Jos Kuipers, a 6-8 forward from the Netherlands, comes to Fresno after being recruited by the likes of Oregon State, Kansas and LSU. But unfortunately for the Bulldogs, the former Dutch Olympian injured an ankle in practice and has already had to miss both the New Zealand game and the Sun Met. "For Kuipers to really contribute to the team is at least-three weeks away," said Grant. "He docs have a lot to learn offensively and defensively. He's like Mitch Arnold.

I The Daily Collegian is an equal opportunity employer CSU, Fresno Wednesday, Dec. 5,1984 The Daily Cojjggiaw Fate of Collegian undecided Staff Writer / Randy Reed, CSUFs media council chairman, said Tuesday that if an editor Tor Spring semester's Daily Collegian is not chosen soon, the council may recom¬ mend to the AS Senate that "publication of the Collegian cease." The media council, which oversees campus publications, met.last week to appoint new editors to CSUF* five pub¬ lications. Among those appointed were Chrys Mitchell, editor of Sage, a biannual liter¬ ary magazine; Vahe Mcsserlian, editor of Hye Sharzhoom, a monthly Armenian publication; Marcella Martinez, editor of La Voz, a biweekly Chicano newspaper; and Raymond Odunlami, editor of Uhuru Na Umoja, a biomonthly Afro-American newspaper. The Daily Collegian, CSUFs daily paper, however, failed to gain a new editor when the council rejected the appoint¬ ment of the only applicant to seek the paid position. Reed, an AS senator, taid that if a Col¬ legian editor is not chosen by Dec. 19, when the council meets for the last time this semester, the issue will be referred to the AS Senate. The senate has ultimate authority over campus publications. "The possibility exists that" an editor will not be chosen this semester," he said. "If that happens, the media council may recommend that publication ofthe Colle¬ gian cease." "This would occur onlyasalast resort" Reed added. In Wednesday's meeting, the council voted by a 3-2 margin against the appoint¬ ment of Deanne Holweger to the Colle¬ gian pott. Holweger, a senior majoring in journalism, it'the current editor of Insight, a weekly newspaper at CSUF. Holweger could not be reached Tues¬ day for comment. Thote opposing Holweger*s appoint¬ ment. Reed taid, questioned the editorial direction and leadership of Insight, and ■ "were concerned how it would trantlate to the Collegian." "The question was about the overall direction that the Insight editor steered the paper toward this semester." The format of the paper, he said, hat been geared toward light newt featuret rather than in-depth newt and newt Reed, who abstained from the vote, refused further comment on the decision, saying only that it was a "bold" and -uneincrtrrl rvn.« ~ The problem with the appointment was unique to the media council, he taid, because there are usually several students who seek the position each temetter.

The ordinance would prevent the de- clopmenl, transportation, storage and retaliation of nuclear weapons, but non¬ par related uses of radioactive materials or educational, medical, industrial and .onsumer uses would be permitted. The si orage of radioactive wastes as well as the Participation in civil defense and evacua- i on programs in the event of nuclear hos- i luics is also prohibited. The Council, before voting heard citi¬ zens speak out for and against the mea¬ sure. Speakers included military veterans, spokespersons for peace groups, lawyers, business people, a law enforcement repre¬ sentative, a physician and several other A veteran of World War 11 said he sup¬ ported the ordinance because of a vow he made to himselfat the end ofthe war to do ! n ything he could to try to prevent nuclear war from ever ocurring again. Paul York, from the Fresno Chamber i Commerce, said "the responsibility of preventing nuclear war is the federal government's." He said twenty businesses m Fresno have defense contracts, and that i he ordinance would hurt the economy of ihe city. - Ron Markarian, a member of the Air I orce Association and the City Council's military affairs committee, claimed past¬ ing-of the ordinance would benefit our a d versaries. He taid that nuclear weapont ah worked at a deterrent for forty years id the ordinance would weaken our A main contention from the opposition of the measure was that it would be in eolation of the federal government's ju risdiction over national defense policies. But if supporters, who comprised a majority ofthe audience, have their way, Fresno will be joining 79 other communi¬ ties nationwide that have declared them¬ selves nuclear-free. There have also been I.SOO communities in* 14 nations patting similar measures. They include large nu m- bcrs of cities in Western Europe, Canada, New Zealand and Japan. Supporters claimed the ordinance it necessary in spite of federal laws that RooanUH/ThrDailrCatkrlan Over two hundred people crowded into the Fresno City Council Chamber! last night to listen to the discussion of tbe proposed nuclear-free zone ordinance. The ordinance patted by. a vote of 4-2. Immigration topic of concern tries. They alto had found work in the Midwest and the East Coast. And it is this spread of undocumented workers that hat spawned attempts at immigration reform like the Simpson- Mazzoli bill, which is endorsed by the California Grape and Tree Fruit League. The league hat formed a coalition of farming interests that includes the Cali¬ fornia Farm Bureau. Nisei Farm League, Sun Main and the Western Growers The needs of the farming industry and the plight of the undocumented worker is a problem that is "unparalled" said Loy Bilderback, CSUF history professor last night in the upstairs cafeteria. Bilderback and Melissa Arnold, public and government relations director ofthe California Grape and Tree Fruit League, spoke on the topic of " H ittoric and Legis¬ lative Approaches to Immigration" as part of Human Rights Week, which began yesterday and will continue through Mon¬ day, Dec 10. Addressing the historical aspect of immi¬ gration, Bilderback said there have been three major waves of immigrants, begin¬ ning in tbe early 1800s. During that per¬ iod, immigrants from northern and west¬ ern Europe, mainly English speaking, filtered into the East Coast and the .See Freeze, page 3 The second wave, in the 1870s, brought immigrants from eastern and southern Europe who spoke little or no English. And the third wave, beginning in 1965, resulted in tbe movement of people from Asia and Latin America to the U.S. "America is about half a nation of immigrants," Bilderback said. The first attempts at legislative limits on immigration began with the Chinese Exclusionary Acts in the late 1800s. Tragically, ihe driving force in immi¬ gration laws has been racist," Bilderback said. "The quarrel hat been not how many but what land ofimmi grants." During the 1900s, the agribusiness in¬ dustry began to expand in the southwest and brought with it Mexican workers flee¬ ing'a country torn by a bloody civil war. "The Mexicant found jobs and tanctu- ' ary in the Southwest," Bilderback taid. "Between 1910 and 1920 the Mexican population dropped one-fourth because ofthe war." The Mexican worker came when there was work and went hack to Mexico at tbe end of the season. It wasn't until 1975. Bilderback said, that the public began to become worried about the number of workers being de¬ ported because they were here illegally.. It was alto being discovered that more workers were employed outside of agrib- A non-profit organization, the coali¬ tion, named the Farm Labor Alliance, began to lobby for the Stmpson-Mazzoli bill and fought to have it amended' to secure their labor needs. "Congress did not understand our labor needs," Arnold taid. What Arnold and the Alliance did was introduce the Pinetu-Morrison amend¬ ment whereby the Attorney General would have the power to issue temporary 11-month vitas in the case of a worker shortage.
