COMMUNITY COLLEGE

THE
3rd Year, No. 13

No appeal
planned

LCC has abandoned its attempt to reverse
a State Education Coordinating Council
ruling giving Mt. Hood Community College
first priority for receiving federal campus
construction funds.
The decision by the Board of Education
means that LCC will receive $310,870
of the latest $777,176 Higher Education Facilities Act money alloted to Oregon. Mt.
Hood will receive the remaining 60 percent
of the total by virtue of receiving first prioity for its building program.
LCC asked for 100 per cent of the federal
grant and decided earlier to appeal the Coordinating Council ruling giving the college
only 40 per cent. The decision to accept the
40 per cent is based on the conclusion that
the appeal is futile, said President Dale
Parnell.
•'The point system upon which grants are
made by the Co'Jncil contained some ambiguous language," Parnell said. "LCC was
pushing for a Council interpretation favorable to itself. The Council did not concur
in LC C's interpretation."
Coordinating Council members originally
voted 7-0 to. give Mt. Hood first priority,
with State Superintendent Leon Minear absent and Dr. Parnell abstaining.
This was the first federal grant received
by Mt. Hood. LCC has received $1,192,805
under the Higher Education Facilities Act
and the Vocational Education Act. LCC's
request for an additional $413,000 under the
urse Training Facilities Act is pending.

After losing nearly all of its amplifying
equipm,?nt, The Instant Relations are determined that the beat will go on. Saturday
night, burgulars left little but drums to carry the beat. Four amplifiers and two speaker
cabinets were stolen from The Instant Relations' house at 1028 Bethel Dr., one house
away from the LCC Bethel campus.
As Carl Pennington, a former LCC student slept, burgulars entered through a
back door and carried out approxim'ltely •
$3,500 worth of equipm,~nt. Arrangem?nts
are being made to rent more equipmtmt
until the stolen amplifiers are recovered.
A $100 reward is being offered for information leading to their return. --Mike Graf

Next fall students will be able to receive
an associate degree in nursing. The new
curriculum was announced by the Office
of Instruction.
" L,ewis Case, __dean of instruction, said that
an associate degree of nursing program is
being planned." The plan has been approved
and passed by the board. The course is a
two-year program with an associative degree bein_g offered after completion. No
extra cost is necessary and a student will
have the needed amount of background to be
eligible to take the state board examination test in order to be a registered nurse.

First graders ,

Students in the dental assistants class recently hosted 28 first graders from Douglas
Gardens Elem,?ntary School.
The children, who were divided into three
groups, were shown dental instrumHnts and
x-rays and instructed in their use. Proper
tooth brushing was demonstrated.
The program was designed to help allay
the fear children often associate with a visit
to the dentist. Each child received a
small gift.--Alameda Randall

Degrees
available

Any sophomore who thinks he may be
eligible for an associate of science of an
associate of arts degree should pick up a
request for a degree in the Admissions
office.
When the request is filled out and returned to the office, a counselor will then recheck the student's records to varify his
eligibility for the degree. If the student
lacks a course, the counselor will try and
work the course into the student's Spring
Term schedule. The sooner a student applies
for a degree the better his chance is of
making up any classes which are holding
up his eligibility for a degree~ K.P.

things: the survey was a farce, or premarital
collegiate virginity is going out of style.
Judy Bergstrom and Dottie Lowell, in research for an abstract, found that more LCC
boys tend to go farther than petting on the
first date than do LCC girls. This could indicate two things: somebody is relating a
falsehood, or LCC girls don't generally date
LCC boys.
According to the survey, more LCC boys frequent Willamette Street than do LCC girls-that is, if the relation between pick-ups,
first-date petting, or general sexual looseness has any significance.
The survey showed a definite increase in
interpersonal manipulation as the degree of
relationship increased, which is to be expected to a point.
Boys apparently exploit more than respect at
first, but as they get more serious, they tend
to keep their hands ·to themselves. Twenty-four
per cent of all LCC boys contacted pet, and
,twenty-one per cent admit going farther on the
first date. Contrarily, only (only?) eleven
per cent of LCC's girls pet and five per cent
go farther on the first date.

Putting out The Torch each week is like
learning a new folk dance. We try to put our
best foot forward, but sometimes it seems
that we have two left feet.
Every week we must decide on the number of
pages we will paste-up. If we plan eight or
more pages, we decide that before Monday so
the pictures can be printed, the copy can be
set, and we can' start laying-out before Wednesday noon.
Last week happened to be one of those
"lean" week, when it came to news and we ended up doing four pages. Besides news, we
lacked pictures and a feature for pages four
and five. Several items didn't get in, which
we regret, and we offer our apology.
Do you, the reader, want to see The Torch
flicker and die? What do you want to read

should be reserved for a feature? Should we

Mytholog y

explained

Dear Editor:

The last edition of the staff newsletter,
the Roundup, asked how many readers
knew who the original Titans were. The
answer given in the Round-up didn't convey
the abstract ideas the Titans represent. Any
one-sentence definition is misleading because the Titans represent many things. To
one author "Titans" suggest "strivers or
exerters."l According to the Oxford Classical Dictionary, they are "older gods who
were before the Olympians." 2 Neither tells
us much. According to Webster's New International, "Titanic" means "of enormour magnitude," "colossal," "earthshaking." 3 That's closer.
According to Hesoid, a classical Greek
writer, there were twelve Titans, the children of Uranus (an abstraction for the
Heavens) and Gaea (mother Earth). Each of
the Titans represented an abstract idea.
Kronos (or Cronus) stook for time. In art,
Cronus is represented as an old man with
a mantle drawn back over his head and a
scythe in his had.4
Another Titan, Themis, represented law,
order, and justice. She was represented in
art holding a paire. of scales and a cornucopia.
Mnemosyne, whose name means Memory,
became the mother of the nine Muses, the
goddesses who preside over poetry, song,
the arts, and learning.
It is easy to see why the Titans are
thought of as "of enormous magnitude,"
"colossal," "earth-shaking," from the representation of Oceanus. He was the father
of all the rivers of the world, source of
fountains, seas, and streams, and father of
the nymphs knows as the Oceanids.
We are more familiar with the Olympian
gods than with the Titans. The Olympians
were the children of the Titans, Cronus and
Rhea. Rhea represented fertility and the
fruits, of the soil. Father time, Cronus,
swallowed each of his children when thev
were born. Only by substituting a stone
for the youngest son, Zeus, did Rhea overcome time. Zeus made his father regurgitate the children he had swallowed, and the
new generation of gods, the Olympians, subdued Cronus and his fellow Titans. Metaphorically, the cycle of nature (fertility)
represented by Rhea, thus overcame time.
The myth can be interpreted as the continual replacement of the older generation
by the younger.
As abstractions, the Titans represent the
sources of law, order, justice, poetry, song,
and the arts. They are the sources of the
rivers and streams, the sun and moon, of
fire, of the fruits of the soil. I think of the
Titan, Pyperion, as he is identified in later
myth with Apollo, god of manyl beauty. He
is a tanned sun-god of golden curls, asurfer, I suppose. Themis I see as the Greek
statues represent her. My favorite Titan,
though, is lapetus. He is c:.ssociated in my
mind with help for the mortals. By Clymene (Bright One), one of the Oceanids,
he was the father of our sons who have become famous in English literature: Atlas,
Menoetioz, Prometheus, and Epimethues.
His sons are sometimes called Titans, too.
Promethel\§ got in trouble with Zeus because of his sympathy_ with mankind, to
he brought fire and the arts.6
whom
The time when Cronus ruled the Titans
was the Golden Age, according to Hesoid.
Surely, this is how it will be when the Titans
rule the new campus:
"The first age and the best was the
Golden Age, when Cronus was in power.
It was an age of perfection, of innocence and happiness, in which truth
and justice prevailed, not through law,
force, or power, but through man's natural goodness. Labor was not necessary
because the earth freely gave its wealth
and riches; warlike instruments did not
exist because peace was in the hearts of
men. It was always spring and men were
always young; fruit and flowers bloomed
without being planted; milk and wine
came from the rivers, and honey flowed
from the oak.'• 5

Q: LAST TERM THE TORCH REPORTED
ON LCC'S UNUSUAL POLICY OF APPOINTING STUDENTS TO STAFF COMMITTEES. HOW IS THIS WORKING OUT?
A: Great for those participating; however,
it has been reported that few student members are attending committee meetings
regularly.
Standing student-staff committees are
appointed by the College President in consultation with the Staff Association President and the Student Senate President. LCC,
maintains student-staff committees as poposed to the traditional faculty committees
at other campuses. The student-staff committees send their recommendations directly to the College President (though in some
areas they are authorized to act independently) who in turn reviews these recommendations with his Cabinet. From that
point, based on the recommendations of the
.
Cabinet, appropriate action is taken.
Upon Student Senate President.Leon Lindsay's nomination, I have appointed students
to full voting memberships on all the two
dozen Stand and Self Study committees.
At least one committee has 50% student
membership. A special time has been set
aside on Wednesdays when the committees
can meet without any of the members having
class conflicts.
As far ...a.s can be determined, this opportunity for students to help shape the·
destiny of their college is unprecedented
in the country. I hope student committee
members will not let this opportunity slip
away by default. Should you be interested
in serving on a student-staff committee,
contact President Lindsay or Activities
Coordinator Jack Carter at Extention 44.

Baths, beds bring blessin gs
HOWARD

SUE

"Oh, the joys of having your owri private
bathtubl" is the thought that surges through
my mind as the warm water is poured from
the kettles and buckets into the small
wooden barrel that washed up on the ocean
beach one day last summer. If only they
would use bubble bath, the kind that smells
like carnations. Then I would have it made.
Oh well, I suppose I should be thankful
for what I have and not-wish my life away.
'Most members of my species aren't as
lucky as I am. I count my blessings every
day and they number five. My five blessings
•come in five assorted sizes and colors
and are as different as night and day.
About the only think they have in common
is blue eyes, and even then one set is a
little off-green, but roughly speaking they
all have blue eyes.
I will be two years old right before
Easter. My actual birthday is a little
uncertain but saying before Easter is pretty
safe. I really don't miss having a regular
birthday. If I want to, I can have 365 of
them a year. That would be selfish, so I
don't press the issue. I am the youngest
member of my family; therefore, needless
to say I admit I am spoiled. I couldn't

see any reason to go against the wishes
of a majority so I easily give in to the
blue eyes.
Life can really be beautiful if that's
what you want it to be. I think life is
wonderful and each day a good one. My
day usually begins pretty early since around
here people rise at the crack of dawn.
It's a quick jaunt around the neighborhood
to see how things survived during the night
and if everyone is up on time to make it
to all the many places they have to go.
Mornings can be dull, if one let them be.

I am left with only myself to contend.
Not that I stay home and knit or read.
It's more fun to scavenger hunt, chase cats,
dogs, birds, cars, people, and all the
various unsundries that blow in the wind.
Most exciting are my scavenger hunts. I
can find shoes that never match, hats of
any color in the rainbow, holster sets
minus the guns, deer horns minus the
deer, pillows of all kinds, bones, clothes
that are left where they shouldn't be and
sometim,~s where they should be, and just
about anything you could think of. The only
thing you have to remember is to be sur~

like seeing their possessions galavanting
off down the street. It's fun though.
In the late afternoon, two of my family
come home and things aren't so dull. One
of them always brings a friend or two or
three or four home with him and they
proceed to devour everything edible in
the kitchen with my help. Then it's outside
to play until time for dinner. Evening is
my favorite time of the day. Everyone is
home for at least awhile and all together.
I can survey the house from my place in
front of the fireplace, which, by the way,
I pack wood in for. I let everyone think
it is something unique. The only reason
I do it though, is to get a fire built quicker.
The more I help the less time it takes
to get one started. So, I carry my share
of the load around here.
My bed is very sp·ecial to me. It was a
Christmas present last year and I don't
see how I ever got along without it before.
When I am wandering around the house, I
am told to get in my bed. That's not too
bad of a punishment. Everyone needs to
have someplace that is all his own. It
gives a sense of security and belonging.
I used to sleep with someone all the time.
But I got too big to have half of the bed
and pillow too so now I am put in the garage
to catch my shuteye. It's not as bad as it
sounds. Garages can be very entertaining
if one pays absolutely no attention to them.
Since we live near the ocean, some of my
tim9 is spent on the beach. That's how we
found my bathtub. The beach is about the
most interesting place in the whole wide
world. There are so many things to smell,
see, eat, look at, chase and poke to see
if it wiggles. What's really fun is to take
off on a dead run and see how many birds
you can catch in the air. The waves make
foam that flies and floats in the wind and
even though it doesn't taste very good,
it's challenging to try and trap. Although

I have never actually been timed when I

Two of my appendages are 12 inches long
and the other set is 17 inches from the
ground. I think something got shortchanged.
I have to say that I lead just an average
life, sleeping, eating, playing, and having
the run of the neighborhood. If I have only
one life to live, let me live it as a browneyed dog in a blue-eyed family. For me,
that's pretty close to where blessings
come from, heaven.

paragrap h

A person's life is like a book, going
back through the years, chapter after chapter, paragraph after paragraph, with only
occasionally a chapter standing out with the
excitement of a great novel, to be savored
over and over again, of the comedy, the passion, the saddness and the wonder of life
rolled all into one instant of time.
The dreams, aspirations and heartsick
feeling of defeat, when they crumble into
dust around one. The tragedy of loss of
first love. The enclosing peaceful warmth
of the last and real love, and then life
is over, seldom recorded, rarily mourned,
a jewel only for the few individuals that
have shared and lived it with the one who
is no longer there to savor it.
But still the books grow from birth to
death, all individual, all closed, all unread,
except by the individual participants.
No best sellers, these, for they are factual, and only a paragraph, now and then,
will come to life, so that it can be read
by others and make them wonder, perhaps,
make them smile or frown and sometim~s
cry.

Notify Admissions ii leaving
Errors in student numbers (soci al security numbers) and changes of address
were given as the main reason for mistakes on report cards . Students who move
during the term are asked to notify the Admissions office of the change in address.
This helps avoid confusion when grades are
sent out.
More important in the process used for

grading is the student number. LCC uses
the social security number of the students
for their student numbers. If a student
misprints his social security number on
a class card, he will probably receive a
grade other than his own, or possibly no _
grade at all. If for any reason, you received an extra grade or are mjssing one,
check with the Amissions office. --Kathy

a whole term's reading
under your belt
in only one week!

If you are an average stu<lent carrying
a standard srudy load, you have the capacity to
read- in just rme U'ak-every single textbook
for every single course in your curriculum.
What's more, you will fully understand and
remember what you read for a long, long time.
The way to this singular accomplishment is via Reading Dynamics-the educational breakthrough rhat enables people to
read thousands of words a minute zl'ithout
skipping or skimming; U'ith excellent comprehension, great enjoyment and remarkable
recall. Learning ro read dynamically is like
making the transition from a bicycle to a
Jaguar XKE.
Reading Dynamics really works. In
fact, it works so tl'el/ and with such consistent
success that every course is backed by The
Evelyn Wood Reading Dynamics lnstitute's
firm Performance Warranty to df least triple
_your reading e fficimc_y.
This is a minimum promise, for literally thousands of the lnsticute's graduates
have learned to read four to ten times faster .
They read an average novel in about an hour
-all the articles in TIME magazine in 25
minutes-textbooks at the rate of 1 5-20 pages a minute.
These people aren't "brains" or mental freaks. Many are individuals who once read as slowly as you-poking along at the national
average reading rat~ of 250-400 words per minute. So don't be em:

barrassed about your slow reading. Most of
your friends-even your parents and teachers
-can't read any faster.
Reading Dynamics offers you a permanent escape from the sluggish reading rut and
the negative effects it has on your grade average and free time.
Although learning to read dynamically
requires no special talent or aptitude, mastering this wonderful skill is a lot like learning
ro play a musical instrument. This means that
just acquiring the simple, basic techniques
won't turn you into a speed reading phenomenon overnight. You have to practice every day
-no great hangup since you can apply some
of_ this Reading Dynamics "homework''.··ro
your normal school or pleasure reading, ···.
Best. of a11, once you attain an·d .con- •. .
tinue to use your new reading skills, your •
speed gains are permanent. And if you lose
the habit of using this skill, you can always
come back to Reading Dynamics and take one
of their free refresher courses.
Reading Dynamics is the definite rapid
reading system in the world today. And the
most flexible. You can use it for all kinds of
reading-even detailed, complex materials like science, history and
economics texts-in one-third the time it takes you now.

Being at a loss, the Campus Planning
Committee is asking us for suggestions on
naming the new campus. You have your own
ideas, which have to be as good as any the
CPC has come up with since Oct. The student with the best idea for a theme or suggestion for building names will win an evening out on the town with his girl friend,
boyfriend, husband or wife as the guests
of two CPC members plus $15. Second
prize is a night out on the town withou·t
the m,Jney.
The committee still contends that a central theme should be maintained to pro-

vide unity in the different campus areas
and functions. A central theme, and like
wise, the names of specific buildings should
reflect the area and age of students served
by LCC. If you think buildings sould be
named for their uses, then put it down on
the following form.
You can name just a few buildings or
all of them, tieing them, of course, to your
main theme.
Names must be submitted to the Campus
Planning Committee by Feb. 9. Turn your
ideas in to th main office on any of the
three main campuses.--Jerry Foster

that the coast only gets white goodness

Anyone is m,Jre than welcome to come up

if you aren't interested in The Torch, come
around for some stimulating disortations on
religion, politics, sex, the Vietnam war,
super-poor newspaper, guys, girls, classes,
teachers, good newspapers and would-be
annuals. If you have any ideas, gripes,
complaints, comments or suggestions or
just plain need some place to go besides
the student lounge while skipping a class,
visit The Torch office. It will take you about
20 m:.nutes to get there and that leaves only

A student comes up to the desk to check
out a book. The card is removed from the
book pocket and he writes his name and student number on the card. The book is stamped with today's date by the person at the
desk who puts the card in the box on the
desk and hands the book to the student.
The student begins to leave but pauses,
and you can see the question in his eyes
even before he asks, "When is it due?"
This little drama happens often enough
that I think an explanation of our circulation
policy needs to be presented along with the
philosophy behind it. The answer most
easily given to the question concerning
a book is due is simply that there is no
definite due date during a term, but it must
be returned by the end of the term. Since
that is the only due date each term, the date
stamped on the book card and pocket is the
date the book is checked.
The request that you return books at the
end of the term is made for several
reasons. We need to have the books returned by that time so we can make them
available. to other students the following

Excerpt from the World Publishing Company Book, "Study Faster and Retain More."
Check up on yourself the next timi~ you
study. For all the time you spend on your
books, how much of it is really effective,
concentrated studying?
We'll take a look at the study environment you should have. If it's not the kind
of study environment you do have, you can
be sure that much of your tim,~ is being
wasted.
There are two kinds of environment-the external and the internal. First the external:
Study in a quiet room by yourself. NO
television, NO radio, and NO distracting
records. Actually, it's better to have a
slight, regular background noise than none
at all. A slight noise, such as normal household or street sounds, will m-ake·you raise
your whole level of concentration.

THE HARD PART about making good is
that you have to do it again every week; and
did you know that A GOO:> LISTEN.ER is
always popular and after a while, he learns
something.

-

There should be a good light, at lea
100-watts coming over your shoulder. l
it's in front of you the glare will tire you
eyes.
Use a straight chair; a kitchen chair
perfect. In an easy chair you'll start day
dreaming.
Hold your book about 14 inches from youJ
eyes and on a 45-degree angle from tb
table. (Your eyes will tire quickly if th
book is laid fiat, because then your eye
are closer to the bottom of the page tha
the top, and you'll be constantly changini
your focus down the page.)
The internal environment:
If you have any problems or if anything'
worrying you, get it off your chest befor
you start studying. For example, if you'r~
wondering whether so-and-so will go o
with you Saturday night, call her up an
find out!
•
If it's not the kind of problem you ca
take care of with a phone call (you migh1
be waiting for him to call you), a good tric
is to write down whatever is botherin
you. •Once it's down in black and white
you '11 usually be able to stop worrying abou
it. Besides, problems rarely look very ser
ious once they're written out.
Or if you have a headache or if you ' r

term and so we can clear our records.
Books not returned eventually will, in many
cases, have to be replaced, and that can be .
an expensive proposition. It is also extremely annoying to other students who come into
the library needing material to discover
that it was never returned and is not presently available. For those of you who have
books out at the end of the . term, we will
send letters reminding you that you have a
book out and requesting that you return it.
After the second letter, we turn the names of
the students who have not returned books
over to the Dean of Student.s and let him
handle the matter.
This, · then, is the bones of the "datedue" skeleton, but it is the meat thatforms
the most important aspect of our circulation policy. LCC is a rapidly growing
school, which means that there are an increasing number of students who want to use
out library facilities. As a result, we ask
that you return the book that you ·check
out as soon as you are done using it,
whether that be one day or the whole term.
The sooner you are able to bring it back,
the more opportunity other students will
have to use the same book. A library is
only as good as the use that is made of the
books and materials in it. The more these
books and materials can be used, the better
the library is able to achieve the purpose
for which it was created. That, in essence,
is why we ask that you return the books you
borrow from the library as soon as you
have finished with them.
If you discover that someone has checked
out a book that you need, it is library policy, in most cases, to write a letter to the
person and ask that he return it so that
we may fulfill your request. Also, we do
not have fines for not bringing a book back.
We believe that most of LCC' s students and
faculty members are capable of fulfilling
the responsibility of returning materials
without the threat of a fine.
In the final analysis, the only person who
is deprived when someone does not return
a·-ooolf71s -the •next person 'wM wisfiei:no
use· 'it. The next time· 'you do not return
a book when you are through using it, ask
yourself this question: How many others
could have used this book after I no longer
needed it and before I returned it?

COGBURN

South Eugene and the Springfield Freshly
Brewed Coffee closed out the first week of
intramural basketball gam,3s, with the most
exciting and closely contested battle of the
first round, Wednesday, Jan. 24. After
comi ng from behind in the third quarter
to tie the score at 28 all, the South Eugene
team outscored the FBC's by four points
in the final period to take hom2 the victors, 44 to 40.
After being down by two points after a
slow first quarter, nine to seven, the
FBC's, led by captain Gene Cogburn's ten
points, surged to 12 and 14 point leads
throughout the second quarter. Along with
Cogburn's 10, Mike Lamb added six and
Mike Dalaney four points, as the Coffee
outscored South 18 to seven in the second
quarter .. Quick buckets by South's Tom
Tennet and Terry Myers brought the margin
to 26 to 16 at the first half whistle in favor
of the FBC's.
The third quarter proved to be the fateful one for the FBC's as the right South
Eugene zone defense held them to a single
field goal. South's offenses m,;anwhile proved adequate, as the South shooters put 12
counters on the board to tie the score 28all. Don Mickelson accounted for mine than
half of the Axem9n points, as he pushed in
seven to lead the offensive drive.

Page 15, Feb. I, 1968, THE TORCH

South scored quickly to start the final
quarter, and then played deliberate ball
to squeeze out the victory at the foul line.
In the second half, South had an eight point
advantage over the FBC's at the charity
stripe.
Doug Coddington, whose ten first-half
points kept South in the gam9, ended the
evening as the top point producer for the
Axem':!n with 13.
The FBC's had three m,1n in double figures as Mike Lamb hit high honors with
13, and Cogburn and Mike Dalaney followed up with 10 apiece.

Tannler scores
25 in loss

Sheldon outscored North Eugene by 10
points in the first quarter and never looked
back from there as they went on to gain
a 54 to 31 first round victory over the Northm,;n Wednesday, Jan. 24. It was almost
strictly a one-man show in the point departm,;nt for Sheldon as Ken Tannler pumped
in 25 points to lead the Sheldon attack.
North Eugene had a disastrous first

Gross-led
Beavers
vvin by 3
Captain Don Gross went to the head of
his class, and took his Springfield Beaver
teammates along with him, as the Gross- ·
led Beavers made an unbelievable com,~back in the second half to defeat Thurston
66 to 63, in the top contest of the second
round of intramural basketball league play
at Springfield High School. Down by as m·1ch
as 15 points in the first half, the Beavers
made their com:back on the strength of
Gross' second-half points.
Thurston's high scoring offense, the league's best, started out as expected-fast.
They opened up an 11 point lead, 22 to 11,
by the first quarter break. Roger Poe and
Mike Fullerton each hit for 10 points in th~
first quarter. The Beaver defense lowered
the point output of Poe and Fullerton to
four apiece in the second quarter, and the
Beavers m:>ved slightly closer to the Colt
point total, 34 to 25, at the halftime break.
Poe cam,: back to score 14 points in
the final half, but it was way short of the
Gross total. Donnie ripped the nets for 16
points in the third quarter as the Beavers
moved from 10 to four points behind, at
49 to 45.
With Gross continuing his streak in the
fourth quarter, Beavers Dave Jordan, Alan
Gee and Tom Anderson all began to hit,
with the Beavers moving ahead in the point
total with less than three minutes left in
the game. With Fullerton out of the gam,3,
Poe couldn't increase his scoring pace to
m-atch the Springfield drive, and the Colts
went down in defeat, 66 to 63.
Poe, the league's top scorer ended the
night with 28 points, and the gam2's high
honors. Gross was second, and tops for
the Beavers· with his 25 for the evening's
activities. Fullerton pum1jed in 21 before
leaving the gam-a in foul trouble, for the
only other Colt in double figures. Tom
Anderson, the first half Beaver scoring
threat, finished with 15, and runner-up honors for the Beavers.

quarter as they were able to score only
six points, against 16 for Sheldon. Tannler
got nine of the Sheldon 16.
North outscored Sheldon 17 to 14 in the
s·econd period, as tl1e Highlander zone
held Tannler to a shigle field goal. Football quarterback Jeff Etchison led the second quarter North spurt with eight points.
Mike Pendleton followed with four counters
from the outside.
In the third quarter Tannler once again
found the range, as he hit for eight, and
the Irish were off and running, away from
the Northmen. North was off from the field
as the Irish outpointed them 14 to three.
Dave Nessens, Gary Mertz and Steve Hayes
each added buckets to Tannler's total to
give Sheldon the 44 to 26' spread at the end
of the third quarter.
The fourth quarter ended up more or less
a form1lity> as Sheldon gradually pulled
away for the victory. Tannler hit for six
and Nassens hit for four points, for Shledon's final ten counters.
Nassens, playing only in the second half,
ended up as Sheldon's second leading scorer with six. The remainder of the Sheldon
roster (six players) hit the scoring column
for point totals of less than six points.

North Eugene squeaks
by Bethe.I,
last quarter
North Eugene left the list of the winless
Monday night with acom,1-from-behind victory over Bethel, 47 to 44. Bethel leading
from the first quarter, lost its edge in the
fourth quarter, as the Bethel reserves
couldn't halt the Eugens surge.
Bethel, with a playing roster of 13 individuals, had edged out ahead 30 to 25 at
the end of three quarters. The North Eugene team out-scored Bethel 22 to 14 in
the final eight minutes to gain their first
victory.
North led through most of the first quarter as Laurie Quenelle took command of
the Nortli Eugene offense. Bethel however
pulled to within two at 14 to 12, at the end
of the first eight minutes of play.
It was then Bethel's turn to take the
scoring edge, as they pulled ahead 22 to 21
at the halftimt1 buzzer. Jim Whittier was
the big gun in the Bethel attack, as he
jumped in eight points.
The third quarter proved to be the best
one for the Bethel team, however, as they
outpointed North by six points to take a
30 to 25 advatn~ge into the final period._

John Barge proved to be the go-factor for
the Bethel offense as he shot for 12 points
in the final half.
Barge finished with a game's total of
16 to tie for high-point honors with North's
Gordy Kaufman. The only other player to
dent the scoring column for double figures
was North's Quenelle who finished with 11.

FBC's run out ol perk; SE wins

Springfield's Freshly Brewed Coffee ran
out of perk in the fourth quarter and the result was a share of the league lead for the
Sheldon intramural district team after two
full rounds of games·, Monday night, Jan.
29. The FBC's, who were ahead by two
points going into the fourth quarter, fell
victim to the Sheldon fast-break and went
down by a 62 to 48 final .score. Sheldon,
with two full squads of players, was too
much for the worn-out Coffee, who could
field only one substitute.
The game proved to be a close one right

Thurston
scores most
An 88 point-outburst against South Lane
in,.. their first gam,3 has pushed Thurston
to the top of the list in total team offense
for the first two rounds of intramural basketball league play. South Eugene, with
balanced and consistant play in their first
two games, is runner-up to the Colts in offense.
In the defensive department the Thurston
stars don't shine quite as brightly, as they
rank fourth. Co-leader Sheldon holds the top
defensive spot while winless Bethel, who is,
eighth in offense, ranks second in defense.
When ranking the teams on balance (offense and defense combined) Sheldon and
Thurston rank one-two in that order, followed by South Eugene, Beavers, Bethel,
FBC's, North Eugene, and South Lane.

up to the final quarter, with Sheldon leading
through almost the entire first half. Sheldon
lead by two, 16 to 14, at the end of the first
quarter, with Gary Mertz, Ken Tannler, and
Steve Hayes hitting over the Springfield
defense. Springfield's .offense proved almost to be a one-man affair in the first
quarter as captain Gene Cogburn accounted
for ten of the FBC's total of 16.
Sheldon had increased their lead to six,
29 to 23 at the halftim,~ break, before the
Coffee came back after the five minute
rest. Tannler with four and Dave Nassens with five points led the balanced second scoring in the second quarter.
A switch to a zone defense proved effective for the Coffee during t~e third quarter as the FBC's outscored the Irish 16 to
eight to gain the lead for the first tim:!. Gene
Cogburn _,.once again led the Coffee spurt
with another ten points. Davis and Rick
Foster did the back-up scoring for the
FBC.
In the fourth quarter the Irish fast break
struck for 25 points and the Coffee Grounds
were in the garbage. Muscular Rod Myrick
and Dave Nessens each went wild in the
final period. Myrick got eight points and
Nassens had nine to destroy the F BC hopes .
for a victory.
Gene Cogburn, with ten points in both the
first and third quarters, and Dave Nassens tied for the gam,~'s high point honors
with 20 points. Mike Davis backed up Cogburn in the scoring column with 15, while
Tannler with 13, Rod Myrick with 12, and
Steve with 10, all hit in double figures to
pace the. balanced Sheldon scoring attack.

South Eugene gained its share of the LCC
basketball league lead Monday night, with
a convincing 77 to 53 plastering over winless South Lane. The South Eugene team
used a 28 point fourth quarter to cinch the
victory, and their undefeated status at the
top of the league.
Ahead ·by 11 points, 50 to 39, at the end
of three -quarters, South Eugene seemed
in little danger of loosing, but high point
splurges by both Gary Brown (10) and
Tom Tennent (eight) put the gamn way out
of ·the reach of the South Lane squad.
The game started slowlv. with each team
h:dng plagued by ball handling errors and
poor shooting. South could muster only 12
points b•1! '"till h,31.1 an ,3dge, as the South
Lane club could only get eight. Terry Myers with four and Tom Tennent with five
points paced the Eugene scoring.
In the second quarter both teams opened
up offensively, as the hot shooting Axem,m
shot out anead 32 to 25, out-scoring South
Lane 20 to 17 in the second quarter. Tennent with six points, once again led the Eugene scoring parage. Nick Vanderford, with
11 points in that quarter kept the South Lane
club at least in the ball game. In the third
quarter the Eugene club could increase their
lead by only four points, as Loyd Kildel
and Terry Patterson began to hit for South
Lane. Tennent once again proved to be the
top gun for the Axem1~n as he hit for another six.
The steady scoring of Tennent was enough
to give him top scoring honors for the gam,:!,
as he finished with 26 points. Brown's

Three tied
for lead

With a startling 66 to 63 com,: -from
behind victory over Thurston, the Springfield Beavers have jumped to the favorite
role, as well as the league leadership, after
the first two rounds of intramural basketball play. The Beavers are not alone at
the top of the standings, however, as tµey
share it with two other squads with undefeated records, Sheldon and South Eugene. All
three clubs have postedtwo-winandno-loss
records as of Jan. 31.
Technically, no team in the eight-team
league is in any worse position than third
place, as the group of leaders are followed
by Thurston and North Eugene tied for second, while three others bring up the
rear, or third place, with winless records.
Things were certain to have changed last
night when co-leaders South Eugene and
Sheldon tangled. Accounts of that gam,:, as

competitor must compute their handicap
before the first m,3et. Here are the four
steps in computing a handicap:
(1) First bowl nine lines
(2) Determine the average of the nine
lines bowled
(3) Subtract this average from 190, getting a number "x"
(4) Take two-thirds of the "x"
This final number is your handicap.
