This shows an increase of almost 50 per cent over last year's Winter Term enrollment of 2,923 students. All together, there are 26 more students at LCC this winter than were enrolled during Fall Term, 1966. Adult education gained 40, (1,847 compared to 1,817), and the vocational-technical divisions gained three, (813 from 810). The federal Manpower Development and Training Act (MDTA) program has 112 now, compared to 186 for Fall Term. Lower division collegiate increased from 1, 395 to 1, 462. In the fall of 1965, LCC opened it's doors to 2, 795 students. This included 806 in lower division collegiate, 572 in in vocational-technical divisions, 69 MDTA, and 1,348 in adult education. During Winter Term 1966 lower division collegiate had 815, vocational-technical 565, MDTA 65, and adult education 1,478. Spring Term 1966 saw the enrollment decline to 2, 729. Lower division collegiate had 809, vocational-technical had 560, MDTA 60, and adult education 1,300. For the fall of 1967, LS.

Refreshments will be served, with tickets sold at the door. The purpose of the dance is to help people get acquainted and have a good time. Get your date now--don't keep her waiting. --Debbie Jo Briggs BOB Cancellation of classes has caused quite a flurry of feathers among LCC's administration. Nearly 20 per cent of the students who registered for Fall Term had to make changes in their schedules. Not a11 ·of these were changes caused by cancellation of classes. No one has yet estimated the number of students who have lost class hours because of this problem. However, the complaints made have stirred up Dean of Instruction William Hein, who met with division chairmen Wednesday afternoon. I expect that the students will get action of this meeting. Up to now personnel in the Dean of Instruction's office have kept the facts tight under their hats. When asked for the number of classes that had been cancelled, the answer was, "we don't release that kind of information." I realize that this confusion over registration has been embarrassing to the upper echelons. Trying to explain the sudden cancellation of a class to an angry parent or a U. of 0. friend can be embarrassing too. The whole mess puts LCC in a bad light. And yet, I'm sure it would be easier for LCC students to roll with the punches if they did know the facts, if they could realize how bad the problem is, and why the problem is. A sore point with Sen. Wayne Morse is the credibility gap in America. He claims that President Johnson's press releases are vague, that they are covering up the evidence. This newspaper is beginning to sense the faint hint of a similar credibility gap. Although the administration has not withheld the facts or absolutely refused to release them in the future, it has ornmitted to r~lease them NOW, when the students need to know.--Vicki Merrill WIMBERLEY Precedents & Pree.e den ts Whenever a new school is brought into being, there are many new precedents set. In the past year there were many precedents that the class of 166 set for us to follow. Among th~se are honor rolls of the President and Dean, a newspaper, an annual, and of most importance--a student body with a student government to serve it.

DOES LANE CO:tv1MUNITY COLLEGE HAVE A GOAL OF PREVENTING STUDENT FAILURE? A. There is some confusion resulting from statements that it is difficult for a student to fail out of LCC. This does not mean no failing grades are ever given in any class. Each student is expected to meet the high standard of quality instruction. "Course content is not watered down. " However, as a community college, we have many ways of helping a student, therefore avoiding failure. The College makes every effort to provide a variety of programs and types of courses which will meet students needs and abilities. There is also a strong emphasis on individual guidance and coun- ' BOB , i' r . ~ :;:~/-:- ': ;r._;,., C'm On , Student seling, with a ratio of 1 full-time counselor to 250 students. Provisions are made to allow a student to withdraw from a class in which he is experiencing difficulty up to the 8th week of the term. Small class sizes are the rule, not the exception. A Study Skills Center is available to all students for specific help to overcome weaknesses in basic skills. One of the goals of instructors at LCC is to watch for sign of failure and counsel with the student about ways to improve. Each instructor has set aside specific hours devoted ~o student con£erences. A students is not refused admittance to LCC because of a low GPA. Through the counselling program he can often be guided in a better direction than he has been taking so that success can be achieved. WIMBERLY Body President get the lead out The general concensus of the college students at other community colleges in Oregon is that there is not enough opportunity for students to accept some responsibility from their administrations. Yet, when the opportunity does arrive and present itself, those students who feel so neglected are nowhere to be found. Fellow students, this condition is present not only at other colleges, but also right here in our own backyard. The matter of responsibility acceptance by the students can only be fully and most graciously sneered at by f1ose who are willing and do express the desire to use the responsibilities that they are given. The matter not only pertains to responsibility in government and classroom studies but also Eric Von Leiden. All of these activities were poorly attended. In answer to all of the worn out complaints I have heard, I say, 'nuts!' Excuses that place the rejection of your responsibility on other people is of little importance to me. However, it is important to me to see our Student Council spend upwards of $400 for a semi-formal dance and see a majority of faculty and administration in attendence, with the minority being student council members. The forthcoming dance is in the benefit of the student body, paid for by their monies, and organized by their people.

There is a weekly article from the president in The Torch. There are now students serving on faculty committees. We are presently working on how to keep the doors open to our college for an expected 600 students.

This action, taken by the Board of Education came after it was discovered that these classes no longer use the materials which the $10 paid for. Dean of Instruction William Hein said that he felt the removal of these fees would make these programs more equitable with other offerings. The average tuition and fees for Oregon community colleges is $225 a year; indistrict students at LCC pay $195, on the average. --Vicki Merrill . • ----···· I I: :i i I I !

There are now 300 such stations. · "Seems to me as long as I can remember I've been interested in radio and tv. Various adults helped get me started way back in the third of fourth grade. They would give me parts I needed, " Houglum rel~ted. 1 , ~; A slightly built man, Houglum stands 5' 10 11 and weighs 150 ponnds. He is quite serious about his job, and whendiscussing it becomes thoughtful and meditative. A teacher of radio for 28 years, his face lights up as he tells about helping others begin • their careers in broadcasting. • "Some of my graduates are Dick Cross, Dale Reed, Russ Doran, and Wendy Ray, all of KUGN. Ray is the news director there and also broadcasts University of Oregon athletic contests. A couple others are Fred Crafts, KERG, and Glen Mitchell, KVAL-TV commnnication engineer. The greatest satisfaction in this job is getting men like these started. 11 Houglum was born in Detroit Lakes, Minn., in 1911, but moved with his parents while an infant. He has lived here since, with radio being the center of his life. "Radio started off to be my hobby," he reminisces, "btJt it turned out to be my vocation." He even came into contact with his future wife at a radio station. "I met her (Ladelle) at KORE. She ~ad a program on the station. I happened to drop by one night.

SUN 7:30-1:30 ENTERTAINMENT i, Second game of season 1HE TORCH Jan. 26, 1967 PAGE 4 BETHEL CREAM.$ THURSTON By GARY NAVE and LARRY PIQUET Bethel used its superiority on the backboards and some hot shooting to annihilate Thurston 70-30. Don Richardson led the scoring attack with 18 points, aft~r sitting out the entire first quarter. It took little time for the much taller Bethel team to open up a large lead. At the end of the first quarter the score had already reached 21-6. Thurston never was able to penetrate the tough zone defense thrown around its charges from the outset of the contest. Mike Fullerton, who had scored 18 points for them last week, drew man-to-man respect from Bethel while the other Bethel players were in a stingy two-two zone, Ron Marr was the man chosen to stick on Fullerton and he held him to four points. Mike Wilkerson scored 16 points and again played a strong game on the boards, both offensively and defensively. Les Charles, with 14, and Marr, with 10, were the other Bethel players in double figures. Al Rackley led Thurston with 8. entered the score book. At halftime the score read 45 to 31. This ·was as close as South Eugene got the rest . of the game. Roger Schuyler and Joe Robertson each turn in fine efforts for South, Schuyler scoring 18 and Robertson, 17. This makes the second win in two starts for S'"'rin2:fieln. SOUTH LANE 82 WEST LANE 44 South Lane made it one win and one loss for the season by handing West Lane its first loss by an impressive score of 82 to 42. At the end of the first quarter the score was all tied up 12-12. Then Bill Lane' Duane Daggett started to pull away from West Lane in the second quarter. Lane scored 31 points while Daggett scored 21. Each bf West Lane's players scored, but this was not enough. South Lane used an effective fast break and controlled both the offensive and defensive boards throughout the game. SPRINGFIELD 61 SOUTH EUGENE 47 NORTH EUGENE 47 SHELDON 39 Springfield used a balanced attack all the way through the game to up-end South Eugene by the score of 61 to 47. Gary Garboden was the main stay for Springfield. He scored 25 points, high for both teams. Each of Springfield's players North Eugene ,used a last quarter flurry to stun Sheldon Monday night by the score of 61-47.

MULTI WEIGHT MACHINE BUILDS STUDENT MUSCLES By GARY NAVE LCC's physical education program has received a shot in the arm with the purchase of a $1, 895 Mark VI Universal Gym. The giant machine is used in bodybuilding classes taught by Tom Kienlen and Bill Dellinger at the Bethel campus. Th e Mark VI is supplemented by several barbells with various am·o unts of weight on them. Advantages of the machine in lifting weights are numerous. It has four different stations, enabling several people to be working on it at the same time, There is nr_ess.--ch.e st. ures.s_..-1ili!:h and.lQW....t>ul- each station may be converted into an isometric station by simply placing the weight selection pen at the bottom of the weights. Where is takes several minutes sometimes to unload and reload a barbell, a simple pulling out of the pen and reinsertion can change the weights from the lightest (20 pounds) to the heaviestthe station will go (the leg press goes to 140 • pounds). A safety advantage is the absence of collars to secure the weights to a bar; thus there is no worry of the weight slipping off the end of a bar and hurting someone. Also, one needn't worry about getting more weight than he can handle.
