sunday. The tour­ nament was cancelled due to injuries and lack of participation, Western's Coach John McCarthy said. Eight teams, six from Van­ couver B.C. and two U.S. teams, were invited to the tournament; five declined. Langley was one of the eight teams invited, so it came down to play. "Langley's a good team," McCarthy said. Photos by Gary Lindberg Western is one point from first place.
