Statement released
concerning Pickering ·
The LCC Board of Education
has released a 21/2 page statement on the procedures it followed in reaching its April 13
decision not to renew the oneyear contract of President Robert Pickering.
The Board release the statement following a special Board
meeting Wednesday night, May
27. The statement was prepared
in response to criticism bysome
LCC district residents that the
Board had not publicly justified
its decision about Pickering.
The text of the statement is
as follows:

Vol. 5 No. 26

4000 East 30th Avenue, Eugene, Oregon 97405

June 2, 1970

In April, 1969 the Board of
Education of Lane Community
College extended an invitation
to Dr. Robert Pickering to become the college's secondpresident. Dr. Pickering and the Board
understood that the period of em ployment would be from July,
1969 to June 30, 1970. Dr. Pickering's contract with the Board
of Education, therefore, expired
by its own terms on June 30,
1970.
The Board of Education first
discussed w it h Dr. Pickering
certain aspects of his leadership in an executive committee
meeting held on Nov. 26, 1969
following a Board meeting. Only
Dr. Pickering and the Board
were present during this meeting. It has always been the policy
of the Board of Education to
discuss personnel matters in a
c Io s e d session. A Register-

Stewart chosen as June graduation speaker
Loran L. ("Stub") Stewart will
be the keynote speaker at LCC's
graduation ceremony on Saturday, June 13 at 2 p.m. The
ceremony will be held in the main
gymnasium in the Health B_!1ildStewart was chosen as the
speaker by the LCC Student Senate.
When asked his thoughts on
continuing a graduation c e re mony, since some schools are
discontinuing it, Stewart said,
"I'm old fashioned enough to
believe it is still desirable, in
a simple form." He indicated
his topic will be A LOOK AT
THE PAST AND A PREVIEW OF
THE 70's, and said he chose
this topic because "I want to
visit and gossip with the kids."
The informality of his speech
will be in keeping with the casual ness of the graduation ceremony

this year.
Stewart, former Legislator
(three terms, 1951, 1953, and
1955), prominent lumberman and
owner of Bohemia Lumber Co. in
Cottage Grove, Oregon, was appointed on April 6 to the Building committee of the Oregon
State Board of Education. This
marked the first such appointment to the Board of Education
since 1929, as the rivalry between the two Oregon universities has been so fierce that
nobody from the Eugene or Corvallis area has served. Stewart
graduated from Oregon State University in 1932 with a Logging
and Engineering degree. His son
graduated from the U of O and
also completed one year at Stanford Business School. Stewart,
59, is also President of the National Forest Products Associa-

Karen Hentze McEldowney, an

Eugene, is the 1970 recipient of
the "professional achievement
award" given annually to the outstanding gra1uate of the LCC den-

Sharon McEldowney

tion and Chairman of the State
Parks and Recreation Advisory
Committee.
Stewart confirmed that he attended a meeting of the Board
of Education in Por tland on Monday May 18 and that the Board
is to have the results of an in- quiry on the campus disruptions
as promised by the Chancellor
that ''he would have his department investigate and report to
the Board, but this should be an
outside independent report--blue
ribbon enough so that the Legislature will give credence to
it."
as a participant in Oregon's
education process, he indicated
that he thinks the community

college movement is good and
hopes it will be '' kept on the
vocational level as it will be
the reservoir for our skilled
workmen and women who are
badly needed."
His opinion of the cause of
the current campus unrest across
the nation was our affluent society, lack of discipline and TV,
among other things.
He stated he would not agree
with free-school methods in general, as discipline is breaking
down, and with it, respect for
law and order.
Three hundred and seventyfour students will graduate from
LCC this term, the largest number in the college's history.

Guard reporter was present. The
presence of a representative
from the news media has also
been a practice of the college
even during executive sessions.
This is to insure the session
will confine itself to personnel
matter only. In the eventthe Board discusses other matters the
reporter is free to publish those
items.
On March 25, 1970 the Board
held another executive committee
meeting and discussed Dr. Pickering's effectiveness. Dr. Pickering was not present because
each Board member desired the
opportunity to explore with each
other how they saw the evolving
situation at the first executive
session on Nov. 26, 1969. The

present. The meeting lasted approximately two ho u rs . The
meeting concluded with the chairman requesting that each Board
member give deep thought to the
situation with all its implications.
On April 1, 1970, again following a Bo a rd meeting, the members met in executive session.
This meeting was in effect a continuation o f t h e meeting he l d
March 25, 1970. Dr. Pickering
was not present. As a result
of these deliberations, (March 25
and April I) the Board unanimously agreed that the Board

would be instructed to meet with
Dr. Pickering and indicate to
him that it was the feeling of
the Board that his contract would
not be renewed. Board members
also agreed that it would be better for the chairman and vicechairman to indicate the Board's
intentions initially rat he r than
requesting the president to meet
with the full Board.
On Saturday, April 4, 1970,
the Board chairman and vicechairman met with Dr. Pickering
and explained t he Board's position on the matter.
On Wednesday, April 8, 1970,
following a bu d g e t committee
meeting, the Board went into
executive session. Dr. Pickering
was present and strenuously objected to the fact that the Board
was not going to extend his contract for a second year. Dr.

Four chosen
by Committee

For the past three weeks, LCC
·has been looking for a new president. It is still looking.
The 11 member screening committ e composed of LCC administrators, faculty and students and two members of the
community, discussed 39 candidates. Of these candidates, ten
were interviewed by the committee and four of the ten selected to be recommended to the
Board. The committee then met
with the Board May 22, to discuss why the four were chosen
and in what order the committee
rated them. Names of the four
candidates have not been released. AU are from within Oregon.
The Board has also interviewed
candidates. a special meeting has
been set for June 3 to discuss
the LCC budget and possibly the
presdential candidates. Primary
qualifications sought in a new
president are experience in administration, leadership and a
philosophy fitting that LCC. If
none of these current applicants
is thought by the Board to fit
the qualifications, others from
out of state may be considered.

'CARE:-Rhet0r"k-·Or R~'ality?

·TLE M'ANJ~.oN C:-¥\MPlJS ·•

••

by Robert L Pickering

LCC was established on solid foundations but
needs, as an instituti')ns, to change in order
to appropriately relate to the dynamics of life
today and those desired and predicted for tomorrow. The reactionary would deplore this and
say LCC should remain as it is. The campus
radical would also deny this and demand instant
change to conform the college to his prejudices,
with hate, violence, and bloodshed as possible
consequences. Somewhere between those two extremes will be a path of reasoned, ordered,
planned change based upon the most real, vital,
and continuing needs of our society.
And what might those needs be? Well, one
could expound at length about this. It seems to
me, however, that LCC has captured the essence
of the great need of man--yesterday, today, and
tomorrow--for LCC is a college that proclaims
CARE. One can criticize this as an oversimplification, a truism, a romantic dream, and so
on but f.11is car-= for all the people who want to
come through the open door is a distinctive
feature that must be retained as the college
changes. Without it, the college would merely
produce technicians, para-professionals and highly skilled men and women functioning somewhere in limbo between a machine mentality and
beastiality.
But care is just so much rhetoric unless accompanied by deeds and procedures that demonstrate the reality of care. This becomes the
challenge of day by day living.. developing the
wisdom and courage to demonstrate this commit-

c~(

ment while learning how to punch a data processing card, clean teeth~ weld ·an angle iron, tie

machine, or write a paper. The kind of care
propounded by LCC is not something separate
from the nitty gritty details and gutlevel decisions of the moment. Rather, it is at the heart
of these actions or it doesn't exist at all.
.You ask how can one care if others about me
don't? They do, of course. The problem is that
they too are scared and have their defenses up.
Care expresses itself in giving. And it's not
necessarily natural to give. One needs to acquire
the kind of commitment that makes it reasonabla
and natural to lose one's self to goals bigger
and better than himself in giving. As one gives
of himself or receives from another some of the
defenses and facades are penetrated. When one
cares and gives one becomes more vulnerable to
the impositions of others. But that's where the
actions is. And life lived at its best requires
the risk of cara.
The choice of a decent world hinges, it seems
to me, on this capacity to care and to live it.
Without it we will neither survive nor be worthy
of survival.
The choice can be made only by individuals.
The choice of our tomorrows is up to you .
I'm glad you have identified with a college that
proclaims that care and grateful for our association. You should know that I am savoring
our many constructive and pleasant times and
look back with some nostalgia on this year together. Let's stay in touch. I care too.

Israel and the Light
by Mark Christensen

making better the chances that the
next "war" will come out with
a different ending.
Nasser, who was chronically
"disordered" by the events of
the 1967 six day war, is so uncertain of himself and his people
that he has turned into a virtual madman.
He seems to not understand the
meaning of "reason" or "logic."
Being blinded by a deep seething
rage, he strikes out, but does not
really know why.
To allow the Russians and EgyEgyptians to extinguish the spark
of Israel would be a most unexcusable m i s t a k e and would
paint a black mark on the souls
of all men for many generations
to come.

DISASTER
by Doris Ewing

At 8:58 Monday morning, May
25, the greatest disaster in LCC
history did (did not) occur when
25 students were (were not) injured when the boiler did (did not)
explode in the kitchen of the Center cafeteria.
The "disaster'' was staged under the direction of nursing instructor Arlene Underhill as a
training drill for the second year
nursing students. The "victims"
were students in the drama department.
At 8:57 Monday morning the
cafeteria buzzed with sounds
of students going to and from
classes, buying snacks, eating,
conversing with friends--a casual, relaxed atmosphere. Aminute later the fire alarm rang, and
the mood changed. For a few
seconds no one moved, voices
quieted and changed in tempo.
The room was c h a r g e d with a
sense of "What's happening? Is
this a fire drill, or what?''
Then a few students near the
door stood up, p i c k e d up their
books and walked outside. Gradually others fo 11 owed. A few
moved aimlessly about the room,
not knowing exactly what was expected of them.
A minute or two later Security
Officer John Miles appeared and
ordered the students outside.
By now a little smoke seeped
into the eating area through tp.e
kitchen doors. A second alarm
sounded. The area on the snack
bar side was now cleared of students, but those sitting on the dining room side of the building ap
parently paid little attention to the
alarm or to the activities going
on. To a casual onlooker, they
seemed to be completely apathetic.
Inside the kitchen, the drama
students sat, crouched or lay on
the floor or wandering about in
varying degrees of s i m u l ate d
shock. They displayed a variety
of theatrically dramatic wounds.
Someone then ca 11 e d Wendy
Westphal at the information desk
in the administration building.
She was to deliver the message
to the nursing department.
At this time the nurses were
in their regular 9'oclock class
waiting for Nursing Department
chairman Mary Fiorentino who
was to lead a study on the adrenal glands.
Wendy opened the classroom
door, saw that Mrs. Fiorentino
wasn't yet there and stepped out.
A minute later Mrs. Fiorentino
walked into class with a worried

look on her face.
The call for help had come.
"We didn't know what to do,"
said one student. "We just sat.
there/'
Mrs. Fiorentino directed half
the class to go immediately to the
cafeteria and the others to get
some first aid supplies.
At the kitchen door, the first
of the nurses stopped and stared
at the combination of bod i e s,
broken glass, smoke, and spilled
grease. Within seconds, the
nurses were at work.
One victim lay with a deep wound
in his abdomen. another sprawled
face down on the floor, apparently
lifeless. One girl had a huge
wound near her eye. other victims suffered from broken legs
or arms, numerous cuts, internal
injuries or burns.
The nurses worked quietly.
As each patient was treated, he
was taken to the ambulence area
in the fire lane between the Center and Forum. (Both the Eugene ambulance service and the
fire department had been warned
in advance to disregard any
emergency call from LCC at this
time.)
"Watch your step,it's slippery,"
cautioned a nurse. Aprons were
strewn on the kitchen floor where
grease had been spilled. Now
the instructors stood back to
allow the students to develop their
own leadership.
A dazed student called, "Charlie, where are you?"
A girl with bruised and cut
face slumped against a movable
cart on which were piled freshly
trimmed roast ready for the oven.
Two nurses struggled to get a
victim to walk. "Get up ... sit
now ... atta boy, you can do it ... "
When asked what had happened,
one of the victims said, "I don't
know.
There was this noise,
and a bunch of glass breaking.
It was really wierd."
Another victim with a head injury still moped about aimlessly
as he looked for Charlie. Another, not visibly injured but in
shock succeeded in getting in the
way. One tried to be helpful by
handing out towels and blankets
"but nobody wanted me to help."
In less than twenty minutes
all the victims had been removed
from the kitchen area. A half
hour later the evidence was gone.
The disaster was over.
And Charlie had been found.
When the first alarm sounded,
a few students , like Doug Chambers, said they thought the alarm
was "genuine". Others said they

"figured it was just a practice."
Rosa Button said, ''when I
saw the nurses lay this person
on the cement and then go off
and leave him, I knew it was a ·

fake."

One of the cooks said, "It
was a surprise to me. I thought
it was a fire drill."
The disaster had been in the
planning st age s for about two
months. Mrs. Underhill had received t raining in the Sacred
Heart "disaster" program last
year and had helped with emergency treatment after a bus-car
collision several years ago on the
freeway near Cottage Grove.
The nursing students recently
finished a study of disaster techniques as they apply to state,
county and local hospital facilities and needs. Donald Brieger,
Deputy Director of E me r g e n c y
Service of Lane County, and William McIntire, Director of the
Emergency Health Service for the
state of Oregon, d i re c t e d the
classes.
•
About two weeks ago cafeteria
manager Merlin Ames, drama
department · chairman Ed Ragozzino and the drama students had
been asked to participate in the
disaster plans.
To orient the drama students,
one of the nursing staff instructed
them in victims' reactions to different injuries. Then, Monday
morning before the accident, the
students received a final briefing on the details of the response.
The injuries were make to look
realistic with the use of theatrical
make-up such as pancro blood and
mortician's wax. Some of the
make-up jobs were expert enough
to fool the nurses (despite the
purpling effect flourescent lights
in the kitchen had on the ''blood'').
"The fire alarm was a bonus,"
said Ames. "It went on when
the smoke from the grill reached
the alarm."
At a joint meeting of the nurses
and drama students immediately
after the disaster, there was mutual respect for their respective
performances. Ragozzino said it
was a case of one group inspiring
the other to do the best job pos.sible.
The nurses were really concerned about one victim who has
such a n at u r a 11 y weak pulse
"that my doctor has trouble finding it." That, and her flushed
face, nearly convinced one of the
instructors that here was one
drama student who had overplayed the part.
The students had been warned
not to ''break character" until

officially released. "I didn't see
even one that did,"said one nurse.
One young man who was treated
by a male nurse said, "I fainted
but he outbluffed me. He gave me.
mouth to mouth resuscitation."
In evaluating the exercise, Mrs.
Underhill said the victims view
of the situation was p r i m a r i 1y
limited to their own problems
while the nurses looked at the
group as a whole out of which
care was given on a priority of
need.
Instructor Jan Kinman said, "I
feel it's been a good learniJ!g ex
perience. Some realized right
away it wasn't a real accident,

Job."
a major criticism was the apparent lack of leadership. Because the instructors were on the
scene, the students waited for
them to issue orders.
As nursing student Bea Wallace
said, "There were four instructors there. Naturally we waited
for them to begin."
Once the students realized they
had to take charge, "I could see
leadership emerging,'' said Mrs.
Underhill. "I'm pleased with t~e
ingenuity of the student nurses in
improvising equipment and materials in treating the victims. It
was a successful training program."

in the self defense class as
they practiced kicking their imaginary opponents with full force, their bare feet flat toward

I would think them a formidable group. But of course this was

"Dreams ,and Meditatio'f,,.,
topic of May ·25 talk

"Dreams and Meditation" was
the subject of Herbert B. Puryear who spoke on campus May
25. Puryear, a Ph.D. and Clinical Pyschologist, is the Director of Education for the Association for Research and Enlightenment (~R~).
Puryear bases his lectures on
readings by Edgar Cayce, a
a psychic who began working as
a diagnostician in 1902, after he
discoYe red h is ability. C a y c e
analy:ied 8,,000 patients and correctly identified their illnesses.
His diagnoses were later backed
up by physicians. The last 20
years of his life were spent in
answering philosophical questions about God and the nature
of Man. Cayce explained how to
meditate and to analyze dreams
and also spoke of "previous existence" or "reincarnation."
In the book "The Sleeping Prophet," Cayce is identified as
having predicted the cure for
cancer; two world wars and the
years they would begin and end;
the death of JFK; racial strife
in America; and hundreds of
other events that came to pass
long after his death in 1945.
The following events have yet
to happen: the destruction of
most ')f Los Ang,}las; San Francisco, and New York (he didn't
specify the cause); the end of
communism in Russia with a liberated Soviet Union in alliance
with the USA becoming ''the hope
of the world," and Christianization and Of;;nocratization of
Red China.
Puryear said that our minds
are "like icebergs, 70% is below the surface." And that we
must open up our subconscious.
We are all potentially in contact
with each other via the mind,
but we cut ourselves off. We have
built up barriers between each
other, and to commu:iicate with
God, or meditate, we must obey
the first commandment - "love
God." We must love one another
and we will communicate. But we
must not love so we benefit and
must "live our love."

about.
Dr. Puryear first became interested in Edgar Cayce's work
in 1951 when Meredith Ann, now

Sugrue. In 1953 they spent three
weeks at ARE headquarters in

School weeks. Since then he has
lectured and taught for the ARE

Dr. Puryear received his B.A.
in psychology from Stanford University and his M.A., Ph.D.,
and Clinical Internship from the
University of North Carolina. His
graduate theses were studies of
dreams and dreaming. He also
received a Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship from the National Institute of Mental Health

To meditate and comm·nicate
with God, one has to remove the
built-up barrier_s, but not through
the use of drugs or controlled
breathing exercises like yogis
use. You must express youroneness with God by living love, not
just a few hours a week, but
all your life.

<:).

Puryear said that our physical
bodias are simply vehicles, manifestations of our subconscious.
The body is one more barrier
between communication with God.
Everything in our world is a
manifest,i.tion of God; ''electricty
is really the power of God."

"Dreams are really our contacts with God and we are observing our inner life through
our dreams," stated Puryear.
When you don't remembllr your

you dream five different dreams

COinR'l'itfee studies new grading system •
.....-............. ~

by Sue Haase
A new grading system may be
in effect at Lane Fall Term.
The question is, what will it be?
The current grading system
consists of an A,B,C,D, or F
grade for each course taken.
Students also have the option of
withdrawing from a class. With
this system the student has both
his successes and failure recorded. One of the problems of
this system is that in order to
have the necessary grade point
average the student must get an
A to offset a D. One student
quit school with 1/2 a term left.
After a few years he decided to
come back, when he did he had
to take 90 hours to raise his
grade point enough to graduate.
Seven new grading systems
have been examined by the faculty committee on Grading Proposal, consisting of eight faculty members: Jim Snow, Math;
Ron Metzger, Social Science; Pat
Fraleigh, Counseling; Marv Winger, Automotive; Delta Sanderson, English; Terry Strong,
Paradental; Jack Carter, Counseling; and Larry Murray, Special Training. The proposals being considred were taken from
several schools which have tried

Senate reiects resolution
to support PANG issue

by Jeff Powell
Discussion and temperament ran
from hot to cold for about 45
minutes at a Student Senate meeting Thursday, May 21, whenAPW
presented a resolution to the senate asking the student body to publicly endorse and support People
Against Nerve Gas (PANG)'s
stand against the proposed nerve
gas shipment to Oregon.
The campus organization of APW
had been working the previous
two weeks supporting local civic
groups and the congressional delegati on who were working to get
a bill into congress to stop and
detoxi fy the sh i p me n t. In submitting the resol ution, a PW was
hoping that the additional publicized suppor t from LCC mi ght
add mor e weight to the campaign.
Response came from ..;>ractically

Board Room. Oregon Representa ti v e and LC C administrator

campaign, spoke briefly, encour-

will be allowed the option to retake the course. All courses attempted would be recorded in
school records for V.A. purposes
etc.
One of the reasons members
gave for their approval of this
system is that it stresses success. One members commented
that LCC is set up to take all students, regardless of ability, and
those "who have for some reason not been successful in High
School or have been reluctant
to attempt education beyond High
school." With a policy like the
above, this member feels that

Page " 5

success, not failure, should not
be stressed. He felt the student who • wasted time will be
"shaken" by the fact that he will
have to retake the course. Some
members also feel that if a student attempts to take engineering,
for example, but cannot make the
math, he should not keep that F
on his records if he chooses to
try a different major.
Those opposing the new system say that the student might
not have enough incentive if he
does not have to worry about an
F grade. The threat of an F keeps
the students in class and working harder.

John C. White hired
·for counseling position

John c. White, a 36-year-old
_ counseling specialist, has been
hired as LCC's new Director of
Counseling. The position is currently filled by Acting Director
William Wright.
White is presently the Director
of Counseling at Kirkwood Community College in Cedar Rapids,
Iowa. According to Dean of Student L S. Hakanson, Whiate has
''a strong interest in helping
overcome educational barriers
for all kinds of people," and
was chosen for his experience
as head of counseling in a community college similar to Lane.
Following an extensive nationwide s e arch, White visited the
LCC campus for an intensive
eight hour interview by Student
Services personnel. He was recommended as one of two candictates by the screening committee.

.I

White has served at Kirkwood Community College for
three years. Prior to that experience, he counseled for the
Job Corps for two years and ,
worked as a teacher-counselor
for Iowa City Community Schools
for six years.
In 1963 he was awarded his
Master's Degree in Education
and Counseling at the University
of Iowa, where he has done additional hours of study in his
field.
The new Director begins his
work effective July 1 at an annual
salary of $15,889. He succeeds
Dr. Kenneth Hills, who resigned
to accept a position as Director
of Student Services and Community Co 11 e g e General Education for the Oregon State
Board of Education.
White, who is married, is the
father of four children.

is due. They won't get it though
because they can't squeeze blood
out of a turnip." she remarked.
But she went on to say, "the
great thing is that we have the
support of the area Medical Society, the Public Health Service
and the backing of the general
public. Population control is a
big issue today. Everybody is
getting interested. Our volunteer
workers include several doctor's
wives, the Mayor's wife and a
registered nurse."
Much of Mrs. Plesner's and
other volunteer workers' time is
spent speaking to schools and

private organizations. Most of
the engagements are handled by
the Speaker's Bureau which is
a group of qualified professional
men who are available to fill
speaking requests.
'' Our organization now has an
interested group at the U of O
who are interested in setting up
a similar organization. Also several LCC student nurses have
expressed a desire to have such
a clinic at Lane," S'.l.:_; Mrs.
Plesner.
Within a month, though, you
won't find Planned Parenthood
in its usual location of 16 E.
Broadway. They havebeenforced

to move to the Empire Building
with the Urban Renewal agency
because the downtown mall construction involves the demolishing of their present offices.
Planned Parenthood is a practical and needed approach to our
crowding communities, but Sharon Plesner and other volunteers
don't feel like it's a one sided
job.
"I receive a great deal of satisfacation from working with
the poeple that come to use seeking help. I guess it's the fact
that I get to meet so many good
and friendly people. They help me
as much as I help them."

"Some days we have up to five
abortion referral cases back to
back," said the energetic Sharon P 1es n e r of the Planned
Parenthood organization._ ''We
even had one elderly lady come
in and ask where she could find
a prospective male companion."
P 1an n e d Parenthood fills a
large number of needs and provides answers within the realm
of sexual problems in the Lane
County area. Preventing unwanted children through preventive
medicine is their basic goal.
"We work very closely with
the Family Planning Clinic. We
are basically an education service," said the three-year .veteran of Planned Parenthood.
Women, both married and single, continually approach Planned Parenthood with emotional
problems as well as the need for
preventive contraception. These
women are referred to the existing public agencies in the community. Many of the women are
seeking advice . about an unwanted pregnancy they are confronted with. Nearly 20% of the calls
iri April were women seeking abortion help.
"We take all the time needed
in counseling a woman with an
unwanted pregnancy, whether inside or outside of marriage,"
Mrs. Plesner went on to say.
"There are a variety of reasons
why women come to us. Some
feel like they have to be preg-nant all the time. That is the
only time they feel feminine.
Some feel like they are getting

Toy donors
thanked
Who is the mysterious benefactor who has been leaving children's play equipment in the play
yard of the Child Care Center??
Mrs. Jill Heilpern, Director
of the center, would like to thank
those anonymous donors who
leave toys for the children. Tuesday morning, May 19, someone
left two wagons and a tricycle
there. The toys are in fine condition.
Mrs. Heilpern said the children really enjoy the toys, but
she is wondering who the donors are. ''We appreciate the
nice items, but we have no idea
or clue as to who is giving us
the toys." She added that "we
are v e r y much interested in
knowing who is being so nice.

back at their parents or husband
by becoming pregnant. It's these
people we need to help."
Mo re and more unmarried
teen-age girls approach Planned Parenthood counselors weeking birth control help. Out of 100
calls in a month, usually 50%
of them are single teen-age or
college girls. Much of the time
spent between the girls and the
counselor is dealing with emotional problems that most of
the girls haven't been able to
confide to anyone. If the girl is
really emotionally upset, they
try to get help for her from
the other Public Health agencies.
If the girl is emtionally sound
and set on getting birth control,
Planned Parenthood helps her
by making an appointment through
the Medical Society with a qualified doctor who is willing to help
the girl without involving her
parents in the situation.
The "Morning-After" pill is
also available, but is not dispensed at the Planned Parenthood
office. The caller, however, will
be referred to a doctor where
he can help her if she sees
him within a 72-hour period.
"It's our responsibility to know
which doctors favor birth control and which don't. We don't
want to offend the doctor or the
girl," said Mrs. Plesner. "We
only refer unmarried cases to
doctors who don't feel morally
wrong about giving birth control
assistance. Once a doctors starts
delivering babies of 13 and 14year old girls, they usually begin to g i v e t h e p i 11 s to these
girls," she said.
other problems arise that produce several phone calls daily
involving women who want to
know: "what do I do, I missed
a pill!"
"We are limited as to what
advice can be given," said Mrs.
P 1e s n e r regarding the calls.
"There are somethings we cannot be responsible for. In most
cases we call a doctor for advice or refer them to a doctor."
Who finances Planned Parenthood? The fact is the badly needed organization is strictly on a
non -profit basis. All funds are
donated and the workers are
volunteer with the exception of
Mrs. Plesner who is a part-time
paid worker but puts in a full
work load every week.
"We stay in business from
month to month, because money
is so tight," explained Mrs. Plesner.

Learning is a shift in perception. This shift is not always
an easy one for the learner, but
an effective teacher can make it
less painful through his enthusiasm, humor, and concern. However, an effective teacher does
not attempt to anesthesize his
students with easy answers; he
demands honest. effort, and he
cannot be placated with good penmanship, memorization, or the
mindless parroting of other
people's ideas. He is flexible and
fair, but, above all, he is intellectually honest. Pa u 1a Lutz,
Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Lane Community College, is such a teacher.
Mrs. Lutz is always interested
in a new id(ia or a new approach
to teaching. If fact, she collects
ideas as some people collect art
objects, adding only the best and
most stimulating to her lecture
material. Consequently, every
lecture she gives is like aneightcourse meal: enjoyable to consume but difficult to digest. Perhaps the ideas she presents are
so stimulating because they are
never static: her lectures are in
a constant state of revision, and
she is not afraid to change her
mind or her methods.
Furthermore, Mrs. Lutz cares
enough about her students to be
fair. Her tests are always challenging but they are never unjust: difficult essay questions are
graded leniently; answers which
show independent thinking are
given extra points; and the grades
are put on a curve. Also, she
reviews the test imm,:diately-while the students still rememb0r
the questions and care about the
answers--and she returns the
papers promptly. Her fairness
also extends to her dealings with
students. She listens patiently to
their ideas and opinions 1 sharpening the good ideas with constructive criticism and pointing
out errors in the logic of the
bad ones, and she never resorts to
sarcasm or ridic:ul~.
But, perhaps even more impor-

tant than fairness in a teacher,
is intellectual honesty. And Mrs.
Lutz demands honesty of her
subject, of herself, and of her
students. Because she does not
feel that the discipline of An thropology is sacrosanct, she
can point out dishonesty or errors
in ant hr op o 1o g i c a I theories.
Moreover, she asks students to
present her with negative evidence against which to test her
own theories, and, if the evidence is sound, she accepts it
and uses it. Because of her honesty, she cannot be bluffed, nor
is she impressed by anything but
performance, and she fosters the
same attitude of honesty among
her students.
Mrs. Lutz, then, is a highly
effective teacher who teaches her
students as much about fairness
and honesty as about anthropol ogy. At the beginning of the school
year, she said that she intended
to make her students think. That
was an understatement. As one

of her students, I often felt as
though she had lifted the lid of
my skull and stirred my brains
with a French wisk. However,
when my mind finally stopped
reverberating, I discovered that
she had not only made me think,
but that she had permanently
changed my way of thinking. And
that is what learning is.

Summer Term

After petitions, meetings and
several weeks, the staff has finally gotten a separat?. lounge.
Center 221, currently a staffstudent lounge, was approved by
the administration as a staff
lounge and conference room effective Summer Term.
This room will be set aside
for eating, taking a break, talk
or browsing in a proposed library section. The lounge should
also help solve crowded cafeteria
problems.
The staff has been asking for
a lounge since February of this
year. After the first petition,
the administration decided on
use of 221 as a staff-student
lounge. The last poll taken indicated 30% of the faculty, as
well as many of the classified
staff, felt a need for some sort
of lounge. Staff Association President Jed Merrill cited a weakened morale and a need to have
a place to get away from the office and classroom.

Instruction Ge r a 1d Rasmussen
made the prediction of 350 FTE
students this summer.
The 261 sections being offered
this coming term constitute 31.9%
of the total of 839 sections offere in the Fall Term. All departments except two will be offering courses in the sumrm~r
session; both day and night classes will be open for students.
Because of the nature of some
of the occupational courses, some
of the courses in this catagory
will not be available this summer. As a result there will be
more college transfer courses
than occupational.
There are also several remedial courses being offered this
s i mm•~ r to help prepare interested people for college transfer or occupational courses.
Although the LCC budget was
defeated in the last election, no
custs are to be made in the coming
term schedule. Scheduling Secretary Judy P ierce said, "We
are going ahead with the summer
:schedule as planned."

Instructors attend LAPS session
Mary Carlisle, LCC Textile
instructor, and Gladys Belden,
head of the Home Economics
Department, attended a special
session on the OSU campus, May
16, on Learning Activity Packets (LAPS).
Laps a re concentrated package s of information f o r indiv id u a 1i z e d instruction. And
LCC's Home Ee Department will
be working on their packets to
supply a state-funded mobile unit. T"ne unit will tour outlying
areas, such as Elmira, and allow people who lack funds to
attend school to use the packets.
The department hopes to motivate these people to learn and
and perhaps to return to school.
Sp e c i a 1 counsultant for the
learning session was Dr. Richard
V. Jones, Professor of Education
at Stanislaus State College, Turlock, California. He has been
preparing LAPS for some time.
Jones believes that this method
of individualized instruction is
much better than what is being
d o n e t o d av in public schools.
"Rather than providing for the
learning needs of each student,
the segmented and rigidly en-

forced age-grades kind of school
organization tends to inhibit the
learning of students. The need
has been emphaized for a more
individualized approach to present teaching." And LAPS is an
attempt to bridge the gap.

popular music at a low volume.
One room is equipped with donated medical supplies, including
the customary doctor's examining table.
The downstairs also has a kitchen and another room which contains desks and files for the directors. The upstairs has three

was 22 seconds, which is only
a tenth of a second off his own
school record.
Another individual standout for
the Titans was Rod Mooers. Mooers, who gained AU-American
honors last week with his thirdplace pole vault finish in the
NCAA Junior College Championships held in Garden City, Kansas, won both the pole vault and
120 high hurdles. Mooers cleared 14'6" to edge Mt. Hood's Rick
Taylor in the pole vault along';
with breaking his old school record of 15.4 by gliding over the
~igh hurdles with a time of 15.2.

055 Olympics
held May 24

Each year the Oregon State
Spec i a 1 Olympics is held for
handicapped and mentally retarded children. The children
participate in such events as
standi ng long jump, 50-yard dash,
softball throw, running long jump,
high jump, 300-yard run, and 440yard relay.
Children from Pearl Buck Center in Eugene came to LCC
for assistance in preparing for
this track and field meet, held
in Portland on May 24. Several
students from Lane, including
men and women physical education majors and members of
the women's track team, worked with the children. Kris Havercroft was in charge of getting students to help each day,
and seeing that the children received assistance. The children came to Lane for about a
six week period preparing for
the meet. Among those helping
were Patti Lewis, Lavada Barber, Kathy Cole, Peggy Bartholomew, and Ann Mattson.
There were 26 youngsters from
Pearl Buck Center entered.
The results:
Running Long jump: Jim Ward,
first.
50 yd. dash: Virginia Reark,
first; Kim Larson, fourth; Rick
Smith, fifth.
Standing Long Ju mp: Rick
Smith, second; Joan Pfreham,
third; Virginia Roark. fourtho
25 yd. swim: Rick Jones, third;
Gene Richardson, fourth.
300 yd. run: Jim Ward, third.
Softball throw: Bill Houck and
Mike Kilmer, third; Gene Richardson, fourth.

°Lane's Doyle Kenady was clipped by Umpqua's Steve Petrie
in the discus competition, one
of two final events held on Friday. But after a night's rest the
powerful Titan came back Saturday to set a new conference record in the shot put. Kenady
broke Treasure Valley's John
Lewis' mark of 50'11" with an
incredible toss of 54'4 1/4".
Lane's javelin crew, consisting of Don Van Arnam, Butch
Hathorn, and George Slay, added further points to the Titan
cause by finishing second, third,
and fourth in that event. First
place went to Mount Hood's Doug
Vickery with his winning toss
of 211' -8 1/2".
But not everything went as
well for the Titans. Lane's high
jumper Dennis Conley soared to
a lifetime best of 6'6" only to
be beaten by Mt. Hood's Larry
Luehrs in a jump-off for first:
place after both athletes failed
to clear 6'7" .•
Luehrs, who was selected by
the coaches as the athlete of
the meet, bettered two fine performances by Titan Dave Wise.
Friday Wise leaped 46' 4 1/2"
in the triple jump only to be
bettered by Luehrs' 46'6 1/2"
try. Then in the long jump competition held Saturday, Wise sailed 23' 3 3/4" which was only
good for second place as Luehrs
bested Wise's jump by 2 1/2
inches.

Women's team
takes third
May 22 and 23 Lane's women's tennis team attended the
Northwest Community Co 11 e ge
tournament in Washington. The
tournament was hosted by Everett Community College.

won first place honors in second singles. Barbara Ackerman
placed third in third singles.
Kathy Cole and Judy Moorhouse
were fourth in doubles. Also in

L.CG to gr:aduate first nurses

in ceremon ies Saturday , June 13

LCC will graduate its first
nursing class June 13.
That graduation will mark the
conclusion of a two-year trial
nursing curriculum that started
September, 1968, under the direction of Mrs. Mary Fiorentino,
head of LCC's first nurse's training program. Thirty nurses, including three men, will receive
Associate of Science Nursing Degrees.
On May 6, 7 and 8, two representatives of the Oregon State
Board of Nursing returned to LCC
to approve and grant final accreditation to the nursing program and grant an official endorsement from the State of
Oregon for LCC's first graduating nurses. Before any nursing
school may graduate students, the
school must meet state requirements which LCC did when the
State Board of Nursing approved
the initial program in 1968 and
granted final approval to the
curriculum in May.

Donna Monkman, Executive
Secretary for the Oregon State
bOard of Nursing, and Miss Marvelu Fisher, Educational Consultant for the Board, spent the
three days talking with Mrs.
Fiorentino, teachers, and students and examining how LCC's

at its May 13 meeting, that it struction with the State Departon environment
A speech by United Nations
Secretary-General U Thant, in
which he called for the creation
of a global authority to meet the
challenges of the environment,
was presented over educational
television stations Tuesday, May
26. The address, titled "Human
Environment and World Order,"
keynoted the University of Texas
International Ex-Students conference May 14.
In his talk the Secretary-General made an analogy between the
recent return of Apollo 13 and the
current global c r is is of human
environment. "Now we face a
rapidly increasing imbalance between the life-sustaining systems
of the earth and the demands
which its inhabitants put upon it.
This is an unprecedented challenge to all earthpeople here and
now. If we fail to meet that
challenge, it could become an unthinkable disaster for our children."
He expressed his hopes for suc_
cess of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment set to meet in Stockholm
in 1972 , and mentioned the work
of many organizations and governments throughout the world
that are now trying to set standards in some areas. "If effective measures are to be taken
in time, we need something new-and we need it speedily--aglobal
au tho r it y with the support of
agreements of government and
of other powerful interests, which
can pull together all the piecemeal efforts now being made and
fill the gaps ... for the task of saving the environment, nothingless
than a new step toward world
order will do," he said.

meet for dinner on April 13, 1970
to further explore this matter.
This meeting was held and a
s e r i o us discussion ensued with
Dr. Pickering that lasted at least
three hours. Dr. Pickering was
then asked to leave, and the Board
discussed the case for another
two hours, after which Dr. Pickering was asked to return, and
he was informed that the Board
s t i 11 unanimously felt that his
contract should not be renewi:)j.,.
In each of the meetings the
Board's decision was unanimous
and the representative of the news
media was present. Each member of the Board of Education
comes f r-0 m dive rs e backgrounds, communicates with different segments of the c o m munity, and lives in representative geographical areas of the
education district.

On or about April 14, 1970
Dr. Pickering released this information to the Register-Guard.
Pickering declined to comm?nt
on the statement and told the Register-Gaurd Thursday, May 28,
"This is astatem~ntbythe Board
of Education. I must reserve
my comments at this time."
Some of the same persons who
appeared and spoke at the May
13 meeting renewed their dem:rnds at the May 2'1 meEting for
an explanation from the Board on
the specific reasons for not renewing Pickering's contract. The
statement only dealt, however,
with the procedures and not with
specific reasons. The Board said

could not commi·mt publicly on
these reasons because they involved "personal matters" which
have historically been kept confidential by the Boar j.
One of the resients, Mrs. Floyd
Hulegaard of Eugene, said petitions were being cir~ulated in
the commu.1ity calling for an
investigation of the Board's action by the State Boar J of Education in Salam. '' After we get
that sent ,. and if then n :J commHtee is sent her,:: to investigate," she said, "ther,:: will simply hav2 to be recall petitions
prepared."
Carrol DtBroekert, Associate
Superintendent for Pub 1i c In-

ment of Education in Salem, said
that ther<:! is no pr.ecedent for
the State BoarJ to launch an
investigation into a personnel
matter at the r ·::!quest of a citizens group. He said the Boar:.l
has "no real legal jurisdi ction"
in such matters within the community college system, although
he added "That dof:sn't r •!le out
citizens from coming to the Stata
Board.''
DfJB:-:,ek:-!rt said that State Board policy pr'Jhibits it from becoming involved in such matters
unless the locally-elected Board
of Directors of the school formally requests such intervention.

In the April 13, 1970 discussion with Dr. Pickering it was
also unanimously agreed that Dr.
Pickering would have every opportunity to make a transition
from the Lane Communitypresidency to his next employment and
that publication of the Board's
decision in the news media would
not come from fhe Board but
would come from Dr. Pickering
himself at a time and place that
he through appropriate.
Contrary to published accounts
of this matter Dr. Pickering was
not "fired." The firing would
be the termination of the employee at some time during his
contractual period of employment. The Board of Education agreed only that his contract,
which expired by its own terms,
would not be renewed.

Torch sportswriter has troubles
by Dave Harding
When one begins to write, there
are many ways in which the
writer can write, and several
styles to accommodate the writing. Some writing can be open,
some closed, and some personalo
Such is the case of my story.
It's personal--a personal narrative if you like.
The narrative I am going to
write is recent. It happened only
two weeks ago, and I learned
quite a bit from my experience.
This narrative is, in a sense,
a little different from most other
experiences I have had, for when
this happened, a whole different
feeling came across my heart
than from the others.
The scene was Griffin Park
in Salem, and the event was a
baseball game between Lane and
Chemeketa Community College.
In the fifth inning, I was hit
in the face with a pitched ball,
and because of the inmact, I
was knocked to the groupi;t immediately, conscious - but half
out of my mind.
Because of the bleeding in my
nose, and blurriness in the left
eye, I was taken to Memorial
Hospital in Salem.
X-rays revealed a broken nose,
and the sight in my eye was steadily leaving me.
While I was in the hospital,
Lane rampaged to an 18-0 victory, and after the team showered
and ate, they stopped by the hospital to say hello and everything
that you say to a disabled teammate, and then they left for home.
That night the doctor put eye

patches over both my eyes so
I could get as much rest as
possible.
Bedridden, 60 m i I e s fro m
home, and "blind," I had some
time to do a little thinking about
baseball, and my thoughts were
about some of the guys on the
team.
After all of the years I have
p I aye d baseball, the different
personalities I have met, and
the different teams I have played for, I have never felt more
"togetherness" on a ballclub than
the unity on the LCC Titan baseball team.
The next day after my injury,
I was laying in my hospital room
"blind" and bored.
That afternoon as I was laying still, I heard a little scuffling of the feet, and all of a
sudden, half of the team was
in my room.
At that moment, a special feeling crossed my heart-- not for
me, but for the guys on the team.
Heading home on the bus after
the Chemeketa game, the guys
on the team took up a collection,
and the next day they bought me
a card and a sweater, and brought
it up to Salem that afternoon.
To me, that is something that
I will always remember. They
traveled 60 miles on their own
time just to see an injured team mate f o r no m o r e t h an ten
minutes, and give him a getwell card and a sweater.
That is one of the best examples of "togetherness" I have
ever seen, and to me, a personal feeling for my teammates
that I will always remember.

Allan Gillespie's first pitch into
centerfield for a home run. Gillespie was pressed into mound
duty when the Blue Bandits
scheduled starting pitcher, Carl
My r i c k, along with teammates
Bob Schultz· and Dave Harding,
failed to show up for the game.
In the second inning the Beavers
upped their lead to 2-0. But
after that it was all Blue Bandits as Gillespie held the Furcarriers scoreless the rest of
the way.

H.arper's Beavers dump
intramural softball rivals
by Bob Barley
Steve Harper's Beavers swept
two games last week in intramural softball action. The two
wins boosted the Beaves' bestof-seven series record to 2-1.
In last Tuesday's action, May
19, the Beavers capitalized on
numerous Blue Bandits' errors in
jumping out to a commanding 14-!>
fifth inning lead. The Blue Bandits came back to cut the deficit
to 16-12 before time ran out.
The _winning pitcher for the

Beavers was Warren Harper.
Harper inherited the mound duties when Beaver pitcher-coach
Steve Harper failed to appear
at game time. Carl Myrick, who
gave up but two earned runs, was
tagged for the defeat.
In Thursday's clash, May 21,
the Beavers gave the Blue Bandits a 12-3 whipping, dispite the
fact that they were shorthanded.
Steve Harper, who is now 1-1
in series action, picked up the
win while Craig Widmer, 1-1,

LCC Senator aids MeXiccin:Ame"ricans.

by Jon Haterius
Omar Barbarossa, an LCC
student of Mexican ancestry who
was elected student Senator this
term, is now starting efforts to
give voice to Mexican-Americans
iri the Northwest.
Barbarossa is vitally c on cerned with helping MexicanAmericans (Chicanos) by helping organize the Northwest Mexican-American Union for Political
and Education Adv;rncement. A
spokesman for Oregon' s Mexican -Americans, he is working
with other Mexican-Americans in
Idaho and Washington to "give
Chicanos a voice in society."
Chicanos are a minority group,
observed Barbarossa. "In Oregon there are less than 30,000
Mexican-Americans, but these
people who do not have a strong
goice .in society should be represented and have a voice." This
is what the new Chicano organization that started this Fall is
all about.
Barbarosa attended the Oregon Community College Association convention early this May
and suggested the association
form an ad-hoc committee within
OCCA to find ways of representing and giving a voice within
OCCA to the Mexican-Americans
enrolled in community colleg-es
in the state and providing education to this segment and all
minority groups. As a result
of Barbarossa's suggestion,
there is now an ad-hoc committee working within OCCA to
investigate avenues of education
for Mexican, Negro and all ethnic and economic minorities ,
Ther8 ara 15 million MexicanAmericans in America. The re
a re more Chicanos attending
c om mu nit y colleges than fouryear colleges and universities
and m o re are attending every
year. Barbarossa believes that
representation and education of
Chicanos and all ethnic and economic minorities at the community college level is very important and becoming more so
as more minority people seek
self-improvement and education.
The attack on the problems of
this minority group, according
to Barbarossa) is in four areas:
1) Education of the "silent ma•jority"to the problems such as
inadequate living conditions and
lack of adequate finances to improve themselves, of the "Forgotten minority." 2) Education
of the Mexican-Americans so
they may obtain jobs and earn
an adequate Ii vi n g . 3) Rep re.:.
se!1tation of Chicanos in
politics, so they have a voice
in the working of government.
4) Economic improvement by way
of better jobs and higher paying
jobs.
It is a job of education and
politics, then, that Barbarossa is
concentrating his efforts on to
better the lives of the "forgotten
minority" in the Northwest. "We
are centering our efforts on high
schools and community colleges
in Oregon, Idaho and Washington.
Many of the Chicano high school
students are dropping-out and we

are trying to encourage them to gro plight with that of the Chistay in and to continue on into canos. "We share the samepr,)bcommu:iity colleges." Yet, a- lems as the Negro, but we feel

While many students at Lane
are giving thought to their final
exams and to plans for the coming summer, students attending
under the G.I. Bill have an additional concern.
According to the Veterans Administration, all veterans attending LCC under the G.L Bill must
return their certificate of attendance cards during the last full
month of this semester to receive their final check and, in
addition, to be automatically reenrolled under the G.L Bill next
semester.
The VA explained that VApayments are computerized and the
computers are programmed to
prepare the final checks only
after the attendance cards are
received.
Since final checks do not arrive
until most students have left the
campus, the VA reminded veterans to be sure to make arrange-
