Contemporary art highlighted re marks by New York Times critic Hilton Kramer, who delivered a public lecture at Western in November. Kramer’s talk, part of a three-day annual seminar by the Seattle Art Museum’s Contemporary Art Council, was given in Arntzen Hall on campus. Two other widely known art critics— Robert Hughes of Time magazine and Cecile McCann, editor and publisher of Artweek, a weekly published in San Francisco—joined Kramer for panel discussions during the seminar’s three- day run.

Much depends on the performance of center Jan Johnston if the Western women’s basketball team is to challenge for the AIAW Region IX championship this year. “She’s very important to us,” ac knowledged Coach Lynda Goodrich. “We’re keying our inside game on her. We’ve got some fine o u t s i d e shooters, but you must have a strong inside attack to open them up. Jan is it.” Last season Goodrich Johnston was third on the team in scoring (288 points, 9.9 average) and second in rebounding (270 total, 9.3 average). The 6-1 junior shot a school record 54 percent from the field, breaking her own mark of 49 percent set the previous campaign. “Offensively, she’s the best post player I’ve had,” stated Goodrich. “She’s always had fine shooting touch and has developed good moves. If we can get the ball into her, I believe that she can score on anyone.” Johnston also can hold her own at the other end of the floor. “Jan has really improved on de fense,” Goodrich said, “especially her quickness and concentration. She does a particularly good job of blocking out.” Johnston came to Western from Bellingham’s Sehome High School. There she lettered three years for the Mariners, but was hampered for two of those seasons by the restriction which limited the women’s team to only three contests. That rule changed her senior year and she earned all-league recognition, averaging 11 points a game. “I chose Western because I knew it had a good basketball program,” ex plained Johnston, “and I felt that I could improve my playing ability there.” Johnston was gradually worked into the Viking program, seeing only limited action the first half of her initial year. Johnston shoots over Seattle U. defender. “Jan lacked confidence as a fresh man,” Goodrich said, “so we brought her along slowly in the beginning. As She scored 16 points (made six of “It was really frustrating at the she learned the system, she became seven field goal attempts) and hauled beginning,” said Johnston. “Then we more sure of herself.” down 15 rebounds as the Vikings pulled it together, but just a little too Western began that season with an defeated Boise State University 76-68 in late.” 8-5 mark.
