6 Helpful HintsTo Save
You Time & Money!
PHONE CENTER STORE is a whole new way of ordering telephone
service. It allows telephone subscribers the ability to visit the
telephone store when they want, view the many sets available, and
take them for easy plug-in and 24-hour service.
It's also economical.
Now, Phone Center Store services come to CSUF.
If you're terminating service, bring your telephone set into Room
304 of the College Union beginning May 15 through May 23. Pacilic
Telephone will have service representatives available to quickly
process your termination of service.
This can save you some time and the expense of visiting the Phone
Center Stores at 1925 E. Dakota Ave. or 1649 Van Ness Ave.
Pacific Telephone hopes your academic year was a success and
looks forward to the future when it can again serve you.

gram which serves so many students. As with any program of
this size, there will be a few
problems. But one must overlook the bad of such a program
and concentrate on the good point
of such a program.
As a member of the 1978 Vintage Days Competitive Events
Committee, I had the chance to
work with some of the people
on the Intramural staff. In doing
that, I found tbem to be extremely dedicated workers, despite
being saddled with helping plan
and run the Vintage Days competitive events.
If the Intramural Program is
so Inept as Mr. Arax says It
ls, then why didn't It fold up
completely during Vintage Days?
I too, have participated In
Intramural sports dujing my
three years here at CSUF, and
I have nothing but praise for the
IM staff. I think that Instead
of cutting down the IM staff,
that we should instead compliment them for the fine work
they do in serving so many students.

While the thermometer hasn't

Bulldogs remain as hot as ever
in tbe spring sports. This tjast
weekend, the 'Dogs represented
_jar old CSUF in fine fashion.
On Friday, the women's soft-
ball team added another title
to the CSUF treasure chest by
sweeping the University of the

6-0. This gave the women the
1578 Northern California Championship.
Now, they will journey to Sacramento to compete In the western regionals. The top two teams

Women spikers petition for recognition, funding
Unlike most of the California
University and Colleges (CSUC),
CSUF does not have a women's
track team and may not have one
without university support and
funding.
Even If the support Is there,
CSUF cannot recognize or fund
the women as a team for two
years because of university policy. That policy requires each
new sports group to remain as a
club for two years—to show that
enough interest ls there—before
it Is to become an official team.
However, several CSUF women
are working toward the goal of
forming a recognized and funded
This semester, a petition asking for a women's track team to
be established was submitted to
the Women'sAthletlcDepartment
with 14 CSUF women's signatures, butwas disallowed because
15 names are needed to show
interest, according to Joanne
Schroll, women's athletic direc-
Recently though, a new petition
with more than 15 names was
submitted, which Schroll said she
fust received. But, sbe said,
problems still remain.
"Trying to add a team has to
be done far ahead of time," she
explained, adding that she already turned in next year's bud-
"Up to this point no nucleus
tas been maintained to deal with
the problems of staffing, funding
Schroll said funding ls "the
number one problem" because
the university's enrollment has
leveled off and no new money
ls coming in to support new
programs. Currently, the Associated Students fund 60 percent
of women's athletics-except for
the salaries of the coaches.
Men's athletics ls funded
through the Associated Students,
gate receipts, program sales,
etc. The Bulldog Foundation
provides scholarships.
Others do not see funding as
the number one problem, but
rather, the women's athletic department's lack of support.
William Cockerjpan, who
coaches the Fresno Pacific Track
Club (FPTC), said, "not anyone
there—CSUF's women physical
education—was    Interested   or
Lisa Shattuck, CSUF student
and main organizer of a CSUF
women's team, said, "We are
getting more support from the
men's department than the
women's department."
, Richard Langford, former
CSUF trackster and semi-coach
'/or the FPTC women, said he
was surprised that CSUF did not
form a women's track team when
athletic competition for women
began. He said California State
College at Stanislaus and CSUF
are the only colleges he knows
of that do not have a women's
track team.
At present, eight CSUF women
compete for the FPTC out of
the nearly 20 on the team. The
women pay a $6 membership
fee, buy their own uniforms and
shoes, and provide travel money.
On a CSUF club they would
have the same expenses, except
for the membership fee, butwould
go to more meets (about once
a week as opposed to once every
three weeks).
But, for the women, the money
ls not the reason why they want
to be CSUF's women's track
team. According to Paula Bell
team. According to Paula Bell,
another CSUF student and women's team organizer, there is
"more opportunity for competition against collegiate talent."
Langford. agrees "that school
provides more opportunity for
athletes, especially in a "participatory" sport such as track
and field.
Cockerman said that although
CSUF may not need a women's
track team, the girls "need a
place to develop so that's why
Pacific (FPTC) was formed."
Cockerman believes that a
track team will
help FPTC In the long-run because the women would be more
interested and in better condition
for track after graduation.
CSUF cross country coach
Gene Estes believes If the women
organizing the club keep at It
for tbe next few years then It
will become a reality.
"I see it happening," he said.
However, Estes said he has
seen two attempts by other CSUF—
women to form a women's track
team that have tailed. He said
usually there was a lot of interest at the beginning, but by
the end of the season only four
or five women came to the meets.
He said the university policy
of having a club for two years
"This waiting period Is good
for them to be sure the Interest
ls still there. It's nice to have
the uniforms and shoes all at
once," he said.
Estes has agreed to be the
women's faculty advisor If
needed.
Despite the problems of starting a team, several people feel
that once It is started It could
easily compete with almost any
college, considering the local
high school talent available.
Langford said there ls "no
question about that (competing
with other colleges). Particularly if you look toward the high
schools in the area. Fresno
could compete In the first year
if It was organized correctly."
.Yet, Langford probably win
not be able to coach the women
next year because of financial
reasons. Bo'h Bell and Shattuck
agree that a coach-to help In
training tbe team and organizing
meets—Is very important.
One alternative the women have
Is to join the- men's team and
form a coed team. This would
allow them to !« recognized and
funded Immediately by the university.
