They spent most of their time in Olympia Brewing Company, Olympia. Washington consider "T" n a world buffeted by change lli i i ti II the unchanging church key. II On a fateful day in October, 19 b), Mac C. Rosenfeld received Patent 1,260,321 for it. A gleaming symphony of spring steel, the church key was used by three generations of thirsty collegiate Oly drinkers. Not until the twist-to was its utility questioned, although the discriminating Oly drinker will always keep one on hand for tav-Stubbies and Oldtime bottles. The design of the church key hasn't changed because it was made with skill, ingenuity and simplicity. A great beer doesn't change for many of the same reasons. If it's done right going in, you have an unchanging standard of quality. Some things never change. Olympia never will. Beer doesn't get any better. the women's quarter of the house; they performed their household tasks and very little else." It sounds like a description of the modern day woman presented from the feminist angle rather than the history of ancient Greece, and some would argue that there has been little progress between ancient Greece and 1976 but Wendy West takes a different view. Wendy West is a senior studying psychology and the only woman appointed to the Weber State College Supreme Court. The fulfilling role of women in West's eyes is to fulfill whatever they want to be, what they can be, or what they should be. "The only woman that is a disappointment in rrf eyes," says West, "is one who does not fulfill what she wants to be, whether it be homemaker, Indian chief, doctor, lawyer ... anything, as long as she feels she does what she believes in, then I have a lot of respect for her. "I think her role, or her function is to do whatever she cares to do in productive fulfillment," she continued.

STATE X of Women's Liberation to the females in Utah, West observed that "females in Utah have been ... pretty well liberated." "I think that they have the opportunities open to them and if they wanted to take them they're there for the taking." However, in some areas she explained, "barriers are a little stronger, more resistable than they are for a male." West stated that she not only supported women's rights but also the rights of men. "I think we need a freedom of sexuality she continued. "I think that there are a lot of positions that are unrealistically limited to either men or women ... and I think that can be abolished." "I am not saying that Wendy West basic commonalities and basic kinds of capacities that don't have to be limited by a gender." Stereotyped female role West mentioned that the trend is slowly shifting for male acceptance in the traditional and stereotyped female role and labeled the period of suffrage as very difficult. "If you've got a good secretary and he's male, big deal!" she commented. When speaking of her role for the Supreme Court West defines her role of fulfillment. "I accepted the job mainly because I was involved with Student Government and I thought that the Supreme Court was a vital place for me to be because I'm concerned more with the policy kinds of organization ... rather than the basic making sure things get done. I'm more concerned with what kinds of things should get done and interpreting constitution."West replied that she did not receive "flak" from any of the 1976 "The only woman that is a disappointment in my eyes," says Wendy West, "is one who does not fulfill what she wants to be, whether it be homemaker, Indian Chief, doctor, lawyer ... whatever, as long as she does what she believes in; then I have a lot of respect for her.
