State Preis Friday^Octobw^l^lÇBô Page3 O rigin of H allow een cu sto m s tied to p ag an roots By DAVE HODGES State Press Halloween isn’t just candy, witches and trick or treats, but rather an exam ple of the social and cultural .change that takes place over tim e, an ASU sociologist said Thursday. Hans Sebald said today’s version of Halloween is nothing like the original version— more than2,000 years ago. “It is a striking exam ple of how rituals and holidays of one civilization w ere redesigned to m eet the rationale of a new civilization,” hesaid. “ (They) could not sim ply ignore old custom s and hence build into the new system s the old custom s under different nam es and different meanings. ” Sebald said the origins of Halloween m ay be traced to the Celtics and Druids. “Apparently, som e of the roots go back to pagan tim es — before central Europe was Christianized,” he said. ‘"The Celtics and Germanics celebrated die turning of the seasons and brought gifts to the gods. “On Nov. 1 — All Saint’s Day — die Celtic people honored Samhaim, the lord of the dead, through sacrifices and gifts. They thought that with this tribute their souls would be breed and their sins forgiven. ” Sebald said the actual holiday w as m ade official in 835 by Pope Gregory IV. “We don’t know too many legends about the C eltics,” he said. “We know they had human sacrifices and believed in an after-life and reincarnation. “Hut the earliest reports cam e from the likes of Julius Caesar. Whatever reports he gave to the Roman Senate would be like reports V ice President George Bush would give to the U.S. Senate about Nicaragua. Sebald said the Christians m erely altered som e of the Pagan beliefs to com e up with their doctrines. “The Pagans were not devoid of religion,” he said. “Many Christian practices were grafted from Pagan rituals and holidays. It’s a graphic exam ple of cultural change. “The Christians couldh’t just ignore old custom s. They sim ply adopted these old rituals and holidays to new belief system s.” ‘ Sebald said there w ere two major reasons why the relig io u s holiday w as transform ed into today’s “com m ercialism . ” ' “First, on the night before All Saint’s Day, by tradition, the priests and .elders would go around and gather gifts while carrying lanterns,” hesaid. “This is probably the base from where ‘trick or treat’ cam e from. “Secondly, the way the church redefined the Pagan custom s caused today’s association of Halloween with witches and ghosts. “The church said the Pagan custom s were not good, but bad. Their spirits were not good, but evil. ” Sebald said the holiday is so com m ercialized today that the pre-Christian roots have essentially been hist. He said it is a “fun and joyful holiday” for children, but added parents should teach their children som e of the history behind the holiday. “If nothing else, the dentists protit,” he said. ASU sociologist cites parallels between AIDS, historical ills By ED SCH U BERT Stats Press The goal of a new sociology course being offered this spring is to put the AIDS epidem ic in its cultural and historical context. ' Rose Weitz, a m edical sociologist who w ill teach the course “Stigm a, Illness and AIDS,” said the AIDS hysteria parallels earlier epidem ics, such as the leprosy of Biblical tim es and the bubonic plague of the Middle Ages. “Many people, particularly on ty» religious right, are viewing AIDS as a punishment from God,” Weitz said. “Why would people respond this w ay?” . She said fundamentalists are preserving an attitude toward disease which w as formulated ift the Bible. “In the Old Testam ent, disease is treated as a punishment from God for sin ,” she said. “There is Biblical support for this idea. “Within the fundamentalist mind-frame, it is perfectly reasonable.” But Weitz said viewing AIDS as divine punishment for the “sin” of hom osexuality can lead to contradictions. “The group that is least at risk from AIDS are lesbians. So if this disease is a punishment from God, there are som e in terestin gm essagesforu ssll.” f She said the tendency to stigm atize homosexuals as being responsible for the spread of the AIDS epidem ic has a parallel in the bubonic plague, which first ravaged Europe in the 14th century. “There w ere many instances of Jew s being killed because they were suspected of spreading the disease,” Weitz said. “Jews: w ere an isolated population and appeared to have a lower rate of exposure.” It w as easy for populations that were already anti-sem itic to conclude that the Jewish population’s apparent immunity from the plague was evidence that they had somehow caused it,sh esa id . Weitz said the accusations against the Jews during the Middle Ages was the “inverse reaction” of those who today stigm atize homosexuals as being responsible for AIDS. Homosexuals are accused because they have a higher rate of exposure to a disease, and Jews were accused because they had a lower rate. “People need a scapegoat,” Weitz said. “We’ve got a m ysterious, fatal disease for which the m edical community has insufficient information to calm public fears, so the public com es up with their own ideas. ” Weitz said her course does not have any prerequisites and is open to anyone interested, but students should be aware that it is an upper division course with an emphasis on research.

The Arizona Board of Regents is on the verge of increasing your tuition. The board probably w ill increase tuition by $86 for the next academ ic year, even though they just pushed up the cost of an education by (146 last year. Cummiskey, ASASU and die Arizona Students Association are trying their hardest to prevent that steep of an increase and w ill be handing out literature on Cady Mall today from noon to 2 p.m. detailing why a $36 increase in more in line with what the universities need. Unfortunately, we don’t expect many ASU students to take notice of what the information said. Last year, there was hardly a murmur from the students of this campus when the regents increased tuition by the largest dollar amount in state history. While UA and NAU students have worked diligently to make the regents see the light that students cannot afford an increase — including rallies cm their , respective campuses and petition signing — m ost ASU students have not taken any action to influence the board. ASASU, ASA and other sm all groups have put forth all of their effort to help you, the average student, from suffering the moneyhungry regents, but m ost of it has been to no avail. Student apathy is not something to be proud of, and AS{j seem s to be a leader in apathy. Cummiskey correctly says, “There is no other issue on this campus that has an much universal impact (as tuition increases).” We agree. Sitting down and doing absolutely nothing only reinforces the regents’ beliefs that tuition increases are not hurting the students. From our estim ations, taking into consideration average increases plus the $25 per sem ester surcharge for the new student recreation center, tuition could easily be $800 per sem ester at ASU by 1990. If the students at this campus and those of UA and NAU refuse to argue with the regents on the negative effects of tuition increases, they have no reason to complain when the increase takes effect. letters Only 95 percent effective Editor; The issue of disarm am ent has quickly resolved itself to a debate over the worth of “Star W ars.” According to Reagan and Gorbachev, the nuclear arm s race could be stopped now if the two countries could agree on this issue. “Star Wars” has been held by our National Academy of Sciences to be unworkable. This is not entirely correct. They mean it cannot be more than 95 percent effective in the foreseeable future and can never be 100 percent effective. Since nuclear m issies can be made more cheaply and rapidly than the space lasers which would shoot them down, the system cannot be a stable defense against an annihilating first strike. It would only have value as defense against weak retaliation after a successful first strike by the side possessing i t This cannot b e construed as an instrument of peace, but rather as an aggressive tool of nuclear war. If you doubt this, answer the following question f5r yourself: how would you feel if the Soviets put up “Star Wars” before we developed it? If space weapons are developed on a national basis, they w ill be instruments of conflict. They might be useful if developed on an international basis. When the United States and the U.S.S.R, elim inate their nuclear arsenals, other countries might refuse to jean in. Their few weapons could become vary dangerous. Our Defense Department has estim ated 400 to 600 nuclear bombs could totattydestroy our country. It might be possible for the United States or U.S.S.R. to stash som e away, although public pressure in both countries would work to prevent this. Nonetheless, defensive technologies could prove beneficial in a disarmed future. What would be the situation if the superpowers raced ahead with “Star Wars” while dismantling their nuclear arsoials? For exam ple, if we put up a 95 percent effective shield and quickly built 400 to 600 m issies, we could attack without fear of retaliation or deterrence. The situation could be the reverse a s well. Nuclear disarmament is impns»ihia jf one superpower may develop iand deploy “Star Wars” before the other. Therefore, the only possible value of militarizing space lies in cooperative efforts m inim ally involving the United States and the U.S.S.R. and probably several other countries and the United Nations. D etails aside, we should consider the The truth about tuition Editor: Each year it happens like clockwork. The Arizona Board of Regents m eets in the late fall to set tuition levels for the following academ ic year. There is no other issue on this cam pus that has as much universal im pact. Regardless of yojir involvem ent or affilitation in different areas of study or activity, you w ill be directly impacted by the board’s decision. Last your, the regents raised tuition $146. . This year, the Council of Presidents, which is comprised of the three university heads, has recommended an increase in the range qf $96. The Arizona Studoits Editor: In response to Amy Frischknecht’s column on O ct 23 in which she stated that the lottery system for selling concert tickets is ridiculous: and the above situation did happen. In fact, the transients managed to get the first 90 tickets! And we die-hard fans w ere left.with inferior seats and the frustration of knowing we has no chance from the beginning She argues it is a “safe way to go, but fair?” And first-can e, first-serve is fair, w |en the first 15 people in Une are transients paid by som e obnoxious, pom pous “businessmah” to stand there for days and buy all the best seats? While the lottery helps to keep down rioting and cam ping out, it also helps keep scalpers away. A scapler’s only interest in the performer is to make a profit from his fans. I don’t think it is the only answer to the problem, but at least it doesn’t give scalpers an unfair advantage. Susan Steadfast Senior,’Finance True impressions Editor: In your issue of Oct. 28, you have a quote from Bonnie Wilcox. “We want to give students the im pression I believe thaw is one m ore serious consideration in the decision to m ilitarize space. If w e construct nuclear-powered space lasers and the Uke, the “spin-off” w ill very likely be newer, bigger, more savage and m ore efficient types of offensively capable weapons.

Charles Tabber Editor: The Associated Studoits Senate has recently passed an Amendment to the ASASU Consitution that is intended to prevent the ASASU Supreme Court from referring to*'the U.S. Constitution or U.S Supreme Court precedents in reaching its decisions. The argument is that the justices are not qualified to interpret law that does not originate on campus. This argument is spurious and a smokescreen. No one claim s that ASASU is immune to the requirements of the U.S. Constitution (though some would like to beL Everyone is bound by it, especially an agency of a state such as ASASU. This means that ASASU must comply with the Constitution. So, someone is still going to determine if any given action, or bylaw, is constitutioiaL Who will that be? The ASASU Senate. ° f course, even before this amendment, the senate was, hopefully, determining this. But before, their decisions were subject to review by a body that, however compared to a federal or state court, was far more qualified than the senate — the ASASU Supreme Court. That the senate is com pletely unqualified to make such a determination is obvious from its recent actions. The ASASU Constitution was framed within the suprem acy of the U.S. Constitution. It is preceded and superceded by it and m ay not be interpreted in such a way as to bring it into conflict with the greater docum ent. Thus, the U.S. Constitution is part of the law that governs ASASU. “N o government out to be so defective in its organization, as not to coitain within itself, the m eans of securing the execution of its own law s against other dangers than those which occur every day.

Every sem ester is the sam e. Prophets of doom visit campus with the hope of saving the souls of students. They leave as quickly as they arrive, and no one really knows where they’re from or where they’re going. Woronieeki, 32, is no exception. He lives th elife of a vagabond traveling from city to city with his w ife, four children and 10-foot cross he carries to his lectures. He doesn’t hold a steady job. He said he doesn’t have to because “the Lord provides him with everything he needs.” “I was born again into Jesus’ living spirit,” Woronieeki said. “I knew I had to tell people. - “Faith is all you need.” Woronieeki and his fam ily have been on the road for five years. They live in a trailer and usually don’t spend longer than two months in one place. Woroniecki’s w ife, L eslie, said, “We live a hard life, but w e’re here to serve the Lord.” Leslie, 30, said the fam ily arrived from Albuquerque on Wednesday and plans to travel to Los Angeles “after their work is done.” “We never know how long w e’re going to spend in a ci­ ty ,” she said “We go wherever we fe e l we have work to do. “Sometimes it’s difficult dealing with the rejection, but it’s worthwhile when you find a student who believes.” Leslie said she teaches their children, a one-month-old Michael Woroniecki’s ring and shirt pocket shows what his preaching Is all about. boy and three daughters younger than six, herself.

M exican newspapers protest ‘interference' of U.S. drug law By The Associated Press MEXICO CITY — Mexican newspapers Thursday staunchly backed the government in protesting the United States’ new antidrug law, charging that the singling out of Mexico revealed U.S. ignorance or even a plan to undermine the government. The new law, signed this week by President Reagan, . “im plies improper interference in our affairs and shares in a b so lu te ly fa ls e a n d sla n d e r o u s assum ptions,” the government newspaper El Nacional said in its editorial. Excelsior, a respected Mexico City daily, said sections of the law that mention Mexico “sm ack of hiding other aim s, namely that of taking advantage of the drug-trafficking problem . . . to make the country more penetrable by foreign interests.” A State Department report issued last week said Mexico in 1985 was “once again the largest single-country source of heroin and marijuana imported into the United States” as w ell as a growing conduit for South American cocaine.

The note cited a provision urging the president to form ally warn Americans of the dangers of Mexican travel “unless substantial progress is made in the near future” in the investigation of the kidnapmurder of one U.S. drug agent and the alleged torture of a second. Also protested was the inclusion of a “sense of Congress resolution” stating that the approximately 80 airplanes the United States has provided Mexico for drug erad ication “ have not been used efficiently.” Another section, which does not mention Mexico but could create problems for the heavily indebted country, would end U.S. support for loans to. drug-supplying countries from international development banks.
