INCIPIENT NEWSHOUND

Generalizations
often inaccurate
Recently-, th.e Torch_ and its staff members
have been accused of being "incipient newshounds" with their interests being directed
to "sensationalism."
This is an unfair attack.
Sensationalism is not necessarily a
quality of a journalist.
A good journalist
reports events of public interest, or as in
our case, of interest to the student body we
are part of and serve.
We have been accused of printing an opinion
which should have been withheld on the basis
that it was not worthwhile, since the group
in question was doing good work.
We were,
however, only reporting an opinion which has
bearing on a major issue.
The reporting itself, contrary to remarks made otherwise, was
accurate and reliable; just because we print
the article does not mean that we agree with
it.

However, saying that a news-hungry journalist is a sensationalist is like saying that
a person is an English teacher because he can
make it in no other occupation.
We, as editors and staff, do report on
faults found in the school and student body,
but to ignore these areas would be to ignore
part -of our duty as journalists---that of reporting all the news.
To imply that certain stories were written
to "stimulate contributions" was particularly
inaccurate. To date, the Torch has published
no such news stories. Perhaps had the accuser read the editorial in the March 2 edition
of the Torch, he could have realized that our
mailbox is hardly what could be termed as overflowing.

Neither of the present methods by which the
editors of The Torch and The Titan are selected is adequate. Each one has loopholes.
This year's editors were chosen by the Publications Committee, a group of seven staff
members and two students.
The ASB constitution specifies another way of choosing the
editors.
"The editor and faculty advisor
will select the succeeding e~itor who must
have and maintain an accumulated grade point
of 2.00." We need a change.
The editor-advisor method leaves too much
Last ·year's editor
room for personal bias.
may hold a personal prejudice against an aspiring candidate.
Often times that editor
has changed to another school and is not here
to assist the advisor in the selection. Then
too, if the advisor is responsible for choosing the editor, his choice may create bad
feeling between himself and the candidate who
was not okayed. The advisor and last year's
editor could use the judgment of several persons, to insure the choice of a qualified editor.
The Publications Committee method will not
do either.
Although students haven't yet
felt the controlling hand of the administration, giving a committee having a staff majority the power of selecting the editor
could lead to faculty domination.
The paper
should be the voice of the students and its
news should center around their interests.
And yet there is a need for a committee to
choose the best candidate.
This committee
would best be formed of three faculty and
three student members.
The faculty members,
one of which could be the advisor, could assume that the students do not select an unqualified editor.
The student members would
prevent the faculty from choosing an editor
who would be a "handmaiden" of the staff.
This way the editor would express student opinion, but still be responsible enough to
put out a good NEWSpaper.
Either a new committee should be formed or
the present Publications Committee should be
changed to equal staff-student representation.
The results of such a committee: A
qualified editor with truly student opinions.

Bloomquist was fully competent in this a;ea and should have been assigned the task.
Finally, I do not wish my remarks to be
interpreted as an expression of my opposition
to student involvement in the formation of
college policy. In general, I applaud ad·ministrative efforts to give students a voice
:in LCC affairs, but I feel that neither students nor non-administrative faculty are
qualified to deal with such a complex matter as scheduling. To submit the problem
to a vote is not to solve it, for an effective
election presupposes an informed electorate,
and in this case the student body lacks sufficient know ledge for a meaningful vote.
Furthermore, the alternatives being considered were obvious from the start, no committee was necessary to formulate them,
and one choice has already been rejected
by student vote.
Had The Torch granted me the editorial
rights that I requested, these explanations
would be unnecessary, and why my request
was not honored is puzzling to me. Perhaps
Mr. Wilt and Miss Merrill, with the incipient newshounds' vested interest in sensationalism, were trying to stimulate contributions to ~he editor's newsbag. Very well.

Dr . Parnell is late to a meeting. He grabs
his briefcase, stuffs a few papers in it and
charges out the door.
He runs down the hall
around a corner and slams into Mrs. Howard.
Both sprawl all over the floor. The Doctor
jumps to his feet, grunts a few words about
women always being in the way and is off again, letting poor Mrs. Howard pull herself
together as best she can. Dean Hein, who is
standing just a few feet away, roars with
laughter, then continues on his way.
Although this never happ~ned to people mentioned, I did see it happen to three students.
Yet no one that witnessed this seemed to be
overly concerned.
Yet what happened to the
preceeding victims? No doubt they would have
been considered terrible rude and unmannerly.
Some students are worse than this and no one
seems to pay any heed.
I once lived by a friend who owned a big
Labrador retriever dog. Every day about 3
p.m. this friend would come onto the front
porch of his house and whistle for his dog to
bring the cows in. And every day the big lab
would charge after the cows _until they were
all in the barn.
Occasionally I would watch this dog as it
worked. I noticed on quite a few occasions
this dog would be in such a hurry to finish
its work it would get going so fast it would
smash into the cows, falling head over heels.
Up it would jump and away it would go, back
to work.
Apparently this had happened so
many times that the cows weren't bothered by
it anymore for now when the dog smashed· into
a cow, the cow would hardly budge.
Are the students of LCC getting so used to
rudeness _ and lack of courtesy that they now
fail to notice it?--Jay Peterson

you all the best of luck in your campaigns
and may the -best candidate win.
The "fact" that elections seems to be a
established procedure to go through by elite persons to obtain a rubber stamp in
which they complete jaculty business is
not a "facti 1, but a fallacy. Student
governme~t is not for the people who want
to think they have power. They will have
it. How they exercise that given power is
the true determinant of how good that person is. It is up to the electorate public,
that the responsibility of election such a
person of high quality naturally falls upon.
The challenge is not only to people elected but also a challenge to those who
vote, or more importantly, those who do
not vote. I sincerely hope the students of
our school can take this challenge upon
themselves and conquer last year's low
voting percentage by increasing that percentage by 400 per cent. Even with an
increase that large, only some 1, 200 students would vote of the eligible 2,200.
The clamor for more activities is always
in the air. This election is one such activity in which the cost is only five minutes
of your time and possibly a minor cost for
the ink used to mark the ballot. We can
supply the pen, but not the vote. 1bat
responsibility is left to you.

Counci l doing
'exceflent' job

By TOM BLACK

The music department of LCC's Fine Arts
Division has doubled the number of offered
courses since Fall Term. Introduction to
Music and Chorus were the only previously
offered courses. Band, (one credit hour)
and an Introduction to Music (three credit
hours) class have been added.
Robert Norman, 11-IE music teacher, has
approximately 90 students. Norman said
he eventually hopes to have a full program
for under-graduates.
"Next year Music Theory (four credit
hours) will be offered for music majors
and other interested students, " said Norman. There will also be a course in Basic

Comparing notes are Lavonne Hamlin and Robert Norman, lecturer in music.

By DON WILT
LCC's student council generally is doing
a good job. This was the opinion expressed
by former second Vice President Darron
Gesh in an interview Monday.
Several questions were raised when Gesh
resigned his office at the beginning of
Winter Term. Did he feel that his time
was being wasted? Weren't the othcr1 of-

and woodwinds is under consideration.
Presently classes, such as Intro. to Music
and Chorus are meeting on the Bethel campus, but Band meets at the KRVM studio
on Tuesday and Thursdays at 5:30 p. m.
The music department has been given
room in the first phase of the new campus
to supply its needs until the second phase,
which houses the music department, is
built. Until the second phase is completed,

separate band room, a separate chorus
room, four small classrooms, and four practice rooms. 11 A music library and office
will also be located on the basement floor

Norman is alone this year, but also hopes
to double his staff for next year as he did
the number of courses this year.

council?
The answer to these questions was a very
positive, "no. My only reason for quitting,"
said Gesh, "is because I work and my boss
wanted to extend my hours. "
"At the time of my resignation I thought
the council was doing an excellent job.

students closer to the administration. Of
course they're very young. It will be some
