back.

At the May 26 Primary election, LCC will be asking for
a 2.9 million tax base. This figure was determined at the fourth
meeting of the LCC budget committee April 8. At the meeting
one week before, the committee,
c o mp o s e d of citizens chosen
from the LCC school district
area, had asked for a 1.1 million,
or 15%, cut from the proposed
4.1 million tax base.
The 2.9 million tax base, if
passed, would constitute part of
the 7.1 million operating budget
for the 1970-71 school year. The
present tax base is 1.5 million
and was approved by voters in
May, 1968.
A tax base is a specified amount
of money coming directly from
the property tax. Once approved
by the community's taxpayers,
it is a guaranteed fund each
year for a ~~blic ag~n_cy.
The cut in the school budget
of almost $1.2 miliion, was achieved in three main segments:
1. cutting proposed expenditures
by $740,000. 2. adding some $230,
000 in new income, chiefly from
revised estimates of expected
State and Federal income. 3. Increasing basic tuition from $60 to
'
_$70 per term.
There was only a minor cut
in the instruction personnel budget, enabling Lane to take in all
of the expected 5,500 FTE students next school year,

The race is on!
The f 1a g has been dropped
and the wheels are spinning in
LCC's 1970 elections. Fourteen
petitions have been filed, and 14
candidates and their managers
are busily campaigning throughout the LCC campus. Several
other petitions were submitted
after the f i1 in g deadline, and
their status is now being considered.
Candidates for the office of
ASB President are Warren Coverdell and Bobby Edwards. Bruce
Nelson is the only candidate for
First Vice-President and Lorena

"FOCUS" to feature
Alumni Association
KLCC, LCC's FM radio station, will air its monthly "call-in" program, for members of the
commun ·ty to ask questions about
LCC, on Wednesday, April 15.
The program will feature Dean
of Students I.S.("Bud") Hakanson
and Leon Lindsay, an LCC alumnus and former Student Body
President in 1967-68. One of
the chief topics of discussion
will be the newly organized LCC
Alumni Association, which aims
for improved communication between LCC and the college district. Lindsay is involved in developing the off-campus group.
Moderator for the program will
be Mike Hopkinson, of the Mass
Communications De p art men t.
Student reporters from KL CC,
the LCC-TV news, and the Torch
will also participate in interviewing the guests.
The "call-in" show will be
presented from 7 to 9 p.m.,
Wednesday, April 15, at 90.3
megacycles on the FM dial. Anyone wishing to ask questions of
the guests is invited to telephone 747-4506.

KLCC to expand broadcast day
The LCC Board of Education
voted Wednesday, April 8, to provide a supplemental budget for
expanded operation of the LCC
radio station, KLCC, during the
remainder of the year.
The additional funds will enable KLCC to expand the broadcast day, with operation scheduled from 8 a.m. through midnight
Monday through Friday, and noon
through midnight Saturday and
Sunday.
The expanded program schedule will include offerings from
the Ntional Educational Radio
Network, and three hours of classics to be presented each weeknight from 9 to 12 p.m. In general, more public affairs, educational and cultural programs
will be offered. The new schedule will go into effect May 4.
The expanded broadcast day is
part of KLCC's effort to qualify
as an affiliate of the Corporation
for PQblic Broadcasting (CPB).

The station is also applying for
a one-time grant of up to $15,000
from CPB. Ten such grants will
be awarded to non-commercial
educational radio stations in the
nation which do not now meet
CPB criteria but which are attempting to do so. ·Announcement
of the awarus will be made June 1.
After becoming an affiliate of
the CPB, KLCC could qualify for
an annual grant, thus shifting the
bulk of financial support for the
station from the local taxpayer
to the federal government.
other plans for KLCC include
becoming an affiliate of the National Public Radio Network, the
nation's fifth live radio network.
Network broadcasts will begin ii)
the fall of 1970. Conversionofthe
station operation to stereo is
planned for the summer of 1970.
Stereophonic equipment was purchased over two years ago, and
stereophonic c on t r o I facilities
are now being completed.

VIEW FROM THE "U" ·7~ , ~ ~ ,
l(f 7o,ue 1t'"'411r U, o10,

Last Thursday a Catholic priest spoke at the University on
the topic "Imperialism in Latin America." When asked to
comment on the death of the
Western German Ambassador by
a left-wing insurgent group in
Guatemala which was refused
.$700,000. ransom money, he said
the kidnapping and murder were
"tools of change."
The night before, speaking at
the U on the subject "Revolutions
in Ecology," aself-identifiedSDS
speaker said that he thought the
most encouraging thing which
has happened in that field is "the
bombing of buildings around the
country ." Presumably he was als o talking about ' 'too 1s of
change."
In the last seven years there
have been three major political
assassinations in the Un it e d
States. Were they also "tools of
change"?
The priest that I quoted is a
university professor. He has a
Bachelor's degree in Theology
and a Master's degree in education from the University of
the State of New York; a Bachelor's degree in Philosophy from
Maryknoll College in Illinois
and a Master's degree in Lati~
American Affairs from Georgetown University. He is currently
docto~al candidate at USC and
1s runmng as a Democrat in the
U.S. Congressional primary of
District 30 in Los Angeles. He
is part of the movement for the
modernization of the Catholic
Church and is married to a former Maryknoll Sister. He is an
intellectual.
But he considers the murder
of an innocent national from another country a viable "tool of
change" and he defends his position on the grounds of "rationality" !
Implicit in his statement is the
idea that change through violence
can lead to the solution of the
problems of the people of Guatemala. This idea is also implied by the SDS member who
said that "in order to fight the
problems of ecology, you first
have to fight America." And perhaps Sirhan Sirhan thought that
he could solve the Mid-East problem by assassinating Robert Kennedy ..
What is the concept that ties
these three people together? What
is being implied ....being slipped
in .... being indoctrinated into the
thinking of university students
and the American public by professors who are the hub of intellectual thought in this country?
It is the idea that the way to solve
problems is with a club--not the
mind, that force works--but reason doesn't. It is the "Cavemar
Concept."

The mark of a civilized man is
rationality, but the Caveman believes that "Might makes right."
If change is necessaryacivilizec
man uses reason t_o ac?ieve i(
but the Caveman hits his fellow
man on the _head t_o get what he
wants. At issu~ is the_ fundamental alternati_ve of ~si~g reaso~ or force m ach1evmg soluhons to the problems of mankind. Yet the priest who is a
professor, who is a candidatf
for political office, who is ar.
intellectual, who is a Cavemar
says he considers the murde1
of an innocent citizen of anothe1
country a vi able ' 'tool oi
change."
Can he logically use reason tc
defend "non-reason"--ie: force~
Let's see how he does it.....
It is interesting to note thar
the priest also said, "AnyonE
who loves violence is crazy .. he'~
out of his mind!" He said i:
very emphatically. How, then.
does he reconcile such a state·
ment with his early apparen~
approval of the kidnap-murder?
Well, he explains that violenc(:>
has a "different meaning" tc,
the insurgents of Guatemala. He,
says the insurgents have initiate<i
a policy of "enforced taxation';·
by kidnapping and h?lding per•
sons for ransom. This, he says,
a "tool" in reaction to thl
VIOLENCE OF STARVA,
TION" ..... ! He has no qualms
about changing the meaning o1
the word "violence" to suit hif,
argument • Murder is NOT violent, he says. Poverty is •• !
And there you have it! Tht
Big Switch! Now he can easilJ
condemn "violence," which is
no longer violence, but depri•
vation. The "crazy man" who
loves violence, loves poverty. But
the man who blackmails and murde rs is on 1y "implementing
change"!
It seems to me that we, the
students of today, had better
take a long hard look at the
meaning behind some of the con~;~ts we are asked to accept by
mtellectual professors." It
should be understood, of course,
that any reasonable person would
be expected to use force in de!e~~e against any aggressor or
1mtiator of force. Force is always rationally justifyable i n
self-defense. It is important to
note that force used in selfdefense gains nothing for the
defender.(Certainly no $700,000
!) But if we accept the principle
of force as a "via~le" means
to regulate th~ affair~ of men,
then our world 1s certamly headed back to the era of the Caveman.
Perhaps we should Io o k deeper. We might_ask ourselves why
the Cavemen-mtellectuals of our

Praising LCC students f o r
their response to the "no-returndate policy" on library books,
Keith Harker, Director of the
LCC Learning Resource Center,
said the system has been a
"tremendous success."
The policy specifies that a student may withdraw a library book
simply by signing it out with the
understanding that the book be
returned immediately when he is
finished with it. The only designated "date due" is before the
end of the term in which the book
is borrowed.
The policy, according to Harker, is based on the assumption
that materials should be made
convenient and accessible for
library users.
When someone else needs a
borrowed book, a note is sent
to the borrower asking him to
return it as soon as possible, not because the library wants
the book, but because it is
needed by another student.
Because the responsibility is
placed on the student and his
obligation to his fellow students,
the no return-date plan has succeeded. Harker said, ''If you
treat a person like an adult,
he'll act like an adult."
The no-date-due polic y is not
perfect, however. There are problems. "But," Harker added,
"I want to emphasize that the
problem is the failure of the
student to return books when he
is finished with them. Ideally,
when the student finishes the
book, even in two or three days,
he should return it promptly."
However, at the end of winter
term, 1100 reminders were
mailed to students who still had
books checked out. "If the students would cooperate, there

Group conducts teaching appraisal survey
(Editor's note: The following information was obtained from interviews with LCC students who
participated in a small-group
project in an LCC social science
class. The questionnaires discussed have all been destroyed,
along with pertinent data other
than that referred to in the article. The group conducting the
survey has asked that their anonymity be respected.)
The perennial problem of teacher appraisal (whether and by
whom) was the recent focus of a
small-scale investigation at
LCC.
The purpose was to devise a
questionnaire, the results o 1
which would provide a student
• with unbiased data that would
guide h i m in deciding w hi c b
course or courses would be best
for him. It was not designed to
provide any judgment of a particular professor's personality
or to enable students to compare
instructors.
The problem of devising such

a survey questionaire was approached by afive-member group
of a winter term social science
class. The group was free to
choose its own project and to
carry it out in the direction it
felt to be worthwhile.
The project began with acknowledgment of the individual prejudices of the group, where reactions ranged from enthusiastically pre-project to "all right,
I'll do it bnt I don't want to."
One member said when asked,
"Yes, I dragged my feet most
of the time. I'd never heard of
any evaluation system like this
where such intangible factors as
personality and communication
methods had been combined successfully. But I learned a lot
in the process."
The group allowed much time
to study various survey forms,
read articles and judge data.
The questionaire finally compiled
was based on questions the members themselves devised plus
those obtained from various
forms, mainly one that had been
used at Northwest Christian

College in Eugene. Some supplementary information was used
from Oregon State University and
from faculties of the University
of Florida and Orange Coast
Junior College of Costa Mesa,
California.
Questions finally selected dealt
with evaluation of subject matter,
teaching methods, examinations,
grades, assignments and student
and teacher attitudes for various
courses. Additional information
asked for included course name,
student's approximate GPA, and
wheather the course was a regular or elective one.
Questionnaires were randomly
distributed to 114 students of the
full time enrollment (FTE) of
4542.
The carefully worded questions
gave the students an example of
the type of information that could
be the basis for compiling final
data. The recorded answers were
not c o mp il e d by the g r o up.
Rather, the results from only_
one question were tabulated and
studied: "If information from a

According to Mr. Bert Dotson,
LCC Director of Community College Services, LCC will have an
opportunity to participate in the
fund raising drive for Sacred
Heart Hospital additions and improvements.
Mr. Dotson stated that "Dr.
Wm. Jones, retired Dean of Administration at the U of 0, has
contacted the Staff regarding the
possibility, since LCC does not
usually participate in fund raising drives, with the exception of
the United Appeal. The need
seems to be for primarily longt e rm committments, such as
pledges of (for instance) $25 a
month for a period of two years
or more."
"Of course," Dotson continued, "we are rather unique
because part of our instructional
program of the college is at
Sacred Heart Hospital--Nursing
and Inhalation Therapy--so we
are closely related to making
sure this facility is excellent.
And if it is needing to expand,
we hope that they get the funds.
The question at this time is are
we willing to allow something like
this to be done? It was agreed
this is a worthwhile endeavor,
and Dr. William Jones will bring

were made available to you in
a handbook, would it help you
in ch_oosing your course?"
The students were asked to
answer YES, NO or NO OPINION.
They were also asked why they
answered as they did.
The following results were obtained:
YES

71%
NO

14.9
No opinion 16

114
100.0%
While the majority of students
polled did favor the compilation
of such information into a handbook, some questions were
raised.
Comments of the YES students
included:
''Such a handbook would give
added insight into courses and
would answer some of the questions left unanswered until the
first day of a new class."
"It would take out some of
the indecision of which classes
to choose."
"It would be possible to match
courses with students' personalities."
Of the NO opinion, some of
the answers were:
''I could learn more about
the course from friends."
"I don't want to be influenced by others."
"The course is more important than the instructor's method."
"Object to .this specific questionnaire because it's not adequate and not objective."
Final assessment by the group
showed that it felt that more information was needed and more

forms should be studied.
One member said, "I would
recommend doing a pilot study
in maybe one department, evaluate it, and then run a followup later on during the year while
the same students would still
be in school."
Another member felt that at
least a year's study should go
into such a project. He also
added that because of the difference in orientation of vocation-technical students and college transfer students, two different types of questionnaires
should probably be devised.
Another commented, "I didn't
think you could write by committee, but we did. We learned
about group processes through
trust and changes in leadership.
And it was a good learning process."
Other comments included:
"The project went over quite
well. The students enjoyed participating.''
"It was a tremendous amount
of work, most of which was
done outside of class.''
In the final analysis, one member said that they chose to do
this study out of their curiosity
with the idea that work has been
done that might some day help
the school if it ever did decide to
develop such a form.
And finally, the one most opposed at the beginning said, "I
believe that an unbiased evaluation can be worked out, but it
will take a lot of time and study."
At this time, there are no plans
by this group or any other known
group to further the study of such
an appraisal form.

Eymann, Daniel run for state off ices

Two people at LCC, James C.
Daniel and Richard 0. Eymann,
will be running for Oregon state
legislative offices in the May 26
primary.
Daniel, a former Lane student,
is presently an LCC Student Senate representative from the Oregon Community College Student
Association (OCCSA) of which he
is president. Daniel is also chairman of the Constitutional Committee and the Student Senate

Policy Committee.
He is running on the Republican ticket against incumbent Don
Husband for the position of state
Senator.
Daniel's main concern is the
task of involving youth in the
mainstream of the A me r i c an
political system. He said, "I view
student protests and activity outside the American political system as a form of symptom for
needed change. Youth must now

selected will attend the National
Junior College Association conference in Portland, Maine, this
August.
One candidate for the award is

Betty James, who teaches in the
Special Training program. She
was born on the Warm Springs
Indian Reservation in Oregon, but
moved to Torington, Wyoming,
where she graduated from high
school. Later she worked on the
Torington Telegram, which was
the beginning of her career in
journalism. Other papers for
which she worked include the
Daily Bulletin in Laramie, Wyoming; the United Press in Albuquerque, New Mexico; the Casper
Tribune, in Casper, Wyoming;
and , for six yea-r s, the Eugene
Register-Guard.
Mrs. James entered the field
of special training at LCC after
working for six years with problem students at South Eugene
High School and with the Upward
Bound program at the University
of Oregon. She studied business
and journalism at the B.A. level,
and last year received her
master's degree in Curriculum
and Supervision for the Disadvantaged.
Mrs. James has been in the
LCC Special Training program
for two years. Her special concern is the Manpower Development Training. Act (MDTA) program, in which three areas are
stressed: secretarial, stenography, and clerk-typist. "Any success that I might have had can
be credited to my students," she
said.
John Klobas is the Sociology
rep re s e n tat iv e in the Great
Teacher search. He was born
on a farm in Bend, Oregon, and
attended a country school for
eight years. He graduated from
high school in Bend in 1949, and
then spent four years as anelectronics technician in the Navy.
After being discharged, he studied electrical engineering and
biological and physical sciences
at OSU. He received his degree
in biologic al and physical sciences.
Klobas received a Woodrow
Wilson fellowship from the University of Oregon in sociology,
and received an M.A. in 1965.
In 1965 he also went to Belgrade,
Yugoslavia, for the second World
Population Conference, and spent
a- full year at the University of
Belgrade studying sociology.
In 1967 Klobas taught fulltime at
a local high school and parttime at LCC. In 1968 he started
teaching full-time at LCC in sociology. In response to the question of what he thought of LCC
he said, "I think it's a challenge
and a rewarding experience."
William Madill, Great Teacher
candi,date from Data Processing,
was born in 1948 in Coronado,
C a 1if o r n i a and went to high
school there. He attended Stanford University, where he graduated in 1969 in math. Last
summer he worked for Science
Research Associates, a division
of IBM. He started working at
LCC in September in the Data
Processing Department.
Madill plans to stay at LCC
for the forseeable future. His
wife, also a graduate of Stanford,
is an intern at the UofO teaching
program in elementary education.

candidate for the Great Teacher
award is Mary Merrill. Mrs.

"Crisis of Divorce"
draws SRO crowd
A standing-room-only crowd of
approximately 150 persons attended the first meeting Thursday, April 9, of the Spring Term
Familv Life Discussion series
on the "Crisis of Divorce."
Dr. Paul Bassford, a Springfield psychiatrist and part-time
psychiatric consultant for LCC,
told participants that the crisis
of divorce is seldom abrupt.
Instead, the crisis occurs when a
specific event brings out longstanding problems. In reality,
he said, many marriages are
dissolved long before the fact of
divorce.
In identifying the cause of
said third
divorce. Bassford
party relationships ''aren't really too important. They develop
because dissolution has already
occured. They are symptoms of
a dissolving marriage, not a
cause."
Bassford outlined some of the
realities of divorce, w.hich include: learning to live with loneliness and no one to fill dependency needs; dealing with feelings
of guilt, depression and grief;
accepting the new status in relation to children and friends;
maintaining and financing two
households; and working out legal
problems.
The discussion of problems of
divorce continues Thursday, April 16 at 7:30 p.m. in Apprenticeship 219. Joan Acker, assistant professor of sociology at the
University of Oregon, will speak

Disruption conviction reversed
The conviction of Peter Jensen a U n i v e rs it y of Oregon
graduate student, on a charge
of "conduct which intentionally
obstructs or disrupts the educational process" was overturned
Wednesday night by the U of
O's Student Conduct Committee.
Jensen had appealed his conviction to the committee after
the university's Student Court
had sentenced him to one year
of disciplinary probation for his
alleged participation in a Feb. 3
demonstration against Wey e rhaeuser Co. recruiters on campus.
Jensen and his representative,
student defender Robert Bay,
based the appeal on legal arguments rather than the facts of
the case.
The defense asserted --- and
the conduct committee agreed
---that the disruption of recruiting activities did not fall under
the definition of disruption of
the "educational process" as it
has been interpreted in the past
by the conduct committee.
The defense also held that the
section of the student conduct
code under which Jensen had
been convicted was invalid because proper procedures were
not used when it was adopted.
In reversing the Student Court
conviction the conduct committee gave the opinion that the
activities of the placement service (the U of O office which
arranges corporate recruitment
interviews on campus) is a part
of the U of O campus but its
activities do not fall within the
definition of the phrase, "educational process."
The committee did not comment upon the o the r defense
allegation that the section of the
s tu dent conduct code under
question was invalid.
The hearing lasted about an
hour and the committee deliberated in s e c re t about another
hour before re a c h in g a split
decision. The exact vote wasn't
revealed.
Jensen's case was the first of
18 to be heard by the Student
Court in c on n e c ti on with the
disruption of Weyerhaeuser Co.
recruiters. None of the other

students charged in the c as e
have gone before the student
court yet.
Richard Rapp, assistant dean
of students at the U of 0, said
Thursday that the precedent set
by the conduct committee's action would make it '' impossible
for the university to bring a
charge of disruption of the educational process" against the
students involved in the Weyerhaeuser demonstration.
He said other students to be
tried by the Student Court in
the incident will probably be
charged with misuse of university property and disorder 1y

too busy; however, we are doing an adequate job with the
people seeking assistance." The
clinic, which functions on a 24hour basis, provides crisis counseling, medical attention and a
medical-dental referral service.
Lemons listed community response as excellent. White Bird
has had a substatial number of
people and problems with which
to deal. A large number of doctors, nurses, psychiatrists and
psychologists have donated their
time, equipment and money to
the free clinic. A doctor is in
the clinic daily from 7-11 a.m.
In providing medical services
to the needy in the Eugene area,
White Bird hopes to reach the
16-25 age group of people with
poor life styles or those that
fall into a lower socio-economic
group and arj? unable to afford
needed medical attention.
Open from 2 p.m. until midnight daily, with the exception of
Sunday, White Bird is filling a
void left by other community
social and medical facilities.

Blues Concert held on LCC campus
by Arlie Richards
What can be said of the Mississippi Delta Folk Blues Concert on Saturday, April ll. but
that those who missed it missed
some honest and together music.
In concert were scheduled Rev.
Robert Wilkins and Robert Pete
Williams. Rev. Wilkins couldn't
make it, so a folk singer by the
name of Monty Fisher took his
place, and did some original
songs. If I took some of the
phrases from his songs and put
them together I could say that
"he sang a song with a message of love and life." Fisher
has been in Eugene since 1952,
though he has performed down
south around San Francisco and
Santa Barbara. He made four recordings with the Filmore Record Group and plays locally at
the Odyssey. So the first chance
you get, listen to him far he
has an unique folk style of his
own.
Robert Pete Williams, the
Blues singer, was accepted very
well. He is credited with beginning the talking blues back in

included a personal tour by Eric

of Between Parent and Child.

traveled to Lincoln City, Oregon
to attend a convention of the Oregon Home Economics Association, April 17 and 18. Willy Mae

Belden is the chairman of Home
Economics Departments of Oregon Colleges and Universities.

The Rascals, one of the liveliest and fastest changing rock
groups in America, will appear
at Mac Court on the UO campus
Friday, April 17. The gig is
scheduled to begin at 8 p.m. and
should hold some surprises for
Rascals' fans.
The Rascals' music goes deeper now; it is more lyrically wise.
It is music that brings together
jazz, blues, folk-rock, Nashville echoes, and Oriental influences. The sounds vibrate
through you and make you move.
It's music The Rascals compose,
arrange, produce, perform, and
publish themselves.
The Rascals started performing together in 1965 as "The
Young Rascals." They're now

out of ch o 1 r boy shirts and
knickers into four separate,
strong personalities. Heading up
the group is Felix Cavaliere,
singer and organist; then Eddie
Brigati, singer and percussion
man; Gene Cronish, guitarist; and
Dino Danelli, drummer.
The Rascals have had one record-breaking appearance after
another. They sold out in Hawaii in seven hours; they've
turned away crowds at the early
Phone Booth, Har 1ow' s, The
Scene, and the Whisk~y A-Go~Go;
they've performed m Madison
Square Garden before 16,000 and
at the Hollywood Bowl before SRO
audiences. They've also toured
Europe to standing ovations in
Madrid, Stockholm, and Frank-

furt.
Besides their new sounds, Friday night's audience can expect
to hear such familiar hits as:
"I Ain't Gonna Eat Out My Heart
Anymore," "Good Lovin'," "You
Better Run," "A Girl Like You,"
"How Can I Be Sure," "It's
Wonderful," "A Beautiful Morning," "People Got to be Free,"
"A Ray of Hope," "Heaven," and
their current release--"See."
The Rascals also have six successful albums--and a collection
of seven Gold Records for their
efforts.
And The Rascals grow on.

changes as you'll see from their
performance Friday night.

the 1930's. He built his first
guitar out of a cigar box and
bought his first real guitar for
a dollar. What can be said about
his music is that it's rich, honest,
and pure blues. It's together music about his life, his loves and
things he has done. He cut some
of his "right on" music at the
Newport Foik Festival; he also
has some on the Tacoma label.

The Master of Ceremonies,
Carl Pinnington, did a great job
keeping things going there. He
was responsible for the entertainment. He goes around promoting not so well known musicians that play what he feels to
be honest music. Saturday night
was a good example of this honest music. Carl works with a
lot of his promotions at the Attic.

Pro Baseball Preview
Last Monday, April 5, major
league baseball op en e d its hundred and first season.
This year the major leagues
are without the services of the
Seattle Pilots, Denny McLain and
Curt Flood.
The Pilots, a poorly supported
1969 expansion team, became the
Milwaukee Brewers last month
when, after a long, drawn-out
courtroom battle, the Se at t 1e
franchise was allowed to move to
Milwaukee. The state of Washington has retafiated by slapping
baseball with a $82 million antitrust suit.
McLain, the star pitcher for
the Detroit Tigers, has been suspended until July 1 by Baseball
Commissioner Bowie Kuhn for
alledged involvement with gamblers. On July 1, McLain will be
allowed to rejoin his teammates
in their drive for the pennant.
Flood is attackmg baseball's
reserve clause which holds a
player to the team he originally
signs with. Flood decided to
fight baseball after he was traded
to Philadelphia from St, Louis.
Flood, who is losing n e a r I y
$90,000 by not playing this year,
claims the reserve clause deprives him of his freedom.
Nevertheless, profession al
baseball is off to a roaring start
even without the Pilots, Flood,
and McLain. Each of the leagues'
24 teams is now involved in the
long torrid scramble for the divisional playoffs and the ultimate
battle--the World Series.

Two runs in the top of the
fourth inning were all the Oregon State University jayvee baseball team needed, en route to
a 7-6 victory over the Lane Community College Titans Tuesday,
April 7, at Civic Stadium.
The Beavers got their two runs
on three singles and a fielder's

and a walk.
The Titans came right back in

Then shortstop Bobby Foster
blooped the first pitch into center for a base hit, but Joll was

The Beavers got another run
in the third inning when short,stop Greg Redit hit Lee Holly's

Trackmen trounce teams in three-way meet April 11

Press build-up damaging?
The finest teams in any sport are the ones
that can withstand the constant barrage of the
Press. .n. group of sportswriters can make or
break a team merely by the articles they write.
Amateurs are not the only athletes who lose
out to their large amounts of newspaper publicity. Even the finest professionals are affected
by articles about them, be the publicity good or
bad.
• The area in which the newspaper's sports
coverage does the most damage is in college
sports. Right here in Eugene, the University of
Oregon has been affected several times, most
of which have hurt their teams more than helped
them. The Webfoots opened the season in spectacular fashion as they won their second consecutive Far West Classic. A certain Eugene newspaper proceeded to play up the Ducks as a fantastic team, one which could very well win the
Pacific Eight championship. However, early
publicity to many teams is disastrous. Such
was the case for Oregon's basketball team. They
proceeded to start out slow, losing to some teams
which they had previously defeated. Then, with
the season almost over, they knocked off UCLA,
eventual NCAA champion.

Heffstrup scored the second run
on Laub's hard-hit double. Laub
finished the scoring when he came
dashing around Myers' base hit.
From then on, the game became a hitting attack, as both
teams slugged away on fairly even
terms until the Titans took the

by Tom Beach

their newspaper publicity. This year, a group
of relatively unproven athletes opened the season with a victory over Texas El Paso, thought
to be the top college track team in America.
While boasting about this victory, the newspaper forgot to mention Washington, and the
Huskies nearly knocked the Duck spikers off
Cloud Nine. Track is a sport where tenths of
seconds and inches are most important.
The newspaper cannot proceed to pat an athlete on the back too hard, or it will go to his
head and he will flop the following week.
Sportswriters put too much emphasis on upsets. Everyone likes to see an upset, but as
Oregon found out, it can go the other way, too.
If a team records a notable upset, the newspaper should give the event its deserved oneday news, but should not get in the habit of
making it one-week news, forgetting about the
other guys.
Professional teams are a 1 so affected by
sportswriters, but in a slightly different manner.
Take, for example, the Chicago Cubs baseball
team last year. With the season 3/4 over, the
Cubs owned a ten-game lead and had a good
chance of making the playoffs. However, the
newspapers conceded the championship to them
and forgot about the other teams. Apparently,
so did the Cub players, because at the end of
the season, the Cubs were in second place
behind the New York Mets, eventual world champions.

Held in Coos Bay on Saturday,
April 11, the meet provided very
few top marks because of unpredictable weather conditions.
In the field and weight events,
L C C showed exceptional strength. Doyle Canaday picked up
victories in the shot put and
discus. The javelin throw was
Lane's event, as they took all
three places with Don VanArnam
winning the event.
However, the real star of the
field events and the meet was
ex-Springfield High standout
Dave Wise. Dave won the long
jump, triple jump, and came back
later in the meet to win easily
the 220 yard dash.
Rod Mooers, former prep star
at Elmira, was a double winner for LCC as he won the pole
vault and the high hurdles.
In the distance events, Jan
Mc Neale, former Thurston runner, completely dominated his
competition as he won both the
880 and mi 1e runs. Teammate
John McCray led a Titan sweep ,
in the two mile with a time of
9:58.
Lane's relay teams were also
victorious in the 440 and mile
relays respectively.
other winners for Lane were
Paul Stoppel in the 100 yard dash,
Dan Norton from Churchill in the
440 vard dash, and Dennis <?on-

ley, formerly of Springfield High,
in the high jump.
Although the meet provided
little competition for LCC as
they won every event, it did
provide the trackmen a good
opportunity to perform under less
than perfect conditions.

officials said such an abort procedure has been run on a simulator.
While the lunar module can
provide power to establish a trajectory and sustain the astronauts
during the return trip, it cannot
be used for re-entry. Due to
lack of heat shields and parachutes, the LEM would "dissolve
in fire" if it were to be used for
re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere. For that re-entry the
astronauts will have to return to
the command module, which has
emergency battery power available and a reserve supply of
oxygen. The lunar lander will
be jettisoned during re-entry.
No definite landing plan had
been established at the time of a
NASA news conference (approximately 1:15 EST). A landing in
the Atlantic is possible at an
elapsed flight time of 133 hours,
but no U.S. Navy recovery vessels are in the area. Recovery
in an Atlantic splashdown would
depend on planes carrying parajumpers and a "ship of opportunity" happening to be in the
area. A splashdown in the Pacific would require an elapsed flight
time of 142 hours, but would make
use of the recovery team already
there. The decision about landing
plans coul~ be delayed without
danger, NASA representatives
said, until 77 to 79 hours into the
flight--some 18 or 19 hours after
the conference. NASA wanted to
wait for that decision to see what
happened in the next rew hours.

For instance, a ten-week, noncredit course in business law is
offered this term. This class
and others, such as secretarial
accounting, taught during Winter
Term, are intended to upgrade the
skills of professional secretaries
who already have some background in these subjects.
The National Secretaries Association, an international organization to which any professional secretary may belong,
sponsors, develops, administers
and evaluates the certifying examinations.
Approximately 2,200 secretaries throughout the United States,
Canada and Puerto Rico will
take the annual tests to be given
on May I and 2.
LCC, has been selected for
the second time as one of the 116
testing centers. The only other
Oregon center is at Lewis and
Clark College, Portland. Mrs.
Bayes will act as proctor to
administer the test here at LCC.
A secretary need not be a
member of NSa to apply to take
the exam. What she doos need
is to prepare herself for an
educational grind extending over
several years time.
The certifying exam is not
easy. Nor is it inexpensive. In
addition to a $10 processing fee,

costs an additional $10.

perience, the time length depending on the formal Mucauon of
the applicant. A high school graduate, for instance, needs at
least three years working experience, while a college graduate is required to have only
one.

Because of the respected position of a CPS in the business
world and a recognition of the
academic qualifications involved,
several four-year colleges have
expressed interest in granting up
to 36 hours credit for those
courses which apply directly to
certification.
As employers have realized
the outstanding abilities of the
CPS, they find ways to encourage
prospective candidates in more
