The society is open to both college transfer and vocational-technical students. Judy Ray, recording secretary, explained the constitution. To be a member of the scholastic honor fraternity, a student "shall be regularly enrolled at LCC carrying a full-time load of 10 credit hours or more, maintain a cumulative grade point average of 3.50 or above and have completed two quarters in college credit work." To maintain active membership, a student shall have a GPA of 3.25 at the end of each ,quarter. National dues shall be $10 per initiate. Local chapter dues have been set at $1 per term, per initiate. A committee headed by Patti Baumann, fine arts senator, is to select five students and five faculty members as charter members of LC C's Phi Kappa chapter. The Torch staff and management urges all who will be on the highways to drive defensively this holiday season. Student Senate approved an intercollegiate athletic budget estimate for the 19681969 school year at their.Nov. 30 meeting. This is the first concrete action taken besides the writing of the student activities policy since intercollegiate sports were first thought about one and a half years ago. Senate said they would put $4,200 into intercollegiate athletics, which is almost twice the amount ($2,524) the district would pay. However, $9,600 for instruction is not included. It is possible that nine sports, including basketball, will be offered to men next year. Cross country, golf, tennis, track, wrestling, basketball, gymnastics, soccer, and swimming are being considered. For women there could be field hockey, basketball, track and tennis. The budget was presented to the Board of Education at their meeting last night, and a decision was forthcoming as The ,. Torch went to press. First Titan deadlin e due Feb. 15 a recent Fourteen persons attended Titan staff organizational meeting, according to editor Debbie Jo Briggs. The group discussed plans for this year's annual, a tenative layout schedule, sales campaign, and staff responsibilities. "I'm very pleased with the turnout," Miss Briggs said. "Most of these people are experienced, which will make my job much easier. I'll be able to delegate them more responsibilities this way." Jim Ulmer was appointed to the position of Photography Editor with Dan Rosen, John Brandt and Bob Adams to be assisting him in getting pictures. The production staff will include Vicki Counts, Sheila Doughty, Joann• Gibbs and Steve Wo<?ds with Jan Dietz to be setting all copy. Those on general assignment and writing copy are Louie Adler, Gene Cogburn, Jerry Foster and Leon Lindsay. Mrs. Betty Ekstrom is advisor. Many of these will work on different jobs throughout the year, Miss Briggs noted. "This will be done so that their experience will be more varied and so they can find out which portion of working on the yearbook is most interesting for them." '' Many staff positions are yet to be made," she said. "We just have to see who is best for what job." "Theme for this year's book is growth." she said. "It's quite obvious, but well illustrated in all phases of LCC," noted . the sophomore journalism major. Plans -for the book include . 30 pages of mug shots, 24 pages of divisions, 2 pages of secretaries, 1 page for library, stories on administration, 2 pages; OSCCSA, 4 pages; student senate, 4 pages; Board of Education, 2 pages; sports, 6 pages; activities, 4 pages; photo essay on new campus, 6 pages; clubs, 4 pages; and studentfaculty committees, 4 pages.

They will not maintain a Saturday morning schedule. time during finals week," Miss Briggs said. "Then comes the 40 or 50 hours of alphabetizing names and sorting pictures before we can even begin doing layouts." She also said the first deadline is Feb. 15 with 35 pages due. "Most of these will be the mug shots and division pages." "Our sales campaign will begin Dec. 11 and will continue through Dec. 29," she said. 11 A table will be set up on the Eugene campus and will be manned by staff members during the break in classes."

Everyone (well, almost everyone) was anxious to see how his classes LITTLE MAN ON CAMPUS and college life in general would turn out. After the first few frantic days, students seemed to accept Lane as it was. They began to drift into the habit of just attending school. Some students would come to class and leave again without stopping to pass the time of ~ay with anyone. Once, about five weeks ago, students came out of their shell for a few days and communicated with their profs or fellow students. That was because of midterms. Such comments as ttl studied all night, but I studied the wrong thing," or "Too bad you just missed passing the test by three points," were heard This week happens to be dead week. During the week all student activities (except ye ole newspaper) cease. Students are supposedly spending every night at home, using every possible minute preparing for next week. And what is next week? For the freshmen who are ~1=ying themselve·s to sleep worrying about passing their finals--I say, don't worry. All you have to do is sweat blood for two hours while answering questions that will tell your teacher how much you don't know. But remember--although the final counts quite a lot, you always get the midterm you flunked averaged in with it. Good luck next week, have a pleasant (?) celebration over the Holidays, and we'll see you next term at Lane (still trying to raise the GPA).--Charlotte Reece LI-BRARY- .COMMENTS By DONALD OWNBEY One of several reasons that I became a librarian is because I enjoy books and be-lieve in reading both for knowledge and for pleasure. Now my job involves assisting others to find and use books in the search for knowledge. Many books pass through the cataloging process at_ Lane Community College and a typical shipment of books will encompass many subjects of interest. To point out the variety of books that we are now acquiring for use by LCC students and staff, I went to the shelf on which books are placed before they are cataloged and picked six books which interestd me and may interest you. Right on top of the stack was the Pi9toriaJ Guide to the Moon by Dinsmore Alter~ It has 138 and 25 drawings of excellent qu::i lit,, nrl it is a good •source to find out ODD MART up WANTED: Reporters. · Sign for Reporting I next term.

Open the Sky contains short selections about the men who fly, the machines they fly in war and peace, and the environment in which they fly. Paul Dudley White and Curtis Mitchell have · written Fitness for the Whole Family for those who are interested in maintaining themselves iil good physical condition. There is even a section of the book which is concerned with the relationship -of physical fitness and insurance. Ibe Two Ends of the Log by Russell M, Cooper is not about the lumber industry but is an appraisal of college teaching and teachers and maintains an interest in the improvement of teaching in higher education. This book is a good example of the old cliche that titles sometimes are deceiving. An introduction to paleontology by George Simpson, Life of the Past, presents a study of fossil life and describes how living things were preserved and how they are discovered and interpreted. One chapter relates an interesting discussion of the theories of evolution. ·The last book that I selected from the shelf was Floral Biology by Mary S. Percival. The necessity of pollination; the biology of flower parts; and the process of pollination by natural means, by insects, by birds, and by bats ~re some of the topics in this book written particu larly for students. These books have been processed and are now available for use along with many others on a great variety of subjects. If these books are not of interest, perhaps others -will be.

I am, in rank, a man first, a husband and/or father second and an American third. I am not unpatriotic. I cherish living. I revere the world peoples around me and the opportunity to give of myself. I thank God for giving the breath I breathe and the ability to give breath to my children who I hope will love what I love. I am deeply grateful to those who have made my country a nitch where I can recognize and accomplish the above. It has been made for me to do all that I wish and I have but one real desire remaining. I wish to have a word about the way I die. I wish to speak with death and have it agree that I have done all that I can and I am ready to walk in front of it into a nitch of awareness.--Hugh Davis Don't block driveways Staff members- and students who park their autos across driveways of private homes near the Eugene campus, or otherwise obstruct traffic, risk having their vehicles towed away. Custodian Pete Balkema says residents have been advised to have offending cars towed away at the car owner's expense. PRESIDENT SPEAKS·' Parnell Accreditation due in 1968 Q. WHAT IS IMPLIED BY THE TERM "ACCREDITATION" AND WHY ALL THIS STUDENT-STAFF ACTIVITY IN REGARD TO IT? A. "Ac-creditation" is a term used to signify that, because the college meets or surpasses minimal academic standards, students may transfer the credits (usually only those credits tabbed college transfer, although some of the occupational course credits will also transfer to some fouryear institutions) they earn to other institutions of higher education. There are six regional accrediting associations in the country. Members include those secondary schools, community colleges and four-year colleges and univen;ities which desire to maintain standards insuring the integrity and quality of their programs and credits. LCC presently is now provisionally accredited. This means that our credits are generally transferable and that we have a three-year period in which to prepare for regular accreditation. This preparation includes our meeting certain criteria as to academic standards and completing an elaborate Self Study of all phases of the college. A team of regional educators will visit Lane in October 1968 to assess strengths and weaknesses and make a recommendation as to whether or not regular accreditation should be granted. The eleven staff committees, now examining all phases of the college as part of the Self Study, are doing work which will have influence well beyond the visit of the accreditation team. Their assessments of where the college is headed, what its goals should be, and how these goals should be implemented will serve as an action blueprint for many years. of tit] at re thE th · eg· pa so by si~ -thE or in~ NEEDED Bus boy, TV fixer This week's job opportunities include: MORNINGS: 1030-2 Live-in housekeeper/baby sitter ... hours 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Afternoons off.

I know all this rushing about filling a Christmas gift list isn't it. That may be a part of it, but it's not the real answer. Love? Yes; love is the answer. But what kind of Love? Love for whom? And why? That's easy, isn't it. You love your girl friend, your dad, your mother, maybe an aunt or cousin. What's wrong with that? Nothing. Except I mean the kind of love that can quiet a hungry child; console a sorrowing friend; forgive a wrong; call an outcast--brother; the kind of love that enables-~ai man to protect the girl he loves-- ·.from himself. Is there one of us so secure that he doesn't need a smile of encouragement, so poor .that he cannot help another? Is there anyone who hasn'tr felt lighter hearted all day because of a friendly greeting? These too are a part of that love. Because scientists are locked in their "evolutionary kick," they have wasted much time trying to prove that man evolved from ~ome micro-organism. Consequently, fhey have neglected the study of this very observable force for good--love. Since lower animals have been used in scientific experiments to a great extent, the researchers have been unable to agree on what makes a man destructive instead of constructive; unhappy instead of happy. - From this morass of uncertainty, then, our young men are taken into battle, perhaps to lose their lives. The more I learn of the working of the human mind, the more certain I am that a Master Builder created this complicated organ which controls our needs, frustrations, hopes, and yes, loves. Why should it seem strange that God used the same pattern for humans that he used for lower animals? Since He found the pattern good, why should He change it? Isn't it logical to assume that He crafted each creature accordlng to its purpose in life? Inventors ·surely don't throw away all parts, materials, and concepts when they desire to construct a better machine. Don't they use a pattern that has proved to be good, and then refine it? I believe God has constructed us in such a manner that we need communication, not only with each other, but with Him, through prayer. But how are we to convey this meaning--a loving Creator--to the "love-starved," "hatecrazed" people in mental institutions, or to those on the battle front who have lost their faith in God?

Looking back, I can't really see where my folks failed me- -I was provided with plenty of food and water and grew up in a good atmosphere, but somewhere along the line, someone goofed or something went haywire in the establishment. Stop and look at it this· -way--Iike who enjoys spending Xmas flying around in that cold sky. Don't get me wrong, I've heard about all those tales of Jolly Saint Nick and I do enjoy all the glory and publicity that has come my way, but has anyone ever heard the real truth about us reindeer that pull Santa's sleigh, or least of all, about my red nose. The reason I wasn't playing those stu,Pid reindeer games was because I had a cold, not because the others didn't like me. It wasn't my unsociability then, that caused Mr. Claus to choos@ me, then, it was be- cause I had a cold in my nose, causing it to be red and sore from blowing it so much. I'm sure you've all suffered from the same problem. To get back to my story, we were all trying to catch a last 40 winks, when here comes Santa and all the loot. If I'd known what would take place that evening as a result of my night carousing with the guys, I'd never have done it. Oh well, too late .. now, I told myself. Boy, was I ever going to regret that night. I saw the fat little old man coming towards me with that lead harness and cringed. Could I help it if the light kept shining off my nose and because of his nearsightedness (that was before he got glasses) that he thoughf'.lny nose glowed?. Anyhow, now, years later, look at my plight. Each year I have to plan when to go carousing (much to my spouse's chagrin) so that I can get a cold to coincide with Christmas and all that jazz. Then I find myself flying around in that cold sky asking myself, "Why, why, why?" So far, all my.children have been lucky-they're all girls and will never have to go through the yearly chore. As for the restof us, we'll be catchirur that last 40 winks before we' re off again into the wild blue yonder. Cj•i.>£ Wt.t-tWtt IiO£ ~ e « , \ ( . •• :; _ biu . • The Book Mark, Ltd.

Christmas i~: when Christ was suppqsedly born, but few people actually believe in, and follow the tea~hings of Christ these. days. So why not propose, in a similar manner ·as the University of Oregon Homecoming controversy, that we do away with Christmas. Why not? What does Christmas mean to you? Christmas is a time to honor loved ones with gifts, but you can do that anytime. Christmas is a time for families to get together, for people to get off work and a time to think a little, drink a lot, and spend what little money one has. How does the holiday . affect most American children? This brings to mind the sadly true cartoon that shows a youngster surrounded by a heaping pile of toys a,nd jun~, and comes up with the question, "Is that all?" Now, to examine those toys. What percentage of them are items connected with violence, war and killing? This is Christmas, the anniversary of the birth of Christ! Did he teach men to kill and create wars? Hardly, what he did teach was how to avoid them but men are too greedy and lecherous to love and live with one another in peace. Why does Mao, Castro, or Ho Chi Minh have to play God? For that matter, why does the United States have to play God? Can't we live and let live? This would be Christianity, then Christmas would really be worth celebrating and there could truly be peace on earth and good will toward men. What does Christmas accomplish in the hearts and minds of men today? We have a short lull in the Vietnam war, we have .illustrious thoughts of a fantastic Santa Clau·s·, but who in heaven or hell or ·God's_ ,·earth really cares about t\le true and original meaning of Christmas?

To me, these instances are all beauty in a pure form. When I say beauty in a pure form, I would compare it to the innocence of freshly-fallen snow upon the ground. Just as the snow wraps a warm blanket about the ground, so does the beauty of the Christmas season enfold God's children. Looking deeper into beauty, I would say that it has different meanings to different people. Beauty to one person may be summed up as "immaculate " while to another person it may be considered "fair." At ariy rate, the mood is there, whether or not we wish to accredit it. When I stop to count my blessings, I realize an even deeper meaning of the 13y ;\ "-::-.E JEl .IJSC.;\' Each person has his own favorite season of the year, to which he is rightly entitled. As for myself, I could pick none other than the Christmas season. My main reason for this choice is because I adore the beauty of the Christmas mood. By this, I mean the radiance, brilliance, elegance and splendor that accompany this particular season. Haven't you ever stood for an hour or so on a street corner just watching passersby burdened down with packages of every size, shape, color and form? What about the familiar ringing of distant chapel bells, or even tender voices of children singing the praises of a New-Born-Ki ngJ?I Con- ,,. .- ~ -· + _ ....~ - - true beauty in the Christmas mood. Not only is this beauty an outward sight, but also an inner glow of radiance that comes from deep within the soul. I only wish that the Christmas season's mood would remain with each and every person not onlv I/12 of a year, but all year around; for ind~ed the true beauty of this Holy Season hes in the familiar statement, "Peace on Earth and Good Will Towards Men." I would now like to share with you a story ( a beautiful story of the Christmas mood, I might add ) that was told to me while I was in gradeschool. Here is the way I remember it: As Christmas Eve drew to a close in a small nameless town hidden high in the Swiss Alps, people hurried to a church, high atop a hill to offer gifts to their NewBorn-King. The chapel bells hadn't rung for many years,, and it was said that they would only ring again wheri God was really pleased with His children's work. So naturally everyone tried to give bigger and better presents than their neighbor to hear the bells ring. On their way to the church, each person passed a helpless, old beggar woman who had fallen inasnowdrift, too weak to get up. As she called out for their help, each person ignored her plea and burried on towara me church • to present their offerings. As a small orphan boy, who had only one gold six-pence to offer God approached, he heard her cry and reached down and pulled her out of the snow. He then gave her his gold six-pence to buy herself a hot meal and wished her a Blessed Christmas. It was almost dark as he reached the small church. He still hadn't heard the chapel bells ring. As he brushed the snow off his tattered jacket and removed his stocking cap, he humbly knelt down in Immediately the chapel bells prayer. rung out a beautiful, melodious tune unlike the townspeople had ever heard be' fore. Rich men who brought gold and myrrh paused and focused their eyes on the small shabby-dressed boy who made the chapel bells ring that Christmas Eve. CHRISTMAS IN KUWAIT By JOANN GIBBS The first question asked of the two exchange students from Kuwait was '' How is Christmas celebrated in your country." It comes as a rude awakening to a normal college girl when the answer is something to the effect that there is no Christmas celebrations in the homeland of these students. The two students are Mohammad Al-Oj~iri • and Meshari Al:-Essa, and their country is an independent Arab country on the Arabian Peninsula . It covers 5,800 square miles and has a population of about 350,000 peop!e. After further probing, the students stated that there were some minor "Yuletide celebrations ·by the few Christians in the predominately Moslem country. A third student from Kuwait, Jasim AlQinae joined the group and the discussion turned to the Kuwait celebrations which are similar to the Christian concept of Christmas. The Eade (or Happy Days) is celebrated twice yearly. The first Eade is preceded by a month of fasting which begins around Dec. 2. In January the celebration starts, lasting for three days. During these three days there is feasting and socializing with friends and neighbors. The second Eade is for another three days in May and is repeative of the festivities of the first but without the fast preceding it. :: ,.;.;..-..-.,., ...:.~·--•-¼. -···:"'.·.
