BOARD REVERSES EARLIER DECISION to answer specific questions
concerning reasons for termination of President Pickering's contract.
LCC Board of Education Chairman Clifford Matson makes that
statement following a recess of the meeting. He also stated the Board
will isue a statement in the near future, explaining procedures of
the contract termination.

Efforts to induce the ·L CC
Bo a rd of Education to reveal
specific reasons for its failure
to renew President Robert Pickering's contract resulted in a
commitment by the Board to explain publicly the procedures followed in making the decision.
That statement will be issued
in the near future.
The Board will not, however,
make any statement on specific
reasons for the decision, as it
is Board policy to keep all personnel matters in strict confidence.
The compromise decision resulted from a two-hour public
questioning of the Board at its
regular meeting Wednesday, May
13, in the LCC Board Room.
The Board meeting began in
a light vein when the moderator's
gavel could not be found to call
the meeting to order, butevolved
into audience participation at the
point in the agenda reserved for
comments from the public. Representatives of a group calling
itself "Concerned Citizens and
Taxpayers of the LCC Area"
asked for clarification of details
surrounding the non-renewal of

Academic Council to hear first appeal

The first traffic violation on
the LCC campus in four years
has made cl ear the function and
importance of the LCC Academic
Council.
The Council has been in existence since the creation of LCC
in 1965, and is described in the
Student Handbook as " ... a committee of staff and students appointed by the president which
waives academic regulations, and
considers appeals by students."
The case before the Council
is that of an LCC student who
received a traffic violation on
campus and disagreed with the
officer's decision. The student
followed the proper appeal procedure as put forth in the Student Handbook, but a question
arose as to whether the Academic
Council should handle that kind
of appeal, since the problem has
nothing to do with academic policies of any kind.
The student then asked Dean
of Students I. S. "Bud" Hakan-

Harwood election

son to contact the President of
the Council for a ruling on the
responsibility of the Council. The
Council decided to hold a hearing
with the student to deal with his
case, since the Stduent Grievance
procedure clearly states that the
Academic Co u n c i 1 regulates
grievances.
A proposal was made that a
student traffic council be formed
at Lane. This would require, said
Dean Hakanson, at !eat four students to work two hours a week.
The problem is finding four students willing to do so.
Dean Hakanson suggested that
all students be aquainted with the
Student Grievence Procedures:
1. If possible, make direct personal contact with the other party.

2. Consult with the Dean of Students, or his representatives (any
~ounselor).
3. Write out the specific problem,
stating as clearly as possible
names, dates, etc.
4. The Dean of Students presents
the student's written statement to
the Academic Council for its consideration. The Academic Council consists of representatives of
administration, staff, and students. It acts in an advisory
capacity to the President, Dean
of Instruction, Dean of College
Services and Dean of Students.
5. If the question is still unresolved, direct appeal may be
made to the President or, through
his office, to the Board of Education.

Fou~ departments minus senators
Tom Purvis, Student Senate
Publicity Director, announced
Friday that four senatorial chairs
are not yet filled. As a result,
four departments---Adult Education, Electronics, Fine Arts
and Para-dental---are without

representation in student government.
These positions are open to
students working at the Sophomore level next year. Inquire
at the Student Senate office for
petitions and information.

the President's contract, which
had been publicly announced on
April 13.
Dr. Pickering came to LCC
July 1, 1969, on a one-year contract. The decision of April 13
not to renew his contract was
made official by the Board during
a closed session following the
open business meeting Wednesday. The Board stated that
since it ''has heretofore determined that the one-year contract
with its president, Robert L.
Pickering, should not be renewed," it "does hereby formally
advise, notify and provide that the
one-year contract with President
Robert L. Pickering expiring July
1, 1970, shall not be renewed and
that his services shall therefore
be terminated at that time."
When the original decision was
announced, the Board issued a
statement citing "loss of effectiveness as an administrator" as
a key reason for not rehiring him.
In a separate statement, Pickering said "mutually unfulfilled
expectations were causative factors."
Some of the citizens
questioning the Board indicated
these comments were too general
and needed clarification.
Qu e s t i o n s asked in c 1u d e d
where Dr. Pickering's failure as
an administrator lay, what policies, if any, were proposed but
were not carried out, and whether
policies had been proposed by the
president and carried out without
Board approval.
Board Chairman, Dr. Clifford
Matson, stated the Board would
not respond to the questions asked
and that it had asked Dr. Pickering not to respond.
Some of the citizens charged
that the Board, by not responding
to specific questions about the
reasons for the President's contract, was '' sweeping something
under the carpet." othe rs said
they were losing confidence in
the Board and needed to know
the "facts" surrounding Pickering's release to be able to
support the college's tax base
request.
Several of the dissenting group
emphasized that Pickering had
had no experience as a college
administrator and was still new
at the job, that it was too soon
to pass final judgment on his
performance, and questioned the
cooperation and communication
given him by the Board.
Still others reported rumors
that the Board and/or key administrators at the college had intiontionally ''undermined'' the
president in a conscious attempt
to get rid of him. Some pressed
the Board on the validity of its
method of presidential selection
and e_valuation procedures, and
wanted to know if the new president might face the same pro- •
blems.

Kathryn Harwood's election as
ASB Second Vice-President was
unanimously ratified by the LCC
Student Senate at its regular
meeting on May 14, 1970.
There was some question as to
the validity of Miss Harwood's
election, as she is not attending classes this term but was a
student at the time of her election. The Senate's ratification
was on the condition that she be
enrolled full time next fall.
In other Senate business, Tom

tion--mostly LCC students and
staff members--urged those asking questions to have faith in
the Board as their elected representatives. They denied there
was any conspiracy to get rid of
the president and defended the
need for keeping Board personnel
discussions private.
Though Matson announced
during the meeting that specific
questions would be answered in
writing if they were presented to
the Board in writing with the
address of the questioner, the
Board went into closed session
briefly to reconsider this action.
The reconsideration res u 1t e d
from contentions that answering
written q u e st ions would be
equa:ny as much a violation of
Bo a rd policy on personnel matters as would answering questions in a public meeting. E~gene City Councilman Fred Mohr
contended that breaching Board
policy in this instance would be
embarking on a "perilous course"
and "could set a dangerous precedent" which could limit future
academic freedom. William
Beals, chairman of the LCC Social Science division, argued that
revealing specific details ofpersonnel de c is ions could limit
future prospects for the individual involved and result in his
not being accepted for positions
where he would fit verywelleven
though he did not function well
in a particular setting. ''I think
this so strongly," Beals said,
'' I would leave my position rather
than reveal the confidence."
When the open meeting resumed, Matson announced the
Board would issue a statement
on the "procedural questions"
surrounding the decision not to
re-hire Pickering, but that "personnel session material will not
be discussed in any form in public." It was at a closed persoru1el session that the decision
was made.
Several members of the audience who had been questioning
the Board indicated they would
be satisfied with such a response.
In other action, the Board:
Solicited public reaction to
and questions about the proposed
LCC operating budget, to be offered to the voters on May 26.
There were no questions from the
audience.

LCC in the pas t has gotten the bulk
of its operating money from sources
other than the property tax. It has
relied heavily on state support and
federal funds. It has purposely kept
tuition low to make its "open" door as
economically wide as possible.

Not long ago, Lane Community College was only an idea. People liked the
idea. With votes and dollars, they
launched this area's most exciting experiment in post-high school education.
The coll,e ge has been going five
years now. It is completing its second
year on a campus all its own.

Enrollment has increased at least 20
per cent a year for the past three years.
It will slow down a tad next year, rising
by an estimated 17 per cent from the
4,700 full-time-equivalent students of
this year to a projected 5,500.

These have been years of exhilarating success. The idea proved as good as
its promise; the experiment worked.
Everyone who had a part in conceiving
and building the new institution-everyone from Dale Parnell to the last
taxpayer in the broad LCC district-can
take pride in a job well done.

To meet the resu'lting financial
needs, the college board reluctantly
placed part of the burden on the students. Tuition will go up for the second
year in a row. The basic tuition for
in-district residents will go from $180 a
year today to $210 a year next fall.

But there's the rub. The job isn't
done. It never will be. A college cannot
be built and then forgotten. It is a living
institution that must be sustained. And
in some ways, the task of sustaining is
more arduous, perhaps because it is
less glamorous, than the task of starting

The college budget committee pared
staff-recommended operating expenses
more than $700.000. It cut 15 desired
additions to the instructional staff.
Some 34 new full-time teaching positions
were allowed, an increase of 15 per
cent, not quite matching the rate of
enrollment increase.

up.

This is where Lane Community Col.ege stands today as it asks voters for
:he money to keep going at a level of
excellence made possible by their support in the past.

The $2.9 million requested in local
taxes will support 38 per cent of the
total $7.1 million budget. That is too
great a share, but the college does not
control the state and federal shares.

On the primary ballot, the college is
asking for approval of a measure to
increase its property tax base from the
present $1.5 million to nearly $2.9 million.
The $2.9 million is the amount the
college needs just for the coming year
(1970-71). Ideally, the college would ask
for a base that it thought might last for
s e v e r a 1 years. The board decided
against that in recognition of a depressed local economy.

If the college does not get the money
it needs, it will either have to accept
fewer students - directly contrary to
the "open door" philosophy that is one
of its chief attributes - or water down
its program. Neither alternative is desirable.

Growth, faster than anticipated, is
the basic cause of the need for more tax
noney. That plus the fact that other
s0urces of revenue are not keeping up.

The new tax base would cause the
tax bills of property owners within the
LCC district to increase by 48 cents per
thousand dollars of true cash vah,e.
That is what it will take to keep a good
thing going

For the past two weeks, the Torch has asked
that students submit their opinions of LCC and
it-s programs, to be used in a special section
in this issue.
As is evident, no special section is included-because no items were received.
We realize that this failure to express views
in writing does not necessarily indicate lack
of concern, but may be a function of lack of
time and energy.
Don't let this same lack of time and energy
keep you from voting May 26. If you care about

or the U of O. President Pickering answered by explaining that
"education is a communication of
ideas." He concluded the Wednesday meeting with a summation
of his feelings. "I'm an American, I'm a veteran. The flag
is my flag wherever it is. The
lowering of the flag is an expression of c on c e r n for all the
people killed. You have the right
to disagree as long as the facts
are understood. Our country is
being fragmented and many of the
sources are internal, materialistic, secular and hedonistic."
The two sides on the flag lowering issue continued their discussion in an informal meeting
at noon on Wednesday. Little
progress was made however, with
those in favor of raising the flag
saying that nothing could be accomplished this way, and the rest
saying that they were fighting for
what they believed in.
A petition was started by those
who wanted the flag raised at
noon on Wednesday and by the end
of the day, they had over 700
signatures. It was agreed after
a meeting with President Pickering to return the flag to full
mast after the 11:30 Thursday
convocation.
Some 250 people gathered in
LCC's gymnasium for the convocation and heard Pre s id en t

Pickering and eight others speak
on the past week's events. Pickering made it clear at the outset that the flag issue had been
settled, with both sides agreeing
to raise the flag to full-staff
immediately after the convocation. The eight speakers were
divided in their support of President Nixon's actions in Cambodia.
Marvin Jaegers, an assistant
professor of history, spoke on the
constitutionality of the Cambodian operation. Terry Landrath,
a student and US Navy veteran,
said he believed in working towards U.S. withdrawal from Vietnam. Gene Moyer, an Air Force
veteran and student, supported
Nixon's policy. Ronald Mitchell,
an assistant professor of psychology, said that events of recent
months have 1e ft him "frustrated." Tom Welborn, another
student, said he ''backed the administration 100 per cent." Student Bill Cmpbell, a veteran of
Vietnam, said the war is absurd.
Paul Klobas, an assistant professor of sociology, spoke on the
polarization of the country over
war issues. The last speaker was
LCC counselor,Art Scaefer, who
advocated more positive thinking
when everyone is thinking negatively.

Ames explains Food Service price hikes

by Doris Ewing
Fifty cents used to mean a
hamburger, french fries and a
coke to many LCC students who
eat in the cafeteria. Now the
same food costs 60 cents.
The drink still costs a dime,
but what happened to the 25~
hamburger and 15~ fries?
While students pay an average
of 25-30% less than for comparable food and service off campus, many feel prices are too
high and changed too often.
When asked about price increases, Food Service Manager
Merlin Ames said "Not all food
has gone up in price." With a
few exceptions, he said, the only
increase was in December when
a general raise of five cents
on a number of foods went into
effect.
Also, Ames said, in spite of
a 20% increase in meat and other
food costs, prices, with one exception, have not increased in
the restaurant area.
What most people don't realize,

Restaurant prices are purposely kept as low as possible

Americans for a Peaceful World

speaker, Professor Louis Olivier
from the U of O to speak on
behalf of People Against Nerve

from Okinawa to Oregon.
The informative speech, given
at the free-speech platform directly outside the student lounge
area of the Center Building, will
be followed by a question and
answer session. For those people
whom are unable to attend the
Thursday rally, Professor John
Menninger from the U of O Biology Department will be present
Friday at the same location and
time to inform students and answer questions concerning the
nerve gas issue. All students
are invited to attend the noon
rallies.
At a Student Senate meeting,

for student body endorsement of

dropped from 25 cents to 20
cents.
With one exception, restaurant
prices are the same as they were
when school began last fall, said
Ames. The daily special used to
be a 95 cent or one dollar item.
It usually was what is called a
"macaroni" special.
Today a customer pays $1.25
for a meal chosen from a larger
selection of more expensive
foods. Ames said this provides
the food technology students with
more variety in meal preparation.
The price increase has more
effect on the snack items when
a fifty-cent food a 11 ow anc e

A five cent increase on each of
several snack items adds up more
rapidly than the same nickel increase on a single sixty-cent

meal portion.
To encourage students to eat
more balanced meals and also to
give their budgets a boost, Food
Service now offers the Daily
Nutrition Special. For a dollar
one can buy a complete meal
planned to provide a third of the
daily nutritional needs.
Typically such a menu consists of meat, bread or other
food, vegetable, salad, dessert
and drink. A recently served
Nutrition Special was Hawaiian
chicken with dressirig, buttered
carrots, tossed green salad, jello
and coffee or milk.
The same meal, purchased at
a la carte prices averages out
to about $1.35 but may run as high
as $1.50. On the other hand, Ames
said, two hamburgers, a shake
and french fries costs $1.05 and
don't satisfy nutritional needs.

Film available
to community

"A College That Cares," the
16 mm color film which captures
the feelings of eight LCC students about Lane - why they are
here and what the college has
done for them - is available to
community groups through the
LCC Office of Community Services.
This film has been a dream of
the college for two years, according to Bert Dotson , director
of community services. Dotson
believes it catches the spirit of
LCC. It is he says, a nonprofessional, honest look at the
en thus i as m, friendliness, opportunity, excellent insturctors
and individual help which LCC
students see in their college.
Following a tour of the junior
high schools· in the College District, the film will be available
to any community group requesting it. The movie was produced
by Will Trumbull Productions
of Eugene.
Students cast in the movie include: Duane Hogue, airframe
major; Mona Greg, psychology
major; Lois Feist, history major;
Ted Napier, civil engineering
major; Orval Baker, auto body
major; Margie Swisher, nursing
Jllajor; Kathy Koch, clerical assistants major; and Jay Moatgomery, business major.

cent for an average restaurant.
However, restaurant prices do
include the cost of service. For
instance, veal cutlets cost 55 or
60 cents at cafeteria prices, but
are 75 cents in the restaurant.
On Dec. 1 a general five-cent
price increase went into effect
on entree, salad and some side
dishes in the cafeteria and on
hamburgers and ice cream in
the snack bar.
Doughnuts and their high, fluctuating price, are usually mentioned when students discuss food
costs. AU doughnuts used to cost
10 cents. Then, Ames said, Food
Service believed it could produce the cake-type for a nickel.
A cost evaluation after a trial
period at this price showed that
not only did cake doughnuts cost
more than five cents to make,
but the raised doughnuts cost
more than a dime.
Cake doughnuts are now 8 cents
or two for 15 cents and raised
ones sell for 13 cents or two
for 25 cents.
The 15 cent price of french
fries was hiked when the wholesale cost of potatoes went up.

Decided to postpone a decision
on blacktopping of a 1,000-car
parking lot at the northeast corner of the campus. Board member Catherine Lauris suggested
that a bus service be considered
in lieu of depending completely
on auto commuter transportation.
Voted to change Board policy
to permit residents of the U.S.

Applications due
for CSPA students
Those persons wishing to enroll in the University of Oregon's Wallace School of Community Service and Public Affairs as new majors (juniors
and seniors) n e x t fall should
apply immediately.
The s c h o o 1 has announced
that a combination of high student interest in CSPA and limited resources is requiring a limitation on new student enrollment.
This departure from the past
policy of open enrollment was
taken to insure that the school
could maintain a high level of
instruction. A major in CSP A
consists of m u c h f i e 1d work
which requires a limited student
faculty ratio.

As an outcome of the meeting,
speakers were arranged for two
days later in the week to give an
informative briefing to students.
Procurement of a documentary

year over national TV was also
s~~gh~.
Issues which the group talked
of briefly covered such elements
as the proposed EWEB nuclear
power plant, air pollution and the
military insurgence into
U.S.
Cambodia. The students felt that
the most important facet they
might undertake concerning the
controversial issues was that of
understanding the situation themselves and passing on the information to their fellow students.
Before the meeting broke up,
Tom Wheaton, spokesman for
APW suggested .a resolution

Campus split by crack, dispu te rages

Many stu(EDITOR'S NOTE:
dent reporters have a problem-they couldn't write (in enough
detail) to make a two-inch story
out of a bombing of the Center
Building. The TORCH is fortunate that some of its reporters
don't have that problem. They
have a different "problem" --they could do an in-depth, twofoot story on the tadpoles in the
fountain. One reporter's reputation for depth and detail led the
Editor to comment: "I'll bet
you could write a four-page story
on a crack in the sidewalk in
front of the Center Building."
The following is the result.)

Come out of the front door, on
the dining room side, of the cafeteria, go up the flight of steps toward the Business Building, and
stop. Look down at the sidewalk
and there it is---about two or
three feet long, crooked and a
quarter-inch deep, more or less.
The crack!
No one knows how long it has
been in that particular location.
In fact, no one knows how it
got there.
At the time the cement was
poured in that location, the contractor evidently intended that no
cracks should appear, or atleast
that they would show up only under
the cover of darkness.
The cement in the area is about
five years old. In that time it
has undergone a general aging
(about five years' worth, according to one opinion), has turned
a darker shade of gray, and been
exposed to heavy traffic.
When asked about the crack,
Superintendent of College Facilities Billy Box said he didn't
even know that it had appeared.
"If such a crack is there," he
said, "it must have some purpose."
What that purpose might be, he
didn't say.
Deans of Students, Hawk and
Son, said possibly some one had
ridden a white horse off in different directions a c r o s s the
cement in an effort to yoke the
two sides of the campus together.
"The weight of the effort undoubtedly caused the crack," they
said.
Registrar Fi I be rt Marshmallow said that although the
Registrar's Office doesn't like to
reveal such information, the
crack is not listed as a regularly enrolled student at this
time. In fact, it has never been
enrolled although there is a pos-

sibility that it may have been a
silent observer in some of the
non-credit courses such as winemaking and whittling.
"What makes it doubly difficult to find a record on the
crack," he said, ''is that it has
never given us its name. And
who or what wants to admit being
a crack or related to one?"
John Inches, head of LCC se-•
curity force, said the crack appears at this time to represent
no threat, but since it is a nonstudent, "we're keeping a close
watch on it to pre vent trouble
caused by outside agitators who
wish to split our campus."
The future of the crack seems
'to be in doubt.
One freshman student said he
didn't know where the crack came
from, but he could certainly put
it to good use filing the change
left over from his work-study
pay.
Another student said it might be
useful for the overflow from the
campus cleanup campaign.
Toe Biology Department has
planned to make use of the dirt
in the c rack for planting purposes, so that it can serve a
practical as well as decorative
function. J. Mars Ton said he
would like to see some kind of
radar system installed at that
point, as traffic seems to get
congested at certain times of
the day. "And with all this new
research being done on plants,"
he said, "t~at seems to be t~e
most practical means to do 1t.
President Pickerell has referred the question of appropriate
use of the crack to a committee
headed by Dean of Instruction
Serious Case to determine
whether the crack could best be
integrated into the college transfer or vocational program. "The
committee," said Case, "favors
a program suggested by Dr. Picks
Um of the Paradental Department."
Dr. Picks Um said a new program for next fall is in the
planning stage for utilizing the
crack. This new curriculum
would give students in the dental
program the opportunity to work
on larger -than - life - size cavities. At this time, when an
example of some dental problem
needs to be demonstrated, a patient must oblige with a broken
tooth or cavity. Now, said Pick
Um, this crack is the ideal opportunity to work on a larger
model.

"Where else," he asked,
"could you find a model cavity,
ideally situated in the open air,
in public view where passers-by
could oversee the operation or
technique? Filling, cleaning and
examination procedures could be
done thoroughly while at the same
time demonstrating the technique
to the audience."

i m mediate steps be taken to
remove the filling material.
Student Senate reaction was expressed by newly elected ASB
President Worn Coveralls, who
said that the crack should prove
to be part of his projected "wellrounded, varied student activities

program." "Since students at a
community college are of such a
wide variety," he said, "I'd like
to see diversified activities which
would not be aimed at just one
group. This fits the bill."
When interviewed, the crack
refused to comment.

"This way," said the dentist,
"a cavity hygiene program could
be carried out in conjunction with
the training of dental hygienists."
Funds for this program would
come from the p r op o s e d LCC
budget. Once funds have been
allocated, permanent bleachers
will be constructed around the
area to accommodate expected
viewers. "Of course," said Box,
"this will cause come inconvenience in traffic pattern, but
the value of the program will
far outweigh any congestion problem.''

Athletic Director Cecil Dodges
registered a protest against the
p r op o s e d construction of bleachers around the crack, stating
he felt priority should be given
to spectator facilities for existing
programs before newcomers are
considered.
Use of the crack is a controversial t op i c among students.
One group has demanded that the
crack be left as is to maintain
the ecological balance of the area.
The group has also asked that
the college close the area around
the crack to traffic, and says if
no official action is taken on this
request, b a r r i c ad e s will be
erected around the area to force
the issue.
In the meantime, the crack will
remain on display for at least two
weeks. KLCC-FM, the campus
radio station, plans to do a remote
broadcast from the location of the
crack during this time. Students
are encouraged to express their
feelings for or against the crack
by filling out a survey form which
can be picked up in the Student
Senate office. A special RIP
session will be held Thursday,
according to RIP adviser Art
Baegger. Two student groups
will be present at the RIP. One
group has presented a petition
signed by five students calling
for the crack to be filled. The
second group also presented a
petition signed by five students,
asking that if the crack is filled,

SMALL CRACK DEVELOPS about four feet away from the crack
now under discussion. Handling of this crack will depend on the
outcome of the present controversy. It is feared, however, that
the two fissures may join, thus widening the problem.

Students approve
Dial Retrieval use
Students in the History of the
United States classes taught by
M. L. Jaegers and Milt Madden
recently eXPressed opinions regarding the use of the LCC dial
retrieval system.
The following question was one
of ten to which students responded
as part of the student evaluation
of the course materials and
teaching procedures employed by
these two instructors:
Please offer your frank opinion regarding the use of taped
lectures on important topics for
use on the dial retrieval system,
e.g. "The Peculiar Institution,"
"The Populist Revolt," "The
Turner Thesis," "The Age of
Enterprise." Would you avail
yourself of these? If lectures
were made available on Dial
Retrieval of most of the important topics?
The r e s u It s of the survey
showed 192 students approving the
use of dial retrieval, 43 against
and 21 indifferent.
Most of the students felt the
dial retrieval system should be
utilized to the fullest extent possible. Many eXPressed the hope
that all instructors would make
some use of it with each class.
Many liked the idea of being
able to hear a lecture as often
as they wished in order to get
adequate notes. Most students indicated a preference for audio
tapes rather than video tapes.
Many commented that students
who had to miss a class could
still get important presentations.
The majority indicated that an
hour taped lecture was "too
much." The most recommended
length was thirty minutes at a
reasonable speed ·conducive to
•
note-taking.
Those opposed to the use of
dial retrieval gave two primary
reasons: 1) Why go to class if
the lecture was on dial retrevial?
2) They failed to get anything out
of any lectures, either in class
or on dial retrieval.
One positive result of the survey is that audio tapes on important topics of United States
History have been available each
week of the Spring Term on the
dial retrieval. More are being
planned, along with some proposed video tapes.

Titan team wins, loses and learns

The Lane Community College
Titans, in their first State Baseb a 11 Championship Tournament,
did three things.
They won, they lost, and they

No matter what, they were not
the Titan team that raced through
the Southern Division of the Ore-

gon Community Co 11 e g e Athletic Association untouched, ripping their division foes for aperfeet 10-0 league record.
Reeling through their division
undefeated, Lane was atop many
of the statistics - one of them
being defense.
Through the league schedule,
the Titans were number on in
defense all the way, averaging

only 1.81 errors a game - one
factor that enabled them to have
an undefeated season.
Another big factor for their
perfect league record was their
hitting attack - number one in
their division with an awesome
barrage of 11 hits a game.
In the pitching department, Reg
Gardner, Lee Holly, and Steve
Townsend were the workhorses
of coach Irv Roth's well-rounded
staff.
Gardner was fifth in the league in ERA, Townsend led the
team in strikeouts, and innings
pitched, and Holly was a hard

Blue Bandits dump foes
in slow pitch play-off
A three-run, seventh inning
propelled Bob Purcelley's Blue
Bandits to a stunning 7 -5 intramural slow-pitch softball victory over Steve Harper's Beavers last Tuesday, May 12. The
victors made use of an error by
their opponents, and singles by
Bob Schultz, Bob Barley, and
Bob Purscelley in their gamewinning rally.
The Beavers, who were down
throughout most of the contest,
rallied and took the lead in the
sixth inning. But the rousing Blue
Bandit's seventh inning stopped
the fur carriers in their tracks.
Craig Widmer picked up the
win while Coach Harper was
rocked for the defeat.

Lane had the league's highest
hitter in second baseman Tom
Joll, with an average of .590.
T h e T it an s a 1s o had the
league's leading homerun hitter
in Rod Laub. Rotating from rightfeidl to catcher, Laub hit well
above the .500 mark, hitting three
circuit shots - two of them coming in spacious Civic Stadium,
home of the Eugene-Springfield
Emeralds.
After going through the league
undefeated and winning the Southern Division Championship, the
Titans headed north last Thursday, May 14, for the start of
the OCCAA Championship Tournament at Mt. Hood.
The Titans did their first
"thing" Friday morning at ll:00
in the tournament opener--they
lost.
Playing against host Mt. Hood,
the Western Division champion, the Titans were struck with
the torunament jitters, as erratic pitching and two costly
errors sent Lane down in defeat by a score of 11-2.
The Titans bounced back in
the second game of the doubleelimination affair that same afternoon, knocking off Clackamas
Community College 3-2.
In that game, the Titans seemed to have the shakes out of
their system, as they played
brilliant defense, committing only two errors enroute to their
win .. their second "thing."
Still alive, and in the consolation finals, the Titans seemed
ready to put it all together, and
fight their way back for the state
championship and a berth in the
Far West Regionals at Grand
Junction, Colo., as they got back

on their winning ways ..but so too
were their opponents, Treasure
Valley Community College, and
their ace righthander Spencer
Wales.
'
Wales was just too much for
the young Titans as he hummed
his fastball and his hard-breaking
slider past the Titan hitters for
14 strikeouts-and a 5-1 victory.
With their second loss, and
tournament elimination, the Titans did their third ''thing" ....
they learned.
E v e n t h o u g h L an e raced
through the Southern Divison undefeated, they learned something
that everyone learns in the field
of sport - something that takes
time to learn, but it doesn't take
long.
For in sports, you have to learn
to take victory wit h defeat, the
good with the bad.
For the Lane Community College Titan baseball team, they did
just that! Winning every game
throughout the league season, the
Titans suddenly had their winning streak stopped at the most
crucial time of the season - the
time they H AD to win, but they
didn't. And for the Titans ...they
learned. They learned that you
can't win them all. But there will
be next year, and possible, another chance for the State title,

Pearl featured at LCC Candidates Forum

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Arthur Pearl headed off
a series of campaign speeches
during a Candidate's , Forum at
LCC, May 6 and returned again
May 11 for a question and answer period. A total of four
candidates spoke in the initial
Candidate's Forum. Speakingbesides Pearl was Robert Wampler, (Rep.) from Oregon City,
Allen Propst, (Dem.) from Albany, and James Morris, (Dem.a
from Eugene.
Arthur Pearl opened the discussion with comments on the 19year -old vote. "Nineteen yearolds pay a considerable amount
of taxes to the state of Oregon,
about 5%, and certainly based on
that alone, they should be allowed
to vote," stated Pearl. Secondly,
he added the young people bear
the brunt of bad government." You
have a government which engages
in crazy wars , and its the young
people who have to fight them."
On the subject oft axes. Pearl
said: ''tax reform will not come
about until we rearrange national
priorities. When one out of every
two dollars that we send to Washington goes to war, there will not
be tax reform." Pearl also cited
the unfairness of Oregon's tax
structure. He said that a person
who makes $100,000 a year pays
the same taxes as a man who
earns $12,000 a year.
Pearl also spoke briefly about
the subject of pollution. He said
that the legislation to curb pol-.
lution is on the books. but "we
must implement this legislative
power to stop the polluters."
"this war is so unpopular
that I>eople would not support it.
even if they didn't have to pay
for it." Pearl' went on to say
that if you' re opposed to illegal
violence at home, then you're opposed to illegal violence abroad ...
"otherwise you're hypocritical."
Education policies, the tenure
system for retaining teachers and
the student strike were also subjects covered by the gubernatorial candidate.
One student asked what could
be done about farmers not getting any loans. Pearl's reply
was that the government should
guarantee loans to farmers because of the importance of keeping our agricultural lands. He
said a problem was arising be·cause the farmers were losing
their mortgages to industrial and
urban development people, leaving less crop land every year.
Pearl wound up his 45 minute
talk with comments on the proposed shipment of nerve gas:
"This is a further sample of army
arrogance. Once they decide upon
something, that's it." He said
the most important thing is that
people should realize the danger
of the gas shipment.
Another candidate, Republican
Robert Wampler also spoke during the May 6 Candidate's Forum,
opening with remarks regarding
the current issue of pollution.
The government is "standing by
while the state is literally being
turned into a sewer," stated
Wampler.
He cited the state
pollution board and said that the
success of the board was due to
former governor Hatfield. He
thought that the paper, aluminum,
or trucking industries were playing politics with the Oregon State
Pollution Board. Wampler spoke
of noise pollution and said that
city government using an interested governor could help get the
ball rolling. He included drugs
in the pollution problem, saying
"It seems to be the thing to turnon with pot or acid. I don''
think the existing state government has grown up to the reality
that drugs are the threat that
they are." "The use of drugs
by our young people is happening right now, you can change it
and I
can make it happen, 0
stated Wampler. Wampler add-

ressed the nerve gas situation
by saying, ''If we had a governor with an ounce of guts he
would have told the federal agency
involved that you cannot bring the
gas into the State of Oregon."
Speaking on tax relief, Wampler said "we need tax relief now,
right now, not when it is politically expedient." He cited the
senior citizens as an example
warranting immediate attention.
He opposed the 19 year-old vote
on the basis of a "lack of maturity," and added "I don't deny
that the 19 year-old is well educated." He was also critical of
Governor McCall's handling of
the U of O disorders and lack of
a firm stand in the situation.
Al Propst, a former meteorologist and agriculture teacher,
first spoke on pollution. He cited
the need for field bu r n in g, because, "the grass goes into cows
and we must burn the grass to
keep the milk that these cows produce."
On taxation, Propst felt that
the state liquor stores should relinquich the selling of liquor to
supermarkets and put the money
back "in the kitty."
"We live in an age of specialand the· n-nt,aT",nnT" should

Forum.

Pearl: "That's an organization
formed to oppose the shipment
of gas. It means 'People against
Nerve Gas'."
Propst: "Oh."
James Gordon Morris, a worker
for Wildish Concrete, said that he
was "standing for the w o r king
men and women" in the state of
Oregon. Morris said that if he
were elected Governor, he would
legalize controlled gambling and
send the proceeds to a school
fund. He felt that within two years
the school finance problems could
be alleviated. He does not, however, believe in a lottery system.
On pollution, Morris cited the
Wildish Company as a representative of a conc1:::rned business that
was taking steps to reduce pollution and he felt that more companies should use filters to re-

duce the amount of contaminents
in the air. On the 19 year-old
vote Morris said, ''I would like
to see the 19 year-old vote if
they're capable of doing so. "
"There are a lot of working
people around the state," he said,
"who are disgusted with the disruptions and vi o 1 enc e at our
schools, but I believe if a kid
is old enough to fight, he is old
enough to vote."
On the subject of taxes, Morris
said that high taxes for people on
fixed incomes are now breaking
them. He suggested a law so that
senior citizens would not have to
pay property taxes for a home
worth under $15,000 or pay income tax if their income is under $3,500 , provided they have
lived in Oregon for more than
10 years.

rely on the best experts in the
business to advise him when he
makes decisions. If I'm elected
governor, I will make sure I have
1Ualified and experienced people
under me," stated Propst.
On the subject of disorders,
Propst felt that "we are sitting
on a powder keg in this country,
and I see these riots and .I'm
sick of it." He said, "If I'm
elected governor I will go down
and make the first arrest myself." "I'm not blaming the students," he went on, "but I blame
the communications gap between
the children in schools and public and industry."
Propst advocated keeping unqualified people of the state and
federal government out of agriculture. Propst said to his knowledge there has not been one
injury by the use of DDT. "If
DDT is taken off the market
there will be 30 million people
who will die from disease," predicted Propst.
At one point in his comments
concerning nerve gas, Propst
directed a remark to candidate
Arthur Pearl of Eugene.
Propst: "The nerve gas coming into Oregon is not lethal, but
is used to temporarily paralyze."
Pearl: "The gas coming in is
highly lethal--a drop can kill
you."
Propst: ''Do you know what
kind of gas is coming in?"
Peal: "Yes. It's GB and VX
types. That's public knowledge."
Propst: ''I was told it was
PANG."

LEADS to be demonstrated
Over 800 administrators and
librarians from throughout Oregon have been invited to· attend
a demonstration of the Library
Experimental Automated Demonstration System (LEADS) on May
22 at the LCC campus.
Don Ownbey, LCC Technical
Services Librarian, is hosting
the d e m on t r at i o n with the
LEADS staff from 9 a.m. to
4 p.m. in the library. LEADS
is the automated library services division of the Or3gon
Total Information System (OTIS)
in Eugene.
The multitude of college, public school, and governmental libraries, plus the bulk of publications that enter library collections each year, puts unrelieved
pressure on the procedures for
acquisitions, cat a 1o gin g, processing, and accounting controls.
Users are demanding speedier
delivery of mate rials. In addition,
there is an estimated shortage
of 100,000 trained librarians in
the United States. As a result,
many library systems are becoming clogged with service demands.
In an attempt to solve these

problems, the LCC library staff
is examining the LEADS services and capabilities. Their
findings will be reported at the
workshop on May 22.
Now in its pilot year of operation, LEADS currently provides
on-line remote access to an expanding integrated data bank of
60,000 bibliographic records.
The system can provide individual file maintenance for each
library by the use of teleprocessing terminals connected to
the OTIS 360/50 computer.
Statewide p art i c i p at ion in
LEADS is anticipated after the
pilot year. In addition to Lane,
libraries participating in LEADS
include Springfield public school
libraries, Lane County Instructional Materials Center, Pleasant
Hill public school libraries, and
Eugene District 4J public school
libraries.
The workshop will include
demonstrations of the broad capabilities of the teleprocessing
terminal, exhibits of reports and
services completed during May,
and a general discussion session
for all those attending.

Tours of artists' studios held May 24.

A tour of the studios of six
local artists has been arranged
by the Maude I. Kerns Art Center for Sunday, May 24, from 1
to 5 p.m.
The charge for the tour will
be $1 for each person, Child
care service is planned. The cost
of this service is 5M per child.
Children may be brought to the
Art Center, 1910 E. 15th St.
Tickets and maps for the tour
will be available there as well
as at each studio.
Studios to be visited include
that of Vernon Witham, a painter,
printmaker and artist who works
in many fields. Witham exhibits
and sells his work throughout
the country. In his studio, located at 2100 Greiner St, he will
be showing examples of his latest work, large ink Drawings.
Laverne Krause, an Associate
Professor in the Fine Arts Department at the University of
Oregon will display demonstrations of printing in her studio
at 3295 16th Avenue West. She
is represented by the Fountain
Gallery in Portland and exhibits
widely, in addition teaching etching and painting.
Carolyn Kranzler, a potter
whose studio is at 3455 Chambers
St., will explain her work. Mrs.
Kranzler, who has a degree in
Painting and Drawing, started to
work in Ceramics in the fall
of 1967 at the Maude Kerns Art
Center. She set up her studio in
1968, and since then has been
producing, exhibiting and selling
pottery.
Professor Jan Zach, Chairman
of the Sculpture Division in the
Art School at the University of
Oregon, will also open his Studio for this tour. Zach is a wellknown scuptor whose work is exhibited widely. Best known locally
is the revolving scupture in the
rotunda at Meier and Frank in
the Vallev River Center. His
Studio is at 1788 East 30th Ave.
