Bulldogs lose heartbreaker to Fullerton
By BUI Bird
Sports Editor
Stranger things have happened.
Fullerton State's Kerry Boagni provided
all the heroics that the Titans would need
last night as his last second tip in of a
missed Tony Neal shot provided the winning
margin over the Fresno State Bulldogs,
52-51.
The Bulldogs had battled back from a
o point first-half deficit to take a 48-41
lead with a little over three minutes
remaining in the game before the Titan's
battled back behind the outside shooting
of Kevin Henderson.
Henderson, who was high scorer on the
night with 16 points, made a crucial three
point shot from the right side of the key
with under a minute remaining to give
Fullerton State a 5(M9 lead.
Jos Kuipers put the lead back into the
Bulldog's favor, 51 -50, with a lay in off the
glass. But it was a short-lived advantage as
Boagni, who finished with  14 points, Kuipers contributed   14. Guard  Mitch

Bulldog swimmers drop matches to Cal and San Jose
Defending champion California was
the big winner in a Northern Pacific
Athletic Conference triple dual swim meet
versus the FSU wajnen and the San Jose
State Spartans, Saturday at the Fresno
State pool.
The Bear's most prominent competitor,
Mary T. Meagher, was not present for
Saturday's meet due to an engagement in
Chicago. Meagher, also known as "Madame
Butterfly," is the current world record
holder in the 100 and 200-meter butterfly.
She also won three gold medals at the
1984 summer Olympic games.
However, Olympians Agneta Marensson
of Sweden and Conny van Bentum of the
Netherlands along with three time All-
Americans Helen Jameson and Leslie
Lonnberg compensated for  Meagher's
Cal beat the Bulldogs 90-32, establishing
some new pool records in the 100-meter
breast (1:18.61), 200-meter butterfly
(2:13.11). 200-meter back (2:19.61), 100-
meter butterfly (1:03.64) and the 200-
meter freestyle relay (1:38.99).
Fresno State sophomore Kristen Turner
cranked out two first ulace finishes in the
50 (25.17) and 100 (54.67) / meter free and
a second (1:56.83) in the 200-meter free¬
style. Tracy Gearhart placed second in the
200-meter back (2:27.02) with Jamie Frey
placing second in both 100 (1:11.97) and
200 (2:40.67) /meter breaststroke. Cindy
Raynor also placed second in the 100-
meter (1:02.66) for the Bulldogs.
"We scored higher than I ever remem¬
bered against Cal," said FSU Head Coach
Billie Posten. "We had a good race against
Cal,  and  this  is  the  first  time  that   I
remember having anyone  qualify  for
nationals in our pool."
The Bears' 200-meter medley relay team
of .Jameson, Martensson, van Bentum
and Cindy Tuttle"qualified for NCAA
competition with a time of 1:47.41.
Against the Spartans, the Bulldogs were
edged out"62-60.
"We would have beaten San Jose had
we had Leslie Paull; and we would have
picked up a couple of more first places,"
said Posten.
Paull, the freshman standout and the
Bulldogs number
did not compere in today's
injury. Paull suffered a concussion playing
hockey and has not full recovered. Posten
said Paull would not return until "the
headaches are gone.
Turner swept the 50, 100, and 200-
meter free relay team consisting of Raynor,
Gearhart and Turner that took first place
with a time of 1:42.23.
"I'm pleased with what we did today,
sometimes we're better than anticipated,"
Posten said.
The Bulldogs will be traveling this week¬
end, competing against Sacremento on
Feb. 8 and against San Francisco State on
Saturday. ■*

M.L. King table defaced,
police ponder vandalism
The Martin Luther King table in the
Free Speech Area was defaced yesterday
by vandals. The incident was labeled a
"cowardly act" by the president of the
Pan-African Union, Greg Barfield.
Daryl-Glen Ford, KFSR public affairs
director, said he saw an elongated pool of
yellow paint on the table when he arrived
on campus at 7:30 a.m.
"It was fresh, and it wasnt spilled
anywhere else," he said. A few hours later,
the table was cleaned up by order of
William Corcoran, dean of student
affairs. The table is located in front of the
old cafeteria.
According to campus security, it
looked like the job of vandals but there
was no permanent damage.
Corcoran said he hopes the act was not
deliberate, and he is seeking information
about any students who might be impli¬
cated.
The table's "long history of vandalism"
plus the timing of the incident infers
s a likely motive, Barfield in-

The 'how' of institutional racism
Institutional racism can occur either
intentionally or unintentionally. Patricia
Pickford, a professor of social work,
thinks CSUF see* a fair amount of the
latter, but it is nonetheless real.
"Institutional racism either unintention¬
ally or systematically gives preferred status
to members of the majority group through
a series of practices that might have been
occurring oveT long periods of time," said
Pickford.
Using a hypothetical situation on how
institutional racism operates, Pickford
explained: A given university, not CSUF,
gives preference to the graduates of certain
high schools, and those high schools have
predominantly white students in them.
The university may have reached this
decision based on the historic academic
performance of people from those in¬
stitutions and have a perfectly valid
rationale for trying to get people who they
know will do well in college..
"But what that doesn't take into conside¬
ration is that they may be unintentionally
but systematically discriminating against
people on the basis of ethnicity, because
the likelihood of ethnic minorities going
to those particular institution* is zilch,"
laid Pickford.
Of intentional racism, Pickford believe*
there are very few out-and-out racists at
CS U F and has even been accused of being
racist herself. This, she said, is because she*
returned writing alignments to her ethnic
students so they have a chance to redo
assignments to improve their writing skills.
The additional work is seen as racist on
Pickford* part, but her intentions, she
said, are just the opposite.
Pickford said she tries to teach all her
student* to recognize institutional inequal¬
ity and thinks enforcement is the key
word, because though policies like af¬
firmative action are passed, these policies
re still m
dout.
■WeVe come • long way legally," laid
Pickford. "WeVe established legal right*
Tuesday was to be the rededication of
the Martin Luther King plaque marked by
guest speaker Charles Fair, an activist.
The table might have been the focus of a
secretive demonstration against King,
Barfield suggested.
It would not be the first time vandals
struck, he said. For ten straight nights
after it was built in 1969, the black table
was smeared with white paint. "Two or
three yean ago, vandals tried to dismantle
it, pull it out of the ground," he added.

AP&P to vote
'no' on plus-
minus grades
By Tim WW*
Staff Writer
The Associated Students Senate voted
against the plus-minus grading system in a
non-binding resolution yesterday and
agreed to send a letter to faculty urging it
to drop the matter.
Ann Johnston, AS legislative vice pres¬
ident, will write the letterto the Academic
Policy and Planning committee and var¬
ious administrator*. It will outline the
"damage" the senators feel it could cause.
The AP&P will probably make some deci¬
sion on the matter this Thursday, accord¬
ing to Paul Kryder, a voting student
member on the AP&P.
"If you take a stand, that could have
some input [on the APAP decision],"
Kryder said before the vote. He would
probably follow their recommendations
when it comes time for him to vote on the
matter, he told the senator*.
While their 9-3 vote against the pro¬
posed grading system indicate* some dif¬
ference of opinion, there was no vocal
