Senate resolves to support Vietnam troops
A resolution supporting "our
fighting troops in Vietnam," was
approved without opposition at the
Nov. 6, meeting of the LCC Student Senate.
Senator John Hill, a sophmore in electronics, who proposed the resolution supporting
the troops in Vietnam, said it
was offered to counteract antiwar publicity be in g generated
by other student groups at other
schools.
The resolution read:
Whereas: There is much dissention against the war in Vietnam which is demoralizing to
our fighting men there.
Whereas: There has been a lack
of support shown to American
Armed Force~. especially by
university and college students.
Whereas: There is a need to
promote a greater feeling of
nationalism by the up until now
silent majority.
Be it resolved that we, the A.S.B.
Senate, hereby express our support of our fighting troops in
Vietnam.
Student body President Dave
Spriggs signed the resolution, and
sent telegrams containing the
resolution to President Nixon,
Governor McCall, Senator Hatfield, Senator Packwood, and
Congressman John Dellenback.
Spriggs also issued a challenge
to the student body presidents of
the Unive rsit.y of Oregon and Oregon State University to "match
the resolution passed at Lane with
a declared show of support for
our armed forces in Vietnam."
0th er major business <11scussed at the meeting included:
student body elections, bus service to campus, ~U room space,
Miss Eugene Cont~st, and the
chartering of five clubs.
Jack Whisenhunt, First Vice
President, reported that Student
Body elections would be held
Monday Nov.IO, between8:00a.m.
and 9:00 p.m. He also discussed
how the elections would be run
and how the ballots would be
counted.
Carroll Noe 1, Second Vice
' President, reported that city bus
service to the campus might be

ended next week and that the only
hope of keeping the bus service
is if th e board allots $3,500,
which would keep the bus service
in operation the rest of the year.
He . stated that there are only
approximately 68 riding the bus
daily and it would take about 150
riding the bus daily to make a
profit.
$100.00 was approved by the
Senate to sponsor an LCC student in the Miss Eugene Contest.

The girl chosen to represent LCC
in the Miss Eugene contest will
be different from Miss LCC, because if the Lane representative
should w in the title of Miss
Eugene she would not have time to
fulfil her duties as Miss LCC.
The five clubs chartered were
the Archery Club, Chess Club,
ESP Club, LCC Water Ski Club,
and the Americans for a Peaceful World.

The Student
Speaks
", 7ua

; had a long talk with a bl.ack
student last night. Most of what
he said made a lot of sense to
me. Some things didn't. But one
thing hit home--the fact that there
is still so much prejudice against
blacks that it is hard for them to
communicate with whites.
If you stap and think about it,
blacks walk around in an atmosphere of almost CONSTANT HOSTILITY! (They have no way of'
knowing a white's attitude and
past records indicate that whites
generally ARE hostile).
So you can understand why
blacks don't want to communicate, (and get put down or
slapped down). I think we should
remember this context when
dealing with a black. He's
naturally defensive. You can't
blame him for being defensive-the white man put him in that
position.
So I think the white man has
to take the initiative in saying,
"Look man, I'm listening to you.
I may not agree with everything you say, but I AM listening and I see your point of view."
From then on the discussion
can be on the ~UES, not on
attitudes. The white can step
forward at appropriate times and
show his understanding of the
black man's problems and encourage him to find solutions
in his own way.
I don't mean riots or power
politics either, because force
and coercion ar.e n't solutions to
anything. All that happens is
that problems change hands.
You don't solve problems
by winning political power--you
solve problems by identifying
the basic root of the trouble
and suggesting methods for eliminating. this root.
Problems of jobs, education
and health are common to all
people- born into the lower economic strata of society. The
one and only black problem that
is NOT common to other groups
is WHITE RACISM.
White racism is the basic root
of black problems that both blacks
and whites must work to overcome--each person of each group
in his own way. Then the other
problems will cease to be BLACK
problems. The blacks have been
identifying white racism for hundreds of years in every way
possible. The Koerner report on
riots made it officially the root
problem. For their own selfinterest, whites must eliminate
white racism in the quickest way
possible.
If a person is dedicated to the
concept of "liberty and justice
for all", he cannot tolerate the
hypocrisy of a society which
judges an individual's worth on
the basis of color.
Most whites will find they have
to consciouslywithhold judgment.
of the personality, ability and
attitude of a black until after they
have talked to him. Because of
PREVENTION AND ELIMINATION of expression of the black
point of view, most whites DO
have pre-conceived notions about
blacks. So they have to hold open
their judgment of any black until
after he has spoken or acted. Then
the y can judge his ideas and
actions.
In essence, racism is collectivism. It is seeing a man, not
as an individual with his own good
and bad qualities, but as the
symbol of a group and their
accumulated characteristics.
But each one of us is an
individual with a mind of his own,
not a collection of the minds of
his ancestors. So you judge the
content of any man's mind by

his personal expressions--notby
the expressions of the "group"
to which he appears to belong.
Unforunately, most people have
to make a very CONSCIOUS effort
to do this--to listen to a man's
ideas and ignore his color(or·
clothes or hair style, etc.). But
the only thing you have a right
to expect in any man with whom
you chose to deal is rationality-nothing else.
.
If you can reason with him,
you can work with him for your
mutual benefits. If you c;m't
reason with him--forget it!
There's no other way to communicate successfully.
Lately, I've been trying to
reason with some of the black
students at Lane. I get a lot
of hostility, but I expect it.
Then, sometimes I find that
I have a few goals in common
with some of the blacks. 0 n e
of these is the idea of a black
cultural exchange.
I think it's a good idea. I'm
very interested in black history.
The Black Student Union at Lane
has indicated that educating
whites in black culture is one
of their aims. The college has
shown their interest in this goal
by supplying a b 1a c k studies
program and purchasing a large
amount of black authors' books.
It seems to me that this is one
area where we could mutually cooperate---y et gain individual
benefits.
A black cu 1tu r al exchange
would enable the black to promote.
understanding of their culture. It
would enable the whites to gain
new contacts and cultural enrichment. It would enable the administration t o relate t o t he
interE!st oJ both groups.
It's a good idea .... l'm glad the
BSU suggested it! Now we have a
chance to do something re a 11 y
great on this campus .... We can
cooperate ...•.. !

The APW groups gathered Friday o n th e w est side of t he
Center building and defined their
aims and goals to the nearly 75
students gathered to listen to
the newly recognized organization.
Mike Cowan, President of APW
and a war veteran, spoke about
seeing death on the battlefields
of American Armed Forces.
Pat Delaney, a political science
student, spoke on the "domino ·
theory", the theory that if one
Asian country comes u n de r the
control of Communism, all other
adjacent countries would eventually come under the Commuists' control.
Art Tegger, an advisor to APW
and an English teacher at LCC
said "the hottest place in hell is
reserved for those who, in a time
of moral crisis chose to remain
uncommitted". Mr. Favier made
reference to a quote from John
F. Kennedy; '' Genuine peace must
be the product of -many nations,
the sum of many acts. It must be
dynamic, not static, changing to
meet the challenge of each new
generation, for peace is a process, a way of solving problems".

OSU 'Barome ter'

Haunts gather

$4,000
A check for $4,000,(representing the proceeds from the
Eugene are a' s 8th Annual Haunted House,) will soon be presented
to the Boys and Girls AidSociety
of Oregon.
This year over 72 hundred
adults and children enjoyed the
scary scenes within the Haunted
House, which is open annually
October 28 through 31.
The Haunted House Chairman,
Ken Wollenweber, said this
year's Haunted House was
particularly successful.
"Most notable/' he said, "was
the almost t.o ta llack of vandalism, incidents of disorderly conduct and line-cutting, which permitted more people to enjoy the
House in the spirit of wholesome,
old-fashioned Halloween fun, for
which it was designed. The layout
of this house was more conducive
to our purposes, and the addition
of new and improved 'monsters'
greatly increased the quality of
the Haunted House/' "Our donors
seem more generous each year,"
he added, "which enables us to
oper~te almost without expense.
We are always grateful for the
exceptional support we get from
the news media--we credit them
with much of our success."
Although it is nearly a year
until Halloween 1970, plans are
already being made for the 9th
Annual Haunted House.

In a telephone interview with
The Torch office, Allen stated
that "the straw that broke the
camel's back" occurred early
last Wednesday when the newspaper protested the increasing
pressure put upon the editors and
staff of The Barometer by the
Student Senate. Allen indicated
that, contrary to earlier reports,
the student newspaper did not delete most of its usual printed copy
because of differences of opinion
about the forthcoming Vietnam
Moratorium on Nov. 13 and 14,
but because of the culmination of
events stemming from increased
censorship and monetary allocation withdrawal. The Student
Senate appropriates 33% of the
newspaper's funds.
Roy Young, president of OSU;
Harold Britton, s tu dent bo1y
president; and Fred Zwahlem,
c ha i rm a n of the publications
committee which supervises all
campus publications, agreed Friday to allow the editors and staff
of The Barometer to retain control over the newspaper and its
policies.
The Barometer went back into
full production Friday with its
staff once again handling OSU's
journalism machinery.

Senate to sponsor

Miss Eugene
Candidate
The Student Senate has allocated $100 to a Sponsorship Contest designed to select a girl to
represent LCC in the Miss
Eugene Pageant of 1970. The
$100 will cover thecostofagirl's
$IO entry fee and ball gown for
the Pageant. Howev~r, all contestants in the Sponsorship Contest will still be eligible to com pete in the Miss Eugene Contest by paying the entry fee themselves.
Applications for the Sponsorship Contest must be picked up
before Dec. 3 from Geri Connors
in the Senate Office in the LRC.
Girls who wish to enter the
Pageant directly by paying their
own entry fee may pick up applications from the Study Skills
Office (4th floor, LRC). The entry fee entitles the contestant to:
1. a Mini-Charm Course; 2. a
discount of cosmetics; 3. professional instruction in make-up.
This year the Miss Eugene
Pageant sponsored by the Eugene
Jaycees is bigger than ever. The
prizes going to the winner are
comparable to thelMiss ?regon
contest. Miss eugene will receive more than $1000 in educational scholarships, will have
the loan of a new Oldsmobile convertible for six to seven months,
and will be furnished with 1000
gallons of gasoline. More than
$loo worth of gilt certificates will
be given by local merchants and
there will be additional prizes for
runners-up.
If there is a sufficient number
of girls interested in the Sponsorship Contest and the Miss
Eugene Pageant, the Miss Eugene
Executive Committee and Miss
Eugene 1969, Linda Bussell, will
host a reception for the prospective candidates, their parents
and other interested persons here
at LCC in December.
The closing date for entries in
the Pageant is Friday, Jan. 2.
Girls must be single, between the
ages of 18 to 28, and either residents or students in the area west
of Interstate 5 within Lane
County.

Jerstad says climbing
From the top of Mt. Everest
to Lane Community College Dr.
Luther Jerstad carries an enthusiasm and a "Buddhist" philosophy about life with him.
Jerstad visit~d th~ College last
week and presented two talks on
his trip up Mt. Ever.est. He was
later interviewed by Don ,Riggs,
physical education instructor and
Bud Procter, Adult Education DepHtment, both of LCC.
Jerstad said the climbers almost be<:0.110 "Buddhists in outlo".>k" as they "put pain out of
their mind." The ability to survive "pain, cold, misery, fear,
panic and ·'.>Oredom... " is simply
a state of mind, he said. "I'm
doing something I enjoy, so I
can deal with a great deal of misery." A climber can talk himself into shock, he said, by simply
realizing reality and rationalizing the situations that come up.
"You have to relax ... you can't
fight it... you can't physically
overcome it, only mentally."
Jerstad said he has been covered
by avalanches and has survived
only because of his ability to
relax mentally. He gave the example of a dog covered by snow ...
"he will curl up and use the snow
as an insulator to keep warm ...
where we would run around and
stamp our feet and beat our hands
together ...if you can relax and
put up with it you will probably
survive."
One of the climbers on the trip
up Mt. Everest with Jerstad,
Barry Bishoff, suffered severe
frostbite in his feet, Jerstad said,
and by self hypnosis could shut
the pain out of his mind. '' They
are there because they enjoy it,"
he said. '' They know these things
will happen."
In answer to the question of
what type of training a climber
participates in before a major
climb Jerstad said ''The only way
to get in shape for climbing is
by climbing. Most of us had been
climbing for IO years or more •••

Bus service
to

end

The present city bus service
from Eugene to LCC may be terminated on Nov. 14 due to lack of
use.
To break even on the cost of
operating the bus, at least _168
students must ride the bus daily.
To date only an average of 75
students per day have used the
service.
The bus service was originally
planned for one month on a trial
basis. The Student Senate donated $500 toward the cost of the
month's operation, and it w as
hoped that an additional $500
would be paid by the riders.
The deadline for the month's
trial was Nov. 7, but the President's Cabinet donated an additional $185 to keep the service in
operation for another week.
If the Board could raise $3,500
the bus service could continue
through the remainder of the
year, said Bill C,?x, De~ ?f
College Services. Even 1 f 1 t
doesn't break even, it is a real
service to the College, " he
stated. "There are always emergencies when anyone might need
the bus. It might even be cheaper
in the long run to ride the bus."
But unless more students make
use of the bus service, or unless
money can be raised in other
ways to finance its ope ration, the
service will end.

and the climb to the base camp
also gets you warmed up as it is
over hills and down into valleys."
Muscle building is not part of the
climbers training, he said, as
"bulk will not do any good. Some
rock climbing needs the stronger
and larger muscles ...but climbers learn to utilize the proper
muscles for the proper job... the
rest of the muscles are relaxed
while only the right ones are
working." The climber is not
racing, he said, but is "going very
slow. That is why it is out of
the realm of athletics in many
ways. If you run you will !ace
deatn -- if you race you will get
killed."

IS

To become accustomed to the
altitude is the most strenous
part of climbing, Jerstad said.
"It is a purely psychological
thing -- there is no way that a
man who can't live at high altitudes can learn to put up with
it." Persons that can't quickly
adjust to the change in altitude
will soon be ''near death," he
said. "You have to be able to
survive and get out and work all
day, too."
When asked for advice for other
climbers, Jerstad stressed the
importance of"knowwhat you are
doing." He said he has seen
many people preparing to climb
with inefficient equipment and in-

'mental'
efficient knowledge of how to
climb at all. "Go to a club or
school and learn safety rules,"
he said. ''The climber must enjoy climbing. It is not a challenge
or race -- no competition. It's
only me -- I'm doing this." After
a climb, Jerstad said, the important point in his mind is that '' it
has done something for me -I have come through that set of
experiences. If I learn --great.
If I enjoyed it - - fine. It is
nothing tangible, and it is the use less, nonpragmatic things in life
that are important."

DR LUTHER JERSTAD visited the LCC campus last week to
show a film of his climb up Mt. Everest.

Apathy and Reform Party rapped
In an informal appearance at
last Tuesday's session of the
RAP (LCC's weekly discussion
group), Dave Spriggs, president
of the ASB said that "although
the Reform Party was organized
because of personality conflicts," it inspired him and others
to ''get going." Spriggs said he
wanted to "give them credit" for
the renewed activity in the Student
Senate.
Sandi Curtis, Language Arts
senator, said ''The Reform Party
acted as a reactionary group
causing friction within the Senate
to get things moving." She said
she felt they helped to awaken the
student body. "There are more
people running for office this year
than ever before," he said.
Spriggs pointed out that honesty
in discussing one's views helps
in reaching a state of mutual cooperation. "Everyone knows
where I stand," he said, "so it's
easier to talk.''
The primary subject of the RAP
which generated the discussion of
the Reform Party was ''Apathy.''
Art Tegger , English instructor
and sponsor of the RAP, asked
the group how they would handle
the teacher's problem of a student who never responds. "What

Play rights

Winter registration dates set

withdrawn

Pre-Registration:

Plans for the opening production of this year's drama season at LCC have been changed.
"Next" and "The Hundred and
First," two contemporary
satires, were scheduled to open
Nov. 13. Due to its popularity,
however, the production rights to
''Next" have been withdrawn so
that the play may go on tour.
Director Norman Delue has selected an alternate play, and
operiing night is scheduled for
Dec. 2.
"Comings and Goings," wnich
will replace "Next," is described
as an actor's exercise. The
script consists of lists of words
which are subject to various interpretations. One such list is
a waitress' food order for a
truck driver, which could be interpreted as simplified communication between two lovers.
In an other portion of the play,
the a c tors portray electrical
plugs.
"The Hundred and First" is
a rollicking farce about the New
York City welfare system. Each
year at Christmas the New York
Times publishes a list of the 100
neediest cases in New York City.
This play concerns the 101st family, that just missed making the
list. What results is an exciting
humorous approach to succeeding
without really trying.
Both plays have beens in g 1e d
out for their contemporary relevance.

Clothes needed

Women's and children's clothing is needed for ADC families.
Donated clothing should be clean
and in wearable condition, and
size marking would be helpful.
Women's clothing of size 16 and

Washington, D.C. (UPl)--Acommittee of the National Research
Council in Washington says a reduction of the world's population
is necessary if man is to survive
long as a species. The solution
to the population problem is even
more urgent than has been indicated, as the Council's figures
indicate the present world population of 3.5 billion is already too
great to keep the planet livable.

Titans win Regional
Rexburg, Idaho --Lane Community College, with Captain Jan
McNeale leading the way, avenged
last week's loss to Mt. Hood in
the Oregon State Cross Country
Championships by winning the
Far We st Regional Championships at Rex College in Rexbu_rg, Idaho, Saturday.
The Titans placed f o u r men
in the top· ten to finish with 32
points. Mt. Hood, a 38-39 victor
over LCC in the Oregon State
Championships, was second with
35 points. Host Rex College was
third with 55 points.
McNeale covered the four mile
course in a best ever time of
20:40, ahead of second place finisher Dave Boggan of Mt. Hood,
who finished a distant 1 1/2
minutes behind Jan in 21:10.5.
Lane capitalized in depth in.
winning the team title with John
McCray finishing fourth, Don
Herman fifth, and Hugh Helickson

s

eighth. Gaylan Littlejohn was
thirteenth.
"It was a real team effort,"
said Titan coach Al Tarpenning.
''The kids knew they were as
good if not better than Mt. Hood.
They wanted this in the worst way
after that close race last week."
McNeale, who won his seventh
successive race of the season and
was unbeaten, led most of the way.
About a mile out he took off and '.
ran by himself, leaving everyone
else far, far behind.
The victory gives the Titans a
berth in the National Junior
College Championships next Saturday at Pittsburgh.
The team's participation inthe
Pittsburgh meet will depend on
finances. No money has been budgeted by the colley for such a trip
and no tax monies will be utilized
for it. Donations from interested
parties will be accepted, and students may use their own funds.

been chosen athlete of the week
by The Torch Sports staff.
The honor has been earned by
the school's g re at distant runner for the second time in the
last three weeks.
McNeal, who has gone un- •
defeated thus far this year in

seven me e ts, has set meet records and attracts more crowds
everywhere he goes.
He currently 1e d his Titan

Basketball I coach optimistic
about season prospech
Basketball coach Mel Krause
expects about 50 basketball hopefuls to report for practice this
coming Monday, Nov. 10. The
Titan's first game is December 13
against Northwest Christian College of Eugene.
This year's schedule has been
increased by four games. The
Titans will play 24 contests, 17
league and 7 non-league games.
Coach Krause says non-league
competition will be tougher, as
Linfield, Willamette, Southern
Oregon College and Oregon College of Education J. V. 'shave been
added to the schedule.
Three of last year's f o u r leading scorers are gone. Dave Naessens, the Titan's leading scorer
last year and a second team conference selection, is gone, as are
John Barge and Roger Bennett.
Barege and Bennett averaged in
double figures during the year,
while Naessens averaged 15. 8
points per game.

sophomore Rob Barnes, the
team's second leading scorer last
year with 12. 7. Barnes played at
Willamette High.
The Titans tied for third in the
league last season with Southwestern Oregon Community College. Mt. Hood finished first,
and Blue Mountain was second.
This year, says coacn 1\.rause,
the team should be better at rebounding off the boards (a weakness of last year's team) because
of improved height. Last year's
team averaged about 6'0". This
year it could average 6'2". In
spite of the size increase, Krause
says, "We'll be more inexperienced this year because a large
portion of the team will be freshmen."
The Titans will hold practice
sessions once a day prior to the
first game.

BASKETBALL HOME GAMES

Soccer team wins again
In a game marred by several
injuries and fights, the Titan soccer team continued at its undefeated pace as they nipped Mt.
Hood Community College 5-3.
The match was held Friday at
Lane. During the week, the soccer field was moved to a new location, and both teams were able
to play on a f1irly drJ f.h~ld f'or a
r:h an6e.

Neither team could mount any
serious th re at s until Garbis
Kataroyan scored for LCC midway through the first half. The
next scoring did not come until
only a few miriutes before halftime, when both teams scored
two goals in rapid succession.
Lane scored first as Enrique
Martinez and Kataroyan scored.
Martinez' goal was scored off a
penalty kick.
Mt. Hood then took advantage
of Lane's defensive lapses and
scored twice. They trailed 3-2 .

In the second half, the name of
the game was defense. Mt .
Hood could not muster offensive
threats against Lane's ferocious
defense, led by fullback Tom
Fountain. When either team did
manage to break through the defense, both .goalies were ready
as they continually came up with
excellent saves.
Midway th rough the second
half, darkness began to make the
goalie's work even harder. Lane
halfback Gaazar Estefanian was
able to score on a corner kick.
With only ten seconds left in the .
game, Mt. Hood scored their
final goal on a shot which was
partially screened from Lane
goalie Abdullah Sedairi.
