With the approach of spring term registration, this question is in the minds of many students, especially those who found their sections full when they reported for class this last winter term. Here is the answer: 1. Reserve a place in each of your continuing classes by signing up with the instructor between March 1 and 4. 2. Pick up your registration packet in the Eugene counseling center between March 14 and 25. (Remember, early registration means better choice of sections!) 3. Talk to a counselor who will help you finish registering. New classes may be added at this time and others dropped without penalty. 4. Pay your fees when you register (or make arrangements to pay them later) The last date to register is April 8. Full refund of fees will be made until April 15. After that date, there will be no refunds. A $1 charge will be assessed for all schedule changes made after classes begin. Carry your validated student body card; it will admit you to classes. The Boeing Aircraft company has agreed to hire all students graduating this year from all but one of the Lane Community college's technical and vocational courses, Dale Parnell, president of the college, Wednesday told the Springfield Rotary club in a review of the school's first year of operation. The only course passed up by Boeing was the one training practical nurses, Parnell said. United Air Lines has also offered jobs to graduates of many of the courses in the vocational training departments of which Parnell said, "If we have any claim to fame I hope it will be in this area." The Beaverton Tektronix firm actually hires electronics students before they complete their courses, he declared. Operating temporarily in at least 23 campus locations the community college has now an enrollment of 1,500 regular students and some 3,000 in its adult education courses which are conducted in high school buildings throughout the county. ,By the fall of 1968, if the first phase of the school's campus off the 30th avenue entrance to Eugene from the freeway is completed, there will be 3,200 full-time students, Parnell predicted. The school has been called "the poor man's college" because a student can live at home and get by for $165 a year and the "drop out college" because those who cannot make the grade at the four-year institutions have a better chance at the community college because of the smaller classes and the counselling service. It is also sometimes called "Springfield College" because some 800 regular students are taking classes on the campus here, the former Georgia-Pacific office building which the school has under lease, Parnell said. Exams to Come March 14-18 Winter term examinations are to be given the week of March 14 and 18 on both the Springfield and Eugene campuses. The schedule for Eugene will be much like the one for fall term, but the Springfield sections will be combined and most of the exams given at one time, according to Mr. G. R.

Busy Council Meets Weekly To Carry on Student Affairs Action taken during recent meetings of Student Council has resulted in the installation of new student officers, the formation of committees, and the organization of clubs. Student Council has been meeting every Tuesday in the KRVM studio in Eugene. New officers installed by President Charles Solomon were: Darrol Gesh, second vicepresident; Kathy Downing, recording secretary; Pam Shurtliff, corr es ponding secretary, and GiGi Gamble, treasurer. Representatives from each division: Jim Bard, Electronics; Gary Fogelson, Mechanics; Dave Larsen, Communications; Karen Moe, Social Science; Susan Sappington, MDTA; Penny Shields, Business Education; Dave Spriggs, Construction; Bob Wimberly, Math and Science; and Karen Thornton, Newspaper Representative. The L.c.c. student council is the ultimate student authority with all activities emanating through it. It will set the pace and tenor and direction student activities will take in the future as it sets vital precedents. The student council shaii have as many liberties as it exercises good judgment. Committees have been formed to take action in certain student affairs. A new dress-code committeee consisting of members from the permanent council has been formed to stipulate the regulations of the code. The committee consisting of Pam Shurtliff, chairman, Karen Moe, John Block, and Nancy Wendt proposed the following outline to the council: Proper class attire for women would eliminate the wearing of slacks to both daytime and evening classes with the exception of P.E. Proper attire for men is restricted to the wearing of socks with sandals and no Bermudas more than six inches above the knees. School clothes are to be worn to all school functions and sports activities unless otherwise stated. During dead week students may wear what they wish. A student handbook committee made up of Jim Bard, chairman, Kathy Downing, Pam Shurtliff, and Karen Thornton will look into the revision of the present handbook. A committee to look into the possibility of a scholarship trophy at LCC, includes Darrol Gesh, chair man, Barbara Hayner, and Dave Spriggs. As a community activity, Karen Moe and Nancy Wendt will be instructed in voter registration by a courthouse official. This will enable them to register LCC students who are 21, to vote during elections. This service will be available in March. All club responsibilities shall be delegated by the student council and the clubs must function according to the constitution it presents to the student council. A permanent club constitutionreviewing committee is in process. Dave Larsen is acting chairman. Five students who are interested will complete the committee. Dr. Parnell's ·Desk- Roughly one-third of adult Americans do not vote in presidential elections, about one-half do not vote in congressional elections, and approximately twothirds do not vote in local government elections. A recent study by a Presidential Registration and Voting Participation Commission indicated that stringent registration requirements are a major factor in low voter turnout. The Commission urged a state residential requirement of only si:x: months, and a local registration requirement of thirty days. This Oregon has. The Commission also recommended lowering the voting age to eighteen and removing literacy tests, but Oregon has not acted upon either of these recommendations. Why lower the voting age to eighteen? It is my opinion that students fresh out of high school American Problems classes are often better informed on public issue than at age twenty-one, after three years of service requirements, he av i er study and/ or training loads, and preoccupation with jobs, all of which may cut down opportunities to keep up with current events, particularly those of a local nature. I wonder how the students at LCC feel on this issue. Perhaps some letters to the Editor are in order. The right to vote is a privilege, but that is only half the story. Privilege implies responsibility - the responsibility of exercising the privilege and becoming informed. The upcoming College elections for Board members and College tax levy on May 2nd need the attention of every person who has reached the present legal voting age of 21. (Not to mention the many local elections and the state primary elections in May.) The deadline for registering to vote in the May election is March 31, 1966. In the weeks ahead the LCC Student Council will conduct a campaign to register all students of voting age. Talce advantage of this opportunity to register yourself, and urge members of your family who have not registered, or have not voted in recent -elections, to do the Several clubs are in the process of writing their constitutions. Each constitution must be approved by the student council before any action by the club may take place. The following clubs are being organized: the Christian Student Fellowship Club, a Flying Club, and a Ski Club. Plans to be Made For Graduation Technical vocational students· planning to receive degrees this June should consult with a counselor to be sure that they will have completed all their requirements. Students eligible for certificates and diplomas in other. programs will also receive them at the June ceremony. Liberal Arts students with sophomore standing are reminded by Dean of Students I. s. Hakanson that they may be eligible to receive an associate of arts degree at the graduation. Anyone wishing to apply for this degree should clear with his counselor as soon as possible. MDT A Graduate In Peace Corps Diane Stieger, May '65 graduate of the MDTA general office course, has signed with her husband for the Peace Corps. They will leave for The Philippines in June. same. The college election offers a chance tor people to express their support of Lane Community College in a tangible way. Interest in a voter registration campaign also indicates support from the Student Council. In the near future the Student Council hopes to initiate other projects in the realm of community citizenship activities. One possibility is a Forum · on public affairs at which students will discuss current issues and interview various candidates. Again, I urge all of you to support these efforts to further general interest in these public affairs which play such a vital role in our everyday lives. PAGE 2 1 THE TORCH.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor, At present the student council is debating a proposal to replace the temporary code published in the handbook last fall. The appointed Dress Code committee favors the elimination of women wearing slacks to classes except during Dead Week. Proper attire for men is restricted to·the wearing of socks with sandals and no Bermudas more than six inches above the knees. School clothes are to be worn to all school functions and sports activities. It is admirable of the student council to attempt to make LCC a respectable and outstanding junior college. However a college does not necessarily gain distinction by its student's attire. Reputation for excellence in a college is determined by the quality of its courses and instructors. Rigid grading standards and campus facilities are also important determinants in judging a college. For the past two terms the students haven't followed the present dress code. Women wore stretch pants, wool slacks, and corduroy jeans to class. They were neat, clean, and in good taste. There have been one or two isolated cases of bad taste, meaning the pants were too tight or the individual was not endowed by nature with the ability to look well in pants. Our women in pants presented an appearance that was a far cry from the slatternly appearance some councilmen think will eventually develop if women are permitted to wear slacks. I seriously doubt that Lane Community students will acquire the appearance of a Sartre Existentialist camp if our women understand that student council has the power to revoke their right to do so. I see no reason for student council to cross bridges before they reach them. In my esti mation a continuation of the status quo should be observed by student council until such time as a student dress problem occurs. Furthermore, since the student council is committed to rep- resent the wishes of the students they represent, apopular opinion poll should be conducted before deciding on the proposed Dress Code. When a student council representative presents the matter to members of his representative section the typical reaction is an immediate twocamp, pro and con division. Bitter debate ensues. Nothing is accomplished and no assertion of public opinion is obtained. An opinion poll would decide the percentage of students favoring women wearing pants and those opposed. Then, student council could truthfully represent the student body. Karen Thornton Dear Editor, When I gaze at the shifting maze of LCC students sporting baggy sweatshirts, tight and loose stretchpant:5, capris, knickerbockers, cutoffs, Bermuda shorts sandals, levis, and jeans, a controversial question comes up. Should there be a dress code at LCC, or should college students make their own choices? "What is appropriate to wear to college?" One can answer: "There is a time and a place for everything." Students pre-· sumably go to college to get an education, but some modes of dress seem to suggest that they have come for recreation. Stretchpants and ski pants belong on the mountain slopes or around the house. Sandals and Bermuda shorts suggest summer outdoor sports. Sweatshirts and jeans are appropriate for dirty jobs, hikes, and sports. Are these clothes appropriate for school? What seems to be the current style for college apparel? Judging from the current fashion magazines the "big men on campus" do not model next year's popular fashion -- blue jeans and a sweatshirt. Neither do the girls model their college apparel consisting of a sweater, capris and tennis shoes. Imagine the absurdity of theprospective college girl outlining her college war~robe saying, (The above letters point up some individual feeling about this controversial issue. It is important that our student council give serious consideration to a positive recommendation in this matter. -The Editor) DARI DELITE 18th & Chambers A really delightful place To obtain the Finest in FOODS and FOUNTAIN Treats Open 7 days a week 6 A.M. - 7 P.M.

Mrs. Marje Blood, secretary to Mr. Bert Dotson is a member of the National League of Amer- ican Penwomen Writers, a winner of professional contests, and a writer of short stories. With some awe and trepidation the reporter entered Mr. Dotson's office to interview Mrs. Blood. She was smilingly greeted by a lady with short brown hair and twinkling brown eyes framed by brown glasses. Her modest unassuming friendly manner' allayed the reporter's fears. The interview began, and during the next few minutes the interesting mysteries of a writer's life unfolded. •• M;s·. Marje Blood, author of the contemporary novel, The Crooked Mile is presently preparing for the publishers a historical novel, ~onquer the Lonely Land. This novel is based on the life of Narcissa Whitman, and it nas involved_prodigious resear~h. "let's see, I have 20 pair of slacks, 5 pair of stretch pants, and 10 sweaters, and a ski jacket." Lastly, one must consider the atmosphere of the school. Student's clothes contribute to the wholesome or unwholesome atmosphere of the school. The atmosphere of the school should not suggest hilarity and boisterousness, and clothes can suggest this type of informality. Clothes can either add or detract from the '' learning atmosphere" of the _school. Ardythe Tym Counselor's Column This issue the column was written by Miss Delpha Daggett, girls' physical education instructor.) Questions most frequently asked about the physical eduction program: 1. How many terms of Physical Education are required? Five credits of Physical Education are required to fulfill the requirements for either a bachelor's degree or the Associate of Arts Degree. 2. May I elect the five activities to fulfill the requirement? Students must take beginning swimming or pass the beginning swimming test. Women are also required to take body mechanics. You may elect the other three activities · to fulfill the requirement. 3. If a course is waived will I receive credit for it? No, you may elect another course for credit in place of the required class. 4. Is it possible to repeat the same activity twice for credit? Only one activity may be repeated for credit. 5. May I take more than five terms of physical education for credit? Yes, as many as 12 hours may be counted toward fulfilling the requirements for the bachelor's degree. WILLAMETTE STATIONERS CO.

Both her novels range in length from 100,000 to 150,000 words. Her writing specialty is fiction, and she has had several short stories published in teen and women's magazines.

Her novel The Crooked received the second prize in the adult novel division of the contest. Writing is her avocation and hobby, and her extra time is spent writing poetry, traveling, and sewing. She laughingly confessed that she was attempting presently to write two short stories simultaneously, type on a manuscript, and perform her duties as Mr. Dotson's secretary. Her job as secretary for Mr. Dotson involves helping with public relations at LCC. She works with news releases to the local news media, and writes the ROUND-UP, a weekly newsletter. This is distributed to 200 people not including the students and staff members of LCC. , Mrs. Marje Blood comments on Lane Community College. "This school fills the need that has been felt for a long time in this area. The overwhelmi ng interest expressed by students, parents, civic organizations, and business groups indicates that this is true." When future writers ask her advice, she tells them that the only way one can ever learn to write is to write. She states, "No one can teach you to write. One can learn the basic mechanics in six months, but after that time it takes practice and perseverance. A writer must learn not to care what others say about his writing. Critics will criticize it, and friends will overpraise it." "While every writer wants to make money, one can get pleasure from the simpleideaofwriting," concluded Mrs. Blood. Her closing statement was a quote from William Strunk's "Elements of Style." "While a writer must sympathize and have concern for readers, the final duty ofa writ?:.

Business Ecfucation Popular with Many By Pat Norris One of the oldest departments at L(:C is Business Education. Mrs . .Ruth Thygesen, chairman of the department, has been teaching in the school for 18 years, 17 years in ETVS, and this year at LCC. Approximately 332 students are enrolled in Business Education. Some are taking only the three basic courses, shorthand, bookkeeping and typing; others take one or two of them and add accounting or Introduction to Business, both of which carry College Transfer credit. Thirty-five students are cur..: rently enrolled in shorthand, 102 in typing, 135 in bookkeeping and accounting and about 60 in Introduction to Business. Seven instructors teach in the department. Besides Mrs. Thygesen, who teaches shorthand, typing and bookkeeping, there are Mrs. Helen Howard, and Mrs. Edith Jones, who also teach those subjects; Miss Millie Hartstrom, who teaches college transfer '' Gemuetl ichke it,, In The Traditional Atmosphere of Fine German Cuisine Open 11 A.M. ti I 1 A.M.

Additional courses for college transfer students are anticipated for next year, according to Mrs. Thygesen. Asked by the reporter how she felt about LCC, Mrs. Thygesen exclaimed that she is as enthusiastic as can be about the new college and campus. She participated recently in a tour of California community colleges and said she had gained many new ideas for the Business Education department. Well-trained business education people are much in demand, according to Mrs. Thygesen. The school never has any trouble placing its graduates. - • - ------- - MDTA Graduates Hold ~any Jobs Eighteen women finished the General Office Clerk Course, on February 14, given through the Manpower Development Training Act.

The two teams meet this week in a show down which will probably decide the league champion. Bethel, with 6'5" Karl Luethe, Bill Smith and Les Charles all averaging in the double scoring figures, will put their perfect record on the line when they meet South Lane tonight. South Lane started off slow this year, but has come on strong lately, with Del Mann, the leading scorer in the league, and Terry Manthey, leading the way. Duane Daggett has helped mold this team with his fine floor leadership. Another important game this week will be the battle between Thurston and Springfield, both currently tied for 3rd place in the league. Thurston boasts one of the biggest teams in the league with 6' 5" Dave Gibson, 6'3" George Momb, and 6'2" Dave Stucky.
