Proposed fall term concerts include two higJl school assemblies, and an evening Christmas concert at Lane. By DAVE MERWIN Of The Torch Five new senators were appointed and State Ballot Measure #7 was discussed in the regular senate session Thursday. The new freshman senators are: Mary Kay McKenzie, representing Performing Arts; Ray Smith, Fine Arts; Rod Evers, Mechanics; and lrine Cox, LPN (Licensed Practical Nursing). A new sophomore senator is Norma Wetzell of Performing Arts. The Senate discussed the effects on LCC of the proposed property tax limitation (Measure #7). The following points were considered: 1. Under #7, LCC would lose one and a half million dollars next year ... 2. Two of three dollars would be saved by industry, but not by the small, individual tax payer ... 3. Lane might have to restrict enrollment, thus destroying its open door policy, if #'l is passed ... 4. Some counselors and administrators might have to be eliminated to maintain finances to support the present number of students ... LCC Students Crash In Fog Ne_a r Campus Heavy fog early Friday morning shrouded this collision of two LCC students enroute to classes on 30th i-..venue, just West of the campus East entrance" This 1962 Karm enghia, driven by James Fredrickson, was West bound and attempting a U- turn when struck broad side by an East bound car dri ven by Ronald Harr is. Niether student was hurt seriously, though Fredrickson, aliberal arts major, had se veral cuts about his head. Both were alone. Harris. an air tech. major, was travf'ling 45 or 50 mph and skidded about 60 feet, Police said. Fredrickson told Oregon State Police that several people were making these turns. South bound Interstate 5 traffic can not use the collPge's E:::ist entrance. Students and staff who travel Interstate 5 from the North , and who use the East campus parking lots must either drive up 30th J.~venue to the West entrance and then all the way around campus to the East 1ots, or they may simply U-turn on 30th Avenue and proceed through the campus East entrance.

Political openness is good. It displays awareness and concern of what is happening to others, be they Vietnamese or somebody across town. We are- assured political activities will increase at Lane because of our open door to thought and learning, and because of the caring for people and governmental improvement that runs through so much of our student body.

An ear deafening bunch hideously called "The Naked Raisin'' somehow managed to create the most successful LCC function in the UlSt two years .• • .The ~aisin, possibly accustomed fo high school perform~ ces-, played uncomfortably loud. And _they played lengthy selections, and their own arrangements, too, I think, and even seemed to lack a good hard, steady beat at times. But they he_ld the crowd. The entire evening seemed a success--a real switch for LCC. Perhaps we ought to congratulate social chairman Pat Clifton. But the Raisin we are not sure about! The Naked Raisin now has the dubious distinction of being the first band to perform on Lane's new campus. And judging by the turn-out, it appears the student body desires -------~ dances. So keep the faith, Baby, better bands and better dances - - - - are coming. • Most of us have at one time or another encountered the socalled "traffic" problem. This in reality, is minor when compared to the bedlam found every morning in the camp'.ls parking lots. True it is annoying to poke along, the last in a line of cars that all se~m to be waiting for the second coming of Christ, but its even more irritating to finally make your way onto campus and find yourself in the middle of mass chaos. LCC has roughly 4100 students of whom not more than 3,000 are on campus at any one timci .. The parking lots have eno~gh spaces to accomodate 2700 cars; so why the confusion? Mamly this is a self-inflic ted situation brought on by an apparent lack of effort on the part of drivers trying to find a place to kenn~l their vehicle. It seems that people would rather double-park than use the gravel lots; granted, it is a little inconvenient to have to walk a little farther to class, but then again, its a little inconvenient just getting out of bed in the morning. • Because of the state of incompletion of the grounds and access roads, permanent traffic signs haven't been installed and the curos haven't been painted. The traffic control officer, Wally Rowland, has b~en very merciful in giving tickets because of this state of disrepair yet many people use it as an excuse to make their own rules and drive their cars as they see fit. Lets just hope that their judgement is better on the highway than it is on campus. It was obviour, w~,en we registered, that things wouldn't be .,.oing as smoothly as they could, and, we accepted this fate. Things have improved and will continue to if we all (excuse the over-used cliche') do our part. JQB # 144 SALESMAN ...

I Ce Physical health plus mental and emotional health equal happiness. Exercise enhances physical health which in turn promotes mental and emotional well-being. Mental and emotional well-being also are ingredients of happiness. Happiness contributes to good physical, mental and emotional health. Happy people make for healthy communities, and the·refore, nations. Happy nations don't need war. Exercise prevents war. Ridiculous? Are these generalizations so far off th~t they can't be verjfied? Of course. Unfortunately the United Nations doesn't inelude this sociological hypothesis on its agenda. So let's confine it to students attending LCC. Look around you. Notice the rapport between P.E. instructors and their student~. Smiles, all smiles. P.E. classes are compulsory. Even spastics have to take them.

There is just one requirem,~nt. You have to be a "people". The counselors at Lane may be able to help you even if you are not, but it would make things easier for everyone of you are. Why? According to L S. Hakanson, dean of students, "Lane's counselors are people-oriented. I like to refer to them as people counselors because they are very much interested in people, whether the concern is of a vocational, educational, social or personal nature." Hakanson, who is credited with being the architect for LCC's ela-· borate system of counseling, answered some major questions about the program along with Dr. Ken Hills, director of counseling, KEN HILLS BUD HAKANSON -· • - - - • . It has been said repeatedly by college ad,ministrat~rs in Oreg~n that LCC s counseling system is on~ of the best in the enti:e Umted States among c_ommumty ~olleges. It has been_ said by re~idents of t~e commumty that LC_C s program is large .and expensive. _One_ of the mam reasons for this is because Lane operates under the "open door" policy. ' 'Under this policy we have to everyone as a student, accept whether or not they are prepared for the academic world," said Hakanson. '' Many times in this situation their goals are undefined, even to themselves." One of the first requirements upon entering Lane is to sit down with a counselor in a '' studentcounselor" interview. Here the student can focus on his goals, his problems, and get help. How are counselors selected? "We first hire a person as a counselor, then they work into other areas according to interests and abilities,,, said Hills. Examples of the "speciality" counselors are: Frances Howard, financial aids; Buck Bailey, placement; Bill Wright, former dean Hakanson, of admissions; L dean of students. These are just a few. There is a counselor for every student at Lane. "One of the best things about • s. "Our job is to help the student get in his niche and make the appropriate decisions. Thesecond function of this interview is to provide a "friend" for each student," he said.
